*Disclaimer: I don't own Power Rangers. I'm not assoiated with the company
that does.
*Author's notes: I would just like to say sorry for all the mistakes I've made. I'm trying really, really, really hard to make this fic worth reading. Thanks to all those who told me of my spelling errors, and gave me suggestions. Hope this Chapter is better than the last! As always, Read and Review!
~On Terra Venture...~
"Alright, I ask again. Who are you?" Kai said.
"More like, What are you?" Maya asked.
The head was that of a skeleton. Although, it was not an ordinary skeleton head. Inside the eye sockets was Red glow.
"Let me get one thing straight with you. I did not give Trakeena the Pink Quasar Saber."
"Really? I could have sworn it was you that got the sword on top of the hill." Damon said sarcastically.
"That part is correct. I, indeed, was the one to get the Saber on the hill."
"Alright, then how did Trakeena get it?"
"She managed to teleport me to her." The metallic voice lied. "Once I was standing before her as her prisoner, she stole the sword from me."
"Give us one good reason why we should believe you." Leo demanded.
"Well, for one, You've got no proof that I'm lying."
The Rangers looked at one another, then huddled together.
"What do you think?" Maya asked.
"I don't know, but he's right. We have no proof that he's lying." Mike said.
"In case you all haven't noticed, the insides of his eye sockets are glowing Red." Kai said.
"Yeah Kai, it was kind of hard to miss." Damon said taking another peek at the creature.
"Let's see what he has to say." Maya decided.
They all nodded their heads in agreement, and went back to their origanal positions facing the creature.
"Do you trust me?" It asked.
"We don't know if we should believe you or not." Leo replied.
"Listen, I came here to help you get the sword back."
"Then why did you try to run?" Mike asked.
"I was afraid that all of you wouldn't believe me, and that you would try to destroy me before I had a chance to explain myself. It seems that I had the first part right."
~In Trakeena's lair...~
"I can't wait til I get my hands on that sword." Deviot said to himself as Kelgar walked in the room.
"What was that Deviot?"
"Nothing of your concern."
"If it's about the sword, it is my concern."
"Look." Deviot said getting angry. "If I say it's nothing of your concern, then you need to mind your own business. Unless you have a death wish. Then, I'll understand."
Kelgar said nothing, only gave a death stare as he slowly back out of the room.
~On KO-35...~
"Are you guys ready?" Andros asked.
They all nodded their heads.
"Let's Rocket!" They all called as they entered their morphing codes.
Once all were morphed, they got on their Galaxy Gliders, and started toward Terra Venture.
~On Terra Venture...~
"Alright." Leo said speaking for the group. "We're going to trust you, for now."
"No funny business either." Damon said.
"If you try anything? We'll destroy you on the spot." Mike said.
"I can understand your reasons for your actions and beliefs. In time, you'll learn to trust me."
Maya looked around the office. It seemed like everything was different now that Kendrix was gone. Then, she found herself staring into the glowing red eyes of the creature. Something didn't feel right. It felt like she was entranced by some sort of spell. She was brought back to reality by Kai.
"Maya? You still with us?"
"Huh? Oh, yeah."
"We were all going to the control room."
"Kai is going to try to locate the Saber again." Damon said.
Maya nodded her head, and they all walked out. Although, before she left, Maya looked at the creature who now had the hood pulled back over his head. She heard a low hissing sound, and quickly rushed out of the room.
~In Trakeena's lair...~
"Villamax? I think Deviot is planning something." Kelgar said as he and Villamax were walking to Trakeena's room.
"How so?" Villamax asked.
"Well, I was spying on him, and he said something about the Pink Quasar Saber."
"That doesn't mean he's planning something."
"But still, I think we should tell Trakeena."
"No, we must have proof first."
~On Terra Venture...~
Kai was working on locating the Saber, when they heard a crash come from the hallway.
"I'll go check it out." Leo volunteered.
He crept slowly into the dimly lighted hallway. He stopped when he saw a figure standing there in a Red suit.
"Who's there?" He demanded.
"It's us. Andros, Ashley, Carlos, T.j., and Cassie."
"Hey guys!" Leo said running up to them.
"Who is it, Leo?" Mike said walking into the hallway.
Instead of answering, Leo and the others walked up to them. When they all went in the controll room, it was a happy reunion for everyone. That is, everyone except Cassie. To Cassie, it was just a painful reunion that brought back painful memories. When they saw that Cassie wasn't celebrating, they stopped.
"You okay, Cassie?" Damon asked walking up to her.
"Yeah, I'm fine." She said, although deep inside she knew she was not.
"Hey guys, we have something you need to see." Leo said.
"First, we have something we need to tell you." Andros said. "Cassie had a dream. We think it might mean something."
Cassie told her dream in detail, and everyone listened quietly until she finished.
"That's funny." Maya said after a long pause.
"What is?" Ashley asked.
"I had the exact dream, except I was there."
"What do you think it means?" Mike asked.
"I don't know." Andros replied.
"You said you had something you wanted to show us." T.j. said to Leo.
"Oh yeah. I almost forgot." Leo said jumping up from his seat.
Leo led them out of the room, and brought them to the Captain's office. Once they were all inside and the door was closed, Leo once again pulled back the hood.
"What is that thing?" Carlos asked.
All the others were speechless. The skeleton head looked around at all the Rangers, and stopped at Cassie. Cassie didn't know how to react. She only stared into the glowing, red eyes, as if she was entranced.
"Cassie?" Ashley asked slowly walking up to her.
Ashley couldn't get her attention, so she laid a hand on her shoulder. Cassie gasped, and jumped.
"You okay?"
"Yeah." Cassie replied a little bit confused.
Maya was staring at the floor, until she heard the hissing sound again.
"Do you guys hear that?"
"Hear what?" Andros asked.
"I hear it." Cassie said looking at Maya.
"What is it? I don't hear anything." T.j. said.
"It's like a low, hissing sound." Maya said.
Leo was about to say something, when they heard footsteps outside the door.
Andros ran to the door, opened it, and there stood Zhane.
"Who is it?" Damon asked.
"It's Zhane." Andros replied as he and Zhane walked into the room.
~Somewhere on a distant Planet...~
There were black, cloaked figures everywhere. Flames of fire were coming out of the ground, and on top of a hill, stood a cloaked figure over 7 ft. tall. All the figures down below in the flames were talking, and there were hissing sounds everywhere.
"Silence!" The tall figure on top of the hill.
It had a very deep voice, and sounded powerful. Clearly, it was the leader. As soon as the words were spoken, everyone became silent.
"As you know, our greatest warrior has gone on a journey. A journey to find the Pink Quasar Saber."
Everyone gasped when he said Quasar Saber.
"But what if he fails?" A voice shouted the crowd.
"He will not fail. You forget his special gift."
~On Terra Venture...~
"So, are you sure we can trust this thing?" Zhane whispered to Andros after Leo finished telling the story.
"We have no choice." Andros whispered back.
"Are you ready to free me from these ropes?" The metalic voice asked as he turned his head toward Damon.
Everyone looked at each other questioningly. After a long pause, Leo stepped foward and cut the ropes.
The skeleton stood up, and everyone got in an alert position.
"I'm not going to harm you." The skeleton said.
Everyone got out of their alert positions, and calmed down.
~In Trakeena's lair...~
Kelgar and Villamax were walking to Deviot's room, when they ran into Trakeena.
"Hello, Trakeena!" Villamax said cheerily.
Trakeena just rolled her eyes, and continued on her way.
"Villamax, stay focused. If Deviot get's the sword, then we're all in big trouble."
They walked as silently as they could through the dark hallway, until they came to a door. They carefully opened it, and Deviot was nowhere to be found.
"Where is he?" Villamax asked Kelgar.
"Right here." A voice said from behind them.
That voice instantly filled them with fear. Slowly, they turned around and saw Deviot standing right behind them.
~On Terra Venture...~
It was now 9:00 p.m. Everyone made their sleeping arrangements. Ashley and Cassie would stay in Maya's room, and they boys were to stay in Leo, Damon, and Kai's room. They had to pull out some spare cots, but soon everyone was comfortably asleep. The skeleton was to stay inside of a special containment cell, but he stuck his finger in the special lock, gave it a twist, and the door opened. In the girls room, Cassie tossed and turned uncomfortably in her sleep. It was when she heard a hissing sound out in the hall, that she woke up. Slowly and silently, she tip-toed out of the room. The hallway floor was cold on her bare feet, and the darkness surrounded her. She had an awful feeling, but she thought she had better check it out.
"Who's there?" She nervously called out.
The only reply she got was the hissing sound growing louder. Instead of calling out the question again, she walked on farther into the darkness. The farther she walked, the louder the hissing sound became. Suddenly, she bumped into something hard. It swiftly turned around, and Cassie saw two glowing red eyes. She gasped, turned around, and ran back to her room. Once she was inside, she slammed the door; waking up Ashley and Maya.
"What happened?" Maya said sleepily.
"He's out." Cassie said.
"Who is?" Ashley asked.
"The skeleton thing. He's out. I just ran into him in the hall."
"Let's go." Maya said as she, Ashley, and Cassie went to the containment cell.
When they got there, the skeleton was locked in his cage. The three girls startled him, and he jumped.
"What is it?" He asked.
"You were out in the hallway." Cassie said confused.
Maya and Ashley looked at each other worriedly. Cassie opened her mouth to say something else, and all the guys came running up.
"What are you doing here?" Maya asked.
"We heard a door slam, and figured the thing might have escaped." Kai answered.
"What are you guys doing here?" Damon asked.
"Cassie--" Ashley started but Cassied interupted.
"I ran into this skeleton in the hallway!" Cassie exclaimed still confused.
Kai went over to check the lock.
"Everything is fine with the lock. There's no way he could have gotten out." Kai said to Cassie.
"No!" Cassie said angerily. "He was in the hallway!"
"Cassie, maybe it was a dream." Andros said.
"Or maybe you're just seeing things." Zhane added.
"No! I know what I saw!" Cassie yelled angerily as she stormed away.
Everyone sighed, and went back to bed. Cassie laid awake all night.
~In Trakeena's lair...~
"I though I told you what I do is no business of yours." Deviot said furiously.
"I know that, but--" Kelgar started.
"No buts! You have disobeyed me, and you will pay."
"Who said we had to obey you?" Villamax questioned.
"I did!" Deviot said and started to throw punches at Kelgar.
Kelgar blocked all except the hardest one. He was knocked down on the floor. He was about to attack Villamax, when Trakeena stepped in.
"Enough!" She yelled. "This is nonsense."
Villamax and Kelgar walked away, and Trakeena went back the way she came. Deviot went back into his room, and started to go over his plan.
"Let's see, I'll sneak into Trakeena's room while she's sleeping, and snatch the sword! That seems easy enough." Deviot said confidently.
~On Terra Venture...~
While everyone ate the next morning, Cassie stood watching the containment cell.
"What?" The skeleton asked Cassie.
"Why don't you just admit it?" Cassie asked angerily.
"Admit what?" It asked innocently.
"That you were in the hallway."
"Why would I want to lie?"
"Lie?! It would be the truth!" Cassie screamed.
Everyone stared at Cassie. Cassie rolled her eyes, and stormed off again. As soon as he was done eating, T.j. went over to the skeleton.
"So, do you have a name?" He asked.
"Yes, I do." It replied.
"What is it?"
"My name is GalactaFire, but everyone calls me Fire for short."
"Okay." T.j. said walking off.
~Somewhere on a distant Planet...~
The fire was now raging everywhere.
"Tomorrow" The leader said. "Is when the fight for the Quasar Saber will take place."
"The gift will aid Fire very much." Said one from the crowd.
Everyone started cheering, and yelling battle cries. The fire raged above their heads, and came to the feet of the leader.
