Chapter 7: Zafina's Big Mistake

Andros and Ashley made their way towards the bridge when Hendrix appeared on the screen. "Power Rangers, I order you to appear on the planet Onyx in less than an hour," he ordered.

"You don't order us around, Hendrix. We'll be on Onyx whenever we please," Karone snapped.

"Watch your tongue child," he snapped.

He then cut the transmission. "DECA set a course to Onyx," Andros instructed. The ship turned around and went towards Onyx.

Once they arrived, they morphed and went down to the planet.

Hendrix stood there waiting for them on the outskirts of the town. "Welcome, Rangers," he greeted.

"Why did you call us here?" Zhane demanded.

"Watch and learn, children," he cackled.

He then disappeared. "Whoa! Where did he go?" Zhane asked.

"Ashley, keep your tracking system on…" Andros was interrupted.

Ashley yelled when Hendrix grabbed her from behind, making her go invisible. "ASHLEY!" He yelled. Hendrix then reappeared with Ashley in his arms. Ashley was struggling against him and when the rest of the rangers went to help her, machine monsters appeared around them.

"You're coming with me, Yellow Ranger," he laughed.

Then they disappeared before Andros could reach them. "ASHLEY!" He yelled. He watched as they went into a ship and a hologram of Zafina appeared in front of them.

"Now try to fight against my powers, Andros. You're beloved Yellow Ranger belongs to me," she laughed.

Then the hologram disappeared. Zhane had Alpha transport them back to the ship.

Ashley struggled as Hendrix had her de-morph and he removed her morpher. Once he had her tied down, he removed her necklace too. "GIVE THAT BACK!" She yelled. Zafina nodded to Hendrix and took the morpher and necklace.

"Welcome, Ashley," she greeted.

"You won't get Andros by kidnapping me. He's too smart for that trick."

"On the contrary, while I have you here, Andros will obey my every word."

"What if he doesn't?"

Zafina then pointed her staff at Ashley's chest. "I'll destroy you and he'll receive your dead body," she threatened.

"Killing me won't prove anything. That will only make Andros fight harder to destroy you."

She then lifted Ashley's head up. "Oh you think so, huh? Just like how your Galaxy Ranger friends destroyed my sister?" She snapped. Ashley's eyes widened in disbelief, Trakeena was her sister. "That's right, Ashley. Trakeena is my older sister. Your friends destroyed the only family I had left," she hissed. She then stormed out of the room with Ashley's morpher and necklace in hand.

Andros was waiting for a message from Zafina when a black light hit the bridge. Karone walked over when the light disappeared and bent down. "What is it?" He asked. Karone picked up a box and placed it in front of Andros. Andros opened the box. He placed Ashley's morpher onto the controls, but then they saw him hold something with his eyes burning with fiery. In the palm of his hand was the necklace he gave Ashley two years ago. He closed his and held the necklace to him. "I will get Ashley back and there's nothing you can do to stop me now, Zafina," he snapped.
