"White Ranger, Dino Power!"
Michael called out as he pulled back on the gold piece of his morpher. Michael swung his body to the side with his right hand bent up at the elbow and his left hand formed into a fist at the right elbow. He then lifted his left arm while maneuvering his right hand in a miniature circle before pressing the button on his morpher. Michael's white ranger form spun around him like he was in a tornado as the suit appeared on his body. In his hand, the white feather dagger appeared Michael held it with an inverted grip as Zeltrax raised his shield and sword into a fighting stance.
"Let's see if you can beat me, White Ranger." He challenged.
Michael ran across the battlefield and right when he got into a close enough distance of Zeltrax, he flipped forward into the air throwing his enemy off balance. Michael came down ready to impale Zeltrax but met his shield first. Michael put his feet onto the shield and used it to back flip off it. He then spun around in circles trying to dizzy Zeltrax.
"ENOUGH!" Zeltrax yelled as he stabbed the sword into the ground as electricity erupted around him. Michael got hit from the attack as he was sent spiraling in the air and rolled onto the ground. He stood back up with his weapon still in an inverted grip.
"Interesting attack you have there." He said wiping the mouth of his helmet. Zeltrax raised his sword at him.
"You're not getting close to me as long as I can shoot electricity from my blade White Ranger." He claimed.
"Well then I'll just force my way into your comfort zone." Michael said as he raised his weapon in the air and started drawing golden arrows in the sky.
"Jurassic Swarm."
Michael created a lot more arrows with ease and he brought one of his arms to his side and swung it across the air as the arrows came soaring at Zeltrax. Zeltrax raised his sword and slammed it into the ground as an electric field formed in front of him and once the two attacks made contact with each other a major explosion was made as the dirt erupted into the air causing visibility in that area to became impossible to see. Michael then zoomed forward into the dusty fog and emerged out of it grabbing Zeltrax's sword. He raised to swing from the left side but Zeltrax side stepped around it and went to bash Michael with his shield. Michael threw his own weapon into the air as he cocked his now free hand back as a white aura formed around his fist. Michael was having flashbacks of when he attacked his mother and son.
"I can never take back the terrible things I've done. I will always live my life forever in guilt." Michael said in his mind as he dropped Zeltrax's sword and had the white aura form around both his hands now.
"There's no way you'll be able to break through my shield. It's made with the world's toughest materials. Even an asteroid could not break it in two!" Zeltrax said triumphantly.
"I'm not going to break the shield. I just want it out of my face." Michael said as he took his right hand punched the middle of the shield with all his might. The white aura transferred into the shield as a giant force was emitted causing Zeltrax to take a hard stance in hopes not to get blown away from the attack.
"What kind of power is this?!" Zeltrax said shocked.
Michael then took his left hand and went to punch the side of the shield as the force from Michael's most powerful hit get forcefully removed from Zeltrax's hands. Michael then clenched his fists tighter as the power still emerged from his fists.
"I'm going to end you Zeltrax. I will carry the burden of not only killing you, but freeing my wife from your wretched form." Michael said as he breathed in deeply and stepped into Zeltrax's comfort zone. "I told you I'd get in your comfort zone." Michael said as he began rapidly hitting Zeltrax in different areas of his face and body. His fists moved faster than the human eye could see and must've landed more than thirty punches before he reeled back his right arm and generated a bunch of power into that one fist and as he came to punch Zeltrax, he hit him square in his face while yelling out his knock out move.
"WHITE JURASSIC OVERDRIVE!"
Michael right hooks his last attack and as he does the white power emitting around his arm shoots from his fist and into Zeltrax as a huge burst of air storms across Zeltrax sending him flying across the battlefield with explosions following his path. Zeltrax finally lands on the ground and gets one last explosion around him as he yells in pain. The dust finally settles as Zeltrax lies defeated on the ground. He tries to crawl but the pain keeps him on the ground from Michael's attack.
"No…This isn't possible…You shouldn't be this strong without the White Ranger Spirit controlling you…" Zeltrax said struggling to get off the ground.
Michael began breathing heavily knowing that he's reached his limit as he raised his hand up. The white dagger weapon soars into his hand. "Just one more hit and I can end this nightmare. It's over Zeltrax. Son, I hope you can forgive me." Michael said as he created eight golden arrows into the sky. Michael knew that this attack had to land because afterwards he won't have the strength to keep fighting anymore. "Damn that Overdrive really took a lot out of me." He said breathing.
He sent the arrows flying towards Zeltrax and in a spur of the moment, Tobias appeared out of nowhere.
"NO YOU CAN'T!" He screamed out as he super sped in front of Zeltrax.
"Dinothunder Power Up! Super Dino Mode!"
Michael saw Tobias stand in the way of the arrow's path with the white extended out of his suit as he took the blasts from the attack and was forced out of his transformation with cuts on his body, some blood coming out of his mouth, and his clothes ripped and filled with holes. Tobias fell to his knees on the ground with his arms spread out.
"Tobias! What the hell are you doing?! Why did you get in the way!?" Michael yelled out at him.
Tobias was barely holding his arms up, "My mother is still in there. She's still in there…I'm not going to lose my family…I'm bringing all of us back together again…" He said breathing heavily.
"Tobias! You know that you lost any chance to save your mom the moment she became that monster! Get out of the way! We have to end these monste—"
"Shut up, shut up, shut up, SHUT UP! I KNOW I CAN SAVE MY MOM! I CAN SAVE HER! THIS IS MY MOTHER! HOW WOULD YOU FEEL IF I WAS IN THAT SITUATION!? WOULDN'T YOU WANT TO SAVE ME SOMEHOW?! WOULD YOU BE ABLE TO JUST TAKE THE LIFE OR WATCH SOMEONE ELSE TAKE THE LIFE OF YOUR ONLY SON!?" Tobias roared.
Michael clenched his fists in anger, but then calmed down. "Power down." He said as he reverted back to his human form. Michael recalled in his mind a time when Tobias as a child, brought home a dog who was dying and how he was crying asking his father to bring it back to life.
"I tried saving it…I really did…But you can save it right dad? You use to be a doctor. I don't want its life to be taken away. This dog might have a family…"
"Even though you're a man, you still have that small child in you that sees life to be something precious. I was always powerless to say no when you would try so hard to save the life of another." Michael thought.
Mesogog quickly appeared out of an Invisi-Portal as he grabbed Zeltrax. He went to grab Tobias as well and as he did, lasers came soaring across the battlefield and hit Mesogog in the back as he turned to see Zach and Xander on their Raptor Bikes with their guns out. Brett was riding with Zach as he stood on the bike and jumped off. Brett and the others were already in Ranger form and Brett pulled out his saber weapon as he slashed as Mesogog's arm that was holding Tobias. Mesogog back handed Brett who flipped backwards and as he did, Brett twisted the dial on his saber.
"Brachio Staff! Earth Strike!"
When Brett landed onto the ground, he stabbed the saber into the ground as the ground began to split causing some distance from Mesogog and Tobias. "You're not touching my student again Mesogog." Brett said. Zach and Xander held their guns up at their foe as Mesogog looked at all of the Rangers.
"I see that I will have to withdraw. I'm still not powerful enough to take on all of you. I will be taking my comrade back. One day I will have all of my power back from all of your Power Rangers. Mark my words." Mesogog snarled as he lifted his hands and vanished into an Invisi-Portal.
"He can go through Portals too?" Brett thought.
"Tobias!" Zach and Xander called out as they ran up to their friend and lifted him up off the ground.
Michael's legs began to shake but had a feeling he needed to get back home, "I saw what my power did all to you guys. His friends might get hostile with me, I should get home before they notice me." Michael thought. He quickly dashed away with the very little strength he had. Brett noticed it while the others did not.
"I thought we got rid of him. Did he take control of Michael again?" Brett wondered. But seeing that the White Ranger was gone he focused on getting Tobias up. Tobias was in a lot of pain as his friends tried to get him on the Raptor bikes to treat his injuries.
"We can take the Portal nearby back and treat him at the hideout." Xander mentioned.
Tobias on the other hand was worried more about his mom and dad then his own injuries. "I wish dad would've come with us to the hideout. But I think that might be a bad opportunity for him. I'm not entirely sure how much the others would be accepting of him with that power around his wrist."
"You uh okay?" Zach stuttered to Tobias.
"Yeah, I'm holding on tight let's just go." He said. The Rangers all went back home with happy thoughts and Tobias was joyed that his father, was finally back.
Michael had zoomed back home as he walked through a front door of an abandoned house and laid out on his couch. He had a couple of bruises from the fight but mentally he was exhausted. He was breathing heavily from the run and spending all of his energy fighting back the exhaustion that he's been put through. "I hope Tobias will be okay." He said as his body began resting.
"If that thing, Mesogog, is going to be a threat to this town I will do whatever it takes to stop him. This place is my son's home and I'll be damned if I'll let anything hurt it." He said with conviction.
Michael then closed his eyes as he fell asleep. A sleep where he was having nightmares of all his past evil deeds while possessed by the White Ranger.
