After hours of work, Bulk and Skull had finally finished their monster. But for some reason, although all their material was in one piece, as the book instructed, it didn't move.
"Great, it's finished." Skull said, "Now, how do we bring it to life?"
Bulk flipped through the pages, but didn't find anything: "What, is this something they cover in another book? It doesn't say here!"
Furious, he threw the book away, upon which Skull said: "Don't they usually put these monsters out in a thunderstorm, wait for a lightning to strike and then the monsters come to life?"
Bulk looked at Skull questioningly, but Skull hadn't finished talking: "You know, in the movies?"
With this, Bulk stomped his way to Skull, grabbed him by his shoulders, threateningly: "Skull, that is... absolutely... the most... incredible thing I ever heard you say!"
"It is?" Skull was surprised himself.
"But we won't have to wait for a storm." Bulk deduced, "Let's see if your dad has any starter-cables.
He made to leave the garage, and Skull followed, leaving their "monster" alone.
On the moon, Zedd had followed their progress closely, and therefor recognized their finished work.
"Excellent..." he hissed, "... those stupid bugs have proved themselves useful after all."
He raised his staff and pointed it to the monster suit: "Live, my magnificent creature! Live!"
This was when Bulk and Skull had found the starter-cables they were looking for and returned to the garage. But once inside, they found that their "monster" suddenly became an actual, living, breathing, moving monster, without their help. The two looked at each other, then back at the monster, and started shouting their lungs out. They ran away, hid themselves out of the monster's sight, so when it tried to look for them, it didn't find them. It seemingly didn't care much about them, so it headed out.
"Oh no." Skull whined, "We just made a monster and now we let it on the loose."
Bulk grabbed Skull's shirt and pulled him closer, in his usual threatening manner: "Don't you understand? We made that monster so we would have to save the people!"
"But what if they found out we made them?" Skull asked.
"I won't tell them. Will you?" Bulk asked him.
Skull stammered his words, so no coherent sentence could be formed.
"Come on, let's put on our suits." Bulk told him.
At Angel Grove High, lunchbreak had started. Terrence went to his locker, where he met with Alexis again.
"Hey, how was your class?" she asked him.
"Not any more interesting than usual." Terrence replied, as he took out his lunch.
Alexis saw him taking his lunch, so she asked: "Don't like what's on the menu again?"
"As if you didn't already know." Terrence replied, although he actually smiled when he said that, and didn't use his usual sarcastic tone.
"Now, look who we have here." a familiar voice sounded, which whiped the smile off Terrence's face.
Both he and Alexis turned their heads to look at the person who spoke. It was Kim, accompanied by her five friends.
"So you would make friends with one the most obnoxious girls around here, but would stay away from us?" Aisha asked.
Terrence replied: "Believe me, if I wanted obnoxious friends, I'd have sticked around the bunch of you."
"And what do you want anyway?" Alexis wondered.
"We weren't talking to you." Aisha answered.
Before Terrence could say anything, Alexis was already talking: "Well, you can't talk about me as if I'm not here, so..."
"The girls are right, though." Tommy interrupted her.
"Don't interrupt me!" Alexis exclaimed to him.
This shut everyone up. It took a while before Adam decided to talk: "Er... look, it's like this, we're just trying to understand why you'd hang out with this..."
Since he couldn't finish his sentence, Alexis did it for him: "This what? Come on, say it."
"Never mind them." Terrence made to go away, "They're not worth... anything, pretty much."
"Wait." Billy started, "So you'd pick her over your frie..."
Before either Billy could finish his sentence, or anyone could retort, the six's wristwatches made their alarming sound. The six whined, as this meant they had to continue this conversation some other time.
"We'll be back for this." Tommy warned the other two as he and his friends turned to leave everyone's sight.
"Damn." Alexis swore, "Who do they think they are? What do they care who you..."
This was the first time she noticed how had Terrence turned chalk-white.
"Terrence, what's wrong?" she asked him.
Terrence didn't reply, as many thoughts came to his mind.
Months ago, he had witnessed the Power Rangers battling a mole-like monster. There, he witnessed how some kind of wrist-device made a strange sound, which apparently meant the same to them as a ring from a telephone. Ever since that day, Terrence had searched for something else that could make that sound, but couldn't find it. Which meant that only the Rangers hold devices that make that sound. Not to mention that he had seen strange things. When the city was first attacked, he saw a strange light. Once that light was gone, he noticed that the six had disappeared. At the time, he thought they just ran. But this wasn't the only time he saw that light, he saw it on several more occasions. Not to mention the one time that the same six somehow ended up at school, with no clear explanation as to how they got there, and suddenly wearing wristwatches which cannot be found at the stores. And just now, he heard those watches make the same sound as the wrist-devices that the Power Rangers use. Having seen the Rangers in action once before (where they weren't particularly bright), and knowing the six's intelligence level (or lack thereof), only one logical conclusion could be drawn.
