"How the hell did you get here!" Kamia all but demanded, staring at the Purple Ranger.
"That's for me to know and you to find out," Purple Ranger shot out with a laugh. "What's more important is that I'm here to make sure you don't mess time up and it's a good thing I arrived when I did." Purple Ranger jumped over Kamia and landed next to the trapped teens on the floor. She had seen the whole thing when Kamia arrived at the Command Center and didn't understand why these humans stood up to Kamia when they had no powers. She knew they were not Power Rangers and yet there they were, fighting against Kamia as a team to protect Zordon. Sure they got beat but at lest they gave it their all. She brought her scythe above her head and brought it down on the ooze and cracked it enough that the kids could get free while she turned around to face Kamia.
"Hey, thanks," Rocky said, helping Aisha up. "Who are you?"
"Right now, there's more important things at hand. I want you three to get that ooze off the panels. As long as the ooze is getting into the wiring, Zordon won't have much time."
"I love being the bearer of bad news," Kamia said, standing beside the viewing globe, "but it seems you might be to late."
Purple Ranger watched the viewing globe and saw the fight between the Power Rangers and the Ooze Men. The Rangers had the upper hand but with Kamia's ooze destroying the control panels she was making them lose power, their suits were flickering on and off. She turned around to face the three teens and hurried them. "Get that ooze off there!"
Adam, Aisha, and Rocky nodded as the Purple Ranger attacked Kamia while they tried to save Zordon and the Power Rangers. They reached the panel that Kamia covered first, apparently the one that held information to keep the Command Center running and Zordon alive, and was able to get most of the ooze off the front of the panel but they had to get to the wires inside the control panels. Rocky lifted one section of the panel and looked down to see ooze covering nearly all the wires. Aisha and Adam tried to wipe it off but it only made it worst. They could also see electricity flow through the ooze.
"We can't get it off. We're only making it worst," Aisha exclaimed, turning around in time to see the Purple Ranger be thrown down the small steps by the viewing globe.
"Then wash it off!" Purple Ranger yelled back, getting up to swing her scythe at Kamia, cutting her a little on the face. "There has to be some water around here to wash that ooze off."
"Are you crazy?" Rocky asked. "We can't put water on wires. We'll get electrocuted!"
"No you won't. Kamia's ooze acts as a protective guard as well, so that everything it covers will not be harmed. If you pour water on it, it will wash the ooze off and the wires under it will not be touched."
Adam didn't know if he should believe that or not but right now was not the time to dwell on it. He looked around and spotted his friends backpacks right behind the fight between Kamia and the Purple Ranger. He knew that Jason and Tommy kept water bottles on hand but the problem now was getting to them before Kamia figured out what they were doing.
Back at the fight, things were not looking good. The Rangers had no idea why their suits were flickering and the Ooze Men were taking advantage of that. They were able to get the Rangers cornered by a tree and circled that tree so they had no way out.
"What the hell is going on?" Zack asked, falling to one knee as he watched his glove disappear and then reappear again. "I feel like my powers are being drained."
"We're losing power," Billy said, looking at his own hands.
"Why are we losing power?" Jason asked, jump kicking an Ooze Man that came near him. "Talk to me Billy."
"I don't know. Our powers are connected to the power source in the Command Center."
"Meaning what?" Kim asked, ducking as the Ooze Men now started to attack again.
"It means there's something wrong at the Command Center and we need to get there fast," Trini said, touching her he belt to teleport but all she felt was a small lift and then nothing. She was still at the park with the Ooze Men. "We can't teleport!"
"Then what do we do?" Tommy asked. He never got an answer because no had an answer to give him.
"What's wrong Purple Ranger?" Kamia asked with a laugh. She walked around the Purple Ranger, holding her right arm out. Ooze covered from her elbow to her hand and it formed into a sharp point at the tip just inches above her fingers. "If you came to keep me from destroying this place, then you did a shity job. I think you did more damage than me and that's just not right." Almost everything that was standing in the Command Center was now destroyed and sparks from machines and panels were flying everywhere.
"Why are you really here, Kamia?" She followed one of the boys line of sight and saw backpacks behind Kamia. She had to at lest keep the girl talking so she wouldn't notice the boy sneaking behind her.
"What is it with you people? What do you think an evil mastermind from the past is doing here in the present? Vacation? Wrong. I'm only going to say this once so listen and listen good. I'm here to destroy Zordon and his Power Rangers so when I got back to the past, there will be no Zordon or Power Rangers. Eltar will then be ours for the taking. Any questions?" She thrust her arm forward, aimed at the Purple Rangers heart, but missed when the Purple Ranger rolled away and kicked her feet out from under her.
"Now!" she cried. She saw the boy race to get two backpacks and brought them back to his friends. Kamia saw him and was about to stop him but she was faster. Grabbing her scythe from where it landed moments before, she swung it in between Kamia's legs, making the girl fall forward. She watched as the boy and girl reached in and pulled out water bottles that were full to the top. That wasn't enough but if they were able to just pour it all over the wires, it should help. "Just dump it over the wires."
Aisha nodded and uncapped Tommy's water bottle and turned it upside down, pouring it all over the wires. She prayed this was going to help or else they just doomed their friends. With Adam's help, most of the ooze was coming off and forming a pool of purple water under the control panel. She heard Rocky laugh happily and looked up to laugh as well. Zordon was no long fading and was staying whole. The lights in the Command Center stopped flickering as well. "It worked!"
Kamia looked up when Aisha spoke those words and swore under her breath as she stood up. It seemed this was going to be harder than she thought. She turned back to the Purple Ranger, shooting daggers from her eyes. "You may have saved the day this time but remember this. You couldn't beat me back then and you sure as hell won't beat me now." With that, she ran towards the wall and disappeared right through it, leaving a trail of ooze in her wake.
"She just pulled a Slimmer," Rocky said, looking at the ooze dripping from the wall. Something caught his attention and he turned his head to see Alpha walking around in circles in a corner. He grabbed the bottle from Adam and walked over to Alpha, dumping the last bit of water. He smiled when Alpha stopped and looked around.
"Ayeyaiyaiyai. Boy am I glad that's over."
"You okay Alpha?"
"Yes. Thank you Rocky." Alpha walked over to the control panels and looked at the ooze that still covered them and the Command Center half destroyed. "Oh boy. This will take weeks to clean up."
"We're sorry Alpha," Aisha said, feel guilty that they couldn't help like they wanted to.
"Do not be sorry," the Purple Ranger said, walking up to the kids with her scythe in hand. "You three did a good job protecting Zordon and you also saved your friends."
"So who are you?" Adam asked, feeling a little better.
"I BELIEVE WE SHOULD CALL THE RANGERS HERE SO THEY MAY HEAR THIS."
"Good idea," Alpha said. "I hope I can teleport them." Alpha hit a few buttons and within a matter of minutes, the Rangers appeared. "Oh Rangers. You're okay."
"Yeah. Barely," Tommy said, taking his helmet off. He looked at the Purple Ranger and then up at Zordon. "Um, Zordon. Who's this?"
"Other than someone that saved our ass," Rocky said with a smirk.
The Purple Ranger reached up and removed their helmet. There, standing before them, was a young woman about their age, maybe older, with long brown hair. She bowed a little and played with her scythe as they stared at her.
"RANGERS. MAY I INTRODUCE THE FIRST PURPLE RANGER FROM ELTAR."
"Greetings, Power Rangers of the present. My name is Victoria."
"I'm Jason and this is Adam, Aisha, Billy, Kim, Rocky, Trini, Tommy, and Zack."
"VICTORIA. WHAT HAS HAPPENED THAT MADE KAMIA OOZE APPEAR IN OUR PRESENT TIME?"
"Oh boy. Where do I begin? Um...Just as the Ninja Rangers were about to finish Ivan and Kamia off, one of Ivan's servants found a Time Portal not to far from the battle. Ivan was about to go but he changed his mind and pulled Kamia out of the battle and sent her instead. I happened to see the whole thing and I didn't know what they were up too but I knew it was not good. So I followed Kamia but I was sent somewhere else while Kamia was sent here. It took me a hundred years to find her."
"A hundred years?" Kim asked. "How is that possible?"
"You have to think. Four thousand years ago and they find a Time Portal in a galaxy far from here. I'm not sure when Earth was here but time traveling can take longer than people know. Sure it sounds faster but you never really know how long it takes until you arrive."
"How did you get into the Command Center?" Jason asked.
"ONLY THOSE WITH A POWER COIN CAN ENTER THE COMMAND CENTER. VICTORIA DOES HAVE A POWER COIN BUT OUR SCANNERS DIDN'T KNOW WHO SHE WAS SINCE SHE'S FROM THE PAST."
"That's why the security alarms went off," Aisha said, understanding.
"I assume so," Victoria said. "Now, can I ask a question. How do you three know about the Power Rangers? The Power Rangers identities are to be a secret. No one must know who they are."
"Well, they didn't know who we were but Lord Zedd turned them evil and if we didn't show them who we really were, they would have destroyed us," Trini said, defending Adam and her friends.
"VICTORIA, THINGS HAVE CHANGED IN OVER FOUR THOUSAND YEARS."
"So I see."
"Victoria, do you know anything about Kamia's powers?" Jason asked, now getting to the important part.
"Yes. She as a long list of powers and it seems that time traveling spend them up. She is able to control her ooze into anything she wants at will. Her ooze can read people's minds, harden on impact, send electricity into anything it touches, control objects and people, and it is also a protective safe guard."
"What about the disappearing trick through the wall?" Rocky asked.
"You have to look at it this way. She's made up of entirely of ooze. She can shift change into anyone or anything. She can materialize into her ooze stage and appear back to her normal form. While in her ooze form, she can still see where she's going so if she gets into anything, she can find it's source of power and destroy it. She's almost as strong as Ivan Ooze and that's not the worst part."
"What's the worst part?"
She looked up at Zordon with sadness in her eyes. "Ivan didn't only send Kamia. He also sent the Ectomorphicon Titans."
