This had been one of the weirdest days in Jason's life, that was for certain. From learning that he was a hero in another Earth, to becoming a hero himself, and now there was a talking sword in his hand.

"I...I'm sorry but...did you just talk?" the red ranger asked in shock.

"As a matter of fact I did," Saba replied, "to your left."

Jason spun around and, using Saba, defeated an attacking putty patroller. Backing up a couple of feet the red ranger looked back at the tiger head on top of the sword and shook his head hard.

"You know what, not even going to question it," he muttered, "So what do you need?"

"Conner needed you and the others to assist him after you're finished with the putties," Saba told the red ranger, "while he's sure that him, Tommy, and Kimberly can hold him off he would like for the rest of you to help force him to retreat."

Jason felt his blood run cold as he looked over at the fight, Kimberly keeping her distance and using her bow as Tommy and Conner used their own weapons to fight the red menace. He watched as Zedd swung his staff around, effectively blocking and attacking in a smooth transition, knocking the two rangers back a few feet before firing some lightning at the pink ranger. He wasn't sure that they would be able to help them, Conner had basically told them that they weren't even able to beat Zedd on his Earth, but he also knew that if they failed here then their Earth was doomed.

"Right, we'll finish up over here and then head over to help," Jason said with a nod, "I'll tell the others."

"Excellent," Saba replied, "oh and Jason…"

"Yeah?"

"Could you please toss me towards Conner?" the saber asked with a twist towards the white ranger.

Jason didn't question it, instead flinging Saba towards his partner and watch in awe as the saber flew straight and true. With a quick shake of his head Jason turned back towards the others and rushed off to help them, noticing that Trini needed his help.

"Whoa!" Conner yelped as he was flipped through the air, pushing himself up in time only to be knocked down again as the green ranger collided with him.

"Well this could be going better," Tommy groaned rolling off Conner.

"Tell me about it…"

Getting off the ground the two rangers felt a sting of pain course through their bodies as they stood up, both of them clutching their sides as Kimberly made her way over to them.

"This isn't good, you guys are too battered to keep going," she pointed out, concern lacing her voice.

"We'll be fine Kim," Conner promised panting, "right now we just need to keep Lord Zedd occupied until the others finish."

"But Conner even if the others finish and get over here you two won't be of much help," the pink ranger noted looking at the two of them. The two were badly bruised, in fact she was surprised that they were still somehow standing after Lord Zedd's last few attacks, all three attacks having not only causing them to be pushed back further then they would like to admit, but sounding as if there might be some fractured, if not broken, bones.

"We'll be fine Kir...Kimberly," Conner said catching himself, "I'd be a piss poor ranger if I couldn't take a hit."

Though he couldn't see it, Conner was sure that Kim was blushing bright red at his words, knowing that despite the valley girl's smack talking, at this age she wouldn't have been talking the way he was. In fact he had been holding back on the way he normally talked to his friends back in his timeline.

"Conner's right," Tommy stated looking at the pink ranger, "we can't retreat, not while Zedd's still here."

The white ranger smirked and rolled his shoulders, holding out his right hand a second later to catch his partner.

"Saba did you do what I asked?"

"Affirmative Conner," Saba replied, "Jason and the others should be over here in due time."

"Thanks Saba," the white ranger praised with a nod, "now then let's hold this red idiot off for as long as we can."

"Right!" came the reply from the other two.

Kim stood back as the white and green ranger charged Lord Zedd, firing arrows at him to back the two up as they used their bladed weapons to get in close.

"You foolish pest don't know who you're messing with," Zedd bellowed as he twirled his staff to block their attacks, "I am Lord Zedd emperor of all you see, and once I finish you this world will be mine!"

"You keep saying that but you still haven't figured out that we're not going to let that happened," Conner retorted as he fired some lasers from Saba's eyes.

Just as Zedd blocked his attack though he was quickly blindsided by an arrow striking his knee and the green ranger slashing his shoulder. Falling to his knee Zedd looked up and growled as he reached down and pulled the arrow out from his body and stood up.

"Do you really believe that can stop me?" he asked the three rangers, "I have fought Zordon himself when he was in his prime and it took him much longer to finish me off."

"Okay so this doesn't seem to be working," Tommy said as they took a step back, "any other ideas."

"We're doing what we need to," Conner explained, "as I said we're just holding him off until the others are finished then we'll see what we can do with all seven of us."

"So what I'm hearing is we don't really have a plan," Kim muttered suddenly feeling like she was about to throw up out of fear.

"There's never really time to plan attack against someone like Zedd," Conner told the pink ranger, "sorry…"

"No it's...it's fine, we can do this," she said resolving herself.

"That's the spirit Kim."

Tommy smiled and placed his hand on the pink ranger's shoulder, giving it a reassuring squeeze before returning his attention the task at hand. Getting fed up with being ignored, Zedd sent a burst of energy out from his staff and chuckled as the three were lifted from the ground and held in midair.

"You see this is what happens when you forget about your opponent," he told them as he walked over to stand in front of the rangers, "he started to get annoyed that you are ignoring him, so he has to do something to remind you he's here, like I don't know, DESTROY YOU!"

"We won't let that happen!"

"What?" Zedd asked spinning around.

A blur of red and a shower of sparks later, the three were allowed to fall to the ground as Jason landing in front of them. The other followed soon after, helping the three up onto their feet.

"You guys okay?" Zack asked with a quick nod of his head to Lord Zedd, "looks like was tossing you around like it was nothing."

"Yeah feels like it too," Conner mumbled shaking his head, "But now that the rest of you are here maybe we can get him to retreat."

"Yeah Jason mentioned something about that," Trini said folding her arms over her chest, "he also mentioned something about a talking sword."

"Eh yeah that would be Saba," Conner replied holding up his partner, "say hello to the others."

"Hello rangers, it's a pleasure to finally meet you all," Saba spoke up, the rangers who hadn't heard him talk doing a double take.

"Okay now that's weird," Zack said in shock as Billy leaned forward to examine him.

"Fascinating, he's seems to be equipped with some sort of AI," the blue ranger summarized looking him over.

"I beg your pardon but I have no such thing inside me," the saber huffed, "I am an enchanted saber created to aid the white ranger in battle and to help him pilot the white tigerzord."

"Oh um...sorry?" Billy apologized rubbing the back of his neck.

"Don't worry about it Billy, right now let's focus on Zedd," Conner ordered, the others nodding as they lined up.

Seeing that the rest of them had now joined with those he was fighting against Zedd looked over and saw that all of his putties were nowhere to be seen. Tightening his grip on his staff, Zedd turned back to face the team of teenagers, his visor flashing red.

"So you've managed to defeat my putties, very well I see that I'll just have to finish you myself!"

The rangers didn't reply to his threat, instead they charged into the fight with their weapons ready. Jason, Tommy, and Conner made it to him first, all three of them with their swords aimed at him. Slashing his power sword through the air Jason made the first attempt at an attack, skidding to the side as Zedd used his staff to stave off the attack. This however left him open for Tommy and Conner to attack, both their weapons leaving a mark of white and green as they hit him. Zedd was forced back a few feet and quickly found himself being attacked once again but the blue and yellow rangers. The Emperor of Evil made quick work of them as he grabbed a hold of Billy's lance, twisting it so that it rested on the inside of his elbow and them lifting the blue ranger into the air with enough force to make Billy lose his grip.

"Whoa!"

Billy yelped as he was kicked in the stomach, flying backwards into Trini and knocking them to the ground. Spinning around Lord Zedd was met with two ranged attacks, one coming from the pink ranger's bow and the other coming from the black ranger's cannon. Using his staff he knocked the two attacks to the side, an explosion going off behind him as they hit the ground, and used his own powers to fire some lightning at the two of them.

"Watch out!" Conner said as he and Tommy jumped in front of them.

Using their blades to block the attack they did the same thing Zedd had just done and forced the attack to the side, avoiding both them and their comrades behind them.

"Fire!" Conner ordered, aiming Saba towards Zedd, Tommy doing the same with his Dragon Dagger.

The two fired their own energy attacks at the red menace, the attacks once again hitting Zedd and causing an explosion to go off around him,

"Okay now that was cool," Zack stated as he looked past the two rangers in front of him.

"No joke," Kim said walking over to Tommy.

"Looks like we're actually finding some ground on this guy," Jason pointed out as the others joined the four of them.

"Yeah but looks can be deceiving," the white ranger said, his voice carrying a serious tone to it that the others knew the fight wasn't over yet.

And over it wasn't as the rangers could see Zedd standing there when the dust cleared, the Emperor of Evil looking like he was out of breath as he clutched his staff in his hand. Zedd let out a cry of outrage, energy and lightning pulsing off of him and almost hitting the rangers.

"I am through with you bastards, forget conquering this planet, forget Zordon and his so called power rangers," Zedd bellowed as lightning continued to shot towards the rangers, "once I'm done with the seven of you, I'LL DESTROY THIS MISERABLE ROCK!"

"And that's what we're trying to avoid," Conner mumbled getting into a fighting stance, "what do you guys say, you ready to do this?"

"More than ready," Tommy replied mirroring the white ranger.

"We're ready as well," Jason stated as pointing his sword at Zedd.

"Totally," came Kim's reply.

"Affirmative!"

"Time to show this guy who he's messing with."

"He doesn't stand a chance."

The team rushed forward, Zedd visor flashing red once more before he leapt into the air and met the rangers have way, his staff meeting Saba's blade.

A/N: I had wanted to get this out a couple of weeks ago, if I'm being completely honest I wanted to get it out a day or two after the Power Ranger Movie came out. If I can have a moment to speak I want to say that I did thoroughly enjoy the Power Ranger Movie and I'm looking forward to the sequel. Anyway as always R&R and may the power protect you all.
