In Prison

There was a young man who was at the Sandor Falls Recreational Center, and he was doing a good job at practicing his roundhouse kicks. Queen Nada observed him.

"Honey," said Queen Nada.

"Yes?" asked King Zycon.

"See that guy?" said Queen Nada.

"I see!" said King Zycon.

"Do you think that we can get him to work for us, please?" asked Queen Nada.

"I'll see if I can make it happen," said King Zycon.

The young man finished his workout and went to take a shower. After he took a shower, he proceeded to leave the building, and then, he found himself ambushed by a bunch of Colters. There were too many of them, and they overpowered him. They kidnapped him and took him to the Agorn base in front of King Zycon. The Colters restrained him while King Zycon was talking to him.

"Tim Green!" said King Zycon.

"How do you know my name?" asked Tim.

"I have my methods," said King Zycon, "anyway, I want to make a deal with you."

"Yeah!" said Tim, "what is it?"

"Either you work for me, or you can rot for the rest of your miserable life in an Agorn prison!" said King Zycon, "It's up to you."

"I will never work for you!" said Tim, "I live by a higher law, and I will not violate it!"

"Very well," said King Zycon, "he has made his choice. Take him to his cell! Maybe that will change his mind!"

Some Colters escorted Tim to his cell, and they tossed him inside, locked the door, and went away. The prison conditions were not all that bad. Although, the prison did have dim light.

"You know," said Coress, "maybe we need to do the same thing with the Power Rangers!"

"Yeah?" asked King Zycon, "what is that?"

"Maybe the secret to destroying the world is not destroying the Power Rangers, but it is maybe just simply getting them out of the way!" said Coress.

"Are you recommending something?" asked King Zycon.

"We should throw the rangers in prison also!" said Coress.

"Hmm, you might have something there," said King Zycon, "Roca! Get in here!"

Roca came to King Zycon as quickly as he could.

"Yes, your majesty?" asked Roca.

"Make me a monster who can transport people to a different location!" said King Zycon.

"I'll work on it!" said Roca.

"You'd better!" said King Zycon.

Roca went to his laboratory as quickly as he could. He began work on the new monster. He called the monster Transporticon. He then went to present him to King Zycon.

"Can he do the job?" asked King Zycon.

"Yes, he can!" said Roca.

"Great!" said King Zycon, "here's the plan."

King Zycon whispered a message in Transporticon's left ear.

"Can you do that for me?" asked King Zycon.

"Yes, I can!" said Transporticon.

"Great!" said King Zycon, "then get going!"

"Right away, sir!" said Transporticon.

King Zycon was in good spirits.

Transporticon began attacking the public of Sandor Falls in order to draw out the Power Rangers. The plan worked. The alarm sounded in the Temple of Olestria. The rangers came to the temple viewing screen as quickly as they could.

"What's going on?" asked Asuka.

"We have a monster who is attacking the public of Sandor Falls," said Delisa.

"Well," said Gary, "let's get going! It's morphin' time!"

"Power of nature!" said the rangers as they morphed.

They arrived on the scene.

"Hello, Power Rangers," said Transporticon, "I am Transporticon, and you are going to prison!"

Transporticon shot a transporting beam, and the unmorphed Power Rangers landed in the same cell as Tim. Tim stepped backward as the rangers landed in the same cell.

"Who are you?" asked Tim.

"We're the Power Rangers," said Asuka.

Mary Ann slightly jabbed Asuka, and Mary Ann and Gary gave Asuka an angry look.

"Sorry," said Asuka.

"It's just as big mouth said," said Mary Ann, "we're the Power Rangers."

They gave Asuka another angry look.

"Sorry," said Asuka.

"So, what are your names?" asked Tim, "I'm Tim!"

"I'm Asuka," said Asuka.

"I'm Gary," said Gary.

"And I'm Mary Ann," said Mary Ann, "nice to meet you!"

Tim shook all of their hands.

"So, who's protecting the Earth?" asked Tim.

"Nobody, I guess," said Asuka.

"Then, we need to get you guys out of here as soon as possible," said Tim, "we need a plan!"

Tim thought to himself for a while.

"I've got it," said Tim, "I'll pretend that I want to join them, deceive them, and takeover the guards when they open the door. Are you with me?"

"We sure are!" said Mary Ann.

"I am," said Gary.

"Me, too!" said Asuka.

"Then, let's do it!" said Tim.

"Okay!" said Tim, out loud, "I give up! I don't want to be in here any longer! You guys win!"

Some of the guards heard Tim and went right to their cell. Two guards unlocked the cell door, and the four of them overpowered them and knocked them unconscious. The four of them took their door passes.

"Okay, everyone!" said Tim, "we need to move quietly and quickly out of here. Understand?"

They all nodded affirmatively. They moved quickly and quietly overpowering the guards that were in the way. Soon, they were at the warden's office.

"Okay, everyone," said Tim, "we're at the warden's office. More than likely, he will see us, so we have to run as quickly as possible. Are you ready? On three, one, two, three!"

They ran past the warden's office, and the warden did detect them.

"Oh, no!" said the warden.

The warden informed the remaining guards and turned on the prison searchlights. The four of them made it to the outer courts of the prison.

"Okay," said Tim, "I am out of ideas. Does anyone know about where we can go from here without getting taken back to the prison?"

"You know," said Gary, "I might have an idea. Since we are in the prison courts, I might be able to summon my zord! Let's give it a try! Eagle Zord, now!"

The Eagle Zord came to Gary.

"Okay, here's the plan," said Gary, "I will pilot, and you guys hold on to the wings."

"Got it!" said Mary Ann.

Gary hopped inside the Eagle Zord, and the other three grabbed hold of its wings.

"Hold on, everyone!" said Gary.

"Okay!" said Asuka.

Gary flew the Eagle Zord to the Temple of Olestria. They landed beside the temple, and Gary returned the zord.

"Rangers," said Delisa, "I'm so glad that you are safe!"

Then Delisa noticed Tim.

"Who's he?" asked Delisa.

"This is Tim," said Mary Ann, "he helped us get out of the prison."

"Nice to meet you," said Tim.

Tim extended his hand, but Delisa did not shake it. He withdrew his hand.

"Rangers," said Delisa, "this is supposed to be a secret location. I told you not to violate the identity rule! We could be in danger! Why?"

"It was my fault," said Asuka, "I was the one who told him that we were Power Rangers."

"Asuka," said Delisa, "what if someone that you told took over this base? What could we have done, huh?"

"I'm sorry," said Asuka.

"Don't do this again," said Delisa.

"I won't," said Asuka, "I'm sorry."

"Now, in this case, it will not be a problem!" said Delisa.

"What do you mean?" asked Mary Ann.

"Anyone who helped you get out of that prison would make a good Power Ranger, but this will not always be the case," said Delisa.

"Are you serious?" asked Mary Ann.

"Yes," said Delisa, "I want to make him into a Power Ranger."

"You won't regret this," said Tim, "my training in the marine corps will be beneficial to this team."

"You were in the marines?" asked Mary Ann.

"Yes, I was," said Tim, "I was a sergeant."

"Wow!" said Gary.

"That's why he is perfect for the ranger that I am about to make him. Tim, your duties will be on and off the field. You will be a commander of the team. Although Gary is the team captain, you and Gary will make an excellent team," said Delisa.

Mary Ann and Asuka began to smile.

"Okay, Tim," said Delisa, "let me tell you about your powers. You will be the green ranger. Your zord is the Tortoise Zord. It will bring the other zords into battle. It also has a warrior mode. You have the power of Earth's weather. Your weapon is the Turtle Staff!"

The others were astonished.

"Wait!" said Tim, "I've been thinking. What if someone drops a bomb in the Tortoise Zord while it is opening to release the other zords? Won't it wipe out all of the zords completely?"

"No," said Delisa, "the Tortoise Zord is protected with a force field inside. That should not be a problem."

"Okay," said Tim, "nothing further."

The alarm began to sound.

"Guys," said Delisa, "it looks like Transporticon is causing more trouble in the city! You know what to do!"

"So, Tim," said Gary, "are you ready for your first fight?"

"I sure am," said Tim, "let's go!"

"It's morphin' time!" said Gary.

"Power of nature!" said all four rangers.

They arrived on the scene.

"Back for more, eh?" asked Transporticon, "ready to go back to prison?"

Transporticon began to activate his beam again.

"Not this time," said Gary, "everyone fire!"

They all took their blasters and fired at the transporter beam. The beam was destroyed.

"My beam!" said Transporticon, "it's destroyed! Now, I'm mad!"

"Who cares?" said Tim.

Transporticon began to charge through the rangers, knocking them over like bowling pins. Transporticon laughed evilly. Then, Asuka took his blasters and shot at Transporticon's left foot. As a result, Transporticon's foot became sore. All the rangers noticed this.

"Alright," said Gary, "we almost got him! Now, let's put him down! Nature Launcher, now!"

The red, yellow, and blue rangers assembled their weapons to form the Nature Launcher.

"Ready, fire!" said Gary.

The blast knocked Transporticon unconscious. King Zycon noticed the situation, healed Transporticon, and made him giant.

"Whoa!" said Asuka.

"Tim," said Gary, "are you ready for this?"

"I sure am!" said Tim, "Tortoise Zord! Now!"

The Tortoise Zord came to the rangers and released the other zords. The other zords came to their respective rangers, and the rangers hopped inside those zords.

"Alright, everyone," said Gary, "let's form the Nature Megazord!"

They combined their zords to form the Nature Megazord. Transporticon tried to activate his transporter beam and suck the Nature Megazord inside, but it didn't work.

"Fire beam, now!" said Gary.

The blast disabled Transporticon's beam.

"My beam!" said Transporticon, "it's destroyed! It happened again!"

The Nature Megazord delivered a few more punches to Transporticon, and Transporticon fell over.

"Now's our chance," said Gary, "Nature Saber, now!"

The Nature Saber appeared in the Nature Megazord's right hand.

"Alright!" said Gary, "let's finish this!"

They powered up the Nature Saber and thrust it through Transporticon's abdomen. Transporticon fell backwards and exploded on contact with the ground. Transporticon was no more. The rangers briefly celebrated, returned their zords to the Tortoise Zord, returned the Tortoise Zord, and went back to base.

"Coress, this was your stupid idea!" said King Zycon, "because we did this, now, we have one more ranger to deal with! This is all your fault! I swear; you're an idiot!"

"Sorry," said Coress.

"Whatever!" said King Zycon.

King Zycon marched angrily to his room. Everyone stayed out of his way.

"Tim, welcome to the team!" said Delisa, "you did well out there!"

"Thank you," said Tim.

"There's just a few ground rules that I need you to follow," said Delisa, "keep your and others' identities as a secret, fight fair, work as a team, and finally, do not use your powers for personal gain. Can you do that?"

"I sure can!" said Tim.

"Then, Tim," said Delisa.

"Yes?" asked Tim.

"Welcome to the team!" said Delisa, "I'm so glad that we have you!"

Everyone smiled, and Mary Ann patted Tim on the back.
