| - Out in deep space, on the planet of Edenoi. Count Dregon's Plague Patrol was forcing the Edenoites to plant toxic gas into the planet's surface. Each Edenoite is wearing a gas mask as they dig into the ground under the watch of several guards. "Grandfather there is another one of Dregon's Plague Sentries on the horizon, I wish I could pull his horns off of him." Dex stated The Sentry rides a horse atop a hill nearby, laughing at the Edenoites. "The poisonous gasses they dig up only hasten the destruction of their planet." The sentry stated "You'll get your chance one day Dex." Lexian, the planet's leader and Dex's grandfather told him 'I wish Paul was here.' Dex thought to himself Alpha sits on the floor of the Command Center, feeling really down. "Oh Ayi, yi, yi, yi, yi." Alpha cried a worried sigh "Poor Alpha I have never seen him this upset before R2." C-3PO whispered to R2 "Beep." R2 beeped sadly "Alpha what is troubling you so, how can we be of any help if you won't tell us what the problem is." Zordon told him "Oh Zordon I am afraid that no one can help." Alpha mentioned "There is only one way to find out. Please tell us Alpha what has happened?" Zordon asked is long time friend "Yes Alpha we are here to listen and help." C-3PO added "Beep, beep." R2 beeped Alpha then stands up. "I suppose you guys are right Zordon I was monitoring the Galactic Scanner when I picked up a distress signal from Edenoi." Alpha told them "Your home planet, no wonder this is troubling you Alpha I am well aware of your memory banks contains many fond memories of Edenoi." Zordon mentioned "There's more I was assembled on Edenoi by their leader Kind Lexian. I try to scan for him but I wasn't able to find any trace of him and it appears that Edenoi is under heavy attack." Alpha told them "Edenoi is very far away for now all we can do is continue to monitor and hope for more information." Zordon stated "Oh I know deep down in my circuits that something is terribly wrong." Alpha mentioned The Spider Base Spaceship floats around ominously. Inside, a small white floating robot known as Fact floats around. "All hands on deck, the lord of evil, Count Dregon is on the bridge." Fact told them Just then Count Dregon walks in "What do you all have to report?" Count Dregon asked "The attack is proceeding as expected according to plan." Doubleface informed him "Your plan is brilliant my Lord." Gork stated "What is your plan my lord?" Doubleface inquired Count Dregon turns away from them. "To destroy the planet Edenoi." Count Dregon stated I was at the Youth Center with the others minus Billy who is on his way here and Kimberly who is at home sick. I am currently on the phone with her. "Hey sis how you feeling today?" I asked through the phone as Luke and I are staying at Preston's and Stevie's house on mom's request. "Awful hold on a sec ok." Kimberly told me through the phone I do so as she is probably checking her temperature. I hear her sigh on the other. "I still have a temperature I really hate having the flu." Kimberly told me through the phone "Well just do what Dr. Mom told you get lots of rest and drink plenty of liquids I will call to check up on you later sis." I stated into the phone "I know say hi to the others for me." Kimberly told me through the phone "I will feel better sis." I told her into the phone "Thanks love you little brother." Kimberly told me through the phone "Love you to sis bye." I told her into the phone "Bye." Kimberly said through the phone We then hung up and I hand the phone back to Ernie and Richie. "Thanks a lot guys." I thanked them "Hey no problem Paul." Ernie told me "Yeah I hope she feels better soon." Richie mentioned "Thanks man." I stated I then walk back over to the table where Rocky, Adam, Tanya, Aisha, Kat, Ashley, Cassie, TJ, Carlos, Trini, Curtis, Zack, Preston, and Luke are sitting as Tommy and Jason are sparing over in another part of the Youth Center. "Hey so how is Kim doing?" Trini wondered "Well she still has a fever but she'll still live." I stated "Good I don't think I can handle staying at Preston and Stevie's much longer no offence guys." Luke mentioned "None taken man." Preston told him "So Paul how are you doing these days?" Zack wondered "What you mean?" I asked "Well seeing as how it will be one year since you came to Angle Grove is coming up this weekend, I just wanted to see if you were ok?" Zack asked Oh that well I knew I was going to be asked that sooner or later. "I'm hanging in there I haven't really thought much about it lately as you know how busy this last summer has been." I told him "Yeah for sure what with the Dragon Ball hunt and you and Luke training with the legend Master Roshi himself, and Adam, Jason, Tommy, Luke, you, and I competing in the World Martial Arts Tournament." Rocky mentioned "Yeah I know." I stated "Hey Paul I have been wanting to ask what is yours Stevie's, and Preston's hometown like?" TJ asked The three of us look at each other smirking before turning to him and the others that don't know about our hometown. "Well it's a quiet little town just thirty minutes north of Michigan's capital city of Lansing." I mentioned "Wow so was there ever a place like this your hometown?" Carlos wondered "Nope." Stevie, Preston, and I said at the same time Just then Billy came walking up to us as Jason and Tommy do too as they just finish sparing. Richie also came over putting down a drink in fort of me. "Hey what's up Billy?" Curtis asked "Hey I just contacted Alpha to check the clarity on the new chip that Paul, Luke, and I installed in our Communicators." Billy stated "And?" Richie asked "Well I'm not exactly sure but Alpha sounded different." Billy told us "How different Billy?" Kat wondered "Sad I guess, I mean I know it sounds weird and all because he is a robot and all but he definitely sounded down." Billy mentioned "He couldn't be lonely seeing as how 3PO and R2 are there. Do even robots get lonely?" Preston asked "He is more than just a robot to me." Aisha mentioned "To all of us." Zack agreed "Hey why don't we go pay him a little visit?" Tommy suggested "Yeah good idea." Jason agreed "Alright let's go then." I told them "Hey Ernie you mind if I take a long break?" Richie asked taking his apron off. "Yeah no problem Richie I can handle things." Ernie told him "Thanks." Richie thanked Ernie We all then walked out of the Youth Center Lord Zedd is monitoring the attack on Edenoi and he is not too happy with who is doing the attack. "Of all the rotten luck, why him?" Lord Zedd asked himself balling up his fist "Hey you're slipping Zedd the Power Rangers are down on Earth not out in space." Rita mentioned pointing in the other direction "I couldn't care less about them right now, as Count Dregon has reared his ugly head again. Him and his Spider Base are blasting some planet to rubble out in the Andromeda Sector." Lord Zedd stated "That's good Dregon is the evilest of evil and I like Count Dregon." Rita mentioned Lord Zedd ceases his spying and turns around from the balcony. "Well I hate him, and I hate Dregon more than I hate the Power Rangers." Lord stated Rita follows Lord Zedd to his throne. "What did you wake up on the wrong side of your Hyperbaric Chamber this morning?" Rita asked "For as long as long as I can remember, Count Dregon has been trying to one up me. We can't even conquer one measly little planet." Lord Zedd mentioned pointing towards Earth "Take a chill pill Zeddy and listen to me, Finster has been working on a wonderfully nasty monster that'll blow Earth out of the sky, and the Rangers won't be able to defeat this new monster not even the Gold Thunder Ranger will stand a chance against it." Rita stated "Since when has any of Finster's monsters been able to walk and chew gum at the same time?" Lord Zedd inquired "Zeddy baby trust me this time there's no way out for the Power Rangers." Rita stated "Deja vu." Lord Zedd muttered After we got to the Command Center we come to find out that Alpha's home planet is under attack. So Billy, Luke, and I are doing some scans on the distress signal. The results printed out of the Console and Billy took it and looked over it. "The signal definitely shows some interference in the planet's environment." Billy told us "Oh I knew something was terribly wrong." Alpha stated "How far is this planet Zordon?" Tommy asked "Edenoi is located in the northern most corner of the galaxy in the constellation Andromeda, it's too far beyond our reach." Zordon informed us "Who inhabits it?" TJ asked "They are known as Edenites." I told him "Edenites who are they?" Ashley wondered "They are a highly intelligent and gentle race of people as Alpha himself can tell you." Zordon told us "The planet's leader, King Lexian, assembled me and gave me life, he was like a father to me." Alpha mentioned Aisha and Trini put their arms on his shoulder "Alpha we are your family here." Aisha told him "Yeah we are always there for you is there anything we can do to help?" Trini asked "Yeah we go and check the situation out ourselves." I stated "Yeah I agree with Paul." Luke agreed standing right by me "Paul there is very little we can do to assist Edenoi because of the very great distance there is a good chance you will not have full use of your Morphin Powers. The risk is just far too great." Zordon told us "Zordon taken risks has never stop us before and I just can't stand here and do nothing." I told him "Yeah I agree with Paul." Luke agreed "Yeah I say we check it out." Rocky stated "Ayi, yi, yi, would you really do this for me?" Alpha asked "You know it Alpha." Preston told him "I have reservations about this venture, but it appears to be the only way to gain more information on the situation on Edenoi. Remember you are to only investigate." Zordon told us "Please try to find out what has happened to King Lexian." Alpha mentioned "Just remember the distance might affect your powers and do not become involved in their conflict." Zordon told us "Zordon well you be able to still contact us through our Communicators if an attack on Earth arises?" Billy asked "Yes Billy, that new chip you, Paul, and Luke installed will allow that to happen good work." Zordon told him "We could just teleport back if we are needed." Curtis said "Yeah let's do this for Alpha." Tommy stated "Friendship is a powerful gift Rangers, and I commend you for your courage." Zordon told us "Alpha can you contact Kimberly and Kira and let them know what's going on?" I asked "You can count on it Paul." Alpha told me "Master Paul all of you I wish you luck on your mission." 3PO told us "Beep, beep." R2 beeped "Yeah good luck guys." Stevie stated "Thanks guys." Luke thanked them "And please be careful I could never forgive myself if anything were to happen to you." Alpha told us "Do worry Alpha we'll be careful." Jason reassured him "Zordon if a problem does arise and you can't get a hold of us right away, then contact Ryan and the rest of the VR Troopers to assist, I'm sure Ryan and his friends will be more than willing to help out." I mentioned "An excellent suggestion Paul I shall get in touch with them as soon as possible and see if they can be on standby to come assist if Angle Grove is attack." Zordon stated "Good at least that way if Zedd and Rita do decide to attack while we are gone then Kimberly won't be alone." Jason mentioned "That's what I am hoping for anyway." I stated "Well let's get going then." Cassie stated "IT'S MORPHIN TIME!" I yelled out "SARCOSUCHUS!" Richie yelled out "ANKYLO!" Carlos yelled out "STEGOSAURUS!" Cassie yelled out "SPINOSAURUS!" Ashley yelled out "RAPTOR!" Tanya yelled out "BRACHIOSAURUS!" TJ yelled out "RHINOZORD!" Luke yelled out "LIONZORD!" Adam Yelled out "FIREBIRDZORD!" Aisha yelled out "UNICORNZORD!" Curtis yelled out "GRIFFINZORD!" Kat yelled out "RED DRAGONZORD!" Rocky yelled out "DRAGONZORD!" Preston yelled out "GORILLAZORD!" I yelled out "TIGERZORD!" Tommy yelled out "MASTODON!" Zack yelled out "TRICERATOPS!" Billy yelled out "SABER-TOOTH TIGER!" Trini yelled out "TYRANNOSAURUS!" Jason yelled out Once morphed we arrive at the outskirts of town. "Alright Alpha we're ready." I said into the Communicator "Thank you Rangers my memory banks will never fail to retrieve this day's events, it gives me a warm fuzzy feeling in all of my circuits." Alpha mentioned "Paul, you and Luke are the most experience but make sure all of you are prepared for anything upon arrival, the coordinates Alpha is entering will land you near the worst disturbances on Edenoi. Good luck Rangers and let the power protect you all." Zordon told them "Right Zordon." I said into the Communicator "Alright guys let's do it." Luke said "Right you guys ready?" I asked "Ready." The others confirmed "Alright then." I stated "Power Rangers power up." We all said together as we then teleported off Earth heading towards Edenoi "Oh thank you Zordon, thank you." Alpha mentioned "Hmm this is weird." Lord Zedd stated "What is it Zeddy?" Rita asked "As strange as it seems, I can no longer detect the Power Rangers, except for Kimberly who has some sort of human ailment." Lord Zedd stated "Poor baby." Rita stated "My lord this would be a perfect time to strike." Goldar stated "I agree she won't be much of a problem to us in her condition." Scorpina mentioned "Oh now that is a great idea why didn't I think of that." Rita said sarcastically to Goldar and Scorpina Goldar growls and Scorpina holds him back. "Are they for real?" Rita asked Lord Zedd "We have no choice we must conquer Earth before Dregon gets his eyes on it. Can Finster's new monster really deliver?" Lord Zedd asked "Zeddy poo no one can put one over on us as together we're unbeatable." Rita stated "Unbeatable." Goldar repeated Rita turned around to face you "I didn't mean you Goldieblocks." Rita stated. Rita goes to check on Finster, shoving Goldar aside. "Isn't she something Goldar?" Lord Zedd asked "Yes, she's something alright." Goldar muttered "Easy big guy." Scorpina stated Rita walks into Finster's lab "I don't smell monsters cooking, talk to me Finster what's the deal and where's my monster?" Rita asked "Just a little longer and you'll have it." Finster stated "Well get on with it, put that puppy in the oven and get to cooking. The Rangers are out of sight and no one can stop us now." Rita stated "Yes, your cruelty." Finster said "Earth will be ours." Rita mentioned Rita walks off. We then teleport down onto the planet's surface. We then take a look around. 'Whoa this place really has gone to hell since Luke and I were last here.' I thought to myself "Man look at this place." Luke mentioned "Yeah I know it sure wasn't like this the last time we were here." I stated "Wait you guys were here once before?" Aisha asked "Yeah, except for TJ, Cassie, Ashley, Carlos, Tanya, and Richie do the rest of you guys remember when Lord Zedd turned back time and turning you all you expect for Preston, Kira, and Stevie into kids?" I asked "Yeah what about it?" Zack asked "Luke and I were not affected by it was because we were off Earth on a mission with a few other Rangers from other worlds and even though one of them wasn't a Ranger he is still a warrior and he is from this planet." I told him "Really?" Trini asked "Yeah look let's split up and take a look around the planet." I mentioned "Yeah good idea." Jason agreed "Alright then, Tommy you, Curtis, Rocky, Adam, Kat, Tanya, Cassie, Richie, and Aisha go one way and Jason, you, Trini, Billy, Zack, Carlos. TJ, Ashley, Preston, and Luke come with me the other way." I instructed "Alright sounds good let's do this." Zack stated "Ok just be careful the Edenites will more than likely not be too friendly right now giving the circumstances." I mentioned "Got it bro." Rocky asked We then split up and go in two different directions. "Zordon I have manage to get a hold of the VR Troopers." C-3PO stated "Good, put them through the Viewing Globe now." Zordon told him "Yes Zordon right away." C-3PO stated pushing some buttons Just then an image of the VR Troopers, Ryan, JB, and Kaitlin appeared. "Zordon is that you?" Ryan asked through the Viewing Globe "Yes Ryan it is, I need to make a request of you and your team if I may." Zordon stated "Yes of course Zordon what is it?" JB asked through the Viewing Globe "All but one of our Power Rangers have left Earth to check on a disturbance we had detected and Kimberly has fell ill we were hoping if you three would be able to be on alert if our enemies Lord Zedd and Rita attack Angle Grove?" Zordon requested "We be more than happy to assist in anyway we can Zordon in fact if you want us there now we can be as Grimlord has been pretty quiet lately." Ryan said through the Viewing Globe "That may be the a good idea. Are you three ready for teleportation?" Zordon asked "Yeah we're ready." Kaitlin said through the Viewing Globe "Alpha teleport them here at once." Zordon told him "Right away Zordon." Alpha stated pushing a few buttons Just then three beams of white lights teleported into the Command Center revealing the VR Troopers, Ryan, Kaitlin, and JB. "Welcome again friends." C-3PO greeted them "Man that sure is a weird feeling." Kaitlin mentioned "Ryan I can't thank you and your team enough for coming to help." Zordon stated "Hey it's no problem Zordon." Ryan mentioned "Yeah we are always more than willing to help out in your time of need." JB mentioned Just then the Spider Base started blasting the planet in the distance. "Man someone is using some heavy duty fire power." Rocky mentioned "Yeah but where is it coming from?" Tanya asked "Look over there." Aisha stated They look up towards the sky to see the Spider Base blasting the planet. "That blast must be trying to disrupt the planet's surface." Adam mentioned "Yeah we better do something." Kat stated "And fast." Cassie added "Come on we better keep moving try to find some cover." Tommy told them "Yeah good idea." Curtis agreed They then started running for a place to cover. They then find shelter behind some large rocks just as the Spider Base stops blasting the planet's surface. "This spot should provide enough cover if the blasting starts up again but we need to find out who is doing this and why." Tommy stated "Yeah I agree Tommy." Richie agreed "We should be really close but without either Billy, Luke, or Paul I can't really be sure." Adam stated "Hey guys check this out." Aisha called over "Yeah I think we found some people." Kat added The others went over to them and saw the Edenites working in the distance. "Now where has Dex gone?" King Lexian wondered "I think they're Edenites but I can't really be sure." Aisha mentioned "You think we should contact Paul and the others?" Kat inquired "Yeah that be a really good idea." Tommy stated "Hey Paul the Edenite you were talking about earlier who is he?" Trini asked "His name is Dex he is the Prince of Edenoi, he is also known as the Masked Rider." I stated "The Masked Rider?" Carlos wondered "Yeah and he is a good fighter too." Luke stated "Yeah for sure." I agreed with my brother Just then my Communicator beeped "This is Paul go ahead." I said into the Communicator "Paul, it's Tommy I think we found some Edenites in our location they appear to be burying something into the ground." Tommy said through the Communicator "Well from what I reviewed back at the Command Center, that must be the area of the planet that is honeycombed with pockets of poisonous gas just below the surface." Billy said into his Communicator "That explains the gas masks, but why would anyone want to release the gases?" Tommy asked through the Communicator "They must be being force to do it as Luke and I know full well that they wouldn't do something like that especially to their own planet, look we are heading to your location now just stay out of site until we get there." I said into the Communicator "Right Paul see you guys soon Tommy out." Tommy said through the Communicator "Alright we better get going and meet up with the others." Jason stated "Right let's get going guys." I told them "I agree." TJ agreed "Same here." Zack stated The others nod their heads as we head off towards the others location. "I hope Paul and the others get here soon." Kat muttered Just then four brown robed Edenites leap down behind them, the Rangers turn around seeing Dex and his friends. "Intruders what are you doing here?" Dex asked "Wait we mean you no harm we come in peace." Tommy informed him "Likely story." One of the Edenites stated "Wait we received a report that your planet is in danger." Curtis mentioned "You lie we have sent no report to the likes of you." Another Edenite stated "You seem to pose as friends, but your garments betray you, they were sent by Count Dregon to further enslave our people." Dex stated "Wait just a minute we are from the Planet Earth." Rocky told them "Yeah we don't even know who this Dregon guy is." Richie added "Your lies will not help you." One of the Edenites stated "I call upon the Powers of Light and Truth to become Masked Rider. ECTO PHASE ACTIVATE!" Dex yelled out crossing his arms in the air then bringing them back down to his side Just then he became the Masked Rider. Dex then jumps on top of a rock "You all will pay." Dex stated "Whoa he must be Paul's and Luke's friend." Cassie mentioned "Looks like we will have to hold him off until Paul and the others get here." Tommy told him "Well let's hope they get here soon." Adam stated "Yeah same here." Aisha agreed "There's no room on our planet for Count Dregon and his evil Plague Patrol. Defenders of Edenoi to stand with me now." Dex called out "Listen can we talk about this?" Tanya asked "Silent, your words have no meaning on a planet under the cape of war." Dex stated Dex's friends begin fighting the Rangers. Dex manage to separate Rocky and Tommy from the others. Finster enters the Throne Room. "Lord Zedd Mistress Rita, the monster you have requested is completed and I think you well be pleased with this magnificent creature." Finster told them "Is it good enough to destroy Angel Grove?" Lord Zedd asked "Yes of course." Finster reassures "Well move it Finny I want to see some action now." Rita stated "Bring the creature to me at once Finster I want to rule the Earth by sundown." Lord Zedd told him "Right away." Finster stated walking away "What a team we make." Lord Zedd told his wife "You said it Zeddster now the Power Rangers are kaput." Rita stated They both laugh evilly. Adam blocks all the attacks thrown by one of the Edenites. "Look you have to believe me we are not the enemy." Adam stated "Lie, all intruders are enemies of our people." The Edenite stated Kat, Cassie, Tanya, and Aisha back away from the female Edenite. "Wait just let us explain why we are here." Kat pleaded "I'm not going to listen to any of your lies." The female Edenite stated Tanya and Cassie try to hold her back. "Look you need to listen to us we are here to help." Cassie mentioned "Yeah we are not your enemies." Tanya mentioned "All lies." The female Ednite stated shoving them off her Aisha quickly grabs her arms "Listen we only came because our friend Alpha asked us to come." Aisha stated pushing of her "Alpha? Did you say Alpha?" The female Edenite wondered Curtis and Richie has their hands full, but eventually they both get the upper hand by grabbing their robed attacker's hands "Listen we have to talk." Richie mentioned "Yeah, your planet's surface is being disrupted by poisoning gas." Curtis told him "But how do you know that?" The Edenite asked Tommy and Rocky corner Dex as they have a standoff match each other's steps. "You interlopers, prepare to be crushed like all those who dare to cross the Masked Rider." Dex told them "Look this is getting us nowhere you must listen to us." Tommy pleaded "Nothing you can say will save you. You have sealed your fate when you came here and now you'll pay the ultimate price for your actions." Dex told them "You got to believe us we are here to help." Rocky told him "I believe no one." Dex stated Dex then jumps into the air as then Rocky and Tommy and they get struck in the process they then land on the ground. "Listen we should be fighting together not against each other." Tommy stated "Yeah hold up well ya." Rocky pleaded "Never." Dex stated Dex then attacks them again. "You can go tell Count Dregon that you have failed." Dex informed them "Doubleface who are these multicolored creatures that are battle Masked Rider?" Count Dregon inquired "Unfortunately the ship's computers are unable to identify them my lord but clearly they seek to possess the Masked Rider's Powers for themselves. So they too should be destroyed." Doubleface informed him "My lord I say we let these Strangers defeat Masked Rider first before we wipe them out as well." Gork suggested "Silence, if these strangers defeat the Masked Rider first they'll get his Powers before we do." Doubleface stated "That can never happen, I want an aerial assault to commence at once and continue until they're all destroyed." Count Dregon stated Dex then jumps in the air about to kick Tommy when Paul came in and kick Dex to the ground. "That's enough Dex." I told him Dex then gets up and looks at me "Paul?" Dex asked "Yes Dex you need to cool off right now." I informed my old friend "My lord all is ready for the aerial assault at your command. Once we attack we'll blast Masked Rider and his colorful playmates to oblivion." Doubleface stated "Soon everything will fall into place." Count Dregon stated "Oh good, will the food get any better?" Gork asked "Be quiet you are a silly space mollusk." Doubleface stated "You will commence shooting now." Count Dregon told him "Paul what are you doing here?" Dex asked Before I could answer we were shot at by the weird looking ship. "Man their firing straight at us this time." Rocky stated "Yeah this is not good." Kat stated "I agree." Preston agreed "Dex we came here because our friend Alpha 5 sent us believing you guys were in danger." I told them "Thank you for coming old friend and welcome back to Edenoi." Dex said as we shook hands "My lord somehow they have all escaped destruction." Doubleface mentioned "How do you suppose we fix that? We fire again that's what. Do it." Count Dregon ordered We are blasted at again. "My friends we must find sanctuary." Dex stated "Lead the way Dex." I told my friend "Yeah and let's get their quickly." Luke added "This way quickly." Dex stated "You don't have to tell me twice." Ashley stated "Yeah that goes double for me too." Preston agreed We all then race towards the mountainside as quickly as we can. "Come on get in the cave hurry." Dex told us We all then run into the cave but Dex stays behind. "Once again we are safe and to live another day to fight you Count Dregon." Dex said as he then too ran into the cave to catch up with the others. "You incompetent fools you let them all escape. Send in the Plague Patrol immediately or heads will roll." Count Dregon ordered "We're on it my lord." Doubleface stated All but Count Dregon leaves the bridge. "They will all pay." Count Dregon stated
