A/N: This is another of my favourite Space episodes.
Regarding LG, I'm afraid you'll have to wait and see, but I can tell you that Mel will be appearing in the team-up episodes.
Previously on Power Rangers in Space...
The NASADA satellite falls towards Kalderon.
"I think it got it!" Elgar whooped, flying a Veloifighter.
"Make sure!" Astronema ordered on the Dark Fortress. "That satellite knows too much."
The Rangers look at Gen. Norquist on the viewing screen, on the bridge of the Megaship.
"Please try to retrieve the data discs. You're our only hope." he told them.
The Rangers run towards the satellite on Kalderon.
"Hey, over here!" Ashley called.
Mel runs towards Cassie, now both morphed.
"You alright, Cassie?" Mel asked, helping her up.
Andros - morphed himself - falls onto his knees, and then onto his chest while holding the discs.
Astronema, Elgar and a bunch of Quantrons stand around the Rangers, as they were all chained to the ground.
"I'll leave you here to Clawhammer can eat you for lunch." Astronema grinned.
Clawhammer hits the Astro Megazord in the chest, and then hits it again. It lifts him up, and then threw him into a fiery crevice, destroying him.
Onboard the Megaship, the Rangers - all morphed - were on Mega Deck 5 in the SimuDeck. They all faced against Manta Menace.
"Let's do it!" Andros said.
His helmet symbol lit up, then he scanned the monster, before his helmet showed their weapons.
"Weapons up!" he shouted, as his lit up inside his helmet.
They then all brought their weapons out.
"Spiral Saber!"
"Lunar Lance!"
"Astro Axe!"
"Star Slinger!"
"Satellite Stunner!"
"Solar Spear!"
"Hyah!" they all shouted.
Manta Menace fired lasers out of his eyes at the Rangers, which hit the ground in front of them, making them look away. Smoke then came up from the ground, and then they charged at him.
Cassie then jumped up and fired her Satellite Stunner at him, hitting him in the chest hard.
"Ahh!" he moaned.
"Hey, guys, check this out?" TJ grinned, holding his Astro Axe out.
He then spun around as he dashed towards Manta Menace, hitting him with his Astro Axe.
Mel then jumped up and stabbed him in the chest with her Solar Spear, then she whacked him with the pole end as she ran past him.
Carlos then dived towards him, and then hit him in the face with his Lunar Lance, and then lifted him up with it.
"Good one, Carlos." Ashley commented, coming up behind Manta Menace. "Let me help?"
She fired her Star Slinger at Manta Menace, hitting him in the back as Carlos held him up, before putting him down.
"Let's finish this!" Andros shouted, before charging at Manta Menace, who growled as he turned to him.
Andros then sliced his Spiral Saber from right to left, and then from up to down, hitting him in the chest. He then turned around as sparks came out of Manta Menace, then the Rangers all turned to him.
"Yeah!" he cheered.
Ashley laughed.
"Whoo!" Mel cheered, resting her weapon on her shoulder, as did TJ.
"We did it!" Andros cheered, as he and Cassie held their weapons up.
"Yeah." Ashley agreed.
"That was a great workout." TJ remarked.
"Yeah." Cassie agreed.
"Right. Stop simulation!" Andros shouted.
Their weapons then all vanished, then the simulation began to vanish, as he walked away.
"Whoo. That was cool." Carlos remarked.
"Yeah." Ashley agreed.
"It was great." Cassie commented.
"Brilliant." Mel commented.
"I love it." TJ said.
They all walked towards Andros, as they all took their helmets off.
"Rangers, time for your tests." Alpha explained.
"Oh, yeah? Math midterms." Ashley sighed, turning to the others, as Andros walked out of the room.
"Oh, back to reality." Cassie realized, as they followed Andros.
"Good thing we studied." TJ smirked.
"Yeah, otherwise we'd be in trouble." Mel said.
Later, all six of them walked down a hallway in Angel Grove High in normal clothes.
"I am so not ready for this test." Ashley admitted.
"We'll just have to try our best." Mel told her.
The bell then rang, making Andros jump as he'd never heard it before.
"No!" TJ said, wrapping his arm around Andros. "Just a bell. It means classes start."
"Oh." Andros said, as they walked down the hallway.
TJ and Carlos ran down the hallway as the girls giggled.
"Means we're late." Carlos explained.
Andros and the girls then stopped near a door, then Ashley touched his shoulder.
"Look, why don't you go hang out and see Angel Grove." she suggested. "Make some friends."
Cassie opened the door and walked into the room.
"Maybe Sara can help you out at the Surf Spot." Mel told him, as Cassie walked into the classroom.
"Bye." Ashely said, waving as she and Mel both followed.
"Don't worry about me." Andros said, before he looked around the hallway.
Meanwhile, onboard the Dark Fortress, Astronema and some Quantrons stood on the bridge with a grey monster.
"Astronema, dark princess of space, I am Voltage Hog." the monster explained.
"So, go hog some voltage, and once you're fully charged, destroy the Rangers!" Astronema ordered.
"As you command." Voltage Hog nodded, before disappearing in a flash of lighting.

Later, at the Surf Spot, Adelle was standing behind the counter, with two police officers in front of her.
"It was a big white van." she explained. "Says 'Surf Spot' right on the side."
"And you think someone stole it around ten this morning?" one officer inquired.
"I don't think. I know someone stole it around ten. They took my keys." Adelle explained. "My waitress Sara got messed up slightly as someone gagged her."
The officers turned to Sara as she put some drinks down on a table, and saw that her clothes looked pretty messed up.
"Sorry, ma'am." the second officer said, as they turned back to her. "We'll do our best."
They both walked away, as a suspicious looking boy in black with a milkshake watched nearby. As Sara walked back towards Adelle, the boy walked towards the table she'd just been at, then bent down and snatched some money out of a girl's purse, which was hanging on the back of a chair.
"Take these to table 7." Adelle said, putting some drinks on Sara's tray.
"Okay." Sara said, lifting her tray up. "Any word on the van yet?"
"No, I'm afraid not." Adelle sighed.
"I'm sure they'll find it." Sara assured. "I just wish I got a good look at the guy who gagged me."
"Well, that wasn't your fault, since you were gagged and blindfolded." Adelle said.
"Yeah." Sara sighed.
She walked off, while staring at a boy in red, and a girl wearing a brown jacket at a pool table. The girl shot the cue ball along the table, as the boy in black came towards them both.
"Cops don't have a clue." he said, hitting the other boy's fist.
The girl looked nervously, before she saw Andros trying to eat a banana, without peeling it.
"Hey, excuse me." she said.
Andros stopped biting and turned to her.
"You want some advice?" she asked.
Andros nodded, as the two boys turned to him.
"Peel it first." the girl advised.
The boy in red laughed lightly, as Andros peeled the banana with his own hands, then got up and walked towards them as he took a bite.
"Mmm." he said, enjoying the taste. "Excuse me, do you want some advice?"
The girl nodded.
Andros looked at the balls left on the pool table.
"Go for the 'six' in the corner." he said. "It's a much better bet."
"So you like to bet." the boy in black said. "I'll bet you this milkshake you can't make that shot."
The girl walked towards Andros and handed him her cue stick. Andros then handed her his banana, then walked around the table towards the cue ball. He then bent down and aimed the stick at the ball, then hit the cue ball, which hit three balls close together, but then one hit the '6' ball, making it go into the hole. While the boy in black looked speechless, the girl and the other boy laughed.
"Great shot." the boy in red commented.
"Lucky." the boy in black sneered.
"Actually, it's physics." Andros argued.
The boy in black looked speechless.
Elsewhere, the Professor put down a tray of carrots and celery near a bush. He then laughed as he turned around and ran towards a bunch of bins, then hid behind one saying 'Cans' on.
Skull - who was hiding in one saying 'Old Cans' - lifted the lid open slightly.
"Hey, Professor, are you sure that rabbit's an alien?" he asked.
The Professor lifted the lid up of the bin he was in.
"A rabbit? Perhaps to the untrained eye." he scoffed. "You'll see."
He and Skull ducked back down.
They and Bulk - who was hiding in one saying 'Unwanted Trash' - all lifted their heads up out of the bins.
"Shh. It's coming." Bulk hissed worriedly.
They all ducked back down, then waited silently, before the lids opened up, and a bunch of wasted food fell onto them.
"Ahh!" the Professor gasped.
Two binmen, who'd dumped the food on them, both walked away towards a blue van. The three of them then lifted their bin lids up, then Bulk shook his head to get some food off of it, while the Professor held his head device.
"This is the price you pay for science." he quoted.
He laughed as he put the device back on his head, as Bulk and Skull both turned to him.
Later, in the Surf Spot, Sara picked up some cups that had been used from a table, and put them on a tray.
"Hey, Sara." Andros said, coming up behind her.
"Ah!" Sara gasped, nearly dropping the tray. "Don't do that!"
"Sorry." Andros said.
"What is it, Andros?" Sara asked.
"I was just wondering what those two men were doing here earlier." Andros said.
"Oh, the policemen?" Sara inquired.
"Yeah." Andros answered.
"Oh, well, a van that makes deliveries for this place has been stolen." Sara explained. "Adelle's filed a report, but the police haven't had much luck yet."
"How can you be sure it was stolen?" Andros inquired.
"Because I was gagged and blindfolded from behind at the time it was stolen." Sara explained. "That's why my clothes are slightly ruined."
"Oh, I see." Andros said. "Well, look, I'm going now. If I see the van I'll come back and let you know."
"Yeah, see you." Sara said, waving as he walked away.
Once Andros made it outside, he saw the three teens from earlier around a black car. The boy in black was trying to put an old coat hanger down one of its windows - as it was rolled down - as the other two teens kept an eye out, when Andros came up behind them.
"What are you guys doing?" he asked.
The boy in black pulled the coat hanger back, and then all three teens turned to him.
"Can't get into your car?" Andros inquired.
"Yeah. Yeah, locked myself out." the boy in black quickly said. "What a pinhead I am."
"Maybe I can help you out." Andros said.
He took the coat hanger, held it against the rolled down window, then used his telekinesis to unlock the door when the teens weren't looking, shocking them once they turned.
"How'd you do that?" the girl asked curiously.
"Uh, just gotta know your cars." Andros replied.
"Yeah, and you do know your cars." the boy in black said, wrapping his arm around Andros. "I'm Chuck, this is David and Suzy. How 'bout you hang with us? We'll show you the sights and maybe, you can help us out with some of the stuff we gotta do."
"Sure." Andros said. "Sounds good. I'm Andros."
He and Chuck shook hands. Chuck then walked around to the driver's seat, while Suzy opened the passenger door, and then got in. Andros opened the door behind her, while David opened the one behind Chuck - who got in the driver's seat. Once they were all inside, they strapped themselves in, and then Chuck started up the engine and drove off, just as some people - including Sara - all came out of the Surf Spot.
"Hey!" a man called, running towards the road. "That's my car! Stop!"
Sara gasped slightly, as she'd seen Andros in the back seat.
"Andros is a thief?" she said, disbelieving. "No, that can't be. Mel wouldn't hang out with people like that."
She then thought for a minute.
"Unless he's been lying to Mel and the others, or has been tricked by those other teens, I don't know what to make of this." she sighed.
Later, Chuck drove the car along a road, while eating some chewing gum.
"Andros, gum?" he asked.
Suzy took some gum from him, and handed it to Andros.
"Uh, okay. Thanks." he said, taking it.
He put it in his mouth and then swallowed it.
"That's good." he said. "Can I have another one?"
Suzy turned to him.
"You're not suppose to swallow it." she explained. "You just chew it."
"And blow bubbles." Chuck explained, handing Andros more chewing gum.
"Here." Suzy mumbled, as she chew on some.
She then blew a pink bubble out of her mouth.
"Mmm." she mumbled, showing Andros.
He chewed on his, and then began blowing a big bubble, but then it popped.
The three teens laughed.
"There's Mikey." Chuck said, spotting someone nearby.
He pulled the car over, as Mikey walked past a few people talking, towards an old lady going through her purse. Once he got close to the old lady, he snatched her purse from her, and then ran off.
"Oh, no." a girl gasped.
Andros got out of the car, and then ran towards Mikey.
"Stop! Thief!" the old lady cried.
Andros then got in front of Mikey, and began wresting over the purse, as Chuck, David and Suzy all watched.
"Let go!" Mikey gritted. "Let go! Do it, man!"
A policeman ran towards them both, then came behind Mikey.
"That's far enough!" he scowled, wrapping his arms around Mikey, and pulled him back. "That's far enough!"
Andros took the purse off Mikey, as the old lady and the people who'd witnessed everything gathered around them.
"Thank you, young man." the policeman said, before he dragged Mikey away.
The old lady then approached Andros and hugged him tight, before backing off.
"This is yours." he said, handing her the purse.
"I must give you a reward." the old lady said.
"Reward, ma'am? You don't owe me anything." Andros assured.
He walked back towards the car as she smiled at him. Chuck and David both turned to Andros as he got back in the car, while Suzy stared at the two of them.
"If there's one thing I can't stand, it's a thief." Andros said, as he strapped in.
Chuck chewed on some chewing gum as he started up the engine, and then drove the car away.
Meanwhile, Skull had fallen asleep while the Professor patted Bulk's arm, all of them still in the bins. A white rabbit then showed up and approached the bait that had been laid out.
"There!" the Professor said, pointing at it. "The rabbit!"
He began to approach the rabbit, as Bulk tried to wake Skull up.
"Come here, you furry little alien?" the Professor dared.
"Come on!" Bulk groaned, shaking Skull's bin. "Come on, man!"
The Professor turned to the duo and shushed them, as he began approaching hem again. Voltage Hog then showed up behind him and in front of the rabbit.
"Get lost, silly rabbit!" he snarled, as the rabbit ran away.
"Hey, come on!" Skull complained, waking up.
"Come on!" Bulk gritted. "Wake up!"
The Professor patted Skull's shoulder, and then patted Bulk's face, but then they all gasped as they turned to Voltage Hog.
"Ahhh!" they screamed.
"What?!" Voltage Hog exclaimed, turning to them.
"Come on!" Bulk said, as he and Skull grabbed the Professor's shoulders. "Come on!"
They both began dragging the Professor away.
"No! No, aliens!" the Professor gasped.
"Come on!" Bulk shouted, dragging him away.
"Ahh!" Skull cried, as he followed.
Voltage Hog then turned to a power tower that was nearby.
"This is it! Give me some high voltage!" he bellowed.
The electricity from the power line then got sucked into him.
"Ah!" he sighed soothingly.
Nearby, Chuck kept driving the stolen car along a road, when Andros spotted electricity being zapped from the power tower.
"Stop the car!" he said urgently.
"Huh?" Chuck muttered.
"Stop the car!" Andros repeated.
Chuck pulled over near a path, and then Andros got out.
"Sorry, but I just remembered something I have to do." he apologised, closing the door.
He then ran off, as the three teens looked at him, and then David and Chuck got out.
"Need a hand?" David called.
"Hey, bonehead. We got business to take care of, remember." Chuck reminded him.
Andros ran around a building, then looked around, and then saw Voltage Hog near another electric tower. He hid behind the building as Voltage Hog laughed while sucking in more electricity.
"Let's Rocket!" he shouted, pushing his right hand forward, and then pulled it back towards his morpher.
(Morph sequence)
The morpher opened up, and he began pressing buttons on it.
"3,3,5!"
He then hit enter, and the lights beside the numbers lit up.
Andros then morphed into his Ranger suit, as he spun around, and the words 'Morphing Complete' came up, then his helmet symbol glowed.
(End morph sequence)
He then jumped up and fired his Astro Blaster at Voltage Hog, hitting him in the shoulders, and then he landed on his knees.
"Okay, Voltage Hog, it's time to pull your plug!" he announced, getting up and putting his Astro Blaster away.
"Careful, Red Ranger. When I'm charged up, I got a short-fuse!" Voltage Hog warned.
"Spiral Saber!" Andros shouted, holding his hands out by his chest like he was holding a camera.
He then spun around and brought out his weapon, then did a fighting pose while holding it.
Voltage Hog then charged at him, and then he charged back. Andros then jumped and tried to hit him with his Spiral Saber, but missed slightly, but then he spun around and hit him in the chest.
Andros then tried to hit him again, but he grabbed the saber, and then hit the saber, making Andros spin around. He then sent a punch at Andros, who blocked it with his elbow, then blocked another punch with his saber, before hitting him in the chest with the butt of it. Andros then blocked a kick from him with his saber, then he kicked him in the side, and then again in the chest, knocking him down.
"Whoa!" Andros gasped.
Voltage Hog got back up and growled, while Andros jumped up, flipped through the air, then sliced him down the chest, and then across it.
"Ahh!" Voltage Hog groaned, backing away.
"Had enough?" Andros asked.
"I'll be back!" Voltage Hog swore, before he vanished in a flash of lighting.
Andros gasped, then looked at all the electric power towers and generators.
"What's he up to?" he wondered.
He turned around while putting his morpher to his mouthpiece.
"Alpha, you and DECA keep a lookout for that monster." he instructed. "I have a feeling we haven't seen the last of him."
"You got it." Alpha understood, as Andros ran off.
Later, he walked past a warehouse, now de-morphed, but then stopped when he saw the car he'd been in parked next to it.
"Huh?" he muttered.
He then walked past it, to see if Chuck, David and Suzy were nearby. He walked past a small building, the entered a junkyard, and saw the three of them near a white van.
"You gonna help me or what?" Chuck asked rudely, pulling a chair out of the van.
He gave it to David, who then put it down.
"Yeah, got it." David said.
Chuck pulled out another chair from the van, and then he and David put it down, when Suzy spotted Andros and turned to him.
"Hey, Andros." she said.
Chuck and David both turned to him.
"Hey, that's Adelle's missing van." Andros realized, spotting a sign saying 'Surf Spot' on the side.
He approached the teens, as Chuck did the same, while chewing some chewing gum.
"She loaned it to us, permanently." he explained.
Andros looked around, and began to feel like he'd been tricked, as he looked at the wrecked cars all over. He then turned around and saw some ones that looked brand new and stolen.
"You! You're the thieves!" he realized. "You're the ones who gagged Sara."
Chuck just smirked.
"I thought we were becoming friends?" Andros accused. "David? Suzy?"
The two teens turned to each other uneasily.
"Well..." Suzy said softly, as Chuck turned to them.
He then turned back to Andros, looking pleased with himself, while the other two kept looking uneasy.
"These cars are all going back to their owners." Andros told them.
He then walked off, as Chuck turned to the others.
"Back to their owners?" he scoffed, turning to Andros and then back to David and Suzy. "He's crazy!"
He began to walk off, when David grabbed his arm, making him turn to him.
"Just leave him alone." David said.
Chuck shrugged David's arm off, and then walked away, leaving David and Suzy confused.
Later, Voltage Hog showed up in the middle of the junkyard, and then laughed. Chuck came out from behind him, then looked around, but gasped when he saw him.
"More voltage." Voltage Hog sneered.
He then turned around to Chuck, and laughed hilariously, and then charged at him.
"Ahh!" Chuck yelped, as he turned and ran away.
He then however stopped and turned, allowing Voltage Hog to grab him by the shirt. He then threw Chuck away, making him yelp before he landed in front of a truck. He then approached Chuck as he tried to get back up, then grabbed him by the shirt, and lifted him up.
"Ahh!" Chuck whimpered. "Uh! Let go! Let go!"
David and Suzy both ran past some wrecked cars, and then towards Chuck's voice.
"Let go!" he cried.
Voltage Hog laughed.
"Let go!" Chuck cried
David and Suzy both ran into the alley of junk, and then saw Voltage Hog and Chuck.
"Put me down!" Chuck begged. "Put me down!"
Voltage Hog threw Chuck away towards a white van, which he then landed in front of.
"Chuck?!" David and Suzy cried.
They both ran towards him, as Voltage Hog laughed, and then they helped Chuck up.
"Boy, are you guys in for a shock!" Voltage Hog sneered, walking towards them.
David gasped, as Andros came running up behind Voltage Hog. He then jumped up and kicked him in the back of the shoulder, making him groan, as he landed in front of the teens.
"You want them, you gotta go through me!" Andros snarled, pointing at Voltage Hog.
The three teens stared at him and Voltage Hog.
"Glad to oblige!" he spat.
He then charged at Andros, who then kicked him in the chest, then again in the side. He then blocked a punch from him with his hands, then blocked a knee attack from him with his hands, then another punch, but then he was kneed in the chest.
"Come on!" Chuck said, as he began to ran off.
He turned to David and Suzy as they stood still.
"Come on!" he said.
They both followed him as he ran away, then Andros ducked as Voltage Hog tried to whack him in the head. Andros then kicked him in the side, as David and Suzy stopped and turned to them both.
Chuck kept running off, checking back every now and then, then ran behind a wrecked red car.
Andros then blocked a kick from Voltage Hog, and then kicked him in the chest.
Suzy and David turned and nodded to each other.
"Come on." Suzy said, as they ran towards Andros.
Andros spun around to kick Voltage Hog, but missed as he ducked. then blocked a kick from him, before kicking him in the chest, knocking him back.
David and Suzy ran between a few vehicles, then turned and saw some rubber tries and a bin. Suzy picked up one of the tries, then David picked up the bin, then they ran towards Andros.
Voltage Hog whacked Andros in the chest, making him twirl around as he hit the ground. He then laughed as he approached Andros, who clutched his chest, when David and Suzy threw the bin and tire at him, hitting him in the chest, knocking him down. Andros turned to the pair of them, as they ran towards him, and then helped him up.
"You okay?" Suzy asked.
"Yeah." Andros grunted. "Thanks."
They all stared at Voltage Hog as he groaned.
"Come on. Let's get outta here." Andros said.
The three of them turned around and ran away, and then behind the red car Chuck had ran past, just as Voltage Hog got up.
"Huh?" he muttered, confused as he couldn't see them. "Where did they go? They won't get away that easily!"
He then vanished.
Suzy, David and Andros ran between a bunch of piled up cars, and then stopped near some.
"Well, I guess you guys aren't so bad after all." Andros remarked, turning to the teens.
Suzy held her thumb up while David nodded, and then they both ran away, while Andros hid behind some of the cars. He then checked out from behind them, and saw David and Suzy were out of sight, and then checked to see if he was clear.
"Let's Rocket!" he shouted.
(Morph sequence)
The morpher opened up, and he began pressing buttons on it.
"3,3,5!"
He then hit enter, and the lights beside the numbers lit up.
Andros then morphed into his Ranger suit, as he spun around, and the words 'Morphing Complete' came up, then his helmet symbol glowed.
(End morph sequence)
A little later, Electricity moved along a bunch of power lines and towers, and then Voltage Hog showed up near them. Electricity then came out of the towers, and then got sucked into him, but then he turned as Andros showed up and jumped up at him.
Andros tried to punch him, but missed as he moved slightly, and then punched him in the chest, causing him to hit the ground on his back, but he quickly got back up and turned to him.
"Ahh!" he growled.
He charged towards Voltage Hog, but then green lasers hit him from behind, causing him to moan as they hit the ground, and then he fell over and rolled down a hill.
Ecliptor then showed up, as Andros got up to his knees, and then turned to him.
"Ecliptor!" he gasped.
"This time, I'm going to finish you once and for all!" Ecliptor promised. "Soon, Astronema will rule the Earth!"
He laughed, as Andros got to his feet.
"I don't think so, Ecliptor!" he retorted. "That'll never happen! Not as long as the Power Rangers are around to defend it!"
"Perhaps they won't be around as long as you think!" Ecliptor sneered.
"Whose gonna stop us?" Andros inquired.
"That would be me!" Ecliptor answered.
Andros punched his fist. "Never! Come on?!" he dared, holding his right hand out with his fingers apart, and his left fist by his chest.
Ecliptor growled while holding his hand out, then Andros raised his right over his head, which was his fighting pose, and then they began circling each other. Ecliptor then sniggered, as Andros held his right hand like a chopper, and his left fist up, and then they charged at each other.
Andros then sent a punch at Ecliptor, who dodged it and grabbed his arm, then pushed it down, and then hit him in the back, knocking him down onto his side. He quickly got back up, but then Ecliptor kicked him in the chest, and then clawed him in the chest, knocking him down onto his chest.
"Ugh!" Andros groaned, before getting back up.
He brought his Astro Blaster out, and then fired it at Ecliptor, but the blasts just ricocheted off him. Ecliptor then fried lasers out of his eyes, which hit Andros in the chest, knocking him down.
"Ahh!" Andros groaned, as he hit the ground.
He then got back up while clutching his arm.
"Is that all you got, Ecliptor?!" he groaned.
"You haven't seen anything yet!" Ecliptor sneered.
Andros put his Astro Blaster away.
"Yeah? Well, give it your best shot!" he dared.
Ecliptor fired green lighting out of his hand, which wrapped around Andros, and then dragged him along the ground. Ecliptor laughed as he dragged Andros along the ground on the small hill above him, and then again along the ground near him. He then retracted the lighting, and then Andros groaned as sparks came out of his suit, making him turn onto his chest, but then he pulled himself up, and turned to Ecliptor.
"That's it! Spiral Saber!" Andros shouted, bringing it out. "You're history!"
He jumped up, and then dived towards Ecliptor, and then hit him on the shoulder, but the hit had no effect. Ecliptor then grabbed his Spiral Saber, as he tried to punch him.
"I think you're the one that's history!" he retorted, lifting the Spiral Saber up, as Andros kept hold of it.
He then bashed the saber against his knee, slicing it in half, then he slapped Andros in the chest, and then again in the face, knocking him down, landing face first into a puddle.
"Ugh!" he groaned.
Ecliptor then matched over, and then put his foot on Andros' head, keeping it pinned in the puddle.
"Aghh!" Andros growled.
"Andros!" a voice called.
Ecliptor turned and saw the other Rangers - already morphed - running towards them.
"We're coming!" Carlos called.
"Hang on, Andros!" Mel called.
Andros then pulled his right arm out of the puddle. Ecliptor then fired his eye lasers at the others, hitting the ground in front of them, and knocking them off their feet.
"Ahh!" they moaned.
"We better do something fast." Ashley realized, as they got to their knees.
"Any ideas?" Mel asked.
"Carlos, DECA's new weapon." Cassie suggested.
Carlos looked at the diagram for the new weapon in his helmet, showing all five of their weapons. The Satellite Stunner went at the front, then the Lunar Lance attached itself to the back, then the Astro Axe went beneath them, then the Star Slinger went beneath the Lunar Lance and behind the Astro Axe, and then the Solar Spear went on top of it - the pointy end going through the Satellite Stunner.
"Right." he said, once the weapons were combined. "Quadro Blaster, online!"
He then held the new weapon out.
"Alright, Ecliptor, let's see what you're made of?!" he dared.
He crouched down and aimed the Quadro Blaster.
"Alright." he grinned.
The others all got behind him - Mel and Cassie on his right, Ashley and TJ on his left.
"Check your aim." Cassie advised, as she and Ashley touched his shoulders.
"Yeah, and watch out for Andros." Ashley cautioned.
"Make it count." Mel said, touching Cassie's right shoulder, while TJ touched Ashley's left.
"Let's do it." TJ said, as he touched Mel's left shoulder, who touched his right.
"Quadro Blaster..." Carlos said.
"Huh?" Ecliptor muttered.
"..fire!" Carlos shouted.
The Quadro Blaster then fired a blast, which hit Ecliptor, knocking him up and away from Andros, but then he vanished as Andros got back up.
"Great shot!" he remarked.
The others all ran towards him, and then TJ and Carlos touched his shoulders.
"Are you okay?" Carlos asked.
"Yeah, but we're not done yet, guys." Andros replied, as he turned around and ran off.
The others then followed him, and then Voltage Hog - who was standing near a power tower - turned to them all.
"Blaster power!" TJ shouted, as they all brought out their Astro Blasters.
"Fire!" they all shouted, firing their blasters.
The blasts however, ricocheted off Voltage Hog, who then fired lighting at them, which hit them all.
"Ahh!" they moaned, as an explosion knocked them down.
"Man, that guy packs a punch!" Carlos groaned, as they got up.
"Yeah." TJ agreed.
"While we've been busy with Ecliptor, Voltage Hog's been charging up!" Andros realized.
"Oh, just great." Mel groaned, hitting the ground with her fist.
Voltage Hog sucked in more energy from the power towers, before turning to the Rangers. He then fried more lighting at them, hitting and knocking TJ and Ashley down the hill, but the others all ran and managed to dodge it. He then fired more lighting at the four of them, which just barely missed them, and then they rolled away.
"I have an idea." Carlos said, turning to the girls. "Cassie, you distract him with your Satellite Stunner, and Mel, you use your boom box to assist.
"Right." Cassie said.
"Got it." Mel agreed.
Cassie brought out her Satellite Stunner, and then fired it at Voltage Hog. Mel then raised her arms over her helmet, then lowered them, and then her helmet symbol lit up. Both then sent sonic waves through the air towards Voltage Hog, who then moaned before sparks came out of him.
"Carlos, let's combine the Quadro Blaster and my Astro Blaster." Andros suggested.
"You got it." Carlos agreed.
He brought out the Quadro Blaster, while Andros brought out his Astro Blaster, and then they both fired at Voltage Hog, hitting him hard.
"Ahh!" he groaned, as they fired again. "Ahh!"
One of his red petals fell off his chest.
"Yeah." Andros said, twirling his blaster.
The Rangers all gathered together.
Onboard the Dark Fortress, Astronema was watching the whole thing.
"Fire the Satellasers!" she commanded.
The Satellasers then fired from the Dark Fortress towards Earth.
The Satellasers then hit Voltage Hog as he got back up, making him grow giant.
"Astro Megazord power now!" Andros shouted into his morpher.
The front of the Megaship then split in half, and went down either side of it.
The shuttle - now separated from the Megaship - spun around as it flew back towards it. The front of the Megaship then split in half, and went down either side of it, as the shuttle flew towards the top of the bits that split.
The Rangers then jumped into it, then it dived towards Voltage Hog as he turned to it. It then landed on the ground and then they faced each other.
Voltage Hog then fired a tentacle at Astro Megazord, which then wrapped around its neck. He then moved his body around, making it follow.
"This plan's about to backfire." Andros declared, pulling a lever back.
The Astro Megazord grabbed the tentacle, and then pulled and then threw Voltage Hog behind him.
"Ahhh!" he yelped.
He hit the ground, then the Astro Megazord lifted him back up and threw him behind it again.
"Astro Megazord Saber!" Andros shouted.
The Astro Megazord brought out its saber, which then glowed yellow, and then threw it like a spear at Voltage Hog, hitting him in the shoulder, making him short-circuit.
"Saber ignition ready!" Andros shouted, before pressing a button behind the lever. "Fire!"
The saber then glowed brighter, making Voltage Hog cried in pain, before he fell back and was destroyed. The saber then through the air, and then the Astro Megazord caught it, and then it stood at ease.
Later that day, outside the Surf Spot, Chuck was trying to hot wire a red jeep in the parking lot. He then gasped however, and saw two cops looking down on him - as he was lying down.
"Hello, officers." he said nervously, trying to bluff out. "I can explain."
"Sure you can. Let's go." one officer said.
The other grabbed Chuck's arm, and pulled him out of the jeep.
Meanwhile, inside, the Rangers were all sitting around a table, all but Andros going over their test results, when Sara came over with a tray of drinks.
"Here you go, guys." she said, handing Ashley a smoothie.
"Thanks, sis." Mel smiled, as Sara handed her hers.
She then put four more down on the table, and then walked off.
"What you get for number 5?" TJ asked Carlos.
"Here you go." Adelle said, handing a man a drink at the counter, as Sara walked towards her. "One fresh patch."
"I'll be right back." Andros told the others.
He got up and turned to Adelle and Sara, as Adelle began putting food on another table.
"Adelle, I need to speak to you." he said.
"I'm listening, Andros." Adelle said, as she walked off.
"Well, it's private." Andros explained, as they approached another table. "And important."
Adelle put some food on the table, and then turned to Andros.
"Boy, is it today." she sighed, before walking off.
Andros followed her to another table, as she put some more food on it.
Everybody has something important to say to me." Adelle quoted.
She turned to Andros, as Sara came towards them.
"Well, it'll just have to wait until Sara and I hear their important news." she explained, pointing to Suzy and David, who were sitting at another table.
Andros turned to the two teens, who looked nervous, and then Adelle and Sara walked towards them both.
"Hi, I'm Adelle. Sara said you wanted to see me." Adelle explained.
"Yeah. We wanted to say...um..." David began.
"We wanted to apologise." Suzy explained.
"Apologise?" Sara questioned, confused. "For what?"
"We were so stupid." Suzy sighed.
"What was stupid?" Adelle inquired.
Suzy and David turned to each other, then David sighed as he took out the keys for the van that were in his pocket.
Andros looked shocked by what they were doing.
"My delivery van?" Adelle gasped.
"How did you find it?" Sara inquired.
"Yeah...Oh." Adelle realized.
"You were the people who gagged and blindfolded me?!" Sara exclaimed.
David nodded.
"We're sorry about that." Suzy explained. "It was Chuck's idea, and he wasn't sorry for what he did unlike us."
"Well, any fool in the world can make a mistake." Adelle said. "But it takes someone with a big heart and a truckload of courage to admit they made a mistake."
"We'll make it up to you, Mrs. Ferguson." Suzy promised.
"Yeah. We could do the dishes or clean or whatever you want." David said.
Adelle chuckled. "Fine. You want to help? I've got just the idea." she said, picking the keys up. "You make the deliveries."
She handed them to David.
"And no speeding." Adelle added. "Check the map before every trip, and don't forget the napkins. And never, call me Mrs. Ferguson. My friends call me, Adelle."
The two teens smiled at her, while Sara turned from them to her. She then walked off, as Sara turned back to the teens.
"Uh, no hard feelings, Sara." Suzy said.
"No hard feelings. Everyone deserves second chance." Sara smiled, before walking off.
Andros then walked towards his friends - Ashley and Cassie both having seen the conversation. He then sat down between them, as Carlos and Mel put their tests down.
Meanwhile, onboard the Dark Fortress, Astronema was looking at the viewing screen, which showed Skull inside the back of the Professor's van. He pressed a button on a control panel, then turned to Bulk and the Professor.
"You knew that rabbit was an alien? I'll never doubt you again." he promised.
(The van)
The Professor held up a chemical tube, as the duo looked at him.
"Prefect." he said.
Bulk then snatched the tube from him, making him yelp.
"Careful!" he cautioned, as Bulk shook the tube. "If you shake this, it goes kaboom!"
Bulk gasped.
(Dark Fortress)
Astronema played with her hair.
"Voltage Hog was a disaster!" she spat. "But the Professor's 'kaboom'? I like kaboom."
She then sniggered as she planed her next attack.
Next time on Power Rangers in Space...
Mel stands along in the hallway of Angel Grove High, staring at a new boy.
"Hi." he said.
"Uh...hi." Mel blushed.
Mel hums happily while walking past Ashley in the recreation room.
"You seem pretty happy?" Ashley smirked.
"Oh, I am." Mel sighed dreamily.
Mel faces a monster by herself at the beach.
"You'll pay for what you've made me do!" she growled, pointing at it.
She then ducked under a punch from it, before it kicked her in the chest.
Mel sits at a table in the Surf Spot, playing with a straw in her milkshake.
She and Ashley then glare at each other in the park.
"There's something not right with him!" Ashley argued.
"Oh, are you jealous, Ash?" Mel retorted angrily.
Mel meets the boy in a parking lot, standing near a car.
"You ready to go?" he asked.
"Yes." Mel blushed.
They both got into the car, as Ashley watched from a distance, before the car drove off.
A/N: Mel's helmet power allows her to send sonic waves through the air, and listen to noises at far away distances, at least if it was in the Sentai version.
