Attack Of The Shadows

[Ma-Ti]

Gi smirked seeing them them both but Spoony was only knocked over. JO seemed happy about it and dodged it to her shock and then punched her. Gi staggered back as she pulled out another gun and Gi looked at her confused.

"If you think a gun's going to stop my power you're mistaken." Said Gi.

"Water!" said Gi.

She guided anoter wave of water towards JO and Spoony unaware the gun ran on water power.

XXXXX

Marzgurl paused seeing Gi's attack on JO and Spoony and shouted out to Tony.

"Hey can you redirect that water to the dragon? Even if it doesn't stop his flames it should at least put out the fires around here." said Marzgurl.

She turned to see Rita and glared at her.

"Yeah. Your little creations are busy. Guess you don't have Finster here to make your monsters." said Marzgurl, chuckling.

XXXX

Rita frowned glaring at them both.

"You want a monster? You asked for it." said Rita.

She cackled blasting at the ground.

"Elements of earth, water, wind, and fire.
Bring to me a monster that will fulfill my heart's desire."

The earth shook as dirt flew in the air taking some of the water from gi's attack and some of the fire on the ground joined in along with a little bit of wind into the air as a new powerful creature stood. He had green skin, orange armor and blue hair, and brown eyes.

"I gave you Tempest my elemental creation. He controls the elements. Only he's not going to save the planet. He's going to help conquer it." said Rita.

She cackled and watched as Tempest breathed fire at them.

"This isn't good." said Marzgurl.

She dove for cover narrowly missing the fire.

XXXX

Chick paused glaring at DH. When Critic paused she shook her head.
]
"No. I'm not leaving you to find that thing. Besides if you thought Maleficent and Grimhilde were made at you you reviewed his film too remember. He's probably not going to be happy to see you.' Said Chick.

She begun firing her Blade Blaster at him but it didn't do much to him.

XXXX

D.H. smirked at them.

"Thanks for remind me Nostalgia Chick. I didn't appreciate being mocked. How about I roast you both?" said D.H.

He laughed and breathed fire at them but frowned as his attack was interrupted by Tony to his annoyance.

"Why is someone always spoiling my fun?" said D.H.

He frowned and swipes a claw at Tony ignoring Chick and Critic for the moment.

XXXX

Teddy smirked seeing Paw and Blackberry leaving injured.

"Well that takes care of them for the moment. But you're not the one I'm after. I want the Nostalgia Critic." said Teddy.

Sherlock kept punching at him and Teddy did the same.

"You may be a great detective but you're far from a great warrior." said Teddy.

Teddy chuckled and lunged at him again swinging his knife at him determined to kill him or send him leaving injured so he could go attack Critic.

XXXXX

Leo smirked at them both.

"I have no family. Only my master Malachite. Two others like you came up with that lie but I took care of them. One is now our prisoner. And the other well he got away from me. But no matter in the end you all will be enslaved or killed. Just give in. They'll go easier on you if you surrender." said Leo.

SEeing they weren't going to back down he lunged at them both swinging his twin swords one at Donatello and one at Splinter.

XXXX

"Don't play that mind game with me dude. You've been attacking brutally on Rachel and if you want her, you fight me, got it?!" 90's kid quickly ignored Jasper's words. He was too angry about the fact Rachel was in danger to listen. His friends were in danger, his army was scattered, his girl was in harm's way, poor 90's kid was more focused on stress than anything. He jabbed the gun at Jasper's chest, not shooting it but making sure Jasper stayed away

Rachel smirked and growled at Jasper and crossed her hands and nodded to 90's Kid. "You can finish him honey" Rachel said to 90's Kid as her green eyes narrowed at the thief named Jasper "I will help ya" Rach said to 90's Kid as she wanted to help her boyfriend to try beating Jasper.

Jasper frowned with 90's Kid aiming the gun at him.

"Forget this. I didn't sign up to get killed. I'm outta here." said Jasper.

He turned and fled leaving 90's Kid alone with Rachel.

(ooc: Jasper has left the thread.)

XXXX

Ma-Ti gasped as Dark Heart grabbed his sword. He glared at her before he was pushed to the ground.

"That can be arranged. I'll take care of you once and for all." said Ma-Ti.

"Heart!" said Ma-Ti.

A blast of energy flew from his ring striking Dark Heart and he picked up his sword quickly seeing she dropped it.

"I won't let you win. Iheart's coming home." said Ma-Ti.

He lunged at her firing energy blasts from his ring while swinging his sword at her as well.

XXXX

Seven smiled at Rodney.

"I am glad for the assistance. I agree you handle the woman. I shall handle Harvey." said Seven.

With the fight more fair although she doubted she couldn't handle both of them she still would enjoy taking down Harvey. Just for the thought of what it would do to Linkara. She smirked lunging at Harvey firing from her wrist cannon at him.

"hold still and this will be over quickly.' said Seven.

XXXX

Malachite frowned seeing the jet had been hit but now was flying towards him. With DH distracting much of the heroes and Mechakara looking for an opponent he was on his own. He didn't miss Jasper leaving though and would make sure to talk to him later. For now he saw Starscream flying at him and chuckled. The fool wouldn't be able to dodge in time the way he was diving. Malachite smirked and fired more energy blasts at him determined to destroy the robot.

[Deleted]

Rachel hugged 90's Kid as Jasper left. Rachel gussed that she and her boyfriend are winning this fight."Honey so we won beating Jasper?" Rach asked 90's Kid

[Linkara]

Linkara jumped back. Okay, in reality, he probably shouldn't have argue with the monster making, evil sorceress who lived in a dumpster and fought kids with spandex covered clothes, but.... no, that was the only reason, it was pretty damn stupid of him to do the this thing. He handed something to Marz.

"Here, use this morpher."

He pulled out his Green Ranger morpher. "IT'S MORPHIN TIME!!!"

Soon, the Green Ranger glared at the monster, and grabbed his dragon dagger.

.....

Edward shrieked with laughter as the water hit the gun, slowly it sucked in the water, soon it was full, and the energy beam was fully charged. She beamed and fired at Gi, unleashing the huge laser beam into her body.

.....

Harvey yelped as the terrifying robot (Read: being the Nostalgia Chick terrified him.) smashed into the lounge singer, sending him backwards several paces. Grabbing her leg, he tried and failed to not act like a puss. He grabbed the gun, finally smashing the muzzle into the ankle.

[Nostalgia Critic]

Spoony eventually woke up but coughed loudly. He then saw JO acting like a maniac with the water gun. This caused him to be confused before another wave hit them, he panicked expecting to be drowned again but the water gun saved them both and he knew now that he could get up without a problem
XXXX

Tony was busy with DH but heard Marzgurl's plea and responded as loud as he could "I could try but it looks like your buddy JO's using a bit of it. I'll try once I get a clear--" Suddenly he was whacked away by DH's claw. This did not stir the iron man though. It only annoyed him

Tony frowned and responded "Wanna play dirty eh? I can use fists. Quite a lot actually"

With that the armor suit had both hand pieces aimed right at DH and lazered him down as much as possible. Making sure every energy blast was hit right at DH
XXXX

Critic sighed, knowing Chick was right and not really happy about it. Critic saw Tony getting in trouble, and saw that DH was distracted. He turned to Chick and responded "Quick! Aim your gun and fire it with mine!" With that he aimed and fired as much as he could with his gun. Hoping to tear down DH a bit
XXXX

90's Kid and Rachel stood there together on the battleground. 90's Kid held Rachel tightly, rubbing her back protectively and kissed her head "Yeah babe. I guess we did but we still need to do something"
XXXX

Sherlock ignored the taunts, just more concerned about his face being pounded into mush. He made sure to struggle and prevent Teddy from getting Paw, Blueberry and especially Critic. He knew Teddy wanted Critic but Sherlock didn't care. He wanted the bear away. Sherlock allowed himself to be stabbed with the knife but he pulled it out and aimed for a serious area in the bear, attempted to wound him.
XXXXX

Splinter's heart hurt but his head tried to clear out why Leo was like this. Now he realized that Mikey was indeed away from Ask Thatguy but still in danger. Donny though was too shocked to realize Leo was like this and got thrown off as Leo's sword went at him. Donny fell to the ground as did Splinter. Splinter helped Donny up and responded "Donatello. Go. I shall deal with your brother"

"Splinter! No! I can't lose you! I lost three brothers. I can't lose my father" Donny begged, tears streaming now

"You will never lose me. I swear. Just run" Splinter responded. Donny looked to Leo and shook his head "He's my brother. I will help you anyway"

Seeing Donny wouldn't leave, Splinter reluctinately allowed Donny to charge at Leo. Donny cried out "I'm sorry Leo, but you left us no choice!"

[Deleted]

The front end of the jet was thrown down, but the 'con recovered quickly enough to twist away. A bit of smoke steamed out from the front of his nosecone where'd he'd been struck. Red-and-white Seeker redirected himself to cricle around the man. It seemed that the tactic to use was long-range firepower. Well, that was more than welcome - Starscream was too much of a coward for close combat against anyone he wasn't sure he could squash. The engines of the machine roared as he passed overhead and doubled back. The Decepticon had recently begun harnessing his own energy using the resources of the lab, so he was quite ready to show his skills when he was properly energized.

Starscream jerked to one side so his right wing faced down. After completing his wide turn around, the flier began to corkscrew through the sky. He didn't want to get too close, to avoid another hit, but Malachite being on the ground presented the problem of having to aim low. While spinning, the Seeker began to fire a volley of purple disks from his wings.

[Deleted]

What fun. Tara got to deal with another robot. What happened to flesh and blood combatants again? 'Too mainstream' or something? The ways of war where she was from were apparently outdated here. It didn't make sense. Was Chicago the capital of the future? Sullivan had to toss the thoughts aside as she dodged a few more blasts, still mentally muttering curses over the first time she got hit. Right here, right now, she had to deal with the robot and a gun in her face.

He took a bullet in the head. He didn't make it.

The teen stared down at the gun. She recalled someone close to her getting shot in the head. He died from the bullet. Tara Sullivan was in the same position as Richard Sullivan was in his final moments. There was a real possibility that she could get killed in that moment. She whipped her pistol upwards and pointed it at Rodney's own head, keeping her face as neutral as possible. "I don't know, sir, why don't you tell me how it feels?" A thought occurred to her. He was probably bulletproof.

And she was not.

She had only one goal now: don't get shot. If she could just manage to throw him off, it could result in him dropping the weapon. That was her plan when she attempted to use her armed hand to smack his own armed hand.
---
Shego released a snicker when Kim questioned about Drakken's whereabouts. "Drakken? Honestly, I have no idea where he is," she answered truthfully, though it was obvious she had a rather bitter tone in her words. She doged the sword attack and let out another laugh. "A sword? Really?" Just when she was ready to fight back, two people - er, creatures - came to Kim's side. "And you have back-up? You've always had at least one sidekick, huh?"

Poisonous orbs peered over towards the turtle addressing her. Apparently, she was a popular topic over on the Critic's team. "Yeah, and you're... a giant turtle." Luckily, another giant mutated turtle came to her rescue and seemed to distract the other two animal mutants, leaving her with Kim again. She evaded the kicks, though she did get hit by a punch. To fight back, she allowed green flames to cover her hands and began to throw the balls of fire at the younger female.

[Deleted]

"What shall we do now?" Rachel asked 90's Kid as her green eyes shined and looked at him

[Nostalgia Chick]

Marzgurl nodded taking the zeonizers from him.

"It's Morphin Time! Zeo Ranger 6 White!" said Marzgurl.

She morphed into the white zeo ranger as Linkara had upgraded it to be an actual ranger suit that just white clothes and a

hat for more protection.. She smiled pulling out a sword.

"Impressive." said Marzgurl.

She charged at Tempest slashing at him with her sword.

XXXX

"You two shall be destroyed." said Tempest.

He laughed and fired two fireballs at them.

"Yes. Destroy them both." said Rita, cackling.

XXXX

Gi gasped as Edward kept laughing as she looked from him to Spoony.

"Your friend has finally snapped. You might want to get her looked at." said Gi.

She then turned too late as Edward fired at her. She tried to block it but she wasn't fast enough as the lazer hit her

sending her flying backwards and to the ground. She gasped clutching her chest in pain pulling back a bloody hand.

"No. I was supposed to win." said Gi.

She collapsed to the ground as her vision began to blur before passing out.

XXXX

Ma-Ti meanwhile paused looking over seeing Gi before she collapsed. Forgetting Dark Heart he rushed over to her.

"Gi. No you can't die. Don't leave me." said Ma-Ti.

Tears were now flowly freely as he looked at her. He picked her up knowing he had to help her. She still felt warm which meant there was still hope. But then Gi vanished from his arms.

"NO!" said Ma-Ti.

He turned looking up to see Malachite smirking at him as Ma-Ti clenched his fists.

"Damn you. Bring her back!" said Ma-Ti.

He charged at Malachite.

XXXX
Malachite smirked seeing his blast had struck. But the Decepticon was powerul and seemed to be ok. He frowned dodging hise blows and eventually put a shield but it didn't last long unfortunately. He turned seeing Gi get hurt and Ma-Ti rush over to her. He frowned not wanting a repeat of what happened to Pinocchio with Gi as the heroes prisoner or worse them trying to turn her good. So he waved his hand and Gi vanished teleporting her to the med bay back home. He smirked as Ma-Ti came charging at him.

"So you want a rematch eh? I believe Dark Heart wants to have more fun with you." said Malachite.

He smirked blasting at Ma-Ti intending to knock him away so Dark Heart could attack at him some more. He then fired another blast at Starscream knowing he couldn't use that forcefield again. Perhaps he should send DH after Starscream as they both could fly. But seeing DH was busy he knew he was on his own against Starscream.

XXXX

Seven smirked as they kept fighting. She smirked seeing she had knocked him back. She frowned though as he grabbed her lug and smashed the muzzle into her ankle as she growled in annoyance. It did hurt a little but she wasn't going to let him win.She kicked him with her other foot getting her foot free as she got glared at him.

"I see I miscalculated. Well that won't happen again. I will eliminate you." said Seven.

She charged at Harvey firing at him with her laser gun but moving a bit slower cause of the damage to her left ankle.

XXXX

DH frowned in annoyance seeing Critic, Chick, and Tony firing at him. Tony was the only one he was worried about. He smirked breathing fire towards Tony but wasn't prepared for Tony's counterattack as the blast flew at him. DH shrunk turning himself into a human avoiding most of the blasts although one struck his arm before he shrunk. He winced clutching his arm glaring at the robot.

"Time to get rid of that hunk of junk once and for all." said

DH.

He chuckled and began firing at Tony determined to destroy him. He also fired at Chick and Critic as well knowing they were two of the leaders after all.

XXXX

Chick kept firing at DH as well jumping back as he attacked them.

"Great. This guy's not going down easy. Any ideas?" said Chick.

XXXX

Roses was still fighting off the Tengas alongside Sarafina and Jasmine. They were a lot of them. But they weren't as tough as they acted. She was confidant they'd get rid of them in a hurry.

XXXX

Mechakara meanwhile had spotted Linksano and grabbed him shoving him against a wall.

"Well we meet again Linksano. You're nothing but a traitor and you know what I do to traitors." said Mechakara.

He smirked grabbing him by the throat raising him into the air.

XXXX

Linksano was shocked as Mechakara grabbed him and threw him against the wall. He was scared after all Linkara had been

the one to stop Mechakara all those times. And Mechakara really didn't like it when people betrayed him.

"Mechakara listen I.."

He gasped for air as Mechakara grabbed him by the throat and he felt himself be lifted into the air.

"Stop." gasped Linksano.

XXXX

Teddy laughed as he saw he had stabbed Sherlock.

"Perfect. Once you're out of the way Critic is next." said Teddy.

He gasped as Critic pulled the knife from him and stabbed the bear. The bear staggered back annoyed at him.

"You think a knife could stop me? I'm a stuffed bear. That can't stop me." said Teddy.

He laughed until he jumped seeing Dark Heart's flames get near him. He frowned realizing the fire could roast him and well he really didn't want to be burned to a crisp. It would take him awhile to rebuild himself after that.

XXXXX

"I have no idea who you people are. But you're going down. Or maybe you'd like to join your friends in our dungeon." said Leonardo.

He smirked and charged at them swinging his swords at each of them as they fought him. He was just following his masters orders. He would help take them down so his master would win.

XXXX

"So you've chosen to side with Facilier's group then huh? Well I got to admit anyone's a step up from Draken. But you better watch your back. Some of these guys are probably more powerful than you. You cross them and you won't be lucky to be thrown into a jail cell like in our world." said Kim.

They were enemies and she doubted that would change. But at the same time she and Shego had made a good team when Shego had been good. But good or evil she really didn't want Shego to get killed. She wanted a way back home and then she could send Shego to jail. That's where she belonged. That's where they all belonged. Back in their homes. Hopefully they could end this war sooon.

Kim dodged Shego's blasts and knocked a few blasts to the side with her sword twirling it like a baton. She then jumped into the air and landing next to Shego swinging a kick at her legs trying to knock her over.

[Nostalgia Critic]

Donny tried to dodge Leo's attacks, but the shock of his brother being there was distracting and caused Donny to fall flat to the floor. Splinter, however, allowing this horrible crisis to not bother him if only to fight and fought back againist Leo. Splinter tried to reason with Leo "Leonardo! You are my son! How can you not remember? Try to think!"
XXXXX

"Nope. Trying to think of one though, give me a second" Critic responded as DH couldn't be bothered by his attacks. Critic then responded calmly "I'll try to go behind him, just help Tony distract him as much as you can" Critic then tried to sneak around the human boy and shot around his back.
XXXX

"Jarvis! Fire attack! JARVIS! Damnit!" Tony cried as the blast succeeded in hitting the armor. He was doing so well but now his luck was being tested. As the suit sputtered it quickly rebooted and this caused Tony to get annoyed with DH. Almost as much as he did with Mechakara. He was about to attack but then saw Linksano being choked by Mechakara himself. Giving one last blast to DH, he then flew down behind Mechakara and aimed right at the back of his head. Tony smirked "Hey, glad to see you again, Robo-douche. I say you fight me and leave Dr. Goggles be"
XXXXX

Fire

That was it. That was how to get him to be beaten. The bear was able to be burned. Perfect! Despite the injuries, Sherlock did succeed in picking up Teddy again and ran to find a proper fire hazard area. Seeing a medium sized fire from some gun fires, Sherlock tried to throw Teddy towards the fire.
XXXX

Spoony saw Gi into a coma and went to hold Edward away from killing Gi. Spoony saw Ma-Ti try to help but he was pushed back to DarkHeart. "JO! The hell's wrong with you! What are you doing?"
XXXX

DarkHeart was annoyed that Ma-Ti left the battle with her, but he was forcibly returned and because of this, DarkHeart pounced on him yet again. She snickered "Sentiment. Absolutely pathetic. When will you learn to think about yourself?!" DarkHeart than proceeded to wrestle him down and hard, determinded to cause him to pass out or something
XXXX

Rodney was shocked with Tara's response, enough to be slapped away. However, he wasn't completely undeterred and blasted without a response to her own question. Rodney narrowed his eyes "You look too young to be a soilder. Almost as young as that IHeart prisoner. What is it with your army that brings children?"

[Nostalgia Chick]

Marzgurl saw JO had snapped and Paw and Blackberry were still in another building to tend to their injuries. They needed to get them back and she turned to Linkara.

"Linkara, Harvey! Paw, Blackberry, and JO need help. Edward is back and the other two are injured. Iron Man, and the others will help me. But they need your help now." said Marzgurl.

XXXX

Linkara and Harvey nodded. They pressed a button on their communiators and were gone. Seconds later JO teleported out freeing Spoony to fight. Two beam s of energy from the nearby house teleported away showing Paw and Blackberry were on their way back to the Critic's home.

(ooc: Linkara, Harvey, JO/Edward, Paw, and Blackberry have left the thread.)

XXXX

Marzgurl strike slamming the white Power Staff at the monster vanishing into a blur and striking it. She had similar powers to the gold ranger and the monster was now defeated as it exploded.

"Looks like your monster is toast. What else are you going to do?" said Marzgurl.

XXXX

"I thought I was rid of Power Rangers and now two of you are rangers. This is giving me a headache." said Rita.

She clutched her head in annoyance but she would not let this girl win. Linkara had left with a few members at the moment and leaving Marzgurl and her alone now.

"Well looks like you're on your own now. Let' see how good you really are." said Rita.

She cackled and fired an energy blast at her while slamming the ground as vines began to come up from the ground to try to grab her.

XXXX

Marzgurl dodged the vines and returned fire sending a few blasts at Rita.

XXXX

Leo kept fighting the pair annoyed.

"I've never seen either of you before in my life. Why does everyone think I'm related to them? That other pair of turtles I fought thought I was related to them too And well I roughed one up and kidnapped the other. Perhaps you'd like to join him in a cell. I don't remember his name but he had an orange bandana." said Leo.

He chuckled as he charged at them again swinging his swords at them both while sweeping his leg out for a kick trying to knock them off their feet.

XXXXX

Chick sighed in relief seeing JO, Linkara, Paw, and Blackberry teleport out. She knew Linkara would take care of things back home or send in reinforcements.

"I can't believe Edward's back. First Stone turns into Wayne and now this. I hope we can get Stone and JO back." muttered Chick.

She nodded turning to Critic.

"Alright. Just be careful. He's a dragon but he's also a shapeshifter. So he could turn into a lion or something to try to stop you." said Chick.

She kept firing her blaster at DH turning to Tony hoping he'd back her up only to see he'd gone after Mechakara to help Linksano. She wasn't prepared for DH to grab her. She struggled in his hand trying to break free.

"Let me go!" said Nostalgia Chick.

XXXX

DH was annoyed by the pair but Iron Man had gone off to stop Mechakara from hurting someone else sending a blast at him. DH tried to dodge it but the last grazed his arm and he growled in annoyance. He'd get him later. Now hee was free to pick off the two leaders who were here. Facilier would award him for sure if he even got rid of one of them but both perhaps he'd become a general or something. He chuckled and grabbed Chick before she could get away.

"I don't think so. With Snob captured, and once I get rid of you and Critic your leaders will be gone. We're been winning and winning ever since we left Ask That Guy. We took a few captives and now looks like we're finally going to be rid of you and that annoying Nostalgia Critic." said DH.

XXXX

Mechakara turned seeing Iron Man and smirked.

"You think I'm scared of you. I beat you last time. Looks like you don't have your mascot with you this time. But go ahead and fire. But wait. You might hit the good doctor here instead which would be fine by me." said Mechakara.

He kept his grip but lessened it so Linksano could breath for the moment.

XXXX

Linksano smirked seeing Mechakara was distracted for the moment. Linksano pulled out a device out of his pocket and blasting Mechakara with it. The force of the blast knocked Mechakara back as Linksano gasped for air.

"Thanks for coming to the rescue Tony. I owe ya one. Oh by the way Mechie this device disabled your little forcefield. Not permaently unfortunately. But enough to do you harm." said Linksano.

He smirked pulling out a laser gun and fired at Mechakara.

XXXXX

Mechakara frowned as Linksano pulled out a gadget and sent him flying away. He heard Linksano's claim checking his systems and realized his forcefield was down.

"You'll pay for this traitor." said Mechakara.

Linksano started firing at him and he fired an energy blast as well as the two blasts hit each other each trying to overpower the other.

XXXX

Teddy gasped as Sherlock picked him up and walked towards a fire.

"Hey wait a second. Let's talk about this." said Teddy.

But it was too late as Sherlock threw him into a fire. Teddy gasped as he started to catch on fire. He had to leave if he hoped to save himself.

"You've won this round detective. But next time you won't be so lucky." said Teddy.

He vanished in a flash of red energy to repair himself.

(ooc: Teddy has left the thread.)

XXXX

Ma-Ti frowned as Dark Heart pounced on him as they were now on the ground wrestling as he tried to free himself but they soon stopped wrestling with her on top of him. He raised his hand to use his ring.

"Hea-"

He didn't finish as she stopped him as he felts his arms pinned to the ground. She was too strong to fight hand to hand. He was now at her mercy and he doubted Facilier told her his plans. So she might very well kill him. Although knowing her she might just toy with him. Either way he knew he wasn't getting out of her grip anytime soon.

XXXX

Seven turned no longer having an opponent but figuring Rodney could handle himself against Tara she went to search out a new one and saw Spoony by himself. She smirked and approached him. She saw Chick grabbed by DH and Critic trying to fight it off.

"Hello Spoony. Your leaders look like they're about to be dragon food or roasted. Whichever comes first. And looks like my sister's about to finish off Ma-Ti. Pity you can't do anything about it." said Seven.

She smirked and charged at Spoony firing at him with energy blasts.

[Deleted]

Maleficent carefully picked her way through the forest, gold eyes intent on the various individual skirmishes that made up this latest battle. She was, you might say, late to the party.

But better late than never.

For all her insistences that she was now in perfect health, the dark fairy knew that she still wasn’t up to full strength. Her magic was still strong, yes, but there were several things she was as of yet unable to do – her dragon transformation, for instance. Hence the reason she was skulking around in the darkness – she was searching for a proper opponent.

After a time, her eyes fell upon Marzgurl. What really drew her attention was who she was fighting – a witch whose silver hair was styled in the same horned fashion as her own headdress. Her mind scrambled to remember the witch’s name, and the words “Rita Repulsa” came forward. Though she seemed fairly powerful, Maleficent was confident that she could defeat her, particularly if Marzgurl had already weakened her.

Maleficent raised her staff and, in a concentrated blast of energy, summoned a lightning bolt to strike Rita.

[Deleted]

The jet increased the diameter of his circling and paused in his stream of purple laser fire for a moment. What was this? Was he being ignored?! If he had a face in his alternate form, he probably would have been scowling. But when Starscream saw an opportunity, he always took advantage. The winged machine veered into a turn, picking up speed, and headed for the human. The Decepticon was hoping to get a flinch out of his rival - he wasn't aware of many flesh-creatures that could stare down a screaming supersonic jet heading right for them.

He wanted to make it appear as if he was heading into another head-on attack, but the cunning Seeker had other things in mind. Seconds before he felt his was close enough, he saw a beam of energy heading at him. Not again! Starscream turned up a little further back from Malachite than he had hoped, but it was nothing he couldn't work with. A energy blast grazed the belly of the jet, but the damage of negligible. The front end of the jet pointed straight up as he rocketed himself skyward. It took the quick booger only a moment to reach a substantial altitude before he shut his engines off. As gravity began pulling him back down, the robot swiftly transformed from his jet mode. Swinging his arms from over his head he pointed his Null Rays below. One crimson optic narrowed as he briefly took aim before setting both of them off at the same time.

"AAAAGGGK!" He shrieked in fury.

[Rita Repulsa]

Rita turned surprised as Maleficent joined them to her annoyance. Unlike most of Critic's army who just barely knew how to fight Maleficent was a threat. But she knew Maleficent hadn't completely recovered from her injuries so perhaps she still had a chance of finishing this quickly.

"Well so nice to see you up and about. I have to admit that beating you took I'm surprised to see you up so soon. But I think I'm going to enjoy taking you down." said Rita.

When Maleficent summoned a lightning blast at her Rita gasped jumping out of the way although the force of the blast knocked her over. She staggered to her feet a little woozy. Injured or not Maleficent was still a powerful threat. And she still had Marzgurl to worry about too.

"Is that all you got? Let me show you how it's done." said Rita.

She cackled and formed her own lightning bolt and threw it at Maleficent.

XXXX

Marzgurl was glad Maleficent had come to her aid. But like Rita pointed out she was still hurt so she wasn't going to let Rita hurt her again. Maleficent had come along way and Marzgurl was certain she'd be back to normal in no time. That is if she didn't get hurt again. She deciding to give Maleficent time to dodge or counter attack by throwing her sword at the lighting blast making it miss Maleficent as her sword flew back towards Marzgurl and she caught it.

"Is that the best you can do/" asked Marzgurl.

She smirked and fired a laser blast at Rita.

XXXX

Malachite smirked seeing his attack had worked for Starscream to fire at him. He tried to dodge but he'd spent so much energy sending attacks at him he was getting weaker and one of the attacks hit him as he went flying. Malachite collapsed to the ground and winced.

"Damn you robot. When I'm done all machines will be wiped from the face of the Earth." said Malachite.

He unleashed another powerful group of blasts at Starscream determined to take him down.

Though her lightning strike had missed its intended target, the aftershock was enough to knock Rita to the ground – which, in Maleficent’s mind, was just where she belonged. Her blood-red lips formed a smirk.

“So you’re going to take me down?” she inquired, echoing the space witch’s earlier boast. “Somehow, I just can’t see that happening, considering that defeating a group of teenagers seems to be beyond your reach.”

A bolt of lightning identical to the one the dark fairy had just sent abruptly burst from Rita’s staff. Before Maleficent could counter, Marzgurl suddenly rejoined the fight, throwing her sword to redirect the blast. Maleficent took advantage of the distraction and summoned a wall of green fire to engulf Rita.

Nodding a silent thanks to Marzgurl, she remarked in a voice loud enough for Rita to hear, “I suppose I shouldn’t be too disappointed, what with all that Linkara told me about her and her failure of a husband.”

Rita glared at them. She sighed in annoyance.

"Well you were taken down pretty easily by Insano and Black Lantern Spoony so you can't be as tough as I've heard." said Rita, taunting her.

She paused as Maleficent's insult and chuckled.

"Look who's talking. You couldn't defeat three old women and a prince." mocked Rita.

Rita paused as her blast was deflected an then Maleficent attacked her with fire. Rita gasped waving her wand and chanting conjuring a storm that quickly put out the flames as she dodged them. But what Maleficent sent next made her snap.

"My husband a failure? We destroyed their base, destroyed the rangers powers twice, took the green ranger powers from tommy twice, and nearly won countless times. The rangers just got lucky and beat our monsters or gained new powers. But you two on the ot her hand aren't going to be so lucky." said Rita.

She cackled and fired energy blasts at them.

Marzgurl tried to deflect the blasts but realized there were too many. So she grabbed Maleficent pulling her to the side as the blasts hit. She wasn't sure how recovered Maleficent was from her injuries but didn't want to risk her getting hurt worse. Seeing they were in the clear she turned to the dark fairy.

"Are you alright?" asked Marzgurl.
