Zeltrax was lying on the barn floor as the blue sparks began to fade. Zach positioned himself in front of Xander with his guard up. "I'm impressed Blue Ranger. I didn't think you would evolve like this. This shows that you and the other Rangers have the ability to grow even stronger. Unfortunately I don't have time to keep playing games with you." Zeltrax said.
"What's wrong? Afraid of getting knocked down on the ground again?" Zach said.
Zach then noticed while in this form his mind was super clear, his issues with talking was gone, and he felt stronger than he ever has been. "This power is overwhelming. I feel like I can push past my limits in this form. So this is what Tobias was talking about to us and it's pretty radical." Zach thought to himself.
Zeltrax threw his shield like a Frisbee as Zach spun around and kicked it into one of the pillars. Zeltrax was already close to Zach as he raised his blade to slice him down the middle. Zach took his left arm with the blades still sticking out and used them to block the attack. Zeltrax's force behind his weapon was beginning to push down on him and was causing his arm to move lower to his face. "Xander what are you doing on the ground still? Get somewhere safe!" Zach said.
Xander was amazed at how his friend was more powerful that he forgot to run out of the battlefield. He got up off the ground holding his injured arm and as he began to move he saw the other pillars in the barn. "I don't know how much longer Zach can keep this fight up, but if I can break the other two pillars and collapse the barn, we might be able to get out of here." Xander thought. He then looked at Zach and told him he had a plan as he pointed at a pillar. Zach nodded to the plan as he looked over to see the shield stuck in one of the pillars. Zach then had a plan.
Zach put more effort into his blocking arm as he began to push upward on the sword. Zeltrax had two hands on his weapon as electricity began to form around it. He was going to shock Zach into submission but didn't get a chance as Zach got his blade over his head and then dropped his guard as he dashed to the opposite side of the blade. Zeltrax sword sliced all the way down hit the ground causing Zeltrax to bend over. Zach spun around and had the blades on his legs slash across his face causing him to stumble backwards holding his face. Zach then bolted over to Zeltrax with his left hand glowing in his blue power. Xander let out his roar to one of the pillars shattering it and causing the barn to begin shaking violently. Zach then did a sucker punch into Zeltrax's side sending him flying towards the last pillar with his shield in it.
Zeltrax was sent flying through the pillar as the barn began its descent towards the ground. "RUN!" Zach said as he de-morphed and activated his hardened skin in case he didn't make it to the exit in time. Xander bolted as fast as he could and Zach got past him quickly and as Zach exited the barn he turned around to see it collapse but Xander hadn't reached the exit in time. Zach kept his hardened skin on as he ran back to get his friend. Xander was at the entrance as the entrance began to fall on him. Xander raised his head up and let out his dino roar as he ran out the exit with his head up to keep from getting smashed in.
He was able to get out in time and caught up to Zach, "Who the hell puts a random pole leaning up against a haystack like that?!" Xander said breathing heavily.
"Where's Brett? Wasn't he in the barn?" Zach asked.
"Oh shit! Did we just level a giant barn on our teacher?!" Xander said as he started to feel guilty.
The Rangers didn't have time to think as an explosion happened in the barn's debris as Zeltrax emerged from the wreckage. His blade was held up over his head as electricity began forming around the whole blade.
"Xander stand behind me!" Zach said as he hardened his skin and stood in front of his friend.
"YOU THINK YOU ARE SO SMART DON'T YOU POWER RANGERS?! I MAY HAVE NOT FOUND WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR BUT I'LL GLADLY GO BACK WITH YOUR CORPSES ON MY SHOULDERS!" Zeltrax said as he sliced his sword sideways. A curved blade of electricity zoomed across the battlefield and Zach crossed his arms in an X in front of him to help block the attack.
Before the attack got close enough to them, Brett, already transformed, appeared out of nowhere and stabbed his Brachio Staff into the ground.
"BRACHIO STAFF: WIND STRIKE!"
A huge gust of green air went shooting through the battlefield and connected with the attack as it began pushing it back. Zeltrax started moving out of the debris and Brett grabbed the dial of his staff and turned it again.
"Brachio Staff: Earth Strike!"
He shoved the staff deeper into the ground as cracks began to form up towards Zeltrax and he fell in to the ground unable to move. "Alright guys we need to head back there's an Invisi-Portal close by, Zach grab one of the eggs behind me and start running, I'll carry the other one. Xander can you keep up with us?" Brett asked.
"Yeah I can." He said.
"Alright let's move." Brett commanded.
Zach picked up a blue and white dino egg and Brett grabbed the orange and white egg as they began to run back to safety. Zeltrax screamed in defeat as he tried to get out of the ground. The Rangers ran as fast as they could and didn't stop until they hit the Portal that took them home. Once they got through and were back in their hideout, Brett grabbed his first aid kit as he began giving treatment to Xander.
"I'm sorry I wasn't there right away for you Xander." Brett apologized.
"It's okay. Seeing that we have two eggs I can understand why." Xander said as Brett checked his arms for wounds.
"I don't know how we are going to beat Zeltrax. His armor is hard to break." Zach said.
"Yeah but it looked like you had the upper hand when you went into Super Dino Mode." Xander said.
"Super Dino Mode? You did the thing that Tobias did when he fought Michael?" Brett asked.
"Yeah. I don't know how I got that power either. I was enraged about Xander getting hurt and then all of a sudden I felt a buildup of power inside me and I let it out. You know how in video games you can unlock abilities if you get strong enough? That's what it felt like to me. Once I unleashed the power I just felt invincible. Even though I was enraged with the idea of losing my friend, my mind was perfectly calm. But for some reason I could tell with that huge increase in power I wasn't strong enough to beat Zeltrax. I think my punch attack did some damage but based on what we were told about on when Michael fought him, that one punch wasn't going to be enough. I think the only thing keeping Zeltrax down was the blue sparks moving around his body from my attack." Zach explained.
"Hey Zach…You didn't stutter at all through that entire speech." Xander said.
"Your right…My mind does feel a lot clearer than normal. Ever since the illness years ago I've always had a hard time speaking because it felt like something was going on inside my brain. But that feeling is gone." Zach said surprised.
"I'm wondering if this Super Dino Mode has anything to do with it. It's just a theory but maybe this power advances the dino DNA inside you guys. Maybe the DNA, and this is not any form of disrespect to you guys at all, is fixing the problems you guys may have. For Zach it's his speech impairment, I wonder what it's done for Tobias." Brett thought.
"I'm not sure. But I really wish I could obtain this power. I don't want to be powerless anymore. I noticed that when fighting Zeltrax. I also know that when I was fighting him, fear began overwhelming me again. I almost froze because of it. I hate letting that fear get to me, but I'm not sure how to properly deal with it." Xander said with his head down.
Brett grabbed his shoulder, "Having fear is normal. People are always afraid of something and it normally takes time for them to overcome that fear. It's just an obstacle you have to overcome Xander. Just know that I'm here to help as well as the other Rangers. You don't always have to face fear alone. I'm sure one day you'll get over your fear."
"I hope you right. I would've thought by now I'd have more bravery to do so." Xander replied.
"We all have fears. I'm afraid of losing you guys. This team of ours is the only thing stopping Mesogog. Plus over the time I've gotten to know you guys and have trained as your master, I've developed a family like bond with all of you. That's why when Megalador attacked I immediately went into action and tried to do the best I could to protect all of you." Brett said.
"My fear is losing those close to me, like you Xander. I've known you since you were little and I've always considered you like a member of my family. You're like a little brother I wish I had." Zach said.
Xander had a smile on his face as Brett finished patching him up. He then looked over at the two dino eggs in the room. "So how did you know about there being a second egg?" He asked.
"One of the Tyrannodrones were leaving from the barn after I found the orange one. I found it weird that they were leaving from the site on their own and quickly pursued. I killed it and found that it was holding the blue egg. Once I grabbed it I quickly began making my way back to you guys. I'm guessing the power source on the computer was not just picking up one egg, but two." Brett explained.
"I'm curious to know what Michael was doing with all of these eggs. All of them have a Zord inside them so my best is that he was able to go to that other world and brought them here." Xander said.
"What I'm curious about that place is if he could find these eggs harboring all of this power, what else is over there that he may have brought here?" Zach wondered.
"I don't know but let's rest up for now and tomorrow all of us can try and hatch these eggs. Based on the Parazord's egg when I hatched it, only certain people can get the Zord inside. I'm guessing that's how that went for Michael's Zords as well." He explained.
With that being said the two Power Rangers ended up going home as Brett stayed underground looking at the super computer's files. "Michael, some of the things you have done have been recorded into this super computer that has things dated back to Mesogog's birth into this world. There was a lot of information Austin had that only him and a few other individuals that worked with Hitler knew about. I'm curious if you knew anything about a white cube that went missing during Mesogog's attack 70 years ago. If my thoughts are correct, this cube could help end Mesogog once and for all, or it could be the end of us." Brett thought as he ended up staying up that night trying to find more information about this power source.
