Chapter 7

Rocky teleported to the street, helmet back on, and immediately ran in the direction of the screaming. She knew she had to put the others in the back of her mind right now or else she wouldn't stand a chance. She just hoped that when she got back CeCe would forgive her. If it took giving up her morpher she'd do it.

She turned down a street and saw Crockjaw laughing as Slates chased the innocent civilians. At the sight the Pink ranger growled and pulled out her double edge sword. She charged at the nearest Slate and quickly brought it down. This got the attention of all the other Slates, who all charged at her. Rocky swiftly took them out then pointed her blades at the alligator humanoid. "Stop where you are Crockjaw!"
"Traitor! You shall pay for betraying my Queen!" Crockjaw raised his own sword.

"Queen? When did you start that? It doesn't matter. Leave these people alone and fight me."

"With pleasure!" Crockjaw ran straight at her, swinging wildly.

Rocky ducked under the first swing and counted with her own, her sword making contact with his side. Crockjaw stumbled back to try and regain composure, but Rocky refused to give him breathing time. She kept the assault up, barely giving him time to bring up his sword.

Iracabeth growled as she watched her general lose the battle. "That blasted crocodile can't do anything right!"

Elizabeth sighed at her mother's temper. Whenever she got too mad she couldn't think properly. "Rocky can't handle Crockjaw and a giant monster. Send that piece of junk monster out, grown, to attack the city too. She'll have to pick one to fight and we're guaranteed to do some damage to the city."

The elder witch smiled at the younger girl, "You're such a smart girl."

Cole watched as Rocky took complete control over the fight with Crockjaw. It seemed that she would win in just a matter of time but when the alarm went off he couldn't believe it. The witch and sent a huge monster out to attack the city. It resembled a samurai however it's armor was black.

Cole groaned, "Oh, great, that's juts what we need right now."
"What's going on?" A voice behind him made him spin around. Cass had woken up and was making her way over to him.

"You shouldn't be up yet, Cassandra." Cole said. "You're pretty banged up."
"I'm fine." She pushed it aside and looked at the Globe. "There's a monster attacking the city? Can I pilot the Megazord on my own?"

"No, it needs all three of you." Cole said.

The Viewing Globe switched to Rocky still dominating Crockjaw. "Rocky's fighting the bad guys?"

"She was under a spell. She wanted to make up for what she did so she went out there alone." Cole explained.

"I've got an idea."

Rocky knocked the monster to the ground and leveled her sword at him, "You're finished!"
Before anything else could happen, the ground shook and Rocky stumbled trying not to fall. She looked up and saw the Samurai monster swing his sword and slice a building diagonally. The top part of the building fell to the ground.

"What? No!"

Crockjaw took advantage of her distraction and kicked her legs out from under her. He quickly stood and swung his sword for a finishing blow.

Rocky flinched when the sword started to swing and her eyes widened when she saw two sais block the crocodile's sword. They threw the sword up and slashed Crockjaw sending him staggering back. Rocky looked at the wielder of the sais. "Cass?"

The green ranger held a hand out for Rocky, "C'mon, get up."

Rocky took her hand and got to her feet. "Thanks. I'm sorry."

"I know you are, but we can't worry about that right now. You need to get your Megazord and go take care of the big guy." Cassandra said.

"Are you sure you can handle him?"

"It doesn't matter. Go!"
Rocky nodded and summoned her Zords, quickly putting them together to make her Megazord.

Cass stared at Crockjaw, "All right sewer breath it's you and me now!"
"No matter, I'll finish you off!"

Cassandra knew she couldn't finish off Crockjaw, at least not by herself, and knew she would have to keep him off balance. She was still bruised and a good hit to one of the sore spots would be a huge disadvantage to her. She just had to hold him off until Rocky destroyed the Samurai or her team showed up.

Crockjaw rushed her, immediately trying to finish her with a slash at her stomach. She flipped over it and countered in mid flip. However as soon as she landed on her feet she found herself having to deflect his attacks as he rushed her. She couldn't get close enough to get a counter in. It irritated her that she had the shortest range in the whole group.

Crockjaw used a downward slash at her which she blocked by catching the blade in-between the blades of her sais and the prongs on the sides. He tried to keep bringing the sword down and it took all her strength to keep him at bay. An idea crossed in her mind and she twisted her wrists in a swift motion. The blade of Crockjaw's sword snapped into three pieces and she smirked.

Crockjaw, however, took this very hard. "My sword! You broke my sword!"

"I meant to do that by the way." Cassandra said, grinning.

"This isn't over!" Crockjaw shouted, before retreating.

Cassandra grinned at her victory and returned to the dojo.

Rocky brought her sword down on the Samurai, dealing the last blow as he exploded. "That's that." She looked at the ground where she left Cassandra and Crockjaw but didn't see either of them. Hoping that Cass managed to beat him and went back to the dojo Rocky disassembled her Megazord and teleported back to the dojo.

When she arrived she saw CeCe and Allen standing on either side of Cass. Rocky demorphed and slowly walked over to them.

"How did you think to snap his sword?" Allen asked.

"Well I saw Raphael do it to Leonardo in that Ninja Turtles movie.." Cass confessed. Allen started to laugh. Cole stepped up to them and nodded at the approaching Rocky.

"Hi…" Rocky said awkwardly.

"We would've come to help you with that Samurai but CeCe waited until you were about to finish it before waking up." Cassandra said.

"He wasn't that tough." Rocky shrugged. "Look, I'm sorry. She had me convinced I was doing the right thing but she didn't tell me you were the rangers. She just said that CeCe was infatuated with the rangers and if I got rid of them I'd have CeCe back."

"What do you mean you'd get CeCe back?" Cassandra looked at her.

"Ever since the Power Rangers appeared I hadn't even seen much of CeCe. Then I didn't realize it was because she was a ranger, but she was always saying she was hanging out with you two and I don't know, I felt abandoned."

"It's not your fault." CeCe said. "You were under a spell."

"No, I shouldn't have even fallen for it." Rocky said, looking at her morpher. Unlike the others, whose morphers were converted to cell phones, Rocky still had the original morpher on her wrist, in the shape of a pink falcon. She undid the strap and held it out to CeCe. "I don't deserve this."

CeCe looked at her, then the morpher for a minute. She took the morpher from Rocky, and then started pushing buttons on it. The morpher turned into a cell phone and handed it back to Rocky. "If the morpher choose you then you deserve it Rocky. You're not the first ranger to be tricked into serving the bad guys."

"But CeCe-"
"She's right. She knows it, I know it and you know it." Cassandra said.

"Take it, Rocky. You can't help us if you don't have your morpher." CeCe said.

"I...I don't know what to say." Rocky said, taking the morpher.

"Say thank you and come give me a hug." CeCe said, smiling.

A/N So, I know it won't matter much but I am trying to figure out if I should use pairings. You guys have any ideas? And don't give me Deuce/CeCe or Deuce/Rocky or Ty/CeCe. Deuce and Ty more than likely won't even appear in this story. And I don't write them.
