They quickly reached the source of the smoke in the center of the Silver Hills Shopping Centre.

"A place with lots of people, why am I not surprised?" Alex commented "How are we supposed to do this one without anyone getting hurt?

"Usually the mutants do it for us." Wes answered "Alex look out!"

Wes pushed Alex out of the way in the nick of time just before he got trampled by some frightened shoppers.

"I was wondering what took you so long." Steelix said firing a shot that scattered the three rangers.

Wes rolled and scrambled to his feet. "You won't get the drop on us again!" He yelled firing a shot at Steelix with his blaster.

The shot caught Steelix square in the chest sending him into a cement barrier. Steelix quickly righted himself and lunged at Wes. Wes spun easily out of the way and delivered a roundhouse kick aimed at Steelix's head but Steelix caught his leg and sent Wes spinning into a car.

Alex and Eric rushed Steelix slamming into his back feet first.

Steelix crashed to the ground the patch covering his mutant DNA tearing off.

"Now let's see how well you fight someone one hundred times your size." Steelix taunted.

"Q-Rex, attack the mutant." Eric ordered.

The Q-Rex lunged at Steelix and caught him by the arm. He tried to shake him off unsuccessfully.

The sky lit up and lightning cracked high above them. Wes looked up ducking a little.

"What's happening?" He asked.

"A little help from the future." Alex said smiling as a striking white zord appeared in the sky. "Wes, meet the white lightning megazord."

Alex shot up off the ground and in a flash disappeared into the megazord's chest.

Steelix shook of the Q-Rex and stood staring at the megazord. The he looked and saw Wes on the ground.

He aimed his blaster at Wes and said "Say goodbye red ranger."

Suddenly the Timeshadow flew in and hit Steelix's arm.

"Who's piloting it?" Wes thought.

"White lighting katana-blade!" Alex ordered.

The megazord spun to the right and pulled a shining katana blade from within its cape. Taking the element of surprise Alex slashed Steelix twice sending the mutant to his knees.

"Your time's up." Eric said as the Q-Rex fired a volley of missiles at the downed Steelix.

Steelix exploded in a shower of flames and sparks.
