The Raid
"You know, boss," said Goldar, "I think that we should take on an easier planet, with no Power Rangers!"
"What are you suggesting?" asked Master Vile.
"How about KO-35?" asked Goldar, "we can make the red and silver rangers pay for what they have done to us!"
"I love it!" said Master Vile, "I have the perfect monster in mind for the job, and I'll also send some Planet Patroller fighters!"
"I'm going to love this!" said Master Vile.
Then Master Vile took a few steps backward, took his staff, and formed the Contra monster.
"Go to KO-35, and cause as much destruction as possible!" said Master Vile.
The Planet Patroller fighters and Contra left the base and went to attack the citizens of KO-35. They began setting fire to the abodes of the citizens of KO-35 and causing destruction everywhere. At the time, the rangers and Alpha 6 were unaware of the situation and were eating food from the simudeck. Then a garbled message came aboard their viewing screen.
"KO-35 is under attack!" said the man.
"Something's very wrong!" said Cassie.
"DECA!" said Andros, "set course for KO-35!"
"Acknowledged!" said DECA.
The Astro Megaship Mark 2 headed to KO-35, and when they arrived, they landed the Astro Megaship Mark 2 in an open area. When they deboarded the ship, they saw people crying and screaming, and many of the citizens' abodes were on fire. Then, Zhane approached one of the female citizens.
"Who did this?" asked Zhane.
"I was someone by the name of Dark Specter," said the citizen.
Then the citizen passed out.
"That's just like him!" said TJ, "he picks on people who cannot help themselves!"
"I agree!" said Ashley.
"So, what do we do now?" asked Cassie.
"The damage is done," said Andros, "all that we can do is protect them from future attacks. Well, everyone, let's get back aboard the Megaship."
"Right!" said the others.
But before they were able to enter the Astro Megaship Mark 2. Three of KO-35's citizens approached them.
"Can we help you?" asked Carlos.
"I'm Zydis," said one of the citizens, "and these are my friends Malar and Dolar."
"Hi!" said Malar and Dolar.
"And because of what those evil villains have done to our planet, we would like to fight!" said Zydis.
Andros did not know how to respond to them. Also, TJ and Carlos looked at Andros.
"Okay," said Andros, "come on aboard the ship, and we'll show you how to become rangers."
Zydis, Malar, and Dolar were overjoyed, and they boarded the Astro Megaship Mark 2. Then they closed the entry door behind them.
"I have powers for each of you!" said Andros, "just before I give you these powers, I need you to promise me something!"
"What's that?" asked Dolar.
"That you will keep your and everyone else's identities as a secret, fight fair, work as a team, and not use your powers for personal gain," said Andros.
"I can do that," said Zydis.
"I'm in," said Malar.
"Me, too," said Dolar.
"Good!" said Andros.
TJ, Cassie, Carlos, and Ashley began to smile. Alpha handed each of them their morphers and communicators.
"Let me tell you a little about your powers," said Andros, "Zydis, you will be the orange ranger. Malar, you will be the purple ranger. And Dolar, you will be the orange ranger. Now, your zords, which you use just in case a monster grows giant or when you absolutely need them, are all Federation-type cruiser ships. They will form the Explorer Megazord, which wields the Explorer Boomerang. Now, as weapons, each of you has an Astro Blaster. Zydis, you have the Beta Sword. Malar, you have the Cosmo Daggers. And Dolar, you have the Asteroid Cannon. Together, these weapons form the Explorer Launcher. It is a weapon that freezes monsters in their tracks. Any questions?"
The three looked at each other and said nothing.
"Good," said Andros, "then, all of us have a monster to deal with. Let's rocket!"
Everyone but the silver ranger pressed 335 on their morpher, and they morphed. The silver ranger pressed MEGA on his digimorpher, and he morphed. They arrived on the scene. Contra shot lasers at the rangers causing them to tumble, and then, he shot lasers at the rangers again, and they tumbled again. Contra began to laugh evilly at the rangers' misery.
"Okay," said Ashley, "we have to get back in this!"
"Yeah!" said Zydis, "but how?"
"I know," said Dolar, "why don't we all fire our blasters at one time at this monster? Then, we can overpower him!"
"It's worth a shot!" said Cassie.
They all took their blasters and fired at Contra, and then Contra fell on his back. Then the rangers stood up.
"He's down!" said Andros, "let's make sure that he stays down!"
"Quadra Blaster, now!" said TJ.
TJ, Carlos, Cassie, and Ashley combined their weapons to form the Quadra Blaster.
"Ready, fire!" said TJ.
The blast left Contra unconscious. Then Dark Specter noticed the situation, took his staff, restored Contra, and zapped him to make him giant.
"Astro Megazord, now!" said Andros.
"Cruisers, now!" said Zydis.
They formed the Astro Megazord Mark 2 from the Astro Megaship Mark 2. And the orange, purple, and cyan rangers hopped inside the cruisers and formed the Explorer Megazord.
"Alright," said Andros, "let's do this!"
Contra fired large lasers at the two Megazords causing them to take a few steps backward and eventually hit the ground. Then, Contra placed his feet on top of both Megazords.
"What do we do now?" asked Malar.
"I have an idea," said Andros, "Delta Megazord, online!"
The Delta Megaship came to the rangers and formed the Delta Megazord.
"Delta Megazord gyro cannons!" said Andros.
The Delta Megazord fired its gyro cannons, Contra fell backward, and he was no longer on top of the Megazords.
"Good thinking, Andros!" said TJ.
"No problem, TJ," said Andros, "now, let's put this guy away! Astro Saber, now!"
The Astro Saber appeared in the Astro Megazord's right hand. Then they powered it up and thrust it through Contra. As a result, Contra fell backward, hit the ground, exploded, and was no more, and the rangers briefly celebrated.
"Whose dumb idea was this, anyway?" asked Dark Specter.
Master Vile pointed to Goldar, and Goldar began to become afraid.
"Sorry," said Goldar.
"Goldar," said Dark Specter, "all because of you, we have three more rangers to deal with. What do you have to say for yourself?"
"Sorry?" said Goldar.
"Don't fail me again!" said Dark Specter.
"You three did fine out there," said TJ, "I was quite pleased!"
"Thanks!" said Zydis.
"Welcome aboard!" said Ashley.
They all shook each others' hands and became well-acquainted with each other.
"Hey, guys?" asked TJ, "do you want to go to Adele's with us?"
"What's that?" asked Malar.
"It's our favorite hangout," said TJ.
"Why, sure!" said Zydis.
They all went to Adele's and the first six rangers paid for the new three rangers' food, and they enjoyed spending time together.
