Pins and Needles (Skyranger Transcript)

This is the 28th episode of Soaring Squadron: Skyranger.

Out in a desert, there was a walking cactus monster. His name was Prickly Pete. He was sent by Captain Bananabeard to cause trouble, but he was lost.

Prickly Pete: Ugh, that Bananabeard guy said to cause trouble, but there's no trouble to cause out here in the desert.

He traveled for a while until he reached a point of water.

Prickly Pete: Aha. I could drain that water. Only, I don't have the capability to do that.

And it turned out it was just an illusion anyway as the pond vanished.

Prickly Pete: Stupid fake pond. I'll just have to find someplace else to do some damage.

Prickly Pete traveled for a while until he met up with an old friend.

Avenger Knight: What are you doing out here? (Gets out his sword.)

Prickly Pete: Ah, you're the Avenger Knight. I was actually expecting the Skyrangers to come and fight with me.

Avenger Knight: I don't know what you are doing in this desert, but I'll put a stop to it.

Prickly Pete: No you won't, I've been looking for someone or something to try my cactus needles out onto. (Throws some needles at the Avenger Knight.)

But the needles just bounced off the Avenger Knight's armor.

Avenger Knight: My armor is too strong for any needles to harm me. As long as I'm in this suit, you can't harm me.

Prickly Pete: Then maybe, you'd be better without the armor.

(Prickly Pete goes over to try and take the armor of the Avenger Knight, but he attacks back with the sword.)

Prickly Pete: ERGH! Would you just stand still?!

Avenger Knight: No way! I shall keep this armor on until my quest is complete!

Prickly Pete: Well, if you won't allow me to destroy the armor, I'll just have to make you somehow.

Just then, the six Skyrangers came in to help out.

Jeff: Avenger Knight, are you alright?

Avenger Knight: I'm completely fine, but this monster is insisting on me taking off my armor so he can finish me off.

Reggie: Don't worry, we've got your back.

Prickly Pete: Ah, the Skyrangers will be easier targets to get.

Jeff: Everyone, let's transform!

All: Sky Change! (Transforms)

(The Skyrangers begin to fight Prickly Pete and the Avenger Knight helps out as well. Prickly Pete threw his cactus needles at the Skyrangers and they got hit.)

All: OW!

Avenger Knight: Skyrangers! Are you alright?

Dina: These needles. They're so painful.

Tiffany: This is one painful monster to deal with. And I mean literally.

Marcus: At least you've got all that armor, Avenger Knight.

Avenger Knight: But I can't defeat him on my own!

Prickly Pete: Well, I see I finally found something that isn't immune to my needles. I think I've head enough in this pathetic desert. I'm going to find a city to destroy! (Runs off.)

(Time passes to the Avenger Knight helping to get all the needles off the Skyrangers, who are now demorphed. He is seen getting the last one off Austin.)

Avenger Knight: And there. Better now?

Austin: Yes. Thank you, Avenger Knight.

Jeff: What were you doing out in the desert anyway, Avenger Knight?

Avenger Knight: I saw Bananabeard's ship release another monster and I followed it here to the desert. How did you know to come here to the desert?

Marcus: Didn't we tell you? Dina's father alerts us about the monsters that come down here to the surface.

Tiffany: The Bird Guardians are able to alert him when something is happening. And I guess they alerted him about what was happening with you.

Jeff: As far as I know, he could be heading to the nearest city. How about we all use our Bird Guardians to go find the closest city to this desert.

Marcus: Won't that be a bit hard, Jeff?

Jeff: Not at all. We just need to fly into the air and find which city is the closest.

Dina: Good idea, Jeff.

Jeff: Bird Guardian!

(The Bird Guardians came down and the Skyrangers got on board.)

Avenger Knight: Avenging Hydra Dragon!

(The Hydra Dragon showed up and the Avenger Knight went on board it. They all flew into the sky to see if they could see anything.)

Jeff: See anything, guys?

Marcus: Hmmmmm....

Reggie: I think I see a city to my left.

Tiffany: I see one up ahead.

Dina: There's one behind me.

Austin: I see one on the right.

Jeff: Oh boy. Four cities? And only one has the monster.

Marcus: Maybe we should split up, guys. That should work out.

Jeff: Good thinking, Marcus. I'll go with Dina to the city she saw, Reggie, Tiffany, Austin, you go to the cities you saw. Marcus, go with Reggie, and Avenger Knight, go with Austin. You're on your own for the city you're going to, Tiffany.

Tiffany: That's alright.

So our heroes split up to the different cities. Meanwhile, in Bananabeard's ship.

Bananabeard: So, they're going into separate cities to find Prickly Pete, huh?

Wither Vain: I think those Skyrangers will need to be distracted for a while so they don't find him. Let's send down the Bankies to each city to distracted them.

Bananabeard: Good thinking, Wither Vain. Hehehe.

In each of the four cities, Bananabeard sent down some Bankies to attack each of the cities. The Skyrangers soon arrived in each city to fight them.

Jeff: Oh man. It looks like Bananabeard was ready for us.

Dina: Well, no matter. We'll fight the Bankies and that cactus monster. If he's even here.

Jeff: And if he's not here, at least the others have gone into the other cities so surely, they'll find him.

The Avenger Knight and Austin were searching through the city they had gone to, searching for Prickly Pete when some Bankies came to attack them.

Austin: Ah! Bankies!

Avenger Knight: No worries, we can handle them!

Austin: Sky Change! (Transforms and then starts to fight the Bankies.)

(The two heroes fought off all the Bankies, then Prickly Pete shows up.)

Prickly Pete: Ah, good to see only the two of you. The little kid and the knight who won't take off his armor.

Austin: ERRRGGGH!!! (He didn't like it when he was called little, enough when he was morphed and was taller than his average height.)

Prickly Pete: Aw, is the baby going to cry now?! Hehehehe!

But this had really pushed it, Austin got so enraged that he just went and attacked Prickly Pete very angerly with his weapons!

Prickly Pete: GAAAAAH!

Avenger Knight: Good going, Austin! Now let me try one. (Attacks Prickly Pete with his sword.)

Prickly Pete: GAAAAH!

Austin: (Breathing from his angry.)

Avenger Knight: Uh....Austin? Are you OK?

Austin: He....called....me....little.....he....called....me....a baby! I'M FREAKING TEN!

Avenger Knight: Woah! Calm down, Austin.

Then Bananabeard's ship came in.

Avenger Knight: Uh oh.

Bananabeard: That's right, it's time to make him grow!

(The storm cloud is released and Prickly Pete grows giant.)

Austin: Quick. Let's get to our robot companions!

(They headed off and soon the Orange Bird Guardian and the Avenging Hydra Dragon in warrior mode stepped up in front of Prickly Pete.)

Prickly Pete: (Throws his cactus needles at them.)

Austin: Woah!

Avenger Knight: Woah! Avenging Hydra Dragon, fire!

Avenging Hydra Dragon: (Blasts fire at Prickly Pete.)

Orange Bird Guardians: (Makes a flying attack on Prickly Pete.)

Prickly Pete: Hehehe. Thought that would be so easy? Your friends are too busy looking for me in those other cities, they can't come to help you out. Without your precious Sky Flyer King, you will never defeat me.

Austin: Yes we will........Somehow. If only we had a combination possible right now.

Orange Bird Guardian: But you do.

Avenger Knight: What?

Orange Bird Guardian: That's right, the Hydra Dragon Guardian, which the Avenger Knight calls the Avenging Hydra Dragon, has the capability to combine with the other Bird Guardians.

Austin: But only you are here right now.

Orange Bird Guardian: The Avenging Hydra Dragon and I can combine on our own. So let's do that.

Austin: Alright. Ready, Avenger Knight?

Avenger Knight: Ready!

Austin: Avenging Combine!

(The Orange Bird Guardian combined with the Avenging Hydra Dragon by forming wings on the back, giving the Avenging Hydra Dragon new weapons, and forming a new chest armor. Austin and the Avenger Knight were in a newly made cockpit.)

Austin: Alright. Now let's get to business.

Prickly Pete: You think that'll be enough to defeat me? (Blasts more needles at them.)

Austin: I don't think so. Orange Avenging Hydra Dragon, shield!

(The Orange Avenging Hydra Dragon shield itself from the needle.)

Prickly Pete: Huh?

Avenger Knight: Now to finish this.

(The Orange Avenging Hydra Dragon went into the air.)

Prickly Pete: Huh?

Avenger Knight and Austin: Orange Avenging Finisher!

(The Orange Avenging Hydra Dragon then started to flame with fire, even more than the average version of the Avenging Hydra Dragon. It hit Prickly Pete, who then caught on fire.)

Prickly Pete: GAAAAH! I'm burning! I'm burning! I'm dying! I'm dying! (Falls to the ground and blows up.)

Austin: Alright! We did it!

Later on, Austin and the Avenger Knight met back up with the others. (All the main six rangers were demorphed.)

Austin: Jeff, you wouldn't believe what we discovered.

Avenger Knight: The Orange Bird Guardian and the Avenging Hydra Dragon can combine together.

Austin: The Orange Bird Guardian told us this.

Jeff: Wow. That's so cool.

Dina: Shame we couldn't be there to help, though.

Avenger Knight: Well, something I've learned today is that Austin can get angry pretty easily.

Austin: Don't push it!

Avenger Knight: Woah. Sorry!

Jeff: You know, Avenger Knight, if you need a place to stay, Cloudnoia would be a safe place to go.

Dina: We did see the Avenging Hydra Dragon fly up really high like the Bird Guardians.

Avenger Knight: No thanks. I've been wondering the surface for years. I can handle myself.

Marcus: Hey, up in Cloudnoia, you don't have to hide your face. We won't tell anyone who you are.

Avenger Knight: No! I don't want anyone to know me for the mistake I made years ago. Once I've found who I am looking for, then maybe I'll explain the whole story about what happened.

Well, a new combination is born to the Skyrangers, but the Avenger Knight is still keeping secrets. One of these days, he'll need to tell the Skyrangers what his secret is.
