Disclaimer: Saban owns the Power Rangers, and Paramount owns Q and the concept of Q. This particular Q is my idea. My apologies in advance for anyone acting out of character, particularly Commander Stanton, who has not been very developed and I am changing to fit more of Captain Picard.
Devastator saw the change, saw the Rangers loosen up and somehow look all that more dangerous because of it. He chose to go on the offensive before the Rangers could come into tune with the spirits that they were in contact with. He charged.
And he found himself alone as all of the Rangers jumped out of the way, landing stinging little blows to him that enraged him. They felt like mosquito bites, but those Rangers had dared to hit him. Leo sent a message over the internal helmet comlinks to the rest of the Rangers /*Guys, flank him and stay out of the way of those guns and blades on him. Try to hit him as much as you can, using your fast attacks. If we can do this we'll make him angry, and then he'll make a mistake, and when he does that...*/ The other four rangers chimed in at the same time \*We nail him!*/ Leo grinned under his helmet and said, "Lets get him!"
Kendrix and Maya did a jump where they bounced off Devastator's shoulders and landed behind him, and then as he turned around he was hit by a double kick that sent him sprawling right into Damon's path, and Damon nailed Devastator with a slice from his sword, and then as Devastator tried to blast him with a fusion cannon, Damon easily flipped out of the way.
Then Kai blasted Devastator with his disruptor pistol, and Devastator returned the fire with dozens of energy blasts, but Kai was nowhere to be seen. Then Leo had an idea. Leo threw his Beyond Blade right into Devastator's main cannon, and then began yelling insults at Devastator.
Devastator yelled in outrage and attempted to fire all of his weapons at the Ranger who dared to insult him. There was a massive explosion, and Devastator blew up. The monster who could stand the Rangers combined firepower with nary a scrach fell to his own.
The Rangers stood around and cheered, then teleported off.
The Admiral yelled, "STANTON REPORT!!! ATTENTION!!!" Stanton immediately came to attention and dropped the laser pistol, extremely confused. Wasn't the Admiral on Earth, he wondered, what was he doing here? Then, standing outside his quarters wearing his sleepwear, the Admiral began to laugh hysterically. His outfit changed until it was the standard dress of Terra Venture, and the Admiral changed to a teenage boy wearing glasses. Commander Stanton was now more confused than ever, and now he was outraged as well. He slowly picked up his laser pistol and pointed it at the teenager. The teenager stopped laughing and pointed his finger at Stanton. The laser pistol changed into a boquet of flowers.
Stanton was now afraid. "Tsk, tsk, trying to threaten a superior being, and one who only came to help you too. What would your superiors say when they heard how you bungled a first contact mission and got an entire species to declare war on your pitiful ship."
There was an embarrassed silence and then Commander Stanton began apologizing profusely for his mistake. The teenager said with a superior air, "Enough kissing up already, lets get down to business. Terra Venture is going to be attacked soon and the Rangers will be hard pressed to stop it. You must train your security personnel harder, so they will be able to repel the threat should the Rangers fail. Good day." Then he disappeared with a flash of light, and Commander Stanton felt a strange goo on his face.
He went into his quarters and looked at his face. His face had makeup on it to look like a clown! He tried to wash it off but it wouldn't come off. He then heard a voice in his head say, "Don't worry, it will only stay on for a few days, or until it bores me and I take it off." Disregarding Commander Stanton's protestations over what the look would do to his ability to command effectively, he heard a, "Ta Ta." And then the voice was gone.
The next day Kai and Kendrix reported to the bridge for their
shift of
the day, and they noticed that Commander Stanton was dressed up like a
clown. When they began to pose a question as to what had happened, he
drew
his hand across his throat in a silence motion, and said angrily, "No
questions, got it? Good. Report to your duty stations, and if I catch
one
of you staring at me I will give you kitchen duty for a month!"
