Episode 574: Power Rangers Millennial Kingdom: Welcome to Time Force Academy
April 2113
At the front desk of the Delta Base, Jack watches as cadets and officers swipe in with their IDs. He didn't imagine that he'd be a security guard when he graduated, but he didn't feel he could go out in the field after losing Joe. Trip offered him his choice of partners, choice of missions, but he didn't want to go back into the field.
In the hall of the Delta Base, Marvin, Vesper, Eddie, and Abigail are headed to class
"Just a sec guys" said Marvin "I've got to pick up my ID from the office"
"You lost another one?" Eddie asked
"Yeah" said Marvin "I'm not sure how this time, I could've sworn I had it on me"
Outside the Delta Base, Chloe is holding an ID card
"Sorry, Marv" said Chloe and she approaches the Delta Base with Marvin's ID in hand "but I have to figure out what's happened to Joe and I know Time Force knows more than they're letting on"
In a classroom at the Delta Base, Marvin, Vesper, Eddie, and Abigail are in a class being taught by Jen Scotts
"Today's lesson is about facing the odds" said Jen "with a personal example from my past, which you may or may not have seen if you've done your studies" and Vesper drops something she was fiddling with "Please, Vesper. I'm gonna tell you about the time I was facing down Ransik, who was our biggest foe at the time. We weren't sure we were going to make it, it looked dire, he had us. But I stood up to him and let him know that I had a mission I was going to bring him back. In his pursuit Ransik allowed his hatred and his anger to conquer him blind. So much so that he attacked his own daughter" and Vesper drops something again again "Vesper, please. That caused Ransik to rethink his ways and turn himself in. So without my friends, without the other Rangers around me, I couldn't have done what I did. The point is be here for each other. When you graduate, you will be assigned a partner. You'll need to be there for each other. And when you're facing down the odds, remember that. Be there for each other and you will succeed" and Vesper yawns "Vesper!"
"Listen" said Vesper "I don't understand why we're focusing on the past. Zordon reigns, the universe is for the most part at peace. We can't die, can't be seriously injured"
"You can" said Marvin
"Shut up, Marv" said Vesper
"What was it like when you were fighting Ransik?" Eddie asked Jen "were you nervous?"
"Eddie, you're being too obvious" said Marvin
"I'm just curious, I want to know everything" said Eddie
"I know" said Jen "you're excited and I appreciate that. I had a fury inside when I faced Ransik. But I did not let the fury run me. Instead, I was focused, I was calm, and I put my mission ahead"
Outside the Delta Base, Chloe swipes Marvin's ID and gets in the Delta Base she ducks by the security guard
"Chloe, what are you doing?" Jack asked
"Jack?" Chloe asked
"Did you really think your own twin brother would mix you up with one of our friends?" Jack asked
"Obviously you don't know me as well as you think you do" said Chloe "I pride myself on never thinking ahead"
"That's the problem" said Jack
In Jen's classroom, she continues her lecture
"The past is something you can and should learn from" said Jen "Zordon did restore the universe, but evil still exists, it must hide, it can't come out in the open, but it does still exist. It still exists in anyone that survived the Tribulation and anyone that was born after, including all of you. Do not forget that Adam and Eve were created perfect… and yet still fell. You were not created perfect, you have still all sinned, not to the point that people who lived before the Glorious Appearing used to, like I did. Do not become arrogant and think that what happened in the past could not be repeated now, even by one of you… Vesper, what is that, what do you have there?"
"Nothing" said Vesper "nothing" as she tries to cover up some breadboards and wires
"Can you share that with the class?" Jen asked
"I'd rather not" said Vesper "it's not history yet, Professor Scotts. I'm still working on it."
"I appreciate that" said Jen "but as your instructor I'm gonna need to know what that is"
"No" said Vesper and as she tries to pull it away, she hits one of the buttons. A hologram shows a 3D image of the room that grows to fill the room. The hologram shows a white beam shatter the wall in an explosion sending everyone flying.
"Professor Scotts" said Vesper "I didn't think this device worked yet, but it can predict a probable future up to a minute"
"Up to a minute?" Jen asked "Everyone get down" and she throws up a shield. A big white beam of light cuts through the wall and the pieces of the wall bounce off the shield "everyone okay?"
"What just happened?" Marvin asked
"TIME FOR TIME FORCE!" said Jen "TIME PINK!" and she feels the rush of energy that she hasn't felt in nearly a hundred years "Everyone, we need to move to the emergency bunkers"
"She Morphed!" Eddie said with glee
"I know" said Marvin "we've got to get everyone to the emergency bunkers"
"But she Morphed!" said Eddie
"Can we talk about this later?" Marvin asked
"Okay" said Eddie
"Professor Scotts, what happened?" Abigail asked, frightened "what's happening?"
"Abigail, I don't know" said Jen "my main priority is protecting all of you, let's go" and she leads them down the hall. As they go down the hall they hear more explosions. A professor in computer science runs up
"Jen, what's happening?" the professor asked
"I don't know, but I'm going to get to the bottom of it" said Jen
"Vesper, can you use that device again?" Marvin asked
"It only had one charge" said Vesper "I haven't figured out how to create a stable power supply for it"
"Could you create a stable power supply for it?" Eddie asked the professor
"I'm a computer scientist, not an electrical engineer" said the professor as he ran off "Jen, they're everywhere!"
"Who's everywhere?" Jen asked, but the professor was gone
"How you holding up Abigail?" Eddie asked
"I'm just gonna follow you guys" said Abigail
"Stick with us and we'll keep you safe" said Eddie
"This is way more intense than I ever thought being a Time Force Officer would be" said Abigail
"Abigail" said Jen "it's going to be okay"
"Okay" said Abigail "I trust you" and then two Time Force Officers walk up, one of them being Dean Hienz
"Jen Scotts, Pink Time Force Ranger" said Hienz "join the Alliance"
"What is the Alliance?" Jen asked
"To bring back evil" said Hienz "evil is our destiny, evil is our goal. To bring balance back to the universe, good and evil keeping each other in check" and they pull out their Time Force Blasters and points them at Jen.
"You do realize I'm morphed" said Jen "that's not going to hurt me"
"But your students" said Hienz and they point their blasters at Vesper and Eddie. Jen knows they can't badly hurt Eddie, but they could destroy Vesper and she freezes. Marvin tosses his jacket at them, distracting them long enough for Jen to fire her Chrono Blaster and stun them and Jen start to lead them down the hall, when Marvin stops her
"Should we just leave them?" Marvin asked
"I'm going where she's going" said Eddie
"We need to get you to safety" said Jen
"We need weapons" said Marvin and they hear footsteps approaching
In the lobby, Jack handcuffs Chloe
"Really, Jack?" Chloe asked
"Hey you stole the ID card and tried to break in" said Jack "I've got my duty to do"
"Wouldn't you rather have donuts?" Chloe asked
"Won't Mom and Dad be pleased about this" said Jack and they see Dean Heinz and another Time Force officer point their Time Force Blasters at the Pink Time Force Ranger
"You think he didn't have his coffee this morning?" Chloe asked
"Chloe, I'm uncuffing you, looks like we've got a bigger problem" said Jack
"Let's do this" said Chloe and Jack runs at Dean Hienz with his Time Force Blaster. Before they get there, Jen shoots the Dean and the Officer. Jack and Chloe run up to Jen
"Professor Scotts" said Jack "long time no see"
"Wish it was under better circumstances" said Jen
"This is Chloe, my twin sister" said Jack "also apparently a thief and a burglar" and they notice the students "oh, no what have you guys done?"
"Is that my ID?" Marvin asked seeing his ID pinned to Chloe
"Uh, no?" Chloe asked
"Huh, so you didn't lose it this time" said Eddie
"Dean Hienz clearly forgot that I've already been glorified" said Jen "I couldn't betray Time Force and Zordon if I wanted to and I don't"
"Dean Hienz" said Jack "you are under arrest" and he handcuffs Dean Hienz and the other officer
"Let's lock those criminals up" said Chloe "real bad guys, doing real bad things"
"I haven't forgotten about you" said Jack
"Jack" said Jen "can you tell me what the Alliance is?"
"I don't know what the Alliance is Jen" said Jack "but I think we need to talk to Alex, Sky, and Cruger"
"We could ask the Dean" said Marvin and he tries to wake up the Dean but fails
"I think the Dean needs a little womanly persuasion" said Vesper and she does an open hand strike on him, waking him up
"What happened?" Hienz asked
"Dean" said Jack "we don't want to be rough, well maybe Vesper does, but we just want to know, what is the Alliance?"
"I don't know what you're talking about" said Hienz
"That's it!" said Jen and she pulls out her Time Force Badge that had been modified by SPD "Judgment Time! Dean Hienz you are under arrest for treason and conspiracy" and it flashes between Innocent and Guilty before landing on Guilty "Containment Mode!" and the Dean is imprisoned in a containment card "okay guys, I need you to go get Director Drake, Supreme Commander Cruger, and Commander Tate while I try to defend the students. Take this Containment Card to them as proof"
"I'm staying" said Jack "I'm not leaving you alone"
"Me neither" said Marvin
"I'm with Marv" said Eddie
"Me too" said Chloe
"I'm coming too" said Vesper
"Someone needs to go find the administrators" said Jen
"I'll go" said Abigail
"By yourself?" Jen asked
"Me and the rest of the students will go with her" said another student named Steve
"That'll work" said Jen and she hands Abigail the containment card and Abigail, Steve, and the other students leave. Jen leads Jack, Marvin, Vesper, Eddie, and Chloe down the hall, following the sounds of the explosions. They make their way to the hangar. As they get closer to the hangar, they can hear people cheering. As they enter the hangar, they see many Time Force Officers and Cadets cheering
"Evil is our cause and our cause is evil!" chanted the crowd. As they walk in they can see Putties, Z-Putties, Cogs, Quantrons, Cyclobots, Kelzaks, Kelzak Furies, Tyrannodrones, Krybots, Blue Head Krybots, and Orange Head Krybots filling the room. At the front of the room, they see a large being in a cloak walk out to the cheers of the crowd "All hail the Alliance Leader!"
"Jen Scotts!" said the Alliance Leader as he sees the Pink Ranger "come face me!"
"With pleasure" said Jen and the crowd parts as she rushes towards him. He blasts her with energy "you know you can't hurt me right? You on the other hand. V5!" and she blasts him, and he stumbles but remains standing. Jen and the Alliance Leader fight and he sends a massive blast towards her, knocking her out of her morph
"Professor Scotts!" said Marvin as he, Vesper, Eddie, Jack, and Chloe rush towards Jen
"I'm fine" said Jen "as I said he can't hurt me"
"It's over" said the Alliance Leader "you can't stop us from completing our mission"
"ENOUGH!" barked a voice and everyone turns to see Cruger, followed by Alex, Lucas, Trip, Katie, Jon, Sky, Kat, and Boom
"IT'S MORPHIN TIME!" said Alex "MASTODON!"
"TIME FOR TIME FORCE!" said Jen
"TIME BLUE!" said Lucas
"TIME PINK!" said Jen
"TIME GREEN!" said Trip
"TIME YELLOW!" said Katie
"DINO THUNDER, POWER UP!" said Cruger "BRACHIO!"
"TIME FOR SPD!" said Jon "SPD RED RANGER 1!"
"SPD EMERGENCY!" said Sky
"SPD ORANGE RANGER 0!" said Boom
"SPD KAT RANGER 99!" said Kat
"DEFENDER OF THE GALAXY!" said Sky "SPD SHADOW RANGER 100!"
"Power Axe!" said Alex
"SPD1!" said Jon
"V2!" said Lucas
"V3!" said Trip
"V4!" said Katie
"V5!" said Jen
"Brachio Staff!" said Cruger
"Shadow Saber!" said Sky
"Ocean Saber!" said Boom and they rushed at the Alliance Leader as the foot soldiers intervene.
"SPD VORTEX BLASTER!" said Jon and Jen and they combine SPD1 with V2-V5 "FIRE!" and a path is cleared through the foot soldiers as Sky manages to make his way to the Alliance Leader and they duel as more foot soldiers stop the other Rangers from joining him
"Your attack isn't going so well" said Sky "a good chunk of your foot soldiers are gone, I now have security camera footage of every traitor in our midst. Did you really think you could invade the Delta Base during the Millennial Kingdom?"
"No" said the Alliance Leader "I didn't. But that was never my plan" and then the hologram dropped revealing Sky had been fighting a Cog. He looks up and sees the Alliance Leader waving at him from a Time Force Ship which then took off through a portal
"No!" said Sky
"Did what I think just happen, happen?" Trip asked
"Yes" said Sky "we've been played. Officer Scotts, get those five out of here, we'll clean up the rest"
"Are you sure?" Jen asked "most of them haven't graduated yet, one of them doesn't even go here"
"Yes" said Sky "we have to round up these traitors before they scatter. Those five are ready, you know what to do"
"I'll get it from the lab" said Kat and she leaves. Jen leads Marvin, Vesper, Eddie, Jack, and Chloe to the next hangar, which had not been invaded.
"What just happened?" Marvin asked
"The Alliance Leader stole a Time Force Ship, a newer model than what we used back in our day" said Jen "it can portal anywhere in the universe undetected, untraceable, and can even stay in a pocket dimension out of reach. You must go after it, there's no time to lose" and then the Kat Ranger walks in carrying a briefcase and hands it to Jen "thanks, Dr. Manx" and Kat returns to the battle. Jen points to a ship "in that ship there's an android who can help you, give him this briefcase, he'll know what to do. You need to go after the Alliance Leader and portal after him"
"How can we do that?" Eddie asked "you just said the ship is untraceable and newer than the model you used"
"I said newer, I didn't say latest" said Jen "that's the one and only HyperForce Ship. It has all the same capabilities of the ship the Alliance Leader stole, but can additionally invade the pocket dimension of the Alliance Leader's ship, as well as have it's own pocket dimension, the Hyperstream, that nothing else can access. I'm counting on you to find the Alliance Leader"
"But how can we?" Chloe asked
"You'll know" said Jen "I'm counting on you to remember each and every thing I taught you. Now go!" And she hands Jack the briefcase and returns to the battle as Marvin, Vesper, Eddie, Jack, and Chloe enter the ship
"I hope to be half as cool as her some day" said Chloe
"You're just as cool" said Marvin
"Stop it!" said Chloe and she playfully slaps him
"It's amazing" said Eddie as he looks around the ship
"Nobody touch anything" said Jack as Chloe's touching everything in sight
"Chloe!" said Jack and they see an android
"Excuse me, robot" said Vesper "what's your name"
"I am Alpha 8" said the robot "Time Force Officers, how may I be of help?"
"It's an actual Alpha robot" said Eddie "I've read about these"
"Alpha 8" said Marvin "can you open this box?"
"One moment" said Alpha and he goes over to the console "Ay yi yi yi yi! There's an attack in Angel Grove"
"Guys" said Eddie "that's where several Ranger teams are from"
"Also many great construction companies" said Jack
"Now the case" said Alpha and he opens the case and Jack looks in it
"What is it?" Marvin asked
"I don't want to alarm you" said Jack "but it's Morphers"
Next time on Power Rangers Millennial Kingdom:
Marvin, Vesper, Eddie, Jack, Chloe, and Alpha 8 head to Angel Grove to defend it
