Later that day, Blue Ranger, Green Ranger, Pink Ranger, and Yellow Ranger had been battling Dreadhead in the city. Dreadhead had knocked them all down to the ground and pointed his weapon at them. Dreadhead: Let's see who makes the cut? Red Ranger comes leaping in from behind with his Spin Sword drawn. Red Ranger: Oh yeah! Blue Ranger: Jayden! Yellow Ranger: Watch out! Red Ranger's Spin Sword is ineffective against Dreadhead. Red Ranger keeps trying, but Dreadhead's body waves in and out, and no strikes are made. Red Ranger: Hey, what gives? Green Ranger: Oh man. Even Jayden's sword won't work. Yellow Ranger: Yeah, it goes right through his body. Dreadhead: You attack like a toothless gator, so useless. Check you later. Dreadhead pointed his weapon at Red Ranger. Dreadhead fires at Red Ranger, but Red Ranger manages to back flip out of the way. Red Ranger lands by the rest of the Rangers. Blue Ranger: Nice move! Red Ranger: Guys, let's use our swords and attack together. Yellow Ranger, Pink Ranger, Green Ranger, Blue Ranger: Right! Dreadhead: Hey, what you trying to pull now? All Five Rangers: Spin Sword, Quintuple Slash! The blast knocks Dreadhead back and electrical charges run through his body. Red Ranger: Got him. Dreadhead: Oh, you Rainbow Rangers tickle my tummy! Dreadhead fires at the Rangers. Dreadhead: You can't faze me. So all that's left for you now is the crying. Red Ranger holds up the Fire Smasher as Dreadhead fires. Blue Ranger: This is serious. What are we going to do? Red Ranger pulls out the Beetle disc. Pink Ranger: Oh, what is that? I've never seen that before. Dreadhead bends over. Dreadhead: Ohhh, it feels like I ate cactus needles. I'm drying out. Next time you won't be so lucky. Later Rangers. Dreadhead leaves. Jayden and his friends return to the Shiba House. Mentor Ji is with them as they discuss what had happened. Mike: Man, that monster was working some bad mojo. Mia: I don't mean to sound like that Nighlok, but our Spin Swords and symbol power were, well, useless. Kevin: It's scary to think what he could have done to use if he hadn't dried out. Emily replies no thanks. I rather think on how we can beat him. Mentor Ji likes Emily's attitude. He tells the group fear is the enemy. If you believe in yourselves, you can win any battle. Confidence is what brings power. Mike tells him, you were not there. Our weapons couldn't touch him. Jayden stands up and tells Mike that is not true. Our weapons did injure him. Jayden confesses that he is working on mastering a new power. Jayden walks to the front of the room and then turns around and faces his friends. He is holding out the beetle disc. Mia realizes that's what he's been doing today. Kevin wants to know what it is? Mentor Ji replies there are secret discs. Passed down form previous generations of samurai. Jayden adds most have been lost in battle. This may be the only one left. Mentor Ji walks over to stand by Jayden. Jayden tells his friends with this, we at least stand a chance of beating the Nighlok. Mentor Ji adds however, in order to master the disc, one needs double the samurai power they already have. Which causes Jayden some concern, although he does not express it. Jayden tells his friends not to worry, just focus on recovery. Mike is skeptical - twice as much power? Can you really handle that? Jayden replies confidently thanks to Ji, I have been trained to believe I can do anything I put my mind to. Mentor Ji nods his head in agreement. But Mike is still skeptical. He asks Jayden why didn't you sue it earlier? Jayden feels bad and replies next time. Jayden walks away. Jayden walks down a hall and then pauses. He takes a look at the beetle disc and wonders if he has it in him to master this disc. I'll train all day and night if I have too. Night falls and there is a full moon. Jayden is training once more. Jayden is using his Fire Smasher and trying to master the beetle disc. It is a struggle for him. The power hits him and sends him flying. Jayden lands on the ground hard. Jayden drags himself towards the Fire Smasher. Jayden tries once more to master the beetle disc. It is still very difficult for him. Jayden gets thrown once more. Jayden struggles to stand up. He tells himself his team, the whole world is depending on me. I can do this! I must do this? Jayden tries once more with the beetle disc and Fire Smasher. Jayden screams as he tries to master the power of the beetle disc. The following day, Jayden has fallen asleep from exhaustion. he is still outside in the area he was training at. Mentor Ji wakes up Jayden. He tells Jayden the Nighlok is back. It takes a bit for Jayden to wake up. He is still very tired. he slowly gets to his feet and leans on his Fire Smasher. Jayden tells Mentor Ji time to clash again and then takes off. The rest of the Ranges are already in the city battling Dreadhead. Lion Folding Zord arrives and hits Dreadhead a few times. Then Red Ranger arrives with his Fire Smasher. Dreadhead tells him his big blade is not going to get any respect form him. Red Ranger and Dreadhead face each other down as Yellow Ranger, Green ranger, Pink Ranger, and Blue Ranger watch. Nothing happens for a few moments. Dreadhead calls Red Ranger a scaredy cat. Blue Ranger wonders why Red Ranger doesn't charge. Green Ranger calls out encouragement. Red Ranger is about to pull out the beetle disc. Pink Ranger realizes why Red Ranger is holding back. Dreadhead tells Red Ranger he has seen glaciers that move faster than him. Red Ranger realizes he's got to try. Red Ranger takes out the beetle disc and places it on the fire Smasher. Red Ranger cries out Fire Smasher! Cannon Blast Mode! Huge flames engulfed Fire Smasher. Red Ranger swings the fiery Fire Smasher around in circles. The flames hit Dreadhead. Red Ranger holds on tight and draws on all his strength, as the Fire Smasher transforms into the Five Disc Beetle Cannon. Pink Ranger, Green Ranger, Blue Ranger, and yellow Ranger are impressed. Red Ranger asks them to lend their power discs. The rest of the Rangers are happy to help out. Each Ranger places a power disc onto a slot on top of the Five Disc Beetle Cannon. Dreadhead is not impressed. he asks Red Ranger what do you got there, boy? A rainbow pea shooter? Red Ranger faces down Dreadhead with the Five Disc Beetle Cannon. Dreadhead aims his weapon at Red Ranger. Red Ranger calls out Fire Strike! The Five Disc Beetle Cannon blocks Dreadhead's blast and hits Dreadhead. Dreadhead exclaims his dreadlocks feel like deadlocks! Green Ranger, Blue Ranger, Yellow Ranger, and Pink Ranger are very excited, but Red Ranger knows it's not over yet. Soon Dreadhead is giant size. The Rangers use their Samuraizers to summon their folding zords. The Samurai Megazord is formed. The Samurai Megazord and Dreadhead battle. Dreadhead is still able to waver his body so that the Samurai Megazord is unable to touch him. Red Ranger is surprised that it didn't work. Dreadhead fires at Samurai Megazord. Samurai Megazord takes several hits. Red Ranger tells the rest of the Rangers they got to try something else. Red Ranger leaves the cockpit and is on top of the Samurai Megazord's shoulders. he shouts out to Dreadhead, he Nighlok! Over here! Red Ranger tosses the beetle disc into the sky. he uses his Spin Sword to fire at it and it transforms into the Beetle zord. Dreadhead is surprised to see another zord. The Beetle zord lands in front of Samurai Megazord. Red Ranger jumps off Samurai Megazord and enters the Beetle zord. The Beetle zord heads straight towards Dreadhead. Dreadhead fires at Beetle zord. Beetle zord takes several hits, but keeps heading towards Dreadhead. Beetle zord's pinchers grabs a hold of Dreadhead's foot and flips him over. Dreadhead lands hard on the ground. Dreadhead gets back up and summons several giant Moogers. The giant Moogers prepare to fire several arrows at Samurai Megazord and Beetle zord. Beetle zord fires at them before they have a chance to fire. Red Ranger declares now the real battle begins. The Beetle zord combines with the Samurai Megazord to form Beetle Blaster Megazord. Dreadhead is taken aback at the new combination. The Moogers back away. Dreadhead tells them to get them! The Moogers prepare to fire once more. Red Ranger instructs the Beetle Blaster Megazord to fire it's Beetle Cannon. The blast destroys the arrows and several of the Moogers. Beetle Blaster Megazord battles the remaining Moogers and destroys them. Beetle Blaster Megazord then faces Dreadhead, telling him now it's your turn. Dreadhead tells them haven't you figure it out, your sword is useless against me! Dreadhead fires at Beetle Blaster Megazord. Beetle Blaster Megazord fires back with it's cannon. Dreadhead is hit hard. The Rangers then call out Rotating Beetle Blaster! Dreadhead is destroyed. The following day, Jayden and his friends are at Rainbow's End. Jayden and Emily walk up with cotton candy for Mike, Kevin, and Mia. Kevin takes the cotton candy and comments this isn't allowed in my training diet. Jayden tells him it's okay. Cotton candy or a day off from training can be good for you. Mentor Ji reminded him that keeping balance in life is important. It lets us be at our best. Mike throws an arm around Kevin and tells him come on you stick in the mud, the rides are this way. Mike and Kevin take off with Mia and Emily close behind. Emily is very excited to go on her first roller coaster ride. Jayden follows his friends. They all get on a roller coaster together and scream with delight.
