Power Rangers Cyber #5 freedom part 1
The rangers are on their way to attack the main Phalanx base of the planet.
"Come on. The main base entrance is right over here." Matt says.
"Let's be careful. Don't know what kind of opposition will be waiting for us."
Janus says.
They are met by a group of quarks and a fight ensues. It ends shortly with the
rangers' blasters. A flash of pain overcomes Matt.
"Matt? Are you okay?" Jake asks.
Matt suddenly pulls a blaster on Jake and fires on him. At point range Jake is
disintegrated.
"NO!" Cynthia screams.
"Why?" Joshua says pulling his own blaster.
But Matt is faster on the firing and shoots Jake and he too disappears. Matt
steps forward towards Cynthia and Janus and prepares to blast them too. But
before he can a blast from behind him hits him and disintegrates him. Suddenly
Matt wakes up with a start in his own bed. He was having a nightmare.
And now for episode five
The rangers all collect around the main command center eating their breakfasts
and talking about what to do next.
"I hope they can help fix our ship." Janus says.
"Hey just look at the technology around us, not to mention our powers. Somehow
I think that repairing our ship would be a snap." Jake says.
"Well I hope he will talk to us about it now that the celebration is over with."
Joshua says.
A bell rings and a voice comes over the COM.
"Would the five chosen ones please come to the communication room." The voice
says.
The five look at each other and walk out of the room. They end up in the COM
room. When they enter an unknown Phalanx suddenly bows in front of them.
"That is unnecessary Linx. Welcome chosen ones. It is now time to discuss how
we can help each other." The general says.
"I'm sorry great ones. But I have always wanted to meet our saviors." Linx
says.
"We left behind one of our crewmembers that is in a comatose state. He needs
help first of all. Could you send someone to our ship to bring him here? Right
now he is in a stasis chamber." Janus says.
"It will be done." The general says.
He turns to Linx and says some words in a foreign language. Linx nods
enthusiastically and leaves the room.
"We didn't tell you where it is." Jake says.
"We know where it is. We have tracked it since you entered our region." The
general says.
"But you must have a lot of ships coming through here." Jake says.
"But not the way you came. The legend spoke of a ship that appears out of
nowhere." The general says.
"That supports what I thought about hyper jumping. That we would just disappear
and reappear." Joshua says.
"Now we can talk about our deal. This planet has been under the rule and the
influence of the Dark Core. We have not been able to fight them off. As the
chosen ones you are destined to get rid of the Dark Core. If you can help us
stop it in this one small step then we will help you with your ship." The
general says.
"Whoa whoa. Hold it! You expect us to help free a planet from an entire ruling
center?" Matt says.
"It is not as hard as it sounds. The ruling council is not big. Cause this is
not one of the biggest planets that have Phalanx on it." The general says.
"We'll try our best." Jake says.
"Thank you. At the exit the guard will give you a diagram of the base you
should take out first." The general says.
The rangers nod and leave the room. On the way out they talk amongst
themselves.
"We must be crazy. We almost got destroyed by the Dark Core's show of power."
Jake says.
"I think that beings that powerful are rare and not expendable. The Dark Core
just knew we couldn't defeat it at this point. I don't think he would risk it
again for now." Matt says.
"If all we face is those grunts and a monster then we shouldn't have too much
trouble." Joshua says.
"Just as long as we don't get cocky." Janus says.
"Let's do it. I mean what do we have to lose. If we don't do this then we may
never get off this planet." Cynthia says.
They reach the main entrance and receive a data-padd from the guard. They look
over the data and notice all the important information.
"I don't think we should hit it at the front entrance. Let me see if there is
any side entrances." Matt says.
He touches the screen a few times and discovers a side entrance on the West
Side.
"Let's check out that entrance." Matt says.
They all leave the building and start heading north towards the base. When they
can see it in the distance they stop. Matt takes out some binoculars and looks
at the front.
"I see at least a dozen armed grunts. Some patrolling and some just standing
and watching. I think we should approach from the west to prevent from being
seen by the guards on the north side." Matt says.
The rangers all agree and start heading in a northwest while staying as far as
they can from the north side. After about ten minutes they are close enough to
the west side for Matt to look at it through his binoculars.
"There are some guards on this side but not as much. Probably figure that a lot
of attackers wouldn't know about the west entrance." Matt says.
"I'd suggest using stealth. Else the guards alert the others." Janus says.
"Agreed. Let's go. Remember that we need to conserve our cyber suits power.
Only morph if we have to." Matt says.
The rangers head for the northwestern corner of the building where there are no
guards and begin to sneak around the ground level corner. Matt is in the lead
with his binoculars. As they reach a blockage he slowly angles around with his
binoculars to look for opposition then signals clear if there isn't any.
"I hope this entrance is on the ground level." Jake whispers.
After awhile they find an entrance with one guard standing by it. Matt holds
his hand up to say to hold back.
"I don't know if we are gonna be able to open the door ourselves. Let's wait
and see if anybody comes out and then we can take him or her both out. If there
isn't a guard then anybody coming out will be warned ahead of time." Matt says.
The rest agree and wait. After about ten minutes another grunt comes from the
north. He stops to chat with the other one in the same unfamiliar language.
Then the grunt steps up to the door to enter a code. Matt quickly takes his
binoculars and looks at the keypad to see the code being entered. He then pulls
back again until he hears the door close.
"Got it." Matt says.
Matt quietly jumps the grunt and kills it.
"Let's hurry before another guard comes." Matt says.
Matt quickly inputs the code by memory. Suddenly an alarm goes off.
"Darn it. Must be some kind of fingerprint device as well." Matt says.
Before the rangers can do anything Matt is overpowered by a bunch of guards and
taken into the base.
Jake starts to go after them but Janus holds him back.
"We're no good to him if we get captured too. Let's retreat and think of
another plan." Janus says.
The remaining rangers reluctantly retreat back to a safe area far from the base.
Meanwhile back in the base Matt is brought roughly into a room with a single
chair in it's center. He is thrown into the chair and the chair restrains him.
Matt, in a rage, tries to break free but with no luck.
"Such energy wasted in trying to escape." A voice says.
"Who are you?" Matt yells.
"That's funny. I was wondering the same thing and why you tried breaking into
our base." The voice says.
"I was just looking for some help." Matt says.
"Do you think I was programmed yesterday? No, I have a feeling that you came
here for a different reason. A reason not in our interest." The voice says.
"Believe what you want." Matt says.
"Another thing. Where are the others that came with you?" The voice asks.
"What?" Matt says shocked.
"Oh come on. You would have to be pretty stupid to try to attack us by yourself
and you don't seem stupid." The voice says.
"I told you that I wasn't here to attack you." Matt says.
"So you still hold onto a lie. We'll see what song you sing after we condition
you." The voice says.
Matt doesn't know what that means but he knows it doesn't sound good. Back at
the other rangers' location they are still thinking.
"We can't leave him there. But how are we gonna get in there?" Jake asks.
"The Phalanx says that we can change into anything we want. What if we take on
the disguise of grunts and get in that way?" Janus asks.
"It sounds risky but I can't think of any other way." Joshua responds.
"If we are gonna get past the fingerprinting code device then we are gonna need
to take on the fingerprints of a grunt." Janus says.
"How bout if we take out another grunt without completely destroying it. Then
we can take its fingerprints. The only other problem is that Matt was the only
one that saw what the code was." Jake says.
"I was behind Matt. I believe I remember what it was." Janus says.
"Well what are we waiting for? Let's do it." Jake says.
"Cyber suits engage!" the rangers all yell.
"Cyber ranger Beta!" Jake yells.
"Cyber ranger Delta!" Cynthia yells.
"Cyber ranger Gamma!" Joshua yells.
"Cyber ranger Omega!" Janus yells.
Shortly after they all morph they concentrate and take on the form of four
grunts. The four approach the western entrance again. Not surprisingly there
are two new guards waiting in front.
"I just thought of something. We don't know their language." Jake whispers.
"Just try grunting. That sometimes works. Specially with low level soldiers."
Janus whispers.
They approach the two guards and nod at them. When the guards guard is down
they knock them out.
"Okay I am assimilating their fingerprint into my suit." Janus says while
holding the knocked out guard's hand.
After she is done she touches the other rangers' hands and the same process is
repeated with them all.
"Okay. Cross your fingers that this is the right code." Janus says.
Janus enters the codes while the other rangers brace themselves. But no alarm
sounds this time and the rangers relax. The door opens and the rangers are
startled by the sight of another guard on the other side. The rangers grunt as
they pass and that seems to fool the guard. The rangers are almost out of the
room when the guard says some loud word to them. They turn around ready to
fight but the guard is holding out four weapons to them.
"I think he is giving us weapons cause we are missing ours. Probably for grunts
that lose theirs in battle outside." Janus whispers.
Each ranger steps forward and takes the weapons. They pass through the door at
the end without any more talking from the guard. Once they are on the other
side they all let their breath out.
"Whew. I thought we were in trouble there at first." Jake says.
Janus puts her finger to her lips and shushes Jake and she points out a group of
guards on patrol. Jake nods and stands still until the guards pass. The guards
either don't notice them or don't think anything of them.
"Now I wonder where Matt would be in?" Jake whispers.
"Probably some kind of detention center. Unless they killed him right away."
Janus says.
"Let's not talk like that." Cynthia says.
"Yeah she's right. Unless we find out otherwise, we should assume that he's
alive and needs rescuing." Jake says.
Meanwhile back in the room where Matt is he is slumped on his chair. A small
jolt from the chair brings him out of it.
"Had a nice rest?" The voice asks.
"It sucked. Thanx for asking." Matt says sarcastically.
"Good cause now maybe you are ready to talk." The voice says.
Matt spits at the direction of the voice and says, "Bite me."
A huge jolt goes through the chair and Matt screams in pain.
"This isn't working." The voice says.
A grunt comes in and takes Matt out of his chair.
"Take him to the reconditioning room. I think he would do better on our side."
The voice says in the Phalanx's native language.
The grunt nods then takes Matt out of the room. Back outside the rangers have
found a map. But they can't read the language to find the detention part.
"Darn it. How are we gonna find him?" Jake says.
Suddenly a voice in an alien language sounds behind the rangers. The rangers
grunt in response again but this time it doesn't satisfy the guard. In fact the
guard raises it's weapon at them and about 2 dozen more guards appear with their
weapons.
To be continued...
The rangers are on their way to attack the main Phalanx base of the planet.
"Come on. The main base entrance is right over here." Matt says.
"Let's be careful. Don't know what kind of opposition will be waiting for us."
Janus says.
They are met by a group of quarks and a fight ensues. It ends shortly with the
rangers' blasters. A flash of pain overcomes Matt.
"Matt? Are you okay?" Jake asks.
Matt suddenly pulls a blaster on Jake and fires on him. At point range Jake is
disintegrated.
"NO!" Cynthia screams.
"Why?" Joshua says pulling his own blaster.
But Matt is faster on the firing and shoots Jake and he too disappears. Matt
steps forward towards Cynthia and Janus and prepares to blast them too. But
before he can a blast from behind him hits him and disintegrates him. Suddenly
Matt wakes up with a start in his own bed. He was having a nightmare.
