About 40 minutes after the completion of sunset, the four Turbo Zords arrived at the sea. Everyone left their Zord and looked around.
"Let's look for that ship," Tommy suggested.
"It's so creepy out here," Ron complained. "Not that I'm scared or anything." At that moment, he turned around and saw something that made him scream. The others looked to see that Ron found a skeleton. Kim just giggled at her boyfriend's cowardice. It was cute. Ron then calmed himself down and looked for the ship. He saw something on the sea, and he shined his light towards it.
"Hey, I think I found it!" The others came behind him.
"Nice job, Ron" Kim said.
"The Ghost Galleon," Monique said in awe. "It's amazing."
"It's even creepier than this port," Ron said, troubled. He then mustered up his courage and smiled. "But, as a Power Ranger, I can handle it."
Kim smiled at her boyfriend and turned to behold their Zords in the dark again. She smiled, but she saw something that threw her into confusion. There was another set of headlights coming towards them. Because they left their lights on, the others didn't notice. "Hey, guys, check it out."
The others looked over her shoulder in time to see the Mountain Blaster stop behind their Zords. The door opened and they saw a pair of feet coming out from the car.
"Rocky," Ron asked, wondering if he is addressing the person by name.
The door closed, and they saw a familiar face. A young, familiar voice said, "Wow, this is cool."
Kim was the first to become worried. "Justin, what are you doing here?!"
"Rocky couldn't make it, so he sent me."
"What are you talking about," Ron asked.
"Guys, I'm the new Blue Ranger. Isn't that cool or what," Justin shouted.
"What," Kim asked in shock.
"Aw, man, I thought I wasn't going to make it. Alpha and Wade had to give me a crash course in driving. Good thing you don't need a license to drive a Zord."
"Oh, good grief," Monique said. Only she heard what she said.
Kim became concerned and leaned down to face Justin. "Listen Justin, I know Zordon picked you to be the Blue Ranger..."
"He sure did," Justin replied.
"But this could get dangerous! Are you sure about this?"
"Relax! I earned my black belt when I was 8. I'm pretty skilled in martial arts. So, what are we doing here?"
A rattling noise startled all of them, and they turned to the ship. "We'll talk about this later," Tommy promised. "Right now, we have to get aboard that ship." After a few minutes, everyone and every Zord was on the ship. "Everybody onboard?"
"Yeah," Kim said.
"All right, let's check out the ship." They began exploring. Cobwebs were everywhere. The ship looked as if it wasn't used in years. That is because it wasn't. A door suddenly slammed behind them. Although everyone turned around in shock, Ron was the only one to scream. After he saw it was just a door, he turned sheepish. Kim just smiled at him. They continued exploring the ship.
Justin and Rufus found a box that was in the form of a small treasure chest. "Hey, guys, look what we found." Tommy opened the box cautiously. Instead of being hollow filled with gold and jewels, it was a lid that covered five slots. The slots looked similar to the slots inside the Zords.
"Looks like they keys also control the ship," Kim quietly suggested. "I wonder..."
"It couldn't hurt to try," Monique said.
"Let's do it," Tommy said. They placed their keys into the slots and turned them. A light shone from the keys. For a while, nothing happened. Then, Ron noticed something starting to move. He realized what is was.
"Hey, the compass is moving!" Ron said. It was true.
Kim and Monique heard something above the two. Monique was the first to speak out of the two.
"And the sails; they're raising!" Monique said.
"Raising by themselves." Kim finished.
Ron grew more confident in the ship. Kim then turned around and saw a moving circle. She smiled and shouted, "And the helm!"
The ship had set sail and headed out to the open sea. Now everyone was enjoying this trip.
At Divatox's Subcraft, she was looking in her mirror.
"Do I look fat," she asked herself.
Shego then appeared in the reflection and answered, "Nah." Divatox smiled. She and Shego continued admiring their beauty until they heard a warning bell. "Oh, hells bells, what is going on?"
"Sensors detect the presence of five human beings, but no vessel," Drakken shouted in complaint.
"What are they, swimming? We're in the middle of the blasted ocean." Shego said.
"Whatever they're traveling upon, it's totally undetectable!" Duff said.
"Oh no, it must be Kimmie or those Power Pukes no doubt." Shego then grabbed Elgar. "Why didn't the radar alert us?"
At that moment, sparks flew from the radar controls. "Uh, I guess it needs fixing." Elgar replied.
Shego shoved Elgar away. "Never mind. So how do we stop them?" Shego asked.
"I'll just give a little something for Kimmie and those Power Parasites to remember me by." Divatox said. She pressed a button labeled "Pods." Several egg-shaped object the size of small watermelons floated to the surface and attached themselves to the Ghost Galleon.
As the sun set over the ship, Ron was looking over the bow in awe. He didn't notice Kim standing right behind him. "Reminds you of anything?" Kim asked with a smile.
"You remember that movie about the ship and the woman and her jewel?" Ron asked, turning to see Kim.
"Titanic."
"I wanna try something." Ron took Kim's hand and guided her to the bow. "Close your eyes."
Kim did just that and Ron guided her gently onto the bow. Kim giggled softly. "What are you doing, Ronnie?"
"You trust me?"
"Yes."
Ron was silent for a moment before finally saying, "Open your eyes."
Kim opened them and saw that she was in the same position as Kate Winslet in Titanic. She couldn't help but shout out, "Ron! I'm flying!"
Ron took her hands and sung softly, "Come Kimberly, my flying machine. Going up she goes, up she goes." Kim giggled. Ron was both cheesy and romantic. They looked into each other's eyes and kissed.
That night, most of the pods were on the deck of the ship. Justin was looking over the port bow of the ship. Kim came up.
"Justin, where are you? Justin?"
"I'm over here!" Kim approached him and passed by a pod without noticing it.
"Why don't you come down with us? It's getting awfully cold up here."
"I'm way too excited to sleep. I was just thinking, if my Dad only knew, man, he'd be so proud of me. And all the other kids at the shelter..."
"Justin..."
"I know, I know. It's for me the know and them to find out. Rangers Code of Honor. I won't tell anyone."
"Good."
One of the pods increased in size, as did the others...
"I guess my Dad is still up North. He had to close down the Martial Arts Studio after my Mom passed away," Justin said.
"Why did he close it down?"
"He just couldn't focus anymore. Something was missing in his life."
"He'll find it again. He just needs a little time; that's all."
One of the pods opened, followed by the others...
"Yeah, and when he does, we can be a family again. That's important."
"I know, but you have to remember the we're your family now, too. Come here." They hugged. "Okay, don't stay here too long. Even Power Rangers need their sleep."
"Okay." She played with his nose the same way Kat did on the bus. They giggled. She went below deck. Justin felt better, now that he talked about it.
"He's okay," she announced.
"Good," Ron said.
"I'm just glad he's out of danger," Kim said, relieved.
"Come on Kim," Ron said. "Justin can handle himself."
"I know," Kim said, sighing. "It's just that Tommy said this whole thing comes with a risk. I just don't want him to get hurt."
A pod stood up. It had the neck and head of a snake, the scales and spikes of a Stegosaurus, and walked on two legs. The others began to approach Justin, all having the same look. Since they recently transformed to their monster form, they were also covered with slime. At first, Justin didn't notice. Then he saw them and became so frightened that he could hardly speak.
Kim heard a small whisper saying, "Hey, guys." She tapped on Ron's shoulder and motioned him to check on him. He got onto the deck to look for Justin.
"Justin," he asked. Then, they heard a cry. It was not a cry of distress, but a cry of attack. Justin did a spin roundhouse kick and knocked most of pods onto the floor. He looked behind Ron and saw another pod approaching him from behind.
"Ron, watch out!"
Ron saw the monster avoided his offenses and the pod's head struck the bell, getting the attention of the other Rangers.
Ron shouted, "Guys! It's time to rumble!" Everyone came and attacked the monsters, using whatever they could find besides their martial arts talent. Justin used a chain to swing down from one deck to kick a pod towards Ron. Kim and Monique used a net to capture a pod before pushing it off the ship. Tommy kick another off. Two down, four to go.
Ron and Kim were finishing off the pod Justin passed to them. Kim placed the pod's head into a long barrel and she joined with Ron to kicking the monster. Justin did a finish kick the placed it off balance and tripped off the ship. Three down, three to go.
Kim ran to help Monique, who was having trouble with the pod since they both were in a tight space. She punched the pod in the side, causing the monster to look at her. "Monique, give this guy a poor-pounding headache." Monique pounded her fists against the pod's head and they both pushed it off the ship. Later, she discovered she had slime all over her hands.
"This is so gross," Monique complained. Four down, two to go.
One was surrounded by his enemies except for Kim, who was getting another pod off the ship. Tommy jumped in front of the pod. He did several kicks and chops and intentionally missed the target. That sent the pod into dizziness. Tommy merely said, "Boo," and the frightened pod walked to the ship's edge and jumped off. Five down, one left.
That one was still with Kim. Her friends came just as she made to pod back off and said, "If you know what good for you, you'd get out of here, you slimy, sneaky, silly sea serpent!" At the insult, the pod charged. Kim easily avoided the charge, and pod ran the plank. They were all gone.
Monique looked down the ship, gazed at the others and said, "This sure aint the Love Boat."
Most of the others giggled at the joke, but Justin asked, "What's the Love Boat?"
"It's okay, Justin," Kim answered. "You're too young to worry about that kind of stuff."
