Although, gotta say, a lot of mysterious evil forces have a tendency to possess me!\u201d By then, the TARDIS made its arrival sound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cDid she win?\u201d asked Bandee. Sty checked the computer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201c\u2026That energy signature is moving towards us, so I\u2019d say no!\u201d she said. The TARDIS fully materialized and everyone rushed out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cDoctor?\u201d asked Jamie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cKing Dedede, raise all defenses!\u201d the Doctor panted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIs it anything to do with that energy thing Sty found?\u201d asked King Dedede.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThat \u2018energy thing\u2019,\u201d replied the Doctor, \u201cis a Transformer\u2019s Spark! Specifically, it\u2019s Starscream\u2019s Spark! He\u2019s rebuilt his body and-!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cStarscream?! The Decepticon Second-in-Command?!\u201d yelped King Dedede. He turned to Bandee. \u201cGet every single fighter ready! I ain\u2019t having no Decepticon flying around here! Especially not Starscream!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cYes, Sir!\u201d replied Bandee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cSire, it\u2019s worse than you know!\u201d interjected Meta Knight. \u201cHe\u2019s huge! And I mean huge for a Transformer!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cBig enough to need us?\u201d asked Jason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI\u2019m afraid we cannot defeat him at our size,\u201d replied Meta Knight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNo, but the Rangers DO have a weapon roughly Starscream\u2019s size!\u201d realized the Doctor. \u201cYou lot suit up and summon your Megazord!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cGot it!\u201d replied Jason. \u201cGuys, IT\u2019S MORPHIN\u2019 TIME!\u201d The Rangers then pulled out their buckles and inserted their coins, then thrust their buckles out in front of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cMASTODON!\u201d called Zack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cPTERODACTYL!\u201d announced Kimberly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cTRICERATOPS!\u201d shouted Billy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cSABER-TOOTHED TIGER!\u201d called Trini.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cTYRANNOSAURUS!\u201d finished Jason. Spandex suits and matching helmets then appeared on them, Zack in a black Mastodon-themed suit, Kimberly in a pink pterodactyl one, Billy in a blue triceratops suit, Trini in a yellow Smilodon suit, and Jason in a red Tyrannosaurus Rex suit. The Sailor Senshi blinked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201c\u2026I swear I saw those suits before,\u201d said Sailor Mars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cHang on, the Power Rangers are real?!\u201d asked Sailor Moon. \u201cBut they\u2019re ripoffs of our Super Sentai teams!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cRipoffs?!\u201d protested the Pink Ranger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNow now,\u201d called the Doctor, \u201cboth Super Sentai and Power Rangers exist. And right now, the place and time to argue about who is better is not here, not now! Not with a Megazord-sized Starscream on his-!\u201d There was a boom and the castle shook! \u201cCorrection, a Megazord-sized Starscream is already here!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Starscream cackled as he sent Waddle-Dees outside the castle running in a panic. \u201cOh, when organics are so small!\u201d he chortled. Just then, the earth shook again, making Starscream wobble. \u201cWhat the-?! That\u2019s not from my footsteps!\u201d He was right. It came from five robots that rose from beneath the earth. There was a red T-Rex that reminded Starscream of the Dinobot leader, a blue triceratops, a yellow Smilodon, a black mastodon, and a pink pterodactyl. He then briefly saw the Rangers leap up into their respective beasts. The triceratops and the Smilodon then folded their tails back and their feet, then joined at the T-Rex\u2019s legs, making tank treads, then the mastodon turned around and split its body in half so that massive guns linked up with the back of the T-rex while the head of the mastodon made armor that protected the linkages between the T-Rex, the triceratops, and the Smilodon. The pterodactyl then perched itself on the war machine\u2019s back, then it opened fire! Starscream rolled out of the way and laughed. \u201cYou know, when you combine, you\u2019re supposed to be a bigger robot!\u201d he cackled. \u201cNot a bigger vehicle!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cKeep talking and we\u2019ll show you!\u201d replied the Red Ranger from the loudspeaker. \u201cActivating Megazord Battle mode!\u201d The tank treads then pulled the machine up to become legs, the guns folded into themselves to become arms, the pterodactyl folded its wings and became chest armor, and the T-Rex head folded down to reveal a head that had a mouthplate and a pair of curved horns pointing upwards. The completed Megazord then struck a pose. \u201cPOWER SWORD!\u201d called the Red Ranger. A giant sword then fell from the sky and buried itself into the earth. The Megazord pulled the sword out and swung it, but Starscream leapt out of the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cHAH! A CLUMSY WEAPON FOR PRIMITIVES!\u201d cackled the oversized Decepticon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cHEY! SCREAMER!\u201d called King Dedede\u2019s voice. The Warp Star then flew straight at Starscream\u2019s face before turning sharply upwards. It was carrying Kirby, Meta Knight, Bandee, and King Dedede! The Warp Star flew all around Starscream like an annoying mosquito! Starscream decided that the best way to deal with a mosquito like the Warp Star and its passengers was to swat it! The Warp Star stayed out of reach. The Rangers then heard the TARDIS arriving. The Doctor, her companions both past and present, and the Sailor Senshi then piled in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cHEY!\u201d protested the Yellow Ranger. \u201cKinda cramped in here now!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cDoctor, what\u2019s going on?!\u201d asked the Red Ranger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cPower Rangers, you need to let the Sailor Senshi charge up the Megazord\u2019s sword!\u201d replied the Doctor. \u201cWith their power augmenting the power of the Morphin Grid, it should be enough to destroy Starscream\u2019s body!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cHow do you know?\u201d asked the Blue Ranger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI don\u2019t. I\u2019m hoping,\u201d replied the Doctor. She got to work as the Sailor Senshi charged their magic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cHey, Doctor!\u201d called Jamie. \u201cThat star of Kirby\u2019s is getting slower!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cDoctor, you tied the wrong wires together!\u201d Tysar yelped. \u201cYou must concentrate!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI AM concentrating!\u201d insisted the Doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cDoctor, we have to unleash our power now!\u201d warned Sailor Mercury. The Sailor Senshi WERE looking a little pained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cRight! NOW!\u201d called the Doctor. The Sailor Senshi channeled their powers into the sword.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAll right! Here we go!\u201d called the Red Ranger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cKirby, BACK AWAY!\u201d warned the Doctor over the loudspeaker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cPoyo?\u201d asked Kirby as he looked back. His eyes bugged out and he flew the Warp Star away from the sword!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThat\u2019s it! Run, you-!\u201d taunted Starscream. The sword then sliced through Starscream, the energies of the attack coursing through his body. He then faded to gunmetal gray and exploded! His Spark was flung beyond Popstar\u2019s atmosphere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cYES!\u201d cheered the Doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe did it!\u201d called the Red Ranger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThat\u2026was\u2026AWESOME!\u201d cheered Sailor Moon. \u201cGirls, maybe we should get Luna and Artemis to get us a robot!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cUsagi, you can\u2019t be serious!\u201d protested Sailor Mars. \u201cWe don\u2019t need a giant robot!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cBut what if Godzilla attacks us?!\u201d argued Sailor Moon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cGodzilla\u2019s a piece of fiction,\u201d replied Sailor Mars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201c\u2026Um, actually-,\u201d interjected the Doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe met the big guy before,\u201d said the Black Ranger. \u201cRita Repulsa\u2019s doing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWHAT?!\u201d yelped Sailor Mars. \u201cBut someone would have noticed! I\u2019d have heard about it!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201c\u2026Did you learn about the Zygon Gambit with the Loch Ness Monster?\u201d asked the Doctor. \u201cOr the Yetis in the London Underground? Or all the Kamen Riders running around? Or the Ultramen? Or about the Dalek Civil War in Shoreditch, London?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201c\u2026What?\u201d asked Sailor Moon. The Doctor rolled her eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cYour species has the most amazing capacity for self-deception matched only for its ingenuity when trying to destroy itself!\u201d she muttered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Rangers and Sailor Senshi powered down after the fight and everyone returned to Castle Dedede for a huge feast. Usagi felt right at home, sitting next to King Dedede and Kirby and eating as much as they did. Rei just rolled her eyes. \u201cYou know, the future Queen of Earth over there,\u201d she said to Kimberly, \u201cis gonna need a big dress size.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cHopefully she\u2019ll rule with grace still,\u201d remarked Kimberly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAh, let the lass eat!\u201d protested Jamie. \u201cWe all earned it!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cKing Dedede, your chefs should be proud!\u201d praised Zoe. \u201cThis is delicious!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cYou should take some home with you!\u201d offered King Dedede. \u201cEven a big guy like me can\u2019t eat it all!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThat is a remarkable turnaround from your first meeting with Kirby,\u201d said Meta Knight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cLet\u2019s say I learned how to be a proper king over the years,\u201d replied King Dedede.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After the feast, King Dedede had the leftover food packaged up and distributed among his friends. The Doctor then took her companions back to the TARDIS. \u201cFarewell, King Dedede!\u201d she called. \u201cYour rule will be a long one and a prosperous one!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cYou sure you should be telling me my future like that?\u201d asked King Dedede.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cTrust me, I\u2019m securing history by telling you,\u201d replied the Doctor. She then shut the TARDIS door as Kirby called out \u201cPOYO!\u201d in a happy farewell. Jason and his friends were in disbelief at the size of the TARDIS interior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt really IS bigger on the inside!\u201d said Trini.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAlways has been,\u201d replied the Doctor. \u201cAha! Angel Grove! All set!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAll right!\u201d cheered Jason. \u201cCan\u2019t wait to tell Zordon and Alpha about all this!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cGive them my regards, will you?\u201d asked the Doctor. She then set the switch and the Power Rangers and the food they took vanished. \u201cNow, you girls!\u201d she said to the Sailor Senshi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cHey, Doctor,\u201d interjected Minako, \u201cdo you know Setsuna personally?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOh yes,\u201d replied the Doctor. \u201cIn fact, she was one of the Grouping Victims. Tysar can confirm that one.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cUgh, we had to tour my people\u2019s ancestral home world of Skaro,\u201d grumbled Tysar. \u201cAll while dealing with a Krynoid!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThere we are!\u201d called the Doctor once she finished. She then flicked the switch. \u201cGood luck!\u201d she called. The Sailor Senshi waved as they and the food they took vanished.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI guess it\u2019s us next,\u201d remarked Jamie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cSo it is,\u201d replied the Doctor. \u201cBut this time, no memory erasure.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cGood, because I don\u2019t think I can forgive the Time Lords for that,\u201d said Zoe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI still haven\u2019t,\u201d said the Doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cHey, Doctor\u2026\u201d said Jamie, \u201cdo you\u2026well\u2026do you ever check on your friends?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cConstantly,\u201d answered the Doctor. \u201cYes, even you two. Nineteen grandchildren? Your five daughters really made the family big!\u201d Jamie beamed with pride.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAye, and a joy they all are!\u201d he said. \u201cCome visit when you can! I\u2019d be more than proud!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWill do, Jamie McCrimmon! Live your life and live it well!\u201d Jamie waved goodbye as he and his share of the food vanished. \u201cAnd Zoe, did you really name your son after-?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI did!\u201d confirmed Zoe. \u201cIt\u2019s funny, I didn\u2019t know it at the time, but all those adventures we had were at the back of my mind throughout my life!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNo method of mind-wiping is perfect, Zoe. And our friendship is proof of that. Good luck in your third term, Madame President! You\u2019re the perfect leader for Earth!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cDo come visit!\u201d replied Zoe as she and her last share of food vanished. The Doctor smiled as she recalled all the adventures she had during her second incarnation. She then frowned as she recalled Omega.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cCome along, you two,\u201d she said to Tysar and Sty. \u201cThat whole adventure gave him the time he needed to cause another mess!\u201d She set the TARDIS in motion!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the depths of space, Starscream\u2019s Spark floated helplessly. \u201cI\u2019LL BE BACK!\u201d he promised. \u201cEVEN IF IT TAKES A THOUSAND YEARS, I WILL BE REVENGED ON YOU ALL!!!\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cYou stole all the food in your kingdom?\u201d Trini asked King Dedede. \u201cYeah, not gonna lie, I was a feather-brained jerk back then,\u201d answered King Dedede. \u201cWhen you hang out with Kirby long enough, you learn a better way to do things.
