Orion Returns is the thirteenth episode of Power Rangers Lost Galaxy. It continues the Magna Defender arc and concludes the Lights of Orion arc.

Synopsis[]

The Lights of Orion return and the Rangers, Destruxo and the Magna Defender are intent on getting them. When Destruxo captures the Lights, Trakeena sends the Impostra monster to disguise herself as Treacheron and gets the Lights. Magna Defender appears and blasts the Lights out of Destruxo's body; however, after a short battle with Magna Defender and even convincing him why his use for them would do more harm than good, the Rangers then posess the Lights' powers, morph into Power Up Mode and are able to destroy Destruxo. Seeing this, Magna Defender leaves, his 3000-year mission to avenge Scorpius for Zika's death a total failure.

Plot[]

Maya awakens after a premonitory dream and wakes up the other Rangers, they watch as the Lights of Orion return and wander through space and follow behind them.

However, the Rangers were not the only ones who noticed the Lights, Treacheron also detects them and immediately informs Scorpius that in turn orders Treacheron to capture the Lights promising that he will rule the universe at his side, this detail does not please Trakeena.

Both Scorpius and the Rangers follow the Lights through space, Treacheron orders an attack of Stingwingers who attempt to slow down the Rangers' pursuit, but soon they are struck and destroyed by lasers fired by the Jet Jammers. At the same time, the Lights of Orion return to Terra Venture.

Destruxo is sent to the colony to capture the Lights and in spite of the intervention of the Rangers in the attempt to prevent this, it reaches its objective and it imprisons the Lights of Orion in a jar.

Trakeena is displeased with the possibility that Treacheron will succeed in his mission and be rewarded with great powers by Scorpius, she sends Impostra to the colony that assumes the form of Treacheron to be able to deceive Destruxo making it seem that it is the true Treacheron.

Disguised as Treacheron, Impostra tricks Destruxo by suggesting that he test the powers of the Lights of Orion so that Scorpius can have a better knowledge of them before being delivered. She presents Destruxo with a snake necklace, promising much greater rewards from Scorpius.

The Power Rangers and Magna Defender are present when Destruxo absorbs the powers of the Lights of Orion into himself, which makes him extremely powerful; he can defeat all five Rangers with a single blow of energy emanating from his sword injuring them. The Power Rangers, however, do not have much time to recover from the damage suffered by the attack, because they are soon surprised by a group of Stingwingers who attack them by surprise.

Destruxo begins to experience even more of its new powers causing significant damage in the Terra Venture forest. The side effects of the attacks hurt not only the Rangers, but also the Stingwingers who fought against them.

Meanwhile, Trakeena tries to convince Scorpius that Treacheron has broken the agreement and has stolen the Lights of Orion for himself. At first Scorpius denies the accusations made by Trakeena but when he sees images of Destruxo using the Lights of Orion he agrees with his daughter and accuses Treacheron of treason. Trakeena orders promptly the imprison of Treacheron despite his truthful claims that he has no idea why Destruxo has disobeyed him.

The Power Rangers use their Quasar Launchers against Destruxo, but no matter how much energy they use, they cannot even damage the monster. Suddenly the beaded snake necklace presented by Impostra begins to release a black toxic substance that weakens Destruxo. Impostra appears on the battlefield revealing her true identity and mocking Destruxo for being deceived telling him she plans to use a new jar to retrieve the powers of the Lights of Orion for herself. Before she did, Magna Defender destroys her jar and shoots her. She disappears promising to return.

Magna Defender manages to remove the Lights of Orion from Destruxo and they are free again in the air. He tries to summon the power of the Lights for himself, promising to use them as a means to get his revenge against Scorpius for Zika's murder. The Rangers refuse to allow him to get the Lights knowing the extreme measures he's willing to go to for his revenge. The Rangers decide to destroy the lights with their Quasar Launchers since it is a better alternative than having Magna Defender get a hold of them. However, to their surprise and the Magna Defender's anger, the Lights approach the Rangers choosing them to receive their powers. The Rangers are delighted and honored to be trusted with such a gift, Leo realizing the Lights of Orion were created to be wielded by the forces of good. The Lights of Orion blast the Magna Defender back and then grants the Rangers new armor and enhances the Quasar Sabers, leaving them more powerful than ever. As a furious Magna Defender watches, Destruxo recovers and demands the Lights back, making a last desperate charge at the Rangers. They are unconcerned, and use Power-Up Mode to turn themselves into a combined fireball which easily destroys Destruxo. Magna Defender condemns himself for failing to get the Lights, knowing they are now lost to him forever.

On the Scorpion Stinger, Treacheron is arrested and promises revenge against the cause of his misfortune, without realizing that Trakeena is watching him in delight.
