DAITA OIWA

Page Nineteen

A lovely young woman enters the room. The gentleman asks Daita if he would like to dance with the young woman? Daita replies, that would be pleasant. I happen to love dances. The two bowed to each other. Daita dances with the young woman. As they are dancing, the other Professors leave the room. Daita considers himself lucky not to have to eat the bones. The young woman tells Daita that she loves riddles and asks for a riddle. Daita cannot think of one, so instead she asks him, who is one who loves curry? Daita thinks to himself, that's me! Things just got dangerous. Daita replies, my lady is the one who loves curry. The young woman is impressed and asks Daita if he likes her? Daita replies, but of course. They are kissing when the young woman reveals herself to be Skull Mask. Daita is grossed out and quickly breaks away. The gentleman grabs Daita and knows that he is Ki Ranger. He rips off Daita's disguise and pushes him aside. He then reveals himself to be a Zolder. Skull Mask grabs a hold of Daita. Daita is tossed across the table. Skull Mask curses Daita out and then strikes him on his back with his staff. Daita is tied up and tossed into a bunker with a cell. Inside the cell are the three Professors. Daita wonders what Skull Mask plans on doing with them. Skull Mask enters laughing. He tells Daita, he is a fool. Despite being tied up, Daita tries to fight Skull Mask but is unable to do much. Skull Mask announces, finally this day has come, it is time to commence with our plans to destroy Tokyo! One of the professors is taken out of the cell. Skull Mask comments to the professor, how easy it is to separate your bones from your flesh. The Skull Reproduction Device is activated and the professor is placed in a chamber. Once the process is done, a man walks out. He announces he will become Professor Kiyozaki, and enter the artificial Earthquake Research Laboratory. There he plans to artificially create a magnitude 10 earthquake. Daita becomes alarmed and knows he needs to contact Tsuyoshi. Daita taps the bottom of his shoe, which has a communication device attached. Soon, the door burst opens and Tsuyoshi, Peggy, and Kenji enter. They quickly fight the Zolders inside. Daita is very happy to see them. Tsuyoshi faces "Professor Kiyozaki" and Daita informs him, it's Skull Mask. A Zolder leaps in front of Tsuyoshi and Tsuyoshi quickly fights it. Daita head butts the Zolder as well. "Professor Kiyozaki" leaves and Daita informs them that he's going to start a huge earthquake over the Artificial Earthquake Laboratory. Tsuyoshi tells Daita, Kenji, and Peggy to release the remaining Professors as he races out. The three quickly open the cell door. But the two remaining professors stand silently and Peggy realizes they are under hypnosis. Kenji double checks the two professors, confirming what Peggy has said. Kenji tells them, alight leave them to me. Kenji then works on waking up the professors from their hypnosis. Afterwards, they run out of the mansion and see Tsuyoshi, who was unable to catch "Professor Kiyozaki". They are all happy to see Variblune above them. Akira signals for them to come up. They transform and activate their Birdie and fly up to and enter Variblune. They soon spot the car "Professor Kiyozaki" is driving. The five Gorengers fly out of Variblune. A bomb explodes in front of the car. "Professor Kiyozaki" is surrounded by the Gorengers above him. Mido Ranger tosses his Midomerang towards "Professor Kiyozaki" and he is hit. "Professor Kiyozaki" reverts back to Skull Mask. Skull Mask vows he will kill every one of them. Aka Ranger responds, you can't defeat justice! The five Gorengers leap down to the ground. Skull Mask yells, die, as he tosses various bones towards them. A huge explosion occurs behind the Gorengers. Skull Mask laughs as he thinks he has destroyed the Gorengers. Instead they appear behind him. Skull Mask is very angry. Skull Mask has several Zolders attack the Gorengers. The five Gorengers separate. Aka Ranger fights two Zolders using well placed kicks. Ao Ranger kicks another Zolder. He lands several punches on another Zolder. Momo Ranger strikes a Zolder with several quick hits. Ki Ranger lands several punches on a Zolder. He tosses another Zolder aside. Mido Ranger kicks another Zolder. Aka Ranger battles another batch of Zolders. He uses his Red Vute and strikes the Zolders with it. Another set of Zolders leap down towards him and he knocks them out with his Red Vute. Ao Ranger leaps down. He strikes a Zolder several times. He uses his Blue Cherry and hits a Zolder with it. Mido Ranger leaps down as well. Several Zolders are running towards Mido Ranger. He uses his Midomerang and knocks some of them down. He fights another Zolder with his Midomerang. Momo Ranger strikes another Zolder. She kicks another Zolder away. Ki Ranger fights another Zolder. He distracts the Zolder and then punches him. He uses the same tactic on another Zolder. Momo Ranger kicks another Zolder away. She uses her Earrings Bomb on another group of Zolders running towards them. The explosion gets rid of the remaining Zolders. Skull Mask is furious. His coffin starts to come up from the ground. The Gorengers face Skull Mask as he stands by his coffin. Skull Mask tells them, once I enter this coffin, my powers will increase one hundred-fold. The coffin door opens and Skull Mask enters. Ao Ranger tells the rest of the Gorengers, it's time for the special explosive missile. The missile is attached to a bow and Ao Ranger fires Blue Cherry into the eye of the skull outside the coffin. Skull Mask is thrown from his coffin. The Gorengers summon Gorengers Storm. A pink ball appears in Momo's hands. She kicks it towards Ki Ranger. Ki Ranger head butts the yellow ball towards Mido Ranger. Mido Ranger kicks the green ball towards Ao Ranger. Ao Ranger kicks the blue ball towards Aka Ranger. The ball turns red and spikey. Aka Ranger kicks it towards Skull Mask. Skull Mask uses his staff to knock Gorenger Storm away. Aka Ranger jumps up and kicks Gorenger Storm back towards Skull Mask. This time it strikes Skull Mask and he is destroyed in the explosion. Later, the Gorengers patrol on their Machines. Skull Mask's fearful plan was foiled, thanks to the combined efforts of the Gorengers. However, the Black Cross Army is already scheming toward its next conspiracy.

Variblune quickly took to the skies, having learned the EAGLE Kanto Branch Base 16 was attacked by Rainbow Mask's troops. Soon, Tsuyoshi Kaijo employs the Variscope. Explosions continue to take place on the ground. Several of EAGLE's soldiers fall to the ground. Tsuyoshi instructs Akira to continue to look for their base. Daita Oiwa and the rest of the team deploy. Ki Ranger, Aka Ranger, Momo Ranger, and Mido Ranger arrive on the ground. There is chaos all around them. Aka Ranger tells the EAGLE soldiers to let them handle it. Several Zolders continue to fire at the EAGLE soldiers. The four Gorengers chase after them. Racing past fallen bodies. Once they pass the fallen EAGLE soldiers start to get up. The EAGLE soldiers reveal that they are actually Zolders. Aka Ranger notes it's a trap and to be careful. Sun Halo Mask watches from above and tells the Zolders to go get them! The Zolders pursue the four Gorengers. Aka Ranger kicks a pair of Zolders. Ki Ranger punches a couple of Zolders. Mido Ranger lands a powerful kick on a Zolder. Momo Ranger fights another set of Zolders. Mido Ranger throws his Midomerang towards Sun Halo Mask. Sun Halo Mask bats it away with his staff. The four Gorengers regroup. Sun Halo Mask makes his way towards them and then slowly goes away from them. Aka Ranger wants to stop him. The four Gorengers run after Sun Halo Mask but eventually they cannot find Sun Halo Mask. The rest of the Gorengers gathered together. Aka Ranger asks the group if they found Rainbow Mask, but none of them had. Ki Ranger is confident that Rainbow Mask got scared of the Gorengers and ran away. Aka Ranger suggests they find Ao Ranger and meet again. The four Gorengers use their Birdies to take to the skies. Soon, Momo Ranger spots Ao Ranger. The four Gorengers land close by and race towards Ao Ranger. Ao Ranger is hurt and Aka Ranger suggests they summon Variblune. Ao Ranger pulls out his handheld transistor radio and calls for Variblune. Variblune is chained up in the hangar. Ao Ranger notes there is no response. The signal is being blocked. They were after the Variblune from the beginning. Ao Ranger has a hard time standing and Aka Ranger, Momo Ranger, and Mido Ranger help him stand up. Ki Ranger vows he is not going to let that happen. Let me recapture it! Aka Ranger agrees and suggests that the three of them will go. Ki Ranger, Aka Ranger, and Mido Ranger activate their Birdies. Once more they are in the skies. As they approach Rainbow Fortress, Aka Ranger notes the barrier. Ki Ranger states he will destroy it with his head-butt. Instead Ki Ranger is bounced off the barrier. Mido Ranger tosses his Midomerang and the barrier tosses it back. Aka Ranger states, normal strategy won't work. Let's return for now. The rest agree. Inside the Gorengers' Secret Base, Akira apologizes for allowing them to steal Variblune. Commander Edogawa responds the question is, what are they up to? I wonder what they're going to do with Variblune? They soon get their answer as Daita receives intel that Tokyo is being bombed. The team watches the destruction on their screen. Akira notes it's Variblune causing the destruction. I'm absolutely sure of it, though it's camouflaged. Akira tries once more to communicate with Variblune and have it return to their base. There is no response and Akira is afraid the signal is being blocked. Variblune continues the destruction. Daita, Tsuyoshi, Akira, Kenji, Peggy, and Commander Edogawa watch with horror. Daita states, we must get the Variblune back now! Akira decides he will go. Akira leaves. Daita, Tsuyoshi, Kenji, and Peggy follow on their Machines. Soon, Tsuyoshi gets on a boat as the rest continue on the ground. Daita, Kenji, and Peggy spot Akira dangling from a cable car and race towards it. They immediately spot Akira, dangling from the cable car. Several Zolders with guns, suddenly surround them. Daita leaps towards the Zolders. Peggy lands a powerful kick on one of the Zolders. Daita takes another Zolder and squeezes with all his might. Peggy lands a karate chop on another Zolder. The Zolders are defeated. Daita, Peggy, and Kenji wait and soon Tsuyoshi joins them in the wait. Daita, Tsuyoshi, Kenji, and Peggy keep watch and when Rainbow Fortress appears, they quickly transform. Using their Birdies, they quickly fly to where Rainbow Mask is. The Gorengers quickly surround Rainbow Mask. Ao Ranger fires his Blue Cherry at Rainbow Mask. It hits his staff.

The Gorengers retreat high up in the trees. Rainbow Mask uses his staff to summon Cannon Fire. Several more explosions erupt on the ground. The Gorengers race after Rainbow Mask. In the distance, Sun Halo Mask watches, calls them fools, and leaves. Rainbow Mask hides behind a boulder. Ao Ranger wants to take care of Rainbow Mask. Ao Ranger uses Blue Cherry. Ao Ranger uses his handheld transistor radio and guides the arrow. He had installed a rudder on the arrow, so it curved around the rock. Rainbow Mask is furious and charges towards them with his staff. The Gorengers summon Gorenger Storm. Momo Ranger places a pink ball on to the ground and kicks it to Ki Ranger. Ki Ranger head butts the yellow ball towards Mido Ranger. Mido Ranger kicks the green ball towards Ao Ranger. Ao Ranger kicks the blue ball towards Aka Ranger.

Afterwards, the Gorengers patrol the area on their Machines. Combining their five strengths together, the Gorengers defeated Rainbow Mask. But it's too early to have peace of mind. They know Sun Halo Mask will come up with another dreadful plan.
