Trini

Trini had walked straight home to calm down a bit, her parents gone for the whole week so she could be alone in their house, which was just what she needed now, and as no one was home, no one would notice that she had walked home to early. But she never reached home.

In a corner she saw someone she knew. When she decided to take a closer look she noticed that it was Billy's dad, and he had put a note up on a notice-board. Filled with curiosity and bad suspicions she walked over to it to read the note.

She just stared at it in shock. According to the note Billy had been lost for two days, in other words, since Saturday. Could Billy have been one of Rita's soldiers for two days?

Trini felt sick now, but she ran back to school anyway, she had to tell the others about this. She arrived just in time to see Blue Ranger assault Zack, and disappear.

"ZACK!!" Trini ran over to him, it was blood everywhere and he was in coma. Trini picked up his power coin and hid it in her pocket so that no one would find it and try to figure out what it did. Then she called the ambulance.

While she was talking in the phone she looked down in Zack's lifeless face. This was unbelievable, what on Earth could have made Billy do anything like that? Had Rita promised him something that had made him betray the others, and what could that be?

Jason and Tommy left the classroom fifteen minutes before the others to go to their advanced-karate-class.

Kimberly sighed in jealousy and she actually seriously started to consider to join the advanced-karate-class herself, but of course… it would take her several years to get good enough for this. Zack and Trini would maybe be accepted… maybe.

She looked out through the window, and something got her attention. An ambulance was standing in front of the school garden close to the trees. A girl with long black hair, a yellow shirt and short green trousers was there. Trini? The ambulance stuff lifted the injured person into the ambulance. Kimberly wasn't sure if it was a boy or a girl, but she saw that it was a black person… Zack? Could it be Zack?

She instantly turned to Billy's desk, it was empty. Then she turned to Jason, his desk was empty too.

Now Kimberly felt a very unpleasant thought take shape in her head. If Zack was injured… and Billy had anything to do with it… then maybe they could have saved Zack if they had decided to contact Zordon before they inquired Billy. Suddenly Kimberly got angry inside. Who had come up with that stupid idea?

Some hours after that, Billy had finally given up. After several unsuccessful attempts, Rita had finally tired him out so extremely that he wasn't able to fight back anymore. He had been mentally assaulted for two and a half day, but the latest part was more than he could take. He had tried to kill Zack…

After that he had been forced to attack Zordon and Alpha, and turned both of them off. That was the first time that he hadn't tried to stop himself. He had still been in Rita's control when he returned. And then, most to see if he was really defeated, she had also forced him to do some less important missions. And Rita was satisfied.

"HA I told you I would succeed!" Now Goldar began to fawn on her again.

"I have never doubt on that"

"QUIET! Okay Blue Ranger, do you have any suggestions?"

"Actually I do, I have some equipment that I need in my lab, I'll get it and then I'll take Yellow if you want, my queen." He finished his words with a sneer.

"I have been waiting for you to finish your friends far too long Blue Ranger, you may begin when you want!"

"Yellow will end up like Black before sunset, I promise" and then he leaned against the wall for a while before getting to work.

Billy was teleported to his lab, he got all he needed and was about to teleport to Trini's street when he happened to hear something inside the house. His curiosity won and he went to find what it was. He carefully opened the door to the living room, his dad was lying on the sofa, sobbing, and then he caught sight of the heaps of notes that reported him missing. That meant he had to be extremely careful. He teleported himself, not to Trini's street, he teleported himself into her house …

Trini's parents were still gone, and Trini herself had been on the market buying some carrots, a bit of cheese and milk.

When she came home after that, she unlocked the door and stepped inside. She locked the door again and went to the kitchen with the milk and everything else. Suddenly she had a hand over her mouth and someone had stolen her power coin. Then she heard Billy's voice.
