I was standing at the lab table with Tyler and Koda, watching Shelby and Kendall take apart what was left of the e-tracer. Kendall pulled out a clump of wires that were black and charred. "Our beautiful e-tracer up in smoke." Shelby said, sadly. Koda's stomach growls randomly.

"Sorry, I very hungry." Koda says, apologetically.

"It's okay Koda. I ordered pizza a while ago." Kendall reassures Koda.

"Chase went to go get it." I add.

"So, Fury knows where the Ptera zord is, but will he tell Sledge?" Shelby asked, bringing us back on the problem ahead of us.

"Sledge doesn't care about the zord unless it leads him to the gold energem." Kendall countered.

"But Fury betrayed Poisandra, so it means that Sledge can't trust him anymore-" I started, but Tyler cut me off.

"Whoa, whoa wait. I am so confused, what's our next step?" Tyler asked.

"Maybe we eat." Koda suggested and we all smiled.

"I think I solved it." Riley started and we all turned to Riley. "We need to look at the problem logically. Sledge, Poisandra, Fury." Riley starts while holding up different colored marbles for each monster. We all walk towards him and towards his marble run track. "Now, they each take their own paths chasing after power, love, maybe revenge." Riley says and drops his marbles into the marble run construction. "But, there is one thing that all of them need first."

"The energems." Shelby answered.

"Exactly. Their only chance of getting an energem is with a very powerful weapon, like the Ptera zord. Different paths all leading to one conclusion." Riley concluded as the three marbles fell into their final spot.

"So, they've got to power up the Ptera charger." Tyler said. Riley nodded.

"But there is only one lab like ours with equipment strong enough to be able to energize a dino charger." Kendall answered.

"Then logically, that lab is where we start." Riley said, concluding our first step to get the Ptera charger back from Fury.

"I'll look up the coordinates of the lab." I said, having a brief idea of where the lab is. At the laptop, I scanned the city area and found the lab. I transfer the coordinates to my Dino com and put them on a map to get us there. "Got it." I state. The others look at me once I spoke up.

"Okay. Let's head out." Tyler said. We grabbed our energems on the way out and I lead the way to the lab. We all rush towards the lab. When we reach the lab, we see Chase fighting a monster by himself near the entrance of the building. Chase gets knocked into a giant chess board and the pieces that Chase hits fall to the ground.

"Chase!" Shelby shouts as we run into the courtyard and towards our friend.

"Yikes, probably more rangers!" The monster shouts and runs into the lab building while we rush to Chase's aid.

"Chase, you okay?" Koda asks while Tyler helps Chase up.

"I'm fine. Puzzler just caught me by surprise with that last attack." Chase replied.

"Fury must be in there with the Ptera charger." Riley points out the only reason why one of Sledge's monster would be here and not somewhere else where he could cause chaos.

"Well, let's pay him a visit." Tyler said and we start to file into the lab. We walked into the building and it definitely looked like no one's been there in years with the dust collecting up, along with the things around here looked beat up.

"This looks like no one's been here in years." I commented, taking in the surroundings.

"We have to find that lab and fast." Tyler instructed us.

"Let's split up." Riley suggested and the rest of us took off into different hallways. I sprint down the hall and pushed a window's curtain aside, only to find them covered in bricks.

"That's weird." I say to myself, not knowing why this building's windows would be blocked. I continue down the hallway, and looked at the only turn out. I take the right turn to another hallway and as I walk down the hall, I notice that I'm in the same exact hallway. "What?" I ask to myself. I decide to mark the hall somehow and take the curtains off of the window. I drop them to the ground and continued down the hallway. I take the same right turn and find myself in the same hallway. The window doesn't have curtains on it and it's in the same spot where I dropped it. "It's some kind of looping illusion." I concluded. I continued to try and find someway out, but give up soon. I kept walking around because the temperature started to drop and I was starting to shiver. My Dino com rang and I picked up the call and saw that Riley was calling the rest of us in a group call.

"Guys can you hear me?" Riley asked.

"Loud and clear." I reply, trying to keep my teeth from chattering.

"I'm here, but I have no idea where here is." Tyler added, implying that he was also in a loop. "It is so cold."

"I keep running up the same staircase, trying to keep warm." Shelby said, telling us how she's attempting to keep warm.

"I'm stuck in a loop too." Chase adds.

"I still hungry." Koda said, pointing out that he needs food.

"Listen, I found a way out---" Riley starts but the connection is cut off by static. I look down as the dino com and see that the dino com is loosing it's signal, while starting to freeze over.

"Now is not a good time for something to screw with my dino com." I grumbled and shook the dino com to attempt to get some signal back on it. I sigh, regretting leaving my phone in my room. It keeps getting colder and colder and I've given up walking around and decides to sit in a corner to try and contain my body heat to hopefully not freeze to death. I wrap arms around myself, and try to stay warm. Hopefully someone finds a way to communicate to get us out of the freezing building.

*A/N* I apologize for some of the confusion that I may have caused. I accidentally pushed the publish button for when I was previewing the chapter when I wasn't finished with the chapter, so I had to unpublished it. So you all might've gotten a notification that I updated, sorry about that. But, it's done now and I hope you all enjoyed the chapter!
I'll try and update soon but you know, school is kicking my butt with all of the work and assignments I have to do.
Anyways, hope you all enjoyed the chapter! :)
