"What is he doing there?" Connor asked as he came up behind them. He was calmer from his talk with Kat but still close to the edge.
"We don't know. He just showed up and threw Kim out of the way." Aisha said with a touch of anger that shocked Ethan.
He had never seen her get mad or even sound mad.
"I'm surprised that Kim didn't go after him." Kat said with a smile.
They all knew how the Pink Ranger reacted to things.
"I think Tommy being there is helping her more than anything else but Kira is looking in awe of them in front of her." Hayley said to them as she monitored the dimension. She wanted to make sure that no one else sneaked in.
"Yea she does." Connor said softy. He was in awe at Dr. O and Kim. They presented such a united force, they it looked like they were one.
XXXX
"How did you get here?" Kim asked as Tommy gripped her shoulder. He didn't want her going after Mesogogg right at this moment.
"This is my dimension now and you will not get out. He is my ranger." Mesogogg hissed at them.
"I am no one's ranger." Trent shouted from where he was still laying. He finally gained his feet but he stood there. His head was still fuzzy from fighting the good and evil.
"Trent, listen to me. You are better than this evil please fight it." Kira said to him.
He shook his head and laughed.
"I don't want to fight it." He said looking backing up to Mesogogg.
"Trent!" Kim screamed as Mesogogg laughed. The Black Ranger was firmly on his side now.
"Trent, you don't know what you are doing. Please listen to us." Kira pleaded again. She started feeling stronger than she had ever felt and she looked down to discover that he was glowing yellow.
XXXX
"Why is Kira glowing yellow?" Connor asked as Zack looked at him.
"She's not the only one glowing." He said which caused everyone to look at him and Ethan.
They were glowing their colors. Jason looked back at Tommy and Kim but they weren't glowing. He thought that it was weird that only some of the rangers were glowing their colors.
"Hayley, why are they glowing?" Rocky asked her.
"I'm not sure but I think that they are gaining more power." She told them as she looked up from the computer. She knew that Tommy had said something about this years ago with the Dino powers. She just didn't know what was causing it.
"Like they're upgrading their powers?" Kat asked her as she leaned over Billy's shoulder.
"That's exactly what's happening." Billy said to everyone. He was still uncertain why Tommy and Kim weren't glowing but he would find out. He looked up at his wife with a worried look.
Kat knew that look wasn't good but she didn't know how to help.
"So we are becoming more powerful?" Connor asked as he stared at his hand that was glowing. He felt the power flowing through him.
"In a sense yes, we will have to look into it further." Billy told them as they all backed up to give him, Hayley, and Ethan some space.
They turned back to see what was happening with Tommy, Kim, Kira, Trent, and Mesogogg.
XXXX
"Uh, Dr. O I think that something is wrong with my powers." Kira said behind them.
"Kira, there is nothing wrong with your powers. You are basically upgrading your powers. Don't worry." Tommy told her as Kim looked from Kira to Tommy. He seemed calm about the fact that Kira was glowing. It was almost like he had been waiting for it to happen.
"If that's the case then why are we not glowing?" Kim asked him while she kept her eye on Mesogogg and Trent.
"I don't know." He said as Trent charged them with his sword raised high. Tommy blocked it with his staff as Mesogogg released an army of tyrannodrones to take on Kim and Kira.
"Well then I guess that we need to get out of here to find out." Kim said as she flipped back away from Kira.
"You are not going anywhere." Mesogogg said from behind her.
She easily ducked away from him before she came back to attack him. She landed several punches before he knocked her back. Tommy came to her side then. He helped her up before having to block another attack from Trent.
They each continued to fight until Elsa and Zeltrax showed up.
XXXX
"We need to get in there." Connor said as Ethan nodded before standing up.
Jason and Rocky stood back as Connor and Ethan morphed and jumped on their bikes. They had to get to the invisiportal that Hayley had opened for them. It would take them directly there.
"You let them go." Trini said to Jason as she came up beside him.
"Yea because this is his time to shine, he is stepping out as his own ranger. He is their leader." Jason told her as everyone listened.
They smiled because they knew what Jason had said was true. This was Connor's time to shine as the Red Ranger. It was his time to lead his team and they wouldn't stand in his way.
"What about their powers?" Adam asked Hayley and Billy.
"I just don't know but it shouldn't be a problem though." Hayley told them as Billy nodded.
They all breathed a little easier because if Billy and Hayley thought that it wasn't that big a problem then they wouldn't worry about it.
XXXX
"Whoa this place is even worse than I thought." Ethan said as they landed in the dimension. He noticed a change in Connor that made him pause.
It was not bad just different. He seemed more in control and a leader. It was like Connor had changed before his eyes and become this person that he didn't recognized. They walked on until they came to the chamber where everyone was.
They saw Dr. O and Trent fighting while Kim fought Elsa. Kira was left to tackle the tyrannodrones but all three of them had to fight Mesogogg when he appeared next to them.
They didn't see Zeltrax but that didn't stop them from going in. Ethan ran over to Kira and helped her as Connor walked over to Dr. O and Trent. Dr. O was blocking attacks from both Trent and the now present Zeltrax. Connor grabbed Trent and threw him back to help Dr. O.
"Thanks Connor." Tommy said as he threw back Zeltrax so that he could stand.
"No problem, Dr. O." He said as he watched Trent stand up. He was more than ready to take him on.
"Well look who finally showed up, it's the little Red Ranger. You come to show Kira who the better fighter because if that's the case then I would hate to disappoint you." Trent taunted him before swinging his sword high.
"Oh I wouldn't be disappointed because I plan on winning." Connor said as he unsheathed his sword.
Their swords came together in a resounding clang. Kira turned and saw Connor and Trent fighting. This was not good but she didn't know what to do. They had to move past this themselves.
She had her own problems with fighting all these tyrannodrones. She turned back just in time to duck a punch from a tyrannodrone. She needed to get her head back on her fight. Mesogogg was back in the shadows watching the fight.
He knew that if he grabbed Kim he would have a fight on his hands. She was almost too much for him to handle and then he would have to deal with Dr. Oliver. Kira was the better choice. She was easier to access than Kimberly was as well. He stayed back until he could get a clear line. He saw his chance then took it.
"You will never defeat me." Connor said as he thrust Trent back.
"Yes I will." Trent screamed as he jumped up and ran back to him.
They lost their swords and were now punching and kicking. Tommy looked on and knew that Connor would have to get Trent back just Jason did him.
It was up to Connor as the Red Ranger to bring in the Black Ranger. He saw that Kim was fighting Elsa and winning of course. He knew that Kim could handle Elsa. He blocked another attack from Zeltrax when he saw out of the corner of his eye Mesogogg advancing on Kira.
He kicked Zeltrax down then was making his way to Kira when Mesogogg grabbed her.
"KIRA!" He screamed as he stopped at Kim's side. Zeltrax and Elsa were now standing next to Mesogogg.
"Stay back or she dies." Mesogogg said as Connor turned to see what was going on.
He saw that Mesogogg had Kira. While his mind was on Kira, Trent kicked him to his knees. Connor flipped around before gaining his feet. He used his super speed to kick Trent out of the way before he came up next to Dr. O, Kim, and Ethan. Tommy stopped him before he ran over to Kira.
"Dr. O?" He questioned as Tommy shook his head.
They had to think this through. Kira's life was on the line. He would not let Connor charge over there with Mesogogg holding her. They didn't know what he was capable of.
"You will stay back." Mesogogg said to them.
Trent came up behind them and brought them all to their knees with a blast from his sword. They all turned to see Trent standing there.
"CONNOR!" Kira screamed as everyone held their ears. She made her escape then as Trent shot another blast at Connor. She stepped in front of the blast and fell back into Connor's arms.
Connor didn't breathe until he saw her chest rise and fall. He held her closer to his body before looking up at Trent.
XXXX
"Kira!" Hayley screamed as she jumped up while everyone else started shouting.
Billy was the only one to stay calm and watch what was going on. He saw that the evil in Trent was disappearing. He also saw that Mesogogg, Elsa, and Zeltrax had vanished. He guessed that they didn't want to stick around and see what the damage was.
He just hoped that Kira was alright. It would be bad if she wasn't. He ignored the chaos the around him and started running scans of Kira to check her vitals. He had to be ready for her when they got back.
XXXX
"What have you done?" Connor said as he stood up with Kira still in his arms.
"She stepped in front of the blast. What was I supposed to do?" Trent said as he doubled over in pain.
Kim ran to his side and knelt down in front of him. She could tell that he was not doing good but the good thing was that the evil of the gem was disappearing.
"Get away from him. He did this to her." Connor growled at Kim which did not shock her or Tommy. He was upset and angry because of Kira but they did have a ranger down too.
"Connor, he is a ranger and needs help." Kim said as she looked up at him. She saw the tears in his eyes that she bet he wasn't even aware of. She knew that this was hard on him but Trent needed her help.
"Connor, we need to get Kira and Trent back to Billy and Hayley." Tommy said to him as he nodded. He knew not to question Dr. O.
"Tommy, he needs to be carried." Kim said to him.
He walked over to Trent and heaved him up on one shoulder and made their way back to the Command Center. It was going to be a long night with both Kira and Trent there.
XXXX
"Get the beds ready." Billy said to Hayley as she nodded.
"You might as well order some pizzas." Jason said to Trini as he nodded.
She got up and walked upstairs to order enough pizzas to feed several Red Rangers and everyone else. She smiled as she put the phone down.
The boy on the phone asked if she was sure that she needed that many pizzas. She was brought back to reality when she heard the commotion downstairs. It was going to be a long night.

Okay so what did everyone think? Please let me know.
