Their Children

Chapter 25: Divided We Fall

.

OOOOO

...

"Phaedra will arrive soon. She will give them the medical attention that they need." The childlike voice, told the adults in the room.

The former rangers all stared at Zordon in amazement. They were speechless. They couldn't be seeing what they thought they were. Jason stepped forward, towards their pubescent mentor. "I, I can't believe it. Zordon… how is this even possible?" The first red ranger asked.

"Yeah. We were told of your demise." Tommy said, standing beside his 'bro'. "We felt your death."

"Zordon," Kat began, "what… happened to you?"

Before she knew it, Kim could feel the tears in her eyes. "We thought you were gone."

"I know that this comes as a surprise to all of you," Zordon began.

"More like a shock." Aisha muttered under her breath.

"…but," Zordon continued, "you will soon see that there is a logical explanation for everything."

"Logical? You're a kid!" Rocky exclaimed.

"Yes Rocky," Zordon agreed with a nod, "perceptive as ever, I see." He replied with a small smile and twinkle in his eye.

Rocky's eyed widened at the remark, as his friends all hid small grins of their own. "A joke? Zordon just made a joke." He said in a deadpan.

"It's been known to happen." Zordon stated.

Rocky faced his friends' grinning faces. "Can he do that?"

Jason smirked at him, "I think he just did, Rocko." And with that said, the former rangers shared a light chuckle despite their dire circumstances.

Suddenly, the doors they entered through were thrust open and a dark haired lady stepped through followed by Omega. Phaedra walked in and immediately halted at the sight. She had a slight frown on her face, due to the unauthorized transport of civilians. But after surveying the area, her frown deepened into one of worry. "What has happened?" She asked, immediately running to the closest unconscious figure, Tanya. Phaedra took out a device and used it to scan over Tanya's body. She glanced at the 3 kids. "Are the children only sleeping?" She asked.

Kat nodded her head, "Yes. How did you know?"

"It's a defense mechanism of the C-Deck; to render intruders unconscious. Out of all of you, they are the only three who have never held the power." Phaedra said as she looked over the reading on her device. She then looked at Adam, "She's fine. She just needs rest." She then stood up and moved over to Cassie. Her frown deepened as she looked over the results that were piling up on the scanner. "What happened to her?" She asked calmly, as she set the device down and began physically looking over Cassie's body.

"Goons." Zack started, fighting the sob in his throat. "They attacked them at the house."

Phaedra was surprised by what he said, though she did not show. She did, however, share a look with Zordon. She would be sharing words with him soon. But now… "I need to get her to the med bay. Omega!" She called out.

"Yes, Phaedra?" The bot hobbled over to the brunette.

"Get the stretcher." She ordered, and then without waiting for a reply, turned attention back towards Tanya, and then Zack. "Most of her injuries appear to be minor. I know it looks bad, but it's only because there are so many abrasions. But I assure you they are superficial." Phaedra eyed the stretcher that was placed beside Cassie. "However, I've noticed three major issues picked up on the scanner. There appears to be some internal damage." She nodded to the three men closest to her; Billy, Jason, and Rocky.

Zack couldn't believe what he was hearing. "Does that mean that she might… ?"

Phaedra was quick to halt his thinking. "It's too early to assume anything. Let's get her to the medical bay, and we'll take it from there." She then had the men position two on each side of Cassie, with she herself supporting the head. "On three… one… two… three…" At that command, they lifted Cassie and placed her onto the stretcher. The men, Zack and Jason on one side and Billy, and Rocky on the other, followed Phaedra off of the C-Deck.

Adam lifted a still unconscious Tanya into his arms. "I guess, we should follow as well." He commented.

Zordon nodded his head. "That would be wise." He told Adam. He then looked at the others. "The children, as well, should be monitored."

Taking the hint Tommy bent down to pick up Andy; after all, he was the heaviest of the three. He looked at Aisha, Kim, Trini, and Kat. "Will you be able to get the girls?"

"We're not wimps, Tommy." Kim stated.

Kat walked over to Katie. "Kim's right. We're mothers. We've carrying children of all sizes for years." She said in her still strong accent. She lifted a sleeping Katie into her arms. "Whoa." She shifted a little; needing to adjust to the weight. "Kids sure do grow up fast." Kat remarked in jest.

Tommy just grinned. He adjusted Andy to one arm and reached out towards Kat. "Jessie's the smallest. Here, I'll take Katie too."

"No, I've got it Tommy." Kat stubbornly told him.

"Her feet is practically dragging on the ground." He responded deadpanned.

"Girl just hand her over. If Tommy wants to prove he's some macho-man. Who are we to stop him?" Aisha said, shrugging her shoulders. Tommy made a not so mature face at her. She moved near Jessica. "Then again. There are four of us girls. Two of us can carry one." She bent down and gripped Jessica under the arms. "Wanna grab her legs Kim?" Aisha asked her friend.

"Sounds like a plan." Kim said, grabbing Jessica's legs. And then, bending at the knees. They stood up together. "Piece of cake."

Trini smiled at her two friends, and then took a step closer to Kat. She held out her arms as Kat lowered Katie's back into Trini's arms. Now with Katie's upper body in Trini's arms and her lower body in Kat's, they were ready to move. "Alright, we're all set Tommy. Lead the way." Trini said with a smile.

Tommy nodded his head in appreciation. "Okay ladies. Follow me. Hopefully, they didn't get too far."

"It looks like Omega is waiting on us. Perhaps he is to show us the way." Kat stated.

They moved to the double doors as Omega opened them. "Follow me rangers' parents!" And once they were all out of the C-Deck, Omega moved down the hall, with the group following every step of the way.

.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

.

Everything around him appeared blurry as he flew through the halls. Then suddenly, his sight cleared and his feet were planted on solid ground. "Whoa." He said, trying to find his balance. He then looked at his friend. "Yeah Tommy, how's about we never do that again."

White surveyed their surroundings. The hallway they were in was vacant. He let out a deep sigh. "Sorry man. I had to get us out of there quick." He looked around the corner to see that the hallway was vacant as well. "I can't believe they wouldn't listen."

Blue turned his head to the side. "I never thought that they would." He said firmly.

White looked at his friend. "What you did to the computers; was that all planned?" He asked, not liking being lift out of the loop. "How did you disable them?"

"I'm a computer whiz Tommy. It's what I do." Blue shrugged, as though it were nothing.

"Well, yeah…" White nodded his head in agreement. "But, I saw you insert something into the missile computer."

Blue sighed. "It was a chip with a virus on it."

He had White's full attention now. Something didn't add up. "And you just happened to have it on you?" He asked confused. "Where'd you get it from anyway?"

"Reidyn gave it to me." Blue responded, and then continued before his friend could interrupt. "Once it was decided where everyone was headed, she slipped the chip into my hand and told me what to do through a mental link."

"But why keep it a secret? Why keep it from me?" White asked confused and slightly upset as he turned from Blue. It felt as though they didn't have any faith in him.

"No one wanted it to come to this. She… they hoped that you'd be able to persuade them." Blue stepped closer to White and put a hand on his shoulder. "When I saw that they would not be, I acted. Unfortunately, now we look like foes, but we really didn't have the time. I hope you see that Tommy."

White nodded his head, and turned back to his friend. "I do. And you made the right choice Conner." He said when suddenly red lights started flashing in the passageways and a loud booming sound went off. "I think we've out stayed our welcome." He said while looking down the halls. "Let's get back to the others."

Blue nodded in agreement and they stood in teleportation stance and prepared themselves for the beam of light. "It's not working. I guess we have to contact Omega first."

Turning on his communicator, White called out for aide. "Hawk to the C-Deck. … Hawk to C-Deck. … Omega do you read?..." He looked at Blue. "There must be something jamming our signal."

Blue nodded his head. "Probably why we can't teleport." He let out a sigh. "I guess we have to find a way out."

White felt Blue's frustration. They needed to get to the battle field and quick. "I was worried you'd say that." He glanced back down the hall. "Now, to find a way out of here."

"Actually, I might have the solution to that. When I synced into the computer, I accessed the blueprints on the facility." Blue informed.

"You had time to do that?" White asked in disbelief.

"Well… I guess being morphed makes us work faster than we normally would. I kind of did it simultaneously." Blue admitted. "I wanted to know where the missile was. You know, in case it needed a manual shut down."

White nodded his head. "Makes sense. Well, then my man… where to?"

Blue concentrated and pulled up the information. He soon saw a layout of the facility on his visor. It sat at the upper left corner of his vision. He skimmed it over, before deciding on a path. "This way." He said, before turning down the hall to their right. White, followed after.

It took them nearly three minutes to get from the center of the mountain and back to the edge to an exit. Although the sirens were blaring and men were looking for them, they were lucky enough to have gotten this far without being spotted again. Blue immediately went to the door and pulled at the lever.

The two rangers stepped out into the fresh air. It was not nearly as bright as it had been earlier in the day. The sky was turning pinkish hues. "Night will be falling soon." Commented White. "I'd really like to have this wrapped up before then." He said placing his fist over his chest.

"Well then, let's go end this." Blue said, following White's motion. Soon two lights shot up from where they once stood.

..

OOOOOOOOOOOOO

..

Green crashes into the Earth not so delicately. In an instant, Black stands over her, offering her a hand. "Are you alright Sami?"

She grabbed his hand and allowed him to pull her onto her feet. "Well, I've had better landings." She answers, dusting herself off. She then looked up into the sky, Black following her gaze. "Looks like the Calvary has arrived."

"It's about time." Black muttered, as he witness his two friends landing beside them. "Hello my friends, welcome to chaos." He said, gesturing to the mass of goons everywhere.

Blue glanced around them. "Yeah, looks like we got here just in time. Wouldn't you say Tommy?"

"Yes Connor. It would seem that they just can't do anything without us." White answered.

"Watch it little brother, I'm in no mood for jokes." Green stated. It was then, that White and Blue noticed just how scorched her uniform was.

"What happened to you?" White asked his sister in complete surprise.

Black just pointed behind them. "That happened." He answered for Green.

Both White and Blue turned around to see Maura battling with the yellow ranger. She was shooting some sort of energy blast from her wand. Luckily, Olivia's gift happens to be invisibility, otherwise she'd probably be just as scorched as Sami. "We better go help her." Blue suggested.

"Already on it!" Green yelled, as she flew back into the fray.

"I think I'll go help. My telekinesis may be of use against Maura." Blue stated before following the green ranger.

"Alright Marcus, where's the best place to start?" White asked his friend.

Black gripped his mace. "Well anywhere really. But if I were you, I'd call on your weapon first."

White nodded his head. "Good idea." He said, while calling on his Power Sword. As the weapon materialized, White surveyed the area. It was then that he noticed Red battling Raptor, and Pink fighting a group of Goons. "We're too divided."

Black nodded his head in agreement. "Yeah, but Raptor and Maura are proving to be very difficult opponents. They are purposely keeping us that way."

"You're right." He responded as he glanced from Maura to Raptor and then to the Goons. "We're going to need to take one of them out. Now."

"Alright." Black raised his mace ready for action. "Which one?"

White watched Red fighting against Raptor. He was holding his own pretty well. "We'll take out the witch. She's already going against three rangers. So she's probably stronger than Raptor. Still, I doubt she can hold up against five of us." He then glanced at Pink. He frowned a little beneath his helmet, as he noticed her stumble after completing a roundhouse kick. "Let's make this quick." He said before speeding to his sister and the others.

Black nodded his head. "Aye, aye Captain." He muttered and ran to catch up.

..

oooooooo

..

"What's the matter Red Ranger, getting tired?" Raptor growled in animosity. He then swung his sword down in an attempt to decapitate the ranger.

Red rolled out of the way just in the nick of time, and onto his feet. "Actually lava breath, I'm just getting warmed up." He said as he fists lit in flames.

"What a coincidence, so am I." Raptor growled, before opening his jaws and letting out a fierce blaze.

'That's what I was counting on.' Red thought to himself as he quickly rolled beneath the fire and towards Raptor. The creature was so busy with his attack that he didn't see Red halt right under his nose; quite literally. 'Too easy.' Red thought as he sent a fiery fist to Raptor's chin in a hot uppercut.

Raptor flew off of the ground and careened backwards into a group of Goons. Upon landing, he let out a big breath of smoke.

"Wow gater-face, I always knew you were full of hot air." Red said as he casually walked up to the pile of idiots. That's when he noticed Pink standing near the pile.

"Well, you just made my job a lot easier. Thanks!" Said Pink as she made her way to him. "But I must say, you were cutting it a little close there."

"Yeah, sorry Tiff, didn't see you there." Was his reply.

"Don't sweat it." Pink stood next to Red with a hand on her hip and the other grasping a power fan. "With the amount of fun you seem to be having, I'm not surprised."

"What, that? Naw, it's all just work to me." Red protested.

She play punched him in the shoulder. "No, you don't fool me mister. You clearly enjoyed that just now."

Red grabbed her tiny fist. "I guess there's just no fooling you is there."

Pink pointed to her head. "Inner sight and all." And then they both shared a good laugh. Unfortunately it was short lived. Through their playful banter, they had not noticed themselves being surrounded by goons, and most importantly, Raptor.

"Hate to break up this little giggle fest, but we have a fight needing finished Red Ranger." Came the angry snarl of Raptor, who was not looking to well. The red and pink ranger immediately fell into a fighting stance. "Take care of the pink one, however, the red one is MINE!" He growled his command.

As if on cue, the Goons all rushed towards Pink, but Red would not leave her side. Pink appraised the goons. "Go ahead Alex. I can take care of these things." She told him, sounding slightly out of breath.

Red didn't feel right leaving her on her own. He didn't know why, but he felt that something was seriously wrong with his friend. "No Tiff, we'll fight them together. And if Croc wants to join the party, we'll take care of him too. Together."

Pink couldn't help but feel warm inside. She appreciated his concern. "Together." She repeated.

"Back to back!" Red shouted as they stood back to back right before they were swarmed by goons.

..

OOOOOOO

..

Yellow became visible once more as she called on her Power Whips. It's a pity she can't stay invisible when using them. She snapped one into the direction of Maura, while simultaneously side-stepping an energy blast. Unfortunately Maura was able to deflect the attack. Luckily for the rangers, she landed directly in Green's line of attack. Maura was thrown back by the blow delivered to her chest.

"Good shot Sami." Yellow complimented.

Green nodded. "Thanks for the assist Livvy." They both started to walk towards the fallen sorceress when they heard a voice from behind them.

"Be careful. It was a good blow, but something tells me she won't be down for long." They turned to see the Blue Ranger standing behind them, gripping his Power Axe tightly.

Before they could comment, a brush of wind blew past them leaving a White Ranger in its wake. He was soon followed by the Black Ranger. "What'd we miss?" Asked Black, Power Mace resting on his shoulder.

"Oh not much, just a crazy, angry, energy blast throwing witch, who Sami so wonderfully just sent flying onto her evil butt." Livvy answered lightly.

"Sad I missed that." Black stated. Then he noticed the witch starting to rise. "Though it doesn't look like she's down for the count just yet." They all turned to see exactly what he was talking about.

"Listen guys. We need to get Maura out of commission ASAP." White told them. They all turned their attention back to him. "First things first, we need to get that wand out of her hands. Sami you fly above her to get her attention."

Green nodded her head.

White continued. "She's going to prepare to attack. This is where you come in Livvy. You'll need to go invisible and come in behind her."

"Yeah, then I'll sonic boom her to next week." Yellow said excited.

"Actually, I was thinking of a more subtle approach." White said. "We need you to get the wand out of her hand with the use of your Power Whip, just as she aims it towards Sami."

Yellow nodded her head. "Gotcha."

"Once we have her defenseless, Marcus you and Connor ambush her. Strike her with the Power Mace and Power Axe together." White told them as they all watched as Maura started to regain her senses as she became more aware of her surroundings.

"A double whammy." Black uttered. "I like it."

"You think that's going to put her down?" Blue asked.

White was silent for a moment before speaking. "Yes. But just in case that's not enough, I'm going to step in after your attack and get her from behind." He believed that such an attack could definitely put her out for a while. "I'm authorizing you to go full force guys."

"What if we kill her?" Yellow asked. This caught everyone off guard. They were watching the witch. She was clearly lucid now. It was time to act.

"She's a powerful alien witch. I'm confident it would take a lot more to end her." White answered. "Still, it's a risk we'll have to take." He told them solemnly. "Sami, take to the sky."

OOOOO

Maura stood up on shaky legs. 'Stupid ranger brats. They'll pay for this.' She thought as she pushed useless goons out of her way. "Go and do something useful!" She screamed at them, and blasted one with her wand. Her gaze soon fell onto the five rangers before her. They were all huddled together. She smirked, "Good, I can take 'em out in one shot." Her grin was full of darkness. However, just as quickly as it came, if fell as she witnessed the green ranger shoot up high into the sky. "Running away now are we, I don't think so. I'll take care of you first little birdie." She hissed aloud as she gripped her wand.

However, before she could make a move she watched as Green pulled out her Power Staff.

Green looked down on Maura. 'Good, she's already eyeing me. Now I just gotta keep her attention.' With that thought Green pulled out her staff. 'Now what's a good distraction?' She thought before an idea popped into her head. She grinned from beneath her helmet. She held out her Power Staff and started spinning it clockwise. It continued to pick up speed as she spun it faster and faster to the point where it looked like a circular disk in front of her.

Maura watched the green ranger spinning her staff. 'What's she up to?' She wondered, before she started to feel a forceful wind. 'What the-' She could not complete the thought as the wind picked up. Maura was having difficulty staying on her feet. "A wind tunnel!" She cried in outrage. She refused to be defeated by such an amateur move. Gripping her wand even tighter, she used all of her strength to raise it and point it towards the annoying brat in the sky. Once she aimed with her wand hand outstretched, she grinned. "I've got you little bird."

OOOOO

Yellow run up behind Maura. She stayed a decent distance; close enough to disarm her, but also far enough away to be out of the line of fire when the boys strike. She waited patiently for the witch to become completely consumed in the green ranger's attack. Once she knew that Maura's undivided attention was elsewhere, she called on one Power Whip. This of course causing her to become visible once more. She watched closely as Maura started to reach out towards her friend. 'Alright Livvy, you've got one shot.' She thought before flinging her arm back and snapping the whip forward.

There was a loud CRACK as the sorceress found herself disarmed. "Aahh!" Maura screamed at the pain inflicted on her hand as the whip left a deep gash. She cradled her hand and looked to the direction the attack spawned from. "You!" She hollered at the Yellow Ranger. But then the yellow ranger disappeared once more. Maura then looked around for her wand.

"Looking for this?" Asked a voice high up in the air. Green flew high above the ground, holding onto the wand she caught.

"Give that back Power Brat!" Maura snarled at her in rage.

"Believe me, getting this back is the least of your concerns." Was Green's reply.

Before Maura could inquire as to what she meant, her vision was immediately blocked by two blurs of Black and Blue as she felt a force slamming into her front, leaving a scorching pain in its wake. She felt herself being knocked back by the force, and she knew tomorrow she'd have bruises there the exact colors of her attackers. If she lived to see tomorrow that is. She waited for what felt like forever for her back to meet hard ground, so she tried to turn to see her imminent impact. What she saw instead caught her by surprise. "Wha-" She groaned.

White sped to a place behind Maura; she was nearing him. He readied his Power Sword as he noticed her head turning and the widening of her fearful eyes. Just as she was in reach he swung his sword, across her back. The blast of the impact pushed her right into the ground, leaving a slight crater. White looked down at the alien woman. He felt his four friends nearing him. He looked up into their faces. "She's out."

"I'd say." Yellow commented. "Is she alive?" She asked.

Blue moved into the crater. He looked over her, and then back up to his friends. "I think so. Her anatomy is different from ours, but she's breathing and that's a common function to our own."

"Alright, I guess we'll take care of Killer Croc next." Marcus said. They nodded in unison.

Green then gestured to Blue. "Connor, get away from her!"

Without questioning his friend Blue moved away from the fallen figure. Once he was beside his friends, he turned to see what they saw. Maura's form was glowing until she was so bright they had to turn away from her form. Once the light was gone, so was she.

"Okay, what was that?" Asked Green.

"I don't know." White asked in equal confusion. "But we need to get back to Tiffany and Alex." He said before turning away from the crater, and running back into the fray. The others followed.

..

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

..

Pink sent her Power Fans through about twenty Goons. Taking advantage of her weaponless state, she flipped over Red's back and delivered a swift kick to the two mindless creatures before him. Raptor jumped in front of her, planning to attack. However, with her inner sight, Pink was able to foresee this action and ducked just as Red shot a flaming arrow over her and into Raptor's eye. The reptilian creature jumped back while letting out a curling scream.

Red stepped forward and grabbed Pink's arm and pulled her up and back with him. They barely escaped the stream of fire that Raptor blew out in retaliation, though he was partially blind.

Still the Goons continued to come. "These things just don't give up, do they?" Pink commented, hunching over a little.

"Yeah. It's never-ending." Red responded, preparing for the rest. He was finally starting to feel a little winded. Fighting with Raptor is proving to be quite the workout. He looked down at Pink, bending over. "Tiffany, are you okay?" He asked her. He knew that if he was starting to tire, then she must be… "You don't look so well."

"I'm fine Alex." She replied with a stern voice. As she held her arms up to catch her fans as they flew back into her hands. Just in time too; considering they just knocked out the Goons nearest them.

Her statement, however, only caused his concern to grow. "If you need a sec-" He however did not finish his statement, as they were both distracted by the bright light glowing in the distance. "What's that?"

Pink looked on in concern. "Alex… I think the others are over there."

Red nodded his head, "Come on." He said. However, before they could move a sinister voice stopped them.

"Well, I see that those other power punks defeated Maura. Pathetic." Raptor grunted.

Red and Pink turned to face him. "What are you talking about?" Pink asked.

"Don't worry your pretty little head, Pink Ranger." Raptor growled. "I won't go down as easy. Now Red Ranger, you're fight is with me!" He shouted before running at them.

..

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

..

..

The room was dark; very poorly lit for a medical room. But it was a room that was never really used. Until not that is. "How is she?" Asked the deep voice of the dark man, standing over the body of a lone figure.

"Not well. She will definitely be out of commission for some time." Was the solemn answer of the furry blue doctor. He was clearly of a different species than the other two occupants of the room. He scanned over the body of the female, taking note of her many abrasions and burns. He set the scanner down and started doing a more physical examination, lift her arms up and moving her head from side to side. "I'm seeing inflictions of four different Power weapons." He lifted up her wand hand. "This looks like it was done with a whip."

"The Yellow Ranger." The man said coldly.

The doctor then pointed to her chest. "She was hit simultaneous with two weapons with the same force. This abrasion is very clean, a single long, deep cut. Maybe from some sort of disk, or an axe with a rounded blade."

"Blue." The man said, with a gruffer voice.

The doctor then focused on the wound beside that one. "Though this one appears to have caused less damage, it's force was actually caused the most. It didn't penetrate quite as deeply as the bladed one, but it pierced deep enough. The weapon must be broader, with spikes; possibly a mace."

"The Black one." The man commented.

The doctor picked up his scanner and handed it to the dark man. "Well, the reason this one caused more damage, is because of the internal damage it caused. That entire side of her chest is caved in on the inside, even though the outside looks as though nothing is wrong. Had her heart been in the same place that humans' are, she'd be no more." The doctor then pressed a button on the med bed. The bed turned her on her side.

What they saw caused the dark man to clench his fists tightly. "And this one?" He all but growled.

"Simple really. A long clean gash. Clearly a sword." The answered easily.

The man nodded his head. "And that's White." He stared at the scratched up face of his strongest warrior. "Begin work on her immediately." He said as he turned to walk out of the room. "And Furk…"

"Yes?" The blue fir ball asked.

"Keep me posted." He ordered, before stomping out of the room.

"Yes, Lord Xian."

..

..

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

..

..

Pink and Red easily dodged Raptor's attack. But they knew he still had the upper hand. They double teamed him, which really kept him on his toes. But then the Goons would get in the way, and put Raptor back on top. "Yeah, this isn't working so well." Pink commented rising to her feet. "I think we need a new plan."

"Well, I'm all ears for any suggestions." Red replied as Pink helped him off of the ground.

"Maybe we can be of some assistance." Announced a friendly voice.

Red and Pink turned to see Green, Black, Blue, Yellow, and White in all their glory standing behind them.

Pink and Yellow shared a hug. "Where have you guys been?"

"We had to knock a witch off a broom. You know, the usual." Black answered.

"Is that what that light show was about?" Asked Red.

"Yeah, we knocked her out, and then…" Green started.

"She just disappeared." Blue finished.

"Weird." Pink commented.

They all nodded their heads in agreement. Red turned his head to watch Raptor and his Goons started to circle them. "Well, I know you've filled your bad guy quota for the day, but do you five mind helping us with a little problem?" Red asked.

"Not at all bro. We'll take them out together." White stated proudly. "There's no dividing us from this point on." They all agreed.

"Well isn't this cute." Raptor raged stepping forward as they slid into their fighting stances. "The Ranger Brats think they are calling the shots now."

"We're going to end this lizard man. Here and now." White shouted.

Enraged at the insult, he screamed, "We'll see about that!" Raptor and Goons charged at them. But the Rangers, there were ready.

..

..

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

..

..

The large double doors of the throne room were thrust open, and in walked Xian. He had just left Maura in the hands of his doctor. He was not pleased with the state she was in. On one hand, he was very disappointed in her. How dare she fail him! He was angry that it only took five rangers to bring her down. And on the other hand, he was furious that the rangers actually thought they could win this.

He walked past his throne and to the window overlooking space. He pressed his palm onto the Earth and kept it there as it zoomed in onto the battle below. He immediately resisted the need to roll his eyes as he witnessed Raptor being easily beaten by the seven. He didn't, however, suppress his scowl.

"Smart taking out Maura first. They obviously knew she was the strong one." He looked at Raptor, and growl in distaste. "Pathetic."

Leaving the window zoomed onto the battlefield, he walked back to his seat. His mighty throne. "Perhaps it is time that I stepped. No." He dismissed the idea as quickly as it had come. "I will Raptor one last chance to prove himself." A bluish light grew in the palm of his hand. He really detested this move he was about to use. It was cheap trick those before him loved to use. But he refused to enter this fight unless there was no other choice. He shot the ball of light through the window and to the planet. "Do not fail me Raptor." He growled to no one. "I permit you. Grow."

AN: Yay! A new chapter. Hope to see some reviews. We are getting near the end. I know that it's been awhile since I've posted, but I've been working on a comedic short that I'm writing and filming, so you can imagine the craziness I'm going through in the pre production stage. Hoping to shoot soon, so yay for that.

Okay, back to the story, how do you like it so far? It's near the end, at least of this installment. Is it turning out the way that you all expected it? Or is there something you're not happy about. Feel free to tell me, I always take my reviews into consideration.

But I hope you liked this chapter. And I hope there was a enough action for everyone. Well, thanks for reading and I'll get that next chapter out as soon as possible. FYI, reviews help to inspire that.

Thanks for reading…
