Joe: I've learned never to try to be like the cool people, you always get hurt.

Tai leaves the room. Karen walks closer to Joe.

Karen: Joe, how about I take you to diner tonight.

Joe: Knock it off. It was just diner.

Victor: Joe and Karen sitting in a tree...

Tai: Cool! Let's go see them.

Billy: Follow me.

Billy walks out to the holding bay. The Rangers follow him.

Scece 4
Setting: Zord holding bay. Billy and the Rangers enter. The room is completly dark except for a small light by the door.

Billy points up and a light turns on. It reaveals a zord. It is a larger version of the Firebot.

Billy: Victor, the Firebot has proven itself so we designed your zord as a bigger and stronger version of it. It is the Elemental Firezord.

Victor: Wow, now that's cool.

Two lights shine on the left and right of the Firezord. Two more large robots become visible. The one on the left is blue. It has a shield in it's hand and a sword sheath straped to it's side. The one on the right is white. It has two blades that retract into the arms.

Billy: Tai, you will command the Lightning Nnja.

Tai: I can do some real damage to Gridster's army with that.

Billy: The Diamond Slasher is your zord Kara.

Kara: Nice.

The last zords are revealed. To the left of Lightning Ninja is a purple zord. It looks a bit smaller than the others. Beside Diamond Slasher the black zord. It has two blasters in holsters on it's sides.

Billy: Karen, your zord is the Amethyst Ninja.

Karen: It looks a bit small doesn't it.

Billy: That's part of the design. It is the most agile zord I've ever built.

Karen: Ahh, I see.

Billy: Your zord Joe is the Onyx Deputy. It's twin blasters are very powerful.

Joe: I like it.

Billy: The Megazord program isn't done yet, so I'd like to restrain from using them unless it's absolutly necessary.

Victor: Ok, The Mobile Arsenal should hold up a while.

Billy: You can use these zords, they just can't form a megazord yet.

Tai: Got it. Zords work, megazord doesn't.

Billy: Right.

The lights turn off and the Rangers leave the holding bay.

Skeletron: Come out, come out, wherever you are Rangers.

Scene 6
Setting: The Power Chamber. Billy and the Rangers re-enter. The alarms start going off. Alpah runs to the main console. He pushes a few buttons and an image of Skeletron attacking the city appears on the viewing globe.

Victor: We gotta stop him.

Zordon: Joe, your leg is in no shape to fight.

Joe: But...

Zordon: Victor, go without Joe. Alpha and I will think of a way to fix his leg so he can join you later.

Victor: Allright. See you later Joe.

Victor, Tai, Kara, Karen: IT'S MORPHING TIME!

Scene 7
Setting: Downtown Angel Grove. Skeletron is still atacking. The Rangers teleport in.

Skeletron: So you are the Power Rangers. I can take you.

Victor: You think so, just try it.

Skeletron: I will. But first I think you might enjoy meeting Gridster's new army.

Kara: Ooohh, we're shaking in our boots.

Skeletron: You should be. Destroyerbots!

Lightning bolts strike the ground around the Rangers. The bolts form into robots.

Tai: Great, there's a bunch of them.

Karen: I hope we can take them without Joe.

Victor: Stay focused and we'll be alright.

Tai, Kara, Karen: Right.

Tai: Here they come.

The Destroyerbots come at the Rangers. Tai runs right into the group and begins fighting. He kicks one in the chest. The Destroyer falls and so does Tai.

Tai: Man, those guys hurt.

Karen is trying to avoid the attacks of two Destroyers. One swings at her. She ducks to avoid the blow only to be hit in the middle of the back by the other one. She is knocked down.

Karen: Ahh. My back.

Victor has his laser pistol out and fires at a Destroyer. It shields itself then blasts Victor. He takes a few steps back.

Victor: Better not try that again.

Kara is being beaten down by another group of Destroyers. A blast can be seen coming from the bottom of the pile and she can be seen strugleing to escape the attackers. Victor stumbles over and helps her take out a few bots. They stagger to Tai and Karen.

Kara: Are you guys ok?

Tai: They are alot stronger than we thought.

Karen: I hate to say it but we need Joe.

Victor: I'll contact Zordon to see what he can do.

Scene 8
Setting: The Power Chamber. Joe is watching the battle on the viewing globe.

Joe: They're getting killed out there Zordon. I have to help them.

Zordon: I may be able to help your leg. It's risky and may cause more damage.

Joe: We have to try it. Gridster will show them no mercy.

Zordon: Alpah, help Joe onto the HealChamber.

Alpha: Right this way Joe.

Alpah leads him to a table in the far corner of the Power Chamber. He helps Joe lay down.

Zordon: I'm going to infuse you with energy from the Morphing Grid. It may aid your cells and accelerate the healing process. However your body may react negativly and the healing process could be greatly slowed down.

Joe: I'm ready.

Alpha: Initializing power infusion.

He presses a button on the main console. The table begins to glow. The glowing moves into Joe's body.

Joe: I can feel it. I think it's working.

Billy: We'll soon find out.

The glow stops. Alpha helps Joe to his feet.

Alpha: Take it easy until we know if it worked.

Joe: Ok.

He cautiously leans his weight onto the leg. He doesn't say a word.

Alpha: Does that hurt.

Joe: Not at all. It worked!

Victor's voice can be heard over the loudspeaker.

Victor's voice: Zordon, we really need some help here.

Zordon: We have found a way to heal Joe's leg. I am sending him to aid you as we speak.

Victor's voice: Thanks.

Joe: I'm outta here. IT'S MORPHIN TIME!

Scene 9
Setting: The battle. Joe teleports in.

Joe: Is everyone ok?

Karen: We are now.

Tai, Kara, Karen, Joe: Right.

All Rangers: Weapons online!

Victor: Fire Staff, power up!

Tai: Lightning Strikers, power up!

Kara: Diamond Cutter, power up!

Karen: Amethyst Blaster, power up!

Joe: Onyx Chargers, power up!

Victor runs into the group of Destroyers and hits 3 of them with his Fire Staff. They deactivate and explode.

Victor: Let's take them out.

Karen blasts into the group. More explode. Kara is being chased by two.

Kara: You boys want a surprise.

She throws her Cutter. It goes right through the Destroyer. They exolode.

Tai holds out his weapon and takes out 2 more. Joe jams his chargers onto the chest of the last one. It explodes.

Tai: We did it.

Karen: Never mess with the Power Rangers.

Skeletron: Forget about someone.

Victor: We didn't forget, we just saved the dumbest for last.

Skeletron: You'll pay for that Fire Ranger.

Victor: We'll see.

Victor launches towards Skeletron. He sticks his Fire Staff right in the monster's chest. At the same time the Skeletron releases a blast of his own. Sparks fly and they both get catapaulted into the air. The other Rangers help Victor up.

Tai: I bet that hurt.

Karen: Are you ok.

Victor: I'm fine. We'll have to work together to take him out.

All the Rangers go after Skeletron. Victor fires a beam from his staff. Tai shoots lightning at him. Kara gives her cutter a toss. Karen blasts him, and Joe sends out a shock wave. All the attacks hit him. He stumbles a little but is not destroyed.

Joe: Oh great, a super monster.

Kara: There's no way that didn't hurt him.

Tai: So what do we do now?

Victor: We have to keep it together. We can't let him win.

Act 4
Scene 1
Setting: The battle. The Rangers are trying to come up with a plan.

Karen: So what should we do?

Victor: Let's give the Eastern Blaster a try.

Joe: And then what?

Victor: Then we come up with another idea.

Tai: Works for me.

Kara: We gotta try something.

Victor: Then lets do it. Eastern Blaster power now!

Victor throws the Fire Staff into the air. It stays suspened horizontaly. Tai throws up the Lightning Strikers. They land sideways on top of the Fire Staff. Kara tosses the Diamond Cutter. It sets on top of the Strikers. Karen throws the Amethyst Blaster. It lands on top of the Cutter with it's handle forming the handle of the Eastern Blaster. Finaly Joe tosses the Onyx Chargers and they hook onto the bottom of the Strikers. The Eastern Blaster falls into Victors hands. The other Rangers stand to his sides.

Victor: Let's take out the trash.

All Rangers: FIRE!

The beam hits Skeletron. He falls to the ground.

Tai: I think that did it.

Karen: I hope so.

Victor: Good job everyone.

He stomps right where the Rangers are standing. They jump away just in time.

Victor: Mobile Arsenal, online.

The Mobile Arsenal vehicles come out of the holding bay. The Rangers teleport into the cockpits.

Victor: Firebot, power up.

Tai and Kara: Blue-diamond tank, power up.

Karen and Joe: Purple-onyx tank, power up.

Victor: Let's show him how this is done.

Firebot charges at Skeletron.

Victor: Arm blasters, fire.

He fires but the monster avoids the attack.

Skeletron: You'll have to do better than that.

Tai: Ok, we will.

Kara: Pattern shot.

The Blue-diamond tank spins in cicles and shoots at Skeletron. He again dogdes all the attacks.

Skeletron: Pathetic.

Joe: Megafire.

The Purple-onyx tank fires. It hits Skeletron and bounces back at the tank.

Karen: That hurt.

Victor: We can't touch him.

Skeletor reaches into the air. A sword appears in his hand. He runs up and nails Firebot. He then smashes the Purple-onyx tank and the Blue-diamond tank. The Mobile Arsenal vehicles shut down.

Scene 4
Setting: The Power Chamber. Billy is monitoring the fight.

Billy: The Mobile Arsenal has been defeated.

Billy: I'll contact them.

Scene 5
Setting: Firebot cockpit. Victor's communicator goes off.

Victor: Hey, we need some help out here.

Billy's voice: You'll have to call the Elemental Zords. The Megazord program isn't done yet. I'll have it finished soon.

A bright flash of light shines as the Diamond Slasher appears. Crystals grow from the ground and the Amethyst Ninja emerges from them. The black light touches down and the light forms the shape of the Onyx Deputy. The Rangers teleport to the cockpits.

The cockpits have the symbol for each Ranger in the back.

Victor: Now this is a zord.

Tai: I like it.

Kara: What, no leather seats.

Karen: Let's teach this guy a lesson.

Joe: Now how do I run this thing?

Firezord walks up to Skeletron.

Victor: Fire Blasters.

The zord shoots fire from the arm blasters. Skeletron knocks them away.

Tai: Looks like we all need to hit him at once.

Victor: Good idea. Now. Fire Blasters.

Tai: Lightning Sword.

Kara: Blade Cut.

Karen: Start Blade.

Joe: Twin Blasters.

Fire shoots from the Firezord's arm blasters. Lightning Ninja lifts it's sword into the air. A bolt of lightning leaves it's tip. Diamond Slasher deployes it's blades and swings at Skeletron. Amethyst Ninja tosses a throwing star at him. The Onyx Deputy pulls out it's guns and fires. All the blasts hit Skeletron at the same time. There is an explosion.

Victor: We did it guys.

Karen: Thats great.

Joe: I can't believe it worked.

Tai: What?!

Skeletron: You actually think you can stop me.

Victor: What do we do now.

All Rangers: Elemental Megazord, power up!

Victor: Let's finish this guy. Elemental Megazord Sabre.

A sabre drops from the sky into the Megazord's hand. At the base of the blade are the symbols of the Ranger's elements. The symbols light up as the blade strikes Skeletron. A white light begins to shine inside him and he desintagrates.
