Power rangers Thunder force #26 Zanek's legacy chapter 2: Prelude to destruction.

Power rangers are the property of Saban.

Previously on Power rangers...

"And now for your payment."

Turlok yells and a huge blast of energy shoots from his hands. The blast incinerates the alien, leaving no trace.

"Soon the earth and vengeance will be mine!"

Turlok yells and a power aura surrounds him and gets bigger all the time. Suddenly the whole station crumbles around him and he finds himself floating in space.

-- --

Turlok floats in space preparing.

"It's time to go back to earth and tear it apart."

Turlok flies through space at a fast speed.

"I think I will give them a warm up."

Turlok yells and fires a huge blast that shoots straight at earth and hits angel grove. A reporter on TV is reporting the result.

"The biggest earthquake California has ever experienced. It was very brief but caused massive damage. Particularly to angel grove where the epicenter seemed to be."

Zanek appears floating in the air with Auros.

"Earthquake nothing. I can sense a pure evil power behind this."

"Yes. Turlok has gotten his hands on something that is too much for him to control. It will consume him."

"Damn it. The rangers are going to need me."

"You will return but there is something you need to face first."

They both disappear.

""And now for episode 26.""

"Force ranger, black!" Cassie yells.

"Force ranger, blue!" Karone yells.

"Force ranger, green1" Carlos yells.

"Force ranger yellow!" Ashley yells.

They are being attacked by a group of drones. The sheer number is making it hard. Meanwhile a strange figure in armor is watching the whole thing.

"That should keep them occupied until our leader returns to finish them off."

He takes out a gun and fires on the drones. Suddenly they become one big drone.

"Oh crap!"

The rangers take out their blasters and fire on the drone but it doesn't seem to even faze it.

"Power up level 2!"

The rangers all transform to their spandex suit forms. They attack the drone with their swords but the swords just bounce off of the drone's hide.

"It's no use. It's too powerful."

Suddenly a huge blast of energy incinerates the drone.

"What the hell?"

Turlok lands in front of the rangers.

"Who are you?"

"I am Turlok and I am here to finally take this planet."

Karone and the others raise their swords up high.

"Not if we have anything to say about it."

Turlok yells and powers up his suit. Right before the rangers eyes he becomes bigger and more muscular.

"Hah hah hah, I'm invincible now!"

Turlok fires an energy blast at the rangers, which knocks them to the ground hard.

"We need the white ranger!"

"But we don't have the red armor. It won't be as powerful without it." Cassie lies panting on the ground.

"We don't have a choice."

They stand up and put their swords together.

"Force ranger, white!"

The 4 beams of colored light form into one and the white ranger steps from the glare.

"Oh a new toy for me to destroy."

The white ranger brings up two swords, which seem to spread out into 8 swords as they move up and down.

"Time to show what happens to people that mess with the power rangers."

"White prism blast!"

A beam of energy shoots from the swords and separates into 4 colors before hitting Turlok. But to the rangers horror he reflects the beam right back at them.

"Ewe that tickled."

When the blast hits the white ranger it blows up and separates into the 4 different rangers. The rangers are on the ground coughing and wheezing.

"I knew it wouldn't be enough without Zanek."

"We had to try."

"Now it's time to show you what happens to people that mess with me."

Turlok yells and forms a huge ball of fire in front of him.

"Shit if that hits us then we're finished!"

"Let's teleport out of here while we can!"

The rangers all disappear into colored light columns just before the fireball can hit them.

"Cowards! Come back and fight me!"

The rangers reappear in the medical bay and demorph.

"He's too powerful. What are we going to do now?" Ashley sits down winded.

The TV comes to life with Turlok's face on it.

"Attention power rangers. This is an ultimatum. You will show up in one hour and give yourselves up or I will destroy downtown angel grove."

Turlok turns away from the camera and points to a building.

"And to show you I'm serious."

Turlok easily blows the building up with an energy ball.

"One hour!"

"The only thing I can think of is to use the megazord in ultra mode."

"But it's too badly damaged right now."

"We have no choice at this moment. Turlok cannot be allowed to continue his terror." Carlos shakes his head.

Cassie sighs.

"Okay lets do it."

They put their hands together.

"We can do it if we fight together as one!" They all yell.

Soon after they approach downtown and morph.

"We need the megazord!"

The 5 zords appear and the 4 rangers jump into them.

"Who will control the red zord?"

A familiar gray figure appears and jumps into the empty.

"I will." Grey says.

The zords come together to form the megazord.

"Ultra mode!"

The zord reconfigures to form an even bigger fighter and a massive sword appears in its hands.

"Power levels are at 70%."

Carlos shakes his head.

"It will have to do."

The Ultrazord finally finds Turlok.

"Aw so you decided to come all dressed up pretty like."

Turlok powers up even more and becomes huge.

"Two can play at that game!"

"The power levels i am getting off of that suit are off the scale. Way more than we have!" Cassie yells.

The Ultrazord rushes forward and brings the sword down on Turlok but he easily grabs the sword.

"Didn't your mamma ever tell you not to play with sharp objects?"

To the rangers horror Turlok breaks the sword as if it was made of cardboard.

"Shit!"

Turlok shoves the Ultrazord backwards and prepares a huge blast.

"Catch!"

Turlok throws the ball like a baseball and it hits the Ultrazord head on.

"Ewe. I bet you guys sucked at baseball."

"Power levels are down to 30%!"

The chest collectors start drawing energy from the air until it's fully powered up.

"Fire main weapon!"

A blast of light comes shooting from the chest and flies at Turlok. But to the rangers horror the blast is absorbed into his chest.

"Ah that felt good."

Turlok powers up even more.

"Here try it!"

Turlok fires it back. The hit blows a huge piece off of the Ultrazord. The sword hand falls off and hits the ground.

"That's it. We're falling apart!"

The rangers all abandon the zord and watch is it falls to pieces and explodes. Turlok steps over the rangers as if to step on them but instead he reaches his massive hand down and grab them.

"It's time to take my trophy. This world is mine!"

Turlok looks up into space and flies upwards. He then shrinks down to size and enters the ship. The rangers are forcefully taken to the cells after their swords are taken away. But Turlok stops them from taking Carlos.

"Oh no. I have a special use for him."

Turlok leads the guards into a room where Carlos is forcefully thrown in.

"I want you to meet a new warrior of mine."

A strange figure appears in the darkness.

"Actually you may know him already."

The figure steps into the light. It's T.J.

To be continued...
The rangers are captive and powerless. Can they escape this one? But first a look at Zanek's past and future.
