Chapter 43: The Stench Returns
At Boardman High, the cast of Fiddler on the Roof were practicing with their songs.
Brittany: Matchmaker, Matchmaker,
Make me a match,
Find me a find,
catch me a catch
Matchmaker, Matchmaker
Look through your book,
And make me a perfect match
Jessica: Matchmaker, Matchmaker,
I'll bring the veil,
You bring the groom,
Slender and pale.
Bring me a ring for I'm longing to be,
The envy of all I see.
Brittany: For Papa,
Make him a scholar.
Jessica: For mama,
Make him rich as a king.
Brittany & Jessica: For me, well,
I wouldn't holler
If he were as handsome as anything.
Matchmaker, Matchmaker,
Make me a match,
Find me a find,
Catch me a catch,
Night after night in the dark I'm alone
So find me match,
Of my own.
Paige: "Since when are you in a match, Chava? I thought you had your eye on your books. And you have your eye on the Rabbi's son."
Brittany: "Well, why not? We have only one Rabbi and he has only one son. Why shouldn't I want the best?"
Paige: "Because you're a girl from a poor family. So whatever Yenta brings, you'll take, right? Of course right!"
Hodel, oh Hodel,
Have I made a match for you!
He's handsome, he's young!
Alright, he's 62.
But he's a nice man, a good catch, true?
True.
I promise you'll be happy,
And even if you're not,
There's more to life than that-
Don't ask me what.
Chava, I found him.
Won't you be a lucky bride!
He's handsome, he's tall,
That is from side to side.
But he's a nice man, a good catch, right?
Right.
You heard he has a temper.
He'll beat you every night,
But only when he's sober,
So you'll alright.
Did you think you'd get a prince?
Well I do the best I can.
With no dowry, no money, no family background
Be glad you got a man!
Jessica: Matchmaker, Matchmaker,
You know that I'm
Still very young.
Please, take your time.
Brittany: Up to this minute,
I misunderstood
That I could get stuck for good.
Brittany & Jessica: Dear Yenta,
See that he's gentle
Remember,
You were also a bride.
It's not that
I'm sentimental
Paige, Brittany, & Jessica: It's just that I'm terrified!
Matchmaker, Matchmaker,
Plan me no plans
I'm in no rush
Maybe I've learned
Playing with matches
A girl can get burned
So,
Bring me no ring
Groom me no groom
Find me no find
Catch me no catch
Unless he's a matchless match
The rest of the cast applauded as Paige, Brittany, and Jessica finished the song. "Great job girls," Mullane said as the students were slowly stopping applaud. But then everyone can hear one last person clapping.
They turned to see a dark haired man in a dark suit, "I say that was amazing," he said.
"Excuse me sir, but who are you? This is a private rehearsal," Mullane said.
"Sorry, I'm Luke Talsman, the new reporter for the Vindicator," the man introduced himself, "And I wanted to see how Boardman High is doing with their play."
"Well like I said this is a private rehearsal," Mullane replied as he walked up to the man, "Now do you mind leaving."
"Fine," Luke said, "I will back though." Then Luke left the room and headed for the exit.
After an hour since the man left Mullane decided to call it a night. Everyone was packing up their stuff, the Rangers noticed that Z was the first one out of the room. "Man Z is doing anything he can to avoid us," Emile said.
"Well we should leave him alone till he's ready to talk to us again," Haley suggested.
The rest of the Rangers agreed with Haley's suggestion.
On the moon, Zedd and Rita were looking over the balcony, "Ha! I just knew the Rangers would never see it!" Zedd shouted.
"I thought the Rangers would of seen right though it and get ready to fight," Rita said.
"My lord, what are you talking about?" Goldar asked.
"It's my latest monster," Zedd replied, "When the Rangers least expect it, he will attack and destroy them!"
Unknown to everyone else, Rito sneaked out the throne room with Zedd's staff, "Okay, let's see if this will work," he said as he pulled out an vial of green goo and a Dark Jewel and placed them on the ground. Then Rito raised the staff over the two objects and lightning hit the two objects. Then in a flash Slobella was standing in front of Rito.
"Rito? What happened? I thought I was destroyed," Slobella said.
"Well my dear, I'll explain everything to once we get thing set for your return," Rito said.
The next day, Brittany was getting ready to go out, "Bye mom, see you when I get back," she said as she was heading for the door.
"Brittany," her mom called out, "Did you forget what was today?"
"What?" Brittany asked.
"Today you're are going to be interview for St. Anne's School for Girls," Brittany's mom said.
"Oh yeah," Brittany said, "I forgot. "Don't worry I'll be back soon." The Brittany went out the door.
Later that day, Brittany was with Julian and Jon at the park, where she told them about the interview. "So what do you want to do?" Jon asked.
"I don't know," Brittany replied, "St. Anne is a great school but it's on the other side of the state."
"Ah look, two Rangers out in the open!" Rito said as he and Slobella walked out of the bushes.
"Rito!" Jon shouted.
And...Slobella?" Brittany questioned, "I thought we destroyed you?"
"Well thanks to my darling, Rito, I walk amongst the living again," Slobella said.
"Ah, if I had skin, I would be blushing by now," Rito said.
"Oh stop that, you two are making me sick!" Julian shouted.
"Ah shut up!" Rito shouted, "Tengas attack!"
Soon a group of Tengas appeared around the teens, "Julian stand back!" Jon shouted as he and Brittany got ready to fight.
A Tenga lunge at Jon, were Jon quickly dodge the attack.
They've got a feathered face,
They've got funny beak.
Jon then countered the attack with a kick.
IQ of under 10,
They're loud and noisy!
Jon then saw a few more Tengas running at him.
They smell like spoiled fish on a hot, hot summer's day.
Jon ducked and did a low kick, knocking the Tengas down.
Cross-eyed crazy nuts who fly above us!
A Tenga tried to attack from behind, but Brittany punched it way.
Ugly ugly birdies in the sky,
Rangers gonna get you!
"Thanks Brittany," Jon said as he got back up.
Watch the Tenga,
Watch the Tenga,
Watch the Tenga,
Tenga bye bye!
"No problem," Brittany said as she block another Tenga's attack.
Bir-bir-bir-bir-bird brain don't mess with me,
She grab the Tenga's arm and kicked it away.
'Cuz you ain't got a chance!
Brittany saw two Tengas running at her, she jumped into the air and kicked both the Tengas.
We're gonna send you back to the bird sanctuary!
A Tenga took her by surprise by grabbing her from behind.
Where you will spend your days,
Learning to basket weave.
A Tenga was charging at her, but she kicked it away.
Don't look now, you better run,
Why don't you just fly away?
Brittany tried to shake the Tenga off, but couldn't.
Ugly ugly birdies in the sky,
Rangers gonna get you!
Julian then grabbed the Tenga and was able to toss the Tenga off.
Watch the Tenga,
Watch the Tenga,
Watch the Tenga,
Tenga bye bye!
"Great were still losing!" A Tenga shouted.
Ugly ugly birdies in the sky,
Rangers gonna get you!
"I think it's the cold weather, let's get out of here," another Tenga said.
Watch the Tenga,
Watch the Tenga,
Watch the Tenga,
Then Tengas flew off.
Tenga bye bye!
"Well we needed to be on our way," Rito said.
"Yes but let me leave you a gift," Slobella said as she fired a green beam that hit Brittany, Till next time." Then Rito and Slobella teleported away.
"Are you alright Brittany?" Jon asked as he and Julian went to Brittany.
"Yeah I think so," Brittany said. She checked her watch to see what time it is, "Crap I'm going to be late for my interview."
"Don't worry, I'll get you home," Julian said.
"And I'll go to the Command Center and tell the others about Slobella's return," Jon said.
Julian and Brittany were heading for his car as Jon teleported way.
Later at the Command Center, Jon told Zordon, Alpha, and the other Rangers about what happened.
"Slobella's back?" Tyler asked.
"Yes," Jon replied, "I don't know how though."
"Rangers, might to be more caution then last time," Zordon said, "Slobella might not be easy to defeat then last time."
"We just need clean her a different way than last time," Paige said.
"How about we use Super Soakers to clean her off this time?" Chris suggested.
The Rangers started to smile to each other at Chris's idea, "Anyone have Super Soakers?" Emile asked.
Back at the park, Rito and Slobella were relaxing under a dying tree, "This is the life, right sweetheart?" Rito said.
"When we are together it will always be perfect," Slobella said.
"Oh come on! Don't make us throw up in our helmets!" Haley shouted as the six Rangers, morphed, arrived with the water gun known as Super Soakers in hand.
"Why do you Rangers keep bugging us when we want to be alone!" Slobella shouted.
"Because we can't let monsters like you wonder around!" Tyler shouted, "Fire at will!"
The Rangers pumped the water guns and started to spray the monster with soapy water they put in the water guns.
"Ah! Not soap! Not again!" Slobella shouted as the Rangers continue to spray Slobella. Yet when the Rangers were spraying her, she didn't feel any different, "I don't feel my powers fading away."
"I know," Rito said as he pulled out a flame thrower and fired it at the Rangers, making them fall to the ground, "It's because I gave you a power boost."
"What power boost?" Jon said as the Rangers were getting back up.
"Oh I gave her a Dark Jewel so now no matter how much you clean her, she won't lose her powers," Rito explained.
"So that explains my new power as well," Slobella said.
"What power?" Haley said.
"Well it seem I got the power to turn other girl into slobs like myself," Slobella said.
"Well guys, it looks like we have to do this the old fashion way," Tyler said, "Ready Light Javelins!"
At the Command Center, Alpha and Zordon were watching the battle, "Ayeyaiyai! Zordon what can the Rangers do to defeat Slobella?"
"I believe the only way to stop Slobella this time is to destroy the Dark Jewel inside her," Zordon explained.
Back at the fight, Tyler, Jon and Emile were fighting Slobella while the others were fighting Rito.
Jon and Tyler tried to stab Slobella with their Javelins, but she caught them and kicked Emile, who was trying to sneak behind her.
"You can't stop me!" Slobella shouted as she let out a loud burp that shook the ground, making the Rangers lose their footing and making them fall.
"Ha, now we have them now!" Rito shouted.
Then unknown to ant one a dark ball of energy flew though the air and hit Slabella. "Um Rito I don't feel so good," Slobella said.
"What?" Rito could say before Slobella exploded right in front of him. "Huh? But? How? Rangers!"
"Hey don't look at us," Tyler said, "We don't know what happened as well."
Before Rito can take a step towards the Rangers something grabbed Rito and knocked him to the ground. The Rangers saw a large ferocious wolf creature in black armor on top of Rito. "Rito, Zedd and Rita needs to see you!" it said as it teleported away with Rito, leaving the Rangers confused.
Back on the moon, Rito appeared back in the throne room with the wolf monster. "What's going on?" Rito asked.
"We would like to know what you were thinking when you went to Earth with that monster," Rita said.
"Hey I was getting lonely and I missed her," Rito replied in a sad tone.
"Well you are excused since your stunt helped us show that the Rangers are still not ready to stand up to the Dark Jewels," Zedd explained.
At the Command Center, the Rangers were gathered to listen to what Zordon had to say, "Rangers," he started, "Today I was disappointed at what happened. You Rangers should have started to master the Light Power and used its power to defeat Slobella. Today we were lucky but now Zedd and Rita can use this weakness against us next time. You'll all have to train harder to master the Light Power to stop Zedd and Rita."
"We're sorry Zordon, we'll train harder," Tyler answered for the Rangers.
The next day at school, the Rangers were sitting in the cafeteria think on what Zordon said. "He's right you know," Tyler said.
"We know," Chris said, "But how can we train harder?"
"Who knows, but we need to do this to beat Zedd and Rita," Brittany said.
A/N: Sorry for the wait but here's the new chapter, and I'll like to thank J.W. Appel for Slobella and Wolfbeast. and Wolfbeast will be stay for a few chapters.
