SHELBY

Page Fourteen

Shelby scrapes off an DNA sample.  They blend that DNA with the energy signatures from the five Dino Chargers.  To create the first Ankylo Charger.  Shelby and Kendall build a machine to search for energy signatures that match the Ankylo Charger.  Kendall takes a Dino Charger and believes it will be able to temporarily power our machine while it searches for the Aqua Energem.  Shelby asks, does that mean it can also locate and power the Ankylo Zord?  Kendall believes so.  It works.  Shelby and Kendall grin at each other.  The guys slide into the Dino Lab.  Shelby welcomes them.  Shelby asks, find anything?  Koda thinks he found poison ivy.  Shelby and Kendall stand next to each other as Kendall tells them, well we had a very successful day.  Shelby holds out a Charger and tells them this is a Ankylo Charger.  It's the brain that runs our (Shelby emphasizes our) new invention.  The E Tracer.  Shelby places the Ankylo Charger into the E Tracer.  Riley is very interested in the new machine.  The E Tracer begins searching.  Riley is very excited and tells Shelby and Kendall, you did it!  Everyone excitedly watches.  Shelby explains it's using the satellite network, trying to find an Energem signature.  It's searching for traces of the Aqua Energem.  Data is constantly being fed back on their monitor.  Kendall notes, it's locking on to something.  Kendall tells them, that's definitely the right energy signature, but I can't say if it's an Energem.  It might be a zord.  Riley notes, it isn't too far away.  Shelby is eager to get started and tells the guys, this time we're going to dig in the right place.  Moments later, Shelby, Chase, Riley, Koda, and Tyler are walking in the area of the signal, following the Dino Com's directions.  They pause when they see a giant hole in the ground.  Tyler notes, looks like someone beat us to it.  Suddenly Stingrage and several Vivix jump out from the hole.   Shelby, Chase, Riley, Tyler and Koda race towards the Vivix.  Koda kicks several of the Vivix.  Tyler fights another set of Vivix.  Riley kicks and swings Vivix away.  Shelby kicks another set of Vivix.  Chase also lands several kicks against Stingrage.  Stingrage tells him, you'll get a kick out of fighting me.  Stingrage kicks Chase in the chest and Chase falls to the ground.  Chase shouts, don't let him get away!  He might have the Energem!  Tyler tosses aside a Vivix and runs after Stingrage.  Riley checks the Dino Com and informs them that there is no sign of an Energem.  Tyler fights Stingrage.  Stingrage grabs Tyler by the back of his shirt and states, there might not be an Energem.  But I left a little something for you anyway.  Stingrage tosses Tyler aside.  Koda races towards   Stingrage.  Koda fights Stingrage.  Stingrage is impressed.  Not bad Ranger, but not good enough.  Stingrage strikes Koda with his staff, knocking Koda off his feet.  As Koda falls to the ground, Stingrage uses his staff to shoot at Koda's back.  Koda cries out in pain.  Shelby fights the remaining Vivix. Koda slowly gets back up as Riley, Tyler, and Chase run over to him.  Riley asks Koda if he is okay?  Koda pushes Riley away.  Stingrage shouts, bye bye!  Have fun fighting your friend!  Riley runs over to Koda but Koda flips Riley over.  Koda punches Tyler several times as Tyler yells at him to stop.  Koda sends Tyler spinning into the air.  As Tyler falls, Chase races over and plops onto the ground just as Tyler lands on Chase's back.  Shelby watches and wonders, what's got into him?  Shelby hurries over to Koda, but Koda pushes her away.  Riley tries to calm Koda down and ends up being struck by Koda.  Tyler and Chase rush forwards and each grab one of Koda's arms.  Tyler kicks out Koda's legs as he shouts, get him on the ground!  Koda quickly flips his way back up and kicks Riley and Shelby away.  Tyler notices there is something on Koda's back.  Chase and Tyler grab Koda's arms and push him to the ground.  Koda easily shakes them off and gets back up.  This time Chase and Riley try to hold Koda still.  Riley looks at Koda's back and tells them, it's some kind of stinger.  Pull it out!  Tyler grabs Koda by the waist as Shelby runs up from behind.  As Riley, Chase, and Tyler hold Koda, Shelby pulls out the stinger.  Immediately Koda's rage leaves him.  Chase asks Koda if he is okay and shakily Koda replies, yes, I'm okay.  Why you hug me?  Shelby holds out the stinger for her friends to take a look.  Suddenly the ground shakes.  Ankylo Zord pops up from the hole.  Riley notes, that is one angry zord.  Ankylo Zord swings it's hammer tail at the teens and they quickly leap out of the way.  Ankylo Zord burrows it's way back down into the hole.  Shelby wonders, why would it attack us?  At the Dino Lab, the teens discuss what happened with Keeper and Kendall, who keeps working.   Riley points out that the Ankylo Zord is awake, which means the Aqua Energem bonded with someone.  Shelby asks, so that means there's an Aqua Power Ranger out there?  Keeper confirms it.  But he may not know we exist.  Or may have chosen for some reason not to join us yet.  What is important now is the Ankylo Zord.  It shares the Aqua Energem's power.  It would not normally attack us.  As Keeper was talking, Koda had glance over at the stinger in the case.  He realizes and states that maybe monster sting zord.  Like it sting me. Tyler agrees, that would explain it.  Riley adds, if so, then we need to remove the stinger.  Chase quietly states good luck.  You see the size of that thing?  Shelby volunteers to do it.  Tyler quickly tells her, no way.  It's too dangerous.  Shelby explains, someone has to do it.  Besides, it's my stupid E-Tracer that somehow screwed up and gave away the zord's location to Sledge.  Shelby starts to walk away.  Kendall hurries forward and states, actually (Shelby stops and turns around) your device worked brilliantly.  Sledge got the location of the zord because I didn't encrypt the E-Tracer's code.  It's my fault we lost control of the Ankylo Zord.  Somehow, I'll find a solution.  Clearly upset, Kendall walks pass the teens.  A few moments later, Shelby walks out as well.  Shelby, a discrete distance, follows Kendall through the Amber Beach Dinosaur Museum. When Kendall reaches the docking area, Shelby watches her get into the Amber Beach Dinosaur Museum Vehicle.  Unseen, Shelby climbs into the flatbed and covers up.  After a bit of a drive,  Kendall gets out and goes to the back of vehicle and lifts up one of canvas, to discover Shelby hiding there.  Kendall is startled at first.  Once she regains her composure she tells Shelby stowing away is a really bad idea as she takes out  ropes.  Shelby agrees and adds, and going after the Ankylo Zord alone is also a bad idea.  Kendall replies, I rarely make mistakes.  When I do, I correct them.  No excuses.  Kendall takes out a shovel and hoe and pick and walks away.  Shelby jumps out and walks up to Kendall.  Kendall is tying a rope around the base of a tree as Shelby tells her, look we created this problem together.  Let's solve it together.  Shelby follows Kendall as she walks towards the large hole.  Kendall responds, I simply cannot be responsible for sending you down this hole.  It's just too dangerous.  Stingrage, Poisandra, and several Vivix walk up.  Stingrage tells them, maybe you can't, but I can.  Stingrage uses it's staff and points it towards Shelby and Kendall.  Shelby pushes Kendall out of the way and gets hits by the lasers.  Shelby is knocked into the  hole.  As Shelby is falling, she morphs.  Pink Ranger lands hard at the bottom of the hole.  Pink Ranger dusts herself off as she gets up.  She is grateful she can morph.  Through an opening, Pink Ranger spots Ankylo Zord.  Pink Ranger cautiously greets the zord.  Ankylo Zord begins to walk towards her.  Pink Ranger reminds Ankylo Zord that it is vegetarian.  As Ankylo Zord gets closer, Pink Ranger spots the stinger.  Ankylo Zord begins to charge towards Pink Ranger. Moments later, Ankylo Zord bursts through the ground with Pink Ranger standing on top of it.  Pink Ranger shouts at Stingrage that it has stung it's last victim.  Pink Ranger leaps off Ankylo Zord and fires her Dino Charge Blaster at Curio, Stingrage, and Poisandra.  Curio, Poisandra, and Stingrage are knocked off their feet.  Pink Ranger lands close by.  The rest of the Rangers race up to her, relieved that she is okay.  Pink Ranger tells them, I got the stinger out of the Ankylo Zord.  Red Ranger tells her she is awesome.  Pink Ranger notes, it looks like you guys are still working too hard.  Blue Ranger grabs her by the shoulders and tells her, next time we work smarter.  Red Ranger tells Pink Ranger that he was worried.  Pink Ranger replies, you should have been.  Pink Ranger looks around and comments, looks like it was a close call until I showed up.  Now let's finish this.  As Curio, Poisandra, and Stingrage get back up, Stingrage yells at them, you'll pay for that!  Pink Ranger, Black Ranger, Green Ranger, Blue Ranger, and Red Ranger do their role call.  Pink Ranger tells the them, I'll take down Stingrage. Poisandra commands the Vivix to attack as the Rangers charge towards them.  Red Ranger, Black Ranger, Blue Ranger, and Green Ranger fight the Vivix.  Pink Ranger fights Stingrage.  She yells at him for stinging a zord as she lands a powerful kick.  Pink Ranger actives her Dino Steel armor.  Stingrage tells Pink Ranger that she is really starting to bug him.  Pink Ranger charges towards Stingrage with her Tricera Drill.  Pink Ranger lands a powerful blow with her Tricera Drill.  Stingrage comments, looks like I got stung this time.  Pink Ranger boosts and that's how it's done as Stingrage explodes behind her.  The rest of the Rangers join Pink Ranger and praise her. Soon the magna beam hits Stingrage and it grows to giant size.  Pink Ranger, Blue Ranger, and Red Ranger summon Tricera Zord, Stego Zord, and T-Rex Zord.  Stingrage uses it's staff to fire at the three zords.  Red Ranger shouts encouragement to his zord.  T-Rex Zord shuts it's jaws on Stingrage.  Stingrage tries to pry loose the jaws as it shouts to let go!  Red Ranger calls out a warning, watch out for his stingers!  Blue Ranger suggests we smash him.  Pink Ranger agrees and wants to use Ankylo Zord.  Green Ranger wonders if Ankylo Zord will respond to Pink Ranger.  Pink Ranger is confident Ankylo Zord will, he owes me a favor.  Pink Ranger summons Ankylo Zord.  When it arrives, Dino Charge Megazord/Tri-Ankylo Formation is formed.  The Rangers appear in the cockpit of  the Dino Charge Megazord.  Pink Ranger thinks the combo sounds powerful.  Stingrage mocks them.  That's what you're going to fight me with?!  This will be easy!  Stingrage charges towards Dino Charge Megazord/Tri-Ankylo Formation.  Dino Charge Megazord uses it's Tricera Drill against Stingrage.  Stingrage falls backwards.  Next Dino Charge Megazord/Tri-Ankylo Formation uses it's Ankylo Hammer Punch against Stingrage.  Blue Ranger notes Ankylo Zord very strong. As Stingrage struggles to stay upright, Dino Charge Megazord uses it's Ankylo Final Hammer Punch against it.  The force knocks Stingrage into the sky, where it explodes.  Pink Ranger welcomes Ankylo Zord to the family. The following day, Shelby joins the guys at a table at Dino Bite Cafe.  She complains of the heat. Koda and Tyler slide their drinks away from her.  Shelby notices and tells them, very funny.  Riley tells her, your invention is going to help our search a lot.  (Kendall had fixed the E-Tracer.)  I mean, it's genius.  Shelby is flattered.  Koda grabs a placemat and pencil as he tells his friends that his grandfather is a famous caveman.  He draws on the placemat as he continues, he invented very complicated machine too.  Shelby is impressed.  Koda shows them his drawing - of a wheel.  Everyone chuckles.  Kendall walks over with a gift.  Shelby holds up her fist as she tells Kendall, we crushed it.  Kendall replies, yes, we did crush it.  Shelby gives up and lowers her hand.  Kendall continues, because of your recent invention, the museum has a gift for you.  A fossil from your favorite dinosaur.  Shelby gets very excited as she whips off the lid and exclaims - a triceratops fossil!  As Shelby removes the tissue paper and picks up the fossil, she becomes confused.  I don't recognize this bone.  Koda informs her, that is poop.  Kendall replies, yes Koda.  It's a very rare specimen.  Shelby is not happy - dino dung!  Ewww!  Shelby gives it a small toss and it breaks apart on the floor.  Koda jokes, now lots of rare specimen.  Chase, Tyler, and Riley laugh.  Shelby is disgusted and wipes her hands off on Koda's arm.  Koda passes her a napkin as the rest of the table laughs as Kendall stares stoically ahead.
