She slams the totem end of her staff into the ground, cracks forming and green energy shooting upwards towards the rangers. Richie gasps.
"Move!!"
Everyone jumps out of the way, barely avoiding the attack.
"...Fast reaction, but not fast enough" she taps her staff on the ground "Bind"
The magic from the crack swirls around them, starting to grip the rangers in an unbreakable bind. Richie turns his staff on its side, hooking the energy in the staff and pushing down to vault out of the way.
He hits the ground hard, but free from Ascella's magic.
"Damn...Dispel Saturn Gaia Staff!" he turns to the others, all trapped "I'm coming! Summon Encode Styler!"
In a flash of purple the sword formed in his hands and he charged forward, slashing at the glowing chains that tied the team. Sparks were the only result, he grits his teeth behind his helmet and he turns his focus to Ascella.
"Let them go now!"
Ascella twirls her staff again.
"Only if you can beat me Black Ranger"
Richie charges forward, swinging his sword towards her. She ducks and dodges, barely even affected. She blasts him back, sending his sword flying far enough away that it dispels on its own. The black ranger groans, getting back to his feet.
Alright, separate the staff then pin her with my staff...
He races forward without summoning a weapon, jumping right to avoid the blast of her staff and grabbing it as it was outstretched. He holds out his free hand.
"Summon Saturn Gaia Staff!"
The staff summoning causes it to hit her square in the face, she lets go of her own staff and stumbles back.
"Such a cheap trick!" She shouts "Do you have no honour warrior?!"
Richie glances at her then down at her staff.
"Yeah, no I'm not a warrior"
"Well, regardless!" She holds her hand out and the staff rips itself free from his grasp and right back into her hands "I'm certain your weapon cannot do that"
Richie frowned behind his helmet.
"Mirror, quick. Likelihood of me beating her alone? High or low? Or like....impossible?"
"...Low...impossible." Mirror echoes back.
"Ugh, figured. Solutions? Any ideas?"
Silence for a moment then -
"So-olution...MMM–Marrrs- Mars RRR-Ranger R-Requireeed"
"...Mars...? So, we need a red ranger?" he asks "Yes or no?"
"No"
Richie felt extremely confused until it hit him.
"We don't need just any red ranger, we need...the red ranger. I'm right aren't I? We need Ross"
"W–Wwwe...N—Need..Ross"
Richie looked to the others.
"Guys, I've got a solution. I'll be right back!"
"Fucking don't you dare go anywhere!" Alisha shouted angrily, struggling against the binds.
"Mirror, can I have access to my elemental power?"
"If you leave Saturn, they'll be destroyed" Ascella cuts in.
"DDD-Daaanngerous"
"I know, I need it for one moment, you can lock it again after if you want. Just please..."
