"So, you're telling me there are five rangers now?" Prince Ghoular said as he was informed of the current situation he's in. "I do not like this. The rangers are starting to become a challenge that should be eliminated."

"And we shall." Gar said. "They have only been lucky up until now."

"I didn't think you were the kind to make excuses." Creepna said.

"You were the last one to fail! I will not! I will find a ghoul that will destroy these rangers." Gar claimed.

"Look no further because you found one." All of them saw another ghoul stepped in that resembled a black Minotaur in gladiator armor with twin axes. "I'm the toughest ghoul around. You want someone crushed and stomped, I'm your guy."

"Minotore. What are you doing here?" Prince Ghoular said.

"Here to offer my services." Minotore claimed. "I heard that you need some power, and that's why I'm here. A ghoul of your caliber should have someone like me on your side. I'll do what's right in my name and tear these rangers to pieces."

"Those are some big words, but can you actually back them up?" Creepna wondered.

"Just you wait. Those rangers won't stand a chance once they come across me." Minotore claimed.

...

Steel Grounds

Now that Timmy has accepted the offer and has become a ranger, he's starting to feel good about himself. He's part of something big. If only he could tell someone, but the rangers are suppose to keep their identities a secret or it puts others at risk. Too bad because there's one person Timmy wants to tell to try and gain some respect.

"Hey, Timmy!" Dex called as he smashed Timmy's locker closed.

"What do you want now, Dex?" Timmy said.

"Remember the other day? You brought some sort of freaky monster and attacked me and my buddies." Dex claimed. "What was all of that about by the way?"

"I don't have to tell you anything." Timmy said as he tried to leave, but Dex's buddies wouldn't allow him to leave. "This again? What's it going to take for you to back off and leave me alone?" Rather than answering, Dax just knocked the books right out of his hands.

"You're always going to be beneath me. I can do whatever I like to you because you're too weak to do anything about it." Dax claimed. Normally, Timmy would bow down to him, but becoming a ranger seems to have given him a boost in confidence. He's not backing down to him.

"Timmy!" Austin called as he spotted trouble and came over. "Is there a problem here?" He questioned as he was ready to step in and help his friend.

"No." Timmy said as he gathered his stuff together. "Just Dex being his usually annoying and childish self."

"Excuse me? When did you grow a backbone?" Dex questioned as he didn't like being talked back to.

"Grow up, man." Austin said as he helped Timmy out. "Forget him, Timmy. Let's just go." Timmy followed after him, but Dex isn't going to let Timmy go so easily.

...

Later

When Austin and Timmy had a free moment from school, the two of them roamed the halls. However, Austin was a little worried about Timmy.

"You okay? You're not worried about Dex, are you?" Austin asked.

"No, but I don't know what to do." Timmy said. "How do I get him off my back?"

"Thing about bullies is that they pick on others to hide their own weakness and insecurities." Austin said.

"Well, I like to see how he feel once the Green Tanger gives him a piece of his mind." Timmy said.

"Timmy, you can't use your ranger powers for this. Since we're learning to be knights, I think this would be a sign of dishonor." Austin said.

"I know. You're right, but I..." Timmy was about to explain his situation until he looked out the window and spotted Minotore with a couple battas. "I think this will have to wait." He claimed with Austin seeing them now. Having ghouls by their school is no good, so they hurried out to face them.

"This is where those rangers can be found." Minotore said. "I want you to spy on them and let me know how I can hurt them." He was planning to get the edge over them, but it was too late since Austin and Timmy already found them and came out to face them.

"Hey! What are you doing here?!" Austin called.

"So much for that idea. Let's just skip straight to the bashing! Attack!" Minotore ordered. He only had two battas with him, but they still attacked. Each one took on one of them and fought back. One tried attacking Austin with its saber, but Austin knocked it right out of its hands. The batta did tackle him and pushed him against the wall, but Austin drove his knee right into it and knocked it off. After that, he gave it a powerful kick and knocked it down. As for Timmy, the batta kept trying to attack it, but he kept avoiding the attacks. When the batta missed with its saber, he gave it a pretty good roundhouse kick. "Not bad, but I'm a different story."

"We're not scared of you." Austin claimed.

"You will be when I get done with you!" Minotore said as he charged right in to attack them, but that was when the other three rangers jumped in and slashed their swords against him.

"You guys okay?" Lance asked.

"Yeah. How did you guys know something was going on out here?" Timmy asked.

"A fellow teacher saw the fight and alerted the school about what was going on." Hannah said. "We had to do something."

"You rangers don't look that tough to me." Minotore said.

"Oh yeah? Come over here and say that." Johnny dared.

"Maybe another time. You can't be together forever." Minotore claimed before he took off.

"Hey! Come back!" Lance said, but that didn't do any good.

"Coward." Jonny claimed.

...

Chalice

"So rather than fighting you, he retreated?" Pro questioned as the rangers told them all about what happened.

"Yeah. He talked tough, but didn't back it up." Lance claimed.

"I think he's planning to take you all on when you're on your own." Pro said. "If any of you go anywhere alone, keep your guard up."

"Great. Now I've got two to watch out for?" Timmy complained.

"Two?" Hannah questioned.

"He's talking about Dex. The guy won't leave Timmy alone." Austin claimed.

"Pro, I need some advice." Timmy said. "Dec is this bully that keeps harassing me. Before, I was scared of him, but being a ranger is helping me become more confident. I know I can't use my ranger powers against him, but what do I do?"

"I see your predicament." Pro said. "Timmy, a knight never strikes in vengeance or without honor. The thing about bullies is that they try to act tough to hide their own weakness and insecurities. As a knight, you need to show them the right path for them." Easier said than done since they don't like Timmy.

...

The Park

The rangers are going to have to keep their eyes open for when Minotore comes back. At the moment, Timmy is searching around on his own at the park, but him being alone might be just what Minotaur wants.

"Where is he?" Timmy questioned as he looked around for him.

"You mean me?" Timmy turned around and saw Dex and his buddies came back. "I'm not done with you just yet. It also looks like you're on your own this time. Your buddies aren't here to protect you."

"Dex, this is starting to get old." Timmy said as Dex and his buddies surrounded him.

"I don't know where you're getting a backbone, but you're just all talk." Dex claimed. "Why don't you actually do something, you pathetic wimp?" He said and shoved Timmy. Timmy was tempted to fight back, but tried to restrain himself. "That's what I thought." Dex tried to shove him again, but Timmy grabbed him and threw against a table. They certainly didn't expect Timmy to act like that. Timmy was going to strike back, but Timmy stopped himself by remembering what Pro said. When he remembered that, he pulled away and just walked past them. "Hey! Get back here!"

"I got better things to do. Whatever your problem is, leave me out of it." Timmy claimed and just kept walking to take the higher ground.

"I swear I'm going to..." Dex didn't finish as an attack came out of nowhere and knocked him and his friends down. When they tried to get up, they were met with Minotore.

"I should be destroying rangers, but I can't help but push humans around." Minotore claimed.

"Don't hurt us!" Dex pleaded as he and his friends were scared. "Just take our money." He handed all his money over, but Minotore knocked its out of his hands.

"What would I want with that when this is much more fun." Minotore said as he intends to hurt them, but that was when Timmy jumped in as he kicked Minotore and grabbed him by the arm to hold him down.

"Timmy?!" Dex said as he didn't expect him.

"Get off!" Minotore called as he threw him off and tried attacking him. Timmy tried to fight him off, but Minotore grabbed a hold of him and tried to hold him down.

"Go! Run!" Timmy called. Dex and the others did just that as they ran off. Minotore tossed Tommy as hard as he could, but Timmy morphed and stuck the landing. "Guys, I found him." He said as he gave the rangers a quick call.

"You'll be done for before they get here!" Minotore said. He threw his axes right at him and they smashed right into him. Timmy pulled himself together as he jumped at Minotore and tried using his sword, but Minotore landed his own strike and knocked him down. After that, he stomped down on Timmy. "Not so tough now."

"Neither are you!" The other rangers jumped at him and slashed their swords against him and knocked him off Timmy.

"Are you okay, Timmy?" Hannah asked.

"Yeah. Thanks." Timmy said.

"What's wrong, Green Ranger? Can't beat me yourself?" Minotore taunted.

"You're just another bully that likes to pick on those you think is weak." Timmy said. "Only difference, you're rotten to the core. Let's finish this!"

"You're finished!" Minotore said as he took both his axes and charged right at them.

"Power Slash!" Four of the rangers unleashed their attacks and blasted Minotore with it. After that, Timmy jumped in the air with his own axe and slashed it straight down got Minotore pretty good.

"That's what you get for being a bully." Timmy said.

"So I'm a bully? How about I be a big bully?!" Minotore said and made himself grow into a giant.

"Zord time!" Timmy said. Each one of them called upon their zords to help in this battle. Once they did, they combined their zords into the Noble Megazord.

"Your little toy won't stop me!" Minotore called as he went right at them. He swung his axes at them, but they used their sword to block it. However, Minotore tried to push down. "You can't win! I'm much stronger!"

"I don't think so!" Timmy called. He had the Megazord kick Minotore back. When that happened, they gave him a powerful slash.

"Come on! Don't be mean!" Minotore pleaded.

"Sacred Strike!" They went into their final strike as they slashed right through him and Minotore met his demise as he exploded. That's one where the good guys win again.

...

The Next Day

It was marked another victory for the rangers. After that, it was business as usual. Timmy was going on with his day until Dex showed up.

"Hey, Timmy." Dex said with Timmy getting ready for whatever Dex might try now. "I never got to say thanks for helping me and my friends from that monster."

"Uh... No worries. I just tried to help." Timmy said as he didn't expect that.

"You wouldn't want to grab a burger with us later today, would you?" Dex offered.

"Sure. That sounds good." Timmy said. Looks like Timmy set a great example. Sometimes all a bully needs is someone to take the higher ground, and a knight is a great example for that.
