" Mom, Dad, I have to go now." Jason said as he descended from the stairs, he smiled at his parents who were waiting at the bottom.
" As soon as your fight is over, you promise to come straight home right?" Mrs. Scott asked. Jason nodded his head in assurance.
" I said I'll be coming home, and I will." Jason said, and feeling new tears forming Mrs. Scott embraced her son again.
She tried not to cry for the longest time but now she could not help but let them go. " Promise me you'll take care of yourself." She said as her tears finally started to fall. Jason though held onto his mother for a little while longer before he said another word. Jason could now feel his face grow hot and he could feel tears forming in his eyes, but he was unawares that his tears slowly started to fall.
Sniffling, Jason held onto his mother a moment longer before he reluctantly let her go. Once he did so he looked at his father and they both exchanged smiles.
Jason walked up to his father now, and standing in front of him he stared at his father long and hard and that was when he could feel the tears. He looked away shamefully for crying like this, but it seemed to be beyond his control. They just came out on their own.
Seeing his son cry Mr. Scott embraced him in a strong hug. They both stayed that way for the longest time and as Jason held onto his father he could feel his stomach cringe in nervousness. " I'm proud of you son." Jason's father said as he finally let go of his only son.
Jason wiped his tears away and as he did so he sniffled again before he spoke again. " I'll be home before you know it." Jason said confidently.
" I know you will be." Jason's father said as he stepped aside for his son to get ready to morph. Jason though looked at his mother one more time before leaving. She was crying, but she was still holding back most of her tears.
" I love you mom." Jason said, and with a faint smile his mother whispered back " I know," Jason then watched as his father wrapped his arm around his mother in a comforting way.
" Good luck son." Jason's father said, and stepping back into position, Jason smiled as he whispered a final farewell. And standing up straight, Jason called forth his powers.
" Gold Ranger Power!" Jason called out, and a moment later he disappeared. Once Jason was gone, his mother finally broke down and started to cry...
Down by the park Rocky landed hard onto the ground, he just received a lashing from Golddar, he quickly regained his footing though as Golddar came in for another attack, but Rocky managed to dodge this attack, although he was growing tired, he remained alert and ready, but when he heard Kat cry out in pain he momentarily lost his concentration and that was when Golddar slashed him across the chest and with sparks flying from his suit Rocky got tossed onto the ground once again, this time though, he was not getting up right away.
" Rocky!" He head Kat call out his name as he tried to stand up again, but the pain in his chest was too great. He held onto his chest as he gritted his teeth in pain.
" You stay away from him you big ape!" Kat yelled out as she was being held down. Golddar though ignored her and coming up towards Rocky he took out his sword.
" It's a pity I'm going to have to kill you now." Golddar said darkly, as he got his sword ready, and still unable to stand up, Rocky watched with dread as the sword started to come down for him, he could hear Kat scream in the background. " Rocky, no!"
Rocky closed his eyes as he waited for the blow, but something happened, and instead of feeling the cold steal of the blade enter his body he heard a blast come from behind him.
" Nice try, but you can't finish us off that easily." He heard the familiar voice. Rocky now began to force himself up. " Zack is that you?" Rocky asked as he tried to stand up, Zack came in from behind him as he quickly helped support him in a stand up position.
" Your powers? How?" Rocky asked in a stammer. Zack smirked from under his helmet; as he finished getting Rocky into a standing position on his own he answered his question. " Billy found a way of course. You can always count on Billy." Zack said.
" Guys, help!" Kat suddenly screamed, and that brought them both out of their momentary haze. They both turned around to see Kat being cornered by Cogs.
" Hang on Kat!" Rocky yelled and with Zack taking over his position, Rocky jumped into the air and as he landed he took out a Cog.
Now turning towards Golddar, Zack got into a fighting position. Golddar stared at him darkly,
" So what will it be ex-ranger, do you think you can destroy me?" Golddar taunted. Zack glared at him from behind his helmet and drawing out his Power Ax he got into a fighting position.
" You don't scare me Golddar." Zack said. Golddar laughed at this, " You think so do you? Well let's just see how long you last!" And with that said Golddar and Zack locked weapons.
From out of nowhere Adam heard the Quadra fighters come towards him, and seeing them above Adam was able to dodge out of the way. When he got up he saw them coming back and calling out to Tanya, he warned her. " Tanya, above you!" Adam yelled out and hearing Adam Tanya looked above and seeing the fighters coming back she dogged out of the way when they fired at her.
Once the fighters made their first two rounds at them Adam and Tanya regrouped, standing side but side now they got their weapons ready, with a monster and cogs surrounding them they had no choice but to separate from each other during the fight.
" There's too many of them, Tanya, take care of the cogs, and I'll go after this monster." Adam said and nodding her head Tanya ran off into the opposite direction to begin her attacks on the numerous cogs surrounding her.
The monster that Adam began to fight off against was called The Bomb King; it had various weapons attached to its body and whenever Adam would use his Zeo Pistol or any other weapon for that matter, the monster would stagger back and spark up, and moments later it would recharge it self and then it would send off a bomb attack. Each time he either failed to lay a hit on the monster, or even if he would actually manage to graze the monster with his attacks, the monster would send forth bombs, one if he missed and two if he managed to hit it.
But that was not the worst part, every now and again the Quadra Fighters would swoop around and fire down at him, they always seemed to miss him but it was one too many close calls. And without his weapons having any effect on the monster, but to stall it only, Adam found himself gowing tired from the endless attacks.
" Come on ranger, what else do ya got for me?" The Bomb King asked. Adam glared at the creature from behind his helmet and drawing out his Zeo Blade, Adam got ready to attack, but he stood still momentarily wondering if he should try attacking it in another area.
Just then though Adam saw an arrow come from behind the monster, it hit him in the middle of his back, causing sparks to fly up, the monster cried out angrily as electrical sparks started to flare up around him as he began to recharge itself again.
Adam looked for the source that fired the arrow and his eyes widened in surprise when he saw Aisha and Kimberly in their old power suits coming up from behind, They both jumped in the air and dodging away from the monster they landed next to Adam.
" Guys! How did you get your powers working again?" Adam asked stunned, " Billy found a way, are you okay?" Kimberly asked,
" Yeah I'm fine, but watch out!" Adam quickly yelled out as he pulled them out of the way, just in time to dodge the two bombs that came their way.
" My bow, it did nothing to It." Kimberly said surprised as she regained her footing. " Let me give it a try." Aisha said, " Power Daggers," Aisha called out and as she charged the monster and attacked him the monster lashed out at her and she was quickly tossed back towards Kimberly and Adam, but first she managed to hit the monster, just before it tossed her away.
Once she got back up she watched as the monster recharged itself. " What's it doing?" Aisha asked, " Move out of the way, it's going to fire again." Adam warned them, and a few moments later the Bomb King unleashed two more bombs, and all three of them dashed out of the way.
" Guys, this thing is immune to our attacks," Kimberly said, " We have to find another way." Adam said as he got into a fighting stance again.
" Wait, where's Tanya?" Aisha suddenly asked. Adam looked around and seeing her he pointed off towards the distance. " There she is." Adam said pointing towards her. Aisha followed his direction; she then got her daggers ready. " I'm going to help her." And with that said she dashed off towards Tanya, leaving Adam and Kimberly to face off the monster.
" Alright Kim, you ready to attack it again?" Adam asked as he got his weapon ready to fire.
" Lets get this creep." She replied and pulling out her bow again she fired at the monster once more.
By himself Tommy was facing off with Lord Zedd, who was alone. But to Tommy's surprise Lord Zedd seemed to be a lot tougher than he usually ever was.
" What's the matter Tommy, getting out of shape are we?" Lord Zedd taunted. As Tommy dodged another one of his attacks he regained his footing as he pulled out his sword. " Your going to pay for everything you've done. I'm just getting warmed up." Tommy said, but Lord Zedd only laughed.
" You know it will be only a matter of time before those monsters kill your friends. Their weapons are useless against them and you can thank Jason for that." Lord Zedd said with another laugh.
" What did you do?" Tommy asked as he held his sword at the head. " The monsters are immune to their attacks, and even Golddar is stronger than he usually is, and you know that the only way to defeat any of them is for Jason to show up. His weapons will be the only ones that can kill anything." Lord Zedd explained. " So you better hope he shows up soon." Lord Zedd finished with another laugh.
" What do you want with Jason?" Tommy demanded. " Lets just say I have a bone to pick with him." Lord Zedd said evilly.
" He will never give you what you want." Tommy said. " Oh, I think he will. I really think he will." Lord Zedd said, and drawing out his staff he pointed it quickly at Tommy who immediately dodged the attack, and as soon as he got back up he attacked Lord Zedd with his sword.
When Billy finally showed up he saw Tommy and Lord Zedd attack each other, with Zedd blocking Tommy's attack with his staff, Tommy kept trying to land blows towards Lord Zedd with his sword.
Once Tommy backed away from Lord Zedd after he was hit, Billy came running over towards him, his Power Lance drawn and ready to be used. Hearing him coming, Tommy looked at Billy with surprise. " Billy how did you get your powers back?" Tommy asked.
" It's a long story, are you alright?" Billy asked. " Yeah, so far. But we need Jason." Tommy said as he watched Lord Zedd from the corner of his eyes.
" Jason will be here." Billy assured him as he moved around to face Lord Zedd. Tommy did the same. And as they both got ready to attack Lord Zedd again, Tommy spoke up. " I really hope Jason knows what he's doing…and I really hope he gets here soon." Tommy said.
Billy nodded his head in agreement and calling forth their attacks, they both started to fight off against Lord Zedd, trying to hold him off until Jason arrived.
