Power Rangers Thunder Force #4 double helix chapter 4: the birth
Previously on Power Rangers…
"No my child is gone." Astayanax screams.
"What now?" Thunder asks.
"There is one more child left. That one unfortunately was born too early. But I sense that the remaining
one will not be born until it is fully developed." Astayanax responds.
"Only two more years." Thunder says.
"It's almost time. My child will be born in a matter of months." Astayanax.
"Is it time for us to return to earth?" Thunder asks.
"Not yet. When the birth gets closer than I will tell you to come." Astayanax says.
Thunder disappears from the space scape.
"That puny planet is about to learn the real meaning of terror. Soon I will be free." Astayanax says.
And now for episode 4…
Around the planet earth, space is peaceful. Nothing shows that a major space battle had happened just a
few hours ago. On earth a major celebration is happening in honor of the heroes that saved the planet and
the galaxy. Karone and Andros spend time together catching up with each other. After hours of
celebration the rangers return to the megaship for an important message.
"If you are seeing this message, than I am dead." A hologram of Zordon says.
Ashley cries and Andros just stares.
"I have left some instructions for you if evil is ever wiped out from the galaxy."
The rangers walk to a previously unseen part of the megaship. Previously unseen that is to everybody but
Andros and Zhane.
"As Andros and Zhane know, in the back of the megaship is a special chamber called the power vault."
They walk up to a door and Andros places his palm on a reader. The reader accepts him and a door opens
up.
"In the vault is a place for your space morphers. Place them there where they will be protected until if they
are needed again someday."
They each take off their morphers and place them in the six slots. Then they all exit the room and return to
the bridge.
"God speed my rangers. I know you can do without me now. May the power protect you." Zordon says
finishing his message and then disappearing.
Andros reaches out and touches where the image was.
"Goodbye my friend." Andros says.
"Let's go. We have a lot of work to do if we want to help rebuild all that was destroyed on earth." Carlos
says.
The others nod and exit the ship. Andros takes one last look at where the message appeared. He
remembers how he was the one that destroyed Zordon to save the galaxy.
Time: Three months later.
Andros, Karone and Zhane are standing on the ramp.
"Do you have to go?" T.J. asks.
"Yeah. We have done our part on earth. We need to get back to KO-35 and help rebuild there also."
Andros responds.
"Good luck. If you ever need help…" Carlos says.
Ashley walks up to Andros and the two look at each other uneasily.
"I'll miss you." Ashley says.
"I will be back. I promise." Andros says.
They hug then kiss. The three enter the megaship and it lifts off. Andros looks out the window for one last
glimpse of Ashley. He touches the window. The megaship goes into hyper-speed. Suddenly another ship
appears. The explorer ship.
"It's time. I want you to send down these special spores. They are foot soldiers and will distract the
rangers until the birth happens." Astayanax says.
"Yes." Thunder says.
Thunder returns to the bridge.
"Transport the spores to the surface of the earth immediately." Thunder says.
The transporter officer does his job and the spores appear on the earth. They quickly change into energy
beings that crackle with energy all over their bodies. They appear to have very hard bodies also. They
quickly begin attacking anything they see. Meanwhile Bulk and Skull are at the local hospital looking for a
job.
"Why are we here again Bulk?" Skull asks.
"I told you a thousand times. So we can work in the cafeteria and get free food." Bulk says.
"Can I help you?" An attendant says eyeing them suspiciously.
"Yeah. We are here to apply for the cafeteria worker job." Bulk says.
"Yeah what he said." Skull says chewing on gum.
"Um okay. Have you any experience working in a hospital?" The woman says even more suspicious.
"Uh well I used to put a couple of people in the hospital." Bulk responds.
Meanwhile a longhaired crazy looking guy is watching them.
"O.K. I'm sorry but you don't seem to be suited." The woman says.
"What? But I eat all the time. I am perfect for a food service job." Bulk says.
"Do you even have a food service card?" The woman asks.
"Uh will you take one that expired 2 years ago?" Bulk asks.
"Of course not." The woman responds irritated.
"Well I have tried to get it again but I never succeed. Should I be punished for failure?" Bulk asks.
"Look. If you don't get out of here right now I will call security." The woman says at the end of her line.
"Excuse me. I know these boys. They are okay." The weird guy says.
"Oh Dr. Frankenstein. Okay if you know them then I will let them stay. But they are very underqualified
for the jobs they are asking for." The woman says surprised.
"That's okay. I have decided to hire them myself." Frankenstein says.
"Really? I mean that's good." Bulk says.
"But but. What could you possibly use these two for?" The woman asks.
"You know that some of the stuff I do is secret. I will find a use for them." Frankenstein replies.
"Okay but I have a feeling that you will be sorry." The woman says.
They all exit the main lobby. Frankenstein leads them into a lab.
"Make yourselves at home." Frankenstein says.
"Wow this place is amazing. Look at all this….stuff." Skull says.
"Watch it. I don't want you breaking anything." Frankenstein says in a suddenly stern voice.
"Hey chill man." Bulk says holding his hands up.
"I'm sorry. I guess I get into it a little too much." Frankenstein says calmly.
"So doc. What are you doing in this lab?" Skull asks.
"I'd appreciate if you would call me Dr. Frankenstein, not doc." Frankenstein says.
"Sorry." Skull says.
"Can you keep a secret?" Frankenstein asks in a suddenly boyish voice.
"Uh yeah sure." Bulk responds.
"Normal vaccines are worthless. The virus or bacteria that it stops changes so much. I am creating the
ultimate vaccine. One that can prevent all disease." Frankenstein says.
"That sounds great. How long have you been working on it and how far have you gotten?" Bulk asks.
"I have been working on it for years but I have not gotten anywhere." Frankenstein says.
"This guy is nuts. Let's get out of here while he still lets us." Bulk whispers to Bulk.
They slowly back away.
"Yeah that sounds great. But I just remembered that I have another interview." Bulk says.
Suddenly the doctor hits a button behind him and the door locks.
"I'm afraid that you aren't going anywhere." Frankenstein says in a menacing voice.
Bulk and Skull scream. Meanwhile the ex rangers are watching the news.
"A group of mysterious beings are attacking angel grove. We are suggesting all citizens to stay in their
houses." The announcer says.
"Oh man. I thought the z-wave destroyed all evil." Carlos whines.
"Well. We may not have the power anymore but we still can protect angel grove as much as we can."
Cassie says.
They rush out of the mall and find where the beings are attacking.
"Okay. That's enough attacking of innocent people. The power rangers er I mean we are here to stop
you." Carlos yells.
The virii respond by racing at the five. The five get into a fighting stance and prepare to attack.
"Hyahh." Carlos yells.
He does a jump kick at one of the virii but his foot is broken on the extremely hard surface.
"Ah my foot." Carlos screams in pain then collapses.
Ashley punches one of them and nearly breaks his hand.
"Let's get out of here while we still have bones to break." Cassie yells.
They all teleport away from the battle. The others help Carlos and Ashley into the hospital and admit them
there.
"Look. I will give you anything you want. Just let us out of here." Bulk says to Frankenstein back in the
lab.
"What I want is a couple of helpers. You will be those helpers." Frankenstein says.
Suddenly Bulk doubles over in pain and starts glowing with energy.
"What's happening to me?" Bulk screams.
"Wow let me get my scanner." Frankenstein says.
Bulk continues to change and shift. He finally becomes a being of pure energy. When Frankenstein tries to
get close with his scanner, he is knocked back by a tremendous force.
"Uh Bulk? What happened to you?" Skull asks scared.
The Bulk monster reaches out towards Skull. Skull screams and faints. The Bulk monster fires a beam of
energy at the entrance to the lab and walks out. He leaves the hospital, blasting anyone that gets in his way.
"Yes my child. Destroy everything and give me energy so I can be free at last." Astayanax says.
Meanwhile the four ex rangers are in the hospital. The two wounded are in beds with bandages on their
broken parts. The news comes on the TV.
"Another unknown monster is attacking angel grove. The monster appears to be made of pure energy.
Nothing that the police throw at it seems to affect it." The reporter says.
The ex rangers all look at each other with fear.
