Chapter 18: Cruger, We have a problem

Sky bent down to kiss Syd, but then Syd did something to make her look like she really did not love him as she had said.

"Syd, Are you angry with me?"

"No, why?"

"Well, I wanted to kiss you, but then you walked away"

"Oh, I'm sorry, but that is why I did. Look!"

Sky looked at what Syd was pointing at only to find a bunch of Krybots and something only Syd recognized as batlings from her families time as rangers. Sky radioed into the Academy.

"Kat, you need to send Z and Bridge and the Commander. We have a little bit more than a problem"

"Kat," Syd began "Please is there any way that I can fight, I really need to."

"Syd my decision stands on the day and if you did you would be fighting against medical advice."

"I'll send them Sky"

"Thanks"

"Sky, I know more about batlings and Vypra than anyone, I want and need to fight."

"Syd, you heard…"

Cutting Sky off Syd said "Sky, you need me and besides I have something that no one else has."

"What?"

"Knowledge from my Uncle who served Diabolico because he didn't remember the truth; plus I have access to my dad's morpher, since he didn't believe that there was any power left. I also have things from my parents so that I didn't have to drive every weekend, so whenever I need power to goon or wanted to see them, my uncle allowed me to keep my dad's old morpher and my mom's jacket that he got from your mom. That was so I didn't have to drive to Mariner Bay every time I wanted to feel like they were near, since my mom and dad and I had to be separated in order for me to be safe. Sky, you wanted to put back mirloc after he got out, please allow me to help with some of the ones that hurt my parents."

"Okay, I will let you fight, under the condition that you promise me that if you get too tired you will tell me so that I can get you out of there."

"Alright, I promise"

"Alright, I guess we'll have 2 red rangers out there and here"

"My dad's jacket, Thanks Sky"

"Looks better on you than me"

"Remind me to give you something when we get back."

First Syd morphed.

"LIGHTSPEED RESCUE"

After Syd came with a new beautiful red lightspeed ranger outfit, and then all of a sudden turned to dark pink, even though she had the red morpher. Then Sky morphed.

"SPD EMERGENCY"

Then they went downstairs and found that Anubis, Z, and Bridge were not there yet. Sky knew that he should keep on Vypra so Syd could focus on the batlings and the krybots; however that would be 

impossible because even though that was the plan that they had wanted to happen, however that plan was changed when Sky saw that General Tomars and another monster that Syd knew as Shockatron.

"Not that pesky pink lightspeed ranger"

"No, Vypra, I'm her daughter"

Suddenly another Lightspeed monster showed, but this one made Syd worry completely because standing right in front of her was Diabolico."

"Tell your traitorous uncle hello for me and here is a gift for you"

Something struck Syd and made her scream, demorph, and then collapse."

"Your uncle delt with the same gift"

Right after Diabolico left as well as everyone else, The Commander, Bridge, and Z showed up. Bridge was the first one to talk.

"What was…? Who in buttered toast was that?"

"That Bridge was a monster known as Diabolico"

"How did you know that was him Syd?"

"My parents fought him"

"Your mom is a teacher and doctor, and your dad is a firefighter, they are certainly no ranger"

"Yeah, they are and they were"

"I'll explain in a little bit"

"Syd, what did Diabolico mean the same gift as your uncle"

"Oh, god, I forgot that, I guess it is time to call Uncle Ryan to find out how he got rid of it"

Sky immediately asked the question that all the rest wanted to know too.

"Rid of what Syd?"

"Let's go upstairs, that way keep watch while I can tell you."

They all walked up the stairs to the loft where they had been just moments before. And when they were all upstairs, the five of them sat down.

"Commander, I need to take my SPD morpher away from me and Sky, I need you to take my dad's"

Anubis took her pink morpher and Sky took Carter's old morpher. Although Syd kept her mom's and dad's jackets for her since they would have nothing to do with the so called gift that Diabolico gave her.

"Why did you hand the morphers over to me and Cadet Tate, cadet?"

"Syd, I heard what was going on with the other cadets, but don't you dare leave"

"I'm not leavingZ, I did because I don't want to be tempted to morph, because I think Diabolico brought back something that almost killed my uncle. It is called the Cobra Curse. Basically it is a tattoo of a cobra that is alive and every time that I morph from now on , it would go up my back until it gets to my neck and destroys me, at least that is the only gift that I can think of that Diabolico ever gave my uncle."

"Oh, my god, Syd"

"I will be fine as long as I do not morph"
