A/N: I don't own power rangers or The Nightmare Before Christmas. Power Rangers is the property of Saban and The Nightmare Before Christmas is owned by Tim Burton and Disney. May the power protect you all and Happy Halloween everyone.

Kira smiled as she watched the rangers, Jenna, and Alex help set up Halloween decorations around Cyberspace, Hayley having called the previous night to ask her to do that. It made her laugh as, even though she was technically in charge after Conner said he wanted to devote his time to the rangers, Hayley was still calling the shots for the place. Currently Drake and Kris were hanging streamers, Amy was decorating the tables with fake candles and webbing, Calder was working on the fog machines, and Alex and Jenna were placing fake bats, witches, and other spooky things one the walls and ceiling. Trey was currently out picking up a few pumpkins for them to carve and set out.

"Boys and girls of every age, wouldn't you like to see something strange?" Jenna sang, dancing around as she decorated, "come with us and you will see, this our town of Halloween!"

"Is she still singing songs from that movie?" Calder asked walking out of the game room.

"Yep," Drake replied, "The Nightmare Before Christmas has become one of her favorite Halloween movies."

"Just wait until we start her on Christmas movies," Kris teased, jumping down from the chair she was in, "she'll be singing Christmas music until next Halloween."

"It's going to be so much fun!" Amy stated excitedly.

"Please don't threaten me with my sister sing Christmas songs," Drake grinned, getting hit in the back of the head with a wad of paper towels thrown by his sister.

"I heard that!"

The group of teens laughed, Kira and Conner shaking their head as they watched them. The twins started to run around, Jenna yelling on about how she was going to knock him out until Christmas, while the others watched in amusement.

"Are they always like this?" the heterochromic girl asked grinning.

"Eh it varies," Amy responded with a shrug, "they're just acting like siblings."

Just as Alex was about to say something they heard a loud shriek and turned to see Kris now standing on one of the chairs, eyes wide as she stared at something on the floor.

"What was that about Kris?" Calder asked confused.

"Seriously did you see a ghost?" Alex teased grinning at her.

"S-s-s-s-s…."

"Kris what's wrong?" Drake asked walking over to her.

"S-sp-sp-sp…"

"Drake spider," Amy stated pointing at where Kris was staring.

The red ranger looked and saw a spider scurrying across the floor. Shaking his head he walked over and stomped on it, Kris sighing in relief as she stepped down.

"Sorry about that," she mumbled embarrassed.

"It's okay Kris," Drake assured her with a hug.

"Seriously though I wasn't aware you were that afraid of spiders," Calder grinned evilly, "now I know what to wear for Halloween."

"You do and I'll spray you with bug spray!"

"It's fine Kris we all have things we're afraid of," Alex said smiling, "I'm afraid of vampires."

"Shots," Calder said rubbing his arm, "hate those stupid needles."

"I'm not a fan of zombies," Amy admitted sheepishly.

"What about you two?" Trey asked looking at Drake and Jenna.

Jenna simply smiled as Drake shook his head.

"Oh come on we told you ours," Kris reminded them, hugging Drake's arm.

"Eh heh you're going to think it's stupid," he said rubbing the back of his neck.

"Oh come on it can't be that bad," Alex grinned, curious about what it was the near fearless Drake was afraid of.

Drake looked at each of them and then down at his girlfriend who smiled encouragingly at him.

"I...I'm afraid of snakes."

The others laughed Drake shrugging in a 'I told you so' manner.

"That's not too bad man," Calder chuckled shaking his head.

"What about you Jenna?" Amy asked looking at the sister.

"Not today…" she whispered, "I don't want you to think any less of me so...some other day."

Alex took a step back, not really sure what she could do before feeling her phone go off.

"Sorry guys gotta go, mom wants me home before the storm gets any worse."

"That's fine, be safe going home Alex," Kira said as the others said good bye.

"Oh and Jenna," Alex said taking a hold of her hand, "if you ever need to talk you have my number."

Jenna nodded with a small smile, Alex exiting the building as Trey walked inside, carrying a crate of pumpkins ready to carve with one oddly enough carved already.

"Hey did someone bring a jack-o-lantern here already?" he asked setting the crate down, "cause if so I just moved it from in front of the door."

"Not that we know of," Drake replied picking up the carved pumpkin, "looks pretty generic."

"I think it's cute," the pink ranger remarked looking it over, "very old school."

"Don't all jack-o-lanterns look old school?" Jenna asked confused.

"There's even a candle in it," the green ranger observed looking inside it.

"Well we can never have too many jack-o-lanterns," Kira stated smiling, "now why don't the six of you start carving those pumpkins, boys there are newspapers in back you can use."

"Hey Trey," Amy said stopping the blue ranger, "what are you afraid of?"

"Clowns, hate those things," he replied nonchalantly, "don't know why either...maybe it's just the way they look."

That three boys nodded and went to get the papers, the girls setting up the pumpkins. The next hour was spent carving the gourds, and setting the candles in them so that they'd glow the brightest. As they finished they set their pumpkin around the main room, lighting them each until the room was aglow with the muted colors of halloween.

"Let's not forget this one," the blue ranger said bringing out the pre-carved jack-o-lantern.

"You know this lantern feels...strange," Drake muttered looking it over again, "almost as if there's something sinister to it."

"Oh you're just being paranoid," Jenna teased, nudging her brother.

"Heh yeah maybe I am," he laughed, pulling out his zippo, "well then let's light this pumpkin."

The group of teens gathered around as their leader reached in and lit the candle inside. As the wick was lit the six Primordial Shards started to glow and a cloud of green smoke came from the candle and surrounded the six of them, all of them looking around confused before vanishing into the jack-o-lantern itself.

"Rangers!" Conner and Kira yelped, running over to the pumpkin.

"What just happened?" Kira asked opening the top of the jack-o-lantern.

"One of Primora's attacks," Conner huffed, "and we have no idea what the endgame is for it."

~PRTS~

Laughter, much to Primora's surprise, was filling the bridge of her ship. It wasn't a high pitched laugh of a kid, nor was it a deep throaty laugh of a man, but a hollow, echoey kind of laugh that one would hear from a ghost in a horror movie. The origin of this laugh came in the form of a creature garbed in black armor, covered with a vampiric like coat with tears at the shoulders to show the spikes, and a sword attached to his hip. His head, which was a jack-o-lantern, was engulfed in a bright orange flame and his eyes shone even brighter as he laughed.

"Those puny rangers fell for it," he remarked in a echoey whisper, "they're in my world now."

"I'm impressed," Primora stated sitting up, "but tell me Knightmare how do you plan on taking their Primordial Shards?"

"That's quite simple my Empress I'll be making the rangers face their greatest fears, and they'll be so paralyzed by their fears that I'll be able to take those shards with no issues what so ever," Knightmare explained clenching his fist in front of him, "those rangers are going to be in for a terrifying night."

"At least you were able to capture the rangers," Magus muttered to himself, "I wasn't certain that your trap would even work."

"It's a time of the year that the humans call Halloween," the ghostly knight retorted, looking over at the spellcaster, "for them it's a common occurrence to light a candle in what they call a jack-o-lantern around this time."

"Yes yes Halloween, jack-o-lanterns I know all about it," Magus said waving his staff at Knightmare, "I learned about most human customs when I worked for Alcon."

"Anyway now that those rangers have fallen for my trap and have entered my world it's only a matter of time before you have their Primordial Shards my Empress," Knightmare continued, bowing to Primora.

"Good, see to it that I do get those shards Knightmare," Primora ordered with a nod.

Knightmare stood up and was encased by a pumpkin, the gourd shrinking until it disappeared with the ghostly knight in it.

"Empress Primora?" Destro asked looking over at her, "are you certain that Knightmare will be successful?"

"I have no doubt that there's a chance Knightmare will fail," Primora responded standing up, "as there's a chance that any monster will fail to beat those rangers, but his plan does hold some genius behind it."

Walking over to her chess board she grinned as she looked down at the ranger pieces, summoning seven more pieces with a wave of her hand.

"A sixth human my Empresses?" Magus asked curiously.

"The red ranger's sister, Jenna," she replied simply, "she holds the silver Primordial Shard at the moment and has been take along with the others."

"And the question marks?" Destro wondered looking at them.

"Their fears, what Knightmare will be using to take what I want."

Picking up the red ranger piece she placed it in front of the red question mark before doing the same with the other human pieces.

"If the rangers have to face their fears then it's likely they'll be too afraid to do anything to stop Knightmare from taking the Shards," she hummed gleefully, "soon I'll have what I want, and the rangers themselves will bow before me."

~PRTS~

Conner and Kira moved quickly after seeing the rangers and Jenna get taken by a cloud of green smoke, it didn't take their time as rangers to tell them something weird was going on. So picking up the jack-o-lantern the two went back to Tommy's house and down the stairs to The Cave where Alpha was waiting for them just as they had asked.

"Aye yi yi yi what's going on here?" Alpha asked as they entered the headquarters, "and what's with the jack-o-lantern?"

"That's what we're hoping to find out Alpha," Conner replied setting it on the table, "we need to run a scan on this thing to see if there's any kind of magic that would have taken the rangers."

"What about Jenna, where's she?" Alpha asked looking around.

"She's with the rangers," Kira said biting her lip, "wherever they are."

"Oh no, Jenna" The robotic ranger companion whimpered, Kira giving him a hug.

"Don't worry Alpha we'll get them back."

"Kira's right," Conner assured him, "the rangers and Jenna are tough they'll get out of whatever this is."

"I just can't stand it when something like this happens to the team," Alpha muttered getting to work, "when will these monsters learn?"

~PRTS~

The team appeared in mid air, all of them falling to the fog covered ground below mere seconds later. Each of them groaned as they pushed themselves up to their feet, dusting themselves off.

"Why is it that I'm always being dragged into these things now?" Jenna asked pouting, "I'm not even a ranger."

"Where are we?" the yellow ranger asked, her voice echoing off to the distance.

"No clue," Trey answered looking around, "but something tells me we're not in Reefside anymore."

They all looked around, spotting nothing but fog, dark shadowy scenery, and the occasional dead tree. In other words it was the perfect Halloween scene.

"Okay this is creepy on so many levels," Kris remarked backing up.

"Anyone else getting slasher movie vibes here?" Calder asked looking around.

"Don't even joke about that man," Trey muttered, "I can't stand those movies."

"I'm getting more a Nightmare Before Christmas vibe," Jenna offered touching one of the trees, "I keep expecting Jack Skellington or Oogie Boogie to show up."

"Could be," Amy shrugged, "there's a pumpkin patch and graveyard right over there."

The sound of a crow and a disembodied laugh made the teens shudder.

"Look whatever is going on here I'm sure we can take it," Drake stated firmly, "for the moment let's just find a way out of here."

"Might as well as start over at that spooky looking house," Trey suggested, pointing out the now appearing old house.

"Eh heh heh, d-do we have to?" Amy shivered as she eyed the decrepit old house.

"Don't really have a choice right now, there might be a way out of here in that building," Drake said starting towards it.

The group followed the red ranger, Kris clinging to his arm as Amy and Jenna hid behind the group. When they reached the front door Drake reached up and used the knocker, the sound echoing in the air around them with no response.

"Guess no one's home," Calder remarked rubbing the back of his neck.

The door creaked open at that, revealing a darkened room, candles flickering into life as they entered.

"Well that's not creepy at all," the yellow ranger mumbled as the door closed behind them with a loud thud.

"Greetings ranger…"

A pumpkin grew in the middle of the room and burst apart to reveal a black knight with a jack-o-lantern head.

"I am Knightmare, welcome to my world."

The rangers all backed up and got into fighting stances, Drake staring the knight down,

"Knightmare? Guess Primora wants to scare us into giving up our Shards," he surmised grinning.

"Keen observation red ranger," Knightmare complimented with a bow, "indeed I will scare you into giving me your Primordial Shards."

With a pointed glance towards Jenna he chuckled and pointed at her.

"All six of them."

"Well there's one problem with that you headless freak," Trey smirked, "we're not afraid of you."

"Oh I'm well aware that you're not afraid of monsters," Knightmare remarked with a wave of his hand, "But you all still have your frears, and I'm more then willing to exploit those."

"Take him down rangers!" Drake ordered, pulling out his morpher.

"Triassic Roar!"

The team stood there unmorphed, looking at their morphers confused as Knightmare laughed his ghostly laugh.

"Sorry rangers but in my world," he stated floating into the air, "you're powerless."

He waved his hand one more time, fire engulfing it, as black wrought iron fence separated all six of them.

"Here are the rules of my world rangers, if you wish to free yourself you'll have to fight that which you fear the most," Knightmare explained, "failure to do so in the time limit will result in an automatic loss."

"What happens if we win?" Kris questioned glaring at him.

"You'll be sent back to your world."

"And if we lose?" Drake asked not liking where this was going.

"You'll hand over your Primordial Shards and bow to Empress Primora," Knightmare replied almost cockily.

He held out his hand once more and engulfed it in fire, the floor underneath the six of them opening up to reveal a pit. Hearing each of them scream as they fell down towards their challenge Knightmare chuckled to himself, the floor closing up as Knirex stepped out from the shadows.

"Ah Knirex I had assumed you were still training," The ghost knight remarked, not looking at him.

"Empress Primora wished for me to see how things are progressing," the T-Rex samurai explained looking where the red ranger once stood, "from the sounds of it it's going well."

"I take it that you're not upset by how I'm doing this?"

"No, using your enemy's fears to weaken them is a valid strategy, cheap but effective," Knirex replied turning his back on him, "though from what I saw Destro might be influencing that tech girl's room."

"Hrmph it's not like she would stand a chance, she's not a ranger after all," Knightmare huffed annoyed, "but whatever he may do what he likes, I'll still get that Shard from her."

~PRTS~

Trey groaned as he hit the ground, pushing himself up he looked around to see that he was no longer in the house that they had entered but instead in what looked to be an abandoned funhouse. All around him was broken mirrors and peeling paint making it look like the place hadn't been upkept for some years.

"Well isn't this a nice change of scenery," he muttered to himself, "wonder what kind of weirdo lives in here."

The blue ranger tensed up as he heard the telltale sign of clown laughing, a shadowy figure darting through the hall behind him.

"I just had to say something…"

Heading towards the hall Trey made sure that he was aware of everything around him, not wanting to be jumped and therefore lose a potential advantage. Reaching the hallway he saw the shadow in he looked both ways to make sure that nothing was coming at him.

'I saw that shadow go this way,' he thought looking towards the right, 'I need to be careful can't risk losing my Primordial Shard.'

Walking down the right hallway he clenched his fist, coming to an opened room with even more broken mirrors lining the walls. What creeped him out the most though was deformed clown crouched in the middle of the room.

"Welcome ranger," the clown grinned, "I've been waiting for you."

"A c-clown?" Trey stated backing up, "great just what I need."

"What's the matter blue?" the clown asked creeping forward on all four, "you look a little shoken up."

Bolting forward the clown grabbed a hold of Trey and tossed him into the room, a wrought iron gate popping up to block his exit.

"You just need to have a…" the clown remarked turning to face him with a grin, "good laugh."

"Yeah you're the reason why I can't stand Stephen King's book IT," Trey stated standing up.

The clown touched the flower on his vest, a powerful torrent of water spraying Trey and knocking him to the ground. Groaning the blue ranger heard the clown laugh before he felt another jet of water hit him.

"You're still wet behind the ears aren't you?" the clown laughed as Trey stood up.

"And you're not funny," the blue ranger panted, "but hey I guess not all clowns are perfect."

The clown reached into his sleeve and pulled out a line of hankies, forming a lasso out of them and spinning around his head before lassoing the blue ranger. Struggling against the bonds Trey looked around to see if there was anything he could use and spotted a seltzer bottle that the clown must have dropped. Grabbing it he turned around to spray the clown and give it a taste of his own medicine but as he pressed down on the lever a balloon came out making the clown laugh even more.

"Oh come on," the blue ranger groaned throwing the bottle to the ground.

"That's priceless!" the clown laughed continuing pulling him in, "face it blue you'll never be able to face your fears, your Primordial Shard is mine."

"Think again!" Trey said wrapping the hankies around his wrist and tugging it back.

The clown was pulled off his feet and the blue ranger kicked him to the side. Jumping up the clown saw that he was next to the seltzer bottle and picked it up, pointing it at the blue ranger.

"Take this blue ranger!"

Trey ducked out of the way and charged the clown, his Shard glowing as he tackles him to the ground. As the two of them hit the ground the clown vanishes in a burst of confetti and balloons, the blue ranger standing up and morphing.

"Alright, now let's see if I can find the others," he said vanishing in a flash of blue.

Amy huffed as she found herself in the graveyard next to the house, the smell of rain and dirt permeating the air.

"Oh great," she muttered looking around, "like I don't know what's coming next."

Walking through the graveyard she started to look for a way out, not noticing a rotting had coming out of the ground behind her.

"I just have to get out of here right?" Amy said hurriedly, "face my fears, so as long as no zo…"

She froze as she felt something grab her ankle. Looking down at where she felt something grab a hold of her she let out a shriek when she saw the hand grasping her ankle. Pulling away she backed up until she felt something behind her and turned to see a zombie staring directly at her.

"You've got to be kidding me!" she yelped jumping away.

Looking around she saw zombies coming out of the graves and could feel her heart start to race as she saw the rotting corpses. The zombies shambled towards her, groaning as the left the rain sodden earth, her eyes wide she looked around and looked at them. Clutching her chest she let out a cry before leaping in so she could fight.

"I hate zombies! But to keep my Primordial Shard I'll fight!"

Running over them the yellow ranger flipped off the last one, landing and sweep kicking it to the ground. She could feel her heart racing as the zombies kept getting closer, her mind telling her to run away. But her heart was telling her that her friends were fighting what they were afraid of as well, fighting to keep the six shards they held away from Primora, and if that meant fighting off a horde of disgusting rotting corpse then so be it.

"Try not to lose your head," she joked kicking one of their heads off and catching, "ew gross!"

Tossing the head away the yellow ranger noticed the other zombies coming her way and then saw that the gate to the graveyard was on the other side.

"Just great, have to figure a way around them," she said getting into a fighting stance, "This would be easier if I could morph."

One of the zombies lurched at her, Amy kicking it back and flipping a second one onto the ground before it could even get a hold of her. She seriously was hating the latest monster, having to face a horde of zombies was not how she wanted to spend her day.

'I swear I'm going to smash that stupid pumpkin head of his when I get a hold of him,' the yellow ranger thought meaningly.

Kicking another zombie upside its head she smiled as she watched it topple back into the rest of the group and knock them all over. Seeing that the path was now clear she performed a series of backflips until she was at the exit gate, smiling back at the shambling zombies crawling her way.

"Sorry but this yellow ranger needs to get out of here and find her friends," she said with a curtsy.

Stepping out of the graveyard Amy suddenly found herself morphed, the yellow ranger clenching both of her hands in excitement.

"Alright, take that you stupid zombies," she cheered jumping up and down, "now to go smash that stupid pumpkin head."

"Nope!" Kris yelped leaping away from an overgrown spider, "Nope nope nope nope!"

The Pink Triassic Ranger got ready to run when she saw another spider scuttle in front of her, the web covered hallway providing the arachnides she was fighting the perfect venue.

"Stay away from me you eight legged freaks!" She ordered kicking it away.

Panting she felt the urge to sit down and breath, but the webbing that covered the floor prevented that. Looking up she cringed as she saw an even larger spider clicking it's pincers together and staring at her with large eyes. Shivering Kris backed up only to step into some of the web making her yelp and swat it off.

"Ew ew ew ew," she chanted as she wiped herself off.

Looking up at the large spider she clenched her fist and glared at it, it's pincers clicking quickly as it stepped forward.

"Oh no you're not taking my Shard you stupid spider," she muttered clenching her Shard in her fist.

'Though with my heart pumping so hard I'll be lucky to even be able to fight,' she thought keeping her eyes on the spider in front of her.

The spider turned around and shot off a web, pinning the pink ranger to the wall. Struggling to get the web off of her Kris saw the spider scuttling towards her quickly and managed to break free just before it was on her. Rolling out of the way the pink ranger smacked away a smaller spider and wiped some of the web off her, looking over to see that the bigger spider had smacked it's head into the wall and was disoriented.

'I could use this to my advantage,' she thought grinning, 'I just have to find...ah ha right there.'

"Hey ugly!" she called out, waving at the arachnide, "come get me."

Running down the hall, trying her damnedest to ignore the spider webs getting caught up in her hair, she stopped when she reached a intersecting hallway, turning to face the spider chasing her.

"I hate spiders, I really do," she whispered jumping out of the way and allowing it to hit the wall, "but I can't lose my Primordial Shard."

Running down the hallway once more she did the same trick a few more times, the final time spotting a lose AC unit that fell onto the spider when it hit the wall. Panting she stood up and wiped herself off, morphing with a flash of pink and vanishing a second later, wondering if her friends were okay.

Calder sprinted through the hallway, glancing back to see a porcelain doll dressed as a nurse chasing after him, a syringe with an unknown liquid in her hands.

"Get back here and take your shot," the nurse demanded floating through the air after him.

"Not going to happen you crazy old bat!" he called back, picking up speed.

'I'm not going to let her poke me with that instrument from hell,' he thought ducking into a hallway, 'just got to make sure I stay ahead of her.'

Looking back he notice that the nurse wasn't behind him anymore, making him sigh in relief before he felt something behind him.

"Time to take your shot little boy," the nurse's voice echoed, making the green ranger tense up.

Looking behind him he saw the nurse standing there, the needle of her syringe gleaming menacingly, and one thought ran through his mind.

'I'm going to die here…'

As the needle came down the green ranger sprinted away allowing the needle to strike and crack the dusty tile floor.

"Oh that was close," Calder gulped looking up, "you wouldn't be willing to talk this out would you?"

"Time to take your shot little boy."

"Yeah didn't think so."

Pushing himself up he bolted so that the needle would miss him, jumping over the counter into the reception area. Grabbing a hold of one of the chairs there he spun it around and blocked the nurse's attack, his eyes going wide as it stopped inches away from his chest.

"This is why I hate getting shots," the green ranger stated tossing the chair to the side, "and it looks like you're out of…"

The nurse summoned some more needles, Calder rubbing the back of his head as in aggravation.

"Yeah should have saw that coming…"

The nurse threw the needles at the green ranger, Calder ducking behind one of the couches they had to avoid them. Panting he could've sworn he heard the nurse laugh as he heard the telltale sign of the needles piercing the fabric of the furniture.

"Come on out," the nurse demanded, "I promise that this will only hurt a lot."

'Okay let's see what we got here,' he thought looking around, 'not much really, bunch of furniture, some discarded pictures, some needles that she threw at me, a couple of…'

Calder looked back at the needles and grinned, a plan forming in his mind. Running out from behind the couch and across the floor, picking up the needle on the ground.

"How about a taste of your own medicine," the green ranger offered, lunging at her.

Body slamming her Calder narrowly avoided her attack and used the needle in his hand to 'give her a taste of her own medicine.' With a hollow shriek the nurse vanished and Calder stood up, morphing in the process.

"Well guess I won't be getting a check up anytime soon," he chuckled, "Now let's go find the others."

Drake hated his life at the moment, not that his life was bad far from it he had a great life as far as he was concerned. He had a couple who looked after him and his sister, he had his lost twin sister that he didn't even realize he had, a beautiful girlfriend, a great group of friends, he was the leader of a team of heroes. So why did he hate his life at the moment? He was surrounded by a bunch of snakes.

'Snakes, of course it would be snakes,' he thought kicking one away, 'it couldn't have been bunnies or those stupid colorful ponies, what are they called again?'

"Argh stay away you legless lizards!" he growled kicking another one.

'This is ridiculous!'

Looking around he saw that there was an opening up one of the walls of the room he was trapped in, and there was even a ledge that he would be able to use to get to it. The only issue with it was that the ledge was covered with the same slivering reptiles that he wasn't fond of.

"I have to do something," he grumbled looking around at the snakes below him, "Cause I don't want to stay in this room any longer then I have to."

Gulping he bent down and jumped towards the ledge, barely grabbing it and almost falling, before pulling himself up. Swinging his leg up to give him some footing on the ledge he stood up and sighed when he heard the sound of brick scratching against brick and looked up in time to see even more snakes fall down on him.

"Okay now this is crossing a line," the red ranger grunted pushing them off.

Knocking the snakes off the ledge he turned to make his way towards the door only to see that he was now face to face with a garter snake.

"Forget what I just said," he muttered as the snake stared at him, "okay buddy let's not do anything we'll regret."

The garter snake's tongue flickered out at him, the red ranger backing up as the green reptile moved to remain face to face. Clutching his Triassic Buckle he took a deep breath and stepped forward and reached out, the garter snake backing away until Drake grabbed a hold of it and tossed it to the side.

"Ugh hate those things," he muttered shaking his hand, "now then to get to that door and find everyone else."

Opening the door he walked through and morphed with a flash of red light.

~PRTS~

"Alpha have you found anything yet?" Conner asked as he moved from the hologram on the table to the computer.

"I haven't been able to find anything," Alpha replied with a worried tone, "I can't pinpoint their location, I can't even figure out what powers this monster might have when I don't even know what kind of monster we're going up against."

"Keep looking there has to be something we're missing, what about the scans you ran?"

"Nothing has come from those either except for some transport energy residue," the robot explained making the two former rangers sigh.

"Okay so we know that they were teleported," Kira summed up, "but we don't know to where they were teleported and we can't find them anywhere close by."

"Which means that they were teleported out of rangers or…"

"Or what Conner?" Kira asked as the red ranger stopped what he was saying.

"Or they were teleported into a different world," the former red ranger finished, "Alpha…"

"I'm changing the scan on the computer to see if the power matches anything like that," Alpha replied getting to work, "not the first time rangers were teleported to a different world."

"Yeah but every time rangers were teleported to a different world or dimension they had to free themselves," Kira reminded them.

"And we have the thing that took them," Conner reminded her, walking over and placing his hands on her shoulders, "so we just need to keep it safe."

Kira nodded and looked over at the pumpkin, biting her lower lip as she thought about the group of teens. As Alpha completed the scan of the pumpkin again he saw that there was a spike of energy and was about to tell them about it when a cloud of green smoke came from the pumpkin the rangers appearing seconds later.

"Rangers!" Conner said running over to them, the team taking their helmets off.

"How did you get out?" Alpha asked them, his curiosity peaked.

"We...had to fight our worse fears," Kris explained.

"Yeah and I'd rather not do that again thank you very much," the green ranger stated rubbing the back of his head.

"You're out now and that's all that matters, but..." Kira told them happily before noticing something, "wait where's Jenna?"

The team looked around and saw that Jenna wasn't there with them, Drake's eyes widening when he couldn't find her. The hologram shifted to show Knightmare standing in the midst of a group of civilians running away.

"Rangers I know that you're free of my trap, I can sense you," Knightmare called out to them, "but it also seems that you're one short."

Knightmare laughed, making the group shiver at the sound before picking back up what he was saying.

"Your friend is still in my realm and there's only two ways to free her," he remarked gleefully, "Either she faces her fears, which she seems almost reluctant to do, or you beat me."

"This can't be happening," Amy whispered.

"What is she so afraid of that she can't fight it?" Trey wondered, Drake shaking his head.

"No clue, she wouldn't tell me so I didn't pry," the red ranger explained quietly, "it wasn't my place and I figured if she wanted to tell me she would in time."

"If you wish to fight me then come," Knightmare said, "I'm sure you'll easily be able to find me, until then...well I'll just continue to spread my fear."

The hologram vanished and was soon replaced by the holographic map of the city with a red dot in the business district of Reefside."

"Suit up rangers we have a ghost to bust," Drake ordered picking up his helmet.

"So we're going to go beat him and free Jenna?" the blue ranger grinned, "I'm all for that."

"But what if it's a trap?" Kris pointed out, "what if he doesn't free her unless she beats her fear?"

"Kris is right," Amy agreed frowning, "we need to think this out."

"We still have to try," the red ranger said turning to them, "Besides Knightmare even said he was spreading more fear so we need to stop him."

Looking over to their robotic friend he added.

"Alpha can you see if there's anything you can do to get her out of there?"

"I'm already on it," Alpha promised moving to the computer.

"Rangers remember that you've already fought your greatest fears but that doesn't mean he won't have anything else up his sleeve."

"We'll be careful Conner we promise," Kris smiled.

"Come on rangers," Drake grinned, "we got a ghost to bust."

~PRTS~

"Hello?" Jenna's voice echoed through the dark, foggy field, "anyone here?"

No reply came and the brown hair girl rubbed her arms as she looked around.

"Remember what Kira told you when you start freaking out," Jenna muttered closing her eyes, "take a deep breath and sing."

Breathing in she could start to feel herself calm down a bit, making her smile, when a song came to her mind.

"Late at night I lay awake in bed, don't what to do can't you out of my head, and I… can't tell you why, Friday night I'm picturing you, sitting next to me whispering what should we do, and I… feel so alive."

"How cute," came a mocking cove startling her, "we have a future songwriter amongst us."

"Show yourself!" Jenna demanded looking around for the source of the voice.

"Though it does need a chorus young one," Gem replied walking out of the shadows, "hello there Jenna, how are you doing?"

"Gem?" she replied standing up, "why am I not surprised."

Gem laughed coldly, summoning both of the daggers that Jenna herself recalled using under Alcon's command.

"Because even if you don't want to admit it little girl, even if you try to deny it," Gem responded walking towards her slowly, "becoming me again, losing everything that you hold dear, is your greatest fear."

Jenna gulped and felt a shiver run down her spine as she stared Gem in the eye.

'She's not here, she's not really here,' she thought reaching for the Primordial Shard in her pocket, 'she's just a figment of…'

"Your imagination?" the Viralite warrior laughed, "sorry sweetie but I'm really here, and I'm going take back MY body."

"One problem is that this is my body, not yours," Jenna hissed.

Gem shook her head and leaped forward, kneeing Jenna in the gut and knocking the air out of her. Grabbing a hold of her wrist she spun around and flipped her over her shoulder onto the ground, Jenna barely managing to roll out of the way before Gem could attack her again. Seeing Gem lunge at her Jenna allowed her to tackle her, the human girl rolling with the Viralite warrior until she was on top of her.

"I'll take those," Jenna remarked taking a hold of the daggers she was able to wrestle away.

Moving back away from her former self Jenna got into a fighting stance that had Gem smirking.

"Oh so you still use my fighting style huh?" the Viralite teased standing up, "and here I thought you said I wasn't part of you."

"You're not," Jenna retorted glaring at her, "I'm just…"

"Using the fighting style you learned when you were me," she cut her off, "face it sweetie you're not different from me."

She smirked and walked over to Jenna, grabbing her wrist again as Jenna attempted to attack her. Disarming her opponent Gem picked up the daggers and pointed one of them at the girl holding her wrist.

"In fact it's as I've said before, you want to become me again."

"No I don't, I have a…"

"Family now, friends?" Gem asked knowingly, "oh how about a love interest?"

Jenna looked at her in shock, the Viralite twirling her daggers as she continued to grin. Jenna attempted to back up but Gem was on her in seconds, the Viralite attacking with the ferocity she was known for. Her back hitting the ground Jenna looked up and saw the dagger coming down towards her, rolling out of the way before she could get hit.

"I...I have my family back, my friends," she whispered making Gem laugh again.

"And I'm going to take all of that away from you when I beat you," she promised moving towards her, "I'm not going to be held back by you anymore, and that Primordial Shard you have will give me even more power."

"N-no way you're not getting the Silver Primordial Shard!" Jenna said reaching for it.

"That's not your decision to make sweetie," Gem growled attacking her.

"I WON'T LET YOU HAVE IT!"

Gem's blade was upon her but a bright flash of silver light knocked the two of them away from each other. Falling onto her rear end Jenna shielded her eyes from the bright light that emitted in front of her, Gem growling at the unknown attack.

"What is this, what's going on here?" she yelled.

'What is it indeed?' Jenna wondered peeking through her fingers.

"I won't allow you to hurt her," came a female voice from the light.

"You what?" Gem asked angered.

"You heard me," the voice replied, the light fading to reveal the source of the voice.

"I-It can't be!" the Viralite warrior said in shock, "it's the…"

"It's the Silver Triassic Ranger," Jenna whispered in awe.

The Silver Triassic Ranger stood in front of her, her back turned to her as she faced Gem, but she still emitted a light from her that illuminated the field. Her outfit matched the female rangers, the symbol on the side of her helmet a Triceratops, the horn that would be on the dinosaur's nose jutting out from the helmet to give it a horn like appearance. On her shoulders, instead of the typical silver, were golden shoulder pads, her belt, and the rings around her gloves and boots the same. The t-rex that covered the chest of the rangers wasn't white but gold as well, the mixture of colors making her shine even brighter. In her hand was a staff with three blades pointed inwards, instead of the sword that the rangers wielded.

"How, how are you here?" Gem demanded glaring at her.

The silver ranger didn't reply, instead turned to face Jenna and hold out her hand to her.

"Here let me help you up," she offered.

"Thanks," Jenna replied taking her hand, "but I have to agree with Gem here, how are you here?"

"Yeah answer the question," Gem growled darkly.

Triassic Silver laughed and shook her head, patting Jenna's shoulder lightly.

"I heard the call of your heart so I came to help you," She explained, "the light in your heart is quiet powerful, as I would expect from someone as caring as you."

"Well I hate to burst your bubble but her heart's as dark as mine," Gem stated, "So if you'll get out of my way I want to finish this."

Gem launched herself towards the two, the silver ranger glancing over at her.

"You're beginning to annoy me," she whispered, barely audible to Jenna.

Spinning around she twirled her staff and struck Gem away with a burst of light, Gem yelping and vanishing in the brightness. With the Viralite warrior now gone the two stood there, Jenna in awe of the power that the sixth ranger held.

"That was amazing," Jenna exclaimed smiling.

"Thank you," the silver ranger replied turning to her again, "but she's not gone just yet."

"She's not?"

Triassic Silver walked over to her and placed her hand over Jenna's heart.

"She's still here Jenna but the time will come when you're free of her," she promised with a nod, "for now let's get you out of here."

"Wait," Jenna stopped her before she could do anything, "who are you, let me take you to the rangers so you can help in our fight against Primora."

Triassic Silver didn't reply at first, Jenna reaching out to her when she realized something.

"T-the Silver shard is still in my pocket."

"Yes it is," the ranger remarked with a nod, "as for who I am...I'll be revealed shortly."

Opening a door for her to leave the silver ranger looked back at her one last time,

"It's as I said I came when I heard your heart call out to the shard," she reminded her, "until next time please keep the shard safe."

Jenna nodded and walked through the door, a flash of silver light engulfing her as she vanished.

~PRTS~

"Ah the sound of screaming will never get old to me," Knightmare said walking through the streets, "but it needs something...more."

Looking around he saw cars lined up along the road, people getting out and running from the sight of him.

"Ah that should do fine," he chuckled, walking over to the cars, "now to make the rangers get here faster."

Placing his hand on the car he used some of his power to warp it into a pumpkin, one by one the cars changed until they started to burst, coating the ground in seeds and the metal from the car.

"Ah yes a fine change of pace," the ghost knight stated pleased.

"You know," he heard from behind him.

Turning around he grinned when he saw the rangers there, all morphed and carrying the pumpkin he had trapped them in.

"If you really wanted to set a trap for us make sure we can't get out," Drake said pointing at him, "now release my sister."

"I'm afraid I can't do that red ranger," Knightmare replied calmly, "for you see she has yet to give up that shard of her nor has she beaten her fear."

'Though something's wrong, I can't sense her fear either,' he thought wearily, 'I wonder why that is.'

"Enough of this give us back Jenna," Amy demanded angrily.

"Yeah we're your opponents not her," Kris agreed.

"It matters not, if you truly wish for her to return then set your Primordial Shards in the pumpkin and hand it over," Knightmare told them holding out his hand.

"Wow I'm having serious deja vu here," Trey mumbled to his friends.

"Tell me about it," Calder huffed.

Drake placed his hand on his waist and shook his head, his free hand clenching into a fist.

"Not going to happen," he stated making Knightmare laugh.

"Then the only way to get her back is to beat me."

"Gladly," Drake replied as they pulled out their morphers, "it's morphin time!"

"Triassic Roar!"

Knightmare watched with interest as they morphed, the red ranger shouldering his sword.

"This is going to be a roaring good time."

The rangers charged forward, Knightmare pulling out his sword and blocking each of them he knocked the rangers to the side.

"You rangers have no hope of beating me," Knightmare promised, " not when I know what you're afraid of."

To make his point he turned to the pink ranger and held out his hand, spiders coming out of the joints towards her.

"Spiders!"

"I got you," Drake promised slashing the spiders away.

"Thanks Drake," the pink ranger said giving him a thumbs up.

"Not a problem."

"Very well then try this on for size," Knightmare said summoning some snakes.

Drake tensed up as he saw the snakes coming at him, Calder and Trey stepping in front of the two of them to block the snakes.

"Yeah really can't blame him for hating these things," Calder said with a grin.

"Tell me about it," Trey agreed.

"Gr…very well then try this on for size," Knightmare growled holding up his sword, "Howling Wind."

With a slash of his sword he let loose a burst of dark wind, knocking the rangers back.

"Well isn't he just full of hot air?" Calder joked as they tried to stay standing.

"Is now really the time for jokes?" Amy asked looking at him.

"I find it helps break the tension, it's why I started to do it recently."

"We need to focus on beating him," Drake told them as the wind started to pick up some more, "first we need to get pass this attack."

"Good luck with that rangers," Knightmare said strengthening it again, "but that pumpkin is more than just a trap for you, it gathers fear and gives me power."

"So if we destroy the pumpkin," Trey observed.

"Then we beat him!" Kris concluded looking for the gourd, "So where is it?"

The team looked around and noticed that it was now off to the side, behind Knightmare where they couldn't reach it.

"I believe it's out of your range," the ghost knight taunted, "too bad, maybe if your pink ranger still had her bow she might have been able to get it."

Just then a flash of silver appeared behind him, Jenna being released from the pumpkin and landing on the ground.

"Then allow me to get rid of this thing," she said picking it up.

"Jenna!" the rangers called out seeing her.

"No!" Knightmare yelled turning and attacking her.

Lifting the pumpkin she threw it towards the ground with enough force that it burst on contact, the attack hitting her and knocking her into a pillar. The sounds of screams and howls could be heard as the fear that the jack-o-lantern gathered was freed and disappeared into the air, the ghost knight watching as his power left.

"No all that fear!" he said backing up.

"Is gone," Drake said as his blade started to glow, "and you will be soon as well."

Turning around Knightmare found himself surrounded by a prehistoric forest with the red ranger twirling his sword as he heard the roar of a t-rex. Crouching down he leaped forward at a high speed and delivered a powerful slash with a t-rex following and chomping down on him. Running his hand up the back of his blade Knightmare exploded behind him.

"Now that was a Triassic victory!"

~PRTS~

"Are you sure you're okay?" Drake asked his sister as she sat down.

"Yes Drake I'm sure I'm fine," she promised waving him off, "I can take anything you can."

"We're just happy that you're okay," Kris said taking a hold of Drake's arm, "we were worried when we saw you weren't free yet."

"Yeah what did you fight anyway?" Calder curiously asked.

"Still not telling you," Jenna replied smiling, "but...I did have some help."

"Oh really who helped you?" Conner asked intrigued.

Jenna looked around at each of them, biting her lower lip as she tried to think of the best way to tell them. She knew she wasn't crazy but it wasn't certain that her friends wouldn't think she saw things in that crazy trap. In the back of her mind she wasn't so certain it wasn't all some crazy dream but her heart told her that it was true, she knew who she saw.

"I...I was saved by the silver ranger," she informed them, the room going quiet.

The rangers all looked at each other in shock, all of them not sure what to say when Conner stepped in.

"Jenna are you sure you saw the silver ranger?"

"Yeah I'm sure," Jenna assured them, "she was powerful and said that her identity would be revealed soon."

"So we don't know who it is," Drake sighed, "that sucks."

"But we know that she'll be making an appearance soon," Kris reminded them, "that's good."

"Kris is right, we just need to keep looking," Amy said backing up her friend.

The rangers left, Conner grabbing Jenna's shoulder to hold her back.

"You still have the silver shard don't you?" he asked when they were out of earshot.

"Uh yeah? Why?" she asked confused.

"Then how did you see the silver ranger when you still have it?" the former red ranger wondered sitting down.

"Are you saying that she was seeing things?" Alpha asked his friend.

"No but we need to be more careful with the silver shard." he assured them with a wave, "I'm just curious as to who this ranger is and how she was able to morph without the shard or a morpher."

"She had one on her belt just like the others, it was gold though," Jenna recalled, "and she said she came when she heard my heart cry out to her, what does that mean?"

Conner tapped his finger on the armrest of his chair as he thought it over, his mind racing at what he imagined Dr. O's use to when he was in this situation.

"No clue," he said smiling, "but we'll figure it out, for now just go rest."

Jenna nodded and ran off, Alpha looking at Conner.

"You do have a clue about what that meant don't you?" he asked the red ranger.

"I think I do, but I don't want to jump the gun," Conner said standing up, "For now I want you to call Dr. Rawlings and Dr. Mercer and have them make a new morpher."

"Will do Conner."

"Oh and Alpha," Conner said stopping him, "tell them to make it gold."

A/N: the song that Jenna was singing was part of a song I'm attempting to write for her, not yet completed. That also happens to be the first song I've tried to write. Anyway happy Halloween and may the power protect you all.
