"Scientists are still baffled over what happened a few weeks ago," a reporter was saying. "there has not been any Earthquake reports or disappearing water sources and the planet has gone to a deep quiet. Citizens around the globe have gone back to their normal lives, people who have returned to their homes are going by their normal activities."
Staring at the television screen in front of him, Billy wasn't really paying attention to the news. True, everything had gone back to the way it use to, Zedd and Rita had begun their attacks on Earth again, school had jut re-opened and near everyone was back from where they had gone before Angel had decided to practice on the Earth with her magic. Tommy had been released from the hospital a few days prior, he and all of the other Rangers had thought of it rather dirty that Master Vile had ordered Zedd and Goldar to "rough him up a little" after Vile had acquired his daughter, they truly had done more than a little in their roughing up of their friend. Tommy had looked like he had gotten into a fight with a motorcycle gang; all bruised, scratched and scraped up with both arms broken and an ankle near severed from his leg.
"Our leading scientists are also very baffled over the recent show that was seen two nights ago which was seen by everyone in Angel Grove." the reporter on the tv was saying. "Here with me is Mr. Stevens to speak on the spectacle that had all eyes of Angel Grove turned to the sky. Mr. Stevens, what can you tell us of the brilliant light that was seen falling from the sky two days ago?"
"I can't really say much on it," the scientist replied. "we've looked at it from all angles and have used many sources to check out what was seen and..."
Billy didn't want to hear anymore, he too had seen the light that had fallen from the sky but he knew what is was. What, or a better word for what was seen was who it was was Angel returning to the planet in one of her forms surrounded by a reddish-pink energy. She had created a medium-sized crater about two miles from the city of Angel Grove when she had landed, she had been very happy to here that Tommy hadn't given her and her location in her little cave away, but hadn't been too happy about hearing about Tommy's injuries.
Currently Angel had been relocated to a place where they hoped that her father wouldn't find her; with Ninjor in his temple. Smiling to himself, he remembered seeing Angel's face when she had seen their friend and his temple, although it hadn't been the first time that she had seen Ninjor seeing his temple was one she could barely cope with. She had agreed, reluctantly, that she would stay there for her own protection, but had also said that she had better transform into something smaller as the temple was too small for her in her true form. When they had left she had transformed into a small Raven that was perched up on the edge of Ninjor's jar.
"Hello Bih..."
Katherine had not a chance to say her sentence fully as, very suddenly, the ground started shaking violently and a horrible whirring was heard. People were running around, buildings were crumbling and the sky turned black. Billy reached out and grabbed Katherine quickly and with a jump forced them both into the street, the building behind them fell apart, parts of it falling right where they had been staying. Before either of them could do a thing a deafening roar was heard which snapped away their hearing, they both clamped their hands over their ears and yelled loudly in pain and fear.
Ninjor, at first, didn't know what to do, his temple was shaking so violently he could barely stand straight. Looking up he saw the Raven-formed demi-monster that had taken residence in his temple sway back and forth from the candelabra before taking off as it came crashing to the floor. Grabbing a table, steadying himself, he had no choice but to hear the roar from outside. Suddenly he felt hands on him, turning briskly, he saw that the Raven had transformed into the demi-monster ally of his and the Rangers, Angel Irene.
"My father!" Angel screamed. " I know it is, he's come here thinking I'm here!"
"He makes a grand entrance if it is he." Ninjor replied loudly.
Alpha ran from panel to panel, he near got trampled on as the Rangers teleported in, he was frantically trying to get the Command Center in order, the great shaking of the planet had thrown the Command Center offline for a long time and when it had come back on the sensors had been very messed up.
"Alpha!" Aisha exclaimed. "What was that?"
"Aye-yi-yi-yi-yi-yi!" Alpha exclaimed in return. "Master Vile has returned!"
"Rangers!" Zordon called. "You must now go face him, he has set Professor Longnose, Blue Globber, Rito and Goldar on the city."
Angel and Ninjor knew well of Master Vile's sending of four monsters to the city, they could see it through the mist of Ninjor's viewing screen. Globber had already destroyed three buildings, Rito had destroyed two and Goldar was headed for his fourth. Standing beside Professor Longnose, a slenderly muscular monster with an extremely long nose and with horns on his shoulders, he was wearing no shirt, but had on a pair of blue jeans that were held up by a blue belt with a gold buckle, he had a gray beard and long black hair that fell from under a black hat with flames around the hat belt. Seeing the monsters destroying the city infuriated Angel but before she could do anything she felt the hand of Ninjor falling on her shoulder.
"Stay here," Ninjor said. "I must help the Rangers."
"I'll stay here as long as I'm not needed." Angel replied. "But the minute I see trouble I'm there at your side."
Tommy and his gang were on the scene in seconds, their zords at the ready, they had had enough of seeing Master Vile and his crooks destroying the city. The first monster that they attacked was Globber, who proved to be a huge problem as he soon started draining their Ninja Megazord. Before he had drained their zord suddenly a blue hand crashed into him, sending him reeling. Ninjo stood in front of them, shielding them, when Goldar came rushing in he ran at him and swung his staff which caught up against Goldar's chest sending him crashing to the ground. Ninjor was fighting Rito next when Globber got to his feet and began assaulting, draining the energy of the zord in the process, the Shogan Zord.
"We are not going to have an easy win this time!" Rocky exclaimed.
Ninjor fell first to the ground, smoke billowing up from his body, then came the Megazord and Shogan Zords. The buildings were already in bad shape but when the bodies of the zords and the blue Ninja collided with the ground many collapsed, the white and gray smoke that flew up after they dropped to the ground looked like white flags.
"I hope Angel is safe!" Tommy yelled.
"Angel is fih..." Ninjor started to say.
The earth shook so violently, the buildings around them that were already having problems fell to the ground. People screamed, the Rangers and Ninjor heard Master Vile laugh but then everything went quiet. Getting up slowly, looking both ways, they saw the reason for the sudden quiet, and for the violent shaking. Over near a tall building with a dome ceiling with a long, tall point stood a huge and fierce-looking red and black dragon. The dragon's scales shone brilliantly, whiskers of red trailed down from the muzzle and curled around under the jaw, smoke billowed from the mouth. The dragons claws were bright red and the sharp point to the tail was fiery red. The dragons eyes gave away who it was, although they were golden-yellow with extremely tiny pupils they saw emerald-green around the golden-yellow. Rito took one step toward the dragon, he was furious but also very confused, the dragon let him no further before she opened her mouth, letting out a jet of flame. When it hit Rito he howled in pain then crashed to the ground, his body a charred and smoky mess.
"Enough of this destruction!" the dragon roared.
Opening her mouth again, she directed a long strand of bright white lightning at Goldar. It struck him with a clang and made him fall to the ground, his armor was dented horribly and he was smoking. Globber turned at the dragon and then ran towards her, he knew not who she was and did not hear Master Vile yelling for him to stop his charge. The dragon rose up in front of him and with a roar and clack, sliced her clawed front legs on him. He fell hard to the ground, howling in pain. His chest was torn open and blue blood flowed creating a blue river under him. The dragon jumped up and fluttered a distance from him, when she landed she turned fully on Master Vile.
The Rangers and Ninjor had never seen such a thing in their lives, the dragon opened her mouth countless times, spitting out fire, fire balls, water blasts, lightning, lightning balls and a melody of ice at Master Vile. Professor Longnose had been caught many times and had raised his fan up to shield both him and Master Vile, who had grabbed it and thrown it away in a rage. Angel's father must have been really angry for he raised his scepter at his daughter and directed a blast of pink energy at her that swung around her and slapped her unmercifully on the rump. Angel returned the blast with one of her own, a mighty fire and lighting combination that struck her father in the chest. He stood slumped a little from that blast, he laughed at her and waved his hand; Globber, Rito and Goldar stood and went to his side.
"A mighty fine powerful daught I have yes," Master Vile laughed. "but one of disrespect that needs discipline I also have."
Running forward, Ninjor positioned himself in between Vile and the dragon-formed Angel, the Rangers in their zords followed. A combination attacked followed; Rito attacked Ninjor, Goldar attacked the Shogun Zord and the Blue Globber attacked the Megazord. Tommy, who had relocated to his white Falcon Zord, flew over Angel. Angel jumped from behind the fighting six-some and turned towards her father and Professor Longnose. She fired one blast at the pair before the Professor raced forward. She swung her clawed legs at him, missing both times. Jumping up, she tried catching him with all four of her legs and her tail, and missed. Seeing the opportunity, the Professor reached up and grabbed on of her leathery wings and pulled hard. Angel touched the ground and bit at him, catching him in the leg. With a wag of her great, mighty, head she sent him crashing up against her father. With the danger currently disabled she turned to her wing to find that it had been pulled but not ripped, she could still use it to fly and could still transform and use any of her flying forms.
Angel took the short break from being attacked to look at the mechanical vehicles that were fighting near her. The tall zord with a helmet with horns was multi-colored. One arm was blue while the other was black, both legs were red and the torso was black, yellow, red and gray. The whole zord was covered in a metallic armor, looked very strong and powerful. The second mechanical vehicle that she looked at was a little bit taller than the other and to her an ugly mess. Again, the vehicle was multi-colored, one arm being red while the other was blue, both legs red with gold edges, on the chest of the vehicle was a bear head of yellow coloration, the waist bore the head of a frog while the top of the helmet had the head of a crane on it. The face was humanoid, all these forms on the body made the vehicle look funny. A sudden pounding of feet tore her from looking at the vehicles, turning around she saw that Professor Longnose was racing at her, he had his right arm stretched out, his fan was pointed at her.
"You have to be kidding me!" Angel thought to herself.
Pulling her head back, calling on all of her energy, she opened her mouth and shot from it a combination attack of water, fire and lightning. This was the last of her power in her dragon form, in order to have more power she would have to eat volcanic rocks, drink from the coldest of ocean waters and let lightning strike her. The blast hit her opponent and made him fall to the ground, but it did not stop him. He jumped up quick and continued his race towards her. Thinking fast, Angel transformed into the form of an Eagle, a huge red Eagle with yellow-orange talons. Rising up from the ground, flapping her wings, she put enough distance between her and the charging Professor, but she had forgotten that above her flew the white FalconZord. The sound that they made when she crashed into it made all the fighting stop, when both she and the FalconZord fell to the ground in a deafening thud the Rangers, in their tall zord with horns on the helmet rushed forward, they were followed by the other zord and Ninjor.
"Are you alright, Angel?" Ninjor asked.
"Tommy, can you hear me are you okay?" Adam asked.
Adam still was in shock over what he had seen, Angel, not know that she had the FalconZord flying over top of her had shot up in the air and had collided with the zord. Although the Zord was in good shape Angel had some cuts on her that were deep from the metal of the zord striking her delicate body. The FalconZord got up first and perched itself on the ground, they all waited, it seemed like forever, before Angel got up. She had just been knocked dumb by the collision, but one of her legs was horribly cut and she could not use it.
"I'm fine!" Angel said to Ninjor who had wrapped one of his blue arms around her. "Back to business!"
Back to business was not an easy task for her, she had been injured by the zord. Her wings were fine, she could use them, but one of her legs was ripped open, blood flowed from it. Both Angel and the FalconZord flew up at once and turned their attention to Professor Longnose, the Professor, who had raced past her and had ran into a building, ran back with fierce determination. The FalconZord swung in on the monster, Tommy intended to knock him off balance but instead the Professor grabbed his zord and flung it to the side, the sound of metal grating against the buildings was thundering. Angel attempted to do the same to the Professor, she dropped down on him from above and pecked at his face and clawed at him with her taloned feet. The Professor wrapped his arms around her and, she guessed he had forgotten who he was fighting, flung her in the same direction he had thrown the FalconZord.
"Longnose!" Master Vile shouted. "You idiot! You had her and you threw her away!"
"I apologise Master Vile," Professor Longnose said in sorrow. "I wasn't thinking."
"Clearly!" Master Vile shouted back, concern deep in his voice. "Get her and bring her to me for every injury she had you will get twice!"
Angel was the first to get up, followed by the FalconZord. Looking at herself, she saw that the throw had damaged her wing, had ripped it badly. With a sigh, knowning now that she wouldn't be able to fly for a month because it would take that for her wing to heal itself, she transformed into a Tiger with fiery red stripes. This new form was also badly damaged, her back left leg was cut horribly and she had a gash where her wing had been on her shoulder.
"Angel..." Tommy shouted. "are you okay?"
"I'll be fine..." Angel said, she clenched her teeth to hide the pain that she was in after she took a step. Her leg while in the Eagle form hadn't hurt much because she had been in flight most of the fight, but not in her wingless form and having to use it it hurt her a lot.
"Angel look out!"
Holding her back leg up off of the ground, turning on her three good legs quickly, Angel looked and saw that not only Professor Longnose charging at her but the Blue Globber. The Blue Globber was closest so she lunged at him. As soon as she reached him she dug her claws into his body, tearing into his flesh, and snapped her teeth at him. She caught him three times on the shoulder, he would move his head every time she lunged for his neck. Professor Longnose reached out and grabbed her after she had released Globber's shoulder and wrenched her from the blue monster.
"I have her!" the Professor exclaimed.
"No you don't!" Angel roared.
She was quick in her transformations, only took a few seconds to go from her Tiger-form to a snake-form. As soon as she changed forms she turned around, her long, slender and scaled body was too slippery for Professor Longnose to keep his hands on. As soon as she was facing her captive she struck him. Once. Twice. Three times, she had enough venom left over for the Blue Globber who was still howling in pain behind her. When the Professor dropped her and swung around. To her amazement the Blue Globber was not behind her, none of the monsters were any where in sight. Swinging her head in a full 360 degrees, she looked around carefully. No monsters, not even her father, was around. The Zords and Ninjor stood in shock, not moving, Angel thought that they were looking at a monster so she turned around. No monster in front of her, so she turned back around. It was then that it dawned on her that it dawned on her that they were not looking at a monster that had just teleported in; they were looking at her in shock.
"Don't stare to hard," Angel laughed at them. "your eyes might dissolve."
"Your transformation skills are excellent..." Ninjor said in shock.
"Thank you." Angel replied.
"As much as I would love to stand and look and gawk at Angel we do need to get back," Tommy said. "we have quite a lot of re-grouping to do not to mention the city to repair"
