Chapter 58: Get in Gear
At night in Boardman Park, there was an electronic disturbance forming.
The next morning on the moon, Zedd, Goldar, Scorpina, and Finster was waiting for Gear Master. "Lord Zedd, I figured out what that disturbance we detected last night," he said.
"Well spit it out, what is it?" Zedd shouted.
"It's a time portal," Gear Master answered, "And it leads to the future."
"Why should worry about a time portal?" Goldar asked.
Gear Master pulled out a small cog that was the size of a hand, "This device combines my technology and Lord Zedd's magic and this can enhance any machine and it will only obey us."
"So in short you want us go into the future and bring back something that can destroy the Power Rangers," Scorpina clarified.
"Correct," Zedd said.
"But you won't go alone," Finster said as he pulled out a small grey ball with a red button on the top, "I created what I call a 'Putty Bomb.' When you twist and press the button, it will release Putties."
"And you will also be accompany by a new monster," Zedd said as a monster made of vines with long vine arms and a blue colored rose for a head with a small mouth with sharp teeth in the middle walked in, "I brought back the Hating Rose and made him into the Freezing Rose."
"Glad to be back, Lord Zedd," Freezing Rose said.
A Grow Grenade appeared in Zedd's hand and he gave it to Goldar, "And if things go wrong, you can use this."
"We won't fail you my lord," the three monsters said as they teleported to Earth.
"Rita would be happy when she wakes up and sees that the Power Rangers are defeated," Zedd said.
Morning at the Command Center, the Rangers arrived to see what Zordon wanted. "What is it Zordon? Are Zedd and Rita preparing an attack?" Tyler asked.
"No, but last night the computers spotted an electronic disturbance," Zordon answered.
"How is this a problem for us?" Aref asked.
"Well I analyzed this disturbance and it turns out to be a time portal," Alpha answered.
"A time portal?" Emile said in disbelief, "To the past or to future?"
"According to the scan, it goes to the future," Alpha replied.
"So if it goes to the future…" Paige started.
"Zedd and Rita can go into the future and get something that could beat us," Jon finished.
"That's correct Rangers," Zordon said.
"So what should we do?" Chris asked.
"It would be best to check out the time portal and make sure that nothing from that time period comes here," Zordon explained.
"Understood Zordon," Tyler said as he and the Rangers were about to teleport out of there.
"Wait," Zordon said to stop the Rangers, "I believe it would wise to have Z and Aref to stay behind just in case."
"I'm okay with that," Z said, "Good luck out there." The seven Rangers nodded and teleported out of there. Z let out a yawn and said, "If anyone needs me I'll be in the medical bay catching on some more sleep."
At the park, the Rangers arrived in the walkway in the woods, "Okay that portal is somewhere nearby," Tyler said as the Rangers started to explore the woods.
Haley got close to the abandoned playground and noticed what looked like orange electricity pulsing in the air. "Hey guys I think I found it!" Haley shouted.
The Rangers ran over to Haley to see the pulsing electricity, "That has to be the portal," Paige stated.
As they slowly approached the portal, they heard something flying though the air and coming closer. "Get down!" Tyler shouted as the Rangers obeyed the command and dropped to the ground.
They saw something glowing flying above them and cut though the trees. The Rangers turned to see Goldar, Scorpina, and Freezing Rose. "We just knew you Rangers would be here looking for trouble," Scorpina said.
"Well you can forget about your trip to future, because we won't let you," Chris said as the Ranger got ready to fight.
"You better move or else," Goldar threatened.
"Or else what, we already fought you before," Jon said.
Goldar fired pellets at the Rangers. They got out of the way and pulled out their Morphers.
"I don't think so!" Freezing Rose shouted as it slammed its vine-like arms on the ground and ice soon covered the ground and incased the Rangers arms and legs in ice.
"See you later Rangers," Scorpina said as the monsters walked into the orange electricity and disappeared.
"After them!" Tyler shouted as the Ranger broke the ice off of them and charged into the portal.
The Rangers arrived in an alleyway of a city, "Where are we?" Paige asked.
"More importantly; when are we?" Emile said.
Soon there was an explosion and saw what looked like soldiers running past the alley, "Grinders are attacking at the warehouse district!" one of the soldiers shouted.
"Where ever we go, trouble follows," Chris said.
"Then let's take care of this," Tyler said, "It's Mophin Time!"
"Turtle!"
"Phoenix!"
"Frog!"
"Serpent!"
"Saber-Toothed Tiger!"
"Lion!"
"Dragon!"
At the warehouse district, a bunch of robotic foot soldiers that are grey with copper armor on their feet, hands, upper bodies, their faces were covered bolts and screws, and they were all holding what looks like large screwdrivers. They were being led by a large robot that had a large drill on its upper body and drills where its hand is at. And there was a woman in a purple full body outfit and she had a visor that covered most of her face.
Soldiers got ready as they aimed their guns at the robots, "Pitiful humans," the woman said, "They think that they can take us on."
"Fire!" The soldiers fired their guns towards the robots but it wasn't doing much damage.
"Grinders, destroy them," the woman said. The Grinders charged at the soldiers, but the Rangers got in between them.
"We'll take care of this!" Tyler shouted as they got ready to fight.
"Wow Rangers, I see that you changed your suit," the woman said, "What happened did cars go out of fashion?"
"She knows about Rangers," Brittany whispered.
"So Power Rangers must exist in this time period as well," Jon whispered back.
"Well I don't care what you look, Grinders destroy them!" the woman shouted.
"So you Rangers are here!" Everyone looked up to see Freezing Rose jump down to the ground.
"What's going on here?" the woman demanded.
"I'm just here to test some robots," Freezing Rose replied, "Let's see your robots stand up to this." Freezing Rose slammed its vine arm to the ground and large ice spikes were heading for the Grinders and they pierced and tore apart each Grinder and the spikes even pierced through the larger robot. The woman was lucky to get out of the way as the large robot exploded taking out the Grinders. "What failures," Freezing Rose said.
"Come on Freezing Rose, let's find better weapons!" they heard Goldar shouted.
"Well it's my time to leave, but I know we'll meet again," Freezing Rose said as it disappeared is mini blizzard.
"I'll be back," the woman said as she walked off.
"What the hell happened?" The Rangers turned to see another team of Power Rangers. Their colors were red, blue, yellow, green, black, gold, and silver, they saw that the Yellow and Silver Rangers had skirts, showing that they are female. Five of their suits looked like they drive racecars including the safety straps on them. Those five also had numbers on their chest and the numbers looked like some sort of animal. Red's number was 1 that looked some sort of a bird, blue had a 2 that looked like a lion, yellow had 3 that looked like a bear, green had a 4 that looked like a shark, and black had a 5 that looked like a wolf. As for the Gold and Silver Rangers, part of their suits were black and had their colors cover the rest of their suits and they have a straps across their chest. And each of the Rangers helmets look like different vehicles.
The Red Ranger approached the Lux lucis Vis Rangers. "I'll ask again; what happened?"
Then they heard something ringing, and the Red Ranger pulled out some sort of cell phone, "Rangers, what happened? The Venjix's Attack Bot got destroyed before you got there." A female voice said.
"We saw and we found a bunch of wannabes pretending to be Rangers," the Red Ranger replied.
"Hey we're Rangers too!" Haley said as she walked to the Red Ranger but a laser blast forced her to stop. She looked up to see the Yellow Ranger with a Blaster in her hand.
The Red Ranger put the cell phone away and said, "Looks like Dr. K wants to speak to you," then the Ranger demorphed in front of them. They saw that he was black with a small afro in a black leather jacket with a red shirt underneath.
The Lux lucis Vis Rangers saw that the other Rangers we demorphed. Four more of them had leather jackets with shirts in the color as a Ranger. The Blue Ranger was average height for a man with short dark hair. The Yellow Ranger was average height for a woman with long blonde hair. The Green Ranger was a little bit shorter with brown slightly curly hair. The Black Ranger was taller and had dark brown hair. The Gold and Silver Rangers are in black jumpsuits with their Ranger colors were on the side. They noticed the resemblance with each other and guessed that they were twins.
"Follow us," the Red Ranger said as he walked past his team of Rangers.
"Why would Dr. K want to see 'em?" the Blue Ranger asked with a Scottish accent.
"I don't know, it's not my call," The Red Ranger replied.
Far into the Wastelands there was large factory/palace and within the woman that led the Grinders walked into a room where a few Grinders were standing on a elevated platforms that lead to a large cylinder with a red 'eye.'
"I'm surprised you decided to come back Tenaya 7." Tenaya turned to see a golden robot with large bolts on its body and a dark green robot with gears on its body and a red and white smoke stack on its back.
"Yeah, Master Venjix is furious at what you did," the other robot said.
"Don't look at me, blame it at that plant creature," Tenaya said.
"Do you know how hard it was to convince Master Venjix to let us use the design of my Power Drill Bot?" the gold robot asked.
"Silence!" a voice shouted out as the 'eye' on the cylinder started to glow brighter. "General Shifter, I do not care on that worthless Attack Bot!"
"But sir…" Shifter tried to say but was interpreted.
"Right now I care about where that creature came from!" Venjix shouted.
"Why are you interested in that creature?" the green robot asked.
"If that creature was able to destroy Grinders and an Attack Bot with ease, I need to know how the people of Corinth made this creature," Venjix explained, "Tenaya 7, you will return to Corinth and find where that creature came from. General Crunch and General Shifter you will stay and build another Power Drill Bot."
With the Lux lucis Vis Rangers, the present time Rangers were leading them to their base of operations. They Rangers were surprised that the future Rangers base looked like a large garage they saw a Nissan Sylvia '94, a blue Hummer, a black Pontiac GTO, and a dirt bike. "Welcome to our base. We call it the Garage," the Yellow Rangers said.
"Creative name," Jon said below a whisper.
"So these are the other Rangers?" The Lux lucis Vis Rangers saw an older black man dressed in a military uniform.
"Yep and we are…" the Gold Ranger started.
"…Going to get Dr.K," the Silver Ranger finished before they ran to a metal door the slide open.
"You'll probably want to get out of those ridicules outfits," the Red Ranger said.
The Lux lucis Vis Rangers looked at each other and nodded, they grabbed the Morphers on their belts and in a quick flash of their colors they were demorphed.
"Okay, that convinced me that they could be Rangers as well," the Green Rangers said.
"Ziggy, I bet you'll believe anyone to be a Ranger when they do flashy tricks," the Black Ranger said.
"Come on Dillon, they changed right in front of us," Ziggy said, "Summer, Flynn what do think about this?"
"I don't know," Flynn replied.
"Yeah, maybe we should wait for Dr. K," Summer said as she sat at a table, "Scott you should sit down as well."
Before Scott could replied the metal doors opened and the Gold and Silver Rangers walked out with a young girl that looked around the Lux lucis Vis Rangers' age. She walked to the Rangers, "You must be the ones imposing as Rangers," she said.
"We are not imposing as Rangers, we are actual Rangers," Tyler said, "From the past."
"I find that hard to believe," the girl said, "You don't know about the universal bio-electric field that is needed to create the hardware that the Rangers use. And for trying to impersonate my Ranger hardware, I'll let Colonel Truman decided your punishment."
"What! We are Rangers!" Emile shouted, "That bio-electric field you mentioned is the Morphing Grid. There are three monsters on the loose! If you don't believe us then go find the soldiers that were at the warehouse district!"
"Monsters? You mean…"
"…Like ugly and disgusting…"
"…Living monsters?" the twin Rangers asked excited as kids.
"Do they always do that?" Paige asked.
"Gem and Gemma do that a lot," Summer replied, "You get use to it."
"I'll check that out myself," Truman said as he started to leave the Garage, "You better keep a good eye on them."
"We will dad," Scott said.
"Hey if you want proof that we are Rangers, take my Power Coin and you can analyze it," Jon said as he took his Power Coin and tossed it at Dr. K.
"Fine, cause I know it is impossible to have a coin to hold the power for the Ranger technology," Dr. K said as she went back to her lab.
A half an hour later, the Rangers was spread around the Garage. Scott and Dillon were tuning up their cars; Flynn was making smoothies in the kitchen area. Gem and Gemma were writing in some books; Summer was playing pool with Chris with Paige, Jon, and Tyler watching.
As Emile sat down Ziggy sat right next to him. "Can I help you?" Emile asked.
"Look, you're a Green Ranger and so am I," Ziggy said, "I thought we could chat for a little bit."
"Like what?" Emile asked.
"Well how did become a Ranger?" Ziggy asked.
"We were summoned by our mentor, and gave us the power," Emile answered.
"In your opinion, what was the hardest fight you had?" Ziggy asked.
Emile let out a sigh before answering.
Flynn finished making his smoothie, pours a glass and went over to watch the pool game. "So who's winning?" he asked.
"Summer," Paige answered, "I'm surprised you guys are not treating us like prisoners."
"Well Scott is the only one doesn't trust ye," Flynn said, "To all of us you seem like well behave kids."
"Do you trust those so called Rangers?" Scott whispered to Dillon.
"To be honest, I don't care," Dillon replied, "Sooner or later this will blow over."
Then the door to the lab opened and Dr. K looked somewhat surprised as she walked to Jon, "How did you ever get these powers?" she asked.
Elsewhere in Corinth, a woman in a black dress was going up to a random soldier, "Excuse me but I was wondering about something," she said.
"What is it?" the soldier said
"What is the most powerful weapon that's here?" the woman asked.
"Isn't it obvious," the soldier replied, "The Power Rangers have the best weapons, how else can we fend off Venjix's attack bots."
"Thanks," the woman said a little annoyed as she started to walk away.
"Wait, maybe I can escort you home," the soldier suggested as he ran up to the woman.
"No thanks," she replied as she shoved the man to the ground. She continued to walk and when no one was around she ducked into an alleyway. "Power Rangers, Power Rangers! Why are there always Power Rangers where we go?"
"I know how you feel Scorpina," Goldar said as he and Freezing Rose appeared in front of her.
Scorpina changed back into her armor, "And it turns out they have the best weapons here," she said.
"You know I have an idea," Freezing Rose said, "Since the Rangers from our time is here, they don't have accesses to their Zords, and the Rangers that are here will not have a chance against us."
Scorpina smiled evilly and said, "I like the way you think."
"This is perfect, once the Rangers are gone from our time then no one can stop us," Goldar stated.
Back at the Garage, Tyler was trying to explain to Dr. K of what he knows of the Morphing Grid. "Our mentor created the Morphing Grid so that any Ranger in the universe can have access to their powers."
"I understand, but how could he do all this?" Dr. K asked.
"We don't know," Tyler answered.
Then the alarms in the Garage started to go off. "Now what?" Scott said with annoyance in his voice.
Dr. K went to the computer and a image of the city's map, "There's an attack right in the middle of the city."
"That's just a random location," Flynn said, "What are they trying to do by attacking that sector?"
Soon Colonel Truman appeared on the screen, "Rangers, it seems those kids are right 'bout the creature," he said, "I'm connecting you to the feed of the soldiers in the sector."
The screen was now showing soldiers getting beaten by Scorpina, Goldar, and Freezing Rose.
"Wow! A real monster!" Gem said with excitement.
"And it looks strong!" Gemma said.
"Then let's go," Scott said as his team were getting ready to leave.
"You're taking us with you," Tyler stated.
"No, you're staying here," Scott said as he got into his Nissan Sylvia '94, as Flynn got into the diver seat of his Hummer with Gem and Gemma riding, Dillon got into his Pontiac GTO with Ziggy riding with him, and Summer got on her dirt bike.
The Lux lucis Vis quickly stood in front of the exit of the Garage, "Get out of the way!" Scott shouted.
"No!" Haley shouted, "You'll need our help to fight Goldar and Scorpina!"
"We're Rangers; we all need to stick together!" Paige added.
"Fine!" Scott shouted, "Get in the cars."
The Lux lucis Vis Rangers divided up and got into different cars. Tyler, Chris, and Brittany got into Scott's car, Emile, Paige, and Jon squeezed into the backseat of Flynn's Hummer, and Summer handed Haley a spear helmet and she got on the bike behind Summer.
Then the vehicles roared out of the Garage and in a few minutes arrived where the monsters were at. The Rangers exit the vehicle to confront them. "So all the Rangers are here," Scorpina said.
"Yeah we're here," Ziggy said, "And I think you give up because they're fourteen of us and three of you."
"Then I'll even the odds," Scorpina said smugly as she pulled out the Putty Bomb she twisted it then pressed the button and tossed it. It exploded on impact on the ground and chucks of clay flew in multiple direction. Then the chunks started to grow and change into humanoid shapes and there were 30 Z-Putty Patrollers now. "You should count again."
"You had to say something," Dillon said as the Rangers got ready.
"I didn't know they'll answer like that," Ziggy replied.
"Let's just morph and take care of this," Tyler said.
"Agree," Scott answered as his team pulled out their engine cells and inserted them in their morphers, "Ready?"
"Ready!"
"RPM! Get in gear!"
"It's Morphin Time!"
In a bright flash, the Rangers were in their Power Suits. "Power Rangers RPM!"
"Power Rangers: Lux lucis Vis!"
"Charge!" Goldar shouted and the Putties followed the command.
"Aim for the emblems on their chest," Tyler said as his team stared fight the Putties.
"Don't worry; we can handle this," Scott said as he pulled out his Street Saber and strike down some of the Putties.
"Turbo Cannon!" Flynn shouted as he fired his weapon destroy a few Putties.
"Nitro Sword!" Summer and Dillon shouted as they inserted their Engine Cells into their blaster and extended the barrel and started to attack the Putties.
As they knocked back the Putties, then daggers flew though the air hit the emblems on the Putties destroying them. Haley caught the daggers, "Like Tyler said, aim for the Emblems," she said.
Ziggy was holding back the Putties until he saw Goldar in the air with his sword ready to strike, but Emile got in the way and deflected Goldar's sword with his axe. "Thanks man," Ziggy said.
"Hey we're Green Rangers," Emile said, "Now let's deal with Goldar." Ziggy nodded in agreement and the two charged at Goldar.
Gem and Gemma were using their Cloud Hatchet to fight Freezing Rose; the two were jumping around and attacking at any chance they got. "Stand still you pests!" it shouted.
Chris jumped into the air with his lance and strike Freezing Rose.
Jon and Brittany fired their weapons at Scorpina, but she did a back flip to dodge the attack. Then Paige lashed her whip at Scorpina, wrapping it around her arm. Tyler took this chance to attack Scorpina with his sword, but she blocked the attack and kick Tyler away. Then she pulled Paige's whip and knocked her to the ground. Scorpina's sword started to glow and she tossed it towards the Rangers.
"Get down!" Brittany shouted. The Rangers did what Brittany said as a glowing sword flew above them and accidently took out the remaining Putties.
"Thanks for destroying your own foot soldiers," Chris said.
"That won't matter to us," Goldar said as he pulled the Grow Grenade. He pulled the small ball of and slammed it to the ground, which caused a giant vent of steam that caused the villains to grow into giants, and making Scorpina turn into her monster form.
"Wow, did not expect to grow like that," Scott said.
"Well it looks like you guys are up," Tyler said.
"Wait, what?" Flynn said.
"We have no access to our Zords, so you guys need to take care of this," Tyler explained.
"Fine," Scott said, "Dr. K, we need our Zords!"
"Downloading Zords," Dr. K replied.
Soon large vehicles in many colors were driving in. The Lux lucis Vis Rangers saw that vehicles look like they're crossed with different animals. Red was a egale, Blue was a lion, Yellow was a bear, Green was a shark, Black was wolf, Gold was a Falcon, and Silver was a tiger. There were two more Zords; An orange crocodile Zord and a fly navy whale.
The Zords combine into three Megazord, red, blue, and yellow Zords formed the High Octane Megazord. The Eagle Racer was on top, with the Bear Crawler was below, and the Lion Hauler was the legs. Green, black, and orange Zords formed ValveMax Megazord and gold, silver and navy Zords formed the Mach Megazord. The Croc Carrier and Whale Zord were the main body for the Megazord while the other Zords were the arms.
"Time to meet your doom!" Goldar shouted as he took flight.
"We got him!" Gem said as the Mach Megazord took flight as well.
"Hey Ziggy, want to take the plant?" Dillon asked.
"Sure thing," Ziggy replied.
The ValveMax Megazord fired a blast with the Wolf Cruiser that got Freezing Rose's attention. "That just leaves me with you!" Scorpina screeched.
"Then get us ugly," Scott said as the Megazord pulled out its sword. Scorpina swung her sword at the Megazord. It easily deflected but Scorpina sneaked her tail around and zapped the Megazord.
The ValveMax Megazord was still firing at Freezing Rose, but the monster was at the Megazord.
"Ready Ziggy?" Dillon asked.
"Oh yeah!" Ziggy replied.
The Megazord used the Tail Spinner and jabbed it intoFreezing Rose, knocking it down. Without them paying attention, Freezing Rose's vine arms grew and wrapped around the Megazord's legs and tripped it.
In the air the Mach Megazord lunched the helicopter blades of the Falcon Zord at Goldar. But Goldar used his sword to block the attack. "You'll have to do better than that," Goldar taunted.
The Megazord aimed the Tiger Jet at Goldar and fired energy beams at him and hitting him. Goldar fired pellets at the Megazord making sparks fly and making the Megazord fall to the ground.
"Looks like we'll need some more power," Scott said. The arms of the High Octane were replaced with the Tail Spinner and Wolf Cruiser, the Croc Carrier are part of the Megazord's feet. Falcon Zord and Tiger Jet are now resting on the Megazord's shoulder and the Whale Zord became wings for the Megazord. Together they form the SkyRev Megazord.
"Combining your Zords will do nothing!" Scorpina screeched as she charged at the Megazord. The Tail Spinner started to spin around and hit Scorpina with it.
Then Megazord took flight and fired at Goldar knocking him out the sky.
"You'll never win!" Freezing Rose shouted.
The Rangers removed the Wheel Blasters, Gem and Gemma took their SkyShift Blazer, and inserted a special Engine Cell into their weapons, then locked onto Freezing Rose. "Fire!"
Then the Megazord's Zords individually charged at Freezing Rose and hitting it.
Freezing Rose screamed as it fell to the ground and exploded. Goldar and Scorpina saw what happened as the Megazord turned to them.
"Those who runaway!" Goldar started.
"Lives to fight another day!" Scorpina finished as the two villains disappeared.
On the ground, Tenaya was watching the fight, "Of course the Rangers would destroy it," she said.
"Tenaya 7, did you find out where that creature came from?" Venjix said over a small device one Tenaya's wrist.
"Nothing yet, turns out it was against the Rangers," Tenaya replied. "Then find out where it was from! I need to know if we are to destroy Corinth!"
"So you are against the Rangers?" Tenaya looked up to see Goldar and Scorpina. "What's it to you?" Tenaya asked.
"Well," Scorpina started, "We have a deal that should make your master happy."
TO BE COUNTUNED…
