Belongs to Haim Saban and Fox Kids. I only own some of the plot.
When the machine was done, Elsa and the Crangon walked out.
"What? It didn't work?" Mesogog asked angrily. Almost as soon as the words were out of his mouth, another being came out. It had a rock body like the Crangons, but was wearing leather like Elsa commonly did.
"Yo, Dude! I'm the Grunginator!" it said, sounding like a mindless teen. Mesogog practically threw Elsa's device into his hands.
"Take this and go to Reefside. Its beam will turn anyone it touches into an ill-mannered teenager," Mesogog instructed.
"As you wish, Dude," the Grunginator agreed with a bow. Then, it used an invisaportal to disappear. Conner closed his eyes and held Krista close. She screamed, causing Conner to open his eyes. The teens jumped to their feet.
"Krista, get back!" he shouted, pushing her behind him.
"Whoa, Dude. Chill," the monster said.
"What is that thing?" Krista questioned in fright.
"I don't know. Just stay behind me," Conner answered.
"Okay," she agreed.
"Like I said, chill, Dude. I'm just here to help," the thing said.
"You wanna help? Go away," Conner spat out.
"Hey, you're nasty!" the thing cried. "Let me help you stay that way," he continued. Then, it pointed a type of ray gun at the teen and pressed the trigger.
"Krista, run!" Conner yelled, as a strange beam started for them.
"But---" she began.
"GO!" Conner insisted. Krista ran off and Conner groaned as the ray enveloped him. Wha---what's happening? the Ranger wondered. He---he just had to fight it. Then, without warning, the beam---and the monster---disappeared. Then, Conner's eyes flashed a deep shade of red.
