Ruined City:

We return to the ruined city where all 10 rangers are still standing around talking.

Ian: it's been five years since we defeated Omegor. For the most part it's been peaceful.

Ny: until three months ago at least.

Nathan: one day this new villain appeared out of nowhere with his own army. He launched a full scale invasion of Earth.

Ian: we tried fighting back, of course, but without our powers we didn't stand a chance.

Greg: who is it?

John: he calls himself Diablo.

Laura: Diablo? As in Devil?

Sarah: yes. He took out all the world's leaders and put his generals in their place.

Greg: so he basically managed to do, in three months, what Omegor couldn't do? He won?

Michaela: not quite. We're still fighting back we've formed a resistance.

Two of the rangers take Greg and Laura's arms and they all teleport. When they reappear it is outside what appears to be a complex.

Greg: where are we?

Ian: our camp. We set up at what used to be Bristol Community College.

They approach what appears to be the front gate. They are stopped by the guard.

?: (pointing blaster) who are they?

Ian: really Mike you don't recognize Greg and Laura?

Mike: (looking closer) oh my god it is you welcome back guys.

Greg/Laura: hey mike

Back to the Present:

96

The scene shifts back to present day. We see seven of the rangers standing in the power chamber. At the moment Ian and Kelsey are missing.

Brandon: so what's this meeting about Kate?

Kate: no idea they didn't say anything about it to me.

All of a sudden Ian and Kelsey arrive and approach the others.

Ian: thanks for coming on such short notice guys.

Kate: what's up?

Ian: I'm afraid I have some bad news.

Greg: what's wrong?

Ian: I've been offered another job. And I'm afraid I might not be able to balance it with my ranger responsibilities.

Brandon: so you're resigning?

Ian: for now.

Ian then removes his morpher and hands it to Brandon.

Ian: here Brandon I'm sure you'll be able to find someone else to take up the fight with you.

Kate: thank you for everything Ian. Remember you're always welcome. Once a ranger always a ranger.

Kate then hands Ian what looks like what we saw in the vault.

Ian: what's this?

Kate: it's a communicator. It'll allow you to communicate with us and teleport.

Ian: (taking communicator) thanks. Remember if you ever need me I'll be there.

Greg: good luck Ian.

Ian: thanks

Ian then teleports out of the Power Chamber.

Kelsey: wow well that's a surprise.

Kate: I know

Kelsey: this next parts even harder now

The others look at Kelsey. Kelsey then takes off her own morpher and hands it to Brandon as well.

Kate: what are you…?

Kelsey: I'm sorry guys but I'm having the same trouble as well. I have too much going on in my life right now. And as a result I'm having trouble balancing everything.

Kate: don't worry about it Kelsey. You're always welcome back as well. Like I told Ian once a ranger always a ranger.

Kate then hands Kelsey a communicator as well.

Kelsey: (taking it) thanks Kate. Good luck guys

Kelsey then teleports away as well. The rangers then look at each other.

Greg: well what do we do now?

Kate: we need to fill those spots asap.

Ny: but who?

Brandon: I'll take care of it. I already know who should join us. And luckily I'm going to see them both tomorrow. I'll talk to them then.

Kate: who are they?

Brandon: you'll see tomorrow. I don't want to spoil the surprise for you.

Kate: ok just make sure you choose logically not based on who you like.

Brandon: I know don't worry I think both of them will be really good additions to our team.

The rangers then all teleport out of the power chamber.
