Anne was still frightened about their situation. "James, I think we need to get out of here, on our own," She said. "I believe in Kim, but I have a feeling she might be too late."
"Maybe, we can make a blaster out of something and fry that panel," Tim said, pointing to tat a circular panel that Kim was leaning against. This gave Jason an idea.
"That's it. Kim, move away from the wall for a minute."
"Um, okay."
"Instead of making weapons, I think we'd better concentrate on getting this panel off."
"I like the way you think son," James said.
"Um, wouldn't that mean that all the water would come in?" Kim asked.
"Yeah. According to my diving computer, we're at 435 feet. The closer we get to Muiranthias, the Sub is going to start climbing. Once we hit 100 feet, we pop this thing open, and then boom."
"And make it up in one breath?"
He sensed her doubt. "It's our only chance."
"I say we give it a go," Anne said. They all began to knock off the bolts, allowing only three to remain as they are. After a trickle of water came in, everyone knew that they were getting close to success.
The next morning, Kim and Ron were sharing some snuggle time together down below when they heard something outside. "Is that...Thunder?" Ron asked.
"That's weird," Kim said. She then pulled out her Kimmunicator. "Wade, pull up a weather report." The screen showed that it's supposed to be clear today. They then saw some flashes of light from a distance. "Ron, I think I know what that is! Go get the others!" Ron then ran to get the other Rangers.
Divatox and Drakken noticed the flashes of light coming from the front. They knew where they were. "At last, we are finally approaching the Nemesis Triangle!" Drakken yelled happily. Divatox laughed as she looked through the the periscope. "Shego, get ready! Our time is almost upon us!"
"Got it, Dr. D!" Shego replied.
Some water came into the bilge. Jason, Anne, James, and Kim did their best the keep the water from going in, although this act was futile. "We're all going to have to wait until we get through the triangle," Jason shouted over the rushing water. The depth of the water was already, slowly, increasing inch by inch.
"We'd better pass through very quickly," Kim responded.
Kim was on deck when Ron approached her with the others and looked out in front of the ship. "There it is," Tommy said. "The Nemesis Triangle."
It looked like a large tidal wave that extended from one part of the horizon to the other. A lightning storm was over the wave. "It's incredible," Kim said.
"Yeah," Justin agreed. "Whatever is steering the ship sure knows where to go."
Kim realized what he meant. They were heading into the heart of it.
Divatox held the Golden Key in her hand, and announced, "It's time." The ship was knocked a little off balance, startling everyone, and frightening Divatox eel.
"We're just minutes away from the Dimensional Gateway!" Monkey Fist chattered happily.
Lerigot and Yara became extremely concerned.
"Jason! The room's lighting up! What's happening?" Kim asked.
"I don't know!"
"We're about to pass through the gatway!" Jim and Tim said in unison.
Jason pushed harder against the panel. Even though it would have fallen off if Anne, James, and Kim didn't hold it back, it was still pushing from both the force of the Nemesis Triangle and the water pressure. "I don't know how much longer we can hold it!"
A flash of lightning frightened Monique. "Look!" Monique pointed to some debris. It was what was left of a ship that tried to pass through the triangle sometime in the past. They all knew that if they didn't merge the keys at the precise moment, they would end up like the debris.
A strong gust of wind blew a broken board off of the ocean surface. It flew towards them. They ducked in order to avoid it.
"Ron, tell me we ate too much diablo sauce, and we're seeing things," Kim said in worry.
"This time, no," Ron responded. "It's the triangle. It looks pretty nasty."
"Hit the deck," Tommy said, before a bolt of lightning struck the tip of the crow's nest. It appeared undamaged. Tommy looked at the frightened faces of the others before he guided Justin with him to get up.
Divatox ordered Lerigot to use the key and open the gateway. "Do it, wizard. Open the gateway. C'mon, c'mon." She handed Lerigot the Golden Key through the bars of his cell. Lerigot merely shook his head and passed the key back through the bars. That was a symbol to Divatox, knowing that she couldn't be able to work with the key.
"You little runt," Drakken insulted to him. "Open the door," he yelled at Elgar, who opened the door to Yara's cell.
"Don't move, you little hairball," Elgar said. Yara scolded at Elgar in response. Of course, anyone that was not a Liarian who heard her thought that she was growling instead.
Drakken turned to to Lerigot and said, "You may be willing to sacrifice yourself, runt; but how much do you love your little family? Shego, grab the baby!"
"Right! Come here, you little brat." She took Bethel from Yara before she could be able to react to Divatox's command. Shego's hands started glowing.
Lerigot couldn't allow his own child to die, so he agreed to open the gateway. Divatox opened Lerigot's cell and pulled him to the middle, where he started to cast the spell that allowed Divatox's Subcraft to pass through safely.
But the added pressure forced more water into the bilge.
"We need something to pry to panel with," Jason said.
Jim and Tim dived into the water and quickly found a pipe. They emerged and handed it to Jason.
"Good job boys," James said. Jason then started to pry the panel off.
"Okay, anytime, Jason." Anne said, worried.
"I'm trying."
Bulk and Skull watched them stupidly. "We go swimming," Bulk asked foolishly.
In frustration, Jason turned to them fiercely. "Would you guys be quiet?! I'm trying to get us out of here!"
Bulk shook his head to Skull.
Drakken, Shego, Divatox, Monkey Fist, and Duff noticed they were sinking. "We're sinking; we're sinking." Drakken said.
"OK; nobody panic." Shego assured.
Surprisingly, Divatox panicked while Duff, Drakken, Shego, and Monkey Fist stayed calm. "WE'RE SINKING!" Divatox screamed.
Elgar was holding a telephone that could communicate through galaxies and dimensions. "Uh oh, we're sinking. Gotta go," he said to whoever it was on the other line. He hung up. "Uh, for some reason, we're pulling in water."
"OK, now we can panic!" Shego said.
"Water? Water! Water," Divatox complained.
Several more bolts of lightning struck the top of the poles. They appeared undamaged.
"We're getting close to the gateway," Kim said. "We need the keys."
"You guys go below; I'll get the keys," Monique volunteered.
"Be careful," Tommy said.
Monique carefully made her way to the keys, but she had to stop several times due to sudden jolts the ship made because of the wave and the wind. She removed each key one by one, being careful that she placed the keys to the girls in her right hand and the keys to the boys in her left. After grabbing the last key, she turned towards the door below deck.
A large wave that crashed against the ship sent it flying into the ship. Justin and Tommy became minorly wet. The wave, however, struck mainly on Kim, who lost her balance, slid across the ship, and got her ankle caught in a hole. For a while, nothing more happened. "Hey, guys; I'm stuck!" Ron immedaitely went down to Kim. Monique approached Tommy and Justin and made sure they had all five keys while Ron was loosening Kim's ankle. Another wave splashed across their faces, but that didn't slow Ron down.
He removed her ankle and guided her below. Monique passed the appropriate key to the appropriate person. They formed a circle, and were ready to merge the keys, when a barrel struck against Justin's leg, causing him to drop his key. It landed in between some boxes through a narrow opening. "My key, I dropped my key!" He ran to the boxes and reached for the key. It took him a while before he could get a grab on it. They merged the keys at the last second.
A blast of light caused them all to fall backwards. They each felt a weird feeling as the gateway passed through their bodies. A wall of water that symbolized the gateway passed through all of them. They made it through safely. "Boo-Yah! We survived!" Ron yelled happily. He high fived Rufus. Kim smiled. She then reached her Kimmunicator.
"Wade, we made it." Kim said to a blank screen. "Wade?" No answer. "Well, we're on our own now."
The room was almost completely full of water. Anne, James, Jason, Jim, Tim, and Kim took another breath of air and went down. They haven't been able to open the panel yet, but they knew that they were close. Finally, they got it open and gasped for air.
"We have to get Bulk and Skull first," Kim said.
"Okay," Jason agreed. He then turned to the Possibles. "Wait here," They went underwater and opened a door that they would not have been able to reach if the water wasn't there. When Bulk and Skull got into the other cell, all four of them went up for air. Jason then faced the Possibles and Bulk and Skull. "Alright, you all have to exit out slowly, on the way to the surface."
"Swim now," Skull said. "Like a little gubby."
They all took a breath and went through the panel. James went through first with Jim and Tim following him, Bulk went next, Skull slowly followed him, then Anne went through. Kim began to go, but her shirt got caught by one of the screws. Jason had to help her. He was able to release her shirt, and she went on.
Shego realized the source of the water. "What! It's coming from the bilge."
Drakken gasped. "Those Possibles must have escaped! Activate the emergency hatch!"
"Right," Elgar said.
"Now! Quicker, quicker!" Before Jason could be able to escape, the emergency hatch closed his path. Jason also lost his diving computer.
"I hope the drain is not clogged," Divatox said, pressing a button. The water in the bilge greatly reduced to about 4 inches in just a few seconds. The ship stopped sinking and continued on its course.
Jason, floating in the water, soon had no water to float in. He fell on the ground but stood up immediately and instinctively. "Now open the hatch to the bilge," he heard Divatox say. Divatox and Drakken looked at Jason and saw that neither Kim or the Possibles were there. Jason smiled in triumph.
"Those Possibles!" Drakken shouted.
"Well, I suppose Maligore will have to do with just one sacrifice."
