Disclaimer: Saban big money maker, me flat broke. Difference? He own power rangers, I don't. My rangers and Zelda make me N.B.C. Nothing but crap.
A/N: OK, there will be some significant differences in this from the 5-parter Green with Evil. For instance, there will be no Goldar/Red ranger battle, no eclipse, and no enlarged fight between Megazord/green ranger/Goldar/Scorpina. Anyway on with Chapter 5.
Chapter 5-Green with Envy Part II
THE YOUTH CENTER
Kyle sat at the Juice Bar, sipping on a milkshake. He was hoping Samantha would walk in, so he could ask her out. Hours passed, and nothing happened. Suddenly, Ross and Joan came rushing in. The other rangers met at a table.
"We've got trouble!" Joan said, clearly out of breath.
The rangers backed into a small hall, where they usually teleported.
"10 minutes ago, Zelda contacted me, the message has been repeating," Ross said as he pressed a button on his communicator.
"Power rangers…I…need…help," Zelda said through the communicator.
"Have we tried responding?" Kyle inquired.
"Yeah, but I get this," Joan said as she pressed her communicator. The small gadget made a monotone beep, like when there is a busy line on a phone.
"What about teleportation?" Cindy asked.
"The same," Ross replied.
Kyle sighed, something was definitely up, and he didn't like it.
"Let's take the RADBUG, it's fully charged," Kyle said.
The rangers walked out of the Youth Center, and 6 blocks to Ross' house where the RADBUG was in the garage.
"Can you drive this?" Kyle asked Ross as he got in.
"Doesn't exactly take a degree in nuclear engineering," Ross commented back to him as the RADBUG geared up.
After a few blocks, the RADBUG rose up and sailed through the clouds.
"Should be there soon," Ross said.
Cindy turned from her window view over to Kyle, who looked depressed.
"What's wrong Kyle?" Cindy asked with concern.
"Samantha wasn't at school, and she didn't come to the Youth Center," Kyle said.
"Maybe she was sick," Joan said, turning her head to face Kyle.
"Maybe," Kyle said sadly.
"We're here," Ross, said as he took the RADBUG down for landing.
THE COMMAND CENTER
The RADBUG landed and the teens stepped out, gasping at the destruction they saw.
"Look at this place!" Cindy said.
"Someone ripped out the control panels," Joan remarked.
"Oh my God, Zelda!" Greg said, cradling her in his arms.
Kyle, Joan and Cindy walked over as Ross surveyed the extent of the damage.
"Is she-," Kyle began.
Joan inspected her, checking for any lacerations.
"She is fine, but she has a few cuts, and significant burns," Joan said.
"That's not all we have to worry about, look," Ross said as the rangers turned, seeing Zordon's energy tube dimly lit.
Zelda moaned faintly, and awoke, as Greg helped her to her feet.
"Power rangers, I am so glad you are here. I was barely able to contact you," Zelda said.
"What happened?" Kyle asked.
"My memory is very vague. All I remember is someone zapping me with energy, and cackling as they ripped out the control panels," Zelda said, rubbing her head.
Zelda looked around, and nearly fainted back into Ross' arms when she saw Zordon's energy tube.
RITA'S PALACE
Rita was celebrating in disabling her arch nemesis, Zordon, when the wind began blowing inside the palace. A time portal opened, and Divatox stepped out.
"Hail Divatox, Queen of Evil," Goldar, Scorpina, Finster, Squatt and Baboo said, kneeling, as Rita did the same.
Divatox allowed them to stand, and turned to Rita.
"I'm impressed, only a month and you've managed to disable Zordon," Divatox said.
"It was nothing, just the help of my new ally," Rita said, motioning to the balcony, where a human girl was standing.
The girl turned, bowing before Divatox, and then standing.
"Divatox, allow me to introduce you to Samantha Collins, my green ranger," Rita said as Divatox inspected her.
"When is she to destroy the power rangers?" Divatox asked.
"Now," Rita said, turning to Scorpina and saying, "Scorpina, when I say, you will accompany the green ranger to Earth,"
Scorpina nodded saying, "My will is yours, Empress,"
Samantha turned to the balcony, raising her morpher and saying, "It's Morphin' Time!"
"Dragonzord!" she yelled, transforming into the green ranger.
A/N: Ooh! Part III will tell of the rangers' battle with Scorpina and the green ranger. Please review; I hope you enjoyed this chapter. Chapter 6 will be up by the end of the week, I hope.
