Chapter 82: Prom Night
It was a big night for the senior class of Boardman High. Everyone was getting ready for the big night. The girls were getting their dresses and makeup on while the boys got the tuxedos, that they rented, on. And the families of the teens rented limos for their children and friends.
When it was finally time, the students arrived at hall where prom was to be at. Group by group, teens arrived to the banquet hoping for the best night of their lives. Even the Rangers were excited for the night. "Can't believe this is the night," Brittany said.
"I know," Julian agreed "Too Bad Z is going to miss this."
"His lost," Jon added.
"Well Z told me that he is using this time to keep an eye out for any Psychos," Aref told them.
"Make sense," Emile said, "After all they did attack on the skip day."
Soon they met up with the other Rangers, "You guys ready?" Tyler asked.
"Of course," Chris said as the friends went to join the other student to prom.
At the Command Center, Z was scanning the area for anything that could be sent be Zedd or Rita. "Z you should rest," Alpha suggested.
"Sorry Alpha," Z turned to the robot, "But I rather make sure nothing ruins this night."
"Z, do you think that worrying like this will cause too much stress?" Dimitria said.
"I know," Z replied, "But I'm not doing it for my friend. I'm doing it for all the students. I don't want this special night to be ruined because of the Power Rangers." Z took a seat and continued, "Besides, I bet Zedd and Rita are already planning something."
On the moon, Rita saw the high school students gathering for prom. "You got to be kidding! Those brats are spending lot of money for some stupid dance!" she shrieked.
"What are you complaining about this time?" Zedd asked as he stood up from his throne.
"I'm just disgusted at these teens thinking that their high school lovers will their forever! They are too caught in their little fantasy of the perfect future that will never happen!"
"If you don't like proms, then I'll help you ruin their prom," Zedd said.
"I am already preparing for this," Psycho Orange said as she walked into the throne room.
"What do you have planned?" Zedd asked.
"With Finster's help, we are creating a device that will make me look like Paige and I will ruin their prom leaving the blame to the Orange Ranger."
"But wouldn't the Rangers detect you?" Rita asked.
"With the device, not even the Rangers can figure out which Paige is real or a Psycho," Orange explained.
The villainous couple gave and evil chuckle, "A perfect plan," Zedd said, "If the Orange Ranger is blamed for ruining their special night, it can ruin her future."
In a nearby room, the three generals were playing some poker with some aliens. "So why does Rita hate when humans have their proms?" Goldar asked Rito.
"Eh, it was something about her not being a prom queen," Rito replied, "Okay I bet 50 credits!"
In the halls of the palace, Psycho Orange was getting ready to go to Earth, when someone pulled on her arm. She looked up to see, Psycho Green. "What do you want?" she asked.
"You should not go to Earth," he replied.
"Why, don't you trust me?" Orange asked.
"It's not that," Psycho Green stated, "I don't trust Psycho White."
"Don't worry about me, I'll make sure the Rangers fall this time," Orange said as she removed Psycho Green's grip.
Back at the prom, Psycho Orange arrived disguised as Paige. She gave and evil smile as she blends in the crowd of students. All the students were enjoying themselves, and then the disguised Psycho poured one of the drinks on a girl's dress. "Oops, sorry. At least the stain will improve your dress," the Psycho said with sarcasm.
On the other side, Paige was standing with a nervous Chris. "Still nervous of the whole prom king thing?" she asked.
"Does it show?" Chris asked.
"Don't worry Chris," Paige assured her friend, "You are a shoe in for prom king."
"Yeah Chris," Emile started as he appeared next to the two, "Just be calm and be cool."
On the other side of the room, Tyler spotted the fake Paige. "Hey Paige having fun?"
The Psycho in disguised didn't say anything , she grabbed a knife and made a large cut on his jacket.
"What was that for?" Tyler demanded as he reached for Paige.
Psycho Orange grabbed Tyler and flipped him over on top of a table. making everyone stop and turn to the commotion.
A lot of the students were puzzled and a few guys tried to approached Paige, but she tossed or beat up the guys. Once she was done, she ran though the crowds disappearing from sight.
Once the fake Paige was gone, the real Paige's cell phone started to ring. She ducked out of the way to answer it. "Hey, this might be a bad time to call," she said.
"I would guess that," Z replied over the phone.
"Z?" Paige said, "How did you get this number?"
"I'm in the Command Center," Z replied, "Anyway, I'm calling about what I saw."
"You mean that double of mine?" Paige said.
"Yeah, I don't know what is going on, but try to keep her in sight and Ninjor and I will be there as fast as we can."
Paige hung up her phone and went to look for the copycat. Soon someone ran into her and when she looked up to see her doppelganger. "You," she started as she grabbed the double, "Who are you and what are you trying to do?!"
The evil double smiled and started to reply, "Who else is it Orange Ranger?"
"Psycho Orange? But why do this?" Paige asked.
"I thought it will be best to discredit your human form," Psycho Orange stared to explain, "You are too kind, by looking like you and destroying the biggest event for your senior class everyone will hate you."
"You won't get away with this," Paige told the Psycho.
"Oh I will," the Psycho said as she kicked Paige to the wall. Before the Psycho could get away, Paige tackled the Orange Psycho. Soon a pair of hands grabbed the two and they saw it was Ninjor.
"Enough ladies," Ninjor said as he started to drag the two girls back to the rest of the prom, where students were surprised to see two Pagies.
"Wow this is a dilemma," Z said as he dropped down from the ceiling, "Which one is the real Paige."
"I'm the real Paige!" the two shouted.
"Here's an idea," Z said as he held out his hand and a small manifestation of the Dark Power appeared in his hand. Everyone watch silently, waiting for something to happen. "Okay, neither of you have an Empty Jewel," Z said as he retreated his hand, "Now what?"
Then they heard a cell phone ringing, and Paige pulled out her cell phone. "That has to be Paige," Brittany announced with her phone in her hand, "Even if the person was a doppelganger, there is no way the fake would have Paige's phone."
"Damn, it is always the smallest detail," Psycho Orange said before she kicked Ninjor, making him lose his grip on her, "Fine, might as well completely ruin your prom night." With the snap of her figures, Demon Tengas appeared in the room, causing the students to panic.
In the confusion, the rangers were able to get out of sight long enough to summon their Ninjetti powers. At the same time, Psycho Orange, who still looked like Paige, was trying to make her escape. In the parking lot, Paige tackled the Psycho. "Sorry, but you won't get away!"
The Psycho stood back up with an evil smile on her face, "Fine, let's fight Orange Ranger," she said as she took a round device and crushed it. Once the device was destroyed, Psycho Orange was back to her original form, with the Psycho Claws ready, "Come!"
Paige pulled out her morpher, "It's Morphin Time!"
Paige was standing in the middle of the forest in her Ninjetti outfit and a panther ran past her. Paige started to chase the panther as her Power Suit appeared on her body and the panther glowed orange and became her helmet. She stopped and posed. "Panther!"
Paige got her Panther Claws ready and the two got ready to fight. Paige made the first move by charging at the Psycho and slashing her with her claws. Paige was surprised to see that there wasn't that much damage to the Psycho. "Was that meant to hurt?" she mocked as she hit Paige with her claws.
Paige used a car to give herself a push to fly at Psycho Orange, who easily deflected Paige's claws and made her hit another car.
Paige then pulled out her blaster and fired at the Psycho. "What are you doing?" Psycho Orange asked as she deflected the shots, "Nothing you do will hurt me."
Then Paige noticed something on the Psycho Claws, there were small grey crystal balls on her claws. 'Empty Jewels? She must of used them to absorb and deflect my weapons that need Light Power.'
Paige got back up and got her Spirit Lance ready. "Like that oversized metal toothpick will do anything to me!" the Psycho shouted.
Paige started to swing her lance at the evil Ranger. The Psycho was using her claws to block the attack, but unknown to her, Paige was really aiming for the Empty Jewels. With great force Paige was able to destroy the Emptied Jewels. "What have you done!?" she shouted.
"I'm getting ready to finish this!" Paige shouted as she jumped into the air and dived at Psycho Orange, "Panther's Pounce!" Orange energy surrounded her in shape of a panther and hit Psycho Orange, knocking her down.
"You will pay for this!" the damaged Psycho shouted as she struggled to get up. But she was frozen in place by shadows binding her.
Paige turned to see her team, morphed, with Ninjor approaching her. "Hey Paige, ready to finish this?" Tyler asked.
"Oh yeah, let's end this," Paige replied as the Rangers' fists started to glow in their colors and then they did a straight punch to fire beams of light at the Orange Psycho, only to have the beams knock her back down.
"I will not let it end like this," Psycho Orange said as orange electricity surged from her body, "I will beat you all!"
Then Psycho Orange grew and transformed into her monster form. In her monster form, she had a black body with orange lightning bolts coming out of the sides of her body and lightning bolt coming out of her head making it look like hair.
"By the power of the Eternal Light, we summon our Spirit Zords!"
The Rangers extended their arms to the sky and eight balls of light in the Rangers' color flew into the sky until there was a bright flash and the Spirit Zords were flying to the Earth.
"Come Ark, Ship of Darkness!"
Ark flew in from space.
The Rangers then teleported to their cockpits and the Zords got into formation.
The Panther Zord's legs and tail fold into it body and an extension emerge from behind and from the left leg.
The Shark Zord lost its tail fin and an extension like the Panther Zord emerge where the tail was and formed the right leg.
The Bear Zord stood on its hind legs as the front legs folded into the body and the head was folded forward as the hind legs were raised up to the same level as the head. The legs then attached to the bottom of the Bear Zord and completed most of the Megazord.
The Wolf Zord's legs and tail folded up and became the left arm with the wolf's head as the hand for the arm.
The arms and legs of the Ape Zord was folded into the Zord's body and then the Zord's head folded into its body and was replaced by a hand. And the two Zord attached to the side of the Bear Zord.
Finally the Crane Zord flew and folded its wings and head to form the Megazord's head.
Then the Megazord jumped into the air and the Falcon Zord attached to the back forming the wings.
"Spirit Megazord Online!" The Rangers shouted.
"Zords combine!" Z inserted the Shadow Saber into the slot.
The talons of the Owl Zord grabbed Ark and with a quick flip the two Zord combined into a new Megazord that looked like a warrior, with the Owl Zord's wings on its back, a long sword in one hand and a large shield in the other.
"Owl Megazord online!"
Ninjor used his powers to grow into a giant, and then changed into his Battle Mode.
"Let's see you handle this!" Psycho Orange shouted as a wave of orange electricity at the three giants.
"Ok, this Psycho has control of electricity," Emile pointed out, "We need to divert the electricity."
"I got that," Z said, "Lightning Sword!"
The Psycho charged up another electrical attack and fired another wave. The Owl Megazord got in front to deflect the attack, but the attack was too strong.
"Okay, new plan," Z said.
"I got this!" Ninjor shouted as took his sword and started to attack the Psycho Monster.
Orange used her electricity to deflect Ninjor's blade. Then the Spirit Megazord tried to do a spinning kick with the Shark Zord in front but the Psycho was easily dodging the attack.
"Is that all your Zords got!?" Psycho Orange shouted.
"We still got a few more Zords left!" Paige shouted.
"I summon Tor!" Z shouted and Tor, the Shuttlezord, arrived on the battle field. The Owl Megazord got back up and tossed its sword and shield high into the air, "Tor activate Warrior Mode!"
Tor stood up and opened up where the Owl Megazord landed inside. Tor's cannons aimed at Psycho Orange. "Really your next Zord is a turtle!" Psycho Orange shouted.
"Don't count it out just yet," Ninjor shouted, "You don't know the power it possesses."
"Then I'll destroy it!" the monster shouted.
"I won't let you!" Ninjor shouted as he fired a ball of energy at the Psycho, knocking her down.
"Fire!" Z shouted as Tor fired energy beams hit Psycho Orange.
Then the Spirit Megazord grabbed the Lightning Sword and shield. "Charging the Lightning Sword!" Tyler shouted as the Sword started to charge up. Then the Spirit Megazord slashed the sword hitting Psycho Orange.
"Impossible! I was defeated by a sword with the power of lightning!" Psycho Orange shouted as she fell forward and exploded and orange energy flew straight into space.
Later that night, it took a while, but the prom was back on and they making the announcement for prom king and queen. "What a crazy night, "Haley said.
"I know, I hope those Psychos learn not to try something like that again," Chris said. Then there was an applause.
"Umm, Chris," Paige started, "You were just called for prom king."
Chris was surprised at this and quickly walked over to the stage. "Well guys," Z said as he appeared in his Ninjetti outfit, "I think everything will be fine for the rest of the night. Enjoy yourselves. Z then teleported out of there leaving the others to their prom.
On the moon, Psycho White looked at his amulet to see a orange gem added to it. "Psycho White!" Zedd shouted as he entered the Psychos' chamber, "What's going on, you Psychos are dropping like flies!"
"I assure you Zedd, in the end the Power Rangers will be destroyed," Psycho White replied.
"You better find a way or else," Zedd threaten before he left.
"In the end, nothing will stop me," Psycho White whispered to himself.
