Chapter 82 Jealousy The Green Eyed Monster Part 2

Chet goes home due to a heavy headache he gets.. Zelda finds out and is really worried about him.. So when the school day finishes she and Nakia goes over to one of the pay phones next to the entrance of the building.. She dials his number but gets no answer.

Nakia asks..

Nakia-Any answer?

Zelda shakes her head..

Zelda-He should be home by now.

Nakia-Maybe he went to the hospital?

Zelda-I dunno..

Little do they know, Chet is home.. In fact he's up in his room going through a strange change.. His body is overcoming with jealousy but in the form of a dark green energy that surges through his veins.. He yells out..

Chet-WHAT'S HAPPENIN TO ME!?

No one is home so no one can hear him yell out..

Chet-AHHH!

The only being watching from the dead asteroid is General Hypnotilus.. He chuckles as he becomes very pleased at Chet's first transformation sequence..

General Hypnotilus-This is marvelous.. Soon the Green Ranger will be filled with enough jealousy that will turn him completely into a monster! And finally he'll get rid of his own friends for me..

He laughs very loudly.. He stops when he gets an image of Nakia and Zelda walking towards Chet's house..

General Hypnotilus-Damnit! The Yellow Ranger and Pink Ranger will ruin everything if they interfere now! The transformation is not yet complete! Hmmm.. Ah yes! Demon Knights!

He sends a few demon knights to earth…

Back on earth, Nakia and Zelda are walking in a nice looking neighborhood as they talk about Chet.. Suddenly a few demon knights appear right before them.. Nakia gasps and so does Zelda..

Zelda-Oh no, they're back!

Nakia-Let's get em!

Zelda-Right!

They rush over to them and the fight begins.. Nakia leads three of them out to the middle of the street…She sees a car coming from the right side and also an incoming high punch from one of the demon knights.. She immediately blocks it then super kicks it out of the way.. The car is coming closer and it seems like the driver isn't paying much attention to where he's going since he's looking for something.. Just as the other two attempt to attack Nakia, she leaps up over the car and onto the roof.. This quick thinking wasn't fortunate for the two demon knights though, they're flattened like pancakes.. Nakia looks down as she hangs onto the car and says to the driver..

Nakia-Thanks!

She then moves back up before the man has a chance to say something and does an awesome back flip up into the air, she then lands on her feet gently..

Zelda is taking care of two demon knights, she does a twirl around side kick that knocks one down, then when she's back on both feet, she does a floor sweeping swoop and knocks down the last one.. She quickly gets back up as all of the demon knights disappear in a cloud of black fiery smoke..

Nakia rushes back over to her where they give each other a high five..

Nakia-Whoo.. We did it..

Zelda-Yeah..

General Hypnotilus get angrier as he watches both Rangers move closer to Chet's house..

General Hypnotilus-Those incompetent fools! Who would of thought demon knights would do anything right! Grr! Well it doesn't matter.. I'll just increase the Green Ranger's transformation..

He chuckles.. As he chants to an image of Chet in pain..

General Hypnotilus-Green Ranger, don't fight it.. Let your jealousy overcome you.. Let it transform you into a beast of revenge and hate! Let it become the only reason why you live and breathe! NOW!

He points his right hand at the image and soon a green energy blast emerges from his hand.. It goes right into the image, and on earth right into Chet's bedroom where it strikes his entire body.. The blast overcomes him and causes him to yell out louder than ever..

Chet-AAAAAHHHHH!

Zelda and Nakia hears this and starts running faster to his house.. Soon the entire area begins to rumble violently..

Zelda-WHATS HAPPENING!?

Nakia-I DON'T KNOW, I DON'T KNOW!

Zelda-WE HAVE TO GET TO CHET!

They fall due to the rumbling and can't seem to get back on their feet. Inside of Chet's room, he is changing a lot faster.. Many bad energy particles appear and enter his body as finally a blinding green light surfaces and overcomes not only his room, but the house and the entire neighborhood.. The rumbling stops and the light is so intense that Nakia and Zelda cover their eyes and groan out..

Zelda-UGH!

Nakia-UHH!

When the green light vanishes.. Both girls look up and see a guy standing in the middle of the street but he's turned around so they can't see his face.. His body is slightly smoking as well..

Zelda-Who's that?

Nakia looks at Zelda and responds..

Nakia-I don't think I want to know..

Zelda-Me either.. But.. The clothes look familiar..

Nakia-Hmmm..

The guy turns around and both girls are shocked to see its Chet.. Only with a difference.. His eyes are extremely bulged out and are really shiny green.. His hair is wickedly wild and also green.. When he opens his mouth his green teeth starts to smoke slightly.. Zelda says..

Zelda-Chet?!

He says nothing.. Zelda is about to walk over to him but Nakia stops her..

Nakia-I hate to bring this up but Chet aint looking so good right now.. In fact he's looking down right sick..

Zelda-How can we help him?

Nakia-Call for back up..

Zelda-Back up? But he's one of us..

Nakia-I know.. But I don't think that means much to him.. Especially with the way he's looking at us right now..

Zelda-He… won't. hurt us..

Nakia-Yeah.. And I'm a big singing star who doesn't need any money right now.

Chet stares them down as his big green eyes begin to flash.. He then reveals his hideous looking green arms and hands.. He pushes them forward as he opens his mouth and horrendous amounts of evil energy pushes out through his body and strikes Nakia and Zelda.. The energy is so strong that is flings them up into the air, then they are pushed on top of Chet's roof where they crash slightly into it..

Nakia-Oh man!

Zelda-Ugh! That hurt!

Nakia-Hell yeah it did!

Zelda-I guess we have no choice..we..need..help..

Nakia-Now you're talkin!

They both stand up.. And go into cannonball flip mode as they leap off of the roof, then they yell out together..

Zelda and Nakia-STARLIGHT POWER!

Zelda glows pink and Nakia glows yellow.. When they land on their feet, they're both seen as the Yellow and Pink Star Force Power Rangers.

The Yellow Ranger turns on her communicator..

Yellow Ranger-Hey we need some serious help here..

Chet attacks while she's still using her communicator.. The Yellow Ranger dodges him but the Pink Ranger isn't so lucky.. She doesn't want to fight him because they're friends.. He picks her up by her neck area..

Pink Ranger-Chet! Stop..you've got to fight the evil!

He hurls her into the ground..

Pink Ranger-UGH!

The Yellow Ranger exclaims.

Yellow Ranger-Zelda!?

She rushes over to her and leans down on her bended knee.

Yellow Ranger-Are you okay?

The Pink Ranger coughs a bit but answers..

Pink Ranger-Yeah I'm all right..

Chet walks over to them, but stops when he notices three beams of streaked light appearing out of the sky.. The beams land next to the two Rangers, and form into the Red, Blue and White Power Rangers.. The Red Ranger exclaims at Chet..

Red Ranger-What are you doing man!? They're your friends!

Chet says nothing.. But soon his inner goodness starts to overcome the evil part.. He covers his head as he groans out in pain..

Chet-I can't…fight…it!

The Pink Ranger gets back on her feet and rushes over towards him, she leans down and says to him sternly..

Pink Ranger-Yes you can! I don't know what's happening to you, but you've got to fight it! You can do it!

General Hypnotilus watches through an invisible screen..

General Hypnotilus-What's this?! Oh no you don't Pink Ranger! I will not let you interfere with what must be done!

General Hypnotilus sends another green blast that hits Chet right in the back… His body starts to glow green again.. He screams out louder..

Chet-NOOOO! AAAAHHHHH!

The green glowing power causes the Pink Ranger to be pushed away from him.. She falls again but is helped back onto her feet.

The Rangers watch with horror as Chet screams out more and soon the green energy in his body begins to erupt even more in the form of waves.. The waves knock the Rangers down onto the street.. As they lay there their bodies become paralyzed and their suits set off small explosions..

Power Rangers-UGH!

Pink Ranger-Can't move!

General Hypnotilus laughs and says..

General Hypnotilus-Yes destroy your friends Green Ranger.. Finish them now!

He laughs louder and louder..

Meanwhile at the old weather station.. Jeremy watches through his main computer..

Jeremy-Oh man the Rangers are in serious trouble here..

He hears a voice from behind him.. A gentle voice..

Princess Ariel-Perhaps I can help the Rangers..

Jeremy turns around and asks.

Jeremy-Who are you?

Princess Ariel-A friend..

Jeremy-Who's?

Princess Ariel-I'm a friend of the Rangers.. And hopefully yours..

Jeremy gulps a bit because he has never seen such a beautiful creature before in his life.. He gets back to his senses then says.

Jeremy-Okay.. Please help them.. And help Chet get back to his normal self if you can..

Princess Ariel-I shall try..

He nods and she leaves the main computer room. She disappears from the weather station and appears on the same street but away from the danger scene.. She materializes her sword and says..

Princess Ariel-I think its time for Cosmica to deal with this situation..

She hears the yells and groans as she raises her sword high above her head, she then shouts out with fury.

Princess Ariel-SWORD OF LIGHT SHINE BRIGHT!

The Sword quickly activates.. It creates an Essence of beauty that surrounds the Princess.. A glittering multicolored rainbow of power appears over the Princess as the sword releases its energy.. The energy glides down the Sword till it reaches the Princess and soon it becomes absorbed into her body. Suddenly, her body glows brightly white and causes a beautiful chain reaction that permit's the sword to release a brighter sense of energy that seeps out of its tip.. This newer sense of energy swirls around the Princess and slowly transforms her into a warrior.. When complete, the swirling energy vanishes.. And soon the sword releases a powerful and blinding thunderclap that finishes the transformation process..

Cosmica leaps up into the sky.. She flies towards the Rangers and Chet.. The same thing is continuing with the Rangers being paralyzed by the green waves.. They lay on the ground not being able to move at all..

Cosmica lands next to the power and puts her sword down into it.. She then twirls her sword around fiercely and causes the energy to evaporate from the street but absorb into her sword.. She then twirls it around some more as she lands on her feet.. She with one quick swing she hurls the green energy into the sky where it explodes into a heavy cloud of destructive power.. It then disappears..

General Hypnotilus exclaims and almost chokes as he watches this..

General Hypnotilus-WHO IS THAT?!

A familiar voice is heard entering the dead asteroid..

Grand Master Sinistar-Who ever it is.. I want that sword!

General Hypnotilus is startled but gets himself together.. He stutters a bit..

General Hypnotilus-Master Sinistar… I…wasn't expecting..to hear..from you..

Grand Master Sinistar-I know.. I see your plan was almost working.. The Rangers were just about destroyed.. But that woman interfered!

General Hypnotilus-It is not over yet Master..

Grand Master Sinistar-We shall see.

Back on earth the Power Rangers stand back up and thank Cosmica.. Chet's body has stopped glowing.. He isn't back to normal though but he is just standing still looking completely dazed.. Cosmica says to the others after examining Chet's current state..

Cosmica-I sense a jealous rage inside of Chet that has been magnified by evil.

The Red Ranger asks in a confusing way.

Red Ranger-Jealous rage? Jealous of what?

Cosmica-I do not know the answer to that.

The Yellow Ranger and the Pink Ranger look at each other after realizing what Chet is jealous of. The Pink Ranger says.

Pink Ranger-Oh no.

The Blue Ranger asks.

Blue Ranger-Whats up Zelda. You know what Chet's jealousy is about?

Before the Pink Ranger has a chance to answer which she really doesn't think to answer, the Yellow Ranger steps in and answers for her.

Yellow Ranger-Chet got a little jealous earlier because Zelda went out to lunch with the new guy at school.

The other Power Rangers look at each other before speaking their thoughts.

White Ranger-You're kidding? That is what all of this is about?

The Yellow Ranger shakes her head to the you're kidding question but nods her head to the second question.

The Blue Ranger says.

Blue Ranger-No offense to Chet but he needs to grow up a bit.

Red Ranger-Cut him some slack Joey, emotions are hard to tame especially if you got feelings for someone.

Blue Ranger-I know that Ryan but still if he had better control over his emotions maybe we wouldn't have this problem now.

White Ranger-Its not entirely Chet's fault. We've got those evil assholes to thank for turning him against us by using his jealousy.

Yellow Ranger-I really couldn't of said that better myself Kimberly. I wholeheartedly agree.

Cosmica-We can get him back.

The Pink Ranger asks with hope.

Pink Ranger-But how can we do that?

Yellow Ranger-Yeah your sword only brought some kind of comatose look and feel to him.

Cosmica-Yes it is true that he is calm now but the evil inside of him is still there and the only way to get it out of him is to cut it out.

The Pink Ranger asks with a hint of fright in her tone.

Pink Ranger-Cut the evil out?!

White Ranger-And how are we supposed to do that without hurting him?

Cosmica-Hurting him is the least of our problems right now. We don't have much of a choice.

Blue Ranger-Are you sure there isn't any other way?

Cosmica-There is no other way. I sense the evil deep inside of him, it must be cut out of him or otherwise it will continue to grow and do even more damage to him.

Red Ranger-Not to mention the damage he could do to other people who might happen to be in his way if things got a lot worse.

Yellow Ranger-Then we really don't have a choice.

Pink Ranger-But hurting him isn't something I want to do.

Red Ranger-Look at it this way Zelda, he will heal.

She looks at him and after a few seconds more of thinking, she agrees.

Pink Ranger-Alright, if that is the only way to save him.

Cosmica-Trust me it is.

The Red Ranger says.

Red Ranger-We understand..

Suddenly Chet starts glowing green again and he starts groaning out but when the Rangers along with Cosmica turn to him they see he has disappeared.

Pink Ranger-What? Where did he go?!

The other Rangers speak now.

Yellow Ranger-Your guess is as good as mine.

Blue Ranger-We gotta find him.

Red Ranger-And where are we supposed to start looking?

White Ranger-Lets ask Jeremy if he can find him.

Cosmica-That will take too long. I will find him.

The Rangers nod in agreement.

Cosmica looks at her sword and says.

Cosmica-Sword of light, show us where Chet, the Green Ranger is.

The diamond like jewel in the center of the sword begins to glow, it then releases a projection beam that when it hit's the ground, an image begins to slowly develop.

Blue Ranger-Hmmm..

The image finally comes into view and its an area in downtown Terra Falls where tall buildings are highly erect and soon someone comes walking out of one of those buildings. The Pink Ranger gasps when she notices who it is.

Pink Ranger-Its Damon!

White Ranger-Damon?

Pink Ranger-Yes, he is the new guy, the guy I went out to lunch with.

Red Ranger-Why are we seeing him instead of Chet?

Cosmica-It can only mean one thing.

The Power Rangers put two and two together. Chet's jealousy and Damon. They gasp.

Red Ranger-Oh man! Chet is going after Damon!

Blue Ranger-We need to get to him fast to stop Chet!

Pink Ranger-This is really weird because Chet doesn't even know who Damon is…except for the fact that I went out to lunch with him.

Cosmica-Chet may not know but the evil inside of him obviously does.

Blue Ranger-Man if Chet hurts Damon… He will never forgive himself. I know it.

Yellow Ranger-We are going to prevent him from doing that Joey.

Suddenly the image changes and everyone looks to see bright green spheres of light emerging and attempting to strike Damon, he falls to the ground when one succeeds. Guilt starts to overcome the Pink Ranger.

Pink Ranger-Oh no its all my fault.

The Yellow Ranger exclaims.

Yellow Ranger-Stop that Zelda! It is not!

Pink Ranger-How can you say its not my fault Nakia?

Yellow Ranger-Because its not! So stop blaming yourself.

The Pink Ranger sighs but says nothing.

White Ranger-We need to be on our way to stop him.

Red Ranger-Everyone listen, have your weapons ready for when we get there, I have an idea that will stop Chet from attacking Damon anymore than he already has and at the same time cut the evil out of him.

Power Rangers-Right!

Cosmica-On our way then.

When the image the sword projects disappears, Cosmica raises her sword above her head and says.

Cosmica-Sword of light send us to the Green Ranger Chet!

The sword glows extremely bright which causes the entire scene to become enveloped within the brightness, when it fades, everyone has disappeared.
