Down Town Angel Grove: Street Levels:

The rain had suddenly stopped its down pour all seemed quiet in the city, but in reality a dark storm was approaching. Lord Zedd stood ready, his face was angry; his eyes were lit up with rage. Before him were Tommy and Jason, the one who helped impression him and the other the leader of his most annoying of enemies. Now here they were both ready to face him, both ready to fight him. This alliance between brothers was not one out of love, or understanding, rather it seemed to be an alliance of convenience. Both warriors knew the reality of what Lord Zedd was, and to face him alone was suicide.

"What is this? Two warriors bent on my destruction?" howled the demon.

"Something like that," said Jason who began to redraw his power sword.

"So what? Friends all of the sudden? You two were ready to kill each other a moment ago before I arrived," noted the demon as he pointed at Tommy. "I've only come for him red ranger, I have no quarrel with you, yet…"

"Go Jason, I'll handle this." Warned Tommy

"No," Jason refused. "I will not abandon you, you are my brother."

"I deserve to die Jason, not you. We cannot hope to kill him. Not with only us."

"But with us all you might stand a chance!" Billy chanted.

A white, pink, black & purple, yellow, and blue energy of teleportation beams appeared from behind Jason and Tommy reinforcing them. All seven rangers standing finally united.

"WHAT'S THIS?!" demanded Zedd

"Guys!" Jason chanted in excitement. "Rangers!"

"Jason!" Billy smiled. "You okay?"

"Yea, I'm fine. What are you guys doing here? I ordered you to stay out of the way? And Boi?! Why are you here?"

"I've already been discovered Jason. Zedd knows I'm a spy. Besides, I tired of fighting for the wrong side. I miss being a part of the team," explained Boi raising his fist.

"We're tired of standing on the side lines while you have all the fun!" Zach smiled

"Sorry Jason, you may have fought Tommy alone, but no way are we letting you fight Zedd single handedly." Billy replied placing a hand on Jason's shoulder.

"I wasn't alone." Jason nodded looking back at Tommy.

"No… Tommy's on our side now?" Questioned Billy

"NO JASON!" Demanded Kimberly, "Fuck that, he killed my family!"

"He hurt us Jason, all of us!" Zach agreed refusing to accept Tommy's aid.

"Oh cry me a river," shrugged Tommy. "All you rangers do is moan and whine, no wonder Zedd is winning."

"Fuck you!" Kimberly cried pulling out her power bow and pointing it at Tommy's chest.

Tommy suddenly smiled at Kimberly's actions holding his arms apart and taunting her. "Take your best shot bitch!"

"KIMBERLY!" yelled Jason as he stepped between her and Tommy, letting the path of the bow point to his chest. "Enough of this!"

"Fuck that Jason! No more of this shit! He dies tonight!" Zach agreed standing with Kimberly.

"And what about Zedd?!" Jason asked. "You think we won't need Tommy then!?"

"Get out of the way Jason!" ordered Kimberly

"I will not!"

"He killed my family! Murdered them!" She yelled.

Tommy began to shove Jason out of the way and stepped toward Kimberly. "Oh shut up Barbie doll. Calm down. I didn't kill your parents, they were putties in disguise. I only made it look like I killed them. Happy now?"

"What?" Kimberly asked in shock, her eyes widened.

"You didn't kill them?" Zach asked.

"Nooo… I just pretended I did to throw your team off balance. I don't know where your family is. Satisfied?" Tommy shrugged.

"My parents aren't dead?" Kimberly began to shake holding her bow, slowly lowering it.

"Nah, I'm just fucking with ya! I totally killed them! HA, HA, HA!"

"TOMMY!" Jason yelled in complete anger, grabbing him and throwing him to the ground. "You son of a bitch! I should kill you for doing that to her!"

Kimberly fell to the floor as her hopes were dashed, clinging onto her bow Zach coming to her side. Jason held Tommy firm, his hands coming around his neck, desperately wanting to kill him. "You murdering bastard, I should have killed you when I had the chance! Why are you doing this to us?!"

"Calm down Jason," Tommy replied, still smiling in his helmet. "Let me go."

"Fuck you! I was going to forgive you, I was going to make you a member of the team…"

"Fuck your team Jason. You think I suddenly changed just because you beat me in a fight? Ask the Masked Rider if that worked out for him. You think I want to join your team? Fuck you and your Rangers! This is an alliance of convenience, nothing more! Look into my eyes Jason, the brother you think I am is not here! I am who I am, evil, well that's just a side effect of this universe, deal with it… now let me up!"

Jason's grip began to tighten, he felt the rush of wanting to hurt his own brother, his anger growing at the point of Kimberly's pain. "You hurt the two girls I love most!"

"Jason…" Billy reasoned, placing a hand on Jason's shoulder. "Stop this…"

"He needs to die Billy!" Jason warned.

"He does…" Boi nodded in agreement.

Billy turned back at the other rangers. "But not now, not tonight! We need him to fight Zedd. We need all the help we can get. After that, I promise you can finish what you started."

Jason felt his grip tighten for a moment, and then suddenly he released it. "This isn't over Tommy!"

Tommy adjusted his neck rubbing it as Jason began to let him up. "Thank you," the green ranger mockingly stated.

"Well now, this is interesting isn't it Rangers?" Zedd joked. "I don't have to do anything except watch you all destroy each other!"

"You're going to eat those words Zedd!" Zach demanded pulling out his power axe.

The rangers all began to draw their weapons all uniting against an even greater threat than Tommy. All the rangers held their weapons high, even Tommy as his dagger again transformed into a sword. Tommy looked over his shoulder and noticed Alpha holding his Titanus Blade and gave the robot a confused look. "Didn't I kill you?"

Alpha didn't say a word, instead he focused on Zedd. Billy answered for him. "You destroyed his secondary head; you never hit his primary."

"Interesting… you have two heads when you morph…" Tommy noted.

"He still can't talk with the head you destroyed, been repairing it." Billy explained.

"No wonder you've been so quiet," said Tommy. "Bet you want to tell me off too don't you little robot? Ha… too bad you can't can you?"

Alpha suddenly held up his middle finger at Tommy then brought his focus back to Zedd. Tommy chuckled a moment and looked back a Zedd. "Funny little droid…"

"Can we all just focus on the problem at hand?" Zach asked turning to Tommy. "This isn't over green ranger. The second Zedd is dead I'm going to bury this axe in your chest!"

"Yeah, ask Kimberly what happened the last time someone tried burying anything into me. She's minus an arm."

"God Tommy, shut the fuck up!" Jason complained. "Just shut up!"

"I don't know why I let you little bugs talk for this long, let's just finish this!" Zedd commanded

The rangers began to charge at the demon, their weapons at the ready. Jason was first to attack, swinging his blade at Zedd, but the beast ducked and countered with a strike from his staff sending the red ranger packing, flying back. Billy came next, staff for staff, but Zedd tripped the blue warrior and countered again his strike at Billy's chest. Now came Kimberly who attacked with great fury firing her bow. The first arrow struck, but it did little harm to Zedd as he spun his staff around and fired an energy blast from it hitting Kimberly's chest rocketing her back. Boi came then, flailing his daggers at Zedd. He managed to land to hit, but was then struck down by Zedd again. Last came both Alpha and Tommy, the Green and White Rangers working as one their sword both hammering back at Zedd. Zedd fell back a short moment, but a second blast from his staff was all it took to send the last two rangers to the floor.

"HA!" Zedd mocked. "Is this all that you can muster?"

"Not even close!" Jason warned. "Rangers, Bring them Together!"

The five rangers united with Jason, their power weapons all crossing each other as Jason gave his commands. Zach pulled up his axe, "Power AXE!"

Kimberly her bow, "Power Bow!"

Billy his lance, "Power Lance!"

Boi his daggers, "Power Daggers!"

Jason his sword, "Power Sword!"

Their weapons formed as one coming together to form the Howling Cannon! Jason leaped into the air and grabbed the weapon landing with the other rangers that began to channel their energy by touching Jason's back. Their energy flowed into Jason's armor than into the howling cannon itself. "HOWLING CANNON!" the rangers all chanted at the five blasts from the cannon began to flow into one striking Lord Zedd's chest; a huge explosion filled the air. BOOM!

A colorful burst of explosive energy filled the air, Jason watch with the other rangers. "Is he dead?" Boi asked the smoke beginning to clear.

"I don't know…" Jason replied.

The smoked cleared and still Zedd stood proud tall, and unscaved. "My turn!" The demon called holding up his staff and firing it at the rangers. "Demonic Strike!" A huge surge of energy flowed from his staff, launching at the rangers, the staff flowing with blue and red energy. BOOM! Again an explosion filled the streets, but this time it was Zedd that struck. The rangers fell back in pain, Zedd had dealt a huge blow at them.

The ranger all struggled back to their feet, all of them in pain grabbing at their wounds. "Shit…" Jason uttered as he stood to his feet still clutching his sword.

"Perfect!" Zedd mocked holding his staff. "This is what happens when you cross Zedd!"

Without warning a blade sudden pierced the back of the red demon, a familiar sword shaped like a flute sliced into Zedd's back. "This is what happens when you cross Thomas Burai Oliver Tellez!"

Zedd felt the pain of Tommy's sword slicing through him as he turned around looking at the blade that had pierced him. "What is this?" Zedd mocked, slowly pulling out the blade and dropping it to the floor. "That all you can do green ranger?"

"Ha…" Tommy shrugged looking dumb founded at his sword now on the floor. "That never usually happens… usually the sword through the back kills all my victims…"

"His head!" Boi yelled form the floor. "Cut off his head!"

"That's enough out of you!" Zedd called firing a blast at the yellow ranger striking at Boi launching him back.

Jason got to his feet and again engaged Zedd blade to blade. Tommy leaped into the air with his recovered sword and joined Jason in the struggle. "I'll distract!" Tommy called. "You take his head!"

Again the two warriors fought as one both charging at Zedd their blades locking in unison. Zedd continued to walk back as the two rangers press forward allowing the other rangers to recover. Soon all seven rangers were on their feet and joined to attack. Zedd defended well fighting all seven, it was an amazing sight as the demon despite his rather large size was still able to block all attacks from the rangers.

"He's too strong!" Kimberly panted on her knees as Zedd again had struck her down.

Zach began to come to her side and helped her to her feet again. "We have to keep trying!"

"Jason any ideas?" Billy asked as his lance clashed with Zedd's own.

"Boi says we have to strike at his head, that's his only weak spot!" Jason replied.

"If we all come at him, one of us is bound to land a hit!" Zach added joining their attack.

"Fuck this guy is tough…" Boi noted as he fell to the floor again.

"Rangers!" Jason called. "Combined Weapon attacks! Wave Strikes at this Bastard. Don't let him recover!"

Zach leaped into the air with his axe and transformed it into a cannon as he landed. "Mammoth Blast!" The beam from Zach's axe fired free and struck perfectly at Zedd pushing him back in a great explosion of black and purple energy.

Zedd began to come to his feet, but before he could Kimberly aimed her power bow and charged pink energy. "FIRE BURST!" she called launching a flaming pink charged arrow with incredible energy.

"Super Lance Smasher!" Called Billy as waves of Blue energy rocketed from his power lance and struck at Zedd again!

Now came Boi his daggers in hand as he leaped into the air and fired hundreds of bolts of yellow energy in the form of daggers straight into Zedd yet again. "Saber Fangs of Furry!"

Then came Tommy who surprisingly joined the rangers in unison. "Dragon Sword, Flute Fang Strike," the waves of green energy coming at the demon hitting hard.

Alpha leaded into the air and landed in front of the Zedd. He held his sword and pointed it toward the ground taking a knee as waves of white, black, and golden energy charged around him. If the robot could speak in his ranger form he would have stated, Charging Titanus Rocker, but nonetheless a void of energy appeared behind him in the form of a brontosaurs that stomped it's way to Zedd exploding in a huge fire ball of white energy.

Finally Jason joined, his blade spinning in his hand charging red energy. "Power Sword, Flare Up Now! Rolling Bomber!" The huge surge of red energy flew from Jason's hands striking at Zedd launching the demon back before the energy formed into a giant ball surrounding the monster and exploded in the sky. BOOM!

When the smoke cleared there was Zedd finally at his knees from the repeated attacks. "Aarghh…" he held his side and slowly came back to his feet. "Combined… you just might stand a chance…" the Emperor realized. "You might…"

"Now you know who you are facing Zedd!" Jason warned as all seven rangers rallied behind him.

"Yes… I do…" Zedd stood to his feet and began to walk toward the rangers. "I realize you have been the gravest threat to my power since this war began… I have underestimated you rangers, but never again!" Zedd raised his arm to the sky pointing it over the heads of the rangers. "Together you might defeat me, but alone…!"

Tommy realized what was about to happen before it did, he leaped toward Jason out of the way of what was about to come around the rangers. Jason turned back, time moved into a crawl as the cage of red energy slowly formed around the remaining rangers. Jason could see the trap falling around the other rangers, Zedd was isolating him alone, but as the dome of red and blue energy fell around the rangers, Tommy narrowly escaped the trapped.

"Tommy!" Jason yelled as the energy missed his feet. The wave of energy finally landed trapping the white, yellow, blue, pink, and black rangers inside it, leaving only Tommy and Jason out of it.

Tommy began to stand up coming to Jason's side. "Jason!"

"What happened?" Jason asked looking back at the rangers.

"What the hell?!" Zach yelled looking at the red dome around him. "What is this?"

Billy walked to the edge of the red dome and touched it. "Oh shit…"

"What's going on?" Kimberly asked looking at the red energy.

"Zedd's trapped us inside his energy…" Boi realized beginning to cross his arms. "Only Tommy and Jason are outside of it…"

"Shit!" Zach pouted. "He's separating us from them. Why!"

"He knows together he might not defeat us, but take us on one at a time, and were dead!" Billy replied.

"Then…" Kimberly came to the edge of the dome looking at Jason and Tommy.

"It's up to them now…" Billy replied.

"Jason…" she whimpered

"He's not alone, Tommy's still with him…" Billy replied.

"He might as well be alone. I doubt Tommy will stick around for whatever Zedd throws at them both. He's going to let Jason die alone!"

"I don't think so…" Boi replied.

"Why do you say that?" Zach asked in great skepticism

"Tommy may hate us all, but his love for his brother is genuine…"

"Right… I'm sure…"

Outside Zedd's Energy Dome:

"What the hell just happened?" Jason asked looking back at the trapped rangers.

"I saw it coming, why your rangers were too slow to see it boggles my mind Jason. Their too fucking slow for their own good! And here I thought we were both going to live through this…" Tommy replied crossing his arms at him.

"Don't talk about them like that!" Jason replied touching the side of the dome looking at Kimberly who stared back at him.

"It's true! Your rangers were slow to react to Zedd's trap, and now it is us just us two verse the dark lord of demons! Fucking pathetic excuses for power rangers!" Tommy replied in frustration.

"I said don't talk about them like that." Jason replied. "They couldn't have predicted this… neither did I."

"It's too late for that now Jason." Tommy stated

"What now?" Jason asked turning back to Zedd.

"We die…" Tommy replied raising his fist and sword.

Jason drew up his sword and joined his brother. "Don't be so negative. We still have a chance. He's weak!"

"Don't be naive Jason. Death is certain here." Tommy warned

"We need a plan if we want to get out of this." Jason countered

"The head…" Tommy uttered. "We go for his head. It's the only hope we have of making out of this alive brother."

"Okay. You call it." Jason responded drawing his sword up again.

"I'll come at his front, you take his flank. Strike at his chest."

"We have to go for the head Tommy!" Jason countered.

"Yes, but I realized when I struck his heart it slowed him down considerably. You'll have an opening of two to three seconds. You pull that blade out quick and slice him, understand?" Tommy asked.

"Yes. But what's your role in all this?" Jason asked

"Do you want to make it out of this alive with your friends, brother?" Tommy asked.

"Yes…" Jason hesitated.

"Then shut up and do as I say!" Yelled Tommy. "I'm going to redeem myself today!" The green ranger held up his blade again looking at Zedd. "Come on you giant red mother fucker! Come on!"

"Tommy…" Jason began to utter as Tommy charged.

It all began to happen so fast, Jason saw Tommy clash with Zedd, he fought so well. Jason charged running to Zedd's left side, did Zedd see him coming? The red ranger continued to look on, Zedd's entire focus was on Tommy, he could see his opening coming. Tommy struck hard turning just in time to avoid Jason's blade coming in. Jason saw Zedd's exposed chest this was it!

In the Dome:

"Oh my God!" Billy yelled

"What?!" Zach asked running to his side. "What!?"

"Oh my God he did it…" Billy uttered.

"What happened?" Kimberly asked approaching them.

Outside the Dome:

Jason's sword buried deep into Zedd chest, the demon fell to his knees. "Now Jason!" Tommy yelled.

"I don't have a heart ranger!" Zedd mocked as the blade entered him.

"You have a fucking head demon!" Jason quickly pulled out his blade and swung swiftly. Zedd's head hit the ground with a thud, it was finally over…

The body of the demon fell over to his side, the red energy dome around the rangers began to fade away. "Jason!" Kimberly yelled as the rangers ran up to Jason's side. "You did it!"

"You did it!" Zach yelled "You got that bastard!"

"Well done!" Boi replied as Alpha nodded and patted his chest.

"We did it!" Jason smiled. "We did it!"

"We got him!" Zach called. "We got him!"

Jason began to turn to Tommy walking toward his brother. "We did it." He smiled. "You're plan worked!"

Tommy held his stomach. "Perfectly…" Tommy replied in a low tone.

"Tommy…" Jason uttered. "Tommy what's wrong?"

Suddenly Tommy removed his hand and revealed a large pool of blood around him. The green ranger collapsed on top of Jason who caught him in his arms. "Oh my God!" Jason nearly yelled. "Oh my God!"

The rangers began to step back, Jason fell to the floor with Tommy and clutched him in his arms. "Tommy!"

"Jason…" Tommy uttered.

"Tommy what happened?!" Jason asked looking at his brother's body, the blood flowing to the ground. "Tommy!"

"I saw it happen…" Billy uttered. "Zedd struck his chest and stomach moments before you landed your attack. Tommy sacrificed himself for you…"

"Oh God Jason… I have done so much wrong…" Tommy uttered "Will God forgive me?"

"Jesus forgives everything Tommy…" Jason uttered.

"I'm going to die Jason… I feel it…"

"No…" Jason stated shaking his head. "No… we're going to save you Tommy! We were going to save you!"

Tommy clutched onto his dragon dagger and began to hand it to Jason. "You have Jason… you have saved me…"

"Shut the fuck up Tommy! Don't talk like that!" Jason stated looking down at him.

"My God…" Zach called from behind.

Kimberly approached slowly her hands clinched into fists. "I have always wanted to see you die…" she said shaking her head. "You hurt me so bad… but now…"

"I-I am so sorry Kimberly… I did so much harm to you… not caring of the consequences… not caring what it would do to you all…" Tommy uttered.

"No Tommy, stay with me…" Jason cried shaking his body.

"Listen to me…" Tommy ordered. "Listen to me!" Tommy began to reach for his morpher and handed it to Jason. "This is suppose to happen… I died in the original universe…"

"No you didn't!" Jason called. "You never died I remember!"

"No Jason… I did die…" Tommy corrected

"Oh my God!" Boi suddenly uttered. "You did die!" he began to cry out. "He did die!"

"What are you talking about Tommy?!" Jason asked.

"I remember my universe… but not yours Jason!" Tommy suddenly revealed.

Boi shook his head and looked at his hands walking in revelation. "I remember now! I was a Zyuranger!" Boi uttered in shock. "Burai!"

"What?!" Jason asked looking back.

"Oh my God, you're not Tommy!" Boi stated. "Your Burai!"

"Yes…" Tommy replied shaking his head at Jason. "I'm not from your original universe Jason… I was never this Tommy you speak so highly of… I was called Burai…"

"Tommy…" Jason uttered still holding him.

"Take my morpher Jason! Take it!" Tommy began to cough up blood as his power armor slowly faded away. "Use it! Use my power for good! Saving your life is my redemption. You can bring so much more good than the evil I have rot into this world…"

"No Tommy, I won't! You will! You're going to live damn it!"

"No… I'm meant to die!" Tommy's leaned forward to Jason. "Listen to me… Listen! You can fix it all!"

"What are you talking about!" Jason asked between his tears.

"The star portal… I'm building it… Ivan's design!"

"What was Ivan trying to build?!" Jason asked.

"The universes are scattered, one delving into another… it's going to get worse! Everything will collapse in itself! All existence! I was trying to fix it! The star portal will realign everything! Make it as it was! Fix not just your universe, but create a new one! A single universe! Fix it all! You can go back! Save everyone I killed, save everyone Zedd killed! You can go home! Don't you see?! You can fix it all!"

"Stay with me Tommy!" Jason cried. "Stay with me!"

"Go… Jason… fix it… fix everything! Go now… Go… go… power… rangers…" Tommy slowly closed his eyes and began to rest… he died in Jason's arms, his life had finally ended in peace…
