After Zedd and Goldar returned they told Rita and Rito there latest plan. Rita was very pleased with what she heard. She jumped up and down and clapped with excitement when she saw the crystals together.
A week later, the rangers were waiting for Billy and Todd in the park after school. When Billy arrived, Kim started to hear something in the bushes.
"Did you guys hear that?" She asked.
"Hear what?" Everyone else asked.
"Um I guess it was nothing," Kim said.
A short time later, Todd arrived.
"Hey guys, how about some football?" Tommy asked.
The guys took sides. Tommy, Adam, and Billy were on one team and Jason, Rocky, and Todd made up the other team. The girls just watched while Tommy and Jason played Quarterback. Tommy threw it to Adam while Rocky tried to intercept it. Rocky lost his focus when Adam ran to where the designated end zone.
"Way to go Adam!" Tanya said.
"That was just luck," Rocky said.
"Your turn bro," Tommy said.
Jason threw the ball towards Todd, but Billy intercepted it.
"No bad for a science geek," Billy said.
"Don't toot your own horn there Billy," Rocky said.
"I would never do that," Billy said while the teams changed sides.
While Tommy was trying to complete a pass to Billy, the girls thought they heard a noise in the bushes. The guys stopped the game when the girls let out a scream. They ran over to the bushes to see Squatt and Baboo. The rangers and Billy instantly took fighting stances.
"What do you creeps want?" Tommy asked.
"We don't want to fight, in fact we got kicked out of Zedd and Rita's empire," Squatt said.
"My friend here speaks the truth. In fact, we have a plan for you to get rid of them," Baboo said.
"Yeah right, why should we believe you?" Jason asked.
"We don't expect you to, but you have to believe us," Squatt said.
"We have not been with Zedd and Rita since Rito and Goldar blew up your base," Baboo said.
"That was a good while back," Kat said.
The rangers let their guard down.
"Once Zedd and Rita re surface and got Goldar and Rito back we were, as you humans say, kicked to the curve," Squatt said.
"Why should we believe an over grown blue berry and a walking bat?" Rocky said.
"Like we said, we do not expect you to, but we thought we would help you since we got thrown out," Baboo said.
"What do you say guys?" Tommy asked.
"I don't know about this. I think it is a trap," Kim said.
"It might be," Billy said.
"Even if it is not, taking out Zedd and Rita will be big," Rocky said.
"Can we really trust these two?" Tanya said.
"Even if it is, we will get out of it. Ok you two, what do we have to do?" Tommy asked.
"Excellent, now I will open up a portal then you follow us," Baboo said.
I got a bad feeling about this. Kim thought.
If these two are right, after all of these years, we are this close to defeating Zedd and Rita. Jason thought.
I hope I am not leading the team into a trap. Tommy thought.
"Let me kiss my boyfriend first," Kat said.
"After I count to three, I will open up the portal. One... two," Baboo said before he used a device to envelope the rangers to another dimension. Billy went to the Power Chamber while Squat and Baboo grabbed Todd before he could escape.
"Rita, Zedd we did it," Squatt called.
EXCELLENT HAHAHA!" Zedd laughed.
That is when Squatt and Baboo disappeared with Todd. The next thing the rangers knew they found themselves in a dark and foggy area.
"Where are we?" Tommy asked.
"Another one of Zedd and Rita's dimension's I am guessing," Adam said.
"I guess I should of gone with my gut and not trust those two," Tommy said.
"It's ok bro, I think we were all excited about the idea of defeating them, Jason said.
"Jason's right, we were all hoping what they said would be true," Kim said.
"At least they did not do anything to us," Rocky said.
"Good point," Tommy said.
"At least we are still morphed," Kat said.
"I can not imagine what those two are doing right now," Tanya said.
"Probably planning their next move," Kat said.
"If they were really smart, wouldn't they already have their next move figure out and use it while we are here?" Kim asked.
"You would think so," Tommy said.
"Rita and Zedd aren't the smartest villains around," Adam smirked.
Meanwhile, Zedd and Rita are putting the finishing touches on their new plan.
"Are you ready oh wicked husband of mine?" Rita asked.
"Just about. OH FINSTER!" Zedd yelled..
"Yes sire?" Finster asked.
"Is the other world ready for my return?" Zedd asked.
"Yes it is," Finster said.
"Excellent, GOLDAR, RITO!" Zedd yelled.
"Yes Ed?" Rito asked.
"Yes master?" Goldar asked.
"Go take on the rangers," Zedd said.
"You got it!" they said in unison.
"When we take over the Earth, remind me to zap Rito every time he calls me Ed," Zedd said.
"Why wait, just do it the next time it happens," Rita said.
Back at the Power Chamber, Billy and Zordon was talking about what just happened.
"Zedd and Rita must be planning something big," Billy said.
"Oh I am afraid you could be right Billy," Alpha said.
After Zedd and Rita made their way to the other world, some lighting shot out of his staff. In front of them stood six people who couldn't move, three males and three females. He told them that they have been chosen to be his evil rangers. Back in the dark dimension Rito and Goldar showed up to fight the Power Rangers. In the Power Chamber, Zordon sensed what was taking place.
"Evil rangers? Is this like the last time Zedd tried that?" Billy asked.
"No I am afraid not. It appears that Zedd has obtain the evil counterpart to the Zeo Crystals. It is called the Somer Crystals. Now our rangers will have their hands full," Zordon said.
"Will the Morphing Grid be able to handle two sets of rangers at one time?" Billy asked.
"Temporary yes, in the long term no," Zordon said.
"So the only hope the world has is if the Power Rangers get back here and defeat Zedd's rangers," Billy said.
"Until the Morphing Grid rejects the evil rangers yes," Zordon said.
"Were King Mondo's Rangers part of the Morphing Grid?" Billy asked.
"No because they were machines," Zordon said.
Meanwhile, the Power Rangers were struggling in their battle.
"What does Zedd and Rita have in store now?" Tommy asked.
"If we told you, it will not be a surprise," Rito said.
"We learned not to like Zedd's surprises," Rocky said.
"Who said you had a choice?" Rito asked.
Jason managed to knock Goldar's sword out of his hand, when Tommy knocked Rito's sword away.
"Hey that was not fair," Rito said,
"Oh yes it was, if we can not have weapons, neither should you," Adam said.
When it looked like Rito and Goldar were about to win, they teleported away.
"What was that about?" Kat asked.
"Do those two ever put up a fair fight?" Tanya asked.
"Nope and they always leave when things get tough for them. You should know that by now," Tommy said.
"Is everybody ok?" Jason asked.
The rangers were out of breath, other then that they were fine. They walked a while, keeping their guard up for anything. Then they managed to find a portal that appeared out of no where.
"Woo could this be our way home?" Jason asked.
"Billy rarely used a portal to get us out," Kim said.
"And usually it is so we can get something," Tommy said.
"Then again, it did open up right in front of us," Rocky said.
"Should we go through it?" Tanya asked.
"It could be another trap," Kim said.
"Only one way to find out," Tommy said as he walk through.
Jason followed then one by one everybody else walked through. When they got through, it looked like Deja vu for Kim and Jason. The rangers found their selves in Zedd's other world. This time instead of Goldar being there, Rita was in his place.
Back at the Power Chamber, Alpha finally found the rangers.
"I found them! You won't believe were they are!" Alpha said.
"Where are they?" Billy asked.
"Zedd's other world," Alpha said.
"How did they get there?" Billy asked.
"It is not certain, although I believe they are about to meet Zedd's newest rangers," Zordon said.
In the other world, Zedd was surprised to see the rangers there.
"Power Rangers how did you get here? It does not matter because it is time for you to meet your match. As three of you may remember, I attempted to have my own team of evil rangers using the green rangers remaining powers. It almost worked too until Tommy smashed the crystal. This time around, I have a better power source for my rangers," Zedd said.
A group of rangers in black suites, with helmets that was in darker shades of the power Rangers colors and resembled the rangers helmets walked out. Each of the evil rangers had the same shape on the chest as their visors, only it was in their darker color. A red star, blue upside triangle etc. Also the white neck area on the Power Rangers suit is was the evil counterparts darker color.
On a near by stand, stood a crystal that look like a cross between the green crystal and the dark crystals when they were all together.
"You won't win this time Zedd," Tommy said.
"That's what you think," Zedd said before he zapped them away.
The Power Rangers landed in the park. Before anyone could say another word, they heard their commutators beep.
"Tommy here," he said.
"Rangers, I am glad to see you back," Zordon said.
"Thanks, but we have a major problem on our hands," Tommy said.
"I am aware of that. Zedd's new rangers will not last for long. The Morphing Grid can not handle two sets of rangers on Earth at the same time," Zordon said.
"Well that's good," Tommy said before he ended the communication.
"Well if things weren't bad enough, Zedd found away to make it worse," Kim said.
All of the rangers had worried looks on their faces.
