"You're welcome. Now off you go, I need the testing data as soon as possible." Sensei said to Lalah, indicating that she needed the data ASAP.
***
While the Rangers were relaxing, Calen was working. His work with Boomteria got him close, but he needed more to be able to save his family and to do that, the Rangers needed to be out of play.
"Glaciar Zero." Calen spoke to his newest creation. "I have a job for you."
"Speak it and it shall be done." Glaciar nodded as he awaited orders.

Leon was back at his quarters, calming down after the whole beat red affair with him going goo goo eyed over Samara. "Dude, really? Get your act together..." Leon said in a hush tone to himself.

"You're welcome. Now off you go, I need the testing data as soon as possible." Sensei said to Lalah, indicating that she needed the data ASAP.
"Not the first time I tested this. I almost lost my hand." Lalah mumbled, suppressing the urge to sigh. Before she entered the Simulation Deck, she looked up at Sensei's direction. "Let me know when we have a new mission. I do not want to be tardy again."

"Again? You've never been tardy before." Sensei responded, perplexed by Lalah's change in behavior.

"Again? You've never been tardy before." Sensei responded, perplexed by Lalah's change in behavior.
Lalah could only sigh. She didn’t intend to slip. "I know. I am surprised as well." She admitted. She had a feeling Sensei would not remember following her next attempt to fix. So she might as well try to mention a little. "But after I spend longer time doing experiments, I lost track of time. I can't lose my friends because of my actions."

"Lalah, what in the hell are you talking about???" Sensei was genuinely confused by all of this talk and it didn't help that Lalah was being very cagey and not giving details.

"Lalah, what in the hell are you talking about???" Sensei was genuinely confused by all of this talk and it didn't help that Lalah was being very cagey and not giving details.
Lalah eventually changed her mind about speaking the truth because she's not sure if she'd be ready to even explain about it. "It's nothing. I'm just rambling nonsense. That's all." She dismissed, quickly going inside the Simulation Deck. Somehow, it might be the only way to distract herself from thinking about her second loop. If she finished her targets fast, would it help her be on time to save her friends?
'Only way to find out,' Lalah thought as she transformed into the Pink Ranger and began using the Chrono Blaze Charger for the second time of her life.

While Lalah was testing the new charger, things were supposed to be chill for the rest of the group. Unfortunately, their time traveling foe had other ideas. The alarm began to blare, prompting Mateo to pop up out of his captain's chair.
"What's wrong?"
"We have an issue." Sensei's virtual head appeared out of the center of the panel. "It looks as if Calen is trying to alter history again." Sensei brought up footage of the event in question. "This is roughly six or seven months prior to when the last mission took place. In this event, the village hidden in the leaves is experiencing heavy snow, preventing a grave issue. Uryuu Sawada, the SRS Blue Ranger during this period was lured into a trap in the form of what they call an A-Ranked mission. This trap led to their Red Ranger's death, eventual resurrection, and the acquisition of a mighty battilizer that contributed by the evil Proto's defeat at the hands of the six SRS Rangers. In this changed scenario, new history shows that Uryuu was the one to die as the Rangers weren't able to aid him. This creates a horrible trickle down effect as this new timeline would involve all of the SRS team dying by Proto's hands along with his seizing of the SRS powers, Dragonis once again alive and Eddie Morrison's death." Sensei finished, laying out how one small change can cause so much damage in the timeline.
Unfortunately for Lalah, the loud sounds that come from her testing drowned out the alarm so she was unable to hear it.

Just like before, Lalah didn't hear the alarm. Unlike before, she counts the minutes, wondering if the alarms actually blared. With a growl, she dodged every attack as she could, refusing to rely on the Chrono Blaze Charger. But the moment she was knocked back down, she realized she's going to have to.
Mustered enough strength to stand, the Pink Ranger pressed down on a button on the negative side of the Chrono Blaze Charger before inserting it into her Storm Morpher. Then she leaped forward, blasting her targets in a blazing fashion.

Tthe alarm went off. Leon rushed to the command area and overheard what Sensei was saying. "So we just saved those guys and now he went back further? This guys the epitome of the phrase "If at first you don't succeed, yada yada.... You know the rest." Leon said shaking his head.

"Your last mission mostly saved the Aura Strikers, but you have the general premise right." Sensei spoke up with the partial correction, given that the last mission only had Boomteria tasked with delaying the ninja team, not killing them. "Calen's tactics are considerably different compared to other villains of record throughout history. Whether it was the assault on SPD's Rangers, the delaying of SRS and now delaying most of SRS again, his actions are consistent with his blaming his tragic future on the Power Rangers yet not knowing which exact Ranger group to focus on."
"But he hasn't tried to hurt any civilians, really." Mateo admitted. "I just wish we knew what actually happened so we can put an end to this."

"Not a way we can search for that? Wouldn't he have a history? I mean if he can find us, we can find him through history can't we?" Leon asked.

"Nope. He can't find us in the time stream and unfortunately, his lineage is so murky, it's been difficult for the TMB to pin him down." Sensei responded.
"Either way, we need to get a move on before the Hidden Leaf gets its own Konoha." Mateo said to the rest of the team.

Lalah found it annoying that she's struggling again. With every target worse than the first time, she didn't know how to end that session quick. As she got up from being slammed against the wall, she quickly picked up the Chrono Blaze Charger and tried to fire off against them.
"Why can't I hear the alarm? It should be going off by now. Unless..." She suddenly realized, speaking aloud. "I can't hear anything because the Simulation Deck. It serves as its surround sound. I just have to turn it off. Sorry Sensei, but this session will be put off hold." She flipped back enough to look for the controls. When she did, she switched directions and leaped over the targets, enough to arrive at her destination to turn it off.

From here, everything went as it did during the previous loop, all from everyone dying just as they did before. Even with Lalah picking up on the alarm issue sooner, her failure to communicate properly with the team set them on the same path as before.
Glaciar looked up and saw Leon heading towards him. The savage beast lunged into the air to meet the Green Ranger head on, using his claws to impale the swordsman in mid air before landing on the ground. Glaciar flicked Leon away like someone would flick dirt off of their finger before roaring aloud.
"No!!!!!" Mateo shouted in horror. He saw the massive hole in Leon's chest, seeing that the Green Ranger was now also dead. "You're gonna pay for this!" The Red Ranger ran at Glaciar with sword and T-Rex Smasher in the other, enraged and desperate to kill this beast.
