Disclaimer: I don't own Power Rangers, Saban created Power Rangers from adapting Toei's Super Sentai series sixteenth installment, Dinosaur Squadran Zyuranger, then from the end of 2001 through May of 2010, Disney owned them until Saban bought the franchise along with its other sister shows Beetleborgs, VR Troopers, and Masked Rider back from them under his new company, Saban Brands But now, Hasbro had as of May of 2018 had purchase the franchise. I am just borrowing them. The only thing I do own is the characters, plots, and other stuff that don't exist in the show.
Author's Note: Hey everyone, and here is the next chapter. As a trivia to those of you that didn't read the originally version, this was the first ever time I had written a Zord fight as this was originally, the first story that I had fully worked on years past prior to my other stories. Now, originally, this chapter was about 20 pages long in length and I thought that I would be adding about ten more pages, twelve at most onto this with the added stuff I was adding in and what not, but in turn, I had added an additional thirty pages on top of what I had already written. Anyway, just make sure you read the Author's note at the end of the chapter. Now without further ado here is chapter three for your reading pleasure.
A New Home, The Beginning Of A New Life
Chapter Three: Paul's First Zord Battle
Well, after what was a long, tiring, adventurous, and stressful day, I was given the tour of the house after having talked with both Kimberly and her mother Gina for a good hour or so. Like Zack said he would, he had dropped by earlier not long after that to drop off some old clothes of his for me to have. But now, I am sitting on my new bed in my new bedroom. As I look around for the millionth time, I can tell that it isn't that much bigger then my old room. The only thing that is missing in here that I had back in my old room is a small personal TV with a VHS player in here.
'Not that I am really complaining as I am just grateful that Kimberly and her mother are giving me this chance at a fresh start in life.' I thought to myself
It seems weird not to be sleeping in my old bed or bedroom for that matter. But, I will get use to it.
'I hope.' I thought to myself
I look up towards the digital clock on the nightstand on the left side of my bed to see that it is about three in the morning and I am fully wide awake. That is partly due to me trying to get use to a new time zone.
'And, if my math is correct on this, it would be about six in the morning back home in Michigan. So normally, I shouldn't have had this difficulty sleeping right now.' I thought to myself
Though, that would partly be the other reason as to why I am still away is because that I had a really bad dream a little bit ago.
"Though, it was more like a nightmare." I muttered
"Hey, what are you still doing up so late?" A voice wondered
Startled, I quickly looked up towards the voice to see that it was Kimberly.
'I must have been so deep in my thoughts that I didn't hear her opening the door.' I thought to myself
Kimberly than walked into the room as she then closed the door behind her as she then walked up over towards me and sat down on the bed next to me.
"I couldn't sleep." I explained
'Which was true, I couldn't sleep.' I thought to myself
"How long have you been up?" Kimberly inquired
I take another look over at the digital clock on my nightstand to do a quick math as to how long I have been sitting here wide awake.
"It's been almost an hour give or take a few." I revealed
"Didn't you try to go back to sleep?" Kimberly questioned
"No, I didn't, because of two reasons." I told her
"So, what are those two reasons?" Kimberly inquired
'Man, is this going to be a twenty question game or what?' I thought to myself
I just sighed as I knew that she wouldn't back down from this.
"Well, one reason is that I'm not use to this time zone yet. It may be three in the morning here, but back home in Michigan, it is six in the morning. So, which means I would be either already up and watching Saturday morning cartoons or trying to get out of bed." I explained
'Which is true, I usually get up at about around that time to watch cartoons.' I thought to myself
"Okay then, what's the other reason?" Kimberly inquired
'Well, I guess she will find out about this eventually.' I thought to myself
I then deeply sighed.
"I um…had a bad dream. Well, more like a nightmare." I revealed
Kimberly then put a hand around my shoulders.
"What was it about?" Kimberly wondered
I just took another sigh.
"Well, it was more of a memory then a bad dream. It was about what had happened that night a week ago when Goldar and all of those other monsters showed up and killed my parents." I explained in a low voice
Kimberly begins rubbing circles around my back as she tried her best to comfort me.
"Oh Paul, I know that it must be hard for you to handle all this right now." Kimberly stated
She then gently had her fingers touch my chin and turned my head towards her as she just gave me a warm caring smile.
"But, just remember that you're not alone. Not now, not ever. You will always have me, my mom, Zordon, Alpha, Tommy, Jason, Billy, Zack, and Trini. We are all here for you for all the good times and bad, just remember that." Kimberly reminded me
I just smile at her.
"I know, thank you Kimberly." I thanked her
"You're welcome, Paul." Kimberly told me
We both then leaned in towards one another as we both then hugged each other.
'I'm starting to think that I am going to be getting a lot of hugs from her, which is just fine with me.' I thought to myself
We stayed like that for a few more moments before letting go of each other.
"Now, why don't you try to get some sleep." Kimberly suggested
"Um Kimberly, can you stay with me, just until I fall asleep again?" I requested
Kimberly just smiled at me.
"Sure, you don't even have to ask me twice." Kimberly told me in a sweet voice
She then got up from the bed as I laid down as she then pulled the sheets over me. She then she walked over towards the other side and got in under the covers as well.
"Now try to get some sleep Paul." Kimberly stated
She then reaches over me and turned off the desk light as to turn the lights off in the room.
"Thank you, Kimberly." I thanked her
I then cuddled up next to her as I laid my head on her shoulder closing my eyes.
"I love you, big sis." I muttered
Kimberly's POV
I just look at Paul with a smile on my face as for probably the first time in the last twenty-four hours, he has a peaceful look on his face.
"You're welcome Paul, and I love you too little Bro." I told him
I then kiss him on his forehead as I then wrapped my arms around him and I then also closed my eyes as I myself begin slowly falling asleep.
The next morning still at the Hart Residence inside Paul's room
Paul's POV
I slowly awake from my slumber as I slowly open my eyes but quickly shut them as the rays from the sun shine through the bedroom window kind of blinding me.
'Next time, I need to remember shut those blinds and curtains.' I thought to myself
I then turned my head over towards the nightstand to look at the clock to see what time it was.
"It's ten in the morning." I muttered
I then looked down by my shoulders as I then suddenly realize that there's a hand over it. I then looked behind me to see that it was Kimberly sound asleep next to me.
'She must have stayed with me the whole night.' I thought to myself
I just smile at seeing this.
'She didn't have to, but I was kind of glad she did.' I thought to myself
I then sat up in my bed as best I could as I gently move her hand off of my shoulder as I turned towards her.
"Rise and shine sleepyhead, time to get up." I called out putting my hand on her shoulder lightly shaking her
'Man, I think I'm starting to sound like my parents when they try to get me out of bed. And that's bad since I am still just a kid myself.' I thought to myself
She slowly opens her eyes and looks at me with a smile on her face as she slowly sat up leaning on her elbows.
"Morning to yourself too Paul." Kimberly muttered
She then yawned as she just rests her head on her hands.
"What time is it anyway?" Kimberly wondered
"It's just after ten in the morning." I told her
She just closed her eyes and groaned for a moment before opening them back up.
"Oh, well, I guess I should get up then." Kimberly mentioned
She then fully sat up and stretched out her arms as I sat up as well as she then turned back towards me.
"So, how did you sleep?" Kimberly inquired
"A little better." I admitted
I then smiled at her.
"And, thanks for staying with me for the rest of the night. You really didn't have to." I thanked her
Kimberly just smiled right back at me.
"Don't worry about it Paul, and besides I wanted to anyways." Kimberly assured me in a sweet and caring voice
She then took my hand in hers and gave it a gentle squeeze.
"Also, you can always ask me to stay with you at night anytime Paul, so don't be afraid to ask me." Kimberly assured me
I just smile at hearing her say that.
"I know, thanks Kimberly." I thanked her
I then reached out to her as I then wrap my arms around her neck giving her a hug. She gladly accepted it and returned it with one of her own. After a few moments, we let go and looked at each other.
"Now, how about we go down stairs and see what's for breakfast?" Kimberly suggested
She then gets up and offers her hand for me to take as I just smile at her.
"I thought you never ask." I told her gladly taking her hand
I then stood up as the two of us then walked out of my room as we then walked towards the kitchen together. Once we enter the kitchen, we then see Kimberly's mom putting some food on the table.
"Well good morning you two." Gina greeted
"Morning mom." Kimberly greeted back
"Morning." I greeted back as well
"Well, breakfast is ready so sit down and eat." Gina informed us as she placed the last two plates of food as she then sat down
Kimberly and I then went over to the table and sat down next to each other across from her mom. I then look at all what was on the table. There are some scramble eggs, bacon, sausage, a picture of orange juice, and a big stock of buttered toast.
'Not what I am normally use to on a normal Saturday morning, but again, I'm not complaining.' I thought to myself
I then grab the empty plate that is in front of me and begin putting some food onto it. I put about three quarters plate full scramble eggs, three pieces of bacon, two buttered toast as I then sit the plate back down in front of me. I then grab the empty glass in front of me as I then grab the picture of orange juice as I then fill up the glass as I then sit the picture back down as I then take a drink from my glass before sitting it back down in front of me. I then grab my fork as I then dab on a few egg pieces onto it as I then lift it up towards my face, but before I took a bit from it, I happen to look up towards Kimberly and her mother to see that the two of them were just staring at me.
"What?" I questioned in confusion
"You sure you got enough food there Paul?" Kimberly inquired chuckling
'I guess its something the both of them are not use to seeing.' I thought to myself
"Yea, I guess I forgot to tell you two that I usually eat more than a normal person would." I revealed
"Well, at least I know you have a good large appetite." Gina mentioned
"Though, I am not sure if I could get use to seeing someone eat that much food at once." Kimberly admitted
"You'll get used to it." I assured her
I then begin to eat my breakfast I happen to see both Kimberly and Gina begin eating as well.
"So, Paul, you ready to hit the mall today?" Kimberly wondered
'Shit, I forgot about that. Both she and Trini were talking about taking me to the mall today to get me some cloths and other necessities when she came by for a visit around the same time as Zack was here yesterday.' I thought to myself
I then begin thinking on it as I then remember who all was going with us too.
'Well, I guess it can't be all that bad, as Tommy, Billy, Jason, and Zack are coming along with us, so it won't be all bad.' I thought to myself
Though, this is a shopping trip with teenage girls involved.
'At least, I hope so anyway.' I thought to myself
"Um, yeah I guess so." I muttered
I then took another bite from of my toast. Several minutes later, all three of us had finished eating our breakfast as Kimberly and I took our plates over to the sink and put them in there.
"So, when did you want to go to the mall?" I inquired
"Well, I was thinking about leaving here about around noon. Trini is supposed to meet us here and then the three of us are going to walk over to the Angel Grove Youth Center to meet the others and then from there go to the mall." Kimberly explained
I just kind of look at her confused.
"Um, what's the Youth Center?" I questioned
Kimberly turned to me smiling.
"Oh, you're going to love it. It's a hangout spot that people here in Angel Grove hang out at to do lots of things." Kimberly told me
"Like what?" I wondered
"Well, pretty much everything really. You can eat, drink smoothies, play games, and there is even a gym area inside of the Youth Center to workout in." Kimberly revealed
'That's kind of cool, kind of like a after school hangout for kids and teenagers. Wish there had been one like that in my hometown.' I thought to myself
I then suddenly, remember something.
'Though, in a sense, there kind of is.' I thought to myself
"Oh, Okay." I stated
I then walked away from the sink as I go to walk out of the kitchen before turning back towards Kimberly and her mom.
"Well, I'm going to get change and go watch some TV. So, just let me know when you're ready to head out." I told her
"Okay, just be ready for when Trini gets here." Kimberly informed me
I just rolled my eyes at her chuckling.
"You know, I should be saying the same thing to you." I mentioned
She just laughed too as I then turned back around and headed for my room.
Kimberly's POV
I just watch on as Paul left the kitchen as I smile a little.
'I know that he is still suffering, but I feel like progress is being made since yesterday.' I thought to myself
"It seems that Paul has become very fond of you in the first twenty four hours." Mom mentioned
I just nodded as I turned around to face her.
"Yeah, I know. And, I feel the same way as well with him." I stated
"He did say his last name was Golupski right?" Mom inquired
"Yeah, he did." I confirmed
I then just look at her kind of confused by that question.
"Why'd you ask?" I wondered
Mom just looked at me for a moment before smiling.
"No reason really. Just wanted to make sure I knew what to say when I had called Zack's mom later today about getting the adoption official without word linking out back in his hometown that he did survived and is living in another state." Mom stated
I just look at her still kind of confused by it, but I shake it off as I get what she is saying.
"Paul and I talked about it with the Rangers before the Red Ranger dropped us off. They said they would take care off the more complicated stuff and had put in a different last name for him so that the info wouldn't get out there. But, they said that one of them would appear at the agency to confirm your story." I explained with a partial lie
Mom just nodded.
"Good to know. Go ahead and get around yourself so that the both of you will be ready for when Trini gets here." Mom told me
I just nodded as I too then walked off to head for my room.
Normal POV
As Gina watched Kimberly walked out of the kitchen, she begins thinking on her earlier thoughts from talking with Kimberly as well as having been up half the night thinking on it as well.
'Could it be possible that he is Frank's son?' Gina thought to herself
A few hours later still inside Paul's and Kimberly's house
Paul's POV
After having gotten dressed in a black T-Shirt with a bit of a goldish stripe on the center of it, blue jeans, socks, and shoes as well as after brushing my teeth, I had gone back downstairs and sat down on the couch as I had then turned the TV on and began watching what there is left of the Saturday Morning Cartoons. About an hour into watching them, I then see Kimberly walk over towards the couch now wearing a pink T-shirt, blue jean pants, and shocks.
'Wow, I didn't think she would get ready this fast. She is defiantly a lot faster in getting ready then my real sister would be.' I thought to myself
"Hey, mind if I join you Paul?" Kimberly inquired
For the second time, I am just stunned by that.
'Now, I'm really surprised.' I thought to myself
"Yeah, sure I don't mind." I stated
Kimberly just smiled as she then sat down next to me on the couch.
"Not that I am complaining or anything, but just wondering why you want to join me?" I wondered trying my best not to sound rude
"Oh, I just wanted to hang out with you in watching TV." Kimberly replied
I just nodded as She then put her arm around my shoulders as I just rest my head on her shoulder. We just stay like that watching TV for about another two more shows when then suddenly hear the doorbell ring.
"I'll get it." Kimberly told me
I just nodded as she then removed her arm from around my shoulders as I sit upright as I then reach for the remote as Kimberly stands up and walks over towards the door. I just watch on from my spot on the couch as I then see her opening the door as we both see that it was Trini.
"Hey Trini, come in." Kimberly greeted as she stepped aside letter her in
"Hey, Kim." Trini greeted back
Once Trini was inside, Kimberly shuts the door as the two of them then walked over towards me as I see Trini wearing a yellow T-Shirt, Blue Jeans, and tennis shoes.
"Hey, how are you doing Paul?" Trini inquired greeting me
"I'm doing alright Trini." I greeted back
I then turned the TV off as I then place the remote down on the couch and look back up to her.
"How about yourself Trini, how are you doing?" I wondered
Trini just smiles at me.
"I'm doing great Paul, thanks for asking." Trini thanked
I just nodded as Trini then turned back towards Kimberly.
"Well, are the two of you ready to go?" Trini questioned
"You bet." Kimberly confirmed happily
"Yeah, sure." I confirmed not much happy about a trip to the mall
I then stood up from the couch.
'But I guess I have to get out of this house eventually.' I thought to myself
The three of us then head for the front door.
"Okay mom, we're heading out now so we will see later." Kimberly called out
"All right Kim, just make sure that Paul has a good time too." Gina called back out
"Don't worry mom, I will make sure of it." Kimberly assured her
'How the hell she will make sure of that with it being a shopping trip is going to be beyond me.' I thought to myself
The three of us then walked out the front door as we then walk off the front porch and walk off as I follow next to the girls as we head for this Youth Center.
Meanwhile a bit later in Angel Grove Park
Kimberly and Trini had decided to cut through Angel Grove Park as I guess according to them, it was the fastest way in getting there from mine and Kimberly's place. As we walk around, I just take in the size of this park.
'This is defiantly a lot bigger than the one in my home town of St. Johns, that's for sure.' I thought to myself
I then also begin realizing something.
'Scratch that, since there are in sense, two parks in my hometown, its most defiantly bigger then the two of them combined.' I thought to myself
"So, what do you think of Angel Grove Park so far Paul? pretty cool right?" Kimberly inquired
I then looked back towards both her and Trini.
"Yeah it is, and it's a lot bigger than the two in my hometown put together, that's for sure." I admitted
'Well, it's safe to say that I will be spending a lot of my weekends here knowing Kimberly and the others as well as I have gotten to know them in these past twenty-four hours.' I thought to myself
Meanwhile inside Lord Zedd's Palace
Lord Zedd uses his enhance vision to look down at the Earth and spots Kimberly, Trini, and Paul walking through Angel Grove Park.
"So, both Kimberly and Trini are showing that new littlest Power brat, Paul around town huh?" Lord Zedd wondered
He then runs his fingers over his metal chin.
"Well, let's give them some exercise then." Lord Zedd mentioned
Lord Zedd then turned around and faced the Putties who were just standing nearby on another balcony.
"Putties, go down to Angel Grove Park, and give those three Rangers something to do." Lord Zedd ordered
The Putties just nodded as they all then disappeared from their spot as Lord Zedd then turned back towards the Earth.
"I know that those clayheads will be defeated by the three of them, but it will give me the chance to see how this new Ranger handles himself against them." Lord Zedd mentioned
Meanwhile back in Angel Grove Park
As the three of us continue to walk around the park, I happen to notice a lake nearby.
'So, this park has a lake attached to it. That's kind of cool.' I thought to myself
"You know, this is a great day to be walking through the park." Kimberly mentioned
"Your right Kimberly, this is a perfect day, nothing can go wrong." I agreed
Suddenly, just after I had said that these walking grey dudes that appear to be made out of clay and with the letter 'Z' placed on its chest just appeared out of nowhere.
"I just had to open my big mouth, didn't I?" I wondered
"Oh, no Putties." Kimberly complained
'In a way, kind of makes sense for a name for dudes made out of clay.' I thought to myself
"Paul, hit the 'Z' on their chest. That's their weak spot" Trini explained to me as she got into her fighting stance as well
"No worries." I assured her as I then get into a somewhat fighting stance as well
'I may not know much about martial arts, but I know how to throw punches and kicks when need too.' I thought to myself
Kimberly then came closer to me as she stayed in her fighting stance.
"Paul, I want you to stay close to me." Kimberly instructed
'Man, why do I have this feeling that she is going to be way over protective of me?' I thought to myself
"Um, I may be new to all of this and all, but it might be best if we spilt up a bit to spread them out more." I suggested
"Kim, I agree with Paul on this one." Trini agreed with me
Kimberly just sighed.
"Yeah, your right." Kimberly agreed
Kimberly then turned towards me.
"Just be careful and call out if you need help." Kimberly instructed
'There she goes again.' I thought to myself
"Right." I agreed as I know that this is no time to argue with her
We then see the Putties come straight for us as Trini and Kimberly rushed off in different directions as I stayed put as the Putties spread out themselves leaving me with about five to six of them.
'My kind of odds.' I thought to myself
I quickly see a lone Putty was about to throw a punch at me, but I blocked it with my left hand as I then balled up my right hand into a fist as I then throw the strongest punch I could muster directly at the center of its chest hitting the 'Z' on its chest as the Putty falls down to the grown as I then see the 'Z' beginning to glow white before it quickly then shattered into a million pieces.
'That's kind of cool. Just like a video game character in a sorts' I thought to myself
Normal POV
As Paul, Kimberly, and Trini continue to fight off the Putties, a shadowing figure just stands on top of a tree branch over looking the fight taking place.
"So, what Goldar has said was true." The shadowy figure muttered
Kimberly's POV
I stop running as I turned towards the Putties that had followed me to see that there were about six of them.
"Let's go claybrains." I told them as I then got into my fighting stance
One of them then came straight at me throwing a punch straight towards my face as I quickly block it, as I then punched it in the chest with my other hand as I then quickly swung it backwards elbowing another Putty in the chest sending it to the ground before grabbing a hold of the Putty's arm that was in front of me and flipping to the ground as I then see two more coming towards me from either side as I then quickly did a split kick striking the both of them in the chests sending them both crashing to the ground as well. I then happen to see the last two Putties come straight at me from behind me and in front as I quickly did a backflip over the Putty that was coming from behind as the two Putties collide with one another as I then kicked the Putty in front of me in the back causing them both of them to fall to the ground on top of one another. I quickly looked over towards where Paul was to see that he was still battling about four Putties himself as I quickly see two Putties quickly coming up from behind him.
"Paul, two coming right behind you." I called out
I then quickly rushed over towards him to help out.
Paul's POV
Hearing Kimberly's warning, I quickly drop to the ground and stuck my legs out as I spun around as best as I could as I manage to kick the legs out from under the two Putties sending them crashing to the ground as I quickly got back onto my feet as I then see Kimberly rushing over towards me as we see two more coming our way as Kimberly and I looked at each other and just nodded as we quickly turned back towards the final two Putties as we quickly kick each of them in their chests as they all fall to the ground as they both begin glowing white before shattering into a million pieces.
"Thanks for the assist sis." I thanked my new sister
"Anytime little bro." Kimberly assured me putting a hand on my shoulder
Normal POV
Trini was surrounded by the remaining Putties as she side step the two in front of her to avoid their punches as she then swerved to her right to avoid being kick by the two behind her as she then got in front of all four of them to see that the four of them were standing directly behind one another.
"You claybrains are making this too easy for me." Trini mentioned
She then quickly kicked the Putty in the front on the center of its chest as it then fell directly into the Putties behind it as each one hits the other as all them ends up hitting the 'Z' on the either's chests as they all fall to the ground. Suddenly, all four of them begin glowing white as they all then shattered into a million pieces.
Paul's POV
Once we all made sure that all of the Putties were gone, Kimberly and I quickly regrouped with Trini.
"Hey, are you two okay?" Trini inquired
"Yeah I'm fine." Kimberly assured her
She then turned towards me.
"Are you okay too Paul?" Kimberly asked me
"Yeah I'm fine too." I assured the both of them
I just begin looking around.
"Just trying to figure out something." I muttered
'Which is true, I'm trying to figure something out about that fight earlier.' I thought to myself
"What's that?" Trini inquired
"That attacked just now, something was off about it." I told her
"Paul, what are you talking about?" Kimberly inquired
I just ignore her as I'm just trying to rack my brain on all of this.
'Zedd must have done this as a test to see how well I can handle myself in an unmorphed fight.' I thought to myself
As I continue to look around, I then happen to notice something a few yards from us by a big tree. Without thinking on it, I then begin running over there to see what it was.
"Paul, where are you going?" Kimberly inquired
I just ignore her as I keep running towards the tree. Once I got to, I look down towards the thing I saw from where I was standing earlier to see that it was a piece of paper tape to the tree. I then happen to see Kimberly and Trini run over towards me.
"Paul, why did you run off like that for?" Kimberly questioned
I decided not to answer her right away as I then reach out and grabbed the piece of paper off the tree to see what it said. I folded it open to see, but what I discovered on it just confused me even more as it just looked like the only thing that was written on it was some sort of symbols. I then looked over towards Kimberly.
"Here, take a look at this Kimberly." I told her holding it out for her to take
She took it from me while giving me a weird look. She held it out for both her and Trini to take a look at it. Both of them then quickly get the same puzzled looks on their faces that I had gotten from looking at it earlier.
"This doesn't make any sense at all." Kimberly admitted
"I know but, it does appear to have some sort of message written on it." I pointed out
"Paul is right Kim, maybe we should call the others and get to the Command Center and have Alpha and Billy translate this." Trini suggested
"Yeah you're right Trini." Kimberly agreed
The three of us then look around to make sure no one was around as Kimberly then reached for her Communicator.
"Jason, this is Kim come in." Kimberly said into the Communicator
"Go ahead Kim, I read you." Jason said through the Communicator
"Jason, myself along with Paul and Trini were attack by Putties just moments ago in the park and we just found this piece of paper by a tree with some sort of message written with symbols on it." Kimberly said into the Communicator
I then reached for my Communicator.
"Jason, its Paul. We all should meet up at the Command Center so we can work on translating this note." I said into my Communicator
"All right, we will meet you guys there." Jason said through the Communicator
"Right, see you guys in a few." I said into my Communicator
"Okay guys, let's go." Trini stated
"Right." Kimberly agreed
I just nodded in agreement as well as the three of us quickly look around one more time to make sure no one was watching as we all then reach for our Communicators and teleported out of the park.
Meanwhile back inside Lord Zedd's Palace
Lord Zedd just stared down towards the Earth, having seen the entire fight as well as Paul discovering the piece of paper on the tree as Goldar just stood behind him.
"Yes, I knew that little brat would find that note on the tree. Everything is going according to plan." Lord Zedd stated
"Master, what was the purpose of that letter for?" Goldar inquired
Lord Zedd then turned around and faced Goldar.
"You will find out soon enough Goldar." Lord Zedd told him
Lord Zedd then walked down the steps from the balcony and stood next to Goldar.
"QUAZOR, GET IN HERE!" Lord Zedd shouted out
Suddenly, Quazor, the same monster with a blue body that looks a lot like a ninja with a ninja katana attached to his back walked into the throne room.
"What is your bidding my master?" Quazor inquired
Lord Zedd then faced him.
"Quazor, go down to the mountains just outside of Angel Grove and take care of those Power Rangers, but make sure the Gold Ranger is the last one to be taken care of." Lord Zedd instructed
"Um master, not to insult you or anything, but isn't the Gold Ranger already dead?" Quazor inquired
Quazor took a quick look at Goldar before turning back towards Lord Zedd.
"I mean I was there along with Goldar and the other monsters he summoned when we struck him and his wife down." Quazor pointed out
Goldar just sighed lowering his head and shaking it as Lord Zedd just glows an even darker shade of red.
"You fool, that isn't the original Gold Ranger I am talking about. It's his son. He is now the new Gold Ranger." Lord Zedd informed him
Quazor quickly took a few steps back.
"My apologizes sire." Quazor apologized
He then bowed down towards him.
"I shall not fail you." Quazor promised
"You have best not." Lord Zedd warned him
Quazor just nodded not daring to say anything more.
"Now go and destroy the Power Rangers Quazor." Lord Zedd ordered
"Yes sire, as you command." Quazor stated
Quazor then disappeared. Lord Zedd then turned around and walked back up the stairs towards the balcony overlooking the Earth.
"Soon, very soon the Power Rangers will be destroyed and there will be nothing, nothing no one can do to stop me. HAHAAHAHA!" Lord Zedd declared laughing evilly
Meanwhile inside the Command Center
After Trini, Kimberly, and I had met up with the others in the Command Center, we had handed the note to Billy as he and Alpha begin working on translating it as Billy just scans each symbol with some kind of scanning device. Kimberly walks over towards them.
"Have you two been able to find anything out about that note yet Billy?" Kimberly inquired putting a hand on his shoulder
"Not yet, but we should know something soon." Billy admitted
"It shouldn't be too much longer now." Alpha mentioned
'I'm not sure how to make all of this out. For some strange reason, I believe that the note is address to me and not to the others.' I thought to myself
Suddenly, I am snapped out of my own thoughts by a hand being placed on my shoulders as I turned towards it to see that it was Kimberly.
"Is something on your mind Paul?" Kimberly inquired
"I'm just thinking about that note, for some reason I have this feeling that the note is address to me." I explained to her
"Whys that?" Kimberly wondered
"I really wish I knew Kimberly." I admitted
Kimberly just gave me a worry smile as she just strokes my face with her gentle hand.
"Hey guys, the computer just gave the results of the scan from the note." Billy called out
We all turned towards him.
"Well, what does it say Billy?" Jason inquired
"Paul, if you want to be with your parents again, meet me in the mountains just outside of Angel Grove and come alone." Billy read
'I knew it, that note was address to me.' I thought to myself
"No way, Paul is not going to go alone I won't allow it." Kimberly declared
'Man, I'm going to get tired of her being overprotective of me real fast.' I thought to myself
I took in a deep breath as I then looked over towards her.
"Kimberly, listen to me, I know that this sounds like a trap, but I will be fine." I assured her
'But, I know she won't hear of it.' I thought to myself
"No Paul, I am not letting you go to the mountains alone and get yourself killed." Kimberly informed me
'Yep knew it, she wouldn't hear of it.' I thought to myself
All of a sudden, the alarms began going off.
"What's going on, Zordon?" Jason questioned
"We have trouble Power Rangers, behold the Viewing Globe." Zordon told us
We turned around to see what's up. The moment I looked at the Viewing Globe, I went into complete shock
'It can't be.' I thought to myself.
Inside the Viewing Globe was the same blue body monster that looks like a ninja that appeared in my house that night with Goldar and those other monsters.
"This is Quazor, he fights like a ninja warrior, but he doesn't fight with honor like all ninjas do." Zordon informed us
"Zordon is right guys, Quazor doesn't fight with the ninja honor, and he just uses his ninja skills to kill for pleasure." I explained
'I can remember him well now. I am not sure as to why I haven't been able to remember what happen that night, but suddenly, I'm slowly remembering what happen that awful night.' I thought to myself
"Paul, what are you talking about Hun?" Kimberly wondered in a worried voice.
"He…he was there…that night." I stuttered
I took in a deep breath trying to calm my nerves down a bit.
"He was the one that killed my parents, while Goldar and several other monsters watch." I concluded
I just took in another sigh.
"I also be willing to bet that he was the one that sent that note." I added
'Though, I am not for certain that it was him that made the killing move on both of them, but I know he was responsible in helping with their killings.' I thought to myself
"Paul, why didn't you..." Kimberly began to say
"Look, now is not the time Kimberly." I stated interrupted her
She just stares at me.
"We need to stay focus here." I reminded her
She sighed and just nodded realizing that I am right about this.
'I can tell that she wants to talk about this some more, but now isn't the time.' I thought to myself
I then take in a deep breath realizing that my earlier plan from what that note stated isn't a smart move as I then looked towards the others.
"Look guys, I'm not sure if I can do this by myself, so I'm going to need all of you to help me with this." I stated
Zack was the first to come over and place a hand on my shoulder.
"Don't worry bud, we will always have your back." Zack assured me
I just smiled and nodded.
"Rangers, before you go, I have something to give Paul to help him out for this battle as well as for future battles." Zordon stated
I just looked at him confused.
"What is it Zordon?" I questioned
"Paul, you will more than likely have to go into a Zord battle as well, so Alpha and I are giving you what you need going forward as a Power Ranger." Zordon revealed
I just looked at him still kind of confused.
"What's that?" I wondered
I then see Alpha walk up in front of me.
"Paul, like your father before you, you will be carrying a enchantment talking Gold Saber know as Xavier." Alpha revealed to me
Alpha then walked over to the main console and began pushing a few buttons.
"Xavier well assist you in battle as well as help you control the Gorilla Zord." Alpha explained
"Extend your hand Paul and accept your father's old weapon and all that has been granted to you." Zordon instructed
I did as I was told and raised my right hand up into the air. Moments later, golden energy surrounds my hand for a few moments before suddenly, a golden saber appeared in it as I slowly then brought it down as I just take a good look at it. It had a head on it that resembled a Gorilla on the top of the handle.
"Wow, this is new, I have never seen anything like this before." I mentioned
"It's nice to meet you Son of Frank." Xavier greeted
I looked at it in shock and confusion.
'A talking sword?' I thought to myself
"You can talk?" I questioned it
"Well I don't bark, so I would say I can talk." Xavier explained in a sarcastic tone
'Oh man, this is starting to get really weird for me.' I thought to myself
"Man, I'm starting to think I'm in a cartoon or something." I mentioned
"Rangers, you must go to the mountains and take on Quazor. Good luck Rangers, and may the Power protect you all." Zordon told us
"All right guys, let's get to work." I told them
The rest of them nodded in agreement.
"IT'S MORPHIN TIME!" Jason yelled out
"GORILLAZORD!" I yelled out
"DRAGONZORD!" Tommy yelled out
"MASTODON!" Zack yelled out
"PTERODACTYL!" Kimberly yelled out
"TRICERATOPS!" Billy yelled out
"SABER-TOOTHED TIGER!" Trini yelled out
"TYRANNOSAURUS!" Jason yelled out
Meanwhile in the mountains just outside of Angel Grove
Once Morphed, we teleported to the mountains just outside of Angel Grove and land in front of Quazor.
"Gorilla, Gold Ranger." I called out getting into a fighting stance
"Dragon, Green Ranger." Tommy called out getting into a fighting stance
"Mastodon, Black Ranger." Zack called out getting into a fighting stance
"Pterodactyl, Pink Ranger." Kimberly called out getting into a fighting stance
"Triceratops, Blue Ranger." Billy called out getting into a fighting stance
"Saber-Tooth Tiger, Yellow Ranger." Trini called out getting into a fighting stance
"Tyrannosaurus, Red Ranger." Jason called out getting into a fighting stance
"Power Rangers." We all called out
I happen to look at my belt to see that Xavier was in a holster in the same spot that the Blade Blaster was holstered in yesterday.
'That Blade Blaster must have just temporary.' I thought to myself
"Well, if it isn't the Power Rangers." Quazor greeted
"Quazor." I muttered with a small hint of anger in my voice
"Well Gold Ranger, I see that you saw through my little trap." Quazor mentioned
"That's right blue boy, and I am going to make you wish you never messed with me or my family." I told him
I just stare at him with anger in my eyes as I just feel angrier by the second.
'Though, he can't see my eyes at the moment.' I thought to myself
"You have no family kid, Goldar, myself, and our other friends made sure of that. Hahahahaha!" Quazor stated with an evil laugh
I just get even more pissed off at just hearing those words.
"THAT'S IT! I'M GOING TO MAKE YOU WISH YOU NEVER CAME BACK TO EARTH!" I shouted
I then pulled out Xavier from its holster and held it out in front of me as I then charge right in towards Quazor.
"PAUL NO!" The others yelled out calling out towards me
I just ignore their pleas as I just kept on charging in towards Quazor. I than brought Xavier up and then brought it down to slash down on the center of his chest, but, he was able to quickly block it with his sword. We were suddenly locked in a standoff, trying to pushing the other back while keeping a tight grip on our weapons.
"I see you have some skills young Ranger, but skills won't be enough for you to take me down. I'm a highly skilled ninja. Hahahaha!" Quazor stated with an evil laugh.
"You maybe a skilled ninja warrior, but you don't fight like a ninja." I mentioned
I then push forward a little causing him stagger back a few inches.
"You fight with no honor, and that's just pathetic." I added
Quazor just laughed evilly.
"The only one here that's pathetic is you Gold Ranger." Quazor stated
He then drew his sword back from mine and quickly kicked me in the stomach hard as I fall to my knees. He picks me up by the neck.
"Just like your father was." Quazor added
He then threw me several yards away from him as I hit the ground hard. I let out a few coughs to catch my breath as I then struggle to get back up to my feet as the others quickly rushed over towards me.
"Paul, you okay bud?" Zack questioned as he helped me stand back up
"Yeah, I will be fine." I assured him
"You shouldn't have rushed in like that Paul." Kimberly reminded me in a worried voice
"I know Kimberly, I just let my anger get the best of me back." I admitted
I then took in a deep breath to calm myself now knowing that rushing in headfirst isn't the best choice in a fight like this.
"Now, let's take this guy down." I told them
"Right." The others agreed
"You pathetic Rangers, even with all seven of you together fighting me, you won't be able to take me down. Hahaha!" Quazor stated with an evil laugh.
"We will see about that Quazor." Jason told him
Jason then looked at the rest of us.
"Alright Rangers, bring out your Power Weapons." Jason instructed
Jason, then brought out a sword while Trini had brought out two small daggers, Billy with two lance style weapons, Kimberly with a bow, and Zack with an axe as Tommy pulled out some weird kind of dagger from his holster as I also ready Xavier once more.
"Power Sword." Jason called out
"Power Daggers." Trini called out
"Power Lance." Billy called out
"Power Bow." Kimberly called out
"Power Axe." Zack called out
"Dragon Dagger." Tommy called out
"Xavier." I called out
Quazor just grunts as he then comes charging in at us.
"Here he comes." I mentioned
Jason and I held out our weapons as Quazor swung his sword at us as we quickly blocked it as Tommy, Trini, Billy, and Zack swung their weapons striking him in the chest as Kimberly then produced a pink energy arrow as she then fired it at his back causing him to go to his knees.
"Nice try Rangers." Quazor stated
Quazor then quickly jumped up into the air and landed several yards away from us as we all regrouped together facing him.
"But, you'll have to do better then that to defeat me." Quazor added
Meanwhile back inside Lord Zedd's Palace
Lord Zedd was using his enhance vision to watch the battle unfold down on Earth.
"Good, everything is going as plan." Lord Zedd muttered
Lord Zedd stopped spying on Earth as he then turned around to face his Throne Room.
"GOLDAR GET IN HERE!" Lord Zedd shouted out
Goldar quickly walked into the throne room and bowed down towards him.
"How may I be of service, my Lord?" Goldar inquired
"Goldar, send down the Putties to Angel Grove Park and have them attack everyone there. With any luck, it will split up the Gold Ranger from the other Rangers." Lord Zedd instructed
"As you wish Master." Goldar stated
Goldar then turned around and walked out of the Throne Room
Meanwhile back in the mountains just outside of Angel Grove
The seven of us quickly jumped up into the air and formed a big circle around Quazor as he slowly moved around him.
"You think this trick is going to stop me Rangers?" Quazor questioned
Before we could reply, we then hear our Communicators go off as Jason quickly reached for his.
"Go ahead Zordon, I read you." Jason said into the Communicator
"Jason, Lord Zedd has just sent down some Putties to attack the people in Angel Grove Park." Zordon said through the Communicator
"Got it Zordon." Jason said into his communicator
Jason then looked at the rest of us.
"Guys, we will have to split up." Jason informed us
'Jason's right on this one. And, by the sounds of it. It may be better if all of them go and deal with the Putties.' I thought to myself
I then looked at all of them.
"Listen, you guys go help those people in the park, I'll stay here and take on blue boy here." I told them
"Wait a minute." Kimberly stated
She came over and puts a hand on my shoulder.
"Paul, are you sure about this?" Kimberly wondered
'Huh, she isn't fighting this as strongly as she did earlier.' I thought to myself
I just nod my head.
"Yeah I'll be fine go I well call you guys if things get bad." I assured them
"Okay, just be careful Paul, and call us if things heat up." Jason instructed
"You got it Jason." I agreed
Jason just nodded as he then looked towards the others.
"All right Rangers, let's go." Jason told them
"Right." The rest of them agreed
Just then the six of them then touched their Morphers on their belts as they then teleported away.
"You're going to wish that you never stayed behind by yourself Ranger." Quazor told me
"We'll see about that Quazor." I stated
Meanwhile back inside Lord Zedd's Palace
Lord Zedd just chuckles evilly as gripped the railing.
"Excellent, it worked out just as I had planned on." Lord Zedd stated
Lord Zedd then made his Growth Bomb appear in his hand.
"Now, Quazor, grow and finish off that child Ranger." Lord Zedd ordered
Lord Zedd than threw the Growth Ball down towards Earth.
Meanwhile back in the mountains just outside of Downtown Angel Grove
As Quazor and I just stare down one another, I then happened to looked up at the sky and saw a silver ball like device flying down towards Quazor as quickly catches it in mid-air.
'What in the hell is that thing? And where did it come from?' I thought to myself
"Perfect, your end is near Gold Ranger." Quazor declared
He then took off the top piece of the ball and then threw the ball down to the ground right next to him as it then exploded. Suddenly, Quazor grew thirty stories tall.
"WHAT THE HELL!?" I yelled out
"Now Gold Ranger, your destruction is near." Quazor stated
Meanwhile in Angel Grove Park
Kimberly's POV
Suddenly, Jason, Trini, Billy, Zack, Tommy, and I teleported into the park and see the Putties just running around as the citizens quickly run away.
"Look there they are." I pointed out towards them
"Okay guys, let's take care of these clayheads fast and go back and help Paul out." Jason instructed
"And remember, aim directly for the 'Z'." Tommy added
"Right" The rest of us agreed
We all then charged in and split up as we all began taking on the Putties.
Meanwhile back in the mountains just outside of Angel Grove
Quazor lifts his giant feet up into the air as he then begins bringing it down towards me as I quickly jump out of the way just seconds of the foot stomping on the ground.
"Man, that was a close one." I muttered
I then quickly stand back up.
"Okay, I guess now is a good time as any to take it up to the next level." I mentioned
"Ready when you are Paul." Xavier confirmed
I just nodded as I then raised Xavier into the air.
"I need Gold Gorilla Thunder Zord Power, now." I called out
Suddenly, I then see the Gorilla Zord charging down through the mountains.
"YES, ALL RIGHT! IT WORK! WHOA HOO YEAH!" I yelled out happily jumping up and down
Meanwhile back in Angel Grove Park
Normal POV
Several Putties quickly surrounded Tommy as he then quickly extends his left leg up and kicks each of them in the chest sending them all crashing to the ground as he then spun around and kicked the last one to the ground.
"You clayheads seem to be just as stupid as Rita's." Tommy mentioned
Over with Zack, he began fighting off Putties standing around him. He quickly blocks a Putty's attack before side punching its chest sending it crashing to the ground before striking another Putty in the chest before striking it on the back as it goes crashing to the ground as well. He then turned towards three more Putties standing in front of him as he faced the one on the left and struck it on the chest with a double punch before doing a spinning kick sending the Putty that was standing behind him flying off several feet away before it crashed onto the ground. He then quickly turned towards the Putty on his right as he blocks its attack with his arm before kicking it in the chest sending it crashing to the ground as well.

Meanwhile back in the mountains just outside of Angel Grove
Paul's POV
"All right, let's do it." I stated
I then jumped off the ground and land on top of the Gorilla Zord's shoulder.
"Okay, time to get to work." I stated
I looked a Xavier for a minute and nodded as we both then turned our attention towards Quazor.
"Gold Gorilla Zord, Gorilla Mode, battle ready now." Both Xazier and I called out together
The Gorilla then charges right in towards Quazor.
"Xavier, I never done this before, but we'll get it together." I assured him
Just then, Quazor fired at us as the blasts struck the grown below the Gorilla Zord causing some a small explosion below but doesn't faze us.
"It's getting a little warm out here, I'm going inside." I mentioned
I then jumped down into the Gorilla Zord's cockpit.
"Much better, now it's time to send this guy packing." I stated
The Gorilla Zord quickly charged in and quickly swung its right arm as it strikes Quazor in the face sending him flying to the ground.
"Uh, sucker punched by a rampaging gorilla." Quazor muttered holding his face
"Gold Gorilla Zord, convert to Warrior Mode now." I called out placing Xavier into the empty slot in front of me
Just then, the Gorilla Zord's legs straighten up as the body folds upwards as the arms also twisted around becoming more straight as the Gorilla's head comes off and attaches to the chest with its mouth open as a Warrior's type head appeared on top.
"Oh yea, powered up and ready for action." I confirmed excitedly
"You think that thing is going to stop me, you're out of your mind." Quazor said pointing his sword towards me
He then swung his sword around as he then charged in towards me.
"Gorilla Sword." I called out
Suddenly, the Gorilla Zord's Gorilla Sword appeared in its hands as I then have my Zord charge in towards Quazor as we begin clashing weapons with one another. I then was able to get his sword down to his side as I then have the Gorilla Zord, Warrior Mode twirl its sword on his sword before bringing it up quickly and slashed down on Quazor while his guard was down.
"Xavier, I what the Gorilla Zord to follow my every move." I instructed
Suddenly, the Gorilla Zord roared as I then punched the air inside the cockpit as the Gorilla Zord, Warrior Mode then punched Quazor in the chest, I then did a front kick inside the cockpit as the Gorilla Zord, Warrior Mode then kicked Quazor in the chest sending him flying to the ground as he then quickly stood back up.
"Oh, that was most impressive young Paul." Xavier commented
"Thanks Xavier." I thanked
I then looked back towards Quazor as he struggles back onto his feet.
"Now, let's take this ninja freak out." I mentioned
Meanwhile back in Angel Grove Park

"You want to fight you got it." Jason told them
A Putty then tried to punch him, but Jason quickly sidestep it as he then kicked the Putty that was in front of in the chest sending it stagger off to the side before sending a strong punch to another Putty's chest sending it flying to the ground.

"I don't have time to monkey around with you clayhead." Tommy mentioned
Tommy quickly draws out his Dragon Dagger as he then points it towards the Putty and fired a green energy beam from it straight at it as it hits the Putty in the center of its chest as it then staggers around the edge of the tree branch for a moment before falling over hitting each tree branch before it finally landed on the ground. Over with Trini, she saw a Putty come straight for her as it then swung its arm at her, but she quickly ducked under it as she then raised her hand up to block its arm from hitting her as she then grabs it and used her other hand to place it on its back as she then shoved it forward sending it flying off as it then crashed into the pond.
Meanwhile back in the mountains just outside of Angel Grove
Paul's POV
I then see Quazor charge back in towards my Zord.
"Xavier, got any ideas?" I inquired
"Yes, try the Gold Gorilla Thunderbolt." Xavier suggested
I just nodded as I turned around and see several spheres handing on the wall behind me as I then grabbed one of them.
"Now, it's time to heat things up a little." I mentioned
I then inserted the sphere into the slot on the console in front of me.
"Gold Gorilla Thunderbolt armed and ready." I confirmed
Quazor stopped charging in and stared at me in shock.
"Uh-oh." Quazor muttered
"And fire." I commanded
Just then, the Gorilla Zord, Warrior Mode fired three fireballs from its mouth as they all then hit Quazor straight on sending him flying to the ground once more.
"Direct hit, all right." I cheered pumping my fist into the air
"Don't think this is over Gold Ranger." Quazor stated
Quazor then stood back up and aimed his sword straight at my Zord.
"Take this." Quazor stated
He then fires an energy ball from his sword right at me and the Gorilla Zord as it hits the Gorilla Zord straight on causing the cockpit to shake around and sparks fly around a bit.
"Whoa" I cried
The blasts were so strong that it forced the Gorilla Zord to into transformed back into Gorilla Mode as I then go flying out of the Gorilla Zord with Xavier in my hand as I then land on the ground. As I sat up and looked up I then see Quazor slowly advancing the downed Gorilla Zord.
"Oh my, that didn't go very well." Xavier stated
"Tell me something I didn't know." I told him
I then stood back up as I then looked at Xavier.
"Contact Jason." I instructed
Meanwhile back inside the Command Center
Alpha and Zordon were watching Paul take on Nimrod and her two monsters through the Viewing Globe to see that he wasn't fairing too well against them.
"Ayi yi yi yi! Zordon, Paul is in trouble." Alpha cried out

"Red Ranger, this is Xavier, come in please." Xavier said through Jason's Communicator
"Yeah, I read you, go ahead." Jason said into his Communicator
"Oh, thank goodness I finally was able to reach you. The Gold Ranger and I are having difficulties against Quazor. He is much stronger then the last time I myself and his father fought him, we need back up right away." Xavier said through Jason's Communicator
"Right, I'm on it." Jason said into his Communicator
"Go ahead bro, we got this." Zack assured him

Suddenly, I then see Jason arrive in his Red Dragon Thunder Zord.
'Now, that's a cool looking Zord.' I thought to myself
"Red Dragon Thunder Zord, convert to Warrior Mode now." Jason called out
Suddenly, the Red Dragon Thunder Zord then transformed as the four legs transformed into the arms, tail turning into the feet as the Dragon's head folds down to the center of the chest revealing a warrior's head.
"I need Gold Gorilla Thunder power now." I called out
I then raised my hand into the air as a Gorilla Sphere then came flying in from the sky as I then catch it. I happen to look over towards where the Gorilla Zord was lying on the ground as it struggled to get back up.
'Come on, you can do it.' I thought to myself
Suddenly, the Gorilla Zord then pounds the ground with its fists as it then fully stood back up as it then pounds its chest roaring into the air as it then charges in towards Quazor.
"Alright, time for a little tag team of our own." Jason mentioned
Jason then had the Red Dragon Thunder Zord Warrior Mode hopped onto the shoulders of the Gorilla Zord. The Gorilla Zord then roared loudly as it pounds on its chest a few times before charging right back in towards Quazor. As both Zords charges in, Jason then had the Red Dragon Thunder Zord, Warrior Mode begin twirling around its Thunder Staff.
"You think that's going to stop me, think again." Quazor stated
The Red Dragon Thunder Zord, Warrior Mode then stopped twirling its Thunder Staff as it then stuck it out straight forward as they charge past Quazor striking him in the chest causing him to stagger back a few feet. The Gorilla Zord quickly stops as it then turned around and jumped up into the air and raised both hands up turning them into fists and striking Quazor in the face sending him flying to the ground.

"Go ahead Zordon, we read you." Tommy said into his Communicator
"Rangers, Paul and Jason needs your help. Alpha and I have modified the Thunder Zords assault team to combine with the Gorilla Zord to form the Mega-Gorillazord. You need to get to them right away." Zordon said through the Communicators
"Let's get moving then." Zack stated
"Yeah, I agree." I agreed
"Tommy, your powers have weakened, I advise that you return to the Command Center to converse your powers." Zordon said through the Communicator
Tommy just sighed as Trini and I place our hands on his back.
"Right Zordon, I'm on my way." Tommy said into his Communicator
"Tommy, Zordon's right. You need to conserve your powers." Trini mentioned
"Yeah, don't worry. The rest of us will help Paul and Jason in finishing off Quazor." Billy assured him
"Right, I'll see you guys soon." Tommy stated
We all nodded as Tommy then teleported out of the park.

Meanwhile back in the mountains just outside of Angel Grove
Paul's POV
Suddenly, I then hear my Communicator beep as I then reached for it.
"Yes Zordon, I read ya." I said into the Communicator
"Paul, have Jason remove his Zord from the Gorilla Zord's shoulders and convert it back to Warrior Mode. Billy, Trini, Zack, and Kimberly are on their way to you guys now and by combining with the Thunder Assault Team, you will form the Mega-Gorillazord. It should have enough power to defeat Quazor." Zordon said through my Communicator
"Right, I'm on it." I said into the Communicator
I then looked up towards Quazor.
"Alright Time to heat things up a little." I mentioned
I then jump off from the hill I was standing on and land on the ground.
"Jason, disengage. Time for a new battle plan." I called out
"You got it bro." Jason confirmed
Jason then had the Red Dragon Thunder Zord Warrior Mode hop off the Gorilla Zord as I then quickly jump up into the air and hopped back inside the Gorilla Zord's cockpit.
"Mega-Gorillazord, transformation sequence now." I called out as quickly placed Xavier back into the empty slot in the console in front of me
Just then, the Gorilla Zord's legs straighten up as the body folds upwards as the arms also twisted around becoming more straight as the Gorilla's head comes off and attaches to the chest with its mouth open as a Warrior's type head appeared on top. Suddenly, we then see Billy, Zack, Trini, and Kimberly arrive in our area inside their Zords. They then appeared in front of the Gorilla Zord, Warrior Mode as the transformation began. Suddenly, the Gorilla Zord's shoulders fold down as the two arm pieces from the Lion Zord's back attaches to it while the main body attaches to the back of the Gorilla Zord. The Gorilla Zord's legs then folded up as the Unicorn and Griffin Thunder Zords then formed the legs as the Firebird Thunder Zord wrapped around the Gorilla Zord's right arm. Suddenly, a helmet folded over the Gorilla Zord's Warrior Mode's head as it latches in place before the top part of the helmet rises up created red eye holes completing the transformation as Trini, Billy, Kimberly, and Zack entered the main cockpit with me.
"Mega-Gorillazord, online." Trini, Billy, Kimberly, Zack, and I confirmed
"Whoa, now this prodigious." Billy commented
"Yeah, this is totally awesome." Zack agreed
"You guys ready to take Quazor?" I inquired
"You know it little bro." Kimberly agreed
"Yeah, let's do it." Trini added
We then had the Mega-Gorillazord charge in towards Quazor.
"Oh big deal, that doesn't scare me take this." Quazor stated pointing his sword at us
He then started firing several energy blasts at us but it didn't affect our new Mega-Gorillazord as it just keeps on advancing towards him. We then suddenly see Quazor stand back up.
"I'm not defeated yet Power Rangers." Quazor declared
Quazor then swung his sword around for a moment before jumping up into the air as he raises his sword up before bringing it back down to strike us but we had the Mega-Gorillazord punch him in the chest sending him flying off backwards before he crashed onto the ground.
"All right guys, let's finish this." I mentioned as I grabbed a sphere from behind me
"Right." Trini, Billy, Kimberly, and Zack agreed as they did the same
The five of us then inserted the spheres into the empty slots in front of us.
"Umm can we talk about this?" Quazor inquired
"Firebird Mega Punch." Kimberly, Trini, Billy, Zack, and I commanded
Just then, the Mega-Gorillazord launched the Firebird Zord then turned it into a real firebird as it then flew right straight through Quazor as he then fell to the ground and exploded.
"Yes, all right." The five of us cheered together giving each other high fives
"Oh yeah, now that was awesome." I cheered happily
"You said it Paul, that was sweet." Zack agreed as we clasp hands
The Firebird Thunder Zord then came flying back towards us as it then wrapped around the Mega-Gorillazord's arm once more. Jason then had his Zord walk over towards us as we then had our two Zords shake hands with one another.
"You did awesome today bud." Jason commented
"Thanks Jase." I thanked
Meanwhile back inside Lord Zedd's Palace
Having seen the defeat of Quazor by the hands of the Rangers, Lord Zedd begins glowing an dark shade of red as he just pounds on the balcony railing in frustration.
"NOO, THOSE RANGERS DESTROYED QUAZOR! THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING!" Lord Zedd yelled out
Lord Zedd then quickly turned towards Goldar as he then points his staff towards him.
"AND, IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT BOLT BRAINS!" Lord Zedd shouted towards him
Goldar just bowed down towards him.
"I'm sorry my Master, it won't happen again." Goldar apologized
Lord Zedd then walked down the stairs and stands right in front of his face.
"You have better not." Lord Zedd warned him
Goldar just nodded as Lord Zedd then walked over towards his throne and sat down.
"Next time, next time, those Power Rangers well not be so lucky." Lord Zedd muttered
Meanwhile a while later inside the Angel Grove Youth Center
After the battle and sending the Zords back to their hiding places, we all went to the mall. We probably spent about three hours in total at the mall with two of them hours having been spent on both Kimberly and Trini picking out new cloths for me.
'Granted, I did need some new cloths do to me coming here on such a short notice with only the clothes I wore and the clothes that Zack had given me.' I thought to myself
But what kind of irritated me the most was that Kimberly was a little bit picky at what I picked out every time.
'Though, I guess all girls are like that.' I thought to myself
After those two hours from hell, we at least got to do something other than shop for clothes as we all had then gone to the entertainment store inside the mall as Kimberly had told me that her mom gave her permission and the money to allow me to pick out a couple of movies that I wanted.
'To which, was really the only bright side of the entire trip to the mall.' I thought to myself
After having left the mall, we all had went to the Angel Grove Youth Center to hang out for the rest of the day. After getting there, we had gotten out of the cars that we took, we all walked inside, once inside, I just take a good look around the place.
"Whoa, this is an awesome place." I muttered
As I looked around, I see a counter where a big guy who is wearing an Hawaiian shirt along with an apron is behind it serving some drinks to a few teenagers as I see other teenagers and kids sitting at some of the tables as I also see a few arcade games sitting near the edge of the counter as I looked down and see a gym/workout area with some weight machines and what not.
"So, this is where you guys hang out at on a regular basis?" I inquired
"Yeah, pretty much." Kimberly confirmed
"So, what you think of the place Paul?" Trini inquired
"It's awesome, there isn't really a place like this back home in Michigan." I stated
"Really?" Tommy inquired
"Yep." I confirmed
Then suddenly, one place back home does ring a bell.
"Okay, I'll take that back, there are a couple of places that could be consider hangouts in my hometown." I admitted
"What?" Zack wondered
"A roller rink and a bowling alley." I revealed
They just nodded as we then see the big guy that was behind the counter just moments ago walks up towards us.
"Hey guys." He greeted us
"Hey Ernie." The others greeted him
Kimberly then puts her hands on my shoulders gently turning me a bit to have me look right at him.
"Ernie, this is my new little brother Paul." Kimberly introduced me to him
Ernie just kind of looked at her confused.
"What you mean Kimberly?" Ernie inquired
"To make a long story short, my mom is adopting him to give him a fresh start in life." Kimberly explained partially true
Ernie just nodded in understanding as he then extended his hand out to me.
"Hi, it's nice to meet you Paul." Ernie greeted me with a smile
I smile back and shake his hand as well.
"Same here and it's nice to meet you as well Ernie." I greeted back
"Hey Paul, you should try one of Ernie's smoothies." Zack suggested to me
"Sure, I guess. I never had one before." I admitted
"Well then, what would you like to try?" Ernie inquired
"Well, what flavors do you have for me to choose from?" I inquired
"All kinds, I have orange, blue raspberry, strawberry, cherry, banana just to name a few." Ernie explained
I think about it for a moment before looking back at him.
"Can I get a blue raspberry smoothie?" I requested
"You got it." Ernie told me
Ernie then walked off to go and get it as we go over to a nearby table and sit down.
"You never had a smoothie Paul?" Zack wondered
"Never." I admitted
"Well, you will love them once you have had one of Ernie's smoothies." Kimberly informed me putting a hand on my shoulder
'I hope she is right.' I thought to myself
We then see Ernie walk on over towards our table as he then sits the smoothie down in front of me.
"Here you go Paul." Ernie told me
"Thanks." I thanked
I then took a sip of it.
"Wow, this is really good." I stated taking another sip
"Told ya." Kimberly told me
"Yep, you were right Kimberly." I admitted to her
Ernie just smiled at me as he then looked at the others.
"And, the usual for you guys?" Ernie inquired
"Yes please." Trini confirmed
"Coming right up guys." Ernie stated
Ernie then walked off to go and get their smoothies as well. I then take another moment and look around the place as I then begin started getting lost in my own thoughts.
"You okay, Paul?" Kimberly wondered
I then turn back around and looked at her and the others.
"Yeah, just got stuff on my mind is all don't worry about." I assured
"Well just know you can talk to us." Kimberly told me putting her hand on my shoulder
"Thanks Kimberly." I thanked
Meanwhile later that night back at the Hart-Golupski residence in Paul's room
Normal POV
Inside Paul's room, Paul was lying in his bed tossing and turning like he is having a bad dream.
"Mommy, daddy, no." Paul mumbled tossing around
Suddenly, Paul quickly opened his eyes as he quickly sat up panting.
Paul's POV
As I sit panting on the bed I take in several deep breaths as I run my hand through my hair.
'Not again.' I thought to myself
I sighed as I reached over and turned on the light on the nightstand to put some light in my room as just sit there trying to calm myself.
"Why are you still up Paul?" The voice inquired
I looked up towards the voice to see that it was Kimberly standing next to the door wearing her pink nightgown.
"I couldn't sleep." I admitted
Kimberly shuts the bedroom door as she than walks over towards me as she then sits down on my bed next to me.
"You had that dream again, didn't you?" Kimberly inquired
I just sighed and nodded.
"Yes." I muttered
Kimberly gives me a worried smile as she then puts her arm around my shoulders.
"Paul, talk to me, please." Kimberly pleaded
I just sigh as I could also begin to feel my eyes watering up.
"I just…I just don't know what to think Kimberly." I muttered
"Come here, Paul." Kimberly told me as she then pulled me into a hug
I quickly hugged her back tightly as I just started crying on her shoulders.
"Shhh. It's okay Paul. Everything will be okay." Kimberly assured me in a caring voice as she kissed my forehead as well as rubbing circles around my back for comfort
After having cried on her shoulders for a few good long moments she then gently pulls away from the hug back keeps a hand on around my shoulders as she also gently wipes away a few tears that were still falling.
"Paul, listen to me. I know that you are going through a rough time right now, but just remember that you can always come and talk to me anytime, day or night." Kimberly reminded me
I just smile at her as I wiped away the last of my tears.
"I know Kimberly, thanks." I thanked
"You're welcome Paul." Kimberly assured me
She then moved her arm away as she then gently laid me back down on the bed as then pulled the covers over me.
"Now, try and get some sleep Paul." Kimberly suggested
She then went around to the other side of the bed and crawled into the covers as well as well.
"Kimberly, you don't have to stay with me if you don't want to." I mentioned
"I know but I want to." Kimberly revealed as she then reached over me and turned off the lights
I just smiled at her.
"Night Kimberly, I love you, big sis." I told her
I then closed my eyes and slowly begin falling asleep.
Kimberly's POV
I just look at him sleeping as I can see a more peaceful look on his face.
"Good night Paul, I love you too little brother." I muttered
I then kiss him on the forehead as I then wrap my arms around him and close my eyes as I also begin to slowly fall asleep as well.
AN: There you are the third chapter for this story. Hope you all enjoyed this one. Now, originally, the next chapter that had come after this one had revealed a big part of Paul's past to not only himself, but the others as well, but I am pushing that one back as to properly build up to it. So, which means a brand-new chapter is being written for the next one to come out so it will be a while before I get to it, but I will be working as much as I can it done in a timely fashion. So, until next time, please R&R.
