The door in the ceiling opened and a ladder dropped down, Elgar's face came into view

"Climb!" cried Elgar, Jason stood arms folded over his chest

"And if I don't?"

"Then some Piranhatronns will come down and get you out the hard way" Jason thought Kim's idea seemed like a good one, try and escape once you are off the ship, if Tommy and the others were on their way then all he had to do was evade capture until they found him. Jason sighed and started climbing the ladder out of the bilge, he wasn't going to find Kim or escape if he stayed. "A wise idea" said Elgar as Jason reached the top.

As soon as he was out two Piranhatronns grabbed him, Jason instinctively started to fight, more Piranhatronns came, one got a lucky blow in that winded him and caused him to fall to his knees.

"You have a lot of fight, good" said Divatox in a low voice, a Piranhatronn came forward and put Jason's wrists in shackles giving the end of the lead to Elgar who laughed as Jason got to his feet, a cloak was thrown at him

"You go nowhere without me, power puke!" he cackled at him, several Piranhatronns were preparing to leave the ship

"Your overgrown hamster ain't lookin' so hot." Said Elgar to Divatox, scratching his head

"No! He must live long enough to open Maligore's sacred temple door" cried Divatox almost having a toddler type melt down, an alarm started ringing "Now what?"

"This is impossible! Our radar is detecting five human life forms approaching the island!" Rygog reported

"I knew they wouldn't let me down, Divatox." Said Jason defiantly trying to move forwards, Elgar shoved him back

"I have to get rid of those Power Rangers!" shouted Divatox picking up the phone on a console

"Yeah, they're gettin' on my nerves." Laughed Elgar

"Hi, Rita. D here. Sorry to wake you. I forgot about the time change. Now listen. I know you've had some experience in this matter. I need your advice. How do I get rid of the Power Rangers?" Divatox said down the phone, Jason looked on and thought 'get rid of us, when hell freezes over' "Thanks for nothing." As she slammed the phone down

"What was her answer?" asked Jason baiting Divatox "I am sure Rita's answer is get out now while you still can!"

"Look power boy, you will be tossed into the volcano for my Malagore to feed apon, nothing will stand in my way!" Divatox pointed at him "And if we find the others I'll toss them in too!"

"Uh huh, well I think my five friends may have something to say about that" smiled Jason

"Elgar bring power boy" said Divatox storming off, Elgar pulled Jason along by his bound hands nearly making him fall over

"Oh yeah she doesn't like you" crowed Elgar to Jason leading the way off the bridge

Kim on the beach

"What are you doing?" cried Kim as some masked people grabbed her "Stop it! Let go of me! Stop it!"

"She should have better camouflage."

"What should we do?"

"We could rescue her." Bulk and Skull looked at each "Or enjoy the beach" they shrugged and turned around, before they could sit down another group of masked natives were waiting.

Kim was pulled into the jungle by two natives but surrounded by many more, she tired pulling herself away but their grip was too strong and she was too weak from the swim up from the ship. A short distance later she was bought into a camp not unlike a native American camp, another native picked up her legs and she was laid onto a stretcher

"What are you doing?" Kim cried panic rising a little in her, she had no powers and no Jason to help her, she felt vulnerable and defenceless. They started tying her wrists above her "Let me go!" they carried on tying her legs, the next thing Kim knew they picked up the stretcher and everyone started walking a in procession march through the jungle. Realising she wasn't get out of this bit on her own her thoughts turned to Jason; she hoped he hadn't been hurt by Divatox for helping her along with Bulk and Skull, escape from the ship. He was strong and Kim knew deep down he would fight to find her again.

On the way to the temple

"Come on! I haven't got all day!" screamed Divatox from the front of the troop

"Oh, man." said Adam from a place on the ridge looking through his binoculars, he moved away

"Where is it? My feet hurt." Protested Rygog

"Stop complaining. We're almost there. Wimp." Mocked Divatox

"Move it, prisoner" roared Elgar pulling Jason into a clearing by the temple, chanting can be heard in the trees, it was getting louder "I don't like the sound of that." Said Elgar nervously, the natives started to appear from the trees "Come to think of it, I don't like the looks of it either."

"Hey, the little Power Geek's back" came Divatox's shrill voice at seeing Kim bought out tied to the stretcher. Kim caught sight of Jason, she could have sworn her heart leapt from her chest at seeing him unharmed. Jason likewise smiled at Kim relived to see her in one piece, they may be captives again but at least they were together for whatever came next.

"So, you want a fight, huh?" said Elgar taking a stance to attack if necessary.

"No, no, no. Wait, wait!" said Divatox urgently waving her hands "Those are the Malachians, guardians of Maligore. Get the wizard. Bring him." She was flapping her hands around

"OK. Release the wizard!" called Elgar to some P near the back of their troop, the cage holding Lerigot was opened and he was dragged towards Divatox

"Would you hurry up" huffed Divatox "Here. Do it, wizard. Spin your magic." Ordered Divatox handing him his wand

"Lerigot..." said Yarrin shaking her head

"Move it, fur ball." Ordered Elgar, Lerigot held his wand up and closed his eyes, a wind of golden dust came out of his wand, it moved towards the door of the temple, once there it opened "The little guy packs a punch!"

"Give me that!" Divatox snatched the wand back "What a rush! That's right, bow to me, you little peons." The malachains all dropped to the floor and were bowing, Kim and Jason looked aghast at each other "I love being queen. All right, come on, everybody. We've got a wedding to get to. Here comes the bride!" cried Divatox as she pushed her way through" Watch it, shorty." Shoving Lergiot to one side

"Get going. Come on!" ordered Elgar

"Warriors, bring the others." Commanded Rygog

"Move it." Said Elgar to Jason, he followed Divatox dragging Jason in, he looked back as best he could to see Kim

Inside the temple

"I like it. I love it, I love it." Said Divatox happily moving from the corridor to the main temple hall "Oh, the steaming skulls - perfect! Put her down over there." commanded Divatox pointing to an area near what looked like a well hole as the stretch with Kim on was bought in

"Come on!" cried Rygog to the Piranhatrons who moved around the room

"Don't move." Elgar to Jason sternly

"The lava will have to go, but we'll do all our entertaining here. Of course, you won't be around to see it. All right! It's time to feed my future husband! Prepare the humans first!"

"On your feet!" Rygog ordered to Kim as she was untied and pulled to her feet by more Piranhatrons

"We can have the Liarians for dessert. If anyone knows a reason why we two should not be joined in holy matrimony, shut up!" screamed Divatox loudly making everyone fall silent.

Several Piranhatrons bought Kim and Jason together, they pushed them so there backs where together

"Hey you ok Kimmie?" asked Jason concerned trying to get a look at his girlfriend.

"Fine now I have seen you" smiled Kim as the Piranhatrons began tying rope around them

"I don't see how we are getting out of this one" sighed Jason

"I think Divatox has underestimated our friends" smirked Kim as their wrists where chained above their heads

"Give it too the bad guys to do that" agreed Jason. The slack was being taken out the rope forcing them to move closer to the well that was in the centre of the room

"I don't fancy being roasted" joked Kim, at the edge they both climbed up onto the lip of the well

"You can be my pancetta" came back Jason

"Shut it both of you!" shouted Elgar "Get them up!" with a suddenness they went from standing on the edge to swinging in the air and being taken higher above what they now could see was a volcano
"Maligore, great flame of destruction, it is I, Divatox, your one and only true soul mate. This moment has been long in coming, and now I bring you two perfect specimens to seal our matrimonial pact. Awake and feed upon their purity and strength. Come forth and let evil twist their souls! Be free again and join forces with me!" Before Divatox could say more a commotion was heard

"Hey, did we miss the party?" yelled Tommy as he entered the hall

"Who invited you?" said Divatox angrily

"We did" answered Kim, everyone looked at her and Jason "Rangers, this is Divatox." Said Kim looking right at her "Divatox, this is your worst nightmare."

"Hah! Lower them into the volcano."
