"Ow! Koda that was my foot!"
"Sorry!!"
" Who did I just step on?"
"Me!"
"Ow! Riley stop stepping on me!"
"Maybe I want to step on you hotshot"
"Why is the base so dark?"
"Tyler happened"
"It was an accident"
"That's enough guys"
"Sorry Kend- I men Ms.Morgan"
"I told you all you can call me Kendall we reached that level now"
"Right! Sorry"
They all heard the alien signs go off. The base was so dark that they did not even know where the exit was so they can reach for their Energems and go beat up a monster.
"How are we supposed to leave when it is so dark?!"
"Perhaps we can use the light of our energems"
"Good thinking Ivan. When we find our energems!"
"Tyler how did you make the light bust anyways?"
"Chase and Ivan should have held the ladder better!"
"You shouldn't have been moving so much mate"
"Sir Riley, Lady Shelby and Sir Koda also assisted in this incident"
" I'll fix the light after we defeat this monster. But can we please find a way to get out of here before this monster takes us out first?"
The team is walking through Amber City to see if they can find the monster that is causing some citizens to behave weirdly.
After an hour of searching. The rangers decided to take a break from searching. Chase, Koda, Shelby, Tyler, and Riley sat on a bench that was in between two big stone blocks. Kendall leaned against the stone block on the right with Ivan with his hands behind his back standing beside her.
"Is it just me or is everyone acting strange?' Riley stated as they saw a young couple walk past the bench walking hand and hand. Then they saw a dark pink ball of light circle the young women's bodies. Until both of the young women's eyes turned pink.
The shorter women pulled her hand away from the taller women's then she started opening her mouth. The rangers couldn't make up on what they were saying but they could tell it did not end up nicely. The young couple soon separated storming off into different directors.
"That was strange" Shelby said as she just witnessed what happened to the couple that just stormed off.
"Very strange" Koda added.
Then suddenly rays of pink shot the rangers. Making all seven of them disappear.
"Have fun rangers..." said a very high-pitched female voice that also sounded cracked.
Groans echoed throughout a dark cave with gemstones attached to the stone walls.
"Where are we?" Tyler said as he stepped closer towards his girlfriend closing the gap between them.
"No clue" Shelby said not being fazed by her boyfriend moving closer towards her.
"Hello Rangers.." The monsters voice echoed in the cave. The rangers looked around in the cave like small room they were in.
"Who the hell are you?" Chase said as he slowly walked beside Koda and Riley.
"I am AntiCupid. Welcome to my home!"
'Let us out of here!" Tyler demanded stepping in front of Shelby defensively.
"The only way out of my cave is for two of you to share a true-loves kiss with one another confessing feelings for one another. It cannot be two of you who are already together. You have three hours to do so. When the chain around your friends neck turns red I will be appear. When the chain turns yellow I am coming. When it turns green time is running out"
The rangers looked around with their heads then they saw a metal chain appear around Kendall's neck and it was the normal color of a normal metal chain.
"But Tyler and Shelby are the only ones who have feelings for each other" Rilley said then Tyler and Shelby sat on the cold stone ground next to each other.
"But we are together.." Shelby said leaning her head on Tylers shoulder.
"Looks like we are stuck here then" Chase mumbled as he walked in front of Kendall putting his both of his hands on the chain around his neck.
"How do you even get this fucker off?" He said as he started to pull on the chain leaning backward making Kendall hiss at the pain since the monster made the chain super tight around her neck which made it hard for her to breath and for air to enter her body. Chase pulling on it was not helping
"Ow! Chase stop it the chain is super tight! I can't breathe when you pull!" She stated making Chase stop pulling on the chain. Taking a step back releasing his hands from the chain.
"Sorry Kends" Chase apologized as Kendall took big breathes. She hopes someone confesses soon before this chain takes her out first.
"It's fine. I'll find some way to breathe " She said leaning against the stone wall looking at the gemstones while Riley and Koda admired the gemstones as well.
Ivan looked at Kendall for the next two hours of the rangers being trapped in the cave. He knew she was struggling to stay awake while trying so hard to get air in her body. The chain was choking her slowly. The others were getting cold. Koda stayed in between Chase and Riley trying to be warm. Tyler put his red jacket on Shelby to make sure she stayed worm. The cave was super cold. The energems except the blue and purple energems are not used to cold enviromint's.
The chain around Kendalls neck soon turned yellow. The chain soon squeezed itself tighter around her neck. Making it almost impossible for her to breath. The rangers looked at Kendall as she yelped from the feeling of the chain tighting around her neck.
"Kendall..You o-ok?" Koda asked shivering from the coldness.
"Did this chain get tighter?" Kendall asked making the rangers lift their heads up in alarming. The tighter that chain is. The harder it is for Kendall to breathe. Ivan took a deep breathe. He had to save his friends before they die in this cave. He wanted to keep this a secret. But his friend's lives were more important.
"Friends. I may now how to get us out of this disaster" Ivan said as he took a step forward making the others look at him.
"How?" Asked Riley
"Sir or Madam AntiCupid has informed that two of us must confess romantic feelings towards one another. I have had feelings for one of my comrades for quite some years now. Though I do wish to confess those feelings to them in private.. We are in danger and now might be the time. And I do wish that they share those feelings back" He explained as the other rangers eyes slightly widen. Shelby squealed as she got up to her feet with Chase standing up behind her.
"Who is it?!" They both asked
"30 more minutes rangers!" The monsters voice echoed as the chain around Kendalls neck turned yellow and it got tighter around her neck. Then a chain from a wall attached launched itself to her attaching itself to the chain around her neck. Attaching Kendall to the wall. Tyler Koda and Riley got up immediately to her making sure she has an airway
"Kendall you need to breathe!" Demanded Tyler as he and Koda were trying to separate the chain from the wall to loosen the chain from around the purple rangers neck a little.
"I cant..."
"HEY MONSTER WHAT THE HELL?!" Yelled Chase as his voice echoed.
"Did I forget to mention the short the time gets the tighter the chains become?..."
Kendall started to fall asleep from losing consciousness. They had to keep her awake and make her find someway to get hair way in her body.
"STAY AWAKE!" Tyler, Ivan, Koda, Riley, Chase, and Shelby demanded Kendall to do. They did not want to lose her.
"Hey Ivan! Would really appreciate if you make your move!" Riley said
"Lady Kendall must be fully aware for my move though Sir Riley"
Tyler took out his dino blaster. He blasted the chains on the wall separating the chains from the walls.
"This might hurt Kendall" He warned her. She nodded her head slowly. She's been blasted by a blaster before so she knew what it felt like.
Tyler blasted the chain around Kendall's neck. It didn't come off but he could tell it did loosen up because her eyes opened more wide and she started to stand up more straight.
"Better?" He asked as he put his blaster away.
"Yes but whatever Ivan is about to do he needs to do it before these chains get tighter again" Kendall said as they all looked at Ivan.
Ivan walked in front of Kendall which caused her to slowly take a step back not knowing what the gold ranger was doing.
Ivan looked around to see if there was any other part of the cave that would separate them from the others so he could do this in private since it feels so awkward in front of the other rangers who were staring at the two weirdly. He saw a part of the cave that looks like a cave hallway but it looked like it was a dead end.
Good enough for him.
Ivan took Kendall's hand and he pulled her with him as he walked to the little extra cave room thingy thing. The other rangers stared in confusion. Not knowing what was going on.
The mini cave that the gold ranger pulled the purple ranger in was simply dark. But the purple and glowed bright so the cave was lit up from the lighting of their energems.
"Soo.. What did you pull me in here for?" Kendall asked slightly backing up away from Ivan into a wall as she felt his eyes staying on her.
Ivan walked in front of her closing the large gap between them.
"Don't you have an idea to get us out of here" She said looking up at Ivan who looked down at her.
"Perhaps you have to stay still for me to do so m'lady" Ivan said as he wrapped both of his arms around Kendall's waist pushing her close to him making her hands go on his chest. Opening her mouth, before Kendall could speak Ivan shushed her by leaning forward closing his eyes as he felt his lips collide with Kendall's soft lips.
Kendall slowly closed her eyes as she put her right hand behind Ivan's head slightly pushing him in closer deepening the kiss.
The gold and purple energems shined making a gold and purple balls of light fly around the gold and purple rangers. The two balls of bright light hovered in between the two making them separate making the balls of light turn into hearts.
"Beautiful" Whispered Ivan as he saw the gold heart of ball come in front of him as the purple heart of light came in front of Kendall.
Kendall put both of her hands underneath both of the hearts of lights. She moved both of her hands together making the hearts of lights come together making a bigger heart of light, But this heart of light is half gold half purple.
Ivan smiled as he put his hand under Kendall's. "Do you have those feelings towards me back?"
Kendall smiled as she answered. "Yes I do Ivan" that answer made Ivan smile bigger.
"Now lets get us out of here my knight" she said as the heart of light above their hands flew around the cave making the over rangers look at it in amazement.
"Woah..pretty!" Koda said admiring the lighting heart.
" Yes, it is a glorious sight" Said Ivan as he and the purple ranger walked out of the extra cave room thingy thing standing beside Chase and Koda.
"Wait why is it-" Shelby said before the heart of light made the team glow their ranger colors making them turn into glowing colored lights.
The colored balls of light appeared in front of the Amber Beach Dinosaur Zoo. With another ball of yellow light in front of them.
The lights became the dino charge rangers. The light in front of them became AntiCupid.
"I am sad that you managed to escape my cave rangers!"
"Well sucks to be you" Chase said as the rangers pulled out their blasters aiming them at the monster.
"Wait!! We can talk about this!"
"Conversation over" Riley said as Kendall and Tyler jumped at AntiCupid ad their feet glowed their ranger colors as they kicked the monster into the distance landing on their two feet as their feet stopped glowing the ranger colors.
"AAAAAAHHHHHHH"
"Time for our favorite part of the day.." Shelby said as the rangers took out their dino morphing charges"
