Chapter 4 : When Pink and Yellow Powers Unite

Back on Earth

Onslaught's ship had finally arrived on the planet called Earth. He had never been on this particular planet before, but his sources told him that it was thriving with life and populated with potential bounties. His usual entrance to a planet would usually consist of a ton of fireworks, coming from the two large guns located on his ship, but he decided to skip the grand entrance this time because he believed that this planet didn't pose much of a threat.

His first target was a small community called Angel Grove. The population was little but there was an enormous amount of energy coming from its people. This place would be the perfect target, but little did he know that this place was protected by an ancient power that he had nearly forgotten about.



Trini and Kimberly sat inside the place that once stood as Ernie's Cafe. They had been best friends since they were little and decided to spend their vacation together. But the two realized Ernie was no longer working here. Those days had passed and now everything was different. They missed those good old days, but they knew that it was not good to dwell on things of the past.

"Remember that spot over there?" Trini pointed out. Her finger pointed towards a clear area by the counter. "Look over there."

Kimberly quickly glanced towards the area in which Trini was pointing. She shook her head briefly. "Yea... That's where Bulk asked me out once." She giggled softly at the painfully annoying memory.

"You actually remember that?" Trini was shocked Kimberly would actually remember someone like Bulk. Especially since he was so idiotic and vile. But she wasn't talking about that. Her thoughts dwelled on something else. "No. Don't you remember? That's where we were first transported to the command center and received our powers."

"Hmm... Of course I remember,Trini," She stared down her cup for while and seemed a bit distant.

Suddenly an explosion could be heard outside and interrupted Kimberly's thoughts of the past. Instinctively, the two got up from their seats and ran outside to see the current happenings.

Outside the sky was darkened and a black spaceship hung over the area blocking the sunlight. There was a man directly below the ship dressed in a black coat and a helmet. In his hands he held a gun and used it to shoot any nearby civilians. "You people are worthless," he yelled as he shot one victim after another.

Kimberly and Trini ran after him with the intention of stopping whatever it was he was planning. "Stop right there!" Trini proclaimed.

Trini's slight form didn't intimidate the man but it certainly seemed funny to him that such a puny little girl would dare challenge him.

"What gives you the right to hurt innocent people?" Kim added. After years of experience a man like this didn't even come close to scaring her. There was no reply from the man. Instead the man raised his gun towards them and prepared to fire.

"I never thought we'd ever have to do this again," Kim said. "Now's a good time to do it. You ready Trini?"

Trini nodded and two morphers materialized from their backs. Like old times the two stretched out their arms, preparing to morph. "It's morphin time!" They said together.

"Pterodactyl!" Kim yelled. She was then surrounded by a blinding pink light and when all was done the pink power ranger stood before the enemy.

"Saber toothed tiger!" Trini followed. She was then enveloped in white energy. In a matter of moments the yellow power ranger stood beside the pink ranger.

"Rangers? Here?" the man screamed angrily. His hand reached for another gun located on his boots. As he shot at the two rangers, red beams of light shot from the tip of the gun.

Through a series of jumps and flips the rangers were able to avoid the enemy fire. The rangers then removed their own guns from where they were located and began to fire. The man too was athletic and agile and he dodged each of their shots with ease.

Suddenly another shot fired through the air."Look over here!" came two other voices from out of nowhere. "We're the space rangers!" they introduced themselves. Just then the man turned to see who it was. Two other rangers, one yellow the other pink, stood in the distance ready to aid their fellow rangers. This left the man distracted and left him open for an attack.

"Power Bow!" Kimberly yelled out as she jumped in the air and fired an arrow from her bow. It sped quickly through the air and finally landed on the man's left leg. The man screamed out in pain as it penetrated through flesh and bone.

"Power Daggers!" came Trini's voice as she too jumped in the air and took a slice at the man's left hand. The daggers cut through the man's hand like a scissors cuts through a thin sheet of paper and it landed lifelessly on the ground. The man made no sound, but instead kneeled down on the floor holding his handless arm in pain.

"Star Slinger!" yelled the yellow space ranger as she fired from her weapon. A bright, yellow beam of light shot from her weapon and struck the man. Sparks flew around as the yellow beams landed on its target.

"Satellite Stunner!" the pink space ranger followed. Pink waves of energy emitted from her satellite shaped weapon and stunned the enemy. She stood there holding her weapon hoping their combined attacks would be enough to stop the man.

Smoke filled the area where the man once stood and the rangers put away their weapons thinking they had succeeded. The rangers also powered down and returned to their human forms. When the smoke had finally cleared, an unmoving figure lie on the floor. The four women quickly approached the figure, wanting to question him.

"Who are you?" Kimberly questioned. She kicked the man so that she could look upon his face.

The man made no reply to her question. Unexpectedly, he jumped back to his feet and attacked the four women with a few hard kicks and punches. His blows were quick and strong and his left hand was mysteriously reappearing. Surprised and overwhelmed, the four women gave into unconsciousness.

Using this opportunity to take their morphers and their only chance to defeat him, he carried each of their unconscious forms to his ship and smiled at the many possible things he could do to these rangers.
