Power Rangers Dino Steel

Amaranth growled, struggling against the increased gravity before she managed to get a fireball off, hitting Jaxon and breaking his hold on her. She hit the ground and yelled, crushing one of her wings before she slowly stood up. "YOu little bastard!" she snarled, rushing the Blue Ranger and grabbing his throat.

In the struggle of Amaranth grabbing his throat and as she was occupied, Jaxon ejected the BrachiChain soul and inserted the Pterice soul into his sword mouth. "PTERICE ARMOR!" The voice rang out as it activated the freezing armor as Jaxon quickly saw Amaranth's hands freeze over. "Physics 101...." Jaxon trying to talk while being grabbed by the throat. "What happens to skin when exposed to something like dry ice?!" Jaxon stated as he quickly swiped Amaranth's torso with his saber.

"He isn't on the menu today, Bitch!" The Pink Ranger activated the DimetroBlaze Armor, charging at Amaranth, hitting her with a spinning slash to break her grip that she had on Jaxon. "People have been intent on pissing me off today and you win the grand fucking prize!" She yelled out with the flames across her blade intensifying.

"Thanks for the assist. Let's see. I got Ice and you got Fire.... A two for one special perhaps?" Jaxon stated as he rubbed his throat after being grabbed by Amaranth.

Rina nodded, grabbing her saber and cutting the chains. She tossed her saber back down and held her hand out to Kida. “If you want to let out everything you felt towards Miki’s death out, i’ll be your punching bag. Just remember what ai said earlier. I’m your friend and you know that you would hate that somebody is taking advantage of you.”

Jameson watched the interaction, hoping his powers would last long enough for this to work.

Kida looked at Rina's outstretched hand, and she weakly tried to push it away. She tried to shove Rina back, only to trip and crash into the ground. Her Soul popped out of the Morpher, the morph dropping as tears streaked dwon her cheeks, looking up at Rina. "Rina..." she whispered. "What...what have I done...?" She crumbled into a ball, shaking with sobs as the weight of the last few hours sank into her heart, remembering every single action and word she's spoken to everyone. "Everone must hate me...I never meant any of those things...I'm sorry...."

Rina knelt down beside Kida, wrapping her arms around the Red Ranger and rubbing her back softly. "It's ok, Kida," she whispered. "It's going to be ok. YOu're free from her spell now. You're back to yourself. We'll help you through this, I promise."

"None of them are gonna trust me again," Kida whispered, clinging to Rina's arm. "I won't even trust me...I can feel every weight of the sword in my hand as I killed them...every word I said to all four of you...things I swore I wouldn't let out, things I only whispered in the darkness. I ruined everything...all because I didn't want to stay in the fucking park...Rina--"

"Kida," Rina said, wipng her friend's eyes. "While it happened, it was Amaranth. She did this to you because your emotions left you vulnerable today. It's ok to be vulnerable once in a while. We all need to be."

Kida nodded softly, looking over and seeing Amaranth being dealt with by Jaxon and JT. "Where's my Driver?" she asked, sitting up and wiping her eyes softly. She knew she had to suck it up and accept what happened, and there was only one way she was going to be able to do it.

In the struggle of Amaranth grabbing his throat and as she was occupied, Jaxon ejected the BrachiChain soul and inserted the Pterice soul into his sword mouth. "PTERICE ARMOR!" The voice rang out as it activated the freezing armor as Jaxon quickly saw Amaranth's hands freeze over. "Physics 101...." Jaxon trying to talk while being grabbed by the throat.

"People have been intent on pissing me off today and you win the grand fucking prize!" She yelled out with the flames across her blade intensifying.

Between the subzero temperature from Jaxon and the steadily increasing heat from JT, Amaranth slowly backed up, narrowing her eyes. "You two think you've won?! I've broken your Red Ranger. Even if she recovers from this, all of it will huant her nightmares for the rest of her life!" she laughed. "The policewoman from the alien cop shop, killing innocent civilians and almost killing her friends. You really think you can trust her again!?"

"You're done, Graecha!" Aaron started walking in the creature's direction. "Without your gimmick, this won't last long!"

Graecha snarled, lunging forward and vanishing into its mist form, trying to get around the wind but getting blown backward instead. Graecha hit the ground and rolled to a stop, snarling as it got up and tried to fling more poison at Aaron.

Between the subzero temperature from Jaxon and the steadily increasing heat from JT, Amaranth slowly backed up, narrowing her eyes. "You two think you've won?! I've broken your Red Ranger. Even if she recovers from this, all of it will haunt her nightmares for the rest of her life!" she laughed. "The policewoman from the alien cop shop, killing innocent civilians and almost killing her friends. You really think you can trust her again!?"

"Will you shut up? We all know it was your bougee ass behind the whole damn thing. Manipulating Kida like a puppet on a string. I'd put my life in Kida's hands any day of the week. Now you got a decision to make... Do you wanna be the latest new frozen delicacy "Bitch Popsicle" or in my friend here's case the main course "Roasted Bitch with wings in a hollandaise sauce"?! " Jaxon said as he got ready for the next attack.

"Kida will be fine. She's tougher than you think!" With her focus shifting onto Amaranth, all of the Pink Ranger's emotions were pointing in the witch's direction. Now that she was able to punch something, she could now convey what she was trying to articulate before. Even though she was upset with Kida for saying those things, she was still confident that the wife and mother could take the Pink Ranger's idea of tough love and come out the other side, otherwise she would have never suggested that course of action. "You on the other hand are a demon pixie that needs to be stepped on!"

"Will you shut up? We all know it was your bougee ass behind the whole damn thing. Manipulating Kida like a puppet on a string. I'd put my life in Kida's hands any day of the week.

" Jaxon said as he got ready for the next attack.

Amaranth yelled out, letting off a blast of Magic that knocked the Blue and Pink Rangers backward. She growled as her hands clenched, dark magic glowing from her taloned fingers. "You two....are so goddamned annoying," she growled. "IF you're going to kill someone, kill them!" She yelled as she flew forward and grabbed both Rangers by the throats and slammed them together, sparks flying off of the armors. She slammed their heads together, throwing them into the ground and stepping on their wrists. "You...do not talk down to me. Nobody threatens me!"

"Growl all you want!" Aaron flicked the incoming shots away with more wind from this new soul. "I'm going to make you wish you stayed dead."

Graecha growled, backing away before disappearing into the earth, running to fight another day.

Rina helped Kida stand up, twirling DiEnd driver on her finger as she handed it to her, looking over at Jameson and nodding. “As soon as she henshins, drop the barrier.”

Kida took her Driver and smiled sadly. "Hope you don't mind if I borrow your catchphrase, sweetie," she said. She looked over at Jameson. "Drop the barrier."

Jameson nodded, the barrier falling as he collapsed to the ground, exhausted but thankful the plan worked. He huffed and puffed, wincing as he held his chest. "Oh, that was a bad idea. Nobody tell Jaxon he was right. I'll never hear the end of it..."

Kida walked forward, firing at Amaranth and knocking her off of her friends. "You really fucked up, bitch," she said. "You turned me against my friends. You caused me to kill innocent people. You took advantage of a broken woman's cracked mental state to suit your own twisted desires."

"How!?" Amaranth growled, staggering back from the blast from the DiEnd Driver. "How did you break the spell?!"

"My friends," Kida said, twirling the Driver and holding up a card. "JT, Jaxon....please step back. I'm going to deal with this bitch myself. And then, after this is all over, I'll gladly take whatever beatings you all think I need for how I treated you."

Amaranth yelled out, letting off a blast of Magic that knocked the Blue and Pink Rangers backward. She growled as her hands clenched, dark magic glowing from her taloned fingers. "You two....are so goddamned annoying," she growled. "IF you're going to kill someone, kill them!" She yelled as she flew forward and grabbed both Rangers by the throats and slammed them together, sparks flying off of the armors. She slammed their heads together, throwing them into the ground and stepping on their wrists. "You...do not talk down to me. Nobody threatens me!"


"How!?" Amaranth growled, staggering back from the blast from the DiEnd Driver. "How did you break the spell?!"

Jaxon was about to retaliate until Kida was broken of the spell and came back to the land of sunshine and goodness. He then overheard Kida saying that she wanted to handle this on her own and how if there was any repercussions that she would gladly accept them. "I'll save the ass beatings for JT. Lord knows you pissed all over her cheerios. Me on the other hand? Since was about wrestling? You gotta take 5 frog splashes and 2 superplexes." Jaxon stated with a chuckle.
