Chapter 7:
Big Sisters

It was an ordinary day for some, but not for Aya and Misty who were searching for someone. The duo decided to use the hotspot of Angle Grove - the local juice bar. “Hey, Wattson, have you seen a little girl with long black pig tails around here.” Hart questioned the owner of the bar/gym.

“No, Misty. Sorry.” The big man behind the bar answered back. He knew everyone’s , face and change of hir that had come in, but no one met that description. The two decided to ask their friends the agile female saw that two of them were busy with sparring, but the multi-talented one saw blue sitting at the juice bar.

“Bill, have you seen Maria?” Aya questioned the big brained boy who was speed reading through one of his favorite books. “We can’t find her anywhere.” She informed as the teen she was speaking to stopped reading and got off the stool.

“Don‘t worry. I‘m sure she‘s alright.” Cranston said as he and Kwan gathered around Hart who seemed to be watching the brawl between Taylor and Lee Scott. The fight was put on hold when Brock dodged a charge from his leader and their leader saw that the other members faces.

“Hey, guys, what’s up? You guys look like you just lost something.” Gary said to them as he decided to catch his breath on the stairs.

“Not something, Gary, someone. A twelve year old girl named Maria.” The pink fighter explained to him.

“You see: Misty and I volunteered to be Big Sisters for the day. She was supposed to be here a half an hour ago.” Aya stated to them - filling them in on the purpose of this new person.

“You don’t think she’s in some sort of trouble, do you?” Misty questioned to her fellow female fighter since she had a feeling that Jessie would stoop to kidnapping if it meant a shot at them.

“Ladies, just relax. There’s no need to fear. Detective Brock is here.” The dancer of the group commented to his friends with a good natured laugh not knowing that someone was messing with the knob to the hot water to the shower system. “Besides how much trouble can one little girl cause.” He stated to them and the others could see what he means by that.

“Talk about a bad way to start the day. Who’d do a bad thing like that anyway.” The martial artist of the team said to them as he and the others were laughing at roughly ten soggy men with shampoo still in their hair came running out of the shower: screaming.
“Maria.” The two girls of the five heroes said as one when they saw a little girl holding the main water valve near the entrance to the shower area. Back on the moon Jessie was on another one of her rants.

“I’m so sick of those do-gooders. I’ve got to find someway to get rid of them.” She said while looking at the planet from the balcony. “Wait, I’ve got a plan. Nanba, Persar come here.” She said as the evil woman remembered something from the past, and walked off to meet the two in question. Back on earth the two female fighters decided to speak with the girl they were after.

“Maria, we’re not mad at you.” Aya said to the one having a banana smoothie. Said girl turned to face the two that were facing her. “Why did you turn off the hot water?” She questioned; wondering why a sweet girl like her would do something so mean.

“I just wanted to get your attention. That’s all.” The young one said back as if turning off hot water was not a big deal.

“Maria, just be yourself. We’ll be your friend no matter what you do.” Hart said to their borrowed child.

“You will?” The little girl questioned since this was a first to her.

“Sure. That’s what being friends is all about.” The gymnist said back with a smile. “Right?” She questioned to her old friend.

“Right.” Aya said back since that is what she was raised to believe and so far it has worked just fine. “Now, how would you like to go on a picnic? We’ll pack a giant basket and have lots of fun.” The multi-talented member said and received a happy nod in return.

“I hope you know what we’re getting ourselves into.” Misty said to her old chum with a whispering voice. Back in space the evil one had found the item she needed for this plan to work.

“I’ve located the ancient power egg, and with them we’ll be rid of the Power Rangers. We’ll use the eggs to surround those stupid Power Geeks with an evil force that not even Zordon can stop.” She said to her three main grunts, and finished with an evil cackle. Once the cackle was out of her system she transported the four of them to the spot where the eggs were.

‘Have to admit: Zordon knows how to hid things.’ The cat thought as he saw how deep the cave was on their way in, and was surprised how far their prize was.

“Ah, the Power Eggs. Ours for the taking.” Jessie said when they saw the case.
“All this egg talk is making me hungry.” Munuatt informed the others as he wiped away the drool from his mouth.

“Those are magic eggs. You don’t eat them.” The passive body builder shouted out of anger to his old chum.

“Quiet!” The swords-cat shouted as a means to just silence the other two.

“Open the box.” The mistress of magic shouted to the gut of the team.

“Yes, evil one.” The bottomless pit said back before walking over to the container. As soon as the big guy grabbed it he was slammed away by a six prism shield.

“Great, now you broke it. Come here, you.” Ba-Choke shouted as he began to snuff out to smoke on the glutton with his hands.

“I forgot. Only a child can open this box.” Jessie shouted with a groan of disgust. Since they could do more here she transported them back to base. “Nanba! Oh, Nanba. I need a special monster right away. One that can get his hands on a young brat. He needs to ruthless, nasty, and mean. You know…” She said to the creator of creatures.

“Of course, my queen.” The orange haired creature said back to her.

“I want a talking chicken.” She said back to him; believing that fit all the specs she just said.

“Yes, your evilness. An excellent choice. I even have one ready to go.” He said back to her before walking over and picking up the statue he spoke of. “The most horrifying the world had ever seen.” He said to her while presenting the item. “Very soon now, the child will be in your hands.” He said back to her once she was done with some more cackling.

“You better be right, Nanba, or you’ll live out your days as a sea slug.” Repulsa threated as the man put the creature on the conveyor belt.

“Yes, evil one, whatever you say.” He said after placing the creature on the belt. “Now into the Monster Maker, and in thirty seconds he will be done.” The creator of creatures said after making the belt turn which caused the creature to go into the machine.

“He’s disgusting! Just looking at him makes me sick. He’s perfect. Those Power Rangers are goners.” Their leader said once she saw the multi colored bird with a pair of hedge clippers stand before her. Back on earth pink and yellow were now in the park with their new friend.

“Hey, Maria, come eat lunch. It‘s really good.” Misty said to their ‘sister’.
“Okay.” The girl said back before sitting down on the cloth. “Thanks for being my friends, guys. My dad tries real hard, but there are things he just doesn’t understand. You know what I mean?” She stated and questioned once she was on the picnic cloth.

“Maria, any time you wanna talk. We’ll listen, okay?” Kwan said to their new friend as she was lying down on her belly.

“Yeah. You know that’s what friends are all about.” Misty said as she preferred an Indian sitting style.

“Yeah.” The young lady said back; agreeing that they did have a good point.

“So…who’s the raddest boy in your class.” Misty questioned after dusting the chip crumbs from her hands.

“Are you kidding? They’re all dorks. Yuck.” She said back at them causing the two to giggle since that is how they viewed boys at her age.

“She’ll learn.” The agile one sing-song back to her fellow hero. As they laugh a bit longer Maria saw someone land behind her two big sisters.

“Who are those guys?” She questioned causing the two others to turn and see the stone soldiers appear around them.

“Looks like we have picnic crashers.” Aya said as she rose to her feet.

“Putty Patrolers.” Misty said as she also rose to her feet. With a civilian they could transform nor could they leave her to do so; with no other options they fought as is. “Maria, come here. Get between us.” Pink instructed to the citizen.

“What’s going on?” She questioned as the creatures were only surrounding them and nothing more. With nothing else to say the two tried to fend them off while telling the grunts something:

“Leave us alone.” Aya shouted.

“Yeah, go back where you came from.” Misty shouted, but their effort was pointless as the girl they were really after had been grabbed by two.

“Hey, get your hands off me, creep. I said let go.” She shouted, but her words did not work. With the package secured Jessie sent them somewhere else which left the two heroes thinking on thing: what was her plan this time.

“Great, now what are we gonna do?” The Ptera hero said once they left since neither of them knew where they were going.
“They’ve taken the girl to the cave. Good that’s finished. Now, get her to open that thing and we get the eggs.” She ordered to her minions that were still on earth.

“I, myself, will escort the eggs back to you, my queen. I want you two goofs to come with me.” The swordsman of her team said, and he maily said the last part because he may need a shield. “I’m talking about you, you nitwits.” He said to the two in question once they were sporting looks of confusion.

“Go get the eggs.” Jessie shouted since she knew the more time they spend gabbing the quicker the Rangers will be on their case. Back at the Youth Center the guys were now just chilling.

“Coming right up.” Wattson called out after he had finished Brock’s order. “Here you go, one Wattson special. You guys is coming out next.” He said after placing the extra large banana split down in front of the dancer, and then gestured to his friends to either side of him.

“Thanks Wattson.” Brock Taylor said back with a smile on his face.

“You couldn’t eat that. You can’t eat that. No way.” Gary said back as his friend had already started in on it. At that time pink and yellow had made it to the juice bar.

“Guys. Guys. Guys. We have a serious problem.” Aya said aloud causing them hear them out.

“Jessie just kidnapped Maria. Six Putty Patrolers came out of nowhere and grabbed her. WE were going to go after them, but…” Misty started to speak, but let her friend finish the sentence.

“But I thought we should get help.” Aya finished the comment, but this still left the others a little curious about something.

“But why would Jessie want to kidnap a little kid.” Bill questioned since to him they are her main trouble on this planet.

“I don’t know, Bill. We must talk to Zordon.” Gary said the first sentence, but whispered the last part. They all tried their com lines, but all they got was a busy signal.

“That’s odd. The communicators aren’t working.” The inventor of the item stated to the others.

“This is really turning out to be more than a bad hair day.” Misty said to the others as a way to relieve some of the tension, but had a feeling that she failed.

“What now?” The female martial artist questioned since she was very worried about the kid.

“We gotta get to the Command Center.” Brock said and was about to try their other means to talk to their founder, but was stopped, by the one to his left.

“Teleportation’s down too.” Gary said before adding, “Do some repairs Bill.” HE requested to his friend.

“Negative. Repairs on these could take hours.” He confessed to them causing them to feel depressed since they could not contact their boss and see what the latest problem was. “However there is one possible alternative. You see I’ve been manufacturing a little surprise in my garage. I’m sure it can get us to the Command Center.” He informed the others, and they knew they could trust them since he was the one that built the communicators. “Is anybody interested?” He offered to the others.

“I’m in.” Saber-tooth tiger spoke first.

“Me too.” Tyrano said as well.

“Let’s do it.” Mastadon said too, and they all left. The five heroes walk to their friend’s home went off without any distractions, and once there the other four saw his little side project.

“Well, what do you think? I call it the Rad-Bug.” Bill said to the others as they all were looking at a Herbie “It’s capable of transporting us anywhere on the planet’s surface.” The inventor said to them, in a nutshell. What it could do.

“The Rad-Bug.” Aya said as she looked in the window to see if there was something knew about the interior.

“So, what’s so rad about it?” The dancer questioned out of curiosity.

“It does zero to 3,000 in 2.8 seconds.” The builder explained at little feature wich surprised them.

“3,000?” Lee Scott questioned in awe.

“I’m sold.” The Mastodon master said with a clap of the hands.

“Me too. Let’s do it.” The Ptera-warrior said back. With that settled” yellow, red, and pink got in the back. Black and blue got up front.

“Okay, everyone, buckle up.” Bill said as he pulled it out of the driveway. After a few moments they achieved the right speed, and were off to the Command Center.

“Yo, Bill, what’s this do?” The axe wielder said as he was about to press a button on the panel.

“Brock, no, don’t touch that.” He said back and was able to land successfully into their base.

“It…It’s an old car?” The robot questioned; wondering why that would trigger the alarms for a split second. “Oh, Power Rangers, how did you get here. Teleportation and communication has been out for hours.” Alpha said to the five that were exiting the vehicle.

“Nevermind that. You all look distressed. What is troubling you?” Their boss said to them, and waited for an answer.

“I’m afraid our old pal, Jessie, is at it again.” Aya started, and let her friend explain what she meant.

“She kidnapped a twelve year old girl and is holding her captive.” Misty explained their current situation.

“What do you think she’s up to Zordon.” The casual one questioned with concern in his voice.

“Unfortunetly something I had been fearing for ten millenia.” The blue faced man said back to them. The heroes knew through movies that when it had that big of a number the information was anything but good.

“Oh-no. Jessie had located the Power Eggs?” The robot questioned out of fear. The humans were confused as to what they were talking about.

“Precisley.” the being before them said calmly.

“Power Eggs? I don’t get it.” Brock stated in a blunt way what all five of them were thinking.

“Behold the images in the Viewing Globe and all your questions will be answered.” The founder said to them and activated the device behind them. “It is an ancient tale that dates back to when the battle between good and evil began. Billions of years ago, ancient sorcerers who called themselves the Morphing Masters hid a universe of power within two mystic power eggs. By casting the eggs into the sea the sorcerers believe that their ancient ancestors - would look down on the eggs and protect them from universal danger.” He said to them, and when the feed was done they turned back to him. “To ensure the safety of the chest only the touch of an innocent child, like Maria, can open the magical container.” He informed them, and they realized that was her plan of the day.

“Well, Zordon, what do you think we should do?” Gary questioned since he id not like this plan of hers at all.

“You must save the girl. Then return the Power eggs into the sea. If Jessie gets hold of them she will become so powerful that she can never be stopped.” Zordon instructed them what to do, and then explained why.

“Getting the kid to open the box was almost too easy. Jessie’s gonna be pleased.” The bird said as he was gazing at the eggs within the open container.

“Hey, bird, Jessie has sent us to get the eggs. Wow, look at them.” Munuatte shouted as he gazed at the black/gray ovals of might. The Rangers had gathered back in the Rad-Bug and were off to the cave.

“According to Zordon’s instructions we are near the cave of the Morphing Masters.” He said to the others as he drove through a desert like area.

“If Jessie touches one hair on Maria’s head I’ll….” Misty started to threaten, but was stopped by their leader.

“Hey, we’ll save her. She’ll be alright.” Gary informed pink as they were driving. As they began to close in on the cave the three grunts were still looking at their prize.

“Oh, boy they sure look good.” The glutton said as he licked his lips at the sight of that breakfast treat. “How about a taste?” He offered and was about to do so until his pal smacked in the back of the head.

“Hands off, we’re supposed to be protecting the eggs. Not eat them.” The muscular one commented.

“But what good are eggs if you can’t eat them.” The shorter one questioned while still drooling over the food before him. As a means to protect his eggs from the monster garbage disposal Ba-Choke picked up the box, and closed the lid before walking away.

“Why don’t you fly the car over there?” Aya questioned since she believed that this driving bit was taking too much of their time.

“Because approaching by ground makes us less visible and might allow us to surprise Jessie.” The driver said as he was now in a forest area of sorts. Back on the moon the woman in question was praising her success.

“Yes, this is perfect! They’ve got the eggs.” She cheered while watching them through the telescope. Back on earth the four were just outside of the cave.

“Hey, Ba-Choke, wait up. Hey, not so fast.” The bulkier one shouted as he tried to keep up with the two on point.

‘This was a waste of my energies.’ Persar thought since he was planning on swapping steel with the Red Ranger, but that plan seemed to be a bust.

“One more bend and we’ll be there.” Bill said pleasantly while continuing to drive at a steady pace.

“Everybody, keep your eyes open and be ready to morph.” Their leader said as they drove into the last bend. Once they were in a large open area they waited for the next step in their boss’ plan.

“I’ve got the eggs.” Jessie said in a pleased tone while chuckling in a neener-neener-neener way.

“Hey, chicken, hide the kiddie, and get over here. We’re gonna need some help.” Their field leader shouted out after hearing a car approaching and knew that it could only be those five.

“Ayie, ayie, ayie, ayie. The crazy chicken has disappeared with Maria. What do we do, Zordon?” The machine said as he and his boss was watching this situation devolop.

“Try to keep a close eye on Maria’s whereabouts and wellbeing while the Power Rangers deal wit the Power Eggs.” The blue faced man answered back.

“Right, Zordon. I just hope they can retrieve the eggs in time.” The helper said as he began to track the little girl with their devices.

“Look, it’s Jessie’s goons.” The Ranger leader shouted as they approached the three in question.

“But no Maria.” Misty said and could feel a knot develop in her gut out of fear for Maria.

“All right, It’s Morphin Time!” The red shouted out causing all to transform:

“Mastodon.” Brock shouted

“Pteradactyle.” Misty shouted

“Triceratops.” Bill shouted

“Saber-tooth tiger.” Aya shouted

“Tyrannosaurus!” Gary shouted. Bill parked their ride and they all got out and assumed a hero pose. It was then they saw a base in Ba-Choke and Munuatt’s hands with Persar guarding them. “Release Maria, and the Power Eggs!” Their field leader commanded.

“No!” His sword rival shouted back in anger.

“Let’s do it!” Red shouted to them. This caused them to try a move they only muttered about: create an energy attack with a pyramid of five people and their blade-blasters tips together. As soon as the move lauched and hit the two threw their container into the air.

“I hate those guys.” Jessie shouted after seeing that her prize splashed into the ocean. The two sides forgot about them, and decided to fight amongst themselves: guys on Persar and the girls on the bird creature.

‘Why are these girls mad at me? All I did was use the girl they were looking after as a way to let my mistress control a world they care so deeply.’ The bird thought after being kicked to the ground by the one in yellow.

“Stop! Wait! My Power Eggs! Don’t let them go; they’re getting away! Stop them!” Jessie shouted as she was peddling away on her flying big wheel bicycle. They followed her advice and left the battlefield early.

“Alpha, what is Maria’s condition?” The head questioned since he saw the latest thug on the battlefield with the Rangers for a short while before they all left.

“Chunky Chicken has her tied up at the old factory.” The machine said after his yell of alarm, and changed the image on the globe to the factory.

“Hey, let me down, feather face.” The girl shouted to the field holding her in the air.

“No way!” The bird called back out to her.

“I’ll bring you down. As soon as the Power Rangers bring me my Power Eggs.” Jessie, who was on a fire escape on the old factory, said to the little girl.

“Alpha, contact the Power Rangers, and inform them of Maria’s condition.” The founder ordered again.

“Ohh, that Jessie Repulsa makes my circuits fry.” The metallic one comment as he activated the communication equipment, that he worked on when they left.

“Hurry, Alpha, time is running short.” The former human said since he knew this woman was not known for her patience.

“Power Rangers, Jessie has Maria at the old factory. Hurry!” Their mechanical friend called out once he got a hold of them.

“We need dinozord power, now!” Their field leader shouted since he has had enough pussy-footing around for one day. “Alright!” Gary shouted before jumping up and into his machine. “Log on!” He shouted to the others once he was inside.

“Brock, here, and I’m ready to rock.” The Black Ranger said once he was ready.

“Bill, here, systems nominal.” The Blue Ranger said once he was inside.

“Aya, all systems go.” The Yellow Ranger called out.

“All right, let’s rescue Maria.” The Pink Ranger said once she was inside her machine.

“Alright, Rangers, let’s do it. Power up your Power Crystals.” He ordered to them after activating his machine with the two hand pads, and then activated his crystal.

“Right. Crystal Power.” The other four shouted as they formed their own Power Crystals.

“Engage crystals!” Gary ordered and inserted into the proper slot.

“Two, one - Power Up!” The other four shouted as they did what he did.

“Let’s show `em some Megazord power!” Their leader said as he pushed his crystal forward. This caused their five machines to form into the tank form. “Megazord battle mode, now!” Their leader shouted out as soon as the tank was formed.

“Megazord sequene has been initiated.” The mechanical voice of their machine said, and “Megazord activated.” Once their bot was on its own two feet.

“All right, Rangers, we got a little girl to save. Let’s do it!” Gary shouted to the others who had their machine walk over to the run down building where their foes were staying.

“Hey, Power Geeks, I’ll make you a deal. I’ll let her go as soon as you bring me the Power Eggs.” Jessie said to them as soon as the machine of good stood before her.

“Yeah, Power Eggs.” The chicken parroted after she spoke.

“Alright, Jessie, you lost the Power Eggs, so let the girl go - NOW!” The leader of the five shouted and held a firm grip on his controller in case she decided to pull something.

“Yeah. Let me go.” The little girl shouted to the flyer before her. Seeing as how this wasn’t going the way she planned the malefic mistress came up with a new plan.

“Cut it.” She ordered and the grunt cut a bit of the cable from the factory crane. “Cut it a little bit more, bird brain.” She said and he did as she said.

“Hey, bird brain, cut that rope again, and you’ve had it.” Aya said as she could feel her anger rising at seeing the sight before her.

“We’re scared now. Chunky Chicken show the Power Rangers what we think of their threat.” The sorceress stated causing the bird to cut it all the way through. The moment she began to fall the team angled their robot’s hand right under her, and was able to catch her. “I hate you guys.” She said since the villainess really wanted to see the mouthy girl go splat.

‘Yeah, she’s safe.’ Misty thought as she saw her new friend sitting in their giant hand.

“You may have saved the little girl, but all I have to do is make my chicken giant and he’ll destroy that stupid zord of yours. So, what do you think of that?” Their foe said and felt confident that this one might work on them.

“Give us your best shot, Jessie.” Their leader shouted since he will enjoy the challenge. She tossed her wand, the bird grew with his hedge clippers downgraded to a pair of sciccors,

“I’ve got the Rad-Bug on remote.” Bill said as he summoned the device. “Gary, place her near the car.” He requested and watched as his friend did as he asked.

“Maria, get in the car. It will take you to safety.” The Red Ranger said though the machine’s head.

“You don’t have to tell me twice.” She said back and got into the car which was beckoned away from the battlefield. The chicken scored a lucky kick and started to clip away at an open area of the battle field.

“Ranger’s pull it together. We’ve got to stop him.” Gary said as he had their suit storm over to the bird.

“Bye-bye.” The feather fiend clucked before slipping through the glowing crack, and then appeared to the other side of the robot, and scored another hit.

“It’s all over, beak breath.” The red one said after he had the Megazord grab the bird’s scissor hand, and punch him with the free fist. “We need the Power Sword, now!” He ordered and the sword came to them. “Let’s finish this fight.” He ordered to the rest of the team.

“Hyah!” They all shouted and their machine sliced the bird in half.

“Way to go, guys. We got him.” Gary congratulated the others on a job well done.

“Morphin.” The four others said as a way of saying that they enjoyed the praise. Back at the moon base Repulsa was speaking of this latest embarrassing defeat.

“It was a perfect plan until you nincompoops messed it all up. I should be ruling Earth now, but I’m not, and it’s all because of you!” Jessie shouted and ended with an accusing finger on her best fighter.

“It was all Nanba’s fault. If he didn’t build such a lame monster we would have won.” Her best warrior said back to her since he knew that bloated bird wouldn’t have enough tricks to handle the Megazord.

“And what do you have to say about yourselves.” Jessie questioned to the two on the right side of the balcony.

“Not much. How about you Ba-Choke.” The devourer said as he tried to hide his face with his hands.

“No, No, I don’t.” The taller one said with a nervous tone in his voice. Their boss walked to the front point of the rounded balcony, and said:

“Can’t you weasels do anything right. Get me an asprin. I got a headache again.” She shouted at them, and back on earth the five were back in their civilian outfits, and were just chilling at the juice bar. At the bar Wattson had the TV on with it broadcasting another victory by the Power Rangers.

“Hey, Bill, Misty.” Brock said to them after returning from the showers since he was done with working out for the day.

“Hey, Misty, can you help me with my Veggie Chilli.” The runner of the juice bar said and got a nod out of the young woman.

‘It’s a good thing that we have heroes like them.’ A young girl at the bar thought as she watched the broadcast, and liked how they were able to save a young girl.

“Anybody want Wattson’s Veggie Chillie?” The agile warrior questioned as she held the item in question over her head.

“I just made it fresh. It’s on the house.” The owner shouted causing a stampede to form, and they all gathered the bar half. Away from the bar, at a small table was Morrison who was enjoying a small banana split.

‘This is gonna be so good.’ He thought and was about to eat the first bite until a wave of Veggie Chillie splashed him from behind.

“Sorry Morey, it was supposed to be on the house; not on you.” The young hero said to the bully who was now staring at Chillie Ice Cream.
