Aaron Bielert, the President and CEO of VBCnet has decided to cancel the entire Kids-VBC lineup, which includes all episodes of our Power Rangers series' (PRJF, PRND, PRKW, PRSG, and PRTNG) due to low ratings.
Now, before anyone gets into a fighting mood, I agreed with Aaron, and decided that this was a good time to leave VBC. I have sent messages of good luck to Aaron, and all showrunners of VBC.
The ratings (the number of views on the discussion boards) for PRTNG are low this season compared to the high numbers from PRND three years ago.
PRTNG and future Super Sentai series adaptations will continue on the blog (The NRIO Network), and the four discussion boards (Rangerboard, RangerCrew, Henshin Justice Unlimited, and RangerVision) into the forseeable future.
Again, I send thanks and good luck to everyone at VBCnet.

PACO GAMEZ:
You have to realize, Colin...you have to throw away something to gain something.
[The four other rangers are defeated, and forced out of morph, and are roughed up...badly. DeAndre tries to reach for his cutlass, and gets his hand and head stepped on. The Red Ranger is the last to go down. The drones take hold of the other galleon crew.]
Let’s go!
[Everyone except for Colin teleports up to the Free Joker, looming over the battlefield. Before he teleports up, Paco taunts Colin.]
Like I keep saying, Colin...you have to throw away something to gain something.
[As everyone leaves on the Free Joker (which is taking off), the Red Ranger de-morphs, and collapses to his hands and knees in exhaustion, and let’s out a primal-like scream of anger and frustration.]
INT.-CITY-GALLEON-MAIN ROOM-DAY
[A couple hours later, Colin is at the computer terminal, trying to pinpoint the location of the others’ morpher signals. Navix is flying around in a panic.]
NAVIX:
What are you gonna do?
COLIN SCOTT:
(frustrated)
Not now, Navix!
[Colin can’t pinpoint the signals.]
Dang it! I can’t pinpoint their signals!
[Colin remembers what Paco said, then sees the five “sixth” keys on the table, and tosses them aside in frustration. His morpher then beeps...Colin answers.]
You let my friends go...right now, Paco!
INT.-OUTER SPACE-FREE JOKER-BRIDGE-DAY
[Paco talks to Colin. Primus is behind him wearing a sash of the others’ morphers. On the floor, are the other crewmen, bound by chains.]
PACO GAMEZ:
I will free your crewmates...IF you hand over your ship, the rest of the Power Keys, and Navix...or else, I will hand over your friends to my Zangyu friends for the bounty on their heads.
[The four look hopeless as Paco hangs up.]
INT.-CITY-GALLEON-MAIN ROOM-DAY

INT.-OUTER SPACE-FREE JOKER-BRIDGE-DAY
[Paco taunts the four, who are discussing the ransom.]

Colin will never give up those things...and neither will we. He’ll come for us.
KERI SCHMIDT:

Listen...Paco...why not let me work for you.
PACO GAMEZ:
Sorry...I work for myself. Primus...take them down into the brig.
INT.-OUTER SPACE-FREE JOKER-BRIG-DAY
[Primus eats a banana as Brock comes up with a plan...act like the monkey to gain her sympathy.]
KERI SCHMIDT:
Think it’ll work?
BROCK CRANSTON:
Your plan didn’t work.
[Brock tries to imitate Primus, but the monkey just throws the peel at Brock, who slips on the discarded banana.]
DeANDRE TAYLOR:
Guys...look! We can try to get out through the ship’s ventilation system!
[The four try to get through the vents while still bound. The four break through into a cargo hold, only to be met by Paco and Primus...and at blaster point.]
PACO GAMEZ:
Busted!
[The four look disappointed.]
INT.-CITY-GALLEON-MAIN ROOM-DAY
[Colin opens the treasure chest of Power Keys, and thinks. He remembers how he met the others. He then remembers when his father and his friends were recruited to become rangers...he then comes up with a plan.]
INT.-OUTER SPACE-FREE JOKER-BRIG-DAY
[Paco taunts his four captives.]
PACO GAMEZ:
I got to hand it to you guys for being so persistent...and trying to escape.
[Soon, Paco’s phone rings.]
voice of COLIN SCOTT:
I will meet you in the quarry...bring my crew, and I’ll give you what you want.
[The four captive crewmen look very doubtful. Paco folds up his phone.]
PACO GAMEZ:
It sounds like your friend has given up.
[Paco and Primus leave the room. The four talk to themselves.]
NIKKI BUCHANAN:
Maybe Colin has given up on us.
DeANDRE TAYLOR:
Colin wouldn’t...He’s got a plan. We just got to be ready.
EXT.-QUARRY-DAY
[The airspace is filled by the galleon and the Free Joker. Below, Colin faces Paco, Primus, and the four captured crewmen. Colin is holding the key chest.]
KERI SCHMIDT:
Colin! Don’t do it!
[Primus tries to put a stop to the four.]
PACO GAMEZ:
Now...show me what’s in the box first.
[Colin opens the chest to show Paco the keys. Hidden inside the chest is Colin’s Hero Morpher.]
Now...set the box down, and step back.
[Colin shuts the chest.]
I’m not giving you these.
[Paco is in shock.]
And...I’m taking back my crew too!
[Colin tosses the chest of keys toward the other crewmen. It opens, revealing the hidden morpher. DeAndre kicks Brock in the butt so that he can open his mouth. He gets the morpher in the mouth, as DeAndre, who has the Green Kendo Ranger key in his mouth is inserted into the morpher. When Primus sees what is going on, Nikki bites her hand while Colin battles Paco with his cutlass.]
BROCK CRANSTON:
(talking with his mouth full)
It’s Morphin’ Time!
[Brock transforms into the Green Kendo Ranger, and uses his Kendo Razor to free the others, and slice at Primus. Soon, the overgrown monkey is thrown back to Paco as the others have now regained their morphers.]
DeANDRE TAYLOR:
We’d knew you would come!
COLIN SCOTT:
Good...now let’s take care of business!
PACO GAMEZ:
Yes!
[Paco loads two sets of five Power Keys into his Puppet Horn, and the ten drone rangers appear.]
KERI SCHMIDT:
We’re gonna grab those too, right, Colin?
COLIN SCOTT:
Oh, yeah!
[The crew inserts their keys into the morphers, and turn them.]

RED HERO RANGER:
Next!
[The rangers then get the next five with a new Hero Wave.]
ALL RANGERS:
Hero Wave!
[The rangers all blast their muskets, then use their swords to slice at the blast to speed up the blast. The remaining five revert to key form. On a rock, Paco talks to Primus.]
PACO GAMEZ:
How’d they get so strong?
RED HERO RANGER:
It’s the power of teamwork, Paco!
PACO GAMEZ:
Thought as much...Primus!
[Primus stands up, and Paco turns a dial on the stomach area of her armor. A lot of blue liquid shoots out to form an enlarged blue monster...HYDROID.]
How about testing your luck on this LIQUIDROID!
[As Paco and Primus take their leave, Hydroid blasts the five with electrical bolts of blue, forcing the rangers to dodge the blasts.]
RED HERO RANGER:
(as he presses 5-5-0-1-* to summon the galleon)
That’s a tall drink of water!
[The galleon’s five rope chains dangle down to pick up the rangers, and heads into space.]

[As the megazord comes down with it’s Dual Heroic Sabers, Hydroid tries to electrocute the robot. The megazord uses it’s swords against the Liquidroid, but the monster uses it’s liquid-like flexibility to dodge the megazord’s attacks...including those of the swords.]
BLUE HERO RANGER:
What is with this guy!? It isn’t like the Scallywags we’ve faced before!
[Hydroid grabs the swords, and liquefies it’s arms.]
If we can’t push him...why don’t we pull him?
RED HERO RANGER:
Good idea, “D!”
[The rangers let go of their steering wheels. The Blue Ranger’s plan works as Hydroid goes down.]

[The team tries to get through to their leader, but it is no use. The pre-occupied Colin leaves the room.]
COLIN SCOTT:
I don’t want you guys to get involved in this...it’s my fight.
[Once Colin is out of the room, the others talk.]
KERI SCHMIDT:
Colin is our friend...we need to help him, even if he doesn’t want us to.
EXT.-QUARRY-DAY
[The next morning, Colin walks into the quarry, and comes to a stop in front of Paco and Primus.]
PACO GAMEZ:
So, you came alone. You always follow the rules. That’s why you were the coach’s pet!
COLIN SCOTT:
That’s why you cheated in the ballgame when we were Freshmen at Angel Grove High?
PACO GAMEZ:
That was an opportunity I couldn’t pass up. Plus...I found these.
DeANDRE TAYLOR:
Oh, but we will interfere.
[The five crewmembers face the mindless rangers, Primus, and Paco.]
COLIN SCOTT:
Let’s make a show of it!
[The five insert their keys into their Hero Morphers, and turn them.]
ALL CREWMEN:
It’s Morphin Time!
voice of HERO MORPHER:
Hero Power!
[The suits "fully-form" over the quintet.]
ALL RANGERS:
(posing)
Heroes Setting Sail For Adventure! Power Rangers, hya!
[Paco snaps his fingers to send in the drones. The Quantum Ranger converts his blaster into it’s sword mode, and the others ready their weapons...Dragon Dagger, Omega Morpher, Golden Power Staff, and Samurai Sword.]
PACO GAMEZ:
[The five drones fire beams at the rangers, who dodge. The rangers use their cutlasses and muskets to battle them...Red versus the Quantum Time Force Ranger...Blue takes on the Green Morphin Ranger...Pink battles the Omega S.P.D. Ranger...Green faces the Green Samurai Ranger...and Yellow battles the Gold Zeo Ranger. The rangers load their keys into their weapons, and prepare to execute the Hero Wave. Soon, the drones are defeated, and are forced back to key form.]
RED HERO RANGER:
You and your pet monkey are next, Paco!
PACO GAMEZ:
I don’t think so...old friend!
[A sudden explosion goes off behind the Red Ranger. Ten more drones have appeared with their weapons. Everyone goes down, and attempt to recover...and see who they are up against. The Red Ranger battles the Gold Kendo Ranger and Solaris Knight Mystic Ranger...the Pink Ranger battles the Mercury Overdrive Ranger and White Morphin Ranger...the Yellow Ranger battles the Gold and Silver Sky Rangers...the Green Ranger takes on the Silver Space Ranger and Lunar Wolf Wild Force Ranger....and the Blue Ranger faces the White Dino Ranger and Silver Star Ranger.]
You have to realize, Colin...you have to throw away something to gain something.
[The four other rangers are defeated, and forced out of morph, and are roughed up...badly. DeAndre tries to reach for his cutlass, and gets his hand and head stepped on. The Red Ranger is the last to go down. The drones take hold of the other galleon crew.]
Let’s go!
[Everyone except for Colin teleports up to the Free Joker, looming over the battlefield. Before he teleports up, Paco taunts Colin.]
Like I keep saying, Colin...you have to throw away something to gain something.
[As everyone leaves on the Free Joker (which is taking off), the Red Ranger de-morphs, and collapses to his hands and knees in exhaustion, and let’s out a primal-like scream of anger and frustration. TO BE CONTINUED...]

BROCK CRANSTON:
Everyone! Our bounty has gone up again! It’s up to twelve thousand five hundred and five Zabatars!
COLIN SCOTT:
(as he grabs the paper from Brock, throws it)
That’s only if we go into the depths of space. Navix! Navigate us another clue!
NAVIX:
I sense big danger ahead!
[As Navix moves out of the way, one of Colin’s darts is stuck in the picture of Colin, near the figure’s heart.
COLIN SCOTT:
Sounds exciting.
NAVIX:
I have a very bad feeling about this.
EXT.-OUTER SPACE-DAY

PACO GAMEZ:
(scheming)
So...the treasure is here on Earth. And so is my arch-nemesis...Colin Scott!
INT.-OUTER SPACE-STAMPEDER-BRIDGE-DAY
[The ship’s sensors pick up the presence of the Free Joker.]
PRINCE KRAKEN:
Could it be reinforcements from my father?
KYATSU:
I don’t think so...it is one of our fleet ships...but the commander has a special status with us.
[Everyone exits the room, but Sanbo...he knows something.]
SANBO:
What are you up to, Paco?
EXT.-CITY-PLAZA-DAY
[The five crewmen look for something dangerous...like a normal clue from Navix. Soon, Brock slips and falls backward on a discarded banana peel.]
NIKKI BUCHANAN:
Brock! Are you okay?
[The five look upward to see the source of the banana...Primus!]
PACO GAMEZ:
Still playing the game, Colin?
COLIN SCOTT:
(recognizing the voice)
Paco! What are you doing here?
PACO GAMEZ:
I am here for the treasure.
[The other four crewmen’s attention is perked as Colin uses his musket to blast the duo, but Primus uses her Cymbammers to deflect the shots. Colin the charges with his cutlass, but is blocked by the monkey.]
NIKKI BUCHANAN:
What’s going on?
[Soon, the five galleon crewmen are blasted from above by a trio of already enlarged Scurvies, and must retreat to safety.]
INT.-OUTER SPACE-STAMPEDER-BRIDGE-DAY
[Kyatsu re-enters the room.]
KYATSU:
Sanbo...why did you send the Scurvies down? You’re up to something...aren’t you?
SANBO:
I was just giving our friend a helping hand.
EXT.-CITY-PLAZA-DAY
[Paco and Primus make their exit as the five crewmen continue to dodge the Scurvies.]
PACO GAMEZ:
I’d love to stay and catch up old times...but I see that you got your hands full.
DeANDRE TAYLOR:
Colin! Call the galleon!
[Colin presses 5-5-0-1-* to summon the Galleon. The five rope chains hang down, and picks up the crew.]
EXT.-OUTER SPACE-DAY
[The galleon releases the other Starzords, and form the Hero Megazord.]
EXT.-CITY-DAY
[The megazord lands, and readies it’s Dual Heroic Sabers to use against the three Scurvies, who charge at the robot. The megazord battles the Scurvies, but is lacking strength.]
YELLOW HERO RANGER:
Let’s use the Mystic Keys
[It seems that the Red Ranger is pre-occupied.]
RED HERO RANGER:
Yeah.
[The rangers insert the keys, and turn the dial to activate the megazord’s Mystic Mode.]
ALL RANGERS:
Mystic Bind!
[The megazord executes it’s finisher, and destroys one Scurvy. On a nearby rooftop, Paco and Primus watch the megazord battle.]
PACO GAMEZ:
So...those are the great powers that Sanbo told me about.
[The rangers then insert and turn their S.P.D. Keys. The megazord converts into it’s Delta Mode, and executes the Delta Sniper-Full Blast as the two watch. The other two Scurvies are destroyed, but the sudden appearance of Paco weighs heavily on the Red Ranger, who grips the steering wheel.]
INT.-CITY-GALLEON-MAIN ROOM-DAY
[Colin sits in his Captain’s chair, gripping the armrest.]
DeANDRE TAYLOR:
Colin...who is this guy, and what is going on?
COLIN SCOTT:
I don’t want you guys getting involved...it has nothing to do with you.
KERI SCHMIDT:
But it does, Colin...he is after the treasure...just like us.
NAVIX:
Paco was once on the same baseball team as Colin at Angel Grove High.
COLIN SCOTT:
We were in the playoffs. Paco was accused of throwing our final game of the championship. We lost, but Paco was later cleared by the athletic federation. A year later, the team had a get-together, where Paco revealed that he did bet against our team. I never forgave him for that. Because of his transgressions being revealed, he left the city.
DeANDRE TAYLOR:
An now he’s a member of the Zangyu.
KERI SCHMIDT:
And he knows our mission, and seemingly our equipment.
COLIN SCOTT:
He had this saying too...you have to throw away something to gain something.
NIKKI BUCHANAN:
But, why did he just...show up?
COLIN SCOTT:
He’s up to something...that’s for sure.
[The team consoles Colin a bit.]
INT.-OUTER SPACE-FREE JOKER-BRIDGE-DAY
[Sanbo comes aboard.]
SANBO:
I see that all went well.
PACO GAMEZ:
Thank you for the intelligence on them. With the treasure...the Earth...the Power Keys...and the power. Everything is coming together.
SANBO:
What are you gonna do about your old friend and his crew?
PACO GAMEZ:
I will get rid of them...maybe collect the bounties on their heads.
[Paco whips out a gold Hero Morpher-like item, and calls Colin.]
INT.-CITY-GALLEON-MAIN ROOM-DAY

Paco!

Kaizoku Sentai Gokaijaa, Episode #14 “Now For Traffic Safety"
-------------------------------------------
INT.-CITY (ANGEL GROVE)-GALLEON-MAIN ROOM-DAY
[The entire crew takes a nap...including Navix, who soon has a vision. She looks similar to the Condor Nitrozord, racing down a street, but has to dodge on-coming big-rig trucks and “melting” traffic signs. She then wakes up, and does her “head-bump” routine on the ceiling of the ship, waking everyone up.]
NAVIX:
Everyone should obey the rules of the road...oy!
[Navix tips over in a comedic ploy. The crew is confused, but intrigued.]
INT.-OUTER SPACE-STAMPEDER-BRIDGE-DAY
[Sanbo shows Kraken a video of a human in red...T.J. Johnson, that came into contact with their previous Scallywag, Zangler.]
SANBO:
Sire...I thought that you should see this. A human interfered Zangler’s mission the other day. The human reprimanded Zangler for trying to cross the street on a red light.
PRINCE KRAKEN:
And...? Sanbo...this...human’s interference is insignificant to our plans.
[Everyone except for Kyatsu exits the room. Kyatsu sees the frozen video of the man, and presses play. She sees the man fold his arms, and looks like he made a difference.]
KYATSU:
Ooh! He’s cute!
[Zealoci enters the room, see’s his old crush, Kyatsu at the computer controls and in command of the ship.]
Zealoci! I need you to do something for me.
[Kyatsu hands the Scallywag a picture of T.J..]
I need you to go into the city, and capture this man for me.
ZEALOCI:
I’ll do anything for you, my love!
EXT.-CITY (ANGEL GROVE)-PARK-DAY
[T.J. is at a baseball diamond, playing a game of baseball with his semi-professional team. He has just hit a homerun, and trots the bases to come home.]
PLAYER:
That was a long one, Teej!
T.J. JOHNSON:
(shrugging off the accolades)
It was just a lucky shot!
PLAYER:
But it was the game-winning run!
T.J. JOHNSON:
Okay...but I got to get going. Got some other friends waiting for me.
[T.J. waves good-bye to his teammate, and starts walking away from the ball-field. Suddenly, Zealoci and a platoon of Foilers teleport in. The group looks at the picture, and determines that they have the right man.]
ZEALOCI:
That him? Good! Get him!
[T.J. looks very surprised, and starts to run away a bit, then stops to take a stance.]
T.J. JOHNSON:
Hey! Wait a minute!
[T.J. puts up a good fight.]
INT.-OUTER SPACE-STAMPEDER-BRIDGE-DAY
[Kyatsu watches the battle play out on the screen.]
EXT.-CITY-DAY
[The five galleon crewmembers read a DMV handbook, and practice the rules of the road.]
KERI SCHMIDT:
(skeptical)
Are you sure this is what Navix meant?
[Suddenly, the five see a man running from the Foilers on a elevated pedestrian bridge.]
NIKKI BUCHANAN:
What’s that all about?
COLIN SCOTT:
I don’t know...but we’d better check it out. Come on!
[Soon, the Foilers have T.J. cornered, but some of the minions get blasted by the rangers, who use their Crossbone Muskets and Cutlasses, angering Zealoci. TT.J. recognizes the rangers.]
T.J. JOHNSON:
So, those are the Hero Rangers. Tommy and the others chose well!
[The Pink Ranger recommends using the Morphin Ranger Power Keys. The five insert the keys into their morphers, and turn to transform.]
voice of HERO MORPHER:
Morphin Power!
[The Morphin Ranger suits “fully-form” over the bodies of the five. The rangers use their Power Weapons to attack.]
T.J. JOHNSON:
Cool!
[Soon, all of the Foilers cackle in blue energy bolts, and explode. Zealoci really gets angry, and zaps the rangers with red beams from his hands. The Blue and Yellow Rangers leap up and use their Power Lance and Power Daggers...The Black and Pink Rangers leap up with their Power Axe and Power Bow to attack...the the Red Ranger leaps in with the Power Sword to slash Zealoci, who tries to catch the blade, but misses, and is rewarded with two more slashes. Zealoci falls over.]
INT.-OUTER SPACE-STAMPEDER-BRIDGE-DAY
[Kyatsu sees how poorly Zealoci has done.]
KYATSU:
I knew he was spineless...but that was embarrassing!
EXT.-CITY (ANGEL GROVE)-DAY
[The rangers power all the way down, and are met by T.J..]
T.J. JOHNSON:
So...you guys are the Hero Rangers.
COLIN SCOTT:
Yeah...Jason, Zack, Billy, Trini, and Kimberly are our parents.
T.J. JOHNSON:
I was the Red Turbo Ranger after Tommy. After the Legend War, I have been a semi-pro ball-player.
KERI SCHMIDT:
Is that why the Foilers were after you?
T.J. JOHNSON:
Maybe.
KERI SCHMIDT:
This is what Navix meant!
INT.-OUTER SPACE-STAMPEDER-BRIDGE-DAY
[Kyatsu watches the monitor. She seems even more in love with T.J., and prances around the room. Unbeknownst to her, Zealoci is watching her dance, and gets very jealous.]
ZEALOCI:
I was to go get him for her!? Now I am jealous!
EXT.-CITY (ANGEL GROVE)-DAY
[Brock talks with T.J. for a bit. Suddenly, Zealoci arrives, and uses a fire attack on the two. Kyatsu teleports in, and berates Zealoci.]
KYATSU:
I ordered you to bring him to me.
ZEALOCI:
Stand aside, Kyatsu...I must defend my love for you!
KYATSU:
No!
[Kyatsu picks up T.J., and twirls him around to dodge the blasts, then runs off with him as the Scallywag follows. Soon, the others re-join Brock’s side.]
BROCK CRANSTON:
(bewildered)
What is going on around here!?
COLIN SCOTT:
Let’s go find out!
KYATSU:
Just don’t stand there like the peanut gallery...help me!
[The five crewmembers morph, and ready their weapons. The Green Ranger leaps in to slice the Scallywag with his sword, then kicks him downstairs to battle the others and their swords. Zealoci attacks the rangers by burning up, and running through the five several times, the powers it up to make the rangers go down.]
BLUE HERO RANGER:
What is with this guy!?
T.J. JOHNSON:
Guys! Use your Turbo Keys, and shift into Turbo!
[Red and the others use their Auto Keys, stick them into the morpher, and turn the key.]
voice of HERO MORPHER:
Auto Power!
T.J. JOHNSON:
I said, the Turbo Keys!
RED AUTO RANGER:
Shift Into Turbo!
[The rangers try again, and succeed.]
voice of HERO MORPHER:
Turbo Power!
[The five charge in to battle Zealoci, with the Red Ranger even head-butting the Scallywag, then kicks him down. The five then summon their weapons (complete with helmet headlight flash), and all rush to attack Zealoci.]
RED TURBO RANGER:
Turbo Lightning Sword!
[The Red Ranger leaps in with his weapon to slash Zealoci. As T.J. watches proudly, Kyatsu gets her hands on him, and puts him onto his back, and sits on him. She tries to kiss T.J., who forces her off of him.
T.J. JOHNSON:
Not today, freak!
[T.J. runs off as the pink enlargement beam hits Zealoci to make him grow. The rangers see the growth.]
RED HERO RANGER:
All of this is nuts! I’m summoning the zords!
[The Red Ranger presses 5-5-0-1 on his morpher to summon the galleon, which flies over and drops the drag chains to pick up the rangers, The galleon then blasts Zealoci with it’s cannons to cause sparks just before it goes into space.]
EXT.-OUTER SPACE-DAY
[The galleon releases the other Powerzords, and forms the Hero Megazord.]
ALL RANGERS:
Hero Megazord!
[The megazord travels back down to the city, to confront Zealoci.]
EXT.-CITY-DAY
[The megazord lands, faces Zealoci. In the cockpit, the rangers insert their Power Keys, and turn them to activate the Hero Power Bomber as the Scallywag charges at the robot. Cannonballs are launched at him at point-blank range, and is blasted back. He soon recovers.]
RED HERO RANGER:
I’ve had enough of this clown. Let’s take care of him!
[The rangers insert their Turbo Keys, and turn them. The megazord glows.]
ALL RANGERS:
Hero Megazord, Turbo Mode!
[The megazord waits for a green light, then speed-charges Zealoci, then the megazord, with it’s dual swords executes it’s finisher.]
Hero Megazord...Spinout!
[The megazord spins around with it’s swords to attack Zealoci.]
voice of GREEN HERO RANGER:
Oh, I’m gonna be sick!
voice of PINK HERO RANGER:
Not in the helmet, Brock!
[The megazord strikes Zealoci with it’s swords to make the Scallywag go down again.]
T.J. JOHNSON:
That got him!
ALL RANGERS:
(as the megazord forms)
Hero Megazord, Kendo Mode!
[Zealoci leaps into the megazord, but the robot uses it’s double-bladed staff to slash the Scallywag three ways.]
Fire Striker! Ignite!
[The flaming weapon is summoned to slice Zealoci in two. He is engulfed in flames, and cackles with energy bolts...but continues to stand.]
RED HERO RANGER:
Batter up!
[The megazord uses the weapon to fling Zealoci into space. T.J. puts his hand over his eyes to shade from the sun as he watches the Scallywag get launched into the sky.]

Homerun!

ZEALOCI:
Stand aside, Kyatsu...I must defend my love for you!
KYATSU:
No!
[Kyatsu picks up T.J., and twirls him around to dodge the blasts, then runs off with him as the Scallywag follows. Soon, the others re-join Brock’s side.]

What is going on around here!?

Let’s go find out!

Turbo Lightning Sword!
[The Red Ranger leaps in with his weapon to slash Zealoci. As T.J. watches proudly, Kyatsu gets her hands on him, and puts him onto his back, and sits on him. She tries to kiss T.J., who forces her off of him.
T.J. JOHNSON:
Not today, freak!
[T.J. runs off as the pink enlargement beam hits Zealoci to make him grow. The rangers see the growth.]
RED HERO RANGER:
All of this is nuts! I’m summoning the zords!
[The Red Ranger presses 5-5-0-1 on his morpher to summon the galleon, which flies over and drops the drag chains to pick up the rangers, The galleon then blasts Zealoci with it’s cannons to cause sparks just before it goes into space.]

RED HERO RANGER:
I’ve had enough of this clown. Let’s take care of him!
[The rangers insert their Turbo Keys, and turn them. The megazord glows.]

Not in the helmet, Brock!

That got him!

Hero Megazord, Kendo Mode!
[Zealoci leaps into the megazord, but the robot uses it’s double-bladed staff to slash the Scallywag three ways.]

[The flaming weapon is summoned to slice Zealoci in two. He is engulfed in flames, and cackles with energy bolts...but continues to stand.]
RED HERO RANGER:
Batter up!
[The megazord uses the weapon to fling Zealoci into space. T.J. puts his hand over his eyes to shade from the sun as he watches the Scallywag get launched into the sky.]

PRTNG #17-DesperateMeasures
Based Upon
Kaizoku Sentai Gokaijaa, Episode #13 “Tell Me The Way"
*Rated TV-14 for Fantasy Violence, Situations, and Language
------------------------------------------
INT.-RIO MESA-GALLEON-MAIN ROOM-DAY
[The morning after their big two day battle with Delzei, the team relaxes. Colin just wakes up, and grabs an apple from the bowl on the table. Brock is fixing an electrical item as DeAndre does sit-ups and Keri is admiring her jewelery collection.]
DeANDRE TAYLOR:
‘Morning...did you sleep well?
COLIN SCOTT:
Yeah...that medicine that Paolo and Talia put on me really worked! Where’s Nikki?
BROCK CRANSTON:
She went window shopping at the outdoor marketplace. She should be back soon.
EXT.-RIO MESA-PLAZA-OUTDOOR MARKETPLACE-DAY
[Nikki admires the various merchandise for sale at the various booths. As she passes a window display, she doesn’t know that she is not alone...a man named Elias is watching her every move. Nikki walks away from the marketplace to head back to the ship. By a set of stairs, Elias confronts her.]
ELIAS:
Excuse me...do you know where the bus station is?
NIKKI BUCHANAN:
Sure...let me take you there.
[The two start walking toward the bus station. A couple dozen feet down the way, Elias grabs Nikki by the arm, and holds a gun to her side.]
ELIAS:
No sudden moves, or I will have no choice.
[Nikki looks scared as Elias looks very convincing, and threatening.]
INT.-OUTER SPACE-STAMPEDER-BRIDGE-DAY
[Kyatsu arrives on the bridge, and has some good news to tell Kraken.]
KYATSU:
Sire...I have some good news. That meteorite that crashed on Earth two days ago has been confirmed to have powerful qualities to it.
PRINCE KRAKEN:
Excellent! Little do those puny Earthlings realize, that that tiny little rock can emit a deadly toxin when exposed to electrical currents. I want to acquire that meteorite!
SHIREIKAN:
Zangler!
[A blue and green angler fish-like Scallywag enters the bridge.]
KYATSU:
This should give you the jolt you need to activate that meteorite.
ZANGLER:
I’ll get that purdy little rock for ‘ya!
INT.-RIO MESA-WAREHOUSE DISTRICT-ABANDONED WAREHOUSE-DAY
[Elias forces Nikki into a dark, abandoned warehouse.]
ELIAS:
What is your phone number...I’m gonna call for a ransom.
[Elias gets angry, and points the gun to Nikki’s head, but she notices something, and sticks her finger into the barrel of the firearm.]
Are you crazy or something!?
[Nikki kicks the weapon into the air, and performs various spin kicks in front of her kidnapper to intimidate him before catching the gun.]
NIKKI BUCHANAN:
(handing the gun back to Elias)
This is a toy, right? Here.
ELIAS:
Who are you, some sort of superhero?
NIKKI BUCHANAN:
I am a Power Ranger...the Pink Hero Ranger, to be exact.
[Elias realizes that he has made a very huge mistake, and collapses to his hands and knees, and grovels at Nikki’s feet.]
ELIAS:
(crying)
I’m so sorry! But I had no choice! I had quit my job to open my own business, and had to borrow money from what turned out to be a shady company. They took everything, and I still owed them a two hundred and fifty thousand dollars by the end of the month...or else they would go after my family. I didn’t know what else to do...I am so desperate!
NIKKI BUCHANAN:
I understand. What is your name?
ELIAS:
(clearing his eyes)
Elias...but you can call me Eli.
NIKKI BUACHANAN:
Okay, Eli. My name is Nicole, but everyone calls me Nikki. Let’s see if we can work something out. But first, my friends are expecting me. I better call them to let them know that I am okay.
[Nikki uses her morpher to call the ship.]
Hi, guys...I am okay...just with my kidnapper.
INT.-RIO MESA-GALLEON-MAIN ROOM-DAY
[Brock quickly stands up. The news gets everyone’s attention.]
BROCK CRANSTON:
Kidnapper!?
[Brock and Keri are in shock, wrestle for the morpher.]
COLIN SCOTT:
Let’s go and find out. Brock...track her morpher.
INT.-RIO MESA-WAREHOUSE DISTRICT-ABANDONED WAREHOUSE-DAY
[The two try to figure out things when Zangler enters the warehouse.]
ZANGLER:
I didn’t think I would find you so quickly! Now, hand it over!
NIKKI BUCHANAN:
What’s he talking about?
ELIAS:
Have no clue!
ZANGLER:
I want the meteorite!
NIKKI BUCHANAN:
(realizing what the Scallywag is after)
Meteorite!? Don’t give it to him, Eli!
[Zangler blasts the two, who dodge, but Nikki’s necklace is shot off of her neck. Nikki pulls out her Crossbone Musket to blast back at the Scallywag.]
NIKKI BUCHANAN:
Clue or no clue...we got to get out of here!
[Nikki fires her weapon at the lights, to let the darkness cover their way out, with Zangler hot on their tail. Suddenly, the four other crew members slice and shoot their way into the warehouse.]
BROCK CRANSTON:
This is where Nikki’s morpher signal was pinging from.
DeANDRE TAYLOR:
(picking up Nikki’s necklace, showing the others)
She was here...look!
[Everyone looks at the frayed “rope” part of the piece of jewelery, get worried. Soon, the four are called.]

Rangers...further analysis shows the readings of a Scallywag.
[The four run out of the warehouse.]
KERI SCHMIDT:
Navix...continue to track Nikki’s morpher!
EXT.-CITY-DAY
[Zangler chases Nikki and Elias up a street. The two accidentally run into a dead end, and are cornered by the Scallywag.]
ZANGLER:
Ha! Gotcha now! Volt Vine!
[Zangler unleashes green tendril-like vines to attack the two, and cause explosions.]
NIKKI BUCHANAN:
I’ve had it with this guy!
[Nikki inserts her Power Key into her Hero Morpher, and turns the key. The Pink Ranger suit “flash-forms” over Nikki’s body. She then leaps into the air, and blasts Zangler with her Crossbone Musket. The Scallywag deflects the blasts, the uses his Volt Vines again. The Pink Ranger is thrown to in front of Elias, and rolls on the ground.]
ZANGLER:
(as the Pink Ranger transforms)
Let’s finish this!
PINK AGENT RANGER
(as she removes an earring, and throws it at Zangler)
My thoughts exactly!
[The Pink Agent Ranger uses her morpher and a key to transform into the Pink Star Ranger.]
PINK STAR RANGER:
(with the Star Morpher and Tornadic Transport Star Card)
Time to go!
[Zangler re-loads his blaster.]
EXT.-CITY-WATERFRONT-DAY
[A little later, Nikki and Elias run on the promenade, and find an area to hide. The citizen is exhausted and overwhelmed.]
NIKKI BUCHANAN:
Think about it...have you picked up anything in the last couple days?
ELIAS:
Come to think of it...I did pick up a pretty rock the other day.
[Elias hand the rock over to Nikki.]
NIKKI BUCHANAN:
I believe this is it!
ELIAS:
(sits down on a curb to cry)
Of all the rotten luck I have had recently.
[Elias hands the meteorite over to Nikki for safe-keeping. Suddenly, Zangler and a platoon of Foilers find them.]
ZANGLER:
(taunting)
Found you!
[Soon, the other four crewmen arrive.]
COLIN SCOTT:
(taunting)
Found you!
[The four leap down to face charging minions. Colin uses his cutlass to slice and dice at Zangler as everyone else goes after the Foilers. Even though it hurts, Keri head-butts a Foiler as DeAndre leaps down to slice and dice. He even punches one in the face multiple times. Brock the puts a Foiler into a “figure four leg-lock...” the Foiler even tries to “tap-out.” Colin pins one to the wall with his foot, and attempts to blast it in the face, but is interrupted by other minions by having to slice and blast them.]
ZANGLER:
You Foilers are hopeless!
KERI SCHMIDT:
And so are you...kidnapping our friend!
[Nikki and Elias look confused. She then joins the others, and all five prepare their morphers and keys.]
ALL TEENS:
It’s Morphin Time!
[The suits “fully-form” over the five. The rangers face the charging Foilers with the Crossbone Muskets and Crossbone Cutlasses, and melee-battle the minions. The Blue Ranger punches a Foiler in the face repeatedly...AGAIN! The Yellow Ranger trades her musket to the Pink Ranger for her cutlass. She fights with the two blasters as Elias watches from behind a nearby tree in the park, but some Foilers get too close, and the Pink Ranger goes to help him.]
PINK HERO RANGER:
Be careful, okay!
[Elias watches the Pink Ranger as she continues to battle the Foilers. The rangers continue to battle Zangler and the Foilers, and defeat the minions, who all explode. The five face the Scallywag, who uses his Volt Vines again to cause an explosion to throw the rangers back, and they roll. They quickly recover. The Pink Ranger holds up her Galaxy Power Key.]
Let’s use these!
[The rangers insert the keys into their morphers, and turn them. The Galaxy Ranger suits form over the Hero Ranger suits.]
voice of HERO MORPHER:
Galaxy Power!
[The rangers use their Quasar Sabers, and charge at the charging Zangler, who uses a whirling attack. The rangers use their elemental attacks on the Scallywag, who is caught up in the resulting explosion, and rolls. The rangers then charge at Zangler, using their sword attack one-by-one to attack Zangler again. The rangers power down into their Hero Ranger forms, and insert their keys into their muskets.]
ALL RANGERS:
Hero Wave!
[Zangler cackles in red energy bolts, and is engulfed in flames as he collapses and explodes.]
PINK HERO RANGER:
That got him!
[Suddenly, a pink beam rains down onto Zangler, to revive and enlarge him. The Red Ranger presses 5-5-0-1-* to summon the galleon. Soon, the megazord lands in front of the Scallywag.]
ALL RANGERS:
Hero Megazord!
[The megazord faces Zangler, who uses his Volt Vines to cause sparks and smoke in the cockpit. The rangers insert the S.P.D. Keys. and turn the dial.]
Hero Megazord, Delta Mode!
[The megazord uses it’s twin blasters to blast Zangler, then takes to the air to blast him again, and knocks him down. The rangers then insert the Wild Force Keys, then the Kendo Keys to activate the megazord’s Kendo Mode. Zangler charges the megazord, as it uses it’s double-bladed staff to attack the Scallywag to knock him down again. The megazord then calls for the large Fire Striker.]
Heroic Sword Slash!
[The megazord drops the Fire Striker to destroy Zangler, then poses victoriously. The rangers breathe a sigh of relief in the cockpit as well.]
EXT.-CITY-WATERFRONT-DAY
[The five crewmen are at a railing, looking out over the water.]
BROCK CRANSTON:
The seawater should negate all effects of this meteorite.
[Nikki goes over to meet with Elias.]
NIKKI BUCHANAN:
I know it is not much...but here is some money from my last deejay gig. It should help out. If you should need anything, here is my cell phone number.
ELIAS:
Thank you again...and...I’m sorry for causing so much trouble.
[Elias waves goodbye as does Nikki, with the others watching from behind her.]
