Hey everyone! I just want to say thank you for all the supportive reviews
I've been getting! They really help me to see that I'm doing a good job!
Keep them coming please! I'd like to know what you think about characters,
plots, etc. And without further ado, the next chapter....
* * * * **************************************************************
Sam was strapped to a metal looking 'dentist chair.' Her arms and legs tied to the chair, making an attempt to struggle free futile. Elsa and Zeltrax stood over their prize triumphantly. It was their first mission that had gone right in a long time, Mesagog would be so proud of them!
"Welcome..." a cold voice said from the shadows. Sam turned her head to see Mesagog emerge from the shadows. She had seen him only once before, the day he had killed her parents. Resentment and anger filled her being as she looked at his smug face moving from the shadows to beside her. "I believe the last time we met there was an unfortunate accident..." he said to her.
"You killed my parents," Sam sneered at him
"Ah yes...but I was referring to losing the Guardian gem," Mesagog said, knowing full well that he would hit a nerve.
"I don't know what you mean..." Sam said holding back the urge to jump at him.
"Oh, I believe you do..." Mesagog said coming way too close for comfort to Sam, "And I know who you are as well, and without you and the gem together the power rangers are useless."
"They've defeated your monsters before, they'll do it again," Sam said defiant.
"Ah but with the Guardian and her gem stone separated, the Rangers don't know it yet, but their powers will begin to diminish. You see when you laid your fingers on that gem, it connected you with the Rangers and every moment that you're away from that gem, the Rangers' powers are getting weaker and weaker," Mesagog said triumphantly.
Sam couldn't say anything back. What could she say? Was Mesagog telling the truth? * * *
Meanwhile, the Rangers, Hayley and Tommy had all regrouped back at Tommy's lab. Connor was pacing around frantically. He was distraught. He had been so close to saving Sam and now who knew what Mesagog was doing to her. Tommy was also pretty upset, but was channelling all his worry into finding her.
"We need to find an Invisi-portal," Hayley said sitting at the screens, "They no doubt took her to Mesagog's island."
"Look there," Tommy said finding one just outside the school's boundary lines.
"Great let's morph and get Sam back," Ethan said.
The three Rangers lined up and together said, "Dino Thunder, Power Up!" However only Ethan and Connor were able to morph, leaving Kira still in her street clothes.
"Whoa, what's happening?" Kira said looking to her own dino gem. The once bright yellow light that always emitted from the gem was flickering and fading.
"Look the Guardian gem is doing the same," Ethan said. They all went over to the Guardian gem to see that its light too was flickering, but that wasn't the only thing. Inside of the gem, the three Rangers lights were still there, except the yellow light was fading fast.
"Does this mean what I think it means?" Kira said looking to Tommy.
"Yes...the longer Sam's away from her gem, the less power you'll have. It seems that she is connected through this gem to the three of you," Tommy said with a sigh, "And it's all my fault...I should have lessened up on the whole protecting her."
"You were just looking out for her," Hayley said reassuringly and then turned to Ethan and Connor, "And if you don't hurry, your powers will go too..."
"Right!" Ethan said and him and Connor left the lab quickly. It didn't take them long to get to the coordinates of the Invisi-portal, and they were just in time as it opened up on their arrival. Ethan turned to Connor, "You ready?"
Connor looked to the portal with determination. Sam was on the other side, "Let's go," he said and jumped into the portal and disappearing into it.
"Hey wait up!" Ethan said and jumped into the portal joining Connor.
