(If you are every wondering what these monsters look like look up the name with this Kamen Rider Kiva (Monster of the Weeks Name) Its the exact same.)

As the next day had finally come, the Rangers had decided to meet in the Library. the school library was vast even with a second floor. Many books with different topics of fiction and nonfiction lined the walls. The receptionist seemingly not going to cause them any problems.

Or so they thought, Maya, sat at one of the tables. Surprisingly the table was round and each of them sat around it. The silence only was broken when Johnny decided to speak up.

"Ok so, first off. This table literally can't be a coincidence. We always for some reason find a roundtable to sit at, like were the knights of the round table now?" Johnny said a bit sarcastically.

"Of course we are. We are the Power Rangers now...right?" James said turning his head to Britney and Samantha. Britney had her finger over her lip as a few kids walked past them chatting it up.

It was pretty early right now so classes wouldn't be starting yet, some kids just came in to check out some of the books they need for this semester.

"We can't talk about that very plainly like that. We don't know if those things are hiding out in plains sight" Britney had added as she looked over her shoulder. Making sure no one was watching them.

"Not to worry, Mordred and his top Generals are the only ones able to morph there physical appearance to hide in plain view." The old receptionist man spoke to them. The Rangers looking at him with awe as to how he knew.

=MYSTIC KNIGHTS=

Maya looked at the old man, who mostly had his eyes closed. He looked pretty old as he slightly opened one of his eyes, it was revealed to be red in color as he had a small smile on his face. He has swept-back white hair, his eye closing back up. As they actually noticed he always had his eyes closed.

He looked tall, powerful wearing a long sleeve white shirt, with a black vest and black khakis with black shoes.

"Well come now rangers, follow me. We have little time before your first period classes." The man announced as he started walking to past his desk, and into his office.

The Rangers did follow, but all that was in here was a bookcase full of knick-knacks, his desk and two chairs against a wall next to the shelf. Now Maya and the others where still somewhat confused on what was even going on.

"Ugh, sir...who might you be again?" Samantha decided to be the first to question.

"Well if you haven't pieced it together yet, that's fine. I am Mr. Emrys. But as the late King Arthur knew me by the name of Merlin" Merlin replied turning to the rangers slightly with a grin on his face.

Merlin waved his hand in the air, chanting a small chant as his bookcase moved to the side, revealed a stairwell for the rangers and him to go down. Speaking out another chant a ball of light appeared next to him shining bright enough to light the entire stairwell.

Merlin taking the lead, the Rangers now somewhat understanding what was going on. "After you Maya," James said knowing that the others didn't want to go if their leader wasn't going.

She let out a small sigh, glaring at her team as she followed closely behind Merlin

=MYSTIC KNIGHTS=

As they finally made it to the main area, Against some of the walls were bookcases. Then in the middle of the room was a crystal ball on a stand not far from that was a kitchenette of sorts.

On the floor was a nice red carpeting, with ancient runes and symbols adorning the walls. With another staircase, but this one leading up to a balcony with several other rooms to not be seen as of now.

But as the walked further to see a couch and a few chairs, Merlin had disappeared. He had reappeared on the balcony. Sporting some different clothing now. Wearing a long dark blue robe with a nice pair of shoes or whatever those things were.

A nice blue hat and a pair of glasses now, his eyes fully open as he looked at the new rangers. He made his way down the staircase looking over the new protectors.

"Please, have a seat," Merlin said, motioning the five over to the couch to sit down.

Samantha, Maya, and Britney took the couch as James and Johnny being somewhat gentleman stood up, Merlin sitting in a tall and royal chair across from them.

"What I am about to tell you five will change your lives. After drawing the Excaliburs from their stones who have taken up the mantle of Mystic Knights." started Merlin. "Those creatures you faced were no ordinary creatures. They are the Fangire, servants of Mordred. The Dark Sorcerer that betrayed King Arthur and tried to take over Camelot and the entire world."

"Times were peaceful before Mordred did what he did, by taking in the blood of the King of the Fangire, Mordred became their King and attacked. His unquenchable thirst for power brought many villages to its knees. But before he could do more. King Arthur gather four other warriors. Tasking me with splitting his Excalibur into four other parts."

Maya nodded. "Well who doesn't know about Excalibur, it was King Arthurs mightiest weapon."

"Plus I've never heard of it being split into four other pieces, how did it end up here in 2018?" Johnny spoke up asking with a bit more curiosity.

"Well, after King Arthur and his team defeated them. Mordred cast a spell allowing himself and his army to be sent here into the future. But in a deep slumber as the power he used was too great to muster. King Arthur knew that he would awaken, so he tasked me with going into the future and finding five new warriors." Merlin continued.

"Wait, One thing is bugging me, why were we chosen?" asked Britney.

"As you know the Legend of the Sword in the Stone. I decided to place the Excaliburs in the very same way, only those worthy enough to pull them. Which were you five, You five are the new Mystic Knights or in this time you call yourselves the Power Rangers."

The teens looked at each other knowing all of this to be a bit too true to muster, but its happened before their eyes and there was no way around it.

=MYSTIC KNIGHTS=

"So what are the Fangire anyway?" asked Maya.

"They are vampires so to speak. They feed off the Life Energy of humans to survive. They must feed, so Mordred will send out a monster to take in Life Energy and bring it back to him to feed himself as he still is not ready to leave his castle." Merlin continued.

"But there is the Checkmate Four. If you ever come across them they are not to be taken lightly. If taken on alone. You might be destroyed..." Merlin continued with a deeper and series tone as he squinted his eyes looking at the Rangers.

That shocked all of them, Samantha almost shaking a bit after hearing that. "The Checkmate Four...?" She finally mustered the courage to ask.

"The Checkmate Four are the four most powerful members of the Fangire race, bearing a tattoo of the chess piece they are named after. Mordred being one of them. These four Fangires receive the titles of Rook Generals of the Fangire Army, Bishop the keeper of Fangire laws, Queen and King, the rules of Fangires. As you know Mordred is now their King"

"All this King and Queen business. This sounds like this may be a tough fight." Samantha said in a small hushed tone.

"You have the option of giving up the power. The Excaliburs can find another. But just know they wouldn't have chosen you five in the first place if they didn't believe in your strength." Merlin said looking at them with a much serious look to him.

"If I speak for all of use. I know we all accept this duty." Maya replied. Samantha losing her timid scared look as she now looked on with confidence.

"Good." As Merlin looked over to a nice Grandfather clock. "Classes will be starting soon. You all need to..."But before Merlin could finish a red light shined. Merlin stood up heading towards the crystal ball. He projected the image revealing a female octopus monster.

She was red in color with black accents. Her suckers being gold as they were all over her body in different places. "The Octopus Fangire" Merlin announced. "She's in town with a few of the imps. There is also one rule you must know...never morph in view of the public. Morph here. You have enough time before classes start, but if you're late just say you started working int he library." Merlin continued.

"Right" Maya replied as she stood up the others coming behind her as she smiled. "Ready guys!?" She called out.

"Ready!" The rest replied back as they got ready.

Maya and the others pulled out the key out of the slot. "Mystic Knights!" As they proceeded to plug the key in turning it as they called out "Unite!"

Maya stood in another area. Her Excalibur appeared in front of her as a fire from it started coming onto her like a shooting star.

She wore chain mail over her. As the transformation started at her feet. She now wore red boots with steel tips as the red boots reached up to her knees slightly.

Merlin chanted something as he waved his wand, as they shined there respective colors. As the Octopus Fangire was gathering humans around and Imps firing at those who tried to escape, the Rangers appeared behind them.

This monster had decided to attack the middle of town, it was a somewhat nice area as it was mostly the shopping area, with stores all around. A nice area to sit down and eat with a water fountain in the center. This was one of the many beautiful sites, and the Rangers needed to stop her from doing to much damage to it.

"Power of the Ancient, Red Mystic Knight!"

"Power of the Ancient, Blue Mystic Knight"

"Power of the Ancient, Green Mystic Knight!"

"Power of the Ancients, Black Mystic Knight!"

"Power of the Ancients, Pink Mystic Knight!"

The rangers possed, their Excaliburs raised at an attention motion s Maya took the lead of the next call. "Power Rangers Mystic Knights!" The Octopus Fangire really didn't like the sight of this as she growled a bit.

=Mystic Knights=

"So you are the ones that destroyed Horse." She called out as her army of Imps came out from behind her.

"You got that right, and we're going to be doing the same to you!" James called out as he was itching to get started. Maya looked at her team nodding. "Let's do it guys."

The rangers ran forward swords outward, as the Octopus Fangire and her army ran at them. James got ahead of Maya, roundhouse kicking an Imp out of her way as the Octopus Fangire, jumped at her.

Maya swung her blade, a few sparks flying off of the creature. She cried out, but before she could get up. Samantha was ready swinging her Excalibur upward at a diagonal angle, of the already down Fangire.

The imps fired from the cannons on their arms to get them off her, Samantha did a backflip, getting out of the way of the shots. Johnny was running with his sister at the cannon fire, swinging and guarding against some of the blasts.

"Gonna take a lot more to take us down." Johnny and Britney said in unison a bit. Chuckling together as they got back to work. Britney ducked down letting her brother swing his sword down one of the Imps bodies.

Another trying to come up at them, was to befall the same fate as the other, as it was Britney's turn to take it down. Bringing forth a horizontal slash she destroyed it with ease, taking her brother's hand to balance herself as she kicked another away.

James was actually behind it as he raised his sword up with two hands, the blade glowing in a bright blue color as he brought, the sword back down.

The Octopus Fangire had her hands full with Samantha and Maya's teamwork. When she tried to attack one the other was ready to block or attack. Maya bent down as Samantha rolled over her back, striking the Fangire on her chest again.

"Ah!" The Fangire cried out as more sparks flew off her. Maya vaulting over Samantha with a kick to the Fangire's chest. The Fangire was a bit ready grabbing Maya's leg as she threw her towards a table, making her crash into it.

"Oh man, that hurt a bit," Maya said stabbing her sword at the ground to help her self up, rubbing at her back a bit.

"Phoenix Dagger" Maya called out as she sheaths her sword, in her hand appeared a red dagger, it had a phoenix-like design to it as the blade looked like wings of the Phoenix, the guard being the body and the handle the Phoenix neck and head.

She ran at the Octopus Fangire, tried running at Maya, Samantha fired at the Octopus from behind. "Unicorn Arrow!" The bow and arrow with the design of a Unicorn.

"You little!" The Octopus Fangire called out but before she could do anything Britney and Johnny were at her. "Bull Axe! "Wolf Sabres!" The two struck her using a green bull-like ax and two wolf throwing daggers. Smaller then Maya's Dagger.

The Octopus Fangire flew into the air as the two had, struck her underhand. "Lion Shield." James used his shield to toss her closer towards Maya.

"Finish her off Maya.!" James called out. Maya jumped up as her dagger was engulfed in flames

"Phoenix Dagger," Maya called out bringing the dagger down throw the Octopus Fangire, Maya flipping out the way as the creature exploded.

"Fangire Exorcised" Maya said as the others looked at her. "Fangire Exorcised" James replied laughing. "You got to be kidding me."

=MYSTIC KNIGHTS=

Some of the Citizens were still looking from corners as they saw that the Power Rangers saved the day. The Power Rangers are back.

"Shut up. Blue Ranger. I came up with that on the spot" Maya replied back to him a bit angry. The clouds became dark as the winds began to blow.

"Rangers Get Back!" Merlin called out from their heads.

The Rangers jumped back, as a portal appeared in from of them. A goo like substance came out from inside as a Swallowtail like a creature appeared. It was green in color, its right arm having flowers here and there on it.

With a should pad looking like a cathedral window. It's chest looking the same with almost a skirt like an appearance, like hew as wearing a doctors coat. His head being disgusting insect-like face with birds as its horns. Its left arm should pad having a womans upper half on it gold in color. With a cover over its arm. But the Rangers could see a Bishop tattoo on his hand.

"Hello rangers." the monster said to them. In a calm and serious voice. Almost giving off the tone of a brainiac. "You have messed with the order, even breaking my races laws. I am Bishop, and as much as I would like to destroy you now. I must save that joy for my master."

He held out his left arm, absorbing on the life energy the Octopus Fangire had already collected.

"But before I go." He held out his right hand now, His hand glowed green as the parts of the fallen Fangire started to reform. Even growing in size."

"Round Two rangers!" She called out in her giant size, kicking over a building.

"Tata, for now, rangers" Bishop replied going back into his portal.

=MYSTIC KNIGHTS=

"Rangers. I wouldn't think the most of the Checkmate Four had already awaked. But it seems its time for the next level. Raise your Excaliburs and call for your Individual Zords."

The Rangers did as Merlin told them, raising their swords into the air. "PhoenixZord, LionZord, BullZord, WolfZord, UnicornZord arise!" The rangers called out together.

After calling out for their Zords, a Lion roar was heard. James looking towards the mountains. A Blue, Black and Gold Lion stood on the mountain with a Green with black accents Bull stood next to it. Bursting from the skies with fire around it was the Phoenix, and near the woods came a Wolf and Unicorn, being black. The Unicorn white and pink.

"Let's go," Maya told the others as they jumped at their Zords, appearing individually in their own cockpits.

"Combine!" Maya called out. They placed their Excaliburs in a slot next to them, as they pressed a button to combine the zords.

The BullZord ran forward first, the WolfZord and UnicornZord running next to it. The BullZord began running up a hill as the WolfZord and UnicornZord ran past the hill.

The two words, legs went inside of the bodies as the backs of their bodies lifted up as they became the feet of the Megazord. As the BullZord ran off the hill, its bottom half became the torso as the PhoenixZord flew in, its wings detaching and attaching to the back of the BullZord. The BullZord's head began to go inside its chest as the head appeared next.

The body of the PhoenixZord became chest armor, its head going down to cover the torso. The Lion ran in next jumping off the hill. Its body splitting open. Its back legs combing together to become one arm and fist, its front halv doing the same. Its head becoming a shoulder armor for the right arm. An open knight helmet came out when the body opened. The Megazord took the helmet placing it on top of its head.

A Broadsword version of Excalibur appeared sheath at its hip.

"Mystic Knight Megazord! The rangers called out together as they now all sat in a cockpit together. Maya in the center, with James to her right and Johnny to her left. With Britney and Samantha at the back looking to the right and left respectively.

"Just because you gave that big robot doesn't mean you're gonna beat me a second time!" Octopus roared out as she ran at the rangers.

"Of course it does," James said, moving a few levers, as the right fist struck the chest of the Fangire, she cried out as she fell back.

Johnny moved a bit as he kicked the Fangire on the ground. "Draw the Broadsword," Maya told the team. Samantha and Britney pushing a few buttons.

"Broadsword Excalibur," The team said together, the right hand grabbing the handle of the sword and drawing it. "Holy Slash!" the rangers said in unison as the blade glowed a golden shine, as they swung the sword down the middle of the beast, cutting her down in half with an explosion.

"We better get to class guys," Maya told the team as they all nodded. They were late but they would be able to make 2nd period at best. As the Megazord walked off, doing its best not to hit the buildings, two teenagers stood at the top of a building.

In the hand of the one standing. Was a large double-edged sword which has vibrant colors. The pommel is a gold cone-like shape with the addition of a triangle attached to the pommel, the triangle is missing the base and the middle of it because of the pommel and the handle is colored with a mix of red and purple.

The crossguard is a rectangular bar colored black, with gold symbols etched onto it a brown X-mark in the middle, and features a red semi-circle protrusion on both sides of the cross guard. The blade is black with a red edge, but a red aura sometimes shrouds it giving it a dark red color all around.

The blade itself is fairly long and near the tip, it curves upwards, then curves back in. The blade also sports three hollow holes in the form of a triangle and is located in the middle of the blade curving upwards.

At the bottom of the blade, there is a piece of metal, acting as a fuller, it has red lines on it that increase in height but it stays on the golden part and the fuller at the bottom is in the shape of a rectangle standing upwards, the difference is that the top left has a large amount taken of off it, which makes the left side shorter compared to the right.

Further along the blade is a golden design, which looks like a blade, with two black rectangles connected by a line and the tip of it goes out by a small degree and goes back into the tip of the blade, the tip part of the blade design is two black modified squares and a black diamond-like circle shape.

Next to him was what seemed to be his brother, who was sitting down, he held a black two-handed sword with a grip long enough that can be held with 3 hands with a skull in the pommel. Contains an axe-like guard and a second grip with a chain-like form connecting the guard with the blade, the blade itself being huge and long that ends with 3 points.

The two swords gave off a demonic aura, almost like the color of a Fangire, but the two seemed to be human.

"Gram and Balmung just you two wait. You'll be able to feed off Excalibur soon enough", the one holding Gram, the red sword spoke with a grin. As he transformed, and so did his brother, a gold and silver light shining as the two disappeared from the rooftop.
