Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Next Generation
Chapter Six
It was the next day at school, everyone was talking about the Power Rangers. All of Angel Grove was excited that their heroes had returned once again. For the Rangers, it was different for them to be hearing about them being talked about.
"Man, this is weird, hearing about what we did." Karina told Bryn as they stood at each other's lockers. The two girls were becoming best friends very quickly.
"Yeah, I agree. My brother asked me why I looked like I got out of a fight." Bryn told Karina. "Also, remember what you're going to ask the others." she reminded Karina.
Karina looked down. "I don't want to bother them about something so silly." she said
"What's silly?" asked a voice. Both girls turned around to see Josh and Vega standing next to them.
"Nice streaks Vega." Bryn commented.
"Aww thank you." Vega said.
"So what's silly?" asked Josh.
"We will talk about it when the other two get here." Bryn answered.
They looked around for Maralynn, and Tess. Josh spotted Maralynn. Maralynn looked over at the others, and walked over to them. "Hey guys." she said.
"What's up?" Vega asked her.
"Not much. Last night was just weird. Nothing happened, but, it was just weird." she said.
"Yeah, nothing like finding out the world is now relying on you to make a night grand." Josh said sarcastically. The others laughed.
Then Vega caught sight of Tess. "Guy's look at Tess." he said. The others turned around and gasped. Tess was still had her goth look, but now had on yellow fingernail polish, and a yellow shirt.
Tess looked over at them, and walked up to them. "Um, hello." she said awkwardly.
"You're actually wearing something other than just black." Bryn commented, completely shocked.
"Yep. Good to know you're not color blind." Tess said. She then laughed. It took the others a minute to realize she had made a joke, and they had a bit of a shocked laugh to show they understood.
"Alright Karina, ask them." Bryn said gently, but firmly. The others looked at Karina, who looked back at the floor.
"Um, well." she started. There was no way she could ask them for help, they had only just met.
"If there is something you need, just ask." Josh said gently.
"Ok, well, I live with my brother at home by ourselves. My parents are archaeologists, and are barely home. Now that this Ranger stuff has started, it has him scared, and I can't take care of my house, and him by myself while trying to save the world." she said shamefully.
"You need help? You got it." Vega said at once. Karina's head shot up quickly.
"Yeah, we will help you out." Josh said.
"I'll do what I can." Maralynn said.
They all turned to Tess to hear her response. "Um, I guess I can help out." she said. She really didn't want to stop her loner image.
"Thanks guys, it means a lot." Karina said, smiling. Just then the bell rang, and the Rangers scurried off to class.
Elsewhere, in the Moon Palace, Thrax was thinking about how to destroy the Power Rangers. "Hmm, what will make those Rangers panic? I know! They don't have their precious Zords yet. This will be fun." he said.
He then powered up the Z Staff, and a monster appeared. "Ah, Knasty Knight. I want you to go to Earth and destroy the Power Rangers. I will make you grow, and then nothing will stop you!" Thrax said.
The Knasty Knight bowed, and then left the Moon Palace in a flash of light.
It was after school the Rangers went to the newly re-opened Juice Bar. The owner, Ernie, had come back from Africa, and decided to re claim it, and make a grand reopening.
"This is nice. Workout area and everything." Vega commented.
"Totally." Karina said.
They had been there all over 2 minutes, when their Power Watches went off. They rushed out into one of the hallways and Josh answered his watch. "This is Josh.' he said.
"Josh, this is Ninjor. The Knasty Knight has appeared on Earth, and is causing mayhem. You must stop him." Ninjor said.
"Alright Ninjor. Let's do it guys." Josh said. The others nodded.
"It's Morphin Time." they called out.
"White Ranger Power!"
"Black Ranger Power!"
"Pink Ranger Power!"
"Blue Ranger Power!"
"Yellow Ranger Power!"
"Red Ranger Power!"
The six Rangers then teleported to the city where they saw the Knasty Knight. He was an all black knight with a sword, and a shield.
"Let's get him!" Josh cried out. The Rangers pulled out their Power weapons, and charged him down. The Knasty Knight stuck them, and sent them all flying.
"Man, this guy is tough." Vega called out to the others.
"Power Blaster time!" Karina said.
"Power Axe!" yelled Bryn
Power Bow!" called Maralynn
"Power Daggers!" roared Tess
"Power Lance!" called Karina
"Power Sword!" yelled Josh finally. The weapons combined to make the Power Blaster, and the Rangers fired it at the Knasty Knight, the attack struck him and sent him to the ground. Suddenly, the Knasty Knight grew to be about 80 feet tall.
"Holy crap!" yelled Tess.
"What do we do?" cried Maralynn.
"Rangers, the time has come to summon your Zords. Call you your respective Dino Zord, and they will answer you. Vega, teleport back to the Temple!" Ninjor said.
Vega looked at the others. "Sorry guys." he said before teleporting.
"Alright lets do this!" Tyrannosaurus Dino Zord!" Josh called out.
"Mastadon Dino Zord!" called Bryn.
"Triceratops Dino Zord!" yelled Karina
"Saber-Tooth Tiger Dino Zord!" roared Tess.
"Pterodactyl Dino Zord!" yelled Maralynn.
The Ranger didn't have to wait long until their Dino Zords appeared. Each Ranger jumped into their respective Dino Zord, and entered the cockpit.
"Sweet." Maralynn said.
"Alright, let's see what these things can do." Josh said.
"Right!" the other Rangers called out.
The Zords then began attacking the Knasty Knight. The attack was proving to successful, until the Knasty Knight struck at them. Only Maralynn's Zord wasn't affected by the attack.
"Guys, you alright?" Maralynn cried to her team.
"Yeah, but I think it's time to form the Megazord." Karina said.
"Best idea I have heard. Let's do it." Joash said. "Activate you Power crystals." he told them.
The Rangers powered up their crystals, and connected them to their control panels. The Zords then began forming, and then the Megazord was formed.
"This is awesome!" Bryn exclaimed.
"Power Sword!" Josh called out. Out of the sky, the Power Sword hit the ground, and the Megazord picked it up. It was then on another sword fight with the Knasty Knight.
"Power Sword, power up!" the Rangers called out. The Power Sword then began to glow, and the Megazord struck the Knasty Knight. He fell down into an explosion. The Rangers began cheering. They had won another battle.
Back at the temple, Vega was fuming. "Ninjor, why did you call me back here? Why didn't you let me help my friends?" he demanded.
Ninjor sighed. "You are here because unlike the other Rangers, you have to go find your Dino Zord, the Titanus. You are being sent on a quest to find him, a quest you cannot afford to fail." Ninjor said gravely.
Vega thought for a moment, then looked at Ninjor. "Tell me what I have to do." he said boldly.
So the Rangers now have their Zords, and Vega is being sent on a quest to find Titanus.
Next time on MMPR: NG- Vega goes out in search of Titanus, while the Rangers fight the Minotaur. Can the five succeed without their sixth Ranger?
