Your Turn 6

Poor Emily barley ate breakfast.

"Okay, you know you had to sleep," Wesley said, "sorry we had to do that."

"I guess that's okay," Emily sighed, "but the dream I had was of Decker. He's going to battle me in an hour in a half."

"Geez," Jayden said, "you need to do a little last minutes training."

As the two trained her for a little while, Emily looked at Jayden. Was Decker bluffing? Or did Jayden really like her? She was about to ask when the GAP sensor went off. Summoning all her courage, she rushed outside with the others.

"You'll be fine," Mike assured her as they ran.

"Yeah, you'll do great," Wesley said.

"Well all have fate in you," Mia added.

Jayden watched her as she ran. If she was so much knocked over, he was going to save her. Decker was not going to hurt this kid. He was going to make sure of it.

Sure enough, Decker was waiting for them when they arrived. With a snap of his fingers, the other rangers were tied up, unable to get free.

"Ah, Emily," he said, "I trust you are ready to battle."

As a response, she drew her sword.

"Very well," he nodded.

His was quick with his long, fast sword, but Emily found te strength to stay on her feet. She got in close and jumped and dodged.

"She's good," Wesley commented to the others, "always have. Always will."

"Yeah," Jayden agreed with the others, keeping his eyes trained on Emily.

Suddenly, Urmasa struck her. She screamed and crumpled to the ground, cluthching her side. He put the point to her chest as Jayden screamed. He broke his powerful bonds and rushed to her head.

Quick as a wink, the two were slashing at each other and fighting like crazy. But it wasn't time, and Jayden was easily battered and hurt.

"NO!" Emily screamed as Decker kicked him into a building.

Getting to her feet, there was a fierce light in her eyes as she swung at Decker, knocking off his feet.

"You won't hurt him!" she said, "you stay away from him now and..and any of the others...and if you won't do it yourself, I destroy you if you even dare!"

"You're fierce, Yellow Ranger," he said, "but it's a pity I was destroy it."

"We'll see about that," Emily snarled.

Emily fought with amazing power and speed. Decker was worn down with each powerful strike and blow, but no matter what he did to her, Emily didn't give up or seem to get tired.

"She's amazing," Kevin said.

"Emily's the one usually falling down," Mike said.

"But it's different when she's got that sword in her hands," Wesley agreed.

"Come on," Mia said, "we have to get Jayden."

The team crawled over to their leader, since they couldn't break their bonds. Moaning, he sat up.

"Where...where's Em?" he asked weakly.

"Fighting Decker," Mike said.

"And rocking it," Wesley added.

The other five watched in awe as Emily knocked her rival into a building, beat up and tired.

"You prove a more powerful opponent than I thought," Decker said, "so I must unleash the true power of Urmasa."

When he made a quick unseeable red symbol and slashed at Emily, a bright light cut her. She screamed as smoke covered the pain she was enduring. When it died down, Emily was nowhere to be seen in all the rubble.

"Emily!" all five screamed in horror.

The other four transformed and started to battle Decker. But they weren't any match for Decker at normal state. They were soon in normal form and moaning in a crater. Jayden gasped as his friends lay there, helpless. Where was Emily?

But there was no time. Jayden was going to battle Decker.

Even if it killed him.
