Chapter 4: Revelations and Old Foes

Billy's words were met with surprise and shock. Then several people spoke at once.

"What?" Kim exclaimed.

"What do you mean we have a big problem?" Tommy asked.

"What kind of a problem?" Jason wanted to know, holding Grace closer and putting his arm protectively around his wife.

"The planet being threatened kind," Billy answered.

"Threatened by whom?" Jason asked.

"But wouldn't the current team of rangers handle that?" Kim wanted to know.

"Under normal circumstances, yes," Hayley told her.

"What do you mean "under normal circumstances"?" Jason asked her.

"I mean this is far bigger than normal, and much more serious," she replied.

"It's that bad?" Trini asked.

Hayley nodded. "I'm afraid so," she answered. "And the biggest threat comes from one of your most dangerous adversaries from your ranger days.
Tommy shook his head, shocked. "How the hell is that even possible?" He demanded. "All the villains we faced were destroyed or turned good by Zordon's wave," he said.

"Unfortunately, it is possible," Hayley told him.

Jason was getting very frustrated at all this dancing around and not cutting to the chase. "Why don't you just get to the point and tell us what's going on!" He snapped impatiently, glaring at her.

Hayley just glared back at him. "Why don't you just calm your ass down a little and I may do that," she retorted.

"Don't you dare talk to him like that!" Trini snapped, getting angry.

"Hey, let's all just calm down!" Tommy spoke up, moving to stand between Trini and Hayley. "Why don't we go down to my lair and Billy and Hayley can tell us all about this threat."

Jason looked at him, startled. "I thought you had dismantled that," he said, surprised.

"I started to, than stopped. I wanted to have it operational just in case," Tommy replied.

"Well, let's go," Kim said, heading back the way she had come. The others started to follow her.

"Wait, what about the kids?" Trini wanted to know.

"They'll come too. There's a playroom down there as well," Kim told her. She then yelled for the kids to come down to the basement. Three minutes later, the kids were settled in the playroom and they entered the lair and found seats, except for Tommy, who turned on everything and booted up the computers.

------------------------------------------------

"Oof," Casey groaned as he the ground for what seemed like the umpteenth time. The battle was not going well, to put it mildly. It seemed that no matter what they did, they couldn't pierce Diamonator's armor. Lily and Theo had even tried the elephant and bat techniques, to no avail. He has also tried the shark technique, with the same result.

Casey got back to his feet. It was time to try something else. "Unleash the spirit of the tiger!" He cried, raising his arms. His tiger spirit shot forth from him and slammed into the monster. The monster was knocked down by the force, but that was it. It got right back up and charged him. As he unsuccessfully tried to fight him off, Lily and Theo unleashed their animal spirits at the same time.

Again, it did nothing more than knock the monster down. Casey got knocked down as well from being so close to him.

As he got up, Theo ran over to him. "What the hell are we going to do? We're getting our asses kicked here!" He exclaimed.

"What if we try all three of our animal spirits at once?" Lily suggested.

Casey shook his head. "If two won't work, I don't see one more making that much of a difference," he replied.

"Well we have to do something!" Lily cried. "We won't last much longer like this!"

Casey knew she was right. Besides being tired, they were sporting many bruises and Theo's should was sore. But before he could say anything, there was a flash of flames and two more monsters stood there. One was blue and apelike wearing gold armor with large gold wings on his back and a sword with colored jewels set into the gold hilt. The other was a humanoid woman with long black hair and gold armor. She carried a curved sword that resembled a boomerang.

"Uh oh," Theo said. "This is just what we don't need right now."

"Who are they?" Lily asked.

"Casey shook his head. "I have no clue. I'm never seen them before," He told her.

"Rangers, it's time to meet you doom!" The gold ape snarled in a gravelly voice.

"Let's show them what real monsters are like!" The golden clad woman exclaimed to her companion. With that, they charged the three rangers, along with Diamonator.

-------------------------------------------------------

"Okay, I'll get right to the point," Billy began. "Lord Zedd has returned." Gasps of surprise and shock filled the room.

"But how can that be?" Kim asked.

"We're not sure of that yet," Billy replied.

"Could it be a trick?" Jason wanted to know.

Billy shook his head. "Unfortunately, it's not. I couldn't believe it myself when I picked up his bio energy signature but I double and triple checked it and there's no way it could be anyone else."

Tommy didn't have a clue as to how it could be, but right now it didn't matter. "Where is he?" He asked.

"He is in some kind of fortress structure somewhere near the city of Ocean Bluff. I can't pin it down any further than that," Billy replied.

"Ocean Bluff," Tommy mused. "That's where the current set of rangers are, isn't it?

"Yes," Hayley said. "But they have their hands full dealing with their own enemies."

"So what you're saying is; we need to go there and help them?" Kim asked.

"Precisely," Billy answered.

Jason stood up. "Well let's get going!" He exclaimed.

"Just a minute," Billy said. "Zedd isn't alone."

"What do you mean?" Jason asked him. But before Billy could answer, an alarm pierced the air, causing them all to jump to their feet.

"What's that?" Trini asked.

"Trouble," Tommy said and proceeded to bring up a display on the main monitor. When it appeared, everyone in the room gasped.

"No way!" Jason exclaimed.

"Goldar?!" Kim gasped.

"And Scorpina!" Trini added.

Billy nodded. "That's what I was going to say before the alarm went off. "We picked up their signatures as well."

"Oh man, "Tommy said as the rangers began to get pounded. "We've got to get there and help them!"

"Before it's too late!" Jason added.

"But what about the kids?" Trini spoke up.

"Don't worry, I'll stay here and watch them," Hayley assured her. "They'll be fine."

"Thanks, Hayley," Jason replied, handing Grace to her. "The diaper bag is upstairs in the living room. "It has everything you need for her in there."

Hayley nodded and began to walk out of the room.

"Are you guys ready?" Jason asked, feeling a surge of the old battle rush run through him. They nodded and all put one hand behind their backs. "It's morphin' time!"

"Tigerzord!" Tommy cried.

"Mastodon!" "Zack yelled.

"Pterodactyl!" Kim shouted.

"Triceratops!" Billy yelled.

"Saber-toothed tiger!" Trini cried.

"Tyrannosaurus!" Jason shouted. With that, they all morphed and in a flash of multicolored light, they were gone.

--------------------------------------------------------

"Lily!" Theo screamed as the gold ape fired energy beams from his red eyes, sending her flying backward. He started to rush over to her, but was stopped by a blast from Diamonator.

Casey struggled to his feet after taking an energy blast from the woman in gold's sword and crouched behind a car. "RJ, we're in serious trouble here!" He cried after activating his communicator.

"I know, Dom and I have been monitoring the battle," his master's voice came back. "Unfortunately, the only thing left to try is the Claw Cannon."

"That won't work," Casey told him. "If our animal spirits can't pierce Diamonator's armor, then it wouldn't either. Besides, we'd never get a chance to fire it. These other two are too quick, making it nearly impossible to get it set up."

"Well, the only thing left is to…" RJ was cut off as a blast hit the car and blew it up, sending Casey flying into a bench.

As Casey lay there, dazed and aching all over, he was dimly aware of RJ's voice screaming his name into his communicator.

"Oh my God, Casey!" Lily exclaimed, seeing him go flying into a bench after the car that he was behind blew up from a blast from Diamonator.

She started toward Casey when there was a flash of multicolored light. It dissipated instantly and when it was gone, six figures stood there, all outfitted in a different color.

Theo gasped. "Can it be?" He began.

Casey has also seen the light and it had snapped him from his daze. And when the light was gone, he couldn't believe what he saw. Six figures dressed in different color jumpsuits stood there. He'd read about them but had never once thought he'd get to see them in person; especially in battle.

"Is that who I think it is?" Lily asked in wonder.

Casey sat up. "Yes," he replied. "They're the legends that started it all. We may get out of this alive after all."
