A/N: Here comes one of the most epic battles.

Chapter Four-The End of Evil

KO-35

Karone said to the fighter pilots, "Now we must hurry, from the signs we've been getting, the end of our freedom is near, and we must stop Divatox from accomplishing her evil deeds, now move it!"

The pilots went to their ships as James came to Karone, she wrapped her arms around him and said, "I'm scared James, I mean what if we're too late?"

James said to Karone, "Don't worry, we won't be, I'm sure we'll be able to prevent the end of the world,"

Karone kissed James and said, "Let's get to the ship,"

They ran to a large ship, taking off as Karone said, "Prepare to open the portal," as the pilots waited for entry to the Lost Dimension. They entered as they saw Divatox's ship, and thousands of other little fighters emerge from it.

"Crap," Karone muttered before announcing to the fleet, "Incoming velocifighters; stand by,"

The fighters came close, firing blasts as the fighters as they returned fire and began the dogfight. A fleet of the fighters took aim at Karone's ship, as she shouted to the pilots, "Accelerate to attack speed; draw their fire away from me," as the pilots continued in the treacherous fight.

THE PLANET OF THE STONES

Divatox stomped around as a black sky began swirling around the planet. She began zapping at the rangers as they were running to hide.

"Rangers, oh Rangers, come out to PLAY!" Divatox cackled.

"What do we do?" Kyle shouted above the thunder and lightning.

"Let's try morphing," Greg suggested.

The rangers raised their morphers and called out, "DIMENSION FREEDOM!" as the morphers exploded in their hands.

Divatox cackled and said sarcastically, "What is it you usually would say now? SOMETHING ABOUT MORPHING TIME? AH-HA!"

Marta saw the crystal behind Divatox and began reciting a spell. Suddenly a sword slammed into the ground as Marta picked it up. The other rangers came over to her.

"Marta, what are you doing?" Samantha asked.

"There's only one way to stop Divatox, I have to slice through the crystal!" Marta replied.

"NO, YOU'LL DIE TRYING, THERE'S NO WAY YOU'LL GET TO IT!" Greg shouted.

Marta kissed Greg on the lips and said, "I'm not going to die!" as she turned to other rangers, "DISTRACT HER FOR ME AND I GUARANTEE I CAN GET THERE!"

The rangers nodded, and ran right in front of Divatox, nearly getting hit by her blasts.

She began walking as Divatox had her back turned to her, and came to the crystal. She said, "Spirits of the wild, help me!"

She raised the sword and sliced straight through the crystal. Divatox heard this and turned, screaming, "WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING? NOOO!!!!!!"

A white light engulfed the planet and passed through space and the dimension, heading to the other dimension. As the KO-35 fleet stopped their fighting with the velocifighters, they watched as the light struck Divatox's ship as it exploded in a blinding wave of heat and light, as it also did with the velocifighters.

Back on the planet, the light hit Divatox more and more as she exploded, leaving a pile of ashes on the rocky ground. The light hit Nikara, as she spun around in the air, changing from the exotic dress back into the long white gown that she had worn before, Zelda had returned. The light stopped as the crystal separated into the six stones, dropping them on the ground, and the rangers ran to Zelda, embracing her in a hug.

"We thought we had lost you for good," Samantha said tears in her eyes.

Zelda said, "As long as you have the ranger attributes of faith, endurance, power, courage, friendship and hope, I will never be lost, rangers,"

She turned and saw next to Divatox's ashes, Marta, dead on the ground. Greg ran over to her, trying to wake her up.

"Marta, we won, wake up. Marta, you can . . .wake up now. Please, please wake up," as tears formed in Greg's eyes.

He bent down; crying that the woman he loved was now dead.

"Zelda, can we use the Stones to bring Marta back?" Kyle asked.

"Of course, Greg, take Marta's stone, and each of you call out the attribute of the ranger symbolized in the stone," Zelda said.

The rangers grabbed the stones, forming a circle around Marta. They raised the stones to the sky, and watched as the stones began glowing.

"Faith!" Samantha called as her stone glowed green, white, pink, and red.

"Endurance!" Kyle called as his stone glowed red and platinum

"Power!" Neil called as his glowed blue.

"Courage!" Susan called as hers glowed yellow.

"Friendship. . . .and hope!" Greg called as his glowed black and green, and Marta's glowed pink.

The stones' colorful beams of power hit Marta and the rangers watched in amazement as she breathed in, alive once again. Greg bent down, hugging her tightly. The rangers turned seeing someone teleporting onto the planet, and smiled as they reunited with Karone and James.

"Rangers, you have made me extremely proud today, we have finally eliminated Divatox and saved the universe from her treachery," Zelda said.

"Zelda, are you sad that she, your sister is dead?" Susan asked.

"No, Divatox was not my sister, my sister Deva has been gone for nearly two thousand years. Now rangers, if you would excuse me, I must break the universal barrier between this dimension and yours. This dimension is lost no longer," Zelda said.

Zelda stood on the altar, and white lightning emitted from her fingertips as the planet shook. A black barrier broke into pieces as the dimension joined with the earthen rangers galaxy. On Amazonia, the people were freed as Zelda's magic turned the planet back into the planet of Eltar. In the other parts of the universe, the other villains were destroyed, or turned to good if they truly once WERE good. Karone pressed a button and the group was beamed onto her ship.

KARONE'S PERSONAL STARSHIP

On Karone's starship, a magnificent feast was prepared for the rangers in honor of their triumph. Samantha and Kyle sat together, as did Karone and James, Greg and Marta, and Susan and Neil. As a ceremonial dance began, the couples came together to dance. However, the men walked away and said this to the woman they loved.

"We love you so much, and want to spend our lives with you, will you marry us?" the men said as they opened boxes with engagement rings on them.

Each woman ran to her man and hugged them saying yes, as they slipped the engagement rings on. The next day, Zelda married the happy couples just as they returned to Earth. The rangers, minus Karone and James landed inside the Power Chamber.

THE POWER CHAMBER

Zelda said, "Rangers, I will always be here, but now go and enjoy life, your duty is finished, if ever a crisis arises, I will call on you,"

The rangers nodded as Zelda teleported them out of the Power Chamber.

EPILOGUE

Samantha and Kyle stayed in Angel Grove, Kyle became a martial arts instructor at the Youth Center, and the couple became the first of the team to have a child, Kelly.

Greg and Marta became archaeologists, traveling all over the world and finding traces of Zelda and Zordon in every adventure they were on.

Karone and James became inventors, inventing the first time machine and traveled to the year 3000, heading the Time Force power rangers team.

Neil and Susan went to Los Angeles and became coaches of Olympic athletes.

THE PLANET OF THE POWER STONES-EIGHT YEARS LATER

The man walked to where the ashes of Divatox were. Purple ooze spit out onto the ashes as shoes were seen, then legs, and finally the face of Divatox. The Queen of all Evil had returned.
