Tigrana dodged Yuuga's shots, rushing forward and slamming arms repeatedly into the Yellow Ranger. She punched him in the chest and sent him flying, laughing as she did. "DOn't you have anything else up your sleeve outside of those pathetic little lightning bolts? Or are you still afraid to open up to real power!?" she asked, shaking her head before turning to face Harrison. "Let's see if Mean Green can give me more of a challenge."
Behind her, Yelena and Troy teleported in, the two running over to the connected orbs, seeing them starting to close in on their captives. "Jameson, are you alright?" the White Ranger asked.
"No...can't move...feels like...I'm getting....crushed..."
Troy slashed out, his sword bouncing off of the orb. "Shit. Thought that might work."

"Fuck! Troy! You and Yelena keep working! I'm gonna give this chick what she's asking for!" The Green Ranger opted to power up immediately in order to try and help his friends.
"Legendary Source, Mystic Force!" Harrison called out, quickly transforming into his Legendary Ranger form. "Code One! Minotaur Rock Slide!" The Green Ranger summoned an avalanche of rocks, sending all of them at his newest opponent without prejudice.

Tigrana grinned, swinging her glowing arms foward and sending a projection of herself, blasting the rocks and scattering them. She launched forward and slammed a kick toward Harrison's head, twisting and slamming a punch toward his stomach.
Yelena looked at the orbs, biting her lip under her helmet. "Troy, waht do we do?"
"I don't know. THe more we hit them, the tighter they get," Troy said. "We can't cut them, we can't blast them...I don't know. I genuinely don't..."

Harrison went up to block the kick, only to eat a punch to the stomach like cheese grits. "That wasn't fun." The Green Ranger groaned. To counter, he delivered a headbutt to her chest before eventually getting back to being completely vertical and backing up towards Yuuga.
"She's gonna be a problem!"

"Ya think?" Yuuga said as he too morphed into his Legendary Mode. "Code 1 - Thunderbird Missile Strike!" he soon fired his missiles at Tigrana.

"Yellow Boy, do you have anything other then your pansy ass long range!?" Tigrana asked, stomping her foot as a chunk of concrete popped up with a glowing arm under it, blocking most of the shots. One snuck through and hit her shoulder, the orb holding Alison flickering. Se took off running, flipping up and slamming her combined eight fists into the ground, sending a shockwave that knocked the remaining Rangers off their feet.
Alison looked at her orb as it shuddered, adn she got an idea. "Yelena, Troy, forget beating the Orbs to get us out. Get her arms."
Troy looked back at Tigrana, seeing her back to them. "Ali, that's a good idea," he said. "Let's go." He took off with Yelena, slashing out and cutting one of the arms, the Pink Ranger's orb flickering again. Yelena followed, slamming a frosted Staff into Tigrana's shoulder and knocking ALison free.
"Two to go," the White Ranger said. Alison blasted past Yelena, slamming into Tigrana and flinging her up. "ALison!"
Tigrana growled, twisting and slamming a punch into Alison's chest, sending her plummeting into the ground.

"We gotta get to those other arms and spring J!" The Green Ranger slowly got to his feet. "Yuuga, let's give em a hand!" The Green Ranger went back on the attack, this time getting in close before taking aim at those arms.

"No! Fuck Jameson! Get my sister first!" Alison said, slamming her staff into Tigrana's face. "Let him suffer for once!"
"It's fine!" Jameson said, strugglign to move. "Get Alexandra first."
"Fuck that! He's gonna die if you don't get him out!" the Blue Ranger yelled, slamming her hand on the orb. "Ali, please!"
"Shut up! You first!"
Tigrana laughed, spinning out of the way and punching Alison in the face and knocking her to the ground. She yelle as Harrison managed to land a strike to her arms, and she kicked him in the chest. "Little dissention in the ranks/" she asked, giggling as she flipped out of the way of Yuuga's attack.
As the three Rangers argued, Yelena noticed that Alison's suit started to fluctuate, the same happening to Yuuga and Harrison. "SHit. Guys, stop!" she yelled, runing in and blasting Tigrana with a burst of ice, sending her sliding back before she put a wall up. "Do you three feel different?"
Aison slowly got to her feet, seeing her suit fading in and out. "THe fuck's goin' on!?"

"The fuck is this!?" Harrison started to see his suit fluctuate unexpectedly which only added to his stress level after how Alison was behaving.

Yelena sighed, looking at Alison. "You five aren't in sync. Because of what's happening between all of you having this issue with Jameson's less then truthful chats," she said. "The balance between the team is causing you to lose your powers."
"So you're sayin' this is my fault?" Alison asked.
"In part. Because you're throwing everything in Jameson's face of not telling us his powers were going out, and acting like a bitch to him when he tries to talk, yes, you are at fault!" Yelena snapped. "Get your head out of your ass, Alison!"
"Fuck. You. Just cause you're dicking him all the fucking time--" Alison spat.
Tigrana slashed out and caught Troy's shoulder, blasting him in the chest and knocking him out of his armor before bubbling him, slamming him into the wall with Alexandra and Jameson. "You four want to stop hiding!?" she asked.

Harrison sighed as this was a point where he hated being right. He knew that their powers being so deeply tied to Jameson was going to eventually bite them in the ass and what he said to Dahlia about another Ranger not fixing their core problem was proving to be right as well given the team's current disfunction.
"That makes no sense. Because we disagree with how J is moving, we're losing our juice?!" The Green Ranger exclaimed. "We need to get out of here! We're all gonna end up dead if our powers are fading, we're getting our asses smoked and y'all are going back and forth like children!" Harrison tightly gripped his staff, trying to maintain his morph but that was growing increasingly more difficult by the second.

"You five are tied together. Have been since Praxis and my mother created the original wands. It's a definite design flaw," Yelena said. She looked over the ice wall, seeing Troy caught too. "Goddamn it."
"GO! We'll be fine!" Jameson yelled.
"I'm coming back for you, Alex," Alison said, her hands clenched. "Let's go."
Yelena nodded. "Aios." The four Rangers teleported out and landed in the base, seconds before their suits faded away. Yelena sighed as she walked dover to the console, her hands clenching. "Alison. What Jameson did wasn't right, but he's doing what he can to make up for it."
"By lying? Not telling us that his powers were going out? Not telling us all of the truths from his time hopping dimensions and doing God knows what?" the Pink Ranger asked. "He was selfish, and now we're paying for it! Again!"
"And every time he's tried to talk to you since the Dino Steel Rangers were here, you blew him off. I put up with you slugging him in the mouth outside of Troy's bar the other night, but you need to understand something. If you don't get over this and learn he did what he thought was best, even if you five are suffering for it, he did it for the good of the team because he knew everyone worried about him when he first came back," Yelena said. "If you don't overcome this now...Tigrana is going to kill him."
"Good. THen we can get a competent Red Ranger."

"Whoa whoa hold up!" Harrison stepped in between Alison and Yelena as they were arguing. "Maybe we need a minute to breathe because both of y'all are sounding hella reckless by the mouth right now."

"I'm with Harrison on this one!" Yuuga spoke in agreement with the Green Ranger.

"I'm with Harrison on this one!" Yuuga spoke in agreement with the Green Ranger.
"I'm telling her the truth, Harrison," Yelena said, taking a step back. "It isn't my fault she refuses to listen."
"And how many times has he nearly gotten us killed? Amaranth, Silvaria, Nimue, Dahlia. The Hunter, the Four Bastards, Lambda Sentinel? His own fuckin' mother? How many times has he held things back from us?" Alison asked, narrowing her eyes.
"Never if he could avoid it," Dahlia said as she walked in. "You do remember that he died defending you, Alison? HIs own mother ripped hsi heart out of his chest? Or did you forget that?" She walked over to the console, seeing Aios pulling information up. "Him lying and keeping this from all of you wasn't the smartest thing he ever did, but he's done what he could to make up for it."
Yelena sighed softly. "Alison...ever since he came back, he's been haunted by nightmares, ghosts of the past. He tells me bits and pieces, but there's a lot I can't get out of him no matter how hard I try. A lot of it is still too bad for him to talk about. He doesn't tell you guys anything because he doesn't want you worrying about him. He's also worn out and worn down. Nonstop fighting for the last three years, he's exhausted, and no amount of sleep has helped him. All he wants is for the fight to be over and to be able to take a rest. He loves all of us on this team. He carries a weight none of us can even begin to fathom. He needs us, but you're too stubborn to admit that you're as worried about him as te rest of us, and you find it easier to hate him."
Looking away, the Pink Ranger sighed. "You're right. I'd rather hate him for lying and leaving us then give him a fucking chance. It makes it easier..."
"Easier for who?" Yelena asked. "YOu need to ask yourself. If he dies, could you live with the guilt eating your insides away every single day for the rest of your life?"
