Access 22: Mega! The Black Hero’s Passion!

The guys helped Nathan out of bed and brought him out of the room. “Ugh...where’s Kyle? He could really help us out with this!” “I’m not that heavy! But yeah...where is he?” The guys looked around to see Kyle sitting in a lounge chair, drinking a smoothie. “What?” “Dude, where were you?!” “Help us out with this!” “HEY! I’m not a ‘this,’ I’m a person!” “Oh, my bad.” “Hey Kyle...what’s that beside you?” The guys looked to the side of Kyle, and standing next to him was what looked like a person with a lampshade on its head. “Uh...it’s a lamp! Duh, see?” Kyle pulled on the person’s arm and the lampshade lit up and illuminated the room. “See?! Lamp!” The guys all looked at Kyle with neutral faces. Dropping Nathan’s legs, Reggie walked up to Kyle and took the lampshade off. “WHOA!” “WHAT THE?!” “ISN’T THAT?!” “Ehehehe...Guys...meet LukaRoid MK2…” As the guys were still in awe, Ai walked into the room. “Oh, so now you’ve introduced her to everybody?” “Ai...did you have something to do with this?” “Yeah...remember when Kyle-san was in that full body cast? Well, I wanted to make something for him to help him feel more comfortable and well...here we are!” “So you built him a robot that looks just like-” “Yup! She built me my very own Luka!” Kyle said, hugging LukaRoid MK2. “Uh...don’t you guys find it kinda odd that-” “She looks like the LukaRoid from a while back? Well, Ai apparently looked over the previous security footage and built her based on that!” While he still hugged LukaRoid MK2, Tony walked into the room, stared, then turned around. “Ah! Tony, meet-” “I see...Ai, why did you build him that?” “To help Kyle-san feel more comfortable while he was healing.” “So wait, that thing has been here in the base since we’ve been injured?!” “Yup.” “HOW DID WE NOT NOTICE BEFORE?!” “She was always standing in the room, don’t tell me you didn’t notice!” Kyle walked over to a terminal and brought up security footage. On the screens, everybody could see what had occurred the past few weeks- in every corner was LukaRoid. “Uh...how did we really not notice that before?”

“Ahem.” The group turned to Tony, who was holding a clipboard. “Okay team, here’s the news. Nathan, your belt still isn’t repaired yet, Ai is working on that. And by the way…” Tony dropped his clipboard and ran at Nathan, dropkicking him. “ARE YOU AN IDIOT?!” “WHA!” Nathan was sent flying, hitting a wall. “Tony!” “Come on, he just got better!” “Now I’ll tell you why I did that!” Grabbing Nathan by his shirt collar, Tony held him against the wall. “Listen, each of the USBs were made to correspond to only ONE ModRanger at a time. Each one was formed by a corresponding Original ModRanger- Jordan received data from ModBronze, you received data from ModNavy, Reggie received data from ModYellow, Matt gained data from ModWhite, and Kyle gained data from ModHunter. The remaining data from ModCyan converged with each other part of data, forming your USB. The reason for this is because their powers closely corresponded to yours. Which means this...ONLY ONE USB PER PERSON! THE USE OF MORE THAN ONE IS LIFE THREATENING!” Letting Nathan go, Tony adjusted himself as he looked at him. “Now, you being able to survive that ordeal indicates that perhaps you will overcome that someday. But for now, your USB is on lockdown. And your ModBelt is not repaired, so you are to sit out on missions from now on. Understand?” “Sir, yes sir!” “Good, now Jordan, Matt, Reggie, Kyle. Report to the training room. I need to reassess how you all are physically. Nathan, sit on the bench.”

As the guys made it to the training room, Ai followed Reggie and held his hand. “Huh? Ai, shouldn’t you be-” “I decided I’ll train with you guys too!” “Eh?” “Honey, there may be a time where I’ll need to defend myself and you’re not around.” “But baby, I’ll always be there to prot-” “No buts! Except yours, which I’ll kick!” Ai said winking, before running ahead. Coming back, she gestured Reggie to lower his head. “But of course I wouldn’t hurt you in anyway...intentionally...honey,” she whispered, before kissing his cheek. Running to the woman’s locker room, Ai waved to Reggie as he entered the men’s locker room. Changing clothes, Reggie went into the training room, and saw Matt and Jordan immediately sparring. “Heh, is that the best you got?!” “Hey, don’t look down on your leader, Matt!” From the other side of the room, Reggie could see Ai- she walked in wearing a white and pink leotard. Stretching, she noticed Reggie staring and waved to him. “Hey Reg, let’s spar!...Reg?” Kyle looked at Reggie and could see that his eyes were fixated on Ai, who was stretching. “Reg?” “Uh-huh, yeah…” “Dude, she’s your girlfriend, quit staring already.” Kyle looked on at Ai to see she was now doing the splits, with Reggie’s focus directly on her. “Snap out of it!” Kyle yelled, slapping Reggie. “Um...Honey, you know I can do this, but...can you help me up now?” Reggie snapped out of his trance and walked over to Ai, helping her off her feet. “Okay, now I can spar with Re-” “Actually, no Kyle.”

The whole room became silent as Tony walked in, transforming into ModMaster immediately. “Today, you’ll receive training on how to use your USB,” he said, swiping his sword at Kyle. As the blade came towards him, Kyle leapt back and yelled “Mod Access, Log In!” As he leapt back, a black mist surrounded him before a pink data manifestation of Luka Megurine appeared and hugged him. As soon as she kissed his cheek, the black mist evaporated, revealing his armor. The final step was her taking a pair of headphones, applying them to Kyle’s helmet, finishing it as his visor turned bright blue. “Come at me, Kyle!” Tony said, holding his arms out wide. “Hehe...Get him, LukaRoid.” “Eh?” To Tony’s surprise, the LukaRoid jumped in front of him and kicked him in the stomach. As he fell, LukaRoid grabbed his head and kneed him, sending him flying into the air. Leaping upward, LukaRoid was about to grab onto Tony when his blade was in her face. Hitting her with the back of the handle, LukaRoid slammed into the wall. Landing on the ground, Tony lunged at Kyle, slicing away as Kyle attempted to dodge. When the blade came up above Tony’s head, Kyle dropped his ModPistol and held his hands up. “Kyle, what are you doing?” “Uh...Nothing…” Kyle said, dropping his hands. “Now!” From behind him, LukaRoid leapt up and smacked Tony aside, before picking Kyle up. Bolting away, Kyle laughed. “Haha! Can’t catch me now, To-” “Who can’t catch you?” Kyle quickly turned to see Tony right beside him. Slamming the back of his hand against Kyle’s helmet, Kyle was sent flying as his transformation cancelled. LukaRoid noticed that Kyle was in danger and leapt, catching him. “Kyle, you’ve been regressing. You lack any conviction, you seem lazier than before!” “What are you talking about, Tony?!” “You have been taking things too easy after getting that full body cast off! What you need, is more training so you can start pulling your own weight around here!”

“You know what Tony, I may know someone who can help.” “Who?”

“So, even Azure has fallen. Victor was unprepared for Violet’s new power and Azure was just reckless. He charged in knowing that there was no chance for him to succeed. But Blake…” “Yes, Jered?” “I believe you can handle your counterpart. If what I remember correctly from what I hacked in the Anon Army’s servers, Blue is currently incapacitated, and Violet is only allowed to use his USB as a last resort. This means, there is no one stopping you from taking out Black. Do you think you're up to it?” “Yes Jered...Viral Access!” Raising his pass, Blake inserted it into his belt. *BLACK. FIREWALL DOWN.* As a black mist surrounded him, a large black tiger with white stripes leapt from it and began to tear him apart into strips of data. As the strips began to flutter and float away, the tiger caught each part in its mouth and spat it back out, revealing a Blank Suit. As it rose it’s hand, the mist and tiger began to converge in the air before combining onto the Blank Suit, creating OnoreBlack’s armor. Turning to his two comrades, Blake saluted them before disappearing into a portal of data. “Do you really think Blake will be alright, Jered?...Jered?” Graham turned to Jered, who was busy eyeing something in a box. “Oh...yes, Graham, I believe he will be.” Shutting the box, Jered placed his hands on Graham’s shoulders. “He should be.”

“Move your legs faster Kyle! Move faster!” “Ow, okay Allie, you don’t have to put the megaphone up to my ear!” Kyle was running on a treadmill in Allie’s apartment. Nathan and LukaRoid were sitting on the couch watching. “See, it’s a good thing my girlfriend also works as a personal trainer!” “Then how come you still look like tha-” “Shut up and keep running!” Turning to Nathan, Allie sat next to him and kissed his cheek. “Uh...Nathan...what is that?” “It’s a robot to help Kyle out. Ai built it.” “I see…” Allie got up and walked to the kitchen. “Hey, Nathan, want a drink?” “No babe, I’ll come and get it!” “Nathan, I really mean ‘do you want a drink?’” “Oh...well, I’m coming over there anyway.” After a couple of minutes in the kitchen, the couple came out with energy drinks.

“WHAT THE?!” Kyle was on the couch, with LukaRoid in his place on the treadmill. As she picked up speed, the robot ran so fast she broke the treadmill and ran out the wall, leaving her outline etched in it.. Turning to see Allie and Nathan’s shocked faces, Kyle slowly grabbed a drink from Allie’s hand and looked at her. “Do you have any in gra-” Allie immediately balled her hand into a fist and punched Kyle square in the jaw, causing him to go flying through the hole Lukaroid made. “...Uh...babe...we need to pay for that.” “No we’re not, when I punched Kyle, I somehow managed to knock his wallet out of his pocket.” “...I love you so much right now.”

___

Across town, Reggie looked at his phone while remembering what happened the last time he fought at Hyper ModViolet. The raw power, the ferocity, the terror... he knew that if he was ever going to prevent what happened to him as Hyper, he’d need to train to control it. Asking his friends at CPU would be out of the question; he wouldn’t want them to be in harm’s way. “Harm...that’s it!” Reggie quickly dialed the number he was given before and called it.

___

“Dang it...that demon-woman Allie…” Kyle was found by LukaRoid, and was being carried by her to his apartment. “I wish you could talk LukaRoid, it’s odd having this conversation and not being talked back to.” LukaRoid stopped moving and turned her head towards him. “Man...who am I kidding? You’re not Luna...and you’re not the original LukaRoid…It’s not like you can understand me. Can we...just go inside now?” LukaRoid kept staring at him before she nodded, unlocking his door. Looking around his apartment, Kyle let out a hefty sigh. “You know LukaRoid, after moving here, I thought I could escape from how I used to be. But I can’t. The past is precious to me…” Kyle looked towards LukaRoid to see that she had not budged at all, but kept staring at him. “...I guess Ai built you, but couldn’t make you understand what I’m even saying beyond basic commands, huh?...well, I’m gonna take a nap, LukaRoid…” As Kyle laid down on his couch and nodded off to sleep, LukaRoid kept staring at him. Turning her head, she noticed a framed picture on the counter. Picking it up, her optical sensors zoomed in on it. Looking back and forth at the picture and at Kyle, LukaRoid put it back down and walked up to him.

___

Halfway across town, Reggie was waiting in a vacant lot. “So, what is it that you need of me?” Reggie turned to see Harmony, without her armor. “I need you to train me.” “Train you?” “Yes...” Reggie got on his hands and knees. “You’re the only person I know who can do this. Please, teach me your ways!” “Eh?” Harmony looked away, looking a bit flustered. “Re...really, now? You believe me to be suitable to be your trainer?” “Yes ma’am!” “Ve...very well then. Get up and take out your weapon.” Reggie did as he was told and summoned his ModSpinSabre. “I want you to come at me with everything you got, as your human self.” “Are you sure this will work, Harmony?” “Trust me!” Reggie closed his eyes and took a breath, before leaping forward and swinging his blade diagonally. Harmony blocked the blade and held her palm in front of Reggie’s chest. Not even touching it, but pushing forward, she managed to send Reggie flying towards a wall. To her surprise, he managed to turn his legs towards it and kicked, propelling himself towards her. Bringing her sword up, she backed away slowly, not noticing a bump in the pavement. “Whoa!” As she tripped, Reggie stopped himself and caught her. “Are you okay?” Harmony’s face turned a bright red. “Wha...WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU’RE TOUCHING?!” Reggie looked to see where his hand was. “WHOA! I’m sorry, I didn’t me-” Reggie’s fumbling caused him to trip over the same bump and fall onto Harmony. Reggie and Harmony’s eyes both widened- their lips were accidentally pressed against each other. Harmony closed her eyes and pushed her lips against Reggie’s before she opened her eyes again. She brought her head back and raised one of her hands. Pushing Reggie off, she swung her arm, slapping him across the face as she yelled “BAKA!!!” Her slap sent Reggie flying into the wall. Touching her lips, Harmony looked away. “What is going with me...why...ack, Reggie!” Harmony noticed that her slap was too hard; a human shaped hole was in the wall and Reggie was crawling out of it.

“That was harsh!” “Well sorry...but hey! You should be apologizing to me!...that was my first kiss...” “What was that?” “Nothing...now, shall we continue?” “Uh sure…” Taking his ModSpinSabre in hand, Reggie swept at Harmony who quickly parried it and thrust her rapier forward. Reggie leapt back and separated his weapon into its base components and opened fire. Harmony simply brought her rapier up and swung downward, cutting Reggie’s fireball in half. “You really are like her…” “Who?” “Ease, your ‘sister.’” “We are not alike at all!” Harmony yelled while swinging rapidly. “Jeez, are all of the members in your family this crazy?!” “No...no, just Ease,” Harmony said, putting her blade away. “Look. I know you want to control that power of yours, but I have no idea how to help. This training shows me you’re strong enough to fight without it.” As she opened up a data portal, Reggie put his weapon back together. “Hey, wait! Please, tell me more about you and Ease! What exactly are you?! Why are you two here?! You both don’t look like something from the Anon Army! Tell me!” Harmony turned towards Reggie with a frown on her face. “I’ll need to tell you that another day...Farewell.” With Harmony disappearing into the portal, Reggie looked at the area around him. Everything was ablaze and broken; walls were slashed, streetlights were bent and melted, and the hole he had crawled out of made the entire building collapse. Reggie stood and suddenly jolted. “GAH!!!! I kissed someone besides Ai!!!”

___

“Ugh...my head...” Kyle got up and realized there was a blanket on him. “Huh?” Turning his head, he noticed LukaRoid, plugged into the wall and shutdown in the corner. “Did she...” Smiling, Kyle walked over to LukaRoid and pet her head. “Thanks, LukaRoid.” Flipping her switch, LukaRoid got up and looked at Kyle. “Ready to head to CPU?” All LukaRoid did was stare as Kyle sighed. “LukaRoid, command code 3: Head to CPU.” LukaRoid looked and nodded, taking Kyle by the hand, as the two walked away from the apartment, OnoreBlack teleported behind the corner. “So they must be heading to their headquarters…excellent…” *What will you do?* OnoreBlack looked down at the blade in his hand. “What do you mean, what will I do?!” *You’ve hesitated in the past. Do it again, and Black will continue to be a nuisance.* “HE WON’T BE! I WILL NOT FAIL! I WILL DEFEAT HIM, AND SUCCEED WHERE VICTOR AND AZURE DIDN’T!” *You do know what Jered is planning, right?* “Planning?” *Nothing...now, follow those two!*

___

“How’s he coming along, Hax?” Ease walked up to Hax, who was on her computer; Viralindas was in a replica of the ModRanger’s recovery pods. “The tech I’ve taken from the DorkRangers is remarkably effective! I’m glad I managed to take this data from the time I made LukaRoid!” “That’s nice and all, but what is Master’s condition?” Sighing, Hax quickly typed into her computer and brought up Viralindas’s vitals. “As you can see, his systems are almost completely recovered, but that mark on his chest definitely won’t close. But soon Ease...soon enough…”

Back at the base, the guys had continued their training. Jordan was facing Matt, while Nathan was consoling a somewhat depressed Ai. “Where could my darling be? He told me he was only going to be out for an hour but that was yesterday…” “Ai, I’m sure he’s fine. What did he tell you he was going to do?” “...Buy groceries…” “Well he better come back with a bunch of food for making you worry so much. And if not, I’ll kick his a-” “You’ll kick whose what now?” Nathan turned to see Reggie, clutching one of his arms with scratches on his face. “Honey! Where have you been?!” Ai asked, clutching onto him. “Training... Ai...I’ll tell you about it later. I’m sorry for making you worry.” “Good thing you’re back Reggie. Now all we’re missing is Kyle.” “Right here!” Kyle ran into the room with LukaRoid in tow. “Tony, I’m ready to train again!” “...Okay, but LukaRoid must stay out of the fight.” “Understood. LukaRoid, stand do-” Just as he was about to finish his sentence, Kyle and the others were startled by a large explosion. “What the-”

“Hehehehe….so this is where you’ve been hiding!” From a large hole in the wall, OnoreBlack stepped through, sword in hand. “How did he find us?!” “Easy, I followed my foolish counterpart right there. Now, I will get revenge on what happened to my comrades! Violet, Blue, your heads are mine!” “Nathan, Reggie, stand back!” “Jordan! Why do I-” “You’re obviously still injured and Nathan can’t transform right now! Matt, Kyle and I will handle this! Ready guys?!” “Ready!” “Mod Access, Log In!”

“Tony, trust in us that we can handle this. Help Reggie, Nathan and Ai evacuate the employees.” “You’re growing into a fine leader, Jordan...very well! Come on!” As the four of them made their way out, Jordan, Kyle and Matt stared OnoreBlack down. “Four on one, huh?...That won’t make any difference.” “Four?” The three ModRangers all turned their heads to the right to see LukaRoid just standing there. “EH?! LUKAROID?! GET OUT OF HERE?!” LukaRoid just stared back at Kyle and tilted her head. “Argh, Kyle, get her out of here, Matt and I will handle him!” “But-” “GO!” Brandishing his ModCalibur, Jordan charged at OnoreBlack, swinging upward at him. The Onorenger grabbed the blade and punched Jordan’s side, causing him to stagger back. “Hey, he’s not the only one here!” From underneath OnoreBlack’s feet, Matt drilled his way upward, hitting him with an uppercut to the jaw. As the Onorenger staggered back, Jordan regained his footing and pushed his blade forward. “Alright, direct hit!” *THINK AGAIN!* Jordan gasped upon seeing OnoreBlack’s sword was levitating on its own as it knocked his ModCalibur out of his hand. “Hehehe...now!” In a flash of black, OnoreBlack hit all of Jordan’s pressure points, causing him to fall to the floor. “JORDAN!” “You bastard!” Matt pushed his ModGigaDrill towards OnoreBlack only for it to also be blocked by his blade. OnoreBlack then used his arms to knock Matt’s arms back, before hitting him in the chest with his palms. “Gah!” “Matt! LukaRoid, please, get out of here!” “Hehehe...you’re next, Black!” OnoreBlack grabbed his blade and ran towards Kyle, getting ready to strike.

“Hey!” OnoreBlack leapt back as a whip-like blade was swung in front of him. From the side, two familiar figures could be seen. “Will, James?!” “Tony warned us that we can’t use this one more time or else it’d be too dangerous...but damn it, I hate doing office work!!!” “Let’s go James!” “Right!” Will as NewsieKnight was the first to leap into action, using his weapon to constrict OnoreBlack. As he rose OnoreBlack into the air, James began opening fire. “There!” “Yeah! We got him!” *GUESS AGAIN FOOLS!* OnoreBlack’s sword flew towards James, slicing through his chest cannon. “What the?!” The blade flew in a circle and swatted Will’s weapon out of his hand, causing OnoreBlack to drop. “Hey! No fair!” “Will, look out!” Before he could react, OnoreBlack grabbed onto his UserBelt and ripped it off before hitting Will in the chest. “WILL!” Charging at OnoreBlack in anger, James punched at the Onorenger only for his fist to be caught. “I’ll be taking this too!” Ripping off his UserBelt, James was then swung towards Will, causing the two to hit a nearby wall. Tossing their belts aside, OnoreBlack turned his attention back on Kyle. “And then there was one.”

“No, there’s still another!” Reggie charged in and swung his ModSpinSabre in a reverse grip at OnoreBlack, hitting his belt. “What will that do?” “Create an opening...Fire now, Kyle!” “Right!” Taking his ModPistol and ModBlaster, Kyle blasted OnoreBlack, who for the first time, felt pain. “What...what was that?!” “Just like us...it seems your belt gives you a healing factor...but look what I did!” OnoreBlack looked down at his belt to see that Reggie had left a crack in his belt from where he struck. “Why you!!!” “Mod Access, Log In!”


*VIOLET. ACCESS GRANTED, DOWNLOADING.*

“Hyper USB, I- Gah!” Reggie clutched at his arm. “Reg! You alright?!” “Damn...still too weak from training, I can’t go Hy-” “Too bad for you then!” OnoreBlack kicked Reggie in his stomach, sending him flying. “Reg!” “Your friends can’t help you at all, Kyle. Are you sure you can handle this by yourself?” Clenching his fist, Kyle looked down. “I mean, it’s not like you’re fighting for anyone yourself, right? I mean, Violet has his girlfriend here, Blue has that redhead...but what about you? You have NOBO-” Before he could even finish, OnoreBlack was sent flying by Kyle’s punch. “You’re right...I have nobody...The first girl I truly loved died...but she told me to keep fighting on...the second girl was created to fight me...but even deep down, I knew she didn’t want to. She hated what the Anon Army made her do…which is why…even though I don’t have anybody now, I still have them here!” Kyle declared pointing at his heart. “You and the rest of your team of assholes may think that those we care about make us weak...but they make us strong! Those people I no longer have...are my strength!” Charging at OnoreBlack, Kyle managed to land another blow on the Onorenger.

“Hehehe…Yes...show me that anger!” OnoreBlack slammed the back of his fist on Kyle’s helmet, knocking it off. Just as he was about to hit him again, Kyle caught his fist and headbutted the Onorenger. “That won’t work!” OnoreBlack returned the attack, causing Kyle to stagger back. Grasping his wrists, OnoreBlack swung him around and attempted to toss him, only for Kyle to regain his footing and toss him instead. “Things have just gotten interesting! But I don’t like to lose!” Just as he said that, OnoreBlack’s blade flew towards Kyle’s back…

___

“What?!” “Huh?...LukaRoid?” Right behind Kyle, LukaRoid had caught the blade in her hands. “I didn’t command her to do that…” “You didn’t need to Kyle.” Kyle’s eyes widened as LukaRoid’s blank stare became one full of life, as she smiled for the first time. Taking the blade in hand and snapping it in half, she tossed it aside and helped Kyle regain his footing. “Did you miss me?” “Wait...that voice...you’re…” Before he could finish, LukaRoid kissed him. Backing away, she smiled and stared into his eyes. “The day I hacked into the systems, part of my personality was left in there. So when Miss Ai built this body, I put myself into it. I heard your words Kyle...I was just waiting to hear them again.” “LukaRoid…” Hugging her, Kyle closed his eyes and tried to hold back the tears. “You...Bitch!” Suddenly in front of them, OnoreBlack backhanded LukaRoid, causing her to fly to the side. “LukaRoid!” “And you!” Gripping Kyle by his neck, OnoreBlack held him up in the air, tightening his grip. “That blade...it was precious to me! It was part of me! She killed part of me...so I shall kill something important to he- gah!” OnoreBlack dropped Kyle as he was sent flying into a wall by an energy blast. In her hands, LukaRoid held a weapon that looked similar to GoGoV’s Grand Liner. “Kyle, are you okay?!” “Yeah! Huh?” Kyle noticed that she tossed him something and caught it. Suddenly glowing in a bright black light, Kyle immediately knew what it is. “Huh...my USB!” “It’s your passion that helped activate it Kyle! Use it!” “Right! Um….oh! I know! Mega USB! INSTALL!” Taking his USB and inserting it into the side of his belt, the ModBelt announced *PROGRAM: MEGA. INSTALLING.*

___

“...Eh?” Kyle looked at his arms and legs. “Huh? Why didn’t I change?!” “Uh, Kyle…” Reggie, pointed behind Kyle, who immediately gasped in shock. “GAH! LUKAROID!” To his surprise, LukaRoid’s body began to break apart and shift around, suddenly coming all together in the form of a large cannon. “Why...why?!” “Kyle! Don’t despair!” “Eh? LukaRoid, you can still talk as that?” “Yes, now, use me!” “Uh…” “Grip the handle of that weapon I was using earlier and hold it up into the air!” Kyle ran to her side and grabbed the weapon and did what he was told. Suddenly, LukaRoid flew into the air and landed on the handle. “Whoa, whoa!” Suddenly, Kyle fell down, slamming the cannon onto the ground. “Kyle, are you alright?!” “Yeah...too...heavy…” “Kyle, insert your ModPass in my weapon!” “Okay...hold on…ow...my hand…” Placing his ModPass into the weapon, it suddenly separated into new pieces. The pieces flew around Kyle as his helmet came up as well, before they all collided onto him, forming new armor. “Alright! This is what I’m talking about!” Picking up LukaRoid, Kyle swung her towards OnoreBlack, sending him flying out of the base. Now in the same vacant lot Reggie was in earlier, Kyle and OnoreBlack stared each other down. “I christen thee, the MegaLukaCannon!” “Kyle, pay attention, your target is getting way.” “Huh?” “No...I can’t die here...I can’t die here...I can’t die here!” “What? Now he’s running?” “Kyle, perhaps this is the best time to finish him off.” “Right!” Taking his ModPass and inserting it into a slot on her side, LukaRoid’s eyes began to glow in a rainbow of colors. Aiming her at the running OnoreBlack, Kyle pulled the trigger, unleashing a beam blast that corresponded to the ModRanger colors. As soon as the beam hit him, OnoreBlack was completely decimated by it. As he watched this happen, Kyle saw something gleaming in blast that disappeared quickly. “Huh...well. I guess it’s all over now.”

___

“Jered! Jered!” Jered was sitting in a chair as Graham came running in. “It’s Blake, he-” “I know Graham.” Jered slammed what he was looking at onto a counter and got out of the chair making his way to him. “Now, I should do what I should’ve done a while back. Graham, I will train you.” “Tra...train me?” Jered placed his hands on Graham’s shoulders and looked at him intensely. “Yes! I’ll train you to be stronger than Azure, more cunning than Victor, and more deadly than Blake! Yes, soon Graham, you will be as strong as me.” Graham blinked in awe and nodded. “I won’t let you down, Jered!” “I know you won’t. Now head outside, we’ll begin training immediately!” “Yes sir!” As Graham ran outside, Jered made his way back to the counter. “Soon...soon enough…”

___

“WOOHOO!!!” “Ugh, Kyle, be quiet!” “HOW CAN I BE?! LUKAROID HAS RETURNED TO ME!” Kyle was hugging LukaRoid tightly. “Ai, I can’t thank you enough!...Ai?” “She and Reggie are talking right no-”

___

*SLAP!* “HOW COULD YOU?!” Ai ran out of CPU with tears in her eyes as Reggie fell to his knees and punched the ground…

Next Time On Tokunation Sentai ModRanger!

Reggie: Ai…
Matt: Damn it...Tony, train me!
OnoreGreen: Hehehe...Green is not going to survive this one!
Tony: Matt...The answer lies within you.
