Title: Teamwork
Opening up at Sodor High School, all was as busy as ever for early into the school year. But, on the current day, it was surprisingly special. During lunch hour, Emily and Rosie had set up a small table near the main entrance, organizing a drive to clean up the environment outside the dumpsite. Thomas, Percy, and Toby each volunteered to assist them—Thomas was in charge of making signs, and Percy and Toby were in charge of handing out fliers.
"Stop the pollution of our neighborhood," said Emily helpfully.
"Sign a petition, help shut the dumpsite down," added Rosie kindly.
Various people, including students and staff, walking by either ignored the petition or decided to sign it.
"Come on, everyone! We can hardly stand the smell anymore," pressed Emily, as another student signed the petition, "Let me know if you care. Please sign up?"
"Hey, guys!" began Rosie, turning around, "How are we doing on those flyers?" She went from cheerful to dismayed, "Huh?"
As it turned out, Percy and Toby were having far more fun play-fighting with different bits of rubbish as weapons.
"Not now, Rosie, we're busy!" hushed Percy, as he blocked Toby's attack, "Ha ha! Prepare to face my wrath!"
"You don't stand a chance!" taunted Toby.
Rosie rolled her eyes, annoyed that Percy and Toby weren't handing out fliers. Over with Emily, she believed she was having better luck with Thomas.
"Hey, Thomas! How are those signs coming along?" smiled Emily. When she looked over, her positive attitude changed to negative, "Thomas?"
To her dismay, Thomas, seated at the table with his feet up, had fallen asleep on the job.
"Why am I not surprised?" grumbled Emily.
Before long, the school principal, Sir Topham Hatt, walked up to see how everything was going.
"Hi, sir!" Emily and Rosie greeted at the same time.
"This is wonderful! It's just dandy that you're trying to clean up the environment," admired Sir Topham Hatt, "But is the dumpsite as bad as you say?"
Emily and Rosie looked at each other for a moment, then back towards Sir Topham Hatt.
"You should see the place, sir," urged Emily, "It's an industrial waste disaster."
"I mean who could stand to pollute the Earth like that?" put in Rosie.
Sir Topham Hatt was about to speak up when he noticed Thomas asleep at the table, while Percy and Toby were continuing to play-fight with their bits of rubbish.
"Are they helping you both out?" The voice of Sir Topham Hatt pressed.
"They 'said' they would…" groaned Rosie.
"If only…" mused Emily.
(Rita's Palace)
Over at the Lunar Palace on the Moon, particularly onto the upper tower, Rita's ever shrill, cackling laughter was heard coming from inside the structure. On the balcony, Rita, still laughing, looked out from her Repulsascope.
"My pollution will ruin the whole planet!" gloated Rita, looking back in.
"Using their own pollution against them is a stroke of genius," praised Finster, as he approached the balcony railing and pounding it at the end, "Once my monster eliminates the Power Rangers, Earth is finished!"
Rita looked to the slight right while laughing deeply, standing at the balcony railing and facing the Earth and gesturing a lot.
(Sodor High School)
A little later, Rosie and Emily were inside and, joined by Mavis Drewry of the Smelters House, walking down the hallway towards the cafeteria, hoping to get a few more signatures before the bell rang. Mavis had short blonde hair that reached her upper shoulders, and light-purple eyes. Her uniform was also customized to her; a black blazer with yellow details, a yellow button-up undershirt, a yellow skirt with a black stripe, yellow tight socks, simple black shoes, and a black and yellow striped tie.
"Sign a petition, help clean up the dumpsite," offered Emily.
"Our environment can be neat and tidy with your help," proclaimed Mavis.
"We can live in a cleaner environment," promised Rosie, "Fight pollution!" As she urged for more people to sign the petition, some people were walking by, "Come on, save our Earth."
Some of the students walking down the hallway were Henry, Gordon, James, and Edward Stewart, another member of the Tidmouth House. Henry was dressed in a dark green blazer with red and yellow details, a light gray button-up undershirt, black pants, dark green socks, simple black shoes and a dark green and white tie with red details. Gordon's uniform was a blue blazer with red and yellow details, a light gray button-up undershirt, black pants, blue socks, simple black shoes and a blue and light gray tie with red details. James wore a bright red blazer with black and yellow details, a black button-up undershirt, gray pants, bright red socks, simple black shoes and a bright red and black tie. Edward was about the same height as James, and sported light blue hair that was slightly darker than Thomas and matching blue eyes. His uniform consisted of a dark blue blazer with red and yellow details, a white button-up undershirt, black pants, dark blue socks, simple black shoes and a dark blue and white tie with red details. He also wore a pair of dark blue trimmed glasses.
"Hey, ladies. What's up?" greeted James.
"Hey, guys," rejoiced Rosie.
"Boy, this is interesting," remarked Henry, looking around and seeing a lot of people gathering around, "Looks like you're attracting quite the crowd."
"What's this for? A campaign of some kind?" asked Edward.
"We're going to deliver these petitions to the dumpsite owners today," explained Emily.
James grinned, "Cool."
"Good idea," praised Edward.
"Not bad," admired Gordon.
"Yeah, maybe we can convince them to clean up the mess," prayed Rosie, before getting an idea, "You guys want to sign?"
"Yeah, sure," accepted James, taking the petition.
"I know I will, given my love for nature," agreed Henry, also signing the petition.
As soon as Edward signed the petition, he handed it back to the two girls.
"Many thanks," accepted Rosie.
It was then Thomas, Percy, and Toby showed up.
"Hey, girls, sorry about earlier," apologized Thomas sheepishly, "I don't know what came over me, falling asleep on the job."
"Same with us," finished Toby, with Percy rubbing the back of his head.
"But at least we finished our job," insisted Percy.
"Is that so?" frowned Rosie, making the guys a little worried. Luckily, that was unfounded as she smiled once more, "In that case, we forgive you."
"H-Hi, Toby," peeped Mavis, speaking with shyness around Toby.
"H-Hello to you t-too, Mavis," stammered Toby, who was blushing and also feeling shy towards Mavis.
They both turn away from each other shyly. Thomas and Percy both noticed this and winked at each other. It was then Emily got an idea.
"Hey, you know, you should come with us this afternoon," suggested Emily.
The six boys looked at each other, apparently uneasy about it.
"I'd love to, but I have a karate class that I have to teach later," declined Thomas, as Emily and Rosie raised an eyebrow, "I mean, I know it's for a great cause," He remained apologetic-looking, "But I just can't bug out on my students."
Emily was surprised, "Since when are you teaching karate?"
"Since last week," admitted Thomas.
"Edward is president of the Science Fair Committee and I've just joined as a new member and today's our first meeting, so we're staying after school," Toby said grimly.
Rosie and Emily were rather displeased, but Mavis wasn't because she thought it was cool that Toby was taking an interest in science.
"Hey, congrats on joining that committee, Toby," encouraged Mavis.
Toby merely blushed bashfully in response.
"James, Henry, and I are going to the Youth Center to work out," stated Gordon, as James shrugged, "Sorry."
"Uh, I'd love to, ladies, but Alpha said he has something to talk to me about, right away," concluded Percy, making his excuse, "I promised to meet him, sorry."
"Who the heck is Alpha?" quizzed James.
Percy gasped when James asked that, with Gordon, Henry, Edward, and Mavis all looking curious as well. It was then Percy realized that he just mentioned Alpha's name out loud.
"Uh-oh! I just said something I shouldn't have!" thought Percy, before getting all fearful, "Oh! He's… um…"
"His dog!" Thomas jumped in.
"Eh? Percy has a dog? A dog that could talk?" puzzled Mavis, looking at Emily for a moment before looking back, "No one ever told me that."
"I have a dog, Thomas?" pondered Percy stupidly, before Toby elbowed him in the side and he immediately understood what this was all about, "Oof! I-I mean…yeah! I…just got one, yesterday!"
He laughed nervously while Mavis, James, Gordon, Henry, and Edward all gave him a confused stare, before the first turned to face her two best friends.
"Sorry, girls… I'd go with you, too, but my Mother wants me to babysit Bill and Ben today after school," sighed Mavis dejectedly.
"It's okay, Mavis; you have something important you need to do, and that's alright," Emily smiled reassuringly, "Rosie and I will go alone, but it would still be a lot more impressive if we went like a team."
"Say, Mavis, isn't your mother dating Bill and Ben's Father right now?" recalled Gordon curiously.
Mavis nodded, "Yeah," she confirmed, "Why do you ask?"
"Well, wouldn't that make you like their older sister or something?" chuckled Gordon.
"You mean stepsister. To an extent, yes, it would," replied Mavis. Shaking her head, she changed the subject, "Anyway, thanks so much for signing the petition."
"No prob," beamed James.
"Well, we're off," commented Thomas, as Emily waved goodbye, "We'll see you later."
"Good luck with your petition," The voice of Percy advised, as Rosie looked happy.
The male Tidmouth Teens, except for Edward, walked away, leaving Emily, Rosie, and Mavis behind.
"If I may, I'd like to pass a few words of advice before I go," advised Edward.
Before the girls could respond, there was a loud burping sound. Sure enough, walking up was Diesel with Dennis, Arry, and Bert by his side. In Diesel's hand was an empty can of juice he drank.
"Hey, Miss Earth," snorted Diesel, much to the discomfort of Emily, Rosie, and Mavis. He then dropped the can on the ground on purpose, "Come and recycle that."
"Ugh! Get a life, Diesel," insulted Rosie.
"And you should pick that up and recycle it yourself!" put in Mavis hotly.
"Oooh, I'm so scared of you," shivered Diesel mockingly.
"Hey!" cut in Arry, as he and Bert crushed the cans they were carrying, "Why don't you take these with you to the dump, Miss Clean?"
They chucked the cans directly at Emily and Rosie, just barely missing them and hitting the lockers behind them instead. The school bullies began laughing at them. A green-haired boy by the name of Oliver Collett then walked up and picked up the can that Diesel dropped and tossed it into the recycling can. But that action made Diesel cross.
"Hey, geek!" huffed Diesel, as Arry, Bert, and Dennis each grabbed Oliver, while he then picked up the recycling can, "Stay out of this."
Diesel then dumped the contents of the can all over poor Oliver as his gang laughed at the (in their POV) hilarious sight, which angered the girls considerably.
"Okay, that does it, you are way out of line this time!" shouted Mavis.
Arry and Bert smirked, with the latter nudging at Diesel, wordlessly wanting him to teach Emily, Rosie, and Mavis a little lesson. Understanding the request, Diesel placed the recycling can on the floor, and Dennis kicked it towards Rosie—who expertly somersaulted over it.
"Hmph!" oiled Diesel, unimpressed, "Always knew you'd 'flip' for me."
"Look, you guys may not see it, but it's important that we recycle and help the world," countered Rosie, as Dennis happily took out a popsicle, "Let me show you a little something."
She shoved the whole popsicle into Dennis' mouth, clamping his jaw shut, swiftly yanking out the stick, and depositing it in the appropriate receptacle before brushing her hands over a job well done. Sure enough, Dennis started screaming before running away with brain freeze (again), with Diesel, Arry, and Bert each chasing after him while some students, including Emily, Rosie, and Mavis, laughed at the sight.
"Well, it looks like time to take out the trash," joked Emily.
"And deliver these petitions," finished Rosie.
"I wish you the best of luck with that," encouraged Mavis.
The bell chose to ring at that moment.
(Knapford Dumpsite)
Later after school, Rita was busy looking through the dumpsite using her Repulsascope, eager to see what it looked like and more.
"Oh, this is sweet. Rosie and Emily are about to walk into my waste dump!" The voice of Rita boasted.
(Rita's Palace)
On the balcony of the Lunar Palace, Rita looked in and out of her Repulsascope while smiling, as Squatt grew excited and Baboo spoke, while a silent Goldar looked on.
"Oh, it's perfect, those girls don't stand a chance," sneered Rita.
"But if those girls find out it's your plant, won't that ruin your plan?" protested Baboo.
He and Squatt appeared surprised for some reason, looked at each other briefly, then nodded at what they saw.
"You numbskull!" scolded Squatt.
"You don't have to get personal," argued Baboo.
"We'll ambush them with Putties and then finish them off with a monster before their friends can help," advised Goldar, motioning his left hand three times as he did.
"Right, we can't lose this one!" laughed Rita, happily talking to Goldar while still behind the Repulsascope and Squatt fidgeted a bit, "Prepare the Putties, they've got work to do!"
(Knapford Dumpsite)
Before long, school ended for the day, and Emily and Rosie made their way to the site to deliver the petition to someone there. It looked like it was nearly abandoned.
"You know, I'm feeling rather down," admitted Rosie.
"What makes you say that?" pondered Emily.
Rosie folded her arms, "It's the guys," she pouted, "Although they signed the petition, they didn't bother coming with us."
"I know what you mean," acknowledged Emily, "It makes me think they don't really give a rat's behind about recycling and keeping the environment safe," She relaxed both hands behind her head, "Alas, not everyone in the world is a believer in climate change, so whatcha gonna do?"
As the girls walked through the area, trying to find the man in-charge of the place, Rosie found herself looking down at her shoes after accidentally stepping in something which disgusted her.
"Ugh, this is gross," winced Rosie.
"Hey, what do you suppose that stuff is?" urged Emily, seeing something in a nearby barrel.
"I don't think I want to know," frowned Rosie. As she and Emily continued exploring the place, they never found anyone, "Well, it doesn't look like there is anyone here we can give these petitions to."
"Yet why does it feel like we're being watched?" fretted Emily.
As soon as those words were said, three Putties flip across the sky and land near Emily and Rosie, motioning their arms in a menacing fashion—and they were then joined by a few more Putties appearing out of thin air.
"We've got company!" cried Rosie.
"Hyah!" exclaimed Emily, getting into a fighting stance.
The two of them then separated and began to fight the Putties off. First, Rosie was shown running up some steps, before turning to face one of them getting near her face.
"Hello," uttered Rosie sarcastically.
She tried putting her petition form in front of her face, only for the Putty to rudely knock it out of her hands. Making sure she would go and pick it up when the fighting was done, Rosie kicked the Putty twice, knocking it down the steps, and then she ran up some more stairs near one of the dumpsite's tanks. Meanwhile, Emily struck one Putty in the shoulder with a karate chop with a loud cry, then kicked a second, who grabbed her leg and spun her around, but she then made another Putty punch it by accident, knocking them both away. She then karate chopped two in the chest, with her back to them.
"Phew," panted Emily.
Rosie carried on up the stairs, only for a Putty to grab hold of her, and she elbowed it twice to make it fall off the stairs into a pile of boxes. She then kicked a second, followed by a third, which she kicked twice, knocking it onto another large pile of boxes. The effort left Rosie a little winded. Emily continued to karate chop her opponents, hitting one in the face three times and then hit one with her knee in the chest—and she did while being watched by Rita through her Repulsascope.
(Rita's Palace)
On the balcony of the Lunar Palace, Rita glanced out from the Repulsascope.
"Grr… Good, they're fighting," grunted Rita, making an arm gesture or two before finally looking back into the telescope, "Now all we have to do is send a monster!"
In the background, as they heard their boss speak, Baboo slapped Squatt, Goldar stood in his spot, all mainly looking Earthward.
(Command Center)
Outside the Command Center, Percy could be heard talking to Alpha about something.
"That's why you brought me here, Alpha?" The voice of Percy questioned.
Inside the main area, Percy was standing in-front of Alpha, who nodded carefully.
"Check it out," advised Percy.
"I'm watching," reassured Alpha.
As Percy turned on a boombox he brought, music started blaring in the area as he began dancing skillfully, moving his arms and legs to the rhythm. Alpha watched with admiration, never knowing that Percy was so good at dancing—Percy continued to show off such good dance skills, including getting down on the floor and doing some leg kicks before getting up as the music finally stopped.
"See?" grinned Percy, approaching Alpha one more time, "That's what it's all about. You get me?"
"I sure do," said Alpha happily.
Too bad the good mood atmosphere came to an end when the Command Center's alarm started blaring, and Zordon knew what that meant.
"Percy, Alpha, the girls are in trouble," The voice of Zordon announced.
Percy and Alpha approached the Viewing Globe and saw it was true. On the Viewing Globe, it showed footage of Emily and Rosie still fighting Putties at the dumpsite.
"The Putties have them outnumbered!" The voice of Percy exclaimed.
"Oh no! Ay-yi-yi-yi-yi! Dudettes in trouble, dudettes in trouble!" shrieked Alpha in panic, before he and Percy looked towards Zordon for guidance, "What are we going to do?"
"Bring the rest of the team here," commanded Zordon, looking left and right while speaking, "We need to let them know."
(Youth Center)
Inside the Youth Center, Thomas had just finished up with teaching his karate class, while Toby had arrived after having the meeting at school, while Gordon, Henry, and James were very busy with their workout. When Thomas was all done cleaning up at the showers, he and Toby were ready to leave for home when their communicators started beeping.
"Trouble?" worried Toby.
"Over there," offered Thomas, pointing to a clearing nearby.
They both went over to an unoccupied section of the gym. Seeing it was safe enough, they spoke into the communicators.
"We read you, Zordon," began Thomas.
"Thomas, you Toby must teleport here immediately," The voice of Zordon spoke grimly, "It's urgent!"
"We're on our way," Toby responded.
Activating their communicators, the two Sudrian teenagers turned into beams of colored light (Thomas: Red, Toby: Blue) and they ascended right out of the Youth Center.
(Command Center)
Back at the Command Center's interior, Alpha and Percy were pacing around waiting for Thomas and Toby to show up. Sure enough, they both teleported in.
"What's up?" quizzed Toby.
"Rosie and Emily are in trouble," The voice of Zordon responded firmly.
"Hey, fellas, take a look for yourselves!" exclaimed Percy.
Thomas and Toby turned around and, along with Percy, observed the Viewing Globe. There, they saw Emily and Rosie fighting Putties still, and one of them even had lifted Rosie by the throat, choking her. Two had managed to get their arms around Emily.
"We got to help them!" The voice of Thomas insisted.
"Let me…go!" The image of Rosie gagged.
(Rita's Palace)
Back at the palace, Rita walked into the workshop and approached Finster with a smile as he worked on a clay model of Mighty Minotaur.
"Finster, it's time!" ordered Rita, "Is the monster ready?"
"Yes, Evil One," answered Finster, presenting the model of the monster, "The Minotaur you asked for is nearly complete. There, done."
Once the model was inside the Monster-Matic, he grabbed the lever and pulled it down then back up, causing the Monster-Matic's exhaust pipe to begin spewing smoke. A pleased Rita smiled, then turned to the left and laughed wickedly. As the machine rumbled, pipe spewing smoke, something was moving towards the shaking exit tube. Pretty soon, the Monster-Matic's output tube spewed out sparks as Rita and Finster watched, pouring so much smoke that the newly created monster could not be seen. Even so, Rita knew Mighty Minotaur was there, and so, she zapped Earth with a pinkish beam, striking the middle of the United Kingdom.
(Ffarquhar Quarry)
The pink beam struck somewhere in the quarry, but luckily far enough from the Command Center. Mighty Minotaur rose up from the dust on his landing spot, armed with a mace, and capable of defending himself with a shield.
(Command Center)
Back in the Command Center…
"There is no time to lose," warned Zordon, as Thomas, Percy, and Toby each prepared to morph, "Get to the dump site immediately. Wait, Rita has sent down a monster!" The three teenagers turned to watch the Viewing Globe as they listened to their instructions, "You'd better deal with him first. I'll monitor the girls from here."
The Viewing Globe showed footage of Mighty Minotaur breathing fire and preparing to strike something with his mace.
"It's a menacing minotaur!" gulped Toby.
"A minotaur?" blinked Percy.
"From Greek Mythology, a minotaur usually lives in a maze-" Toby began to go into an explanation, but soon was cut off.
"Save the history talk for later," advised Thomas, as he, being the leader, took command of the team as they prepared to head into battle, "It's Morphin Time!"
(Morphing sequence)
A stylized lightning bolt struck in front of a purple circle, behind was a black background. Crackling around the lightning bolt and circle were blue energy bolts (with some yellow and pink also present). The morphing sequence was as followed; each teenager was seen holding out his/her open Power Morpher inside the image of a giant open Power Morpher, with the teenager being surrounded by Ranger-colored electricity shown within what would have been the Morpher's red inside area.
"Mastodon!" called Percy.
"Triceratops!" called Toby.
"Tyrannosaurus!" called Thomas.
After the morphing calls ended, it zoomed in on Thomas' face, over which appeared to be a fiery red grid; the grid split vertically to reveal the Red Ranger helmet, then it faded into white with a negative color effect.
(End morph)
At the quarry, Red Ranger, Blue Ranger, and Black Rangers posed.
"Power Rangers!" Thomas, Percy, and Toby declared at the same time.
Blue Ranger and Black Ranger stepped forward and leapt simultaneously, going into aerial kicks as their feet struck Mighty Minotaur's shield and the monster smacked them back the way they came with said shield. Blue Ranger and Black Ranger landed on the ground in a daze; Red Ranger rushed between them, faced the monster, and went for his holster as the pair recovered.
"This guy is tough," figured Thomas, grabbing his holster and pulling out his Blade Blaster while reconfiguring it into Blaster mode, "I'll get him with my Blade Blaster!"
Now armed, Red Ranger fired his Blade Blaster at Mighty Minotaur, but the red beams bounced off his shield and back at the trio, causing explosions as they flung about by spark bursts around them.
(Knapford Dumpsite)
Back at the dumpsite, the girls had now broken free of the Putties that had grabbed them and regrouped by the empty cans.
"Are you alright?" asked Emily.
"I'm fine," coughed Rosie, rubbing her neck due to still reeling a little bit from being choked, "You think we got them all?"
Emily looked nearby and became deeply alarmed. When Rosie saw how worried her friend was looking, she looked in the same direction and was nervous.
"Oh…" acknowledged Rosie absentmindedly.
Two more Putties were shown emerging from behind a building, about to avenge their fallen comrades. The girls were tired out from fighting the Putties, and they needed a plan to get rid of the remaining ones. Luckily, Emily had one when she looked behind Rosie and spotted something they could use.
"Rosie, look!" requested Emily, as Rosie looked and found two empty cans, "We can use those!"
A grinning Rosie liked the idea, turning to face the remaining Putties along with Emily.
"Come on, clay boys!" dared Rosie, as the two Putties came forward, "Come and get us!"
When the Putties got close enough, Emily hit one in the chest, while Rosie kicked another in the side. Then, when their respective Putties tried retaliating, Emily chopped hers in the back, while Rosie grabbed hers by the arm and pulled it over, causing them to fall into the empty cans. The two Putties were stuck with hardly a way out of them.
"Well, that's that," smirked Emily, brushing her hands together.
"Think again!" The voice of Goldar responded.
Nearby, Goldar materialized from a burst of fire, bringing with him more Putties.
"Aw, give me a break!" bemoaned Rosie.
"Hey, we beat him once before, and we can do it again!" Emily said confidently.
(Command Center)
Back at the Command Center, the alarm could be heard blaring from inside the complex. Inside, Alpha and Zordon were watching the Viewing Globe, which displayed footage of Goldar lowering his left hand and raising his sword in right, preparing to hit something.
"Ai-yi -yi! More trouble on the way, Zordon!" The voice of Alpha wailed, while the image of Goldar snarled.
"This is a dangerous turn of events, Alpha," The voice of Zordon acknowledged, as he was shown talking to his upper left, "Contact the girls, tell them to morph and try to hook up with the others. Working as a team is their only hope now.
(Knapford Dumpsite)
Back at the dumpsite, Emily and Rosie faced Goldar as they silently summoned their Power Morphers.
(Morphing sequence)
A stylized lightning bolt struck in front of a purple circle, behind was a black background. Crackling around the lightning bolt and circle were blue energy bolts (with some yellow and pink also present). The morphing sequence was as followed; each teenager was seen holding out his/her open Power Morpher inside the image of a giant open Power Morpher, with the teenager being surrounded by Ranger-colored electricity shown within what would have been the Morpher's red inside area.
"Pterodactyl!" called Rosie.
"Sabertooth Tiger!" called Emily.
(End morph)
Yellow Ranger and Pink Ranger soared skyward together, and they landed in another part of the dumpsite as they posed for a battle.
"Power Rangers!" Rosie and Emily declared at the same time.
From there, more Putties were showing up; one Putty leaped out of a barren tree, a pair of Putties lunged from the bushes, another tree-bounding Putty, and four Putties scrambled out of the brush.
"Get them!" ordered Goldar, spreading his arms as three Putties leap over him into action, "Destroy them!"
Yellow Ranger, surrounded by Putties, ducked under one's kick, swung around and kicked it away, then flipped back when two tried to strike, locking her feet around Putty's head, then rapidly kicking at his face, before locking again, allowing her to flip the Putty away as she returned to her feet, blocked another's attack and flung it aside, just as Pink Ranger was shown fighting her own group of Putties, flipping gracefully and chopping into them like nobody's business. As Pink Ranger rushed for another Putty, Yellow Ranger was seen backflipping away from Goldar in the distance, and Goldar then raised his sword above his head as though he intended to strike.
"You're all mine!" roared Goldar.
Both Pink Ranger and Yellow Ranger responded by bringing their feet together as they leaped up at the same time.
"Oh yeah?" responded Emily, as she and Pink Ranger backflipped through the air with Blade Blasters in hand, the sun shining brightly, "You'll have to catch us first!"
"A pleasure," grinned Goldar, swinging his left hand about.
On cue, three more Putties flip across the sky into battle. Yellow Ranger, as she reached out on sand, was suddenly besieged by Putties.
"Rosie, look out!" called Emily.
Yellow Ranger backflipped away before taking one Putty down, then preparing to face another. Goldar, fighting Pink Ranger, slashed his sword at Pink Ranger, who got sparkly slashed in her chest and rolled on the ground. Before Goldar could keep up the pressure, Yellow Ranger leaped in and grabbed him from behind.
"Hurry, Rosie!" pressed Emily, "Call for the others!"
"Right!" nodded Rosie, getting up off the dirt and running off.
Angered at being interrupted, Goldar slashed Yellow Ranger twice in the chest, sparkly, until she fell down, rolling onto the dirt, but got up a little as Goldar slowly approached, sword drawn, but Yellow Ranger, with a smoking chest wound, gestured her arms out, then hopped up, leaping up and forth with her legs crossed. She struck Goldar in the neck as she leaped by from behind, causing Goldar to hit the dirt, rolling.
(Command Center)
In the Command Center, Alpha and Zordon were watching the Viewing Globe, which showed footage of Mighty Minotaur fighting in close combat with Black Ranger, Blue Ranger, and Red Ranger, then if shifted to footage of Goldar, fighting Pink Ranger, slashing his sword at Pink Ranger, who got sparkly slashed in her chest and rolled on the ground.
"Ay-yi-yi-yi-yi! The Power Rangers still have their hands full!" panicked Alpha.
"Yes. This is the toughest situation they have faced yet," admitted Zordon, as he was talking to the far left then moved his head to be facing more of the center left, "Perhaps the time has come for me to reveal to them the ancient secrets of the Power Weapons."
(Ffarquhar Quarry)
Back at the quarry, Mighty Minotaur whipped his mace around and prepared to strike. Sure enough, he smashed Red Ranger in the chest, sparkly, with the weapon and then turned to do the same to Black Ranger, before spinning with mace and sparkly striking Blue Ranger. Mighty Minotaur then used his shield to block a kick by Black Ranger before smashing him sparkly again, and then turning to face and smash Red Ranger in his chest, sparkly, yet again and caused him to roll to the ground, just as Black Ranger and Blue Ranger rushed to his side, and as he recovered, all three are pelted by boulders from above.
"Look out!" cried Thomas.
Squatt and Baboo were shown tossing boulders over the side of a cliff, causing Blue Ranger, Red Ranger, and Black Ranger to get rocks rained upon them until they staggered away.
(Rita's Palace)
On the balcony of the Lunar Palace, Rita, up close to the railing, tossed her scepter over the side to the right, everything went slow as she threw it.
"You're finished!" screeched Rita.
(Space to Earth)
Rita's scepter soared to Earth through outer space, where it passed through the atmosphere staked into the dirt. From there, it unleashed energy from its center orb, and energy rippled into the ground beneath causing a quake to ensue while smoke billowed from the big fault in the ground. Fire was even spewing up within the Earth until it smoldered, with smoke flowing skyward through the ridge at top. Mighty Minotaur suddenly rose up as a giant amid dying smoke.
(Ffarquhar Quarry)
Blue Ranger, Red Ranger, and Black Ranger scrambled as the giant Mighty Minotaur stood above them, while Squatt and Baboo watched on the cliffside, taunting and clapping along.
"You're in for it now!" mocked Baboo.
Mighty Minotaur stomped his hooves directly towards the much smaller Rangers as he stepped towards them, forcing them to get out of the way.
"Oh man!" flailed Thomas.
"Watch out!" yelled Toby.
"Zoinks!" yelped Percy.
Minotaur tramped along in the background, while in the foreground, Yellow Ranger protected Pink Ranger from the Putties.
"Oh, what's that?" gasped Emily.
"Gee, it's only a giant Minotaur monster," Rosie uttered sarcastically, before raising her voice, "What do you think it is?!"
(Ffarquhar Quarry)
Meanwhile, at the quarry, Red Ranger was able to get enough time to talk to the girls of the team.
"Rosie, Emily, we kinda got our hands full here!" reported Thomas, speaking into his communicator, "Call up your Zords and help us put this dude down!"
(Knapford Dumpsite)
At the dumpsite, Yellow Ranger and Pink Ranger, also managing to find the time, were able to speak to Thomas.
"Right, we're on our way!" obeyed Emily, speaking through her communicator.
"What about Goldar?" reminded Rosie.
"We'll take care of him and the Putties, too," replied Emily.
(Ffarquhar Quarry)
At last, Red Ranger gestured to the sky with right arm, then lowered it.
"Come forth, Tyrannosaurus Dinozord!" commanded Thomas.
From the middle of nowhere, the nearby ground began breaking open to reveal bursting flames from within a fault line. A crack in the ground then spread open, releasing a fireball from within the crack. It was then the head of the Tyrannosaurus Dinozord slowly rose from the molten red ground, followed by its upper body, and finally it was followed by its lower body. Finally, the Tyrannosaurus rose up from above the fiery molten pit before straightening up amid flames and smoke. Not about to let his best friend get all of the fun, Black Ranger raised his right arm skyward, then down, nodding a lot.
"Come forth, Mastodon Dinozord!" commanded Percy.
The Mastodon Dinozord was seen surfacing from its icy domain, where it exhaled an icy breath from its trunk, and its foot pounded down into the misty snow. The Mastodon then started to stomp through the snow. Blue Ranger then raised his right arm into the sky.
"Come forth, Triceratops Dinozord!" commanded Toby.
The Triceratops Dinozord appeared within the sands of the desert. Its wheels passed through the desert sands as it continued to drive through the desert, approaching from a distance. Soon enough, the Triceratops raised its head and opened its mouth to roar while driving through the dusty terrain.
(Knapford Dumpsite)
Back at the dumpsite, Yellow Ranger was getting flanked by Putties while raising right arm to the sky.
"Whoa!" exclaimed Emily, avoiding a few Putties before getting the call right, "Come forth, Sabertooth Tiger Dinozord!"
The feet and legs of a Zord-like machine were shown dashing forth—which were from the Sabertooth Tiger Dinozord, which was shown sprinting through the jungle. It then opened its mouth and let out a mighty roar. The Sabertooth Tiger then leaped out of the greenery, soaring through the sky where it let out an even louder roar. It soon started running through the air, hitting the ground and then kept racing along the horizon while continuing to dash forth amid the mist. And finally, Pink Ranger, while getting flanked by Putties, raised her right arm into the sky before crossing it across her chest.
"Come forth, Pterodactyl Dinozord!" commanded Rosie.
A nearby volcano started to erupt. Inside, the Pterodactyl Dinozord soared upwards amid lava lights before flying straight out of the now-active volcano. It raised and lowered its head while continuing to fly amid molten lava lights. The Pterodactyl finally flew away from the smoking volcano and headed towards the trees. Mighty Minotaur kept walking until he looked up at approaching Zords. Blue Ranger, Red Ranger, and Black Ranger turned around and looked up, seeing the five Dinozords racing along towards the fight on the moving horizon, and Mighty Minotaur was taken aback by what he saw approaching. The Rangers, meanwhile, were the only ones not taken aback since they called upon the Zords in the first place.
"Let's do it!" requested Thomas, looking to the left while gesturing fist, then leaping up.
"I'm with you!" put in Percy, looking to the left while reaching arm out, then leaping up.
"Right" finished Toby, looking to the right while gesturing fist, then leaping up.
Red Ranger leaped up into the sky, followed by Blue Ranger and Black Ranger both leaping up into the sky, and followed by Yellow Ranger and Pink Ranger both leaping up into the sky. Red Ranger dropped into the shaky cockpit of the Tyrannosaurus Dinozord with fist up briefly.
"Thomas here!" announced Thomas, as the control console of the Tyrannosaurus lit up when he pressed the palm buttons, "Everyone report in!"
Black Ranger dropped into the cockpit of the Mastodon Dinozord, and he gestured an arm.
"This is Percy!" seconded Percy, as the control console of the Mastodon lit up when he pressed the palm buttons, "I'm all logged in!"
Blue Ranger dropped into the cockpit of the Triceratops Dinozord, and he gestured with both arms.
"Toby here!" added Toby, as the control console of the Triceratops lit up when he pressed the palm buttons, "Let's send this minotaur back to his maze!"
Yellow Ranger dropped into the cockpit of the Sabertooth Tiger Dinozord, and she gestured with both arms.
"This is Emily!" declared Emily, as the control console of the Sabertooth Tiger lit up when she pressed the palm buttons, "I'm always with you guys!"
Pink Ranger dropped into the cockpit of the Pterodactyl Dinozord, and she gestured an arm.
"Rosie here!" finished Rosie, as the control console of the Pterodactyl lit up when she pressed the palm buttons, "Let me handle Goldar!"
The five Dinozords raced along the horizon together. Minotaur's hooves scraped the right against the ground like an angry bull, then he charged forth to fight, readying his weapons. While that was going on, the Pterodactyl flew away from the other Zords, then turned to the right as Goldar and the Putties appeared scared as they looked upward—only for the Pterodactyl to fire blue electricity from its wings while strafing. Four bursting explosions managed to take out the six Putties, leaving Goldar enraged as he ran out of the smoke with his sword still out.
"Curse you, Power Rangers!" Goldar snarled, as he faded away.
The Triceratops drove through the desert, approaching from the distance as it raised its head and opened its mouth a couple of times while driving through the dusty terrain. Mighty Minotaur rushed forth past a pair of mountains while whipping his weapons around. In the shaky Triceratops cockpit, Blue Ranger gestured his left arm back then forth.
"Activating weapons system!" announced Toby.
On cue, the Triceratops folded up its tail and fired from the cannons on the folded up tail, doing so a couple of times while approaching from the desert distance. Mighty Minotaur was then struck by sparkly blasts in his chest. The Sabertooth Tiger dashed amid mist, folding up its own tail. Mighty Minotaur appeared visibly shaken by what he saw approaching, and, sure enough, the Sabertooth Tiger fired yellow beams from its folded up tail. Mighty Minotaur was sparkly burst twice in the chest, so he leaned forward and fired a hornbeam in retaliation—however, Sabertooth Tiger leaped over the cliffside while narrowly avoiding explosion. Angrily, Mighty Minotaur straightened up and looked upward at what was approaching, reacting negatively to it. The Sabertooth Tiger opened its mouth and was shown leaping at Mighty Minotaur, bashing sparkly into him in midair while passing by. In the shaky Mastodon cockpit, Black Ranger raised his left fist and nodded.
"Let me chill this guy out!" offered Percy, before grabbing the controls.
The Mastodon began to exhale an icy breath from its trunk, and the Mighty Minotaur was covered by icy mist, blocking it with his shield, but that caused the shield to begin frosting over amid icy mist. The Mastodon exhaled more of its icy breath, but without mist already around it, and Mighty Minotaur was forced to drop his shield, icy mist ceasing as he pressed on past it. In the shaky Triceratops cockpit, Blue Ranger made a fist with his right hand then grabbed the controls with his left hand.
"I'll get him," reassured Toby.
The Triceratops fired off both of its horns, one at a time and with chains, shooting through the air until Mighty Minotaur's horns got snagged. In the Triceratops cockpit, Blue Ranger grabbed the controls and braced hold of them.
"Power hooks are locked on!" whooped Toby triumphantly.
However, it wasn't as easy as he was hoping it would be; Mighty Minotaur grabbed the horn-snared chains and pulled, with the Triceratops in the foreground providing resistance on the other end of the chains. In the Triceratops cockpit, Blue Ranger kept grabbing the controls, then looked sharply up and to the left.
"They're not holding!" exclaimed Toby, as he watched Mighty Minotaur struggling outside the window, "I'm increasing power!" He then pulls back control with his left hand, putting his full strength into it, "Now!"
The Triceratops started moving in reverse, causing the horn-chained Minotaur to be pulled over onto his face.
(Rita's Palace)
Back on the balcony of the Lunar Palace, Rita looked out from the Repulsascope, seemingly emotionless but deadly serious, while Goldar, Squatt, and Baboo were watching her as she stepped out to the right.
"What's this?" yelled Rita angrily, "He can't be defeated now! We're too close!"
(Ffarquhar Quarry)
Suddenly, Mighty Minotaur started fighting back for real as he leaped forward in midair with arms stretched forth, and the Tyrannosaurus got smashed sparkly in the chest by the monster's horns, causing the Dinozord to take a tumble in the foreground, while Mighty Minotaur stood victorious in the back. However, the Tyrannosaurus' tail slapped against the ground, kicking up dust as it twirled back onto its feet as Mighty Minotaur stood in the foreground facing it. Mighty Minotaur then leaned forward and fired another hornbeam, as, while it approached, the Tyrannosaurus was struck by sparks and explosions. In the Tyrannosaurus cockpit, it began bursting with sparks and rocking about, jolting Red Ranger about.
"Whoa!" yelled Thomas painfully.
The Tyrannosaurus continued to spark and burst before getting pushed back and collapsing on the ground, shaking the area profusely.
(Command Center)
In the Command Center, the Viewing Globe was showing footage of Mighty Minotaur firing hornbeam, as, while it approached, the Tyrannosaurus was struck by sparks and explosions. It continued to spark and burst before getting pushed back and collapsing on the ground, shaking the area profusely.
"Zordon, he's coming no matter what they do!" The voice of Alpha was wailing, while he looked like he was panicking, The Zords aren't fairing well against him! They don't stand a chance like this!"
"I'm afraid you're right, Alpha," acknowledged Zordon, before issuing a command to the Rangers, "Power Rangers, return to the Command Center immediately for new instructions!"
(Ffarquhar Quarry)
Back at the quarry, Mighty Minotaur and the Tyrannosaurus passed each other, sparkly striking each other. Mighty Minotaur tried a backhand, but the Dinozord ducked under it and sparkly smacked the enemy monster in his chest, only to get sparkly kicked in response. In the Tyrannosaurus cockpit, Red Ranger had heard the command from Zordon and responded by raising his right fist.
"Right, let's go, guys!" ordered Thomas.
He started to turn into red energy and left his Zord. The screen split into four squares (clockwise from top left) as each Ranger in their respective cockpits gave their response.
"Right!" Percy, Toby, Rosie, and Emily all agreed.
Percy (Black), Toby (Blue), Rosie (Pink), and Emily (Yellow) all turned into colored energy and left their Zords.
(Rita's Palace)
Back on the balcony of the Lunar Palace, Rita, standing behind the Repulsascope, pointed at a nearby skull clock and looked generally happy.
"They're running away!" jeered Rita, as Squatt nodded a lot while Baboo and Goldar both just stood there watching, "Now, the world will be ours for the taking!"
(Knapford City)
Back in Knapford City, five Ranger-colored teleportation streaks shot entangled across the city sky.
(Command Center)
The teleportation streaks arrived at the Command Center exterior and entered the building before landing in the main interior, revealing themselves to the Rangers, still morphed.
"Hey, what's going on here?" demanded Rosie.
"What's this all about?" put in Emily.
Thomas, Toby, and Percy were also uttering exclamations of protest.
"Your questions will be answered in due time," The voice of Zordon reassured, as the Rangers soon stopped talking and listened to what he had to tell him, "Your Zords have been returned to their hiding places," He was then shown talking to the left, "And I will now reveal to you new powers and weapons."
That got the Rangers' attention as they looked to where Zordon was looking before something, a lance of sorts, materialized in Blue Ranger's hands.
"Toby, this is your Power Lance," The voice of Zordon revealed, "It is a weapon of great power and range."
A bow-like weapon materialized in Pink Ranger's hands.
"Rosie, behold your Power Bow, accurate and strong," The voice of Zordon stated, as Pink Ranger silently wondered where the arrows were, "You can summon its arrows out of thin air."
A sword-like weapon materialized in Red Ranger's hands.
"Thomas, this is your Power Sword," The voice of Zordon proclaimed, with Red Ranger looking at the fine blade, "It serves as the key to all of the weapons' powers."
An axe-like weapon materialized in Black Ranger's hands.
"Percy, behold the Power Axe, lightning quick and hard as diamond," The voice of Zordon promised.
And two dagger-like weapons materialized in both of Yellow Ranger's hands as she admired them.
"And Emily, your Power Daggers are feather-light and true," The voice of Zordon concluded, "Use these weapons together, and you will be able to beat Minotaur."
"We're coming for you, Minotaur!" vowed Thomas, holding his new weapon out.
Soon, racing through the rocky landscape were five colored teleportation streaks before they shot themselves ahead.
"Okay, guys, here's the plan; we'll strike Minotaur at different parts, then finish him off!" instructed Thomas.
"Got it!" agreed Rosie.
"I'm with you!" put in Toby.
"Let's show this monster not to mess with us!" declared Emily boldly.
"Yeah!" cheered Percy.
(Knapford Dumpsite)
Red Ranger flipped through the air Power Weapon in hand, followed by Pink Ranger and Blue Ranger dropping down through the air with Power Weapons in hand, and finally followed by Black Ranger and Yellow Ranger flipping through the air with Power Weapons in hand. Meanwhile, Mighty Minotaur, having returned to normal size, Minotaur leaped up with arms and weapons stretched out, then flipped through the air, before landing, whipping his mace around and charging forth. However, the Rangers pose with their new Power Weapons before activating them.
"Red Ranger!" shouted Thomas, raising his Power Sword as it gleamed brightly red and posed with it when it ceased, "Power Sword!"
"Black Ranger!" shouted Percy, as he whipped his axe around and caused it to gleam purple and become a full Power Weapon, which he posed with, "Power Axe!"
"Blue Ranger!" shouted Toby, as he whipped his Power Lance around as it gleamed blue and posed with it when it ceased, "Power Lance!"
"Yellow Ranger!" shouted Emily, tossing both daggers into hand, crossing them as they gleamed yellow and became full Power Weapons, which she twirled and posed with, "Power Daggers!"
"Pink Ranger!" shouted Rosie, holding out her bow as it gleamed pink and became a full Power Weapon, which she held out and posed with, "Power Bow!"
And the Rangers posed with their Power Weapons.
"Mighty Morphin…" began Thomas.
"…Power Rangers!" The five Rangers finished with a battle cry.
Mighty Minotaur was initially taken aback for a moment, before raging ahead with his weapons poised, but he was never going to get the chance to attack; Pink Ranger and Yellow Ranger both leaped up, firing a Power Arrow and tossing a Power Dagger, respectively, and Mighty Minotaur was relieved of his weapons in a pair of bursts. That was followed by Blue Ranger and Black Ranger leaping up and forward, slashing Power Lance and Power Axe, respectively, and Mighty Minotaur was struck in the chest by both weapons, bursting sparks and smoke. Finally, Red Ranger leaped up and forward, holding his Power Sword outward, hitting Mighty Minotaur's head as its burst sparks and smoke, causing him to fall back and fly through the air, crossing the sun before landing and rolling along the ground. Once Red Ranger's hit landed safely, he suddenly saw his Power Sword suddenly begin to glow and sparkle blue.
"Rangers, the time is right to bring these weapons together," The voice of Zordon advised, as Blue Ranger and Pink Ranger looked at their respective Power Weapons, "Your team must act together as one!"
"You heard him, guys, let's do it!" commanded Thomas, posing and readying his Power Sword.
"Right!" Toby and Rosie agreed, readying and posing with their Power Weapons.
"Morphin!" Emily and Percy acknowledged, raising their fists with the Power Weapons there also.
Mighty Minotaur was taken aback for a moment, before raging ahead with his weapons poised. But he was too slow to act… The five Power Rangers each connected their Power Weapons in a circle and surging with electricity. Black Ranger shifted his Power Axe into Cannon mode before throwing it upward.
"Power Axe!" announced Percy.
The Power Axe floated up and hovered in the air. Pink Ranger crossed her Power Bow to her side, and then flung it upward.
"Power Bow!" announced Rosie.
The Power Bow materialized in a blue flash of energy, connected across the barrel of the Power Axe blaster. Yellow Ranger twirled both of her Power Daggers, crossed her arms, and then threw them upward.
"Power Daggers!" announced Emily.
Both Power Daggers materialized in a blue flash of energy, connected to the bottom side of the Power Bow. Blue Ranger held both ends of his Power Lance in the air, and then threw them upward.
"Power Lance!" announced Toby.
Both Power Lances materialized in a blue flash of energy, connected to the bottom side of the Power Bow next to the Power Daggers. Red Ranger, as he looked upward, gestured both arms while holding his Power Sword before going and leaping up.
"Power Sword!" announced Thomas.
Red Ranger floated up to the combined weapons and prepared to add the Power Sword to them. The Power Sword flashed with red power as it connected with the combined weapons, forming the full Power Blaster in a flash of blue energy. Red Ranger dropped back down from the air with the formed Power Blaster in his hand. After Red Ranger landed, the other four Rangers joined his side, each grabbing onto the Power Blaster or (in the girls' cases) touching his shoulders.
"Power Rangers!" The five Rangers concluded in unison.
(Rita's Palace)
On the balcony of the Lunar Palace, Rita was looking into her Repulsascope, before looking out agape.
"Uh-oh!" gulped Rita.
(Knapford Dumpsite)
Back at the dumpsite, Mighty Minotaur was writhing in fear with his body still smoking from the beating he received, just as the five Rangers remained together as the Power Blaster began to unleash five beams of power.
"FIRE!" The five Rangers yelled at the same time.
A combined beam (purple at the front, red fire at center, blue edges, yellow and pink spiral outside) blasted across the whole area. Mighty Minotaur had no time to flee as the energy beam struck him, causing a yellow explosion, leaving sparks and smoke on him as he fell down with orange electricity crackling and blue energy surging from within before his body exploded, shards of blue energy flying out and leaving sparks and smoke behind. Having won the fight, the Rangers retrieved their weapons from the complete Power Blaster and semi-posed with them as they cheered.
(Rita's Palace)
At the edge of the balcony of the Lunar Palace, a furious Rita turned to the right and walked over towards Finster and Goldar in an effort to yell at them.
"Oh, I can't believe it!" raged Rita, with Goldar appearing to react with a growl, "We were 'this' close to beating the Power geeks!" Her anger was then directed at Finster, causing him to wordlessly react with fear, "And if it wasn't for your monster, we'd have done it!" Not being done, she walked over to the other side and yelled at the embracing Baboo and Squatt, "And you two!"
"W-Well, you see…" stammered Baboo fearfully.
"Shut up!" berated Rita.
While that was going on, Finster and Goldar were shown starting to argue on whose fault it was that the plan failed.
"It's all your fault!" snapped Goldar, stamping down his sword then poking Finster in the forehead and causing him to flail his arms in anger, "Can't you make a monster to best those kids?!"
"Next time, 'you' try constructing a living weapon from modeling clay! Oh wait, you 'can't'!" argued Finster crossly.
"You're worthless, you coward!" insulted Goldar, smacking Finster upside the head.
Rita ceased facing the cowering Baboo and Squatt and turned around, touching the balcony and looking very unpleasant while talking in an equally unpleasant way.
"All the bad guys in the universe and I had to get stuck with these nitwits!" sulked Rita.
Her final words were loud enough to be heard from outside the Lunar Palace on the Moon, particularly from the upper tower.
(Sodor High School)
The next day at school, the Ranger teens were walking down the hallway, remembering their battle against Mighty Minotaur.
"Gee, things sure work out better when we work as a team, huh?" remarked Emily.
"Maybe with a little teamwork, we'll get the dumpsite closed down?" figured Toby.
Their good mood was spoiled when they saw Sir Topham Hatt waiting by the mess that Diesel and his gang left behind the other day.
"Uh-oh," groaned Thomas.
"Look at this mess! Why hasn't it been cleaned up yet?" barked Sir Topham Hatt, before noticing Thomas and the likes, "You there, I want to talk to you."
Just before the principal could scold the five of them for seemingly causing confusion and delay, there was an announcement on the speaker.
"Sir Topham Hatt, Mrs. Quagmire wants to talk to you," The voice of a woman by the name of Stacy echoed.
"Oh, for goodness sake," sighed Sir Topham Hatt, before looking at the Sudrian teenagers one more time, "One moment."
He turned and walked off for the office, leaving Thomas and the likes to try and clean up the mess from yesterday before Sir Topham Hatt returned to punish them.
"What do you say we show a little teamwork and get this place cleaned up?" requested Thomas.
"I'm all for that," agreed Toby.
"No argument there," grinned Percy.
"Come on," ordered Emily.
They all started to clean up the mess up off the floor; they put the papers in the right bins, while Rosie swept the floor. They had just finished the task by the time Sir Topham Hatt came back to speak with them.
"Nice work, team," praised Emily.
"What happened to the mess?" gawked Sir Topham Hatt.
"Mess?" winked Thomas, looking around before shrugging innocently, "What mess? I don't see any mess around here."
"Oh…" murmured Sir Topham Hatt, embarrassed, "N-Never mind."
The principal left once more, leaving Thomas, Emily, Rosie, Percy, and Toby to laugh. Suddenly, their communicators went off. Finding a safe spot, they were able to answer without anyone nearby.
"Congratulations on your victory yesterday, Power Team. You have done well," The voice of Zordon praised, as boombox music was heard from the other end. As he explained what was going on, Rosie and Emily seemed to giggle as Percy appeared to facepalm while looking a little embarrassed over trying to teach Alpha how to dance the other day, "Please excuse the static on your communicators, Alpha has been too busy practicing his dance step, he keeps on short circuiting the power console."
(Command Center)
In the Command Center, sure enough, Alpha was busy dancing to the boombox music, and kept hitting the control console and causing minor, yet easily repairable, damage, just as Zordon said as the music finally stopped and he nearly collapsed.
"Hee-hee, and that's kicking it!" chortled Alpha, dizzy but proud, "Ay-yi-yi-yi-yi!"
(Sodor High School)
At school, Percy chose that moment to speak up.
"Alpha, do me a favor and forget about hip hop; it isn't for you," exclaimed Percy, "Just be a robot and keep that power console working, right?"
And everyone else shared a laugh. Then they heard some mocking applause from down the hall. They turned to see Diesel, Dennis, Arry, and Bert approaching them.
"Well done tidying up the mess you made," Diesel said smugly.
"Shows what you get for being lazy and not 'respecting the environment'," mocked Arry, as Bert smirked.
"Shut up, you!" threatened Emily, pointing an accusing finger forth, "You know this was 'your' mess!"
"You guys wouldn't know respect even if it smacked you in the face," spat Thomas.
"Good thing 'we' know the meaning of hard work," added Toby confidently.
"Oh yeah?" Dennis challenged, before crushing his drink can and dropping it on the floor, "You love hard work so much, you can clean that up."
"What he said," Bert grunted, as he crumpled up the bag of chips he was eating and dropped it, spilling its contents all over the floor. He grinned maliciously, "Well? What are you losers waiting for? Come and clean it up!"
"And why stop there?" taunted Diesel, as he tipped over a bin, spilling all the contents on the floor, "Go on then, 'Team Hard Work', start cleaning."
But the Ranger teens just stood in their spots while smirking, confusing Diesel and his friends. And then, there was trouble—trouble for the devious members of the Smelters House, that is.
"Ahem!"
The four boys gulped with absolute fear, recognizing that voice really well. They slowly turned around to see a displeased Sir Topham Hatt standing behind them.
"Diesel, Dennis, Arry, and Bert," began Sir Topham Hatt, "Am I correct in assuming you four are responsible for this mess?"
Opening his mouth to speak, Diesel was about to spew some lie or try to weasel out of this situation, but one look at Sir Topham Hatt and he knew he wasn't going anywhere.
"Um… yes, sir?" answered Diesel nervously.
"Then unless you and your friends wish to face detention, I suggest you start cleaning," instructed Sir Topham Hatt, "The rest of you…" He looked to the Rangers teens, "…better hurry and get to class."
"Yes, sir!" Thomas and the likes all replied.
And they all walked off, giving mocking waves to Diesel, Dennis, Arry, and Bert as they started clearing away the mess they made.
And here is the third chapter of this remake. The next chapter will be an adaptation of "A Pressing Engagement", so do stay tuned for when it will be written and posted.
