Chapter 52 Unwelcome Visitors

Queen Zara returns to her deep cavern within her palace. Suddenly both the Duke and Duchess appear standing in front of her low leveled throne. The Duke speaks first.

Duke Freezor-My Queen, before you send the entire fleet, might I give you a suggestion?

Queen Zara makes a gesture that tells the Duke that she'll listen to what he has to say. So he says it.

Duke Freezor-Allow myself and my wife to travel the Universe. We'll find a new planet with rich resources quickly.

Queen Zara doesn't say anything for a minute which begins to worry the two, but then she says.

Queen Zara-Very well. But do not take too long, this planet will not last much longer.

They both nod in agreement and vow to return very soon.

Queen Zara says with a fierce tone.

Queen Zara-If you find a planet soon, attack it to test its defenses. I want to know everything about it, understand?!

They both nod once again. The Queen then says.

Queen Zara-You are dismissed!

They nod again and disappear.

Soon they both reappear out in the depths of space in search for a new planet.

Meanwhile, on earth. A beautiful sunny Saturday Afternoon arrives. Nakia sits outside of her house with her friends Zelda and Kimberly. Nakia is wearing black jeans and a yellow t shirt with comforter shoes. Zelda is wearing a pink short outer shirt with a white t shirt and blue jeans with comforter shoes. And Kimberly is wearing white jeans and a blue t shirt with black and white tennis shoes. They all start talking about guys and school but guys mostly because that's more interesting than school. But soon Kimberly brings up something that they have tried to keep their mind off ever since their last battle as Power Rangers. She gets up and lets out a huge sigh as she does a front flip, then a side flip and finally a back flip on Nakia's front lawn.

Nakia looks at her with confusion and asks.

Nakia-You okay Kim?

She responds as she looks at her friends.

Kimberly-Yeah I'm fine. But I'm sure both of you are really bored.

Nakia-Bored?

Kimberly-Yeah.

Zelda knows what she means and so does Nakia but she doesn't say anything. Zelda just gets up off of the front porch and does a cannonball flip onto the front lawn. She then says.

Zelda-Oh that felt so much better.

Nakia gets off of the porch and smiles a bit, she then turns around and leaps up off of the ground, she lands on the tip of her front roof and quickly flips backwards off of it. As she is up in the air she does many backward cannonball flips and lands right in the center of Kimberly and Zelda on her front lawn. Zelda smiles and says to her.

Zelda-Show off.

They all put their hands on each others shoulders and start giggling. They then sit back down on the front porch and talk about what they just did.

Kimberly-So you know what I meant, right?

Nakia nods and so does Zelda.

Nakia-Obviously. Its been so boring here lately especially since we have no need to use our powers anymore.

Zelda-Yeah. Being Power Rangers had its ups and downs.

Kimberly-Yeah it did, even though we almost always were on the verge of being destroyed.

Zelda-But our team was strong, so it wasn't easy to get rid of us.

Nakia-Yeah.

Nakia sighs.

Nakia-Those days are gone though. The battles, the monsters, everything.

Zelda sighs.

Kimberly-But hey we were normal people before being Power Rangers. Its not like we haven't been bored before.

Nakia-Its going to take some getting used to again.

Kimberly-That's true.

Nakia-Hey I'm going to go inside and get some sandwiches and lemonade, you bored girls want any?

Both Zelda and Kimberly say together.

Zelda and Kimberly-Yes.

Zelda asks.

Zelda-What kind of sandwiches?

Nakia-Turkey, Ham and Cheese.

Kimberly-Mmmm.

Zelda-Sounds good.

Nakia gets up and walks into her house as she says.

Nakia-Yeah and later on we should really study again.

The Local Weather Television Station's cameraman Joey leaves the area in order to find something interesting to bring back to his bosses. He searches the city but doesn't find a single thing that looks interesting enough to film.

Duke and the Duchess search all over the Universe, they find lifeless planets with barely enough energy to sustain a small portion of anything. They are just about to give that is until the Duchess spots a beautiful looking blue world. She tells her husband as they continue to fly towards the planet.

Duchess Icikla-That blue world is most beautiful. I bet it has tons of useable resources that we can turn into energy for us.

Duke Freezor looks at the planet very closely and responds.

Duke Freezor-You are correct. I sense strong energy here. Very strong.

Duchess Icikla-Lets attack it and seize it for our Queen!

Duke Freezor-Yesss.

The two land in the middle of no where as they land on the planet earth. And as soon as they do land a chilly wind appears and starts to hover over the dry and hot land. Meanwhile, Nakia and her friends continue to sit outside on her front porch and eat their sandwiches. After Nakia bites into her sandwich she immediately gets a chill. She says to herself.

Nakia-Hmm, where did that chill come from..

She doesn't pay much more attention to it. Instead she just talks and laughs with her two best friends.

The Duke and Duchess examine the land they have just landed in which happens to be a very dry desert, in fact, the very same desert Myndor took refuge in. The Duchess walks around and starts sensing a very strong energetic presence. She says to her husband as he too inspects the land.

Duchess Icikla-My dear sweet husband… As you probably already know, there seems to be a very vast amount of energy here. Or at least there was.

Duke Freezor-Yes, but its faint.

They both nod in agreement.

Duke Freezor-Very faint. The energy is strong but fading.

Duchess Icikla-So what do we do now?

Duke Freezor-First we continue to inspect this place. It seems to be most worthy to live in.

Duchess Icikla-But what about testing the defenses?

Duke Freezor-There's no one here to interrupt. But just in case, we'll be ready for them.

Back at Nakia's house, she has placed Lightwing inside of a large cage that she keeps in a room next to hers. Lightwing is sleeping now, that is until he senses an alien force. The beautiful white dove immediately awakens and disappears in a sparkle of power. Meanwhile, a very tired Joey drives around the city of Terra Falls but still hasn't been able to find anything interesting, nothing at all.

Back at Nakia's. Lightwing reappears outside where he finds the girls still talking, laughing and eating. Kimberly is the first to see Lightwing and so when she's finished with her sandwich she says.

Kimberly-Lightwing, where'd you come from?

The dove starts speaking in a worrisome tone.

Lightwing-Power Rangers, there is a very high intense level of evil energy here in the city.

Nakia-What? Are you sure?

Lightwing-I am positive.

Nakia says to herself.

Nakia-That must have been the very strange chill I felt..

Zelda-Do you know where its coming from?

Lightwing-Yes, the high evil energy levels are coming from the place of which I appeared from.

All three girls look at each other and say together.

Nakia, Zelda and Kimberly-The desert!

Nakia-Come on, we've got to get there now!

Zelda-What about contacting Ryan?

Nakia-There's no time.. Besides he's working now, if we really need him we'll contact him.

They all nod in agreement.. Soon they rush off very quickly and soon make it to the desert of which they never thought they'd have to return and do battle. They search around together and immediately start feeling an unusual cold condition.

Kimberly-Isn't it kinda cold for the desert?

Zelda looks at Kimberly and says.

Zelda-Yeah. Its cold..

Nakia says in a serious tone.

Nakia-Freezing.

Duchess Icikla appears from behind the girls along with her husband. They start laughing to surprise them.

The girls turn around and notice the two alien icy beings.

Nakia-Who are you?!

Duke Freezor says in a snotty tone.

Duke Freezor-Is this the defense this planet has to offer?

Duchess Icikla-They're nothing but puny defenseless humans!

Kimberly-We're not puny defenseless humans!

Duchess Icikla-Looks like it to me.

Zelda-Yeah well looks can be deceiving!

Nakia-You're not welcome here, so get outta here while you still have a chance!

Both the Duke and Duchess start laughing. They stop as the Duke says.

Duke Freezor-No one's going to make us leave here. Especially since we've found such a suitable planet to take over and inhabit!

Duchess Icikla-Oh yes, this planet will become a dead world of ice very soon!

Kimberly-Not if we can help it!

Duchess Icikla-Too bad you can't!

The Duke and Duchess step back a few feet, they both then materialize their powerful ice swords and cross them together, they look at each other lovingly as their swords release many powerful icy strikes towards the three girls. They scream out as the dark ice energy causes the ground under them to explode.

Nakia-UGH!

Zelda-UHH!

Kimberly-AHH!

The Duke and Duchess start laughing once again. Nakia frustratingly gets up, and soon her friends follow. She then steps forward and looks back at them.

Nakia-Looks like its time to go back to work..

They both nod and say as their hands start glowing with their respected Ranger colors.

Nakia looks back ahead and says.

Nakia-READY?!

Zelda and Kimberly respond.

Zelda and Kimberly-READY!

They stick out their right arms out to their left sides, then they swing them around once to bring them back to their right sides. Now they pull their arms back and push them forward as they all yell out together.

Everyone-STARLIGHT POWER!

The three girls find themselves within an essence of the Universe. Now, a yellow star appears and starts swirling all Nakia therefore leaving its yellow power residue on her body, it then attaches itself to the center of Nakia's chest and this causes an explosion to arise from under Nakia's body. As the explosion covers her body completely a transparent image of a Yellow Wild Cat appears. The explosion disappears as the yellow wild cat image forms onto Nakia's body. Her body starts glowing brightly yellow, and as it dies down Nakia is completely transformed into the Yellow Star Force Power Ranger.

Next, a pink star appears and swirls all around Zelda, it then leaves its pink power residue all over her body as it now attaches itself to the center of her chest. An explosion flares up and covers Zelda completely as an image of her pink panther appears. The explosion dies down as the image forms all onto Zelda's body. Afterwards she starts glowing brightly pink as she has now become the Pink Star Force Power Ranger.

Last but not least, a white star appears and swirls all around Kimberly's body. After leaving its power residue it attaches itself to the center of Kimberly's chest which soon after all of this causes an explosion that soon disappears after a transparent image of Kimberly's white phoenix appears and forms onto her body. Her body then glows brightly white as she has been transformed into the White Star Force Power Ranger.

The two evil beings stop laughing and immediately attack the Rangers. The two slash their swords together and bring on a fierce and powerful strike against the three Rangers, they all scream out in pain as they land on the desert sand.

Yellow Ranger-UGH UHH!

Pink Ranger-UGHH!

White Ranger-UHH!

Duke Freezor stands next to his wife and says in a snotty tone.

Duke Freezor-Pathetic weaklings! So easy to defeat! And now we'll take your world!

There's a small shard of glass not able to be seen and that's because its buried in the sand but its located right next to the spot where the Ice Duke plunges his ice sword. The sword starts to generate a tremendous amount of fiery ice energy into the ground and this causes a huge reaction. The reaction starts to die down as the entire ground slowly transforms into pure ice.

The Power Rangers get up but slip a bit due to the ground turning into ice.

White Ranger-We've got to stop them now! We can't let them do this!

Just then, Joey drives up to an area close to the desert, he gets out of his car because it starts to feel unusually cold and he wants to investigate since it seems like it might bring out an interesting story to bring back to his bosses. He gets his camera out and starts walking. As he walks he notices the ground under him turning into ice.

Joey-What the?!

He looks up and doesn't see anything in the sky.

Joey-Strange. No clouds, yet it feels like its getting colder by the minute and the ground is..

He slips and drops his camera..

Joey-UGH!

Joey manages to get up and pick up his camera, luckily there's no damage to his camera he thinks. Anyways he starts walking slowly till he reaches the scene where he witnesses two alien forces and the Power Rangers in battle.

Joey hides behind a froze cactus bush and tries to keep himself calm, but he really cant since its getting really cold.

Joey-Oh man what a great story this would make!

He tries to turn on his camera but something's jamming its switch.

Joey-What now!? Uhh!

The Yellow and Pink Rangers are fighting Duke Freezor while the White Ranger tries to fight off Duchess Icikla.

The two Rangers use their weapons but soon they are found to be frozen. They let down their guard slightly and the Duke see's this as his chance. He leaps up into the sky with his ice sword in hand, he charges it up with a super cold force and delivers two very cold icy strikes. The two Rangers yell out as their suits start to let off small explosions.

Yellow and Pink Rangers-AHHH!

Soon their bodies begin to freeze up.

Yellow Ranger-OH NO!

Duchess Icikla blasts the White Ranger with a super cold freezing beam. The beam strikes her and immediately starts to freeze her up.

When all hope has seemed to be lost, the Red Ranger immediately flips into action with his mighty sword that holds the power of the mighty element fire. He lands right in between the Duke and the Duchess and soon he starts to fight. He swings his sword in an attempt to hit them both but they move out of his way. The Duke rushes back over to him and tries to swipe him with his ice sword but the Red Ranger is much too quick. He rolls out of the way and as soon as he gets into the spot he wants, he powers up his fire sword and attacks again.

The Red Ranger takes a swipe at the Duke's icy head with his sword but the Duke ducks down and immediately strikes the Red Ranger in the stomach with his sword, and something you wouldn't of thought happens. Yes the Red Ranger ended up getting hit but right before he's knocked away in a twirling leap, he gives the Duke a powerful strike with his weapon.

The fire power from the Red Ranger's sword causes the Duke to drop his weapon. He starts gagging as his body starts to change from Blue to Red and back again.. The Duchess rushes over to his side to try and help him. The Red Ranger free's the other Rangers from their icy prisons. They soon regroup with the Red Ranger in the middle front, the Pink and Yellow Rangers on his opposite sides and the White Ranger behind them. He says to their obvious new enemies.

Red Ranger-Who ever sent you here, tell em this planet is guarded by us..

The others follow his lead, he raises his sword above his head as it starts glowing fiercely red, the Yellow and Pink Rangers squat down and stick out their hands in a clawing gesturing sense and finally the White Ranger leaps up and hovers over them as she sticks out both of her arms out on their opposite sides to resemble a bird flying. They soon say as images of their star creatures appear and each Ranger glows brightly with their respected colors. With this amazing event the entire sheet of ice covering almost everything starts to melt away..

Power Rangers-POWER RANGERS, STAR FORCE!

The Duchess manages to calm down her husband's chain reaction and soon they disappear into the sky vowing revenge…

The Power Rangers relax now. The Yellow Ranger moves over and says to the Red Ranger.

Yellow Ranger-Thanks for saving us.

He responds.

Red Ranger-Lightwing told me.. Looks like we have a new enemy to worry about.

Pink Ranger-Well we were just complaining about getting no action around here earlier.

White Ranger-Yeah, so its good to be needed again.

Red Ranger-I guess so. But we need to get serious.

Yellow Ranger-We are serious, don't worry.

He nods.

Joey has captured the entire scene on his camera and watches as the Power Rangers teleport away from the desert area. He looks at his camera to make sure the film inside hasn't been damaged.

Joey-Whoa, this is going to be good. I'll get my pay and then some..

He notices something on the ground, a few feet away from him, something glowing.. He puts down his camera but not before making sure its safe and secure.. He walks closer to the glowing item and soon finds that it looks like a broken piece of glass.

Joey-Hmm, perhaps some sort of alien artifact or something..

The small piece of glass sends out a horrific charge of dark power that knocks Joey off his feet. His body starts to surge and he looks like someone's choking him as he gasps and gags continuously..

As all of this happens, the glass starts to form into something, its unknown but you should all know that it won't be any good for the Rangers..
