Dedication: To all of you, who've stuck around for the last year and a half to read this, thanks!
An: Wow, this is it. All that's left is the epilogue and the Variations series is over. I feel really sad to see this wonderful chapter of my life end, but I look forward to many more projects. All you Syd and Sky fans, no worries, I'll continue to write them! There will be a few chapters in a few weeks that will get MA version done, but I'll post updates about those on my profile.
"Naw...that's impossible."
"Hey...anything's possible."
"You really think so?"
"...I know so."

"THIS IS IMPOSSIBLE!" Vampra raged. "Viper gave me your energy! You shouldn't exist!"
Shaking her head, Sydney cocked it to the side and stared at him. "Oh, I know he did," she grinned sardonically. "But I hate to tell you, it won't be enough for you to rule the universe with. Good always beats evil, always restores the balance."
Vampra stared at her before a thought crossed his mind. 'I need all six of them dead'. "Your deaths will give me the power to rule all!" he laughed, announcing his intentions.
"We won't die quietly!" Jack shot back, the team moving to stand with Sydney.
Sky quickly held out her crystal to her, smiling when she plucked it from his hand and tucked it back into her morpher before curling her now empty hand against his. As soon as they touched, a bright light exploded. The team and Vampra covered their eyes. Inside the light, Syd and Sky drew together. "What the hell happened?" Sky muttered.
Sydney grinned when Jack, Brian, Z and Bridge appeared next to them. "What's going on?" Jack asked, confused.
"Your link has been reestablished," a voice announced.
"Guys," Syd grinned. "Meet Zordon of Eltar."
Brian's mouth dropped open while the others looked slightly confused. "The legendary mentor," Brian murmured, sinking to a knee.
"White Dragon," Zordon spoke, smiling. "You look very much like your parents, young one."
The White Ranger swallowed convulsively. "Thank you."
"Zordon, why are you here?" Jack breathed.
"To give you the keys to defeating Vampra." The Rangers looked anxious. "Combine your weapons, both physical and spiritual."
"Thank you," Sky told him before the light started to die down, and the Rangers started to disappear.
"May the power protect you, Rangers."

"Commander! Look!" Aaron called out, pointing to the Rangers as they reappeared.
Anubis turned and saw the six Rangers standing before him and the others, unharmed. "Let's do it!" Jack called.
"SPHINX FLAME THROWER!" Sky called, tossing his weapon into the air where it began to float.
"TIGER'S ROAR SONIC BLASTER!" Z went next, her blaster attaching to the top of Sky's weapon.
"PHOENIX FIRE SWORDS!" Sydney's voice rang out as she attached her swords to the front of Sky and Z's weapons, creating a crossbow like base.
"PANDA QUAKE PAWS!" Bridge announced. The talon tipped gloves that usually appeared on his hands attached to the ends of Syd's swords.
"DRAGON'S ICE SAIS!" Brian cried out, grinning. His sais attached to Syd's swords, closer to Sky and Z's weapons then Bridge's.
"PEGASUS WIND NINJA STARS!" Jack went last, tossing his weapons up and watching the six stars attach at various points on the others' weapons.
The six came together with Jack and Sky holding the main portion of the weapon. Syd and Brain were on Sky's side, while Z and Bridge were on Jack's. "FIRE!"
A burst of fire, energy, ice and wind flew from the weapon, heading for Vampra.
"You think you're puny weapon can defeat me? Think again!" Vampra laughed. Using his own powers, he dodged the attack and caught the team off guard with one of his own.
Their weapon broke apart and they were flung back away from each other. "I don't think that was supposed to happen!" Aaron gulped as the other Junior Rangers and Anubis surged forward.
"I'm so over his dumb ass!" Jack growled as he struggled to his feet with Aaron's help.
Ally helped Syd up, the Senior Pink Ranger emitting a pissed off aura. "Time to stop playing," Syd hissed. "Ally, get the others and get them back." The Junior Ranger nodded and backed off, signaling for her teammates to follow.
"Syd?" Sky called, sensing her anger.
"I'm done being played with!" she told him. "This ends now."
The Blue Ranger swallowed hard and moved to her, the other four members of their team following. "What's the plan?" Z wanted to know.
"We give it all we've got," Sydney grimly announced. "We're the only ones who can stop him. This has to end, or he's going to hurt more people."
"We need to use our ninja powers," Brian murmured.
Bridge cleared his throat. "If we drop our Ranger powers, a blast like he's capable of could kill us."
"That's a chance we're going to have to take," Jack spoke up. "Are we in agreement?" The others nodded.
"POWER DOWN!" Syd ordered.
"POWER DOWN!" the others called a beat later, their Ranger suits dissolving and revealing them in street clothes.
"Commander, what are they doing?" Alana asked, panic rising in her voice.
Anubis shook his head. In his heart, he knew, but he didn't want to accept he may lose his children. "Commander?" Aaron called.
Taking a deep breath, Anubis moved to Ally, knowing she was going to react to what he was about to say. "They're going to sacrifice themselves, if need be, to stop him."
The Pink Ranger lowered her head, not wanting to see the man she loved die. The other Junior Rangers watched on in shock.
"THE PEGASUS!"
"THE TIGER!"
"THE PANDA!"
"THE DRAGON!"
"THE SPHINX!"
"THE PHOENIX!"
"NINJETTI!"
Each Ranger began to glow with their color as they called upon their animal spirits.

Across town, the former Rangers gathered together. Wes and Jen had joined them ten minutes before, leaving the current Rangers' family to wait together, helplessly. "That's some light show," Zack remarked when an array of colors shot into the sky.
Five gasps were let out, followed by Rocky, Adam, Aisha, Billy and Katherine falling to their knees. "GUYS!" Wes called to them. Tanya jumped forward to steady Adam, while Justin moved to Rocky, Zack to Aisha, Trini to Billy and Jason cradled Katherine against him.
"What's happening?" Jen wanted to know. In all her years since her first morph, she had never felt so helpless.
"Sydney's rejoined them," Kat gasped. "They're going after Vampra." Wes and Jen's eyes locked, worry building between them for their son and his team.
"I am the Ape, mighty and strong," Rocky whispered, seconds before he began to flow red. His thoughts settled on Jack, and the connection they shared as Red Rangers.
"I am the Bear, cunning and fierce," Aisha gasped, closing her eyes and concentrating her thoughts on Z.
"I am the Wolf, silent and sure!" Billy announced. An image of Sky danced before his eyes, unseen by the others, and he silently prayed the current Blue Ranger found the guidance he needed.
"I am the Crane, agile and graceful!" Kat's thoughts centered on her daughter, hope and worry soaring together.
"I am the Frog, courageous in spirit!" Adam grinned, thinking of Bridge. Despite their difference in color as Ninjas, they had a connection through another color, Adam having been green twice before.
"May the Falcon, just and able, watch over him," Jason, Trini, Zack, Tanya and Justin spoke, centering their own thoughts on Brian.

Vampra began to feel uneasy when the six Ninja Rangers lit up with their Ranger colors. Syd and Sky stood in the circle made by the other four. Between each of the others, familiar spirits began to appear; a red ape between Jack and Bridge, a black frog between Bridge and Z, a yellow bear between Z and Brian, a blue wolf between Brian and Jack, and in the circle with Syd and Sky, a pink crane and a white falcon appeared.
Syd and Sky joined hands, staring into each other's eyes. "Well, at least we're all together if its got to end like this," she grinned even as she blinked back tears.
Sky shook his head at her and brought one of her hands to his lips. "True. Syd?"
"Yeah?"
"Whatever happens, remember I love you, and I wouldn't change anything that's happened with us."
Sydney's tears spilled over her cheeks. "Sky, promise me something."
"What?"
"If we make it through this, that we can get married before next year starts."
Sky grinned. "Deal."
"I love you," Sydney whispered. "All of you. Let's do this!"
"POWER RANGERS!" the six called, releasing the power they'd been building between them.
"YOU WILL NOT WIN!" Vampra screamed as the power flew toward him.
"NOW AARON!" Syd ordered the Junior Red Ranger.
Aaron, Alana, Travis, Brett, Ally and Anubis fired their weapons at Vampra, causing a massive explosion on impact.
--
"They made it, right?" Jen asked. The other former Rangers didn't answer her, their gazes on the plume of black smoke in the distance.
"I sure hope so," Wes muttered, pulling his wife against him.
Kat groped for Jason's hand, their fingers meshing together as they held on tight. "Please, God, let them have survived," the former Pink Ranger whispered.
