Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 5 and Power Rangers Season 3
Chapter 2: The Big Secret
Six streaks of colored light surrounded the Rangers and seven streaks of white light covered Buffy and her crew and they were carried to the Command Center to meet the Rangers' mentor and assistant. Once they got there, Buffy and the others looked around mesmerized by the control panels and the sentient robot shuffling up to them. Nobody but the Rangers noticed the large head in the giant plasma tube staring down at them.
"Wow!" Willow exclaimed as she looked around the place. "This is so cool!"
"Yeah, it is!" Dawn said looking at the control panels. "I wonder what this button does."
"Don't touch that!" said Alpha as her finger hovered over a blinking green button. She stared at him as he moved her hand down a couple inches to the blinking blue one. "That one you can touch."
"Why can't I touch the green one?" Dawn asked politely. Alpha shuffled his foot, so Billy took over for him.
"Because if you touch that one, we'll lose Zordon forever," he said simply. "We had that happen once, so we don't need it to happen again." Dawn touched the blue one and a hot cup of tea appeared on the panel. "That's a tea maker."
"Oh," Buffy said pressing the same button and adding a touch to a yellow one next to it. "Mm, French Vanilla!" she said taking a sip of her tea. "Who's Zordon?"
"I am," said the floating head. Both Dawn and Buffy yelped and still held their tea steady. "I'm sorry I startled you, my dears."
"Uh, it's nice to meet you and all," said Dawn in a high voice, "but do you have to speak so loudly?" The Rangers laughed. "That's not funny. This never happened to you guys, did it?"
"Yeah, it did once," said Adam. "When Rocky, Aisha and I got her our first time, we nearly wet ourselves."
Rocky laughed. "He's right. Aisha was the calm one around here, so she merely smiled. Adam and I had to change pants after we met Zordon." Buffy glared at the Rangers far worse than Spike did to Tommy. "Whoa, we're sorry, but it's kind of funny seeing you guys jump like that."
"We forgive you," said Tara. "So what's the big secret you guys wanted to show us?"
"This is part one of the surprise," said Tommy. He counted down on his fingers and once he got to one, the alarms blared. "Here's part two. Look at the globe." Buffy and the others looked at the Viewing Globe and nearly got sick. "It looks like Rita and Zedd sent another monster, only this time it's in Sunnydale."
Buffy looked furious. "Oh no she didn't!" she said in her best rich girl way. "Whoever this Rita witch is, she's gonna pay for sending something that hideous into my town. Zordon, I'm the Slayer, so could I go and try to stop that thing?"
"Very well, Buffy," Zordon said. "Go now and may the power protect you." Buffy looked confused but told Alpha to teleport her to where the monster was. After she left, they watched her fight the monster, which was quite humorous to the Rangers and Zordon. "She is very good at what she's doing, isn't she Rangers?"
"Yeah," Kimberly said in astonishment. "She's super good."
"She's Super Buffy!" Willow said excitedly. "I know, it sounds corny." The Rangers smiled and looked at each other. "What? What are you guys doing now?"
"We need Ninja Ranger power, now!" Tommy yelled. In a flash of light, the kids Willow and the others saw were replaced by brightly colored ninjas. "Let's go help our friend, guys." The others held up a fist and they teleported out.
"That's so awesome!" Dawn said. "What do you think, Anya?" Anya, who was paying attention to Alpha's constant movements turned at the sound of her name.
"What? Oh, that was cool," she said. "Okay, I wasn't looking. Oh, look! Some brightly colored people are helping Buffy!" Dawn did a face slap and shook her head muttering about how slow vengeance demons can be.
"Buffy, hold on!" yelled Aisha as she kicked the monster out of the way. "Are you okay?" Buffy nearly jumped out of her skin as she saw a yellow-clad person standing in front of her.
"Aisha, is that you?" Buffy asked. She gasped when Aisha nodded. "Nice costume!"
"Thanks, but you better let us take it from here." Aisha told her. Instead, Buffy ran to the monster and landed a neat dragon kick into its head. "Or you could help us fight, either way it works." She shrugged.
"Alpha, the Rangers are having a hard time out there," Zordon said as Dawn and the others slept on the cots Alpha conjured. "Are the Dino Coins ready for use yet?"
"Not yet," Alpha replied. "The only coin I can get is the Dragon Coin, but I can't find anyone that will take it." Xander bolted up right and ran to Alpha's side right away. "Ay-yi-y-yi-yi!"
"I know someone who could take the coin!" Xander said. "He's a wonderful candidate. He used to be evil, and he's a vampire, but I'm sure he'll do it; teleport Angel to the Command Center."
"Are you sure that's a good idea?" Willow asked. "The last time Angel came around, Riley nearly got killed and Angel almost ended up a pile of dust." Xander told her that his decision was final. "Okay, Xander, but if this doesn't work, then you deal with Buffy's anger." He nodded.
"Teleporting Angel to the Command Center now," Alpha said pressing some buttons.
