breath, and helped him up, "Are you okay?"

"Yeah. How did you get here?"

"No clue. I saw you in trouble, and next thing I knew, I was here."

"More magic training for you, huh?"

"Unfortunately."

"I will destroy you!" Mesogog cried as he stood up. As he went to charge at them, his machine exploded, throwing everyone back.

"Zoey, come on!" Trent helped the Pink Ranger to her feet and grabbed the Dino Gems from the machine.

"Trent, Zoey!" Hayley spoke up through their morphers, "You need to get out of there before the network shuts down!"

"I've gotta find my father! We'll be right there! I know another way out!" Trent told her.

"Trent, there's no time! You need to go, now!"

"Zoey, you should go. I'll join you when I find my father." He told the girl, who shook her head.

"I'm going to pretend you did not just say that." She shot her hands out and sent Vixey on a search, "Let's follow her. She'll find your dad."

"Good work Hayley," Tommy told her, once he and the others returned, "Now let's get out of here, before we're trapped."

Kira frowned, "What about Zoey and Trent?"

"He won't leave without his father." Hayley told them.

Tommy sighed, "No one knows this place better than him. Knowing that Zoey's with him gives me hope. We'll just have to trust that they can get out!" He nodded back to the Hayley, "Now, lets go!"

Conner and Ethan strapped themselves in as Kira looked reluctant, "They'll make it." Jenna promised her, "They're too stubborn to go down like this."

"I hope you're right." Kira nodded.

Andy chuckled, "It's Zoey, dude. She's probably knocked Mesogog out by now for calling her a little girl."

The others chuckled, knowing he was right.

Vixey led the way down the corridors as the main lab exploded, leaving Mesogog to face the explosions. They found Doctor Mercer lying on the ground in one of the other rooms.

"Dad! Come on, we gotta go!" Trent pleaded with him as the two Rangers helped him up.

"Trent... I'm sorry... this is my fault... " Doctor Mercer spoke weakly.

"Not now dad, we gotta go!" Trent told him, and they hurried out of the room. Zoey blasted the Tyrannodrones that stood in their way, and they ran along, until part of the fortress collapsed in front of them. "No!" Trent cried out in horror as they backed away, the ground shaking beneath them.

"Is there another way out?" Zoey asked, looking to Trent.

"Yeah, but we have to go all the way around; there's no way we'll get out in time!" He told her, looking terrified. "I told you that you should have gone on!" He yelled, and Zoey rolled her eyes.

"I wasn't about to leave you alone here. Now, hold on." She grabbed hold of the father/son duo and, focusing on the feeling from before, disappeared with them in a flash of light.

The Truck reappeared in the quarry from the portal. Everyone got out of the vehicle and just stared where the portal was.

"No!" Kira exclaimed, "They can't be gone!"

Jenna placed a hand on Tommy shoulder, "She'll be fine."

He nodded, still worried, "I know."

In the Dino Lab, Rain, Drina and Elsa were watching the Rangers on the computer monitors.

"What happened?" Elsa asked, confused.

"Trent and Zoey didn't make it through." Raina sighed, shaking her head. She looked at Elsa, "What's your real name?"

"It's..." before she could answer, a blast hit one of the pillars behind them, startling the three ladies.

"What?!"

They turned around and saw Zeltrax enter the lab from the tunnel wall.

"How did he..." Raina looked around, trying to figure out how he got there.

"Surprised?" He laughed, "It's all over now!"

"No!" Drina held up a hand and called on a shield as he started shooting laser all over the place. "Stay behind me!" She order, trying to keep Raina and Elsa within the shield.

"There's no point." Zeltrax growled, "I will destroy everything Dr. Oliver loves, starting with this lab!"

Zeltrax fired more lasers until the lab equipment was almost destroyed, as more pillars fell over.

At the quarry, Hayley and the Rangers were all worried, as Trent and Zoey still hadn't returned with Anton.

"Now what do we do?" Conner asked, as they feared the worst.

"I knew we shouldn't have left them." Kira cried softly.

"It's not like they're gonna fall out of the sky and land in front of us?" Ethan said, looking up at the sky.

Jenna followed his gaze and turned back to him in confusion, "Were you knocked on the head or something?"

"What? Last time I did that, it worked."

Andy cringed, "What? Two times the charm?"

A sudden shower of light appeared in front of them and Zoey, Trent and Anton flashed in, looking worse for the wear.

"See?" Ethan laughed as they ran over to check on their friends.

"Whoa." Zoey shook her head, "Really glad that worked." She smirked, "Just more things for me to practice. Yea!"

"Zoey." Tommy grabbed his sister in a hug, "Cutting it close, baby girl."

"I'd apologize and say I'd never do it again, but um..." she chuckled, burying her face in his chest as she returned his hug.

He sighed, "We all know you would."

"You guys are alright!" Kira smiled in relief.

"What about Mesogog?" Tommy asked, turning to Anton.

"I don't think he made it." Trent told them, and held out the case. "But just in case..." he opened it to reveal their Gems, and Tommy smiled in relief.

"Tommy... I don't know where to start... " Mercer looked to his old friend, who shook his head at him.

"We'll talk later. We'd better get back to the lab." He told them. "We still have Zeltrax to deal with."

Zoey groaned, "Way to spoil the mood, bro." She was tired. Definitely needed a nap. "Let's think about dealing with Zeltrax tomorrow."

Andy scoffed, "Since when are you a procrastinator?"

"Since I went one-on-one with Mesogog."

"What?!"

In the Dino Lab, Zeltrax was able to break the shield and grab Elsa. He shot out more lasers and caused the ceiling to collapse on Drina and Raina.

"You're coming with me!" Zeltrax laughed as he pulled the woman with him, sparks flying all around in the wake of the destruction of the lab.

To be continued...

I couldn't find anything that mentioned Elsa's real name from before Mesogog corrupted her, so I'm giving her one. Sorry.
