Chapter 9: Breakaway
Out of the Astronema's ship a rogue space ship breaks through the bay days. Inside the cockpit sits Andros in the driver's seat. Zhane sits in the passenger side and in the back seat Astronema. Zhane open a channel to the Astro ship. "Guys we're coming in with a visitor." He said closing the channel.
"Alright." TJ said receiving the transmission. He turns around to an unfriendly group. "I know what you're going to say but Karone and Astronema are the same. Darkonda kidnapped the girl when she was young. Darkonda offered the young girl to Dark Specter who used this girl to become the Princess of evil. Dark Specter employed Rita, Lord Zedd, the Machine Empire, and Divatox to help him take over the galaxy. Zordon rose up against him along with other sages such as Ninjor and Dimitria they help create various powers. All of these powers were created to be the source of power to various power ranger teams when needed. Now that Zordon had been capture, Dark Specter is close to his dream of conquering the galaxy. Soon an attack will be launch where every villain in ranger history will lead a front. Where the Power rangers are powerless to stop them and it takes the sacrifice of Zordon to stop it." TJ said.
"Wow it's like that?" Cassie asked.
"Worst when you do it the second time around. But this in fact is my third time. And it doesn't get any easier. Every move you make changes history but it doesn't necessarily mean to a different goal. It just may mean that the outcome is the same but the way of getting there changes." TJ rambles. The other rangers look at one another.
"What are you talking about?" Cassie asked.
"When all of this is over I will explain everything. But right now we have to make sure everything is in order." TJ said turning back to the console.
The figure walks on to the board of Divatox's sub craft. "Divatox get your sorry butt out here." He bellowed. Divatox awakens from her sleep, stumbled out of her bed and on to the main deck. "It's four in the morning what could be possible so important for you to come aboard MY SHIP and cause such a disturbance?" Divatox asked nicely.
"The rangers have freed Karone from her Astronema state. This is you chance to be come the Princess of Evil." The figure said. Divatox cracked a smile at the figure's words.
The rouge space ship flew by Andros continue it's path towards the Mega ship. "You two dated?" Andros asks not sure whether to be happy or be outraged like older brothers. Karone and Zhane looked at each other. "It was more like two and then she sent a monster that stopped me from showing up on time." Zhane said.
"I told you that I did not send down that monster. It seemed that Ecliptor was aware of our budding relationship and wanted to put a stop to it." Karone said taking off the Astronema wig.
"Well why didn't you just tell me that?" Zhane asked.
"By that time I wanted to destroy you." She answered.
"For being a ranger." Zhane replied.
"No for standing me up. You never do that to a girl. Let alone the Princess of Evil." She laughed. Andros rolled his eyes at the conversation. "You two sound like an old married couple." Andros laughed.
"This would qualify as our first verbal fight. The make up part comes next right?" Zhane asked leaning to the back seat. Andros flashed the silver ranger a looked. "Um yeah I don't think that's what I should be concern with. Instead the on coming flyers should be taken in consideration." Zhane said turning forward.
"Time to take some evasive action." Andros said pulling back on the controls. Two flyers fired yellow energy beams. Andros managed to dodge a few of the beams, but he was unable to dodge the other two. "Sorry guys its no Mega ship." He said. Eight more flyers joined the other two flyers. "I'm heading into that Asteroid field." Andros said. Karone and Zhane looked at each other then strapped on their seatbelts.
The flyers fired at the ship as it entered into the asteroid field. Andros managed to lose a few of the flyers within the field. Two flyers crashed into two asteroids. The other six flew through the explosion firing on the ship. "Zhane on that console controls our weapons system." Andros said.
"What this bucket of bolts has a weapon system." Zhane said flipping over a panel. He typed in a series of codes, given him access to the weapons system. A small radar screen lowered from the roof. The green blimps on the screen represented the flyers behind them. Two laser blasters extended from the side of the ship then aimed backwards at the flyers. The flyers flew beside the rouge ship. The lasers aimed at the flyers firing a weak yellow laser at them. "It's only fitting." Zhane sighed. More flyers appeared out of nowhere they released a barrage of energy beams on the ship. Sparks flew everywhere on the ship.
"I have no choice but to take her down on to the planet." Andros said. The ship descended toward a Black and silver planet. Once the ship had made its way through the planet's atmosphere, Andros switch the flight mode of the ship to a terrain mode. "Whoa have you ever driven a car before?" Zhane asked. The terrain vehicle merged in with traffic. This particular planet seemed to be industrialized like earth, resembling a heavy populated city. "Plenty of times if you can't the mega tank." Andros replied. Zhane closed his eyes letting out a huge sigh.
"Our main objective is to return Astronema." A pilot of a flyer said, following the rangers into the freeway. The other flyers joined the captain. One of the flyers flew beside another yellow space vehicle that was beside the rangers. The gun turret aimed at the yellow vehicle and proceeded to fire on the vehicle. After ten shots the space vehicle flies up in the air crashing on its side. Karone looks out the back seat watching the vehicle slammed into other vehicles. A terrified look appeared on her face she kneels down in the back seat. "Is this worth it?" she thinks.
Andros tried to keep the vehicle steady under the ongoing fire of the captain flyer. A transport vehicle (similar to a transfer truck) comes into his sight. Andros is able to shield the vehicle from the captain flyer's blasts. For a while Andros cruises beside the transport vehicle, but his rest is interrupted when the captain flyer appeared in front of them. The blaster aimed at another vehicle firing on it causes the vehicle to flip over blocking the way of the other flyers. The captain flyer leaps out of his flyer and on top of the rouge ship.
"Oh no it's a Slovaic." Karone squealed.
"Nothing to worry about there is any way it can get in." Zhane said.
"That's the thing It." Before she could finish the Slovaic altered its molecular pattern and slid into the back seat of the vehicle. "Time to die princess." The Slovaic said. Zhane pulled out an astro blaster from under his seat he aimed the weapon at the creature but it was kicked out of his hand landing on the floor.
The Slovaic pulled out a blade to slit Karone's neck with. Zhane punched the creature in the face. The creature attempted to slash the neck of the silver ranger but Andros elbowed the creature in the face. Zhane wrapped the seat belt around the arm holding the blade of the creature. Andros tries to sped pass the flyer but it blocks his way. Zhane continuously punched the creature in the face while holding its blade arm down. Some how the creature is able to cut the restraint and jabbed at the ranger. Zhane bent down grabbed his fallen blaster and shoots the Slovaic out of the vehicle.
Vehicles begin to flip over each other until in one huge explosion all the vehicles behind the rangers are gone. The flyers rocketed through the flames heading towards the rangers. "I'm starting to get aggravated." Zhane said. A partition appears in the next section of the freeway. "We can't stay on this freeway too many lives are being taken because of me." Karone said. "I'm causing just as much damage as Karone as I did as Astronema." She added.
"Don't say that." Andros said. He was about to say more but found himself being pushed against the partition by another flyer. "Looks like they found us." Andros said trying to force the vehicle off the partition. Andros turns the opposite direction into the partition busting through the structure. The vehicle stopped in the middle of another road. All three teens exited the vehicle. "Zhane get her out of here." Andros said.
"Right. Let's rocket. Silver Space Cycle" Zhane said grabbing Karone. Both flipped into the air as the teen became the Silver ranger and mounted his space cycle. Andros stood as the Red space ranger waiting for flyers to come. Three came through the opening Andros on his galaxy glider charged towards them. His spiral saber in his left the Red space ranger slashed through the side of the flyers destroying them as his passed.
Zhane and Karone zipped through traffic after they left Andros back there. "Should be smooth sailing from here on out." Zhane yelled. He wasn't aware that two flyers were motioning another transport vehicle to move over to the partition. "Zhane look." Karone said tapping the ranger on the back of the head. Zhane slowed down just in time for the transport vehicle to slam into the partition. Zhane turns around heading in the opposite direction. More flyers followed behind them opening fired passed them. Andros comes down swoops up his sister off the cycle and on to his glider then heads off into the sky.
"The boy means nothing to us." One flyer said. A monster that looks like the silver surfer appeared out of the sky. "Some one has been reading too many comic books." Andros remarked. He looks around at the limited space he has to fight. If Karone was not on the glider he would have more than enough, but that was not the situation. "Karone stay down as much as you can. The two surfing warriors trade a few punches, but the monster is able to almost knock the ranger off his board. Andros regained his footing. The monster looked over at the girl.
Andros took a fighting position. This time Andros is able to push back the monster. Andros leapt high into the air and landed on the monster's board. The monster punched Andros back on to his board and tried the same jump tactic that Andros had done. Andros kicked upward in the air to stop the monster. The monster flipped over the board and landed face first on his. Spiral saber in hand the red ranger dives with his saber on to the monster's board. The monster slowed the board. Andros falls on to a passing vehicle. The monster speeds his board up to the flying galaxy glider. "You last act as Princess is to die." The monster said ready to blast the girl.
Andros leaps off from the ground and slashed the monster in the back. The silver monster falls off his board on to the ground. The last remaining flyers head straight towards Andros and Karone. "We have no other option but to jump." Karone said holding on to her brother's hand. Andros nodded his head and leapt off with his sister. His glider crashed into the remaining flyers. A red explosion ranged through the air, a red flying car swooped in to catch the two teens. "TJ." Andros said landing in the passenger seat with his sister on his lap.
"Remind me to teach you how to drive later." Tj joked.
