"Come everyone and see something amazing." A man said as he had a bunch of workout equipment. Joey and Abby were walking by as they were on their way to school and they spotted the crowd gathering around for this.
"What's this?" Joey asked.
"No clue." Abby said as they went to have a look.
"Do you desire to become stronger faster? By that, I mean do you want to become stronger as fast as possible? Well, it can be done with one sip of my special energy drink."
"Yeah, right." A scrawny-looking man said. "I've tried a lot of tricks to get my muscles bigger and nothing ever works."
"So you doubt me? Give it a taste and see for yourself." The man said as he handed him the drink. The scrawny guy took a sip and he did feel different from it. He soon walked over to a set of weights that was probably a hundred pounds and he lifted it up so easily. Everyone couldn't believe what they all saw.
"How can that be?!" Joey said.
"Impossible!" Abby said. Something strange was going on and they needed to find out what.
...
Angel Grove High
School was starting, but someone else had his focus on something else. Travis tried his best to make himself look good with Robby helping him out.
"Do I look good, Robby?" Travis said.
"Yeah. Sierra is going to love that you want to ask her out." Robby said.
"Yeah. I can do this." Travis said as he took a deep breath. "After what happened with that last monster, she knows girls like her are my type. So I'm going for it. I am finally going to ask Sierra out on a date" As those two were getting ready, Sierra was getting ready herself as Valerie and David were trying to help her.
"So you're really going to ask him out?" Valerie asked.
"Yeah. I'm going to take the initiative and just go for it." Sierra said. "I already know girls like me are his type, good to know. Plus, we get along well. Everything has gone great between us. I think it's finally time and rather waiting for him, I'll make the first move."
"Good for you." David said. "Here he comes." Sierra saw Travis coming and tried to get the courage to go through with it. "You think it's really going to happen?"
"I like to say yes, but I have a feeling that says otherwise." Valerie said.
"Hey Sierra/Travis. There's something I want to ask you." Both of them said at the same time.
"You first." Travis said.
"No. You." Sierra said.
"No. Ladies first." Travis said.
"It's okay. You can go." Sierra said. Both of them kept going like that. The others found this amusing until Abby and Joey came running in the halls.
"You guys!" Joey called. "You are not going to believe what we saw."
"We were on our way to school when we spotted this guy trying to sell some sort of energy drink." Abby said. "This one guy took a sip and lift a set of weights that were probably about a hundred pounds real easily. It was crazy how it happened."
"That can't be. It's scientifically impossible for a mere drink alone to make you stronger." Valerie said.
"Exactly. It's too strange." Joey said. "When something strange is going on, it usually means there's trouble."
"You think Locore has something to do with it?" David asked.
"It's a good chance." Abby said. "The guy works at a gym. We should check it out."
"You might be right. This does sound weird." Travis said. "Two of us should probably go undercover and check it out."
"Good idea. I'm sure you and Sierra together are going to do great." Robby said. He was clearly setting those two up. They might be going on a mission, but those two are going on it together.
...
The Gym
Travis and Sierra grabbed themselves some disguises and went to the gym. They had a look around, but it didn't seem like there was anything out of the ordinary. It just seemed like a normal gym.
"Excuse me." Travis said to the receptionist. "My sister and I are new in town and we heard some fine things about this gym. So we would like to join."
"Of course." The lady said as she handed the applications to Sierra. "What's your name?"
"I'm...Alvin." Travis said.
"Well, Alvin, I must say you don't need a gym." The receptionist said as he felt his muscles and Sierra got annoyed from it. "I'm Trish by the way." Travis seemed to have been enjoying it and Sierra got annoyed as she filled the application and just slammed it on the desk with her going inside. Sierra had a look around and didn't really see anything out of the ordinary.
"Here you go." She did spot that strange workout coach that Abby and Joey mentioned as he gave someone one of his drinks. "Now just come with me." He saw the two of them walked off and she went after them.
...
The Command Center
"I'm not so sure." Zultro said. The others were at the base and were trying to figure out what was going on in their end. "Gamma and I haven't detected any sign of trouble."
"That could be because they're keeping things on the downlow." David said.
"Zultro, something weird is going on. We saw it." Abby said.
"I believe you, but at the moment, I'm working on something." Zultro said as he worked on the computer.
"What is it?" Robby asked.
"A new weapon that might help you rangers out." Zultro said.
"I got it!" Valerie said as she came inside. "I was able to get my hands on one of those energy drinks. Now we can analyze it and see what's really in it."
"Give it here." Gamma said. Valerie handed it over and Gamma put some in a scanner with him running an analysis. Once the results started getting in, he saw what was in it and was quite shocked. "Aye! Oh no! This isn't good!"
...
Sierra
Sierra moved carefully as she moved through the gym and tried to follow her suspect. They watched as he entered a gymnasium and took a look for herself. She saw many people gathered together and using fighting exercises like a united army.
"What is this?" Sierra questioned. She then heard laughter and saw Dragight come out of hiding.
"Excellent work, Motabrin." Dragight said.
"I know." The coach said and turned into his true monster form. A monster wearing black armor with a cape and had a horn curving up his head. "My potion has worked well. These humans will become our obedient soldiers and the rangers wouldn't dare attack humans."
"So that's it." Sierra said. "They're brainwashing people to become soldiers." Sierra tried backing away out of there, but someone grabbed her and tossed her to the ground.
"What do we have here?" Dragight said as he grabbed her. "Care to join us, Pink Ranger!" He said as he ripped off her wig and showed her real self. They ended up getting Sierra restricted and she couldn't get her arms free. "A perfect chance to have one of the rangers come to our side."
"Right. I'm getting it ready." Motabrin said as he had a potion being mixed for Sierra. As for Travis, he noticed Sierra was gone and was looking for her.
"Where did she go?" Travis questioned as she looked around for her.
"No!" He heard Sierra call. He ditched the disguise and hurried to help her.
"Don't worry. Despite what it does, it tastes pretty good." Motabrin said as he squeezed Sierra's face to open her mouth. He was about to pour it in, but Travis arrived just in time as he kicked it out of his hands and kicked Motabrin into Dragight.
"I've got you." Travis said as he hurried to untie Sierra.
"No!" Dragight called as he and Motabrin got back up. "Get them!" Once Travis got Sierra untied, they ran out of the gymnasium with the brainwashed humans chasing after them.
"Over here!" Sierra said as she grabbed Travis and they ducked into a different path as the brainwashed humans ran past them. It seemed like the coast was clear for a moment. "What took you so long?!"
"You're upset with me?" Travis said as Sierra moved to face him.
"Yes. You couldn't pull away from Trish long enough to help me?" Sierra said.
"Trish? You think I like her?" Travis questioned.
"You tell me "Alvin"." Sierra said
"I had to come up with a name so they wouldn't know it's us." Travis said.
"And I suppose you had to let her feel your muscles too." Sierra said. Travis was finding amusement in this as he placed his hand against the wall to keep her in place.
"Are you jealous?" Travis questioned.
"Jealous?! Don't make me laugh. Duck!" Sierra said as she pulled him down to avoid Motabrin's blade.
"You two aren't going anywhere!" Motabrin said. He was about to attack them with twin blades, but Travis kicked him in the gut and they both made a run for it. Both of them were able to make it outside, but they were cut off as Dragight appeared and blocked off their escape route.
"You should have just had some of the potion. It would have been easier." Dragight said. He was ready to attack them, but he was blasted out of the way as the rangers showed up.
"You guys okay?" Joey said.
"We learned what was in that drink and got here as soon as we could." Abby said.
"Thanks, guys." Travis said.
"All of you are going to need a magic potion when I get through with you!" Motabrin called as he came out.
"You like magic? We're about to make you disappear." Travis said as he and Sierra got ready. "It's morphin time!"
"Pink Pterodactyl!"
"Red Tyrannosaurus!"
Both of them morphed and the rangers were ready to face this enemy. Both enemies charged at the rangers and fought them off. While the others were fighting Dragight, Sierra and Travis were fighting Motabrin. Sierra pulled out her bow and fired energy arrows, but Motabrin used his swords and deflected each one.
"You'll have to do better than that." Motabrin said.
"How about this?!" Travis said as he pulled out his sword and went to strike him, but Motabrin was able to block his attack with both swords. He shoved them out of the way and slashed against Travis with him being knocked to the ground.
"Travis! Are you okay?" Sierra said as she helped him.
"I think so." Travis said.
"You won't be when I'm done with you." Motabrin said and launched a cross attack at them. Both of them got hit by the attack and was blown back from it. The others were doing their best to fight Dragight as they had him surrounded, but Dragight twirled around and launched fire with all of them getting blasted by the attack. "Looks like you rangers aren't as tough as you think."
...
The Command Center
"This is bad!" Gamma said. "The rangers are getting beaten around! That monster is just too strong for them!"
"Which is why I have this ready." Zultro said as he was inputting the final pieces in for a new weapon. "This weapon might be powerful enough to help them out."
...
The Fight
Motabrin kept fighting Sierra and Travis and he appeared to be winning as he slashed against them and knocked them down.
"We need to combine our weapons." Sierra said.
"We can't. We need the others, but it looks like Dragight's keeping them busy. What do we do?" Travis said as this wasn't looking good.
"Rangers, come in." Zultro said. "I have something that might help you. It's called the Neo Cannon. It might hold the power needed to finish this and it doesn't require all of you. However, the more rangers there is giving it power, the more power it gets."
"Sounds like that could help us out." Travis said. "Let's see what it can do. Neo Cannon!" Travis called on for the new weapon and it appeared. A cannon that was hoisted right over his shoulder. "Boy, this thing does has some power coming from it. It's already charging from me just holding it."
"Let's use it together. He says more rangers give it more power." Sierra said as she grabbed on.
"That doesn't look good." Motabrin said.
"It doesn't for you." Travis said as it was charging. "Fire!" Sierra and Travis worked together and pushed the lever that fired with a pink and red blast fired from it. The blast swirled around and blasted Motabrin with it. It was too much for Motabrin to handle and he ended up being destroyed.
"Motabrin!" Dragight called as he saw him destroyed. "You'll pay for this, rangers! Big time!" He claimed as he made a retreat.
"Big time is right." Locore said as he was aware of the battle. "Grow!" He launched his power down to the planet and Motabrin came back as a giant.
"We need spirit animal power now!" Travis called. Each one of them called their zords and combined them together to form their megazord.
"Even that won't save you from me!" Motabrin said as he went on the attack. He charged right at them with his two blades ready. He tried to attack them, but they flew right in the air. The megazord came right down and gave him a powerful kick. "Hey! No fair that you can fly!"
"He's right. It's not fair." Sierra said.
"So let's end it quickly. Powering up." Travis said. They flew into the air and build power in their fists.
"Uh oh!" Motabrin said as he knew this wasn't good for him. They flew right down and smashed both fists against him. Motabrin got hit with all that power and he ended up blowing up because of it. Another win for the strong rangers, no potion needed.
...
The Youth Center
"Boom goes another monster." Travis said as he and Sierra entered the Youth Center.
"And that cannon is incredible. It's got some real power to it." Sierra said.
"Only because we worked together." Travis said. "We make a great team."
"Yeah." Sierra said and she was thinking they make a great team in more than one way. "Travis... About earlier... I wanted to ask..." Sierra was going to go for it. Sierra was going to ask Travis out, but Joey came in and ruined the moment.
"Dudes!" Joey called with the others stepping in. "That last fight had me think that maybe we should hit the gym ourselves."
"It's not a bad idea." Valerie said.
"We got to stay in shape for next time." Abby said.
"What do you say? You guys in?" Joey asked.
"I think I've had enough working out for one day." Travis said.
"I think Travis is afraid because he knows he can't be stronger than us." Robby taunted. That seemed to have pulled the trigger.
"It's on. We'll start with running." Travis said as he chased after them. Sierra laughed as she went with them. Hopefully she'll get another chance with him.
