'White Thunder, Part 5'
"It's Michael. The new guy, he's the White Ranger" Kira says, hanging her head, waiting for the preverbal bomb to drop and explode, like she knows it would.
"WHAT!!!" Conner shouts, jumping up from his seat.
"Man!" Ethan says, unable to believe his ears.
"You sure?" Hayley asked.
"Of course I am. I figured it out when I heard his voice closely" Kira said.
"I cannot believe this!" Conner said, in anger, storming around the room.
"Conner, sit down" Tommy said, but Conner ignored him and continued his rant.
"He played us like fucking fools!" Conner said, and he turned to Kira, "He played you like a fool most of all, Kira"
"He did not, Conner" Kira countered.
"Conner, sit. Down." Tommy said again, this time more forcibly, and the Red Ranger obeyed, "Getting angry at Kira is not helping the situation, so calm down"
"So what do we do, Dr. O?" Ethan asked.
"I don't know, Ethan" Tommy admits.
"We have to help him, Dr. O. He not himself" Kira said.
"Help him, Kira, what are you on?! He's evil, through and through!" Conner said.
"He's not, Conner. His gem is doing something to him, corrupting him, turning him evil" Kira said, trying to persuade Conner.
"How do you know that, Kira, he is just plain evil" Conner said.
"Shut up, Conner!"
"I agree with Conner, Kira, he kidnapped you, 'nice guys' don't do that" Ethan said, emphasising the 'nice guys' with his hands.
"Stop it, Michael is not evil" Kira said.
"Guys, come on" said Tommy.
"How would you know, you sleeping with him, in all!" Conner said. Kira couldn't believe what the Red Ranger was saying. He was angry in all, but he had no right taking it out on her.
"I didn't sleep with him!" Kira says.
"What?! Conner, what the hell are on about?" Ethan asks.
"Ethan, did you not see the sleeping bag?"
"I remember now. What happened between you two last night, Kira?" Ethan asks Kira.
"Nothing, I didn't sleep with him"
"But you shared a bag with him right?" Asks Conner. Kira just nods, her head hanging down low, unable to meet with the Red Ranger's piercing gaze. "So, technically, you slept with him?"
"Conner, leave her alone" Tommy orders.
"Leave her alone" Hayley says, backing up Tommy's orders.
"We shared body heat, Conner, it was cold last night" Kira stated.
"You had the perfect chance to run and you didn't take it" Conner said, holding his arms out in surprise.
"Where could I have gone too, Conner, he would have caught me easily, I didn't have my gem, if you remember!" Kira stated.
"You know dude, she is right there" Ethan said.
"Co-operating, Ethan, is not 'getting cosy' with him in a freaking sleeping bag!" Conner says. Kira is now silently sobbing now, unable to withstand the Red Ranger's verbal assault on her feelings.
"Conner, I'm warning you one last time, leave Kira alone" Tommy warned again.
"Kira?" Conner asks her, and she slowly looks up, tears blurring her vision, "Do you love this guy?" Kira just hangs her head again, and Conner takes this action as her answer, "Fuck!" Conner curses quietly, "She does! She loves him?!" Conner turns to her again, "You love him! You barely know the freakin' guy, Kira" Conner throws his arms in the air, "Great, she's sleeping with the enemy, and even better, she's in love with him! The White fucking Ranger, great, just great!" Kira couldn't stand anymore and with the tears flowing freely now, she ran as quickly as she could up the stairs into the house above the underground lab. Tommy turned to the Red Ranger, and he was not happy.
"Conner, that was completely uncalled for, you had no right to go off at her like that" Tommy said.
"I'm going after her" Hayley says, and went up the stairs after the Yellow Ranger.
"Who Kira decides to fall in love with and to sleep with or not is her business and not yours, you have no right to pass judgement on her for that" Tommy says.
"The guy is evil, Dr. O, we've all fought him, he can't be trusted, and I don't want Kira to be hurt by this nut, who know what will happen next time, he could try to kidnap her and hurt her again. And all she can do is defend him!"
"She defends him, because she cares for him. And further more, if he is evil, then you must pass the same judgement against me, Conner, because so. Was. I. If you remember, from my video diary, as my time as the Green Ranger. If he can't be redeemed, if he can't saved; then by all your accounts, I had no right to a second chance" Tommy said. "My friends never gave up hope on me and they did everything in their power to save me, we as Rangers, as Michael's friends, owe him the same"
"But..."
"No. Buts. Conner, don't say another word. You crossed a line that team-mates should never cross. This team, just like all the other Ranger teams before it were based on one binding principle, Conner. Trust. And today, you have strained that trust, if you ever do anything like this again, I will remove you from active duty. Is. That. Clear!" Conner nods, "Now go find Kira and I want you to apologise and mean it" Tommy ordered, pointing to the stairs, "Now just hope she's still up there and hasn't run away, cause you'll really have done it then. Now. Go!" Conner did as he was told, not willing to anger the Black Ranger anymore, as he was scary when he was angry, the fact that he was completely calm when he was and ran up the stairs to the surface.
"Dr. O?" Ethan said.
"Yes, Ethan"
"Can we help him?" Ethan asked, referring to the White Ranger.
"I don't know, Ethan, but we're gonna try, for his sake and Kira's" Tommy said, "Cause if we can't, then we will have failed"
------------------
"Kira! Kira!" Hayley shouted as she ran up the stairs into the house of the Black Ranger. The stairs from the lab entered into the library/study. Hayley looked into the kitchen and then into the lounge. No Yellow Ranger. Then Hayley looks down the hall and she sees the front door open. 'Oh no!' Hayley thinks and runs to the door and sees Kira sat on the worktable, on the front porch, crying like there's no tomorrow in to her arms. "Oh, Kira" Hayley says, sympathetically and wraps Kira in a hug, and Kira's crying intensifies. After a few minutes, Kira begins to calm down.
"Are you okay?" Hayley asks.
"No. I hate him!" Kira says, venomously, talking obviously about the Red Ranger.
"Conner?"
"Yeah!"
"He had no right to say those things"
"Then why did he?" Kira asked.
"I don't know, but no doubt Tommy is drilling him right now about it" Hayley said.
"Hayley?"
"Yeah"
"Conner is so wrong about him"
"Who? Michael?"
"Yeah, Michael didn't hurt me; he never laid a finger on me. In fact he was kind, funny, and a gentleman the whole time"
"Really? Even when you shared the sleeping bag?" Hayley asked.
"Hayley!"
"Kira, I'm not Conner, you can tell me"
"Okay, yes, especially when we shared the sleeping bag; we didn't have sex, Hayley; we just led together, sharing each others company. When I woke up, he had his arms protectively around me, and for the first time in my life, I felt totally and completely safe, it felt right, you know what I mean?" Hayley nods, "The fact that he was evil at that point wasn't a factor"
"Do you love him, Kira?" Hayley said.
"Yes Hayley, I do and I think he loves me, despite the gems control over him...Michael's in there Hayley, we have to help him"
"Strange. Very strange indeed"
"What?"
"It sounds like this guy's feelings for you are coming through the gems control over him, if they are..."
"What?"
"If they are, then maybe we can help him"
"Help him? Help him how?"
"I...don't know yet, I'll look into it" Hayley said as see turned to the door, "You coming?"
"Yeah" Kira said, and as they entered the house, Kira and Hayley see Conner standing near the doorway.
"Hi, um...Kira, can I talk to you for a second" Conner asked.
"Why? So you can shout at me again?!" Kira said, getting angry.
"Please?"
"Kira, give Conner a chance, okay" Hayley says, "I'll meet you downstairs" and the red-head entered the house.
"Okay, Conner, you've got fifteen seconds, make it good" Kira says, turning away from him and staring outside the front door.
"Kira, I'm sorry. I didn't mean anything I said down there..."
"Yes you did, Conner, or you wouldn't have said them" Kira said, cutting the Red Ranger off, "You are a jerk, most of the time; some other of the time, you're passable as okay; once in a while, you're actually a decent person. But all of the time, Conner, you tell the truth, you don't lie and you have no problem with showing your feelings. Sometimes that can be a good thing, but it can also be a bad thing"
"I'm sorry"
"I know you are, but 'I'm sorry' won't erase what you said. You hurt me, Conner; really hurt me with what you said down there"
"I know, and I proberly know it won't do any good but, I'm sorry, I really am sorry"
"I know"
"So, do you really love him?"
"Conner?!"
"Please, humour me"
"Yes, I think so" Kira said, not willing to admit as much to Conner as she did to Hayley before.
"We'll help him, Kira, somehow, someway, I promise, we'll help him"
"Why the sudden change, Conner? I thought you hated him?"
"I not to fond of him, I'll tell you that, but I also see what's happening to him is doing too you. And you're my friend, Kira, or at least I still hope you are, and I'll help him for you and I'll help him because it's the right thing to do"
"Thank you"
"Friends?" Conner said, holding his hand out.
"Always" Kira said, lightly shaking Conner's hand.
"Shall we?" Conner asked pointing to the inside of the house, Kira nods, and both Rangers walk into the house.
"So, you love him, really?" Conner asks in passing.
"Yes, I do"
"Man, you've got it bad, haven't you? I mean really bad!" Conner laughed
"Yeah, I do" Kira said, laughing.
"Come on, babe, let look for your wayward boyfriend!"
"Did you just call me, 'babe'?" Kira said. Conner laughed harder as they started to walk down the stairs.
------------------
Meanwhile, Cassidy and Devin are standing in an alleyway, waiting for the boy with the promised White Ranger footage"
"Is it six o'clock yet, Devin" Cassidy asks, looking at her watch.
"Right on the nose, Cass" Devin says.
"Where is that little...?" Cassidy said, as the little boy turns up, "Listen, Peewee, we had a deal, and I want what's coming to me!"
"Oh, you do?" the boy asks.
"Yeah, I do"
"Alright!" the boy says, waving his and around eight more boys and girls appear.
"Oh, how cute! You brought all your little friends with you!" says Devin.
"You ready?" the boy asks Cassidy.
"Yeah, give it to me"
"Okay" the boy says, "NOW!" he shouts and the boys and girls pull out squirt guns and begin to shot Cassidy and Devin, and quickly, the two teenagers are soaked to the bone. The kids run away laughing, leaving them all wet.
------------------
In the lab, the Rangers are still searching for a way to help the wayward White Ranger. Conner is walking around the room, feeling like a spare wheel. He looks at his watch.
"Shit!" Conner exclaims.
"What?" Ethan says.
"I have soccer practice in, like, twenty minutes" Conner said, getting up.
"Go, Conner" Tommy said, "In fact it'll be a good idea for all of you to go do something else, you can't stay here, and there really nothing any of you can really do, except wait, and I'll rather have you doing constructive with your time, instead of sitting around here. So, go have some fun, or just relax or something"
"You sure, Dr. O?" Ethan asks.
"Yes. Ethan is some video game that you would like to check out?"
"I never thought I'd hear my self say this, but I have no real desire to go near a computer right now!" Ethan admitted.
"To tell you the truth, I know what Ethan means, Dr. O. I don't feel like playing soccer" Conner said, "Although, Coach Williams will proberly kill me if I miss another practise"
"You sick dude?" Ethan joked.
"If I am, then so are you"
"Guys! Kira, what about you?" Tommy asked the Yellow Ranger.
"I'm not going anywhere. Not until we find a way to help Michael" Kira said.
"Look, I want all three of you to go home, or do something that isn't connected in anyway with this place. We've all been running an adrenaline for the past thirty-six hours, and none of us has got any decent sleep in twice that, so, go on, teacher's orders!" Tommy orders, Ethan reluctantly picked up his bag and slung it over his shoulder and joined Conner by the entrance/exit to the lab.
"Kira, you coming?" Ethan asked.
"No. I said I'm not going anywhere" Kira said.
"Kira?" Tommy said; Kira looked at her teacher, "Go. Home. You're exhausted, and no doubt your parents are a little confused by your absence yesterday"
"Dr. O, can I stay just a little bit longer, please" Kira pleaded.
"Okay, I'll let you stay for one more hour. Then you go home, agreed?"
"Okay"
"You two, go, I'll make sure Kira gets home safely?" Tommy said to the Red and Blue Rangers.
"See you later" Conner said.
"Bye" Ethan said.
"Bye" Kira said in response.
"Bye guys" Tommy said, and both male Rangers went up the stairs "Enjoy yourselves now, because this is only gonna get worse." Meanwhile, Kira was having trouble holding her eyes open, and a few minutes later, Kira fell asleep, in a half-sitting up/half-sprawling posture.
------------------
"She's asleep you know?" Tommy said, walking over to the main console.
"Then let her be, Tommy, for a little while anyway" Hayley said, "She's been through a hell these last couple of days. So have you, for that matter!"
"Yeah, but the insurance on the Jeep will pay for another one, until then, I'll have to drive my Corvette" Tommy said, talking about the Red Corvette he drove during hid time at Angel Grove High, and at college.
"I wasn't talking about what you'd be driving to work, Tommy. I was saying that you and Ethan were nearly killed yesterday. Although, I'm still worried more for Ethan, that was his first life/death situation, I hope he'll be okay"
"He will. He may not admit it, he may not try to show it, but he is a strong kid. He'll be alright"
"Tommy, what are we gonna do with Kira?"
"I don't know. I suggest we leave the computers to run the data on the White Gem overnight, and hopefully it could have formulated some theories..."
"No Tommy, I was suggesting what we'd do about Kira now, she's gonna get a crick in her neck sleeping like that" Hayley said, pointing over to the prone, half-sitting sleeping form of the Yellow Ranger.
"I can't believe she's sleeping now and it's only five o'clock in the afternoon! It has been a tough couple of days for her, eh?"
"Yeah, but she'll pull through, Kira's tough" Hayley said, looking over at the sleeping Yellow Ranger, who has now adopted the more normal sleeping posture, "She's so peaceful at the moment, I think you can take her home later, for now, let her sleep"
"I'll grab a blanket for her" Tommy suggested, moving towards the stairs, intent on going to the airing cupboard to grab a blanket.
------------------
"Conner, what's up?" Coach Williams said to the Red Ranger, "Normally you don't miss, but that's the eighth free kick you've missed today"
"Sorry Coach, but I've had things on my mind" Conner said.
"Anything you want to talk about?"
"I can't, I made a promise"
"It must be bad if it's affecting your game like this, Conner, how about we call it a day?"
"We've got qualifying for the High School League championship, I can't just leave practice, and I'll get this right..." Conner said readying another soccer ball and blasted towards the net...and missed again, "Dam!"
"Conner, you are my star player, and I'm worried when my star player is unable perform at the level I know he is capable of. So Conner, go home, think about what ever is bothering you and come back next week when you'll be a lot clearer"
"Okay, coach" Conner said, walking over to the bench and changed his 'Predator' boots for his trainers and preceded to walk to his car, when he spots a familiar face walking on the opposite side of the road, the White Ranger.
"What is he up to?" Conner says to himself, "I'd better see what the hell he's up to now" and Conner decides to follow the White Ranger discreetly.
------------------
Meanwhile, at Hayley's Cyberspace, Cassidy walks in, soaked to the bone and walks up to the counter, where she meets Krista, the waitress who works at the cybercafé.
"Cass, you alright?" Krista asks.
"Do I look alright? I'm soaking wet! Look at me. It was awful! They attacked me from all sides. They're monsters, all of them!"
"Looks like you're lucky to be alive! Half the city looks like a tornado hit it" Krista said, referring to the monster attack earlier.
"Why? Were there others, but luckily nobody got seriously hurt; worse was a couple of broken bones"
"Someone should call their parents, or they should be grounded"
"If you think that'll help. Do you want a drink or something?"
"Yeah, an extra tall soy latte"
"Coming right up" Krista says, "Um, Cassidy?"
"Yeah"
"You want a towel as well?"
"Please" Cassidy said and Krista went to grab Cassidy's order.
------------------
"Man!" Conner says to himself, "He gone!", 'Duh! He can disappear, you moron!' Conner thought, when a white streak tackled him and knocked him to the ground. Conner kicks the figure of, to find the White Ranger.
"You know, McKnight, you should mind your own business" Michael said threw his helmet.
"DINO THUNDER, POWER UP, ha!" Conner shouts activating his morpher, "No more games, Michael, your coming with me, so we can help you. Wither you like it or not"
"Don't think so, Conner! Tell you what; I'll give you a sporting chance!" Michael says; unsheathing his Drago Saber and tossing it into the air, it lands on the ground nearby, blade first.
"You're going down!" Conner says.
"Oh, you think so!" Michael counters, before kicking in his super speed and launching a flying kick right into the Red Rangers chest, knocking him back.
"That's it!" Conner tells the White Ranger, and pulls out his Thundermax Saber and converts from blaster mode to blade mode.
"Can't fight me without a weapon, huh?"
"All right" Conner says, and tosses his saber aside, "Why do we have to fight at all? We're both Rangers"
"You're good. I'm evil. It's a simple concept, when you think about it" Michael says, before he runs up and punches Conner backwards.
------------------
Meanwhile, inside Mesogog's island laboratory.
"Elsa, how are we proceeding?" Mesogog asks the cyborg women.
"We are on schedule, sir. Angor has been upgraded. If our plan is successful, he will occupy the other Rangers" Elsa said.
"Excellent. Zeltrax?"
"Yes, my lord"
"I want to have a chat with this White Ranger"
"I will make it so" Zeltrax said, preparing to carry out his orders.
------------------
"Ah, man, not good" Hayley says, looking at the screen, as the alarms went off, Kira shot up awake, startled to hell.
"Hayley?" Kira said, "What's...What's going on?"
"Angor's back, Kira, and he's super-sized. TOMMY!" Hayley shouted, and a minute later the Black Ranger came down the stairs.
"Sorry Hayley, I was marking some work, had the music up to loud, I guess. What have we got?" Tommy said, looking the screen, "Oh! Never mind" Kira joined them at the console, "Nice to see you're up, Sleep well?"
"Sorry"
"Don't worry, you looked like you needed it" Tommy said as the alarms went off again.
"What now?!" Kira asked. Hayley brought up on the computer screen. It was Conner fighting the White Ranger, rolling away from a tornado kick.
"Okay. Hayley, contact Ethan and have him meet Conner at the quarry" Tommy ordered.
"Right" Hayley said.
"Kira, looks like we're gonna have to deal with this guy ourselves" Tommy said, pointing to the screen with Angor on it.
"Okay" Kira said.
"Let's do it!" Tommy said, summoning his Dino Morpher and taking his key out of his pocket. Kira summoned her morpher.
"DINO THUNDER, POWER UP, ha!" Kira shouted, morphing into the Yellow Ranger.
"DINO THUNDER, POWER UP!" Tommy shouted, morphing into the Black Ranger.
------------------
Mesogog, watching the battles unfold on his screens, and seeing the Blue Ranger riding his Raptor Cycle towards the quarry.
"Nothing must interfere with my plan, Elsa, stop him" Mesogog ordered.
"Yes, my lord" Elsa said, grabbing a squad of Tyrannodrones.
------------------
Michael and Conner are still fighting in the quarry. Michael grabs Conner's arm, blocking a punch attempt, and judo throws the Red Ranger to the ground. Michael then sees Conner's Thundermax Saber on the ground, and picks it up.
"Look what I've found!" Michael says, holding the saber at the Red Ranger as he gets up of the dirt.
"You're out of your mind!" Conner exclaims.
"Now, now, be nice! Especially since I have the sword" Michael says, and then lunges at Conner, striking him repeatedly in the chest. Conner manages to block one swing, "This is getting old. Let's finish this once and for all!" Michael says, kneeing Conner in the stomach, and then striking him some more with his own saber. "Now, this is a surprise!" Michael says, managing to change the saber back into blaster mode and fires it several times in Conner's direction, several blasts hitting him square in the chest.
------------------
Ethan continues to ride towards Conner's general location, when an invisi-portal opens up and a Tyrannodrone falls out and lands square on the back.
"What?" Ethan says, as he turns around to see a Tyrannodrone on the back of his bike, "Hey, get off!" and Ethan tries to shake the 'freeloader' off his bike.
------------------
A black armoured ATV and a yellow cycle pull up into the downtown district of the city, only to find Angor having his way.
"I'll call the zords, you lead them in, okay, and they'll follow you in the Ptera Zord" Tommy said.
"Okay. Ptera Zord, Online!" Kira said, pressing a button on her morpher.
"Auxiliary Zords, Online!" Tommy said, the Brachio face plate changing first into the one for the Cephala Zord. Tommy turns his key, "Cephala Zord!" Then the face plate changes into the Dimetro Zord, and Tommy turns his key again, "Dimetro Zord!" Then the face plate changes again, this time into the Parasaur Zord, "Parasaur Zord!" and the Ptera Zord, followed by the three auxiliary zords exited the Brachio Zord. Kira then jumped into the cockpit of her zord.
"Ptera Zord, Power Up!" Kira said, placing her hands over the neuro-sphere. Then she led the four dino zords against Angor. Angor fired energy beams at the four zords, but they just kept charging. The Cephala Zord punches the monster, the Dimetro Zord then hits it with a bite, followed by the Parasaur Zord, which attacks with its tail. Finally, Kira fires laser from her zord right at Angor, sending him flying.
------------------
Back in the quarry, Michael points the commandeered blaster at its owner, and Conner tries valiantly to get up.
"Don't even bother, Conner, it's over!" Michael threatened.
Groaning from the pain and in anger, "It is SO not over!" Conner tells the White Ranger, and he extends his arm out, the white pattern of diamonds all over his armor begin to glow in a golden light and his visor glows in a red light, and moves, appearing to roar, a huge monstrous roar fills the quarry. When the glowing subsides, the diamonds have become solid scales, "My turn!" Conner shouts and he charges forwards.
"Stay back!" Michael warns, and he fires the blaster, but the blasts are absorbed by Conner, and the Red Ranger continued charging, and slashing the White Ranger with the armor plates on his arms repeatedly and Michael falls down hard.
"Whoa! Looks like I've tapped into a whole new level of power!" Conner says excitedly.
------------------
"Get off me!" Ethan says elbowing the Tyrannodrone in the head, forcing it off his bike. Ethan is forced to stop his cycle when he is confronted by a swarm of Tyrannodrones. Ethan decides to throttle his bike and rides straight at them, and a drone tries to get on the back again, "I said no free rides!" and Ethan removes his blaster from it's holster, and fires at the hitch hiker, sending to the side of the road. Ethan then pulls the trigger on his cycle, sending large blue laser blasts towards the pack.
------------------
"You beat me at my own game. Congratulations. Looks like you won't have to worry about the White Ranger anymore!" and Michael faints, dropping Conner's Thundermax blaster.
"Oh, crap!" Conner says, and he races up to the unconscious form of the White Ranger, "Are you alright?" Michael suddenly grabs the blaster and fires, point blank range, into the Red Rangers chest, sending him flying back several feet. Conner hits the ground and his morph fails.
"Man, I can't believe I fell for that!" Conner says, holding his chest.
"And here's the price for your stupidity!" Michael says, firing the blaster, which clips Conner in the shoulder, and he walks slowly towards the Red Ranger and picks up his Drago Saber on the way, "You put up a pretty good fight, but now it's over! I'll tell Kira you put up a valiant fight, you know put you in a good light!" he says, pointing his saber right at Conner's heart.
"And do you think she'll still love you if you kill me, Mike?" Conner said. This gets a reaction out of the White Ranger, and Conner is ready to capitalise on it when a crackle fills the air and an invisi-portal opens, Mesogog and Zeltrax drop in.
"Don't let me interrupt" Mesogog says.
"Who are you?" Michael asks, his saber still pointed at Conner's chest.
"I cannot believe you two haven't met. You have so much in common!" Conner says, sarcastically.
"Silence!" Zeltrax shouts and fires a blast from his sword, which hits behind the two Rangers, a warning shot.
"Do not speak unless spoken to!" Mesogog tells Conner, turning to the White Ranger, "I believe we have some business to discuss"
"I'm sorry, Messy-gog, is it?" Michael jokes.
"Meso-gog!" the mutant scientist says, not enjoying the mocking.
"Right, sorry. I'll have to check my diary, maybe we can reschedule. You see I'm rather busy"
"I'll make you a deal, Ranger. I'll help you defeat the rest of the Power Rangers, and you can be one of my loyal subjects when I rule the planet" Mesogog proposes.
"I'll think I'll pass" Michael says, stepping away from the Red Ranger, "Drago Zord, Online!" he shouts, "I'm outta here!" and he disappears.
Zeltrax, seeing Conner still on the ground, "Master, should I finish the Red Ranger off!"
"No, it appears that our new friend has a fascination with the red one. I'll let him live in the hopes that he will lead us to him again." And Mesogog and Zeltrax teleport out through an invisi-portal.
Just then, Ethan rides up on his Raptor Cycle, gets off and runs to the Red Ranger.
"Conner?!" Ethan shouts, taking his helmet off and knelling by Conner, "Ah, man, you okay?!" he asks, referring to the blaster wound on Conner's left shoulder.
"Yeah, he just clipped me, flesh wound; I think" Conner said, "Ethan?"
"Yeah dude?"
"Just so you know, Ethan, not all the good guys wear white!" Conner tells the Blue Ranger.
"Ethan? Conner?" Hayley says from Ethan's morpher.
"Go ahead, Hayley" Ethan says.
"You guys had better get down town, Kira and Tommy need you"
"We're already there, Hayley" Ethan said, closing the channel, turning to the Red Ranger, "You okay to do this?"
"I'm fine, let's go" Conner said, readying his morpher, "DINO THUNDER, POWER UP, ha!" Conner shouts and morphs into the Red Ranger once again.
"Come on, get on" Ethan says, strapping his helmet on and climbing on the cycle. Conner got on behind.
"Let's go" Conner said. And both Rangers rode towards the city centre.
------------------
"The White one is tiresome" Mesogog said, observing the White Ranger assembling the Dino Stegazord. "He's back. Send Angor. Stop him now!" Mesogog orders Elsa. Elsa teleports the monster to the location of the Dino Stegazord.
------------------
"Hey, where did he go?" Kira says, from the cockpit of her zord.
"Something's not right" Tommy says in the cockpit of his zord.
"Oh no! The Dino Stegazord!" Kira says, seeing the White Rangers Megazord in the distance.
------------------
"Angor, capture him!" Mesogog tells Angor through telepathy.
"My pleasure!" Angor answers, and throws a chain around the Dino Stegazord.
Ethan and Conner enter the area and get off the Blue Raptor Cycle.
"Ah, man!" Conner said.
"Not good!" Ethan agreed.
"I've got this all wrapped up!" Angor says.
"You think?!" Michael says, and then the Dino Stegazord begins to glow, "Not!" and the chains melt, freeing the Megazord.
------------------
"This cannot be happening!" Mesogog angrily says, "Find out whom this insect is, I want everything on him" he orders.

"Dino Stegazord, Stega Dino Mode!" Michael shouts, and the tail round the back begun to swing. "Stego Tail Attack" and the Dino Stegazord jumps into the air and smashes the monster in the head. "Dino Stegalaser!" he shouts, and a huge blue laser is fired from the Megazord at the ground first and then begins to move up and cuts Angor in half.
"That's gotta hurt!" Ethan says.
"Je-sus!" Conner says.
------------------
Mesogog watched the whole one-sided battle unfold on the monitor and zeros in on the Dino Stegazord.
The Rangers are watching the Dino Stegazord as well.
Michael flips the load speaker control on the neuro-sphere.
"Power Rangers! Mesogog! I don't work for anyone, anyone who gets in my way, I will destroy!" he shouts, angrily and with more venom then ever before and then the Dino Stegazord disappears.
"Guys, we have a serious problem. I think Mesogog has just pushed Michael over the edge, we may have lost our chance to save him" Tommy says.
"Oh-no!" Kira says to herself.
------------------
Back in the lab, the Ranger sit, pondering what to do next with the White Ranger.
"I don't get it, first Michael's fighting us, then the next thing, he blows up Mesogog's freak" Ethan says, "He could seriously go on an anger management course!"
"Dr. O, can we help him now? What happened?" Conner asked.
"I think the meeting with Mesogog and his evil, with Mesogog trying to capture him, and the corruption of his Dino Gem, that combination allowed the White Ranger personality to assume control" Tommy explained.
"But can we help him?" Conner asked again.
"I don't think we can, Conner, not unless he wants to be helped" Tommy said, and Kira begun to sob to herself again, Tommy takes immediate notice of this, "Kira?" the Yellow Ranger looks up, "We won't give up, I won't give up, until I've found a way to free him of the evil in the gem, promise you"
"Dr. O, please don't make promises you can't keep" Kira says, quietly, and then gets up and walks up the stairs.
"That didn't go well!" Tommy said aloud.
"Dr. O?" Ethan asked.
"Yes, Ethan"
"What was with the whole 'Super Dino Power' thing?"
"That means you guys are beginning to access your full potential"
"I like the sound of that" Ethan says.
"Um, guys, I'm going to the warehouse to pick up mine and Kira's Dino Scanners. With all this excitement over the past few days, I kinda forgot them" Conner says.
"No, you guys go home, get some rest. I'll pick them up" Tommy orders.
"Thanks, Dr. O" Conner said, and then he and Ethan walked up the stairs to collect Kira and go home.
"Here you go Tommy" Hayley says.
"Thanks. Hayley, how could I have failed?" Tommy asked.
"What do you mean?"
"Well, when Jason and the others were at about to quit, when Rita destroyed the original dino zords after me, Goldar and Scorpina beat them, somehow, someway, they managed to pull something out of the woodwork and save me. How come I can't pull the same trick with Michael?"
"It's not over yet, Tommy, don't forget that and never give up, the moment you give up, is the moment 'they' win! We will find a way to free Michael, and then Mesogog will have five Rangers to deal with then!" Hayley says, with confidence.
"Thanks, I needed that"
"No problem. Now go"
"Yes, sir!" Tommy said, jokingly.
------------------
In the warehouse where Kira was kidnapped, Tommy entered and begins his search for the two missing Dino Scanners. He finds one device hanging on a hook. He reaches up for it and then something knocks him down at high speed. Tommy looks up to see the White Ranger.
"Fight or die, Black Ranger!" White Ranger threatens.
"Michael don't do this" Tommy says, getting up, dumping the backpack on the ground.
"No more talk, Black Ranger, time to be destroyed!" and the White Ranger fires a laser arrow at Tommy, but the Black Ranger jumps out of the way.
"DINO THUNDER, POWER UP!" Tommy shouts, jamming his key in and turning it, morphing into his Black Ranger armor. Tommy unhooks his Brachio Staff and the two Rangers begin to go at it.
Michael manages to gain an upper hand and slashes Tommy across the chest, then kicking him in the stomach.
"Time to say good bye, Black Ranger!" White Ranger says, holding his saber out. Tommy clicks the red button on his morpher. Michael then see the Dino Scanner on the hook and removes it and gets an idea.
"Hayley!" Tommy shouts.
"Yeah" Hayley responds.
"I need help..." Tommy said as Michael pointed the scanner at him and placed his Drago Saber's blade in the way, and the beam hit Tommy head on and begun to encasing him in an amber prison.
"Yes, you do!" White Ranger said, before dropping the scanner and he disappeared.
"Tommy, come in!" Hayley said, franticly, "Tommy, do you hear me? Tommy!" Hayley continued to say, as she became more frantic.
