Disclaimer: I do not own the power rangers. I'll give them back when I'm finished. Character's you don't recognise belong to me.

garnetred: Glad you liked the fight. I couldn't just let Emma hide and not show any skills. Here's you update.

Crimson-Ranger: Thanks for your review. Here's your update. Hope you enjoy it.

AN: Now onto the story. Will Emma fall, or will she be saved in time? What will become of her? Find out below, and no skimming the page to find out. :)


Chapter 15

"I've found her." Simone shouted back. She looked over at Emma. "Can't you levitate?"

Emma rolled her eyes. "If I could, I would've done it by now." She looked down at the tretchious plunge below her. She quickly closed her eyes, not wanting to see where she was going to end up.

Simone also looked where Emma was looking and reached down. "Grab my hand."

"I can't."

"Yes you can. Grab hold of it and I'll pull you back up. Simone wasn't about to let Emma drop to her death, even if she was a bad person.

Emma reached up. Her finger's just touched Simone's before she slipped again. Simone had to reach futher. Finally, their hands met in a tight grip. "I can't hold on."

"Drop the shield and let the other's help me." Simone strained. "It's better if we work as a team. I can't morph to pull you up without letting go of you." Simone slipped slightly and Emma screamed.

"Ok, ok. I'm letting it drop now." The shield around them fell and the ranger's ran forward.

Simone felt her body move further over the edge. "I'm slipping." She screamed as she felt herself fall off the edge.

Jake skidded to a halt by the edge of the cliffside and looked over. "Hang on Sis."

"Well I can't exactly do anything else here." Simone said sacastically. She looked up at the one hand holding onto the ledge and then looked down at the second hand that was gripping Emma's.

Emma was using both hands to hold on. She knew she could kill Simone right then and there but it would mean sacrificing herself, which she didn't want to do. She felt herself slipping slightly. "If you guys are going to help, could you hurry it up?"

"Are you seriously trying to annoy them." Simone voice sounded like it was straining. Her hands were hurting and she felt she couldn't hold on any longer. She found herself nearly agreeing with Emma's last question. Simone looked up when she saw a figure try to reach down. For the third time that day, she felt her ring tingling again.

Emma looked up again to see what the rest of them were doing. And that's when she saw it. The water droplet gem of the ring began to glow. It got brighter and bigger every second. It also began to envelope them both. "Look, your ring."

"What about my ri..." Simone was cut off when the light completely covered them.

"What is that?" Tori pointed down at the growing light which got higher and higher towards them. They watched as Simone and Emma disappeared into the strange glow.

As the light rose, it hovered above them before landing on the ground. When it lifted again, all that was left on the ground was one of the girl's who was hanging on for her life on the side of the cliff.

Jake ran forwards and helped her up. "Are you alright?"

"I'll let you know when I'm less freaked out."

"Where's Emma gone?" Shane walked forward.

"She used the crystal for evil. She is being punished for that." A deep male voice said from the light.

Dustinhit Blake slightly. "Dude, did the light just answer the question or am I going completely mad?"

"Normally, I'd say you'd gone mad. But this isn't one of those times." Blake replied.

The light got closer to them and landed on the ground. When it did that, it disappeared and left an armoured person. The armour suited man raised his hand and took off his helmet, revealing what he looked like underneath. "Woah." All four women let out. Their last enemy forgotten.

"Looks like you have a knight in shining armour." Tori smiled.

"Literally." Simone answered.

"My name is Gabriel. I'm a protector of keepers. Whenever you are in need, I am there to serve." He bowed slightly.

Shane laughed. "Is this guy for real?"

"Yes he is." Cam shifted his glasses further up his nose. "I read about him and his kind."

"And you obviously forgot to mention it to me." Simone looked at Cam playfully and then turned to Gabriel, who was still bowing. She stood him up in an upright position. "You don't need to do that."

"So, do you like, live in the ring?" Dustin asked

"Yes."

"Ok, that's kind of freaky. Erm, remind me to hide the ring whenever I'm getting changed." Simone said to her friends. "Wait a minute, if you live inside the ring, does that mean you know alot about me and whoever owned you previously."

"Yes," Gabriel answered simply before expanding his answer. "I know everything about you."

Dustin shook his head. "This is starting to get weird."

"Starting to get weird?" Hunter made a face. "Dude where have you been?"

Everyone laughed as Dustin thought about the question and then realised that Hunter was being sarcastic. Gabriel bowed again. "I'm afraid I must leave you, for now. But I'll be back whenever you need me." He saw Simone shaking her hand, the hand that was holding onto the rock keeping her and Emma alive. He stepped forward. "Like now." Picking up her hand he hovered his above it. It didn't take long for the redness and pain to fade away. With that, the bright glow he came from appeared around him again and transported him back to the ring.

Simone looked at her hand. "I think I need to lie down."

"Nah, lie down later. Tonight we celebrate." Dustin jumped around.

"I'll have to celebrate with you tomorrow. I've got a date tonight." Tori informed them.

Dustin stopped jumping around. "You have a date? With who?"

Tori just grinned at Blake.

"But first, we get back to ninja ops and talk to my dad about Lothor's fate." Cam said. They all nodded and mounted their Tsunami bikes, all having to share since there were five bikes and ten of them.


AN2: Just a few more chapter's to go...I think. It all depends on my muse, who (really paying attention on my part now) looks like Hunter. Why didn't I notice that before? ;) I'm hoping to get the next chappie up tomorrow.
