Kyoya stood outside the apartment building waiting for Alex. They were going to go check on Sandra again. Trent had left the day before and still hadn't returned. Kyoya expected the other rangers to go around looking for him at any moment.
"Hey," Alex greeted as she came out. Kyoya nodded and began to lead the way to the warehouse. "Heard anything from Trent yet?"
"Nothing. I haven't seen him yet," Kyoya answered.
"I really hope he's alright. He did go to Mesogog's base alone. I've been starting to wonder if we should have let him go all alone. If he ran into Mesogog there's no way he made it out without getting hurt," Alex fretted.
"Trent can take care of himself," Kyoya reminded her. "What we should worry about is if Sandra will attack us or not."
"Speaking of which, you don't seem to be limping anymore," Alex observed.
"I told you it was nothing," Kyoya replied with a small growled. True he wasn't limping anymore but his leg still hurt.
They stayed silent the rest of the way to the warehouse. They crept cautiously to the entrance, thinking they might hear something like before but there was only silence. Kyoya and Alex nodded to each other before heading inside. They were surprised to find the room empty. They began to look around for Sandra but Kyoya never found her. That's odd. Where is she?
Kyoya met up with Alex back outside the warehouse. "Did you find Sandra?" he asked.
"No, and I looked everywhere in there," Alex answered. "Where could she be? She said she'd be staying here." Her eyes then widened. "What if she's in her ranger form and attacking the other rangers?"
Kyoya opened his mouth to respond only to be cut off by a voice. "I wouldn't worry about them and worry about yourselves." Kyoya and Alex looked to see Sandra standing a ways off. Kyoya narrowed his eyes. Something's different about her.
"Sandra? Where were you?" Alex asked.
"You know, you shouldn't walk around here alone," Sandra growled, ignoring Alex. "You never know who you might run into."
"S-Sandra?" Alex stammered, taking a step back. Kyoya clenched his teeth.
"We don't want to fight you, Sandra. We want to help you," he said, trying to get through to her.
"You're the ones who need help," Sandra growled and she attacked. Kyoya and Alex ducked away from her attack. Alex stared at her in shock.
"What are you doing Sandra?" she demanded. "This isn't like you!"
"It's no use Alex! She's been taken over!" Kyoya said. "She won't listen!"
"Then what do we do? We can't fight her!" Alex questioned.
"It's true we can't fight her," Kyoya admitted. "But the rangers can."
"But we can't call them! Sandra will get us before that happens!" Alex pointed out.
"I'll hold her off while you call the rangers," Kyoya replied.
"Kyoya you can't! You'll get yourself hurt!" Alex protested.
"You have a better idea?" Kyoya countered.
"Good point, just be careful," Alex warned as she pulled out her phone.
"Are you two done babbling over there?" Sandra asked.
"Alright then," Kyoya began. "You want a fight? Then you've got one!"
"Fine by me. Maybe you'll be a challenge this time," Sandra sneered, leaping at Kyoya. Kyoya blocked several punches and kicks, but then Sandra ducked low tripped him, making him fall on his back. Sandra then threw another punch but Kyoya caught it. Sandra tried to punch him with her other hand but he blocked that one too.
"Hurry up, Alex!" Kyoya growled as he threw Sandra off of him and got to his feet.
"I'm trying!" Alex replied. "Conner and Ethan didn't pick up! I'm going to try to get a hold of Kira!"
"Do it fast!" Kyoya snapped as he avoided another attack from Sandra. He tried land a kick of his own but Sandra caught his foot and threw him to the ground. He staggered to his feet.
"Kyoya! I got a hold of Kira! The rangers are on there way!" Alex said.
"Like they can help you!" Sandra snorted. "They can't beat me!"
"Sandra! Snap out of it!" Kyoya said, trying to get through to her. Sandra ignored him and charged in. Kyoya leaped out of the way and landed beside Alex. He got up to see Gingka, Madoka, Kenta, Tsubasa, Yu, and Benkei run up with Conner, Ethan, Kira and Dr. O.
"This happened sooner than I thought," Dr. O commented.
"What's gotten into Sandra?" Yu asked.
"She's turned. Mesogog has assumed full control," Dr. O answered, darkly.
"How do we snap her out of it?" Tsubasa questioned.
"We can't without the missing piece of her gem," Ethan replied.
"We just have fight her. Ready?" Conner said, pulling up his morpher.
"Ready," the other three copied him.
"Dino Thunder! Power Up! Ha!" they all exclaimed as they morphed. Sandra rolled her eyes.
"Please, you think I didn't know you'd come? I brought some back-up of my own," she said, snapping her fingers. As soon as she did that some tyrannodrones appeared as well as the White Ranger Clone.
"You've got to be kidding me!" Kira sighed.
Sandra then morphed and walked up beside the clone. "Keep them busy," she ordered. The clone nodded and led the tyrannodrones in a charge toward the rangers. Gingka, Madoka, Kenta, Tsubasa, Yu and Benkei ran over to Kyoya and Alex, away from the large fight.
"What do we do?" Kenta asked. He froze when Sandra turned on them.
"Yu, run!" Tsubasa ordered.
"But what about you guys?" Yu asked.
"We don't have time for this! Benkei, take Yu and get out of here!" Kyoya ordered in a growl.
"Yes Kyoya!" Benkei said.
"Take Kenta and Madoka too!" Gingka said. Kenta and Madoka ran after Benkei, who was carrying Yu away.
"Put me down! I want to stay and help!" Yu yelled, but Benkei didn't let him go.
"If you had any sense, you'd run too," Sandra growled.
"Sandra! Please stop!" Alex pleaded. Sandra ignored her and charged at them.
"Look out!" Gingka exclaimed as he dodged out of the way, followed by Tsubasa and Alex. Kyoya, however, stayed put and grabbed Sandra, holding her in place.
"Sandra! You've got to stop! Open your eyes!" he shouted.
"My eyes are open!" Sandra snapped, breaking free from Kyoya's grip and grabbing his right arm. She began trying to bend it a strange way, and Kyoya clenched his teeth and shut his eyes tight in pain.
"Argh!" Kyoya exclaimed as he heard the crack of bone and an intense pain in his arm. Sandra then let go of him and knocked him away. Kyoya laid on the ground, holding his arm in pain.
Gingka and Tsubasa tried to stop Sandra but they were easily knocked away. Sandra charged in for another attack when some lasers came out of nowhere and knocked her backward. Everyone turned to see Trent in his ranger form charging forward.
"Leave them alone!" Trent growled.
Sandra growled in frustration. "We'll be back!" she said before vanishing along with the clone and the tyrannodrones that had not yet been defeated.
"Trent!" The group ran up to him, except for Kyoya, and all the rangers powered down. "You came at just the right time," Conner said.
"Where were you?" Kira asked.
"I'll tell you later," Trent promised.
Alex went over to Kyoya. "Are you alright, Kyoya?" she asked.
"Do I look alright?" Kyoya snapped, still holding his arm.
"Let's just get back, then Trent can tell us where he's been," Dr. O said, giving Trent a hard stare.
Gingka and Tsubasa went over to Kyoya and each grabbed one of his arms, trying to help him up, but then Kyoya growled in pain when Gingka touched his right arm and they backed away.
"I think something's wrong with his arm," Gingka stated.
Kyoya glared up at his rival. "You think?"
"Let's get back to the B-Pit and I'll look at your arm," Alex said, and she grabbed Kyoya's left arm and got him to his feet. Kyoya felt a slight pain but he didn't let it show. I can't be as bad as it feels, he thought.
"Now lets go find Benkei, Madoka, Kenta and Yu," Tsubasa said as they all headed off.
