STRENGTH OF THE EARTH.. EXALTED RHINO KNIGHT!
PRIDE OF THE FOREST.. EXALTED STAG KNIGHT!
MAJESTY OF THE SEAS.. EXALTED DOLPHIN KNIGHT!
NOBILITY OF THE LIGHT.. EXALTED LION KNIGHT!

From within the earth the might Rhino rose. The Black and Silver beast with the Golden horn charging forth from deep beneath the surface, charging forward through mountains and ruined buildings alike! Leaping into the air, the Beast became the Knight of which it was named. It's body split around the mid-section. The back half twisted around, it's back and hindquarters folding down to become powerful legs and feet which slid the mech along the ground as it landed. Thunder, lightning, all sounded and flashed behind the Mech as it's upper half folded out into view. The Chest of the Beast split open, the two halves becoming thick forearms with large silver fists. While the head split straight down the middle to form the shoulder armor of the great Knight. Leaving the horn atop the knight armored head rising from between. And the Great Mech skidded itself to a stop, beating his fists together before roaring into the skies above causing explosions of rocks and earth to sound all around it!

From the Forests surrounding the City a great call sounded. Within the wooded green a great Stag took a drink from the stream, but lifted it’s head upon hearing the call. Bounding through the woods, charging around trees, the great Beast rang out and leapt into the air to change! All four legs folded into themselves as the Beast split itself open. The bottom half becoming the long powerful legs meant for running and leaping over straight brute force. The upper half of the Green and Gold mecha becoming the long arms with large gauntlets and golden hands opening before forming fists again. And the head. Sliding down to protect the chest. The antlers slipping back to frame the emerging head from between. Sliding to a stop, the great Stag Knight raised a single hand skyward, calling upon his Exalted Staff! The long weapon was Green, Silver, and Gold. Topped with a Stag’s head to match his animal form. And with weapon in hand, called into the skies above causing the forests to roar and call in return behind him as rain fell around!

From deep beneath the oceans something stirred. The sunlight behind glistening as the ocean’s surface broke and the great Blue and Black Dolphin leapt from beneath the waves! Diving itself back beneath only to emerge again near shore to change into it’s own amazing Knighted form! The tail split itself down the middle, allowing the long armored feminine legs from beneath to fold themselves free. While the head lifted up. The body split itself down the middle, opening to reveal the main body of the Knight. Resembling a great female warrior in shape, the arms folded out and the rest of the Dolphin’s body settled into place. The top half which split open settled behind the shoulders, the tail settled behind each one almost like coat tails, and the Dolphin’s head settled on the outer side of each after splitting open. Allowing the head to rise, matching the others but with long tendrils of metallic black hair and a Hawk crest between those shimmering blue eyes just above that slender feminine robotic face. Crying out, the great Dolphin Knight posed with one foot before the next and slammed her fists together, forming the great Knight Bow as waves clashed and the sun shone behind her!

A mighty roar came from above the clouds. There, standing atop a formation of clouds with the might of the Alder Kingdom behind him, was the White and Gold Exalted Lion. One mighty leap sent the Lion hurtling towards the ground and towards his transformation! Bright golden lines formed throughout the Beast before it split along the crease of each one. The head, top half of the body along the length, and tail all lifted up as one piece. While beneath the front paws became bulkier and hands emerged from each, the legs extended from the back revealing white and gold armor trimmed with crimson. The beast landed with a feline grace and a Lion’s power as the great Knight stood upright. The Back of the Beast settled along the shoulders, the Head becoming the left, while the tail section became the right. Revealing the chest shield of gold over white armor again trimmed in crimson. And as the male faced head was revealed the Lion’s head roared sending gold exploding outward from the back of the Knight’s head.. forming the long golden mane of the Exalted Mech. The final touches, claws extending from above each hand. Three golden sharpened claws capable of rendering through almost anything. And the right hand lifted, gripping the tail, Pulling it out to reveal the Sword of the Knight! A long rapier like weapon. While the left hand gripped the head, forming the Leo Shield! Shaped like the head of the Great Beast itself!

We attack as one! Rhino, send him off balance. Stag and Dolphin, use your speed! I’ll attack from the front... Trust yourselves, Trust each other, Trust your Beasts... Attack!

The Great Rhino Knight lowered himself down to shoulder tackle the giant Death before them. But Death was prepared, gripping Rhino’s shoulders and planting his own feet in an attempt to stop his charge.. Like that would stop him! The Rhino continued running, Death skidding along helplessly unable to stop himself before Rhino stopped and send Death hurtling into the ruined buildings behind him!
Next came Dolphin. She leapt into the skies, thrusters firing from beneath each animal cowling behind the Knight, giving her the hang time needed to draw her bow!

EXALTED DOLPHIN MAELSTROM!

The Bow began raining blue fire down on Death, who tried raising his arms to protect himself to no avail. Each strike landed, each strike exploded, each strike forced him to cry out in agony as his dulled gray goat’s fur burned on his flesh. But next was Stag.. Like an expert martial artist his Guardian Knight Zord swung the Staff around itself. Lashing the antlered end against the recoiling death. Forcing him to take long steps backward once again beneath the onslaught.

EXALTED STAG LANCER!

Death stumbled back from the swift kick to the stomach suddenly turning his attention skyward. Stag had lifted his hand, lifting the Staff towards the skies above him. So when the sunlight touched his weapon the end glinted brilliantly green and all around him a great forest grew. Green, and brown, and blue, the colors of a thriving wood. And Stag gripped his weapon tight swinging it around his body before that final blow fell and sent Death rolling backwards helplessly.. The forest gone but neither was Death.

Bleeding black the Old One stood.. and earned the name. Clenching his fists together the Goat roared into the skies above and called upon that dark power deep within him. Swirling purple flames rose along his body, completely engulfing him within seconds while the Guardian Rangers watched on. Thick black armor formed along his arms and legs looking as though it were made of stone. A helmet forged of the same now covered by his black hood, and within his hands two curved and cracked swords..

He's to strong for us alone now.. We have no choice, everyone form the Megazord!

EXALTED GUARDIAN KNIGHT MEGAZORD!

Theme - Disturbed - Indestructible

Each of the Knight's began glowing brilliantly in their respective colors and began the transformation sequence! Lion leapt gracefully skyward, folding itself up into itself while the Lion's Head and Tail both reconnecting themselves into it's shoulders and the head folding back down into the body of the Knight. Next came Rhino. The Legs folded into themselves and disconnected, allowing them to slip over the forearms of the mighty Black Knight to form large arms! But it didn't connect yet. The Rhino's head folded back behind the arms allowing it the arms to connect up beneath the shoulders of Lion Knight. While the main body of Rhino slid perfectly up along the humanoid back of Lion Knight.. But next came Stag. The Stag's head launched from off the chest of the Forest Knight, while the body folded up into itself becoming a perfect leg. Even splitting down the middle and extending to form an articulated Knee joint before it connected in a shower of sparks to the left leg of Lion. Dolphin's body did the same. Though the split and folded open Dolphin's body detached from the back of Dolphin before it attached much like Stag but to the other side. Those pieces were not forgotten! They attached to Rhino’s body in the back and were overcome by golden light becoming two great feathered wings much like that of a Hawk.. And spread themselves wide allowing the Great Megazord flight. The Stag’s head landed perfectly upon Lion Knight’s shoulders, the top of the head facing forward, and split itself open revealing the humanoid face of Exalted Megazord beneath! And when the Stag’s antlers repositioned themselves to face up.. The great Exalted Knight Megazord was complete!

Slamming his fists together, pulling them slowly apart, the Megazord formed his broad sword. Each of the Guardian Beasts etched into the blade with the guard shaped to resemble the Hawk Zord in-flight. While the other thrust forward and called upon the Guardian Shield. A mighty Round Buckler which attached to the outside of the forearm and carried on it the symbol of the Adler Kingdom. Each of the nine Guardian Beasts, with Dragon surrounding them along the outer edge.

Within the Megazord the cockpit was set up with Malcolm in the back. Standing and holding the controls given him, while Malory and Dwayne sat on either side a little lower holding their own controls. And Melissa on the bottom. Sitting in her control chair to give commands and guide them. A white room trimmed in each of their colors with large hanging tapestries.

We attack together!

The Megazord’s wings spread wide and his legs pushed, like he was pushing himself off the wall of a pool. Sending him hurtling towards Earth. Towards the snarling Death beneath. Shield pulled back, sword thrust forward, the blade began shining a brilliant white before catching fire!

EXALTED KNIGHT SWORD STRIKE!

The Megazord roared thrusting the blade deep into the heart of Death! The Old sputtered, black blood spilling from his mouth and wound alike as his clawed hands reached up and held upon the blade thrust through him..

You have all made your final mistakes...

The Megazord twisted the blade setting off the explosion which destroyed the buildings beneath him and took him along with it. And once the Mech stood upright, their attention turned towards the skies. Dark clouds gathering overhead.. The ground beneath them trembled and split open revealing molten magma bubbling forth from underneath. And then they saw it.. The ruined Alder castle still aflame descending from the clouds with the two remaining Old Ones standing watch upon the Tower..
Valkeryie. She stood tall and slender with alabaster skin, wearing a furred armored one piece with a furred cloak long and luxurious as her blonde whisping hair. And that sadistic smirk making her blue eyes sparkle. And beside her, the God King himself, Odin. The Elder Man wore heavy armor and furs. Holding his staff topped with the head of the Dragon. Long white hair to match his long white beard, while his one dark crimson eyed narrowed on the Megazord beneath it.

Slaughter them.

They wall watched on in horror as Lizardmen, Dragons, Harpies, every minion of the Old Ones poured through the opened portal and began their final push into this world.. The Exalted watched on, turning their attention back towards the now standing Melissa.

... We have to stop them. We have to stop them here and now..

Next...

THE END OF THE EXALTED
THE END OF EVERYTHING
