"Oh my!" Simoon gasped, hurrying over and pulling the child out of her food before beginning to clean the girl's face.
*London*
In all the hustle and burning ruins, six flashes of light were easily unnoticed, and behind one group of soldiers, busy with their tents, six figures approached. "Excuse me," one asked, "we're a bit lost. Could you point us toward the Eiffel Tower?"
"Huh?" the guard asked as he turned around, only to get a fist to the face from a red-jacketed young man. The other five teenagers also quickly engaged, and before even so much as an alarm could be raised, the soldiers were all knocked unconscious.
"Idiot," Jesse complained. "The Eiffel Tower's in France, dumbass."
David shrugged, unconcerned. "I said we were lost."

*Cave*
Violet wriggled, murmured and giggled when her face was cleaned, but otherwise didn't really do anything.
*London*
The sound of heavy, rapid clapping sounded out nearby, followed by a loud and high pitched "WHOOOOO YEAAAAAH!"
The source of the wild cheering became appearant as one soldier seemed to be left standing far out from the group. Or at least, it could be assumed that he was one of the soldiers. Unlike the others, however, his armour was a bright, blaze orange that would make a member of the fashion police want to kill himself. Also, various claws, fangs and skulls of wild animals, most likely "trophies", considering the man's impressive size, were hung all over the armour in decoration. Within a fraction of moments, the strange looking soldier had closed the space between himself and the rangers. More details could be made out now. Not only was this man's armour more flamboyant, it also seemed to be of a much more impressive and intimidating make. The only flesh part of the soldier that could be seen was the lower half of his face. If it was any indication of the rest of his face, the man was clearly a young adult, and was probably a decent enough looker, although the large amount of scarring would be concerning. A small amount of brown stubble was covering his face. A visor of some sort of reflective material covered the man's nose and up to the forehead, where it became part of an elaborate and ornate helmet, decorated with several scarlet and gold plumes of what must have been a very beautiful - and large - bird.
"The boss lady told me we'd probably be gettin' visitors!" The soldier announced right away, his voice was obnoxiously loud gung-ho and sounded harsh and gravelly. Not waiting for a second for a reply. "And then as soon as I get off the rad, I turn 'round and BAM-BOOM-POW, BABY!" The soldier gave a huge grin as he smashed his fists together. "I get to see a couple fellow crazies knockin' my boys 'round like flies, nice! D'you guys even see our broadcast? Naaaah, who'm I pullin', course ya did! And you came! Six kids against the entire Pandora Consortium! What for?" The soldier immediately shook his head again rapidly. "Naaaaaaah. You don't gotta answer! What's important is that you guys are NUTS! I like you! 'Course, now I gotta cut your lunacy short, no hard feelings, right?"
The soldier casually slid into some sort of lax, animal-like fighting stance. "Oh, by the way, I'm Maezir, Maverick General of the Pandora Consortium, an' I'm crazier than all y'all! You can intro yourselfs later, after you prove to me that you ain't a bunch o' wimps, a'ight?"

*Europe*
Jesse crossed his arms with a heavier-than-usual scowl. "This guy annoys me."
"Everyone annoys you, biggun'," Jason reminded him.
"Yeah, but this one's more than usual. He's so ... stupid!"
David had been scratching the side of his head in thought, but at that statement, his face lit up and he snapped his fingers. "That's it! That's who he reminds me of!"
"Who?"
"Crocigator!"

The "general" scowled. "Whassat? Stupid, am I? Nah, just crazy. Now are you gonna shut yer traps an' fight? I hate striking a victim that won't fight back."

"Wait," one of them asked, a girl with green hair, "so if all we do is keep talking, you won't attack us?"

"That ain't how it works, girlie." Maezir said angrily. "I said I wouldn't like it, not that I wouldn't do it."

The girl just shrugged. "Just a question," she answered innocently. "I mean, the way you had phrased it did leave it open for interpretation."

Maezir's right hand clenched up right away. In a sudden move that was almost too fast to see, the general swooped in, firing off a very fast and very hard uppercut across the girl's jaw. He moved with the motion of the swing and spun around, landing back exactly where he had started. "I'm serious. Fight, leave, or die." He said flatly.

The blow picked the girl up off her feet and landed her on her back, but she sat up easily and grinned at him. "Honey-boy, that was the lousiest punch I've ever seen. I didn't even feel it!"
The boy in the red jacket and the big guy in the black shirt stepped in between the two, however, as they all brought up their right arms. "Alright, enough laughs," the red one announced.
"Let's kick his head in," the black one agreed.
"Pink Dragon Wind Power!" the brunette girl shouted.
"Yellow Dragon Thunder Power!" was the green-haired girl's call.
"Blue Dragon Water Power!" the tall young man with the blue shirt followed.
"Black Dragon Earth Power!" was the announcement from the one so easily annoyed.
"Red Dragon Fire Power!" the one in the red jacket finished, and then behind them, the black man in white went.
"By the Power of Light! White Dragon Ice Power!"
In a flash of lightning that flared around them, each in their respective colors, they stood before him, now suited up and weapons ready, taking combat stances, outnumbering him six to one.
"Dragon Rangers, attack!" the red ranger ordered as they all came in at him.

Maezir merely grinned wryly. "That's what I've been waiting to see!" He said quickly. As soon as the rangers were almost upon him, he jumped. The general sailed up into the air, landing on the black ranger's head just long enough to push off and leap into the air again, landing behind the rangers and letting loose a shockwave as he did. The wave would do no direct damage, but the force of it would certainly weaken the ranger's footing.

The rangers staggered a bit, but quickly regained their footing, Jesse a bit slower than the others due to being used for a springboard. He pushed himself to the front. "Get out of the way, this joker's mine!" He raised the Earth Hammer up. "You wanna shake things up? This is how it's done! Earthquake Smash!" The supernaturally powerful blow sent not just a shockwave shooting toward the general, but jutting stone, sharp as any blade, as well, and behind that, a fissure.

The orange general was off the ground once again as soon as he saw the hammer going down. Unlike before, the man was going straight up and spiralling. Dirt and dust that was sent flying from the two shockwaves swirled around Maezir like a tornado. The stone missiles were sent spiralling off course from the whirlwind, shooting away from the fighter inside. Suddenly, the dust devil whisped away, leaving Maezir alone in the air and looking down. As he started to fall, he merely gave a cheerful grin and a fake salute to the rangers before spreading his arms out, catching the edges of the crevice. With this, he used his hands to spring at the rangers, reaching out to grab the black one by the face and flip him into the same crevice he created.

But as the general entered free-fall, the black ranger rushed in and, with a cry, swung his sledgehammer upwards, intending to strike the falling man with an uppercut from the draconic weapon.

"Oh balls..." Maezir went wide eyed at the sight of a hammer coming up to meet him. The general sailed back up into the air from the strike, but overall he looked like he was suffering about as much as Nala did when he punched her. However, the golf swing seemed to have put a definite kink in Maezir's plan, and when he hit the ground, he fell down and rolled through the dirt a bit instead of getting up right away.

Jesse brought the hammer back to rest on his shoulder. "And that's for using me like your fucking springboard, you gay ass motherfucker!"
The others cringed away from the vulgar, violent language, and the red one elbowed the blue one. "And here, I always thought we were supposed to be TV-Y7 ..."
