Cammy was trembling, her eyes were watering and her lip quivered as she watched the screen before her. She had managed to track Kendall down with the prince's help, but found out her sister had ended up all the way in New Zealand against her will. She was in a quarry, not far away from the beach where the Rangers had spotted the PlesioZord and she was with Fury.

Actually, she wasn't with him so much as Fury had brought her over. The fact that the overgrown cat had put his hands on her was terrifying enough to Cammy and the Rangers. However, Kendall didn't seem to be conscious at all. Fury had dropped her on the ground and she lay at his feet. Since Cammy had gotten her up on the screen, she hadn't moved once. Fury had a sick smirk on his face, leading Cammy to believe he had actually killed her. She was certain he was here just to gloat.

"You've got to stay strong," the Prince told her, placing his hand on her shoulder but Cammy shrugged it off.

"You were supposed to protect her!"

"I don't know how this happened, Cammy..."

"Don't talk to me!" Cammy shouted as she watched the screen. The Rangers, as quickly as they could, made their way to the quarry, stopping a little ways off from Fury. They were already morphed and ready for battle, but with Kendall on the field, they didn't want to start something they were bound to regret. Koda stepped forward, taking the lead against Fury as he cracked his knuckles and growled.

"No hurt Kendall."

"Looks like I already have," Fury said. "And I can do worse, unless you hand me all six of your energems."

"Do it!" Cammy shouted to the Rangers and they heard the desperation in her voice. Chase's heart wanted to break more than it already was. Kendall hadn't moved at all since he had arrived, and he was certain that had been the case for a lot longer. It was his fear that they were already too late, and Fury was just playing down the extent of Kendall's injuries to trick the Rangers into doing what he wanted. After all, they wouldn't be able to figure him out until it was too late.

Most of the Rangers hesitated not just for that reason, but also due to the importance of the energems. It was Kendall who had insisted to them that the energems were their top priority. They needed to be kept safe and out of the hands of the aliens. Of course, she had regretted making that call when Riley lost the gold charger, realizing that saving the team was the better choice. However, that was only for a charger. It couldn't be used once it was drained. Not to mention, having five living Rangers gave them a better shot at recovering the charger and stopping Fury than four dead Rangers and a charger ever could.

Saving the Rangers, then, had been the better choice. But now, Fury was asking for six energems. Kendall herself would have hesitated. If anything, the fact that she was in this position meant she had likely refused to give Fury whatever he wanted. She had made her choice, and would possibly be upset with the Rangers if it was in vain.

Koda didn't hesitate. He powered down, reached into his shirt and pulled out his energem. Tyler grabbed his hand to stop him offering it to Fury.

"We can't..."

"It Kendall," Koda said. "I protect Kendall."

"She wouldn't want you to give up an energem," Riley told him. Koda huffed loudly, puffing his chest.

"I protect Kendall," he repeated. He pulled his arm free of Tyler's grip and then tossed the energem over to Fury. The overgrown cat rushed to pick it up, excited to have his hands on even just a single energem. Then he held it up.

"It'll take more than that, Rangers," he taunted them. "Unless you don't think your scientist is worth the trade."

His teasing got to Chase, tearing him up inside. If it were up to him, he would give up all ten energems, and any other valuable stones Fury might want. But there was so much more that needed to be considered other than his feelings for Kendall.

Koda, seeing his friends were still hesitating, turned to them, red with anger, "Kendall is friend!"

"She might be dead," Chase pointed out. "Mate, he could just be playing us. That's what the bad guys do. We can't lose her and the energems."

Koda huffed again. He wasn't happy at all, but there was nothing more he could do. He couldn't force his friends to give up the energems. It wouldn't be right.

"I've got to do it," Shelby said and powered down, causing the boys to all turn to her with shock. She sighed. "Yes, okay, Ms. Morgan and I don't get along but... we can't just leave her with Fury. We can't really do anything without her. We can keep up with these assholes thanks to her. If we give her up, we lose anyway."

Shelby pulled out her energem and tossed it over to Fury, hoping strongly that she wouldn't come to regret her decision.

"Ms. Morgan will find a way to get these back," Tyler said with a nod as he powered down. "We'll get them back with her help, and we'll find the other three with her help. We need her."

He threw over his energem. Riley and Ivan followed suit. The logic did make sense. Kendall had been in the background for their missions, but she had played vital roles in ensuring the Rangers had everything they needed to succeed. Without her, they wouldn't have the weapons or the upgrades to keep up with Sledge, Fury and their monsters.

Only Chase was left with his energem, and he was torn. He knew Kendall wouldn't want the trade. Six energems in enemy hands was unthinkable. She would be the first to put her life on the line and the last one standing, and she had no powers to speak of. Chase could not justify putting her through whatever torture Fury had put her through, only to give up the energems.

But he couldn't leave Kendall. Not with Fury and not like this. Whether she was dead or not didn't matter. She needed to come home.

"And black makes six," he said, tossing his energem over to Fury. The cat picked up the finally energem, then laughed to himself as he disappeared. Chase feared the worse. He worried Fury had played them all, and that when he rushed over to check up on her, Kendall would already be dead.

Koda was the first one by her side and he cradled her gently in his arms. As the others approached, he huffed and growled. Instinct took over and he wanted to protect her from everything and everyone, even if they were trying to help. She was only safe in his arms. He could only be sure that he wouldn't hurt her. Tyler, Shelby, Riley and Ivan stopped when they heard Koda's growls. They had never seen the caveman so worked up and so didn't know what to expect from him next. Chase approached slowly, kneeling carefully.

"Mate, we've got to get her to a hospital," he said. Koda shook his head, hugging Kendall closer.

"No."

"The hospital has doctors," Chase said. "Doctors help. They'll take care of her."

"No," Koda huffed loudly.

"It's our only choice, big guy," Chase insisted. "Come on, Koda, we'd never let anything happen to her."

"Not give up energems."

"We did," Tyler said. "We took a minute, sure, but... She'd understand, Koda. We've got her back now, let's get her some help."

"Koda, please..." Cammy begged through the Dino Com. Koda hugged Kendall with one arm while he picked up the Dino Com. He looked to Cammy and saw the tears streaming down her face. "Don't let her die."

"Promise," Koda nodded. He put away the communicator then gently lifted Kendall as he got to his feet. He looked to Chase, "Where hospital?"

"Come on, mate, I'll show you."

-Dino-Charge-

When the communication ended between her and the Rangers, Cammy sunk into her chair and hugged Plesio tight. She was terrified of what would happen next. Phillip knelt next to her, touching her arm.

"Cammy, I'm..."

"I hate you," she whispered and the prince tried not to take it personally. He wasn't sure of the relationship between Cammy and Kendall, but he knew they were close and he knew Cammy was very upset. She wasn't thinking clearly. Besides, she had every reason to hate him. He had come to Amber Beach with the sole purpose of keeping Kendall safe. He had failed her. He had failed Cammy.

"I will call my doctors. I will ask them to look after Ms. Morgan. She will receive the best care..."

"What if she's dead?" Cammy shouted. "You let her die! You let Fury get her and now she's dead! Everyone I love dies!"

"Cammy..."

"You're a bad Ranger! You suck! You're the prince of stupid! That's what you are!"

"I am so..."

"Stop talking!" Cammy screamed as she jumped out of the chair and stormed off into Koda's caves. Phillip watcher her go. Guilt once more weighed heavily on his shoulders. He couldn't do it. He couldn't let his mission end here.

"Stop," he called through the communicators and very quickly got a response.

"If the bastard's back..."

"You go to a hospital and they are going to ask too many questions," the Prince said. "You need to take her somewhere else."

"And do what?" Tyler asked. "Hope she gets better on her own?"

The Prince shook his head. "I will call my doctors. I will have them on the first flight to New Zealand."

"Your highness, respectfully, that could take too long," Ivan told him.

"They can speak with you over a video call from the plane," Phillip said.

"Video call?"

"My doctors are good. They can talk you through anything you need to do until they get there."

"You've done this before?"

"Well, no," the Prince scratched the back of his neck nervously. "But... when I returned home after bonding with the energem, they taught me some first aid, in case I ever found myself in trouble. They were very clear with their instructions and... They've been caring for me since I was young. I'd trust them with my life."

"It's not your life on the line here," Riley reminded him.

"I know I've let you down before. And I've let you down again, but I assure you..."

"It is our best bet," Shelby conceded. "He is right. We bring Ms. Morgan to the hospital like this, and if they don't accuse us of having done it, they're going to want to look into who did. It's too risky."

"If things go south, though..." Chase said.

"You take her straight to the hospital and we'll work on cleaning up the mess then," Phillip agreed. "But we need to try. My doctors know who we are. They won't ask questions. They'll only help."

"Set it up, then," Tyler told him and the Prince nodded his head before ending the video chat. As he began reaching out to the doctors back home, he glanced down Koda's caves.

"She's not going to die, Cammy," he whispered. "I will not let it happen."
