Page Ten

Billy and Alpha 5 work at the controls as Jason, Zack, Trini, and Kimberly watch the viewing globe. It shows images of Cyclopsis attacking the city with Goldar inside. Zordon informs the teens, Cyclopsis is one of Rita's most terrifying creations. You have to defeat him in order to release the population of Angel Grove from the dimensional vortex from which Rita has them trapped. Goldar has taken over piloting Cyclopsis with backup from Lokar. This situation is grave. If you don't win this battle soon, Angel Grove and the entire world is doomed. Jason tells his friends, we got to stop that thing. Jason walks over to Billy and asks him what's the update on the zords? Billy informs him the zords are not fully energized. Alpha 5 adds the zords need another twelve hours to be at full power. Jason is very agitated. We can't wait that long. Jason gives the order that we'll take them at half power. Billy is stunned. He turns around and faces his friend. Billy tells Jason, if we do that, we risk doing serious damage to the zords. Jason doesn't think they have a choice. Zordon tells them there is too much danger in what they propose. Jason, Trini, Zack, Kimberly, and Billy stand in a line in front of Zordon. Kimberly asks him, what about our city? We have to stop it from being destroyed. Zack adds, not to mention rescuing all those people trapped in Rita's dimensional vortex. Trini also voices her concern. They are safe right now but, if we wait twelve hours, it may be too late. Zordon tells them that what they are asking has never been tried before. If the zords backups fail, you and everything in the morphing grid could vanish forever. Do you really want to try this? Jason replies, you know we do. Trini and Billy add their agreement as well. Alpha 5 puts in the coordinates and asks the teens if they are ready to morph to the city? Jason confirms that they are. Zordon tells them good luck and may the power protect you. Jason, Zack, Kimberly, Trini, and Billy morph and teleport out. The zords arrive and Megazord is quickly formed. Megazord is ready to battle. Rita is on top of a building. She asks if they are back for more? Lokar will take care of you for good! Right Lokar? Lokar blasts his breath onto Megazord. Megazord is hit and flips through the air, eventually crashing onto the ground. Cyclopsis walks over and ejects swords out of it's wrists. Cyclopsis is about to strike the fallen Megazord, but Megazord rolls out of the way. Goldar is furious and vows they will pay for that. Megazord gets back up. Megazord and Cyclopsis battle. During the battle, Cyclopsis cuts off one of Megazord's arms. Megazord crashes through a building and lands back on the ground. Blue Ranger tells the rest of the Rangers that the power grid is down. Red Ranger gives the command to switch to emergency power. Pink Ranger tells him, we can't. Black Ranger adds backups are down. Cyclopsis walks over to fallen Megazord. Cyclopsis places it's foot onto Megazord. Goldar announces, victory is mine! Cyclopsis is about to strike Megazord again, but Megazord blasts it. Cyclopsis is knocked back and Megazord is able to get back up. Cyclopsis strikes Megazord with it's swords. Soon Megazord is knocked to the ground once more. Pink Ranger announces, shields are down. One more hit and we are finished. Black Ranger tells the rest of the Rangers, we got to do something fast! Red Ranger just hopes Dragonzord is powered up enough to help. Red Ranger uses Dragon Dagger to summon Dragonzord. Dragonzord quickly arrives. Dragonzord prepares to strike Cyclopsis with it's tail. Cyclopsis promptly slices off a piece of Dragonzord's tail. Dragonzord is knocked to the ground and lands by Megazord. The Rangers can't believe it. Lokar then blasts Megazord and it falls to the ground once more. Black Ranger tells the rest of the Rangers, the weapons are out. Lokar grins at helpless Megazord and Dragonzord. Lokar announces, they are all yours Rita. Rita uses her wand to blast them. Megazord and Dragonzord are hit. Red Ranger tells his team, it's overloading. Black Ranger yells, we're coming apart! Pieces of Dragonzord and Megazord start to vanish. Red Ranger gives the command to abandon ship. Red Ranger and the rest of the Rangers eject themselves from Megazord. The teens land in Angel Grove park. Jason asks his friends if they are okay? Everyone is okay. Jason tries to contact the Command Center. When there is no response, Billy tells his friends, Rita is undoubtedly jamming the frequency. Billy walks a little away from his friends and then turns and faces them. Billy points out that they have lost all contact with Zordon and Alpha. Zack asks him about the zords? Kimberly points out that they just came apart. They dissolved. Billy informs them that was actually the new security system Zordon had designed for the zords. If they lose in battle, they automatically disassemble and return to their secret hiding place to reenergize. Trini walks up to Billy. Trini confirms with Billy that the zords are not destroyed. Zack points out, our problem now is we have no way of contacting them. Billy thinks that they do. He has some equipment in his garage that may help change the frequency on the communicators. Jason tells his friends, then let's move. Jason, Kimberly, Zack, Trini, and Billy run to Billy's garage. The teens run past the Rad Bug as they enter Billy's garage. Billy asks Trini to check an area for a device as he grabs some plans. Trini finds it and brings it over to Billy. Jason, Zack, Kimberly, and Trini anxiously watch Billy work. Billy tells them he has all the equipment he needs, it's just a matter of time. Kimberly tells her friends, if he does fix our communicators and reestablishes contact with Zordon, then what? Jason hopes that by then Zordon has already come up with a plan. Or this truly is the end of the Power Rangers. Jason is very worried. Billy frantically works on his Communicator. Jason asks him, how's it coming? Billy replies, I'm adjusting the modulator to read an alternative signal. I just need a few more minutes. Just then Goldar and two Putties appear outside of Billy's garage. Goldar taunts, your few minutes are up. Kimberly, Trini, and Zack go into a fight stance. Goldar continues, greetings Power Rangers! I thought I would stop by and say hello! Goldar laughs and continues, before I say goodbye forever! It's been nice knowing ya! Goldar laughs once more. Billy is worried about the equipment. Jason tells Billy to keep working. We'll take care of Goldar. Goldar laughs. Still living in a fantasy! Time to learn a lesson! Goldar begins wrecking items in the garage. After a few tense moments, Billy excitedly announces he did it! The communicators work. Goldar shouts impossible! Jason announces, we're out of here. The teens teleport out. Goldar is furious. Goldar and the two Putties vanish. Jason and his friends arrive in the Command Center and Alpha 5 is very happy to see them. Zordon asks them if they are alright? Zack replies, yeah, we're all in one piece. Zordon tells them there is no time to waste. We may finally have a way to defeat Rita. Jason asks how? Zordon informs them that Alpha 5 has tapped into Rita's data storage and discovered a weakness in Cyclopsis we can use. Trini asks, what do we do? Cyclopsis will adjust to whatever it fights. Change battle modes frequently and it will not be able to keep up. Zack asks if the zords are powered up? Alpha 5 replies, ready and waiting for you. Zordon continues, each time you change, Cyclopsis will weaken as it tries to adjust. Use this to your advantage Rangers. Titanus is now reenergized and ready for action. When the time is right, call on the power of Ultrazord. If you fire at Cyclopsis in it's moment of weakness, you will be able to destroy it. Jason tells his friends, there's no time to lose. Zordon tells them, may the power protect you. Remember the quicker you change modes, the weaker Cyclopsis becomes. The teens morph and teleport out. The Rangers arrive as Cyclopsis is knocking down buildings. The Rangers quickly summon their zords. When the zords arrive, the Rangers leap inside them. Goldar is piloting Cyclopsis and he shouts at the Rangers, give me your best shot! Mastodon, Triceratops, Pterodactyl, and Sabretooth Tiger fire at Cyclopsis. Cyclopsis is hit several times. Tyrannosaurus battles Cyclopsis. Red Ranger gives the command to switch to Megazord. Megazord is immediately formed. Goldar tells them they can't win. Megazord charges towards Cyclopsis with it's power sword. Megazord and Cyclopsis battle. After a few moments, Red Ranger uses the Dragon Dagger to summon Dragonzord. Dragonzord quickly arrives. Dragonzord fires at Cyclopsis and then battles Cyclopsis. Dragonzord uses it's tail and destroys Cyclopsis' swords. Dragonzord in Fighting Mode is formed. This time Cyclopsis charges towards Dragonzord in Fighting Mode. Dragonzord in Fighting Mode strikes Cyclopsis with it's weapon. Cyclopsis and Dragonzord in Fighting Mode battle. Lokar fires at Dragonzord in Fighting Mode. Dragonzord in Fighting Mode falls on top of a building. Red Ranger summons Titanus. Titanus arrives and Ultrazord is formed. Red Ranger tells Lokar and Cyclopsis, you two have had it! Lokar laughs at them. Ultrazord fires it's weapons. Cyclopsis starts to overload with all the changes. Goldar is furious. Ultrazord continues to fire at Cyclopsis. Goldar abandons ship. Cyclopsis is destroyed. (Lokar vanished - whereabouts unknown.) The Rangers leap out of Ultrazord. Rita quickly moves her Moon Palace out of Angel Grove and back on the moon. The citizens of Angel Grove start to reappear in the park. Everyone is excited to be back. Bulk and Skull reappear on the stage. They scream, we're back! They are so grateful to be back, they begin kissing the stage floor. Mayor Carrington walks up on the stage and shoos them away. Ernie very excitedly points out that the Power Rangers have arrived. Miss Appleby exclaims, my heroes. Mr. Caplan comes to the conclusion that they must have saved us. The citizens begin to applaud and cheer. Mayor Carrington asks the crowd to clear the way for the Power Rangers. The Power Rangers walk through the crowd as they make their way towards the stage. Bulk and Skull are very disappointed over the crowds' reaction. Skull asks, what about us? Tommy is in the crowd as well. Each Ranger makes a point of clasping Tommy's hand as they pass. The Power Rangers walk up on stage. Mayor Carrington tells the crowd, as the mayor of Angel Grove city, it is with great pride I stand here before you in the presence of true heroes. They have risked their lives countless times for the safety of our city and it's people. They are true examples of good triumphing over evil and now it is time to thank them. They are the Power Rangers. The Power Rangers step forward on stage and wave as the crowd erupts in cheers. The Rangers formed a semi circle, placed their hands on top of each other, and then leap into the air, shouting Power Rangers! After the celebration, the teens return to the Command Center. Zordon congratulates them. Victory is yours. You have dealt Rita a serious blow and have proven yourselves to be the mightiest heroes on Earth. Jason thanks him. Zordon continues. Rangers, it's time for you to choose again. Kimberly is puzzled and asks him, what do you mean? Zordon replies, you have gone far beyond the call of duty and saved your world from a terrible fate. And although the danger has not passed completely, you may now choose whether you wish to remain Power Rangers or return to your regular lives. The decision is yours. Jason answers, there is no decision to be made. Jason looks at his friends and adds, I think we all feel the same way. Kimberly agrees, yeah, we're the Power Rangers. Trini excitedly adds, to the end! Zack points out the reason you choose us was to stop Rita, but it doesn't end there. Billy adds, there are other villains. Other crimes to protect the city from. Trini states, Zordon you have taught us what truth, honor, and real courage are all about. We don't want to abandoned that now. Zack humorously adds, so in other words, you can't get rid of us! Everyone laughs. Zordon is very pleased to hear them say those things. The world is very lucky to have you and so am I. May the power protect you always. Alpha 5 walks up from behind them sneezing. Alpha 5 walks between them and stops in front of them. Alpha 5 apologizes to them, he has caught a computer virus. Sneezing, Alpha 5 walks away. Jason places his hand out. Zack places his hand on top of Jason's, followed by Trini, Kimberly, and Billy. They leap into the air, shouting Power Rangers!
