Drew was conscious again. He had a migraine and held his head.

Kiki tried to wake up, but the dream was pulling her in. She saw the Zords getting stomped and trashed until nothing was left. She was crying over their dead bodies. Friends. People like family to her. All gone. But her.

"Well, did the poison work...," she asked him. Tur- Pod nodded and swung his tail.

"It should get into their minds pretty soon. Then, the toxin will slowly eat their insides."

"Very well," she laughed.

"Master will be pleased."

"Everyone, give Dana space," demanded Kim. They all shuffled behind the door to keep guard, but she was really having none of it.

Dana put in the antidote. "It should wake them up. Could be a few days..."

"They can't dehydrate. Need plenty of fluids. Keep them up and don't let them pass out."

"Yes," said Kim sadly as she glanced at 'her' kids.

They were just children, not Rangers. Just teens in colored suits sworn to battle against demons like this one. But, none of them really asked for it.

They were chosen.

There was a huge weight when she asked them to accept.

It was testing her nerves.

She's basically their parent in this war.

Tommy leaned against her. He was worried too. What if there was a next attack? And a next...?

Who was to guard the city...?

They were all older and wiser now.

Not teenagers in shape.

The others better get back.

And soon...
