Ivan is Back
Chapter Two - The Fall of Aquitar
On a deserted planet Ivan Ooze and his foot soldiers were plotting the best way to destroy the power rangers when Ivan used his new ability to sense where the ninjetti warriors that trapped him inside that comet were. He could only sense five on earth but located the wolf on the distant planet of Aquitar along with the aquitian rangers. He let out an evil chuckle and informed his minions of the new plan.
"We are going to attack the wolf's new home. Let him know that the Ooze is back. Meanwhile, send a group to earth and attack the most recent group of teenagers that held the power. The samurai rangers...attack, but do not kill. I want to make those ninjetti brats sweat." Ivan told his general.
As he stared off into the direction of Aquitar he says, "I'm coming for you blue boy."
Meanwhile in Paranorma City, the rangers are relaxing and regrouping after their last battle with Master Xandred. Mike and Kevin had gone into the city to get some equipment to repair the communication system while Mia was attempting to cook fish under the watchful eye of Antonio. Lauren, Jayden, and Emily were just relaxing when the smoke alarm rang throughout the house.
"Jayden, your girlfriend can't cook. That's all there is to it, that was the third fish she burned." Antonio cried coming from the kitchen waving a dish towel to fan the smoke away.
Jayden just laughed at his friend and took his new girlfriend into his arms kissing her head before saying. "I'm not with her for her cooking skills 'Tonio."
Mia lightly smacked his arm but before their playful banter could continue Emily and Lauren came in with grim looks.
"Kevin just called. Purple slime creatures are attacking the city. We need to go." Lauren spoke.
The rangers rushed out of Shiba house not even thinking twice that their powers were completely drained when helping Jayden power the sealing symbol to destroy Xandred. As they continued into the city they could see where people were starting to act rashly and others were getting hurt by tripping over the mayhem left behind in the chaos. Lauren and Mia stayed back to help a couple of kids get safely to their parents before continuing on after their friends. They arrived in time to see Mike run at one of the creatures with a chair but the creature just reformed and snapped Mike's arm like a twig.
"See you soon kids." it chuckled before melting away.
Emily and Kevin rushed to Mike and were able to use broken chair peices to form a sort of splint to keep his arm straight until they got back to Shiba house where they could properly bandage it. They got back to Shiba house where Mentor Ji was already looking through ranger team files to see if there was a connection between a previous team and these mysterious creatures created of slime. While kevin and Emily took care of Mike's broken arm the others sat down to help Mentor.
"Mentor, how are we supposed to stop these creatures without our powers?" Lauren asked as she watched Mike wince in pain.
"For now, we just have to hope there is a connection somewhere in the archives and that someone will be able to shed some light on what these creatures are. In the meantime, protect the city the best we can and try to keep the damage to a minimum." was the reply she got.
Accepting this was the only answer they were going to get the rangers continued their search for a connection completely unaware of the dangers a fellow team of protectors were facing galaxies away.
"Aquitar Ranger Power!" Billy heard five familiar voices cry through the mayhem.
He turned his head just in time to see the rangers form a barrier around a group of children. He watched as the planet he had come to call home was falling around him and he had no means to help defend it. When a hand tightened around his forearm pulling him towards the teleportation pods he knew what they were going to do. He was being sent back to Earth to help his team. Just as the pod was about to take off he caught a glimpse of his life partner Cestria rushing through the chaos. Before she was close enough to touch the pod and say goodbye Ivan Ooze ripped her head from her body.
Even as the pod left the planet Billy could see the rangers fall to Ivan's evil forces. He sat there in the pod as his home, his life, and his friends were all destroyed by a monster. He realized now that the wolf was trying to warn him of this and he ignored it. He should have know that the wolf wouldn't cry out like that unless something had happened to the ninjetti or a force of evil such as Ooze was active. He ignored the wolf before and now the wolf is furious and vowed to stop Ivan and his creatures.
Back on Earth, Mentor Ji was finally down to the last folder. The original team of rangers; the mighty morphin power rangers. He read through the folder about their history until finally he caught something. In 1995, Ivan Ooze was released from his hyper-lock chamber in Angel Grove and managed to sever the rangers connection to the morphing grid. Their mentor Zordon and his assistant Alpha 5 managed to send the rangers to the distant planet of Phaedos where they were met by a warrior named Dulcea who helped guide them to the power of the ancient ninjetti to stop Ivan Ooze. As he continued to look through the folder for an contact information he was only able to find one. Kimberly Hart...
