Chapter 96 Hecate's Arrival (Pronounced Haykatay) Part 2
With everything brought to a halt due to the arrival of the most powerful evil goddess known as Hecate things seem to go back to normal for the time being, all hallow's eve has come and gone to the dismay of Bansheeva and the three evil shadows known as her evil children, Fuumiz, Discord and Jarek have been stopped due to Hecate's orders and they have returned to their mothers home.
And also to let it be known the three goddesses Queen Phera, Lyn Diana, Cryska and god Azmodeus of the eternal shine have been captured by Hecate's massively evil power, she has frozen their bodies on the inside and turned the outside of their bodies to pure stone therefore rendering their ability to contact Hestia, Hecate's equal useless but that doesn't mean Hestia doesn't know exactly what is going on. But on a good note, all of the Power Rangers, Ryan, Nakia, Zelda, Joey, Chet, Kimberly, Todd, Kaitlynn, Amy, Marisa, David and Jeremy have been restored to their bodies due to Hecate ordering Bansheeva to do so.
So now I take you back to the city of Terra Falls right to Terra Falls High School, where the secretary in the guidance counselor's office is almost shocked beyond belief when she see's Zelda walking into the office looking a bit disheveled wearing a white blouse that buttons up, a pair of pink jeans and white and blue sneakers although she looks a bit not there she still manages to carry her books without dropping them. She exclaims.
Mrs. Patterson-Zelda! Oh my goodness!
Zelda looks at her but before she has a chance to say anything Mrs. Patterson asks.
Mrs. Patterson-Are you ok?
Zelda blinks her eyes as if to assist them in the goal of making them focus clearly and when she is successful she answers.
Zelda-Yeah, I I think so.
Mrs. Patterson-It looks like you just got back from a party.
Zelda-Honestly I don't remember much of where I have been for the past day or two.
Mrs. Patterson-Past day or two? Honey you have been gone for two months!
Zelda-Two months, really?
Mrs. Patterson-Yes, and I have to tell you this I really think you should be in the hospital from the way you are looking right now.
Zelda-I am ok I think I just don't feel like myself.
Mrs. Patterson-Everyone has been so worried about you and your friends, in fact do you know where they are? Are they going to be coming back into school too like you?
Zelda-I at least remember my friends being with me and they are coming back here too.
Mrs. Patterson-I see. And you don't remember anything about where you or your friends have been for the past two months?
Zelda-I really don't remember. I wish I did.
Mrs. Patterson-Ok maybe I should call for an ambulance.
Zelda-No, don't I will be ok, I'll just get to class.
Mrs. Patterson-Are you sure?
Zelda-Yes I'm sure, if I don't get better or I feel worse I'll see the school nurse.
But she starts to think to herself.
Zelda-Why do I feel so rundown, I have never felt like this before, I usually take care of myself. Hmmm I wonder where Nakia and the others are.
She leaves the office wondering if she can find her friends.
Hecate has made herself at home within Bansheeva's skull palace. She sits on a newly magically constructed dark throne room just below Bansheeva's own throne room. Bansheeva appears to her.
Hecate-I have a job for that simpering little imp you saved.
Bansheeva-Persacore.
Hecate-Yes, summon the little disgusting thing.
Bansheeva-As you wish Hecate.
Bansheeva points a finger towards the floor and a blast of dark red energy emerges from her finger and strikes the ground where it forms into Persacore. He looks at Bansheeva and asks.
Persacore-You called me Empress?
Before Bansheeva can answer, Hecate interrupts.
Hecate-I called for you, Persacore!
He looks at Hecate and immediately bows with the utmost respect.
Hecate-You are to go back into the past to stop the wizard Myndor and his partner the sorceress Kastra from creating new Power Rangers, understand?!
Persacore gulps with slight fear and doubt.
Persacore-I. understand, but how can I do that?
Hecate-As Persaking you should be able to finish that task with no problem!
Bansheeva-They are creating new Rangers?
Hecate-They hope to, to stop you but that won't happen will it Persacore?
Persacore-Oh no no my Queen, I will stop them.
Hecate-Excellent just what I wanted to hear. And to make sure things go the way they are supposed to.
She yells out.
Hecate-Weremane appear now!
Suddenly a horde of bright white lightning power appears in the center of the throne room and a bone crushing roar is heard, the power forms into what looks like a large black werewolf creature with the mane of a lion. He bows to Hecate and says.
Weremane-I am here Hecate my Queen, how can I help you?
Hecate-You will accompany Persacore in the past from this time to stop and capture Myndor and Kastra, bring them to me!
Weremane-It shall be done!
Hecate-Hahaha! I have no doubts!
Persacore asks.
Persacore-May I ask a question?
Hecate looks at him and nods.
Persacore-How am I to become Persaking again?
Hecate waves her right hand and this gesture causes a orange sphere to appear, it expands and sparkles with power.
Hecate-There! Walk into the portal and it will take you both to the land of Cawdor and when you find yourself there Persacore your form of Persaking will be bestowed upon you!
Persacore-Thank you my Queen.
Hecate-Hurry, go! And do not fail!
Weremane-I assure you my Queen both Myndor and Kastra will soon be bowing at your feet!
Hecate-Excellent Weremane excellent, once you bring them to me I will freeze their blood and incase their bodies in stone to add to my personal collection! Hahaha!
The others laugh as well. When they stop Persacore is the first to say.
Persacore-We shall not fail you.
Hecate-Go now into the portal and do your task!
Weremane-At once my Queen!
The two creatures walk into the portal and as soon as they do and can be seen no more the portal disappears. Hecate basks in her evil glory.
Hecate-This is most wonderful! It has begun and we shall be the victors this time! Hahahaha!
Back to Zelda who has decided instead of trying to go to class, she has found a corner spot away from prying eyes to activate her communicator. She gets no response until she hears Lightwing's voice.
Lightwing-Zelda, Zelda!
Zelda-Yeah I'm here Lightwing. I'm trying to contact the other Rangers but no one is answering.
Lightwing-They are trapped, you must teleport to me now.
Zelda-At the weather station?
Lightwing-No, just start your teleportation sequence and I will guide you to me, this is most dire, and we have to free the others as soon as possible.
Zelda-Ok, I'm on my way.
Lightwing-Wait, I forgot, make sure you transform first!
Zelda-Ok.
She turns off her communicator and thinks to herself.
Zelda-Maybe I'll feel better when I morph.
She looks around to make sure no one is around to see her and when she sees the coast is clear she raises her hand and calls forth the pink starlight, she yells out as it appears and shines down on her.
Zelda-PINK STARLIGHT POWER!
The beam becomes explosive upon Zelda and quickly transforms her into the Pink Star Force Ranger. She quickly teleports out of the high school.
Back to the evil ones, Bansheeva learns what happened to her three daughters and Azmodeus.
Hecate-What is the matter Bansheeva? You should be very excited about our victory over existence itself!
Bansheeva-I know but I worry about my three daughters, Phera, Lyn Diana and Cryska and I worry about Azmodeus as well. I know they are suffering.
Hecate-Oh they are being kept away from us. Because if they were still here they would be nothing more than obstacles in our way.
Bansheeva-You have captured them?
Hecate-Yes, they are frozen and stonified and they shall remain that way until I release them.
Bansheeva-I see. Where are they?
Hecate-On the dead asteroid Hexos. But they are within the asteroid. It is just another layer of protection that will secure they stay as they are.
Bansheeva-Hexos is indeed very difficult to break into.
Hecate-Unless you are a God or Goddess as I am.
Bansheeva-Yes, but with you putting them there it seems to me that you have no intention of ever releasing them.
Hecate-Hahahaha oh Bansheeva if I didn't know better it appears that you are showing a bit of concern for those fools!
Bansheeva-I am just stating what I believe.
Hecate-Well focus on the total domination of existence itself! With your daughters and Azmodeus out of the way they are no longer obstacles and better yet they can no longer even attempt to summon Hestia! Evil is finally having its moment of glory and I will make sure it stays that way!
Bansheeva-Of course.
Bansheeva can't help but remember Cryska's words to her about still loving her and wanting to help her return to her grace and this somehow seems to break a bit of the evil even more that is holding Bansheeva.. Hecate senses her feelings and so she says.
Hecate-I sense your feelings for them Bansheeva and you being their mother that is quite understandable but do not let your past love for them blind you Bansheeva, there are bigger things we shall conquer with them out of the way!
Bansheeva-Yes I know that Hecate but don't you think incasing them in ice and stone was a bit too much?
Hecate-What are you talking about? Of course not!
Bansheeva-When do you plan to release them?
Hecate-When I see fit!
Bansheeva-So in other words, never!
Hecate-You are letting your feelings for them blind you Bansheeva and I told you to not let that happen!
Bansheeva-Sometimes feelings can take over no matter what you say!
Hecate-Are you saying you want them released now?
Bansheeva-In a way, I feel that such a punishment inflicted on them is too much, so yes I want them released, now.
Bansheeva's body begins to glow a powerful dark red and Hecate sees it as a threat.
Hecate-Ahhhh your anger is seething.. You dare to challenge me?!
Bansheeva-I dare!
Hecate-Hahahaha you fool! Your powers are no match for mine! Even though you are a powerful blood witch you cannot even think to challenge my powers!
Bansheeva-We shall see won't we!
Bansheeva charges at Hecate but the evil goddess stops her when she hurls a powerful fireball at the blood witch that when she is struck it sends her flying backward crashing into the wall.
Bansheeva-UGH!
Hecate-Hahaha!
Bansheeva gets it together and stands back up as she says.
Bansheeva-Is that all you got Hecate?
Hecate-Of course not, you are trying my patience!
Bansheeva-Well you're not the only one that can strike like that!
Conjuring up a blood storm, Bansheeva quickly sends it directly at Hecate but the evil goddess' eyes begin to pulsate which causes the floor to violently shake causing it to burst open and out comes a massive hoard of the living dead. Hecate laughs and says.
Hecate-Yes my beauties show Bansheeva who rules all!
The zombies obey their Queen by opening their mouths and inhaling the blood storm within themselves. Then they move in to attack Bansheeva, but when they get close enough to her her body begins to glow a powerful dark red that when they strike her one at a time they burn up into nothingness. Bansheeva then raises her blood skull scepter and sends out a powerful plasma blast that Hecate melts away before it has the chance to hit her. Hecate exclaims.
Hecate-DO NOT MAKE ME SHOW YOU MY TRUE POWER BANSHEEVA!
Bansheeva-Do what you will Hecate, as I intend to do!
Hecate-I will not release your daughters or Azmodeus!
Bansheeva's eyes glow dark red and immediately begin to pulsate as she directs them towards Hecate and just before the evil goddess retaliates she finds herself unable to move. Bansheeva gloats.
Bansheeva-You may be a supreme evil goddess Hecate but you still have blood regardless of it being immortal blood the point is you still have blood flowing through you and I shall use all I have to take control of it!
Hecate, paralyzed is completely shocked that Bansheeva has been able to do such a thing to her, she exclaims as she struggles.
Hecate-IT IS USELESS...FIGHTING AGAINST EACH OTHER BANSHEEVA, RELEASE...ME NOW!
Bansheeva-You are no longer in control Hecate!
Hecate-How is it..you are able..to take..control of..my immortal blood?!
Bansheeva-That is my ancient secret Hecate, now release my daughters and Azmodeus once I release you!
Hecate-I...don't..think..that will..suffice Bansheeva..They..are..evil's obstacles..you..must..see..that!
Bansheeva-Then you shall suffer an eternity sealed in your own blood!
Not knowing where she is going, the Pink Star Force Ranger is gliding through the dark starry sky of space with Lightwing's magic as her guide her body suit is glowing Pink with total immensity.. She says to herself.
Pink Star Force Ranger-I hope I get to where I am supposed to in time.
In the land of Cawdor hundreds of years into the past, the two beasts now Persaking and Weremane arrive. The Wizard's Pool becomes alarmed and they stop trying to create new power sources for new Rangers and at once alert Kastra and Myndor of the impending danger aimed towards the two.
Persaking says.
Persaking-Finally we are here!
Weremane-Yes, but remember we are going up against two powerful magical foes, if we can't bring them back to Hecate at least we will tear them to shreds!
Persaking-I wouldn't have it any other way!
They both laugh.
Myndor and Kastra watch the two beasts through the blue potion within the large cauldron known as the Wizard's Pool.
Kastra-So, Hecate has revealed herself in the future and has sent those two monsters to kill us?
Myndor-It appears that way.
Kastra-Then we shall use all we have in the way of magic to stop them!
Myndor-Agreed!
Wizards Pool-You must be careful, they have a powerful dark talisman blessed by Hecate with them, they will not be easy to subdue!
Kastra-Understood but we still will do all that we can do.
Myndor-Is there anyway to render the talisman useless?
Wizards Pool-We are not sure Myndor, I don't think we have the power to stop it.
Myndor-Surely with our combined magic we should be able to do something to stop those beasts!
Wizards Pool-We shall find a way Myndor.
Kastra looks at Myndor with surety, she says.
Kastra-We will defeat them Myndor, I have faith in our abilities.
Myndor-Yes so do I but it just burns me up that we don't have time to create new Power Rangers to help our friends in the future.
Kastra-I know, it bothers me as well but we have bigger problems and they are heading directly to us!
