The rangers- except Carter- were sitting in the common room talking.

"Well let's just hope that Queen Bansheera won't have one of her demons attack while Carter's in the med room," Joel said. Everyone agreed.

"So how about we talk about something other than Carter and the demons and business stuff?" Kelsey suggested. Everyone nodded and went silent thinking of something to talk about.

"Well I heard-" Chad was cut off by the alarm going off.

"Let's go," Dana said as they hurried to the Rescue Rover. Dana drove since Carter was gone.

"How can we do this alone?" Joel asked while Dana was speeding down the streets to the attack.

"We're not alone, Joel. We can do this. Now let's go!" Dana replied stopping the vehicle. They quickly got out and morphed when they saw Diabolico, once again trying to destroy the town.

"Hey! Over here!" Ryan yelled. Diabolico turned around.

"Well, well, well. If it isn't the power rangers. Oh, and without their leader I see? Well take this!" Diabolico exclaimed and fired at them. They all moved out of the way. Joel took out his blaster and fired back at Diabolico. He was hit and stumbled backwards while the rest of the rangers- besides Ryan- took out their blasters and Ryan took out his Titanium laser. When Diabolico was back to his feet, the rangers all fired at him together. The force of the four blasters and the one Titanium laser knocked Diabolico backwards off his feet crashing to the ground.

"And now to finish you off!" Joel exclaimed. "Ready!" The five rangers again fired their lasers at him. He rolled out of the way, quickly got up and fired one last time at the rangers, and with an evil laugh disappeared.

"He's gone!" Kelsey exclaimed once she stood up. They all looked around but saw nothing. While they were looking around for Diabolico down on the streets, he was really on top of a building watching them with Jinxer right next to him.

"Jinxer! Get a large monster down there! And batlings!" Diabolico ordered.

"At once," Jinxer replied and threw the cards down to the ground below. After reciting a spell the batlings and monster grew.

"Guys! Looks out!" Dana yelled being the first to see the batlings coming at them. They rangers began fighting the batlings. Kelsey suddenly noticed the monster that had just grown to it's full size and was coming up behind Ryan.

"Ryan! Behind you!" Kelsey shouted. Ryan looked behind him and fired his Titanium laser before quickly running to the others.

"Thanks Kels. Guys we need the megazords," Ryan said. The others agreed. The four power rangers summoned the Lighspeed Megazord and Ryan summoned his own Megazord. (A/N: sorry i dont remember what thats called!) They were soon completed and the rangers got in their megazords.

"Ok guys, let do it!" Dana said. The two megazords began battling the monster. After what seemed like hours but really wasn't, the monster showed some signs of weakness. Dana knew then that one more fire from both megazords together should do it.

"Ryan, we need you to fire at the monster the same time we do. That should do it. Ready? One,,, two,,, fire!" Dana exclaimed and the two megazords fired at the monster many times until it fell and blew up. The rangers cheered and congratulated each other.

"Jinxer! I thought this wouldn't fail!" Diabolico yelled at him now watching from behind a tree.

"I'm sorry. I thought it couldn't," Jinxer replied.

"Well it looks like it's up to us then. Jinxer get me a batling card. Make it grow. The rangers are probably too tired to fight me and the batlings," Diabolico ordered.

"Oh, at once," Jinxer replied pulling out a batling card.

"Well, looks like we're done here," Joel said as the five rangers met back up on the street.

"Yeah. Let's go," Kelsey agreed. Suddenly something attacked Dana from behind. Dana fought it off. She saw it was a batling.

"Guys! Batlings!" Dana exclaimed. The rangers began fighting off more batlings. Suddenly Diabolico showed up again.

"Diabolico! I'm about tired of him!" Joel said.

"I'll get him. You guys keep fighting the batlings," Ryan said. He ran over to Diabolico and took out his Titanium laser.

"Titanium ranger? Back for more?" Diabolico sneered. Ryan didn't reply but fired his laser at Diabolico. He stumbled backwards. Ryan fired again. He kept firing until Diabolico was off his feet lying on his back on the ground.

"Had enough?" Ryan asked. Without waiting for an answer he fired again and Diabolico, along with the batlings, disappeared.

"Now I think we're done. Diabolico, then a monster and batlings, then Diabolico and batlings. Yeah I'm pretty sure that's it for today. Let's go back to the base now," Chad said. The rangers got back into the Rescue Rover and drove back to the Aqua Base. They went to the med room when they got back. When they walked in the were covered in scratches, cuts, and bruises.

"I heard the alarm. What happened?" Carter asked once they came in and sat down.

"Well when we first arrived we thought it would just be Diabolico. It started out that way. We thought we'd only be battling him today," Dana started.

"But we couldn't have been more wrong. After we got rid of Diabolico, some batlings and a huge monster showed up," Kelsey added.

"So we needed the megazords to beat the monster. Then after we defeated that, Diabolico showed up again," Ryan put in.

"We finally got rid of him and the batlings he came with," Chad said.

"And then we left, and now we're here talking about it," Joel finished.

"I bet he was so hard on you today because he thought since I was gone he could get you guys easily," Carter said.

"Most likely," Dana agreed.

"Well he was wrong," Joel said.

"Yeah. So you get out tomorrow right? Ok well-" Kelsey was cut off by a nurse walking in.

"I need to ask you five to leave for the night. Carter needs his rest and he'll be released tomorrow," the nurse said politely. The rangers said goodbye and left the room for the remainder of the night.
