CONTROL OF THE ELEMENT EARTH. YOU CAN CREATE EARTHQUAKES AS WELL AS FIRE SEISMIC WAVES, WHICH CREATE A SHAKING EFFECT. YOUR WEAPON IS THE EARTH SWORD, WHICH CAN FOCUS YOUR SEISMIC WAVES INTO A CONCUSSIVE BLAST. BE CAREFUL, JASON, THE POWER OF EARTH CAN DO AS MUCH HARM AS GOOD. YOU MUST USE THIS POWER RESPONSIBLY. ADAM PARK -- STEP FORWARD."



Adam stood next to Jason, and accepted the green Zeo Shard into his body. A green cyclone started at his feet, and in seconds the tornado spun around his body. When the wind died down, the mighty Green Ranger stood in his place. His uniform was a green version of Jason's, with the image of a tornado on the belt buckle.

"ADAM, YOU ARE THE MIGHTY GREEN RANGER, MASTER OVER THE ELEMENT OF WIND. YOU CAN INCREASE OR DECREASE THE FORCE OF WIND, AS WELL AS FLY. YOUR WEAPON IS THE WIND SHIELD, WHICH CAN CREATE TORNADOS WHEN SPUN, AND WILL OBEY YOUR COMMAND AND RETURN TO YOU, LIKE A BOOMERANG. KATHERINE HILLARD -- STEP FORWARD."



Katherine obeyed Zordon's request, and accepted the blue Zeo shard. Waves of aqua blue light bathed her from head to toe, and when the light vanished, she was the Blue Ranger, wearing an aqua-blue uniform much like Kimberly's, and with a symbol of waves on her belt.

"KATHERINE, YOU ARE THE BLUE RANGER, IN COMMAND OF WATER, THE ELEMENT MOST VITAL FOR LIFE. YOU CAN COMMAND RAIN AS WELL AS HAIL, AND CAN DIRECT THE FLOW OF ANY BODY OF WATER. YOU CAN ALSO BREATHE UNDER WATER IF NEED BE. YOUR WEAPONS ARE THE ICE DAGGERS, WHOSE BLADES CAN MORPH FROM A METAL ALLOY TO ICE. USE YOUR NEW POWERS WITH WISDOM AND RESTRAINT. AND FINALLY, ZACHARY TAYLOR -- STEP FORWARD."



Zack stood beside Kat and accepted the hovering white shard. Once he absorbed it, a light originating from his heart engulfed him. When the white light faded, he was dressed in the armor of the White Ranger, with a star symbol on his belt.

"ZACHARY, YOUR POWER ISN'T AN ELEMENT. RATHER, IT IS LIGHT, THE MIGHTIEST SOURCE OF NATURE IN THE UNIVERSE. YOUR POWERS INCLUDE MOTION AT THE SPEED OF LIGHT, CONVERTING YOUR BODY INTO A BEAM OF LIGHT, AND CREATING BEAMS OF WHITE HOT LIGHT. YOUR WEAPON IS THE LANCE OF LIGHT, A MIGHTY STAFF WITH PRISMS ON EITHER END, WHICH FOCUS, BEND AND REFRACT LIGHT. TERRAN RANGERS, YOU CAN COMBINE YOUR TERRA WEAPONS INTO THE TERRA TEMPEST, A MIGHTY STORM OF LIGHT AND POWER. I MUST LEAVE YOU NOW -- MAY THE POWER PROTECT YOU ALL."



With that, the image of Zordon, as well as the pillars, vanished, leaving the six Terran Rangers standing morphed amongst the ruins of the Command Center.

Part Eight



Chapter Nine


In the Central Access Complex, Billy tried desperately to restore the image onto the Viewing Globe.

"Fish!" he cursed in anger, "I can't get an image! I can't even contact or teleport them! The last thing I saw was the blast of wind, and then nothing!"

"Can you teleport me up there?" asked Tanya, who was monitoring Rocky's progress on the med-unit, "I can check on them..."

"No, that wouldn't help our situation," said Billy, calming down. "You would be trapped up there also, providing the teleportation signal would even get through."

Suddenly, the lights began blinking furiously.

"What's going on?!" cried Tanya. Then, Zordon appeared in the large Viewing Globe.

"Zordon!" cried Billy. "You're unharmed!!"

"I AM INDEED, BILLY, BUT I MUST BE BRIEF, FOR I CAN ONLY PROJECT AN IMAGE OF MYSELF FOR A SHORT TIME. ALPHA FIVE AND I ARE IN THE ALPHA CENTAURI SYSTEM. APPARENTLY, THE DREADED MACHINE EMPIRE HAS DECIDED TO LAUNCH AN ATTACK AGAINST THE INNOCENT PEOPLE HERE, AND I MUST FORM A TEAM OF POWER RANGERS HERE TO COMBAT IT."



"You mean there are other Power Rangers?" asked Tanya.

"INDEED. THE POWER EXISTS THROUGHOUT THE COSMOS, SO WHEREVER THERE IS EVIL, THERE IS ALSO GOOD TO BALANCE IT OUT. THE POWER NEEDS A FOCUS, AND THE ONE I HAD USED ON EARTH WAS THE ZEO CRYSTAL. EVEN THOUGH IT WAS ON THE MOON, I WAS ABLE TO USE ITS ENERGIES TO CREATE THE MORPHIN GRID. NOW, THE TERRAN POWER RANGERS HAVE INHERITED THE POWER OF THE ZEO CRYSTAL ITSELF. YOU HAVE ALL GROWN UP, AND ARE NO LONGER IN NEED OF MY CARE AND KEEPING."



"But Zordon, the rangers still need guidance!" said Billy.

"IT IS TRUE THAT AT TIMES THEY DO NEED A MENTOR, BUT THERE IS A GREATER NEED HERE. THEY NEED A MENTOR AND SCIENTIFIC ADVISOR, AND I ASK THAT YOU BE IT, BILLY."



"Me?" asked Billy in astonishment.

"YES. YOU HAVE PROVEN TO POSSESS WISDOM AND LOYALTY BEYOND YOUR YEARS. YOU ARE A VITAL PART OF THE POWER RANGERS BILLY, AND SO I ASK YOU TO TAKE MY PLACE. I HAVE DESIGNED THE CENTRAL ACCESS COMPLEX TO YOUR SPECIFIC NEEDS. I HAVE ALSO LEFT YOU THE BLUEPRINTS AND MATERIALS NECESSARY TO FINISH THE TERRA ZORDS. ALPHA FIVE AND I HAD STARTED THEM, BUT THEY ARE AS YET INCOMPLETE."



Suddenly, Zordon's image begins to break up.

"I MUST GO, BILLY. I ENTRUST THE TERRAN RANGERS TO YOU. MAY THE POWER GUIDE AND PROTECT YOU."



Once Zordon vanished, all the equipment was back to normal. The alarms went off immediately.

"It looks like Zedd and Rita have wasted no time in sending down a monster," muttered Billy, staring at his computer screen, "I hope the Terran Rangers are ready for their first fight!"

Chapter Ten


The newly formed Terran Rangers stood upon the ruins of the Command Center, still speechless about their recent transformation. Being given direct access to the unlimited power of the Zeo crystal without a medium is a great honor, and a great responsibility. Now, the teens can no longer so easily give up the Power to another. They couldn't -- only a select few can be Terran Rangers. Its no longer just about character -- it was about biology also.

"This is so unbelievable," said Katherine quietly, straightening her aqua blue skirt, "I feel so -- connected with nature. It's a strange feeling."

"Yeah," said Jason, "especially considering three of us have been away from the Power for a while. I feel so complete. Like a part of me has finally come back."

Both Kimberly and Zack silently nodded, thoroughly reveling in the rush of pure power through their systems. Although none of the former rangers ever admitted it, there was a severe withdrawl period after surrendering the Power. Having the Power back refreshed them, body as well as soul. Before anyone could say anything more, a flash of white lightning struck the dirt, forming an eight foot tall knight in shining black armor. He removed his helmet, revealing a face that looked most like a hyena. But this creature wasn't laughing.

"I am Sentry!" he declared, raising his sword into the air. "And I am here to regain the Zeo crystal, and return it to the Moon, where it belongs. You have one chance to surrender the gem, and no harm will come to you."

All six of the Terran Rangers stood in a line, their helmets hiding their amused expressions. All at once, they silently summon their Terran Weapons.

"We will never surrender the Zeo crystal to the likes of you, Dog-face!" yelled Jason, pointing his Earth Sword at the monster threateningly.

"Then have at thee, human!" yelled Sentry, running towards Jason with his sword at the ready. The two mighty warriors clashed swords for a while, before it became brutally obvious that Sentry was a superb swordsman. The sword cut at Jason's knee -- although it didn't penetrate the spandex armor, it did know Jason to the ground. Jason lay helpless as time slowed down, and the huge giant stood above him, bringing down his broadsword mightily for the kill. Right before the sword reached Jason's outstretched hands, a bolt of lightning struck the sword dead on, sending an electric current through the metal of the blade, and into Sentry's body. Sentry dropped the blade, and shook slightly from the voltage.

"Bullseye!" cried Kimberly, lowering her Thunder Bow.

"Are you okay, Jay?" asked Zack, helping his friend to his feet."

"Yeah, but this guy is tough! He's super strong, and really fast. We have to be careful."

Meanwhile, Sentry recovered from the initial bolt, and glared at Kimberly.

"Nice try, human," he taunted, "But not good enough. I grow weary of this game. I command you to STOP

!!"

At that instant, Kimberly dropped her bow and stood completely still. The other rangers stared at her in confusion and horror.

"Kim!" cried Tommy, running to her immediately, "Kim?"

But Kimberly didn't budge, or even twitch. Tommy gently touched her shoulder, but received a painful electrical shock.

"OW!" he moaned. "She put up some kind of electrical field around her body. But why?"

"I don't know," said Jason, picking up his sword, "but he didn't even touch her. He may have some kind of invisible shield around her. Maybe if we break his concentration, he'll lose his grip on her!"

Jason pointed the sword at the ground, and created a beam of concentrated seismic energy. That energy was absorbed into the ground, creating a canyon between Sentry and Kimberly and Tommy. Then, he turned his power directly on Sentry.

"Distance will not save you from the power of
