"Never did in the first place!" Alison said, swinging out and blasting a few grunts away. She whipped up a tornado, sending it down the street into the crowd. "Alex!"
Alexandra swirled her staff, sending a torrent of water into the torndao, washing more Buglings and Coronites down the street.
"Gramps!" JT, still feeling sore after being attacked seemed to react to Jaxon's untimely beatdown.
"This is getting us nowhere. Yuuga, Troy, let's light him up!" Jameson's powers fading was not lost on him. As much as he wanted to react, he knew that if he dwelled on it too much, J's secret would get out. The Green Ranger's staff began to glow as he was gearing up for a bigger attack. "NATURE'S FRENZY!" Harrison opened fire with a slew of vines and rocks emerging from the ground, all aimed at Shadraxis and Ezzrith.
Ezzright swung out and slashed through the vines, dodging a shot from Troy before clashing with the Swordsman. He laughed, dragging his claws over Troy's Wolf Saber, drawing his hand back before punching Troy in the face, slashing out and knocking his shield away. He kicked the Knight in the chest, knocking him to the ground.
Shadraxis growled, dodging Yuuga's lightning before rushing for JT, slamming his fist into the young Red Ranger's side. "You're all that's left, little girl!" he said, slashing out.
Aaron looked over at Yelena, addressing her next. "We need your man back on his feet, however you've gotta do it." He said to his fellow ice user, knowing they've gotta stop these two quickly, especially Shadraxis with his sealing jutsu.
Yelena got to her feet and nodded, running over to Jameson. She turned him over, checking his pulse. "Jameson, please...wake up," she said. She grabbed her Staff, placing it against his chest and sending a blast of cold through him, shocking his system. "Jameson!"
The Red Ranger gasped and sat up, looking at Yelena. "Yelena...what happened?"
"Your powers gave out," she said, helping him up. "You need to get back in there. Shadraxis has sealed your friends powers, and hes going after the little one."
"Oh, don't let her hear you call her that," Jameson said. "I was gonna tell you about my magic...I'm sorry..." He took his Mosa Blaster in hand, firing at the Coronites. "Get everyone gathered. We're getting out of here soon. We can't risk JT getting sealed either."
As if on cue, a blast of black fire and lightning filled the street, blasting the Rangers in all directions as the Overseer stood tall. "Well, if it isn't my most hated enemies. I hope you've all missed me. I"m going to enjoy killing you this time!"
"You couldn't last time, asshole!" Kida said, facing the Overseer with Rina. "You think you can, I'll rip your throat out!"
Overseer laughed, holding his hands out and blasting everyone backward.

As JT was flying backwards, she felt her momentum being stopped before coming to rest. She turned around to see Aaron dashing over to her, catching her and taking the brunt of the impact on the ground.
"Frosty!" The young Ranger shouted!.
"I'm right here!" Aaron groaned. "I'm not deaf." He said, jokingly scolding the Red Ranger. "You good?"
"I will be." She smiled underneath her helmet, hunting that she wasn't as mad as she was about an hour ago.
Harrison sat up after being blasted to the ground. He looked over to see Jameson was awake again, giving them some semblance of hope. "Okay, whatever your plan B is, now would be a great time to play it!"

Before Jaxon could think straight, the Overseer showed up and blasted all the rangers back with tremendous power. "Just when I thought I'd never see your ugly ass face again..." Jaxon said as he was slow to get up as he was holding his arm due to the wound from Shadraxis. Luckily, his animal spirit was doing a good job of keeping it at bay. "Alright, whose ass do we have to kick to send your Jason Vs Freddy looking ass back to the hell hole you crawled out of?" Jaxon stated.

Jameson looked at the Overseer before looking at Harrison. He looked around at the thirteen Rangers, seeing them all in various states of wounds and powers. "Fall back," he said, looking at Harrison. "Fall back and we'll regroup."
"Seriously!?" Kida asked, spinning ot look at Jameson. "Are you seriously sounding that!?"
"Yes!" Jameson said. "Everyone fall back! Dahlia!"
"Mass transport!" the witch said, recalling every Ranger back to the base.
The Overseer growled, picking a car up and flinging it, the vehicle sailing through Jameson as he teleported away last.

The Rangers landed back in the Command Base, Jameson huffing and sitting against the wall. "Alison, Alexandra--"
"First aid, got it," the sisters said, grabbing the kits. "Wounded line up!"
"Give me your morphers," Dahlia said, looking at the guests. "I'll see if I can't find a way to work around this Jutsu. And Jameson, taht thing you asked me about is ready."
"Thanks, Dahlia. You're a dear," Jameson said, putting his hand on his chest.
Kida sighed, taking hers and Rina's SPD Morphers and setting them on the console, Mayumi tossing her Shuriken and Battle Morpher over.
Yelena walked over and knelt beside Jameson, taking hsi hand and putting her other one on his cheek. "Jameson...what's wrong?"

Yuuga winced from the attack and was teleported back to the Base along with the others, "Damn... should've seen this coming!" he said as he slumped against the wall.

Still fighting through the pain, Aaron tossed his Battle Morpher and Nin Shuriken over to Dahlia before finding somewhere he could lean against and took several breaths, processing the pain while others who needed treatment desperately would take priority.
JT walked over to the Gold Ranger, favoring her back after being kicked in it so many times. "I swear I'm gonna gut that fucker like a fish!"
Harrison walked past the young Ranger who was sitting down, trying to rest when he came across her in one of her more aggressive rants. "We got our assed kicked out there. "But it was weird though. They didn't seem to be targeting J but rather the visitors." He said as he popped a 'special' gummy in his mouth before he got to chewing.

"Makes sense tactically," Rina said, folding her arms and looking at Harrison. "Why face five different teams powers when you can just face two?"
"How do you get five?" Kida asked.
"Mystic Force, Beast Rush, SPD, SRS, and Lightning Sting. Yes, the two SPD are from different Earths, but it's still the same powers," rina said. "So, five."
"Someone want to explain Jameson's power glitch?" Alison asked. "And on that same note, why the fuck can't we do our own thing on our own? Mythic Mode would have been clutch as hell, but Red Boy was on his face in the dirt and we couldn't do fuck all." She wrapped a bandage around Mayumi's arm, moving over to JT.
"I don't know why everything goes through me," Jameson said. "NEver did understand that...but as for my powers...I was hoping to avoid this until I needed to talk about it, but today's forcing my hand." He sighed, rubbing his hand over his face. "Whatever happened to me to yank me away to the other Earth and get stuck for two years, being a Dino Steel Ranger...whatever forces pulled me, the return trip started shorting out my magic. I'm losing my powers."

The normally chatty Harrison was uncharacteristically silent. He shared Allison's concerns about not being able to use the best of his powers without Jameson there but also knew of Jameson's power issue and felt bad for knowing this could happen and not stopping him from going out there or at least saying something.
"But how?" JT asked, wincing when she tried to move too quickly. "Seven of us moved through the multiverse for the same fight but nobody else appears to be having issues with their powers." The young Ranger looked around the room at her former teammates, none of them showing the same symptoms as Jameson.
"There has to be something else at play." Aaron looked up at the red wizard and folded his arms. "What else are you not telling us? It would be nice to know so we don't get blindsided in the field again." The Gold Ranger stated, visibly less than happy with this revelation.

"If it's any help, I'm working on a spell that might divide all the powers up between everyone," Dahlia said. "THat way if Jameson's out of a fight, you'll still have Legendary and Mythic Modes."
Jameson sighed, running his hand in his hair. "Ever since we said goodbye in the Command Center that day, something hasn't felt right. All of you were able to go home to basically the same time frames, right?"
"I was a couple of days out from when I got portaled," Kida said.
"Same," Rina said.
"I came back and it was two years. Everyone had moved on, gotten on with their lives. I showed up, everyone crowded me in the bar, hugs and drinks and "What the hell!?" and more then a few times I was on the floor," Jameson said, Alexandra laughing. "But what I didn't know was that I brought something back with me. Apparently, floating around the Multiverse, were a group of dragons, the Balaur Syndicate. They piggybacked and I brought them back."
"Ok, so you brought a fresh enemy to fight. What does that have to do with your powers?" Mayumi asked.
"I don't know. I don't know if does or not," Jameson said.
"When did you first start noticing the power flucutations and why didn't you say anything?" Dahlia asked
"After Harrison and I got back from the Dino Steel Earth. I thouht it was just a glitch, that I hadn't used my Mystic Force powers for two years being trapped on another Earth, and my magic needed to replenish. But the more fights we got into, the more I started noticing a pattern. We fight, I go big and I get exhausted when we're done. There's been a couple of times I've barely stood after using my Phoenix Incinerator," the Red Ranger said. "I thought I could get a handle on it, but....didn't work out that way."

"So you've known something was off for a while and kept it to yourself." Aaron spoke up, keeping his tone low, sprinkling in some clear disappointment. "Today or these past few months since you've back, you've consistently put your team in harm's way without even as much as a conversation and that's not even counting you dragging the six of us from our worlds, having us risk our lives without all of the necessary intel. It's a miracle we're still alive."
"Hey! Cut him some slack!" Harrison walked over to Aaron, immediately jumping to Jameson's defense. "He's just doing what he thought was right!"
"Yeah and look where that got us." Aaron countered, looking at all of the injured Rangers spread around this base, not wavering from his position.

"Guys! Guys! Come on, let's not fight okay?" Yuuga spoke coming in between the Harrison and Aaron.

"For once, I agree with Aaron." Jaxon said as he kept hush after hearing the arguments and facts being thrown around before handing his morpher over. "Harrison, right? Let me give you a scenario. You go and fight. Something happens to you. You don't know what it is. You don't know how it's happening. What you do know is that it may affect your powers or your team's powers. Would you hide the fact that you actually know something about it while running the risk of your team getting seriously injured or killed?" Jaxon stated

"Yuuga," Jameson said, looking at his Yellow Ranger. "Back down. Aaron's right. I knew, and I deliberately hid it. I didn't intend for you five to get hurt today, Aaron. That was never the intention. I hoped we'd work and get the Overseer dead again and we'd celebrate, but instead, we're dealing with a shinobi that seals powers and my own stupidity." He sighed, running his hand in his hair. "I'm sorry, everyone. My team, for not telling you what was going on, and you six for drgging you into this..."
Yelena walked over and put her hand on Jameson's arm. "It's going to be ok. Dahlia's goign to find a way to unseal their powers, and we'll find a way to take down the Overseer."
"Well, we've all got these," Kida said, holding up her Dino Soul. "All else fails..."

"Well, we've all got these," Kida said, holding up her Dino Soul. "All else fails..."
"I was hoping you wouldn't say that." JT sighed.
"You'll survive one more day in Pink, Princess." Aaron fought the urge to smirk, knowing her love/hate relationship with that color. "Besides, Snow White has the right idea. We need to figure out how to put down the Overseer and make sure he stays down this time."
Even though he didn't want to admit it, Jaxon was right. What was even worse for Harrison was that he had gone through something similar where his lack of communication almost got the team killed but he didn't want to pile on his good brother. Thankfully, the topic was quickly shifting to something everyone could agree on.

"Acutally? I don't mind being blue again. That and I think that after one more year in my world, I might go back to Dino Steel world and start a private Pai Zhuq school." Jaxon stated.
