Chapter 6 The Mutated Zords
Shadows of large beings are seen being pulled by a net, of which they were captured in within the darkened cave of despair, the evil Sinistar and her first General Dragonlord watch as the dragon warriors bring the large beings closer and closer into view. Sinistar' dark and evil face puts on a grin as she see's the beings face to face. She looks at Dragonlord and says.
Sinistar-Excellent work Dragonlord, you and your warriors have done quite well.
Dragonlord responds.
Dragonlord-Thank you Empress.
Sinistar-Now for the next and final step. And this time, I'm sure we'll defeat those Power Rangers!
Dragonlord nods with quite confidence.
Meanwhile, the day in Terra Falls brings a thunderous storm with dangerous lightning and heavy pouring rain. Nakia makes it to the school sort of dry with the exception of her totally wet and tore umbrella. She puts down her yellow umbrella and shakes her head to get some of the water out of her hair as she walks into the school. She's wearing black jeans, a white shirt, she has her hair down but will soon put it in a ponytail and she's wearing her favorite white tennis shoes with the yellow and black striped lightning bolts on the sides. Matt, tall, cute, blonde hair and blue eyed guy comes walking up from behind her as she goes to her locker, he snickers and says playfully.
Matt-Well if it isn't the rain maker, good day for ya huh?
Nakia turns around and responds.
Nakia-Oh funny Matt, very funny.
Matt laughs and says.
Matt-Catch ya in Biology Nakia.
He walks away. Soon many other students walk into the building soaking wet. Nakia notices this and says to herself as she opens her locker.
Nakia-Well at least I'm not the only one.
In Stonehenge, Myndor gets a terrible feeling that something serious has happened, so instead of wondering, he goes over to the Wizard's pool to ask if anything wrong has happened.
The wizard's pool begins to glow and speak.
Wizard Pool's-Sinistar has captured two very important beings.
Myndor-Who?
Wizard Pool-That is all we can tell you. The beings are very important to your cause, you must alert the Rangers and have them go to the cave of despair where the beings are being held before something happens to them.
Myndor-What can happen?
Wizard Pool-With Sinistar involved, anything, and you can be assured it won't be good.
Myndor-I understand.
The wizard's pool stops glowing.
Myndor-Oh dear, I wonder what Sinistar has planned now.
The trapped beings can only be seen as shadows as Dragonlord scolds them, they screech out as their answers are obviously not what Dragonlord wants as he zaps them one at a time.
The school day begins and everyone settles in. In some classes the teachers talk about what they saw the other day when the Yellow Ranger was fighting Heart Struck and others are going on with their usual lessons. Nakia is contacted by Myndor in her mind, she immediately stops the teacher from talking, and leaves the room saying its an emergency she had forgotten about and she'll serve her detention she is sure to get later on.
She walks through the halls which are totally quiet and empty now, as she makes it down to the first floor she meets up with Ryan and Zelda. Zelda is wearing a pink jean skirt, sneakers, a light blue shirt and she has her hair up. Ryan is wearing blue jeans, a red tank top and tennis shoes. Zelda asks Nakia.
Zelda-Did you get the message from Myndor?
Nakia-Yeah I did.
Ryan-Come on, we've got to get to stone henge.
Nakia-We will.
Zelda-Do you think it'll be okay to teleport from in here? I mean since its raining outside very badly.
They all look around and see no one from any direction of the hallway.
Nakia-I think it'll be all right.
Ryan-Me too.
Zelda-Okay.
They reveal their watches which are actually their morphers in disguise as well as teleporters. Ryan stands in the middle as Nakia stands next to him on the right and Zelda on the left. They touch a button on their watches at once and soon begin to glow brightly with the colors of their Ranger Powers. Just then two students come walking up from the end of the hall, they see the three glowing but can't make out who they are, their eyes practically pop out of their heads as they see the glowing turning into a band of beautiful Red, Yellow and Pink stars and then disappear.
The two guys look at each other and then shake their heads, as if it didn't happen.
The Rangers quickly make it to Stone henge, as they walk into the illusion they notice Myndor waiting to speak with them.
Nakia-What's wrong Myndor?
Myndor-Rangers, you must teleport to the cave of despair.
Zelda-Cave of despair? But why?
Myndor-Sinistar has captured two beings vital to our cause and I know she's planning to do something evil with them involved.
Ryan-Oh no.
Nakia-Okay, so we'll get them out.
Myndor also tells the Rangers as he holds out the Black and Blue star gems. But he doesn't really need to say anything since they see the star gems flashing repeatedly.
Nakia-Do you think?
Myndor-I don't know, but I do know that these star gems would not be flashing if whatever holds their powers wasn't in danger.
Zelda-It could be the new Rangers. The Black Ranger and the Blue Ranger.
Myndor-No, I don't think so.
Zelda-No?
Myndor-It might be possible, but it could be the zords.
Zelda-The zords.
Nakia-Well whatever it is, we'll get them out.
Ryan nods and Myndor says.
Myndor-I have no doubts Rangers.
Ryan-Okay so we'll teleport now, to the cave of despair.
Myndor-Just concentrate on your destination, you'll get there.
Ryan-Right.
The three stand side by side again as they once again begin to teleport. As they leave, Myndor says.
Myndor-May the power protect you.
Sinistar reappears within the dark and eerie cave, she looks at the two beings which now in view are the zords of the blue and black rangers, the dolphin zord and the centauras zord. Sinistar looks at Dragonlord and says.
Sinistar-I take it those idiotic zords won't cooperate with you! So be it! I shall cast a spell on them and make them work for me, they will destroy the Rangers and allow me to get to Myndor and the Amulet of Power!
Sinistar's eyes turn pitch black, and inside sparkles of dark stars begin to shine and massively produce a heavy beam of power which shines over the Zords. Both Zords begin to howl in pain as the beam slowly forms them into Sinistar' slaves. The Dolphin zord gets legs and hideous claws attached to its toes, as well as its face shrinking in a bit to fit a more evil atmosphere, arms and more claws appear out of the Dolphin zord as well and also the spell is causing the Dolphin zord to lose its huge size advantage by shrinking it to normal size. The Centauras Zord becomes hideously dark and filled with dark energy from head to toe, horns reveal themselves out of the opposite sides of the Centauras zord and it too loses its huge size advantage in the way of shrinking to normal size and its eyes turn pitch black as well as the Dolphin Zord's.
Sinistar laughs maniacally as she says out loud.
Sinistar-MEET THE MUTATED ZORDS! VICTORY IS MINE!
Dragonlord smirks.
Dragonlord-Shall I release them upon the city?
Sinistar-No! I'm sure the Rangers will follow them here, if they don't, then I should slap myself for not knowing them as well as I thought. But no! I know they'll be here, I can smell their determination! We'll leave them here to welcome the Rangers to their doom!
Dragonlord nods, they soon disappear. The new evil Zords lay dormant that is until the Rangers appear a few feet in front of them within the dark, eerie and moist cave.
Zelda-Okay, where do we start looking? I can't really see anything.
Nakia-Me either.
Ryan-Whoever or whatever is here is in trouble, so we have to find it, and save it.
Nakia and Zelda-Right.
They all start walking farther into the cave and notice how disgusting inside it is, finally Zelda spots two beings standing and staring towards them.
Zelda-Hey look in front of us.
Nakia-Huh?
They look in front of them and notice what Zelda has spotted. Nakia says.
Nakia-Hey, are you two okay?
No response. Ryan asks.
Ryan-What's going on?
Zelda says to Nakia.
Zelda-Do you think this could be a trap?
Nakia-If it is then we're the fools of the day.
They walk closer and closer till the beings come into view, they notice the beings to be robotic like so they assume they must be their stolen zords.
Zelda-If these two creatures are the zords why aren't they huge?
Ryan-Beats me. Maybe Sinistar shrunk them.
Nakia-She probably did….Evil witch.
The zords do absolutely nothing, they stay completely still as the Rangers inspect them. As they look around them one last time, both of the Zord's bodies becomes horribly electrified therefore causing an electrical vortex of power that completely surrounds the Rangers, they scream out in agony as they are flung away from the zords in a vortex of deadly lightning. As they land on their backs on the very sharp, hard and rocky ground, Nakia remarks.
Nakia-Aw man, and I didn't think I'd get electrocuted today!
They groan out in pain. Ryan stands up and see's the beings move now and towards them but slowly, they smile as they raise their hands in attempt to summon more of their power to hurl at the Rangers, but Ryan yells at both Nakia and Zelda to get up so they can morph and try to defend themselves. Both of the girls stand up quickly and materialize their star morphers.
They swing their arms around once and bring their morpher wearing wrists closer to them, and all together they touch the star in the center of their morphers and yell out together.
Everyone-STAR FORCE, POWER UP!
All three of the morphers flash with the colors of red, yellow and pink, this creates a beautiful star firework implosion, as it finally disappears, Ryan becomes the Red Ranger, Nakia becomes the Yellow Ranger and Zelda transforms into the Pink Ranger.
The Three Power Rangers now powered up and ready immediately defend themselves, materializing their weapons, they all leap up into the air and attempt to attack the zords, but the mutated zords prove to be too much, they zap them with an enormous amount of dark lightning power which sends them flying away a bit, they then rush into the other end of the cave. The Rangers, still determined use their weapons again. The Red Ranger holds up his sword and says.
Red Ranger-BLAZING SWORD!
Soon fire surrounds his sword completely, and then the Yellow Ranger prepares her stunner, she fires many yellow energy blasts towards the zords as she yells out.
Yellow Ranger-HYDRA STUNNER!
The Pink Ranger finally sends a blast of striking arrows towards the zords as she says.
Pink Ranger-WIND BOW!
The Rangers efforts prove to be non effective.
Yellow Ranger-What do we do now? I mean if those are zords, and if they're on our side, shouldn't we be able to talk to them?
Red Ranger-I don't know, I don't know at all.
Pink Ranger-Maybe we can try to reach them.
The Zords attack the Rangers again. The Centauras zord picks up the Red Ranger and knocks him down with a super thunderous punch, he groans out in agony as he feels really bad, and then the mutated dolphin zord blasts the Pink and Yellow Rangers with a high pitched stunning tone, they cover their ears but soon they are knocked down as well.
Sinistar watches through her cauldron, she laughs with utter evil happiness as she see's the Rangers will finally be destroyed, she hopes.
Sinistar-The Rangers will finally be gone, and I can continue my work, find Myndor and get the Amulet of Power! Hahaha!
After the Yellow Ranger and the Pink Ranger are sent crashing into the ground again thanks to the Dolphin zord the powerful Centauras zord immediately raises itself using its hind legs for it will attempt to crush both of the Rangers with its two front legs. They gasp and yell out.
Yellow Ranger-NO!
Pink Ranger-PLEASE DON'T!
The Red Ranger growls and uses his sword again, he sends out another fire blast and this time it works as it hit's the centauras zord and knocks it away.
Myndor watches the battle as well and begins to feel very bad for his Rangers, suddenly the wizard's pool begins to glow, he walks over to it and sees an image of two people he knows in his own time, he asks.
Myndor-Wizard's Pool is this a sign?
Wizard's Pool-It is indeed a sign from the stars. They have known all along who are the chosen ones for the black and blue star gems.
Myndor-Then I must travel back in time to secure their help.
Wizard's Pool-Yes.
Myndor-But it will not be easy, I had asked for their help during the war and they flat out refused.
Wizard's Pool-Perhaps now is the time to better persuade them.
Myndor-I shall do my best.
He asks the Wizard's pool to create a portal leading back to his own time and place. Once the portal is created, Myndor walks into the beautiful multicolored portal, as soon as he does, he finds out it has given him a very short trip as he walks through it to find himself back in his own time and place.
He sighs with a bit of happiness and says when he notices the land looking much better than when he had left.
Myndor-Ahh the stars have healed Cawdor from the scars of war. Most pleasant!
The beautiful green grass brings back memories, he looks around and see's his castle still standing tall, and noticing the peaceful atmosphere brings a tear to his eye. But no time to get sentimental, he travels through the land and finds a man about 18 years old shoeing a horse in a nearby village. This man is named Joshua, he's 6'1 in height, weighs 165 pounds, has a fairly muscular build, brown hair and hazel eyes. Now Joshua is in long overalls and wearing a blacksmith's covering over his overalls.
He stops shoeing the horse when he hears a familiar voice.
Myndor-Joshua.
Joshua slowly turns around and before he even looks at Myndor he says.
Joshua-I told you before, I am not a warrior!
Myndor-You control one of the zords that was captured by Sinistar, she turned them evil and their attacking your comrades now and winning, and if you don't get to them, they will be destroyed and Sinistar will have her wish!
Joshua-I told you. I'm not a warrior, there's nothing I can do.
Myndor-There's plenty you can do, you're just frightened, but you can overcome it. People's lives are at stake and you can help fight against the evil. I am pleading with you please Joshua, help us!
Joshua-I.
He stops and thinks.
Joshua-But I am not sure, what if I don't adjust to the time you speak of?
Myndor-It's okay, you'll be fine. Will you take the blue star gem? Will you accept its power and help your comrades?
Joshua thinks for a while again, he puts his head down and then looks back up at Myndor, he nods and says.
Joshua-Yes. I will help.
Myndor-Thank goodness.
Joshua leaves but not before asking a friend to finish his job, they soon find Michael, who's at his cottage, tending to his garden in the back area. Michael is a gentle person, he's 18 years old and exciting but also not so sure about becoming a star Ranger. Also fairly muscular, Michael has pitch black hair, a cute smile, blonde hair, and brown eyes, he stands at 5'9 and weighs 150 pounds, and today he's wearing a pair of black pants made by the tailor for a low price and a tore off white shirt which shows off his muscles a bit.
Michael says to Myndor and Joshua immediately after Myndor explains the grave situation.
Michael-NO!
Myndor pleads.
Myndor-You don't understand the situation.
Michael-I do and I refuse to risk my life for people I don't even know.
Myndor-I thought you were an adventurer?
Michael-I am but I can't be a warrior, Sinistar is way too powerful.
Joshua sighs.
Myndor-I know she's powerful, that is why the star gem will give you the power and energy you need to fight her evil!
Michael-I don't know, I can't do it. I'm not confident. I like living here in my cottage all by myself and tending to my garden on sunny days like this. I like living peacefully, and let me tell you, ever since you and Sinistar left the days here have been most peaceful.
Myndor-That may be true but it still doesn't give you the right to ignore what you have been chosen to do.
Michael-I feel my life will change.
Myndor-If you and the other Rangers defeat Sinistar, you can return to your peaceful life, we all can!
Michael thinks as Myndor continues to speak about all the terrible dangers and the possible taking over if Sinistar wins this battle. He stops him from talking and responds.
Michael-All right, I will help you. I don't like the sound of anything you have said to me about Sinistar.
Myndor-You have made the right decision.
Michael-I hope so. I can't just leave though, what if someone comes by and steals my belongings?
Myndor-They won't, trust me.
Michael-Hmm. Okay, I'll trust you Myndor, but if anything happens.
He stops him from talking.
Myndor-Trust me.
Michael-Okay.
Myndor-Let us go.
Myndor leads the way back to the portal, when they get there he tells Michael and Joshua to step in, they do, and soon Myndor follows, a few seconds later they find themselves within Myndor's chamber within the illusional view of Stone Henge. The Portal quickly closes and Myndor looks into the Wizard's pool, he see's the three Rangers in terrible shape, barely able to stand.
Myndor-Oh no, they need your help very badly!
Joshua and Michael look into the Wizard's pool, they see the horrible scene and nod. Myndor gives Joshua the blue star gem and Michael the black star gem, he then says.
Myndor-Please hurry, they won't last much longer!
Joshua-Ok I just hope I can do this.
Michael-Exactly what I'm thinking about myself.
Myndor-Hold out your star gems then you will know exactly how to transform for the power within will guide you.
They both nod and hold their star gems out closely, and soon a blue streaking of lightning power starts to emerge from the gem and flow through Joshua's body and a black streak of lightning power does the same to Michael, when the power retracts back into their star gems they turn into their star morphers.
Joshua looks at Michael and he looks back at Joshua, they both nod and stand side by side. Now holding out their star morphers Joshua asks.
Joshua-You up for this now Michael?
Michael responds.
Michael-Lets get this done.
They both swing their arms around at once, and bring their star morphers close to them, then they touch the center of their star morphers which has their color coded star. Once they touch it, they both yell out.
Joshua and Michael-STAR RANGERS, POWER UP!
The star morphers start flashing and soon they produce blinding beams of power, Joshua is found within a blue beam and a small blue star appears, it attaches itself to the center of his chest and then begins to expand very quickly, as it expands Joshua's body becomes stronger, the power from the expanded star transforms Joshua into the Blue Star Force Ranger with the symbol of the Dolphin.
Next, Michael is found within a black beam and a small black star appears and attaches itself to the center of his chest and then begins to expand. As it expands Michael's body becomes stronger, and finally the power from the expanded star transforms Michael into the Black Star Force Ranger with the symbol of the Centaur.
A flash of power now takes us to the other Power Rangers who are struggling to fight back and stand their ground. They are just about to be hit again by the mutated zords when they hear two unfamiliar voices.
Blue Ranger-TRIDENT WHIRLPOOL!
Black Ranger-CANNON INNER STRENGTH!
They look behind them and see blue swirling energy and a large blast of power moving towards them, the attacks swoop over the Rangers and strike the Zords, causing a huge explosion within the cave. The Rangers are all knocked onto their backs as the explosion continues to roar. Finally as it disappears, the evil within the Zords disappear and return the zords to their normal selves. The Dolphin Zord and Centauras Zord thank the Rangers as they all stand up.
The Mighty Centaur Zord and the courageous Dolphin Zord vow that the Zords will be there when the time comes for the Rangers to use them. They disappear into the air after returning to their normal huge sizes.
The Red Ranger, Yellow Ranger and Pink Ranger look behind them, they see two new Rangers, one holding a blue trident and the other holding a black cannon. The Blue and Black Ranger uniforms are very similar to the Red Ranger's, except the Blue Ranger has the symbol of the dolphin on one side of his suit and the Black Ranger has the symbol of the mighty Centaur on his. The three walks over to the new Rangers and say one by one.
Red Ranger-Hey, thanks a lot. And welcome. I'm Ryan.
Yellow Ranger-You saved our butts. And I'm Nakia.
Pink Ranger-We appreciate it a lot. I'm Zelda.
Blue Ranger-Please to meet you all and don't worry about it, we're here now to help you fight against Sinistar. By the way the name's Joshua.
Black Ranger-I'm Michael. Yeah, and with all of us together, we'll defeat that witch and her followers.
The Blue Ranger turns to the Black Ranger and says.
Blue Ranger-You sound more confident now Michael.
Black Ranger-Well yeah this suit makes me feel super strong like I could do anything!
Pink Ranger-Its great to have two more Rangers on our team.
Yellow Ranger-No doubt.
Sinistar watches through her cauldron, she becomes very angry at what she just saw.
Sinistar-I don't believe it! Two new Power Rangers! And their powers are extraordinary! I must find more power to defeat them! UGH!
Back at Stone henge, the Rangers talk amongst themselves. As they talk, Myndor looks into the Wizard's Pool and says to himself.
Myndor-We have a better chance at winning this war. I hope the Rangers stay together as a team.
