The teens and Jenji were at Rootcore. The teens, except Chip, were bored with another one of Jenji's stories. Jenji: There I stood. Face to face with the dreaded pirate, Half Nose. Despite having my paws ties, and being made to walk the plank...Chip interrupted him by adding to the story. As Jenji showed off the moves he had used against Half Nose, Clare walked in. Clare excitedly told them that Fire Heart had made his first roar. The teens walked over to Clare, where they immediately started cooing over Fire Heart, and completely forgetting about Jenji. Jenji realized he no longer had their interest, blame Fire Heart, and walked away. Only Madison noticed the dejected Jenji leave.
In the pit, Imperious tells Koragg that he always uses magic and could not defeat the Rangers without it. Koragg denies this. Necrolai and Leelee watched the debate with interest. Koragg gives Imperious his dark magic and tells Imperious that he will show him what a powerful warrior he is. Koragg leaves. Imperious gives Necrolai the dark magic. Necrolai is thrilled and promptly uses magic to turn her daughter into an insect. Imperious calls forth Screamer and sends Necrolai and Screamer out to have some fun. Meanwhile Jenji removes Fire Heart from Rootcore and takes him to the woods. Jenji leaves Fire Heart alone in the woods. Necrolai and Screamer arrive in the city. Toby is out on the streets and recognizes Necrolai at once. Toby runs to his store and tells the teens about the bat creature. Toby is determine to hide in his office. The teens race out to the street to face down Necrolai and Screamer. The teens are surprised when Necrolai blasts them with dark magic. The teens quickly morphed. Blue Ranger and Pink Ranger tackle Screamer, while Green Ranger, Yellow Ranger, and Red Ranger battle Necrolai. The Rangers are defeated by Necrolai and Screamer. Madison, Chip, and Nick enter Rootcore. Udonna and Daggeron are upset and tell them that Fire Heart is missing. Udonna adds that Clare is very upset and has been searching the woods. Daggeron notices Jenji trying to creep past them. Daggeron asks Jenji if he knows something. Jenji confesses to taking Fire Heart out and leaving him in the woods. Jenji leads Chip, Nick, and Madison through the woods, where he had left Fire Heart. Nick recognizes his blanket and runs over to pick it up. Madison is amused that Nick is so attached to his baby blanket. Nick explains that it is all he has of his real parents. Madison is abashed as she had not realized that Nick is adopted. Nick tells her it's no problem as his adoptive parents are great and he is not really sure why he hangs on to the blanket. Their conversation is interrupted by Jenji's panic calls. Nick, Madison, and Chip race over. Jenji is distraught, Fire Heart is no longer where Jenji had left him. Madison, Chip, and Nick are worried as well.
Phineas had found and taken Fire Heart to his camp. Phineas becomes totally enchanted with the baby dragon, coming up with names, and doing several dances to entertain Fire Heart. Phineas doesn't lose his enthusiasm, even when Fire Heart spits up on him. Meanwhile, at Rootcore, the teens are concern that Fire Heart has not been found yet. Daggeron brings up another problem, Jenji has run away, leaving a note behind. Daggeron tells the teens that Jenji had been banished from his home planet. Daggeron explains that Jenji was the most powerful cat on his planet, and the king was jealous. The king hired a witch to cast a spell that cause everyone to believe Jenji was evil. Jenji had found some treasure. Jenji was about to open a chest, when Solaris Knight arrive and told him not to, that the chest was a trap. Jenji did not believe him and opened the chest anyways. Soon dark magic emerged from the chest and surrounded Jenji. Acting quickly, Solaris Knight countered the magic. Jenji woke up to find himself in a lamp and realized the chest had been a trapped. Solaris Knight explained he had done it to save him and now Jenji was a powerful genie, but he would be trapped within the lamp. Jenji was upset that he could never leave. Solaris Knight explained that eventually, he would be able to leave for short periods of time, but he had to always return or Jenji would turn to dust. After Daggeron finishes his story, he tells the teens if Jenji does not return in two hours, he will turn to dust. Udonna spots dark magic in the crystal ball - it is Necrolai. The teens prepare to leave, except for Madison who wants to find Jenji before it is too late. Jenji plants himself in a trash dump. Jenji's musings are interrupted by a strange creature. The creature introduces himself, Piggy, and tells Jenji that he is from another solar system. Piggy continues by telling Jenji that one day this place will be crawling with aliens, but for now, it's just him. Piggy hopes to win the lottery and open up a small restaurant on wheels, calling the place "Piggy's". The sound of Madison's voice startles Piggy and Piggy tells Jenji that he won't remember having seen him before hiding. Madison is relieve to have found Jenji and Jenji asks her why she is looking for him. Meanwhile, Pink Ranger, Yellow Ranger, Red Ranger, and Green Ranger are having a difficult time in their battle against Necrolai and Screamer.
