They were helping Ken and Lamont go over the enemy list.&quot;</font></p> <p>Lamont said, &quot;Alright. When Blade and I first landed in Vandalia, <b>The Camera Monster</b> attacked us. Then later <b>Dark Parallax</b> attacked us, but was stopped by Hikari.&quot;</font></p> <p>Ken said, &quot;Dark Parallax is under the thumb of <b>Count Daniel Funela</b> and <b>Magical-El-Play</b>. He sent <b>Waterite</b> to try to destroy us, but it failed.&quot;</font></p> <p>Billy said, &quot;Dark Parallax then used his lackey <b>King Mondo</b>. Who used two of his creations, <b>Trash Man</b> and <b>A Robot</b> to stop you guys, but they failed. Then Daniel and Magical promoted him to Dark Parallax&#146;s equal and he went out on his own.&quot;</font></p> <p>Koushiro said, &quot;Dark Parallax then used <b>Takeru</b> against you by brainwashing him. The same way <b>Helena Cassadine</b>, and <b>Stavros Cassadine</b> is using <b>Lucky</b>, <b>Doctor Quest</b>, <b>Race Bannon</b>, <b>Doctor Zin</b>, and his assistant <b>Fred</b>.&quot;</font></p> <p>Justin said, &quot;Mondo tried to send another <b>Robot</b> to kill you but he failed. Then <b>Thames</b> appeared with <b>Razor</b>. When Thames appears you can&#146;t use your Ranger Powers.&quot;</font></p> <p>Lamont said, &quot;I&#146;m afraid that this is just the beginning.&quot;</font></p> <p>***</font></p> <p><b>Vandalia&#146;s General Hospital 10:59 AM</b></font></p> <p>Elizabeth said, &quot;I hope the Rangers can rescue Takeru and Lucky from the forces of evil.&quot;</font></p> <p>Daisuke asked, &quot;How did you get back Lucky the first time he was kidnapped?&quot;</font></p> <p>Elizabeth said, &quot;It&#146;s a long story, it all started a few weeks before Lamont and Blade arrived.&quot;</font></p> <p><b>Flash Back</b></font></p> <p>I said, &quot;I don&#146;t think I&#146;ll ever get over him. But the thing is, I don&#146;t think I want to.&quot;</font></p> <p>Jason asked, &quot;Why is that?&quot;</font></p> <p>I said, &quot;If I get over him, then I&#146;ll have to finally admit that he&#146;s dead, and not coming back. I know I should, but there is something inside of me, that won&#146;t let me believe that.&quot;</font></p> <p>Jason said, &quot;I read in a book somewhere that people truly in love can sense when someone has died. They feel it in their hearts.</font></p> <p>I just sat there thinking.</font></p> <p>***</font></p> <p>Lucky paced back and forth in his room that he was locked up in.</font></p> <p>Faison came in and said, &quot;Are you ready to move again?&quot;</font></p> <p>Lucky said, &quot;Like I really have a choice.&quot;</font></p> <p>Faison said, &quot;I&#146;m glad you are finally ready to admit defeat.&quot;</font></p> <p>Lucky said, &quot;That is something that I will never do.&quot;</font></p> <p>Just then both Helena and Moreno came in.</font></p> <p>Helena said, &quot;You&#146;ll be amazed at what you will do.&quot;</font></p> <p>***</font></p> <p>Jason and I are ridding on the back of Jason&#146;s motorcycle. Unknown to us Moreno is watching.</font></p> <p>Moreno said, &quot;Soon you will pay for shooting me, and Sorrel will pay for betraying me.</font></p> <p>The two of us rode on down the street when a fallen tree stopped us.</font></p> <p>Jason said, &quot;Now we&#146;ve got to take the long way around.&quot;</font></p> <p>I said, &quot;Is it just me or has it got deadly quiet?&quot;</font></p> <p>Moreno stepped out of the shadows and said, &quot;You are right my dear.&quot;</font></p> <p>I grabbed Jason&#146;s arm as he said, &quot;Moreno. But Sorrel finished you off.&quot;</font></p> <p>Moreno said, &quot;Oh he tried, but I had a little bit of help.&quot;</font></p> <p>I said, &quot;Who would help a creep like you?&quot;</font></p> <p>A familiar voice said, &quot;That would be me.&quot;</font></p> <p>I said, &quot;No, it can&#146;t be.&quot;</font></p> <p>Out of the shadows stepped Helena.</font></p> <p>Jason said, &quot;What do you want?&quot;</font></p> <p>Helena said, &quot;I&#146;m just going to reunite Young Miss Webber with an old friend.&quot;</font></p> <p>Just then the sky was filled with a strange fog. Moreno and Helena put on gas masks as Jason and I collapsed.</font></p> <p>***</font></p> <p>We awoke a few hours later, in a room similar to the one Lucky is in. But what they didn&#146;t know was that Lucky was right next door in a sound proof room.</font></p> <p>I said, &quot;Man I wish Lucky was here.&quot;</font></p> <p>***</font></p> <p>Lucky paced back and forth in his new room and said, &quot;I sure wish Liz was here.&quot;</font></p> <p>***</font></p> <p>We both walked to the wall and sat against it. Unknown to us, we were back to back with each other.</font></p> <p>***</font></p> <p>I said, &quot;If none of this had ever happened. Right now we&#146;d&#133;&quot;</font></p> <p>***</font></p> <p>Lucky said, &quot;&#133;be at the docks and&#133;&quot;</font></p> <p>***</font></p> <p>I said, &quot;&#133;Lucky would hold me in his arms while&#133;&quot;</font></p> <p>***</font></p> <p>Lucky said, &quot;&#133;the waves would be crashing on the shore. Then Elizabeth would talk about how she would love to paint it, and&#133; &quot;</font></p> <p>***</font></p> <p>I said, &quot;&#133;he would run off and buy, and bring me the paint and supplies so I could do it.&quot;</font></p> <p>***</font></p> <p>Lucky said, &quot;Elizabeth&#133;&quot;</font></p> <p>***</font></p> <p>I said, &quot;Lucky&#133;&quot;</font></p> <p>***</font></p> <p>Both of us said, &quot;&#133;I need you.&quot;</font></p> <p>***</font></p> <p>Jason said, &quot;So how about we break out of here?&quot;</font></p> <p>I said, &quot;I thought you&#146;d never ask.&quot;</font></p> <p>***</font></p> <p>Moreno said, &quot;Now to take care of Sorrel.&quot;</font></p> <p>Helena said, &quot;The three of us will be right back.&quot;</font></p> <p>Faison said, &quot;Try not to fail.&quot;</font></p> <p>A dumb guard said, &quot;Um, yes sirs, um maams, uh sir maams.&quot;</font></p> <p>Faison said, &quot;Remind me to hire more intelligent men.&quot;</font></p> <p>***</font></p> <p>Jason took some plastic explosives out of his jacket and blew the wall off to the out side. He also blew Lucky&#146;s outside wall up too, but he had been drugged so he slept right through it.</font></p> <p>Jason said, &quot;Let&#146;s go.&quot;</font></p> <p>I followed Jason, but at the wall stopped and said, &quot;I have a strange feeling.&quot;</font></p> <p>Jason said, &quot;Worry about it later.&quot;</font></p> <p>I said, &quot;I guess your right.&quot;</font></p> <p>We ran off.</font></p> <p>***</font></p> <p>A few hours later Lucky woke up saw the hole and escaped.</font></p> <p>***</font></p> <p>A few hours later the three of them drug Sorrel back to throw him in a room when they saw their other three captives escaped.</font></p> <p>The guard said, &quot;There was an explosion, but that&#146;s all.&quot;</font></p> <p>Helena shot the guard dead.</font></p> <p>The four of them said, &quot;Why can&#146;t evil people ever win?&quot;</font></p> <p>***</font></p> <p>I said, &quot;He&#146;s a friend of mine, and that&#146;s all.&quot;</font></p> <p>Nikolas said, &quot;He wants more then that.&quot;</font></p> <p>Lucky walked up to my studio when he heard me and his brother Nikolas fighting.</font></p> <p>I said, &quot;Is that all that you believe. That we&#146;re sleeping together. Well then I guess your right.&quot;</font></p> <p>Lucky turned around and collapsed on the window and said, &quot;Elizabeth&#133;&quot; A tear fell from his cheek, and he felt like his heart was breaking.&quot;</font></p> <p>Nikolas said, &quot;I knew it,&quot; and he left.</font></p> <p>Jason said, &quot;Why did you tell him that lie?&quot;</font></p> <p>Lucky perked up.</font></p> <p>I said, &quot;He didn&#146;t believe me when I told him the truth. Some day he&#146;ll understand the truth.&quot;</font></p> <p>Just then the feeling came over me again and I ran to the window looked out and said, &quot;Lucky?&#146;</font></p> <p>Lucky looked up and said, &quot;In the flesh.&quot;</font></p> <p>He stood up and they stared out each other for a fraction of a second, before I leaned forward and embraced him. &quot;Oh I missed you so much. But wait you were dead.&quot;</font></p> <p>Lucky explained about the kidnapping and the room he was in. Then recently an explosion blew the wall off and he escaped.</font></p> <p>I said, &quot;That was like the room we were in. You must have been next door. I knew I felt something.&quot;</font></p> <p>Lucky and I entered the building and Jason gave Lucky a hug and said, &quot;I&#146;ll leave the two of you alone for a while.&quot;</font></p> <p>Lucky said, &quot;Thanks man.&quot;</font></p> <p>We spent the time looking at the sunrise when Lucky said, &quot;You think we should tell Nik the truth?&quot;</font></p> <p>I said, &quot;Nah, he&#146;s a smart kid, but a little nieve in the ways of the world.&quot;</font></p> <p>Lucky said, &quot;Maybe some day in the future, a girl will blackmail Emily and then help us stop a drug dealer, who will kidnapped Emily. Emily will fall for the kidnapper, and Nik for the Black mailer.&quot;</font></p> <p>We both had a good laugh at the thought of it.</font></p> <p><b>End Flashback</b></font></p> <p>Elizabeth said, &quot;And that is what happened.&quot;</font></p> <p>***</font></p> <p><b>Helke Park ~ 11:15 AM</b></font></p> <p>Shawn was walking towards the swings when Thames appeared.</font></p> <p>Thames said, &quot;Well if it isn&#146;t the only Ranger yet to activate hi Warrior Spirit. Arise, Tooth Paste!&quot; He threw a CD-ROM in the air and it turned into a tooth paste monster.&quot;</font></p> <p>***</font></p> <p><b>The Power Chamber ~ 12:30 PM</b></font></p> <p>Ken said, &quot;Lamont, any experiences that you can tell us with your past with Daniel could really help.&quot;</font></p> <p>Lamont said, &quot;Well it all started on my first day of School.&quot;</font></p> <p><b>Flashback</b></font></p> <p><b>Tuesday, August 27, 1985 ~ Vandalia, Ohio</b></font></p> <p>Eight years before the Power Rangers first appeared in Angel Grove, there was a small city in the state of Ohio that possessed a secret. At Helke Elementary School, the new school year was coming along nicely. The new Kindergarten class at Helke was becoming friends. They are the kids that will become known as the Class of &quot;98&quot;. They will face many test and trials in the future.</font></p> <p>But right now, none of that mattered, at least not for me. I was late. I missed the bus, my first day of school and I was feeling very hyper.</font></p> <p>&quot;Come on, come on dad. Ya got to drive me to school.&quot; I said.</font></p> <p>He said, &quot;You should have been on time.&quot;</font></p> <p>I said, &quot;I would have been if you didn&#146;t stop me every five minutes.&quot;</font></p> <p>He said, &quot;You&#146;re right, I&#146;m sorry.&quot;</font></p> <p>I said, &quot;It&#146;s O.K. Let&#146;s go.&quot; We both got in the car.</font></p> <p>***</font></p> <p>Meanwhile, in a house, next to the school, a lady, who practiced witchcraft, was up to no good.</font></p> <p>She created a blue baseball cap with a red L on the front. She called the hat the L-hat. Her name was <b>Magical-E-L-Play.</b></font></p> <p>The L-hat reflected and magnified what was in a person&#146;s heart, soul, and mind. Whether it was good or evil. Magical planed to use the L-hat to open a wormhole to Cologne to free Count Daniel Funela.</font></p> <p>&quot;Finally, with the power of this hat, I can free the count.&quot; Magical said. &quot;Then the world will tremble.&quot;</font></p> <p>Not just anybody could use the hat. They had to posses a special quality. If that quality was corrupted, then the hat might be used for evil.</font></p> <p>However she was so into the creation of the hat. That she did not notice that there was a construction crew in front of her house. The activity shook the house and made the hat fly out the window, and behind a bush.</font></p> <p>***</font></p> <p>My dad dropped me off at the corner because of the construction, because he couldn&#146;t get down the street.</font></p> <p>I ran down the road, but at that time I was only five years old and was still kind of clumsy. I kind of fell into one of the holes created by the construction. But fearing that I would be late I quickly climbed out of the hole and broke down some limbs allowing me to break through a bush.</font></p> <p>As I was going through the bush I nearly tripped over a hat. I picked it up and stuffed it in my backpack, and then I hurried on to school.</font></p> <p>Later that day at Recess I was near the twisty slide, and I noticed that no one was looking so I quickly tried on the hat. As soon as I did, a bright light streamed from the L on the hat. Everything in front of me went hazy and then darkness.</font></p> <p>On of the kids glance in my direction, and looked away to see a rabbit. When he turned back around I had vanished into thin air. &quot;Wasn&#146;t there a kid there a second ago,&quot; he said.</font></p> <p>***</font></p> <p>Slowly my vision returned, and I noticed that my surroundings had changed. I was know in what looked to me like the inside of an old, spooky castle.</font></p> <p>Being a curious five-year-old, I explored my surroundings with an interested view about what I saw. I noticed a giant vat with something in it. I couldn&#146;t see what was inside, but I noticed a digital device on the side of it. Being the technological wizard that I was, I pressed several of the buttons on the device.</font></p> <p>It was about this time I noticed a small staircase going up to a platform above the vat, I thought this would be a good opportunity to see what was inside so I climbed the stairs.</font></p> <p>Unknown to me, one of the buttons I pressed activated the Count&#146;s hibernation chamber, and allowed him to awaken. He said, &quot;Finally after all this time, I am awake.&quot; He climbed out of the chamber and said, &quot;I sense that someone with great power is here. I&#146;ll teach him to trespass in my palace.&quot;</font></p> <p>I had climbed the staircase and looked over the railing to see what was in that giant vat. It looked like some kind of strange, bubbling liquid. &quot;I&#146;d hate to have to take a bath in that,&quot; I said. Just then a strange feeling overcame me. &quot;I feel something evil?&quot; I said.</font></p> <p>A voice said, &quot;That&#146;s because there is.&quot;</font></p> <p>I looked over my shoulder and slowly turned around. There he was. He looked like something out of a storybook. &quot;Are you like nobility or something?&quot; I asked.</font></p> <p>He said, &quot;I am Count Daniel Funela. The ruler of this world.&quot;</font></p> <p>&quot;Nice to meet you,&quot; I said.</font></p> <p>&quot;Have you come to pay me your respects?&quot; He asked.</font></p> <p>I said, &quot;I don&#146;t know, I just put this hat on, and I appeared here.&quot;</font></p> <p>He looked at the hat and said, &quot;The L-hat! It has the power to get me back to Earth.&quot;</font></p> <p>I said, &quot;Back to Earth? You mean, this isn&#146;t Earth?&quot;</font></p> <p>He said, &quot;No this is the Planet Cologne.&quot;</font></p> <p>&quot;Cologne?&quot; I said, &quot;It sounds like something you buy at the store.&quot;</font></p> <p>Daniel said, &quot;Well it was nice meeting you kid, but now I&#146;m afraid I must take that hat. Solar Blast!&quot;</font></p> <p>I looked up and through one of the windows I could see the sun. A huge concentration of energy was coming from it and right towards me. &quot;No!&quot; I screamed.</font></p> <p>&quot;Goodbye kid,&quot; Daniel said with an evil laugh.</font></p> <p>The Solar Blast was getting closer when all of a sudden the L-hat started to glow. I closed my eyes and the solar blast hit me. But when I opened my eyes again, what I saw was amazing.</font></p> <p>The blast had stopped a few inched from my face, and was being scatter4ed everywhere. From what I figured, the hat created a force field around me.</font></p> <p>&quot;Imposible!&quot; The Count said.</font></p> <p>I said, &quot;If you wanted this hat, all you had to do is ask.</font></p> <p>Daniel said, &quot;You&#146;re a nice kid.&quot; He walked over to me, &quot;Now hand over the hat.</font></p> <p>I started to walk towards the count, but once again the hat started to glow. It caused on of the planks on the platform to rise up a bit. I didn&#146;t notice it, and tripped over it.</font></p> <p>Daniel had been rushing towards me, and didn&#146;t have time to stop, so he tripped over me.</font></p> <p>He fell on top of the railing that was over the vat. It was about a thousand years old and hadn&#146;t been kept up in a few hundred years so the railing was weak and gave way. Causing Daniel to fall into the vat, which just happened to be filled with acid.</font></p> <p>&quot;No!&quot; He screamed as the acid disfigured his face.</font></p> <p>I felt sick as I looked on.</font></p> <p>Daniel started to climb out of the vat, when we heard a beeping sound. It seemed that not only did I activate the Count&#146;s hibernation chamber, but also the self-destruct mechanism.</font></p> <p>The fist thing to be destroyed was the acid vat that Daniel was in. Killing him.</font></p> <p>The blast threw me in the air, and I thought I was a goner until the hat once again started to glow. Before my eyes a wormhole opened up and I went through.</font></p> <p>It was filled with a lot of bight and flashing lights. I was in it what seemed like an eternity, but then I saw a very bright light.</font></p> <p>***</font></p> <p>I blinked my eyes and noticed that I was back by the slide. I quickly pulled off the hat and hid it in my shirt. Recess was over and I went inside.</font></p> <p>&quot;Wow, that was some daydream I just had. It almost seemed real.&quot; I said.</font></p> <p>***</font></p> <p>Meanwhile, the witch watched what happened and said, &quot;How could that kid do that stuff? I mean, a mere human doesn&#146;t have that kind of power unless . . . of course! He has to be! There is no other solution! I must capture that kid, and drain his energy.&quot;<br> ***</font></p> <p>I went inside and got on the little seesaw with another little boy. &quot;Hi who are you?&quot; I asked.</font></p> <p>The boy replied, &quot;My name is <b>David Erbaugh.</b></font></p> <p>I reached out my hand and shook his, and said, &quot;My name is <b>Lamont Stewart.</b></font></p> <p><b>END FLASHBACK</b></font></p> <p>Lamont said, &quot;And that is what happened?</font></p> <p>Just then Alpha VII said, &quot;Shawn needs help.&quot;</font></p> <p>Lamont said, &quot;Contact the other Rangers.&quot;</font></p> <p>***</font></p> <p>Shawn was holding Tooth Paste off when the other Rangers appeared.&quot;</font></p> <p>Shawn said, &quot;Am I glad to see you.&quot;</font></p> <p>Miguel said, &quot;Spirit of Courage, Activate!&quot;</font></p> <p>Hikari said, &quot;Spirit of Light, Activate!&quot;</font></p> <p>Stephanie said, &quot;Spirit of Sincerity, Activate!&quot;</font></p> <p>Lucy said, &quot;Spirit of Love, Activate!&quot;</font></p> <p>The Rangers activated their warrior spirits and started to fight Tooth Paste.</font></p> <p>***</font></p> <p>Meanwhile Lamont was ridding his bike around Vandalia, when he noticed Jesse fixing his motorcycle.</font></p> <p>He walked up, but saw a few thousand dollars fall out of his pocket.&quot;</font></p> <p>Lamont thought, where did he get all that money. Could it be the missing bank money?</font></p> <p>***</font></p> <p>Back on the battle field, the battle wasn&#146;t getting good results. Tooth Paste had four of the Rangers on the rope. In fact a rope tied them up and it was getting tighter.</font></p> <p>Then Shawn got mad. &quot;That&#146;s it. You&#146;ve hurt my friends for the last time. Spirit of Friendship, Activate!&quot; The symbol of Friendship appeared on his heart. Light came out of the symbol and engulfed Shawn. When the light vanished he was wearing is armor.</font></p> <p>Shawn said, &quot;Friendship Fire, Fry!&quot;</font></p> <p>Tooth Paste was surrounded by fire and was defeated.&quot;</font></p> <p>Thames said, &quot;I&#146;ll be back, again.&quot; Then he vanished.&quot;</font></p> <p>Shawn said, &quot;I finally activated my spirit.&quot;</font></p> <p>***</font></p> <p>Lamont said, &quot;Hi Jesse.&quot;</font></p> <p>Jesse said, &quot;Don&#146;t call me that. It is a stupid nickname call me Jammal.&quot;</font></p> <p>Lamont said, &quot;OK.&quot; He rode away and thought, &quot;Is he a friend of a foe?&quot;</font></p> <p>Jammal was holding his hand over his heart and said, &quot;Heart Burn Again.&quot; He went to get some heart burn medicine. While on his heart the Symbol of Reliability faintly glowed.</font></p> <p>***</font></p> <p>Meanwhile, Johnny Quest, Dr. Quest&#146;s son; Jessie Bannon, Race&#146;s daughter, and Hadji got off of a plane in Vandalia.</font></p> <p>Hadji said, &quot;According to our source your parents, and Doctor Zin are under the control of an evil lady named Helena Cassadine.</font></p> <p><b>What is Helena&#146;s Master Plan?
