Disclaimer!!! : The Power Rangers(in any form) and their secret identities are the sole property of Saban. I only own the six teens who presently possess the power and their techno-leader, I also own Jarak and the dark family not to mention all of his loyal subjects,Omechs,Monsters ect. Now before you read this there are a few things you should know, This is part three of an ongoing series if you haven't read the first two parts you'll be a little confused. Next these rangers are a little more gritty than their predecessors.

Now Let's BOOOGYY,

For whom the power tolls
By Shaun M

(Angel Bluffs 1986)

"Robby, what are you doing out here by your self? everyone's been looking for you." Serina Marcus asked with the warm smile Robert had always associated with his mother. "Nuthin' just watchin' the sun go to bed." Robert replied then asked "Mommy when are we gonna go home? I miss my friends and my toys." Serina only smiled and picked up the six year old child. "In a few days honey, Now it's time for dinner Me-maw fixed your favorite." Serina said as they came inside.

"Oh for heavens sake where was he?" Jacqulin Marcus asked with a worried expression. "I was watchin' the sun go to bed Me-maw." Robert replied before his mother could answer. "Well didja' tell it goodnight for me Robby?" Carl Marcus asked the six year old with the warmest of smiles. "No Gramps, I'm sorry." Robert replied. "That's alright Robby."

Carl said,

Then the scene shifted to a hospital room Robert walked in, he'd always disliked hospitals every since he was seven and his grand mother died now he was thirteen and his grand father was here. Robert looked at the bed and where his grandfather should've been Sammantha lay burned cut and with numerous casts which would suggest broken bones.

"Sammantha!, What happened…Where's my grandfather?" Robert cried out. "It's your fault I'm here Robert, it's because of you that I became a ranger and it's your fault i'll die. Thank you fearless leader." Sammanthas final words were daggers of ice. Robert tried to reach out and channel some of the Green Power into her so she would heal faster but before he made contact he was in Jumbari the small city where he learned {Directed Will}.

He knew this scene it was four days before his sixteenth birthday, and only one day from the presentation ceremony where he would receive the third level gold sash. He was in the hospitol again, but something was different. The patients he passed in the hall were all his fellow rangers they were all badly injured with either burns deep cuts and or Full body casts they all looked at Robert with contempt and hate.

When he walked into the hospitol room tears streamed down his face, his mother lay there with an I.V. in her left arm and an oxygen tent set up around her. Her skeletal structure was clearly evident and her eyes were closed tight. when she opened them Robert saw the once radient violet eyes glazed and unfocused then she started to talk "Robby, I want you to do something for me." she said her voice barely audible over the beeps and hums of the room.

"Anything you want mom." Robert said trying to hold back the tears with his willpower. "When you're done traveling go to Angel Grove and stay in your grandparents house." Serina said "And Robby honey please don't get Sammantha killed." With that Robert shot awake, The nightmares had started every since he started staying in this house. Robert looked at the clock on his nightstand it read 3:52 am. "Great, Well once I'm up I'm not going back to sleep so I'd better get something to eat." Robert said outloud to himself.

"So that Green pest is having doubts about his leadership skils eh?" Jarak mused. "Well he'll have a lot more to worry about once the spell activates."

Jarak laughed to himself his hideous face twisting into a mask of pure evil delight and added "Good bye Robert".

(ANGEL GOVE PARK)

"Darius, wait up." Peter called to his friend. "Oh, so sorry peter." Darius said "No problem man. What's the rush?" Peter inquired "I'm going to the Surf Spot to meet my sister, brother-in-law and niece they just flew in from London." Darius replied smiling to his friend. "Oh, is that today? I thought they were comming tomorrow." Peter was about to add something about their arms being tired from the flight when he noticed a sqaud of Omechs and added "Umm Darius looks like you'll be a little late." The Omech in the lead said "Get the blue one and destroy the yellow one." The Omech leader grunted. And with that the fight was on.

Robert was walking to the Lake with Mike and Brittany when he suddenly began to glow a violent shade of red. Energy crackled off of him and destroyed a nearby tree. "AAARRRGGHHHH." Robert cried out as the pain coursed through him. And as quickly as it had started it stopped. Robert lay on the ground panting with sweat pouring off of him. "Man what was that?" Mike asked with a worried look on his face. "I don't know but maybe we should get him to the command base." Brittany suggested with that Mike and Brittany pulled out their power coins made sure the coast was clear then concentrated and teleported holding on to Robert.

The three streaks of light swept past the battle site scaring the Omechs causing them to retreat. "Well that was different," Darius said with a puzzeled look on his face Peter agreed and said "Let's get to the Surf Spot." Darius nodded his agreement and they headed off. Brittany, Robert and Mike all landed at the Command base and as Mike placed Robert on the med table Brittany said "S.I.C.S.01 we need you to run a scan on Robert something wierd happened in the park." Without delay S.I.C.S.01 started the scan."Activating scan now." S.I.C.S.01 reported "This readout says that there is a spell on him but I can't tell you what it's supposed to do." Brittany said staring at the computer readout.

"Ungh. wha.. what happened?" Robert inquired grogily. "All reports indicate that you were attacked by one of Jaraks spells, The effect is still unknown. How do you feel Robert?" S.I.C.S.01 asked. "Yea man that blast looked painful." Mike added "Apart from a really bad headache I feel fine but something feels a little i'm not sure how to describe it but something feels off." Robert said. "Has Jarak launched an attack since we got here?" Brittany asked the computer. "Yes Darius and Peter were attacked by Omechs in the park. The Omechs retreated when you teleported over." S.I.C.S.01 answered.

"Have you made any progress in building the communicators yet?" Brittany asked the computer "Yes there are now five communicators assembled, Robert due to the difference in your powers it will take longer to perfect yours." S.I.C.S.01 reported "Okay so we'll take the rest of them to the others." Mike said "Alright guys let's not bother S.I.C.S.01 any more. Initiate teleportation sequence." Robert said. Mike and Brittany both turned into a ball of colored light and streaked out of the command base.

Then S.I.C.S.01 added "Robert I believe it is important for you to know, While the scan was in effect I detected a portion of Jaraks D.N.A. in your cellular structure, this is why the spell he placed on you is a mystery to us, his D.N.A. is masking it." Robert couldn't think of anything to say, after all the time of wondering who his father was it turned out that it was in fact Jarak.

Robert said nothing and teleported out of the Command Base with a grim distant look on his face.

"The spell has been activated, soon the Green ranger will be too dangerous to be useful in battle." Jaraks eyes glowed a menacing red as he said this. "Father, let me go down and destroy that green pest for you." K'ellai asked twisting her pretty face into a malicious grin. "You may go, but be careful." Jarak warned his only daughter.

(ANGEL BLUFFS now)

"Robert is something wrong?" Sammantha asked. "No, nothing let's get back to the others." Robert replied distantly "Hey Robert haven't seen you in a while." Richard said handing a small child a drink. "Yea, well it's been a rough week." Robert said. At that moment Sammantha noticed that Roberts green Ranger glove was materializing on his hand and Robert didn't notice.

"Robert, Look at your hand." Sammantha whispered.

Robert did as he was told and saw what she had pointed out, as he was about to excuse himself when K'ellai and a squad of Omechs materialized. "Everyone run! You to Richard." Robert commanded easily slipping into the role of leader. "I'll get out of here when the kids are safe." Richard said landing a solid mule kick on an Omech. As soon as Richard was gone Robert gave the command. "IT'S MORPHIN' TIME!"

"POWER RANGERS!" they all said in unison. "Alright guys Red and I will take on the leader, you take the Omechs." Green Ranger commanded as the red ranger summoned her power saber. The red ranger and green ranger attacked K'ellai, who in turn fired a blast that scorched the red ranger who emmitted a near deafening scream as the blast tore through her ranger armor and she slumped to the ground unconscious. Roberts mind quickly brought up the image of her lying in the hospitol bed from his dream and accusing him of sending her to her death. "SAMMANTHA!!, You're gonna pay for this you monster." Robert screamed as he pulled out the Dragon Dagger and gave the weapon morph command, "Dragon dagger to Katana."

Before the weapon could completley change its appearance Robert threw himself at K'ellai and put a deep slice in her right arm as a thick green fluid came out of the wound K'ellai screeched. And as her eyes flared in anger and pain she vanished with her Omechs. Robert Ran over to Sammantha and placed his hand on her chest channeling his Dragon armor and a large amount of his green power into her. After the transfusion of power was complete S.I.C.S.01 teleported the rangers to the Command Base. In transit Roberts teleportation orb started to fluctuate and throw off energy.

 As they rematerialised Roberts Suit threw of an astounding amount of power and Robert fell unconscious with what appeared to be smoke rising from his clothing. Sammantha slowly sat up groaning."Sammantha!, Are you alright." Brittany said with a worried expression on her face. "Yea I'm fine… Well I will be anyway. What about Robert?" Sammantha said moving unsteadily towards the unconscious teen on the floor.

"Robert will be fine as soon as he wakes up. But there is a more important matter at hand, the spell that Jarak placed on Robert is causing his powers to become eratic. he will not be able to serve as a permanent member of the Power Team until his powers are stabilized." S.I.C.S.01 informed the rangers. "And how will I do that exactly?" Robert asked, slowly trying to stand rubbing his temple.

"Oh, and by the way thanks for catching me before I hit the ground." he added. "You will have to embark on a quest to Pheados, Aquitar and Triforia. in order to acquire and assemble the device which will restabilize your powers you must contact me each time you land for your instructions." S.I.C.S.01 told Robert. "When do I leave." Robert said ignoring the incredible pain in his head. "You will leave as soon as you chose a temporary replacement leader, which will hold the power of the White Roc." S.I.C.S.01 said then added "You must also chose someone to control the dragonzord should it be needed in battle."

"Well I'll leave control of my zord to Sammy." Robert started as he smiled at Sammantha then he got a funny look on his face and asked "When did we get a white power coin?" He finished. "The white ranger powers were created when the six of you combined your powers to create the Command Base, and as for the coin it was created by Zordon and Alpha 5 when the original Green Ranger lost his powers."S.I.C.S.01 informed Robert "Very well Robert, Your communicator has been finished and preprogramed with the coordinates of the planets you will need to teleport to, now go and may your skills serve you well and the power protect you. You will be able to morph safley for a short amount of time if you need to."

as S.I.C.S.01 finished Robert said "Well judging by the bravery and skill he showed when mega-witch showed up I choose Richard to act as temporary leader and to wield the white ranger power." As Robert finished he activated the teleportation sequence. Before he vanished he said "Rangers be careful, and Sammantha don't scratch my zord."

As Roberts teleportation beam vanished a white beam appeared in the Command Base. As he materialised Richard looked around the Command Base and fainted. When He came to S.I.C.S.01 told him "Richard you have been chosen as temporary leader of the power rangers and to weild the power of the White Ranger and to control the mighty Roc Zord. Do you accept or decline?" "Well, umm…I accept I guess." As Richard finished speaking the Alarm sounded. "Rangers Jarak has sent another monster to earth. "Well Rangers IT'S MORPHIN' TIME!" Sammantha gave the command.

"POWER RANGERS!" They all shouted in unison as they engaged Jaraks latest monster. "Alright rangers let's make Jarak pay for what he did to Robert." Richard said still unable to beleive that he was a power ranger. Before it could sink in he took a full power blow to the chest from the monster. "Not a good way to start." Richard chided himself. "Hey Sammantha did you notice that you still have the dragon armor?" "Mike asked. Yea it must be because I have control of the dragonzord right now." Sammantha said as she dodged the blast that was streaking towards her.

"Nooo, I can't beleive it!" Jarak screamed with outrage. "What is it?" Velescia asked. "My plan, it was fool-proof their leader is gone and they aren't at full strength. So I thought That wretched computer created a new ranger." Jarak yelled evil power flying from his eyes. "And now they're going to destroy my monster." Jarak stormed off refusing to enlarge the badly losing monster.

"S.I.C.S.01, I've made it to the first planet, what are my instructions?" Robert inquired.
