Mean green part 5

"The Green Ranger has the Dragonzord, Spi-Dor is with him in giant size, I think the Power Rangers are finally done for," Lord Zedd is incredibly pleased with himself, "I am not done yet though." He turns to his main underling, "Goldar go down there and make sure those goody-goodies don't win."

"Of course my lord," Goldar responds before teleporting to join in the fight.

"Do you really think that brainless ape can finish the Rangers," Rita Repulsa asks her husband.

"I don't think it maters, my dear," Zedd laughs, "I think anyone could destroy the Power Rangers if they were backed up by Spi-Dor and the Dragonzord."

The Hero Megazord has gained the support of the White Spiderzord and it has resulted in an even contest, the Dragonzord has focused on the Megazord while the monster has focused on the White Rangers giant machine. The Dragonzord unloads the missiles stored in its fingers, but they are blocked by the Megazords Wing-shield. A combination of punches, kicks and sword swings allows the Megazord to regain control for the moment. It doesn't last long as Goldar arrives and attacks the Megazord, the Dragonzord then joins in again and the Megazord is double-teamed.

In the meantime the Spiderzord has managed to get the upper hand against the monster of the week, the incredible agility and speed of the Spiderzord is unmatched by Spi-Dor, allowing the multi-legged Zord to hit and run. The monster is never able to catch the Zord and the Zord keeps landing kicks.

"Tommy," Rocky calls over the communication systems, "a little help would be appreciated."

"Not a problem," Tommy responds, his Zord slows to a stop between the other battle and Zedd's monster, recoiling ready to spring. The monster spits a web bolt at the white Zord, unfortunately this was what the White Ranger was hoping for and easily avoids the attack, jumping over the top of it. The webbing hits Goldar trapping him in a cocoon. While in the air the Spiderzord back-flips forward landing on Spi-Dor, embedding its two fang-like blades into the monster. An electric wave travels through the fangs and into Spi-Dor, the energy travels through the monster and then the monster is no more.

Suddenly the Dragonzord is at a two on one disadvantage, the Green Ranger sees the disadvantage and decides that discretion is the better part of valour and retreats, sending the Dragonzord back to the depths, and teleports back to the moon.

"We did it," Rocky says almost shocked by this.

"Not yet we didn't," Tommy disagrees, "the Green Ranger got away."

"We really need to find out who that guy is," Adam suggests.

"I think I know who he is," Tommy tells them.

"Who," all the others ask in unison.

"Eddy."

"Tommy," Kat says exasperated, "I know you don't like him but don't just…"

Tommy cuts her off, "no, I mean it. The Green Ranger said something to me, and it was, well, British."

"He has a point," Billy agrees.

"Thanks Billy."

"Eddy has beaten Tommy, I can't think of anyone else who has."

"Yeah, he beat me because he's evil."

"No," Billy continues, "I don't think he was evil then." Tommy is visibly disappointed.

"I still don't believe it," Kat interjects.

"Okay guys," Adam adds, "no mater who the Green Ranger is, we should get back to the command centre."

The Rangers teleport back to their base while the Zords vanish back to the storage bay.

"I thought you said that your Green Ranger was something special," Rita complains, "he's no better then any of your other creations."

Zedd shares her rage but has decided to direct it towards the Green Ranger when he returns, and he is more worried about finding a way to beat the Power Rangers permanently. With no flourish or fanfare the Green Ranger enters the moon base.

"You waste of power," Rita turns her rage on the newcomer, "you're not even half the Green Ranger that pathetic Tommy was and that was after I took away his powers."

"Oh yeah," responds Eddy as infuriated as his superiors, "you've done so well against them haven't you. I must be such a disappointment to you, all these monsters you've used have done such a great job haven't they. The monster I had backing me up wasn't exactly a first rate Ranger beater, and your simple simian is even worse. If you don't like my efforts against the Power Rangers why don't you try doing it yourself, your nothing more then a mouth on legs. No one can beat the Rangers when there out numbered six to one."

"You have a good point," Zedd agrees as a scheme enters his mind.

Rita is appalled, "what you agree with this ghastly green good for nothing…"

"Oh do shut up woman, you are a mouth on legs. I have a wonderfully wicked idea, we have the Rangers enter the maze of infinity. There are endless passageways within the maze and without Zordon to teleport them out they will be stuck in inside forever, where we can pick them off one by one."

"And I have an idea about how to get them into the maze," the Green Ranger adds.

The Rangers, with the exception of Billy who is still working out a way to get Zordon back, have demorphed and are in the park searching for clues towards the identity of the Green Ranger. Tommy is certain who the Green Ranger is and the others think he may be right, with the exception of Kat who is refusing to believe it. They pass Bulk and Skull who have been given instructions to check the park, to stop any disturbances and look after the Angel Grove residents.

They pass a comment about the five teens, and advise them to stay out of trouble while, "Angel Grove's finest do their jobs."

"Sure," Aisha tells them, "You tell us when they get here."

Before they have time to respond the Green Ranger appears behind them. "Angel Grove's finest are you," he mocks, "then you'll be wanting a word with me, no."

They turn and see who is stood behind, scream and run until they realise how heroic they would be if they managed to arrest this new villain. In the mean time the quintet slip into a darkened part of the park behind a group of trees to call on the towns resident champions.

"We arrest you in the name of the City of Angel Grove," Bulk gulps, "will you come along quietly."

"Yeah," Skull adds failing to be intimidating.

"What do you think," Asks the evildoer smugly.

"I think you should step away from them," the newly arrived White Ranger called.

"Oh wait," added the Red Ranger, "you weren't talking to us, were you."

"Oh no, the goody-good guys, what ever shall I do."

"You're going down this time," Tommy warns him, "the Power Rangers are stopping you."

"You have to catch me first," the Green Ranger mocks as he runs towards the trees.

The other Rangers follow him until they reach a gateway, the entrance to the maze of infinity, the Rangers however don't realise this. They see the Green Ranger at the other side and step over the threshold. They chase down the single pathway until it forks out to three different routes, this leads to short questioning about the path to take.

"Right we should split up," Tommy decides.

"Don't you think that's a bit, you know, insane," Aisha asks.

"Remember," Adam points out, "our greatest strength is our ability to work as a team."

"I know that, I just want to stop this guy as soon as possible, don't you trust my ideas," Tommy responds.

"This Green Ranger thing has you off," Rocky points out. "It's like your fighting yourself, or someone you think might be trying to replace you."

"I'm not worried about him trying to be what I was, I've bin there and done that, I just think he enjoys it too much."

"Which is why we need to stay together," Adam tells him.

"Look you guys go off together if you want, I'm going down a different path to try and catch him a bit quicker."

"Look, Tommy," Kat points out wearily, "I don't think it's a good idea for any of us to be alone in here. I think that if we are alone he'll try and pick us off one at a time."

"He can try," Tommy tells them, before he walks off down one of the paths leaving the other Rangers in shock.
