Welcome To Venus Island - Page Two

Tommy opens the bottle, which contains a message from Lord Zedd.

Trini asks, do you think it's a ransom note for Hallie?  Tommy doesn't know. 

Lord Zedd asks, so Goldar you have returned?  I assume this means you have the girl?   Goldar responds, yes oh fiendish one.  We grabbed her right off the beach.  Lord Zedd is pleased.  Excellent.  Perhaps you have a brain after all.  And the instructions?  Where is the bottle?  Goldar reluctantly responds, I lost it in the battle.  Lord Zedd is in disbelief.  In the what?!  The battle?!  With a little girl?!  Oh, poor Goldar.  It must have be fierce.  I should make soup out of you!  Baboo and Squatt cowered in fear at Lord Zedd's anger.  Lord Zedd continues, actually, this might even be better.  When the Power Rangers found out where the girl is, they'll come to rescue her.  Goldar quickly agrees.  Yes, they always do.  I remember one time when...Lord Zedd yells at him, silence!  When they come to save the girl, we'll ransom her and our price, the Green Ranger.

At the Command Center, Billy is busy scanning the characters into the computer.  The computer should then decode them.  Tommy fills in the rest on what happened.  By the time we got there, Goldar and the Putties took off with Hallie.  Jason thinks maybe the message Goldar drop may tell them something.   Billy states, the computer is decoding the message.  Alpha 5 adds the translation is nearly complete.  The computer prints out a sheet and Billy tears it off, stating, let's see what it says.  He tells his friends, it's instructions to Goldar.  It says take Hallie to Venus Island where she'll join us forever.  Kimberly questions, Venus Island?  Zordon tells them, an island that exists only when Zedd calls it forth as he has done now.  Behold the viewing globe.  The teens gather around the viewing globe and look at images of Venus Island.  Zordon continues, just as Zedd can make the island rise, he can make it sink at any time. If it should sink before Hallie is rescued, she will be lost forever to his evil power.  Trini becomes alarmed.  Zordon, we can't wait.  Jason asks, how do we get there?  Zordon responds, no one but Zedd knows it's location.  It appears whenever he chooses.  Billy is not willing to give up.  There must be something unique about the island we can use to pinpoint it.  Zordon tells them, at sunset the trade winds blow to Venus Island.  Billy you must devise a way to track these winds.  Trini asks Billy, how can you follow the wind?  Billy doesn't answer and becomes deep in thought.

Billy goes to his home to work on the device.  Jason and Trini are there as well.  Trini is reading out loud from a book, the tracking signal interval should be constant in order that vector analysis may be calculated without recalculating period.  Jason points out that it's almost sunset.  Billy rechecks his maps and then announces the tracking device is complete.  I just have to attached it to this weather balloon.  At sunset we'll release it and track it's path in the atmosphere.  Jason's communicator goes off.  Jason responds, we're here Zordon.
