Inside the Aquabase lab, Carter is currently being hooked up to a monitor as the others watched from he the side of the glass. Carter looks down at his wrist, which is has a different morpher.
Mis. Fairweather, Hayden and Chad looked up at Captain Mitchell as they were ready for the test. "Here we go." Mis. Fairweather said as Carter nodded in reply.
"Titanium Power!" Carter calls, trying the new morpher. The power surge coursed through his body as the Titanium morphers tries to put the suit on the red Ranger. Lights flashed and Carter doubles over in pain, struggling. Finally the lights stop flashing and Carter falls to his knees as he breaths heavily.
The others run towards Carter, Mis. Fairweather and Captain Mitchell right behind them.
"Carter, are you ok?" Mis. Fairweather asked.
"I got you buddy." Joel said as he and Chad help him up.
"Yeah, I'm ok." Carter breathed, not looking ok.
"Are you sure?" Dana asked with worry as Carter leaned heavily on Joel and Chad, sweat pouring off Carter.
"Yes and no." The red Ranger breathed.
Joel and Chad helped Carter out of the room, Dana and Hayden fussing over Carter.

"I don't think we should continue testing the titanium powers." Mis. Fairweather said as Captain Mitchell sat down behind his desk. "The circuitry is too powerful for an ordinary human."
Captain Mitchell picks up the morpher and Mis. Fairweather sighs before she walks out of the office. "It would have been fantastic." He said, she stops and turns to him.
"It truly would have." She agreed. "Good night, Captain."

Hayden rolled over in her bed, glaring at the big red number that glared right back saying midnight. "Agh." She couldn't sleep at all. "Ryan's birthday." She breathed in a whisper. "Agh, why resist?" She said as she pushes her blankets off her, she slid out of her bed.
XxXxXxXxXXxXxXxXx
"Always creepy during the night." Hayden shivered as she walked through a hallway. Her pajamas are new and her favorite since they actually fit this time. A pajama set called Cozy Escape Pajamas.
Hearing her father's office door slid open, Hayden pauses. "What?" Turning around she heads to the office. "Dad?" She calls as she walks up to the door and it slides open, revealing a man wearing a black wetsuit with a flashlight. "Hey, who are you?" She demanded.
"Out of the way, little girl." He told her. "Before you get hurt."
"You." Hayden got into a fighting stance. "Might wanna rethink that. Intruder."
The intruder sets the picture frame of the Mitchell family. "And you may want to rethink about challenging me."
"You're in the Power Rangers base, friend." Hayden said, backing herself towards the wall where the lights-switch is. "All I have to do is, hit the alarm button."
"I'm not afraid." The intruder said, moving towards her. "And I'm defiantly not afraid of a kid." He charged, Hayden quickly his punch before front kicking him in the chest, she turns around before thunder kicking him. He catches her leg and shoves her up to the ceiling where she spins around and comes back down. He kicks her in the arm, before knocking her towards the couch.
"Agh!" Hayden cried as she rolls off the couch, her necklace breaking and landing on the floor. The intruder turns from opening the safe where the titanium morpher stayed safe. He pauses and turns to look at the necklace.
"What?" He walks over to it, bending down to pick the necklace up to look at it closely.
"That's mine!" Hayden exclaimed, and suddenly the lights turn on.
The intruder looked at her in surprise. "Hayden?" He breathed, his eyes wide in shock.
"And you're suppose to be?" She asked, her eyes landed on the picture, then back at the intruder. "Ryan?" Her eyes grow wide. "You, you're alive?" Her fighting stance dropping as she stares at him. "And you've been following me this whole time?"
The intruder, now revealed to be the long lost - thought to be dead - brother of Dana and Hayden Mitchell and son to Captain William Mitchell.
Ryan pocketed the locket before running towards the door, shoving Hayden to the side where she fell onto the couch.
"Ryan!" Hayden cried, running after him. Rounding a corner, she looked around franticly before hearing a splash. Running into a lab, Hayden watched as the water had ripples as it moved.

"Isn't it beautiful?" Vypra asked as the Batlings as they looked around the city. "The last sunrise Mariner Bay will ever see." She sent a blue fireball at once of the tallest buildings. It exploded. The alarms inside the Aquabase and the Rangers raced out and towards the city. Laughing, Vypra walks down a set of stairs into an underground warehouse. "Next target." She said as she looked around the room when suddenly the was blasted, knocking the Batlings down and Vypra to look up to see the Rangers putting away their blasters.
"There's not going to be a 'next target', Vypra!" Carter said. "Get out of here!"
"It's only a matter of time before Mariner Bay falls to Diabolico." Vypra told them.
"Oh, I know when that'll be." Joel said with his arms folded. "Never!"
"Yeah! This is our city! And our job is protecting our home!" Hayden added. "And our home planet!"
"Attack!" Vypra orders., and the Batlings ran towards the Rangers.
"High!"
As the others fought the Batlings, Carter fights Vypra, he jabs her in the side, causing her to take a step back and the Rangers regroup. "I'm not gonna tell you again!" Carter said. "Get out of Mariner Bay!"
"Yeah, forever!" Added Kelsey.
"Wild horses couldn't drag me away." Vypra said, glaring. "This is the moment I've been waiting for. The moment you … meet your match."
Suddenly a thunderous cloud appears on the ceiling and Vypra laughs. The Rangers are thrown backwards onto the concrete floor as a bright light surrounded a mysteriously figure who comes out of the cloud. Wearing the Titanium morpher as he's fully morphed.
"It can't be." Carter said as the Rangers get back to their feet. "No one had access to the morpher."
"Who are you?" Dana demanded.
"I'm your worst nightmare." The mysterious new Ranger, answered as he's prepared to fight the Rangers.
As she stood next to Carter, Hayden paled under her helmet, she had a sneaky feeling who the mystery guy is.
The Titanium Ranger advanced on the Rangers, who backs up, Hayden hugging Carter's arm as he had her pushed behind him. Titanium Ranger cornered the Rangers in a corner.
"Stop right there!" Dana said.
"We don't want any trouble with you." Chad added.
"Well you got t!" Titanium Ranger fires on the Rangers with his blaster. Behind him, Vypra laughs happily as the Rangers fought the newest enemy.
The Titanium Ranger knocks Dana down, then slams his leg onto her - pinning her down.
"Dana!" Carter shouted, running at the new enemy. Titanium Ranger looks up and leaps to his feet before fighting Carter, then fist punching Red Ranger in the stomach.
"Carter!" Hayden cried as he went down. Titanium Ranger then fled the building.
"After him!" Carter exclaimed, helping Dana up. The Rangers ran out.
Coming out of the smoke, the Titanium Ranger finds the Rangers standing next to the rail.
"Alright. Rescue Bird!" Carter called. "Stop right there!"
The Titanium Ranger ignored the order as he extended his own weapon.
"I warned you." Carter said as he fires their weapon at the enemy, who deflects the blast. "What?"
Raising his charged up weapon over his head, Titanium Ranger fires back, knocking the Rangers to the ground.
"Why?" Carter asked as he reached out while the man laughs. Dana crawls over to Hayden, and she and Kelsey help up the youngest.
"Carter, break off the attack." Captain Mitchell ordered.
That shocked Red Ranger. "What was that?"
"I aid get out of there … now!"
"Get him!" Joel shouted as he tries to run towards the mysterious Ranger, only for Carter to grab him.
"Joel, wait!" Carter said. "The captain says we have to pull out." He points at Titanium Ranger. "But this isn't over."
"On that much we agree." The mystery man said as the Rangers took off. "It won't be over until you're all destroyed.
XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx
The Rangers are now back in the Aquabase and shocked at what they heard.
"Stolen from the Captain's safe?" Chad asked.
"Then it had to be someone in Lightspeed." Kelsey added.
"But no one would do that." Joel said as the Rangers sat in the briefing room. Carter and Dana are sitting next to each other, while Joel is leaning on a fish tank.
Kelsey walked over to sit next to Hayden at the table. "Who else?" She asked. Joel shrugged and shook his head.
"Alright." Captain Mitchell said as he walked in with Ileana behind him and the door closes. "No matter who it was, the fact remains that Diabolico has the morpher and the Titanium Power. We have got to get it back. Fast."
"That won't be easy." Mis. Fairweather said.
"And dangerous." Ileana added.
XxXxXxXxXxXx
Inside the city, Joel looked around. "Everything quiet."
Dana and Carter run up to each other in front of a fountain. "It's too quiet." Dana agreed, Carter nods in agreement.
"Nothing's happening here either." Hayden said as she and Chad stood on an upper part of the city and looking down the edge.
"Uh, that just changed." Chad said, his eyes on the sky, Hayden looks up to see what his saw as a ball of titanium flew through the city, Chad lifts his morpher. "Let's meet downtown!"
XxXxXxXxXxXxXx
As people ran in panic, the Rescue Rover races on scene, Dana and Carter jump out and the others run up.
"Who are you?" Carter asked.
"It doesn't matter anymore."
Carter and Joel look at each other.
"If you're human." Hayden said, taking a step forward as she stood between Chad and Kelsey. "Then you should be helping us defend our home. You are human, right?"
"Yes, I'm a flesh and blood human, just like you losers."
"Then help us defend our planet!" Hayden continued. "Not destroy it!"
"Yeah." Joel agreed. "We don't want to hurt you."
"Hurt me?" The young man turns to face them. "Your pathetic powers are no match for my Titanium powers."
The Rangers braced themselves for a fight. "Let's go, guys." Carter said.
"LIGHTSPEED, RESCUE!"
Once morphed, the Rangers stood their ground. "Don't make us do something that we don't want to do." Carter warned.
"Give it your best shot." Titanium Ranger challenged.
"Let's do it!" Carter said, the Rangers ran towards the man. Even with six Rangers, they were still out numbered as the Titanium Ranger easily fought them.
"Carter?" Mis. Fairweather called him.
"I read you." Carter said, helping Hayden up and she fell into him.
"Activate V- Lancers."
"You got it." Carter said as Hayden steadied herself and Carter held out his hand. "V Lancers!" He calls and a V shaped weapon appeared in his hand.
"Huh?" Titanium Ranger stared.
"Defense!" The other Rangers shouted as they too got the same weapon.
"Excellent." Chad said.
"This thing rocks." Kelsey grins.
"Yeah, good one Mis. F." Joel said.
"Let's try these bad boys out." Suggested Carter. "Hiyah!"
"Hiyah!"
"Power Rangers, Lightspeed Rescue!"
With their new weapons, the Rangers were able to have a fighting chance and knock the Titanium Laser out of his hands, then surround him. Despise at being out numbered, the Titanium Ranger fought his way out of the circle, before they could strike him. He looks at his own weapon, meters away.
"Don't do it!" Carter said as the mystery man ran for his laser.
"Rangers, go to blaster mode."
"You got it." Carter said. "V-Lancer, blaster mode!" He, along with the mystery man aimed their weapons at each other. "V-Lancers, spectral blast!"
All six Rangers aimed their V-Lancers into the air and fired, creating a blast that landed on the mystery man, throwing him to the ground. "That did it." Carter said.
"Uh!" The Titanium Ranger growled and hit the ground in anger.
"I don't believe it. He's coming back." Carter said in disbelief as the young man gets up and turns to face the Rangers, his visor broken as he glares at the Rangers. "Nothing could have survived that!"
"You are human!" Hayden exclaimed.
"Hayden." Carter puts arm in front of her, then took a step forward. "Stand down before this escalates!" He ordered the Titanium Ranger. "Don't for us to destroy you."
Ryan Mitchell lowers the face plate on his helmet before raising the Titanium laser as the Rangers raised their V-Lancers, he starts to make his way towards them.
"Energy level 10." Mis. Fairweather said.
"Full power." Carter ordered as they aim at Ryan. "Lock on. Target locked!"
"Don't fire!" Captain Mitchell ordered.
"What?" Carter asked, putting his hand on the side of his helmet. "Please, repeat sir."
"Hold your fire."
"But sir, this is our chance to finish him." Kelsey said.
"Don't shoot." Mitchell ordered.
"Alright right, V-Lancer." Carter said, withdrawing fire as Ryan falls to the ground.
"Please." Captain Mitchell pleaded.
"Power down." Carter commanded, the Rangers demorphed. "Let's go."
"We're not finished! Come back here!" Ryan shouted. Carter looked over his shoulder before walking back towards the Rescue Rover.
As they drove away, Hayden turned to look back.
XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx
The Rangers returned to base.
"Retreat? Sir, we had him." Carter said as they entered the briefing room.
"He would have destroyed without thinking twice." Joel added.
"Now he knows that we have the V-Lancers." Chad added.
"That was our chance." Kelsey added. "Maybe our only chance."
"Why sir?" Carter asked. "Why did you stop us?"
Captain Mitchell had his back to the Rangers. "Because." He turns around. "He's my son." He reveals.
Dana held a shocked and hurt look, while Hayden fainted. Kelsey and Joel catching her just before she could hit the floor.
