Chapter Eleven
Meanwhile, before he was located by Alpha, Tommy was still hiding from Robogoat. His powers were fading in and out and it was draining his own life force. He was getting weaker and weaker and he knew that it was only a matter of time before the monster found him and destroyed him.
The Green Ranger wasn't ready to die. There was so much more he wanted to do in his life. He wanted to become a third degree then forth degree black belt. He wanted to go on another date with Kimberly. He wanted to grow up.
This wasn't fair. Everything was ending before his life could really began. He was too young for this.
He could feel tears well up to his eyes. What would his friends tell his parents? Would they tell them the truth? Would they tell them that their only child was secretly a Power Ranger and had died because his powers had been stolen from him several months before and regained his powers only at a weaker state that caused his death?
He breathed in heavily. It was all too much. He was going to die at 16. He gasped. He had just turned 16. He's family and friends were there. He and Kimberly were able to be alone for an hour and were able to make out. It was the happiest day of his life. Now there will never be happier days.
Just when the Green Ranger had come to his morbid conclusion, the other Rangers were teleported to his location. The immediately confronted Robogoat.
"Welcome Rangers," the monster greeted.
"Robogoat, he's got the sword," Jason stated the obvious. "Ready."
His team took on fighting stances.
"Yes," the goat baaed. "Ready for your destruction. You Rangers are finished. Let the games begin."
The monster started his attack and blasted the Rangers with a lightning attack. The Rangers fell to the ground stunned and struggled to stand.
Jason gave them orders and they followed them as quickly as their bodies would allow. Robogoat did not like this idea and suggested that they battled one on one and the Red Ranger decided the monster wasn't as dumb as it looked. It probably knew it didn't stand a chance with all of the Rangers attacking him at once.
Robogoat got rid of the other Rangers, leaving no one but himself, the Red Ranger, and the still hidden Green Ranger on the battlefield.
Jason and Robogoat charged at each other with their swords drawn. They clash both fighting on equal footing despite Robogoat being able to know Jason down. With haste, the Red Ranger was able to recover and hold his ground with the monster. It wasn't long before the leader of the Power Rangers was able to disarm Robogoat. The sword turning to a wooden staff at the monster's feet.
"Impossible," he cried out indignantly. "Where is the sword?"
"Zordon teleported it back to the Command Center where it belongs," Jason revealed. "Now I'm going to teach you not to mess with the Power Rangers. I want my friends back."
They attack one another again. Robogoat using his rod. They fought for a few minutes before Jason was able to release his friends and just when he told them about Lord Zedd made his monster to grow.
"Mastodon Lion Thunderzord Power," Zack cried out.
"Pterodactyl Firebird Thunderzord Power," Kimberly shouted.
"Triceratops Unicorn Thunderzord Power," Billy yelled out.
"Saber-Tooth Tiger Griffin Thunderzord Power," Trini exclaimed.
"Tyrannosaurus Red Dragon Thunderzord Power," Jason called his zord.
They formed the Thunder Megazord.
While the Rangers were fighting Robogoat, from his hiding spot, Tommy's communicator goes off.
"I'm still here," he answered. "I read you, Zordon."
He looks up to the battle.
"Oh no," he said. "My dream is coming true after all."
He knew that was a stretch, but his friends were fighting without him and could lose if he wasn't able to help.
"I mustn't give up," he said finding the much needed courage he lost just moments ago. He pulled out his Dragon Dagger.
"Come on, buddy," he said to his zord. "Once more, for old times."
Tommy played the flute of his dagger, but it didn't work.
"It's not working, on no."
He looked back up at the battle before him.
"Zordon, they're counting on me. Come on put me back into the fight," the Green Ranger pleaded. "Man, can't believe this is happening."
And just when it seemed that he lost all his hope again, the other Power Rangers defeated Robogoat. The good guys had won. They didn't need the Dragonzord at all. Tommy's dream did not come to pass.
