A/N: Here we go!

Music - Jules's Song is linked on my profile.


The revelation of Jules's fate shook the Rangers to the core. After leaving their friend's house, the six teleported to HQ to talk to Claire.

Alicia and Sonia dejectedly sat down on the black couch while Noah took a seat on the arm. Liam could only blankly stare at all the white walls thinking deeply.

Crossing her arms, Claire asked, "What's wrong?"

Sighing, Jared explained everything.

"I see." She answered calmly. "This goes way beyond my knowledge of Spirits. Usually, Andrew would know what to do, but he's at the Academy right now. This is Dr. Stark level stuff."

"So what do we do?" Noah asked worriedly, as he squeezed the couch arm under him.

"There's nothing we CAN do. We have to play this one by ear. Go home and rest. Be sure to let Tobias and Lydia know. With your other friends studying abroad, we need all the help we can get. I'll try to contact Rachel and her team."

Nodding, the Rangers filed out of HQ. Liam decided to do something different.

~~ Theme ~~

~Bayview Hospital~

Sighing with relief, Liam put his cell phone away. Jules's mother had informed him that she was at the hospital with her daughter.

As he walked to the front desk, echoes of what had happened a year earlier with Alicia filled his mind.

"What can I do for you?" Asked the attendant.

"I'm here to visit. Julianna Sanchez?"

Looking down the list, the attendant informed, "She's in room 303."

"Thank you." Liam nodded as he went down the hall to his right.

Liam got to Jules's room as her mother started to leave.

"I'll be back in a bit, sweetie. I'll bring your flute. I love you." She said kissing her daughter's forehead.

Liam sat in the chair next to his friend and she smiled.

"Thanks for coming, Liam. Where're the others?"

"Resting. We really don't know what to do right now." At that moment, Jules started to break down and cry.

"Hey, what's wrong?" Liam asked, hugging her.

Letting her head fall on his chest, she answered, "I'm just some tool for the Twilight. My powers are evil based! I'm bound to destiny."

Remembering the Bount he had befriended, Liam shook his head. "That's not true..."

Before he could elaborate, the Hospital started to shake.

"What the-'' Liam began. He peeked down the hall and gasped. Twilight Black, with a squad of Shadowlites, was coming his way.

"Not what I needed."

"Found you! Give me the girl!" Black sneered. Jules limped over and took a battle stance.

"Are you sure?" Liam asked with a worried look.

"Positive." Jules answered.

"Spirit Legend, Awaken!"

However, only a green transformation circle appeared on the ground and only Liam morphed. As the Green Ranger charged forward with his X-Sword, Jules looked down at her belt in horror. She couldn't even morph. The Spirit of Darkness had abandoned her.

"No..." Jules whispered.

Liam, seeing this, yelled, "Run!"

Letting more and more tears stream down her face, Jules high tailed it out of the Hospital. The Shadowlites were following her. She sprinted past nurses who closed doors and pulled patients away but she didn't slow down. As she tried to escape, she threw and pushed objects behind her: Racks, carts, wheelchairs, anything to help.

Unfortunately, she took a wrong turn and was cornered. However, dark blue and purple spheres of light surrounded the Shadowlites and occupied them while a cloaked figure grabbed Jules and teleported away with a swirl of orbs of equal color.

~~The Park~~

Jules found herself rolling on the wet ground and quickly oriented herself to her feet. Looking around, she noticed that the Park was empty. Of course, it had rained heavily earlier and not many people visit the park when it rains.

She could still feel the cool atmosphere and the small sprinkle of water falling from the sky.

Looking at the cloaked figure, she gasped.

"Alviss!"

Nodding, Alviss held up his hands to show he meant no harm.

"I only wanna ask a few questions."

Raising her fists, Jules spat, "And why should I help you?"

"Because I know you can't fight right now. So what's the point?"

Knowing how true that was, Jules nodded. "Ask away."

"Jared Gordon. Please tell me about him."

This caught the Potential off guard. "Jared? Why?" She asked suspiciously.

"Please tell me. Does he have any siblings?"

"Yeah, a twin." Jules reluctantly answered.

"I see..." Alviss pulled his black hood down to reveal dark brown hair that reached past his ears. He pulled off his masquerade and revealed his face to Jules who gasped in horror and surprise.

"Don't say anything." Alviss warned. "I just... wanted to see. I don't feel right about what I'm doing with the Twilight. But I must."

Calming down, Jules stepped forward. "Why?"

"I don't know why. I'm sorry for dragging you out here."

"No, I should be thanking you actually."

"Well, I disagree... They've followed us." With that Alviss teleported away out of fear his Grandfather would find out what he had done.

Jules turned to see ten Shadowlites running at her. She knew she had no chance against this squad. Suddenly, an unexpected flash of green and white kicked the first Shadowlite away.

She expected it was Liam but was completely wrong. It was a middle aged man with brown hair. He wore a green and white plaid shirt and cargo pants with black boots.

"Julianna, right?" The man asked as he spun and kicked another Shadowlite.

"Yeah... You're... How...?"

"I was in the neighborhood." The man answered as he threw two Shadowlites into the air.

As he finished off the remaining Foot Soldiers he turned around and held out his hand.

"Thomas Oliver, or just Tommy for short."

~The Hospital~

By now, all the Rangers were fighting their Counterparts. Asher was sent out to look for Jules.

Jared was sent through a wall by Twilight Red. "I love this new power." Red grunted.

Groggily getting up, Jared fired his X-Defender but the shots were blocked by Red's sword.

"New power?" Jared asked himself as he clashed his own sword with Red's. The Slayer backflipped away, swung his sword, and sent metallic needles out of the blade.

Red dodged the projectiles and kept charging.

Noah was thrown into the ceiling and came down to the ground hard. Blue laughed with joy as he repeatedly stomped on Noah's back.

Legend Blue rolled away and got to his feet. "Wrong day to pick on me." Noah threatened. The walls started to shake and Blue looked around in confusion. All sides exploded with bursts of water and Noah willed them to strike Twilight Blue with ferocity.

Alicia was sent flying against elevator doors by Twilight Pink's arrows.

"What's wrong, Pinky?" Pink sneered. "You gonna give up? Hmmm how should I start a fire under you? Maybe I should go after your bratty brother."

Something inside Alicia snapped. "No one. Threatens. My. Brother!" Alicia rose her hands up.

"Etativel reh!" Twilight Pink was hoisted off the ground. Alicia, in righteous fury, proceeded to throw Twilight Pink around like a ragdoll.

Liam was pierced by Black's lance and sent out of the three story window. Thinking quickly, he spun around and used his Power from Within to propel himself through the second level window just below Twilight Black.

"No one is getting Jules." He whispered as he charged up his Axe. "NO ONE!" He sliced up and sent a massive wave of green energy through the ceiling and managed to nail Black.

Sonia was weaving and dodging around cover as Twilight Yellow fired volleys of supercharged energy from her sling.

"Come on, girl. Where's the fighting spirit?" Yellow taunted. "Don't you care what happens to your friends?"

Sonia's blood boiled, and she kicked a gurney with lots of force. Twilight Yellow jumped over it and Sonia took that chance. Raising her right hand into the air and sticking up her index finger, Sonia focused. The ceiling light bulbs explode all at once and all the power flowed into Sonia's right pointed finger. She then made the alarms and intercom speakers screech for a few seconds until those blew out too.

The sound waves produced by the alarms and speakers flowed around the electricity. Sonia then launched the supercharged sound-electricity blast at Twilight Yellow and knocked her down the hall.

~Bayview Plaza~

Asher rode on the Overboard, looking for Jules. He had a bad feeling and advised all the civilians to clear the area. Fortunately, he made the right call because minutes after the last people cleared, he was struck in the back and fell off the board.

Looking up, he spotted Slade in his new armor walking toward him.

"Ah, good. Target practice." Slade mused as Asher pulled out his personal weapon.

~With Jules and Tommy~

"...so you see? This is my destiny. It's hopeless." Jules said.

The two sat on a bench at the beach looking over the calm waves.

Continuing, she said, "I'm evil because of my family's past. They taught the Twilight powerful spells that added onto their power. And now, I'm helping them grow stronger."

"Well maybe you are evil." Tommy answered.

"What?"

"But maybe you're not."

"I don't understand."

"Julianna, I was around your age when Rita Repulsa brainwashed me into being the evil Green Ranger."

"But that's different! You had no control over your actions."

"That's the thing. No one knows this, not even my friends: I did have control over my actions. I wanted to destroy the Rangers, I wanted to rule the world. Nothing else mattered to me."

Jules was taken aback.

"That Power Coin didn't turn me evil. It awakened a darkness inside of me. It's a darkness that exists inside everyone. Jules, you've been using your powers for good all this time. Believe me when I say that your good deeds outweigh the bad ones. It doesn't matter if you were never meant to be a Ranger in the beginning. Once a Ranger, always a Ranger. And I know you'll learn what you have to do."

Suddenly, the clouds started to shift and grow dark. The moon hung in the sky and took on a blood red color.

"The Prophecy from the Wizard..."

"Are you ok?" Tommy asked.

"More than ok. I know what I have to do!"

"That's the spirit. Take this." Tommy held out his Green Dragon Dagger.

"Are you sure?"

"This is your fight. Your friends's fight. Not mine."

Nodding, she took the Dagger in her hands and turned to the city. She closed her eyes and could see her friends being thrown around by Slade.

"Slade's power has grown from my own. But wait, he has another power source. The Twilights stood in line with their weapons drawn. Behind them were eight teenagers, five boys and three girls.

"No. I have to stop him." Jules said. "Tommy, thank you."

"Don't mention it. Do what you have to do."

In a swirl of purple light, her Overwing appeared. Jules hopped on and drove off, leaving Tommy Oliver watching. He nodded in approval.

At HQ, Lydia and Tobias readied the computer monitors, prepared to help out in whatever they could.

"I hope they'll be ok." Lydia said as she scanned Slade's power levels.

"Of course they will." Tobias answered. "These are our friends. Just watch."

Claire stayed silent and in her mind thanked Tommy for showing up.

~Plaza~

The Lunar Knight Megazord slashed at giant shadow figures that Slade had created. However, Asher was getting thrashed. He couldn't hold on and was eventually thrown out of the cockpit, demorphing when he landed.

"Asher!" Jared shouted as he locked swords with Slade.

"You should be worried about yourself, Slayer." With that, Slade slashed Jared repeatedly and launched him away. Liam caught him in a barrier and let him slide to his feet.

Phoenix and Medusa watched from a building top.

"I should be the one to fight the Slayer." Phoenix growled.

"You should worry about one thing at a time." Medusa informed, referring to Phoenix's sick lover.

Noah and Sonia double teamed Slade with their swords but failed and were ultimately thrown back.

Slade launched thousands of black energy missiles into the air and directed them at the Rangers. Liam raised a barrier and blocked them all. However when the attack subsided, Liam fell to the ground and demorphed.

"Liam, you ok, buddy?" Noah asked, helping his friend.

"I'm... f-fine." Liam whispered.

Sonia sent a soundwave through the ground and tripped Slade up while Alicia jumped high above him to send a wave of wind.

However, Slade blasted Alicia out of the air then sent his own ground wave at Sonia. He made his sword extend into a staff and swung it in front of him causing a black energy wave to hit Sonia back. She demorphed upon hitting the ground. Alicia demorphed midair and would not survive the fall. Jared jumped into the air and saved her.

"Jared..." She whispered.

"Don't worry, I got you." He whispered back.

Slade wasn't done. He fired more black energy at the two, but they were blocked by Bobby in his Knight Form.

"Sorry I'm late." Bobby said. "Migraines and College life aren't the best combo." He had seen Jared save Alicia and that kinda annoyed him, but he knew this was not the time.

Silver bullets, magical waves, white animal spirits, a neon green blast, and a slash wave of ice hit Slade back.

"Sorry we're late." Rachel said.

"You guys could use some help." Luke said.

"Of course they do." Colton said, winking at the Rangers.

"Long time no see." Iris nodded.

"So, what's up with big-bad and ugly?" Kayla asked, pointing to Slade.

Slade sighed in irritation. "More flies to swat. Twilight Rangers, get them."

The Five Twilights reluctantly charged at Rachel's team while thousands of Shadowlites surrounded Bobby.

"That was easy." Slade commented as the two groups fought.

"Now, where were we?"

Noah and Jared stood together.

Noah said, "We were just about to kick your butt. Wouldn't you agree, Jared?"

Nodding, Jared replied, "That sounds about right."

The two swung forward with their X-Swords, but Slade blocked them with his staff.

Slade said, "Just give up and give me the girl."

"Never!" The two shouted.

Jared then jumped off of Noah's right shoulder and sent down an axel kick. Noah rolled to the left and sent a sweep kick. Slade jumped back and the two missed completely.

Noah raised his arms and swung them forward, causing massive amounts of water to form from the air and launch at Slade. Using his Power from Within, Jared rode on the water stream and powered up his X-Sword.

"Spirit Slash!" Jared shouted as he swiped at Slade. The attacks hit the Phantom, but he deflected them and fired an even more powerful attack at the two. They struggled to their feet and raised their weapons.

"One more ought to do the trick." He was going to send another wave when Jules's Overwing crashed into him.

"Leave my friends alone." Jules threatened. She still wore her hospital sweats and shirt.

"Ah, the girl comes to me." Slade mused.

"Yes, I've come to you. I've come to stop you!" She looked back at Jared and Noah. "See those teenagers in the distance? They're Slade's main power source. I need you to free them while I fight Slade." The two nodded and readied their weapons.

"You can't morph. You're dying! Surely, you can't be serious. Besides, you're evil at heart."

"You're wrong, Slade. I know what I have to do now, and you're going down!"

Suddenly, the purple transformation circle appeared under Jules's feet.

"I'm not scared anymore! I'll give anything to protect this world; protect my friends!" As she shouted, the circle glowed brighter and brighter.

"SPIRIT LEGEND, AWAKEN!" As her Ring was scanned by her belt, the transformation circle enveloped her in a brilliant purple light that shot a stream into the sky, creating a hole in the barrier of clouds. The movement caused the blood moon to be covered.

Swirling purple orbs surrounded her as the Spirit of Darkness appeared behind her. He melded with Jules and her Ranger suit formed.

When she had finished morphing, and the circle disappeared, the hole in the clouds remained, and a lone sunbeam shined down on her like an angel fighting the darkness.

"Spirit of Shadow: Violet Legend Ranger." Jules calmly announced wielding the dragon dagger. The remaining traces of purple orbs surrounded the dagger and made it grow into a bright fuchsia colored sword.

Materializing her Pike in her other hand, Jules ran forward. As she did, the Spirit spoke to her.

"Jules, my name is Roku. I thank you for your bravery and everything you've done. Your overflowing courage and resolve to save the world has granted you all my power. I know you are aware of what you must do."

"Thank you, Roku. I am." Jules answered. She jumped into the air and rode waves of darkness like a surfer on water.

She clashed with Slade and knocked him back a few steps. She kept slamming him with her new sword as Jared and Noah worked to free the unconscious teenagers. Jared destroyed their magical restraints while Noah destroyed the Shadowlites who were on guard.

"Where am I?" The boy called Matt asked.

"Go hide." Jared told him and the other teens.

"I don't care about myself anymore." Jules thought to herself as she sailed through the air with her weapons. "I can destroy Slade... but it'll... it'll..."

Jules let massive dark volleys rain down on the Phantom. She landed and repeatedly bombarded him with a combo of her pike and sword. She dodged all his counter strikes and jumped high into the air. She threw her pike and it went right through him, causing agony. She landed once more and nailed a few kicks to his chest and slashed his right arm, disarming him. She mercilessly slashed him and hit him with dark blasts.

"How can this be?!" Slade shouted in anguish.

"You don't understand the meaning of true darkness!" Jules shouted.

She let a burst of smokey black blast the Phantom into a street pole.

"Everyone... always sees darkness as a bad thing. Even I saw it as a cursed power. But now I know... the true meaning of darkness. Slade... this is your end!" Jules let out a battle cry and sailed at Slade. She grabbed him and brought him up to the sky. She used dark energy to restrict his movements.

"No... I will not be defeated here!"

"You will." Jules answered.

Making a final decision, the White Wizard's prophecy echoed in her head.

"When the darkness floods the skies and the moon blood red, a great evil will confront you. You must not shy away from it. As the messenger of darkness, you will lose your way and rise up as a complete warrior. You will ascend and complete your true quest."

"This is the start of my true quest." Jules whispered as she started to glow a bright purple.

"No, you can't be thinking... You wouldn't! You couldn't!"

"AAAAAAAAAAAAUUURHHHHHAHHHHHHHHHHH!" Jules let out as she let herself explode in a mass of black and purple shimmering light.

"Jules!" Everyone shouted.

The Twilights, upon seeing this, retreated.

Slade was gone, and only Jules remained in the sky, demorphed and falling. As she descended, the skies slowly cleared. Still dark all around, a circle opened above Jules and once again, a sunbeam showered her with light. Jared and Noah, still morphed, materialized their Overbike and Overboard respectively and flew to her. They caught her and upon landing at the bottom of the sunbeam, demorphed.

The others surrounded them just outside of the light "barrier."

"Stay with us, Jules." Noah pleaded. The Rangers entered the light beam.

"Please... you can still..." Liam trailed off.

Jules crawled over to Liam who took her in his arms.

"You can still stay."

"No..." She whispered.

"Jules... please..." Jared begged. Asher could only stay silent and squeeze his hands together.

Alicia started to cry and Sonia had to hold her best friend.

Bobby and the others remained silent.

"I knew this would happen. I had to." Jules whispered.

Suddenly, a black rift appeared above them. Slade's voice yelled in fury. "I will end everything!"

"He doesn't know when to quit." Jared said standing up.

"Jared." Jules said. "Reach into my heart and hand me my True Soul. I have to be the one to end this."

Reluctantly, Jared looked into Jules's eyes and stuck his hand in her Soul Gate.

As he passed through Jules's layers of heart, he heard her Heart's voice, which came as music. While Percy's was all violin, Jules's was like a small symphony. It was solemn and hopeful with a tinge of regret and sadness. But it was the satisfying kind of sadness.

As he entered her center, he looked at the ground. It glowed and became a glass picture. A tear escaped his left eye as he realized that the glass picture was of Jules and the other six rangers. Each Ranger was completely colored in their ranger color. They were all smiling with joy...

Jared walked to the very center of the circle and place his hand on the shining orb.

Jared pulled out of Jules Soul Gate, his right arm encased in the usual purple crystal.

As the crystal burst into nothing, Jared held a silver and purple striped flute.

Jared whispered, "Peacemaker's Flute." (Jule's Song)

Jules smiled and took it in her hand. "I've always wanted to play for all of you..."

Now past her limits, it was a huge struggle for Jules. However, she pushed herself to will a black energy disc to form under her feet.

"Looks like we have to do this again Slade." Jules said.

"Jules... please..." Liam whispered.

She turned and hugged Liam.

"You're a great friend, Liam." She whispered into his ear. "Gracias..."

Rising up the sunbeam, Jules pressed her True Soul to her lips and blew. The sound that came out was like nothing they had ever heard before. The music was soothing to the ear and it put everyone into a trance like state. As she played, a rainbow of colored streams rose around her forming a protective shield against Slade's final desperation attack.

"No!" Slade yelled.

Jules kept rising and with her, colored light pushed his evil darkness back. She remembered all the good times with her friends.

Meeting them for the first time... Morphing for the first time, stopping the Twilight and Supernatural on numerous occasions. She remembered going out to hang out for the first time. The experience was so new to her and her friends were right there with her.

So many memories... so many moments... instead of crying that they were over, smiled because they happened.

Facing the mouth of the spatial rift, Jules played the last line of her song and sent out millions of colored waves at the tear and started to close it.

Slade fought to keep it open, but Jules's will was too much for him. Upon the last note, the rift closed completely and the streams of light burst into a rain of sparkles.

Jules's voice echoed.

"Thank you, everyone... I love you all... I'll always be here with you."

Her True Soul started to crack and it too burst into lights. This was the signal... Jules closed her eyes and pictured herself standing with her friends. She felt the high joy of being with them, then felt herself fall into welcoming darkness where a point of pure light waited at the end of the fall...

Jules herself faded into millions of light as well as the sky started to clear even more.

"Jules!" Everyone shouted.

Nothing could be said at the moment. The lights she disappeared into rained down like beautiful snowflakes on a peaceful winter day...

Julianna Sanchez was gone... (Jules's Song End)
