ROCKY

Page Ten

Rocky, Adam, Aisha, Billy, Kimberly, and the citizens are still running from the giant rats.  They all end up in front of a platform, while the rats stay in the woods.  Suddenly White Ranger appears on the platform.  Rocky, Aisha, Billy, and Kimberly are very happy to see him.  White Ranger is glad they are safe.  White Ranger tells them I've come to take you back, but we got to hurry.  Green Ranger has unleashed Dragonzord on Angel Grove.  Aisha is concern, we can't just leave these people with these giant rats running around.  Kimberly walks up to the platform and stands next to White Ranger.  White Ranger tells Aisha there is no time for that right now.  We'll come back and finish off those dirty rats.  Adam asks Marissa to come with them.  There is so much I want to show you.  Marissa declines.  This is my world, you must return to yours.  Marissa gives him a kiss on his check.  Rocky grabs his arm and leads him up to the platform.  Marissa is sad to see Adam leave.  White Ranger tells the crowd not to worry.  We will come back and take care of those rats.  Rocky, Adam, Aisha, and Billy scrambled up onto the platform.  Adam tells Marissa that he will never forget her.  Rocky, Adam, Aisha, Billy, Kimberly, and White Ranger cling to each other.  White Ranger uses the wand and they vanish.  Rocky, Adam, Aisha, Billy, Kimberly, and White Ranger arrived in the park where Green Ranger and the Wizard of Deception are waiting.  White Ranger tells his friends to morph and shut down Dragonzord.  White Ranger will take care of Green Ranger and the Wizard of Deception.  Rocky, Adam, Aisha, Billy, and Kimberly  morph.  They summon their Thunderzords and they soon arrive. Thunder Megazord is formed.  Thunder Megazord faces down Dragonzord.  Back at the park, White Ranger faces down the Wizard of Deception and Green Ranger. White Ranger uses the wand against the Wizard of Deception.  The Wizard of Deception is hit and destroyed.  White Ranger tells Green Ranger he is finally free from the wizard's evil spell.  Green Ranger feels like such a fool. White Ranger tells him you control the Dragonzord.  You can stop it.  Green Ranger tells him, he can't.  White Ranger tells him, he has to.  Meanwhile, Thunder Megazord and Dragonzord battle.  Thunder Megazord lands a punch on Dragonzord, knocking him to the ground.  The Rangers are excited.  Red Ranger thinks if they jolt him hard enough, they can break the spell.  Dragonzord gets back up.  Dragonzord uses it's tail against Thunder Megazord.  Dragonzord fires several missiles at Thunder Megazord.  Thunder Megazord is not hit and starts walking towards Dragonzord.  Red Ranger tells the rest of the Rangers, let's finish the job.  The Rangers call on the thunder saber.  Thunder Megazord is about to strike, when White Ranger comes running up, yelling at them to wait.  Guys, you don't need to do that now!  Wait!  Stop!  Inside the Thunder Megazord, the rest of the Rangers do not hear White Ranger and call for the thunder saber, battle action!  Green Ranger realizes White Ranger is right and he must stop Dragonzord.  Green Ranger starts playing the Dragon Dagger.  The evil spell is broken and Dragonzord falls to the ground.  Green Ranger exclaims, the wizard's spell is broken!  Inside the Thunder Megazord, the rest of the Rangers are jubilant.  Green Ranger knows it's time to return the Dragonzord to the sea.  He plays the Dragon Dagger once more. Dragonzord gets back up and heads back into the sea.  Saba wants to know what to do with two Tommys.  White Ranger replies, we will figure something out.   Dragonzord sinks beneath the water. White Ranger and Green Ranger go to the past and fight the giant rats.  Once they are defeated, White Ranger uses the wizard's wand to revert the rats back to normal size.  Green Ranger makes the decision to stay in the past, while White Ranger returns to present time.  Rocky and Tommy are sparring.  Adam, Aisha, Billy, and Kimberly are sitting at a table with their homework.  Adam is lost in thought.  Aisha tells her friends, she is so glad Zordon destroyed that magic wand.  Kimberly agrees, that thing was bad news.  Tommy has overheard their conversation and adds there was some good that came out of it.  Rocky notices that Adam is lost in thought and asks him what's up?  Adam replies he's just thinking.  Rocky, Billy, Kimberly, Tommy, and Aisha all know who Adam is thinking about.  Billy tries to comfort Adam by telling him at least we know they are all okay now.  This really doesn't make Adam feel any better.  A couple of students walk pass.  One accidentally knocks the books out of the other.  The girl kneels down to pick up her stuff.  Adam offers to help and starts to gather some of her things.  Kimberly and Aisha look at each other as they realize the girl looks like Marissa.  The girl looks up at Adam.  Adam is taken aback at who the girl looks like.  Rocky, Kimberly, and Aisha all smile, happy for their friend.  The girl smiles and Adam smiles back at her. 

Angel Grove High School is holding elections.  At the top of the stairs, Skull makes an announcement.  Ladies and Gentlemen, here is the next president of Angel Grove High, Bulk.  Bulk slides down the banister.  Bulk promises that if he is elected, he will reveal to them, the true identities of the Power Rangers.  Rocky and Adam are in the crowds, and they become a little concern with this announcement.  Later, in the day, Kimberly is at her locker, looking over some papers when Rocky, Aisha, Billy, and Adam walk up.  Aisha tells Kimberly that they need to talk.  She tells her that her campaign has gotten completely out of control.  Kimberly doesn't think there is anything wrong with wanting to win at all costs.  Rocky's communicator goes off.  Aisha, Billy, Adam, and Kimberly gather close to Rocky.  Rocky tells Zordon, we read you Zordon.  What's going on? Zordon tells them that Tommy needs their help in the park. Zordon continues, you must go immediately.  Kimberly mutters figures as she slams her locker door shut.  Rocky, Aisha, Billy, Kimberly, and Adam morph.  Red Ranger, Pink Ranger, Black Ranger, Yellow Ranger, and Blue Ranger arrive in the park.  They quickly spot White Ranger battling the Putties and Goldar.  Red Ranger tells the rest of the Rangers, our friend is in trouble guys, you know what to do.  Black Ranger, Red Ranger, Yellow Ranger, and Pink Ranger race over to the fight.  Red Ranger leaps in and kicks a Putty away.  Red Ranger battles and defeats another Putty.  Red Ranger tells White Ranger that they are here and ask if he is okay.  White Ranger replies he is.  Red Ranger tells him they will take on these goons.  Soon Red Ranger is knocked to the ground.  Pink Ranger hurries over and asks if he is okay?  Red Ranger tells her they want Tommy.  We got to help him.  Pink Ranger groans and mutters he can't do anything right.  I'll help him.  Pink Ranger leaps into the fight.  Pink Ranger is battling a couple of Putties when White Ranger walks up and asks what is she doing?  Pink Ranger tells him, that he is useless.  Why don't you let me handle this before you get hurt.  Pink Ranger and White Ranger face each other.  Pink Ranger knocks down another Putty with her hand gestures, but she is unaware of it as she is too angry with White Ranger to pay attention to anything else.  Pink Ranger calls White Ranger an arrogant airhead.  White Ranger walks away.  Pink Ranger follows, stepping on the back of a Putty as she makes her way towards White Ranger.  Goldar stares in confusion as Pink Ranger yells at White Ranger, just inches away from Goldar.  Pink Ranger taunts White Ranger that he can't take the competition.  White Ranger and Pink Ranger yell at each other, paying no attention to Goldar.  Goldar places his hand on Pink Ranger's shoulder and she pushes it away, telling him to buzz off.  Pink Ranger and White Ranger's argument continues until Goldar gets fed up.  He grabs Pink Ranger and knocks her to the ground.  A couple of Putties grab White Ranger.  Goldar laughs and takes Saba.  Goldar tells White Ranger your bad day just got worse!  Goldar laughs.  White Ranger tells Goldar to give back Saba.  You don't know what you are doing.  Saba demands that Goldar put him down. White Ranger breaks free from the Putties holding him.  He battles and defeats them.  Blue Ranger, Yellow Ranger, and Black Ranger are fighting another group of Putties.  During the battle, Blue Ranger notices that Goldar has Saba.  Pink Ranger is battling another set of Putties.  White Ranger vows he will get Saba back.  Goldar starts to walk away.  White Ranger yells at Goldar to hold it right there!  During her battle with the Putties, Pink Ranger notices White Ranger running towards Goldar.  Pink Ranger leaves the battle to run after Goldar too.  White Ranger tells her to leave it to a professional.  Pink Ranger and White Ranger end up bumping into each other and they fall to the ground.  White Ranger immediately blames Pink Ranger.  Pink Ranger blames White Ranger.  They both get up and get into each other's face as they yell at each other.  The rest of the Rangers run up to break them up.  Goldar turns around and laughs at the Power Rangers.  Goldar thinks it's time to see what Saba can do.  Saba fires at the Rangers and they are hit.  The Rangers fall to the ground.  Goldar declares, now that is what I call fun!  Red Ranger notes Goldar has figured out how to use Saba.  They have to pull back. The teens arrive in the Command Center.  Billy tells Zordon that Goldar has captured Saba.  Tommy immediately blames Kimberly.  I could have taken him back if she hadn't gotten in the way.  Kimberly replies that his ponytail is too tight.  Kimberly and Tommy start to argue until Billy stops them.  Billy asks Zordon if it is possible that Kimberly and Tommy are under a spell?  That might explain why they are acting so irrationally.  Zordon asks Alpha 5 to run a diagnostic scan on them.  Alpha 5 does so.  Zordon tells Billy his suspicions were correct.  Rita has placed them under a powerful spell.  Aisha asks what can we do about it?  Zordon replies, there is only one solution to this problem.  Two bouquet of roses appear on the control panel. Aisha and Billy walk over and pick up the roses.  Zordon instructs Kimberly and Tommy to smell the roses.  Symbols of  love and friendship and they will counteract Rita's spell.  Tommy tells Zordon he doesn't mean to be a jerk, but what....Kimberly makes a snide remark, having a hard time not doing that.  This leads into another argument between Kimberly and Tommy.  Aisha tells them to just do it for the team and passes her bouquet to Tommy.  Billy gives his to Kimberly.  Tommy tells Kimberly he is only doing this for the Rangers.  Kimberly replies, me too.  Kimberly and Tommy smell the roses and the spell is broken.  Kimberly and Tommy feel instant remorse for the words they have said.  Tommy apologizes to Kimberly.  Kimberly apologizes as well.  Kimberly confesses she said some pretty terrible things.  Tommy tells Kimberly, I would never do anything to hurt you.  You know that right?  Kimberly does.  The alarm goes off.  The teens gather in front of the viewing globe.  Zordon tells them that Rita has appeared in the park with Saba.  The viewing globe shows Rita Repulsa dancing, along with Goldar, Squatt, and Baboo.  Zordon warns the teens that Rita can now control the Tiger Zord.  Tommy remarks they have to try and get Saba back.  Billy tells his friends that Saba is made of metal.  Maybe Alpha 5 can build a hand held electric magnet that is powerful enough to pull him out of Rita's hands.  Alpha 5 is willing to try.  Tommy tells his friends to go back in action.  He will stay with Alpha 5. Red Ranger, Pink Ranger, Black Ranger, Yellow Ranger, and Blue Ranger arrive.  Rita is excited to see the Power Rangers arrive.  Pink Ranger demands that Rita give Saba back.  Rita gloats, finders keepers!  She then sticks out her tongue at them.  Red Ranger wonders what she's up to?  Rita has waited a long time to say this, Tiger Zord Power!  Tiger Zord arrives.  Red Ranger summons Red Dragon Thunderzord.  The rest of the Rangers summon their Thunderzords and form Thunder Megazord. Soon, White Ranger arrives in the park unseen.  He sees Tiger Zord and Thunder Megazord battling in the city.  Tiger Zord lands a hard punch on Thunder Megazord.  Thunder Megazord lands on the ground.  Baboo, Squatt, Rita Repulsa, and Goldar cheer as they watch the battle.  White Ranger spots them and walks up from behind them.  He hides by a bush and tree.  Baboo and Squatt are right in front of him.  White Ranger hopes the electric magnet works.  Rita is confident that she will soon destroy the Power Rangers.  Rita tells Tiger Zord to finish them off.  Thunder Megazord has gotten back up.  Tiger Zord and Thunder Megazord continue to battle. It's a difficult battle.  Red Ranger suggests they switch to auxiliary power.  Tiger Zord lands several more punches on Thunder Megazord.  The Rangers summon the power sword.  Thunder Megazord and Tiger Zord battle each other with their swords.  White Ranger leaps away from the tree and holds out the electric magnet.  It works and pulls Saba out of Rita's hands and back to White Ranger.  Rita Repulsa is not happy.  White Ranger tells Rita that playtime is over.  Tiger Zord steps so close to Squatt, Rita, Goldar, and Baboo that it almost steps on them.  Rita vows you have not seen the last of me and then vanishes, along with Goldar, Baboo, and Squatt.  White Ranger tells Saba, we did it! The next day, the student elections are being held at the Youth Center.  A large crowd of students are there, including Rocky, Billy, Adam, and Aisha,  to listen to the speeches.  Mr. Caplan is there as well.  Kimberly finishes her speech and Tommy is next.  Instead of giving a speech on why he should be elected, he gives a speech on why the students should vote for Kimberly.  She has really done her homework for this campaign.  She has addressed all the tough issues and has some great ideas on how to solve problems at the school.  She would make an incredible president.  One that I will be proud to vote for.  Kimberly is touch and flattered by Tommy's vote of confidence for her.  Tommy leads the crowd into applauding for Kimberly.  Skull enters with several instruments strapped on him.  Skull announces the next president of Angel Grove High - Bulk.  Bulk walks in.  Skull is unaware of this as he turns to face the doorway and accidentally knocks Bulk aside with the drum strapped on his back.  Skull screams for Bulk as the crowd chuckles.  Bulk walks up to the podium for his speech.  Bulk tells the crowd, once again, let me make my campaign platform perfectly clear.  Everyone is a little distracted by Skull in the background, bumping into items and trying to make his way to the podium.  Bulk continues, I will reveal the true identities of the Power Rangers.  Skull finally reaches the podium as the crowd applauds for Bulk.  Skull manages to knock Mr. Caplan and Bulk off the platform.  Everyone laughs.  After awhile, the election results are in.  They are passed on to Mr. Caplan.  Mr. Caplan calls for everyone's attention.  I have here the election results.  And the new president of Angel Grove High School is......Kimberly Hart!  Rocky, Adam, Aisha, Billy, and the rest of the crowd cheer, except for Bulk and Skull.  Rocky, Billy, Aisha, and Adam walk up to Kimberly.  Aisha tells Kimberly congratulations.  Tommy gives Kimberly a flower and tells her, for Kimberly, the best person for the job.  Kimberly is very flattered.

Angel Grove High School is having a book fair.  Billy and Adam walk down the hall, soon joined by Rocky and Aisha.  Aisha can't believe they didn't have a book fair at their old school.  Rocky thinks it's a really good idea.  Billy tells them the proceeds benefit the school library.  A female student walks up and tells Aisha she has to check out the career table.  They actually have a book on how to break into the fashion business.  Aisha leaves with her.  Rocky parts ways as well.  Rocky spots Kimberly and Tommy and shows them a book on mediation that will be good for the martial arts.  Tommy asks if he can borrow it when Rocky is done with it.  Miss Appleby walks up to them and asks if they are enjoying the book fair?  Kimberly tells her they are.  Miss Appleby is glad to hear it.  Remember the more books we sell, the more the library benefits.  Miss Appleby walks away.  Rocky asks Kimberly and Tommy if they want to go to the Youth Center.  Aisha and the guys are going to meet him there.  Kimberly and Tommy agree and they all leave together.  Rocky, Tommy, and Kimberly are walking through the park.  Kimberly has the storybook and tells Tommy how happy she is that she found it.   (Rita Repulsa had been watching them and came up with a diabolical plan.) Rita's spell hits the book and it goes flying, landing in a trash can.  Tommy asks Kimberly why she threw it away?  Kimberly tells him, she didn't.  It just flew out of my hands.  Rocky, Kimberly, and Tommy run over to the trash can.  The book has a strange glow around it and Kimberly comments that it wasn't doing that this morning.  Kimberly is the first to notice something strange is happening.  Suddenly Rocky, Kimberly, and Tommy are pulled into the book.  The book slams shut. Rocky, Kimberly, and Tommy land hard on the ground.  They slowly get up and take a look around.  They have no idea where they are.  Kimberly notes that this place looks really familiar.  Rocky is surprised, it does?  Some birds fly by and Kimberly realizes they are inside her book.  Tommy suggests they call for help. Tommy tries to contact Zordon, but gets no response.  Kimberly comments, we are totally cut off. Rocky suggests they morph.  Tommy doesn't think it will do any good.  They are still stuck here.  Rocky, Tommy, and Kimberly hear a strange voice.  Suddenly a strange creature appears, dressed in a Santa suit and with a wagon full of toys.  Kimberly recognizes Grumble the Magic Elf right away.  She introduces herself, Rocky, and Tommy.  Grumble is very grouchy.  Kimberly tells her friends that an evil magician put a spell on Grumble and turned him into a grouch.  Grumble has to deliver all the toys to the orphanage if he ever wants to be nice again.  Grumble asks if she's a gossip or something?  Kimberly replies, I've read this story a hundred times.  Grumble asks her if she wants a medal?  Grumble tells Kimberly to get out of his way.  He leaves with the wagon of toys.  Tommy thinks if they follow him, maybe they can find their way out of here.  Rocky thinks it's worth a try.  Rocky, Tommy, and Kimberly follow Grumble. Grumble complains as he walks with his wagon of toys.  Rocky, Kimberly, and Tommy race to catch up with Grumble.  Tommy tells him they need his help to get to the end of the book.  Grumble asks them if he looks like a tour guide?  He also tells them to find the end of the book themselves.  Grumble starts to walk away again, but Rocky, Kimberly, and Tommy stop him.  Zedd's  Putties arrive at the same point of  the book the teens are at.  They are unseen by Rocky, Grumble, Tommy, and Kimberly.  One of Zedd's  Putties goes up to the wagon as Grumble refuses to help the teens.  Tommy continues to try, telling Grumble, please we need your help.  Unseen  Zedd's Putty works on the wagon and then goes into his hiding place. Tommy offers to help Grumble.  Grumble scoffs at this remark.  Lord Zedd's jolt makes the Putties appear in front of the wagon.  Rocky, Tommy, and Kimberly immediately get into a fight stance when they see them.  Kimberly suggests they help themselves first. But the Putties do not go after the teens.  Instead they stay around the wagon of toys.  Rocky wonders why they are not attacking.  Grumble gets upset with Zedd's  Putties and holds onto the wagon.  Tommy realizes Zedd's Putties are interested in the toys.  Kimberly concludes that if they take them, the story will never end, and we will never get out of here.  Rocky declares we got to get them back.  But it's too late as the wagon of toys and Zedd's Putties vanish.  Grumble is very upset and blames Rocky, Tommy, and Kimberly for what happen.  Grumble brushes past them as he storms off.  Rocky, Kimberly, and Tommy feel bad. Kimberly blames herself for what has happened to them.  Tommy tells Kimberly it's not her fault.  There is only two people to blame for this.  Rocky adds Rita and Zedd.  Kimberly asks how are they going to get out of here?  Tommy concludes the only one that can help us is that elf.  We have to find him.  Rocky and Kimberly agree.  Rocky, Kimberly, and Tommy start searching for Grumble.  Moments later, Rocky, Kimberly, and Tommy are freezing as snow falls on them.  Tommy thinks they are lost.  Rocky points out they are not actually dressed for this season.  Kimberly tells them they are not lost.  She knows where they are.  Suddenly the ground shakes and they fall to the ground.  Kimberly tells Rocky and Tommy, there is a snow monster in this part of the book.  He's very ugly and doesn't like uninvited guests.  Sure enough the Snow Monster arrives and he is very angry.  Snow Monster yells at them for not asking permission to make snow angels in his valley.  Now I'm going to have to keep you on ice.  Snow Monster asks the teens what flavor popsicle do they want to be?  Rocky, Tommy, and Kimberly get up.  Kimberly tells the guys, we need to do something.  Tommy agrees.  Rocky, Tommy, and Kimberly pull out their morphers and try to activate them, but nothing happens.  Kimberly asks, what's going on?  Rocky concludes that it must be the cold.  Our morphers are frozen.  Kimberly asks, what are we going to do?  Snow Monster gloats, yes, what are you going to do?  Rocky, Tommy, and Kimberly take cover from the Snow Monster. Tommy tells Rocky and Kimberly, there's got to be a way to get our morphers to work.  Rocky agrees, but how?  Tommy doesn't know.  But if we don't figure out something soon, this story is going to have a real unhappy ending.  The Snow Monster holds a boulder.  He asks them, what's the matter?  Got cold feet?  Rocky tells Tommy and Kimberly, we got to get out of this.  Rocky, Kimberly, and Tommy face down the Snow Monster.  Snow Monster charges towards them.  The teens jump out of the way and Snow Monster lands in the snow, but he gets back up.  The snow gets worse and the teens can't see anything.  Rocky, Tommy, and Kimberly soon realize they are in the midst of an avalanche.

The Snow Monster warns Rocky, Kimberly, and Tommy  that this will teach you to trespass in my valley. Rocky, Kimberly, and Tommy have found a small cave to hide in.  They are okay, but wondering how they are going to get out of here.  Tommy tells his friends, they have to think of something.  But no ideas come to them. After awhile, Kimberly asks Tommy if they are going to run out of air in here?  Tommy hopes not.  Tommy suggests they check their morphers.  Rocky notes they are still frozen.  The cave begins to shake and suddenly Grumble's face appears upside down.  He asks them if they are having fun?  Rocky, Kimberly, and Tommy are very happy to see Grumble.  Kimberly asks him how he got past the Snow Monster?  Grumble tells them he got caught in his own avalanche.  Are you coming or what?  Rocky, Kimberly, and Tommy quickly scramble out of the cave.  Tommy thanks Grumble once they are outside the cave.  Grumble replies if he could have figure out how to get those toys, they would still be in the cave.  Tommy thinks they are going about this all wrong.  Kimberly asks, what do you mean?  Tommy replies, we're going forward in the story.  Maybe we should go back instead.  Grumble mocks the suggestion but Kimberly understands.  Kimberly explains, we should go back and find the magician that put the spell on you.  Because maybe he can lift the spell and if he can lift the spell, then that's the end of the story.  Rocky adds, it may not be the ending that was written...Grumble continues, but at least it's an ending.  Kimberly is concern about the orphans.  Tommy tells Grumble, if we can get out of here, we'll send the toys for the orphans back.  Grumble agrees, anything to get you guys out of my story.  Rocky, Kimberly, Tommy, and Grumble start heading towards the beginning of the book. Soon, Rocky, Kimberly, Tommy, and Grumble reached the crossroads in the storybook, but the sign is knocked down. Kimberly urges Grumble to remember which way to Mondo the Magnificent Magician.  Grumble uses the excuse of never having gone backwards to defend that he is unsure of which way to go.  Tommy encourages Grumble to try.  Grumble stares at the two paths and debates which one to take.  Grumble finally decides on a path and the teens follow him. Rocky, Kimberly, and Tommy arrive at Mondo's place.  Grumble gets nervous and wants to leave.  Kimberly runs over to Grumble and tries to pull him over to the door.  Kimberly reminds him, he can't leave.  How else will we get your spell broken.  But Grumble decides he doesn't mind being under a spell. Rocky pulls and Kimberly pushes Grumble over to the door.  Grumble protests the entire time.  Tommy can't wait for the spell to be broken.  He has had enough of Grumble's attitude.  Tommy knocks on the door. Despite Tommy's knocking, there is no answer from Mondo.  Tommy thinks it's weird that no one is answering.  Grumble is actually relieved that no one is answering.  Suddenly there is lightening and the ground starts to shake.  Kimberly states, I really liked this story better when I wasn't in it.  Eventually, the shaking stops. They all hear Mondo's voice, which asks who dares knock on my door and disturb my beauty sleep?  Rocky, Kimberly, Tommy, and Grumble gather around the door.  Mondo asks what they wanted?  Tommy tells him, we came to ask you to reverse the spell on Grumble the Elf.  Mondo replies, never!  Kimberly can't believe it, why not?  Mondo replies, because it's not in the story, that's why.  Tommy tries to persuade Mondo to let them come in and talk to him.  Mondo refuses and all goes silent.  Tommy apologizes to Grumble and Kimberly gives Grumble a sympathetic pat on the shoulder.  After awhile, Tommy spots the wagon full of toys and points it out to his friends.  (From the Command Center, Aisha had drawn into the book the toys.) Rocky, Kimberly, and Grumble are surprised but happy.  Tommy is eager to get the toys to the kids and pulls the wagon. Soon Grumble is pulling the wagon and complaining the entire time. Grumble suddenly pauses.  Rocky asks him why he is stopping?  Grumble warns them that Mondo the Magician is on this page too.  Quietly Rocky, Kimberly, Tommy, and Grumble continue on their way.  They are unaware that Mondo the Magician is hiding behind a tree. Eventually they reach the orphanage.  Grumble is delivering the presents to the orphans.  Grumble gives the last toy to a young girl.  The little girl thanks Grumble, which gives Grumble a warm feeling.  Grumble decides he likes the feeling.  Rocky, Kimberly, and Tommy are happy for Grumble.  Grumble walks over to them and tells them to get out of his book. Rocky, Kimberly,  and Tommy are more than happy to leave and they are soon teleported out of the story.  Suddenly they are at the Command Center.  Aisha, Billy, and Adam are there as well.  Tommy asks, did you miss us?  Aisha confirms that they did.  Aisha also tells them that Rita and Zedd have taken Mondo out of the story book.  Rocky replies, we better get busy then.  The six teens morph and teleport out.  The Rangers arrive.  Red Ranger summons Red Dragon Thunderzord.  The rest of the Rangers summon their Thunderzords.  The Rangers enter their Thunderzords.  Thunder Megazord is formed.  White Ranger has White Tiger Zord go into warrior mode. Mondo the Magician twirls his sword as he runs towards the Megazords.  Thunder Megazord and Mondo the Magician battled.  Mondo the Magician formed a weird electric current in front of him.  It then struck the Thunder Megazord several times.  The Rangers lost control and Thunder Megazord fell to the ground.  Mondo the Magician demanded that Thunder Megazord get back up, so he could finish them off.  Tiger Zord Warrior Mode arrived.  Mondo the Magician prepared to battle Tiger Zord Warrior Mode.  Tiger Zord Warrior Mode knocked Mondo the Magician to the ground.  Thunder Megazord got back up and summoned it's sword.  Mondo the Magician also got back up.  Thunder Megazord destroyed Mondo the Magician with it's sword. After the battle, the teens returned to Angel Grove High School and are helping with cleaning up the book fair.  Adam asks Tommy, what was it like being in that book?  Tommy replies, I never really liked fairy tales, but hey, this one was pretty exciting.  Rocky adds, that's putting it mildly.  Kimberly hopes Rita and Zedd are out of the story telling business for good.  Tommy adds, their plot twist was a little too intense.  Everyone chuckles.  Miss Appleby walks up with great news.  The book fair was a big hit.  The teens are very happy, that should help the library. Bulk and Skull come walking down the hall.  Miss Appleby thinks they have come back for more books.  Instead Bulk and Skull would like to donate "Monster Making Made Easy" and "How To Make A Thanksgiving Feast" back to the book fair.  Miss Appleby takes the books.  Bulk and Skull add that their monster making days are done.  With a sly grin on her face, Kimberly takes the Grumble the Magic Elf book and gives it to Skull.  Skull mocks the title and then opens the book.  Grumble tells them hello and Bulk and Skull freak out.  Skull tosses the book, which lands neatly into Billy's hands.  Bulk tells them they will pass and Skull adds, thanks anyways.  Bulk and Skull run down the hall.  Kimberly comments, I guess they weren't into reading.  Rocky, Kimberly, Tommy, Billy, Adam, and Aisha laugh.

Rocky, Billy, and Adam were sitting at the counter at the Youth Center.  Soon Tommy joins them, and he is holding a cactus.  Adam asks Tommy, what's that?  Tommy explains that it's a cactus his dad brought back from Arizona.  Billy recognizes it as a cactal vocifera spinoctera, a very rare type of cactus.  Adam is surprised that Tommy is into plants.  Tommy chuckles and replies, actually it's for Kimberly.  She's been looking for something really special to finish her garden.  Tommy walks over to the table and the guys follow him over.  Tommy tells Kimberly to close her eyes, he's got a surprise.  Kimberly loves surprises and covers her eyes.  Tommy instructs her to open them, but there is nothing.  Tommy laughs and tells Kimberly he was just kidding and gives her the cactus.  Kimberly is impressed and asks Tommy where he got it?  Tommy replies, Arizona and asks if she likes it?  Kimberly thinks it's incredible and knows exactly where she is going to put it.  She gives Tommy a kiss on the cheek and thanks him.  No one notices the strange lightening that takes the cactus.  A few moments later, Kimberly notices that the cactus is missing.  She thinks her friends are playing another joke on her.  But none of her friends know what happened to the cactus.  Rocky notices the strange green goo on the table and points it out to his friends.  Billy picks up some of the goo.  He has no idea what it is.  Billy thinks they should take it back to the Command Center and analyze it.  Tommy suggests they get going.  Billy uses a napkin to take the rest of the goo off the table.  Rocky, Billy, Adam, Tommy, Kimberly, and Aisha walk over to the locker area of the Youth Center.  Rocky, Billy, Adam, Tommy, and Aisha teleport out.  Kimberly is left behind.  Soon, Rocky, Billy, Adam, Tommy, and Aisha arrive in the Command Center.  They immediately notice that Kimberly is missing.  Tommy asks Alpha 5, what happened to Kimberly?  Alpha 5 is worried and replies, her teleport signal accidentally got sweep into a time hole.  Rocky is puzzled, a time hole?  Billy explains, a tear in the fabric of time.  If someone falls through it, they could end up in the past or the future.  Rocky, Billy, Adam, Tommy, and Aisha walk over to the viewing globe.  The viewing globe shows the time hole.  Billy comments that for some reason, this time hole is located near the lockers at the Youth Center. Rocky, Billy, Adam, Tommy, and Aisha continue watching the viewing globe.  Tommy asks, what's happening to the time hole?  Adam thinks it's disappearing.  Alpha 5 informs them that it is not disappearing.  The time hole turns invisible when not in use.  Tommy is really worried.  Kimberly is lost somewhere in time.  We don't even know where.  Alpha 5 tells them, he is trying to locate her, but time holes form randomly in the universe.  Time streams are unpredictable. Soon, Billy is working at the controls.  Tommy asks if he has had any luck locating Kimberly?  Billy is having trouble moving his signal through the time barrier.  Billy decides to try something else and after working a few moments, is confident something will turn up on the viewing globe.  Rocky, Billy, Adam, Tommy, Aisha, and Alpha 5 walk over to the viewing globe.  An image of Kimberly's face appears on the viewing globe.  Tommy is very happy to see her, but then the viewing globe goes blank.  Adam asks, what happened?  Billy is not sure.  He thinks he might need to check the power transformer.  We may need to increase the voltage surge to carry an ongoing signal. Soon, Billy locates Kimberly.  He tells his friends that Kimberly is in Angel Grove, just in 1880.  Tommy is eager to go rescue Kimberly.  The alarms go off.  Alpha 5 tells them that Goldar and his goons are headed straight for the time hole.  Rocky, Billy, Adam, Tommy, and Aisha walk over to the viewing globe.  It shows Goldar, Needlenose, and several of Zedd's Putties walking towards the time hole.  Billy concludes the monster was created by Lord Zedd from Kimberly's cactus.  Zordon warns the teens if Zedd's monster destroys Angel Grove in 1880, it will alter Angel Grove's future and all of you will disappear because you have never been born.  Alpha 5 adds, you must stop Zedd's monster from reaching the time hole!  Tommy agrees.  If the monster goes back in time, no one will be able to stop it.  We have to get there before it does.  Aisha asks, what's going to happen to Kimberly?  Adam adds, we just can't leave her there.  Tommy replies, we just have to hope she's okay until we can get to her.  Rocky, Billy, Adam, Tommy, and Aisha morph and teleport out.  Red Ranger, Blue Ranger, Black Ranger, White Ranger, and Yellow Ranger arrive and face down Goldar, Needlenose, and several of Zedd's Putties.  White Ranger tells Goldar to forget about going back in time, your time here has run out!  Goldar shouts back that they are no match for them!  White Ranger threatens to turn them all into mulch.  Several more of Zedd's Putties arrive.  Black Ranger notes they are surrounded.  White Ranger warns them to keep their eyes open.  Goldar gloats, things don't look so rosy now, do they?!  Time for cactus to practice it's stinging surprise!  This is such a glorious moment!  White Ranger warns if they can't block Goldar's path, their future is doomed. Goldar threatens the Rangers, I hope you are prepared to be weeded out!  Each Ranger battles a group of  Zedd's Putties. In the midst of the battle, Zedd's Putties suddenly take off running.  Black Ranger wonders where they are all going?  White Ranger notes they are heading for the time hole.  The five Rangers chase after Zedd's Putties.  Goldar yells at them to stop.  The Rangers turn around and face Goldar and Needlenose.  Goldar tells them, their fight isn't finished here Rangers.  Needlenose shoots needles that hit the Rangers and paralyze them.  White Ranger recognized them as paralyzing spores.  Goldar told Needlenose, nice job and laughed.  White Ranger vows, you won't get away with this Goldar!  Goldar continues to laugh. White Ranger encourages the rest of the Rangers to fight the effects of the paralyzing spores.  Needlenose and Goldar laugh and vanish.  White Ranger tells the rest of the Rangers we got to catch them before they turn back the clock.  It is still a struggle for the Rangers to move. Meanwhile, Goldar and Needlenose enter the Youth Center and run towards the time hole.  Goldar and Needlenose vanish through the time hole.  The five Rangers race in, but they are too late as the time hole has closed.  Yellow Ranger is sure there is another way to get in.  Black Ranger suggests they go back to the Command Center and tell Zordon.  White Ranger tells the rest of the Rangers, he doesn't want to leave here because it's their only link to Kimberly.  But Adam's right, maybe Zordon can help. At the Command Center, Tommy tells Zordon, we blew it.  Kimberly's trapped in the past.  Zordon tells them it's not time to give up hope.  Aisha agrees.  If Goldar and the monster won, our world would already be destroyed.  Alpha 5 concludes that Kimberly must have defeated the monster.  Zordon tells him no.  I have no evidence to base that conclusion.  Billy points out it's a paradox.  Our world won't change until Kimberly battles the monster in her time.  Tommy tells his friends, there must be some way to help her.
