MMPR The Mutiny

Rita and her minions were looking down at the Earth, watching the Power Rangers. Before they could act, a storm suddenly brewed in the sky above Rita's palace. Rita and her minions ducked down and backed away from the intense dark energy.

"What's going on," Rita said, "Who dares-"

But before she could finish, three beings appeared on her balcony. Two men and one woman, dressed in leather clothes along with white gloves. The two men had silver masks on, and the woman had a golden mask on.

"Lord Zedd has returned," the man standing on the left said.

"He is furious with your constant failure and is taking command," the woman on the right said, "You are to report to him, immediately".

Goldar and Scorpina stood up. "How dare you give orders to us," Goldar growled, and the two charged at the trio. The man in the center, wearing a monocle, raised his hand and unleashed two blue balls of energy, blasting the two fighters. The two crashed onto the tables, breaking most of Finster's clay monsters. Rita and her other minions look back at the trio in fear.

"You dare think you could battle against Zedd's top generals," the man in the center said, "Gorum".

The female of the trio stepped forward, "Glamor".

The last of the trio stepped forward, "Bruto".

Gorum spoke,"Lord Zedd awaits in his chambers. He summons you Rita to answer for your failure. Be prepared to face the consequences".

The trio folded their arms and vanished.

Squatt asked, "Who's Zedd".

Baboo answered "Apparently he's Rita's boss".

"Uh, I have such a headache," Rita said.

"It's about time we have some real authority," Goldar said, "I'm going to his chambers to meet him".

Later

Goldar arrived in a different, rarely used area of the palace. The room was filled with fog covering the ground, and a circular platform in front of a slow spinning fan. The three commanders appeared in separate sides of the plate form.

"What are you doing here?" Goldar asked in a commanding tone. The three disregarded him, focusing on the area of the platform. Electricity began to form in the room, and lightning struck the platform. What was once empty space was now filled by a large metal chair with a 'Z' engraved on the back. The three commanders kneeled down of the man seated there. The chair began to turn slowly, revealing to Goldar a figure with brown-red skin, covered by some skeletal metal platings, holding a snake in his arms. He wore a metal skeletal mask with a red glass feature, which he sees through. Goldar kneeled in fear as the new leader stood up, turning the snake into a metal staff with a Z on the top.

"I am Lord Zedd," the new commander said, "Commander Glamor, who is this creature".

"My Lord Zedd," Goldar said, "It is I, Goldar."

"He's the groveling one," the female commander Glamor said in a mocking tone, "Come to beg for mercy".

"I am here to serve you," Goldar said, ignoring the remark.

"And what makes you think you are even worthy of serving," said Bruto, "You have served the witch Rita for over a year and still failed".

"I no longer serve her. I need a strong leader."

"Ah, my Lord Zedd," said Rita, appearing from another entrance of the room, "How nice it is to see you." She saw Goldar and kneeled next to him.

"Traitor"

"Failure" The two whispered to each other.

"Please," Rita said to Zedd, "I promise I won't fail again".

"Empty words," the commander, Gorum said, "At least try to maintain some dignity".

"I won't fail," she said desperately, "Right now I have a brilliant plan that will destroy the Power-"

"SILENCE," Zedd said furiously, the commanders backed away as Zedd's skin started glowing red, "You are unfit for commanding. I have allowed you the chance to take this little planet, but no more!"

"My Lord," Goldar said, "Please allow me to redeem myself. I'll send some Putties to deal with the rangers."

"Your Putties are just as useless as you," Gorum said. He snapped his fingers and a few figures entered into the room. They wore black tuxedos, resembling butlers, with white faces.

"The Platters will fight the rangers," said Bruto.

Zedd raised his staff and teleported the Platters to Earth.

Earth

After Bulk and Skull break their bikes, they discover the Power Ranger's bikes, deciding to steal them. However, before they could steal them, many Platters appear, with some carrying quarterstaffs. The two bullies spot these new foot soldiers and begin to panic as the Platters begin to surround them.

Command Center

The alarm goes off and the rangers rush to the viewing globe, seeing Bulk and Skull under attack.

"Zordon," Kimberly said, "Those don't look like the usual Putties".

"Indeed," Zordon answered, "They are Zedd's Platters. They are much strong than Rita's Putties."

"They must be after us," Zack said.

"It looks like Zedd is not wasting time," Billy said.

"Strong or not we need to help them," Trini said.

"Right," Jason said, "It's Morphin Time!"

The rangers transform and teleport to Bulk and Skull's location.

The Platters turn their attention away from Bulk and Skull to their initial targets.

The rangers fight the Platters, though unlike the Putties, these new creatures appear more organized in strategy. The Platters fought in teams, synchronizing their attacks to throw the rangers off balance. The rangers struggle to fight them, especially as Tommy's powers begin to weaken. Seeming desperate, the rangers summoned their weapons, forming the Power Blaster, destroying the Platters. The rangers retreat to the Command Center, exhausted from the fight.

Moon Palace

Zedd sat in his chair as Rita cleaned his shoes, while Goldar still kneeled before him. Bruto and Glamor entered the room.

"Lord Zedd," Bruto said, "We've searched the palace".

"We spotted Scorpina fleeing into space. It seems she would rather run than face her sentence," Glamor said, "We've locked up Finster in his workshop, his machine destroyed. He won't be making monsters anytime soon".

"The two numb skulls are still floating around here somewhere. We will find them," Bruto said.

"No matter," Zedd said, "They are no consequence. Now we just need to deal with these two."

Rita and Goldar backed away.

"Rita Repulsa, I take away your power," he said, zapping Rita's wand, causing it to vanish.

The three commanders used their power and summoned a smaller version of Rita's dumpster prison.

"I banish you and your minion to the farthest reaches of space out of my site," he commanded. Zedd raised his staff and zapped both Rita and Goldar. The two shouted as they shrunk down into six inches. Bruto and Glamor grabbed the two and placed them in the dumpster, sealing them inside. Glamor picked up the dumpster and gave it to one of the Platters who properly carried it to the balcony. While in motion, Rita and Goldar could be heard arguing with one another, blaming each other. Zedd raised his staff and teleported the dumpster into space.

"Now, find me a worthy monster," Zedd said to his commanders.

"Yes, sir," Bruto said, teleporting to Earth.

Bruto appears on a river area in South America. He looked into the river and raised his hand over it. Energy was released from his claw-gloved fingers and entered into one of the piranha. The animal suddenly turned into a monster, rising from the river, roaring.

"Pirantis Head," Bruto called out, the monster looking towards him, "I command you, go to Angel Grove and wreak havoc over the city. Lure the rangers out and show them your true power."

"Yes," it said. The two teleported into Angel Grove.


A/N:I added in the Gorma commanders as Zedd's generals because they needed to replace Goldar and Scorpina.

I figure I'd let the commanders do most of the talking and the insulting to Rita and Goldar so when Zedd does speak to them, you know he is to be taken seriously, instead of wasting his breath simply insulting them. I also replaced the Z-Putties with the Gorma foot-soldiers Cotpotros, now called Platters, because I thought Z-Putties were just simply Putty rip offs, only now with a "kill switch" on their chests. And I sealed away Goldar with Rita because, let's face it, after Zedd arrived, Goldar didn't fight as much and became less threatening and a total kiss-up to Zedd.
