Jason and Zack tried to attack the monster with their power weapons, but the monster caught them both and flung them back, sending them crashing into the girls. "Well, this is a fine start to this fight." Alexis said to her teammates. "You should have seen him catch me in mid air and throw me." Cora told her. "So what now?" Jason asked.
Cassie and Alpha met the girls in the medical bay after they transported to the Megaship. Cassie and Kat hugged briefly as Alpha began scanning Kimberly. "So how do we determine why the coin wouldn't accept Kimberly?" Amber asked after Alpha turned to another console. "I'm not really sure." Alpha told her. "There is no reason that she shouldn't have been able to accept these powers."
As the rangers recovered, the black dragon monster shot out at the four rangers and they all moved to avoid it. Jason and Alexis wound up on the right side, Zack and Cora on the left side. "You rangers are pathetic. I expected better from you guys. Especially you, Purple Ranger. You're supposed to be the strongest of the rangers." The monster sneered. "I really don't like this thing." Alexis told Zack. "I hear you." Zack replied. The monster brought his fingers up and strange beams emanated from his fingernails and enveloped the four rangers. "These powers are weak, but I think I can make use of them. As my own." He said. "That's not going to happen." Tommy, clad as the Green Ranger, said as he ran in and before the monster could react, he leapt into the air and kicked the monster in the chest, then using the Dragon Dagger to severe the link between the beams and the monsters fingernails. "Tommy, am I glad to see you." Jason said as the four rangers came to his side.
"From what I can tell, you aren't compatible with the Pink power coin." Alpha told Kimberly as he turned to face her. "But how is that possible?" Kimberly asked. "I've been the Pink Ranger up until the point I gave my powers to Kat." "Kat's been the Pink Ranger from the point you gave your powers to her until she gave her Pink Turbo Powers to Cassie." Amber realized. "Maybe she is the one who should hold the Pink Powers." "But then what about Kimberly?" Kat asked. "I'm not sure. I'm going to scan you to make sure you are compatible with the pink coin. If you are, I'll scan the coins and then that should tell me who to find for our blue, yellow, and white rangers." Alpha explained. "Fine, but how does that help our friends on the surface?" Amber asked. No one responded to her question.
"Where is Kat?" Zack asked her. "She had to go to the Megaship with Kimberly and Amber." Tommy told her. "The White coin wasn't compatible with me, just like the Pink coin wasn't for Kimberly." "Why didn't she try the pink coin?" Jason asked him. "I'm not really sure." Tommy admitted. "We do have a monster to deal with." Cora reminded them. The monster rose and shot out at the five rangers, and they dodged to avoid the blast. They barely did it. It destroyed a table. "Maybe we shouldn't be fighting here." Alexis pointed out as the took a fighting stance. "Sure, all we have to do is lure it out of here." Zack said. "Simple enough." Jason told his four friends and then raised his voice. "If you want us, you'll have to come get us." He then ran out the nearest exit, the four rangers following him. Alexis noticed that the monster took after them.
Alpha finished his scan of Kat and then went over to the console to conduct his scans. A moment later he turned toward the girls. "Kat, you are compatible with the Pink coin." He informed her. "But what about Kimberly?" Amber and Kat asked in unison. "I'm not sure." Alpha told her. "Kat, morph and go help Tommy and the others. I'll see if I can figure out which power goes to who, Amber will stay here in case we need to get someone else." "I'm on it. Pink Ranger Power!"
Dark Dragon blasted at the five rangers, and they barely eluded the shots. They continued running forward. But the monster kept up with them. "I guess he took the bait." Zack pointed out. "Yeah, let's hope that this thing continues to have bad aim." Alexis told him. Unfortunately, the next shot the black dragon took at the rangers hit them all in the backs, and each of the rangers felt the wind knocked out of them for a second. When they recovered they saw the monster approaching them rapidly. "I guess his aim isn't as bad as we'd like." Cora pointed out. "We're out in the open now, and that's all that matters." Jason said. "Nothing will matter in a minute, because in a minute you will be dead." The black dragon threatened as he drew closer to the rangers, dark black energy balls forming in his hands. "We have to try and stop him from using those energy bolts." Tommy said as he rose to his feet, with Jason and Alexis rising slowly from behind them. 'Too late." The monster said as he rose his hands to shoot at the Rangers. There was the sound of something being shot and something cut through the monsters hand. The black ball evaporated and as he turned, the Pink Ranger kicked the dragon in the chest and landed beside Tommy and Jason as the monster fell to the ground. "Kim?" Jason asked. "Try again." Kat responded in her Australian accent. She could almost see Tommy smile when he realized she was back. "What about Kimberly?" Alexis asked her. "I'm not sure. Alpha is trying to find out who is supposed to get the other three coins. We need to keep the monster distracted while they track down the rest of our team." Kat informed them. "Easier said than done, but let's give it a shot." Zack said.
"I still don't understand why I couldn't use the pink powers." Kimberly told Amber and Cassie as she sat on the bio bed waiting for Alpha to find the holders of the three remaining coins. Amber shook her head. "I'm not sure either. But I'm guessing there is a logical reasoning for it." "I have it!" Alpha exclaimed, turning to them. "I have the readings of two holders in Angel Grove." He showed them the screen, showing a white and blue star at two locations. Amber pointed to the white one. "I know where that one is, I'll take care of it." She told them. "But what about the blue one?" Cassie asked her. "I'll check it out after I get our new White Ranger." Amber told her. "What about the yellow powers? Why is there no star for that one?" Kimberly asked Alpha. "I thought it was obvious." Alpha told her.
The now six rangers turned as the black dragon monster rose and laughed. "You rangers are so annoying. You insist on jumping into this fight as if one more ranger can possibly make a difference." The monster commented. Zack drew his Power Axe, Jason drew his Power Sword, Tommy drew his Dragon Dagger, and Kat drew her Power Bow. Cora drew her blaster and Alexis took a fighting stance. "Bring it on." Jason replied. Now the monster leapt out at the rangers, scratching Zack and Kat. Jason tried to kick him but he blocked, swung him around and struck him in the back. Cora blocked Jason from being further harmed from the monster but in turn was struck. Tommy and Alexis kicked the monster in the chest and he fell backward. "Everyone alright?" Tommy asked the team even as he knelt down beside his girlfriend. "We're all fine." Jason said, stopping to help Cora to her feet. "Not for long, rangers." The monster said as he shot out at them. They all fell back as his bolts struck home. "It's no use." Alexis said. "We can't dent that thing without our full team here."
Amy stood on the roof of her apartment building, practicing her karate. It helped her think when she was in a place where she could clear her mind and focus her thoughts. And being on the move helped. So there was no better place in the afternoon to be in those cases than on the roof of her complex. And she had found she had a lot of thinking to do. Ever since the Countdown to Destruction she had been considering how easily she had given up being a Power Ranger when Lord Zedd had destroyed the power coins. She felt she should have fought harder to become a ranger, for Zordon to track down a source of power for her. But she hadn't and she found she regretted that decision. "But I guess there is nothing I can do about that now." Amy said, and then sighed to herself. "Do about what?" she heard from behind her, and turned to see Amber standing there. Amy smiled fondly at her best friend. "Oh, hey. I was." she trailed off for a moment feeling really embarrassed that her friend had caught her talking to herself. "I was just thinking that I.should have done something to convince Zordon to find me another source of power just like you did. Then maybe I could have been more helpful." She explained. Amber nodded. "Yeah, you really should have. We really could use you." She pointed out. "I know." She conceded, right before she absorbed what her friend told her. "Don't you mean you could have used me?" "Well, yes. And No." Amber told her, opening the palm of her right and showing her the White Power coin. "We could have used you way back then, but how would you like another chance?"
Amy looked stunned. "But that's the white coin.how?" she asked. "Still looking into that." Amber conceded then continued, "But we do know that these coins hold stronger versions of the original powers, and for some reason you bare the signature of the white ranger now." "But Tommy." Amy started. "Is now the Green Ranger." Amber interrupted. "And is fighting with Jason, Zack, Kat, Alexis, and a new friend, Cora, in the park against a monster that drained us astral rangers of our powers. We need your help. Are you in?" she asked as she tossed the coin to her best friend. Amy caught it and nodded. "You know it." "Then, you know what to do." Amy nodded. "It's Morphin Time! White Ranger Power!"
"You're right." Jason agreed as he stood up. "But we need to try." Cora blasted at the monster, but he seemed to barely feel it. He shot at her, but a quick, straight lined cartwheel allowed her to dodge the attack. "Hey, I did it." She said to herself excitedly. She'd have to tell Kimberly later. Zack switched his Power Axe to cannon mode and shot at the monster now, but he took that impact as well as he took the impact he had gotten from Cora's blaster. "Nothing." He growled in frustration. "There's nothing you fools can do to me." The dragon monster told them as he started to approach them again.
Amber continued her way down to the park, secure in the knowledge that her friend would get to the others in time, but a little worried because Amy didn't have the training that she had. Amber knew she would have to correct that. As soon as she entered the park, she knew exactly who she had been sent to get. She smiled slightly, thinking the same thing Alexis had thought earlier, about it being old home week. She happily called out, "Rocky!" Rocky DeSantos turned when he heard his name being called out and smiled when he saw Amber running up to him. They exchanged a brief hug before he said, "Hey, Amber. It's nice to see you again. But this isn't a social call, is it?" Amber shrugged a little. "No, it isn't. But I really should start making these type of calls thought. How's your back?" she asked him "Doing great. I haven't had any troubles with it for a long time. Almost makes me wish that I could become a Power Ranger again." He replied. "Be careful what you wish for." Amber warned, as her smile grew wider. "Because you just might get it." She took the Triceratops coin out of her pocket and showed it to him. "You're up again, if you are interested." Rocky smiled. "Wow, am I ever!" he paused a minute. "What's going on?" "Darkconda incapacitated our powers, but Jason found this coin, along with the others, at the beach. We have everyone fighting or on their way now. Are you in?" she explained to him. "You know it." Rocky said, and after they made their way to a secluded area he called out, "Blue Ranger Power!"
"It's not obvious. At least not to me." Cassie told Alpha. "It's not obvious to me either." Kimberly added. "The only way that is wouldn't be on Earth is if the bearer was already in Space." Alpha explained, taking the Yellow Coin and putting it into Kimberly's hand. Yellow energy traveled up her arm. "You are the Yellow Ranger." "Wow." Kimberly responded, totally surprised. It was her that had suggested Tommy was the Green Ranger instead of the White Ranger, but she had never thought to try switching her own color. Cassie smiled. "I get it now." She turned to Kimberly. "The others need you, you better get going." Kimberly nodded, then called out. "Yellow Ranger Power!"
At last all the new/old Rangers have been revealed. But will it be enough to stop the Dark Dragon? What will the Wizard and Darkconda do when they discovered this team? How will they adapt to being Rangers again after so long a time? This and much more coming up next.
Jason and Zack tried to attack the monster with their power weapons, but the monster caught them both and flung them back, sending them crashing into the girls. "Well, this is a fine start to this fight." Alexis said to her teammates. "You should have seen him catch me in mid air and throw me." Cora told her. "So what now?" Jason asked.
