When the rangers arrived in the Power Camber Alpha quickly trotted towards Billy. He began to stutter as he spoke in a rushed voice; Billy quickly calmed him down and made it so Alpha was finally speaking like he would normally speak.

" Alpha what's wrong?" Billy asked in his usual calm voice. " It's Lord Zedd, he's made contact and has just spoken with Zordon, Ai, yi yi, and we're in trouble if we can't get Jason here soon." Alpha said with worry.

The others all looked at each other with apprehensive and concerned looks, if they thought that things were already bad, they were soon going to find out that things have gotten much worse.

" What going on, what does he want now?" Rocky asked agitated.

" It seems were running out of time. Lord Zedd has threatened to destroy Adam if we did not deliver Jason soon or at least the Gold Ranger Powers. He said that if we give him the Gold Rangers Powers than at least he might consider in leaving Adam unharmed but he still wants Jason, I don't know why but he has his eyes fixed on Jason. I have a bad feeling about this, Ai, yi yi…" Alpha said as he began to panic again.

" Easy Alpha, calm down." Billy said as he tried to calm him down again. He then looked up at Zordon who has grown unusually quiet as he listened to the rangers talk with Alpha.

" Zordon, there has to be something we can do." Billy pleaded.

" I KNOW THAT THINGS SEEM TO BE DIFFICULT AND HOPELESS RANGERS BUT I NEVER ONCE IMAGINED KING MONDO TO WANT TO TEAM UP WITH LORD ZEDD IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM. THIS IS NO ORDINARY BATTLE THAT YOU ARE FACED WITH, LORD ZEDD'S RETURN IS ONLY PROVING TO BE MORE THAN WE CAN HANDLE. AND HIS INTEREST IN JASON AND THE GOLD RANGER POWERS IS STILL UNCLEAR BUT THERE IS NO WAY THAT WE CAN OFFORD TO GIVE HIM JASONS POWERS, IT COULD VERY WELL KILL JASON IF WE DO BUT THE LONGER WE WAIT, ADAM'S LIFE WILL HANG IN THE BALANCE. AND UNTIL WE FIND WHERE LORD ZEDD IS KEEPING HIM, WE CAN DO NOTHING MORE BUT WAIT. BECAUSE IF WE SHOULD MAKE ANY FALSE PREDICTIONS OR MOVES, LORD ZEDD WILL NOT HESITATE TO KILL ADAM." Zordon explained to them all.

" This is proving to be hopeless. We can't just give up on Adam. Zordon if there is anything I can do you name it and I'll do it. Anything…" Rocky said with willingness.

" I'm going to try and scan for Adam again, see if I can locate him in the morphine grid." Billy said determined.

" We need Jason." Tommy suddenly said speaking up. " But he wont talk or see anyone." Kimberly reminded him.

" I know. But things have gotten worse. And he needs to know why I decided to choose him over Adam." Tommy said with remorse.

" Do you want any of us to come with you?" Aisha asked. Tommy shook his head no as he looked up at the others. " I have to do this on my own." Tommy said.

" Good luck Tommy. You're going to need it." Rocky said. Tommy gave him a small smile. " As soon as you hear from Kat, Tanya and Zack, contact me." Tommy ordered him. Rocky nodded his head in understanding.

After Tommy had teleported out Rocky let out a frustrated sigh. " I hope Zack and the others have had better luck than us." Rocky said.

" They wont find him, he's not in Angle Grove anymore." Billy explained to Rocky.

" Then why did you not mention this before? What's the point of them scanning the area for Adam if he's not even in Angle Grove?" Rocky said annoyed.

" For your information I did mention that but everyone was too caught up with Adam's sudden loss that I decided that perhaps it might do them good to believe that they might find him. To keep them busy, it will help them from going crazy with worry." Billy tried to explain.

" Yeah, well, that was a wrong decision on your part Billy. Since when did you become so careless?" Rocky asked a little sacastically.

" The same time you became senseless." Billy shot back.

" Hey guys stop it. Why are you two fighting? We have bigger problems to deal with here." Aisha said as she tried to calm Rocky down.

" The worry and waiting is getting to me, sorry Billy." Rocky quickly apologized. " I'm sorry too." Billy said.

" I really hope Tommy talks some sense into Jason, poor guy is guilt ridden again, Jason's the worst when he feels guilty about his failure with a friend, especially since he knows Adam's life hangs in the balance because of him. Kim, Aisha, you two have no idea how glade I am to know that you came all the way out here…" Rocky said sadly.

" Adam's my friend remember Rocky? There's no way I would not be here." Aisha told him. " That goes the same with me." Kimberly said with a smile.

" We'll find Adam right? We'll win like we always do…" Rocky asked with false hope. " Don't give up just yet Rocky, Adam's strong. He'll make it." Aisha said as she embraced Rocky with a much needed hug.

" Oh Tommy, please hurry." Kimberly said quietly under her breath as she watched Rocky and Aisha embrace with a long hug…
