Sasha woke with a start. Sharp pain filled her body. Her body started thrashing uncontrollably as she screamed it pain. What happened? She asked herself.
Calm down. A soothing voice said to Sasha.
She took a deep breath and let her body relax. Soon her vision returned and saw that she was in the infirmary. Horatio was tending to her wounds and making sure she was fine. She saw everyone was unconscious in their own beds, except for Aiden and Nikki, however they didn't look like they were in a much better condition.
"What happened?" Sasha asked.
"Do you not remember?" Aiden asked.
Just as Sasha was about to answer her memories flooded back to her. She remembered fighting the black ranger and losing. She also remembered the vision she saw, the vision of her own death.
"The black ranger-"
"Kicked our asses." Nikki finished.
The pink ranger looked at Zach as Horatio out bandages in him. The girl was worried about the boy she cared about being hurt. She squeezed his hand.
"Please wake up." She said.
Her burst of affection towards Zach did not go unnoticed by Horatio and Sasha who both wondered what that was about.
"Chiron called for a healer from Diablo to help them. Until then we just have to wait." Horatio said.
"This son of bitch just took us all out without breaking a sweat and you just want to sit here and do nothing?" Aiden ranted.
Horatio nodded. "I know it's hard seeing you teammates injured, but we must not rush into things."
Aiden stepped up. His eyes glowed red. "Horatio don't act like you understand, you're not a ranger and you didn't see that guy out there. He hurt Willa...I mean the team."
"Aiden stop being the impulsive male jock for once and listen to reason." Sasha yelled.
"Right now there's only three of us conscious and I don't know about you, but I'm not in fighting shape." Sasha said.
Aiden sighed. His eyes returned to their normal shade. "Okay Sasha. Since you're the smartest here tell us what we need to."
"Wait for this mysterious healer to come, then when we're all ready, we train. We now know his tricks, we can take him, but only together." Sasha said.
"He made me see things. I saw my death, and by the looks of it, it's coming closely." Aiden said.
Sasha nodded. "I was shot in an alley."
"Jesus." Horatio said.
"No a deity much worse. Hades is rising and you're powers as of now can't stop him." Chiron said.
"Gee thanks for the words of encouragement." Aiden said sarcastically.
Chiron sighed. "Hades is about death and darkness. You're going to need light and life to counteract that."
Nikki looked up. "Apollo and Demeter. Out of all the rangers we could've had on our team right now, we need them who's power coins are MIA."
Sasha sighed. "Well we were known for being lucky."
The black ranger stepped into the empty power plant. It was shut down years ago, after a freak accident. Hundreds of lives were lost that day. The black ranger could sense the death in the area.
"Poor spirits, so unrestless. Not able to enter the underworld." He sighed.
He pulled out a dagger and knelt down. He dug the blade into the earth and started to chant. The wind grew stronger and the ground rumbled.
"Don't worry soon everyone will be in the underworld."
"Is this the right place?" Madison asked.
The pink Defenders ranger looked up at the mountain.
"These are the coordinates, unless Alex screwed another thing up." Josie yawned.
"Hey that's my boyfriend!" Tiana said.
Madison shot her glare, "Don't act like you care about him now. Do you think we forgot how you kissed Tyler. Granted he's so hot that he can turn water into steam, but still where is your commitment?"
"He isn't even that hot." Josie said rolling her eyes.
"That's because you have a very unusual type." Madison said.
"I have a type?" Josie asked.
"You know. Tiana is in to sweet boys with a dark side or in Trevor's case more dark side than sweet. I'm into boys that spoil me. And you are into boys who are jackasses." Madison said simply.
"That is so not true." Josie said.
"Owen was a womanizer and Ted was a date rapist." Madison said.
Madison's face went dark when she said Owen's name. It was still too soon to say the name of their fallen ranger. Before Madison could apologize a giant portal appeared. Sasha stood on the other side. She crossed her arms and looked at them.
"Which one of you is the healer? Sasha asked.
"That would be me sweetheart." Madison smirked.
Sasha frowned. She already didn't like Madison's girly girl exterior. "You look like a Barbie reject."
"And you look like Cinderella before you Fairy Godmother gave her a makeover. Trust me you don't want to get into a mean girl contest with me. Now gonna let us in, so I can save your team, or would you rather they die?"
Sasha sighed. She let the girls come in.
"From what I hear wherever you guys go, trouble follows, so please don't break anything." Sasha said.
"Come on it's not our fault we're the popular rangers." Josie said.
Tiana raised an eyebrow. "We are?"
"Of course we're the originals, brought together when the world hasn't seen a ranger team in decade. We're wittier, clever, more in demand, more liked by the viewers." Madison smirked.
"You talk you guys are on some popular TV show or strange fanfiction." Sasha snorted.
Madison smirked. "Why not both."
Sasha led them to the infirmary. She opened the door and let them in. Madison gasped.
"Geez were you guys hit by a bus?" Madison asked.
Sasha sighed. "Don't ask."
"Okay Pinkie you do your healing magic while I go talk to Chiron." Josie said.
Madison walked over to Zach. Nikki looked over at her beggingly. "You can help him right."
Madison nodded. "I'll try." She put her hands to Zach and closed her eyes.
She could sense the pain inside him. Heal. She thought. A pink glow escaped from her hands and lit up his wounds.
Nikki gasped. "You're the second coolest pink ranger ever."
"Second?" Madison raised an eyebrow.
"After me of course." Nikki said.
"You know I think I might like you." Madison smiled.
Nikki sighed. "You shouldn't I'm not a good person."
"Please you can't be any worse than the people in Diablo." Madison said.
"I'm considered the school slut, just because I date a lot of guys, but it's just frustrating becauseā¦"
"I only ever slept with one guy." Nikki sighed.
"And I think I might love him." Nikki said.
"You mean Zach?" Madison asked.
Nikki wiped away her tears. "Don't be ridiculous he has a girlfriend. They've been together since like kindergarten."
"I can look in your eyes and see that you love him. Out of all the people in the room you decided to stand by his side." Madison pointed out.
Nikki began to cry. "I'm so stupid."
Madison put a hand on her shoulder. "No you're not."
"I'm a homewrecker, and a stupid one at that. What did I expect? That he would actually leave Anna for me? She's perfect and-"
Zach gasped when the healing was done.
"What happened the last thing I remember is the black ranger getting my ass kicked. But now I feel great." He smiled.
"Thank the healer." Madison smirked.
Sasha walked up to them. "Guys where's Aiden?"
Nikki realized where he was. "Oh shit."
The black ranger stood in an empty forest. "This will be the perfect place to unleash the gates."
"Hey dickwad." Aiden yelled from behind.
The black ranger turned to see Aiden morphed with his spear.
"Ares what a pleasant surprise. Well not really a surprise you're just as predictable as you were in your past life." He said.
"You're going to pay for hurting Willa." He growled.
Aiden's eyes glowed bright red, so bright it actually shone out of his helmet. The black ranger pulled out his knives.
"Okay then bring it."
Next Time: The Black Ranger threatens to rip the portal to Earth and the UnderworldI know this chapter was probably boring and was short, but it was a filler for what's going to happen in the next chapter. The next chapter should have less drama and more action,
