Theodore walked through the door, to what appeared to be a metal room. The room was gigantic. Even a footstep could echo inside. As Theodore walked he noticed that one path was different tile than the others...it must mean to stay on the path. After seeing that the rest of the floor was made up of metal, Theodore continued to walk down as he then heard strange sounds. The most notable sound was a horse galloping and the sounds of fire. As he reached a circular platform, he started to see that walls began to shift and turn until he saw that the metal had just began to sink . the realization that he was inside the volcano. the sudden rush of heat made him move back until he realized there was no supports. he fell off but managing to grab hold of the platform. He managed to climb back up and as he got onto the platform, he laid on the ground trying to catch his breath. After a minute or two he heard the sounds of the horse neighing once again. he looked around the neighing seemed to everywhere, but nothing of a physical form was seen. Theodore became more and more confused as suddenly, a horse made of pure fire galloped onto the platform recklessly. the creature looked angry at Theodore, as it charged at him.. Theodore barely able to escape it's path but feeling the intense heat was next to unbearable. Theodore felt that the horse must be the creature that he was meant to slay, in order to get his powers. Theodore just looked at the creature as the creature looked back.
inside of the room, Lena was sitting on the bench still in pain. She took some medicine from the bag and applied it to herself. Though she wasn't a medical expert, it was the best she could do. The medicine was slowly working as she waited. she said to herself "Theodore, please be safe.." but as soon as she heard that, sounds that she didn't want to hear was starting to come through…...machines being destroyed. The turrets outside were being destroyed by something, one by one. Lena's face became one of pure fear. As the turrets were being destroyed, footsteps becoming louder and louder against the metal floor. Lena crawled to a corner, she tried to be as quiet as she could...she had the vibro daggers in her hands. She never would have showed fear this way but she had no choice. The footsteps became louder, now the sounds of claws, claws scratching against the metal. The sounds was ghastly, making her ears hurt so bad she covered her ears and closed her eyes. She then heard nothing, as the sounds were gone. Lena looked around and saw that everything was the same, until a pair of claws was starting to cut through the door. Lena was trying her best not scream but as soon as the cut was from the ceiling to the floor, a voice just said "the master, will be able to have you as a meal" it was winglion, the monster from before. He was pushing open the cut on the door till he was able to fit. The creature's body was filled with bullet holes, his purple blood was spewing out "little girl, your defenses will not save you..." he said as Lena got up by leaning against the wall. She held her vibro daggers in her hand and as the creature came closer. He grabbed her neck and then began to squeeze her neck. She stabbed his chest and the creature let go, taken back by the attack. Lena started to swing the daggers with skill. Though she couldn't move that well because of her leg. She tried to hold him off, but then the creature just looked around and then said "I have an idea, let's get some fresh air. He started to flap his wings and then began to create a whirlwind in the room. The room's interior was being destroyed everything was in the air. Winglion grabbed Lena and slashed at her leg and threw her against the wall
Theodore and the creature were locked eye to eye, breathing heavily. Theodore's body significantly burned by the creature. Theodore said "I won't give up here..." but as soon as he heard that he heard a scream come from the room Lena was in. Theodore looked at the room and then at the creature. He had to make a tough choice and so he did...he went to save Lena... the creature looking at Theodore with confusion just watched as Theodore went to the door only to have Lena fly through the door at onto the platform. Lena looked at Theodore and said "Theodore, that creature winglion got through..." Theodore saw winglion coming to them "well, it seems that not only I have two tasty meals...I have a place to cook the meat." Theodore got up while helping Lena. He ran to the very end of the platform, the lava had started up and was beginning to become pillar around the platform. winglion looked at the creatures "tell me you two, you got this far only to see that nothing is here?" then as soon as he said that, the horse made of fire appeared and attacked winglion sending him flying into the wall of the volcano, falling into the lava. Theodore looked at the creature and as she then creature came closer to them; the flames and heat were vanishing. Revealing a simple brown horse, he was in pain as it was bleeding in his leg. "You were scared aren't you?" he as he gently patted the horse, the horse responding to its touch "Theodore fortnight, I have been watching you...I am the zodiac spirit of fire. Ulin, through sacrifice and love, you put those needs in front of your own...now you must help us...you must find your team.." as he looked at Lena and then back at Theodore "...you must also find the other spirits, they are hidden inside of each other biomes" as he finished, a morpher appeared on Theodore wrist, the morpher was the sign of Aries, the zodiac symbol of courage, friendship and leadership. "there is a price, to using my power...in order to fight, we must become one and our life force but be combined...until we both are strong enough to co-exist" Theodore was worried about what was said "will you help me fight these creatures….and save my classmates?" ulin bowed his head and said "yes, as long as you help the other spirits" with that Theodore said "then I will" Lena looked at with shocked "Theodore, are you sure you want to do this? What if this is a bad idea?" Theodore cut her off saying "it's the only way…" then with that the morpher began to glow and ulin jumped inside of Theodore, becoming one with ulin. His body became warmer, as the burns on his bodies began to heal. Theodore felt his body become slightly heavier. He then looked at the morpher on his wrist and then said "ARIES GIVE ME STRENGTH" with a barrier of fire around him for a few seconds, it disbursed only for Theodore to have on a red ranger suit with five zodiac symbols on his chest. His helmet had the symbol of Aries on it and. he looked at his hands and saw that he had on white gloves and white boots. He looked at Lena and said "holy shit, am I really a red ranger?" Lena was happy for him, but the happiness was short lived by the sounds of angry screams and a sudden rise of wind tunnels "damn you….why must you zodiac spirits always interfere!" it was winglion, this time his burn has second degree burns and his wings were skeletal, and twice as big from last time.
Theodore looked at him and said "how did that lava not kill you?" winglion landed as he said "you think anything in this dome can me? I am made of the flesh of my master…" suddenly ulin talked through Theodore "your master? What are you? You are Just a foot soldier that was only meant to kill and kiss your master's feet winglion looked at Theodore and said "how dare you?!" and then charged at him. Ulin made Theodore raise his hand up and he fired a fireball from his hand. The drawback made Theodore fly back a bit, but the fireball contacted winglion hitting him hard. The screams of winglion were ghastly as the smell of burning flesh was in the air. Theodore was shocked by what had just happened. "Holy shit!" Theodore said as ulin said to him telepathically "for now, I'll control you so can get used to fighting in the suit" Theodore said nothing but it felt weird to him, a person controlling him and not having any control. Theodore than charged at winglion. Punched him a few times and then grabbed winglion's torso. Winglion laughed as he said "are you trying to feel me up boy?" then suddenly winglion felt a strong burning sensation and then fire appeared on his body. Theodore then just pulled out his zodiac blaster, aimed it at him and then shot winglion through the heart destroying him. The creature vanished and then with a flash of light all that was left...was rocks. The rocks were around the platform and it appeared that all of the lava was gone. Theodore unmorphed and Lena looked around, Lena was shocked by what just happened and then said "Theodore, did you do this?" ulin then said through Theodore "no I did, the magma was only a mere illusion, but winglion seemed to be weaker in the magma" Theodore responded "ulin, is it possible that we both can live without you having to control me in battle?" ulin said "until, we can have a formidable place for me to rest when you need me..This will have to do. However, from this point on, ill only appears when you fight ok?" Theodore nodded as he said "gotcha.." then as looked at Lena "well what do we do now?" then as Theodore looked around he saw a door, a door that was not there before because it was covered by the lava "it appears to be a way out.." Theodore and Lena thought about it and then they both climbed down rocks. They climbed down until they reached the doorway going through it...leaving the volcano behind.
3:20pm
On the outside, the commander of the U.R.F was sitting in his office. He was trying to find a way to help the students on the inside of the dome. He smelled of sweat and scotch, the look of exhaustion was on his face. Circles around his eyes, the look for a five o'clock shadow and sweat on his shirt. Lady Julia came and said "sir, do you have a minute? "The commander looked at her and said "Miss Evershadow, what do you need?" Julia looked at him, smelling the sweat in the room and summoning a few vases of flowers around his office "sir, I just wanted to know. How did those creatures get into the dome?" then as the commander looked at her and growled "you guess is as good as mine, this was never meant to happen!" he said as he got and then looked at a stack of paper "you know what those are, lady evershadow?" she shook her head and then he said "these are letter...these are letters being sent. To the dead kid's parents" she then grabbed the letters, searching through them. she looked at them frantically, and then after a few minutes she sighed of relief "thank god, Theodore is ok" the commander looked at her and said "a lot of the kids are still alive, I just wish that there was a way that we could get a hold of them.." then as he said that Julia responded "sir, there is a way.."
Back in the dome, Theodore and Lena were outside of the volcano. The two were trying to get their bearings after the shitstorm which was the volcano. The sides of the volcano near the exit. Theodore then said to Lena "I swear to everything that good, we barely escaped with our lives back there" he said as Lena felt a vibration. It was the holomap. She pulled out the holo map to reveal that there was an incoming message. Lena pressed the button on the holomap and then it revealed to be Lady Julia. "hello, my name is lady Julia evershadow….I am the head of the magic user's council…..what is your name and rank young woman" Lena said to her "my name is Lena kablowski, team four's yellow ranger" she said as Theodore said next to her "Julia!" Julia became shocked "Theodore! Are you ok?" she said as Theodore said to her "yes, although...a lot of people died in front Julia...and those creature..." Julia looked at the two and said "we know Theodore, however we cannot open the door...something is keeping you kids inside" then as she said, Julia noticed a strange item on Theodore's wrist "Theodore, you have the aeries morpher..." Theodore nodded as he said "yes, I just passed ulin's trial" then as soon as he said that Julia's eyes widened as she thought to herself for a few seconds and then said "then there is a way than…" the two looked at her with confusion "listen, I have a way you can escape. But it is going to be dangerous" Theodore and Lena looked at each other with confusion. Theodore looked at her and said "what is it?" Julia said to him as four small windows appeared on the holo window. They were various blueprints, a picture of all five morphers, the vital signs of the two, and the last of which was weird...a map. the map had not only the whole map….but it could be sectioned off by each of the biomes "in each biome Theodore is a spirit, the spirit not only is the one controls of the morpher...but each biome controls an off switch for the door" Lena then said "so if we get each of the morphers, the doors will open…" Julia said to the two "yes, however...you can only use one morpher each. As the zodiac spirits need you as a host" Theodore and Lena were quiet, they had known this as then Julia said "you will, need to other team members" Theodore and Lena nodded. "one last thing you two, if Theodore got the Aries morpher...then I suggest...going to the tundra next...there is a massive advantage if you go" sudden static was being heard from the other side and then out of nowhere the feed that Julia was on...was gone.
5:57pm
Theodore and Lena were silent; they knew what they had to do but….the their feet were frozen in place. Theodore was thinking to himself as Lena was looking at the holomap. She was trying to look for anything of interest...after a few minutes she stood up. "Theodore, I think I found something of interest" he looked at the map and saw a circle. It was a med station "Lena we need and get there. The creatures may come out soon" the two got up and started to walk near a small forest like area.
The forest seemed quiet; the feeling of fear and anxiety was in the air. The sun was cloaked with the tall trees as the ground seemed moist. Lena looked on her as Theodore walked behind her. Theodore suddenly felt like he was being watching, a feeling when the two encountered winglion but as he looked around, he heard the sounds of large object falling. It was Lena on the ground and was out cold. Theodore raced to her as he said to her, kneeling on one knee "Lena?! Are you ok?" Lena's leg had spots of purple and green and the veins in her leg were black "Theodore, stop the pain..." Theodore was confused as ulin said through Theodore "child, you were poisoned...by the creature I presume" Lena did not saying anything as ulin's gentle voice through Theodore said "what is it?" a giant hand hit Theodore in the back of the head. The hand threw Theodore back and as a few seconds...Lena looked at the mass as she began to lose consciousness and all she saw...was a pair of brown eyes. Lena fell unconscious after that
