Author's Note: -
Hi, I'm sorry for the delay in posting this episode, but my job has been so demanding lately.
I just want to say before you read this episode of Dino Thunder AU, that this version of 'Leader of the Whack' will be vastly different from the original. While not knocking the original episode, as the acting by all the actors was brilliant, especially Emma Lahana's portrayal of the 'Valley Girl' Kira was excellent; as it appeared she had great fun playing Kira in a different way. I felt it wouldn't fit into well with my version of the storyline. So in effect the alternate personality's plotline has been dropped in favour of a Kira/Michael storyline, with a Conner/Ethan sub-plot trying to defend the city alone.
So I hope you enjoy reading and hope you continue to review.
Thanks

'Leader of the Whack'
Michael Scott, the White Ranger. He just made the hardest, and strangely, also the easiest decision of his life. He is leaving Reefside, to protect the people, and Kira, from his alter ego, the evil White Ranger. He is walking through the woods, the quickest way to the freeway.
"Okay, according to the map and the GPS, the freeway is only a few more hours walking through here" Michael says to himself, "I need to get further way" then Michael begins to think about the reasons he's leaving.
------------------
Flashback
"But I had another reason for asking you here" Michael said, walking towards the Yellow Ranger.
"Yeah?"
"Yeah, I want to tell you something, something I've wanted to tell you for a while now" Michael says, "They say actions speak louder then words, so..." and Michael slowly moved his hand to lightly cup Kira's face and brought his mouth down to kiss her lightly on the lips. After a few minutes, Kira begins to ease into the kiss and her arms go around his neck. So Michael moves his hands down to Kira sides. 'I need to go, before this gets any harder" Michael thinks, and he breaks the kiss off. "...Kira, I love you. I just wanted to say it. I needed to say it before I go"
Michael lets go of the Yellow Ranger, walks to his bag, throws it over his shoulder and walks away.
"Michael...Michael please come back!" He can hear Kira say, as he walks away, he can also hear her crying, "I love you, please come back. I love you. I love you" He can hear her repeat those words until her voice is a mere whisper. It's killing him to be walking away from her like this, but he knows he needs to do this.
------------------
'I shouldn't left like that. I madeher cry' Michael thought to himself, "You know why you're leaving"
------------------
Flashback
"Michael!" Kira shouts behind the White Ranger, "Get away from them, now!"
"Make me!"
"Fine! Super Dino Mode!" Kira shouts and the white diamonds on her armor glow and change into hard armoured scales. She jumps and grabs the White Ranger and throws him to the ground.
"You'll pay for that. I'm taking you down!" he says, "White Drago Saber, Laser Arrow, Single Shot!" and a yellow energy arrow hits Kira right in the chest. The Blue and Red Ranger fire their Thundermax Sabers at the White Ranger, but he blocks the blasts with his saber and sends the blue and red energy pulses back to their sources.
"Michael, that's enough!" he could hear Kira shout.
"Michael is gone forever, Yellow Ranger!" he could hear himself say. 'No, Kira, I'm right here! Help me!" Michael shouts, but his words unable to get through the White Rangers control.
"I like you, Michael, but you leave me no choice, I am going to stop you! Once and for all!" and she charges the White Ranger, but he blocks her attacks and grabs her arms.
"You're a little out of your league, don't you think?!" he says before pushing her back, and charging the blade up and slashing Kira across the chest, causing her to fly back in a shower and explosion of sparks. 'KIRA! NO!'
Kira tries to get up, only to get a laser arrow in the chest, making her fly back further, and her morph fails. "See my point!" he could hear himself say, his voice a twisted, psychotic version of his own, and fires another arrow towards the defenceless Yellow Ranger, hitting her in the arm, causing her arm to explode in an effect of sparks and blood. Kira screams in pain, instinctively grabbing her arm, as the arrow continues to fly behind her and explodes when it hits a beam behind her. White Ranger see the Red and Blue Rangers running towards him, Thundermax Saber drawn into Blade modes, but White Ranger blocks their attacks and slashes and kicks them into some crates.
"Pathetic!" White Ranger says, and turns towards the Yellow Ranger. "I never did like the color yellow!"
"Well, Yellow Ranger, time to say goodbye!" He says, bringing his saber up, readying the killing strike. 'I've got to stop this' Michael thinks, gathering all his strength, hoping to break the White Rangers control just enough to allow Kira to escape.
"Kira?!!!" He can hear himself say, himself and not White Ranger, "Kira...help...me..."
"Mike...Michael?" Kira asked.
"Help. Me! It won't...won't take long for him to return. Go. Now!" he says, "RUN. GO. NOW!!" he shouts, grabbing his head in pain with his left hand, "He's returning..."
Kira takes notice and begins to get up. 'Run, get away from me' Michael says to himself, then he feels the White Ranger take control again.
"That's better" White Ranger says, his voice changing again, he sees Kira getting up, "Where do you think you're going?! Prepare to be destroyed, Yellow Ranger!" Charging the blades tip up again, "White Drago Saber, Laser Arrow, Single Shot" and another arrow flew out, striking the Yellow Ranger in the leg. Kira screamed again when the arrow hit her, and forgetting the arm, she grabbed her leg.
"Get away from her, you sadistic sonofabitch!" Conner shouted. 'Yes, Conner, stop me!' Michael attempted to shout.
"Yeah, you bastard, leave her alone!" Ethan added, "Ready!"
"Let's do it!" Conner said.
"SUPER DINO MODE!" The Red and Blue Rangers shouted. The white diamonds turned into scales. Then the two male Rangers attacked the White Rangers, slashing him with the scales, sending him to the ground.
"I'll be back, Rangers, Count on it!" White Ranger shouted, before activating his dino ability and camouflaged.
------------------
'If it wasn't for Ethan and Conner kicking my butt with their Dino Armor, I would have killed Kira' Michael thought, "I'd better get going" Michael said, and started walking again. Just then a meteor hits the atmosphere and it burns, creating a giant fireball. Looking up, Michael saw the fireball fly over him. "What the hell?!" Then the meteor hit the ground a few miles from him, "I'd better go check that out. Man, I hope I don't regret this!" Michael says as he adjusts his backpack on his shoulders and begins to walk towards ground zero.
------------------
Meanwhile, in the Rangers underground lab. Conner is practicing keep-up soccer with a small red-and-white ball, Ethan is playing on a small portable television connected to an Xbox console, playing Halo: Combat Evolved. Kira is strumming her guitar, trying to practice, but her mind is not on her music. Hayley is still trying to free Tommy from his amber prison. Then the computer beeps. Ethan pauses his game, and instantly jumps to the main computer console, Hayley joining him in the other chair.
"What going on?" Conner asks, standing behind Ethan, and being joined by Kira.
"I'm picking up a strange reading in the forest" Hayley said.
"We'll check it out" Conner said, gesturing for this fellow Rangers to join him, and they walk up the stairs.
------------------
"My lord, if my calculations are correct, Rojobot will be the most aggressive creature we have ever created" Zeltrax tells his master.
"We'll see about that" Mesogog says. Elsa activates the Geno Randomizer and a monster with large yellow eyes and two whip-like arms.
"I am Rojobot, and will destroy the Rangers" Rojobot said, in a threatening manner.
"Excellent work, Zeltrax" Mesogog said. Then an alarm sounds.
"My lord, I'm picking up heat signatures and radiation from the forest" Elsa says.
"What kind of radiation?" Mesogog asks.
"Like nothing on record"
"Send that creature to retrieve it...he should be able to handle that" Mesogog ordered.
------------------
After walking for around forty minutes, Michael managed to reach ground zero of the meteor impact site. As Michael got close, the meteor begun to glow purple, and Michael's Dino Brace glowed as well.
"Michael?" a voice behind him grabs the White Ranger's attention. Michael turned around to find Kira, Conner and Ethan walking up to him.
"Kira?" Michael said, stunned to see her so soon, something he wasn't planning to. Michael was waiting for the strange sensations in the pit of his stomach, waiting for the White Ranger to try and gain control again and tryto hurt her. Michael was somewhat enjoying a minor respite to that, but he knew that White Ranger could and would take control again. The feeling he was waiting for never came, "What...what are you guys doing here?" he asked.
"I might ask you the same thing. Haven't seen you around for a while" Conner says.
"Yeah, we really need to catch up" Ethan adds.
"Not right now, guys" Michael said, holding his hand up, "I suppose you're here to check this thing out?"
"Yeah, how'd you guess?" Ethan said, "You?"
"I saw it fly over head, I think it was a meteor or asteroid" Michael said.
"Let's check it out" Conner replies.
"I don't think I'm gonna let you do that" Rojobot says, appearing out of an invisi-portal with some Tyrannodrones.
"Whose side are you on today, Mike?" Conner asks, standing next to the White Ranger.
"Not now, Conner, do you want my help, or what?" Michael said, and then the Tyrannodrones attacked, and the four Rangers fought against Mesogog's genetic troops. Conner blocked the attacks from three drones, and kicked them back, before taking on another two. Ethan used his armoured skin to knock Tyrannodrones back and as his skin caused slight sparks as it connected with the exoskeleton of the Tyrannodrones. Kira blocked an attack, and swept the drone of its feet, then she spun on her foot with her arms out straight, avoiding another attack, and shot her palm into the 'chin', if you could call it that of a drone, sending it into a tree. Michael kicked another drone away and using the same leg, swung it behind him, catching another in the stomach. A Tyrannodrone kicked out at the White Ranger, Michael blocked it with a kick of his own, and deflected the kick away, before spinning away and catching another drone with a kick to the head, before turning his attention back to the drone he blocked with the kick and kicked it straight in the head, the force of the kick sending it back. Kira's brace beeped, signalling she was being contacted.
"Kira?" Hayley's voice came over.
"Yeah, Hayley?" Kira asked.
"That rock you found, it's generating a lot of power, the crystal composition of it is similar to that of your Dino Gems, you need to stop that monster from getting it" Hayley explained.
"You think it could help Dr. O?"
"Maybe, I think so" Hayley said.
"Enough!" the monster shouted, getting the Rangers attention, "Come on Humans, put 'em up!"
"You thinkin' what I'm thinkin'?" Ethan asks.
"Way ahead of you" Conner responded, "Ready?"
"Ready!" Ethan and Kira said.
"DINO THUNDER, POWER UP, ha!" the three Rangers shouted and they morphed. Rojobot brought in more Tyrannodrones from a nearby invisi-portal, and they attacked. The Rangers with an unmorphed Michael fought the new arrivals. Conner decided to take on Rojobot directly and they fought.
While Rojobot and the Tyrannodrones kept the Rangers busy, Elsa and Zeltrax teleported in. Michael noticed them teleport in.
"Guys, we've got company!" he shouted, gaining Ethan's attention.
"Ah, man!" Ethan said, kicking a drone away, "Why don't you morph?"
"You know I can't! They're after the meteor, I'll stop them"
"Michael..." Kira said, slashing a Tyrannodrone in the chest with her Thundermax Saber in blade mode, "...you can't take them alone" but Michael ignores her and attacks Zeltrax and Elsa alone. Zeltrax moves to intercept, and tries to take the White Ranger's head off, but Michael ducks and kicks the cyborg in the gut. As Zeltrax reels from his hit, Elsa brings her sword down, but Michael dodges the attack and kicks her sword away. Elsa swings her sword again and Michael blocks the attack, holding her sword with his hands, then Zeltrax swings his towards them both and Michael uses Elsa's sword to block Zeltrax's and then he kicks the Cyborg away again, before kneeing Elsa in the stomach.
Zeltrax runs towards the White Ranger, slashing upwards, which Michael avoids easily, and kicks his assailant in the head, sending him reeling, but he doesn't see Elsa launch an energy attack towards him, which impacts the ground in front of him, exploding in a fireball, Michael falls to the ground. Elsa walks towards the fallen White Ranger, and readies her sword to run him through.
------------------
Kira kicks another Tyrannodrone away, before slashing another couple with her Thundermax Blade. Looking around for the White Ranger, she sees the explosion which sends him to the ground. Elsa begins to walk ever closer to Michael's position on the ground, with Zeltrax following close behind, and her raising her sword, ready to push her molecular-sharpened blade through Michael's heart.
"No!" Kira says to her self, and begins to run towards the person she loves, in the attempt to save him.
------------------
"Prepare to perish, White Ranger!" Elsa says; her sword prepared to turn Michael into a human equivalent of a kebab. Elsa thrusts her sword towards his chest, when a blade deflected the attack from out of nowhere, sending upwards and away from the White Ranger's chest. Elsa sees the Yellow Ranger, Thundermax Blade ready to counter-attack.
"Stay away from him, you bitch!" Kira warns.
"Such language, Kira!" Elsa jokes.
"Stand aside, Yellow Ranger, let us destroy the White Ranger, and we promise we won't hurt you. Too much!" Zeltrax said, standing beside Elsa.
"Not a chance!" Kira said, standing in front of Michael, who was still trying to get his bearings. Zeltrax launched himself at the Yellow Ranger, and the attack took her of guard, and Zeltrax managed to get several hits in, and the force of one blow sent Kira back towards the unmorphed White Ranger, where she unmorphed also. Elsa scowled and the bent down to pick up the meteor fragment, Zeltrax joined her and both teleported threw an invisi-portal.
"No!" Michael shouted, picking himself up off the dirt, "I've got to get that rock!" he said, placing his hand out into the aperture of the portal and disappeared into it, intent on getting the one thing that could free him and Dr. Oliver from their own prisons.
"Michael!" Kira shouts as the White Ranger disappears into the green vortex, Kira walks to the location of it and copying Michael's actions, accessing the portal, following.
------------------
Conner kicks Rojobot back, and then hitting him with his Tyranno Staff, while Ethan clobbers several Tyrannodrones with his Tricera Shield.
"I'll be back for round two, Rangers!" Rojobot says, picking himself off the ground, "Retreat!" and the monster and surviving Tyrannodrones disappear into an invisi-portal.
"Okay, power down" Conner says, and both him and Ethan power down, their Ranger armor disappearing.
"Um, Conner, Where's Kira?" Ethan asks. Conner looks around, not finding Kira or her allusive love interest, Conner put two and two together, and came out with five.
"Ah! Not again!" Conner shouts, "I can't believe we trusted him!" Conner says, referring to the White Ranger, thinking the obvious, that he has kidnapped Kira again. He brings his Dino Morpher to his mouth, "Hayley?"
"Yes Conner" The computer genius says from the other end.
"Kira and Michael have gone missing, again! I think he has her"
"Okay, Conner, calm down. I detected several invisi-portal activations in your vicinity in the past few minutes, and my scanners didn't show the activation of the White Ranger powers"
"What's that got to do with anything, Hayley?" Conner asks.
"That Michael is in control of his body for the moment, not White Ranger" Hayley explained.
"Hayley, he's tricked us before"
"Yes, but right now we've got to worry about that meteor fragment. So get back to lab, and we'll begin a search for it and Kira and Michael" Hayley ordered.
"Okay. We're on our way"
------------------
Michael landed with a thud in a forest area, landing in some thick foliage.
"Ah, man. Watch the last step!" Michael said sarcastically, picking himself up of the ground and dusting himself off. "Welcome to Juri-maniacs Park!" he said, recognising Mesogog's lab in the distance. Then he heard a crash behind him and turned to find the Yellow Ranger lying in the same spot he'd occupied seconds before.
"Kira?!" Michael said, obviously not impressed with her idea of following him, "What the hell are you doing?" he asked, grabbing her hand, pulling her up.
"Helping you!" Kira said, like it was the most obvious thing in the world.
"Well, I don't need your help, so go back to your friends before the invisi-portal closes" Michael says, pointing to where they both exited from.
"No, you need my help, your never gonna get that meteor fragment back by yourself"
"I'll be fine!" Michael snapped, turning away from her, then facing her again, "What you've done is really dumb, Kira, do you know where we are?"
"No" Kira said, looking around, seeing a forest with tree's she doesn't recognise.
"Mesogog's Fortress Island!" Michael snapped, "And now the only way off this death-trap is inside that building" pointing to the only structure on the island, "Also I'm not exactly a good luck charm either, If White Ranger takes control, well you can guess what he'll love doing to you!"
"He'll try to kill me" Kira stated, it being a matter of fact.
"And make no doubt, Kira, he'll succeed! Hell, he might try to have some fun with you first before killing you! You got lucky last time, and you know it! If Conner and Ethan didn't stop me, 'I' would have killed you" Michael said, emphasising the 'I' by pointing to himself.
"Okay. I'll admit that what I did was not a good idea..." Kira said, before getting cut off by the White Ranger.
"Not a good idea, Kira! This has got to be the worse idea in the whole grand scheme of bad ideas, ever! If they had awards for bad ideas, this would get the hall of fame induction!" Michael said sarcastically.
"Why are you being so horrible?" Kira said, quietly.
"Jeez, Kira! I'm not trying to be nasty, or horrible. I'm trying to protect you"
"From what?"
"From me!" Michael shouts, and then he calms down "I love you, Kira. I don't want to hurt you, but I can't control him"
"I love you too, I trust you"
"How can you trust me, when I don't even trust me?"
"Does that even need an answer?" Kira asks, moving closer, and leaning up to kiss Michael on the lips, taking the lead this time round. Michael lightly grabs Kira's hips with his hands and then moves them to the small of her back. Kira wraps her arms around his neck and both Rangers begin to deepen the kiss, fore filling their desire for one another, something they've both wanted since admitting their feeling for each other a few days before. They continued to kiss until the need for air overrode the need for physical contact, and they broke the kiss, Kira whimpered a little, as the contact was broken, both of them were breathing hard and Kira was feeling more than a little light-headed.
"You have no idea how long I wanted to do that!" Michael said, his forehead pressing lightly against the Yellow Rangers own forehead, both of them seemingly helping to keep the other up.
"I think I can take a guess," Kira said, "About as long I did, right?"
"Yeah!" Michael said, unhooking his arms from around Kira's waist and unhooking Kira's arms from around his neck, "Kira, as much as I want to stay around and continue this with you. I really do but we've got get into Mesogog's fortress and get that meteor back, before bone-head uses it for, whatever?!"
"Yeah, let's go"
"Follow me"
"You know your way around here?" Kira asked.
"What did you think I did when I wasn't fighting you guys, or hatching a giant white Easter egg?" Michael answered, "Come on" and both Rangers begun to walk through the underbrush towards the towering structure that was Mesogog's Castle Fortress.
------------------
Back in the Underground lab, Conner and Ethan were with Hayley and a fossilised Dr. Oliver. Hayley was analysing her scans of the meteor fragment.
"So, Hayley what have we got?" Conner asked.
"Well, that meteor fragment has an unusual crystalline composition; it is similar to that of your Dino Gems, meaning it is capable of generating large amount of power. I might be able to use that power to free Tommy" Hayley explained.
"Really?" Conner said.
"Cool! It's about time we've got some good news" Ethan added.
"Theoretically, it could also free Michael from the control of his evil gem" Hayley says, "Unfortunately; Mesogog most likely has it now"
"Man!" Conner says.
"What are we gonna do?"
"I'm searching for an invisi-portal into Mesogog's lab, so you guys can get it"
"Hey, do you think that's whyMichael and Kira disappeared?" Ethan asked, "To go get it?"
"Maybe..." Hayley says when the alarms go off, she turns to the computer; see Rojobot attacking civilians, "Great! Mesogog's latest freak is going medieval on some civilians. Go, now"
"Ready!" Conner asks.
"You know it!" Ethan responds.
"DINO THUNDER, POWER UP, ha!" both of them shout, morphing into Rangers again.
------------------
Meanwhile, Michael and Kira had managed to successfully infiltrate Mesogog's fortress, due to Michael knowledge of the facility, they'd managed to evade several Tyrannodrone patrols, although, they did have to fight one in the forest on the way.
"Which way to Mesogog's lab?" Kira asked; as her knowledge of the building was a few corridors surrounding Mesogog's main laboratory. Michael however seams to know his way round.
"Only a few more meters?" he said, "Wait here!" Michael said, pushing Kira lightly into a dark corner, "I'll be back in a minute"
"I'm coming with you" Kira stated.
"I need to scout ahead; I'll come get you when the coast is clear"
"But..."
"I'm the one with the camouflage; beside I'll only be a few minutes. This could all be a trap you know!"
"Okay, but don't be too long" Kira said as Michael disappeared, the she felt something press on her lips for a brief couple of seconds and then draw away, Michael had just kissed her while he was invisible.
"Be right back" Michel's disembodied voice said in the air.
Michael entered Mesogog's main lab chamber and instantly sees the meteor attached to some sort of scanning equipment. 'Mesogog's proberly trying to find out what it does, I need to get it outta here' Michael thinks and walks over and reappears next to the machine.
He starts to disconnect it from the scanner and grips it in hand, where is begins to glow bright purple and it shoots several purple energy tendrils out, two hit the White Dino Gem on Michael's Dino Brace and it glows white briefly. Then a scream is heard outside and Michael turns to see Zeltrax dragging Kira in being followed by Elsa and several Tyrannodrones.
"Hold it right there, White Ranger" Zeltrax warned, raising his sword towards Kira's neck.
"Let her go, Zeltrax!" Michael threatens.
"You are in no position to make demands, Ranger. Give us the rock and I promise I won't dissect your Yellow Ranger here in front of you" Zeltrax threatens, making his threat clear by pressing his sword against Kira's neck, the ultra-sharp blade drawing blood, despite the fact that it barely touched her.
"No Michael, don't" Kira says, feeling Zeltrax's blade pressing against her skin, her blood trickling in drops down the blade and then onto her chest.
"Give it here, Ranger" Elsa demands, and Michael lets Elsa take the meteor fragment.
As Elsa steps away, Michael sees only one way out of this, to morph. It's a risk, but he knows all to well that White Ranger hates Zeltrax just as much as he hates, well just about everyone else. Elsa turns to join the cyborg behemoth, when Michael shouts.
"WHITE RANGER POWER, ha!" and the Dino Gem begun to glow brightly, and because the energy from the gem is not being regulated by a Dino Morpher, the energy release is enormous. It sends Elsa flying back, causing her to knock her head on a workbench, sending her into unconsciousness and dropping the rock. Zeltrax is forced to shield his 'eyes' from the burst of energy, letting Kira go in the process. And the Tyrannodrones and Kira are blinded by the light and shield their eyes also. In the confusion, Michael, morphed as the White Ranger, picks up the meteor and begins to help Kira up. She resists, knowing he morphed, thinking it's the evil White Ranger.
"Kira, it's me, it's Michael!" Michael shouts. Kira looks in the general direction of the voice, still temporary blinded by the light.
"Michael?" Kira asks in confusion.
"Yeah, it's me. Come on get up, into not gonna take Zeltrax long to recover" and Kira lets herself be lifted up onto her feet.
"I've already recovered, Ranger! Prepare to be destroyed!" Zeltrax says.
"Speak of the devil!" Michael says, pushing Kira behind him, "I've got no time for this! White Drago Saber..." Michael pulls the weapon out of the hilt on his belt with his right hand, "...Laser Arrows!" and Michael draws several yellow arrows in the air, and using the saber, he flings them all in a group towards Zeltrax. The cyborg tries to block them, and succeeds deflecting a few, but the rest hit home, sending him flying back.
"Come on!" Michael says, placing his saber in his hilt again, and grabbing Kira by the hand. They ran to a console, and Michael pressed the 'Activate Portal' button, an invisi-portal opened, and Michael and Kira jumped through it.
------------------
Conner and Ethan were being beaten by Rojobot, Mesogog's latest freak. They had tried everything, but without Kira to help assemble the Z-Rex blaster, all Conner and Ethan could do was keep him occupied until Kira did turn up.
Several meters away an invisi-portal opens up and the White Ranger holding Kira appear.
"Kira, can you see?" Michael asks.
"Yes, just about" Kira says, looking around, and seeing the Red and Blue Rangers getting blasted by another bolt from Rojobot, "Conner! Ethan!" Michael looks over as well, "We need to help them"
"You'd better morph" Michael suggests.
"Right" Kira says, readying her morpher, which appears on her wrist, "DINO THUNDER, POWER UP, ha!" and Kira morphs into the Yellow Ranger. Michael runs towards the monster, kicking his super speed in and slashes the monster repeatedly, sending him to the ground. Both grabbing the monster and the other Rangers attention. Kira runs towards the Red and Blue Rangers.
"Kira!" Conner shouts, but goes defensive when he sees Michael walking over after hitting Rojobot. "You?!" and Conner points his Tyranno staff at him.
"Easy, Conner, he's here to help" Kira says, holding her hand out, Conner backs down, reluctantly.
"Really, Conner I am, I'm not your enemy" Michael says.
"Yeah right!" Conner counters.
"Um, guys, we've still got a monster to worry about" Ethan says.
"Okay, we'll sort this out later" Conner says, and the four Rangers turn to the Rojobot.
"Let's put 'em together!" Ethan says, and the three core Rangers form the Z-Rex Blaster.
Michael places the rock on the ground, unsheaths his Drago Saber, and the saber turns from saber into sword mode.
"Z-REX BLASTER!" Red, Blue and Yellow shout out together.
"White Drago Saber, Energy Orb!" White Ranger shouts, drawing a pure white orb of energy with the tip of his blade. "Fire!" and Michael flings the orb directly at Rojobot, trapping him in it.
"Man, he has an energy orb attack, just like Dr. O" Ethan says, shaking his head.
"Ready! Aim!" Conner says, "FIRE!" and the Z-Rex Blaster fires at Rojobot, still tapped in the energy orb, and then the Z-Rex blast hits the orb, it explodes in spectacular fashion.
"We rock!" Ethan says.
"Nice work guys!" Conner says.
------------------
Back in Mesogog's lab, the large Dino genius walks in to find his lab looking like a warzone, Zeltrax is still picking himself up off the ground, Elsa was still conscious.
"Zeltrax, what is going on here?" Mesogog asks.
"White Ranger, my lord"
"What?!"
"He came in, sir"
"Where is my meteor?"
"He took it, my lord" Zeltrax says, only to be blasted by telepathic energy from his master.
"Incompetent fool!" Mesogog says, walking over to his chair.
"Yes, my lord, but Rojobot is destroying the other two..." Zeltrax begun to say.
"Well, Zeltrax, it appears that your calculations were wrong, your monster had been destroyed by the Rangers, and the White one is among them" Mesogog says, then blasts Zeltrax again, "As I engage the Hydro Regenerator myself, I would like you to think about that you have done, and how much this has set back my master plan. Activate!" and Mesogog presses a button. Seconds later, Rojobot reappears in giant form.
------------------
They Rangers see Rojobot being grown large.
"Hayley, its zord time!" Conner calls into his Dino Morpher.
"They're on their way" Hayley says on the other end.
And the Tyranno, Tricera and Ptera Zords entered the area and the three Rangers jumped into their respective zords, and form the Thundersaurus Megazord.
"Ankylo Zord!" Conner calls, and the brace on his morpher changes from that Tyranno Zord into the Ankylo Zord. When the Ankylo arrives and stands beside the Megazord.
"Ankylo Zord, Double Drill Formation!" the Rangers shout, and the Tricera Zord detaches and the Ankylo takes its place, "Thundersaurus Megazord, Double Drill Mode!"
"Take this!" Rojobot fires several energy blasts towards the Megazord, but the Ankylo shield is used to deflect the attack back.
"Catch 'ya on the flip side! Rojobot says, walking away, "Stupid Megazord!" he says to himself.
"No so fast!" Michael calls from the ground, "Drago Zord! Stega Zord! On-line!"
The Stego and Drago Zords appear from their hiding place within a waterfall, and Michael jumps up to the Drago Zord and enters the cockpit. "Drago Zord, Power Up!" and the Drago Zord screeches, "Dino Stegazord Formation!" and the Drago Zord picks up the Stego Zord and lifts into the sky and the two zords begin to merge, the Drago Zord making up the helmet, the arms and legs of the White Rangers Megazord while the Stego Zord makes up the torso, the head and tail. Michael pilots the Dino Stegazord to block Rojobot's escape.
"Going somewhere?!" Michael asks, "Dino Stegazord, Tail Whip Attack!" The Dino Stegazord pivots on its feet and smashes its tail into the face of Rojobot.
"I told you guys, Michael was here to help" Kira said.
"Dino Stega-stinger!" Michael shouts and places the Dino Stinger in front of the Megazord and using an energy pulse from the hands, fires it towards the monster, hitting it sending it down.
"Finish it off, guys!" Michael shouts.
"Right!" Conner says.
"Thundersaurus Megazord, Double Drill Attack!" The three Rangers shout, and hits Rojobot first with the Tyranno Drill and then with the Ankylo Drill. After the three attacks, Rojobot falls to the ground and explodes.
------------------
Michael jumps from the Dino Stegazord to the ground; and the Rangers join him, Hayley recalling the Thundersaurus Megazord. The three Rangers approach the White Ranger; Michael turns around, holding the meteor fragment.
"Hey guys" Michael says as they approach, "here it is, take it" Michael held the rock out to the Rangers, Conner was apprehensive to take it.
"What's the catch?" Conner asked, not willing to trust him as much as Kira was.
"No catch, Conner" Michael says, continuing to hold it out, "I think it could help Dr. O"
"You proberly know it could help you too" Ethan says.
"What?!" Kira says, "How?"
"I know, but I don't thinkit can help both of us. Don't tell me how I know that, but I just know" Michael said, "Besides, I want it to help Dr. O, considering I was the cause of his problem" Michael continued to hold the meteor out, and Conner finally took it.
"Thank you" Conner said, and Michael turned around and prepared to jump into his Megazord.
"Conner?" Michael said.
"Yes"
"Say sorry to Dr. Oliver for me. It proberly doesn't mean much right now, but..."
"No problem, I'll tell him" Conner said.
"Thanks"
"Hey, man" Ethan says.
"Yeah, Ethan"
"Thanks for the assist"
"I enjoyed it. Being good defiantly has its perks!" Michael says, "Well guys, I've gotta go" and Michael jumps up to his Megazord and it starts to walk off.
"Michael!" Kira exclaims.
"Come on, lets get this to Hayley" Conner said, putting his spare hand on Kira's shoulder.
------------------
Inside the underground lab, several hours later, Hayley has constructed a laser using the meteor as a power source.
"Hayley, Ethan mentioned that the meteor could help Michael. Could we use it fight the effects of the White Dino Gem?"
"That might work, Kira. Assuming we don't blow this up on the first attempt" Hayley said; adjusting the machine, "Let's try to free Tommy first" Hayley flips the switch on the machine. A steady energy beam goes towards the amber and begins to dissolve it, but the machine begins to overheat and sparks fly, and seconds later the machine explodes, the force of it knocking Hayley on her butt. Kira and Conner a thrown also, but Conner catches her.
"You okay?" Conner asks, getting up, and helping the Yellow Ranger to her feet.
"The rock! It's fired!" Kira called out.
"Ethan! Get the fire extinguisher" Hayley shouted to the Blue Ranger, as Conner helped her up also. Ethan came back and put the small fire out on the machine.
The three Rangers and Hayley stood, when a figure came out off the smoke.
"Tommy?" Hayley called out.
"Dr. O?" Conner and Ethan said. Kira was happy that Tommy was free, but was upset that proberly the only chance to free Michael was destroyed.
"Good job guys" Tommy said.
"How do you feel, Dr. O?" Conner asked.
"A lot better, thanks guys. It's nice to be able to move around. Now what I could really do with nowis a shower!" Tommy said crossing his arms, "Power down!" However Tommy's armor failed to disappear. "I said 'Power down!'" Again, Tommy failed to demorph.
"I think we might have a problem" Tommy said looking at Hayley.

Synopsis: Tommy is free from his amber prison, but the meteor was destroyed, meaning it can't help break the White Ranger from the control of his evil gem.

Later, a fight between Michael and Conner is interrupted by Zeltrax and a monster, and they attack Michael. The attack seemingly destroyed the evil and returned Michael to normal. Michael wants to make amends and return the auxiliary zords, but can the Rangers really trust him?
