In the forest, Merrick lay unconscious on the ground, as the Rangers looked around for him.

"Merrick?!" Max called, as they walked past a bush.

"Merrick?!" Danny called.

Cole then spotted him.

"There he is." he said, pointing at him.

They all ran towards Merrick, then Cole and Max crouched near him.

"Merrick." Cole said.

Danny crouched by his feet, as the girls crouched near him, as Cole lifted Merrick up slightly in a sitting position.

"Merrick?" Cole said, shaking him. "Merrick?"

They all stared at Merrick as he lay asleep.

"Merrick?" Cole said.

"Oh!" Merrick moaned.

He woke up and touched his head, as the Rangers smiled.

"Are you okay?" Cole asked.

Merrick looked at him, before he backed away and then got up.

"We're so glad you're alive." Alyssa said, as the Rangers got up.

"The curse is broken." Danny explained.

"Which means you won't turn into Zen-Aku ever again." Bella assured.

Cole smiled before holding his hand out.

"Welcome back." he said. "I'm Cole."

"I don't understand. After all I've done to you, how can you forgive me so easily?" Merrick questioned, confused.

"It wasn't your fault." Danny assured. "It was the Wolf Mask."

"It made you do all those things." Bella reasoned.

Cole nodded as Taylor walked forward, then she took Cole's hand and put it down, before putting her own on top of it.

"Now you can help us fight the Orgs." she said. "We can work together. I'm Taylor."

Max put his hand on top of hers.

"Welcome to the 21st century. I'm Max, the Surging Shark." he said.

"Hey, I'm Danny, the Iron Bison." Danny said, putting his hand on top of Max's.

Bella moved closer, then put her hand on top of Danny's.

"I'm Bella, and we don't blame you for what you did." she said.

"I'm Alyssa. There's so much we can learn from you." Alyssa said.

She put her hand on top of Bella's.

Merrick looked at them all, before he held up his hand, then he looked at the Rangers. Cole nodded, followed by Alyssa, Taylor, Bella, Danny, and then Max. Merrick moved his hand forward slowly, but then pulled it back.

"Ah! I tried to destroy you." he said. "My hand isn't fit to touch yours."

He turned and ran off into the forest.

Later, on the Animarium, the Princess sat in the rocking chair, while Danny and Max sat on the table, Alyssa and Bella on stools near it, while Taylor leaned against the Lion statue.

"I don't understand why he ran from us." Cole said, walking around the table.

"He can't forgive himself for his actions." Alyssa deduced.

"But he couldn't help it." Cole reasoned, as Taylor walked off. "It wasn't his fault."

"But he thinks it is." Bella argued. "Guess he feels responsible for what happened."

"How can we convince him to join us?" Max questioned.

"I don't know if you can." the Princess said.

"You think he'll at least be our friend?" Danny asked.

The Princess sighed and turned away, not sure how to answer.

"Let's just give him some time." Cole said.

"Yeah. Hopefully he'll come around." Bella said.

Meanwhile, at the beach, Jindrax and Toxica were moving along the sand, while singing together.

"We have marched along together through the dark and stormy rain,
And we faced the fight together, sharing all the gain,
We are Orgs fighting together in these wailing days of war."

They both laughed as they moved on.

"Once again, we're the only Duke Orgs!" Jindrax whooped.

"The most powerful Duke Orgs." Toxica grinned.

"Yeah, baby." Jindrax smirked.

"I knew Zen-Aku wouldn't last." Toxica smirked, making Jindrax laugh. "No one can touch us now!"

"Yeah." Jindrax smirked, rubbing his hands as she laughed.

"Having fun?" a voice called.

"Huh?" Jindrax muttered.

"Who was that?" Toxica inquired, as they looked around.

They both turned around, and saw Merrick standing on top of a cliff, staring at them.

"You?" Toxica questioned. "You're Zen-Aku?!"

"Uh..?" Jindrax muttered.

"You were Zen-Aku!" Toxica corrected. "What are you doing here?"

Merrick jumped off the cliff and dived towards them, twirling around as he did. They both turned around as he landed on the sand and stared at him.

"Whoa?" Jindrax gasped, as they backed away.

"Don't worry. I'm still your friend." Merrick assured.

"I don't buy it." Jindrax said, turning to Toxica.

"What do you want, friend?" Toxica asked, as Jindrax folded his arms.

"Take me to Master Org?" Merrick requested.

Toxica walked forward as Jindrax turned to her.

"You have something to say..." she said.

"Uh-oh." Jindrax muttered.

"..say it to us!" Toxica snarled.

"Uh, uh, hold on, Zen-Aku?" Jindrax asked, grabbing her arms. "We'll be right back."

He dragged Toxica away slightly.

"Toxica, are you crazy?" he asked. "Can we trust him? It's probably a trick."

"So what? He's just a Human now." Toxica reasoned, as Merrick walked towards them. "He can't hurt us."

"What if he still has the power of Zen-Aku?" Jindrax argued.

"Oh..." Toxica said, seeing his point. "Uh..."

"See?" Jindrax said.

"Maybe we could..?" Toxica began.

"You wanna test me?" Merrick grinned, cracking his knuckles.

"AGH!" Jindrax and Toxica gasped, turning to him.

"Uh, no." Toxica said.

"Your word's as good as gold." Jindrax assured. "Yep. Oh..."

They both turned around, and saw Master Org and Nayzor approaching them.

"Oh, Master Org. We were just coming to see you." Toxica blushed.

Master Org and Nayzor stopped and stared at Merrick.

"What do you want?" Master Org demanded.

Merrick pushed past Jindrax and Toxica.

"Whoa!" Toxica yelped.

"Hey?" Jindrax complained, before Merrick crouched down.

"Only to serve you, Master." Merrick said, bowing his head.

"Huh?" Jindrax muttered, as he and Toxica turned to each other.

"A wise decision." Nayzor remarked.

He and Master Org turned to each other.

Merrick lifted his head up, then got up and turned around, then snatched Jindrax's blade, and then spun around.

"Hey?!" Jindrax gasped.

Merrick lunged forward and tried to stab Master Org, who turned and grabbed his forearm.

"AH!" Merrick groaned, as Master Org pulled his arm away.

"You weak pathetic Human!" he snarled.

He pulled Merrick closer to him.

"Uh!" Merrick groaned. "Return the four crystals at once!"

"You were helpless then!" Master Org snarled, turning Merrick around, wrapping his arm around him. "And you're helpless now! Without the power of the Wolf Mask, you're nothing."

He threw Merrick away, who flipped forward before he landed on his back.

"Ah!" Merrick moaned.

Jindrax laughed as he rolled onto his chest, then got to his knees.

"I'll get those crystals back!" he roared.

He charged forward as Master Org fired a blast from his left hand, hitting the ground around him, making sparks come up from it.

"AGHH!" Merrick moaned. "AH!"

He fell down onto his back.

"Whoa!" Jindrax said.

"Huh?" Toxica muttered.

Merrick fell onto his back as they both turned to each other.

"Let's give him a hand, shall we?" Jindrax joked, rubbing his hands.

Toxica giggled as they turned to Merrick, then they both approached him and picked him up by the arms.

"Uh!" Merrick groaned.

He sat on his knees, before Jindrax grabbed his hair and pulled his head up.

"UH!" he moaned.

"This is going to end quite differently than it did 3000 years ago!" Master Org declared.

"AH!" Merrick grunted, turning away. "WOLF?!"

~A cliff~

The Wolf Crystal lay on the cliff.

~The beach~

"HAMMERHEAD?!" Merrick yelled.

~The sea~

The Hammerhead Crystal lay at the bottom of the sea near some coral.

~The beach~

"ALLIGATOR!" Merrick yelled.

~A river~

The Alligator Crystal lay near some muddy water in a forest.

~The beach~

"They're not coming." Toxica smirked.

She giggled as Merrick looked around in disbelief.

"I can't hear them anymore." he said.

Master Org laughed evilly. "Your Zords have forsaken you!" he sneered. "And now, I will show you the true power of the Animal Crystals!"

"The crystals, Master." Nayzor said.

He put the five Animal Crystals in Master Org's hand, which then glowed as he clutched them. Green fire burned from both ends of his hand, before it turned into an electric ball, before he threw it away. It hit the ground and created an Org called Quadra Org, which had parts of all four Wildzords on his body.

He had the Black Bear's head on his left shoulder, with the Polar Bear head on his right one. He had the Elephant's head and tusks on his chest, its trunk from his right arm, and one of its feet from his left one. The rest of him was made up of the Giraffe - its head being right above the eyes.

"Ah!" Merrick gasped.

On the Animarium, the water in the fountain rose up, getting the Princess and the Rangers to turn to it. They all ran towards it as the water died down, then saw Penta Org approaching Merrick.

"Merrick's in trouble!" Cole gasped.

Jindrax and Toxica turned and ran off, as Penta Org grabbed Merrick.

"Come on." Cole said.

The Rangers all ran off, as the Princess stared at them, before turning to the fountain.

At the beach, Merrick lay on the sand, as Quadra Org charged at him, as Nayzor and Master Org watched.

"Huh?" Merrick gasped.

He rolled over and kicked his legs up, hitting Quadra Org's hand. He then got up and tried to punch him, but he blocked it, then he kicked Merrick in the belly.

"Ah!" Merrick moaned.

They then both grappled each other, before Penta Org threw Merrick to his left.

"AH!" Merrick moaned.

He hit the sand and rolled along it, stopping on his back. He then stared at Penta Org, then began to back away from him.

Toxica and Jindrax laughed as showed up near Master Org and Nayzor.

"I'd say that he's done, Master." Nayzor remarked.

"You see that he is done!" Master Org ordered, pointing at Merrick.

He vanished as Jindrax and Toxica laughed.

"This should be fun." Jindrax joked.

Nearby, the Rangers all ran past a cliff, then through a valley, before arriving at the beach on a small cliff.

"Down there!" Cole said, pointing at Merrick as they stopped.

"AHH!" Merrick moaned, hitting the ground on his back.

The Rangers all opened up their Growl Phones.

"Wild Access!"

They pressed the button on their Growl Phones, then put it to their ears.

~Morph sequence~

The screen split into six, Alyssa's Growl Phone in the top left, Cole's in the top middle, Max's in the top right, Danny's in the bottom left, Taylor's in the bottom middle, and Bella's in the bottom right. Their Wildzords went over them all, then they all did their moves, transforming into Humanoid mode, as they held their right arms out, and their left near their heads. They then shattered into the Rangers, then their Wildzords roared as their helmets came over them all.

~End morph sequence~

"Blazing Lion!" Cole shouted, extending claws from his hand, before pulling it back.

The screen showed his animal picture, Crystal Saber, then his belt buckle, then he did his fight pose as red smoke came up behind him.

"Soaring Eagle!" Taylor shouted, doing the same.

The screen showed her animal picture, Crystal Saber, then her belt buckle, then she did her fight pose as yellow smoke came up behind her.

"Surging Shark!" Max shouted, doing the same.

The screen showed his animal picture, Crystal Saber, then his belt buckle, then he did his fight pose as blue smoke came up behind him.

"Leaping Leopard!" Bella shouted, doing the same.

The screen showed her animal picture, Crystal Saber, then her belt buckle, then she did her fight pose as pink/gold smoke came up behind her.

"Iron Bison!" Danny shouted, doing the same.

The screen showed his animal picture, Crystal Saber, then his belt buckle, then he did his fight pose as black smoke came up behind him.

"Noble Tiger!" Alyssa shouted, doing the same.

The screen showed her animal picture, Crystal Saber, then her belt buckle, then she did her fight pose as white smoke came up behind her.

"Guardians of the Earth, untied we roar!" Cole said, putting his hand on his animal picture, then moved it out in a circle, before clutching his fist. "Power Rangers..!"

They all spun around and did their fight poses as an explosion went off behind them.

"Wild Force!" the Rangers shouted.

Nayzor, Jindrax and Toxica all stood on top of a cliff, looking down at them all.

"Quadra Org, use the power of their Zords against the Rangers!" Nayzor commanded.

Quadra Org turned to the Rangers, who all brought out their weapons.

"Hyah!" they shouted.

They all charged at Quadra Org.

"Red Lion Fang!" Cole shouted.

He jumped up, followed by Taylor, Max, Bella, Danny, and then Alyssa. They all landed around Quadra Org and slashed him with their weapons together twice, but didn't hurt him. He then shot lighting out from every inch of his body, knocking the Rangers back.

"AGHH!" they moaned.

Sparks then came out of them.

"AHH!" they moaned.

Cole and Taylor both rolled along the ground, then the others gathered around them as they got up. They then all stared at Penta Org, who laughed as he walked forward.

"Let's combine our weapons." Cole said.

They all combined their weapons into the Jungle Sword.

"Jungle Sword!" Cole shouted, holding it up as the others took their positions. "Savage Slash!"

He moved it to his left, then began spinning it around in a circle, then held it above him on his right. He then slashed it downwards, but Penta Org turned slightly to his left, causing it to bounce off him.

"What?!" Bella exclaimed.

"No way?!" Max gasped.

Quadra Org then turned to the Rangers, then fired lasers, hitting them all in the chest.

"AGHH!" they moaned.

The Jungle Sword fell apart into their weapons as it flew into the air, then the Rangers and the weapons all hit the ground.

Nayzor, Jindrax and Toxica stared at them from the cliff.

"How'd you like fighting against the power of your own Wildzords, Rangers?" Nayzor sneered.

"Freeze them with the Polar Bear!" Jindrax commanded.

Quadra Org turned left, then shot icy mist from the Polar Bear shoulder.

"Look out?!" Cole yelled, as the Rangers got up.

The mist hit them all, making them wobble slightly.

"AGH!" Cole yelled.

"AHH!" Danny yelled.

"AGH!" Bella screamed.

"AH!" Taylor yelped.

"AGH!" Max yelled, spinning around.

"AGH!" Alyssa moaned.

"Now, blast them with the Black Bear's fire!" Toxica ordered, laughing.

The Quadra Org turned 180 degrees to his right, then shot fire from his Black Bear shoulder, hitting the Rangers.

"AGHH!" they yelled.

"Oh!" Merrick moaned, clutching his chest.

He rolled onto his side, then he opened his eyes.

Nayzor fanned himself as he sniggered.

"Goodbye, Rangers." he smirked.

"AGHH!" Cole yelled, as the fire spread around the Rangers.

Quadra Org then shot six Elephant trunks at the Rangers, wrapping around all their chests and heads - expect Max, who only had his around his chest.

"UH!" Cole moaned.

"Uh!" Taylor groaned.

"Ah!" Bella moaned.

"Ugh!" Danny moaned.

"Ah!" Alyssa moaned.

"Uh!" Max moaned.

Merrick tried to pull himself up while staring at them.

"This is all my fault!" he grunted, clutching his chest. "I have to stop this!"

He pulled himself to his feet.

"AH!" the Rangers moaned.

Quadra Org fired lighting from his forehead, hitting the Rangers.

"AGHH!" they moaned, falling down.

"I must help them!" Merrick panted, getting up.

The Rangers moaned as they rolled slightly on the ground.

"Quadra Org, stop!" Merrick roared, pointing at him as he turned around.

Quadra Org laughed as he walked forward.

"AGHHHH!" Merrick yelled.

He charged forward with his staff, then picked up Taylor's Eagle Sword.

"Don't do it!" Taylor cried.

"Get outta here?!" Karen cried.

"Merrick, no!" Danny yelled.

"The Quadra Org is way too powerful!" Cole called.

Merrick tried to slash Quadra Org with Taylor's sword, but he blocked it with his right hand. Merrick then spun around to slash him with his staff, but missed as he ducked. Merrick then sent a kick at him, but he blocked it with his left hand, then Merrick blocked a whack from him with both weapons, before he knocked them out of his hands.

"Oh. This battle will be shorter than I thought." Nayzor smirked.

Merrick charged at Quadra Org, then spun around to kick him, but missed as he ducked. They then both sent a kick at each other, hitting each other's foot, then Quadra Org punched him in the chest, sending him flying away.

"AGH!" he yelped.

He hit the ground on his chest.

~Animarium~

Princess Shayla looked down at the fountain, seeing the battle.

"Get out!" she pleaded.

~The beach~

Merrick rolled along the ground, stopping near the Rangers, before he got up and charged at Quadra Org.

"Merrick, you can't defeat him alone!" Cole exclaimed.

Merrick tried to punch Penta Org, but missed as he dodged, then he whacked Merrick in the back, flipping him forward onto his chest.

"Be careful!" Cole cried.

Merrick turned to Quadra Org, then got up as Quadra Org shot an Elephant Trunk at him, which wrapped around his chest.

"Oh!" Merrick yelped.

Quadra Org laughed as they both fought over the trunk in a tug-of-war.

"AH!" Merrick groaned.

Quadra Org then lifted the trunk up, pulling it back, making Merrick spin around.

"AGHH!" he yelped, before hitting the ground.

Quadra Org sniggered as he walked slowly towards Merrick, who sat up and backed away slightly.

"Yeah!" Quadra Org snarled.

"Don't do it!" Max begged.

"Save yourself!" Alyssa cried.

Merrick pulled himself while clutching his chest.

"Why are you doing this, Merrick?!" Cole called.

"I caused this, and I will make it right!" Merrick explained.

"NO!" Cole cried.

"Get outta here!" Taylor yelled.

"Get going!" Max called.

"Run!" Bella cried.

"NOW!" Danny yelled.

"Please?" Alyssa begged.

"I have to do this for you!" Merrick said, clutching his fist. "AGGGHHHHH!"

He charged forward, as Penta Org shot lasers from his eyes. They all hit the ground around Merrick as he kept running, creating explosions behind him.

"AGGHHHH!" he roared.

Quadra Org kept firing at him, before one explosion knocked him into the air.

"AGHHH!" he yelled, twirling around in the air.

He hit a cliff and rolled down it, before reaching the bottom on his back.

"Oh!" he moaned.

~Animarium~

"AH!" Princess Shayla gasped. "Merrick?!"

~The beach~

"Ah!" Merrick moaned, rolling onto his chest.

He lifted his head up as he looked up.

~Animarium~

The Lion Wildzord stood on its rock, before it roared loudly as its eyes glowed.

The screen split into three, showing Merrick's Animal Crystals - the Hammerhead on the left, the Wolf in the middle, the Alligator on the right - which all glowed.

~The beach~

Merrick pulled himself up as three balls of light shot towards him, then he caught them in his hand, showing his Animal Crystals.

"Wolf! Alligator! Hammerhead! You have returned to me." he said happliy.

They all moved and spun around his wrist, putting on a brace with a sliver cell phone with a wolf's face called the Lunar Caller.

"What's this?" Merrick questioned.

Quadra Org growled, getting his attention.

"Huh?" he muttered.

"What are you waiting for? Destroy him!" Nayzor commanded.

Quadra Org growled.

Merrick took his Lunar Caller off his brace and opened it up, before putting it on the left side of his head.

"Wild Access!"

He pressed the button on it, then put it to his right ear.

~Morph sequence~

The Lunar Caller closed up, then the Wolf Wildzord went over it. It then spun around rapidly, before it shattered into Merrick, wearing a Sliver Ranger suit like the rest, expect his slash had six black stripes on, he had a staff in place of a saber, and a wolf face on its left. It also had dark blue on its right arm, around his slash, and a diamond pattern down his legs, as he held his right hand up with his fingers against his palm, and his left out behind him like a claw. The Wolf Wildzord roared as a helmet with red eyes over the visor, which was the same as Cole's and Alyssa's, dark blue bits on top and wolf ears went over him, putting it on.

~End morph sequence~

Merrick held his right hand up as claws extended from it, before he pulled it down, holding it by his helmet.

"Howling Wolf!" he shouted.

The screen showed his belt buckle, then his staff, then his animal picture. He then scratched his claws against the ground, then he held his right hand up to his left, while holding his left beneath it to his right.

"Huh?" Quadra Org gasped.

The Rangers all stared at Merrick.

"All right!" Alyssa whooped.

"Unbelievable." Cole said.

"No way?" Bella muttered.

Nayzor, Jindrax and Toxica stared at Merrick in shock.

"What?!" Nayzor gasped.

"Not another Ranger!" Toxica complained.

~Animarium~

Princess Shayla smiled as she looked up.

"Yes, he is." she grinned.

She put her hands together, smiling widely.

~The beach~

"Hyah!" Merrick yelled.

He began scratching the ground with his hands, while also kicking his feet back. He then began charging at Quadra Org on all fours, then jumped up and dived past Quadra Org twice, clawing him with claws both times.

"Lunar Cue!" Merrick shouted.

He brought out his staff, as it extended itself.

"Saber mode!" he shouted.

He slashed it down Quadra Org's chest, then ran past and slashed him across the chest. He then turned and stabbed him in the chest with it, knocking him down, making him roll along the ground, before he got up.

"Sniper mode!" Merrick shouted, turning his Lunar Cue into a blaster. "It's time to get the crystals back."

Quadra Org fired a laser from his eyes, but missed as Merrick dived to his left, then rolled along the ground. Merrick fired his blaster, hitting him all over. Merrick then fired again, hitting him in the chest.

"AH!" he moaned.

He then fired his eye lasers at Merrick, but missed as he rolled to his right.

"Whoa!" he yelped, stopping.

He then jumped up, then dived up and fried his blaster, hitting Quadra Org as he flew past him, making sparks come up around Quadra Org.

"Unbelievable." Cole gasped.

"Amazing." Alyssa commented.

"Wow. He's so strong." Taylor remarked.

"Increabile." Bella remarked.

"Cool." Max commented.

"And he's really fast." Danny noted.

The ends of Merrick's Lunar Cue extended.

"Break mode!" he shouted, pushing the handle up, so it resembled a pool stick.

Quadra Org slowly walked forward, as Merrick brought out his three crystals, then lowered his hand.

"Laser Pool!" he shouted, crossing his forearms over.

He then waved his Lunar Cue from right to left, creating a laser pool table, which trapped Quadra Org.

"Rack 'em up." he said, putting his crystals on it.

He put his Lunar Cue near them, pulling the back slightly.

"AH!" Penta Org gasped.

"Lunar Break!" Merrick shouted, pushing the handle forward.

He hit the crystals, which all shot across the pool, and then hit Quadra Org. The crystals then shot back towards Merrick, who caught them all, then he turned around. He lifted his cue up, then lowered it while holding his left hand up, as Penta Org fell onto his back and blew up.

The other Rangers all got up and threw the Elephant trunks off them.

"Wow." Cole said amazed. "He was able to defeat the Quadra Org all by himself."

Lighting emerged from the goo where Quadra Org had been.

"Revive him, Toxica!" Nayzor ordered.

"Evil spirts of toil and strife, give this fallen Org new life!" Toxica chanted, waving her staff around, before pushing it forward. "Hyah!"

Five seeds shot out from her staff, which then hit the ground in the remains of Quadra Org. Large vines then rose up from the seeds quickly, reforming him as a giant, then he laughed.

Merrick looked at his crystals as they glowed.

"Now it's your turn." he said.

He turned around, then slashed his Lunar Cue from left to right, creating a laser pool - this time facing upwards. He put the crystals on it, then pulled his Lunar Cue back, before putting it near them.

"Wildzords, descend!" he shouted.

He pushed the handle forward and hit the crystals, shooting them across the pool and towards the sky. They then banged against each other, before they flew apart, then attached to a crescent moon.

His Wildzords then showed up and charged towards the Quadra Org.

He lowered his Cue and held his left hand like a claw near his helmet.

"Wildzords, combine!" he shouted.

The Wolf Wildzord jumped up, as the Hammerhead Wildzord flew over the Alligator Wildzord, which roared. It then lowered its head down to its belly, as its back legs retracted downwards, then the feet lowered themselves slightly. The Wolf and Hammerhead Wildzords both flew around it, as its front legs retracted backwards, then the Wolf Wildzord's tail attached to chest. The Hammerhead Wildzord then attached itself to its right, while the Wolf Wildzord did the same on the left, forming the arms. Its head popped out of it, then it raised and opened its Alligator mouth, forming the Predazord.

The horn on the head then retracted inwards, as the top part of the head rose up, showing a face with yellow eyes.

"It's the Predazord, but the evil's been destroyed!" Cole said, pointing at it.

Merrick showed up in the Predazord's cockpit, then put his Cue down in the podium.

"Ready for battle. Predazord, awaken!" he shouted, holding his right hand up, before putting them both on the podium.

The Predazord stared at Penta Org, as the other Rangers stared at it.

"Come on, guys." Cole said, bringing out his saber. "Let's give Merrick a hand."

The others brought out their sabers.

"Ready?" Cole asked.

"Wildzords, descend!" they all shouted, putting their sabers butts against their hands, before holding them up.

Their crystals inside lit up as the echoing music came out of them.

~Animarium~

The Lion Wildzord roared as it ran through the jungle, then Tiger Wildzord then roared as it ran forward, then the Leopard Wildzord screeched as it ran over the ground. The Shark Wildzord then jumped out out of the lake and dived down, then the Eagle Wildzord then screeched as it flew near the trees. The Rhino and Armadillo Wildzords ran alongside each other.

~The beach~

The Rangers all put their sabers together, then held their left hands near them like claws, the screen splitting into six as it did - Taylor in the top left, Cole in the top middle, Max in the top right, Karen in the bottom left, Danny in the bottom middle, Alyssa in the bottom right.

"Wildzords, combine!" they shouted.

The Leopard, Lion, Shark and Tiger Wildzords got into their positions to make the Wild Force Megazord. The Eagle Wildzord then screeched as it attached itself to the Lion Wildzord's head, then raised its wings up as the Shark and Tiger Wildzords attached themselves on either side of it. The Lion Wildzord then attached to the Leopard Wildzord. The Eagle Wildzord then wrapped its wings around the Lion Wildzord, then its head stuck out of it.

The Rhino Wildzord roared as it ran along, then its back retracted out 90 degrees, then it lifted up slightly, then rotated down so it was beside the head, forming the legs. They both then ran along as the other Wildzords came over it, then attached to it forming the Wild Force Megazord Striker mode.

The Soul Bird flew towards the battle, twirling around counter clockwise as it did.

"Soul Bird!" Cole shouted.

The Rangers all jumped up towards the Soul Bird, as its six perch spaces retracted out from it, then the Rangers landed on them.

"Soul Drive merge!" Cole said.

The Soul Bird flew towards the Wild Force Megazord, which turned around, then the Soul Bird merged inside it.

The Armadillo Wildzord rolled towards it in the air, before it kicked it up with its right leg, then kneed it up with its right knee, then it kicked it up with its left leg. It then headed the Armadillo Wildzord up with its head, which then spun around in the air, and landed in the right foot, completing the Striker Mode.

Both Megazords stared at Quadra Org, who laughed.

"Time for the Wild Force Megazord Striker!" Cole said, turning right as he held his fist up.

"You got it, Cole." Merrick said, holding his thumb up as he turned left.

Both Megazords charged at Quadra Org, whose eyes and Swordfish face lit up, then he moved his hands closer to his belly, creating an energy ball. He then threw it towards the Megazords, which hit the ground in front of them, making sparks come up from it, as they marched forward. He then shot another at them, hitting them slightly as sparks came out of them, but they kept on marching.

"Huh?" he muttered.

Both Megazords then punched him with their right hands, hitting his chest at the same time. They then both punched him with their left hands, hitting hic chest at the same time, knocking him back.

"AH!" he moaned.

The Wild Force Megazord then slashed him with its Fin Blade. The Predazord then slashed him with its Gator Staff, knocking him back.

"OH!" he moaned.

"Merrick, are you ready?" Cole asked.

"You bet." Merrick assured.

Both Megazords linked their arms together, creating an energy ball, then they both turned around, and then threw it towards Quadra Org, hitting him in the chest.

"Wild Force Megazord..!" Cole said, holding his fist up.

"Final Strike!" the Rangers shouted, pulling their fists back, before pushing them out.

The Wild Force Megazord ran and kicked the Armadillo Wildzords as it glowed, then it shot the Armadillo Wildzord forward. It then hit Penta Org in the chest, making sparks come out of him.

The Armadillo Wildzord shot back towards the Wild Force Megazord, and landed in the right foot.

Merrick crossed his forearms over, holding them like claws.

"It's time to bring it up a notch!" he said, before he held his hands like his fight pose. "Activate Revolver panel!"

The Predazord raised up its Gator Staff, creating a crescent moon, then it dug the staff into it. The staff then spun around as it raced forward, then it hit Quadra Org, freezing him.

"OHH!" he moaned.

Lighting came out all around him, before he fell onto his chest and blew up.

Both Megazords stood at ease, as Nayzor, Jindrax and Toxica stared at them.

"Quadra Org has failed us!" Nayzor gasped. "We must retreat at once!"

They all turned around and began to retreat.

"Not so fast, Nayzor!" Merrick roared.

He jumped out of the Predazord and landed in front of Nayzor, Jindrax and Toxica, making them stop.

"Oh!" Jindrax yelped.

"Lunar Wolf Ranger!" Nayzor gasped.

"Give me the crystals?!" Merrick demanded, bringing out his Lunar Cue.

"Try and take them!" Nayzor dared.

They both charged at each other.

"Full Moon slash!" Merrick yelled.

He jumped up, then somersaulted forward, then slashed his cue down diagonally from right to left, hitting Nayzor.

"AGHH!" he moaned.

"Give them to me now!" Merrick demanded.

He tried to hit Nayzor, who then grabbed the end of his cue before it hit his side.

"Never!" he retorted.

He then grabbed Merrick's shoulder, who then ran forward while pushing him along, before he banged Nayzor against a rock.

"OHH!" Nayzor moaned.

Merrick backed away while pulling his cue free, as Jindrax and Toxica watched in horror.

"Nayzor?!" Jindrax exclaimed.

"Oh, no!" Toxica gasped.

Nayzor fell onto his chest and blew up.

"Gen. Nayzor, destroyed?" Toxica questioned.

"Inconceivable!" Jindrax exclaimed.

Nayzor's crown flew towards them both, then it landed near them.

"Oh!" Toxica gasped, picking it up.

"You two, leave!" Merrick yelled, turning to them.

"Uh-oh." Jindrax yelped. "I think it's time for our hair appointment. Come on."

"AH!" Toxica growled.

She threw the crown down, then they both turned and ran off.

"I'll come back for that later." she said.

Merrick approached Nayzor's remains, and saw the five Animal Crystals were intact.

"The crystals are safe." he sighed.

Later, Merrick stood on the beach, when the others all came running towards him.

"Merrick, wait up?!" Cole called.

"Hey, Merrick?" Alyssa called.

Merrick stared at them as they stopped near him.

"Man, that was awesome." Max remarked.

"I couldn't believe it when you morphed." Danny admitted.

"Me neither." Karen admitted. "You were amazing back there."

"The Lunar Wolf Ranger." Cole announced.

"Now there are seven of us, just like there was 3000 years ago." Taylor said.

Merrick stared at them, before he held his hand up, showing the Animal Crystals.

"Our Animal Crystals?" Taylor said.

She took the Bear Crystals from him.

"My Giraffe Zord?" Max said.

Merrick moved his hand to Max, who then took his Giraffe Crystal.

"Thanks." he said.

He smiled while staring at it, as Danny patted his shoulder.

Merrick moved his hand to Alyssa, who then took her Elephant Crystal from him.

"I've returned what I took from you." Merrick said.

He turned around and walked off, before the others ran after him.

"Wait?" Cole asked.

He grabbed Merrick's arm, getting him to stop.

"Why are you leaving?" Cole asked. "You're one of us now."

Max and Bella nodded as Merrick stared at them all.

"I'll never be one of you." he said.

He turned and walked off.

"But where will you go?" Alyssa asked.

"Wherever the wind takes me!" Merrick called.

"But don't you wanna help Princess Shayla?" Max asked.

Merrick stopped as they all stared at him, thinking hard, before he walked off.

"Guess he needs some more time." Bella deduced.

"Perhaps." Cole agreed.

As Merrick kept on walking, Princess Shayla looked down at him from the nearby cliff.
