Chapter 32: Endings Part 2

"Come on," Jack grunted as he willed his powers to work, to free himself from his cuffs. However, his ability wouldn't kick in, leaving him more and more frustrated.

"Jack, give me a second," Annie caught him by the cuffs and pulled him to face her.

"What are you – hey, wait, how are you free?" he demanded, realising she was no longer wearing her cuffs.

"Please," Annie scoffed, and Jack glanced over to where Spencer was freeing Sky from his own restraints.

"Lock picking skills?" Z asked with a raised eyebrow. "How very criminal of you," she commented. Rolling his eyes, Spencer turned to her as Sky rubbed his chafed wrists.

"I could leave you in those if you prefer," he threatened, and she held out her hands with an innocent look. "Ninja skills come in handy now and again. Purely for legal reasons," Spencer added, making her smile despite their predicament.

"Jack, your genetic powers have been neutralised, you can't break out," Kruger told Jack. Free from his cuffs, Jack was working on trying to get out of their prison.

"Can't blame a guy for trying," Jack shook his head. He winced when the forcefield shocked him.

"Hey, can you two get us outta here?" Sky asked Annie and Spencer. Annie shook her head.

"Maybe if there wasn't a forcefield in the way," she shrugged. Spencer approached it and pressed his fingers to the forcefield, wincing but not pulling back as it shocked him.

"Yeah, no Ninja skills could get through this," Spencer agreed, focus in his green eyes. "But..." a gold glow surrounded his hands and he breathed in slowly, closing his eyes. "Maybe some magic might crack this-" there was a pulse, and Spencer cried out as he was thrown backwards, narrowly missing Bridge as the Green Ranger remained upside down. "Or crack me instead," Spencer groaned, on his back with his legs over his head.

"Good distance," Bridge commented as Spencer rolled over.

"Anything broken?" Kruger, who had been talking quietly with Jack, asked him.

"Just my pride," Spencer shook his head, getting to his feet and groaning.

"Who'd have thought Piggy would have sent us into this trap?" Z complained, on the ground with her legs pulled in close.

"Just goes to show ya," Bridge stood up properly. "Can't trust reptiles," he smiled, but it faded. "He is a reptile, right?" he asked.

"He's history if I ever get outta here," Sky growled.

"Oh, you and me both," Annie nodded.

"He's probably laughing at us right now," Sky shook his head, furious that he had fallen for the trap.

"Commander Kruger, and the B-Squad, have been captured by Emperor Grumm," Kat announced to the cadets in front of her, Boom and Kayden. "There is no-one left to protect Earth, but us. Omega Ranger will lead those who are willing to fight against the inevitable Troobian invasion. The odds of coming out of this are slim," Kat admitted. "If any of you want to leave, please do so now," she told them. Sam glanced around, eyes widening as all but Sera turned to leave. Kayden sighed heavily.

"I figured nobody would want to stay after this," he murmured. Kat sighed too, knowing he was right.

"Wait!" they glanced to Boom as he called to the retreating group. "Before you go, I just wanna tell you that...I get it!" Boom shrugged helplessly. "You know? I understand. Outnumbered, outpowered, Kat's probably exaggerating when she said the odds were slim. Hopeless would be more like it," Boom gave a small smile. "But even if all of you leave, I'm staying. I'm staying for Commander Kruger. I'm staying for Jack. For Sky, Bridge, Z, Syd, Spencer, Annie. I'm staying because they would stay for me. They'd stay for you too," Boom smiled as Sam, Sera, Kat and Kayden moved to stand beside him. "We will probably lose this fight. But I am not giving up, without a fight. So Grumm, bring it on. So those of you who wanna go, go. I'm staying," the group cheered as Kat smiled proudly at Boom.

Kruger's ears lifted and he let out a snarl, and the Rangers turned quickly as a group of Krybots, led by an Orange-Head, approached.

"Kruger, Rangers! Omni has decided that your existence is no longer needed!" the doors slid open and the Orange-Head stepped inside. "We are here to carry out his orders, but first," he snapped his fingers, and two of the Krybots rushed forwards. Spencer's eyes widened and they grabbed him.

"Hey, wait!" the other Rangers started forwards, but the rest of the Krybots blocked their path.

"What are you doing with him?" Kruger demanded as Spencer struggled desperately.

"Omni wants you Rangers eliminated, but believes the power within that one may be a bit more useful if...converted," the Orange-Head chuckled.

"No!" Annie started forwards, and one of the Krybots clipped her across the face. She stumbled backwards, vision spinning.

"Annie!" Bridge barely caught her as blood ran down from the cut across her temple.

"Ready?" the Orange-Head called to the Krybots, and the Rangers fell into fighting stances.

"Rangers!" Kruger suddenly called. "It has been my honour fighting with you all," he told them, before the Orange-Head gave the order. However, one of the Krybots suddenly turned and blasted the rest, destroying them.

"Okay...what just happened?" Z asked curiously.

"From the looks of things...the last Krybot standing is a really bad shot," Bridge commented as Annie blinked rapidly, unsure if she was really seeing what was in front of them.

"Let's take him sir," Sky called.

"No, wait!" a familiar voice pleaded, and their eyes widened. The Krybot pulled off its mask to reveal Piggy, who raised his hands in defence.

"Piggy?" the Rangers stared at him.

"I know...I know, you hate me, and you have every right to," Piggy accepted as their shock turned to anger at seeing the traitor. "No need to judge me, I'm guilty. You can send me straight to one of those little..." he waved the blaster in his hand. "Confinement cards. Oh!" he realised when Bridge quickly grabbed it, looking alarmed. "Well, the point is, I'm...sorry," he muttered, looking up with a guilty expression.

"Piggy!" Sky started towards him, and the alien let out a yelp as he jerked backwards. "Thanks," Sky smiled.

"Rangers, we've got a planet to save," Kruger ordered.

"What about Spencer? We need to save him?" Annie asked as she stood by herself, wiping the blood away. Her vision swam again, and Bridge kept a supportive hand on her.

"We'll find him, now let's go!" Kruger barked. The Rangers nodded, and they all rushed off, only to find themselves surrounded by a large group of robots.

"Road block," Jack growled. They began to fight, easily fighting off the robots that came at them. Annie leapt off a pillar and landed on the shoulders of an Orange-Head, forcing it down as it went after Piggy. He yelped as she shot him a look, before her hands lifted up. They sparked dark red, before she threw her hands to her sides. Thunder boomed and dark red lightning bounced around the robots, destroying them.

"Rangers, you must return to earth," Kruger ordered as they regrouped.

"Right, but how?" Sky frowned.

"Would these help?" their eyes widened as Piggy approached with their Morphers.

Kayden shook his head as he fixed the wiring in the damaged console. People ran about outside, preparing for the invasion that would soon be arriving.

"Come on, I know you can still work you little-ah!" Kayden yelped when he was shocked. "Really starting to wish I'd taken after my dad," he muttered, shaking his hand as it became numb.

'Kat?' his eyes widened, and Kayden went to stand, slamming his head off the bottom of the console and wailing in pain. 'Uh...is someone there?' Kayden quickly stood, a hand to his head as he faced the computer.

"Guys!" he couldn't help but laugh in relief. "Boom, Kat!" Kayden shouted, and the two rushed in.

"Rangers, I'm sending the Flyers," Kat told them, and they smiled.

"Excellent," Kruger nodded when the communication ended. "Good luck Rangers," he told them, making them frown in confusion.

"But Sir, aren't you coming with us?" Syd asked him, confused.

"No. I have things to finish here. I'll find Spencer and have him back to you in no time," he told them confidently.

"I'll stay and fight with you," Jack told him.

"Much appreciated Jack, but your team needs you, now go," Kruger ordered, patting Jack on the shoulder.

"But-"

"You are in no shape to stay here Annie," the Commander told her sharply. "That is an order!" he barked.

"Yes sir!" the Rangers yelled, and ran off, followed by Piggy.

'All Cadets to your battle stations!' Kat ordered as she picked up the approaching enemies. Out the front of the base, barricades and cover had been set up, with cadets preparing their blasters.

"Okay guys, looks like it's show time!" Sam called as he stepped in front of Kat and Boom.

"So it would seem," Kayden cracked his knuckles, taking a breath. Sera did the same, wearing her Ninja gear that was outlined in amber.

"Did you call them?" she glanced to Kayden, who nodded.

"All we can do now is hope. We just need to last until the Rangers get back," he told her, clapping a hand to her shoulder. Sera swallowed, trying to hide the fear in her eyes. Kayden turned away, hoping his own wasn't obvious either.

The first explosion caught them off guard, throwing everyone off their feet. A group of Krybots and Blue-Heads, led by an Orange-Head, rushed towards SPD. At first they were cut down by the blasters, but finally got in close and the real fight began. Kayden and Sera fought off as many robots as they could, but the waves seemed endless, with several replacing the one that was cut down.

"This isn't looking great Kayden," Sera breathed heavily as she veered more Orange-Heads away from the cadets nearby.

"I hear that. But we aren't stopping," Kayden said.

"No way!" she shook her head, and they continued fighting. Behind Kayden, RIC was blasted and tossed to the ground, before they felt a burst of energy.

"What the hell is that?" Sera demanded, pointing to the grey hole that appeared beside the fallen Omega Ranger.

"A time portal?" Kayden wondered at the same time as Kat. Another figure appeared through it, in a similar suit to Sam's, only in grey.

"Force from the Future! SPD Nova Ranger!" she called, her helmet flashing. "Electro Mode!" she turned the lever on her Morpher and blasted the Troobians coming towards her.

"I am so glad to see you Nova," Sam laughed as he got back to his feet.

"Yeah, well I've been looking all over the timeline for you," she rolled her eyes. "Honestly Omega, you've been a massive pain in the butt to try and find. Worse than that time that-"

"Hey, I don't think we have time for you to get carried away right now," Sam laughed as he got to his feet and patted her shoulder. Hearing another rumble, everyone was taken by surprise when another figure appeared above, towering over the city.

"I have claimed this planet as mine!" he roared, raising a massive staff. He slammed it to the ground, and a loud pulsing noise brought everyone to their knees. "Destruction to all that try and stop me!" he roared. The noise stopped as suddenly as it started, bringing everyone relief.

A figure landed on the ground nearby, down on one knee with their head lowered. For a moment, nobody moved, until the young man stood.

"It's Spencer!" Sera smiled widely in relief. "He's okay!" she went to run to him, but Kayden grabbed her wrist.

"That's not Spencer," he said warily, making her frown.

"What? But-"

"Astute observation Kayden," Spencer smirked, his glasses still cracked and his hair messier than usual. His eyes now shone an eerie gold. "The great Magnificent, Omni, has sent me to finish off this pathetic attempt you call a defence," the group staring at him took a step back in horror.

"Spencer?" Sam stared at him. "No!" he rushed at the young man as he turned his gaze on Kat and Boom. Spencer caught his punch, smirking.

"The little sparkle, how sad it must be for you. You came from a future where SPD had fallen and saved them from destruction that day, only to fail now," Sam grunted as Spencer's grip on his hand tightened.

"Let him go!" Spencer's eyes darted to Nova as she fired a blast at him, only for it to be reflected off his shield. It barely missed her, and he chuckled.

"One more Ranger won't help anything," he shook his head, and kicked Sam hard in the gut. When the Omega Ranger doubled over, Spencer turned and slammed his leg into him, and Sam cried out as he was tossed aside.

"Okay, evil Spencer is a lot scarier than that time mum got mad at him," Nova commented, resting her hands on her hips. Spencer turned to her again, and she swallowed, trying hard to stand her ground against him.

"Earth is mine!" Omni declared overhead as the robots continued to attack. When the Megazord suddenly burst through the clouds and fired a blast, he glanced at them.

"This looks like our last battle. Now let's give it everything we've got!" Jack yelled to his team.

'Rangers!' they heard Kat crackle through on the communication channel. 'We have another problem,' she warned.

"Another? What could be as bad as-"

'Spencer's been brainwashed by Omni. He's fighting Omega and Nova but he's too strong for them,' Kat warned.

"Oh man," Jack groaned. Another battle on two fronts, and they were down another two Rangers.

'Guys, focus on Omni,' Kayden called quickly. 'I'll help hold off Spencer until reinforcements arrive,' he told them.

"Reinforcements?" Bridge wondered.

"You heard the man, we need to focus on this problem first!" Jack shouted to them.

"Right!" they nodded.

"This is it Kia..." Sam groaned as he got to his feet. "Just you and me," he muttered.

"Right," she nodded.

"And me!" Kayden stood beside them, watching Spencer. The Gold Ranger just looked amused, before glancing around quickly. He leapt back, narrowly avoiding the blast that came at him. "They're here!" Kayden smiled in relief.

"The SPD headquarters sent help!" Sam realised as he saw the Commanders rushing towards the fight.

"And I happened to be nearby," they looked around to see Minos approach with a raised eyebrow.

"Oh, the teacher," Spencer sneered, turning his attention to him. "Shall we have another lesson?" he taunted as more Troobians rushed around, forcing Sam, Nova and Kayden back.

"I didn't like that mouth before, and I don't like it now," Minos snorted, his armour surrounding him. "Let's fix it, shall we?" he rushed at Spencer, who smirked. However, it faded slightly when Minos suddenly veered away from him, as the light shimmered between the two. "You forget, not only was I your teacher, I fought your mother on many occasions. You're too similar," Minos swung his hammer hard, and Spencer dove to avoid it.

"You won't win!" Spencer shouted at him, rushing at Minos, who caught his punch.

"Yes, we will!" Minos nodded, dropping his hammer to catch the next punch. The two grappled as the Megazord flew overhead, dodging the tentacles that Omni lashed out with. He grunted, feeling the power behind Spencer as the Gold Ranger let out a yell, but he was still stronger and more experienced. He twisted, and tossed Spencer through the air. The Gold Ranger crashed into barrels, and groaned.

"Wh...what?" his eyes flashed from gold to green, before he shook his head. When he opened his eyes, they were gold again, and he scowled up at Minos. He began to glow golden, and stood up as his injuries faded. He threw out his hands, and magic shot at Minos, who dove to dodge it.

"I almost broke through there," he murmured, grabbing his hammer. "Wait, that's it!" he slammed his hammer down, and Spencer stumbled and fell, stunned, giving time for Minos to run to Sam. "Hey, kid," the Omega Ranger looked up at him.

"Who are you?" he asked, curious of the armour the man wore.

"That's not important right now. What is important is..." Minos turned and slammed his hammer into an Orange-Head. It fell to the ground twitching. "You can reach Annie, right?" he asked.

"Of course," Sam nodded.

"Good. Get her down here to fight Spencer. She's the only one around who can snap him out of this hold this guy has on him," Minos told him.

"What?" Sam frowned, before Minos ran off as Spencer recovered. "Hey, Annie?" he called.

'Little busy Sparkle-Pants!' she called back.

"I know, but you need to fight Spencer. Some guy in brown armour is fighting him and says you're the only one who can snap him out of it," Sam told her as he grabbed a Blue-Head and tossed it away from Boom.

"Go Annie! We can handle this for a little while!" Jack told her.

"You sure?" Annie called back.

"Bring that hard head back with you!" Sky nodded. With a laugh, Annie unbuckled from the Megazord and leapt down as it flew low to the ground. She landed, and immediately shot in, kicking Spencer hard enough to throw him away from Minos.

"What?" Spencer coughed, glowing again and getting to his feet. His expression twisted. "You. Just howdid you escape?" he demanded. Annie just smirked under her helmet and rushed at him, throwing a punch. "You won't win! The Rangers are down two now, you'll never beat Omni!" he yelled as he dodged it, and dropped to the ground. Annie leapt over his sweeping kick, landing behind him.

"And haven't you learned by now?" Spencer turned to her, only for her hand to catch his head. She demorphed, her eyes glittering. His eyes widened, and with several swift moves, she slammed him to the ground. "You'll never beat me," she smirked as she stood over him. Spencer groaned, legs over his head.

"Annie..." he opened his eyes to glare at her, and his eyes were very much green. "You know I hate that move," he complained, and she laughed, offering her hand. "Thanks," he grinned as he got to his feet.

"You know I'm the only one who can knock some sense into you," Annie smirked, and glanced around. "Hopefully with you back on the right side, they'll be alright while we take out Omni," she commented, looking to where Sam and Nova were fighting with Minos to protect the cadets, alongside the Commanders from other SPD bases.

"They can handle it. Now come on, I don't appreciate someone messing with my head," Spencer looked up at Omni. Annie laughed, nodding. "Ready?" he grinned as he grabbed his Morpher.

"SPD, EMERGENCY!" they Morphed and went into their SWAT mode, running to rejoin the others in the Megazord.

"Welcome back," Jack nodded as they strapped in.

"Thanks," Spencer rubbed the back of his neck. "Sorry I'm late," he said.

"Better late than never," Syd smiled.

"Now let's take this guy out!" Sky shouted. They flew into the air, only for tentacles to wrap around them. It squeezed tightly, making their Megazord creak, before they were able to blast free.

"Hang in there guys!" Jack shouted as they hurtled towards Earth.

'Rangers, if Doggie can-'

'It's when, Kat, it's when I can!' the Commander snapped.

'When Doggie opens up the panel, max out your laser power and pump it only under Omni's left arm. It'll penetrate his central core, and cause a massive implosion,' Kat directed.

"We're all over it!" Jack said confidently. They flew through the air, only to be blasted along the ground by Omni. He laughed as it echoed through the city, and they struggled to get up.

"If we take another hit like that, we won't be around to blast that core," Spencer warned as the systems blared.

'Ready Rangers!' Kruger roared.

"This one is for you Commander!" Jack yelled.

"Ready!" they aimed their blaster and charged it, firing it directly at the arm. The Rangers focused hard as those watching stared, hoping that it was enough. Omni then screamed as it exploded, and he collapsed, exploding. The Rangers cheered, unable to believe they'd done it.

Unmorphed and standing by the wreckage, the Rangers stared silently. While they'd had a massive victory, it had come at a loss.

"Doggie's gone..." Syd whispered.

"I'm gonna miss that great blue dog," Sky muttered as Syd took his hand.

"No. I'm not accepting it," Spencer shook his head stubbornly and stormed into the wreckage.

"Spencer, there's no way anyone could have survived that," Annie spoke as she watched him.

"I don't care!" the Gold Ranger shouted. "I'm not giving up until I see him!" he shook his head.

"Spencer, this wasn't-"

"Don't tell me it wasn't my fault!" Spencer shook his head and turned to Annie as she spoke. "If that asshole hadn't controlled me, we might have beaten Omni faster. Without losing the Commander," tears were stinging at his eyes as he spoke.

"We don't know that!" Z shook her head, her own voice shaking.

"Look," Jack called suddenly, pointing through the smoke. Their eyes widened in shock as they saw Kruger walking with a female Sirian that could only be his wife. "They made it..." he breathed, unable to believe it. "They're alive!" Jack grinned widely. Unable to contain their joy, the Rangers cheered loudly, hugging one another as Spencer sighed, letting his head drop forwards.

"Help each other up!" Kat called as she guided the cadets who had finished off the last of the Troobians. "Report anyone who is missing," she instructed as Minos helped a fallen girl to her feet, and she and another cadet limped back inside.

"Congratulations!" they looked around to see Kruger, Isinia, and the Rangers approach. "SPD!" he raised his Shadow Sabre.

"SPD!"

"SPD!" everyone echoed. Piggy awkwardly attempted a salute.

"Today, Earth can celebrate," Kruger told them proudly.

"And none of us would be here today, if it wasn't for Piggy," they applauded as he smiled bashfully. Spencer frowned, glancing around as a shiver ran down his spine, and he walked towards a pile of wreckage.

"Spencer?" Minos noticed the Gold Ranger tilt his head. The wreckage suddenly trembled, and a figure burst out, landing in front of him. Spencer's eyes widened, and Grumm snarled.

"You!" he lashed out, only for another figure to tackle him out of the way. Kayden cried out as he was struck hard, crashing to the ground.

"Kayden!" Z sprinted over with the others close behind as blood poured from the wound across his chest.

"Kruger!" Grumm snarled as Spencer began to heal the fallen Ninja, as the others carefully pulled him away from Grumm. "Forgive me for being late to your celebration Kruger," he growled.

"We're with you Commander," Jack called as he stood with the others in front of Kayden.

"No!" Kruger shook his head. "I will finish this," he vowed. The two rushed at one another, fighting fiercely as the others watched, holding their breaths. Z, torn between Kayden and Kruger, looked between the two.

"He'll be fine Z," Spencer told her with gritted teeth as he healed the wound slowly. Z nodded, taking Kayden's hand as Kruger spun. With a yell, he brought his sabre down and cut through Grumm's staff, making the skeletal creature roar angrily. He struck Grumm again, and he fell to his knees as Kruger raised his sabre.

"Show me no mercy Kruger," Grumm snarled. "No mercy!" Kruger brought down his sabre, and everyone stared as Grumm's other horn flew through the air. "No!" Grumm roared furiously.

"Now they match," Kruger told him firmly, and blasted him with his Morpher. Grumm was trapped within a card, and Kruger lifted it. "Justice is served!" everyone cheered loudly, and Kayden sat up suddenly.

"Did I miss it?" he demanded.

"You're welcome," Spencer groaned, falling back. He was caught by the Minos as the other Rangers laughed at Kayden as he blinked rapidly. "Sorry, think I might have uh...left a mark," Spencer managed to say weakly. Still dazed, Kayden lifted his shirt to find a scar across his chest.

"Huh. Well, the ladies should find it attractive, right?" Kayden glanced to Z, who just pulled him into a kiss in response.

"I guess that answers that," Annie commented, turning away as she looked grossed out.

"Guys, don't leave me down here with this," Spencer whined as they moved away.

"Rangers, I've called you together to hear this," all the Rangers, including Omega and Nova, stood in the Command Centre. "Jack Landors has left SPD," he announced. Their eyes widened.

"He resigned?" Bridge demanded.

"But why?" Syd asked, and frowned. "He didn't even say goodbye," she realised softly, tears in her eyes.

"Doesn't surprise me," Z shrugged. "Once something's over, he's gone," she smiled sadly when they looked to her.

"Rangers, for your true courage, heroism and valour in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds, I am elevating you to A-Squad," the Commander announced. However, his words didn't have the reaction he expected. "Did you hear me? I'm promoting you to A-Squad," he repeated.

"No, we heard you," Bridge was first to find his voice. "But...we talked it over, and you know what? We are B-Squad," he said as the others smiled and nodded in agreement. "That's who we are. That's who we want to be," Bridge told the Commander.

"Very well. B-Squad it is. There will be no A-Squad," Kruger decided. "But there's still one problem. You have no Red Ranger. You have no leader," their smiles fell as they realised he was right. "Sky Tate, step forward," he ordered. Sky did so quickly. "If I was to appoint Annie as Red Ranger, would you follow her into battle?" Annie's eyes widened in horror.

"Sir, I'd gladly follow anyone into battle that you found worthy of wearing the colour Red," Sky replied.

"Congratulations Sky," Kruger smiled at him and held out a Morpher. "You are the new Red Ranger," Sky stared at the Morpher, and slowly took it. The others applauded, proud of how much he'd grown.

"Oh thank god," Annie muttered as Kruger whispered to Sky, making the new Red Ranger smile.

"You didn't really think he'd make you Red, did you?" Spencer arched an eyebrow.

"No," Annie went red. "But I got scared for a second," the others couldn't help but laugh as Sky stepped back beside them. Suddenly, a blue and black hole appeared in the room, taking them all by surprise.

"Uh, we're not getting a third new Ranger, are we?" Kayden arched an eyebrow.

"Nope!" Sam laughed. "That's our ride home," he said as he and Nova approached it. "Goodbye everyone, and thank you for making our future safe," he smiled.

"Laters!" the Nova Ranger waved brightly.

"Wait!" as they went to leave, Z rushed forwards. She sighed, smiling softly at him. "Goodbye Sam," she hugged him tightly. "I'll see you in twenty years," Sam grinned as he hugged her back.

"Okay. I'll be there Z," he promised.

"You better be, Sparkle-Pants," Annie grinned.

"Sparkle-Pants?" Nova repeated, tilting her head curiously.

"Yeah, you can't get rid of us that easily," Sky nodded with a smile of his own.

"Right," Sam laughed. He stepped back to stand beside Nova. "Let's go," he said to her.

"Sure thing, Sparkle-Pants," she giggled. Sam rolled his eyes and sighed, before they turned to the group watching them.

"Goodbye my friends," they waved, and for a split second they saw Sam and Nova demorphed, before the two disappeared.

"Huh. The Nova Ranger looked way younger than I thought she would," Annie commented on the young blonde girl that had fought with Sam.

"She was kinda familiar," Sky murmured. Syd nodded in agreement.

"Wonder what her name really was," Spencer folded his arms.

"Oh it was Kiana C-" Kat immediately covered Boom's mouth, and the man flailed in alarm.

"We don't know, do we Boom?" Kat glared at him.

"Um...no," he said quickly. The Rangers exchanged curious looks.

Unloading the van of the clothes and handing them to the other workers, Jack was focused on what he was doing, until he heard a voice call.

"Hey!" he smiled as Z walked over and hugged him tightly.

"You guys need some clothes?" Sky called as the other Rangers approached too.

"Guys, thanks," Jack grinned as he took blue clothes from Sky and green from Bridge, along with an assortment of colours from Kayden and Spencer. Syd raised an eyebrow at Spencer.

"What?" his face flickered red.

"Spencer tried to deny that part of our brains that make us always wear our Ranger colours," Annie explained. Syd and Z started to giggle as the others looked at Spencer.

"Oh shut up," he rolled his eyes.

"Yeah, you might have left SPD, but you're not leaving our lives," Sky told Jack.

"We're still a little upset you ditched before helping us with clean-up duty," Kayden nodded, wearing a grey and green uniform as Z took his hand. Jack just smiled innocently at the newest Ranger.

"Well brother, guess we both get to do something bigger," Z commented. Jack grinned at her, thinking back to her words before they first became Rangers.

"Ahem, hello there," they looked to Piggy as he approached, wearing a suit with a rotting banana peel sticking out of the pocket.

"Piggy? What are you doing here?" Sky asked as they couldn't help but laugh.

"Oh, didn't Jack tell you? I've gone into business with him and Ally," Piggy smiled, putting an arm around Ally. Immediately Jack slapped his hand away.

"Seriously Ally, don't be afraid to punch him," Annie grinned to the other blonde. Piggy gasped in horror as Ally laughed.

"After all this time, you still always have to resort to violence first," Sky rolled his eyes.

"Not true!" Annie argued.

"You flipped Spencer this morning for commenting on-never mind," Bridge glanced away quickly when Annie arched an eyebrow at him.

"Another problem with you leaving. I'm the only one on the team not seeing someone in the team," Spencer threw his hands into the air.

"Suck it up Bly," Sky told him as he put an arm around Syd. She smiled as Spencer shot them a glare.

"Yeah Spencer, you've gotten real whiny lately," Annie nodded as Bridge took her hand.

"Maybe he's just jealous he's single," Kayden mused as he pulled Z closer.

"Good grief," Spencer pinched the bridge of his nose, bumping his new glasses. "I hate every single one of you," he declared. Jack couldn't help but laugh, before their Morphers beeped suddenly. Sky grabbed his Morpher, and glanced to Jack, smiling slightly.

"Go for it," Jack nodded with a smile. Sky grinned widely as the others looked from Jack, to their new leader.

"Ready?"

"Ready!"

"SPD, EMERGENCY!"

So at long last, we've finally reached the end of SPD! It's crazy to think it took so long, but I hope you enjoyed it all the same!

Thank you to everyone who took the time to read, review, favourite and follow this story, you encourage me to keep going and to keep improving in my writing. You're all awesome!

I'll be posting a oneshot that will lead into the next story, Dino Charge: Prehistoric Rising, soon enough, but after that there'll be a short break, as I really want to finish at least one of my unfinished fics that are posting. At the moment I'm flying through Shadowed Heart: Threads of Fate, so hopefully that will continue.

But don't fear, I won't hold off for that long! If I feel the break is getting too long, I'll start posting.

Anyway, thank you all again!

Please review!
