Code Red

Chapter 3

Arriving at City Hall, the Rangers failed to find their teammate. The coordinates were exact, so it was strange to not see him here. The five of them were morphed and ready to go.

"I don't get it." Jake said, "Where is he?"

"I don't know." Troy replied, "Split up and search."

The group of heroes went in various directions. Going alongside her friend, the yellow ranger followed blue to the back. There, the two saw some robots already taken down. Another one freshly joined them, flying through the air, causing both Rangers to have to duck. Sparks came from the soldier as it died. The blue Ranger dusted himself off and helped up his companion.

"Woah!" Gia reacted, "What in the world-"

She did not finish her question before hearing footsteps approaching. The two turned around to see that their friend was joining them.

"Guys!" The sixth ranger started, "Sorry I'm late. I handled a few of those weirdos for ya."

"Wait..." Noah began to ask, "You weren't already fighting these guys before we got here?"

"Nope, I got here two minutes ago. It's why I was able to catch some of them sneaking into the hall and why I smell like cucumber-melon. It pays to know good products." Orion explained as his two friends glanced at one another after the last sentence, "Why did you think I was already here?"

"We got an alert and Gosei said you were-"

"Guys!"

The trio saw the pink ranger appear, "Em, what's up?"

"I tried contacting the others, but they won't answer." Emma informed the team while noticing the silver ranger, "Hey Orion."

The newest member waved a little and smiled.

"Well where are they?" Noah queried.

"I don't know! I tried to locate them on my morpher, but the signal must've cut off or something." Emma responded.

"Uh ok, um let's all try it and we'll see if it'll pick up from a different location." Noah instructed.

The four of them left the area. Whatever was happening, they prayed that the others were safe.

Landing on her feet in a crouch, the fearless teenager let out a grunt. Her target approached her slowly, preparing to strike. Making it impossible for him to try, the young female low kicked his ankles. He fell on his back. That gave her time to back away and pull out her sword. Its glow reflected its power. The alien threat stood up and wiped the dirt off of himself.

"You've got some good moves." He admitted.

"I don't need a devilish imbecile to validate my skills," The protagonist snapped back, "Your existence is unfortunate and sickening to the eye."

Drawing out his choice of weapon, the guy was face to face with the warrior. He let out a faint chuckle.

"I've missed battling you." The alien spoke.

"Our battle never ended." The redhead retorted.

After giving each other one last menacing glare, the two clashed. The male extraterrestrial attempted to stab his enemy. Luckily for her, she blocked the hit and stuck him in the chest. He growled in anger as his sword met hers. An idea formed inside the blue eyed individual's brain. She blocked another oncoming shot. Her opponent kneed her in the stomach and flipped her over. She groaned in pain.
