Chapter 4—What's Going On ?
When the Rangers had returned, none of them would speak to one another. Rita had already given Mistrust the ability to enlarge without the need of her Magic Wand. The fighting between the Rangers and their friends only made her stronger. If matters continued as they had, Rita wouldn't even have to fight alongside her monster. Feeling overly confident, Rita set up a pop-up chair and sat back, admiring her progress. Asimo was troubled. He had known the Rangers weren't like this and they weren't even transforming to combat the latest threat.
'Did you see the black mosquitoes that bit them ? I saw the source. She was tossing them out of a rucksack to do her bidding. Their dissent is only making HER stronger.', Pepper concluded. Asimo knew they had to do something, and fast. They ran to Ranger HQ and told Alpha 5 the bad news. Like always, he panicked.
'Ai yi yi yi yi yi yi ! Zordon DEFINITELY needs to her this, as well as the others !', he concluded, his processor racing. The bots ran through the corridors and went into the command center, where Zordon was waiting for them along with his friend, Fera of Triforia. She was the wife of Trey, the Lord of Triforia. If it wasn't Fera that would be able to convince them they were all mad, no one would.
Fera didn't need any convincing. She was aware the situation was the worst it could possibly become. She went along with the bots and began to talk to the teens. None of them seemed to be budging from their opinions or spats. If this continued, they'd be at each other's throats and killing each other.
'We have to work together. Mistrust has begun ripping Angel Grove apart and she'll only continue gaining strength !', Beta 1 pleaded.
'Just think, if you rip yourselves apart, we won't have anyone to celebrate our pending marriage.', Pepper said, a bit shyly. Asimo had known of it and had planned it in tandem with her, but the initial shock had been enough to wake the Rangers out of their divisive spells.
'No way, really ! How long were you going to keep this a secret from us ?', Kat said, just like an excited child. Like the other ladies of the group, a wedding was always a grand reason for jubilation. At least now they could no longer be affected by Mistrust's emissaries.
'Thank you, one and all. Fera, we need your help at this point. Mistrust has grown to unbelievable proportions.', Zordon said. Fera simply smiled, staff in hand and entered into the battle. Everything that had been carrying along so swimmingly had finally started unravelling like a massive ball of yarn.
