Richie held a hand out to stop her.
"Look around Alisha. There's still people nearby, we can't morph in front of them, that's like superhero rule number one." he says quickly "We can handle these guys unmorphed okay"
"I agree with Richie, we can't morph" Melissa insists.
"Fucking fine I guess" Alisha storms off towards a group of Drainers.
Axel frowns before tapping Richie's shoulder.
"U-Uh...does she even know where the Spawners are?"
"Nope, probably not" he mutters in response "Hey, Ax, ask Crow for me? Mirror won't be much help at the moment, we don't have time to get the answer out of her"
"O-Okay" he raises his morpher to his mouth "C-Crow, can you please scan for the Spawners?"
"Of course Axel. Scanning...one moment please...located. There are two Spawners. One is south-west. The Neptune ranger is roughly 32 meters from its position. The other is northward about 100 meters."
Richie hums.
"Axel, go with Alisha and point her in the right direction" he turns to the Pink ranger "Mel, lets handle the one ahead of us"
"Okay, sure Richard!" She says happily.
Axel pulls at his top, looking over at Alisha, who was already violently beating up any Drainers she was getting close to. Not that it was exactly stopping them but regardless...
"..Axel...are you okay?" Richie questions.
"I...d-do I have to go with Alisha...she's...she's...she scares me"
Richie sighs, folding his arms.
"I know, I get it. But unfortunately...we don't have much of a choice, you're the one she'll argue with the least. Historically she's been the most patient with you."
Axel sighs and nods quietly.
"Alright..."
"Hey, if she says a word to you that you don't like. Tell me okay? I'll deal with her"
"O-Okay..."
Axel turns and runs off to Alisha. Richie turns his gaze on the Drainers blocking his way to the next spawner.
"Alright Melissa, here's the strat. These things...they hit hard and - unmorphed - we don't. So, dodge if you can. Focus on dodging"
"Got it!"
"Prioritize any civilians that are in immediate danger and when we're sure we're alone. It'll be time to morph"
"You...seem to know what you're doing"
Richie chuckles, smiling a little.
"Truthfully...I don't. Let's go!"
Melissa raises an eyebrow before charging off as Richie had said. The black ranger grabbed onto his dog tags, holding them tightly as he gritted his teeth. He didn't know what he was doing, not in the slightest. He was just...
He shook his head quickly, charging in himself.
Above them, Ascella stared down at the humans who had arrived to stop the Drainers. It intrigued her, she sensed nothing particularly special about them. Perhaps a faint indication that a couple of them might have some minor magical potential, but nothing impressive certainly.
So then, who were these humans to charge in so courageously?
Not even daring to take on their Ranger powers when engaging the Drainers.
