After Rocky had passed out, the other rangers all managed to destroy the cogs. Tommy had Rocky teleported back to the power chamber so they would not have to worry about him while they fought, Adam and Aisha were inside trying to rescue the two remaining parents which they eventually managed to keep safe.

Once the battle was over Adam did his best to try and calm down his mother who was in a state of shock. He had to demorph just so she would calm down. As for Mrs. Scott, who was in tears over the kidnapping of her husband, was calmed down by Tommy, who explained to her that they needed to head to some place safe, that safe place being...was the power chamber.

Tommy knew now that it will not be safe to have the remaining parents stay unprotected. Whosever parents were not included in the fray was soon to be contacted and brought to the power chamber. Tommy made up his mind and regardless of what anyone would say or do, he was going to be certain that the remaining parents were to be protected. No one really argued with him.

When they arrived at the power chamber Adam's mother was all over her son. She still could not believe she saw what she had seen and when she arrived in the power chamber she nearly fainted. Adam had to keep her steady and on her feet.

"Really mom, I'm fine." Adam insisted as his mother inspected his injured leg. "Really? Because you don't look fine." Replied Mrs. Park. She gave her son a very worried look.

"I cannot believe you never told me, after all of this time. How long were you a power ranger?" She asked, her tone of voice made no room for nothing but the truth. Adam sighed. He could never lie to his mother. He was always bad at it.

"Since we moved here." Adam muttered. "And why have you not told me?" She demanded. Adam shrugged his shoulders, as he then glanced at his friends for help. Seeing Adam's distress, Mrs. Scott decided to answer for him.

"They had to keep it a secret, otherwise they would have lost their powers. It was for their own protection; you saw what happened to us today and it was because we knew." Mrs. Scott said sadly.

"I'm really sorry mom. I would have told you if I could have, honest." Adam said. Mrs. Park could not help but sigh. Even though a part of her was mad, another part of her had different feelings about all of this. Eventually she managed to let out a small smile.

"I guess I understand why you had to keep it a secret." Mrs. Park said as she went over to hug her son. She was just glad he was safe.

After Mrs. Park and Mrs. Scott got adjusted into their new surrounding they finally were able to take a little tour of the power chamber. Adam decided to show them where they would be spending their time and while he did that, Tommy went to go check on Rocky.

Billy was looking him over. He had returned from wherever he had gone with Zordon and now he was busy keeping an eye on Rocky. Seeing Billy work away, Tommy decided to check up on things.

"So, how's he doing?" Tommy asked as he inspected Rocky. "Well, he'll be okay. He did not suffer any serious injury, he just blacked out because his body must have been over worked. Exhaustion in other words made him pass out like he did. However, he did suffer some minor bruises and so forth, but they should heal fine." Billy explained.

"That's good. We could use some good news." Tommy said as he finished examining Rocky, who happened to be asleep.

"Can you do me a favour Billy?" Tommy asked. "Yeah sure, what is it?" Billy asked as he looked up from his report.

"When he wakes up can you let his mother see him? She's worried sick about him." Tommy said. Billy let out a small smile, as he nodded in understanding. "Sure." He said.

"Thanks." Tommy replied, and with one last look he headed off back to where the others were.


Meanwhile back on the moon, Mondo inspected the lot of parents his cogs managed to capture. He was disappointed when he found they lost three of them. He was even angrier when he found out that the blue ranger had escaped with his friends.

Heading down to where the parents were, he saw them all crowded in a large cage. None of them looked to happy about all of this and when Mr. Scott saw Mondo he could not help but gawk at the large robotic alien.

As Mondo finally came to a stop at the front of the cell, he quickly examined them and with a powerful voice he asked, "Which one of you is the gold rangers parents?" Demanded Mondo. Everyone was silent.

"I know at least one of you are here, so show yourself!" Mondo snapped. Taking a somewhat nervous gulp, Mr. Scott managed to push his way through the group of parents and present himself to the Machine King.

"I'm his father." Mr. Scott said in as strong of a voice as he could muster. "So, you are his father…yes…I do see the resemblance." Mondo said as he silently examined Mr. Scott from head to toe. Mr. Scott started to grow uncomfortable.

"What do you want with us and where is my son?" Mr. Scott demanded. Mondo gave him a disgusted look. "Your son is not here, and as for what I want…well you will just have to wait and see." Mondo said and with one last look he turned around and left, before Mr. Scott could ask another question.

The other parents let out a sigh of relief after Mondo had left them, but Mr. Scott was too worried to care about that. He was worried about his son, if his son was not here…then where was he?

As Mondo tried to figure out what to do next, Lord Zedd and Rita meanwhile were on their way to Serpentera, Jason was with them and he was being forced to follow them as Zedd dragged him along by chains.

"Hurry it up! We have to get going before Mondo discovers where we are taking you." Lord Zedd said as he yanked Jason even harder by the chains. Jason gave him a dirty look, as he purposefully was dragging his feet. Which was making Lord Zedd angry.

"Move it!" Lord Zedd snapped. "Where are you taking me?" Jason demanded. "None of your business, boy." Lord Zedd said angrily as he tugged at Jason's chains again. Jason tugged back. Lord Zedd started to get annoyed.

Just then Goldar placed his hand on Jason's shoulder, nearly startling him. He quickly spun Jason around as Lord Zedd then tossed him the chains. "Goldar make sure he does not escape." Lord Zedd ordered.

"I told you before that I can handle this, but you insisted on dragging him this far on your own." Goldar complained. Lord Zedd ignored his complaint.

"Just don't lose him." Lord Zedd said as he stopped then to talk to Rita. "Now tell me again what your plan is, dear?" Lord Zedd said in a somewhat sarcastic voice.

"We contact my father and he will be more than happy to keep Jason." Rita explained. Lord Zedd scoffed at that idea.

"I don't like involving him in my affairs." Lord Zedd complained. "Well we don't have a choice now do we? We have to take him somewhere where Mondo will not dare go nor will his friends be able to find." Rita explained.

"I still don't like this." Lord Zedd said with disappointment. "Now stop your complaining because I'm about to contact my father." Rita warned him. Now keeping quiet, Lord Zedd waited for Master Vile to show himself.

Once he appeared before them Master Vile was only too quick to complain once again about how Rita ended up with Lord Zedd, but as for Jason, he stood watching Rita's father with pure horror. So this was Rita's father…

"Well, what is it this time? I already offered you a place to stay, now what do you want from me?" Complained Master Vile.

"Daddy, we have a present! We captured the gold ranger, but Mondo is demanding we hand him over to him. We need to keep Jason somewhere where his friends and Mondo can't reach him." Rita explained.

Hearing his daughter explain her situation, Master Vile could not help but look at the somewhat frightened young ranger. Master Vile smiled evilly.

"So, this is the human that Trey has passed his powers onto? How disappointing…and this is the same human that neither you nor Zedd could destroy? I am surprised… that he managed to outwit both of you so many times." Master Vile said disapprovingly as he examined Jason.

Jason though tried to hide his fear as he gave Master Vile a stern, stubborn look. Master Vile smirked at that. "I can sense your fear. You know what will happen if you are taken to me? Your days of freedom will be over, for your friends will never be able to find you." Master Vile taunted.

"I'm not afraid!" Jason shot back. "My friends will rescue me." Jason with confidence. Master Vile only smiled at Jason's stubbornness. "If only you were evil, then what a prize you would be." Master vile said.

"Very well, hurry and bring him here. I might have a few plans of my own..." Master Vile said. " And Rita…be sure he gets here." Master Vile warned.

"Of course father, we will get him to you." Rita promised. "Good, then waste no more time and get going, I am done here." Master Vile said, as he then disappeared.

Once he was gone Jason looked down. He was now starting get the worst feeling in the pit of his stomach, but he tried to ignore it, he could not afford to show too many signs of weakness, he just hoped against hope that his friends would stop Lord Zedd and Rita before it was too late.
