I'm back, and with an all new chapter. Due to several things keeping me very occupied I haven't had much time to work on this story. So, to make up for it I am happy to present my biggest chapter yet. At the end of it I shall cover a few different notes. Please enjoy and review :)

The Spread of Chaos

Drip. Drip. Drip. The monotonous sound greeted Billy as he came to. Drip. Drip. Drip. Chancing a small stretch, he suppressed a wince as pain greeted him, a jolt going through his leg. His mind raced to catch up on events. Vaguely, he recalled a building falling upon him as he desperately searched for his comrades. Drip. Drip. Drip. Still groggy, he tried to eye his surroundings with hazy vision, making out a rather dreary room. Despite all his efforts, Billy slowly fell back into unconsciousness, the only sound being a slow drip...drip...drip.

Mariner Bay

Ryan paced the small living quarters, there had been no word from Dana and Carter yet. Not since they had called to say they had arrived safely. A small reassurance that, and yet he hated not knowing more. Something about all this felt wrong, something. He was not sure how to explain the feeling, keeping it silent from the others until he could. Passing the floor length mirror once more, he was greeted not by his own reflection but that of Diabolico.

"Ryan. So good to see you again" the demon murmured smoothly.

"You" Ryan breathed. "What are you doing here!"

"I merely wish to help you, if you are willing to trust me" Diabolico reached out a golden hand to clasp on Ryan's shoulder.

"Trust you! Why should I after all you put me through?" He eyed the demon, shrugging out of the reflection's reach.

Diabolico chuckled, "Because. I have much to gain in doing so, and because you will need all the help you can get" He paused a moment before giving a wry grin, "Sleep on it"

Before he could respond the demon shifted into a golden whisp and flew out of the mirror, shattering it. Ryan raised his hands to shield himself from the shards as he jolted awake in his chair to the frightened looks of the other Lightspeed rangers. He looked around the room, taking it all in. As his eyes set on his father, he realized that he had dozed off during a briefing.

"I'm sorry...it's just...we have been working so hard and with training.." His face colored in embarrassment, though was saved momentarily as Miss Fairweather walked into the room.

Ryan looked over and noticed how she too had the same fatigued look to her face, dark circles under her eyes. Yet she still stood with determination somehow, the source of it revealed with her message that brought a new hope to him.

"They're ready"

The Animarium

Princess Shayla walked through the forest on the Animarium, Merrick close behind her. It was all so wonderful, getting to be with him again, singing to the Deer. Yet. It filled her heart with sadness to know why.

"Princess, you look so sad. Please, cheer up. Whatever it is that has woken you, I am sure that we can handle it" said Merrick, as he caught up to her.

"Oh Merrick...I am happy. Happy to see all of you again" she said, gesturing to the other Wild Force ranger as they approached the couple.

"But you are not happy because it means there is more evil?" Max asked, saying it all in a rush. "Right?"

Shayla gave a nod, "Yes...and no. I always knew that evil was around before I met all of you, and...a part of me knew there would still be evil in the world when I went to sleep again" she slowly seated herself on a bench. "However, deep down I was aware that somehow it would be alright. That there would always be Power Rangers to defend our world"

"Then...why are you so sad?" Merrick asked, sitting beside her as he peered into her eyes worriedly. "There have always been rangers to fight evil, and there always will be. Why is this different?"

"Because...because now there will be pain in the world, and I can't help. I only know of to defeat the Orgs..but somehow Master Org is alive, and I don't know who did it, or how" she gave a small shrug,

The rangers all stood there silently as the Princess' words sank in. The silence was broken by a familiar voice.

"Now now, don't be so down in the dumps. Not when you have us around" came a female voice.

"Yes! Because we, the worldly travelers are back in town and ready to help!" came a second.

Whirling to face the pair, the rangers were greeted by Jindrax and Toxica. Shayla rose from her seat, watching the mixed reactions from her friends. Taylor and Alyssa assuming defensive stances, while Cole strode forward towards them.

"You...you two came...to help us?" Shayla called out softly.

"Like I said" Jindrax replied with a flourish, "We are worldly travelers, and we know quite a bit about what's going on these days"

Toxica glided across to Cole, looking up into his eyes. "I know we may be heartless Orgs. But that was in the past. Let us help you and..perhaps in some way we can redeem ourselves for what we did to you"

Cole glanced back to the Princess with uncertainty. "Princess, what do you think?"

Shayla took a deep breath, closing her eyes a moment before nodding. "I think they deserve the chance. Let's at least hear what they have to say, and we will take it slowly from there"

Aquitar

Andros and Cassie slowly made their way down the ruined streets of Aquitar. From what they had seen, everything was in ruins. Buildings collapsing in upon themselves, others with jagged holes in the once domed roofs. Cassie gave a small wince, looking away as they passed another pile of rubble that covered a still body. So much destruction, so much death had occurred here. She wondered to herself,

"What if we could have helped save these people" she gave a start as Andros answered, not even aware that she had spoken the thought aloud.

"I don't think we could have saved them all, Cass. We could have tried our best...but sometimes you can't save everyone" he said sadly.

"Andros...first Centaur B, and now here. What if Earth is next? Will we be too late to get there too...what if it's already happening and..." she cut off as the thought became too much.

"I don't have all the answers...but I know this. We will save Earth from this fate" Andros looked over to smile at her, "We did it once when we defeated Dark Specter. We can do it again"

Flickers of movement caught her eye. Cassie slowed to a stop, touching Andros' arm to warn him. Again another flash of movement from further down the paved street, this time from behind a cart that lay on it's side.

"Is anybody there? We're here to help" she called down to the overturned cart. Another flash of movement, closer this time.

A female Aquitan emerged carefully, face smudged. "Who are you?" she asked as she met their eyes.

"My name is Cassie, and this is Andros. We're friends of Billy's...do you know him?" she glanced at Andros as the woman lowered her head.

"I know Billy, but myself and the others lost track of him in the attack" she raised her head again, "My name is Delphine, please come with me, we have set up a small base close by. We will speak more there"

Silver Hills

Bridge slammed his fist against the wall. He had looked so stupid back there, falling asleep in the middle of that meeting and having to explain how he had a 'vision' of what was going to happen. He had excused himself from the group, gathering his team to explain it more to them. He turned to face them, thankful that they at least believed him.

"Alright guys. I know how crazy it sounds, but we need to keep an eye out for this. Commander, do you have any suggestions on how we should proceed?" he looked over to his old friend.

Sky looked up from his seat, "First off...since we are no longer at home, I want you all to drop the formality. At least while we're here" he grinned. "But I do think I have a few ideas..."

"Good" said Jen, the pink ranger for Time Force. She approached the SPD rangers with a nod. "I am sorry about the Captain and what he said back there. But I think we need to take everything seriously until we can determine our situation"

She eyed the fellow rangers from the future. An odd group she had decided initially. A dog and a cat were their leader and weapons expert. An android girl named Sophie their green ranger...and then there were Jack and Z. The ex-thieves who now donned the Blue and Yellow suits. Odd indeed, and yet they were rangers. They were..family, in a way. That was good enough for her.

Jen listened as Wes gave the group a wide smile, "I know this will be hard, so many of us are used to leading our own team. But we can make this work, we have to if there's any chance of success. Now about these ideas of yours, let's hear them"

"Well" started the young man. "First of all, and I know that you Time Force rangers may not agree, but I believe that this Captain Logan of yours needs to step down. He may have lead you in the future, but things have changed"

"And just who do you suggest take over?" Jen asked hesitantly. "We need someone to lead us, and I am hesitant about messing with the order of things. Not when there's work to be done"

Sky gave a small, soothing gesturing. "I think we should. The original leaders of each team. Myself and Bridge. You or Wes, since I am unsure which of you is the proper leader, and Scott can lead his team. It's what we know best and it's what works for us. Right now having a...non ranger try and lead us, try and lead people he doesn't know is not working. As leaders, we know the skills and weaknesses of each ranger we've worked with"

Smiling at Sky, both Jen and Wes gave nods of approval. "Agreed. But I will tell him" reaching over, she gave Wes' hand a small squeeze. "Now. That still leaves us with this vision..."

Captain Logan and listened from behind the doorway as Jen and the others spun their plans. So, he was to be removed from power. After all he had done to secure her and her friends safe passage back to this horrid time, this was how she was to repay him? He growled under his breath, hurt by the lack of loyalty he was being shown. Shaking his head angrily he began to head for his quarters, he was not about to let some strangers undo his carefully laid plans. "Soon" he muttered.

Unseen by Logan, a shadow watched him. Waiting until he was long gone, the person carefully slid away to think about what they had just seen.

Briarwood

Chaos greeted Xander as he arrived at work, or at least what was left of the Rockporium. A charred building stood in ruins, it's neighbors blackened by the blaze that had followed the explosion. Emergency vehicles littered half the street as the firefighters worked to put out the remnants of fire. His heart sank in his chest, worry settling in as he began to push through the crowd to find his friends. Where were they? Were they alright? He spotted Madison, sitting on a bench just beyond the fringe of the mob of people.

"Madison! Maddy!" he called out, shoving free as he ran towards his friend.

"Xander!" she ran towards him, clutching him in a tight hug. The moment passed, before she promptly hit his shoulder. "Why! Why didn't you answer your phone! We tried to call you to see if you were alright!"

"I...I'm..sorry, it wasn't even with me until I left the house" he stammered, surprised at the reaction. "Madison...what's happened, is everyone alright?"

She gave a loud sniff, and scrubbed her eyes. "We came here and...there was this monster...it fired at us. Some...some of us ran to engage it and then...it ran into the store...I..." she trailed off, hugging him again.

"Hey, hey, it's going to be alright. You'll see" he murmured soothingly.

Madison stepped away from him, eyes brimming. "How can it be? He's dead"

Xander barely heard anything else as she filled him in, barely holding back the tears. Toby had still been in the store...waiting for him to get to work. His legs gave out as he sank to his knees.

"Impossible...he can't be...he's just hurt I'm sure of it. Maybe he got out in time" he began. No, said a small voice in the back of his mind. Toby is dead and you know it. He looked up as Madison reached out to help him up.

"Time to go. Udonna needs us before we can check on the others"

The Hartford Mansion

Andrew Hartford stood before the four familiar faces. He gave a grim smile as he gestured towards a large map of the state.

"I know all of you thought we were finished with being rangers. But it seems once again the four of you are needed. So I ask this. Will you help once again?"

Ronny took a step forward, and spoke for the group. "Mister Hartford. Is that even a question? Of course we will" she shook her head with a sigh, "You should know better by now. Once a ranger, always a ranger"

"Good. Because according to my friend, we're going to need to get everything up and running as quickly possible"

"Just...who exactly are we fighting?" piped up Will. "I mean. If we're going to do this, we should at least know that ahead of time"

Hartford hesitated before answering. "Well. That's the thing Will. It seems...monsters...that past rangers have defeated are reappearing all over the state. Now, they are a concern but so is the question of who or what brought them back" he noticed as Spencer entered, though kept focused on the rangers.

"Ok. But what about Mack and Rose? Where are they in all this, I figured Mack would already be off working on this" Will continued, "And zords, do we get those back?"

"Ah, sir" Spencer started, shuffling forward before Andrew could reply. "Zords..shall take some time to get going. However, there is a more pressing matter. I just received a call from Rose over in Briarwood" the older man furrowed his brow, "I am unsure how to say this, but it seems there was an attack that resulted in casualties"

Angel Grove

"C'mon Zack! Hurry up!" Kim called out to her friend as they both rushed from her car into the Juice Bar. Rain still plagued the once sunny city. Kim wasn't sure she could remember the last time the weather had been normal here ever since this apparent monsoon season had hit.

"Aw, man. I don't think I can take this rain anymore!" her friend gave a shake as they entered the thankfully dry, youth center. "Jase, you still there man?" he fiddled with his cell phone, juggling it to a different ear.

Kim chuckled under her breath as Zack wandered to a table, still talking into the phone. Ever since Tommy had called she had not been sure how to process things. Monsters returning? And why did it have to be the Pudgy Pig? Definitely gross, she thought.

Snagging a pair of drinks from the counter, she wandered over to the table and pulled out a notebook. Flipping through she traced a finger down a long line of names of old friends and other fellow rangers.

"Let's see..." she murmured to herself, half listening to Zack's end of the call. "Kat and Tanya are still in Paris..." Justin. That's the one they were here for. Scanning the page she tried to find his address in her notes.

"Jase...hey Jase? What's going on?" Zack's face lined with slight worry.

Curious, Kim slid over and pressed her ear closer to the phone. Static dominated Jason's end of the line, the sounds of fighting cutting in and out. She took a deep breath, though it caught in her throat as an explosion greeted their ears before the line went dead.

"Kim. Let's go, he needs us" Zack started, halfway out of his seat as he spoke.

"Zack..." she took a light hold of his shoulders, "No. Jason...Jason can handle himself, and he has Trini with him. Here's what we'll do" she cut off his protests,

"Call Tommy and get him to send help. Meanwhile we need to find Justin, especially since he's alone and doesn't even know what's going on. He needs us a lot more right now"

"I...fine, you're right" he flipped his cell back open, quickly working to call Tommy.

Kim gave a relieved sigh, sitting back down as she calmed herself. Her friends could handle themselves. They were going to be ok, she thought to herself. Though in the back of her mind she wondered if she made the right choice.

Jungle Karma Pizza

Camille paced the back room, deep in thought. Over the last week there had been many signs trouble was brewing. Then the message had came, delivered by her old master himself.

"Traitors will not survive long, Camille. Pray you chose the right side" was all he had said.

Turning on her heel, she was startled to find Jarrod watching her. She had confided in him the message, knowing that he too may be a target. Working in secret, they both had spent long hours increasing their time training, and tracking the events as they appeared. The more they had learned, the more Jarrod had begun to push her to take it to RJ.

"Camille," he started. "It's getting worse out there. You know we can't do this alone"

"I know that. But once the others are involved, there's a very strong chance any of them could be killed in this"

"They could get killed faster by not knowing. It's a risk, but they deserve the chance to decide for themselves. We need to tell RJ at least" Jarrod continued, crossing the room.

A new voice startled them both, Camille sucked in a small breath at who it was.

"Tell me what?" RJ asked in a quizzical manner, head tilting to the side as he peered over steepled fingers at them. "Tell me...about all these strange events happening across the state? About how it's escalated to an explosion?"

"I...it's not just that. Dai Shi came to me. He warned me that traitors will not survive this" Camille said, proud that she was able to discuss it without shaking anymore.

"Traitors? That would suggest there are more out there, than just the two of you then" RJ looked the two of them over a long moment. "Get the others. If a war is coming, we best be prepared"

Without another word she gave a nod to Jarrod and hurried to the task set. One thing was for certain, if she was not going to survive, she fully intended to take as many down with her possible.

Reefside

Carter surveyed the streets as he sped towards Jason's last known coordinates. From the sound of things he and Dana may be too late to help.

"There!" Dana called out, pointing down a side road.

Swerving to a stop, they barely took in the sight as they rushed to lend aid. Trini, backed against a wall as she fended off several clay men. Jason grappling with the pig monster they had heard so much about.

"Lightspeed! Rescue!" the couple shouted, tapping their morphers as their suits shimmered onto them.

Drawing her blaster, Dana moved forward and began to fire a series of shots at the distracted Putty Patrollers. Once she had their attention, she rushed in to close the gap, flipping her blaster into it's blade mode.

"You alright?" she asked, slashing the nearest enemy.

"With you guys here, how could we not be?" the asian woman grinned. With renewed confidence, the yellow ranger snagged a kick and tossed her attacker into a pile of barrels.

Across the road, Carter had pulled the Pudgy Pig away and sent it stumbling back. Glancing to the side he flashed the thumbs up to Jason before charging the monster with his blade. Before he could reach it, the monster gave a gurgling chuckle as a portal appeared behind it, removing the Pudgy Pig from battle.

"Next time" Carter said, turning back to the others. "Next time it won't be so lucky. How about we get you two back to Tommy"

Wind Academy

Blake rushed through the forest towards the academy. Finally emerging from it as he watched smoke billow in thick streaks from the burning wreckage of the main building. Students swarmed the main training area as they defended themselves against a host of strange bat like creatures. Several monsters littered the area, laughing as they took turns striking out at those who came at them.

Before he could rush in to aid, a hand caught his shoulder and pulled him back. He turned to face Cam and the others.

"What are you doing! We should be in there helping!" he exclaimed.

"I know that" Cam said smoothly as he held up a small velvet bag "But don't you think your morpher will help make a better difference in there?"

Blake gave a wide grin, reaching in to pull out his morpher, "How? When?"

"Doesn't matter right now" Shane butted in, as he reached in to hand out the rest of them. "Let's get Sensei and as many students out of there as possible"

Giving a firm nod, the rangers strapped on their morphers and shouted their battle cries.

"Ninja Storm! Ranger Form!"

"Thunder Storm! Ranger Form!"

"Samurai Storm! Ranger Form!"

With a flash of light, the rangers sped into battle, drawing their blades as they slashed out at the creatures. At first, the Batlings were confused at this new flurry of attacks that were thinning their numbers.

A large monster, cackled with delight as it began to unleash it's special ability. Wind academy students began to turn to solid stone where it walked, leaving a trail of statues in it's wake. Blake gave it no warning as he appeared before it, lashing out with his thunder staff. Tapping into his ability to streak, he appeared again quickly behind it lashing out several more times until his foe finally fell to the ground.

Quickly, Blake scanned the battle field. Many had begun to help the injured to fall back where Cam and Hunter were clearing a way out, pushing back the unrelenting foes. Turning he noticed Shane and Dustin as both tapped into their powers to keep the closer monsters at bay, one appeared to be a black knight, the other a giant worm. Sheathing his staff he called out for his personal weapon, the navy antler, and streaked across the field to charge the worm. Catching it off guard, his antler released a large amount of electricity into it. Leaping backwards, he avoided the explosion of sparks that came from it's chest.

"Now! While it's down!" he called out to the others, watching as Shane and Dustin pulled out their Hawk Blaster and Lion Hammer, the air and earth rippled as his comrades released powerful blasts at the weakened monster.

The worm toppled for a moment before collapsing in a ball of fire. Several of the bat creatures flew through the air from the force of the blast. That's when Blake noticed the other monsters, including the one he had downed were beginning to fall back. Though not at a price. Many black garbed bodies littered the area, the academy stood in ruins, a charred hole replacing the front entrance.

Powering down, along with the others, Black's phone began to ring. Fishing it out of his pocket, he answered to the sound of a distraught Tori.

"Tori...Tori, what's wrong?" he asked, head still swimming from the brief battle. The news she delivered bringing him back down to earth.

Terra Venture – Orbiting Mirinoi

Kendrix fled through the darkened streets, searching frantically for her friends. It had all started two days ago, a flood of patients showing signs of an infection. She knew she had heard about it somewhere before, but where? That's when it had happened, those who were infected began to...mutate into bug creatures. Before they could be restrained the infection spread. Now, here she was, separated from her friends in the middle of the night.

Damon had suggested they go and retrieve their Quasar sabers, but getting out was proving to be harder than they thought. Creeping silently, Kendrix flattened herself against a wall as she peered around a corner. Just down the street a patrol of the bug creatures were stalking towards her position. Closing her eyes, she muttered under her breath and looked back to see that they had vanished. That was when she heard something behind her. Spinning, she took a defensive stance and prepared to lash out.

"Whoa! Whoa..Kendrix it's me..." yelped a startled Kai. Hands raised protectively. "I saw you creeping about but didn't want to yell out to you"

"Kai" she breathed a sigh of relief. "It's good to see you, but we need to move. There were a few coming this way but I lost them" she chanced a look back around the corner.

"C'mon, we need to get to the hanger. Damon's found us a transport but we can't wait any longer" her friend murmured.

Dusting her hands, Kendrix nodded and followed him closely. The two slowly made their way down the streets, sticking to the shadows. Every so often a swarm of the bugs would rush past, crying out as they sought their next victim. It was not until a half hour later, that Kendrix felt calmer as they slid the hanger door shut.

"There you are! I was worried about you, Kendrix" exclaimed Maya, as she gave her a tight hug.

"Yeah, it's great to see you're still you. But can we please get out of here?" piped up Damon, as he clambered onto the transport.

As Kendrix went to board, she saw Mike and Leo racing towards them. Several creatures in tow.

"Go! Go!" Leo shouted, turning to use a scavenged rifle to blast the closer bugs back.

The engines began to rev as Kendrix raced to her seat, the small ship slowly rose into the air.

"Damon! Wait! They aren't onboard yet" she yelled towards the cockpit.

Unstrapping herself, she pressed the button for the back ramp to lower. Seconds later two sets of hands grasped the edge, straining to keep hold.

"Maya, get ready to shut the ramp, Kai help me get them up!" she called over to the blue ranger as she made her way down to her friends.

"Fancy meeting you here" Leo grinned as she helped to pull him up. Shaking her head at Mike as he too gave a grin once safely on board.

Kendrix could only chuckle as they flew out of the hanger, finally safe from the threat of being infected. Making her way to the cockpit, she poked her head in.

"Everything ok Damon?" she asked quietly.

"I..yeah. I'm sorry about that...it was just a close one" he muttered, wiping his face.

"Don't worry about it" she smiled. "The important thing is we're alright, and now we can try to help change people back"

Glancing at the radar, she noticed several small blips coming towards them. "Damon...what are those?"

"Ah...more trouble...you'd better hang on" he replied, fiddling with several buttons.

Falling into her seat, she held on as the ship began to shake from the blasts. Within seconds it became apparent that they weren't going to have a good landing. Looking out the small window, she watched as they entered the atmosphere the ground rushing closer. She heard Damon give a yell as he tried to slow the ship's descent and level them off. The sound of his voice was swallowed up by the crash of the tree's around them, the sounds of the ship hitting the earth as it sent clouds of debris into the air.

Then all was quiet.

Africa

The golden plains shimmered before Aisha as she stood atop a large boulder that overlooked the fields of the village. All was peaceful here. This small village was a far cry from her old life in the city, every day it was hard work but well worth it. Children streamed past her with shrieks of joy as they launched colorful kites into the sky, earning a wide grin from her.

Yet. She felt as if she were needed back home. Perhaps she was just a bit homesick, missing her friends she thought to herself. The sound of footsteps approaching reminded her that she was supposed to be helping back in the village. But when she turned, it was Rocky that faced her and not one of the elders. Standing there, with his cocky grin and a pack slung over one shoulder he looked just as she remembered him.

"Rocky!" her eyes widened with joy, "Is it really you!"

He chuckled as she ran up to him, "It is, it is. Ahhh, it's good to see you again Aisha. Been far too long"

Wrapping him in a tight hug, she looked into his eyes, "While it's good to see you...something tells me you didn't come all the way to Africa just to say 'Hello', am I right?"

"I wish this was a fun trip, but...there's trouble back home. Tommy thinks it might be worse than when that Dark Specter was in town" he looked down at her, and brushed her cheek "I hate to do this. To drag you away from here, but we need you"

She flushed at his touch, and stood there quietly a long moment before returning her gaze to him. "It will be hard leaving this place...but if I am needed, then I will answer that call and help"

Paris

Kat and Tanya hurried through the airport as they sought out their gate. The former pink ranger lead the way, as they weaved in and out of small clusters of people. The call from Tommy had been hard for her, the way things were and now to get a call out of the blue with this kind of news. Tanya had been nothing but supportive of her decision to return to America, even cutting her vacation short so that they could get back sooner.

Minutes later the two women settled into their seats as the captain came over the intercom with his usual message. Kat sadly looked out the window, at the city she was going to be leaving behind and that she had called home.

A nudge from Tanya pulled her from her thoughts, "Hey, it's alright. We'll be back here in no time, you can count on it"

She turned to smile at Tanya, "You're right. Maybe some of the others will come back with us as well"

As the plane began to roll down the runway, Kat peered out the window once more. A streak of movement in the sky caught her attention. Then several more streaks flew past. Odd...she thought. I wonder what those are.

"Hey..Tanya, take a look at these" she said, adjusting herself so that they could both peer out the window.

The plane shuddered as it began to level off in the air. "Take a look at what?" she asked. Her face a mixture of confusion and curiosity.

The streaks of movement slowed, just long enough for the two to make it out. A group of silver ships, the wings equipped with cannons.

"Oh god" Kat breathed, as the ships began to open fire on the city. All she and Tanya could do was watch as their plane rumbled off. The sounds of explosions heard over the dull roar of the engines.

Corinth

Dr. K sighed at the terminal she was working at, the base largely empty as they worked with a skeleton crew. Vasquez gave her a grin from her own terminal.

"Too quiet for your liking Doctor?" the woman asked.

"Much" she replied, tapping her work pad.

No sooner had they spoken, alarms began to blare followed by the rumble of the building as it shook.

"What on earth..."

"K! What is going on here!" the Colonel barked as he rushed into the room.

"It appears that Venjix has...left behind one of his warriors" she reported, honing in on the robot as it smashed it's way through the halls of the base.

She barely noticed as Corporal Hicks hurried to the work station next to her, and began unlocking the doors of all things.

"Corporal! What do you think you are doing!" she hurried over, pushing him aside as she attempted to undo his damage.

A metallic voice answered her, "He's doing what he was programmed to. Or were you unaware that Venjix has placed hybrids here in your precious city?"

Before she knew what was happening, Vasquez had drawn her weapon and aimed it at the Colonel. Hicks quickly recovered, moving to restrain Truman with a set of handcuffs.

"What do you want?" she asked, glaring at the robot.

"You. I was left behind to ensure the rangers had followed. But I am sure my new master shall reward me if I bring him the two of you to use as he pleases."

A shiver ran down her spine as the new enemy and his brainwashed partners began to laugh. The last thing she remembered was the blow to her head, before she crumpled to the floor unconcious.

General things of note. Due to the Sentinel Knight reactivating Tori, Kira and Adam's powers I can only assume it goes for all of them. Even then, Cam has been shown in the previous chapter to be busy working on getting everything up and running, as has Hayley and Miss Fairweather. Corinth scene, this was a result of my working on this fic and having the RPM rangers go back in time before I was aware there had been a new General added in. By now the majority of the rangers are up and running. This chapter was my way of updating what's been happening in all the locations we've been to, as well as getting other rangers caught up to speed.

Monsters included in this chapter are:

Weaveworm/Scorpina's pet worm - From the first season of MMPR, and is the first monster to be destroyed. One down, a lot to go.

Pudgy Pig with a small group of Putties. - The Putties used here were the basic Rita Repulsa variety. Zedd's will most likely replace these in future chapters.

Clawbster - From Mystic Force. This one was taken down by Blake, but surived. Is able to turn people to stone as demonstrated in this chapter.

Knasty Knight - From MMPR season 1. This is the Knight that is present during the Wind Academy attack.

Batlings - A small note. I attempted to refer to them as Batlings when they were not being seen through Blake's PoV. Hoping it worked well enough.

Barillian Bug - While the original was not seen on screen, it was the cause of the widespread infection on Terra Venture. First seen in Space.

That should cover everything for a now. Hoping to get the next installment up and in the works as soon possible.
