Shout outs
zeopurple: Oh they were. I'm glad you like my choice! I tried hard to throw people off the track, make it difficult for them to tell who I was going to pick. Kat will still be in the story periodically, depending on how I can write her in. Thanks for your review! I'm so glad you're not really disappointed with the new Pink Ranger! Here's Chapter 29.
PrettyDiva: I'm so glad you liked this chapter! I was totally afraid everyone would flame me for my ranger choice! How did you know? I tried to throw in twists to make people unsure of who was going to be the next Pink Ranger. That's an interesting idea. Creating another color for Kat. . . I'll have to give that some thought. I like it. I like it a lot. Thank you for the rave review! Here's chapter 29! Hope you like it!
HarryPassionFan: Thanks for the review! Yeah, I know. I didn't want it so dramatic that it was unbelievable, but not under dramatic so that people thought she was just trying to get attention. It's a very fine line it seems like. I'm getting that a lot 'not surprised that Kim picked Claire to be her successor' or something like that. I think I'm failing in my plot twists. Sigh. She might be, she might not be. We'll have to wait and see. As for her and Billy getting together . . . -grins- you'll see.
PernDragonrider: Yes! I'm so glad you love her. I was totally afraid people would boycott the story when they found out Claire was the successor to the Pink Ranger Powers. Thanks for the compliments! I totally understand about that. Just as long as you tell me what you think from time to time, I'll be happy. I shall strive to live up to my readers expectations, but only if they keep telling me what they think and they're doing a fabulous job! Thanks again!
Lonly Girl: Hmm... I'm failing in throwing my readers off the right trail. Sigh. Thanks for the review! Oh, I've got plans for Kat, believe you me. You just wait and see what I've got in store for Kat. -grins- I know, I liked Rito as a bad guy as well. He was hilarious! Heehee. Here's the next chapter! Enjoy!
Chylea3784: You have a very valid point. It never hurts to train with new powers. I'm glad I surprised you. I'm sorry if you're disappointed about Kat not being Pink, but I have plans for her. She's not out of the loop yet. LOL! Here's the next chapter!
grumpyk: I'm glad you liked the chapter, even if you didn't like my choice. I have plans for Kat, though, so she'll still be in the story. I think you'll enjoy what I have planned for her. -grins-
Last time:
Rocky cleared his throat and said as the others laughed. "Right. I temporarily forgot." Claire shook her head and they left the airport.
Now . . .
Chapter 29
Claire had gone shopping with Aisha a couple days ago for more pink clothing, because of a serious lack of the color in her wardrobe. The rangers were out riding horses when the Earth was shaken by an earthquake. Claire halted her horse and said, looking around.
"Something's wrong." As if on cue, the sky darkened, making day, night.
"Let's head over there." Tommy nodded to a spot that no one could see and the rangers headed over.
Tommy lifted his communicator up to his wrist. "Zordon, what's going on?"
"Rangers, report to the Command Center immediately. A great evil has descended upon Earth." The rangers looked at each other and teleported to the Command Center.

Up in the Moon Palace, a tall monster appeared in the Throne room. Zedd stood up and asked, glaring.
"Who are you?"
"Zeddy," Rita said, swallowing hard. "This is my father, Master Vile."
"I have been watching you two bumble through fighting the Power Rangers, being defeated again and again. I decided it was time I came and did something about it. I will deal with the rangers myself."
"Hey, Ed," Rito walked in. "What was with all the- Whoa! Pops! When did you get here?"
"Just now, Rito. Here," Vile hefted a bag of bird seed at Rito. "Go feed the Tengas this special feed. It will make them stronger and smarter, making them MORE than enough of a match for those power brats, unlike those monsters you two incompetent idiots send down to battle the rangers."
Rito said, holding the jar that held Ninjor. "Ed's not incompetent, Pops. He captured Ninjor." Rito tripped and the jar smashed, releasing the Ninja master. Rito cringed and said as the Ninja master escaped. "Oops."
"RITO! I need that Ninja master in order to make sure everything goes according to my plan to capture Earth! I also needed him to get the Zeo Crystal! Only someone of purity and goodness can get the Zeo Crystal!"
Rito shrugged and said, shaking. "Sorry."

The Rangers arrived at the command Center and Zordon gave them a grave look.
"Rangers, Rita's father, Master Vile, has arrived on Earth. He is the greatest evil the Universe has ever seen. He has brought food for the Tengas to enhance their powers. Fortunately, I have prepared for this. Alpha and I have built new, Metallic Armor into your suits. This armor is only to be called upon in extreme emergencies. To activate it, all you need say is 'Metallic Armor, Power up!' and the armor shall encase you."
Tommy and the others nodded. "We understand, Zordon."
"Rangers!" Ninjor appeared in the Command Center and the Rangers greeted him warmly.
"Ninjor! How did you escape?" Rocky asked.
Ninjor waved Rocky's question away. "There's no time for that now, Rocky. Rangers, Vile is planning to take the Zeo Crystal from the Caves of Deception below the Moon Palace!"
"What's the Zeo Crystal?" Claire asked, her interest peaked.
Zordon took over. "The Zeo Crystal was hidden by monks from Vile's Galaxy, M-51, in the Caves of Deception thousands of years ago. The monks erected a force filed around the Zeo Crystal so that only a force of good can penetrate it and get the Crystal. Should a force of evil try to penetrate the force field, they will be turned to stone."
"We have to get the Zeo crystal before Vile does." Adam said, looking at his teammates.
"But how?" Claire asked, looking at her friends. They looked at each other, at a loss of what to do.

On his Skull ship with Rito and Goldar, Vile created, Globbor, a monster that absorbed and adapted to anything it touched. Vile cackled and said.
"With Globbor, we'll be able to drain Ninjor and capture the rangers. Once I have them within my grasp, I can force them to get the Zeo Crystal for me."
"How are you gonna do that, Pops?" Rito asked, cocking his head to the side.
"The White and Pink rangers seem offly close. I'll use the Pink ranger to get the White ranger to get that Crystal for me." Rito and Goldar laughed and Vile sent the Tengas to deal with the rangers.

The rangers were trying to think of ways to get to the Zeo crystal when the alarms went off. They jumped up and Alpha said, tapping some keys.
"Ay-yi-yi, Rangers! The Tengas are attacking Bulk and Skull at Angel Grove Park!"
Tommy nodded and called out, the rangers taking their stances. "IT'S MORPHIN TIME! WHITE RANGER POWER!"
"BLACK RANGER POWER!"
"PINK RANGER POWER!"
"BLUE RANGER POWER!"
"YELLOW RANGER POWER!"
"RED RANGER POWER!" The rangers teleported to the park and started fighting the Tengas, only to find that the Tengas are too strong.
"Tommy," Claire said as she got up, holding her shoulder. "We need to use the Metallic armor."
Tommy nodded. "I hear you." The rangers gathered together and called out in unison.
"Metallic Armor, Power up!" The armor appeared and the rangers looked at each other before taking out the Tengas with their new weapon.
"Alright!" Rocky cheered when the Tengas retreated. "That was awesome!"
"Well done, Rangers. Report back to the Command Center." The rangers nodded and Tommy replied.
"We're on our way." The rangers teleported to the Command Center and Zordon looked at them all, a grave expression on his face.
"Rangers, you must decide who is going to the Caves of Deception and retrieving the crystal. It needs to be destroyed so that Master Vile may not use it."
"I'll go." Tommy said, looking at the others.
"I'll go with you." Claire said, stepping up with a look of determination on her face.
"Claire, I'm not risking you getting hurt or captured." Tommy said, squeezing his girlfriend's arm gently.
"Tommy, you need back up. You can't do it alone so I'm going with you."
Tommy finally gave in. "Alright. We'll go get the Zeo Crystal and get out of there."
"How are you going to distract Zedd and Rita?" Adam asked, looking at his leader.
"I'll tell them that I want to be evil again." Tommy replied, looking at his fellow rangers.
"Then I'll go get the Zeo Crystal and come back to get you." Claire stated.
Zordon looked down at Alpha. "Alpha, prepare to teleport Tommy and Claire to the Moon Palace." Zordon looked at Claire. "Once in the Caves of Deception, you will be unable to contact the Command Center or the rangers."
Claire nodded, apprehension growing in the pit of her stomach. "I understand."
Zordon nodded. "May the Power protect you." The two nodded and teleported out of the Command Center in twin lights of White and Pink.
Tommy and Claire landed in the Moon Palace and walked silently to the Throne room. They hid behind a pillar and watched as Zedd and Rita talked.
"What are we going to do, Zeddy?" Rita asked, as Zedd paced.
"I don't know, but we have to find a way to defeat the rangers before Vile does!"
Tommy prepared to go out there and Claire said, looking up at her boyfriend. "Be careful, Tommy." Tommy nodded.
"I will." He walked into the throne room and asked, confronting the two. "What if you had a ranger on the inside?" Claire watched for a second before heading off to the Caves of Deception.
Zedd bristled with anger. "White ranger! How did you get in here?!"
Tommy waved Zedd's question away. "I wish to return to serving you, my Empress."
Rita cackled. "I knew you would come crawling back one day!v
"My only wish is to serve you, my Empress."
"Step into this machine." Rita said, leading Tommy to a Machine that had slots where the words, mean, meaner, cruel, torture, and evil were written. Tommy took off his helmet and stepped into it. Flames erected around his legs and he looked at Zedd and Rita.
"What is this!"
"This is the Evil-Reviver machine to make you truly evil. Once the arrow hits Evil, you'll never be able to reverse it!" Zedd replied, laughing.
A red line started up his legs, representing the amount of evil rising in him. He watched as the arrow moved, hoping Claire would find the Zeo Crystal quickly.

Back on Earth, Globbor had captured Ninjor and drained him of enough of his power to be able to transform partly into Ninjor. Ninjor was on Vile's Skull ship, glaring at the villain.
"Vile," Ninjor said, struggling with his bonds. "You won't get away with this!"
Vile laughed. "But I already have." He turned to Globbor. "Globbor, go down to Angel Grove and engage the rangers and their megazords." Globbor nodded and disappeared.

Back in the Command Center, Billy was working on a remote control that would allow he, Rocky, Adam, and Aisha to pilot the Shogun Megazord, since they didn't have Tommy and Claire, and the Ninja zords automatically. Billy finished with the last part and said, grinning.
"It's done!"
"Just in time, too." Zordon said. "Look to the Viewing Globe." The rangers turned and Zordon continued. "Globbor is back and destroying Angel Grove."
"Alright, guys, IT'S MORPHIN TIME!"
"BLACK RANGER POWER!"
"BLUE RANGER POWER!"
"YELLOW RANGER POWER!"
"RED RANGER POWER!" The rangers summoned their Shogun zords and with Billy's remote control, they formed the Shogun Megazord.
Globbor wrapped his tentacles around the Shogun Megazord and sprayed it with a substance that knocked out the power in the zord.
"We're loosing power!" Adam said, tapping keys and buttons.
"We have to evacuate the Shogun Megazord and get into the Ninja Megazord." The rangers nodded and they evacuated just as the Shogun Megazord fell over, heavily damaged.
"We can't get too close guys." Aisha said, as the Ninja Megazord circled Globbor.
"We have to if we're going to land some hits." Rocky replied.
"Whoa!" Aisha pointed forward and the rangers looked, only to see a Ninjor-powered Globbor standing before them. Then the Ninjor-powered Globbor tore the Shogun and Ninja Megazords apart. Tommy watched as the red line moved passed his knees. Zedd looked up and said, roaring in anger.
"The Pink ranger is in the Caves of Deception! She's going for the Zeo Crystal!"
Tommy smirked. "She'll get it too. I have faith in her."
Rita cackled and said, smirking maliciously at Tommy. "You may have faith in her, but does she have faith in herself?"
Tommy glared. "I know she does." The red line moved up his thighs to his hips and Tommy sent a silent message to Claire, telling her to hurry up and find the Zeo Crystal.
