Chapter 11: Countdown to Destruction Again pt 1
TJ limped out of a burning building. He fell to the ground he was exhausted from battle. He looked around at first it seemed the rangers had everything under control. But now as he watched his friends fall to the hands of their former villains he knew that everything he had worked for was over. "I told you ranger that my plan would work. I just wanted it more." The figure said. "And now for you." The figure said firing a blast at the Red Turbo Ranger.
"NOOOO!" TJ screamed. TJ rose out of the bed with sweat beading down his face and chest. TJ's father entered the room. "Son is everything ok?" he asked.
"Yes. It was just a bad nightmare. Everything's fine." TJ replied. His father closed the door behind him. "For now." TJ said fallen back asleep.
Divatox stands a few feet from the figure sitting in Astronema's throne. "The time has finally come to implement my plan. Gather all the forces so they can unite as one." The figure said.
Divatox smiled. "The battle has begun." She cheered. Quickly Divatox leaves the figure and heads off to her school of piranatrons, quantrons and monsters. She looks over the sea of bad guys. "When we are finish here today. There will be no good left in the universe. No love, happiness, joy or any other sappy emotion humans' display. There will only be chaos." She yells. The piranatrons, quantrons and monsters begin to cheer at her speech. She holds up her hand to quiet them. "Fight strong against all forces of goodness, especially the Power Rangers. Go now spread darkness as far as you can reach." She added. She lowers her arm for the monsters to cheer again. At the end of Divatox's speech thousands of velocifighters exit from the Dark Ship heading towards Earth.
Clank and Obis walk into the King Mondo's chamber. "Sir our orders are in." the British-sounding robot states. "Prepare for the biggest battle this world has ever seen." King Mondo replies. His son cheers as his father gives the order for the Cog fighters to launch their attack towards the earth. Thousands of cog fighters leave the Machine base heading towards the Triforia.
On Aquitar the Alien Rangers begin their battle against a squadron of Divatox's old monsters. Divatox watches the battle between the monsters and rangers from a remote location. Rita and Lord Zedd walk up behind her. "We don't like your plan. We have come up with one of our own. So what do you think about that?" Rita said sticking out her tongue. "Rita, Rita, Rita. If you do not like the plan. Then I suggest you take it up with the one who has not spoken his name." Divatox replied.
"Oh this is his plan. Oh it's a lovely plan. How about we got to the Phantom Ranger's Planet and start there?" Lord Zedd asked placing his hand over his wife's mouth.
"Sounds like the smart thing to do." Divatox said. Divatox's monsters had overpowered the Alien Rangers. Lord Zedd and Rita both arrived on the Phantom Ranger's planet. "Putties, Tengas finding the Phantom Ranger and destroy him." Lord Zedd commanded. The Phantom Ranger leapt off a cliff running into the crowd of putties and tengas.
"It's time for a gold rush!" the Gold ranger yelled. The golden ranger became a streak of golden lighting striking through the massive cog army. But even that powerful attack was not strong enough to stop the forces. "I hope the others are doing better than myself." The ranger said taking a fighting position.
The Rebels on KO-35 were holding their own against the piranatrons but they too were soon over powered. "Rebels of KO-35 surrender." A head cog leader ordered. Before an answer could be given, out of the sky the Mega Winger appears. "I can answer that. Never!" Zhane said firing lasers from his zord. The winger manages to destroy half of the machine empire forces. "Zhane thank you. But our planet is fallen to this dark force. We need reinforcements." One of the rebels said over the communication line.
"I'll head back to Earth, I'll bring the other rangers with me." Zhane said. The Mega Winger headed off in the direction it entered into. Zhane dropped his zord back at the Mega Voyager docking bay. "Recharge buddy we have a tough battle a head of us." Zhane said zipping off on his galaxy glider. He came up on fiver velocifighters. Summoning his weapon the silver ranger fired on the fighters but they dodge his laser. The five fighters whizzed by the ranger knocking his board over to its side. Zhane held on to the edge of the board holding him up. If he tried to fire at the fighters again he would fall. But if he didn't they were about to destroy. The fighters turned around. Zhane looked at the fighters as they prepared to attack him.
The Mega ship appeared behind the fighters. "Yeah!" Zhane yelled as the Mega ship destroyed the fighters. He quickly balances himself on the board. "I'm glad to see you guys." He cheered entering the ship. He ran as fast as he could to the main deck of the ship where the other rangers waited for him. "We have to set a course to KO-35 the rebels are under attack." Zhane said.
"It's not just KO-35. They are attacking the whole galaxy." Andros replied.
"They?" Zhane asked.
"Divatox, King Mondo, Rita and Lord Zedd." Ashley answered.
"Headed by our mysterious figure we faced the other day." TJ said.
"Check this out." Carlos said. He summoned the other rangers to his console. He pulled up his reading on the screen. "A thousand velocifighters heading towards Earth." He said somberly. Ashley, Cassie, Rocky exchanged looks at one another. Andros took the main controls. "Hold on Earth we're coming. Engage Hyper Warp Speed!" Andros said. The Mega ship rushed forward.
Justin and TJ entered the Power chamber. "It has begun hasn't it Zordon?" TJ asked.
"I'm afraid so TJ. Lord Zedd and Rita have already taken control of the Vikin galaxy." Zordon answered.
"The Vikin galaxy has no defenses at all." Justin said.
"We have a thousand velocifighters heading towards Earth. Destination Angel Grove." Alpha said.
The citizens of Angel Grove were unaware of what was about to happen. Sure they had grown accustomed to being the center of galaxy domination but they were still unaware of what was about to happen. It seemed like any normal pre-monster attack day in Angel Grove. School had just let out. Kids were playing in the park. Traffic was light that day. People were enjoying themselves at the beach not a care in the world. A humming sound filled the air as the thousand velocifighters made their way into the city. Like bugs to a light the citizens of Angel Grove rushed out of their homes, buildings and cars to see what was going on.
The velocifighters opened fire on the people. Building began to collapse, cars flipped over and people were thrown around. The Earth front has just been invaded. People ran as fast as they could to avoid the fallen debris caused by the exploding buildings. Quantrons and Piranatrons leapt out of the ground to round up the people. Some macho men tried to put up a fight but they found themselves either severly hurt or killed. Everyone complied with the orders the quantrons set out for him or her as they watched their city go up in a big blaze. The one question on their mind where were the power rangers?
Their answer came in two forms. First the Blue Turbo ranger appeared on the ground with Mountain Blaster. The ranger and vehicle duo busted through the parading piranatrons and quantrons. The second form was TJ and Lighting cruiser in the air. In flight mode Light cruiser open fired on the on coming velocifighters. Obliviously this one vehicle could not stop an entire army of fighters. But this was all that could be done at the time.
As the mega ship entered the Earth's atmosphere the last squadron of velocifighters turned to attack the ship. The mega lasers on the ship was only able to destroy two velocifighters. After the two the ship took heavy fire by the remaining velocifighters. "We have to get down to Earth." Andros said.
"TJ and Justin need you down there. I'll take things up here." Zhane said moving over to one of the controls. "Thanks. Let's go." Andros said exiting the control room. The other rangers followed him to the jump tubes. As the rangers shot out of the ship the velocifighters immediately fired at them. The five rangers made it into Angel Grove unharmed. The arrival of more Power Rangers caused a mix reaction of emotions. For the citizens the arrival of the Power Rangers meant that help was here. For the bad guys the arrival of the rangers meant that the battle was far from being won just yet.
"I'm glad you guys could make it." TJ said flying over the Space Rangers.
"What you thought we would let you have all the fun?" Rocky joked. "What's the plan?" he asked.
"Take out as many as you can." TJ said flying away to another section of the city.
"Sounds like that is the game." Andros said splitting off from the rangers. The other rangers broke off into their own sections of the city. Andros flew under an over-pass unaware of a fighter right behind him. The fighter fired on the glider. Andros flipped off the glider as it exploded behind him. He lands on the ground. Quantrons rush at him. The Red Space ranger jumps to his feet with his Spiral Saber in hand. He slashed at a few of the quantrons close to him.
The Blue Space ranger cartwheels into a group of piranatrons. He is joined by the Black ranger both male rangers kick a few of the piranatrons freeing a group of kids being held captive. "Go find a safe place." The Black ranger said punching a piranatron in the gut.
Nine teens entered into the Power Chamber. "We got your call Zordon. We are here to help any way we can." One of teens said. If Alpha could smile this would be the time that he would smile.
Cassie and Ashley both leapt off their galaxy gliders. Both took an attack position against the quantrons. "Get those people out of here." Ashley yelled. Holding back a couple quantrons. Cassie nodded her head. "Follow me." She said waving the people to follow her. Above the two female rangers' heads were more fighters flying over. The two fighters blasted the building causing it the crumbled to the ground.
Andros runs down Main Street, as he runs he slashes the piranatrons and quantrons they come down the street. Behind him two blue laser blast hit. He turns around facing a fighter. TJ in Lighting Cruiser comes in destroying the fighter. The Red Turbo Ranger takes off into the sky again leaving the Red Space ranger running down Main Street.
Justin loads up Mountain Blaster with a few citizens. "Everyone hang on." He said as they peel out of the area. Rocky, Cassie and Carlos join their separate rescue groups together. "How is everyone?" Carlos asked. The two rangers hold up their thumbs.
Andros makes it to the end of the street. Five quantrons hold twenty people captive. "Astro blaster dual mode" Andros said. He rolls on the ground pulling out is two blasters firing on the five henchmen as he leaps off the ground. He lands in front of the crowd who cheer him on. "C'mon let's get you guys out of here." He said leading the way. He stops when he hears Ashley scream in pain. He runs over to the rail. Ten quantrons toss the Yellow Space ranger back and forth like a doll. "Ashley hold on." Andros said leaping off the railing. "Red Battlized Ranger!" Andros screams.
Darkcliptor appears behind the Yellow Ranger striking her in the back. Ashley falls to her knees. "Sorry Red Ranger you girlfriend is about to die." Darkcliptor laughed.
"I don't think so. Battlizer Missiles." Red Ranger yells. Four missiles are launched from the wings of the battlized ranger. Two of the missiles land in the group of quantrons. Blasting them into pieces. The other two missiles land on Darkcliptor knocking him away from the Yellow Ranger. A velocifighter fires on the Red Battlized Ranger's back. Andros's powered up mode vanishes and he lands face first on the hood of an abandon van. "Andros" Ashley screams. She slowly rises to her feet. Summoning all the strength left in her she punches, kicks, and pushes all the piranatrons and quantrons in her way to Andros.
"Are you ok?" she asked sliding him off the hood. He lands on his feet bent over from the blast. "Yeah" he sighs. "We got to get out of here." He mutters.
"No no things are just starting to pick up." Darkcliptor said. He sends a green eye blast to both Red and Yellow Space Rangers. Both rangers fall against the hood of the van. The impact of the rangers explodes the van. The two rangers fall on to the road in their civilian form. Ashley looks at herself no longer in her ranger suit. "Oh no. We have to find the others." She said grabbing Andros's arm. The space teen follows behind his girlfriend on their quest to find the other rangers.
Zhane is unable to defend himself against the fighters with the Mega ship. He summons the Mega Winger from the docking bay. "I hope your ready for a fight." He said. The silver ranger leaps into the cockpit of his zord. Carlos and Cassie watch as the Mega Winger lands in the city. "All right the Mega Winger" Cassie said. The Mega Winger swats at the velocifighters like flies. But more and more fighters out numbered the megazord and thus the fall of the Mega Winger came soon.
The Blue space ranger was tossed through the building by some piranatrons. The Black and Pink space rangers were tossed out of the building as well. When they landed on the ground their powers faded from them. Justin arrives with Mountain Blaster to their location. "Hop on" he said. Cassie and Carlos scrambled into the back of the truck. Rocky fought off two more quantrons before running towards the truck. Darkcliptor leapt out of the ground slashing the ranger upward as he emerges.
Rocky fell back on the ground his blue ranger suit vanished off his body. Justin steps out of the truck. "Pick on blue ranger will ya." He screams. Darkcliptor turns around and blasts the blue ranger power off the twelve-year old's body. Darkcliptor rises in the air, he fires another blast at Mountain Blaster. Cassie and Carlos leapt off the truck as the blast destroys the mighty Mountain Blaster.
"We got to retreat." Rocky said back on his feet. Carlos grabs Justin as he stand still in shock of what had transpired. The four rangers limped as they tried to escape Darkcliptor and the piranatrons.
TJ landed Lighting Cruiser outside Angel Grove. "Thanks buddy you've done all you can." TJ said running off to find the others. The Red Turbo Ranger found the space ranger sitting on a pile of rubble. "You guys alright?" he asked.
"Yeah if you don't count that fact we got our butts kick out there." Carlos answered.
"We've never been up against this many before." Rocky stated.
Andros stands walking over to the Red Turbo Ranger. "Please tell me you have some idea of what to do?" Andros asked. It almost seem as if he was pleading with the Ranger.
Elgar, a character we had not seen in some time shows up with a very large crate. The figure looks at him. "Very good the Dark Cannon is complete and ready to be assembled I assumed." The figure said.
"Yes." Elgar said. He walks away from the figure leaving the crate sitting there.
"You fool put it together." Roared the figure.
"You mean I have to put it together as well. It's bad enough that I spent most of this season being the shadow working on this project. At least let me kick a puppy or something?" Elgar asked. The non-look on the figure's face suggested that Elgar do what he was instructed to do. "Very well" he mumbles.
"DarkCliptor tell the others to finish the job." The figure said.
TJ already in his civilian clothes examines the damage caused by the velocifighters. A mom and her child walks pass him. "Don't worry the Power Rangers will come up with some plan." She said to reassure her son.
TJ runs back to the group. "Ok I think I made you guys wait long enough. I do have some tricks left up my sleeve." TJ said. Zordon awaited the arrival of the seven rangers in the Power Chamber.
