On the Astro Megaship's deck, Ashley's fingers moved swiftly over the controls of the computer.
"Come on, Jason. Who took you and where are you?" she asked softly.
"Ashley? Is something wrong?" TJ questioned. Ashley jumped and looked at him.
"No, TJ. Nothing's wrong," she told him.
"Who are you looking for?" he wondered.
"No one," she responded.
"Baloney. You've been looking for someone yourself as long as Andros has. And I know it's not Zordon. So, who's missing?" he pressed. The girl sighed.
"I'm looking for my cousin. He disappeared shortly after the Power Chamber was destroyed," she told him.
"Maybe he decided to take a vacation of some sort."
"No. The house was a total wreck. There was obviously a fight. Somebody or something took him."
"How can you be so sure?" Ashley reached into the pocket of her uniform and pulled out a golden watch.
"Because this was all that I found. And Jason would never leave his communicator behind."
"Communicator? This guy's one of us?"
"He used to be." TJ put a hand on Ashley's shoulder.
"We'll find him, Ash. I promise." Meanwhile, on a hot and dusty planet, two fighters were going hand-to-hand in an arena. One was a large black monster that had yellow lines crisscrossing up and down his body. The other was a human who was somewhere in his twenties. The monster grabbed the human's hands and held them so that he couldn't throw a punch. He let out a karate yell and felled his opponent with a sweep of his leg.
"Don't count me out yet, you freak!" he shouted. The monster growled, conjured up a sword, and jumped back up. The creature in charge of the fight allowed a terrible grin cover its features. The human was a formidable fighter. One of the creature's generals walked up to him.
"Lord Magnus, why do you let the human live?" he wondered.
"Because he amuses me," Lord Magnus responded. "When he fails to do so, then I will destroy him." The man blocked the creature's incoming attack and took its weapon. Then, he jabbed the sword through the creature's heart. With an agonized cry, the monster fell to the ground and disintegrated.
"Fight's over. Take the prisoner back to his cage," Lord Magnus instructed. Immediately, two of Magnus' generals teleported on either side of the human and grabbed his arms. Then, they disappeared from the arena and reappeared in front of a large cave, which they threw the human in. He grunted, and then tried to rush out, only to be stopped by the appearance of large yellow energy beams. The creatures laughed.
"You forget: there is no escape…Jason." As they left, Jason Lee Scott grunted angrily and slapped the wall.
"Man, I wish I had my communicator!"
