Chapter 4: Dilemma
Back in the Dino Lab, Jason was pacing back and forth listening to Hayley and the rest of the people there. They talked about how the DinoThunder Rangers came to be and how the Zeos met them and what had happened that day.
"Damn," Jason said. "This doesn't look good, does it?"
"No, it doesn't," Elsa said. "I fear for those kids. Who knows what evil Mesogog has up his sleeve?"
"We need to plan a rescue mission and fast," Adam said.
"I agree, Adam," Jason said. "Do you guys even know where to look?"
"Yes, we do," Hayley said as she pulled up the invisa-portal monitoring screen. "This monitors the network of invisa-portals that Mesogog has around Reefside and the surrounding area. He goes to and from his fortress with these portals. We were able to get through to his fortress a few times, but he has enforced them with firewalls now, so it is harder to get through there now."
"We were working on a device to try and break it, but we never finished it, because Zeltrax attacked and it wasn't needed," Anton said. "Besides, I don't think that I built it right either. Hayley is more of the technical wizard around here."
"Oh. Now you are just brown nosing, Anton."
"Really?" Billy said. "Can I see the device?" Elsa went to a part of the cave that the firewall device was stored in and brought it to Billy.
"So what is that technically supposed to do again?" Cassidy said as she applied some lip gross. She had been so worried about the other Rangers that she was biting her lip a lot and it was getting chapped.
"It is suppose to disable the barrier that keeps us from getting in," Hayley said.
"Hmmm," Billy said as he opened it up and looked at the components. "You need adjust the wavelength modulator. The gamma sensors are needed for it to work and you have to add reverse polarizing electromagnetic cells in order the whole thing to work."
"Whoa!" Devin said. "I didn't catch any of that. Care to repeat that in English?"
"Ha ha ha!" Jason said. "I haven't heard your techno babble in a long time, Billy."
"Damn, he is good!" Anton said.
"And the thing is that I understood that totally," Hayley said. "I am such a geek."
"Then you can help me make it work," Billy said.
"Totally!" The other Rangers were looking at them weird.
"Ok," Jason said. "Until we get that done, we need to be on guard for any attack that freak Mesogog makes. Those dinos are strong and we have to be ready for anything."
Katherine walked away from the crowd up the stairs and into Tommy's living room. She sat there worrying about Tommy. She could only imagine what Mesogog was doing to him.
'Tommy, I pray you will be alright,' Katherine silently prayed to herself. 'Please don't die on me. I love you too much. I might be too shy to tell you how much I care, but I do love you.' When Katherine looked up after sobbing into her hand, she eyed Elsa walked by the open area and down the hall towards the bathroom. Seeing Elsa reminded her of what had happened at the school earlier and she felt her heart ache. 'He likes her. I can't deny that.' She took a deep breath. 'If Tommy comes back, I won't stand in their way. I love him too much to do that to him.' At that moment, Elsa came back from the bathroom and saw Katherine sitting there crying.
"Katherine, what's wrong?" Elsa said.
"Nothing," Katherine said as she walked passed her wiping the tears from her eyes.
"No," Elsa said as she stopped her. "What's wrong?"
"I... it's nothing, Elsa. I'm just very worried." Elsa hugged Katherine.
"If you want to talk about anything, just find me and we will talk. Alright?"
"Yeah."
"Ok, let's see if we can find our missing teammates, huh?" Elsa said as she and Katherine returned to the Dino Lab.
Back in the Lab, Tommy laid in the chair pondering anything that he could do to escape, but he couldn't think of anything except to nah his arms off which he knew wouldn't work because he, A) couldn't reach them and B) wasn't a squirrel. He thought about the first day he came to Reefside High. How he met Elsa and how mean she was at the time.
'Little did I know you were working for Mesogog at the time,' Tommy thought to himself. He then remembered coming into the class and speaking to the students and seeing Ethan and Kira for the first time.
'Man, little did I know they were going to become Rangers.'
He remembered the empty seat that belonged to Conner.
'And Conner skipped class the first day.' Tommy laughed to himself. He then remembered walking up with Elsa to where the soon to be DinoThunder Rangers were standing, annoyed that they were being given detention.
'And that is when I met them face to face.' He sighed. 'Man, I never should have taken them to the museum. They never would have found my lab and they never would have been forced to be Rangers.' Tommy then started remembering everything that had happened to them as Rangers. This was making Tommy mad at himself. 'They should never have had to use the power! I never should have given them the morphers! It is all my fault!' At that moment, the triceratops dino came in with a plate of food followed by the male winged one.
"Ethan? Trent?" Tommy said as they came up to him. Trent undid the straps and grabbed Tommy. Tommy tried to struggle, but found that fighting against Trent now was futile. He waited as they took him out of the lab and down a very dark corridor. Trent opened the door and threw Tommy in. Tommy hit the wall with his back and feel down it in pain. Ethan slid the tray in front of Tommy and the two closed the door leaving only the moonlight from the outside that was shining in be the only brightness in a sea of black that Tommy could see. "This is bad. What time is it?" He took out the cell phone that was still in his pocket and looked at the time. "Midnight! Man, time flies by."
Tommy looked out the window at the moon. 'Guys, if you are going to do something, please hurry. There's not much time left for anyone.' He looked back at his food and sat down and grabbed it. He ate the food, but grimaced when he took the first bite. 'Man, is he trying to poison me to death? "Blech!" ' The ray must have brought out their evil sides as well. Damn! If Conner and the others are completely gone, then maybe it will be for the best if Jason and others put them out of their misery before they hurt someone. I hate the fact that they are working for him now. They probably aren't the same Rangers anymore.' He finished his food and sat back. 'I deserve this. If I ever get out of here, I will face the consequences with their parents. They never should have been put through this.' Tommy closed his eyes to think, but then opened them when Mesogog opened the door with a loud clang.
"Morning, Dr. Oliver,' Mesogog said slyly.
"What! Morning!" Tommy said franticly as he quickly looked at his cell phone that was still in his hand. It read 6:30 am. 'It felt like I blinked.'
"Grab him," Mesogog said. Conner and Ethan grabbed him and they dragged Tommy back to the lab. There he saw the orange gem that was incased in diamond on a table with a machine connected to a box that held the DinoThunder Rangers' Dino Gems. "Now Tommy, you are going to help me in succeeding with my plan to take over."
"How?" Tommy said with a stern look.
"Well, since I can no longer use the transmorgraphing ray to change you and the rest of the world into dinosaurs like myself and your students, I am going to move on to Plan B."
"What's Plan B?"
"THAT is Plan B," Mesogog said as he pointed to the orange dino gem on the table "That gem has the power of regeneration, a power that I have wanted to harness all this time. I've had it since the very beginning. It was closely guarded in a chamber where you couldn't sense it with your computer system. It would resurrect my dino companions that went extinct long ago. In order to crack the barrier surrounding this valuable gem, I need your dino gems to release it from its prison."
"What do you need me for then?" Tommy grumbled.
"I need you because they are not the only things I will resurrect." Mesogog said as he grabbed Tommy's chin and made Tommy look him dead in the eye. "I am going to take back what was originally mine that was destroyed in your incapable hands."
"Destroyed? What are you babbling about?"
"The bio-zords." Mesogog let go of Tommy when he finished that sentence. Tommy was surprised. They had used the zords to defeat Zeltrax not once, but twice. In doing so however, the Rangers had sacrificed them in order to destroy the Zelzord. "You and your Rangers stole them from me and now I want them back."
"And why exactly do you need me?" Tommy said sarcastically.
"For some reason, those gems of yours allow you to telepathically control them and you are the only ranger experienced enough to use the gem and tame the zords. I figure that you can sense when they are near too. Basically, I will use you as a bloodhound to search them out."
"I will never do it!" Tommy yelled. "I won't help you ever!"
"Remember, Tommy," Mesogog said. "You aren't in a position to negotiate any terms. I have your students under my power. Plus…" Mesogog used his telekinesis to hurt Tommy's mind and Tommy yelled in pain as he tried to fight it. It felt like a thousand needles were puncturing his head. "I can destroy your Rangers very easily with my boosted mind power. And mind you, that was about a quarter of my power."
Mesogog stopped his attack and Tommy went limp, trying to catch his breath. He stared at the ground trying to recover from what had happened. When he did, he thought about his students and what he could possibly do.
"Fine," Tommy said. "I will help you. I will need the gems back to do it though."
"Fine," Mesogog said as he went over to the compartment of the machine that held the dino gems. He opened it and grabbed all of the gems and brought them to Tommy. "If you try anything funny, I will not hesitate in killing your students." Tommy looked at the dinos. He saw their emotionless faces look at him.
"Right," Tommy said somberly.
"Then go my pets," Mesogog said. They dropped Tommy. He stood up to look at his mutated students. "Go and attack the city." All of the dinos began to exit the lab except Kira. Kira hesitated to move. "Move! Now!" Mesogog got very angry and used his telekinesis to hurt Kira. She fell to the ground, grabbing her head and she yelled and growled in pain.
"NO! STOP!" Tommy yelled in anguish. The dinos held him back. "YOU'RE HURTING HER!" Mesogog stopped and began to walk out the door.
"Kira! When you are able to learn respect, then you can join your friends in battle," Mesogog said. "Come Dr. Oliver. I require your services." Mesogog went out the door with Ethan, Conner and Trent.
Tommy ran to Kira and bent down to see if she was alright. When he looked into his student's eyes, he began to cry. He saw tears rolling from her eyes.
"Dr……O…..?" Kira said. "I'm……sorry…"
"Oh God!" Tommy said and then he hugged her trying desperately to comfort her as he started to cry. He couldn't bare it. He had realized that the Rangers were still themselves underneath all the scales and they were being forced to do everything Mesogog told them to do. "Did Mesogog gain that much power from absorbing our dino gems?"
"NOW OLIVER!" Mesogog yelled. Tommy looked in antipathy at the direction Mesogog's voice came from.
"I will change you back Rangers, " Tommy said with look of revenge on his face. "I swear it!" Tommy then walked out the lab and to where Mesogog and the other Rangers were waiting.
Back at Tommy's house, all the Rangers except for Cassidy and Devin spent the night at the house. Billy was up to about two in the morning trying to get the firewall-breaking device to work when Hayley and Jason told him to go to sleep. His welding and cutting of the circuits and wiring had woken them up. In the morning around the same time Tommy had been rudely awaked, Hayley had gone into the kitchen to make coffee. Rocky awoke to the smell of it and went to the kitchen. He saw her pouring some into a cup.
"Man, how can you wake up so early?" Rocky said as he came into the kitchen.
"I'm worried," Hayley said.
"We all are," Rocky said. "I didn't sleep well either."
"Want some coffee?"
"Sure." Hayley grabbed a cup for him and filled it.
"Billy says that he almost has the device finished," Hayley said. "I would like to see what I could do to help him."
"Have you worked on the device yet?"
"I am going to go check on it right now. I just wanted to make coffee so I can be awake enough to look at it. Once that thing is done, we are busting in on Mesogog's scaly ass like we did the last time."
"Cassidy should be getting off work here in a minute," Rocky said as he looked at the microwave clock. "She said that she and Devin were going to come straight here."
"Yeah, I think that we should make breakfast for everyone," Hayley said. "I have a feeling that it is going to be a long day."
Cassidy and Devin came out of the studio all tired and beat. They didn't sleep well either and they had to get up early to work. After about a few feet out the door, Mr. Cormier poked his head out the door.
"Get some sleep, Cornell!" he yelled. "You did well, but you look exhausted. You too, DaValle!"
"Right," the two groaned. He went back inside and Cassidy and Devin got into her pink VW bug and drove towards Tommy's house.
"Thank God I had a shot of espresso before we went today," Cassidy said. "I am so beat."
"Me too," Devin said as he made sure that his camera and all of its parts were in his camera bag. "Man, Cormier was on our backs today."
"Guess what though?" Cassidy said. "He said that if I get a big enough scoop, I can move up to the five o'clock evening news as a co-anchor!"
"That is great!" Devin said. "Wait…when did he say this?"
"When I was going back to my dressing room. If we could defeat Mesogog, we would so get that scoop."
"Cass!" Devin scolded her. "You know Dr. Oliver would never let you do that."
"Yeah," Cassidy said sadly. "I know…"
"Man, what are we going to do Cass? It's Ethan, Conner, Kira and Trent. They're the same age as us. They're classmates. We couldn't ask for any better teammates or friends. Now they're missing."
"I know. Without them, we don't know what the hell we're doing. They're like family. They've been so good to us."
"Yeah," Devin said as he looked out the window. "Dr. Oliver always knew what to do."
"Yeah," Cassidy said. "I know he and the other Rangers will get out of this somehow. They are like that."
"Plus, we have the older Rangers to help us."
"Yeah! We'll get them back!" Cassidy yelled in a positive tone. "I know it!"
A few minutes later at around seven in the morning, Cassidy and Devin walked into the house to find the rest of the ZEO Rangers sleeping on the couches and sleeping blankets on the floor. They tip toed in passed the sleeping Rangers and into the kitchen where they found Hayley, Jason and Rocky. Jason had joined them when he smelled the coffee as well.
"You guys look beat," Jason said.
"We are," Devin said as him and Cassidy leaned up against one of the counters exhausted.
"When you are worried about your best friends, you tend not to sleep well," Cassidy.
"I don't think that anyone slept well last night," Rocky said.
"Yeah, we are all worried about Conner and the other Rangers," Hayley said.
"I should have stopped Tommy from going," Jason said as he pounded his fist into his other hand.
"Jason, I don't think that you could have," Rocky said. "Tommy is stubborn like that and will do anything for the benefit of others."
"I know, but…"
"And you need to stop blaming yourself for everything. That is a nasty habit you have." Jason gave Rocky a disgruntled look. Jason knew Rocky was right. Suddenly, they heard the Dino Lab alarm downstairs go off.
"OUCH!" a female voiced.
"Oh god! Sorry, Tanya," Katherine said. She had been started so much that she accidentally hit Tanya in the nose. All the Rangers ran downstairs and to the computer. Hayley found the source. The dinos were attacking the city.
"Man! This early in the morning?" Adam ranted.
"Sorry guys, but duty calls," Jason said.
"Right," everyone yelled and then another alarm went off.
"What is that one for?" Tanya asked.
"I am checking," Hayley said and checked. "It is picking up a huge amount of energy near downtown. Let me see if we can see the source of it." Hayley scanned the downtown area. In the surveillance footage, people were fleeing the area. Just then, they got a picture of Mesogog walking up.
"And there is the creep that has the DinoThunders," Billy said. Everyone gasped when they saw Tommy walking behind him.
"What the?" the whole room said at the same time. They watched as Mesogog gave a command to Tommy. He gave the Red Dino Gem to Tommy. The Rangers could see that Mesogog had the other gems as well.
"That is why there is a huge energy reading," Hayley said. "The Dino Gems are in one place." They saw Tommy close his eyes and concentrate and then a few seconds later, he pointed in one direction and the two walked toward where Tommy had been pointing.
"He turned on us…….AGAIN!" Rocky yelled. "Mesogog might have turned him evil again. Man, it is always a pain when he is on the wrong side."
"Rocky," Tanya said. "You don't know if he is evil. He could be being forced to do something."
"Yeah," Adam said. "The expression on Tommy's face when Mesogog told him to do something wasn't a pleasant one. He looked disgusted. If we need to get mad at anyone, it should be Mesogog."
"I agree," Jason said. "Ok guys, we need to split up to try and fight the dino freaks. "I hate to say this, but we can't go after Tommy and Meso…whatever his name is. The safety of the people comes first."
"But, Dr. Oliver and the others!" Cassidy said in surprise.
"I know! If we can get rid of the dinos and then save your teacher and others, we will, but the dinos are more of a priority." Cassidy and Devin reluctantly agreed.
"Ready, guys? It's morphin' time!" Jason said.
"DinoThunder Power Up, HA!" Cassidy and Devin said. All the Rangers morphed into their respective suits and went down town to where Conner, Trent and Ethan were attacking the buildings.
"HEY UGLIES!" Rocky yelled. Conner, Trent and Ethan turned around. "We are going to send you back where you came from!"
"Rocky…..that is really cliché!" Tanya said shaking her head. "Can you ever be serious?"
"Hush you," Rocky said.
"Tell your master we are going kick his sorry behind, turn Tommy back to normal, and rescue the DinoThunder Rangers!" Jason said.
"Master hasn't turned Oliver evil," Conner said.
"What?"
"What!" Hayley said. She had just got off the phone with Anton and Elsa. She had come into the conversation half way.
"Dr. Oliver follows Mesogog's orders willingly," Ethan said.
"Dr. Oliver is not evil," Trent said.
"Then why is he doing this?" Katherine yelled.
"No talk! Fight! Fight or we face master's wrath!" Conner said and charged the Rangers. Trent jumped up, started to fly and then grabbed Ethan. The two soar upward and then Trent came zooming down toward the group of Rangers.
"Crap!" Billy said.
While the fighting was starting, Tommy and Mesogog were nearing the location of the fallen Tyrannozord. Tommy had a glum look on his face.
"Where is it, Tommy?" Mesogog said impatiently. Tommy closed his eyes. He used the telepathic power that Conner's Gem had. All the gems were able to tame the zords with that power. Tommy could feel the Tyrannozord's energy and remaining thoughts of determination coming from about a block away near the car graveyard.
"There," Tommy said tersely. The two went up to where they found bits and pieces of the mighty zord scatters along the car graveyard. Tommy was angry when he saw this site. When he had tried to figure out where the city had disposed the remains of the zords just after they had sacrificed them before, the mayor wouldn't cooperate with him. He would only rely the information to their location if the Rangers would reveal their identities and Tommy refused very negatively to him. Seeing the Tyrannozord made him sad as well. He had debated time and time again whether sacrificing the zords was worth it or if he had made a very reckless decision.
"Finally! Tyrannodrones, take our precious cargo back to the fortress," Mesogog said happily. "Interesting that the city disposed of the zord here. I am thinking that they dumped all of them here. Use the gems to check if all of them are here." Mesogog handed Tommy all the gems and gave him a look that signaled that if Tommy dared try anything funny he would pay a price for it. Tommy concentrated on the gems and then he could feel all the energies of the zords. Mesogog had been right. Tommy could feel their presences in the car graveyard.
"They are here too," Tommy said painfully. He knew he had no choice in this matter.
"Exxxxceeellent," Mesogog said satisfied.
Adam grabbed Ethan's horns and tried to fight from being skewered alive. Adam tried to push Ethan back when Billy came up with his lance to try and hit him. Due to the armor on Ethan, Billy's attacks were bouncing right off. Billy's attack however distracted Ethan long enough for Adam to get away from him and to catch his breath. Cassidy came up to Adam to see if he was alright but then the two were knocked down when Billy was thrown into them. Devin slashed at Trent with his axes, but Trent was too fast for Devin and dodged every one of them. Tanya came up with her Zeo pistol and fired a few shots, but Trent dodged those and swiped at Tanya knocking her down. Devin helped her up.
"This is terrible!" Tanya said. "We are having a horrible time with these guys."
"We can't even combine our weapons together," Devin said.
Jason had his Power Sword in hand when he when slash at Conner. Even though Conner was the biggest of the dinos, he wasn't slow at all. Conner dodged the sword and used his tail to hit Jason's side. Jason fell over onto the ground. When Conner was about to use the tail to come down on top of Jason, Katherine got in between the two, used her shield and braced herself for the impact. Conner hit and she slid back into Jason absorbing some of the impact. Jason took out his blaster and fired at Conner. He hit him in the chest and Conner backed up.
"Man, they are tough!" Rocky said.
"Master Mesogog says to destroy Rangers!" Conner said.
"Must not disobey Mesogog," Ethan said.
"Man, that is low!" Adam said. "He is using fear to make them work for him."
"That is sad," Tanya said.
"Destroy!" The dinos said as they lunged at the Rangers. The Rangers used their blasters and fired. They managed to hit all of them pretty hard, except for Ethan. His armor had shielded some of the attacks.
"Uh oh!" Katherine said.
"Devin! Let's combine weapons!" Cassidy said. She took her crossbow and Devin put his axes into gun mode and put them underneath Cassidy's crossbow. Cassidy held the weapon as Devin braced himself behind her so that they could absorb the recoil on the shot.
"Z-Hunter bow!" the two said. "Fire!" Cassidy shot at Ethan and the shot hit him hard sending him into the other dinos.
"Nice shot!" Jason said as the Rangers ran up to Cassidy and Devin. "Not bad for newbies." The two teens smiled under their helmets.
"Retreat to master!" Conner said. The flying dino jumped up and grabbed the other two dinos and flew away.
"Rangers, come in," Hayley said.
"Go ahead Hayley," Devin said.
"Those dinos are heading straight for Mesogog and Tommy. If you can be quick enough, you can catch all of them."
"But, it is clear across town, Hayley," Adam said. "How can we get there before those dinos do?"
"I KNOW!" Devin said, looked around and demorphed. "Hayley, where is it?"
"Let me check," Hayley. "At the car graveyard."
"Good, I know that place. Guys, get closer together."
"Devin, what are you doing?" Cassidy said.
"This!" Devin concentrated on a memory that he had of going to the car graveyard with his dad to find car parts for his family's car and then concentrated on thinking he was there. The Rangers felt themselves being pulled upward and then down again. When the feeling stopped, they realized that they had teleported to that very location.
"What the!" Jason said.
"He can teleport with his dino gem," Cassidy said.
"And I thought that teleporting in the Ranger business now was dead," Tanya said. The Rangers began to laugh.
"Guys, get serious," Jason said. "We need to find Meso-freak and Tommy. Let's split up. Cassidy, you, Tanya and Katherine go that way to the left. Adam, Devin and Billy, you go right and Rocky, we are going down the middle. Call for the others when you see them."
"Right," Jason said.
The groups moved south down the car graveyard. As they were searching for Mesogog and Tommy, Rocky confronted Jason about something that was bugging him.
"Hey, Jase," Rocky said.
"Yeah?" Jason replied.
"I was wondering…how come you guys didn't call me when you were doing the Red Ranger mission?" Jason stopped. He was being put on the spot. He didn't know what to say.
"Uhhh….ask Tommy," Jason quickly retorted.
"What?" Rocky yelled in disbelief. "You guys aren't telling me something that happened! Why didn't you guys invite me?"
"SHUT IT, Rocky!" Jason said sharply. "We need to be quiet!"
"I am not going to be quiet unless someone tells me what the hell…." Rocky said and then Jason grabbed him and pulled him down behind a car. Rocky looked up and saw why Jason had pulled him down. They had found Mesogog and Tommy.
"I am surprised, Tommy," Mesogog said. "We also found the new Rangers zords here as well. You are really reckless with your zords."
"Hmph!" Tommy said.
Jason talked into his communicator that had been tuned into the DinoThunder bracelets so that all the rangers could speak to one another. He told the others where they were and to meet them there. The two watched Tommy and Mesogog as they talked.
"Only your zord left to find Tommy and then I will have them all," Mesogog said.
"Right," Tommy said glumly.
"Once I have the zords, Tommy, your Ranger friends won't stand a chance."
"The zords?" Jason said in surprise. "He is collecting their zords? Why?"
"They're resourceful, Mesogog. They will defeat you. And with my best friend leading them, you won't win." Mesogog grabbed Tommy by the collar and used his telekinesis on Tommy. Tommy grabbed his head in pain and as Mesogog let go of him, he dropped to the ground.
"What the?" Rocky whispered. "The heck did he do to Tommy?"
Tommy looked up and saw Jason and Rocky. Tommy was happy to see them, but then became serious when he looked back up at Mesogog who was surveying over the tyrannodrones gathering the last pieces of the Brachiozord. Tommy looked at the gems in his right hand and his black gem in the left. Tommy mouthed to Rocky and Jason, 'Keep these from him!' and tossed the gems in his right hand to Jason and Rocky. The two Rangers caught them, but when Rocky had reached to catch two of them, his arm hit a broken muffler and it fell to the ground with a loud clang.
"What?" Mesogog said as he turned around to find Tommy about to throw his own gem to Jason. Mesogog used his telekinesis again and made Tommy drop his gem. Tommy fell to the ground trying desperately to shut out the pain.
"Damn it!" Jason said as the two Rangers tried to run up to where Tommy was, but was stopped by Conner and Ethan dropping out of the sky. Conner and Ethan charged Jason and Rocky as Mesogog grabbed the black Dino Gem from the ground.
"You disobeyed me, Dr. Oliver," Mesogog yelled angrily through his teeth. "Where are the other gems!" Mesogog then knew that Tommy had done something to get rid of them and became even angrier. He applied more pressure onto Tommy's brain and Tommy let out an anguished scream because he was hurting so badly. When Mesogog stopped, Tommy had gone unconscious. He went over to him and grabbed the Black Dino Gem. "No matter. I only need your gem anyway."
Jason and Rocky were getting thrown about. The strength of Ethan and Conner was very hard for the two Rangers to take. Conner grabbed Jason by the neck with his tail and slammed him up against a smashed car.
"Master doesn't like you snooping," Conner said.
"I will keep that in mind," Jason said as he tried to get out of Conner's grip. Rocky was hoping from car to car trying not to get caught by Ethan. Ethan did outsmart Rocky however when he threw half of a car at Rocky and Rocky went to dodge it. Ethan came in and tackled Rocky pinning him to the ground.
"Let go of him!" a female voice said. A blast came at Ethan and pushed him off of Rocky. Cassidy came up to Rocky. She helped him up. "You okay?"
"Back off!" Katherine said as she threw her shield at Conner. Her shield hit Conner's tail and then Tanya came in with her weapons and smacked Conner away from Jason. Conner and Ethan gathered together and were soon joined by Kira and Trent when Billy, Adam and Devin threw them into Conner and Ethan.
At the Dino Lab, Hayley watched anxiously as the Rangers fought the dinos. At that moment, Anton and Elsa walked in.
"How is the battle going?" Anton said as he hobbled down the stairs.
"Be careful Anton!" Elsa said. "I don't want you to get hurt again, sweetie."
"They found Tommy and it seems like Mesogog found the remains of the zords."
"That's not good," Anton said. Elsa, Hayley and Anton watched the monitor to watch the battle.
"Nice work guys!" Jason said. Mesogog was furious. His dinos were losing. He knew that the dinos were no longer of use to him.
"Attack them! NOOOOOW!" Mesogog yelled as he pointed at the Rangers. The ZEO Rangers, Jason and Billy took out their blasters and Cassidy and Devin took out their weapons and combined them. The dinos hesitated for they knew that they wouldn't survive the attack. At that moment, Tommy was beginning to wake up.
"Ready!" Jason yelled. Tommy looked up and knew that they were positioned to destroy his students. "Aim!" Tommy ran in front of his students with his arms raised.
"FIRE!" The Rangers yelled.
"NNNNNOOOOO!" Tommy said as he stepped in the way deliberately.

Oh boy! Are we evil or what? Stay tuned for the next chapter.
