METAL ALICE

Page Three

Robo Knight and the Rangers face down Metal Alice.  Red Ranger:  "Metal Alice!"  Metal Alice:  "Rangers!  Not you again!  I'll handle you quickly.  I'm rather busy."  Metal Alice charges towards the Rangers with her weapon.  Blue Ranger, Yellow Ranger, Pink Ranger, Red Ranger, and Black Ranger fire their Mega Blasters at Metal Alice.  Metal Alice blocks their blasts with ease.  "I see you're losing your touch."  Metal Alice leaps into the air and lands close to the Rangers.  Metal Alice fights the Rangers with her weapon.  "There are plans in motion that you can't stop."  Metal Alice grabs a hold of Yellow Ranger and faces Black Ranger, Blue Ranger, and Red Ranger with her weapon drawn.  "Not so fast."  Robo Knight has his Robo Blaster drawn and pointed at Metal Alice.  Robo Knight:  "Why are you here?  Simply to cause random destruction?"  Metal Alice releases Yellow Ranger and strikes her.  Metal Alice also strikes Blue Ranger, Red Ranger, and Black Ranger.  "I'm not that simple.  Humans panic so easily.  Just one glitch stops your whole system from functioning."  Metal Alice has Black Ranger trapped beneath her foot.  Robo Knight, Pink Ranger, and Yellow Ranger have their weapons pointed at Metal Alice.  They fire, but Metal Alice vanishes before she is struck.  Metal Alice reappears a few feet away from them and blasts them.  The Rangers are knocked to the pavement.  Metal Alice:  "Humans are completely irrational."  Blue Ranger struggles to get back up.  "They don't become like that on their own.  You provoke them."  Metal Alice laughs.  Pink Ranger:  "Let's see if we can break down her system."  Yellow Ranger:  "I agree."  Pink Ranger and Yellow Ranger race towards Metal Alice.  Yellow Ranger fights Metal Alice with her Tiger Claw as Pink Ranger fights her with her Phoenix Shot.  Metal Alice easily knocks the two Rangers down.  Red Ranger leaps in.  "Dragon Sword!"  Red Ranger fights Metal Alice with his Dragon Sword.  Blue Ranger joins in with his Shark Bowgun and Black Ranger with his Snake Ax.  Metal Alice gets a hold of Blue Ranger and forces him to his knees.  "Humans should be our slaves."  Metal Alice strikes Blue Ranger and fights the rest of the Rangers as well.  Soon Blue Ranger, Red Ranger, Pink Ranger, Black Ranger, and Yellow Ranger are knocked down to the pavement.  Metal Alice glances over at Robo Knight.  "How can you be allies with them?"  Robo Knight:  "They posses what you never will.  Compassion."  Metal Alice turns around and faces Robo Knight.  "Pathetic."  Metal Alice throws her weapon towards Robo Knight.  Robo Knight knocks it away with his Robo Blaster.  The weapon flies into the air.  Metal Alice fights Robo Knight.  Robo Knight fires at Metal Alice several times with his Robo Blaster, but she manages to outmaneuver each of the blasts.  Metal Alice lands a hard kick on Robo Knight.  The weapon falls back down and Metal Alice catches it.  Metal Alice fights Robo Knight with her weapon.  "You are a disgrace to all machines and our superior robotic logic."  Suddenly several floors of the power station explodes. Metal Alice and Robo Knight break apart.  Robo Knight lines up with the rest of the Rangers.  Metal Alice:  "I'm done with you. Soon the gridlock and chaos I create will bring this entire world to it's knees.  You'll see."  Red Ranger:  "What?"  Metal Alice:  "Goodbye."  Metal Alice presses a key on her tablet and vanishes.  The Power Rangers went their separate ways to search for Metal Alice.  Metal Alice went to a bridge that had train tracks crossing it.  Metal Alice:  "This will stop those trains for good."  Metal Alice laughs.  Red Ranger:  "What have you done now?!"  Metal Alice:  "Something you're too late to stop!  The timer has already started.  You do have about seven minutes until the bomb explodes."  Red Ranger:  "Bomb!  No!"  Metal Alice:  "So, I'll give you something to keep you out of my hair until then.  Loogies!  Go!"  The Loogies raced forward to fight Red Ranger as Metal Alice vanished once more.  As he fought, Red Ranger contacted the rest of the team.  Robo Knight was in the city, heading towards Red Ranger, when Metal Alice stopped him.  Metal Alice:  "Hold on there Robo Knight.  I'll like to talk to you for a moment.  Being a logical entity, there's something you should seriously be considering in regards to those silly human friends of yours, the Power Rangers."  Metal Alice held her weapon towards Robo Knight as she continued.  "Remember to those humans, you're just a machine.  And what do they do when machines break?  they toss them aside.  They only care about what you can do for them.  You're on the wrong team, but there's still time to join our side.  The choice is yours."  Metal Alice vanishes.  The Rangers are still battling the Loogies.  Metal Alice reappeared on time of an empty train and watched.  Metal Alice:  "Yes, struggle uselessly.  Time is ticking."  Suddenly Lion Mechazord knocks against her.  Robo Knight:  "Lion Zord ! Morph!"  Red Ranger:  "Robo Knight!"  Lion Mechazord reverts back to Robo Knight.  Robo Knight:  "Why do you hate the humans so much?"  Metal Alice:  "Why?  Just look at how inferior they are.  These useless creatures must be eliminated."  Metal Alice and Robo Knight fight.  Metal Alice:  "This planet is not big enough for robots and humans.  It's either us or them.  Anyway they will not be missed."  Metal Alice knocks Robo Knight off the top of the train.  Robo Knight lands on the ground and Metal Alice leaps down to continue to fight him.  Robo Knight:  "Even if only one human is lost, there will be those who miss that person and suffer greatly from it."  Metal Alice:  "I cannot comprehend why human feelings have any value."  Metal Alice struck Robo Knight hard and he went flying.  Red Ranger:  "Robo Knight!"  The Rangers hurried over and form a protective barrier around Robo Knight.  Metal Alice:  "Why do you defend him?"  Red Ranger:  "Because, we protect everyone on this planet."  Yellow Ranger:  "You can't change that by creating chaos."  Pink Ranger:  "When things are at their worst."  Blue Ranger:  "We humans rise up and protect our own."  Black Ranger:  "And everyone is important to someone."  Robo Knight started to fight Metal Alice again.  Robo Knight:  "Hurry Rangers."  Metal Alice:  "Humanity makes no sense to me."  Robo Knight:  "it is true that their actions are often times hard to understand.  Humans appreciate their fellow man.  And we should respect the complex feelings they have for one another.  Like a child missing his mother."   Metal Alice:  "Nonsense!"  Robo Knight:  "Emotions are not a weakness.  Failing to see that will be your downfall!"  Robo Knight struck Metal Alice with his Robo Blade and she fell to the ground.  Robo Knight:  "Rangers, stop that bomb."  Red Ranger:  "Right!"  The Rangers race away.  Robo Knight followed the Rangers.  Metal Alice slowly gets back up.  "Fools!"  Metal Alice reappeared as the Rangers raced to stop the bomb.  Metal Alice:  "Let me shave a few seconds off."  The timer sped up and the bomb went off, blowing up the bridge.  Metal Alice:  "Oh sorry.  Did I forget to tell you about my override system"
