Oye, been a while since I updated this one. I really gotta get back to it. Can't believe it's been almost two whole months since I last updated this one. Oh well, creative funks suck sometimes, but there's nothing you can do about it. So back to work! (rolls the Disclaimers in)
Disclaimers: I don't own Power Rangers as it is a product of Hasbro Industries.
All seven of the Rangers slowly advanced into the still-being-constructed building, remaining on guard as Rocky spoke up. "This place gives me the creeps."
"I heard that." Aisha was in a hundred percent agreement with him.
Billy took a battle stance as he rounded a corner, not finding anything as he continued with the others. "I've got a bad feeling about this place."
Evie nodded in agreement. "Right with you, Billy."
The group kept walking for a bit before they heard something that got them to get into defensive stances momentarily before they relaxed only slightly.
"Anybody see anything?" Kimberly asked as they looked around.
Tommy thought quickly. "We need some light." He looked to Aisha, who nodded, understanding his thoughts.
"Activating Power Beams." Her helmet's eyes became larger and turned on like flashlights as she led the group further into the maze like building.
Evie couldn't help but think of what it was like when she first entered the labyrinth on Edenoi.
Upon the young woman's arrival by the cave entrance, she immediately took her hoodie off and tied it around her waist. "Oh man. Zordon didn't tell me how hot it was here." She looked around as she heard a bike driving up to her and it stopped a couple feet away, a greenish black figure getting off and going to her as she tilted her head. "I'm guessing you're the Edenoi Prince?"
The figure nodded to her. "That's right, miss. I'm Prince Dex." He held his hand out to her as she grabbed his hand and shook it. "We don't have much time to lose. From what Zordon told me, we could run into trouble at anytime."
She nodded in understanding. "Then let's get going." She headed for the main entrance, Dex following her as the two heroes started through the maze.
Unknown to them at that moment, Lord Zedd had been watching from the moon castle. "What?! Zordon has another brat under his wing?! It's getting so you can't deal with kids on just Earth anymore! Finster, that monster had better be ready!!"
"Coming right up, Lord Zedd." Finster lead a wax-like monster into the room.
"I'm Wickermook and it's a great pleasure to be of service, Lord Zedd!" The monster bowed to the head honcho.
Zedd nodded. "Good. I've got a little job for you."
"They've gotta be around here somewhere." Tommy's voice brought Evie out of her thoughts once again.
"Activating Power Scope!" Rocky turned his visor into a scanner as he looked around.
Tommy looked at his red teammate. "Talk to me, Rock-o. Whaddya got?"
"The readings are all over the place." Rocky reported to him. "I don't know what these purple creeps are made of, but I can't lock them down."
"Alright, stay alert." Tommy told everyone as they kept advancing forward, not realizing they were being followed until Evie caught movement out of the corner of her eyes as Rocky got a good reading. "Over there!"
"I knew it." Evie took a battle stance quickly.
"Let's power up!" Tommy shouted as the team nodded in agreement.
Aisha saw more coming. "Here they come!"
The clones moved in and the battle was on again as Tommy roundhouse kicked one and each Ranger split off to fight their own individual groups.
Kimberly started kicking a clone. "You guys make me sick-sick-sick!" She kicked it one last time into the ceiling and it crashed to the ground with a bell sound.
Billy flipped outside and roundhouse kicked a clone twice before kicking it upside the head [Ding-dong!] and sending it flipping to the ground.
"Whoa!" Evie was tossed through a wall and rolled on the ground before getting up and seeing a couple of clones following her. "Ha! Kyah!" She kicked one back hard before delivering a high kick to a second, being knocked down by a third and kicking it in the face. "Back off!" She flipped to her feet once again. "Hyah!" She saw a fourth coming in and got ready.
"Have a nice flight!" Tommy suddenly flipped in and kicked it high on to another level.
Evie high-fived her leader. "Nice one."
The Rangers then saw another clone coming, so they jumped up and spun around, going to a higher point as Tommy spoke. "Later, dudes!"
The duo landed on the floor before Evie saw another clone coming. "Watch your back!" She got Tommy out of the way and punched the clone in the gut several times.
He followed up with a powerful kick that sent the clone flying into a pillar and causing it to splatter.
Aisha was fighting another clone as she punched it back, taking a stance before she flipped over and kicked it into some construction pillars, making it splatter before she posed. "Gonna be one messy night."
Rocky and Adam flipped to the ground, followed by two clones and backing up before Adam looked at his red-clad teammate. "Up and over?"
"You got it!" Rocky flipped over the clones with Adam before both boys knocked the clones back, one trying to sneak up behind them.
"Rocky, behind you!" Adam front-flipped over the Red Ranger. "Going airborne!" He bicycle kicked the clone and landed before turning around.
"These guys don't know when to quit!" Rocky knocked another back before he looked at the one between himself and Adam. "Double whammy?"
"You're on!" Adam nodded.
The clone watched as both of the Rangers came at him before looking directly at the camera. "Uh-oh!" The kicks from both Rangers caused its head to squish and its eyes to bug out before it collapsed to the ground.
Billy was tossed down with a shout by a clone, grunting as he hit a pillar and turning around. "That does it. Stego Stinger!" He fired a line from his gadget and rappelled back up. "Did you miss me?" He threw the clone down onto a grate and it splattered upon its landing.
Aisha kicked a clone back before dashing off as Kimberly stepped forward. "Pterodactyl Thunderwhip!" She shot her whip at the clone and knocked it back before wrapping it around another clone. "Have a nice trip! See you next fall!" She threw it off and hit another clone before she slung it out again, hitting a fourth clone. "Buh-bye." She reeled her whip back in. "Gotta love it."
A clone ran at Tommy and Evie as they worked together, tripping it up before another ran at them.
Evie looked at Tommy. "Need a boost?"
He nodded. "Sure!"
She promptly kicked him into the clone as he rapidly kicked it back before sending it into a pillar and squashing it.
Aisha knocked down another clone before she was kicked back by another one, grunting as she hit the ground.
"Hold on, Aisha!" Billy rappelled in, kicking the clones in the head as he passed them. "One, two, three, four, five, six!" He landed and turned around. "Aisha!" He quickly flipped over to her and held his hand out to help her up. "You okay?"
"These guys are tough." Aisha accepted his helping hand.
"Let's finish these purple parasites!" He told her.
"You said it!" She agreed with him before the duo flipped backwards onto the ledge, the remaining Rangers following after them as Tommy and Evie did some fancy flipping from their higher point, landing in the middle of everyone as the seven heroes watched the remaining clones regroup.
Tommy pulled out his special weapon. "I want you guys to meet Saba!" He threw Saba as it circled around the clones before flipping up to the crane above and blasting the hook, causing the container to fall on the clones with a final splat.
"Yeah!" The group stood triumphantly before Tommy spoke up. "Now let's go find Ivan."
Suddenly, their suits started fizzling, with even Saba disappearing.
"Hey, what's happening?" Kimberly was confused as she, Adam, and Rocky demorphed.
"We're losing power." Billy spoke worriedly as he and Aisha powered down.
"This effect never happened before." Evie was nervous as she and Tommy were the last to lose their powers.
"What's going on?" Kimberly looked at the others.
Billy tried to call the command center. "Alpha, come in." He looked at the others with more worry when he didn't get a response.
"Something's wrong." Aisha looked at everyone.
"Bet you guys anything that the base was attacked by tall, dark, and gruesome while we were here." Evie frowned a bit.
"Come on, guys. We'd better get back there." Tommy led the team out of the area quickly.
And things went from zero to depressing in less than fifteen minutes. That's an academy record! Read and review, guys. And again, sorry for the hiatus. Creative funks being brought on by depression and chronic boredom. Anyway, catch y'all later.
