Previously on the Power Rangers Zeo: When a new evil beyond the imagination of mere humans begins an assault on the earth. The rangers must gain new powers to protect their home.
Their quest will begin by searching the ruins of the Lunar Palace, where the Zeo Crystal is said to be hidden, under the throne room, in a cave known as the cave of deception. Once inside the Cave of Deception, Tommy comes face to face, with the Evil Green Ranger.
"Oh shut-up, you know you can be a very boring person to talk to."
"Just leave me alone, you're not real so I have nothing to worry about," Tommy replied moving again. But he was again stopped when the rest of his team, minus the White Rangers, stood in front of him. All of them had their weapons in hand. "Ok, what the hell is this?"
"What should have been, you were born evil, but that stupid bitch took you way from all of that. This is what would have been if it was Tomias she took and not you," the Green Ranger replied, walking over to the other eleven Rangers. "It could have easily have been him that she had taken, you do know this don't you?"
"Yeah right, there's no way that bitch would have picked me. That damn woman only saw a monster when she looked at me, that's all I was to her," Tomias called from Tommy's side. For the most part, he looked better then he had before, though his right arm was still broken. To both men surprise, the White Ranger appeared behind the twelve others.
"Well, she does have good reason to call you that now doesn't she?" the Green Ranger said coldly.
"NO, she does not! Sure he might be able to transform into a dragon, but that doesn't make him a monster!" Tommy yelled, making all the Rangers jump a bit. Tomias looked at him for a moment, but said nothing.
All but the Green Ranger vanished. "Well done," was all he side before he, too, vanished. The two brothers looked at each other for a moment, shocked and confused. Tommy started to walk again, not wanting to waste any more time.
"I meant what I said, if she show you that why, it's her problem." Tommy said not turning back to see if Tomias was still standing there. "Just though you would like to know that." he added walking into another part of the cave, sitting on an alter was the Zeo Crystal.
"How long is this going to take?" Jason asked, holding Kim in his arms. The other eleven Rangers, along with Trey and Andy sat around the Power Chamber waiting for Tommy to get back. Alpha was running check on the repairs while Chris stood looking at them.
Like Jason and Kim, most of the Rangers were sitting close to someone. Alex was sitting by Jack, Aisha by Billy, Trini by Andy, Catherine by Trey, while Zack, Adam, and Rocky sat by each other.
"I'm unsure of, how long it's going to take him. We're just going to have to wait and see if the force field, let him get to the crystal." Zordon replied.
Before anyone could say anything, a stream of white light appeared in the center of the Chamber. A young woman appeared after the light was gone. She had an outfit much like Trey's, but looked more like a dress then anything.
"Trialia, why are you here?" Trey asked, rising to his feet. He had made sure to contact her when he had located Tommy. He had told her that he was staying there to help them. She smiled a little before replying.
"Mothers asking about Aunt Lillia, she has not contacted us in a long time," she replied, looking at the faces of Trey's friends. Most of them gave her dark looks.
"Well you can tell her, that she's dead. Lillia joined forces with Rita," Catherine replied not looking at Trialia. "The two of them attacked Earth, drawing us and Zedd out onto the battle field."
For a moment or two, Trialia just stood there, looking shocked and confused. She then turned back to where Zordon was. "This can't be true, why would she betray us?" she asked in a whisper.
"I'm afraid, Trialia, that it is true. From what she had said during the battle, she had changed sides a long time ago. Dark Specter had shown her something, though she wouldn't tell us what. There was still some good in her, she never once brought herself to attack her youngest son. Tomias, on the other hand, was a different story," Zordon replied.
"Hell ya it was, she and Rita almost killed him," Tommy's voice spoke up. He had teleported in behind Alex and Jack while Zordon was speaking. "Thanks to that damned bitch, he can't heal himself any more and has to worry about turning into a dragon, more then before," he added sharply.
"How can you say that about your own mother?" Trialia asked, beginning to tear up. All the Rangers got the their feet and looked at Tommy, surprised to see him back so soon, that's when not just the ranger but Trey, Andy, and Trialia saw the Zeo Crystal in Tommy's left hand.
"What kind of mother would call her own son a monster, huh? Sure I can see why she sent me away, but hell, she turned her back on me later on didn't she?" Tommy replied coldly. "I can tell you, don't ever say her name in front of me ever again, as of now I have no mother."
"All right," Trialia replied, looking at Tommy for a moment, then to Trey. "I'm sorry if I came at a bad time. Trey, mom and dad what to know when you're coming home?"
"I was going to help Tommy and Jack, and the Rangers protect Earth for a little while, and I would like to get to know my cousins a little more too," Trey said with a smile.
"Oh, all right. I'll go back home and tell mother and father that you're going to be staying here and helping everyone out. Make sure you contact them every once in a while could you? You know how they can be," she said, not letting him reply before teleporting away.
"Well, that was confusing and weird. So, what happened up there anyway?" Alex asked. "Who's going to be the ones to use the Crystals?"
"Nothing really important," Tommy replied, hoping no one would see past his lie. "So beside Trialia showing up, what have you all be doing?" he asked with a smile.
"We all sat here like a bunch of morons. Just kidding about the moron part," Zack replied with a grin. Everyone shared a good laugh.
"Tommy, would you hand the crystal over to Alpha, we need to scan it so we can begin working on the Zords, that you well be using," Zordon said and Tommy quickly did as he was told.
"Your Majesty, everything is going as planned. The Lunar Palace has been destroyed, and as you ordered, a team of cogs searched the ruins and found several bodies," Klank told his King.
Mondo had been looking at the stars at the moment. "Good, have the bodies been identified?" he asked without turning to face Klank.
"No sir, the bodies that were found are damage beyond identifying. From the loads they're bring back, the bodies are in pieces and will take several days to put back thought." Klank answered.
"Send a monster down to Earth. I want to see the so called Rangers that defeated Zedd so easily," Mondo ordered. Klank stood there for a moment before bowing his head and leaving the room. "Is there anything more you can tell me about the Rangers?" Mondo asked.
"Yes, they are lead by one of Zedd's sons," a voice replied. A few moments later, two figures walked out of the shadows, both human in nature. One female, the other male. The male had red hair, and light blue eyes, while the female had brown hair and brown eyes. "Oh, and I doubt that the bodies your cogs found are them. Zedd is not as stupid as he looks."
"I'm sure he's not," Mondo replied, turning to face the two of them. "But I still don't understand why you're helping me, he is your father after all?"
"We don't get along much. If memory serves, you're having a similar problem with your elder son, correct?" the man replied. "Out of all the children my father has, only two of them follow him. My twin sister, and older brother, which you can get rid of very easily. Due to the Nimmion virus, he has become weaker then he was. He can no longer heal himself, or use too much of his power. If he does, he will become the dragon for the last time."
"Oh, I had thought this was your sister," Mondo replied, looking at the pair of them for a long moment before continuing to speak. "So, she must be your wife?"
"Yes she is, but during the last battle between my mother, Lillia, Zedd, and the Rangers, we found out that she was also my niece," The man again answered. "But we really don't care about what the people of Earth think about this little taboo," he added. The woman smiled coldly.
"Alpha, have you finished scanning the Zeo Crystal?" Zordon asked. Alpha answered with a nod, turning to face the twelve rangers. "Rangers, Please line up in a row, two if need be."
The Rangers line up in two rows on other side of Alpha. In a flash, the Zeo Crystal was no longer in Alpha's hands, but above five of the Rangers. Pink was above Kimberly's head, Yellow was above Trini, Blue was above Rocky, Green to Adam, while Red went to Tommy.
"What about the rest of us?" Jason asked, looking at Tommy coldly for a moment, before adding, "Why have all the guys changed color?"
"The Zeo Crystal chose their owner much like some of the power coins. Has for way the color change, while in morphin Rocky held gold, and now has blue, it's easy to see why, when he was the Gold Ranger Rocky, was fearful of his chouse to become a Ranger, know him much like Billy, his able to build whatever he puts his mind too. In short their colors change has they themselves change." Zordon replied. "In time the remaining shared of the Zeo Crystal should become active, when this happens one of you should become Rangers again, but for know I think, you all should remain friends, it's the bond you all share, that makes you a great team."
Before anyone could say anything more, that alarms sound. "Oh ai yai yai yai yai! Mondo has sent down a monster, it's attacking the business distract." Alpha said turning to the rangers.
"Rangers be careful, Mondo isn't afraid to turn everything and anything into a machine." Zordon told them. The five rangers nodded. "May the power protect you."
"It's Morphin Time!"
"Zeo Ranger One, Pink"
"Zeo Ranger Two, Yellow"
"Zeo Ranger Three, Blue"
"Zeo Ranger Four, Green"
"Zeo Ranger Five, Red"
When the Rangers arrived in the business district, there were people running left and right. Cogs were attacking people has they ran until, that is, they saw the Zeo Rangers. That's when they turned their attacks to them. The Rangers split up, all of them taking five or six cogs a piece. After several minutes, all of the cogs were gone, leaving the Rangers looking at a monster.
"Ok, we're fighting a walking, talking toilet," Rocky said, looking at the monster. It was true, the monster did look like a toilet. "And all this time, I thought Zedd and Rita made the stupidest looking monsters, boy was I wrong," he added, making the four other Rangers laugh a bit before calling their weapons.
"You'll pay for that Blue Ranger," the monster replied, sending a stream of water at Rocky which hit him square in the chest, sending him flying several feet in the air and into a tree. Before the monster realized it, both the Green and Red Rangers were right behind him, about ready for the attack.
"Zeo Ranger One, Power Kick!" Kim called out. She jumped up into the air before sending a roundhouse kick to the monster's face, which sent it backward and into the attacks of the two male Rangers.
"Zeo Ranger Four, Power Punch!" Adam followed behind Kim, punching the monster several times and, shortly after, Tommy attacked with his sword.
"It's Time for a Gold Rush!" Trey's voice came from where Rocky was just getting back to his feet. Tommy, Adam, Trini, and Kim jumped out of the way before the attack hit the monster, making it explode.
After the flames cleared, all that reminded was a pile of rubble. That's when another machine showed up. "Around and around you go," Klank called, sending a smaller machine at the rubble. Within moments, the monster was standing again, MegaZord sized.
Rocky and Trey ran up to the other four. "Billy and Alpha finished building the Zords. Me, Alex, and Andy helped as best we could," Trey told them. "They're ready now." The five of them nodded.
"I'll destroy you all!" The monster called down to the Rangers.
Tommy ignored him and looked at the others, "Everyone ready?"
"Zeo Zords, Power Up!" they chimed in unison.
From the mountain where the Zords were kept, a cannon shot out. From the cannon came the 5 Zeo Zords. The Rangers jumped into their Zords, and soon the Zeo Megazord was completed. "Let's send this guy back to Mondo in pieces!" Kat exclaimed.
The battle raged on for a few minutes, and the Rangers were taking a beating. "We're down to 50 power!" Adam said, looking at the screen.
"Then let's try the power sword," Tommy told them. Within moments, the sword was in the left had of the Megazord. A few minutes later, the monster was destroyed for the second time.
Later that day, the Rangers were at the Youth Center, drinking sodas, the five of them telling the others about the battle. They had all arrived shortly after returning to the Power Chamber. "So that's about it?" Rocky replied happily.
"So they're bigger push over then Zedd and Rita?" Jason asked. Taking a drink of his Mountain Dew, Rocky just nodded. Kim and Trini were talking about something to Aisha, Alex, and Catherine, while Tommy was talking to Jack and Trey.
Somewhere in the mountains of Angle Grove, Lord Zedd and his forces of evil had made an underground palace. Tomias lay on a cot with Nephilim sitting by his side. Zedd stood by the door. "Sitting there won't make him heal any faster," he told her.
"I'm just giving him my support, something I've seen the Humans do," she replied, turning to look at him. "And before you start, I'm just trying to get on his good side. You know… after what my mother did to him," she added softly.
"He doesn't blame you," Zedd replied, getting up off the doorframe. There was a noise form the cot that made the two of them stop talking. After a few minutes, Tomias didn't move. "I'll talk to you later," Zedd said, leaving the room.
Once Zedd was out of the room, Nephilim turned to look back at her brother. "You can open your eyes now, father's gone," she said. Within moments, Tomias opened his left eye.
"How long did you know I was awake?" he asked her. Opening the other eye, he moved around a bit before finally getting to a sitting position.
"About fifteen minutes or so," she replied softly. "How are you feeling?" she asked, hugging him a little.
"Sore, but fine just the same. Father was telling you the truth when he said I didn't blame you," he told her.
