Recap
We should get back to the command center. We need to tell the others so we can create a plan to rescue Leo. "Andros and Karone look at each other and said "Right let's go."
Chapter 5
Both monsters step out with a pissed off Leo and start walking to the holding chambers. This is the place where Leo is going to meet the Master and have his "trial".
On the way to the chamber Leo is grunting and trying to break out of his bounds. Caller was started to get annoyed with Leo. He was furious to the point of wanting to slap him but he remembered that the red ranger was going to get his demise.
He chuckled to himself and the red ranger looked at him with eyes burning of hatred.
Caller looks at him back and he tells screamer to stop walking for a second.
He continues to look at the red ranger with a smirk. He pulls the red ranger close to him and says
"There is no point is fighting it red ranger. You will be in prison until you die."
Caller and screamer chuckle silently and continue to walk with a more struggling Leo until they reach the chamber.
Caller knocks on the door and the door is opened.
Both monsters walk Leo into a giant room. Leo's eyes looked around and he saw a lot of things. The room is gray with red ribbon outlined on the walls. There are chairs in a "jury box" which was made of pine. Also, there was a desk made out of a very strong mental with no chair toward the right side of the room. On the desk there are places for handcuffs and shackles. There is another desk near the jury that was made of the same material as the "jury box". All around the room where chairs for important people to watch Leo's "Trial"
However, what really catches Leo's attention is there is a throne in the middle of the room. The throne is made up a strong gold. It was large and had a lot of jewelry on it. This person is clearly the leader Leo thinks. But then Leo sees that someone is sitting on the throne.
This person was wearing a black hood so no one can see his face.
Suddenly, this person holds out his gloved hand to silence the room. The room gets quickly quiet. As soon as the room was quiet the person starts to talk.
"This is a great day. We have the red ranger standing before us and he is not in uniform."
Monsters start to chuckle until the person speaks again.
"Oh, Silly me I forgot that this red ranger thought that the trouble would be over for him!"
The leader gets up from his throne and walks to Leo. He reaches Leo and looks at him as he continues to talk.
"But silly red ranger… the trouble has just started for you." He whispers in Leo's ear.
Leo grunts and tries to get out of his bounds even more as the leader starts to laugh.
He looks at caller and screamer and tells them to "ungag him."
Caller does just that and Leo can finally breath though his mouth again. He looks at the black hooded man and says.
"You are making a big mistake of kidnapping me!" "My friends will find me or I will escape." "I did nothing wrong!" "My team and I protected the Earth from evil!" The ranger hears a bunch of angry shouts until the hooded man puts his hand up.
The hooded man walks back to the throne and sits down. He looks at the fuming red ranger and says
"Are you talking about Trakenna and her monsters who were only trying to explore your world?"
Leo looks at the man stunned and angrier than ever. He breaths and starts talking again.
"My team and I defeated Trakeena and her monsters." "She along with her father were trying to rule and conquer other worlds including Terra Venture and Mirinoi." "In order to gain back the peace that was lost we needed to end the evil." Leo looks around the room and continues "There is nothing that you can do me that is justified." Monsters continue to shout and boo at him.
Again, the hooded man puts his hand up and talks to Leo. This time in a challenging voice.
"Oh, we know that Trakeena can not come back." "However, your… imprisonment will do nicely for the sacrifice of her life!" He laughs evilly as Leo is shocked and angry.
The room erupts in positive cheering including Screamer and Caller.
Leo starts to struggle the hardest that he has ever struggled as monsters are laughing and cheering.
The hooded man stands up out of his throne and the room quiets. He looks around and says
"The red ranger's "trial" will start now." He looks toward caller and screamer and ordered them and other monsters to put on Leo's prisoner jumper with the handcuffs and shackles.
The room erupted in happiness and pride. They were so happy that finally a ranger would be punished for the death of Trakeena and her father. The monsters did not care what happened to the ranger.
Leo was dragged out of the room kicking and yelling.
10-15 mins Later
Leo was dragged back into the room wearing a black jumpsuit with the numbers 34642 in the front and cuffs. He looked a little tired and bruised but still had a strongness to him.
He was dragged to the table and cuffed to the table. He forced to stand as there is no chair. He stares at the hooded man.
The hooded man was impressed with Leo. Even in the face a danger he does not cry or act weak he thought to himself.
The hooded man stood up and room started to cheer. After minutes of cheering the man held up his gloved hand.
Monsters and demons quieted down. Hooded man started to speak.
"Red ranger you are charged with the following." He pulls out a piece of paper and starts to read it off.
"The killing of Scorpius and Trakeena. Hurting other monsters. Falsely not telling the truth. Being a "Ranger. Stopping our plans to explore the universe, and…"
After 3 mins of listing Leo's "charges" the court room was booing, throwing stuff at, and cursing the red ranger.
Even after that the ranger was not affected. He still had the anger expression on his face.
The trial lasted 5 mins and the verdict was Guilty the "jury" of monsters announced. The jury was consisted of Decibat, Secreter, Rayscron, Uynfer, Powoff, Junfe, Egetcer, and Lofer
The monsters were so happy and crying. Finally, a human was being punished for something that in their minds did things that were terrible.
For Leo he was shocked but in his heart he did nothing wrong. He was protecting his home, his family, and other people including his lovely wife Karone. He thought about her and was wondering if she and the unborn baby were okay. He missed her so much but knew that Andros can take care of her. Also, he missed his team, parents, and others.
I love you so much Karone and I am so sorry that I am not there. I want to come home so badly and I will even if takes me until I am 100 years old, I will be with you and our child. He thought to himself feeling like he wanted to cry but not right now.
The man on the throne stood up and listed the punishments.
"The punishments are that he will be working as a slave (hard labor), forced to watch as we conquer worlds, sitting in a jail for the rest of his life, torture, and other things."
The hooded man walked down the steps and said that screamer and caller among other monsters were going to deliver Leo to the Trakenna Imperial Prison.
"If anyone else wants to come and see the red ranger put in prison come along!"
Everyone from the room stood up and followed as caller and screamer unhooked Leo from table. As they walked out of the door and toward the prison monsters started cheering. Everyone enters a portal and they transport to the prison.
Leo decided to struggle a little bit but he was very tired. Even that happened within the past 1.5-2.5 hours was catching up to him.
2 hours later
They arrive at the Prison and Leo is escorted to his cell by all of the monsters/demons.
They walk to the last cell in the prison and they throw him in there. Caller and screamer take the handcuffs and shackles off. The cell is a full door with a flap in the door. The room is 3 by 4 feet. There is a little bed, a pillow, and a thin old blanket. There is also a window that that is a lot of bars on it. A toilet, sink, and a desk with paper and a pencil was also included but nothing else. Nothing that Leo could kill himself with anyway.
The hooded man looks at Leo and says to him
"Enjoy your hell red ranger you have earned this."
Every monster and demon laugh as they all walk away.
Once they leave Leo who has been holding in the tears, starts to cry. He knows that his life is changing for the worst. He knows that this is his start to hell. He stands up and walks to the window. Then he leans on it looking out into the horizon. He starts to think about his life and continues to cry until he falls asleep.
Leonardo Andrew Corbett (Leo), former red ranger turned captive who has never been to a jail was now in a prison. He is to never see/hold/ kiss his wife, see the birth of his child, watch them grow up, do the things that he wants to do, and much more.
Instead, he is forced to pay the price for something that is not his fault and everyone knows it. The punishments are going to be causes to hurt the red ranger to the point of demise.
This is going to be Leo's toughest fight for not just his life but for his freedom.
