Last time

Divatox glared at them. "You won this time, but next time you won't be so lucky. Viva la Diva!" She and the Piranhatrons disappeared and Tommy and Adam joined the others at the Power Plant.

Now . . .

Chapter 53- Goodbyes

Justin, Claire, and Tanya were fighting the Piranhatrons when Tommy and Adam arrived. Elgar and the Piranhatrons disappeared and Tommy asked, looking at the rangers.

"What does Elgar want with the Power plant?"

"He put something here when I met up with him." Justin supplied.

Tommy nodded. "Alright. Spread out and try to find it." The rangers split up, but they came back together after just ten minutes.

"This place is huge." Tanya said looking at the other rangers.

"I didn't really know where to start looking." Claire replied, putting her hands on her hips.

"Justin, go to the Power Chamber and get the Turbo Navigator. Have Alpha adjust it so that it finds an alien object."

"Right." Justin teleported out and when he arrived at the Power Chamber, he saw Alpha watching a wormhole.

"Isn't it great?"

"Alpha? Tommy said you could make some changes to the Turbo Navigator to help us find whatever alien object Divatox put in the Power Plant."

Alpha shut off the screen and said, handing Justin the Turbo Navigator. "It will find whatever you need it to, Justin."

"Thanks, Alpha." Justin teleported back to the rangers and said, handing it to Tommy. "Here you go, Tommy."

"Great, thanks. Did Alpha make the adjustments?" Tommy asked, opening it.

"He said it was ready to find what we need it to." Tommy nodded and they started in the direction of the object.

Rygog appeared with a group of Piranhatrons and said, as the rangers fought off the Piranhatrons.

"You're precious power plant is going to go up with you in it!"

"Not if I have anything to say about it!" Tommy grabbed the bomb and the rangers gave him time to get to the outside of the power plant.

Once Rygog and the Piranhatrons disappeared, the rangers followed Tommy, who had called on the R.A.M. Tommy put the bomb on the R.A.M and sent it off. A few seconds later, it exploded.

Alpha looked up at Zordon and said, excited. "It's ready!"

Zordon said, looking down at Alpha. "Contact Lerigot, Alpha."

"I'm on it, Zordon." Alpha made contact and made plans with his good friend.

Claire, Tanya, and Adam got back to the ceremony just in time to see Kat go on. They smiled and gave her the thumbs up. She smiled and read her speech. When she finished, Mr. Caplan said, smiling at the graduating class.

"It is my pleasure to tell you to move your tassels to the other side. Congratulations, Class of 1997." The rangers tossed up their caps and caught them again. They hugged each other and Justin when he joined them.

Divatox saw a wormhole and asked her scientific advisor, Porto. "Porto, where does that wormhole end?"

"By my calculations, it ends on Eltar, but I don't know who would want to go to Eltar."

Divatox's eyes widened. "Zordon! Zordon is going to try and go back to Eltar." She whirled around to face Porto and said, glaring at him. "I don't care how you do it, just close that wormhole!"

After their graduation, the rangers went to the Youth Center. They got their regular table and sat together. Kat asked, looking Adam.

"What are you doing this summer, Adam?"

"I've got a gig doing stunts at the local carnival."

Tanya smiled. "That's great. You're looking at the newest DJ at 101.9 KARG radio station."

"That's great, Tanya!" Claire said, smiling.

"What are you doing Claire?" Trini asked.

Claire replied, sighing. "I'm following Tommy around to make sure he doesn't kill himself. If he does, I'll never forgive him." Claire replied, taking a bite of her carrot.

"He won't kill himself. He has been a ranger the last four years." Rocky muttered, grinning at his redheaded friend.

"That doesn't make him invincible." Claire replied, a small smile creeping its way across her face.

Jason grinned. "I can just see it now: Race car driver, Tommy Oliver, died today when his car spun out of control and slammed into the wall." Jason would have gone on if he hadn't seen Claire's face. She looked as if she were going cry. Her chin was trembling and her eyes held unshed tears. Tanya, Kim, Trini, Aisha and Kat smacked Jason before they reassured her Tommy wasn't going to die.

Justin walked in just then and said, smiling. "I think I've done alright on those placement tests."

Kat smiled. "Speaking of those tests, I'll be working with the in coming Freshmen this fall."

Aisha smiled at her friend. "That's great, Kat."

Mr. Caplan walked in and said, placing his hand on Justin's shoulder. "I've just looked at your test scores, Justin, and it seems like we have a prodigy on our hands. This fall, you will be joining the incoming Freshman. Welcome to Angel Grove High, Mr. Stewart." Mr. Caplan turned and Claire smiled at her teammate.

"Congratulations, Justin!" Justin grinned and looked over at Kat.

"Thanks. I guess I'll be seeing a lot of you, Kat." Kat grinned and said, ruffling his hair.

"Guess so."

At the Power Chamber, Zordon said, looking down at Alpha. "It's time to summon the rangers, Alpha."

"Contacting them now."

The rangers were walking out of the Youth center when their communicators went off.

Claire said, raising her communicator. "We read you, Zordon."

"Claire, bring Jason, Kat, Rocky, Aisha, Billy, Trini, Zach and Kimberly with you to the Power Chamber."

"On our way, Zordon." Claire took Zach, Kim and Aisha, Tanya took Billy and Kat, and Adam took Jason, Rocky, and Trini and together, they went to the Power Chamber.

When they arrived, Tommy was there and Alpha had a cake all ready for them. He said, tilting his head to the side.

"Rangers, congratulations on graduating."

"Thanks, Alpha." Claire said, smiling at the robot. "But I have a feeling that that's not you asked us here."

"Rangers," Zordon said, bringing their attention to him. "It has been my pleasure and honor to be a mentor to you, but it has come time for Alpha and I to return to our home planet of Eltar. Another will come and take my place as mentor to you."

The rangers looked at each other and Tommy wrapped his arms around Claire. They were about to say good bye when the alarms went off.

"Aye-yi-yi! Divatox is attacking Angel Grove!"

Tommy called out as the rangers morphers appeared on their wrists and their friends stood back. "SHIFT INTO TURBO!"

"WIND CHASER TURBO POWER!"

"DUNE STAR TURBO POWER!"

"DESERT THUNDER TURBO POWER!"

"MOUNTAIN BLASTER TURBO POWER!"

"RED LIGHTNING TURBO POWER!"

"Nice." Zach grinned.

Adam nodded, grinning under his helmet. "Thanks, Zach." Then he and the other rangers teleported to Angel Grove in their Turbo vehicles and saw Elgar and his crew in vehicles of their own.

Tommy said, avoiding being slammed into the wall by Elgar. "Let's take care of these goons!"

"You said it." Justin said.

Tommy grinned and said, hand on the stick. "Alright guys! Shift into Turbo!"

The rangers Turboed up and Claire and Justin were the first to come together. It was rough and when she and Justin were in their seats, she said, cringing at the rough coming together of Adam and Tanya's Vehicles.

"I hope we get better at this."

Justin turned in his seat and replied, giving his pink friend the thumbs up. "No doubt." The zord jolted when Tanya and Adam connected. Adam and Tanya came up and Adam said, looking at the other two.

"That was rough."

"Definitely. We'll get better." Tanya replied, grinning at her teammates.

Tommy came to complete the Megazord formation. The Megazord stood up and Elgar said, turning around.

"Let's get back to Auntie D! This isn't the last of us, Rangers!"

The rangers got back to the Power Chamber and saw Lerigot preparing to send Zordon and Alpha through the wormhole. The rangers took off their helmets and said, teary eyed.

"Wow. I never thought we'd be saying good bye." Kim said, as she, Aisha, Kat, Tanya and Trini hugged Claire.

Claire nodded. "I know."

Zordon said, looking down at the rangers. "I have watched you grow from teenagers to confident young men and women. I will always remember each and every one of you. You have become such a part of my life that I have been touched by your strength, kindness, loyalty, and love for each other and your fellow humans."

Jason said, looking up at the man he saw as a father. "You've touched our lives as well Zordon. You believed in us even when we didn't believe in ourselves. You taught us to be heroes, but most most of all, you taught us to be true to ourselves and to who we are as people of our world."

"Good bye, Rangers." Alpha said, looking at them sadly.

"Good bye, Rangers," Zordon said as he and Alpha disappeared. "May the Power always protect you." Alpha waved to them and they disappeared.

"They're really gone." Zach said, looking at the rangers and his friends.

Claire said, looking at her friends. "We're alone." Tommy was about to say something when the alarms went off.

Billy brought it up on the viewing screen and said. "Looks like Divatox is trying to close the wormhole."

Lerigot said, making Tommy, Claire, Adam, Tanya, Justin, Kim, Aisha, Trini, Kat, Rocky, Zach, Billy and Jason freeze. "Wormhole close, Zordon, Alpha, lost forever."

Claire said, picking up her helmet. "We can't let them be lost forever!"

Tommy shook his head. "We're not letting that happen. Back to Action!" The rangers teleported down to Angel Grove and saw a giant amphibian standing in front of the machine that was closing the wormhole.

"Hey! Amphibitor!" The monster turned around to see the Power Rangers.

"Who are you?" The green creature stood in front of the device.

The pink ranger pointed at him. "We're here to stop you!"

"You are, are you? Come and get me!" The rangers went down to him and started battling him.

The rangers were about to finish him off when Amphibitor grew. Tommy called out, raising his hand.

"RED LIGHTNING TURBO ZORD, TURBO UP!"

"WIND CHASER TURBO ZORD, TURBO UP!"

"MOUNTAIN BLASTER TURBO ZORD, TURBO UP!"

"DUNE STAR TURBO ZORD, TURBO UP!"

"DESERT THUNDER TURBO ZORD, TURBO UP!" The rangers formed the Turbo Megazord and Amphibitor said, taunting them.

"Oohh. Nice toy. Too bad I have to break it now!"

"Not a chance, Amphibitor!" The rangers called on the Turbo sword and slashed at Amphibitor, but Amphibitor got the better of them.

"Alright guys, time to finish him off!" The rangers called out in unison.

"TURBO MEGAZORD SPIN OUT!" The rangers destroyed Amphibitor and went back to the device.

Claire called on her weapon. "TURBO WIND FIRE!" She shot a bolt of energy at the device and it was destroyed.

The rangers went back to the Power Chamber and watched as Zordon and Alpha finished their journey home.

Kim smiled sadly and said, looking at her friends. "He's home."

Tanya said looking at her fellow rangers. "And we're really alone." Then a lightning show started and a new Alpha, Alpha 6, came out of a tube in the wall. He asked.

"What are we, chop sui?" The rangers looked and Aisha asked, a little confused.

"Alpha?"

"At your service! Alpha 6 to be precise." Then a ghost of a woman appeared in front of them.

"Hello. My name is Dimitria." She saw their looks and asked. "Did you not realize I was coming?"

Adam replied, looking at his friends before looking back at the woman clad in white. "We knew someone was coming to take Zordon's place, but we didn't really know what to expect."

Dimitria looked at the rangers and asked. "I know who I am, but do you know who you are?"

Tommy replied, looking at Dimitria. "Yeah, we're the Power Rangers."

Dimitria asked, tilting her head to the side. "But, is not who you are, more than just a Power Ranger?" The rangers looked at each other and Dimitria went up to the Plasma Tube.

Claire said, looking at her friends. "I guess we never thought of it that way because we've been Power Rangers for a while now. It's just become part of who we are."

Dimitria only smiled and the rangers knew this was the beginning of a new era.
