Over the past few weeks, we've been building our army of attack bots and I've been keeping my cover as Kali still, hanging out with the Rangers when possible to keep them from hopefully suspecting anything. I would always fight the Rangers while Roxy and Blaze got the Morph X. Each time, I could tell the Rangers were getting more and more frustrated and tired. Now, we were done with the very last one, but it wasn't an attack bot.

"Your wolf zord is ready," Scrozzle told me and I nodded.

"Wait, she gets a zord? After all we've done?" Roxy complained.

"Yeah, because it was my idea and someone has to lead these bots into battle," I shot back.

"Once we take over the Morphing Grid and have unlimited access to Morph X, you will each get your own zords," Master Evox said. That seemed to satisfy Roxy for now. "Is everything ready?" he then asked Scrozzle and me.

"Yes, Master Evox," I replied.

"Good. It's time to unleash our attack!"

"Finally!" Blaze said excitedly. I nodded and morphed with a smirk. Roxy and Blaze morphed, too and then we teleported out with my nine bots. Like usual, we started destroying things and as predicted, the Rangers showed up.

"Oh great...now there's nine!?" Blue said, exasperated.

"You don't stand a chance now, Rangers! Surrender now and I will make your death swift and painless," I said.

"Not a chance! You may have us outnumbered-" Red started.

"Tronics!" Roxy interrupted, summoning our foot soldiers.

"Make that way outnumbered..." Yellow said with a hint of nervousness.

"Regardless, we're not going down without a fight. It's morphin' time!" Red exclaimed.

"Activate Beast Power!"

The Tronics were the first to rush in, along with Roxy and Blaze. It took the Rangers a little longer than normal to defeat the Tronics, but as soon as they did, I sent all my bots in, not letting them get a moment to even breathe. Roxy and Blaze stepped back, and the bots soon overwhelmed the Rangers, causing them to demorph. They had cuts and bruises, and seemed to be hurting pretty bad. "Guys...we have to retreat..." Yellow said as they all slowly stood then bolted.

"Not this time! Roxy, Blaze! Get them!" I ordered and they gave chase. I sent Engine Banki and Nunchuck Banki with them. In a few minutes, they came back with the Yellow Ranger squirming in their grasp. "One Ranger is better than none. Take her back to Master Evox for now. I'm sure the others will come looking for her. We can use her as a bargaining chip," I told them.

"You'll...never win..." Yellow said weakly.

"We'll see about that," I replied and then they teleported away. My bots and I continued to cause chaos as well as collect Morph X.

Back at GB...
"Commander, they captured Zoey," Devon said as he and Ravi came limping in. Nate and the Commander rushed over and helped them sit down.

"There's too many...they overwhelmed us," Ravi explained.

"Yeah...nine powerful attack bots," Devon added.

"Nine? I guess Evox is getting impatient," Nate commented as he helped to bandage their cuts.

"We have to find Zoey," Ravi then said.

"I want to find her too, but you two are in no condition to fight," the Commander replied.

"We have to keep fighting, though! We can't just give up," Devon argued.
