An Explosion of Fruit (Transcript)

This is the 27th episode of Dragon Squadron: Draconightger.

(Stock footage from the previous chapter plays out)

The Draconightgers recently encountered the Stingray Dragon, a rampant Draconight Dragon that had no Draconightger pilot of his own. With the help of the Draconightgers, they were able to tame him, and Jase and Kathleen took on using him to form StingrayOh as their own robot separate from DraconightOh. Rusairus's henchmen sent out a monster called Blue Archer to burn up the island, and then to the city. After the Stingray Dragon was tamed, they managed to put out the fires around the island and then returned to the city to stop Blue Archer from burning up the city.

(Cuts to Blue Archer, in giant form, firing arrows around the city to create fires)

Blue Archer: Hahaha! Burn, city! Burn!

DraconightOh: (Shows up in Water Earth Formation with Monty, Amanda, and Harry in the cockpit)

Monty: Amanda, we're going to need the Water Dragon's water to put out all of these fires.

Amanda: You got it, Monty. Water Blast!

DraconightOh: (Uses the Water Dragon to put the fires out in one half of the city)

But Blue Archer was still going.

Blue Archer: You think that will be enough to stop me? (Aims his bow at DraconightOh)

(Cuts to DraconightOh's cockpit)

Harry: Uh oh!

Blue Archer: Say bye-bye, Draconightgers. (Fires the arrow)

LightningOh: (Swings its sword at the arrow to knock it away from DraconightOh, with the arrow landed on the ground and burning out)

(Cuts to LightningOh's cockpit)

Princeton: I've got your back, guys.

(Cuts to DraconightOh's cockpit)

Amanda: Or in this case our front.

(Cuts to LightningOh's cockpit)

Princeton: Now let's see how this archer can handle lightning.

LightningOh: (Raises its sword in the air as it is surrounded by lightning, then it slashes at Blue Archer)

Blue Archer: (Gets hit by the lightning) GAAAAAH! (Sparks up with electricity)

Just then, the Stingray Dragon, Wind Dragon, and Energy Dragon arrived.

(Cuts to Wind Dragon's cockpit)

Jase: Combine, StingrayOh Wind Energy Formation.

The Stingray Dragon then combined with the Wind and Energy Dragons, forming StingrayOh once more with Jase and Kathleen appearing in its cockpit.

(Cuts to StingrahOh's cockpit)

Jase: Stingray Sword!

StingrayOh: (The Stingray Sword appeared in the Wind Dragon arm's hand, then began to fight against Blue Archer)

Blue Archer: (Gets hit) GAAAAH! (Gets hit again) Oof!

(Cuts to StingrayOh's cockpit)

Kathleen: Let's see how this archer likes getting stung in the same way as Stingy did to Wind and Energy before.

StringrayOh: (Raises its sword, lighting up with light blue energy, then slashes at Blue Archer)

Blue Archer: (Gets slashed by the light blue energy) GAAAH! That stung worse than fire! (Falls down and explodes)

(Cuts to DraconightOh's cockpit)

Monty: Great to have you on our side now, Stingray.

(Cuts to StingrayOh's cockpit)

Jase: Now let's put out the rest of the fires.

StingrayOh: (Uses the Wind Dragon arm to create a wind to put out the rest of the fires)

(Cuts to StingrayOh's cockpit)

Kathleen: And that is that.

Over at Rusairus's castle, Turantrax, Tinker Tonker, and Jaroblin had watched Blue Archer's defeat.

Jaroblin: Oh dang! That Stingray Dragon is now on their side? We should have made a better monster.

Turantrax: Should we tell this news to Mother?

(Rusairus walks in without her henchmen noticing)

Tinker Tonker: Uh, I don't think she would like that.

Rusairus: You bet I don't!

All Henchmen: GAAAAH! (Turns around to see her)

Turantrax: Oh...Uh, Mother. We can explain.

Rusairus: Explain that you had a monster be sent out yourselves to try and destroy that new Draconight Dragon? And on top of that, attempt to burn an island and then the city and fail at that, too?

All Henchmen: (Shaking in fear)

Rusairus: (Sighs) Just go think about what you have done and in a few days, we'll send out a better monster.

Jaroblin: Oh. That's a relief.

Rusairus: I am just as mad as you fear I am, however! So don't you forget that!

Over at the base, Platia had just arrived with the Stingray Key.

Platia: Well, we've got the Stingray Key ready, so we'll be able to summon the Stingray Dragon at any time.

Princeton: With four robots fighting against Rusairus's monsters, she won't stand any chance now.

Platia: Also, Princeton, I happened to have found out that one of these sealed doors has a secret tunnel behind it that will lead to Rusairus's castle.

Princeton: How do you know that?

Platia: Well, on my way down the stairs earlier, I came across this drawer that has this (shows a scroll)

Princeton: (Takes the scroll from Platia's hand and looks at it, with the others looking as well) Oh wow. I had no idea this was in that drawer.

Monty: You never checked in that drawer before, Princeton?

Princeton: Yes, I have checked it before, but last time I looked in the drawer, this scroll was not in there. I think I might know how this got there.

Amanda: How, Princeton?

Princeton: Well...

(A flashback begins showing Princeton with two older binturongs)

Princeton VO: Last week, my parents came over for a visit. I told them about the battle we were having to deal with and they were impressed.

Platia VO: Oh yeah. I remember that, too.

Jase VO: Did you meet with them, Platia?

Platia VO: Uh huh. They were very nice. And they told me how hard it must have been to have lost my whole village.

Princeton VO: Dad knows much more about the Dragon Village than I do. I am guessing he left this scroll in the drawer for me and figured I would open the drawer at some point. (Shows Princeton's dad doing just that)

(Cuts to the present)

Kathleen: Did you tell them about who we are?

Princeton: Oh yes. It is an old family secret. My parents won't tell anybody about our identities. Only members of the Binturo family are allowed to know about the Dragon Village and the Draconightgers' identities.

Monty: Did you tell them about us meeting with...?

Princeton: You mean when we traveled to that other world? My parents told me that as long as none of them tells anyone in our dimension about us, then that is fine. Although they did find it hard to believe that the characters we met were actually real beings from other dimensions. But they won't tell anybody about them actually existing either.

Platia: Although knowing that little red dragon we met, it probably wouldn't have been that big of a deal anyway since just about everybody in her city knows about the pony world coming to our world.

Amanda: Getting back to this map, where are we going to get the key to open any of these doors?

Princeton: I wish that Dad would tell me about this map.

Harry: Do you think that he has the key?

Princeton: Something tells me that if he did, he would have left it along with this map.

Jase: Or maybe he is trying to make this quest of defeating Rusairus a lot harder.

Princeton: I doubt it. Otherwise, he wouldn't have left this map.

Kathleen: He does have a good point, bro.

Jase:

Monty walked up to one of the sealed doors and looked over it.

Monty: Hmmm. Uh, I don't see any keyhole in this door.

Amanda: Maybe the keyhole isn't on the door itself. Maybe it is actually to the (looks to see that there isn't) side?

Harry: No. No keyhole on the side of the doors, either.

Kathleen: Maybe it isn't actually a physical key, but perhaps some ancient words?

Jase: That could be it.

Platia: Perhaps this could be a new quest we should go on. Finding the ancient words to open either of these doors.

Princeton: But which one leads to Rusairus's castle and what is behind the other door?

Platia: You mean you don't know?

Princeton: Nu-uh. Not even Dad knows.

Monty: And do you think each door has different ancient words to open them or the same words?

Amanda: I guess when or if we find any ancient words, then we'll find out.

Harry: So, where do we start?

Platia: Maybe the ancient words if that is what we are looking for are somewhere within this house?

Princeton: Like behind some furniture?

Platia: It is possible, Princeton.

Jase: You mean that we need to move some furniture around Princeton's house to find any possible ancient words?

Princeton: Whatever it takes. Just be careful you don't break anything.

Jase: Duly noted.

Monty: Then let's get searching.

And everybody began to look around Princeton's house for any ancient words that could be written on the walls or for any hidden doors. Over at Rusairus's castle, Rusairus went to see Tinker Tonker.

Rusairus: Well, Tinker Tonker, I do hope you have an idea for a new monster, right?

Tinker Tonker: As a matter of fact I have, Mistress.

Rusairus: Good. And what sort of monster do you have planned on making?

Tinker Tonker: Hold on a minute. (Gets up, and then Rusairus sees him put a basket of fruit into the machine)

Rusairus: Fruit?

Tinker Tonker: Not just fruit, I also added some special powder in, too.

Rusairus: Might I ask what kind of powder it is?

Tinker Tonker: When you see what this monster can do, you'll see.

Rusairus: I would say that I trust you, but given our last failure, I am not sure if I can say that.

Tinker Tonker: I am also going to add these cannons, (puts a pair of cannons into the machine) and these sharp leaves (puts a bunch of sharp-looking leaves into the machine and then starts up the machine)

The hatch door at the end of the machine opened up and out came a fruit monster that appeared to be a mix of an orangutan and a pineapple. He had some green trees growing from the top of his shoulders and on the top of his head.

Tinker Tonker: This is Orangupineapple.

Rusairus: Orangupineapple? That is quite a long name.

Tinker Tonker: It was the best name I could come up with, but I don't think it matters what this monster is named or how long his name is.

Rusairus: That is a good point. Now, what kind of powder did you put into the machine?

Tinker Tonker: Orangupineapple, if you would demonstrate your abilities to the mistress?

Orangupineapple: Gladly. (Gets out a pair of pineapples)

Rusairus: (Looks over the pineapples) What is so special about those pineapples?

Orangupineapple: (Tosses them, which explode upon hitting the wall, making a huge hole)

Tinker Tonker: Ooooh my.

Rusairus: (Walks up to the hole in the wall and looks through it, to see the staircase leading downstairs)

Tinker Tonker: Mistress, I am so sorry about this.

Rusairus: (Turns around, with an angry-looking face) Why are you sorry? (Her eyes then are not so angry-looking anymore) That was fantastic!

Tinker Tonker: Fantastic?

Rusairus: Orangupinapple is just the monster we need to beat the Draconightgers.

Tinker Tonker: Oh. But what about the hole he just made in the wall?

Rusairus: I think what it needs is some webbing made into it.

Tinker Tonker: To fix it up?

Rusairus: That, and I think it will look great around the castle. Certainly something I will enjoy seeing anytime I go up and down the steps. Especially once the Draconightgers are destroyed and this world finally begins to me. Turantrax...

Turantrax: (Arrives) Yes, Mother?

Rusairus: Our latest monster made this hole in the wall. I need you to make a web in it.

Turantrax: I'm on it, Mother. (Goes to the hole and spits a web ball at it, creating a web in the hole, but it can still be seen through) There you go.

Rusairus: That's my boy.

Turantrax: (smile)

Tinker Tonker: But Orangupineapple can do more than just toss exploding pineapples. Would you like me to let him show you what else he can do?

Rusairus: He can show me when he gets out in the city.

Orangupineapple: Very well. I will not disappoint you. (Jumps onto the wall and begins to climb around the wall as he is making his way out the nearby window)

Tinker Tonker: That is another one of his abilities. He can climb up walls. I guess he is heading out in style.

Turantrax: Quite an impressive ability.

Orangupineapple then climbed out the window, and the three villains looked out to watch him climb all the way down to the ground before heading toward the city. Once he was out in the city, he found a grocery stand that was holding pineapples. He grabbed one and then began to squish the juice out of it into his mouth.

Male Crow Grocer: (Sees Orangupineapple) Hey, are you going to pay for that?

Orangupineapple: (Finishes drinking the pineapple juice and tosses the squeezed-out pineapple over his shoulder) Gladly, I'll pay like this. (Punches at the grocer, shocking him with electricity)

Male Crow Grocer: GAAAAH! (Looks burnt out)

Then, a mother bear and his two kids arrived to do some grocery shopping. But they stopped when they saw Orangupineapple. The mother was very cautious about the monster.

Orangupineapple: Ah, some more targets for me to hit. I think I'll hit them differently way. (Turns his fists into cannons and aims them at the family, then fires pineapple missiles at them)

Mother Bear: Get clear, kids! (Pulls both kids clear of the blast as it blows up the front wall of the grocery store)

Male Crow Grocer: Hey...my grocery store!

The other customers inside saw what had happened and they were shocked, but thankfully none of them were hurt. Orangupineapple then grabbed a couple of leaves from the tree on his head and then fired them at the customers. They avoided the hits, but the sharp leaves made a bigger mess on the inside of the grocery store. Then, Orangupineapple began to climb up the wall of the grocery store on the outside.

Male Crow Grocer: Hey, get back here! You have a grocery store to pay for!

But Orangupineapple was already gone. Over at Princeton's house, the Draconightgers were looking around for any ancient writing on the walls. Monty started off by moving the couch in the living room to see if there was anything written on the wall behind it.

Monty: (Looks to see a blank wall) Nothing. (Moves the couch back and then moves on)

Kathleen made an attempt at moving the refrigerator in the kitchen to see if there was anything written on the wall behind it.

Kathleen: (Looks at the wall to see only a tiny crack in the wall) Maybe there is something within that crack? (Goes to the crack and looks into it, but only sees darkness) I guess not. (Moves the refrigerator back into place)

Harry went up to the huge TV set in the living room and tried to move it, but it was too heavy for him.

Harry: (Tries to move it, but isn't strong enough) Come on. Move. (Keeps trying, but isn't able to) Are you hiding something behind you? (Keeps trying when Amanda comes in)

Amanda: Are you trying to move that TV out of the way, Harry?

Harry: What does it look like?

Amanda: For a bison, I would think that you would be strong enough.

Harry: I would have that that, too. But this TV is pretty much my match. It is lucky that it isn't a monster serving Rusairus, or I would just blow it up.

Amanda: I'm glad it isn't. Princeton would not be happy if you destroyed his TV.

Harry: Do you mind giving me a hand with it, Amanda?

Amanda: Mind? Not at all. I'll pull from the other side. (Goes over to the other side to pull)

Both Amanda and Harry tried to move the TV, but the two of them had a hard time moving it. Up in Princeton's bedroom, Jase was trying to pull Princeton's bed away from the wall. He had better luck in moving it than Amanda and Harry did with the TV, but it was still moving slowly.

Jase: (Pulls it slowly, but then feels pain in his arms) Oww! (Let's go of the bed and rubs his arms) Pulling this bed is such a pain. (Resumes pulling)

Princeton then came into the room and saw Jase pulling his bed back.

Princeton: Checking to see if there is any ancient writing on the wall behind my bed.

Jase: What else?

Princeton: Let me give you a hand there.

Jase: No, I got it. Oww. (Stops moving it and rubs his arms again)

Princeton: It is too much for you, Jase. It is hurting your arms doing it alone. Why don't you let me check the end of the bed for you?

Jase: OK.

Princeton looked at the end of his bed and saw that there was a small door on the wall behind his bed.

Princeton: Hey, there is something behind here. I never knew about this.

Jase went to take a look.

Jase: Oh great. Let's see if we can open it.

Princeton went for the handle in the door and tried to open it, but the bed wasn't pulled back far enough for them to open the door all the way.

Princeton: It is no use. We'll have to pull the bed back further.

Platia's Voice: We'll have to hold that off for the moment. (Jase and Princeton looked to see Platia at the door leading to the hall) We've got trouble in the city. A pineapple monster is out there causing trouble with some exploding pineapples and pineapple missiles coming from his hand cannons.

Jase: Great. Just when we found something.

Platia: Jase, you and the others head out there. Princeton and I will stay here and try to pull the bed back.

Jase: Very well.

Princeton: At least you'll get a chance to rest your arms, Jase.

Jase: Thanks for that.

Jase headed out into the hall while Platia and Princeton went to the end of the bed and did their best to pull it back. Jase soon arrived in the hall where Monty and Kathleen were still attempting to move some things.

Jase: We've got trouble in the city right now. Princeton and I found something behind his bed and he and Platia are working to get it opened.

Kathleen: That's great news, Jase.

Monty: Too bad we have to wait and see what it is.

They went into the living room where Harry and Amanda were, still trying to move the TV. They barely were able to move it at all.

Monty: Come on, guys. We have to fight against a monster right now.

Harry: (Stops pushing the TV) Very well.

Amanda: (Stops pulling the TV) I guess we'll take care of moving this TV later.

They all got together and got out their Draconight Keys.

All: Draconight Change! (The tiny knights danced and they were then transformed into their ranger forms, then headed out)

When they arrived in the city, they saw some civilians running.

Male Duck: Killer apples! Killer apples!

Female Rabbit: Run for your lives. They're trying to eat us.

Harry: Huh, apples trying to eat people.

Amanda: Usually, it is the other way around.

Jase: But I thought we were fighting a pineapple monster.

They then saw Orangupineapple with a bunch of running apples with sharp teeth coming their way.

Orangupineapple: You are, Draconightgers. But also my little apple army.

The army of little apples ran towards the Draconightgers.

Monty: Then it looks like we're cutting apples!

Everyone got out their swords and ran towards the apples. Swinging their swords, they managed to get most of the monster apples cut up, but a lot more of them landed on their bodies and began to munch off of them.

Jase: (Gets bitten) Oww! That hurt! (Gets bitten a few more times) Oww!

Amanda: (Swings to get some of the apples off of her, but more come towards her) How can we...ow...fight this little...ow...apples?

Harry: Ow! It is going to...oww... be though! That's for...oww...sure!

Monty managed to get enough of the monster apples off of his body long enough to swing his sword at Orangupineapple, but Orangupineapple split into two versions of himself.

Both Orangupineapples: Hah! You missed me!

Monty: We'll see about that! (Raises his sword, which lights up with fire) Fire attack! (Swings his sword at both Orangupineapples)

But both Orangupineapples then held some pineapples and squeezed the juice out of them to make Monty and the others slip and fall to the ground.

Monty: Whoa! (Falls onto his back, making his flame attack go up)

Others: Whoa! (Falls down on their backs)

Kathleen: That hurt so much! (Gets bitten again) Oww!

Over at Princeton's house, he and Platia were still in the process of moving Princeton's bed away from the wall so they could get the door behind his bed to open up all the way.

Both: (Stops moving it for a moment)

Princeton: Do you think we've moved it far bad enough? We're nearly at the wall at the other end of the room.

Platia: Let's take a look.

They both walked over to see that there was a lot more space between the door and the bed than there was earlier. Platia made an attempt at opening the door, but still couldn't get it quite open.

Platia: I think from here, we should push the bed from this end.

Princeton: Yeah. I think you are right.

But just as they were about to begin pushing, Platia got a call on her communication scale.

Platia: (Picks up her scale) Yes?

Monty's Voice: Platia, this monster is too much for us. He's made an army of killer apples and they are biting off of us as we speak. I think Princeton's lightning strikes are needed to clear them off.

Platia: I'll send him over straight away. (Turns to Princeton) Princeton, the others need you. I can handle moving the bed from here.

Princeton; Are you certain you can handle it on your own, Platia?

Platia: I'll be just fine. Besides, it isn't that much more work.

Princeton: OK then. If you insist. (Gets out his key and inserts it into his sword) Draconight Change. (The tiny knights danced, then he is transformed, then heads on out)

Over with the others, everyone was still working at getting the apples to get off of them, but it was no use.

Both Orangupineapples: I bet you now know how it feels when somebody bites into you a lot, right?

Monty: (Struggles to get some of the apples off)

Amanda: (Sighs) It isn't of any use.

Harry: Yeah. These apples are too much for us.

Just then, there was a lightning strike that hit the ground, this caused all of the apples to jump off of every Draconightgers' body.

Jase: Huh?

Kathleen; They all bounced off!

Princeton: (Runs in) Hey, guys. Are you all alright?

Amanda: We are now. Now that you're here.

Both Orangupineapples: No! How can that be possible?

Princeton: You better believe it! (Raises his sword to the sky) Lighting Blast! (Blasts the killer apples one by one, blowing them up into tiny pieces)

Both Orangupineapples: No! My apple army!

Princeton: And you're next!

Both Orangupineapples: I don't think so! (Creates another two pineapple missiles and prepares to fire them)

Princeton: Lighting Strike! (Fires lightning from his sword, hitting one missile and blowing one of the Orangupineapples up)

Orangupineapple: No! I've been half destroyed!

Princeton: And soon you'll be completely destroyed! Lighting Strike! (Fires lightning from his sword again and hits the other missile, blowing up the remaining Orangupineapple) That wraps up this fruity day.

Jase: I think that after this, I'm going to stick to my vegetables for a while. I don't believe I am saying that because I'm avoiding fruit, however.

Kathleen: Because normally if somebody says that, they mean desserts?

Jase: Obviously.

Harry: Now that this pineapple monster has been put out of the way, let's check back with Platia and see how she's done with moving that bed in your room, Princeton.

Princeton: Oh yeah. She probably has moved it all the way over by now.

They demorphed, then headed on back to Princeton's house. By that time, Platia had managed to get Princeton's bed moved all the way to the wall at the other end of the room.

Platia: Phew. That was exhausting. (Turns around) Now let's see what this hidden room has for us. (Walks over to the door, opens it up all the way, then goes inside)

The remaining Draconightgers had just entered Princeton's house. Ready to see if Platia had moved the bed over.

Princeton: Platia, we're back. Are you doing alright?

Platia's Voice: Guys, you are not going to believe this! Look what I found!

Amanda: (Gasps) Did you hear that?

Kathleen: Platia must have found something!

Jase: What are we waiting for? Let's go see!

The six of them hurried up the stairs to Princeton's room just as Platia was coming out with a huge treasure chest.

Princeton: Whoa! A treasure chest?

Monty: That is a great find!

Harry: Does it have something to help us open the doors in the basement?

Platia: This? Oh, no. But look what it does have! (Opens it up to reveal lots of dollar bills inside)

Others: Whoa!

Princeton: I...I never knew I had that in my house.

Monty: Wow. So this whole time, you turned out to be very rich, Princeton, and you never even knew it.

Princeton: I suppose since you helped to move the bed out of the way, Platia. Once your village is restored, I'll divide this money up by all of your people so you can begin your lives as civilized as the rest of us.

Platia: Wow! Thank you so much, Princeton.

Jase: It might be a good idea to keep it in a safe place.

Amanda: Why don't we just put it back where Platia found it? Nobody will suspect that it's there.

Harry: That is a good point.

Platia: But, we would then have to move the bed back again.

Princeton: It isn't that big of an issue. Once Rusairus has been defeated, we can all work together to get the bed moved back out of the way.

Platia: Well, alright then.

And so Platia put the chest back where she found it, closed the door, and then they all got to work pulling the bed back into place. That was quite the find, even if it isn't going to help the Draconightgers out right now. But at least the Dragon Village will have plenty of money once it has been restored.

To be continued...
