Sonic the Hedgehog and the Space Ace Transformers - Episode IV by Space Ace Part 5 Once back inside the facility laboratory under siege by the New World Order at the moment the alien commander watched as Belladonna used her dark magic to remove the information from the mind of Hope Kintobor who was placed under a helpless mind control spell, unable to resist the witch's powers. BORF: Foolish child, did you think you could hide the formula from me? BELLADONNA: Formula extracted, lord Borf. HOPE: Huh, what?! What's going on here, what do you want with me? BELLADONNA: Now-now, no need to get violent here. All we did was get the information we seek, the anti-matter formula that is, hm-hm-hm... HOPE: No! BORF: Sorry, it's too late now to do anything about it, he-he-he... The young lady could not believe what she heard, the nWo already possessed the formula? HOPE: But you can't use the research for destruction, it-it's wrong! EGGMAN: Is that so, huh? Thanks for the warning, ma'am. BORF: Dispose of her, but take heed not to resort to deadly force. Meanwhile the time has come to create anti-matter. EGGMAN: And the beginning of the end of the Alliance, ha-ha-ha-ha! At that same time the Power Ranger Autobots learned of the kidnapping when a frantic call from Commander Tower was picked up by both Rouge and Shadow as well as myself and the Rangers with Sonic and gang inside Freedom Headquarters. ROUGE: Oh, no! Hope's been taken hostage by the nWo. Who knows what they plan on doing to her. SHADOW: I must save her, she reminds me of my former mistress Maria Robotnik! ACE: And we will, don't worry. First of all we have to find where this base is located. CHRIS: Yeah, do you know where it is? SHADOW: Affirmative, young man. We can show you the way to get there. CODY: Good idea, once we arrive we'll let you take part in the rescue mission. ROUGE: Thanks, sir. I'm good at that, saving innocent lives. SONIC: Awesome! Let's roll. ACE: You got it, hedgehog. It's morphing time! I raised my morphing device into the air as did the members of my gang and we shouted forth our disguises. CODY: Green Power Ranger! GOKU: Silver Power Ranger! NARUTO: Gold Power Ranger! ASH: Bronze Power Ranger! KIMBERLY: Blue Power Ranger! CHRIS: Yellow Power Ranger! RON: Black Power Ranger! KIM: Red Power Ranger! JAMES: Purple Power Ranger! JESSE: Pink Power Ranger! ACE: White Power Ranger! Our rings shimmered with magic energy as our terran selves converged into costumed helmeted heroes seconds after that. Both Rouge and Shadow were shocked to witness this startling scene since they knew nothing of our magic abilities at first but recovered when Sally spoke. SALLY: Okay, Rangers. Let us proceed in rescuing Hope Kintobor from Borf and his horde. Shadow, Rouge, lead the way. SHADOW: By your command. ROUGE: Yes, ma'am! With that the black hedgehog zoomed off on his roller blade sneakers as Rouge flew into the air while we zoomed after them, also flying through the sky with the aid of our rings, Sally clinging tightly around my neck and shoulders while I supported her buttocks area in my strong arms-hands. Behind me came the rest of my team transporting Amy, Tails, Antoine, Rotor and Bunnie while Sonic raced alongside Shadow, keeping pace with him all the way. PINK RANGER: G.U.N. Headquarters dead ahead. AMY: Yeah, secret base where research is conducted under secrecy. PURPLE RANGER: Head's up, we got company! TAILS: Uh-oh, who's that? Standing atop the arched roof above the main doors were Drakken and Shego and held between them like a human shield was Hope looking frightened and scared. SHADOW: Hope! SONIC: Oh, no. Dr Drakken and Shego, they have her hostage! SHEGO: You dare try anything stupid, your friend is doomed! DRAKKEN: And even if they don't, you're doomed...he-he-he! HOPE: Help! Before the startled eyes of the friends, the two nWo warriors vanished, chuckling and laughing menacingly with their hostage from sight. WHITE RANGER: Rangers, regroup. SALLY: Aye, here's our plan, huddle-time everyone. As a group we huddled together with Sally and White Ranger setting up the game play similar to a quarterback outlining the play sent in by the coach on the sideline to his teammates in football. Once I said the usual "On 3, break!" we all clapped hands and broke the huddle but instead of lining up on the line of scrimmage so to speak Sally and I did the following. SALLY: Where's Team Rocket? PINK RANGER: Getting ready, as always. PURPLE RANGER: And me as usual. WHITE RANGER: Fine, we'll also have Rouge and Shadow accompany you into the complex since they know the way around. ROUGE: Yes sir, to find and rescue our friend. SHADOW: To save my friend, Hope from danger. SALLY: Now let's begin Operation Anti-Matter and be careful. Jesse and James in their ranger uniforms nodded then both disappeared from view and made their way invisibly towards the main entrance leading into the base. Shadow and Rouge lead the way ahead of the terran heroes, where guarding the main entrance were Tai Lung and Tigress standing atop the arched roof. At first the kung fu masters could not see what was approaching. TAI: Hey, do I see something coming up? TIGRESS: Gee, I don't see anything approaching. PINK RANGER: Good question, butt-head! TAI: Who said that, who called me a butt-head?! As the snow leopard warrior wheeled to confront the unseen intruder who spoke that taunting remark, as he looked away, he failed to catch sight of Rouge sailing in from the opposite direction to touchdown in front of the main doors. Seconds after that as Tigress also scanned for signs of unseen attackers, the forces of Shadow and the invisible Purple Ranger made their move and reached the closed doors soon after that, the invisible Pink Ranger showing up minutes later. Using his password to gain access, Shadow had the doors open and immediately they rushed inside. TIGRESS: There's no one here, we must've thought we heard voices speaking but could see nothing. TAI: Maybe it's our minds playing tricks on our eyes, duh? PURPLE RANGER: Now that's the smartest thing you've said all day, suckers! TAI: Oh, really? TIGRESS: Hey, what's going on here?! While the two tried again searching for the unseen voices, Team Rocket was inside the facility with Rouge and Shadow, the two leading the former bullies down the corridors in search of their Overlander human friend, Hope Kintobor, if they were not too late to save her in time.
