Darkness Approaches (MagiRangers)

[Theodore Fitzgerald]

Theodore stared out the proverbial window as he contemplated on their current situation, it had been a while since he had been resurrected in order to fight against Infershia. He had gathered a lot of information about them since then and he had been amazed that they had thrived in the modern world, he was also concerned that they were starting to attack the real world and he feared what would happen if they were not stopped in time. Back in his days he, along with so many others, had risked their lives to put a stop to their plan though they had no idea that they were Infershians at the time; he was glad that the MagiRangers were her because at least he would be able to help the others in stopping Infershia from rising.

"Trouble sire?" Albert asked as his armour clanked loudly against the wooden floor.

"No just thinking," Theodore said, "we need to make our move soon."

"The other MagiRangers have not yet been chosen, only you and Miss Matsuoka have been called to battle," Albert said.

"Concerning, but I suppose we can't have a full house so early in the game," Theodore said as he continued to stare out the window in deep thought.

"No, we couldn't have that." Mentor sighed. He had been let out for a while. It was lovely. "Then we'd actually have something to do."

[Theodore Fitzgerald]

Theodore turned towards the voice, "Ah Mentor, a pleasure to see you here," he said, "well if we did something then we wouldn't have to worry about Infershia now would we? Pity that the British Occult Group is gone, or else I would have rallied them to fight back against Infershia."

[Mentor]

"Magic traditions rise and fall with the eras." Mentor sighed. "It can't be helped."

[Theodore Fitzgerald]

"Yes and it seems in this era of 'technology' and 'social media' it seems magic is nothing more than a fairy tale!" Theodore exclaimed, "Back in the Victorian era it was the height of social events though it was used as entertainment such as seances and all those fortune telling; but it was respected as well...nowadays no one seems to know about magic other than those fraudulent things they carry on about."

[Mentor]

"Your nostalgia amuses me." Mentor laughed.

[Theodore Fitzgerald]

"And what part exactly was amusing to you?" Theodore asked.

[Mentor]

"That would be telling." Mentor replied. "Needless to say, I'm sure the Magi from this era would disagree."

[Theodore Fitzgerald]

"I'm still waiting for more than just me and Miss Matsuoka to show up, if it had been back in my time you would've found no shortage of people who would have gladly taken the mantle," Theodore said, "but I suppose the past is the past..." as he looked out the window.

[Mentor]

"I'm sure more will come to our cause soon enough." Mentor shrugged. "Needless to say, I'm eager to teach."

[Theodore Fitzgerald]

"Oh? You have knowledge of magic?" Theodore asked, "Who taught you?"

[Mentor]

"I've been the caretaker of the House of M for a thousand years." Mentor replied indignantly. "Of course I have knowledge."

[Theodore Fitzgerald]

"Ah I see," Theodore said, "I don't suppose you have the knowledge on how to produce the Philosopher's Stone?"

[Mentor]

Mentor simply shook his head. "I'm afraid alchemy was never my forte."

[Theodore Fitzgerald]

"It was worth a shot," Theodore said, "I plan on using this time wisely though teaching is taking quite a bite out of it."
