Vua'Thun held his hand up and blocked Becca's attack, zipping forward almost invisible before he caught GQ by the neck and swung him around, slamming his legs and feet into Becca's head. "If you worked for Broker, oh....I'll savor your deaths more," he laughed, a spike growing out of his knee before he brought his knee up, impaling GQ before throwing him at Knute's feet.

"DAMNIT!" Vua'Thun was moving at such a speed, he didn't have time to shout at Becca for doing the exact thing that got Kestra and Kiara killed. Instead, he pulled out he opened fire with VS Blaster to no effect. To add insult to injury, GQ was the next to be picked off. In that moment, he felt bad for Knute, knowing he'd take it the hardest while also realizing that this was beginning to look hopeless with all of this chaos.

Time stood still… Knute’s cries fell from deaf’s ears. All he could see was GQ’s fallen form at his feet, a halo of blood spreading out around him on the ground. Knute had been frozen. Unable to move from where he stood, unable to move towards GQ. How the hell had this happened? No matter how many times he replayed the scene in his mind, felt the spray of blood, of GQ’s blood on his face– it didn’t make any sense.
Knute couldn’t remember the exact moment or really how it had happened, just that suddenly he had dropped his HydronStriker and been scrambling to pull GQ up against his chest. He would’ve jumped in to fight, to help the others fight off Vua’Thun as he could. He thought that he should be feeling something right now, he should be crying or yelling, but he just felt...wrong. Numb. Too lost to move. He remained where he was as he gazed on the battle.

Vua'Thun moved at speed to dodge Darius' shots, slashing out and cutting the Red Ranger across the chest before he rammed his blade into Darius' chest and grabbed him by the throat. "I hope you've enjoyed watching your friends fall, "Showstopper", because I'm having the time of my goddamn life," he laughed, ripping his sword out of Darius and letting him fall.
He turned to Becca, getting ready to go after the Pink Ranger before getting shot in the back by Leo. He turned, facing the Silver Ranger who had both X-Cross Morphers in hand, aimed at his chest. "Do you think you can stand a chance, Silver?"
"You have killed my friends. This cannot stand," Leo growled. He rushed forward, leaping up and kicking Vua'Thun in the face before flipping and opening fire, starting to blast the Saizama's leader in the chest.
Vua'Thun shrugged off the attack, lashing out and grabbing Leo by the helmet, starting to squeeze. He slammed his hand into Leo's helmet, shattering it and laughing as he started squeezing the Silver Ranger's throat. "A valiant effort, Mr. LeCroix, but a failed one. Now meet your friends in Death's embrace." He twisted Leo's head and snapped his neck, throwing him down into Darius' eyesight, the last thing the Red Ranger would see being his friend's lifeless body.
"And now with the Guild taken care of. I can focus on the Echo Squad," Vua'Thun smirked, stepping forward.

Becca hit the ground and screamed and pain erupted from her as she watched those that have become a team go down. They were going down for good. She got to her feet and rushed over to Knute. "We can do this!" She said shaking her head trying to form a plan. "NERO!" She yelled at the red ranger. "What's the play here?" She asked.

"L...Leo..." Darius saw the light fading, feeling the life exit his body. There were many ways he envisioned dying. Whether it was a failed daring escape or falling victim to the pleasures of several women at the same time, Darius had his idea of how he wanted to go out and none of them involved fighting to defend others that didn't immediately benefit him. As he closed his eyes for the final time, he felt regret for not going out on his own terms.

Vua'Thun stopped and stared at Nero who hadn't moved, Knute on the ground with GQ's dead body, and Becca still attempting to put up a fight. "If you are truly that desparate to see your best friend again, Pink Ranger, all you must do is ask." He grabbed Becca's arms, snapping her wrists. "Give me a scream. I want to enjoy the terror."

Becca winced and a shrill scream of pain erupted from deep within her. She had given him exactly what he wanted and she hated herself for it. "Burn in hell GOAT!" She snarled through gritted teeth, knowing death was going to be his response.

"You sick, greedy, sociopathic son of a bitch." Nero stated as he still had his SiRunner armor on. He began charging it until it started to overcharge. "If I'm going down, your coming with me..." Nero said as he took off in a run and firing blast after blast at Vua'thun.

Vua'Thun dropped Becca, intending on killing her next, and he laughed as he blocked and deflected each of Nero's shots, only one getting through but barely affecting him. He ripped the cannons off of armor, using them to beat Nero into the ground. He stomped on the Red Ranger's chest, shattering the rest of the armor before dropping a knee into Nero's chest. "You're right about one thing. You're going down. But I will live." He stood and charged his powers into his fist, slamming it into Nero's chest with enough force to shatter the ground, grabbing a shattered peice of the SiRunner armor and stabbing it into his chest, twisting it for good measure, killing the second Red Ranger.
Agnathas sighed as she stood on the rooftop, kneeling down as her book glowed lightly. "I was afraid of this," she whispered. "I'll have to use the Sarcophogus' power, and it'll be to resurrect the Rangers and give them enough protection to kill my husband...."
Standing and turning to face Becca and Knute, the Green Ranger still unresponsive. He walked forward and picked up the Doublade, smirking as he spun it to hold the blade into the air. "Pink Ranger, you've observed all of your friends deaths. Are you prepared for yours?" he asked, grabbing Becca by the throat before ramming the blade into her ribs and ripping it out, stabbing her twice more. "Tell Ms. Fenix in Hell that she brought this to all of you."

Knute didn't remember after that, in fact his body just moved on his own. He leaped toward Vua'Thun by going for a two rounds of high jump kick to the head and back, attempting to loosen Vua'Thun's grip on Becca. He didn’t care what happened next. After all he lost everything.

Knute's attack did one thing. Vua'Thun dropped Becca to the ground, and he turned to grab the Green Ranger's leg on the next kick. He snapped Knute's leg, punching him hard in the chest and sending him flying, smashing into the side of a car. "Green Ranger. You survived this long because you watched a murderous thief die. If anything, I did you a favor," he laughed, walking up to Knute. "Tell you what....why don't I reunite you two in the next world?" He grabbed a broken peice of glass from the window of hte car, flipping it up before ramming it into Knute's chest, his green suit staining with crimson blood. ________
At SPD, Kida, Sky, and Kat all watched in horror as Vua'Thun took the eight Rangers down in mere moments, Kida sinking to her knees as she watched her daughter die. Kat clenched her hands in her coat, tears falling down her cheeks.
"Sky, what do we do?" Kat asked softly.
Sky looked away, his hands clenched as he looked at the screens, the Rangers bodies showing on every screen. "I....I don't know..." _________
Watching from her rooftop, Agnathas sighed as she opened her book, reaching through Dimensions and summoning the Sarcophogus, taking it's miniaturized form in hand. She walked off of the building, slowly making her way down to ground level and standing where the Rangers did, facing down her former husband. "Vuator."
"Agnathas," Vua'Thun smirked, facing his wife. "And my Sarcophogus. So you've come to your senses?"
"Yes., I can't stand by while you do things like this," Agnathas said. She held her hand out, the Rangers bodies moving on their own and hovering in front of her, glass and weapons being removed from their bodies as bones were lined up. "And I made my choice. The Sarcophogus can only be used once. I know what I plan to do with it."
"You? You don't have the power to use it!"
"I don't?" Agnathas asked. She smiled, holding the Sarcophagus up. "Iz kozmosa prizivam moć za korištenje sarkofaga. Neka se njegova moć iskoristi za dobrobit čovječanstva i uništenje Zla, i neka ovih osam ljudi nađe snage da porazi zlo jednom zauvijek."
Light filled the streets, blinding everyone and every camera in the area, including Vua'Thun. The sounds of bones snapping back into place, skin healing and suits reparing themselves filled the air, and after a moment, the eight Rangers landed on the ground, returned to life and filled with the energy to face their enemy for the final time.
"What the fuck?!" Kestra asked, looking down at herself. "Holy shit...what happened?!"
"I did," Agnathas said, watching the Sarcophagus crumble in her hand. "Vua'Thun killed you, and instead of interfeering before you all died, I waited...and I used the one wish of the Sarcophagus to bing you all back to life and give you the power that you need to kill him once and for all. This is your second chance at life, Rangers. The sad aspect is...at the end of this, a resurrection wish is good for seven, not eight. One of you will die again at the end of the battle."
"Good enough for me," Kiara said, rolling her shoulder. "Nero, Darius, let's make this the best goddamn battle we can do. Let's bring out all the toys."
"NO! My Sarcophagus. Agnathas, you worthless whore! You waste the wish on these pathetic SPD Rangers?!"
"I use the wish on my friends, Vuator. A shame you don't know the meaning of the word. Rangers...end this bastard for good."
(OOC: Agnathas spell is this in English: "From the cosmos, I summon the power to use the Sarcophagus. May its power be used for the good of humanity and the destruction of Evil, and may these eight humans find the strength to defeat evil once and for all.")

GQ wasn’t sure how long he’d been dead for, although he got the distinct feeling that it hadn’t actually been all that long. He felt a renew sensation, like his body was no longer battered. Probably magic or something. The first thing he opened his eyes to was Knute staring at him out of astonishment.
Knute thought that was the end. He failed everyone. He failed GQ. He'd done everything he could and yet, nothing was worth it. His life was already over before he lost. When he finally opened his eyes, he became astonished to see everyone moving. It wasn't until he spot GQ that he realized they're alive.
There were many words to say but they knew it would come to wait. After listening to the explanation from Agnathas, the couple knew it's now or never. With Knute picking up the HydroStriker and GQ lifted the DualBlade from the ground, they waited for their Red teammates to initiate the call.

For Darius, the afterlife was about to become a grand adventure with all of the freedom he had sorely missed and in an instant, it was gone. He opened his eyes and placed his hands where his fatal wounds were.
"She actually did it..." The Red Guild Ranger was regaining his bearings, realizing that he was indeed given a second chance at life. When he saw the others all alive and they were all facing Vua'Thun, a smile crept across his face behind his helmet, not because of his renewed life but because someone finally listened to him, as evident by the choice to simply resurrect them and not try to rewrite history.
Unfortunately, this new lease on life wouldn't stick for one of them, but he couldn't worry about that now. In this moment, his main focus was returning the favor to the guy that sent him first class to the Pearly Gates. He armed himself with not only his VS Blaster but also his Magnum and his robotic partner, ready to end this once and for all.

Looking at her hands and then to the others after everything that happened, she jerked her gaze over at the others in shock. "Oh my god." She said pinching herself to make sure this was all real. "Your wish, our command!" She said to Agnathas before focusing back on the battle.
