There he sees Jacob and Aubrey partially mutated into what bared a similar resemblance to the putties but more animalistic.

Covered a quarter of the way down the left side of his chest with golden scales and a grotesque monstrous appearance to boot, Jacob now resembled the look of hideous, brooding creatures associated to Gargoyles, his skin now reeking an ugly shade of peach and beige over slinkets of gold around his neck and hair.

Aubrey had a razor sharp scorpion tail-like blade gripped tightly in one hand, said hand now replaced with a golden claw, a new replaced exoskeleton and a burrow grafted into her skin large enough to make room for a narrow, segmented tail. Her appearance bared more animalistic than her brother by far, but the end result was identical across all five teenagers.

Confusion, perplexity and worry.

They did a good job of attracting the other Rangers attention, but not as good as they attracted Billy. Now hypnotized at the sight of the two inmates turned monsters, almost mortified at their mere image, his brain and body was constantly shouting at him not to break down despite his heart speaking the complete opposite. Transformations are known to do wonders for some and horrors to many and upon seeing the twins and deducing their real identities.....

.....Billy wished he took back every second of this night. This was his real-life horror movie turned into a reality.

"We have company, little brother."

"Yes, they're called 'Rangers'. And we are going to destroy them."

At least there's no monologuing, Trini remarked to herself somewhat glad that these new threats aren't completely devoid of common sense and are dumber than a sack of paper. The same time though, she knew that didn't really work well in their favor. Just one step inching towards them at a time and the team were continually put on high alert; this was anything but what the putties presented to them.

Their energy spike also resonated some concern. It felt way familiar to what the putties energy sonar consisted of but much higher in frequency and yet, it still made them completely invisible to the Rangers visor scopes.

"Haven't seen energy readings like this in a while", Jason was precarious enough to admit. He didn't envision the night going smoothly any further but not THIS badly.


"So.....you are these Rangers everyone's been talking about.....here I thought there'd be more of you."

"Patience, Aubrey. There will be....and in an assorted color."

Kimberly and Billy were the only ones who caught the part "One more of them" as Trini stood by Jason both examining them and the gold remains skewed all over their bodies. Jacob bared an uncanny resemblance to a former foe of theirs, a familiarity like they saw him before in some other time. Aubrey was new to them, but Jacob was the only one giving Jason and Zack a hint of Deja Vu.

Couldn't really get far before Trini spoke up and cut off their train of thought. "So.....boys take big ugly, Pink and I get the girl. Seems fair, right?"

Jason was still keen on Jacob's look, knowing it came from somewhere which was why he went ahead to contact the ship. "Red Ranger to Alpha. We have a three-point convergence."

Proceed to ingage.

"You said it be here--where is it?"

"Jacob: It's just the path down. I can feel it, reaching out for us. But first, let's take care of these colored aliens."-

"Let's just be careful. I've seen them on tv; they're stronger than they look."

"We don't have to be. Not anymore.
