“Rito my boy, come here,” Vile ordered.

“What’s up Daddio?” Rito replied.

“Feed this to the Tengus,” Vile ordered, as he handed Rito a convulsing bag of live food.

“Sure thing, here Tengy tengy tengy...” Rito mumbled.

“Father, what was that stuff?” Rita asked.

“That food will give the Tengus extra strength and pounding on those rangers will be an easy task,” Vile reported. Zedd grumbled inaudibly, but everyone ignored the sulking villain.

“So you’re going to send the Tengus to pound those ranger rats into dust!” Rita called.

“Yes, and while the rangers are distracted, my special globber monster will turn into his ooze form, which will allow him to enter the command center and capture the beautiful Katherine,” Vile said.

“I still don’t know what you see in her,” Rita spat.

“Be quiet Rita,” Vile ordered.

~*~*~*

Billy sat in the youth center after school, doing the usual homework. Soon, he felt a feather light touch on his shoulder. One that made his heart melt.

“Hi Angel,” Billy said, thinking his nickname for her fit perfectly.

“Hey you,” Kat said, as she kissed him gently and sat down next to him.

“How was your day?” Billy asked.

“Tiring,” Kat said, as she laid her head on his shoulder.

“Yea, finals are coming up and the teachers are really packing it on,” Billy replied.

“Yea, and I am struggling in Chemistry,” Kat said.

“Well, why didn’t you say anything? Chemistry is nothing to me, I can help you get it,” Billy replied.

“You’re so sweet,” Kat said.

“Come on over tonight and we can work on it,” Billy said.

“Okay,” Kat replied. Suddenly, Billy’s communicator sounded.

“I knew that was going to happen,” Billy said, as he and Kat found a secluded corner.

“This is Billy, go ahead,” Billy said into the communicator.

“BILLY, THE TENGUS ARE ATTACKING IN THE PARK, GO NOW AND THE OTHERS WILL MEET YOU THERE. I AM TELEPORTING KATHERINE IN NOW,” Zordon said, as Kat disappeared in a stream of white light.

“Blue Ranger Power!” Billy called, as he teleported to the park. Billy joined the others and began to fight the Tengus. But the rangers found themselves being pummeled by these Tengus.

“Why are they so strong?” Aisha called.

“I don’t know, they’ve never been this hard before!” Rocky called.

~*~*~*

Kat watched her friends and her boyfriend fight the monsters and be thrown around like sacks of potatoes.

“Zordon, why are the Tengus so strong?” Kat asked.

“MY SUSPICION IS THAT MASTER VILE HAS STRENGTHENED THE TENGUS. IT WILL BE MORE DIFFICULT FOR THE RANGERS TO DEFEAT THEM,” Zordon said.

“Be careful my love,” Kat whispered, as her eyes never left her blue ranger.

Soon, they heard an oozing sound. The intruder alarm sounded, as the bluish ooze began to become solid.

“I ORDER YOU TO LEAVE THE COMMAND CENTER IMMEDIATELY,” Zordon boomed.

“Oh, I won’t be long. Master Vile has requested your presence Katherine,” the monster said.

“ALPHA, TELEPORT KATHERINE OUT OF HERE. BILLY AND THE OTHER RANGERS WILL PROTECT HER,” Zordon said. Alpha scrambled for the controls, but the Globber monster stopped Alpha short with blast that shorted his circuits. Kat backed away from the creature, but he shot a bluish blast at her. This blast encased her in a containment field, which allowed the monster to teleport away with her.

~*~*~*

Suddenly, the Tengus disappeared.

“Something’s definitely up,” Adam said.

“Yea, the Tengus were winning, so why did they teleport away?” Tommy said. At that moment, Billy got a sick feeling in his gut.

“It’s Kat, something’s happened to Kat,” Billy said. His brows knitted in worry under his helmet.

“How do you know Billy? Kat’s in the command center,” Aisha said.

“I don’t know, I just feel it,” Billy replied, not caring that he sounded crazy. The others didn’t quite understand, but they soon would learn upon arriving back at the command center.

~*~*~*

“Where’s Kat?” were the first words out of Billy’s mouth when they arrived back at the command center.

“I’M SORRY BILLY, BUT ONE OF MASTER VILE’S MONSTERS HAS PENETRATED THE COMMAND CENTER’S DEFENSES AND CAPTURED KATHERINE,” Zordon said.

“What does Master Vile want with Kat?” Kim wondered.

“I’m glad you asked that pink ranger...” a sinister voice said. The ranger’s turned to the viewing globe and let the image of Master Vile soak in. The rangers knew that Master Vile was on a whole different level of evil than Rita and Zedd.

“What do you want with Katherine?” Billy asked angrily.

“Don’t worry wolf boy, I don’t wish to hurt Katherine. I have chosen the lovely Katherine to become my queen,” Vile said, knowing that he was going to enjoy Billy’s reaction.

Kimberly felt a funny feeling of deja vu, since she had been through nearly the same thing with Lord Zedd. To add to his delight, he pulled Katherine into view, allowing the wolf to see her. He would relish the anguish in the blue ranger’s eyes when he could see her, but not get to her.

Master Vile had chosen Kat’s new attire. She was dressed in a baby blue gown that truly looked like something a queen would wear. It was strapless and glittered with elegance. Kat cringed as Vile held her arm in his vice-like grip. Pain and anguish flashed through Billy’s eyes as he saw Kat being held by Vile against her will.

“What do you want Vile?” Billy asked, through clenched teeth.

“You assume that I want something, because you refuse to believe that I have what I want,” Vile replied.

“Let her go,” Billy all but growled. Vile laughed sinisterly.

“You humans are so amusing when you’re angry. I’m sorry, but she belongs to Master Vile!” the villain said. Kat’s eyes locked with Billy’s

“I love you Billy, no matter what!” Kat called, as she was pulled away by Vile and the viewing screen went dark.

A feeling of complete helplessness swallowed Billy and he fell to his knees at this realization. Kim and Aisha consoled him as he stared into space with a blank expression.

~*~*~*

Kat struggled with her shackles that Vile had placed on her.

“Until you stop your struggle, I will have to keep you bound,” Vile said.

“I will never stop struggling! And I will not be your queen!” Kat spat with venom.

Vile lifted her chin and brought her face toward his own.

“Oh, but you will my dear,” Vile told her.

“Now Globber, go and launch an attack on Angel Grove. Show those rangers no mercy, especially the little blue one,” Vile said evilly. A viewing screen appeared in front of them. Vile was determined to make Kat watch the demise of her friends and most of all, her beloved wolf.

~*~*~*

Suddenly, the alarm went off, pulling Billy out of his thoughts.

“RANGERS, THE GLOBBER MONSTER AND THE TENGUS ARE ATTACKING ANGEL GROVE. BEFORE YOU MORPH, ALPHA AND I WANT TO EQUIP EACH OF YOU WITH A POWERFUL FIGHTING MECHANISM THAT WILL AID YOU IN BATTLE AGAINST THEIR GREAT STRENGTH. STEP FORWARD, AND RECEIVE THE POWERFUL METALLIC ARMOR. USE IT ONLY IF IT IS NECESSARY, FOR TOO MUCH USE COULD BE DANGEROUS,” Zordon said.

“Thanks Zordon, It’s Morphin Time!” Tommy called.

“White Ranger Power!” Tommy called.

“Black Ranger Power!” Adam called.

“Pink Ranger Power!” Kim called.

“Blue Ranger Power!” Billy called.

“Yellow Ranger Power!” Aisha called.

“Red Ranger Power!” Rocky called.

The rangers fought the healthy batch of Tengus and found themselves loosing once again.

“We need extra protection!” Rocky called.

“Let’s do it guys!” Tommy called, as he jumped into the air. The others followed suit.

“Metallic Armor, Power up!” They called in unison. The rangers jumped back into the battle and found that the armor was allowing them a lot more power. “I’m here rangers!” Ninjor called, as he flew down on his cloud. With his powerful staff, Ninjor took on the Globber monster.

~*~*~*

“Perfect, soon I will be in possession of Ninjor as well. Why the long face darling? You should be the happiest woman in the universe,” Vile said.

“Hardly,” Kat replied.

“But my sweet Katherine, I can offer you anything your heart desires. Should you rule with me, thousands of worlds would be but mere bubbles in your collection. Riches and jewelry would be at your fingertips,” Vile offered.

“The one thing I desire is to be with my Billy,” Kat replied.

“Is it my appearance that bothers you? If that’s so, it is easily fixed,” Vile said, as he transformed himself into Billy. Kat’s eyes widened.

“That won’t work! You may look like Billy, but you are still Master Vile!” Kat screamed. Vile chuckled, as he transformed again, this time into an attractive human male, who looked to be in his late twenties.

“I must admit these human bodies are rather attractive. Plus, if I wish for you to produce an heir, I must grow to like this human shell,” Vile said, as he turned to watch the battle. Kat shuddered.

“I know you’ll save me Billy,” Kat whispered to herself.

~*~*~*

Ninjor found himself being knocked back by the Globber monster. Suddenly, yellow and blue snake creatures surrounded him and he was gone.

“He captured Ninjor!” Adam called. The Globber monster turned its attention to the rangers and began using his powers to draw out the ranger’s energy.

“No! Please stop!” Kat cried. Master Vile had transformed back to normal.

“Finish them Globber!” he called.

Soon, the ranger’s metallic armor was gone and the Globber continued to drain their energy.

“We’ve got to retreat!” Tommy said. The rangers agreed and teleported to the command center.

~*~*~*

“Look at that, rangers on the run!” Vile said happily.

Just then, Rita, Zedd, Rito and Goldar teleported into Vile’s ship.

“We saw the battle father and I must say those rainbow colored rejects are as good as dust!” Rita said.

“Yes of course they are. Did you expect anything less with Master Vile?” Vile said.

“What an ego,” Zedd mumbled.

“Well well, what do we have here?” Rita sneered, as she looked at Kat.

“Be nice Rita, Katherine is going to be my bride,” Vile said. Kat looked away in disgust.

“Yea and your little blue ranger can’t save ya girly!” Rito mocked.

“Rito, take my future queen to her quarters. Humans need adequate rest,” Vile ordered. Rito obeyed his father and led Kat to her quarters. Kat expected the quarters to be horrid, but she found that they had been elegantly furnished. Kat ignored all that and let her thoughts drift to her wolf.

“I love you Billy and Master Vile won’t keep us apart. Our love is too strong,” Kat said. Kat crawled into the bed and instantly fell asleep.

Far across the distance
And spaces between us
You have come to show you go on
~*~*~*

“Oh, my legs feel like Jell-O,” Adam groaned.

“YOU HAVE LOST AN EXTREME AMOUNT OF ENERGY RANGERS. YOU MUST REST AND RECHARGE BEFORE VILE ATTACKS AGAIN,” Zordon said. Billy hobbled over to the console and began working.

“What are you doing Billy?” Kim asked.

“I’m going after Kat,” Billy replied.

“Billy, you’re too weak right now, we all are. Vile will capture you and that won’t help Kat any,” Tommy chided. Billy tried to teleport her signal, but Vile had blocked it. The rangers teleported to their homes for the night, none of them being able to fight the extreme exhaustion.

“I love you my angel and I will get you back,” Billy said to himself.

Billy thought that sleep would never come, but he fell into a deep sleep the minute his head touched the pillow.

Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on
