About four days went by and during those days there was a well needed peace spread throughout. The Power Rangers helped with restoring the hospital along with the entire town. The damage would've taken almost a month to fix and should have if it was for Tobias and Michael using their powers to fix up the place when nobody was around. Preparations were set to take people in need of a hospital to the clinics in town or to a neighboring city hospital. On the fourth day the two Power Rangers were able to get the building back to functioning there was still some things that needed to be fixed but Tobias and Michael made sure that job could be left to professionals. Nobody knew who helped put the hospital back together few had ideas that it was Michael and the Rangers.

Tobias was sprawled out on the couch exhausted from his past four days.

"I tell you dad, the next time we decide to fight something in a building as important as a hospital. Let's try to get the creature outside first…I honestly can't handle the pain my body is in right now…I'd rather fight Mesogog than go through that again…" Tobias said breathing heavily.

"Remind me again…Who should've shoved Terrorsaurus outside instead of across the lobby floor? That certainly wasn't me." Michael said as he laid out on the couch in pain.

"Fair enough." Tobias said ending the soon to be debate.

"Hey Tobias?" Michael asked as he picked up a PowerAde bottle next to the couch.

"Yeah what?" Tobias said looking at the ceiling.

"Drink up, you greatly need it." Michael said as he chucked the bottle at him. Tobias raised his hand and grabbed the bottle without looking in the direction of it being thrown. He opened up the lid and began downing the contents. When he was done he screwed the lid back on.

"I just left the hospital but I feel like I need to go to get some pain medications with how sore as hell I am." He said with a chuckle.

"You have to be up at 6 in the morning don't you for work?" Michael asked.

"Oh don't remind me. I have a seven hour shift and I can't call off." Tobias said despairingly.

"Oh how is everyone handling you're kidnapping from Zeltrax? How's your pathetic boss doing?" Michael inquired.

"She's still a bitch. But she's lightened up with me at least. She believed the story that I helped save her and that the Power Rangers showed up in time to save us. She only remembers getting attacked by the Tyrannodrones and seeing me fight them off. Everyone else won't shut up about how fearless I was fighting, and the General Manager won't shut up about how I'm a reckless child for just jumping in there. What's worse was I thought I was going to have to reveal my identity as a Power Ranger and I didn't want to put everyone at that store in danger. It's been a long while and everyone talks about it like it just happened yesterday. It's gotten kind of annoying. You won't believe this but Kalyn gave me a heartfelt apology as well as a talk about how she was surprised that I saved her life. Granted I think how I acted with her abuse is that of a child, but it doesn't matter if I hate you, a life is precious and I'm going to do what it takes to defend it. The only time I won't is for very specific reasons, but my boss did not meet or come close to any of those reasons. I'm hoping she comes around and starts thinking of this as a chance to start over but I highly doubt it." Tobias said as he turned his head over to see Michael already asleep. "Yeah I feel the same way buddy." Tobias got up and turned on the AC in the apartment as he grabbed a fleece blanket and put it over his father so he doesn't get cold. He then went into his room and fell asleep so he could be ready for his more painful day tomorrow.

Mesogog was sitting in his chair as he stared at the variety of colorful liquid canisters in his lab. He was pondering on what creature to create that would help achieve his goals. "I need to come up with something as overwhelming as Terrorsaurus. Terrorsaurus was a powerhouse of a monster though his movements were slow until he transformed into his Super Dino Mode. That's it! I shall create a creature that will not only be a powerhouse, but is extremely agile. Something that can move like humans than what my previous creatures have been able to do." Mesogog got up and began looking at all the specimens in his lab as he tried to figure out what would make the best combination. In his search he found a liquid canister that had flesh of a human in it, a gold piece of metal, and a piece of the black armor Mesogog had salvaged from Zeltrax's corpse.

"As useless as Zeltrax was, he was a formidable adversary for the Power Rangers. What I never thought of was using him as a material to mix his power with that of my creatures. I'll create a golden variant of Zeltrax that can defeat the Rangers, and with the flesh of this human body part it should give him the ability to fight like those wretched Power Rangers that they won't ever see coming." Mesogog lifted the lever slowly as the Geo-Randomizer began filling with a gold smoke instead of the greyish white. The smoke then began getting absorbed into the body of a golden looking figure who had two of his fists placed on the ground and was kneeling on one leg. The doors opened up as bits of purple gems began glowing brightly on the monster's chest.

"Master Mesogog. The name is Golden Rod. I will do whatever your bidding is." The creature said with a squeaky pitch voice of that of a child going through puberty.

"I want you to help me achieve a power source that will make me omnipotent. I'm going to send you to a place that I need you to get me the power that lies there and bring it to me. If the Power Rangers show up I want them dead and their Dino Gems brought to me."

"These Power Rangers will be no problem Master. Like the town, I'll obliterate the Rangers! I will make you proud Master!" Golden Rod said as he maintained his pose.

Mesogog closed the doors once more as smoke began filling up in the machine and more power began seeping into Golden Rod.

Tobias was dreaming as he heard a voice call out his name. His eyes awoke as he all he could see around his was thick fog. The fog stayed close to the floor wrapped around his ankles. He looked up to see a temple the same one Mesogog was at. Tobias was at the entrance as he kept his guard up in case something should happen.

"Enter"

The doors that were closed slowly began to open as Tobias slowly walked up the stairs and into the door way. He peeked around the massive interior as he saw the statues of the Zords lined up on the sides making a pathway to a giant diamond rock that held the Power Cube inside it. In front of the rock was a pedestal with the imprint of the Shield of Triumph. Tobias slowly made his way down the brick path as he got up to the pedestal and ran his hand around the edges of the print.

"What is this place?" He wondered.

A low growl was made that echoed throughout the room and the doors began to close behind Tobias as he quickly turned around and super sped to the door but had slammed right into them as he was now locked inside the temple. He turned around to see a red Zord that had a gold forehead with spikes sticking out. The face looked like that of the Tricera Zord but red with green eyes and a green band around the horn on its nose. The creature had red legs, a silver collar, black and gold shoulder and thight pads with a red and white tail and a black gold plate located on the middle of its back.

"A Styracosaurus Zord…" Tobias said surprised.

The creature stared down at Tobias as it looked like it was protecting the cube behind it. Tobias's Dino Gem transformed and instead of the Tyranno Zord faceplate, it was that of the Styraco Zord. Tobias could hear it speak through his Zord as he looked up at it.

"You've been waiting for me? Why?" He asked it.

"Because Red Ranger, this Zord needs its master if you wish to withdraw the full power of your Shield of Triumph. It's been trying to call you and you haven't been listening. I have brought you here in your dreams as a way to call you out. We can no longer wait for you to answer on your own time. Mesogog has discovered the temple and is seeking the power that resides here. If Mesogog is able to acquire the power behind the Zord, I'm afraid not even all five of you will have a chance against him." A man said as he appeared in front of the Zord. The man had robes that covered his entire body and removed the hood as a person with distinct facial features was shown. The man had wide eyes and shaved hair along with a long beard. On the side of his head was a set of numbers.

"Who are you?" Tobias asked.

"I'm Austin Pappert. I am the one of the original 3 who sealed Mesogog 70 years ago. Like you I was a leader of my 3 man team that was to watch over Adolf Hitler." Austin said.

"I don't really do well working with Nazis no offense." Tobias got a bit a defensive.

"I promise you, I would want nothing more than to fix my wrongs. Once Hitler was killed by Mesogog and we sealed him, I created a new identity and fled to America. I knew the seal would someday be broken and I have done everything until my death to right my wrongs and my past. I've kept my eyes on all of you guys and I know that you guys would love it if Mesogog was defeated. I'm relying on you guys to help me and help the world. You lost your mother and father, Xander lost his girlfriend, lives have been lost because of Mesogog. I once was a Nazi but I had removed myself from the title and have left that behind me. All I want is a chance to make sure no one else will suffer anymore. I have had 70 years to repent and regret my decisions." Austin said.

"That number on your head. What's it for?" Tobias asked.

"Nobody knows this and it was greatly kept top secret, but those with a set of numbers branded on their heads were forced slaves of Hitler. They primarily were Jews that Hitler thought would make useful slaves. A very few were selected while the rest got the gas chambers. I was forced to serve him if I wanted to keep my brother and my kids alive. My wife was murdered in front of me as assurance of what would happen should I betray, and that execution happened after I weak willingly agreed to serve in hopes that my family would be safe. I was locked in a prison that I could never escape. If anything I see myself a victim to the powerful Adolf Hitler. There was two others like me who were my closest friends through the whole thing. They too were there to help seal Mesogog away." Austin explained with a serious face, but you could see a couple tears streaming down his cheeks.

Tobias could tell that Austin was not lying and believed his story.

"What do I need to do Austin?"

"You need to come to the Power Grid, that is the name of the other world where you're Zords rest in. Where all your Megazord battles have been in and once you're here I'll have your Tyranno Zord pick you up and bring you to the temple. Come back inside the temple and place your Shield on the pedestal. Styraco Zord will then transfer his power to the Shield and you will have the full power of your Shield unlocked. Time is of the essence so get here as quickly as you can." Austin said.

Tobias's view turned black as he woke to his alarm. His memory became hazy as he looked to see that his alarm had been going off for a whole hour and was once again going to be late for work. "Shit!" He said as he super sped throughout the entire apartment trying to get somewhat cleaned up and then in seconds made his way to his job and as he got there he saw his boss Kalyn smoking a cigarette outside as a group of city workers were outside.

"Kalyn what's up with everyone here?" He asked.

"Well our building is out of commission for the day. Night crew did something and short circuited everything. The people here are trying to work on fixing everything but I didn't know about it until recently when I got here. They all are saying that we will have to be closed for the weekend so they can try and fix it up by Monday." She said rubbing her forehead.

"Oh okay well I'll just head back home then. Take care." Tobias said as he turned around to leave but Kalyn caught him before he walked away.

"Hey can I talk to you real quick? Somewhere private?" She asked.

She and Tobias went into Kalyn's SUV and while sitting in the car Kalyn inhaled deeply, "I'm thinking of quitting Rally's." She said.

"Wait why? I thought you were trying to support your kids I would think this is the best place to do so." Tobias said shocked.

"I can find other jobs. It's just…I've had time to think about everything since those creatures attacked and kidnapped me. I honestly feel like I let the stress of not just my life but my job get to me and I've been taking it out on everyone. I've realized since that day two weeks ago that I'm a terrible boss and I just kind of refused to accept it. I can tell that everyone here would think this place would be better off if I wasn't around." She said as she wiped her glasses on her shirt.

"I think you should stay. If you truly feel bad for the things you've done, stay and change. If you show that you've changed your ways I'm sure that effort will reach out to your staff and they can be open to a second chance. It's only go to look worse on you if you leave and not repair the bridge you've been burning."

"You really think everyone here will be up to giving me a second chance?" She asked as a tear ran down her face.

"I can't speak for everyone but a lot of the workers have confided in me that you should stop and are afraid to say something. I think over the next couple days off take time to know what you want to say and come up with a course of action that will help you achieve your goals." Tobias said.

"Thanks that means a lot. I'll do just that and work on it. You're a good guy Tobias, saving my life twice now huh?" She said with a chuckle.

"Wait, when was the second time?" Tobias asked off guard.

"You do a bad job at hiding it from me Mr. Power Ranger." She said with a smile on her face.

Tobias was shocked and as he tried to speak to defend himself she stopped him.

"You're secret is safe with me. I saw you transform when I was chained up. Plus I hardly doubt anyone in their right mind would fight those creatures without freaking out like you did." She said.

Tobias didn't know how to feel with Kalyn knowing his identity but he didn't feel like she would let his secret out for everyone to know. Some time passed and Tobias got out of her car as he began making his way back home to get out of his work clothes and head over to Brett's place to try and have everyone gather over there to discuss his dream.

While at Brett's place, Tobias told everyone about his weird dream. He explained that he was also worried about Michael's Super Dino Mode. Michael was a bit hesitant on listening to him.

"If the situation calls for me to go Super Dino I'm taking it. I don't need you to worry about what goes on with me while I'm in the form. By how I see it I'm about as powerful as all of you guys in Super Dino Mode and Brett in normal Ranger Form combined. I mean who was the one who had no problem with Zeltrax and the one who killed Terrorsaurus? I might even be able to stand toe to toe against all of you with Tobias in what he calls Triassic Ranger Form. The only reason why I haven't ended fights in seconds is because when I first got the Dino Morpher I tested out my abilities and saw how destructive they can be. I also know my limits while in Super Dino Mode thanks to fighting Terrorsaurus. So I don't understand why you want to limit me more by telling me not to go in it." Michael said.

"I'll tell you why I'm asking you to not to go Super anymore. I've watched what this power has done to you unwillingly. If you forgot that you was a prisoner to this power and look how far we had to go just to pull you out of it! I've lost mom! If you guys here have an ounce of understanding of what's going on with me right now know that I'm standing on the edge of a damn cliff because the people I lost. I don't want to lose anyone else I care about and that especially includes you Dad! You who is my only family member left from this nightmare. You who I trust more than anyone else on this damn earth! I understand that this power can help us out in a bind and I understand how much of a bad son I'm being telling you not to do this, but the last thing I need right now is not lose my father! I don't want to have to lose any more than I already have! Once we go to this alternative world and I connect with the Styraco Zord and infuse the rest of the power into my Shield of Triumph I'm going to not only be stronger but I'm going to be able to protect you guys a lot more than I have been and I'm going to do everything I can to protect people until Mesogog is six feet into the ground!" Tobias had clenched his fists tightly as tears ran down his face.

Michael took a second to process everything as he looked at him in the eye, "You make a great argument. I won't use Super Dino Mode EXCEPT as a last resort. If we are getting our assess handed to us and we need to make a desperate move I'm going all out because I don't want to lose you guys either. I'm going to protect everyone I have the same drive as you. Don't think for a second I don't care about you guys because I do." Michael said as Brett turned around and walked towards the super computer in the room.

"Now that's all settled I found something this morning where I can change the coordinates of the Invisi-Portals to travel to this alternative world. The name on the computer for it is called the Power Grid. It's a parallel like world created by some omnipotent force. It's where we seem to go whenever the monster we fight grow and all I know about it is that this Power Grid is where our powers in the Dino Morphers come from and our Zords reside. It's been a bit hard to figure out but I'm speculating that this world protects ours like Tobias said from my relative's words. So let's change a few things and we should be able to go there." Brett became typing rapidly on the keyboard and once he was done the red colored wall in the room opened up as behind the red Raptor Cycle an Invisi-Portal activated.

"Do you guys think we'll need to transform before going in there?" Xander asked.

"No I think we'll be fine. Let's get in there and get out. If we are gone for too long our world can easily be affected by Mesogog with his monster's rampaging." Zach said.

The five Power Rangers jumped into the Portal as they arrived in the forested area where the Tyranno Zord was waiting for them.

"Hey Rexy." Tobias said as the Zord lowered its head to the ground and Tobias reached out to pet it.

"Okay everyone let's hop onto the Zord and get this power." Xander said as he jumped onto the face and began making his way to the back of the Zord. Xander crossed his arms over his chest as he phased into the cockpit of the T-Rex. Everyone began climbing up the giant dino Zord and as Tobias began making his way up Brett reached out and grabbed Tobias's shoulder.

"Hey can you give me a second?" He asked of him.

Tobias turned around.

"I understand where you're coming from watching out for Michael like that. But I think you need to trust him a bit more than you're giving him credit for. Remember when you tried to get us to accept him and realize he wasn't a threat to us? You tried so hard and were even risking a big gamble that he could be trusted. Also remember when he overcame the White Dino Gem's power and made it his own? Instead of killing you in Mesogog's lair he saved you and got you out of there. During the entire time he's been the White Ranger he's done nothing but go above and beyond for this team. Now I can't speak for him for I don't know what's going on in his mind, but I know if someone who fought for my trust began doubting me like this, I would feel like they are a terrible person. He has overcome so much and it seems like after everything he's been through you should be able to trust him to overcome this unexplored power he has right?"

"Yeah you're right. I'm just so scared of losing someone I care about again. I think I've lost too much already and right now if I were to watch dad die or worse, if I'm the one who has to do it, I don't know if I can take it. I haven't healed from my mother's death I've just been not showing it as much. I'm trying to be strong and not let it hold me down like chains. But it's eating away at me like piranha's to their prey. In my mental state I'm on the edge of a cliff and doing everything I can to not fall over. It's a lot I'm having to deal with and the sooner we kill Mesogog, the better and quicker I can start healing. But as long as he's alive I'm having paranoid thoughts and whenever a monster shows up I feel like another person is going to die. I don't want anything to happen to anyone anymore. I want to be a shield and protect those, and if someone were to die I would want it to be me, and whatever is going to take my life will be going down with me." Tobias said with obvious facial expressions of exhaustion and seriousness from his internal conflicts.

"I wish I could tell you everything will work out just fine, but I would be lying and giving you false hope. I don't even know what the future holds. But know that all this conflict you're fighting against, just know that you aren't alone. We all have something we are afraid of losing. Look at Xander, he was the first one out of all us who lost someone close to him. It was his girlfriend, she was frozen in a block of ice. She was the one thing that helped keep his world together and because of Mesogog and Fridgia he lost her in a blink of an eye. He fights to make sure that no one goes through what he has had to deal with. He's able to keep himself above water through us and his friend Tyson as well as still seeing Emily as a spirit who watches over him. He's also like 14 years younger than you. You aren't the only one suffering through this. If you take anything from this discussion take that." Brett said as he patted Tobias's shoulder and they made their way up the Zord and into the cockpit.

"Wow took you guys long enough to get in here." Michael chuckled.

"Pftt shut up dad." Tobias joked. He commanded the Tyranno Zord to head to the destination and Tobias walked over to a corner as he put his back up against the wall. He was processing everything Brett said. "Brett is right. I shouldn't restrain dad." He said under his breath. Michael walked over to Tobias and he noticed a necklace around his neck that he didn't know about before. "Is that the necklace that use to belong to mom?"

"It was the first necklace I ever gave your mother. She just loved the simplicity of silver banded chains. I attached a broach to it of a red gem heart but I can't seem to find it. You know she was a brilliant woman. But stubborn when it came to being overprotective. Just like you." Michael said as he reminisced.

"Why are you wearing it? I thought you didn't like necklaces?" Tobias asked.

"I don't. But, whenever I missed your mother, I would always keep something that she liked on me. It would always feel like she was right there next to me. Even in death, I can still feel her next to me." Michael said.

"I miss her too dad. Do you think if she wasn't caught up with this whole mess, we could've been a proper family again?" Tobias asked with a sad tone.

"I don't think we need to think of situations that aren't ever going to happen. Doing so forces us to not recover or heal from the pain we are trying to overcome."

Tobias was silent when he heard that. He took a deep breath as he the words just told to him played in his mind repeatedly.

"Wait seriously? I-I-Just…That's just…Wow." Tobias couldn't find the words to say.

"Hey guys! We're here!" Xander called back.

Michael and Tobias walked to the front of the cock pit as they saw this giant temple like structure standing in front of them.

"That thing is huge. I think it's big enough to fit multiple Brachio Zords inside and still have room." Zach said in awe.

"Is this what you saw in your dream Tobias?" Brett asked.

"Yeah it is." Tobias said.

Xander began jumping up and down, "OH THIS IS SO COOL! I've always wanted to visit a temple! Come on guys let's go! This'll be a blast!" He said as he exited out of the Zord.

"Hey you little shrimp! Wait up!" Zach said as he left the cockpit.

"Well someone's excited but I'll admit this is kind of cool." Brett said as he exited the Zord.

Tobias and Michael stared at the temple together.

"Well son let's go get your powers upgraded." Michael said as he held his left hand up in the air.

"Yeah let's do this." Tobias said as he turned around and high fived his father and in a second the two vanished and began to race to see who could get to the door first.
