CH 10. AERIAL
Kyle fell from the top of the building and fast, cursing himself for jumping in the first place.
At least I'll die with my parents. I did my best…
Suddenly his wristband beeped. "Scanning…assessing situation. Suggestion, use the Mega Battle armor flight mode to complete your mission." The computer said.
"Mega Battle?" Kyle asked. After he uttered those words, metallic armor surrounded him, with two blasters on his arms and a clear visor over his helmet.
"Flight mode!" Kyle shouted. The blasters folded back into wings on the backpack of the armor.
"All right!!!" Kyle said, grinning. He swooped down and grabbed the two vials just before they hit the bottom. Blackland and the others watched what happened.
"That blasssssted ranger, how much luck can he have??" Blackland scowled. The rangers blasted Blackland with their blasters from behind while Z used one of her clones to steal the Morphers back.
"No!!" Blackland said, swiping at her and stumbling as his arm went right through her.
"Think fast!" Z clone shouted, tossing the case to the original Z. "Thank you!" She replied, passing them out.
"No!!!" Blackland shouted.
"S.P.D Emergency!" They shouted, morphing. "Okay Blackland, you're not going anywhere. Give yourself up." Sky said, aiming his Delta blasters. Domicile got back up and clutched the diamond case with his pronged hand.
"Sorry rangers, but I have other patients to attend to. See ya." He said, blinding the rangers with a bright flash of light he fired from his eyes. When they could see again, both Blackland and Domicile were gone.
Wes had his hands full with a pack of Mafbots who held him as Saurian took cheap shots at him.
"So, you are the famous red ranger? Pathetic! Where is your partner now huh?" He said, laughing.
Suddenly two red blaster shots struck him in the back. Saurian hissed and turned around to see Kyle with his Mega Battle armor.
"You were saying?" Wes mused. Saurian aimed his arm cannon and fired at Kyle, who fastened his blasters to his arms and slashed the blast away with an X attack.
"Time to end this MY way." Kyle said, putting both of them together to form a giant red beam saber. He leapt into the air and brought it down on Saurian, slicing him.
Saurian crackled with electricity from the attack and fell over. The explosion made the building shake.
Kyle slashed the Mafbots away and helped Wes up.
"Are you alright?" He asked. Wes nodded. "I'll be fine." He said. Saurian got up slowly, limping, holding his badly injured arm. "I'll make you pay for this ranger! Count on it!" He shouted, and with that he disappeared.
The other rangers came downstairs to regroup. "What'd we miss?" Bridge asked. Sky looked at Kyle's new equipment. "Where did you get a Battlizer?" He asked. Kyle blinked. "A battle-what?" He asked.
Wes stepped in. "Lets talk about this later. Where are the vials?" He asked. Kyle held them both up. "Safe and sound." He said. "What about the diamonds?"
Sky shook his head. "No good. They took them and got away." He explained. An alarm came over their Morphers.
"Rangers, report back to the Command Center, immediately." Cruger said. The rangers looked at each other. "You heard the commander." Wes said.
Back in Delta command, Bridge and Dr. Zavier put the final touches on the machine.
"I sure hope this works." Kyle said. Jessica put a hand on his shoulder to reassure him. They took the two vials and put them into separate containers.
"Okay. Here goes nothing." James said, pushing the button. A thick smoke billowed into the tubes. The vials shook slowly until they finally exploded.
The red and yellow fluids began to take shape of man and woman. The machine's light turned green as in complete. James and Bridge opened the doors. Eric and Taylor stepped out.
"Where am I?" Eric said, dusting his red and black clothes off. Taylor looked around, doing the same with her yellow shirt and black jeans.
"It worked! Mom!! Dad!!" Kyle shouted, hugging them with excitement. Both of them blinked and looked at him like he was crazy. "Who are you?" Eric asked.
"Dad…it's me!" Kyle said. He held up his wristband Morpher. Eric looked at it and then at him. "….Kyle, is it really you?" He asked. Kyle nodded quickly.
Wes stepped up. "Howdy stranger." He said to Eric.
Eric saw Wes and his eyes lit up with excitement. "I never thought I'd see you again you son of a gun!" Eric said, hugging Wes like a brother. Both laughed in enjoyment. Kyle hugged Taylor. "I missed you mom."
Taylor smiled. "I had a feeling you would be a ranger one day. I knew I couldn't stop it." She said.
"Welcome back Eric and Taylor." Cruger said, welcoming them. They looked at him, startled for a moment. Kyle stood in the way.
"Hold on guys. He's…my boss, it's a long story. Anyway, these are my comrades. Bridge, Z, Syd, and Sky. We're the Power Rangers S.P.D" Kyle explained.
Eric looked at Sky, and then Wes. "I see you couldn't keep your son from joining up either." He said to him. Wes put a hand behind his head.
"It's what he wanted." He said.
Back on the ship, Blackland wrecked his office in anger. 'I'll rip that pathetic ranger apart with my bare clawsssss." He shouted. Saurian and Domicile stood there, having to take the brunt of his wrath.
"As for you two, doessss your incompetence know no limits???" He slithered. Blackland turned to the pit nearby his throne. He lifted up a small nest with a dozen reptile eggs inside. "Time for my children to rissssse." He said.
After all the explaining and catching up, Eric wandered around the S.P.D command center for awhile.
"Wait up Dad!" Kyle said, running up. Eric turned to look at him. He walked with him down the hall. "I wanted to talk to you about the Quantum Morpher." He said. Eric kept walking while he followed.
"What do you want to know?" He asked.
Kyle took it off and handed it to him."I think it serves you better." He said to his father.
Eric looked at him. "You can forget it. The Quantum Morpher is yours now." He said, pushing it back to him.
Kyle looked down. "I don't think I've earned it yet." He explained. Eric shook his head. "Commander Cruger and Wes both told me about your accomplishments." He said. Kyle rubbed his neck with his hand.
"I think I just got lucky, and the Morpher did tell me what to do." He said. Eric crossed his arms. "If you think you can't hack it anymore, then hand it over." He said, holding a hand out."
Before Kyle could answer, the alarm went off.
"Rangers, report to the Command Center." Cruger said over the intercom. Eric heard him. "Go." He said. Kyle nodded and ran off.
Taylor rejoined him. "He's got a taste for adventure, much like someone I know." She said. Eric didn't answer, he was still concerned about his son not sure of his abilities.
The rangers came in to see a giant robot attacking the city. "It seems Blackland had an ace up his sleeve and now he's using it to raid the diamond centers." Cruger explained.
"What could he possibly want with all those diamonds?" Bridge asked. Cruger turned back to them. "Get to your Zords, and deal with this." He said. They nodded.
"Cadet Myers, you take the 3rd runner and go with them. Sky will guide you with the controls." Cruger ordered. "Yes sir!" Kyle said.
"Ready?" Sky said, holding his Morpher. "Ready!" The others said.
"S.P.D, Emergency!" "Quantum Power!" the rangers shouted, morphing. Kat sent them the Delta runners.
"I've never drove a thing like this before." Kyle said, taking the wheel. Sky drove the red car runner. "It's not too hard. You'll get used to it." He said. The five combined into the Delta Megazord.
Domicile piloted the tentacle robot. "You're finished, rangers." He said, grabbing the Megazord with the finger tentacles and shocking it.
The rangers shook in their cockpit. "I hate when this happens!" Bridge shouted.
Kyle shook most of all. "I think I'm going to be sick." He said. Sky took the controls and broke free of the grip.
The others watched from the screen. "This is bad." Wes said. Cruger shook his head. "I wish the SWAT flyers were fixed." He muttered.
Eric clenched his fist. "Come on Kyle." He said. He was wondering why Kyle piloted that single runner.
Why doesn't he use it?
Domicile used the missiles on the robot's chest to bring the Megazord down. "Time for a booster shot." He said, activating the tentacles and turning them into spikes and stabbing the Megazord.
The power began to drop. Kat looked on the console. "Sir, the Megazord's power is dropping below 20" She said.
"This is not good. How can this be?" He asked.
The rangers fiddled with the controls. "It's not responding!" Syd shouted. "We have to abandon the Megazord." Z said.
Sky clutched the controls. "We can't. We gotta get back up." He said. Bridge tried to work on the auxiliary power. "It's like the Megazord has been injected with a virus." He shouted. "That explains that attack a minute ago." Kyle said.
The controls sputtered sparks out. "We have to get out!" Bridge said. Kyle looked at his wristband. "Wait. I have an idea." He said.
Kyle jumped out of the Megazord and stood before the robot. Domicile looked down at him. "I'll crush you like a bug." Domicile laughed.
"I hope this works." Kyle said, activating the Mega Battle armor. He flew into the air and around the Megazord like a moth to a lantern.
"I'll swat you out of the air you pathetic ranger." He said, slinging the robots tentacles at him. Kyle weaved around and through them.
"Time to cut this meeting short." Kyle said, putting the lasers together to form the giant red laser sword and sliced the tentacles off, right down the middle.
"No!!! How dare you????" Domicile shouted, fiddling with the controls now.
Kyle landed on the ground and placed his blasters back on his arms. "Okay guys, you take it from here!" He said.
"Yes, I got it!" Bridge said, starting up the auxiliary power. The Megazord stood up slowly and aimed at the robot.
"You're charged with conspiring with a known criminal, stealing diamonds, and both performing illegal weapons surgery and piloting a robot without a license. Judgment time!" Sky said, opening his Morpher.
"You can't do this to me. I'm a doctor. I'm bonded." Domicile said. The red X flashed. "Guilty!" The rangers said.
"5 4…2 1, FIRE!!" The Delta Megazord aimed to fire at the robot, when suddenly the ground shook underneath them, sending both Domicile's robot and the Megazord crashing to the ground.
"What was that?" Kyle said, shaking too. Suddenly a loud crumbling sound came up from the ground under the city."
A giant robotic head emerged from underground. A loud shrieking cry like a long lost creature came from it.
"What the heck is THAT thing?" Kyle shouted.
Eric knew what it was.
He finally found me.
