Chapter 53 Surprises

Joey's body start surging massively as unknown power starts to emerge from the glass. The power forms into a shadowy form with only two bright yellow eyes in its front center. The shadow looks down at Joey as it rises above him and says in a demonic raspy tone.

Unknown Being-Your world shall feel the wrath of my master very soon.

Joey's body stops surging. He looks up and responds in a weak manner.

Joey-What…are…you?

The Unknown being laughs and says.

Unknown Being-You and the rest of your pathetic species will find out when the time is right. And now to call on the beings who woke me..

It starts laughing louder and louder as it rises up high into the sky and then disappears.. Joey tries to stand up but he just falls back onto the ground.

Joey-Ugh! I've..got..to..get..help!

The Shadowy being leaves the earth's atmosphere and starts to travel throughout the Universe.

Meanwhile back on the slowly dying ice planet. Queen Zara is informed of Duke Freezor's and Duchess Icikla's failure. She sits deep within her cavern and awaits their arrival. Soon they appear before her. She says nothing, instead she just stares them down and waits for them to speak. The Duchess is the first to say something.

Duchess Icikla-My Queen. We attempted to take the planet earth for our own.. But we were attacked.

Queen Zara says in a deep dark tone.

Queen Zara-Attacked? By whom?!

Duchess Icikla-They call themselves Power Rangers.

Queen Zara-Power Rangers.. Hmm.. I heard of them..

Duchess Icikla-We had three of them but when the fourth showed up, the tables turned.

Queen Zara-Do you realize that you must capture a planet with rich resources before this planet is completely gone?!

Duchess Icikla-Yes, we do realize this.. But.

She is cut off..

Queen Zara-BUT WHAT?!

Duchess Icikla backs down a bit, but she answers.

Duchess Icikla-We need more power.

Before the Queen has a chance to answer, they hear a strange voice coming from the entrance of the Queen's cavern. The voice gets stronger as the being moves closer to them.

Queen Zara-Who is that?

The being appears before them and says.

Unknown Being-I can help you..

Queen Zara exclaims.

Queen Zara-WHO ARE YOU?!

The Unknown Being answers.

Unknown Being-I am a messenger, from a very powerful force.

Queen Zara-Explain yourself!

Unknown Being-I just did. And like I said.. I can help you fight and destroy the Power Rangers.

Queen Zara-What do you know?

Unknown Being-Lets just say I dealt with them from time to time.

Queen Zara-Then why haven't you defeated them?

Unknown Being-They are not easy to defeat. But there are only four of them now, not six. So it will be much easier.

Queen Zara-And for your help, what is it that you want in return?

Unknown Being-Only thing I want is to see those Rangers suffer and DIE!

Queen Zara-I don't trust you.. You must earn that right.

Unknown Being-Don't worry. I only want to see the Rangers finished off.

Queen Zara-We shall see if you are worthy..

The Queen instructs both of her warriors to go along with the Unknown Being to attack earth and capture it..

On earth, Zelda and Nakia visits Ryan at his new downtown job as a sales associate for the local Music Emporium. Nakia is wearing a pair of yellow jeans and a black tank top, her hair is up in a pony tail today and she's also wearing her white tennis shoes. Zelda has on a black tights and a pink t shirt, her hair is down and she has on pink comforter shoes.

They notice a lot of people in the store and wonder if now is the right time to talk to Ryan about Zelda's idea which is to ask Chet to take the Black Star Gem and become the new Black Ranger.

Ryan comes out of the back room with special orders as the customers continue to wait. The two see that he is really busy so they decide not to bother him. Zelda says to Nakia.

Zelda-I've got to go and meet up with Chet in the park.. I told him that I needed to talk to him about something and its almost time.

Nakia-Okay. Call if anything goes wrong.

Zelda-Wrong?

Nakia-Yeah, new enemies.

Zelda-Okay, will do.

They nod and Zelda leaves the store. As she walks over to the main park in the downtown area, she takes out the black star gem from her left pocket on her t shirt. She stares at it and watches it glow a bit.

Zelda-I hope Chet will understand and accept this. We're going to need all the help we can get.

Meanwhile, a very weak Joey manages to make it back to his job. When he gets there he finds it completely empty. He looks around and see's nothing except for Jeremy who's in Jenny's office and typing something on her computer. Joey walks in but slowly. Jeremy doesn't notice him, all he's seemingly interested in is typing. Joey sits down and looks relieved to have a seat. He says to him in a weak tone.

Joey-Jeremy. You won't believe… this.. But I recorded…it. And its. In my car.

Jeremy looks at Joey and see's what a mess he's in..

Jeremy-What happened to you?

Joey-I saw the Power Rangers..

Jeremy-Power Rangers?

Jeremy stops typing and completely focuses on Joey.

Joey-Yeah, I recorded the action. Maybe we can.. Use..

He groans out.

Jeremy-You okay?

Joey-Not really, ugh!

Jeremy says to him in a serious tone.

Jeremy-Nothing will work for us now. They cut everything off. The time, everything. So we have to move on.

Joey-What.. Do ..you .. Mean?

Jeremy-Our bosses sold this place to someone and he's going to have it torn down. We all have to look for other jobs.

Joey-Oh..man!

At the park, Chet shows up later than Zelda. He's wearing a black t shirt and blue shorts, he's also wearing black and white tennis shoes. They take a seat on top of a park table and immediately begin talking, well Zelda starts talking to be more precise. No one's around so Zelda feels more secure just in case some evil beings decide to show up and attack.

Just then, the evil forces leave the icy planet after the Duke regains his strength. The Unknown being if you have not guessed already has no intentions of really helping out her icy comrades, no, all it wants is to get them out of the way along with their Queen and the rest of their icy species so it can do what it really wants to do.

Back at the park. Zelda shows Chet the beautiful black starlight gem. He looks at it and says in astonishment but also his macho ness comes out.

Chet-You want to give me a gem? I'm not into jewelry.

Zelda-No its not that.

Chet-Then what is it?

Zelda-I need to ask you something.

Chet-What is it?

Before Zelda has the chance to ask, a mighty blast of icy power emerges from the center of the sky and zaps her hand. As it starts freezing, she screams out and drops the black starlight gem.

Zelda-UGH!

Chet exclaims and comes to her aid.

Chet-Hey, you all right?

He takes a hold of her hand and stares at it.

Chet-What in the world is this? Ice?

Zelda says in a painful tone.

Zelda-I need you to take the black starlight gem and use its power to transform into the Black Starlight Power Ranger!

Chet-What?!

Zelda-We need help! And I need you to do this.. Please.

The three evil beings appear out the sky and land on the ground next to Chet and Zelda. Chet exclaims.

Chet-WHAT'S THIS NOW!?

Zelda's Ranger energy starts activating and it quickly dissolves the ice on her hand. She moves over to pick up the black starlight gem but the Duke and the Duchess combine their icy swords to create a powerful icy energy blast that soon emerges and strikes the gem. The resulting impact cracks the black starlight gem. Zelda falls onto her knees in dismay.

Zelda-NOOO! This can't be happening!

Duke Freezor starts laughing.

Duke Freezor-Aww, look what we did.. This is hilarious!

Zelda looks at up them as she stands up.

Zelda-You won't get away with this!

Duchess Icikla-Your Ranger energy is so strong that it led us right to you. Now we're going to destroy you and take over your richly resourced planet!

The Unknown Being says in a serious way.

Unknown Being-ENOUGH OF THIS! Time to pay!

Powerful golden beams emerge from its two dead eyes as it says.

Unknown Being-DEMON KNIGHTS, ARISE!

The golden beams strike the ground and cause a huge explosion which makes Zelda and Chet fall onto the ground.

Zelda and Chet-UGH!

The explosion transforms into a hoard of ugly crusty looking creatures with the color of pitch darkness. They have no mouths, only yellow eyes that allow them to see and generate their power. Their arms are long and their hands are equipped with long and ugly claws. They have long tails as well.

Zelda looks up and see's the very large army of evil looking creatures. She says to herself.

Zelda-I've got to get help.

Lightwing, the beautiful white dove appears next to Zelda and Chet. He begins to say.

Lightwing-Don't worry. For the destruction of the black starlight gem only brings life to another.

Zelda asks puzzling.

Zelda-What do you mean?

Lightwing-You shall soon see.

Lightwing starts to vigorously flap his wings and so this produces a beautiful glittering magic that surrounds the broken black starlight gem. Lightwing then says.

Lightwing-Green Earth, fill the gem with your magnificent power!

The grass starts to glow and form into an energy beam. The beam fires right into the broken starlight gem and immediately repairs it. The gem floats up and everyone can see the energy inside looking fierce and strong. The black starlight gem glows so bright that everyone around completely covers their eyes. The evil beings start screaming and the demon knights are all decimated. Soon, the glowing dies down and as Zelda uncovers her eyes she see's the black starlight gem transforming its color. It transforms from black to green.

The green starlight gem floats over to Chet. And Lightwing fly's over to him and says.

Lightwing-This new starlight gem will only go if accepted.

Chet looks at Lightwing and nods. He takes it into his hands and soon his body starts to surge with awesome energy. The energy fires out from his body and causes many smaller explosions that look awesome but are non threatening. Zelda steps away as the heavy smoke disappears and she see's Chet looking at his hand glowing green.

Lightwing-You are now the Green Starlight Power Ranger. Your starlight zord is the Crocodile. Use it wisely.

Chet says to Lightwing.

Chet-I will.

Lightwing nods and disappears but not before saying.

Lightwing-Good luck Rangers.

Duke Freezor looks at his enemies and says.

Duke Freezor-Your pathetic new powers won't stop us!

Zelda steps forward and says.

Zelda-You just don't learn do you!?

She looks back at Chet and says.

Zelda-Its time!

Chet-Time? Time for what exactly?

Zelda-To transform.

Chet-But how?

Zelda-Trust me you already know since you have the power inside you.

Chet looks back at her and nods. He then instantly knows what to do so he steps up next to Zelda. 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.

Zelda and Chet-STARLIGHT POWER!

Both of them are found with the essence of the Universe.

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.

Next, a green star appears and swirls around Chet. It leaves it green power residue on his body as it attaches to the center of his chest. Soon the gem causes an explosion that flares up and covers Chet completely. Now as all of this happens an image of a green crocodile appears. The explosion dies down as the image forms all onto his body. A few seconds later, he starts glowing brightly green as he now completely becomes the Green Star Force Power Ranger.

Right after they finish morphing, the Duke and the Duchess fire icy blasts again towards the Rangers. They both leap out of the way just as the blasts hit the spots of where they once stood. They both land on opposite sides of their enemies.

Now, both of the Power Rangers materialize their weapons. The Green Ranger's weapon happens to be a chain with a hook on the end of it, it also has a stem base made out of a green stone. The chain can be either extracted out of the stone base or retracted back into it.

But before both Rangers have the opportunity to attack, the unknown being summons its Demon Knight army again. The Pink and Green Rangers back up against each other as the evil Knights move closer towards them.. The Pink Ranger says to her partner.

Pink Ranger-I think we're going to need some help.

Green Ranger-I think so too.

The Pink Ranger uses her powers to summon her friends. Nakia gets the message instantly as she still stands around in the music store. So many people are in the store now, and Nakia can't get to Ryan.. She sighs and decides to leave without him.

Meanwhile back at the park, the two Rangers start to fight..

The Pink Ranger does a cartwheel and this leads a few Demon knights away from the Green Ranger so that she may battle with them..

When she lands on her feet, the battle begins.

The Green Ranger does a few kick boxer moves, he does an uppercut, a side kick, a front kick and a slashing tornado kick that causes a few Demon Knights to fall to the ground and burn up very quickly.

Now, the Pink Ranger does a floor sweeping swoop and this causes her enemies to fall onto the ground. She gets up and notices one still standing, so she does a fierce kick and sends it flying into the blue sky. As the Demon Knight fly's through the air, the Yellow Ranger appears out of nowhere within the sky and strikes the beast with her Wild Cat Daggers. Soon the beast explodes into a heavy black dust..

She lands next to the Pink Ranger and notices the Green Ranger.. She looks at her friend and asks.

Yellow Ranger-Who's that?

Pink Ranger-Its Chet.. Long story.

The Yellow Ranger nods.

The evil beings start laughing.

Duke Freezor-You think you three Rangers are strong enough to stop us?!

The Yellow Ranger steps forward as the Green Ranger regroups with them.

Yellow Ranger-We don't think, we know!

The Unknown being says.

Unknown Being-You will all pay for your treachery!

Yellow Ranger-Get off our planet! Now! While you're still in one piece!

The evil beings start laughing and when they stop, the Unknown shadowy being makes a suggestion.

Unknown Being-Duke and Duchess might I suggest you expand your energy so that you will become more powerful and able to crush those annoying Rangers!

The Duke and Duchess look at each other and without really thinking, they agree. The Duke says to the Unknown Being.

Duke Freezor-We can expand our energy but..

The Unknown being cuts him off and begins to speak.

Unknown Being-Once you expand your energy I will be able to make you grow.

Duke Freezor-Grow? That sounds splendid! And then nothing will be able to stop us!

Unknown Being-That is correct..

Duchess Icikla asks suspiciously..

Duchess Icikla-Whats in it for you?

Unknown Being-The destruction of those Rangers is all I want!

The Duke and Duchess nod their heads once again. And soon they begin to expand their energies.

The Pink Ranger asks the Yellow Ranger.

Pink R anger-What are they doing?

She answers.

Yellow Ranger-I don't know..

The two icy beings are then zapped by the Unknown Beings lifeless yellow eyes. Soon they begin to grow to a very large size. The Rangers watch and exclaim.

Pink Ranger-We've got to call the zords!

Yellow Ranger-Without Ryan we won't be able to use the Megazords!

As soon as the two icy beings are larger than the tallest building in the world, the Unknown Being lets out a screeching laugh as its form begins to slowly move up and surround the Duke and Duchess. It then says.

Unknown Being-Don't worry Rangers, I won't let them harm you.. No, that pleasure will be mine!

The two icy beings look at each other and realize they have been tricked. But its too late. The Unknown being completely surrounds them with its shadowy form and instantly it begins to drain their energy at a very fast rate. Their bodies begin to melt as the Unknown Being continues to drain their life force energies.

Unknown Being-I thank you. You are the ones who awoke me and now you are the ones who will sustain me forever! I shall destroy your Queen and take over your planet, Hahaha!

The Duke lets out a gagging response.

Duke Freezor-Nooo.. You..

They continue to melt, and a few minutes after they completely lose consciousness they both turn into puddles of water.

Soon the cloudy being's body begins to surge with power and slowly form.

The Green Ranger yells out.

Green Ranger-What is that thing doing now?!

Yellow Ranger-Nothing good.

The Unknown Being lets out a loud laugh, louder than before. It then begins to say.

Unknown Being-I will be back Rangers. You haven't seen the last of me! I will make you pay for your interferences! I shall return!

The Unknown Being disappears.

The Pink Ranger watches as the two puddles of water slowly evaporate. She then turns to her friends but says nothing. The Green Ranger asks.

Green Ranger-What do you think we should do now?

The Yellow Ranger responds.

Yellow Ranger-Nothing we can do, but wait.

The Green Ranger nods..

Back on the planet of Iceroza, a huge cloud of darkness appears over the planet. The beings look up and start getting very scared. The Queen leaves her underground cavern to see what is going on. She looks up and notices the dark cloud shrinking into a smaller version of itself. And in the center, the eyes have formed into one with lighting surging through it. She asks sternly.

Queen Zara-What do you want?!

The dark cloud speaks.

Unknown Being-You are not only a threat to the earth but to me as well.. You must be exterminated at once!

Queen Zara-What?! This is silly!

The cloud begins to expand again. But this time it starts to cover the entire planet. The planet's inhabitants begin to feel an immense heat wave approaching as the cloud continues to cover the planet. The Queen yells out.

Queen Zara-NO, WE'LL MELT! THIS WILL NOT HAPPEN!

But all hope is lost. The heat wave begins work all too well. The icy beings begin to melt very quickly. The darkened cloud's voice speaks again.

Unknown Being-Only a servant from Leviathans court is allowed to take earth! SO DIE!

Soon the entire icy race melts away but not before the Unknown Being drains away their life force energies away completely. When it is all complete, nothing resides except a very large puddle of water which is soon absorbed into the dark cloud's form..

Suddenly, the dark cloud begins to form once again, but this time more define like. The form of a woman appears but in cloud form. This female form begins to generate evil red eyes that soon glow brightly as the thoughts of revenge surface..
