STILL DO NOT OWN!

Thank u for all reviews!


"Guys you know how Zordon told us to take a break while he looks for Tommy?" Rocky said suddenly in the Youth Centre.

"Yeah…"

"Ember's not taking it so well." He told them pointing over to where their youngest member was punching the shit out of a punching bag.

"Ember…..Ember…" Jason called.

"Earphones." Rocky told him.

"Okay…" He walked over and yanked one out of her ear. "EMBER!"

"Ow….what?" She asked him taking the other one out wiping her face and hair with a towel.

"Slow down. You'll burn yourself out."

"No I won't."

"Yeah you will. Come on…come hang with us for a while and stop punishing the punching bag."

She sighed and nodded following him back to the others.

"By the way what is Bulk and Skull yammering on about?" She asked as they walked toward the counter as they kept stating.

"I'm telling you we saw it!"

"You got to be kidding I think you're making this up!" A random kid stated.

"Yeah!" His smaller friend agreed

"Making what up?"

"It was a light in the lake! It was incredible!"

"And inside the light was Zeo Ranger Five."

The rangers looked at each other.

"You guys saw Zeo Ranger Five?"

Ember looked up at Jason.

"Well what was he doing?"

"He was just standing there….staring. The weirdest thing was that….we could see right through him!"
"Creepy…"

"You guys have been out in the sun too long." The kid said.

"Yeah!"

The four rangers went to the corner.

"We should go to the lake."

"Let's talk to Zordon first. Tell the others to meet us at the Power Chamber."

"Right; let's go…"
"You okay?" Rocky asked Ember.

"I'm not getting my hopes up." She shrugged. "I've been through this before and it fucking hurt so right now…I'm not letting myself get worked up…I'm just focused on finding him."

"What do you mean been through this before?"

"Harlequin took Finn. Turned him against us….I was sent away because I became obsessed with finding him and I burnt myself out and ended up in hospital. When I arrived back Evil Finn had sent the rest of the boys into hospital and it was just me and him left standing. The fight was brutal and he nearly killed me…but he stopped himself. I had arrived morphed and I demorphed in front of him because I was so weak. He saw a little kid….a kid that shook him awake when he slept in and could knock him on his ass…. He didn't see an evil warrior as Harlequin proclaimed us; especially me. Apparently I was the 'leader' a complete daughter of evil…but when he looked into my eyes…."

"He saw a friend….a girl….a scared girl. Someone who was scared for his conscience not herself."

"Wow…." Rocky stated.

"I don't want to go through it again."

"I understand."

~POWER CHAMBER~

"Did you get anything on Tommy?"

"Bulk and Skull said they saw Zeo Ranger Five near the lake."

"I'll scan the perimeter of the lake. Watch the viewing globe."

"I don't see anything!"
"I'm not getting a reading! Wait I'm beginning to get something now! I'm picking up a brainwave pattern! It could be Tommy! But wait!"

"What Alpha?"

"The patterns changing!"

"Rangers if these are indeed Tommy's brainwaves then he is in great danger!"
"What do you mean?"

"At the rate they're changing Tommy won't be Tommy much longer." Ember said.

"Zordon we can't let this happen I'm going out there." Jason said.

"I'm coming with you." Kat stated.

"I'm going too." Ember agreed stepping forward.

"Ember you sure?"

"I'm more then sure." She nodded.

"Very well the rest of you must remain here and insist Alpha in tracking brainwaves."
"Right." Adam said and turned to Ember. "Good luck." He told her and she kissed him.

"Just in case I don't come back." She whispered and pulled away nodding at Jason.

"It's Morphin' Time!"
"Zeo Ranger one Pink!"
"Gold Ranger Power!"

"Silver Ranger Power!"
They arrived at the lake. "I don't see anything."
"Keep looking!"

"There has to be something we're missing. Some trace of something that we're overlooking."
"Yeah…don't worry Ember we'll find him."

"Yeah…we've got too Kat." Ember nodded.

"I'll do anything to get him back Ember I promise you." Jason told the teen putting his hands on her shoulders. "I let Tommy down once I will not let it happen again!"
"Look there he is!" Kat shouted as a hologram of Tommy appeared.

"Guys we found him." Jason ran straight toward it.

"Wait something's wrong!" Kat shouted.

"Jason! Stop! Dammit Jason!" Ember said stopping for a second and running after him again.

"Jason it's a trap!" She shouted skidding to a halt beside him.

They disappeared through a portal that was doubling as 'Tommy.'

~POWER CHAMBER~

"Ai yiyi! I just lost Ember and Jason on my scanner!" Alpha shouted.

"What?" Adam demanded.

"I'll contact Billy and advise him to return from the Zeo Zord repair terminal."

Kat teleported in. "I tried to stop Jason and Ember…she just wouldn't let him go in alone!" She said distressed.

"Kat it's okay." Tanya tried to soothe her.

"But now we've lost three of them."

"Wait there is another electrical surge." Adam stated looking at the screen.

"Who was it but someone's following Jason and Ember…wherever they went."

~EMBER AND JASON~

The two on them fell on a dusty floor and Ember sat up; followed by Jason.

"Ember you okay?" Jason asked helping her up and dusting her down.

This made 'King' Tommy frown at the care the big gold ranger showed for the petit and skinny silver ranger.

"I'm fine Jason. I promise you." She looked around and started to panic "Jason where are we….where is this place!" She asked.

"Ember! Ember! Ember calm down!" Jason told her steadying the panicking girl. "Breathe." He told her and she did and nodded her head behind her helmet.

"Okay…Okay…whoa…oh my god…I'm okay."

"You sure?"

"Yeah I'm sure."

"Surrender Gold Ranger. Give up Silver Ranger!"

They spun around. "Tommy!" Ember yelped and stood behind Jason.

This girl was what 5'3 or there about…Jason was pushing six foot…she was going to stand behind him if she wanted.

He basically hid her anyway.

Well?

What would you do if your brother was standing evil in front of you?

"Surrender rangers or fight!" Gasket commanded.

The crowd around them roared.

"SILENCE! Soldiers of the Machine Empire I present to you the Gold Ranger and the Silver Ranger!"

They booed.

"What have you done to Tommy Gasket?" Jason demanded.

"Man I really hope help is on the way." Ember said looking up at Jason.

"I won't let anything happen to you." He promised. "Just stay close to me."

She nodded. "Okay."

"Tommy what's wrong with you?" She shouted.

"You pathetic Ranger! Do not take that tone of voice with the king."
"The king? The hell?" She said to herself and looked up at Jason.

"Yes I am the King of the Machine Empire!"

"Oh no…"

"And as King! I will no longer tolerate the evil Power Rangers? You, are, finished Ranger!"

"Tommy snap out of it!" Ember shouted running forward but was blasted back by a force field.

"Ember! Ember you alright?"

She nodded getting up.

"Let the battle begin!"

"Wait!" Jason shouted. "At least let Ember go! Dammit Tommy she's barely sixteen….if we're the evil ones why am I trying to save my friend. For Gods sake at least let her go!"

"No!" Ember yelled. "I'm not leaving you! We're a team Jason. Partners. If one of us fights then so does the other."
"Ember…" He said to her.

"I'd rather go down fighting with you then watch you get destroyed knowing I could help the outcome!"
Slowly he nodded. "Are you sure."

"Absolutely."

He nodded too. "Then we fight together!"
"Enter the ring!"

The monster entered slowly through one of the arches.

"Let's go rangers!"

Ember looked at the sky. "Dominus give me strength." She said and looked at Jason. "Give us strength."

They didn't know that at the Command Centre they were watching through the viewing globe.

Tanya had her hand over her mouth, Kat almost looked like she was about to cry. Rocky had a grave face and Adam was pacing the floor hands behind his head glancing at the screen every few seconds.

This monster was fast and that's by Ember's standards. This girl thrived on being fast the kid was 5'3 she didn't have a whole lot of upper body strength!

"You'll never win Gasket!"

"We'll see! Destroy them Eltor!"

The monster went back to knocking them around the arena and once shoved Ember against the wall were she hit her head and collapsed unconscious against the ground.

"EMBER!" Jason yelled and dodged another hit.

Back on earth Adam had to sit down and stared at the Viewing Globe hands behind his head as he stared in shock.

"NOW YOU SEE WHAT YOU'VE DONE!" Jason shouted and kicked away Eltor and stared up at the brainwashed Tommy and Gasket.

"She is sixteen! Sixteen and we're the evil ones? That's your sister you PRICK!" He shouted before Eltor attacked again.

'King' Tommy looked over at the slumped form of the silver ranger…Ember….

This…monster knew everything Jason was gonna do. Just like it had Ember he thought…only Tommy could…

"That's it! You transformed Tommy's power into this thing didn't you Gasket?" Jason shouted.

"I have no idea what you're talking about." The male robot told him.

"Tommy…bro are you in there…" He shouted to the robot.

"I am not…"

"Bro is that you?" He asked.

"I AM NOT!"

"Good then you lost Tommy's powers! He-ya!" He attacked Eltor and managed to destroy the monster.

"Curses!"

"Your plan failed Gasket now return Tommy to normal!"

"Who do you think you are?"

"Listen to me Tommy you are not their king! You're my friend!"

"I guess I have to take care of this villain myself!"

"Tommy!" A voice shouted and they looked over. Ember had gotten up though unsteadily she was up on her feet and glaring from behind her helmet. "You idiot getting captured. Making me have to go up against a monster who spurted poisonous vapours then puke my guts out…make me have to lie to mom about your wear-abouts, making me cry because I'm so worried about you and kick the crap out of the punching bag in the youth centre….Making me remember the last time one of my brothers were brain-washed….and now nearly having my head spilt open by a giant monster…all because you didn't have your guard up you prick! But….but… DAMMIT TOMMY I WANT MY BROTHER BACK!" She shouted a sudden burst of energy ran through her and she joined Jason's side. "I just want you back…"

'King' Tommy shook his head. "Liar! This will be your final battle rangers! I will rid your evil from this world!"

"She's up." Rocky stated to Adam who had refused to look but now stared intently at the screen.

"And she's pissed." Adam finished for his best friend.

"Welcome to your doom!"

"Don't do this Tommy! Come on bro they've got you brainwashed."

"You have to snap out of it!"

"It's time to rid the power rangers."
"You're impossible." Ember stated clenching her fists.

"You've got to listen to us! I'm your friend!"

"And I'm your sister! TOMMY PLEASE!"

"Tommy…" The 'King' stated.

"Yeah that's right Tommy! You're a Power Ranger just like me!"

"You're my brother!" Ember shouted.

"Why can't I remember who I am…"

"Do not listen to them my King. They are tricking you. Especially the little one. She is a master of trickery and treachery!"
"No Tommy he's the one tricking you!"
"Don't fall for it sire. Concentrate your energies you know what has to be done."

"Yeah…you're right Gasket."

On earth Adam turned to the others. "He responded to Ember and Jason when they called his name."
"We have to find a way to break into that dimension and his hold on him."

"That's it!" 'Tommy' shouted.

"I will not fall for this! I have seen the evil you have done and it's time to wipe out the Power Rangers once and for all."

"You'll never get away with this Gasket!" Jason shouted.

"Our king challenges you to a battle right here and now."

"Why don't you go follow the yellow brick road Gasket and go to the Wizard of Oz and ask for a heart! Because you fucking need one you oiled up asshole!" Ember shouted.

"…You must fight our king!"
"I won't fight him!"

"Neither shall I!"

"You can't force us!"

"Then you will be destroyed!"

"I am ready Gasket!"
"Positions! Let the battle begin!" Gasket announced as Tommy appeared in the arena.

"Let's go!"

"Tommy don't do this."

"I will bring an end to the Power Rangers. Starting with you two Gold and Silver Ranger."

They started to circle each other.

"Oh man…"

"Ai yiyi Rangers! What are we going to do?" Alpha asked loudly back at the Command Centre.

"This is unbelievable." Rocky stated.

"What can Jason do he has got to defend himself…."

"And Ember will fight Tommy. If she could Finn the way she did right Zordon?" Rocky said.

"Correct Rangers."
"Gasket seems to have brainwashed him into thinking we're his enemies!"

"Then we have to find a way to show him the truth."
"But the only way you can do that is if you were in that arena and we have to make him remember who his true friends are."
"Right. We have to figure out a way to make him remember."

"And we better do it fast or everything will be lost."

Ember and Jason were having a bad time.

Neither wanted to attack Tommy but neither was willing to be a ragdoll.

Jason was trying to keep the attention of Tommy from Ember since the girl already had some kind of injury.

"Tommy you've got to listen to us!"

"No!" Tommy shouted and attacked only to be cut off by Ember who swiped at his leg.

"I don't want to fight you bro!" Jason told him.

"And I don't want to hear anymore of your lives."
"You can't win Gold Ranger!" Tommy smirked. "And you are just pathetic Silver Ranger!"
"And you're a prick when you're evil Tommy." Ember told him.

"Zordon." Billy said on earth. "Is the video symbol strong enough to follow it to the source?"

"I can't stay for sure. It might land you in another dimension and you'll never find your way back."

"Well I'm willing to take that chance." Tanya said.

"Ember needs some sort of medical attention. She's running on fumes and Tommy will kill her in his present state. I'm going too." Adam agreed.

"We have to find a way to get in there."

"We're running out of time." Rocky stated.

"What do we do when we get there?"

"Tommy's memory of your friendship is his only chance."

"You must leave from the point of the entry way."
"You guys should morph and teleport there. I'll try to get a lock on." Billy stated.

"Right. It's Morphin' Time!"

"Zeo Ranger One Pink!"
"Zeo Ranger Two Yellow!"
"Zeo Ranger Three Blue!"
"Zeo Ranger Four Green!"

They teleported to the beach beside the lake.

"Alright we're ready!"

"Oh no we've lost the lock!" Alpha's voice screeched.

"But…we have to reach Ember, Jason and Tommy somehow."

"Oh we have to get that lock again!" Alpha stated.

"This can't be happening I just had it a second ago."

But on the viewing globe the rangers were transported away from their sight.

"It worked! Billy you did it!"
"But I didn't Alpha. I didn't do anything….but somebody did."
"I wonder who could have transported them…

~ARENA~

Ember was on the floor fighting to stand up but she really couldn't find the energy and Jason wasn't far from going either.

"Tommy listen!" He pleaded just as the rest of the rangers showed up.

"Adam!" Ember said fighting to sit up.

He kneeled beside her and helped her sit up. "Are you oaky?"
"I…I'm exhausted."
"The rest of the rangers!" Tommy proclaimed.

"Jason! Are you okay?" Tanya asked.

"Adam will she be okay?" Rocky asked his green clad friend.

"I don't know…I think so…I mean I hope so…"
"I'll be fine." Ember said standing up leaning on Adam for support.

"They've done something to Tommy and he thinks we're his enemies."

"Now I'll destroy your entire evil gang!" Tommy told them smugly.

Ember was barely standing at this point. "Tommy please." She weakly pleaded.

"Listen to me Tommy. Look at me…everything we've done…everything we've been through. You're the one who taught me to ride a bike. You got dad to let me get martial arts lessons because dance wasn't cutting it for me. You would come in and read to me when I was sick even though you were told stay away because you'd catch it but you did it anyway because you didn't want me to be alone…It was your guitar I played for the first time when you tossed it away because you couldn't get your hand movements right! And you're the one who pushed me to pass my exams for that scholarship…" She knees buckling Adam supporting her. "You're my brother Tommy. Not the leader of an Empire…you're my brother, the former green and white ranger and the current red ranger….just like I'm the former Black Zaxley Ranger… you helped us defeated Citius…for the love of God REMEMBER!" She shouted pleading with her brother.

"Tommy we're not evil." Jason stated.

"Prepare to be destroyed."

And that's it….Ember started balling. Tears rolled down her face.

"You stubborn asshole!" She shouted sad and angry.

Mostly angry…

"There must be a way to get through to him."

"Tommy no it's us!" Kat shouted.

"I do not know any of you!"

He attacked and they were fighting again.

"Are you sure you can fight?"

"He's my brother Adam…I have too."

Tommy had all of the rangers on the ground expect Ember in the space of three minutes.

"You're turn." He stated going into a fighting stance.

He attacked his moves precise against her sloppy dodges and kicks.

But he spiral kicked her back and she was down screaming in pain hitting her head off the ground again.

"EMBER!"

Jason attacked Tommy but was sent flying back where the rangers were either standing or sitting against the wall hurt.

"I don't know what else to do." He said.

"Ember won't last much longer." Adam stated checking her. "If she doesn't get to Alpha and Billy…." He didn't want to say it.

It made him sick.

"There's nothing you can do!" Tommy announced.

"I have an idea." Kat stated.

"This out to be amusing."
"There's only one thing left to do." Kat said standing up. "Zeo One Power Down!"

She demorphed.

"Huh?"

"Kat are you sure you know what your doing?"
"He has to see us." She said. "To be confronted with the face of his real friends."
"Oh right…Ember you think you can stand for this?"
"Um…Maybe…can I get some help?"

Instantly Rocky and Adam helped the girl up one of her arms around each of their shoulders.

"Do not try to deceive me!" Tommy shouted and ran towards Kat ready to punch her but froze unable to finalise the blow.

He put it down but went up again and she hugged him. "Tommy don't do this please…it's me Katherine."
"Katherine…"
"Look…look at your friends…your sister look at what Gasket made you do Tommy. There's a real chance she'll die Tommy."

"Die…"
"Don't listen to them!" Gasket stated.

"He's stated to remember I think it's working guys.."
"Katherine…" Tommy whispered again. "What's going on…I don't remember anything…I don't understand I feel like I know you but everything is just fuzzy… uh NO!" He shouted and she hugged tighter.

"You're a power ranger you're evil you…breed destruction wherever you go!" He started struggling.

"That's right sire.."
"Come on Tommy." Ember whispered.

"Destroy her!" Gasket shouted.

"Tommy don't do it! Gold Ranger power down!" Jason powered down into his civilian form. "Tommy Prince Gasket has tricked you. We're your friend's man…and that ranger right there…" Jason pointed at Ember being supported by Adam and Rocky. "Is your baby sister…and she's hurt bro…badly…if you don't snap out of it soon…Ember's not gonna make it."
"This has to work." Rocky stated.

"Yeah. Let's get with it."

"Zeo rangers! Power Down!"

The four did.

Ember was in worse shape than they realised. She was pale and clammy her skin glistened with a layer of cold sweat. Limp once beautiful and glossy curls fell flat on her face mixed with what was a mixture of sweat and dried blood indicating she had cut her head when she was knocked unconscious a while back.

"Jason's right…Tommy please….we're here to help you…" Tanya said gently and the boys walked Ember forward.

"Please Tommy…." She panted. "Please remember me…" She was in tears barely able to form the words.

"I don't know why but I feel like your telling me the truth…" Tommy stated as Kat gently let go of him.

"Is it possible that everything Gasket told me about you was a lie? I'm so mixed up I don't know who I can believe."

"Try and think of all the things we've been through together."
"NO!" He pushed them back and they scrambled back. "What is wrong with me?"

He dropped to his knees. "I don't understand!" He shouted.

"Come on Tommy!"

"You can't fool me!" He pointed his Zeo Pistol at Kat. "Don't move rangers!"
"Tommy I know your in there."
"Tommy please!" Adam shouted.

"I don't know what you're talking about!"
"Come back to us." Kat put her hands on the pistol and lowered it down.

"It's okay."

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING!" Gasket shouted. "REMEMBER YOU ARE THE KING HERE! FIGHT!"

He transported into the arena.

"THEY ARE YOUR ENEMIES YOU FOOL DESTORY THEM!"

Tommy spun to face Gasket. "I don't think so Gasket! Zeo Five! Power down!"

"No…"

"You're my enemy I'm leaving with my friends."

"We'll see."

They tried to teleport out but it wouldn't let them.

"Think I'd let you get away that easily? Think again! Now for a little audience participation! Monsters! Join me!"

They all teleported into the arena to face the rangers.

"Guys Ember's not going to last much longer…." Rocky told them.

Tommy looked over at his sister. "Oh man…Ember…"

"Guys! Lets do it! It's Morphin Time….wait…what?"
"My force field is blocking your morphing powers! You made a terrible mistake turning against me and demorphing it has cost you dearly! Goodbye power rangers!"

Just then the force field shattered.

"Wait what happened?"
"It can't be!"

"Lets get out of here."
"You mess with one ranger you better be ready to take on the whole team!"

"If anything happens to Ember I swear to god I will hunt you down Gasket!" Jason threatened.

"We'll meet again Gasket."

They teleported out of the arena and into the Command Centre.

"Put Ember on the recovery table and I'll run a scan."

They did and in a few minutes Billy was frowning. "I don't believe it?"
"What…is she okay?"
"I'm pretty sure she's going to be fine…most of this is dehydration and a small bang to the head. A few stitches and a good sleep and she'll be fine."

Adam let out a sigh of relief as did Tommy. "Oh thank god…"

Adam looked at Embers not sleeping face.

He had thought he was going to lose her.

And it made him sick.

But Ember had pulled through.

Then again she always did…..

~TWO DAYS LATER~

Ember was in the Youth Centre reading a book when arms snaked around her waist.

"Hey there." She stated.

She turned in his arms and was met by a kiss.

"Well what was that for…"

He rested his forehead on hears.

"Just never leave me again."

"Hey." She drew him closer if that were even possible. "I'm not going anywhere any time soon."
