Breaking News: Comicgers Exposed! (Transcript)

This is the 27th episode of Justice Squadron: Comicger

One day, at the newsroom for Petropolis Local News, Wolf Spitzer and Dorothy Camel were having a conversation about how the Comicgers have been keeping them busy in the world of news. Apparently, ever since Darkanos and his cronies escaped from the comics, the local news has been very busy trying to keep up with the latest stories involving the Comicgers and their mission to stop Darkanos from taking over the city with his monsters. While they were talking, an intern gives Wolf a letter that might have to do with the Comicgers themselves.\*

Intern: Uh, this letter just arrived this morning. I think it might have to do with the Comicgers.

Wolf: Well, let me see it!

\*As the intern gives Wolf the letter, he opens it, and begins to read it.\*

Wolf: "Dear Petropolis News people, my friend Harold Ivory and I are on vacation this week, so we were thinking that maybe you can send one of your best investigative reporters out into the field, and try to figure out who the Comicgers truly are. And, if he or she are to find out, make sure that they give all of the credit to us. Because WE deserve it! Yours truly, Gerald Sanders. P.S. Make sure this gets broadcasted for all the world to see once you're finished." (folds the letter back up) Oh, boy. This sounds like a very daunting task for us.

Dorothy: I'll say. The Comicgers have been the biggest thing we've covered since that Adrian Sulk maniac that's been trying to reduce this city to a lifeless husk. So, having them unmasked on national TV would definitely be a tough task indeed.

Wolf: Oh, yes. But, I think our best investigative reporter is more than capable of getting the job done!   Oh, Bonnie!

\*Then, a young rabbit with brown and white fur, pink eyes, and brown hair done in a bun wearing a blue business suit with dark blue heeled boots, and a dark blue tie comes over to Wolf and Dorothy. She was Bonnie Rabbitine, the best investigative reporter Petropolis News ever has.\*

Bonnie: You called, Mr. Spitzer?

Wolf: Yes. This Gerald Sanders guy has given us a truly daunting task: trying to figure out who the Comicgers truly are underneath those helmets. Do you think you're up for the challenge?

Bonnie: Oh, yeah! I'm ALWAYS up for a challenging news story! You can count on me!

Dorothy: Very good, Bonnie! Oh, and try not to get kidnapped this time, okay?

Bonnie: Okay, I'll try not to!

\*Then, Bonnie gets into the news van with her camera man, a lizard named Bill, and they went out into Petropolis to try and find the true identities of the Comicgers. They then arrive at the downtown area, and they start waiting around for the Comicgers to show up.\*

Bonnie: Okay, the Comicgers should be here any moment by now.

Bill: Well, I don't think there's a monster attack going on around here. But, what are the odds of THAT happening?

\*Just then, a big yellow dog monster with two cannons, one on his left hand and the other on his tail, was firing bones from at various citizens as they tried to run and hide from him. Bonnie and Bill were watching this, and saw that it was the perfect opportunity to catch the Comicgers in action.\*

Bonnie: Well, you thought wrong, Bill! C'mon, get your camera! We gotta get this on camera! (starts getting out of the van, and starts running towards the danger)

Bill: (grabbing his camera, and following her)

Bonnie: This is Bonnie Rabbitine for Petropolis News with a breaking news story! Another one of Darkanos' monsters is attacking the downtown area of our fair city, and it looks like there's no end in sight! Unless, of course, the Comicgers come by, and put a spot to this!

K-90: (shooting his bones at everyone) It seems I got a bone to pick with you all!  Now, where are those Comicgers?

David: Right here, Fido!

\*Then, David, William, Paul, Monica, Katie, Steve, and Maple all leapt in front of K-90, and they begin to fight him.\*

Paul: Hey! That's K-90, from Comicgers Issue #90, appropriately!

Maple: Good call, dude! So, let's put this puppy down!

K-90: The only ones that're gonna be put down will be YOU twerps! And, I'm just the canine for the job!  (charges at the Comicgers, and begins to fight them)

David: C'mon, guys! (draws his Sketch Blade) Let's teach an old dog new tricks!

Comicgers: (drawing their Sketch Weapons as well) Yeah!

\*Then, the Comicgers start fighting with K-90 as Bonnie and Bill start recording the whole fight. As K-90 shoots his bones at Monica, she stops the shots with her Sketch Bow, and her arrows penetrate the bones no problem. This allowed Katie to throw her Sketch-A-Rangs at him, which he blocks and starts kicking her out of the way. But, William and Paul whack their Sketch Hammer and Sketch Escrimas in his head, and but he whips his tail at them, knocking them out of the way. Then, Maple comes at him with Platinum Rifle, and fires at him. This causes him to fall over on his back, nearly helpless.\*

David: Okay, guys! Let's put 'em together!

Comicgers: Right!

Bonnie: Oh, this is very exciting, folks! They're gonna form the Sketch-A-Zooka!

\*Then, the Comicgers all formed the Sketch-A-Zooka, and begin to aim it at K-90.\*

Comicgers: Sketch-A-Zooka! Ready!!! Aim! (aiming it at K-90)

K-90: Guess I didn't win best in show!

Comicgers: Comicgers: FIRE!!!!! (fires a blast of multicolored energy at K-90)

K-90: (howling in pain) AWHOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! I've been a bad doggy! (falls down and explodes, causing his spirit to go back to the comics)

David: Yeah, we did it!

Steve: Another monster back to the comics!

Monica: (noticing Bonnie recording the whole fight, and is about to unmask them) Hey, guys! What's that reporter doing here? Has she been recording the whole thing?

William: I guess she was covering our fight against K-90. Let's bail before she starts to do anything crazy with us!

Bonnie: Wow! What a victory! The Comicgers have sent another monster back to the comics where he originated from! Now, let's get a quick interview with our brave heroes. (rushes over to the Comicgers to interview them) Comicgers, this is Bonnie Rabbitine of the Petropolis Local News! You have saved our city from these monsters countless times, and never asked for anything in return. So, tell the folks at home what your secret is. (holds her microphone to David)

David: No secret, Miss Rabbitine. We're just a couple of brave individuals who feel like this city needs more heroes to deal with these hideous monsters!

Steve: Yeah! We're just to help, ma'am.

Monica: Yeah, what he said.

Bonnie: Fascinating. ^^ So, I'm sure many people around the country would like to know, who is it underneath those helmets? Are you average anthros like us, or strange, yet noble, aliens from another planet who just thought our planet needed help?

William: Uh.... that's still a bit of a classified, need to know thing! We don't like to give our identities to the public because we don't like getting the press all up in our faces.

Katie: Yeah. Anyway, we gotta go file our report. So, no more questions.

David: Well, it was nice chatting with you, Miss Rabbitine!

\*Then, the Comicgers begin to return to the studio, leaving Bonnie a bit disappointed with the outcome.\*

Bonnie: (turns back to the camera) Well, there goes a group of brave heroes! Who are they under those helmets? Who knows? But, we DO know that whenever there's trouble from Darkanos, the Comicgers will be there!  (cuts the camera shot, and decides to follow the Comicgers) C'mon, Bill! Let's follow them! I'm not giving up until I know who they are!

Bill: Okay, Bonnie! This is too good of a story to stop here!

Bonnie: Exactly! So, let's get going!

\*Then, Bonnie and Bill get back into the van, and proceed to follow the Comicgers on their Sketch Cycles back to the studio. Meanwhile, at Darkanos' fortress, Darkanos wasn't to thrilled to hear that K-90 has been defeated, but he has sent Infafre back down to the dungeon to get a new monster.\*

Darkanos: Another monster defeated by those brats! Well, I can't say I'm TOO surprised!

Rozoson: Well, my lord, I personally had no hopes for this one, though. I mean, a dog monster that can shoot bones? That's pretty lazy, if you ask me.

Darkanos: Yes, I agree. But, he was still pretty loyal to me. So, I can't forgive the Comicgers for that! I hope Infafre can fetch me a much better monster for me to use.

\*Then, Infafre returns to the throne room with a brand new monster for Darkanos to use.\*

Infafre: Master, even though K-90 failed to defeat the Comicgers, I'm sure this next monster will be far more challenging to them. He has the ability to trap his victims in prisons that resemble the stained glass windows you find in churches. I present to you... Stained Crash!

\*Then, a stony, gray monster resembling a walking church with a pair of wooden doors on his chest, alter-like gauntlets on his wrists, feet resembling the stairs of a church, a golden cross on his head resembling a roof, two gargoyles on his shoulders, and stained glass-like eyes with trees, clouds, and suns on it. He was Stained Crash, and he has the ability to trap his victims in stained glass like prisons.\*

Stained Crash: Greetings, my lord! I'm Stained Crash, and I vow to trap those Comicgers within my stained glass prisons!

Darkanos: Oh, really? Would you care to show me how it's done?

Stained Crash: Oh, absolutely! Paraxis, come at me!

\*Then, a couple of Paraxis come at Stained Crash with their laser spears, and once they got close enough, he then fires a laser beam from his stained glass eyes, and traps them inside pains of stained glass that drop down to the ground without them shattering into pieces.\*

Orvomon: Ooooooooo! Very nice!

Darkanos: (equally impressed) Likewise!

Stained Crash: And, in case I wanted to free them from their glass prisons... (opens his door chest, and shoots a beam that frees the Paraxis from their prisons) Behind my doors lies the beam that will free them. I probably won't do it on the Comicgers once I'm finished with them.

Darkanos: Fascinating. Now, I'd like you to go down to the city, and search for the Comicgers! Once you find them, don't hesitate! Blast them on sight! And, once you do, bring them before me!

Stained Crash: As you wish, sir! (bows to him)

Darkanos: Orvomon, assist Stained Crash on this assignment, and make sure he doesn't mess this up!

Orvomon: Oh, yes, my lord! At once! (disappears with Stained Crash back into the city)

Darkanos: Once all this is done, I'll have nice Comicgers windows decorating my fortress.  (laughs evilly)

\*Meanwhile, back at the studio, the Comicgers have de-morphed, and have just plopped themselves onto some chairs to relax after dealing with K-90. Stanley comes over to them, and congratulations them for dealing with him.\*

Stanley: Very nice job on dealing with K-90, kids. I'm sure Petropolis is breathing a HUGE sigh of relief right now.

David: I'm sure it is, Dad.

Paul: However, we did run into this news reporter who seemed a bit TOO curious about our true identities. I'm pretty sure Gerald and Harold put her up to this.

Katie: But, how can they? Aren't they on vacation?

Maple: They probably sent a letter to the news studio before they left, leaving someone to inconvenience us while they're away.

Steve: Most likely.

Stanley: This is what I was afraid of ever since we began our battle against Darkanos. If the media figures out your true identities, they'll most likely label this as a publicity stunt, and I'll never hear the end of it!

Maple: So, is THAT why you want us to keep our identities a secret? To keep everyone from thinking it's a big publicity stunt?

William: Yup. Apparently, Mr. Chippendale likes his privacy while he works on his comics.

Stanley: Exactly! So, the next time you find this reporter, make sure she doesn't find out.

Steve: But, what if she does?

Stanley: Then, like with anyone else who found out, we have to make her swear to secrecy, and sure she doesn't post our true identities on the local news!

David: Sure thing, Dad!

Stanley: Good. Now, you all better head home, and get some rest. I'm sure Big Louie would want you all nice and relaxed for work tomorrow.

Monica: Sure thing, Mr. C.

\*Then, the Comicgers all left the studio, and went back home to get some rest. The next day, the Comicgers all arrive at work at Crystal Comics, and they were going about their daily jobs as usual. But, Paul and William started to notice a strange looking bunny man browsing through the store, and "he" seemed to be looking for something.\*

Paul: (approaching the bunny) Uh, may we help you, sir?

Bunny: Uh, yes. I'm looking for the Comicgers. Do you know where I could find them?

William: Oh, yes. Back issues of the Comicgers comics are on the left of the store just behind the T-shirts. Are you looking to catch up on the series, sir?

Bunny: Actually, yes, I am.  But, I'd like to know where their base of operations are.

Paul: Well, I'm sure you'll find it in the first issue, sir.

Bunny: Oh, thank you. ^^ (goes over to the Comicgers back issues, and starts "looking through" them) Hmmmmmmm. I wonder....

\*Then, Paul and William call the other Comicgers over to them, because they think that the bunny is actually Bonnie in disguise, looking for them.\*

David: What is it, Paul?

Paul: Well, I think that's the reporter from yesterday, who tried to get us to reveal our true identities on national TV. She was asking us where the Comicgers were, so I directed her to the back issues in the store.

Monica: She's persistent, isn't she?

William: Yeah! But, we gotta make sure she doesn't find out, or everyone's gonna think it's a big publicity stunt!

Maple: Oh, totally! So, whaddaya say we lead her astray?

Katie: Good idea!  (heads towards the bunny, and asks "him" if "he's" found what he was looking for) So, sir? Have you found what you're looking for?

Bunny: Oh, no. None of this is what I was looking for. I guess I'm just not looking in the right place.

Katie: Huh?  Well, then. Have you ever checked the bookstore down the road a piece? I'm sure they'll have exactly what you're looking for.

Bunny: Oh, okay. Maybe THAT will help. (looks at "his" watch) Well, I'd better be going. Thank you for your time! (heads out of the store, and goes back into the news van)

Bill: So, did you find them?

Bonnie: (removing her disguise) No, I haven't! A couple of employees pointed me to the Comicgers comics, but they obviously weren't what I was looking for at all! However, another employee suggested that we check out the bookstore down the road. I'm pretty sure it's the lead I'm looking for! One way or another, I WILL find out who those Comicgers are! This story is TOO good to pass up!

Bill: Okay, then! (hits the gas, and starts driving to the bookstore)

Katie:  I'm sure THAT'LL keep her busy!

Steve: Yeah! Let's hope this works out!

David: Yeah!

\*Then, the Comicgers get a buzz on their Comic Turners, and they duck down to answer them.\*

David: What's going on, Dad?

Stanley: "Sorry to bother you, but Darkanos has sent another monster down to trash the city! You'd better get to the pier immediately!"

David: We're on it, Dad! (cuts the feed) Man, if we all leave, Big Louie's gonna start asking questions. Maybe some of us will leave, and the rest should stay here to avoid suspicion.

William: Don't worry, David. Monica and I will go! The rest of you stay here!

Maple: Well, in that case, I'm going with you!

Steve: Me too! It's been a while since I've seen action!

David: Okay! But, once the monster is dealt with, get back here immediately!

Monica: You got it, David!

\*Then, William, Monica, Steve, and Maple start to leave, and Big Louie starts to ask them where they were going.\*

Big Louie: Hey, where are you guys going in such a rush?

Steve: Oh, it's our.... uh.... lunch break. We wanna get to Burger Kong before the lines get super long!

Maple: Yeah! You know how I feel about my Triple Banana Burgers.

Big Louie: Oh, yeah! They're amazing!  Okay, have fun. ^^

Monica: Thanks. ^^ (leaves with William, Steve, and Maple)

Big Louie: (seeing that David, Paul, and Katie are staying behind) You're not going with them?

Paul: Oh, we're not hungry.

Katie: (pulling up a lunch box) And, I brought my own lunch. ^^

\*Meanwhile, over by the pier, Stained Crash and Orvomon were terrorizing the people that were walking by there. Stained Crash was using his eye beams to trap the people inside his stained glass prisons while Orvomon was breaking into various picnic baskets, and pulling out some tasty treats that he could get his grimy mits on.\*

Orvomon: (pulling out a rack of ribs from a picnic basket) Mmmmmmmmmmm. Nothing like smokey BBQ ribs!  (gobbles them down in one gulp)

Stained Crash: And, these may not be the Comicgers, but I think these windows would look just as nice in the fortress. ^^

\*As everyone was running and hiding, William, Monica, Steve, and Maple arrive at the scene to face the two villains.\*

Maple: Aaaawwww, we're not getting those Banana Burgers?

William: (smacking Maple upside the head) No, Maple! We're here to fight these creeps!

Maple: Oh, yeah.  Sorry.

Monica: (recognizing Stained Crash) Hey, guys! That's Stained Crash, from Comicgers Issue #29! He's got the ability to trap his victims inside stained glass windows!

Steve: Well, then. I guess we'll need to be careful, huh?

Monica: Extremely! So, let's kick his alters! (holds up her Comic Turner) Ready?

William, Steve, and Maple: (holding up theirs) Ready!

Comicgers: Comic Turners, activate! (the Comic Turners convert to their original forms) Comic Powers!

Steve: (pushing a button on his Liberty Turner) Liberty Powers!

Maple: (flicking the on switch on her Platinum Turner) Platinum Powers!

Comicgers: Turn On! (flick the on switch on their Comic Turners, and morph into their Ranger forms)

William: C'mon, guys! Let's crack that window!

Monica, Steve, and Maple: Right!

\*As they charge towards the villains, Orvomon notices them, and starts to attack them as well.\*

Orvomon: Ah, there are those brats! Now, let's teach them not to go poking around in other people's business! PARAXIS, ARISE!!!!

\*Then, a couple of Paraxis materialize in front of Orvomon and Stained Crash.\*

Orvomon: ATTACK!!!

\*Then, the Paraxis draw their laser spears and start fighting the Comicgers. The Comicgers were able to engage them, and they began fighting with them. Meanwhile, at the bookstore, Bonnie realized that she was led astray, and decides to return to Crystal Comics to get the REAL answers from there.\*

Bonnie: I can't believe those kids led me on a wild goose chase! We're heading back to Crystal Comics to get some answers from the employees!

Bill: (seeing some monster activity at the pier) Uh, Bonnie! We've got some monster activity going on at the pier! (shows her the readings on the GPS) I'm guessing the Comicgers are there dealing with it!

Bonnie: Well, then let's not waste anymore time! Let's get over there, and cover that battle!

\*As Bonnie gets back into the van, Bill drives at lightning speeds to the pier, and they arrive to find the Comicgers already fighting the Paraxis, Orvomon, and Stained Crash.\*

Bonnie: (getting out with a microphone in her hand) Hurry up, Bill! We gotta get this scoop, and fast!

Bill: (getting out with his camera) I'm coming! I'm coming!

\*As Bonnie was getting closer to the fight, she failed to notice that Stained Crash has his eyes set on her.\*

Stained Crash: Ah, it looks someone wants to be my latest window masterpiece! Now, hold still! (fires his blast at Bonnie, trapping her in a stained glass prison) Ah, now that looks perfect!

Monica: (kicking a Paraxi out of the way, and seeing that Stained Crash has trapped Bonnie) Oh, no! Miss Rabbitine!  (getting mad at Stained Crash) You'll pay for that, Notre Dumb!

Stained Crash: I won't have to, Comic Yellow! 'Cause I'll be adding YOU next!

Steve: Not on MY watch! C'mon, Monica!

\*Then, Monica and Steve start fighting Stained Crash while William and Maple were left battling Orvomon. Monica draws her Art Laser in sword mode, and slashes away at Stained Crash. However, his stony body prevents him from getting hurt, and he proceeds to kick her in the face as a result of her attack. Then, Steve thrusts his Holo-Shield at Stained Crash, and he starts to push it back towards him.\*

Stained Crash: You can't push ME from my foundation!

Steve: Wanna bet? (pushes even harder)

\*While Steve was trying to fight the force given by Stained Crash, William and Maple were fighting with Orvomon over by the water's edge. He swings his mace at the two Rangers, but William was able to stop it with his Sketch Hammer, and he pushes him away from the edge, and he smacks him to the ground.\*

William: See? This is what happens when you don't exercise like I do.

Orvomon: Well, I'm getting my five-a-day right now by destroying you, you little twerp! (gets back up, and swings his mace at him)

Maple: (coming in, and giving Orvomon a good kick to the stomach, causing him to fall back over on his butt) Man, and I thought the food I ate was going right to my thighs.

William: Aw, c'mon Maple. I think you look great.

Maple: (blushing like mad) Oh, really?

William:

\*Then, Orvomon gets back up, and continues to swing his mace at them. Meanwhile, Steve was able to push Stained Crash away, and began powering up his Holo-Shield to stop Stained Crash.\*

Steve: Holo-Shield, power up! (the Holo-Shield reaches full power) Final Attack! FIRE!!!! (throws his Holo-Shield at Stained Crash, sending him flying from an explosion)

Stained Crash: (landing on his face, and starts going back to Orvomon) Well, trapping these Comicgers is gonna be tougher than I thought!

Orvomon: (picking up Bonnie in her stained glass prison) Well, at least we were able to get a couple of good stained glass windows to decorate the fortress. But, mark my words, Comicgers! We WILL be back for you!

Stained Crash: See ya! (disappears back to the fortress with Bonnie in tow)

Monica: Darn it! They got away with that reporter!

William: Don't worry, Monica. We'll get her back! I swear it on my mother's grave!

Monica: Dude. Your mom's still alive.

William: It's just an expression.  Anyway, let's find a good place to de-morph without getting caught!

Maple: Okay! But, can we stop back at Burger Kong? I really AM getting hungry. (stomach growls)

Steve: Yeah, I'm starting to get hungry, too. Let's go!

\*They then went over to a nearby alleyway to hide in so they can de-morph. But, unknown to them, Bill was following them with his camera, and was able to record them de-morphing. After they did so, they went over to Burger Kong to order some lunch, and on their way back to Crystal Comics, they run into Bill, who was shooting the video of them de-morphing in his grasp.\*

William: Uh, may we help you?

Bill: No need. 'Cause I got what we need right here! (holds up the tape) We know your secret, now!

Monica: W-What secret?

Bill: I've taped you guys de-morphing in the alley, and we just need the other three to reveal themselves in front of us. (recognizing them from earlier) Wait. You guys work at that Crystal Comics place, don't you?

Maple: Uh-oh!

Bill: So, you guys sent us to the bookstore just to throw us off. (suddenly starts putting two and two together) Wait. Those other three are the remaining Comicgers, too! (starts getting excited) Now, I just need to get them morphing on camera, too!

Steve: GET THAT TAPE!!!!

William: (tackling Bill, and grabbing the tape) I got it!

Steve: Quick, let's get it back to the studio, and give it to Mr. Chippendale!

Bill: (seeing all his hard work go to waste) NO!!!!! I worked REALLY hard to get that tape!

Monica: (suddenly remembering that Stained Crash and Orvomon have Bonnie) Wait a sec! You're the camera man that followed that reporter when she was snooping around Crystal Comics, aren't you?

Bill: Yes?

Monica: Well, I hate to tell ya this, but your fellow reporter has been trapped in stained glass by that monster we were just fighting!

Bill: WHAT?!? Oh, no!!! This isn't gonna look good on my paycheck!

Monica: Don't worry. We'll get her back. I promise.

Bill: I'll tell ya what, if you rescue Bonnie from that monster, I'll keep your secret from everyone.

Monica: Deal! (shakes Bill's hand)

Maple: We gotta show the others this tape! C'mon! (hears her stomach growling) But, first I'd like to finish this Triple Banana Burger! (starts finishing her Triple Banana Burger)

Steve: Oh, very well. ^^

\*They started finishing their lunches, and proceeded to make their way back to the studio. Meanwhile, at Darkanos' fortress, Darkanos and his men wearing hanging up the stained glass windows in his throne room, and he was quite pleased with how they turned out.\*

Darkanos: Ah, very nice. ^^ I'm quite liking how these stained glass-imprisoned citizens look. Although, they don't seem to match the curtains.

Stained Crash: Oh, I'm so sorry, my lord! I had no idea you were so picky about the curtains!

Rozoson: Never mind the curtains! I'm sure the throne room will look just as extravagant once we add the Comicgers to this collection of windows!

Darkanos: Oh, yes, of course! And, once we have the Comicgers added to this collection, we'll not only have them in our grasp, but we'll be leaving Petropolis defenseless in our attack on it!

Rozoson: Ah, of course! That's definitely a win-win for us!

Darkanos: Exactly! Now, before we finish up against them, we need to finish up with re-decorating the throne room.

Stained Crash: Oh, yes! (gives Darkanos the stained glass Bonnie) Here's a nice one! I'm sure it'll brighten up the throne room perfectly. ^^

Darkanos: (looking at the stained glass) Oh, that IS very nice. ^^ Just right for the throne room.

\*Then, Darkanos gives Bonnie to a couple of Paraxis that were overseeing the re-decoration, and they start to put it in place. Back at the studio, David, Paul, and Katie were brought up to speed on what just happened, and they immediately went to Stanley with the tape that Bill took of Steve, Maple, William, and Monica de-morphing in the alley way.\*

Stanley: That lizard did WHAT?!?

Maple: He recorded us de-morphing, and he was threatening to broadcast it all over the world if we hadn't interfered.

Monica: That was, until we told him that the reporter he worked for was captured by Stained Crash, and is now being used to become a piece of Darkanos' décor!

William: Yup.

Stanley: Well, this IS quite a predicament. Did he promise to keep the secret if you rescue this reporter in question?

David: Yeah, but we don't know if he'll actually keep that promise.

Katie: So, we'll have to keep an eye on him to make sure he doesn't break that promise!

Stanley: See that you do! Now, getting back to the topic of Stained Crash, there IS a way to reverse his spell, and free his victims from their stained glass prisons! Once he opens the doors on his chest, he releases a beam that could release them from their prisons.

Steve: That doesn't sound too bad, except that he most likely won't say "yes" to doing so.

Stanley: Well, we won't have to ask him. We can just trick him into opening the doors, and once he does, we'll have Maple fire her Platinum Rifle right into it, causing a chain reaction that can make every stained glass prison to be destroyed, freeing the captured victims!

Maple: Sounds great, Mr. Chippendale! But, how can we trick him into opening his own doors?

Stanley: Well, I think the best way to do so is to go to Darkanos' fortress, and gloat Stained Crash into doing so. Once he gets offended, he'll have no choice but to use his counter spell on the windows, and when he does, Maple will fire the shot at him.

Paul: But, how're we gonna get into Darkanos' fortress?

David: Answer: We make it look like we're surrendering, and they'll have no choice but to take us prisoner.

William: How will THAT work?

David: Well, once we arrive at Darkanos' fortress, we'll gloat Stained Crash by saying that we'd make better stained glass windows than a couple of common people. THAT'S when we make our move!

Steve: (thinking this plan just might work) Y'know, I think this plan could actually work.

Katie: And, if the bad guys suspect that we're up to something, we can just put away our Comic Turners so they won't suspect anything!

Stanley: Excellent! And, once that reporter is rescued, you'd better make her promise not to show that tape on the news, otherwise everyone will think this is nothing but a huge publicity stunt! And, with that said, good luck, kids!

David: Don't worry, Dad. I'm sure we'll make it through this.

\*Later, the Comicgers arrive at Darkanos' fortress in the news van, and they begin to put their plan into motion. Bill was looking on with concern for them because he just wants Bonnie to be brought back to the newsroom safe and sound.\*

Bill: I sure hope you kids know what you're doing!

David: Relax, Bill. Would my dad have trusted the powers of his own creations to us if we DIDN'T know?

Bill:  Good point.

Steve: Okay, kids! Let's remove our Comic Turners so that Darkanos doesn't think we're trying to trick one of his monsters.

\*Then, the Comicgers remove their Comic Turners, and they get out of the van with a white flag of truce as they approach the fortress' front gate.\*

David: (waving the flag back and forth) We surrender!!!

Grunemitt: (patrolling the fortress walls with some Paraxis) What the...?!? Please tell me I'm going crazy, but it looks like the Comicgers are surrendering! (looks down at the Comicgers) What is the meaning of this surrender, you little ingrates?!?

William: After our encounter with Stained Crash, we realized that your master has sent the ultimate monster to do us in!

Maple: As a token of our good will, we hereby give ourselves up to the greatness that is Darkanos, and have decided to become one of his stained glass windows.

Monica: Yeah, so if you would just let us into your fortress, we will offer our immediate surrender to him personally! (under her breath) As if.

Grubemitt: (thinking it over, and coming to a conclusion) Okay, fine. You twerps may enter, but I got my eye on you!

\*Then, Grunemitt opens the gate, and lowers the drawbridge, letting the Comicgers in. Once the Paraxis were able to put them in chains, they were brought before Darkanos, who was still going over the stained glass windows when he saw the Comicgers beig brought before him.\*

Darkanos: So, you twerps finally admitted defeat at my hands, haven't you? I knew it was a matter of time before you did so.

David: Yup, Darkanos. We finally realized that you're no match for us.

Katie: So, as a token of our surrender, we have agreed to sacrifice ourselves, and become part of your new stained glass window set.

Stained Crash: Well, why didn't you say so? (starts firing up his eye beams, and aims it at the Comicgers)

Paul: Hold it! Before you do us in, don't you think you should get rid of a few stained glass windows? I mean, I'm sure your master would want stained glass images of his mortal enemies rather than random people off the streets, right?

Darkanos: (thinking about it) He makes a good point, y'know.

Stained Crash: (thinking about it as well) Fine. I'll set a few of my victims free. We could use some slaves to clean the windows, anyway. (opens the doors on his chest, and is about to use his counter spell on a few windows)

David: (seeing the perfect opportunity to strike) NOW, MAPLE!!!!!

Maple: (picking the locks on her chains, lets herself out, and puts her Platinum Turner back on) Platinum Turner, activate! (the Platinum Turner converts to its original form) Platinum Powers! Turn On! (flicks the on switch on her Platinum Turner, and morphs into her Ranger) Alright, it's now or never! (draws her Platinum Rifle, and aims it at Stained Crash's chest)

Rozoson: (seeing that it was a trick) IT'S A TRICK!!!!!!

\*But, it was too late. Maple fires a blast of Platinum Energy at Stained Crash's chest, and upon contact, it causes his counter spell to backfire, causing the people in the stained glass windows to be free from their prisons, including Bonnie, who couldn't believe that she was free.\*

Darkanos: (annoyed by this turn of events) I knew it was TOO good to be true. >:I

Bonnie: (excited) Hooray!!! I'm free! (turns around to see the Comicgers, who had just broken free from their chains, and fought the Paraxis out of the way) Wait a minute. YOU were the Comicgers this whole time?

David: Oh, yeah! Your cameraman video taped us while we were de-morphing. He's waiting for you outside in his news van!

Bonnie: Okay, great! (starts making her way outside, but stops to apologize to them) Look, you guys! I'm very sorry about trying to muscle in your secret. I was just doing my job, and I was told to do so by someone named Gerald Sanders.

William: Gerald and Harold?

Katie: Oh, geez! I should've known!

Bonnie: You know him?

Monica: Yeah. He and his friend Harold Ivory have been trying to figure out that we're the Comicgers ever since we got our powers. They've come up with all sorts of crazy ways to do so!

Bonnie: Oh, that would explain a lot.

Steve: Yeah, you're telling me.

Darkanos: (butting in) I'd hate to break up this little revelation, but I'm still standing here!!!

David: Oh, right.  Go now, Miss Rabbitine! We'll deal with this clown!

Bonnie: Uh, okay! (starts fleeing the fortress grounds with the other freed victims)

Darkanos: I should've known that you twerps were up to something!

David: Well, Darkanos! You're messing with the wrong group of kids! (holds up his Comic Turner) Ready, guys?

William, Paul, Katie, Monica, and Steve: (holding up theirs) Ready!

Comicgers: Comic Turners, activate! (the Comic Turners convert to their original forms) Comic Powers!

Steve: (pushing a button on his Liberty Turner) Liberty Powers!

Comicgers: Turn On! (flicking the on switch on their Comic Turners, and morph into their Ranger forms)

Darkanos: PARAXIS, RIP THEM TO PIECES!!!!!!!

\*Then, the Paraxis draw their laser spears, and charge at the Comicgers as they draw their Sketch Weapons, and begin fighting them. Paul was flipping his way out of the Paraxis' line of fire, and whacking them with his Sketch Escrimas. Then, Grunemitt buzzes in, and strikes at him with his swords.\*

Grunemitt: I knew you twerps were up to something!

Paul: Yeah, did you REALLY think we'd surrender to YOU? (swings his Sketch Escrimas at Grunemitt)

\*Then, Grunemitt starts fighting back against Paul with his swords, and Paul blocks the strikes with his Sketch Escrimas. Meanwhile, Katie and Monica were keeping a couple of Paraxis at bay while Steve deals with Rozoson as he blocks the strikes from his spear with his Holo-Shield.\*

Rozoson: (enraged) You ingrates!!! I knew you couldn't be trusted!

Steve: Really? You should try looking in a mirror sometime! (axe kicks Rozoson in the face)

\*Rozoson retaliates by punching Steve in the face, and Steve continues to battle him for a bit. Meanwhile, William starts battling with Orvomon, who was swinging his mace at him, as he flips to avoid the strikes. He then draws his Sketch Hammer, and begins to swing it at Orvomon, who gets hit in the head with it, causing him to fall over. Meanwhile, Maple was using her Platinum Rifle to blast a couple of Paraxis out of her way, until encounter Stained Crash, who was one more trick up his sleeve.\*

Stained Crash: So, Comic Platinum! (pulls out a couple of candle-like bombs) How would you like my little candle treatment?

Maple: Somehow I doubt they'll be dancing candlesticks!

\*Then, Stained Crash throws his candle bombs at Maple, but she luckily dodges the blasts, and she starts fighting Stained Crash head on. Meanwhile, David slashes his way though a couple of Paraxis who were firing their laser spears at him, and then, Darkanos charges at David, and starts fighting with him.\*

Darkanos: I've been waiting a long time for this, boy!

David: So have I. (starts slashing his way at Darkanos)

Darkanos: (blocking the strikes with his forearms, and throwing a massive right hook at David)

\*Then, David quickly dodges the strikes from Darkanos, and starts to trade a few blows with him. After a while, David flip kicks at Darkanos, which only causes him to get knocked back a bit, and starts to make his escape with the other Comicgers.\*

David: C'mon, guys! Let's get outta here and fast!

William, Paul, Katie, Monica, Steve, and Maple: Right!

\*Then, the Comicgers make their escape from the fortress, leaving Darkanos annoyed and angry.\*

Darkanos: (clenching his fist in anger, making it glow purple) CURSE THOSE KIDS!!!! (signals Stained Crash to stop them) You! Stop them!

Stained Crash: Yes, my lord! (starts running after them)

\*The Comicgers were able to escape from the fortress, and return to the news van safely, but Stained Crash was able to catch up with them, and is ready to destroy them.\*

Stained Crash: Hold it, Comicgers! You're not going anywhere until we finish this!

Blaludon: (appearing beside him) And, let me help you drive home the point! (blows one of her magic kisses at Stained Crash)

David: Oh, no! Blaludon's blowing one of her magic kisses at Stained Crash!

Bonnie: What happens when she does that?

Stained Crash: (getting hit by the kiss, and growing ten stories taller) Now, I can make bigger and better windows!

Paul: THAT'S what happens!

David: But, don't worry! We got this! (contacts Stanley) Dad, you'd better send the Action Vehicles!

Stanley: You got it, son! (uses the magic gemstone to bring the Action Vehicles and the Platinum Rider to life, and they start heading towards the Comicgers' current location)

David: Thanks, Dad! (cuts the feed)

Steve: I'll stay here, and protect Bonnie and Bill!

Bonnie: No way, Mr. American Flag! I'm getting this on camera!

Steve:

David: Well, anyway, let's go!

\*Then, the Comicgers all get into their Action Vehicles and log on, while Steve stays on the ground to protect Bonnie and Bill.\*

David: Comic Racer, ready to go!

William: Comic Tumbler, all set!

Paul: Comic Armorer, online!

Monica: Comic Turbine, flyin' high!

Katie: Comic Mini, revvin' up!

Maple: Platinum Rider, burnin' rubber!

David: Alright, guys! Let's form Action Comic Robo!

\*Then, the Action Vehicles come together to form the Action Comic Robo. Meanwhile, Bonnie has her microphone out, and Bill starts rolling the camera as she starts getting the whole battle on tape.\*

Bonnie: This is Bonnie Rabbitine with live coverage of the Comicgers doing battle with one of Darkanos' monsters! I tell you, that Stained Crash is one tough cookie, but I think the Comicgers got this in the bag because they've got the power of teamwork on their side!

Stained Crash: (pulls out his candle bombs) Now, it's time I burned my candle at both ends with you, Comicgers! (throws his candle bombs at the ACR)

\*The ACR quickly avoids the blasts, and marches towards Stained Crash, where it gives him a good left hook to his face. Stained Crash retaliates by kicking the ACR in its side, and the ACR gives him a good uppercut to his stomach. And, all the while, Maple drives by in the Platinum Rider, firing her missiles at Stained Crash, which does a bit of damage to him.\*

Maple: Man! The missiles did SOMETHING to him, but not enough! There's gotta be some way to overpower this guy!

David: (thinking of something very carefully, and suddenly comes up with an idea) I think I got it!

Katie: What is it, David?

David: Follow my lead, guys!

\*Then, the ACR dodges another blast from Stained Crash's candle bombs, and it runs over to the Platinum Rider. Then, without hesitation, the ACR jumps on the back of the Platinum Rider, and starts driving it like an actual motorcycle.\*

Maple: (feeling the weight of the ACR on the Platinum Rider) Hey! No free rides!!!

David: Be quiet and drive, woman!

Bonnie: (not believing what she saw) It's incredible!!! The Action Comic Robo has jumped on top of the Platinum Rider, and is now riding it like a real motorcycle! I'm sure this'll give them the advantage they need against that big, stupid, ugly monster!

\*Then, the ACR starts driving the Platinum Rider towards Stained Crash, and it zooms past him, making him lose his balance. Once Stained Crash finds his footing, they fire the Platinum Rider's missiles him, causing him to collapse to the ground.\*

William: Man, I like this new formation! It's really powerful!

Monica: Me too! Whaddaya think we should call it?

Maple: (having an idea) How about the Action Comic Rider Robo?

David: A bit of a mouthful, but I like it! ^^ Now, let's send this walking cathedral back to the comics!

Comicgers: Right!

\*Then, the ACRR draws one of the Platinum Rider Twin Blasters, and starts speeding towards Stained Crash.\*

Stained Crash: Uh-oh!

Comicgers: Platinum Rider Twin Blaster! FINAL ATTACK!!! Ready! Aim! FIRE!!!

\*Then, the ACRR starts charging up its pistol, and once it was fully charged, it fires at Stained Crash, and it makes a direct hit.\*

Stained Crash: NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! I guess I didn't keep the faith this time!!! (falls down and explodes, sending his spirit back to the comics)

\*Back over by the news van, Stained Crash finds a copy of Issue #29 that Bill brought for a little bit of reading material, and get zapped back into it. While that happened, Bonnie has just finished up her live report.\*

Bonnie: Wow! With that new formation, the Comicgers were able to send another of Darkanos' cronies back to the comics, giving Petropolis one less monster to worry about. Whoever they are, I just wanna say thank you Comicgers for being there to stop these evil beasts!  This is Bonnie Rabbitine, Petropolis Local News!

\*After Bill stops recording the story, he and Bonnie head over to Steve, who was celebrating another victory for the Comicgers.\*

Steve: Yeah! Way to go, guys!

Bonnie: Those kids sure are something, huh? Look, we're sorry for trying to expose your true identities on the news.  Can you forgive us?

Steve: What do you mean? Of course, we do. If there's something that I pride myself on, it's that I always learn to forgive and forget. ^^

Bonnie: Oh, I'm SO glad. ^^ (gives Steve a big hug)

Steve: (blushes, and hugs Bonnie back) Oh, totally.

Bill: But, uh, what about the story?

Bonnie: (looks at Bill with a smug look on her face)

\*The next day at Crystal Comics, the Comicgers were working as usual, when Bonnie comes back in to tell them that the news have decided not to show their true identities on national TV. She approaches David, who was organizing the back issues of the Comicgers comics, and she begins to tell him the news she has.\*

Bonnie: Hello there, David. Do you mind if I have a minute with you and your friends?

David: You'd better not be here for another interview, are you?

Bonnie: No, of course not. ^^ I'm here to tell you about the tape Bill took of you guys de-morphing. We've decided not to show it on TV in the next newscast.

David:  How'd you get the rest of the news crew to comply?

Bonnie: Bring your friends over and I'll tell you. ^^

\*Then, the other Comicgers meet up with David, and they join Bonnie in the reading lounge so she can tell them why she decided not to show their secret identities on TV.\*

Maple: So, what's this about?

Bonnie: Well, when Bill and I got back to the newsroom, we decided to go to the editing room, and erase all the footage of you kids de-morphing, and converted it to a blank tape. When Wolf and Dorothy asked me about what I found, I merely just told them that I couldn't find the Comicgers anywhere, and said that if I did find them, they wouldn't agree to tell me since they're so secretive.

William: Oh, that's great. But, I'm real sorry that you didn't get that "scoop of the century" you were looking for.

Bonnie: Ah, don't worry about it. There will be LOADS of other "scoops of the century" in the future. As long as there's exciting stuff going on in the world, the news will always be there.

Steve: Well, I tell ya, there's PLENTY going on nowadays.

Katie: However, what're gonna do about...?

\*Then, Gerald and Harold enter the store dressed in Hawaiian shirts, swimming trunks, sunglasses, and straw hats because they had just returned from their vacation. They came to the store to ask Bonnie if she's found the Comicgers or not.\*

Gerald: We're  BAAAAAAACK!!!!

Big Louie: Hello there, boys. How was Hawaii?

Harold: Very nice! I got me a nice golden gray tan. ^^ (lifts up his Hawaiian shirt) Wanna see?

Monica: (stopping him) Uh, no! I'll take your word for it!

Gerald: (seeing Bonnie) Ah, this must be the Petropolis news reporter we hired to find the Comicgers? So, have you found them de-morphing? If so, make sure you credit US for it!

Bonnie: Well, I hate to disappoint you boys, but I couldn't find the Comicgers anywhere.

Gerald: (outraged) WHAT?!?!?

Bonnie: And, besides, I don't think it's fair that I would do all the work, and YOU get all the credit. I think hard work pays off better if YOU do it yourself.

Harold: Well, she's got ya there, Gerald.

Gerald: (scoffs) Drat! Well, I guess she IS right! I think it'll feel better if WE were the ones to find out who the Comicgers REALLY are! I knew I shouldn't trust these stuffy news types! C'mon, Harold! It's back to the drawing board!

Harold: Whatever you say.

\*Then, Gerald and Harold leave the store, and the Comicgers all breathed a sigh of relief.\*

Paul:  What a relief.

Steve: Yeah, but they'll be back to try again.

Katie: Yeah, and they'll bungle through it like always. ^^

Maple: Totally. ^^

Bonnie: But, I'd STILL like to find that big news story that I can show on national TV! (looks at Big Louie, and gets an idea) Hey, you! I bet I can get a GREAT story out of you! You mind if I get an interview with you?

Big Louie: Well, if it means more publicity for my store, sure. Why not?

Bonnie: Great!

\*Then, Bill comes in with the camera, and starts recording the interview Bonnie starts having with Big Louie.\*

Bonnie: So, Big Louie, how did you gain such an interest in comics in the first place?

Big Louie: Well, Miss Rabbitine, it started when I was a cute little orangutan swinging on the monkey bars at school...

David: Well, it seems that everyone wants their half hour of fame. ^^

William: You're telling me.

\*The Comicgers looked on as Bonnie continued her interview with Big Louie about Crystal Comics.\*

THE END
