"Who's arguing?" Derek raised a questioning eyebrow. "Just like you said, we got our asses kicked out there and we're talking about how to handle it. Nothing wrong with having spirited discussions, especially when we're all trying to achieve the same thing." Derek said to Colt as this was the one time no one was arguing wanted to nip the ill perception in the bud.
"It's like I was talking about before, what we need is something to counter that power Tengusuke has. Something like Phoenix Force would be awesome right about now!" Derek said to the group, remembering the mighty armor.

"It's like I was talking about before, what we need is something to counter that power Tengusuke has. Something like Phoenix Force would be awesome right about now!" Derek said to the group, remembering the mighty armor.
"Unfortunately, the Phoenix Drop is back in Crystonite with the Astraios and the Royal Family. Which is a bust," Tyler spoke up. "There has to be some kind of weakness he has or any member of the Saigaima Guild has. Tyrannodor."
"Tyler, you really need to calm down. I know you're frustrated, but you need to not let-"
"Oh, do NOT give me that "faith" bullshit again! Do you not see what the fuck is happening to us!?" Tyler said, cutting Tyrannodor off already looking pissed."You know EVERYTHING about the Saigaima Guild so you need to know about their weaknesses! Come on, at least for once try and be FUCKING HELPFUL!"
"Tyler, please calm down," Mackenzie said. "You're already injured."
"AND WHAT!? HUH!? Kagemaru is one thing but FUCKING TENGUSUKE!?" Tyler yelled out. "Come on, Mackenzie! Don't tell me to calm down when we're already at our wit's end!"
"Tyler-" Mackenzie pleased once more.
But just as Tyler was about to yell once more, he began to cough up blood violently, as his wounds began to get worse and Hayley rushed in. "Dammit, Tyler! You're letting your anger get to you!" she scolded angrily. "You need to rest. I know you're frustrated. We're ALL frustrated, but you can't take it out on others who are trying to help!"
"Hales, you just... fuck!" Tyler winced weakly. "How can I just sit here when he's already out there? Ready for round two when we're here like sitting ducks?"

"Right now, you being five alarm hot isn't helping." Derek said to Tyler, resting a hand on his shoulder. "Let's stop and think for a sec. Tengusuke was dead in the water until he got his bullshit new power, so he's not 100% either. We need to take what little time we have to lick our wounds because we're gonna need you at your best if we wanna survive this, no matter what we roll out there with."

Colt heard what Tyler had to say before he shot a "Nice crowd control." look at DC. "I don't wanna side with Tyler on this one, but he's got a point. Tyrannodor, you know all about these guys. Their powers. The Ryusaulian history. There's gotta be something... Some power up or hidden power that you know of, but you aren't sure we are ready for. You gotta throw us a bone here. He may not be 100%, I'll agree with that. But just as much as we are licking our wounds, he's probably healing up too. And even if he's not 100%, his 75 or 50 or hell at this point maybe 25 percent is still lethal even if we are at a 100%. There's gotta be something we are missing here." Colt said looking at Tryannodor in his eyes.

Amara had been silent through the entire exchange. The Pink Ranger stepped back and folded her arms across her chest, trying to think of a plan that wouldnt' get them killed. She also knew that the boys were right about Tyrannodor, the rex always knowing more then he wants to talk about.
"Tyrannodor, you keep saying "You need to trust us" but you don't want to have the same trust in us that you're basically demanding out of the five of us," the young woman said after a minute. "Even if you don't think we're ready to know soemthing, you need to stop pussyfooting and give us everything, instead of peicemealing shit to us when you think it's convenient. I had enough of that shit with Divatox, and I'm getting kind of fed up with you doing the same thing. So start talking. No more secrets, no more bullshit. The longer you wait to open that giant ass mouth of yours, the longer it gives Tengusuke to get back to full power. And if I get killed by a giant asshole with wings, I'm going to haunt your robotic ass until the end of your circuits, dude."

Derek remained silent as the Rangers universally agreed upon this one topic. Tyrannodor had a bad, Divatox-like habit of keeping things too close to the chest, often citing a lack of readiness on the part of the Rangers, most of whom are tenured veterans. No one said much about it the first few times because of other issues higher on the priority board, but with Tengusuke on the loose and Crow not being the main topic of discussion, it brought the robotic dinosaur's bad habit into the spotlight that he could no longer run from.
When Derek did speak up, it was in support of his teammates, seeking answers. "What was it you said about being part of the team?" He referenced Tyrannodor's previous pleas about being on the same footing as everyone else. "Whatever you've got in your back pocket, it's time to bust it out."

Hayley listened to what the others had said and turned to Tyrannodor, "Tyrannodor, it's time that you tell them what they need to do. If there's any trump cards they can use to fight off Tengusuke that not only will help them, but help us finish what we were supposed to do," she said.
Tyrannodor sighed, "It's not that simple, Miss Hayley. I wasn't expecting for Tengusuke to gain such a form like that I suspect he has gotten the form from Dokuyami, for I know Kagemaru would never give him such power. I'm still trying to figure out if there are any weak points Tengusuke has. If I think about it, his wings can be the main source of his weakness," he explained.
"You think that might be the case. Can there be any other ones?" Mackenzie asked. "What about his mask? Him, Yokaku, and even Kagemaru are wearing masks all the time."
"Yeah, that might be a possibility, but I digress," Tyler joined in.

"Do we have any way of being sure?" Derek asked. "We're still at a major power disadvantage and if we take a shot and guess wrong, that's our asses." The Red Ranger thought targeting Tengusuke's wings or mask were both valid options but wanted to solidify a target.

"Masks, wings...We're grasping at straws here." Colt said as he shook his head. "Just about every red ranger in history had a power up mode. A battlizer. Something that was either forged in forgotten history, something that was unlocked within, or hidden somewhere in a waterfall or a secret passage or something. You telling me we ain't got one of those, Tyrannodor?" Colt said remembering the history he learned watching old ranger footage.

"Unfortunately... we do not," Tyrannodor answered.
"So a Battlizer is the only way for us to defeat that chickenhead? Great, if that doesn't make anything worse, I don't know what is," Tyler said, shaking his head.
"When we are at our wit's end then, that's the only option. I have been working on trying to update our arsenal, but I feared something like this would happen. If only I had tried to find more Armor Steel Keys to help at least slow him down, then none of you would go through this predicament," Hayley said until her computer screen began to pick up an incoming call, catching the Ranger's attention.

Amara looked at the computer, raising an eyebrow. "Now what?" she asked.

"More armor keys would have only delayed the inevitable. We need some heavy art..." Derek's statement was interrupted by an incoming call.
"Let's hope it's good news and if it's not, let's hope it's a quick call." Derek folded his arms, waiting to hear what this was about.

"If the other person on the other end of that call doesn't mention tanks, rockets, or machine guns, we aint interested." Colt stated.

The incoming calls came in and it was none other than Tengusuke on the line, still in his monstrous form, "Well, I feel offended, Black Ranger," he said as he laughed. Hayley snarled when she saw the yokai.
"What do you want, Tengusuke?" she asked.
"Aw, I just came here to give you one little message before I'm off," Tengusuke sneered.

"What do you want?" Derek looked visibly unamused. "We have better things to do than listen to you run your mouth."
