"And so you see." Dooku went on, as he showed the Power Rangers a map. "The Prime Galaxy is made up of several regions, the Deep core, the core, the Inner rom, the Colonies, the Expansion Region, the Mid Rim and the Outer Rim."

"What about the other Galaxies?" Asked Ashley.

"Those would be the Regions of Hutt Space, Landsraad Space, and Federation space." Explained Dooku. "The Republic has no jurisdiction or power in those regions, But there have been times when they've been called upon for assistance or diplomatic affairs."

"So is Eltar in a different Galaxy?" Asked Justin.

"Perhaps the unknown Regions." Said Dooku.

"That would be a good start." Said Alpha 6. "But when soon can the council make Contact with Zordon?"

"Wherever the Council find it necessary, I suppose." Dooku replied, obstiently.

It was then that Qui Gon entered the room. "Ah Children." He said. "I see you've met my old Master Dooku."

"Qui Gon!" Said Dooku. "I was acquainting myself with your friends, a remarkable lot."

"Thank you Master." Said Qui Gon, before turning to the Rangers. "If you'd excuse us Friends."

And He and Dooku left the room and stood outside.

"So, tell me about your adventures on Tatooine." Said Dooku.

"Our ship was damaged when we fled the Naboo system." Said Qui Gon. "We had to find new parts for it on Tatooine, there I found a boy, strong in the force and having no Father apparently."

"The Chosen One?" Dooku was intrigued. "What's his name?"

"Anakin Skywalker." Said Qui Gon. "He's being tested by the Council as we speak."

"I see." Dooku said, ponderously.

"I also encountered a mysterious warrior trained in the Jedi Arts." He said.

"And you believe it was a Sith Lord?" Asked Dooku.

"Yes."

"Could the prophecy be coming true than perhaps?" Dooku wondered. "And the Council weren't eager to validate either of your theories, were they?"

"No, they were not, Master." Said Qui Gon. "And they were especially split about the boy."

"Hmm, I've been warning them about the coming darkness for years." Dooku sighed. "Never to be taken seriously, hard to imagine the Trade Federation would be the cause of that darkness of course, and Poor Chancellor Valorum, he was a weak man, but still good."

"I didn't expect this move from Queen Amidala either." Said Qui Gon. "But she is desperate to help her people, and I can't fault her for that. She's a most remarkable young woman, truly dedicated to her homeworld."

"Hmm, She must be." Said Dooku. "Especially if a Sith Lord is after her, this is still a dangerous matter, and I will not be there to protect you, my old Padawan."

He put a hand on Qui Gon's shoulder.

"You needn't worry Master." Said Qui Gon. "Obi Wan fills that role now, He acquired himself quite well."

"That's good." Said Dooku, smiling. "You've surrounded yourself with remarkable people Qui Gon, I should like to meet them all someday."

Qui Gon smiled back and nodded, Just as T.J. and the others came out.

"So is this a private conversation or…?" Ashley asked.

"Ah, come along." Said Qui Gon. "It's time we meet with Zordon."

The Rangers eagerly followed after Qui Gon, Justin looking back at Dooku and waving goodbye, Dooku smiled and went on his way.

Meanwhile,

In the Council Chamber, Anakin stood in the center, describing images he claimed to see as Master Windu held up a vid screen.

"A ship…" He said. "...A Cup… A Ship… A Speeder…"

Master Windu lowered the view screen. "He got them all right."

Yoda was impressed. "Well done, how feel you?"

"Cold Sir." Said Anakin.

"Afraid are you?" Yoda asked.

"No, Sir."

"See through you, we can." Said Yoda.

"Be mindful of your feelings." Instructed Windu.

"Your thoughts dwell on your Mother." Said Master Mundi.

"I miss her, Sirs." Said Anakin.

"Ah, that much is clear." Said Yaddle, nodding sympathetically.

"Afraid to lose her It seems." Said Yoda.

"What has that got to do with anything?" Anakin asked, getting annoyed.

"Everything!" Yoda exclaimed, as if in alarm. "Fear is the path to the dark side! Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, Hate!... leads to suffering…"

The chamber was silent as Yoda collected himself.

"I sense much fear in you." Yoda said.

"I'm not afraid!" Anakin insisted angrily.

"A Jedi must have the deepest commitment AND the most serious mindset." Said Master Ranchisis.

"I can do that!" Insisted Anakin.

"Then continue, we shall." Yoda said, as Master Windu held up the view screen again.

Meanwhile,

Out in the city, the sun was beginning to set, A small pod landed on the platform outside the apartment of Queen Amidala, and out stopped Elgar, followed by Rygog and a platoon of Piranhatrons, Rygog pulled out a com device and contacted Divatox.

"We have arrived, my liege." Said Rygog.

"Good, secure the Princess." Said Divatox. "If Gunray wants her so bad, I'll give him this nice little present."

Rygog switched off, and began leading his troops towards the tower.

"Wow, nice digs here!" Said Elgar, as he gazed around the city, "It's not New York, but hey, maybe we can find some-" He was promptly dragged off by Rygog.
