The remaining Rangers had managed to teleport to the Power Chamber where Zordon
and Alpha 5 waited.
"This is horrible Zordon, they've got Tanya and Adam." Said Tommy as he took
off his helmet.
"I am well aware of the situation Tommy but I am powerless to do anything."
Replied Zordon in a grave tone.
"We have to find out where they are and mount a rescue attempt." Said Billy
as he went to help Alpha repair the damages caused by the Ultra Rangers' appearance.
"That is impossible Billy, 90% of the systems are still down and it would weeks,
maybe even months before we can complete repairs." Said Alpha.
"Then, we'll use other means." Came an unknown voice.
The people gathered in the Power Chamber slowly turned to face the voice.
There, stood a young teen about Tommy's age, dressed in a white T-shirt and
jeans.
"Mark!" shouted Alice as she ran up to her boyfriend.
"Hey darling, good to see you again." Said Mark as the two embraced.
"Who?" asked Rocky softly.
"That's Mark Anderson, the ex-Red Ranger and ex-leader of the Power Rangers
2015." Whispered Alex as Maxim went up to meet his friend.
"What other means are you talking about?" asked Maxim as he shook Mark's hand.
"The combined technological power of the Titan Zord and the Flash Carrier
will be sufficient in scanning the Sky Base for the two captured Rangers." Explained
Mark.
"The Titan Zord? Here?" asked a surprised Maxim. Mark nodded a reply.
"My main question," asked Zordon, "is how you entered the Power Chamber without
setting off the alarms?"
"That's easy Zordon," replied Mark, "I have the combined powers of the Tyrannosaurus
and the White Tiger. That makes me a Power Ranger and thus I am able to bypass
the defenses."
"Combined?" asked Billy.
"Maxwell," explained Mark, "the original Blue Ranger of 2015, merged the energies
in the Tyrannosaurus and White Tiger power coins and created a new power coin.
It is because of this power, that we are able to activate the Titan Zord."
"Interesting." Said Billy as he nodded his head in understanding.
"Can we get back to the problem at hand?" asked Tommy, obviously frustrated
by the fact that he was unable to help his comrades.
"No problem." Said Mark as he nodded to Opus who promptly grabbed Billy as
dragged him after the older teen.
Meanwhile, in a dungeon in the Sky Base, Adam and Tanya hugged one another.
"You okay?" asked Adam concernedly. Tanya nodded a reply.
"Where are we?" she asked as she felt her left wrist where her communicator
once rested.
"I think we're in the Sky Base's dungeon." Replied Adam as he felt the wall
in front of him. It was made of metal and was fairly rusted. Suddenly, Adam noticed
a skeletal structure lying on the floor.
"One of older occupants?" asked Tanya as she looked over his shoulder.
"You check in... but you don't check out." Said Adam grimly.
"So this is your plan?" asked King Mondo as he looked at the two Rangers in
the dungeon. "I like it."
"We still need the remaining four Rangers." Said Genocide as he looked at his
muck warriors. They then nodded and disappeared in five beams of energy teleportation.
Meanwhile, all the teens except for Mark, Billy and Opus had returned to Angel
Grove.
"Don't worry Maxim, you walk Kat home, we'll take care of your Godfather."
Said Alex. Maxim nodded reluctantly and prepared to escort Katherine to her
home. When he turned his head, he saw Jenny. She looked a little irritated but
kept quiet.
"I guess someone's jealous." Chided Alice. Maxim prepared to defend himself
but nothing came out of his open mouth.
"Well, you better get moving," said Tommy before whispering into Maxim's ear,
"take care of her." Maxim nodded and turned to Katherine.
"Ready?" Kat nodded and the two walked off.
The five muck warriors looked on as Rocky entered his house and the other Rangers
walked off. The lead muck warrior, whose colour was purple compared to the others
who were brownish in colour, nodded its head and the five creatures ran across
the road to Rocky's house.
The muck warriors turned into their ooze forms and dripped into the DeSantos
living room. Rocky was watching television and did not notice them enter the
room, nor did he hear them reform into their humanoid forms.
However, he noticed them when he saw their reflections in his TV screen. "What
the...?" he said as he rolled away from the five intruders. As he got up, his
zeonisers appeared and he connected them and morphed into his Ranger form.
"Target has upgraded," said the purple muck warrior, "caution is advised."
The others nodded their heads as they attacked.
"You'll not get me that easily." Said Rocky as he blocked off the attacks of
three of the muck warriors. He, however, failed to avoid the remaining two's
attacks. Rocky was thrown into a wall. 'I need help.' Thought Rocky as he ran
out of his house.
Elsewhere, Maxim and Katherine continued to walk to her house silently. Katherine
decided to break the silence and spoke, "Do you really hate me that much?"
Maxim looked at her in shock. He thought she had not noticed. "No." he said,
and he meant it.
"You're lying." Said Kat as she brushed her hair out of her eyes.
'Wow,' thought Maxim as he looked at her, 'she's beautiful.'
"No... I'm not." Said Maxim, more confidant than before. "In fact, I really
like you."
Katherine looked at him in shock. "Really?" she asked. Katherine had taken
a liking to the youngster since she met him but the thought of hurting Tommy
so soon after he lost Kimberly had prevented her doing something.
"Yeah... well... err..." Maxim stammered, he started to turn red in the face.
He was not sure whether telling her anything was good for the time stream.
Maxim knew that he did not exist in this point in time and having a relationship
with someone in the past, could cause a chronicle displacement and Maxim did
not want that to happen.
"How old are you?" asked Katherine as she tried to change the subject.
"Err... 16." Replied Maxim.
They reached the Hillards' home before they knew it. "Err... we're here. Be
careful." Said Maxim as he started to leave.
"How's about coming in? I'll make some tea and we can talk more." Said Katherine.
"Sure." Said Maxim as he pressed a few buttons on his communicator and entered
the house and closed the door behind him.
Back at the DeSantos' estate, Rocky was getting his clock cleaned by the muck
warriors. Rocky was almost unconscious when a red and white energy beam appeared.
The muck warriors immediately recognized the enemy as being the Mega Ranger.
"Attack greater threat!" ordered the leader of the group.
"Hey, wait!" shouted Rocky as he clutched his rib. "I'm not finished with you
guys!"
"Don't worry, I'll take care of them." Said Mark in a tone that told Rocky
why he was the leader of the Power Rangers 2015.
Mark threw one of the muck warriors in a classic judo throw. Then, he did a
thrust kick at the next enemy, sending it flying into a tree and smashing into
ooze. He then parried a punch from another muck warrior and punched it in the
chest multiple times before doing a back kick which knocked the fourth muck warrior
to the ground.
Mark spun around, half expecting the leader to attack him from behind. However,
the muck leader was not there but instead had grabbed Rocky and was preparing
to teleport away.
"No!" shouted Mark as his staff appeared. The staff had odd markings on it
and was made of silver and gold. Mark immediately fired a golden bolt of energy
but the muck leader managed to teleport away before the beam connected.
"Damn!" shouted Mark before looking back at the remaining muck warriors. He
needed something to vent his anger on.
'Ouch!' thought Billy as he saw what Mark did to the muck warriors through
the Viewing Globe. 'I must never get on that guy's bad side.'
"Damn, they got Rocky." Said Opus as he looked away from the Viewing Globe.
"But it allows us to find what they've been taken to. Have you locked the
location?"
"Damn! I lost it! I couldn't confirm it." Said Opus as he banged his hands
against the consoles.
"Then," said Billy, "I'll get captured by the enemies."
"No! Let me go!" said Opus.
"You're a future Ranger, you're too much of a threat. They'd never take you.
I've got no powers, I'll go instead." Said Billy, full of resolve.
"Look, Billy, if this is about your lost powers..." said Opus.
"This isn't about my powers!" shouted Billy, cutting off Opus's sentence.
"This is about helping my friends."
Opus gave up trying to talk Billy out of his crazy idea. "Okay, let me tell
the others."
"No!" shouted Billy as he grabbed Opus's hand. "They'll try to stop me. I must
do this." Billy then promptly teleported out of the Power Chamber.
"Take care." Said Opus as he continued to try to locate the captured Rangers.
Alpha 5 looked at him from behind the elevator door leading to the Zord hangar
bay.
It was at that moment that Zordon appeared in his interdimensional tube. "Where
is Billy?"
"He... went out." Said Opus as he continued with his job. The sage nodded
and then disappeared.
Alex looked through the window to the world outside and thought, 'I don't belong
here.'
Alex turned his head and saw that the rest of the Rangers were playing a card
game of some sorts but Alex decided to get some fresh air and walked out of the
house.
Alex thought of the happenings of the past two years. In the year 2017, he ]
was chosen by Zordon and given the Red Ranger's powers from Mark. He tried to
lead but found that he was better as second-in-command and left the leadership
role to Maxim.
In the year 2018, his Ninja Powers were 'destroyed' when Ninjor was captured
and Zordon was thrown into a dimensional abyss. Saga appeared and gave them the
Flash crystals. However, each crystal chose its user, not the other way around
and the Yellow Flash Crystal chose him. Now, he was the Yellow Ranger, not the
Red.
Alex did not hate the fact that he lost his old role to Magnum, the original
Green Flash Ranger who was presently recuperating from serious wounds on Aquitar
and then to Opus. He actually was happy as that freed him up to do what he liked
best, kick alien butt. Whether it was Genocide's monsters or Lord Icurus's, he
enjoyed doing so. So, why was he feeling so restless now?
'I know why,' thought Alex, 'I need action and it isn't happening.' Alex banged
his left fist into the tree beside him. He then grabbed his hand as he felt
incredible pain, like when he lost to one of Lord Icurus's monsters for the first
time, only that was emotional pain compared to the present physical one.
"Come on Alex, join us for a game." Said Jenny gamely as she grabbed hold of
him and dragged him back into the house.
"Okay." Said Alex with a smile and voluntarily followed her. 'I need some action
soon.' Thought the youngster before closing the door behind him.
Back at Katherine's home, Maxim and Kat found out that her parents were not
home. Maxim sat on the sofa and waited for Katherine to finish boiling the tea.
"Need any help?" asked Maxim.
"No, it's okay." Came the reply from the kitchen.
"If you say so." Said Maxim as he picked up the remote for the television and
switched on the TV.
Katherine walked out of the kitchen with a tray in hand. All Maxim could see
was how form hugging Kat's pink T-shirt was. He gave himself a slap, 'Don't let
your imagination run wild.'
"One lump or two?" asked Katherine as picked up a sugar cube.
"Two please." Said Maxim, feeling a little awkward. Here was a person whom
he tried to hate but failed to do so. Yet, now he was talking to her in her home
and having wild thoughts. 'Mom would kill me.' Thought Maxim.
"So, what's life in the 21st Century like?" asked Katherine before taking a
sip from her tea.
"It's very different from life in this time, one thing's for sure." Replied
Maxim and then took a sip from his cup. "This taste great."
"Thanks," said Kat with a smile, "it's my special brew."
"Well, how's your relationship with Tommy?" asked Maxim, quite curious about
events at that time.
"Quite okay." Replied Kat softly. "Shouldn't you already know? You're from
the future."
"The future is never confirmed. The events of the past decide the future."
Replied Maxim as he took another sip from his tea. 'She's beautiful.' Thought
Maxim again. 'Oh well.'
It was that moment that the phone rang. Katherine leaned towards Maxim so she
could get the phone that was behind Maxim. Maxim got a good look at her attributes
up-close before she picked up the phone. She then gave him a wink before she
answered the phone.
Maxim felt a lump in his throat. 'I wish she was wearing a loose shirt, there'd
be more to see. Wait! What am I thinking?" thought Maxim.
It was then that he noticed that Katherine's face became quite serious. "What
is it?" asked Maxim after she put down the phone.
"That was Tommy, they've found them." Replied Katherine.
CHAPTER NINE: SO IT BEGINS
"He what?!" shouted Tommy as he looked at Opus, murder on his mind.
"He decided that he should sacrifice himself so that we could find the others."
Said Opus, not happy about the present happenings.
"Have you?" asked Katherine as she tried to calm Tommy down.
"Yes." Replied Mark flatly. "He's held in the Sky Base dungeon in Section G-3.
An easy to breach area."
"Easy? None of the Zords can enter space." Said Tommy.
"Yes they can," replied Maxim, "the Flash Carrier is capable of space travel.
We used it to go to the moon a while back to rescue a friend of mine."
"Right but what about the Titan Zord or our Zords, they can't enter space,
right?" said Tommy as he slowly cooled down.
"We'll do this alone." Replied Maxim and he nodded to Mark. He knew the ex-leader
had never wanted to be a ranger since he left. Yet, he was the only original
Ranger still in Angel Grove when help was needed, thus he became the Mega Ranger.
Mark had made it clear that he never wanted to be in-charge anymore.
Mark nodded back and Tommy nodded too, in understanding. "Bring 'em back."
"I will Tommy." Said Maxim as the group left.
Billy looked around his prison until he noticed the trio in a corner. "Guys?"
"Billy?" Billy could barely identify Tanya's voice, it sounded so weak.
"You guys okay?" asked Billy when he reached them.
Rocky appeared from the shadows, "I'm fine, only a few cracked ribs... but
Adam and Tanya are badly dehydrated and undernourished. They've been here far
too long."
"Only a few hours and this has happened to them?" Billy was utterly shocked
until he noticed that the air in the dungeon was dryer than normal. "Mondo's
trying to kill us by absorbing the liquid content within our bodies."
"If this is true, I'll soon be affected, right?" asked Rocky anxiously.
"Don't worry," said Billy, "the others will be here soon." 'I hope.' He thought.
King Mondo continued to look at the Rangers trapped in his dungeon. "Maybe
I shall keep Billy alive so that he can built me a few monsters."
"Forget it Mondo, he'd never built any monsters for you without sabotaging
them." Said Genocide as something caught his eye. Looking outside the Sky Base,
he immediately realized what it was. "Mondo, we have company."
Jenny looked at Maxim and asked, "So, how was your talk with Miss Hillard?"
"Why?" asked Maxim as he piloted the Flash Carrier towards the Sky Base.
"Just curious." Lied Jenny as she inspected her instruments.
"Someone's jealous." Joked Alex.
"Am not!" shouted Jenny in protest.
"Sure, sure, whatever." Said Alex as he waved her away.
"Alex, stop bullying Jenny." Said Alice in her usual commanding tone.
"Yes ma'am." Said Alex as he was taken aback by the most senior of the Rangers
in the Flash Carrier snapping at him. "I'm sorry Jenny."
"You're forgiven." Said Jenny as she nodded in thanks to Alice.
Alice winked in reply and checked the radar screen in front of her. It was
empty, the enemy did not know that they were coming. She then turned to look
at Jenny and then at Maxim. There was no denying the attraction they had for
each other. Since Jenny came into the lives of the Ultra Rangers, she and Maxim
had some kind of chemistry going but the two never made it obvious.
Alice then smiled to herself, she suddenly remembered that Maxim's brother,
Kirin, had a girlfriend called Jenny who was the original Pink Ranger of the
Power Rangers 2015. 'Wow, wouldn't it be a coincidence if Jenny and Maxim got
together?' thought Alice.
Alice then turned her thoughts to Mark, her boyfriend on Earth. She had accidentally
came across the fact that Mark was a Power Ranger. She then told him she knew.
From that day on, she became a prime target for Lord Zedd's attacks. Mark also
did his best to prevent her from finding out who the other Rangers were. In the
end, Zordon decided to give her prototype Gold Powers created out of the Morphin'
Grid, although not as powerful as the original, still quite formidable, and
she became one of the Rangers.
From that day on, she and Mark had a whirlwind relationship, which ended in
Mark and her getting engaged. She was three years younger than Mark but that
did not disturb them. Now however, Alice was not so sure. Mark was in Angel
Grove University now and would soon move to Los Angeles. Alice was afraid that
her relationship with Mark would end up like Tommy's relationship with Kimberly.
She trusted Mark but she did not know whether she could trust herself.
Alice's thoughts were broken when the radar detected multiple blips in the
air space in front of them. "Incoming!" shouted Alice.
"Later than I expected." Muttered Maxim as he began to make evasive maneuvers.
The gigantic rectangular looking cruiser started to slowly spin as the Quadra
fighters started firing at the Flash Carrier.
"Alex! Aim in the middle of their formation and spilt them up!" ordered Maxim.
"No problem boss!" acknowledged Alex.
"Alice! I want to know how the Quadra fighters split up!"
"Right!" replied Alice.
"Opus! Raise shields!"
"Done!" shouted Opus.
"Jenny! Make sure the energy systems hold out, I don't want a failing system!"
"On it!" said Jenny.
"Let's kick metallic butt!" shouted Maxim as an energy beam blasted into the
middle of the fighter squadron formation.
The Quadra fighters immediately spilt up into two groups.
"Sector G-2 and F-9!" shouted Alice.
"Opus! Take the Aerial Zord and take out the fighters in G-2!"
"Consider it done." Said Opus as he disappeared into the hangar section of
the Flash Carrier.
"Jenny! Pilot the Heli Zord and attack F-9!"
"No prob!" acknowledged Alice as she gave Maxim thumbs up.
"Be careful and don't push it." said Maxim just loud enough for Jenny to hear.
"I will." Replied Jenny before leaving.
The two side bay doors of the Flash Carrier opened and the two Flash Zords
flew out of them and prepared to engage the enemy. Meanwhile, the Flash Carrier
continued on its way to the Sky Base.
Jenny could not help but think, once again, how she got into such fights with
intergalactical enemies. It started two weeks before. She had gone to Angel
Grove from her birthplace of Chicago. She met her best friend Magnum when she
entered the Angel Grove High School. She came across Magnum's dual identity
by accident. He had been heavily injured by a monster, which later gave the
Ultra Rangers a hard time. Zordon told Jenny that he needed a temporary Green
Ultra Ranger to help the Rangers and she took over the mantle, thus, she became
the Green Ultra Ranger.
Now, she had to fight off over twenty Quadra fighters and then meet up with
the other Rangers at the Sky Base. 'How do I get myself into these things?'
she thought once more before engaging the enemies.
Opus blasted the Quadra fighter in front of him to smithereens before swinging
to the left to avoid enemy fire. 'Just over a dozen left to go.' Thought Opus
before he recalibrated his targeting systems.
He did not really want to fight. He was a scholar, much like his idol, Billy
Cranston. However, he never got a chance to meet the genius as he died in 2011,
yet he met him now and was working alongside him. He actually managed to meet
his idol and meeting him taught Opus that he needed to fight on to protect the
people of Earth, no matter what his personal feelings were, they were secondary
compared to protecting innocents.
Opus swerved to the right and came up behind one of the Quadra fighters. He
fired a volley of energy bolts which destroyed the fighter almost immediately.
'This is for you Billy.'
"I'd advise you to attack the Flash Carrier, but I think you have your own
plans." Said Genocide as he saw the Flash Carrier continue its approach to the
Sky Base.
"Quite right." Said the machine king as he gave Klang some orders. "Don't fail
me this time." Said King Mondo as Klang left.
The Flash Carrier docked next to the Sky Base. "Odd, you would think that they
already knew we were here." Said Alice.
"Yeah, it's too quiet. I don't like it." Said Alex as he placed his left hand
on his blaster.
"We know that we are just above the dungeon, so be careful." Said Maxim as
the trio ran towards an elevator.
Upon entering the elevator, the elevator automatically went down one level.
"A trap... definitely a trap." Muttered Alex.
As the elevator door opened, the Rangers saw the captured Rangers sitting at
a corner in the dungeon cell. "You okay?" asked Maxim as Alice and Alex stood
behind him to guard his rear.
Billy replied in a croaked voice, "I'm a lot better than the others. Adam and
Tanya need medical attention."
"The Flash Carrier has the facilities." Said Maxim as he blasted the cell open.
Billy walked out, besides being a white pale, he was fine. Adam, however,
was looking really bad. He had blisters all over his face and looked dehydrated.
"Tanya? Rocky?" asked Maxim. A look of concern on his face.
"Rocky's a lot better and is helping Tanya out." Replied Billy as he left with
Adam and Alice.
Rocky walked, even more pale-looking than Billy. Tanya looked very dehydrated
and her eyes had lost the usual sparkle in them.
"Alex! Move 'em out! I'll be right behind you!" ordered Maxim. Alex gave him
a thumb up and started to help the two out.
Outside the Sky Base, the Ultra Zords had been victorious over the Machine
Empire's Quadra fighters and were on their way to meet the others.
"Hey! Isn't that the Flash Carrier?" asked Jenny.
"Yes, it is, and it's floating away from the Sky Base. Something is wrong."
Said Opus as the two Flash Zords increased their speed and zoomed towards the
Sky Base.
"Sithspawn!" cursed Alex as he saw the Flash Carrier float away.
"Well, that is bad." Muttered Billy weakly.
"We're not out of the game yet." Said Maxim as he caught up with the group.
Numerous Cogs were behind him. "Hey! Where's the hatch?"
"Out there." Said Alice grimly as she pointed at the window.
"Oh crud." Said Maxim as he turned to face the Cogs. Suddenly, a thought struck
him. "Flash Jet Zord! To me now!" shouted Maxim into his communicator.
The front hatch of the Flash Carrier opened up and a red jet fighter streaked
out of the opening. It headed for the Sky Base at a speed that exceeded the
Flash Aerial Zord and the Flash Heli Zord.
Meanwhile, King Mondo could not help but smile as he saw the Ultra Rangers
struggling to fight off the Cogs and protect the weakened Zeo Rangers. "I guess
this plan needed my personal touch, eh Genocide?"
"No, the Ultra Rangers probably have a back-up plan. I've battled them too
long not to know their tricks." Said Genocide as three flashes of light got
his eye. 'Like those.' He thought.
The Jet Zord fired a plasma blast at the sealed hatch of the Sky Base. "Hold
your breath!" shouted Maxim as the Jet Zord warned him two seconds before the
explosion.
The Rangers and the Cogs were immediately sucked out of the Sky Base and into
the vacuum of space. The Jet Zord, Aerial Zord and Heli Zord immediately started
to pick up the scattered Rangers.
"Jenny! Opus! Get everyone back to the Flash Carrier!" ordered Maxim as he
began to do docking procedures with the Sky Base.
"What about you and Alex?" asked Jenny.
"We're going to get the zeonisers." Said Maxim.
"Alright! Action!" shouted Alex with glee.
"Okay, but be careful." Said Opus as the other two Zords flew off.
"Duh!" said Alex as he got off the Jet Zord. "Where do we look boss?"
Maxim activated his energy scanner within his helmet. "Level B-13."
"Alright, we're gone." Said Alex as the two ran off.
"Told you." Said Genocide with a chuckle.
"Grrr... Klang! Send some Cogs to level B-13 and send some Cogs to stop those
interlopers!" ordered King Mondo as smoke appeared from his head.
"Yes sire. At once sire." Said Klang as he ran off.
The Cogs appeared without warning and immediately attacked the two Rangers.
"Go ahead Maxim, I'll hold them off." Said Alex.
"I won't leave you." Said Maxim as he knocked away a spear and then kicked
the owner aside.
"You don't have a choice." Said Alex as he gave one of the Cogs a jumping
spinning kick, sending it flying into a group of Cogs.
Maxim nodded and ran off down the corridor. Some of the Cogs pursued him.
Meanwhile, Alex continued his battle with the metal soldiers.
"Twenty Cogs have been stationed at what the zeonisers have been kept sire."
Said Klang as he returned to the bridge.
"Well done Klang." Replied the Machine King.
"A lot of good it will do." Said Genocide.
"I don't see you doing something about it." Said King Mondo, obviously angered
by the purple-clad alien.
"I have. Even as we speak, a monster of mine has attacked the remaining Zeo
Rangers, Tommy will die." Said Genocide.
The red-clad Ranger slammed into a wall which knocked the wind out of him.
"Tommy!" shouted Katherine as she ran to her fallen leader's side.
"Can't handle the pressure eh?" asked the monster as it continued its advance
on the Rangers. It looked like a Minotaur, but had a broadsword as a weapon
instead of the usual club. It's horns and torso were made of metal and its eyes
had a sinister look to them.
"I can handle it, but can you?" rebutted Tommy as he took out his Zeo Laser
Pistol and fired at the monster. The blast deflected off the monster harmlessly.
"That the best you can do Zeo weaklings?" taunted the monster.
"Well, that's just prime." Muttered Tommy.
Meanwhile, in the Power Chamber, Alpha and Mark were trying to find the monster's
weakness. "This monster's weakness is so hard to find!" exclaimed Alpha.
"Imagine what it was like when we battled monsters Alpha." Said Mark, trying
to sound humorous but failing poorly.
"I don't see why you can't just go and help them." Said Alpha as he continued
to check the scanners.
"There are reasons." Muttered Mark. He had valid reasons. The Mega Ranger powers
were essential to activate the Titan Zord. Without it, the Zord would not work.
However, when Maxwell created the Mega Ranger powers, he could only make them
exist for a limited number of transformations. If Mark morphed too many times,
the powers would be gone.
"I hope they are good ones," said Alpha totally unconvinced, "because Tommy
and Katherine are in deep trouble."
