Last time on Power Rangers in Space...
A Barilling bug buzzes past some trees.
..while looking for Zordon, Carlos...
Carlos clutches his hand as its stung by the bug.
..is stung by a...
Carlos lies on his side in the med bay, with weird colored veins all over his body.
..Barillian bug, transforming him into a monster.
The girls all stare at his monster form.
"Carlos?" Ashley questioned.
"Is that you?" Mel gasped.
He stings Cassie...
Andros pulls Cassie's hair back, showing the sting mark on her neck.
..and transforms her.
Andros opens up a medical case, showing a few small vials, and a tranquilizer gun.
Andros finds the only cure on KO-35...
He and TJ stare at Darkonda, before giving TJ the case.
..and gives it to TJ.
TJ fires the antidote at Cassie and Carlos on the Megaship.
TJ administers it just in time.
"You alright?" TJ asked, helping Cassie up with Alpha.
Mel and Ashley help Carlos up.
But the Rangers still had to...
The Astro Megazord slashed a Barillian bug across the chest with its saber.
..administer the final vaxsain.
Barillain bug turns into fire and shoots towards the sky.
Then Astronema learns...
Astronema and Ecliptor stare at Darkonda on the Dark Fortress.
"The Red Ranger is the only true Space Ranger." he explained, walking towards them. "Separate him from the others, and they'll fall apart."
Onboard, the Megaship, the Rangers were having a game of basketball on the SimuDeck, which was turned into a court, and they all were wearing spots jackets. Carlos and Ashley were one team, while Andros and TJ were another, as Cassie and Mel stood on the sidelines and kept score. Carlos dibbled the ball past Andros towards the hoop, which he then shot the ball towards, and then it went through the net.
"Points." Cassie smiled.
"Nice shot." Mel remarked.
"Ha, that was luck." TJ said, as Andros bounced the ball away.
"That was skill." Carlos argued.
"Come on, Andros." TJ said.
"Get him, Ashley." Carlos said.
Ashley giggled.
"Ha, ha, let's go." TJ grinned, clapping his hands.
Andros bounced the ball on the ground, then chest passed it to TJ, but Ashley caught it and bounced it on the ground. She then moved closer to the hoop, then shot the ball towards it, and scored.
"Whoo!" Ashley cheered, as Carlos caught it.
"2 points!" Mel cheered.
"Next shot, wins the game." Cassie grinned.
"No pressure, Teej." Carlos grinned, holding the ball.
Ashley chuckled as Carlos tossed TJ the ball.
"Alright." he said, before he walked towards Andros. "Don't worry about it."
He handed him the ball.
"I got another trick up my sleeve." he said. "Remember that play?"
"Yeah." Andros said, knowing what he was thinking.
"Come on." Carlos said, as Andros walked away slightly while bouncing the ball. "What are you guys waiting for?"
"Yeah, let's go." Ashley said, as Andros turned to TJ.
She and Carlos laughed as Andros bounced the ball on the ground, then ran and passed it to TJ, who then bounced it on the ground.
"I think I know what they're doing." Mel whispered to Cassie.
Carlos and Ashley watched TJ moved towards Andros - who'd turned around and put his hands together - and then boosted TJ up into the air. TJ then grabbed the ball, then flipped forward through the air as everyone looked up at him, and then he threw the ball into the hoop, scoring.
Everyone laughed as he landed on the ground.
"Whoo!" Cassie cheered, as she ran towards him. "Oh, man, that was out of this world."
Andros then picked up the ball as the others approached him.
"Cool move." Mel commented, patting TJ's arm.
"Oh, man..." Carlos said, as TJ and Andros shook hands. "That was pretty cool."
"2 points." Cassie smiled.
"Rangers, we have reached Brokaya." DECA reported.
"Stop simulation." Andros ordered.
He and the girls walked away.
"What'd call that?" Carlos asked.
"I've been working on it." TJ replied, as the simulation turned back to the SimuDeck.
Andros put the ball down as they all ran out of the room.
"By the way, nice D." TJ commented, bringing up the rear.
"Thanks, man." Carlos said.
The door then closed behind them, and then later, they all shot down to Brokaya.
Once on the planet, Ashley and Mel both held a satellite dish up, as TJ held a scanner near it, and Andros sat crouched near a control panel, while Carlos and Cassie were keeping an eye out for intruders.
"Do you have the configuration set?" TJ asked.
Andros turned to Carlos and Cassie, and then back to the control panel, as he typed.
"Not quite." he answered. "Almost there."
Carlos looked at a scanner he was holding while Cassie kept looking around.
"Still nothing rippling." he said, turning to the others. "We gotta hurry."
"Let's go." Andros hissed quietly. "Anyone sees us and this whole mission is worthless. Come on."
He folded the keyboard up.
He and the others then all ran off, unware that Darkonda was watching them from on top of a cliff, who then laughed.

Later, onboard the Megaship, the Rangers all stood together on the bridge. Andros and Cassie pressed buttons on the center controls, as Carlos walked towards them, while TJ walked towards Mel and Ashley, who were working on the handle controls.
"So this interstellar scanner, is that much faster?" Carlos inquired, as TJ walked towards the right side controls.
"It can search a whole galaxy like 'that'." Andros explained, clicking his fingers. "We'll find Zordon long before Dark Specter can steal his powers."
"The interstellar scanner's online." Cassie reported, as TJ approached them.
"Activating." Andros said, pressing buttons on the controls.
Mel and Ashley came towards the others, and then they all looked at a scanning screen on the left side controls.
"Beginning scan as Nath-A-N-B." DECA reported, as the screen went fuzzy.
(Brokaya)
The satellite moved around slightly.
(Astro Megaship)
The Rangers looked at the screen, as it showed parts of deep space.
"Wow." TJ said amazed.
"Wow." Carlos agreed.
(Brokaya)
The satellite moved around again.
(Astro Megaship)
"Man, that's really fast." TJ commented, as the screen kept dashing from area to area.
"Sure is." Mel agreed.
"You think this'll really work?" Cassie asked.
"It's just a matter of time now." Andros assured.
Meanwhile, Astronema was asleep in her bedroom on the Dark Fortress. Darkonda then entered the room as the door opened, waking Astronema up and making her turn to him while getting up.
"Whose there?!" she demanded.
Darkonda stepped closer to her.
"It is I, Darkonda, at your service, Princess of Darkness." he said, bowing.
Astronema picked up her staff and pointed it at him.
"Never, ever, sneak up on me again!" she warned angrily.
"Of course. I apologise. Perhaps I should speak with Ecliptor instead." Darkonda said, as he turned slightly, while Astronema pulled her staff back. "Except that... Well, may I speak openly?"
"Be quick!" Astronema hissed.
"Ecliptor is a mighty warrior. worthy of great admiration." Darkonda admitted. "But intelligence is not his strong point."
"Ecliptor has been my trusted protector since I was a child." Astronema told him, before pointing her staff at him. "I should destroy you for your comments."
"Perhaps. But Ecliptor has made an oversight, that may allow the Power Rangers to find Zordon." Darkonda explained. "In that case, Dark Specter would destroy you both."
Astronema pulled her staff back, just as Ecliptor showed up.
"Darkonda." he hissed.
Darkonda gasped as he turned to him.
"Why are you here?" Ecliptor demanded, entering the room.
"He tells me you've made a great oversight." Astronema explained.
"What oversight?" Ecliptor inquired.
"The Power Rangers have hidden an interstellar scanner, allowing them to search for Zordon with great speed." Darkonda explained.
"You lie!" Ecliptor snarled angrily.
"You hope he lies." Astronema corrected. "Go with him, and bring me back this scanner, or else!"
"Yes, my queen." Darkonda understood, bowing.
Ecliptor turned to him, before they both walked out of the room.
Back on the Megaship, the Rangers were still standing on the bridge.
(Brokaya)
The satellite kept moving around.
(Astro Megaship)
TJ pressed buttons on the center controls, while Ashley walked away from Alpha towards him. Carlos and Mel worked on the handle controls, while Andros and Cassie worked near TJ.
"Picking up unidentified ship." DECA reported.
The Rangers all gathered together near Andros and Cassie, and then they all looked at the screen scanner on the right side controls.
"On screen, now." DECA reported.
The screen then showed a spaceship moving towards the planet.
"It looks like Dark Specter's ship." TJ grinned, as the Rangers smiled.
"DECA, can you get a position?" Andros asked.
"I am working on that now." DECA assured.
"Zordon's gotta be on that ship." Andros said hopefully.
(Brokaya)
Darkonda growled as he turned to Ecliptor, both of whom were standing on the planet's surface.
"What would Astronema think if I told her the truth about you?" Darkonda wondered.
"It would only hurt her, so don't!" Ecliptor advised.
They both walked closer to the satellite.
"Oh, I won't. So long as you do as I say." Darkonda assured. "Over there, destroy it!"
They both fired lasers out of their eyes at the satellite, which then hit and damaged it.
(Astro Megaship)
The Rangers kept looking at the ship on the screen, when it suddenly went fuzzy, shocking them all. Andros and Cassie both tried to get the signal back, but were unable too.
"Not receiving signal from scanner." DECA reported.
"What could've happened?" Mel questioned.
"Somebody's tampered with it." Andros realized. "Let's go."
They all turned around and ran towards the door. They then all ran towards their jump tubes, then ran onto the platform near them, as the grabbed the handle bars.
"Ready?" Andros asked.
The others nodded.
"Let's do it." Andros said.
They all dived down their tubes, and then shot down towards Brokaya.
On Brokaya, Darkonda and Ecliptor turned around as they heard a noise.
"Huh?" Darkonda muttered.
Andros then dived down towards a rock, followed by Carlos who flipped forward, then TJ, Ashley, who flipped forward, Cassie, and then Mel, who flipped forward.
"Rangers?" Ecliptor questioned, as he and Darkonda turned to them once they landed on the rock. "So nice to see you!"
"Can't say the same!" Andros retorted, as the Rangers held their right hands up in front of them like holding a blaster.
Andros helmet symbol lit up, followed by Carlos', TJ's, Ashley's, Cassie's and Mel's.
"Hyah!" they shouted, pushing their right hands forward with their fingers apart, while holding their left fists by their chests.
"Let's get 'em, traitor." Ecliptor said, turning to Darkonda.
"After you." Darkonda insisted.
Ecliptor then charged at the Rangers, as Andros brought out his Spiral Saber, and then jumped off the rock. He then dived towards Ecliptor and tried to hit him with his saber, but Ecliptor blocked it with his sword.
"Ranger, listen..." Ecliptor hissed.
"What?" Andros said confused.
Darkonda then charged at them, and sliced Ecliptor in the back with his sword.
"Ahh!" Ecliptor moaned, as Darkonda sent some wrapping out of his arm, which then hit his back.
He then sent orange lighting through the band, which then hit Ecliptor, making Andros back away as he was knocked to the ground. He rolled along it, before getting back up, as the other Rangers gathered behind him.
Ecliptor then fell to his knees as he moaned.
"Darkonda, what are you doing?!" he demanded.
"Something I should've done a long time ago!" Darkonda hissed. "Astronema will think you've gone down in battle."
"What?!" Ecliptor exclaimed. "You won't get away with this!"
"I already have!" Darkonda snarled. "First I'll take your powers, then hers!"
His body then lit up, before it zapped straight into Ecliptor's, which then sent sparks out of it. The Rangers gasped as Darkonda and Ecliptor began to merge into one, the former of which laughing as they did.
"What's happening to 'em?" Cassie wondered.
"It looks like they're transforming!" Ashley gasped. "But into what?!"
"More like merging into one!" Mel argued frantically.
Lighting then came out of Darkonda's and Ecliptor's bodies, making the Rangers shield their visors.
"Ahh!" they moaned, as sparks went off in front of them.
"What is that?!" Andros gasped, as they looked at the combined form of Darkonda and Ecliptor.
Darkonda's laugh came from the body as it moved forward, while carrying both swords.
"Don't be alarmed, Rangers." it said in Darkonda's voice. "It's just me, Darkliptor! I was bad before, but I'm twice as bad now!"
Andros chuckled as he walked forward.
"And just when I thought you couldn't get any uglier." he joked.
Darkliptor growled.
"Astro Blaster, fire!" Andros shouted, as the Rangers brought out their Astro Blasters.
They all fired at Darkliptor, but his new body deflected the blasts. He then put his swords together, crossed them over, and then fired a beam out of them at the Rangers. Mel and the boys all jumped out of the way as it came towards them, but Cassie and Ashley were unfortunate, and then they froze up inside a container.
"What?!" Andros exclaimed, as the four of them looked at them. "They're frozen solid!"
"That is unforgivable!" Mel growled.
"What did you do to them?!" Andros demanded, turning to Darkliptor.
Darkliptor laughed.
"Alright, that's it!" Andros shouted.
"No, Andros!" TJ urged, as he grabbed his arm. "We've gotta think this through."
"I'm done thinking!" Andros snapped, pushing TJ away.
Andros then charged at Darkliptor.
"Wait!" TJ called.
"Andros, no!" Mel cried.
Andros then tried to hit Darkliptor with his Spiral Saber, but missed as he blocked with Ecliptor's sword, and then hit him in the chest with both, knocking him down.
"Andros!" Mel cried, as she ran towards him.
She then brought out her Solar Spear, and then as Darkliptor tried to hit Andros with Ecliptor's sword, but she managed to get between them and block it with her spear.
"Out of my way!" he snapped.
"Never!" Mel bellowed.
Darkliptor growled, before kicking her in the belly, and then hit her in the chest with Darkonda's sword, knocking her down. He then raised Ecliptor's word up to strike both her and Andros, when TJ jumped up and landed between them all, taking the slice across his chest. Darkliptor then hit TJ in the head with both swords.
"Aghhh!" he groaned.
"Noooooo!" Andros exclaimed.
"Noooo!" Mel cried.
TJ fell to his knees, and then onto his left side.
"TJ!" Andros and Mel cried.
"TJ, talk to us?!" Andros exclaimed frantically, as they held him up slightly.
"Are you okay?" Mel asked worriedly.
"Your next, you two!" Darkliptor sneered.
Carlos then pounced on him before he could move closer to them, then pulled him to the ground, and then kicked him away while pulling him over himself. They both then got up and faced each other, before Carlos turned to the others.
"Mel, Andros, come on!" he shouted. "Let's get outta here!"
Darkliptor crossed his swords over, and then fired a beam out of them, which hit Carlos.
"Ahh!" he moaned.
"Carlos!" Mel gasped, covering her mouthpiece.
Andros gasped.
"Ahh... Mel, Andros...take TJ... Ahhh! Back to... Ugh! The ship! Ahh! Hurry!" Carlos moaned, before he froze up in a container like Ashley and Cassie.
"Oh, no, Carlos is frozen too!" Andros gasped.
"That leaves just the three of us." Mel gulped.
"Hang on, TJ." Andros said. "We'll take care of you. Galaxy Gilder, hang ten!"
Mel's and Andros' Galaxy Gilders then shot down towards them, then Andros picked TJ up and put him on his back.
"Hang on, Teej." Mel said.
She and Andros then jumped onto their gilders, and then soared away from the quarry, as Darkliptor growled.
Once Andros and Mel had zapped back onto the Megaship, they laid TJ down on the table in the med bay - all of them now de-morphed. Andros pressed a few buttons on a control, while Mel looked at a tablet, just as TJ woke up, but then gasped as he sat up, while looking at the pair of them.
"Easy now." Andros said, touching his arm. "You took a hard hit."
TJ lied back down, but looked confused by his surroundings.
"You okay, TJ?" Andros asked.
"TJ? Who are you talking about?" TJ questioned, getting off the table.
"You." Mel answered. "That's your name."
"Yeah, very funny." Andros said unamused. "We've got work to do. Darkliptor still has the others. Remember?"
"No, I don't remember." TJ replied, turning to them.
"You okay, Teej?" Mel asked.
TJ turned away.
"Darkliptor?" he questioned. "And who are you two?"
"TJ, you don't know us?" Andros questioned, shocked.
"We're your friends, Mel and Andros." Mel explained.
TJ moaned while touching the side of his head.
"TJ may be suffering from amnesia." DECA deduced, freaking TJ out.
He then ran out of the room as the door opened.
"Wait, TJ." Andros called.
"TJ, come back!" Mel called, as they both chased after him.
"TJ, hold on!" Andros called.
Back on Brokaya, Darkliptor had put the other Rangers inside a cave, and then he laughed as he approached them.
"Three frozen Rangers." he snarled delightfully. "I only need three more to make my collection complete."
Astronema - wearing her battle gear - then came walking towards him with a bunch of Quantrons.
"What have you done?!" she demanded.
Darkliptor turned to her.
"Greetings, my queen." he said, as she looked at him.
"What are you?!" she hissed.
"Have no fear, my princess." Darkliptor said. "Eclitpor attacked me when I turned my back. The Rangers would've destroyed us both, so I captured him. Don't fret, he is safe, in here."
He pointed at himself, as Astronema looked at him.
"You're a curious beast, Darkonda." she commented. "Or is it Ecliptor? But you captured three Rangers."
Darkliptor chuckled.
"So you're worth keeping, for now." Astronema said. "Destroy them!"
"Wait! I need them as bait." Darkliptor explained. "Fear not. Darkness will soon fall on all the Rangers."
He laughed as Astronema glared at him.
Back on the Megaship, TJ walked out of the lift and onto the bridge, the viewing screen showing Brokaya. He touched the side of his head as he looked around, and then looked at the viewing screen.
"Outer space?" he questioned. "Where am I?"
Alpha - who was by the left controls - turned to him.
"We're orbiting the planet Brokaya." he explained, making TJ jump as he turned to him. "Oh..."
Andros and Mel then walked onto the bridge.
"This is the Astro Megaship." Andros explained, as TJ turned to them. "Think. You've got to remember. We need your help."
"My help?" TJ questioned. "I don't even know who I am."
"You need to remember who and what you are." Mel urged.
"Concentrate. You're TJ, you're the Blue Power Ranger." Andros explained.
"Blue Power Ranger?" TJ questioned.
"Yes." Mel said. "You told me you dreamt of being one since you were a kid."
TJ touched the side of his head.
"You saved us from Darkliptor." Andros added. "Concentrate."
"Incoming message." DECA reported.
The three Rangers turned to the viewing screen, which then showed Darkliptor, and the frozen Cassie.
"Remaining Rangers, return and deal with me, or I'll destroy your three friends!" he announced. "Now!"
He vanished from the viewing screen.
"Come on, we have to go." Andros said, turning to TJ.
"What?!" TJ questioned, shocked, as he turned to Mel and Andros.
"You have too." Mel told him. "Our friends are in danger."
"Well, you've made a mistake." TJ argued. "I'm not the Blue Power Ranger."
"You are!" Andros argued. "You have to! Watch us."
He and Mel took a step back.
"Ready?" Andros asked.
Mel nodded.
"Let's Rocket!" Andros shouted.
They opened their morphers up, and began pressing buttons on it.
"3,3,5!"
They then hit enter on their morphers.
(Morph sequence)
Andros then morphed into his Ranger suit, as he spun around, and the words 'Morphing Complete' came up, then his helmet symbol glowed.
Mel then morphed into her Ranger suit, as she spun around as the words 'Morphing Complete' came up, and then her helmet symbol glowed.
(End morph sequence)
TJ looked at the morpher on his left arm, and then at the two Rangers.
"Doesn't this help you remember anything?" Andros asked.
TJ looked at them both.
"Uh-uh." he muttered.
"TJ, you've got to try." Mel pleaded.
"I can't." TJ answered.
"Then we'll have to go back to the planet without you." Andros realized.
He and Mel both crossed their arms over each other like a X over their helmets, and then teleported away, making TJ gasp, before looking around the bridge.
On Brokaya, Darkliptor looked at the frozen forms of Carlos, Ashley and Cassie, which he'd placed on different parts of a cliff, laughing as he did.
"We're here, Darkliptor!" Andros bellowed, as he and Mel ran towards him.
Darkliptor turned to them.
"What took you so long, Rangers?!" he sneered, as they stopped. "And where is the Blue Ranger?"
"This time, it's just you and us!" Andros retorted, pointing at Darkliptor, and then at himself and Mel.
"You'll pay for what you've done to the others!" Mel snapped.
Darkliptor laughed as they all got ready to fight. Andros then growled while jumping up, then Mel followed him, then Andros pressed '1' on his Battlizer. He then sent a punch at Darkliptor, while Mel sent a kick, but Darkliptor hit them both with one of the swords each, knocking Andros down onto his back, and knocking Mel down right in front of him.
Andros turned around and got to his knees, just as Darkliptor stood on Mel's chest.
"Ahh!" she moaned.
"How'd you like that, Orange Ranger?" Darkliptor sneered.
"Get off her!" Andros bellowed.
Oh, shut up!" Darkliptor spat. "You would both already be frozen if your friend hadn't intervened. But he's not here to help you this time!"
He kicked Mel away as he approached Andros, who then got up and brought out his Spiral Saber, and then tried to hit him, but he blocked it with Ecliptor's sword, and then hit him with Darkonda's. Mel got to her knees while clutching her chest, as Andros got back up and tried to hit Darkliptor with his saber again, but he blocked it with both swords, making Andros spin around. Andros then tried to hit Darkliptor again, but he blocked it with both swords, and then lowered his saber, but then he pulled it away. Darkliptor then hit Andros in the chest with Darkonda's sword, and then again with Ecliptor's sword as he tried to hit him, then they turned to each other, before Darkliptor hit Andros with both swords, knocking him down.
"Andros!" Mel cried, running towards him, bringing out her Solar Spear.
Darkliptor turned to her, as she threw her spear at him, which then landed near him, making him laugh.
"You missed!" he laughed. "You've got good aim!"
"It wasn't you I was aiming at!" Mel retorted, as then crouched near Andros.
"Huh?" Darkliptor muttered.
Mel's Solder Spear then sent lighting out of itself, which then hit Darkliptor.
"Aghh!" he yelped, as he was knocked away.
"Nice throw." Andros commented, as Mel helped him up.
"Thanks." Mel said.
"Sneaky move, Orange Ranger." Darkliptor commented, getting back up. "I'm impressed."
Back on the Megaship, TJ entered the SimuDeck, and then spotted the basketball from earlier on the floor as he walked inside. He then picked the ball up, then began bouncing it on the floor, before he dropped it, while touching the side of his head, as a memory came back to him.
"Wow. Great moves, TJ." Ashley commented.
Carlos laughed. "When did you come up with that?" he asked.
"Cool move." Mel commented.
Andros bounced the ball across the court.
"Alright." Cassie commented. "2 points."
Andros passed the ball to TJ, but Ashley intercepted it, while they both laughed. Cassie and Mel both smiled as the others laughed.
"TJ, I'm open!" Andros called.
Cassie and Mel giggled.
TJ snapped out of his thoughts.
He later approached his locker on Mega Deck 1 by the jump tubes, and then opened it up slowly. He looked at the stuff that was inside, which included a flashlight, some CDs, a small file, and a picture. He picked the picture up, and saw it had himself and the other Rangers on, standing behind a wall. (Mel was on Cassie's left)
He slowly remembered what Andros and Mel had told him, although he wasn't convinced, before putting the picture back in the locker, and then he closed it. He opened up his morpher while looking at it curiously, before pressing '0' on it, which then teleported him away.
He teleported near some rocks on Brokaya, then he ran as he heard Darkliptor grunting. He then hid behind a rock, and saw Andros and Mel locking their weapons with Darkliptor's swords, then Andros ran past, while Mel rolled forward as he tried to hit them both.
TJ kept watching as Darkliptor kicked Mel in the back, knocking her onto her chest, and then he locked weapons with Andros again. Andros then tried to kick him, but missed as he ducked slightly, then he blocked a strike from both his swords with his saber. Mel then got back up and tried to stab Darkliptor with the pointed end of her spear, but missed as he backed away, and then he slashed her across the chest with Ecliptor's sword, knocking her down.
TJ looked at his morpher, opened it up again, and then began pressing buttons.
"3,3,5!"
He then pressed enter on his morpher.
(Morph sequence)
TJ then morphed into his Ranger suit, as he spun around as the words 'Morphing Complete' came up, and then his helmet symbol glowed.
(End morph sequence)
"Whoa! I am the Blue Ranger." he said, surprised, as he looked at his suit, before touching his helmet. "I don't believe it."
Darkliptor then knocked Andros down, then stood on his chest, as Mel charged at him. He the looked up, and then blocked Mel's spear with Darkonda's sword, before slashing her across the chest with Ecliptor's, knocking her down on her back.
Darkliptor then snarled as he turned to TJ, who was looking at his gloves.
"Blue Ranger!" Darkliptor bellowed.
TJ turned to him.
"No, wait!" he pleaded, his hands up.
Darkliptor growled and jumped towards him.
"Hold on a second!" TJ pleaded.
He then ducked and dodged as Darkliptor tried to hit him with both swords, then TJ rolled forward as he tried to hit him again. He then turned to Darkliptor, and grabbed his arms as he tried to hit him in the shoulders. TJ then got up while pushing the swords up, but then Darkliptor got up and threw him away onto his chest.
TJ then sat up and backed away scared, when Darkliptor began approaching him.
"I hope you're more of a match for me than your friends were!" he sneered.
He then charged at TJ as he got back up, and then slashed TJ across the chest with Ecliptor's sword, and then again with Darkonda's sword, knocking him down. Darkliptor then laughed while pointing Ecliptor's sword at TJ.
"Hold still!" he sneered. "It'll all be over quickly!"
TJ turned so he was lying on his back.
Darkliptor then fired green lighting out of Ecliptor's sword at TJ, but Andros jumped between them and took the blast.
"Ahhh!" he moaned, as an explosion went off behind him and TJ.
TJ banged his head against a rock, while Andros flipped onto his back, both of them out cold.
Darkliptor laughed.
"Better than I excepted." he grinned.
"Aghhh!" Mel growled as she dived towards him with her Solar Spear.
He blocked the strike with both his swords, then kicked her in the chest, knocking her back. She then rolled to her right as he tried to strike her with Ecliptor's sword, and then she stabbed him in the chest with the pole end of her spear, knocking him back slightly.
TJ and Andros both moaned as they regained conciseness.
"Andros..." TJ moaned.
"TJ, we'd knew you'd come down and help." Andros said, before holding his thumb up. "Thanks, man."
"Wait a minute..." TJ muttered, getting up slightly.
He touched the side of his helmet, as he began to remember.
"Cassie..."
The others all look at him on the court.
"Great shot, TJ." Andros remarked.
"Mel..."
"Cool move." Mel commented.
"Ashley..."
"That was great." Ashley commented.
"Carlos..."
Carlos laughed.
"Yeah." Andros said.
"Andros... It's all coming back."
His helmet symbol lit up, as he clutched his fist.
Mel then tried to hit Darkliptor with her spear, but he blocked it with both swords, then lowered them and the spear down, and then slashed Mel across the chest with them, knocking her down onto her chest.
"Mel!" Andros exclaimed, as Darkliptor started approaching him.
"Andros." TJ gasped, as Darkliptor sniggered.
TJ then jumped up and dived towards Darkliptor as he turned to him, and then kicked him in the chest, knocking him down.
"TJ? You remember me?" Andros gasped, as TJ helped him up.
"Of course. And I also remember the play." TJ assured.
"Alright. Let's show him some teamwork then." Andros decided.
"Right." TJ agreed, before they both ran off.
Mel got up to her feet while clutching her chest, as the two of them came behind her.
"You okay, Mel?" TJ asked.
"Yeah, I'm... TJ, you remember?" Mel gasped.
"Yeah." TJ replied.
"You ready to pound him?" Andros asked.
"You betcha." Mel said.
The three of them then ran towards Darkliptor as he got up - TJ holding both Andros' Spiral Saber, and his Astro Axe, while Mel held her Solar Spear.
"We'll, back for more?" Darkliptor snarled.
"Alright." TJ grinned.
"Let's do it!" Andros shouted, doing his fighting pose.
"Right." Mel understood.
She then threw her Solar Spear at him, which landed right behind him, but he rolled away from it as lighting came out of it.
"I won't fall for that trick again!" he snarled.
"I wasn't planning to hit you this time." Mel smirked, putting her hands on her hips.
"Huh?" Darkliptor muttered, as he turned to the boys as they charged at him.
TJ then threw both the saber and axe into the air.
"Huh?" Darkliptor muttered, even more confused.
TJ then brought out his Astro Blaster and then fired it at Darkliptor, hitting him in the chest, causing him to drop the swords. TJ then put his blaster away, then put his hands together in a boost position, then Andros jumped onto his hands before he boosted him up. Andros then grabbed both weapons, flipped himself forward, and then slashed Darkliptor across he chest with both weapons.
The three Rangers watched as Darkliptor moaned while turning around, then lighting came out of him, before he split into Darkonda and Ecliptor again.
"Yeah!" Andros grinned.
"Yes." Mel grinned.
Onboard the Dark Fortress, Astronema approached her viewing screen, and saw what had happened on Brokaya though it.
"What?!" she gasped shocked, as Ecliptor and Darkonda fell down.
On Brokaya, Carlos, Ashley and Cassie were then freed from their containers.
"Ah." Carlos gasped.
"Ahh!" Ashley gasped.
"Aghh!" Cassie gasped.
Darkonda then got up in pain, while Ecliptor moaned while lying down.
"Oh, no!" Darkonda moaned. "How could this be?! I was invincible!"
TJ and Mel ran closer to Andros as they all stared at Darkonda.
"Ha! Well, it looks like you were mistaken, Darkonda!" Andros scoffed. "Hey, nice play, TJ."
"Thanks. Ha, looks like you got it down." TJ commented. "And you really helped by getting Darkonda into position for us, Mel."
"Thanks, Teej." Mel blushed embarrassingly.
Darkonda growled.
"Get up, you weakling!" he scowled, lifting Ecliptor up. "I'm not through with you yet!"
Onboard the Dark Fortress, Astronema kept watching them on the viewing screen.
"Fire the Satellasers!" she ordered.
A Quantron pressed a button on a control panel behind her, and then Satellasers fired from the Dark Fortress towards Brokaya.
On Brokaya, Darkonda kept holding Ecliptor up, who looked dazed.
"Quickly!" Darkonda snapped, getting behind Ecliptor. "We must rejoin!"
He merged them both back together before the Satellasers hit them, making them grow giant as they became Darkliptor again.
"Whoa!" Andros, Mel and TJ gasped.
Darkliptor then tried to stomp on them, but they all rolled away. They got back up and looked at him, as the others came running towards them.
"Ashley, you okay?" TJ asked.
"Yeah." Ashley replied.
"You okay, Cas?" Mel asked.
"Yeah, I'm fine." Cassie assured.
"Hey, Teej, how 'bout you?" Carlos asked, touching TJ's shoulder.
"A-OK." TJ assured.
"Great." Carlos said.
"Do it, TJ!" Andros said.
Ashley laughed. "Alright." she grinned.
"Astro Megazord power!" TJ shouted into his morpher.
"Astro Delta Megazord online!" Andros shouted into his Battlizer.
Both the Astro Megaship - which the Rangers were now in - and the Delta Megaship flew through space. The Delta Megaship split into three pieces, the head, the legs and the body - the arms moving down, and then the cannons on either side. The front of the Astro Megaship then split in half, and went down either side of it, and went into Megazord mode.
The Delta Megazord's head then went over the Astro Megazord's, as the shuttle lifted up slightly. The Delta Megazord's chest and arms then attached themselves to the Astro Megazord, then its cannons rolled onto the Astro Megazord's shoulders, forming the Astro Delta Megazord. It's Gyro Cannons spun around as it stood at ease above Brokaya.
The Astro Delta Megazord then landed on Brokaya, and then got ready to fight, as Darkliptor growled.
He then charged at it, then hit it with Ecliptor's sword, then hit it again with both swords while running past it. He then turned around and hit it again with both swords, then tried to hit it with Darkonda's sword, but it blocked it.
"It's payback time!" TJ retorted.
The Astro Delta Megazord punched Darkliptor in the face, sending him flying to the ground.
"Gyro Blasters, online!" Andros shouted.
The Astro Delta Megazord fired its Gyro Blasters at Darkliptor as he got back up, hitting him in the chest.
"Fists, online!" TJ reported.
"Ready to fire!" Mel reported.
"Right!" Andros said, holding his fists up, then crossed them over, and then punched them forward. "Flying Power Punch!"
The Astro Delta Megazord held its fists up, then turned them sideways, before they detached. The fists then shot out, then zoomed upwards, then crossed over each other as they dived down towards Darkliptor, who separated into Darkonda and Ecliptor.
"You're taking the fall for me!" Darkonda sneered, holding Ecliptor.
The Flying Power Punch the hit them both, Ecliptor taking most of it, and an explosion went off, before they shrunk to normal size. The fists reattached themselves to the Astro Delta Megazord, which then stood at ease, as Darkonda and Ecliptor landed on the ground.
"I'm not through yet, Rangers, not by a long shot!" Darkonda sneered, as Ecliptor collapsed onto his back. "I'll get you Rangers, I promise!"
He turned to Ecliptor.
"And you, look at you, you're pathetic!" he commented rudely. "But Astronema expects me to bring you home. And I have one more use for you."
He then vanished himself and Ecliptor.
Later, both of them stood on the bridge of the Dark Fortress, some coming out of Ecliptor's body.
"Go ahead, my green friend." Darkonda sneered, getting Ecliptor to turn to him. "Tell her I attacked you, and she'll throw me out! But first, I have a few stories of my own to tell her, then she throw us both into the nearest Black Hole."
Ecliptor growled. "Not if I destroy you here and now!" he retorted angrily.
"Ah-ah." Darkonda smirked, holding his finger up.
"So it's true!" Astronema said, coming onto the bridge behind him.
Darkonda and Ecliptor both turned to her.
"Huh?" Ecliptor muttered.
"I doubted Darkonda when he said you attacked him." Astronema sneered angrily.
"No, but listen to me-" Ecliptor pleaded.
"You listen to me! You will not attack Darkonda. From now on, he is your equal." Astroname explained.
"What?!" Ecliptor exclaimed, outraged.
Darkonda chuckled, making Ecliptor growl quietly.
Meanwhile, onboard the Astro Megaship, Andros, Mel, Cassie and TJ were checking the satellite dish Darkonda and Ecliptor had damaged on Mega Deck 1. Cassie held a high-tech screwdriver at the top of it, while the others all ran a scanner over different parts of it.
"We won't be able to fix it." Andros realized, using his telekinesis to move his scanner to a table nearby.
TJ, Cassie and Mel all turned around and put their tools on the table.
"Damaged beyond repair?" Mel inquired.
"Yep." Andros replied.
TJ and Cassie then rolled the satellite dish away, as it was on a wheeled table, when Carlos and Ashley came in, Ashley bouncing the basketball from earlier. She caught the ball as they both entered the room, when the others all turned to them.
"We never finished the game." Carlos said.
"What game?" TJ inquired.
Carlos and Ashley looked confused.
"Basketball." Ashley said, tossing TJ the ball. "You don't know what that is?"
TJ looked at the ball, and then at Carlos and Ashley.
"Basketball?" he questioned, pretending he still had amnesia.
"Mm-mm." Ashley said, as Carlos nodded.
TJ look at the ball.
"These guys don't stand a chance." Ashley whispered to Carlos. "See ya."
They both waved as they walked off.
"See you later." Carlos said.
TJ then smiled and spun the ball on his finger, then winked at the others.
"This oughta be good." he said.
He laughed as he walked off, then the others all followed him.
"TJ." Cassie laughed.
Next time on Power Rangers in Space...
Andros looks at the disc containing the video of him and Karone.
..Andros remembers something important...
He puts the disc into the DVD player.
..from his past.
He looks at the viewing screen, and sees Darkonda carrying Karone away, who screams.
"Darkonda?" he questions, shocked and angry.
He touches a planet on a 3-D map on Mega Deck 1.
He goes to a planet...
He dives into his jump tube.
..and dons a disguise...
He puts on a crimson cloak, and then puts the hood over his head.
..to find Darkonda, who...
Darkonda holds an alien by the throat in a saloon.
..has stolen a magic potion.
Ecliptor gives the potion bottle to the alien in a dark room.
But unbeknownst to Darkonda, Ecliptor has tampered with it.
Darkonda, Andros and some aliens play a game at cards at a table - Darkonda holding up some keycards.
Darkonda looses Zordon's keycards to Andros...
Andros puts his cards down, showing his hand.
..in a game of chance.
The Rangers all look at Darkonda on the viewing screen on the Megaship.
"Red Ranger, if you want to know where your sister is, bring me the keycard?!" he demands.
But are they the real thing?
Alpha approaches the Rangers.
"They're genuine alright." he assures. "They came from Eltar."
"Now where you going?" Carlos asks, as Andros enters the lift.
"To find my sister." Andros replies, turning to the others.
The others follow him in.
"We're coming with you." TJ said.
