Chapter 3: A Ranger Reborn
What was seen upon the Viewing Globe was what appeared to be the Green Ranger, but it also wasn't. The shoulders on the chest plate were curved upward & there was a very stylized "X" on the front. The helmet was more dragon-like & he had a sword on his back with the hilt of a dragon's head with the blade sticking out of its open mouth. This had to be the Green Ranger, but it couldn't have been. No one knew who it really was at the time.
The heroes seemed to be speechless. Finally, Billy broke the silence. "Who is that? He looks like the Green Ranger." Kimberly was stunned. "But, how?" She questioned. "The Green Ranger's powers were supposed to be gone for good." Zordon continued with his news giving. "This is true Kimberly. But our readings seem to show that he is conceivably much more powerful than Tommy was."
"But, Zordon," Tommy started. "What about the Green Candle? And Lord Zedd's plot to destroy my powers when I was the Green Ranger?" Alpha 5 gave his answer to the heroes.
"We aren't sure Rangers. But our analysis shows that he does possess a Power Coin." Rocky was confused. "How did he get the coin? Did Rita & Zedd make a new one?"
"It may seem that way." Zordon started. "But whoever's side he's on, you must find out how he got it & where he came from." Adam spoke, assuring Zordon. "Don't worry Zordon. We'll get the job done." "Good luck, Rangers. And may the power protect you." Zordon said, giving them his good luck quote. "Alright, guys." Tommy began, readying himself to do battle. "It's morphing time!"
(You all should know what happens next.")
The Green Ranger was standing at the edge of the building, looming over the city like the shadow of death itself.
"Ah, Angel Grove City. Home of the Power Rangers. It's too bad that I must destroy this beautiful city." The Green Ranger said silently to himself. Then, a voice was heard.
"Stop!"
It was the six heroes. "Green Ranger!" Tommy exclaimed. "What are you doing here?" The Ranger just stood there. He then pulled the sword out of his sheath & slowly turned to meet their gaze. They could see a red, glowing eye through the visor of the helmet. He spoke. "The Mighty Morphing Power Rangers. We meet at last." Without saying another word, he lunged forward at great speed & struck all six of the Rangers at once. They all collapsed under the shear strength of his blow. He looked back at them.
They all began to stagger to their feet. "Hey," Adam began. "Why are you doing all of this? Are you really the Green Ranger?" The red eye on the Ranger's helmet faded. He spoke again. "If you want proof, I'll show you." With that, he reached for the Morpher on his belt, took out a coin, & tossed it at the White Ranger's feet. He slowly bent down to pick it up & examined it. It had the same design as the original coin!
