Disclaimer: Don't own Power Rangers.
Takes place at the end of the episode...um...well, I forget the name. Whatever. It's the newest one. But the ending was EPIC!!!! That could have been out of Terminator or something! Best Power Rangers ending with the 'Oh crap, we're all going to die!' theme. lol
OK, here we go!
~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~
Dillon glared at the Green Ranger, not making any movements. That only made Ziggy even more nervous. "Um... ok, I can see that you're mad but can't we just talk about this-" Dillon got out of the Fury and out of sight. Ziggy sighed in relief. "Way to close." He let out a cry of fear when the door opened and he was pulled out.
"Doctor K, what's going on? What just happened?" Scott asked through his morpher.
"A magnetic wave Rangers... Venjix has activated the hybrids," Dr. K said slowly. Summer's eyes widened.
"But then, that means that Dil-"
All conversation was cut off when a loud cry was heard. Seconds later, Ziggy landed in front of the red sports car. Flynn and the twins looked on in confusion. All five Rangers got out of their vehicles and went to Ziggy.
"Ziggy, what-"
Scott's question was cut off when Ziggy sat up and started pointing frantically behind them. But no one understood.
"Ziggy, what's wrong?" Flynn asked. Ziggy shook his head and continued pointing behind them like a mad man. For some reason, he was at a loss for words. Gem spoke up.
"Guys, I think he's trying-"
"-to tell us something."
"Yeah, no kidding," Scott retorted. Suddenly, Summer's eyes widened in realization.
"The hybrids were activated. Ziggy was riding with Dillon..." she said softly. Ziggy nodded rapidly. Scott's eyes widened.
"Watch out!" he shouted, as they all rolled away from their current position. Seconds later, a hunk of metal landed where they were seconds ago. They all looked to where Ziggy had been pointing. Sure enough, Dillon stood there, an evident scowl on his face. They all regrouped and stood in a line, facing the Black Ranger. His eyes glowed red once more before he ran, charging towards them. The Rangers eyes all widened, right before they went into a defensive mode.
Dillon punched Scott, only to have the Red Ranger block his attack. Scott went on the offensive and headed to knock Dillon off his feet, but hesitated. This was Dillon here. He couldn't just destroy him. Dillon took the Red Ranger's pause to his advantage. He grabbed Scott's arm and twisted it backwards, causing Scott to cry out in pain. Dillon looked at him.
"All you want is for your dad to take notice of you. But you're just not good enough. Too bad you can't be more like your brother," Dillon sneered before tossing him a few yards away. He turned, just in time to see Gem and Gemma running to him. He blocked their attacks with ease. Finally, he got tired of fighting the twins. He grabbed Gemma's leg when she sent a roundhouse kick. She pulled at her leg, trying to get him to release her.
"Hey! Let go off my sister!" Gem shouted. Gem came to the other side of Dillon, sending a series of punches at him. Dillon blocked them all with the hand that wasn't holding the Silver Ranger captive. Then, in a split second that Gem left himself defenseless, Dillon punched him in the chest. Gem flew back a good forty feet.
"Gem!" Gemma cried out. Dillon turned back to her, before spinning her caught leg around. In result, Gemma ended spinning with it as well, and had a harsh landing.
"The two of you are children! You're just a pathetic pair of Boom-Happy twins," he stated.
Flynn caught Dillon off guard and got in one good punch. Dillon's eyes narrowed. Flynn continued attacking. If you were watching this battle, you would say that Flynn's attacks looked sloppy compared to Dillon's defenses. Dillon leapt in the air, surprising the Blue Ranger. When Flynn turned to face the Black Ranger, he was surprised yet again with a right hook straight to the face. "You always wanted to be a hero," Dillon began. "Too bad that didn't work out."
Ziggy leapt on Dillon's back, seeming to be riding piggyback. He held his arms firmly on Dillon's neck. Dillon simply stood there, unimpressed with the Green Ranger's 'attempt' of attack. He finally flipped the Green Ranger over to the ground. Ziggy landed on his back at Dillon's feet. Dillon glared down at him. "Not the face! Not the face!" the Green Ranger cried out, shielding his face. When he finally looked up, the Black Ranger was still looking at him.
"You became a Ranger to protect the Green Morpher. But you're in way over your head. You'll never be a good Ranger," he taunted, before walking away from him. Dillon smirked. All the Rangers were down, all staring at him.
"Let's see... Red, Blue, Green, Silver and Gold. Who's missing?" he said.
"How about me?!?!" a voice shouted. Dillon was knocked to the ground by a kick. He looked up to see Summer, fully morphed except for her helmet. She had her Nitro Blaster in hand, just in case. He stood up and glared at her. Summer stood her ground. She cared for Dillon deeply; but right now this man before her wasn't Dillon. He was D44, a Venjix hybrid. Dillon took a few steps towards her. Summer lifted her Nitro Blaster, silently warning him to stay put. Dillon chuckled.
"You wouldn't hurt me," he said lowly, continuing to walk towards her. Summer took an ever-so-slight step back, the pain evident in her eyes. Pain in her heart. "You can't and won't hurt me, because you care for the human inside me." He kept walking until Summer's blaster was pressed against his chest. Summer let out a small breath. She held his gaze, uncertain what to do. She knew what Scott, Flynn, and Dr. K would say.
Fight. It doesn't matter if he ended up being destroyed. It wasn't Dillon anymore.
Ziggy, Gem, and Gemma would try apprehending him, then take him to Dr. K so she could do something.
Then there was herself. What she did right now would define what would end up happening to Dillon. If she fired, he could very well be destroyed. If she didn't, it could end up being the end of humanity. And her end as well.
Summer let out a cry as Dillon grabbed her wrist roughly, twisting it upwards. Summer dropped her Nitro Blaster to the ground. She let out another cry of pain when his grip tightened. She could feel her bones, almost ready to burst. She looked up at him. There was no emotion on his face. Everything about him that Summer loved... the warmth in his eyes, the caring in his smile... It was all gone. Summer almost felt like bursting in tears, like she almost had when Dr. K had stated that his virus was at 51%. It was too much to bear.
"Dillon," she managed. "Please-"
"Dillon is dead!" the Black Ranger snarled. Summer's eyes widened at his statement, the tears welling up. He brought his face closer to hers, so close that Summer could feel his breath on her skin. His eyes were dark and empty, and that in itself was scary. "I am D44... Venjix Hybrid Infiltrator." Summer gasped, partially because of how his grip was tightening and partially because the pure sound of that statement made her want to collapse.
Summer closed her eyes, certain that this was the end for her. But she felt her wrist being relieved. Her eyes shot open. Dillon had released her. Her eyes narrowed in confusion. He was walking to the Fury. The other six rangers stood next to Summer, staring after him. Dillon opened the door of the driver's side. He looked at them, grinning evilly.
"A little note, Ranger Red," Dillon sneered. "You're plans have been foiled. Oh, and uh...don't wait up for your dad."
"Dad?" Scott said softly. He narrowed his eyes. "What are you talking about!" he demanded. Dillon shut the door as he sat in his car. Firing the engine, he sped off in the opposite direction than from where they were going.
The Rangers stared after him, all feeling a sense of loss. They snapped out of their own trances when a sobbing Summer fell to her knees. Gemma knelt next to her. She hugged the Yellow Ranger, trying to reassure her. Scott placed a hand on her shoulder. He knew what Summer was going through. He had gone through a similar phase when Marcus had died. They could all barely make out what she was saying.
"It's not fair... it just isn't fair..."
Unbeknown to them all, a figure was watching them in the trees. She had been watching throughout the entire battle and the confrontation between Summer and Dillon. Tenaya's eyes narrowed. What was Dillon doing? The Rangers were his friends! Why would he fight them? And why didn't she feel the same urge to want to fight and destroy them? That's when it hit her. The device for activating the hybrids. When it activated everyone else's technology, it shut hers down. She was free.
But now she had to save her brother. And of that meant teaming up with the Rangers... she'd have to deal. He saved her. Now she owed him the favor.
She was pulled out of her thoughts when the Yellow Ranger stood up. The other Rangers looked at her in confusion and worry. Summer wiped at her eyes, wiping away all the tears. She walked away from the team and boarded Scott's car.
"Summer! What are you doing?" the Red Ranger shouted. Summer payed them no mind as she turned on the engine. She made a sharp U-turn and sped away. That's when it occurred to Ziggy what she had in mind. The antidote Dr. K had mentioned. It was the only chance they had to get Dillon back. Summer only had one destination in mind:
The Garage.

Yay! So tell me what you think! Since school is out, I'll try to finish before the actual show finishes. (But I get the feeling that I won't... oh well)
So please review and tell me your thoughts. Good? Bad? I won't know and can't make it better unless you tell me!
