Chapter 2 - First Fight

The fight against the Foot Soldiers wasn't very complicated, they weren't known for their intelligence or even their ability to fight. Ace had no combat experience, but with his 'Spear,' he had the advantage of distance, and the increased strength that the armor provided was enough to help in the beginning. "Get out of the way!" He held the handle of his weapon firmly, positioning his feet firmly and stretching forward, the attack of his shovel was horizontal, cutting and hitting all his enemies in front.

Running towards the last Foot Soldier, he went with the tip of the shovel against his enemy's throat, lifting his body and crushing him against the ground. "Looks like you're the only one left. Did you decide to just watch your soldiers get defeated one by one? If I were them, I would quit." He had an arrogant smile on his face, trying to provoke his opponent to take the initiative. "What's wrong? Rita doesn't pay you well?" That was the final ember to irritate his opponent.

"How dare you talk about her like that!? I am Buffaloid, the most powerful in the army, and you will serve as an example to the Power Rangers!" He advanced angrily, placing his horns in front of him. He ran at full speed, keeping his head in front. Jumping to the side, Ace got out of the path of the attack and soon lowered himself, sweeping the legs of the monstrous bull, making him fall to the ground and being dragged across the concrete.

"I should start selling shovels, the results would be groundbreaking!" He laughed at his own joke, which further infuriated the bull, who quickly got up. Keeping his body steady, he gave a powerful stomp on the ground, causing the ground to change.

Feeling the strange vibrations of the ground, Ace used the thrusters of his boots to dash to the left, stone spikes coming out of the ground right where he would be. "Yikes, one slip and I'll turn into a meat skewer!" His left arm began to change shape, transforming into a type of buster cannon.

Due to lack of materials and his own knowledge, he was unable to create the basic cannons from the Mega Man universe, but he managed to create a pressurized wind cannon, which when fired at the Bull's chest, made him stumble backwards, feeling great pain in his chest.

"Arrgh, you idiot stupid clown! You're not going to escape me that easily!" He prepared to run again, but another shot was fired, this time at the bull's leg, making him fall and kneel. "Let's end this!" Ace used the thrusters on his boot to advance, keeping the shovel ready to attack. When he got close to the bull, he made a final cut against its chest, reaching the other side of the street.

"C-curse you!" He spoke his last words, beginning to fall to the ground. The explosion came soon after, putting an end to this fight. In the distance, Ace could see the five rangers arriving.

"Aah, Alpha, what's the situation? ..." Kimberly, better known as the Pink Ranger, questioned the situation, especially when she learned that it was a double attack. "Besides... you said there are no other Power Rangers here, but who is this?" Not even Alpha knew how to answer Kimberly's second question, but the first would be easily answered.

"The fight is coming to an end, this new warrior has demonstrated strength and agility in combat even though he is inexperienced." The rest of the Rangers approached the battle as they heard Alpha's voice, but when they arrived, they only saw the body of that monster starting to fall to the ground, resulting in an explosion. "Heh, I see the bull rodeo has come to an ending." Zack, as always, made fun of the situation, especially that that knight had long horns on his helmet.

"Aaaagh! First those pests of the Power Rangers, now this? It's getting more and more infuriating! Whatever, destroy the Power Rangers now!" Rita screamed in frustration, throwing her staff at the ground, which, when it fell, made energy circulate across the ground, and that bull began to grow giant.

'Oh shit! I knew I should have made a giant robot!' Screaming mentally, he just had an idea after that, dashing towards the Power Rangers. "I'll let them take over from here, bye!" And soon he was escaping the combat scene, leaving the problems to the Rangers; Jason stretched out his arm to try to grab Ace. "Wait!" But it was in vain, he escaped right away, fleeing the scene.

[WonderWho?: Hehe, that fight was fun! Plus, it seems much better choreographed than all the others! Whatever alternate version this is, if it keeps up like this, I'll buy all the figures of this guy!]

[DishWasher2000: But he escaped so fast! We didn't get a chance to see his Zord, seeing as it looks like a bull, maybe it is one.]

Watching the comments and the rest of the Rangers' fight against the bull monster ButterPufferFish just kept me wondering the same thing, doing a little research on the Internet but not finding any information about these strange episodes of Mighty Morphin. "This whole situation is absurd and strange, besides, we're on an official website! There should be something on the Internet talking about it, it doesn't even say anything about the actor or who does the voice." But knowing that it would be irrelevant to continue wasting his time, he just went back to watching.

[SpikeInTheButt: I did some research, and actually, apart from Reddit, where some people are going through the same thing right now, apparently a new tab for the series has appeared, at the moment, it only has these episodes.]

Looking at the episode playlist, this would be the last one released at the moment, and the description was somewhat generic. 'A warrior carrying a shovel mysteriously appears in Angel Grove, fighting one of Rita Repulsa's lackeys. Who could this new warrior be?'

———

Escaping to a safe place, and in his scan, he found no one nearby, just detransforming, and his shovel disappeared. Now in a calmer place, his legs began to shake and soon gave way, making him fall.

"I did it, haha... but how scary was all that..." In the middle of the fight, he seemed super brave, but after everything was over, the weight of his actions fell on him. What he did was dangerous, especially with a prototype not yet finished that could cause an accident.

"The materials I got from the junkyard weren't that bad, even if it wasn't ideal, I still managed to win in the end. Maybe I should give it a chance to get materials with the system now that I have a way to really defend myself." Getting up with difficulty, he stood from afar, watching the Rangers fight and defeat the bull that was now giant, returning to the store and seeing that nothing was stolen, he breathed a sigh of relief, just sitting on his bench.
