Chapter 35: The Destruction

Andros was sitting in the galley when he felt a pair of arms go around him. He turned and looked at his wife. "How are you feeling?" He asked. It's been three weeks since Zafina almost destroyed the baby. However, now the couple were as happy as could be knowing that they still had a baby to look forward to.

"I'm feeling great," she replied.

"And the baby?" He asked.

"It's still there."

He gave her a kiss and she sat down next to him. "I have a surprise for you," he told her.

"Really, what is it?" She asked.

Andros grabbed her hand and stood up. "I'll show you, but I have to put this on you first," he stated. He tied a blindfold on. Their friends watched as Andros led Ashley towards his motorcycle. Carter helped her get on and watched as they went off. Dana walked over with a smile and he wrapped his arm around her waist.

Ashley felt it stop and Andros grabbed her hand. "Are you ready?" He asked.

"Come on, Andros, tell me," she insisted.

He placed his hands on her shoulders with a smile. "Okay, take the blindfold off," he whispered. Ashley took it off and gasped. A beautiful, but small two-story house sat in front of her.

It was white with blue trimming, a nice sized front yard, a good sized backyard, an oak tree sat in the backyard, it had kitchen, three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a living room, and a small dining room.

"Andros! It's beautiful," she whispered. He led her inside and she looked around with disbelief. "Are you sure we can pay for this?" She asked.

"I'm very sure. Welcome home, Ashley," he murmured.

"This is so beautiful."

He wrapped his arms around her and she placed her hands over his with tears in her eyes. Just then, their communicators went off. "Andros," he answered.

"Diabolico and Olympius are attacking the city. The Rangers need you now," Captain Mitchell instructed.

"We're on our way," Ashley assured him.

Andros nodded, grabbed her hand, and they ran out of the house.

They got onto Andros's motorcycle and they went off to the fight.

Diabolico was beating the rest of the Rangers when blaster shots came at Diabolico and Olympius. "HANG ON GUYS!" Ashley shouted. Andros stopped the motorcycle and they jumped off.

"Ready, Ashley?" Andros asked.

"You know it."

"LET'S ROCKET!"

They morphed and ran to help their friends. Andros ran over and pulled Olympius off of Carter. Diabolico walked over and grabbed Andros. "Don't try and destroy him, Andros, he's under a spell," Carter insisted.

"I'll try not to," Andros assured him.

Ashley ran over to him. "Double team him," she suggested. Andros nodded and they fought Diabolico together. Olympius walked over and grabbed Andros.

"Diabolico, I have Zafina's prize," he informed.

Andros tried fighting him off, but he was too strong. "Andros!" Ashley gasped. A blast hit Olympius, which made him drop Andros. They looked up to see Karone there with her motorcycle.

"Nobody treats my brother like an object," she snapped.

"To Zafina, this is her prize," Olympius snapped.

"I don't think so, fight me, Olympius. She wants me too."

"Fine, then I'll show my mother how great I really am for taking down the Pink Galaxy Ranger."

Karone pulled out her saber and fought Olympius.

"CARTER!" Dana screamed. Carter was being pulled up by his throat. He was trying to get Diabolico to remember that Queen Bansheera and Zafina betrayed him.

"Diabolico, you've got to remember. The Queen betrayed you! Zafina betrayed you! They destroyed Vypra, and then made you destroy Loki! Think back!" Carter gagged.

Diabolico's eyes turned from dead black to the normal color again. "I remember," he told him. He dropped Carter and the Red Ranger held his throat in pain.

"Carter! Are you okay?" Dana asked.

"I'm okay, Day, where's Andros and Ashley?" He asked.

"They were fighting Olympius, but then Olympius knocked them down. Karone has challenged him to a duel," she replied.

Andros and Ashley ran over to their friend. "Are you okay?" Ashley asked.

"I'll be okay. Is Karone all right?" He asked.

Andros looked up to see Karone trying to fight Olympius, but the monster struck her down. "KARONE!" He shouted. Diabolico turned and looked at Andros.

"Don't worry, Red Ranger. I'll make sure your sister will be safe," he assured him.

Andros was in shock. Carter placed a hand on his shoulder. "He wants to destroy Queen Bansheera and Zafina," Carter informed.

Karone cried out in pain when Olympius stomped on her chest. "This is goodbye, Pink Ranger," he laughed. Then a blast hit him. "What?" He asked. He looked over to see Diabolico.

"Let her go, Olympius," Diabolico ordered.

"Why? We are so close to defeating them."

"WRONG! You won't harm any of these people anymore."

He kicked Olympius away and helped Karone stand. "Are you all right, Pink Ranger?" He asked.

"I think so," she replied.

Diabolico winced when Olympius hit him in the back with his staff. "Step aside, Diabolico," Olympius snapped.

"Never," Diabolico answered.

"I will get those stupid kids and you can't stop me."

"Yes, I can and I will."

The two monsters fought each other and Andros ran to Karone. "Karone, are you okay?" He asked.

"Yeah," she replied.

He helped her stand up and they hurried back over to Carter and the rest of the team. When Diabolico fell, Carter and Andros ran to his side. "CARTER! ANDROS! WAIT!" Chad shouted. They ignored the Blue Ranger and helped Diabolico up.

"Don't give up, we can beat him! Remember what Queen Bansheera did," Carter insisted.

"I've grown to hate Queen Bansheera more than you," Diabolico stated.

He then handed a Golden Key to Andros. "Take this! It will help you defeat her," he informed.

"THAT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN! I'M NOT GOING TO LOSE MY POWERS TO THAT WENCH BECAUSE OF YOU!" Olympius shouted.

Diabolico saw the blast coming at them and pushed Andros and Carter away. "RANGERS OUT OF THE WAY!" He shouted.

"DIABOLICO!" Karone exclaimed.

Diabolico was gone. Carter helped Andros stand up and they looked at Olympius. "He didn't deserve that, Olympius. Now it's your turn," Carter snapped. Then he called on their weapons. Andros pushed the number three on his battlized morpher.

"RED BATTLIZED RANGER!" He shouted.

"TRANS-ARMOR CYCLE ONLINE!" Carter shouted.

"MEGA-BATTLE BLUE!" Chad shouted.

"MEGA-BATTLE GREEN!" Joel shouted.

"T-A CANNON 1!" Kelsey shouted.

"T-A CANNON 2!" Dana shouted.

"T-A CANNON 3!" Ashley shouted.

"LIGHTS OF ORION ACTIVATE!" Karone shouted.

They all stood there with their weapons in hand. Even the T-A cannons that Ms. Fairweather just finished. "Okay, guys, ready?" Carter asked.

"Ready," they replied.

"READY...AIM...FIRE!" Kelsey yelled.

"POWER UP MODE!" Karone yelled.

"BATTLIZER MISSILES!" Andros shouted.

All of their power went straight for Olympius, who couldn't escape them. They watched as Olympius was destroyed.

Zafina watched with a sneer. "This isn't over yet, Rangers. Grow with even more power than before," she ordered.

Diabolico and Olympius came back. "Diabolico, don't let her control you," Carter insisted. Diabolico looked at him and blasted energy at them. "We have not other choice. Omegazords online," Carter ordered. Dana looked at Andros and Ashley.

"Are you guys going to be okay?" Dana asked.

"We'll be fine, go," Ashley insisted.

Dana nodded before going. Andros held Ashley to him. From their last battle in their Megazord with Trakeena, they couldn't get it back online, so they had to watch the fights. Karone stood by her brother and sister-in-law as she watched the fight.

As the fight when on, Ashley gasped when Carter's zord fell. "CARTER!" She exclaimed. Just as Diabolico and Olympius were going to finish him off, Kelsey and Dana arrived in the Lifeforce Megazord.

"Hop in," Dana invited.

"Thanks, we'd love to," Karone stated.

They jumped into their compartments on the Megazord and got ready. "Okay, guys, it's just like how we practiced," Andros informed. Karone and Ashley nodded before getting ready to beat Olympius and Diabolico once and for all.

"Are you guys still with me?" Carter asked.

"Yeah," everyone replied.

"All right let's get these guys," Carter stated.

The Lifeforce Megazord was defeating them with no problem. Finally, at last Diabolico and Olympius were gone. "ALL RIGHT!" They cheered.

Zafina looked up with Olympius's star power came to Queen Bansheera. Queen Bansheera took the Star Power into her hands and looked at Zafina. "Well, my child, are you ready?" She asked. Zafina looked at the Star Power and was about to answer when Jinxer came in.

"I'm out of monster cards, my queen," he informed nervously.

"If you can't make any more monsters, then you're of no further use to us," Queen Bansheera hissed.

She was about to drain Jinxer's life energy when he stopped her. "I did put one on the Megazord's leg, my queen. Right before the Pink and Yellow Lightspeed Rangers took it away," he informed. Zafina looked at Queen Bansheera to see a smile on her face.

"Ahh, the Megazord! So the Rangers are taking Batlings into the Aquabase with them? How delightful. You finally did something right," she told him.

"Why, thank you, my queen. I think," he murmured.

Queen Bansheera looked at Zafina. "Now, my child, are you ready to receive the Star Power?" She asked. Zafina looked at the Star Power and nodded.

"Yes, my lady, I am ready," she replied.

Queen Bansheera placed the Star Power on the silver band around Zafina's head and watched as she transformed.

Her hair and nails grew a few inches longer, her beauty that made her look like a child transformed her into looking like a beautiful woman. A new staff appeared before her. Her features turned darker with the evil put inside her. But then, her beauty was like what Queen Bansheera told her, there was no one like her.

Queen Bansheera smiled to see how Zafina transformed. "Thank you, my lady," Zafina told her.

"I'd do anything to have the daughter of Scorpius to have anything she wanted, including the Red Space Ranger," she assured her.

Zafina then bowed down to her. "I continue to pledge my loyalty to you, my lady. Together, we will destroy the Power Rangers and have the Red Space Ranger be mine," Zafina vowed. Queen Bansheera had her rise.

"Yes, and in all in good time we will destroy those pathetic beings and have the Red Ranger belong to you."

Then both evil sorceresses laughed evilly.

However, the Golden Key Diabolico gave Andros flew from the city and into a tomb. It went into a wall and it looked like a drawing.
