Man And Machine - Page Three

Shadow Serpent tells them it's too late and whips it's tail, striking the five Rangers hard.  The five Rangers hit the ground.  Shadow Serpent taunts, time for another tongue lashing!  Shadow Serpent unleashes it's tongue once more.  The five Rangers race to a shaded area.  Shadow Serpent is pleased.  Excellent.  Bunch up like that, I can take you down with one strike.  Shadow Serpent uses it's tail and strikes the five Rangers beneath the tree.  The five Rangers hit the ground once more.  Robo Knight steps forward with his Robo Blaster.  Target located.  Red Ranger gets up and grabs a hold of Shadow Serpent.  He has his Dragon Sword at the ready.  Red Ranger tells his team to find more shade where you can.  Robo Knight wants Red Ranger to move, so he can fire at Shadow Serpent.  Shadow Serpent tells Red Ranger to get off of me!  Shadow Serpent shakes Red Ranger off.  He lands close to Robo Knight.  Robo Knight tells Red Ranger, you interfered.  The monster was in my sights and you jump in the way.  It's gets cloudy.  Shadow Serpent comments, too bad.  The sun's away, so no more play.  But next time I'll eat you for breakfast.  Shadow Serpent vanishes.  Red Ranger gets back up.  He's gone!  Come on!  Let's regroup!  Red Ranger races away.  Yellow Ranger, Pink Ranger, Black Ranger, Blue Ranger get up and run after Red Ranger.

The teens demorph as they run.  Troy stops for a moment, as he is in a great deal of pain.  Noah, Jake, Emma, and Gia stop as well.  Emma asks him if he is okay?  Troy answers with a quiet yeah.  Gia can't believe how easy that guy took us down.  Robo Knight walks up to them.  He tells them, you got in the way.  The problem is not your opponent, it was you.  Jake gets very angry.  Hey Troy was just trying to defend us so we could all retreat to the shade.  Emma is angry too.  He did it to protect us!  It doesn't matter to Robo Knight.  Therein lies the problem with humans.  You worry too much about each other.  If you hadn't interfere, I would have finished him.  Robo Knight walks away.  Only Gia is impressed with Robo Knight.  What a machine.  Jake adds, what a jerk!  Noah tells Troy that he is glad Troy had figured it out in time.  You saved us.  Emma points out, he'll be back though.  Troy knows.  This one will be hard to beat.

Vrak and Bluefur are walking together.  Vrak tells Bluefur to take him to Shadow Serpent.  I must speak with him before the sun sets and he goes dormant.  Bluefur asks, you really think he can get rid of the Rangers when everyone else has failed.  Vrak is confident that Shadow Serpent can do it.  He has the skills, but only if he uses them before the Rangers figure out how to stop him.  Bluefur doesn't get it.  How could they?  He's so much stronger than them.  Vrak replies, the Power Rangers are quite clever.  We must destroy them now. 

Robo Knight stands on top of a building in sentry mode.  He scans the area unaware that Troy is walking up behind him until Troy calls out his name.  Troy states, about what you said earlier at the park.  I've been thinking about how to beat Shadow Serpent.  Well, you gave me an idea.  Like you, the monster thinks working as a team is a weakness.  And that's how we get him.  I noticed that he opens himself up to attack when he steal shadows.  If we work together, we can act as bait.  And you can make the surprise attack.  Robo Knight asks, you would risk yourselves so I can attack him?  Troy replies yes.
