(Thanks for the hits and reviews guys; I'm new to this fandom so it means a lot to me :))
Disclaimer: If I owned power rangers, it would have never ended.

The Domed city of Corinth, Dr. K's lab
"Hey Doc!" Ziggy greeted, entering the lab happily, with a half-eaten apple in one hand and a tin of marshmallow in the other. "I've got something for you. Guess what it is."
"Busy!" Dr. K replied briefly, in an annoyed tone, her gaze fixed on the computer screen in front of her while her petite fingers continued to type at the speed of 100 characters per two second.
"You're no fun." Ziggy frowned.
"Fun is an abstract concept." Dr. K snapped. "It has no relevance to my current process of analysis."
Ziggy frowned again, feeling the urgent need to get a dictionary. But then, he got curious as to what Dr. K was doing. He stepped in closer to the computer, leaning behind the chair. "What's going on?" he enquired.
"You wouldn't be able to comprehend." Dr. K replied, eyeing him for a second with mock disgust.
"How do you know that if you don't try?" Ziggy asked in an indignant tone. "You know, I can help you. Like how I taught you to cook, or how I-"
He was quickly cut off by Dr. K. "Ranger Operator Series Green, what would you say if I told you there was a electro-magnetic wave in 30 degrees 45 minutes latitude and 88 degrees 60 minutes longitude at 16 hours 45 minutes 26 seconds, and presently a streams of anions is moving in a whirling pattern, rotating at an angle of 60 degrees, and headed towards the south-west?"
Ziggy frowned again. "I would say you need to start speaking in English."
Dr. K bit back a small smile and put on a sterner tone. "There's a disturbance in the south-west, outside the Dome. I'm analyzing it."
"Disturbance. As in, Venjix?" Ziggy enquired, taking another bite from the apple.
"Negative." Dr. K confirmed immediately. "It is different. I haven't been able to pinpoint what it is yet."
"Well then, let me go check it out." Ziggy said in his trying-and-failing-to-be-cool voice.
"There is a statistical possibility of 90.67 percent of you getting eliminated." Dr. K replied, getting up and moving to another computer.
"Eliminated?" Ziggy asked, placing the marshmallow on her table and following her. "As in, killed?"
"Affirmative." Dr. K replied, taking notes from the screen. "That is what eliminated means."
"You know what? I think I'm just cool being here." Ziggy said, slowly stepping away, "I will just leave you to your analysis thingy and go see if I can find someone else to do something with. Bye."
Dr. K smiled once Ziggy left, returning to her table and popping a marshmallow in her mouth. Sometimes fighting Venjix seemed easier than getting rid of Ziggy, she thought as she continued her analysis.

Year 2085
Some place away from Corinth where the Mystic Rangers were faced by grinders
"Magical source! Mystic force!" Xander and Vida shouted in unison as they transformed into their Ranger form.
The grinders immediately attacked them.
"Hiiyaah!" Vida shouted as she punched the grinders with all her might. "Take this!" She yelled, as she shape-shifted into a tornado, making sand whirl and damage a bunch of grinders.
"Xander, don't just stand there! Do something!" Vida snapped, kicking one grinder while she punched another.
"I'm not standing, I'm supervising you!" Xander replied instantly.
"XANDER!" Vida yelled, and the grinder she punched feel prey to her anger for Xander.
"Okay, relax, V." Xander replied smoothly as he joined the fight. "Mystic fighters!" he chanted, as wrestling gloves appeared in his hands. "Mystic muscles!" he chanted again, as he grew muscular. Within a few minutes, all the grinders were down, and only the attack-bot was left standing.
"Let's double team this." Vida said, grabbing her magi-staff.
"Right behind you" Xander replied, grabbing his magi-staff as well.
A few punches, a couple of kicks, and just a single spell later, the attack-bot was worn out and fell to the ground.
"Had enough?" Vida yelled.
The attack-bot simply got up and retreated.
"Don't these things grow anymore?" Xander asked Vida as they unmorphed.
"I'm glad they don't." Vida replied, bending down and picking up a hard drive from a grinder. "We don't have our mega-zords remember?"
Xander suddenly remembered what he had been worried about before this fight began- how were they going to contact Claire?

The Domed city of Corinth, Dr. K's lab
"What is it Doc?" Scott asked as soon as the rangers entered the room.
"My censors are picking up bio-signals from outside the room." Dr. K replied, pointing to a particular spot in her computer screen.
"Well then, they must be prisoners." Ziggy replied, shrugging.
"As usual Ranger Green, you are wrong." Dr. K snapped harshly. "It looks like someone has been taping in the morphing grid."
"Whoa! Hold on a second." Scott interrupted her quickly. "I thought only we could tap into that."
"Affirmative." Dr. K agreed.
"Well then let's go see what's going on." Dillon suggested immediately.
"Negative, Ranger Black." Dr K. discouraged the idea, shaking her head. "I need to run further results before I can send you out. It may be too dangerous for you."
"Okay then-"
"Just tell us when-"
"It's boom time-"
"And we will-"
"Blow up-"
"Whatever it is-"
"BOOM!"
Gem and Gemma chirped happily, high-fiving each other and running away.
"Let us know if anything turns up." Scott said as he and the other rangers walked away.
Dr. K nodded, acknowledging him, before she returned to her world wide scan.
