Chapter Fifteen-Plan

The next day, Tommy was moving around, slowly. His joints were stiff and he still ached. When he was able to stand, he wasn't able to sit, so he leaned against the console.

The others stood in front of Zordon.

"I have summoned a friend to assist us." Zordon told them.

"Greetings, Rangers." Ninjor announced his presence.

Ethan looked around him. Everyone, with the exception of Kira, seemed generally happy to see the strange blue armored ninja.

"Ethan, Kira," Kim introduced. "This is Ninjor. He gave us our Ninja Powers. Ninjor, this is Ethan, the Blue Tricera Ranger, and Kira, the Yellow Ptera Ranger. Their leader, Conner, is the Red Tyranno Ranger. He's in the medical ward."

"Hi," Ethan said nervously. "Nice to meet you."

"The honor is mine." Ninjor said. "There are others?"

"Yes, out mentor and a friend have been taken." Ethan answered sure the ninja meant Dr. Oliver and Trent.

"Truly a sad time as Zordon has informed me, but there is still hope."

The Rangers just stared. That was hard to believe.

"Your powers must be heightened in order to reach your goals." the ninja continued. "you must all carry the power of the ninja. When I say all twelve of you."

"But Ethan just said we're missing two Rangers." Aisha stated.

"Yes, you will have to get them back. Reawakening powers and giving powers shall be easy, but their hearts must be pure."

"They have to be turned back good?" Ethan asked and Ninjor nodded.

Groans filled the chamber. All of this meant waiting for Conner to heal, which they were going to do anyway, devise a rescue mission, containment for Dr. Oliver and Trent until they could be turned good again, have Ninjor awaken the animal spirits inside of Ethan, Conner, Trent, and Kira, reawaken Kim and Dr. Oliver's animal spirits, find a time portal, open it (which they had no idea how to do so with their animal spirits) and send the Dino Thunder Rangers and Kim home.

"I say one of us become a psychologist, psychiatrist, whatever, so that way we won't have to tell our secrets to some stranger." Aisha commented.

"Why?" Adam asked confused.

"'Cause we all are gonna need lots of therapy after this."

Nervous laughter filled the Command Center.

"I have sent Alpha on an errand to help with the purification. Zordon told them after a moment. "Until he returns, I would like for all of you to remain here."

The Rangers nodded their agreement. It was too dangerous to go out, especially for Tommy, they knew this. The bad guys were out for blood and it seemed they were succeeding.

Trent looked over Rita's old balcony. He waited patiently for his teacher. Most of Rita's original design of the palace was his and Dr Oliver.

He marveled at the fact that he was going to have a partner. At first, he hated the thought, the destruction of the Power Rangers was his alone, but his Empress wanted the Black Brachio Ranger on their side. Now that he remembered how well they got along, he couldn't wait to plan the Rangers' defeat.

The sound of at large door opening drew the White Ranger's attention. At first all he saw was darkness, then slowly a male figure appeared.

"Trent." the figure said tightly.

"Dr. Oliver." Trent returned.

"So, we're partners?"

"It's what the Empress wants."

The Black Ranger just nodded as he took a seat on a nearby chair. Trent leaned against the railing of the balcony.

For a long moment, they were silent. Each lost in his own thoughts.

"So, you want to destroy the Red Tyranno Ranger?" Dr Oliver asked.

"Yes, and I almost did too if it wasn't for that bitch, Elsa." Trent said heatedly. "He deserve to die for stepping in where he doesn't belong."

"Kira, right?"

"Yes."

"The hate, the rage, the desire all for a certain Red Ranger. I've been their." The Paleontologist took a deep breath. "Jason, the Red Mighty Morphin Ranger, the first one."

"Gotta hate those Red Rangers."

"Hey, I was one of those Red Rangers."

"Yeah, but you weren't in the way of another's girl, were you?"

Dr. Oliver stood and walked to the balcony, leaning next to Trent.

"No, my girl dumped me soon after I gained the color. Then I dated Kat, the second Pink Ranger. She was only a replacement." he said coldly.

The White Drago Ranger snorted. Even though he and Kira have never dated, he knew he wouldn't want a replacement. He would have to find someone new, someone completely different.

"All of my life, I've been trying to find another Kimberly and I haven't found one."

Trent remained silent for a minute. He had to think.

"So, you want her back?" he said after a moment.

"Hell, yeah."

The teenager chuckled and pushed of the rail. He walked so he was now facing his teacher.

"Then, I say, go get her." he paused and stared the man in the eye. "He was dead serious on this plan. "We take our girls and destroy whoever try to stop us."

The Science teacher thought about the idea for a second. A wicked smile crossed his face.

"Next, battle." he began. "During the next battle, alienate Kira. Get her as far away from the others as possible. Stay to her side or behind her. Never approach her from the front. Don't want you getting hit by her Ptera Scream. Once you have her alone, fight her until she has exhausts all her energy, then grab her and bring her back here."

"And you will be doing…?"

"I have a date with the first Pterodactyl Ranger." He answered. "I still have my White Tiger Power Coin. It was never destroyed. With it I will be able to enter the Command Center."

"Wait," Trent interrupted. "We already have access to the Command Center. Why would you need your old power coin?"

"I'm sure Zordon has blocked our Ranger energies from the computer by now. If either of us were to teleport into the Command Center, the alarm would go off. That's why, my old Power Coin is needed." he paused to make sure his student got it. "This was an extra precaution made after I was turned good the first time. Zordon didn't want anymore evil Rangers gaining access to the Ranger's head quarters."

He stood fully and crossed his arms over his chest.

"Once inside, I will be able to take Kim. She's not as powerful as she used to be. It won't be hard."

Trent smirked evilly as he rolled the idea around in his head.

"I like it." he said. "We get to break the Rangers and take our girls."

Evil laughter filled the room.

The board was now set.

Seven chapters to go. This is the longest story I've ever written.

Thanks for all of the reviews.
