It's here! It's here! The Wedding! We're gonna do The Wedding of Zedd and Rita, and then… the MOVIE! Oh I'm so excited! Because these episodes are mostly about Zedd and Rita getting married, I put the first two episodes of it in this chapter, and the third episode will get its own chapter. We've had a ton of two-parter episodes lately, and the movie's gonna be two, maybe three, and there's a couple more coming up, so I'm trying not to do too many all at once.

Also be proud of me, I wrote this last week so I would be AHEAD. Now if only I could get myself to do that all the time…

Thank you to Disneyfan10, brankel1, Alex B. Goode, and FallenArcana for your awesome comments! I hope you all like this chapter!

Jamie sat in her seat, next to Billy and in front of Adam, sketching a picture in her notebook as she waited for Mr. Kaplan to speak. He'd come into the classroom mid-lecture, and had been talking with Mrs. Applebee for the last several minutes.

"What do you think this is about?" Adam whispered, leaning forward so Jamie could hear him.

"No clue," Jamie said, leaning back in her seat.

"Hey, that's really good!" Adam said, looking at the drawing on her desk; it was of the command center, all confident, sketched out lines. She had some pens next to her, to put some color into the consoles, and Zordon's tube. She hadn't drawn his face, yet, but Alpha had already been drawn next to the viewing globe.

"Thanks," Jamie blushed.

"Class," Mr. Kaplan started, gaining the class's attention. "I am delighted to announce that Angel Grove High has been picked as Teen Exchange Speakers to represent the United States in Australia!"

The class clapped, easily recognizing the honor that had been bestowed upon them. And not only that, but the Rangers themselves got to go! After talking with their parents, they were all allowed to go, and then a conversation with Zordon had ensued.

He was very proud of his Rangers, and, seeing as they'd only be gone a week, he could just teleport them back if there was any trouble instead of creating an all-new team of Rangers.

"Alright, you guys ready?" Ernie asked; he'd been the one to drive the Rangers, and Bulk and Skull, to the train station. It had been a few days, giving everyone time to get their tickets and get packed.

"Yeah!"

"Yep!"

"Alright, the train will be here shortly to take you to the airport," Ernie said, "And, do me a favor? Keep an eye on Bulk and Skull? And don't forget! Send me a postcard from Australia!"

"Definitely," Kimberly said.

"Have a safe trip, guys, you take care," Ernie said, finally turning to leave.

"Bye!" Kimberly and Jamie chorused.

"See ya, Ernie," Tommy waved.

"Wow, man, this is so cool," Rocky said.

"I've never been on a plane, before," Jamie said. Her dad had offered to fly her out to New York a few times, but she'd never taken him up on his offer. She hadn't even told him about the trip, knowing he would ambush her at the airport if he knew they were going to have a layover in New York for a few hours.

"Yeah, and getting to go to Australia!" Adam added.

"I'm glad Zordon informed us that this trip coincides with Zedd's 100 year recharge," Billy added.

"Yeah," Tommy laughed, "Too bad he couldn't stay asleep for 100 years."

"Well, at least we know there won't be any trouble while we're gone," Aisha said with a grin.

"I just hope that nothing interferes with my shopping," Kimberly said, "I hear the stores are really incredible."

"Really?" Aisha asked.

"Yes!" Kimberly said it very excitedly.

"She's been talking about it since we found out about the trip," Jamie said with a grin. "Somehow roped me into going with her." She widened her eyes. "I will give you ten dollars right now to go with and help me keep her reigned in."

"Wow," Aisha said with a laugh, "Cool." The guys laughed, picturing their Yellow and Silver Rangers physically holding the Pink Ranger down to keep her from shopping.

"I'm just glad Coach let me miss practice for this," Jamie added.

"With the championship game in a few weeks, I'm surprised she let you go, too," Rocky said. "How'd you do it?"

"It took a lot of begging," Jamie answered. "I'm think I might have agreed to help clean the bleachers when I get back."

The others laughed.

"Hey Bulkie," Skull said. When Bulk answered with a single grunt, he went on, "Is this train going to take us all the way to Australia?"

"No, dimwit, the train takes us the airport," Bulk answered, very much wondering how he managed to become best friends with such an idiot. "And just our luck to be stuck in the same group as the goodie-goodie-goods."

"Yeah," Skull agreed, "We'll ditch 'em when we get there!"

The train came soon, and picked the group up. Once it dropped them off at the airport, they took a plane to New York, where they had a four-hour layover. Sitting in a chair with her brand new sketchbook in her lap, Jamie glanced up at Kimberly and Tommy sitting across from her. Kimberly was leaning on Tommy while reading a book, and he had his arm around her shoulders loosely while he talked to Rocky on his other side.

As she sketched, Jamie glanced up at them periodically, lines becoming connected and making shapes on the page.

"You're really good," Adam said, sitting next to her.

"Thanks," Jamie said, pausing in her sketching to glance up at him. She began to sketch in their details, their faces and hair coming first, and then their clothing, until she had a really good, almost 3D looking sketch of her friends.

"You ever think about going into art as a career?" Adam asked as she sketched in the finishing touches.

Jamie shrugged. "If I thought I could make money off it, maybe I would, but what I really want is to become a teacher."

"An art teacher?" Adam guessed.

Jamie smiled at him. "Yeah, and maybe a soccer coach."

"You'd be great at both," the Black Ranger said. Jamie blushed.

When they finally got to get onto their plane to Australia, Jamie sat next to Adam, and the two talked nearly the entire flight. When it got dark and the flight attendants passed out blankets, and Jamie fell asleep with her head on Adam's shoulder, he didn't seem to mind, merely laying his head on top of hers and falling asleep himself.

They landed in Australia around midmorning the next morning, and Jamie couldn't be more excited. They were in Australia!

They dropped their bags off at the hotel they would be staying at, and then the sight-seeing began! Somehow, the girls ended up with stuffed kangaroos pretty quickly, and Jamie stashed hers in her cross-body purse, it's little head peeking out of her bag.

Finally deciding to stop for an early dinner, the Rangers sat down at a restaurant with a beautiful view of the coast and the Sydney Opera House as they ate.

A sudden, loud noise caught their attention, and when they looked outside, the sky was flashing.

"What in the world…" Jamie asked, trailing off as she watched the sky.

"Hey, I wonder what that was," Tommy said, turning to look at his team.

"I don't know…" Rocky answered.

"Should we be concerned?" Adam asked.

"Well, Zordon said he'd contact us if there were any problems, right?" Kimberly asked, eyebrows furrowed in concern.

"Hey," Aisha said, quickly changing the subject. "The only problem I see is how we're going to get all these souvenirs home." She picked up the koala plush Rocky had gotten for her.

"How about a tugboat?" Rocky joked. Everyone laughed; with how many things they had already bought on the first day, it was possible they would need one.

"And to think," Jamie said, "I promised Aiden I'd bring him back something."

The others laughed again.

The next day, they met up with a tour guide. She took them around Sydney a little bit, letting them do a little shopping as they did.

"Okay, kids, we don't have much time to shop," she said. "So let's meet back here in two hours."

"Two hours, to be back here," Tommy said, shaking his head; clearly, the tour guide didn't understand how much shopping meant to his girlfriend.

"Guys, I just love Australia," Kimberly said, sitting on the table of a picnic table. "The shops here are so cool."

"Yeah, but if you keep shopping, you'll end up taking Australia home with us," Tommy said.

Kimberly took the joke as it was, smiling widely at her boyfriend.

"Alright, we better get going," she said. "I gotta buy presents for my mom, my brother, my Uncle Steve…" she was cut off when her communicator beeped. "I knew that was going to happen."

Tommy glanced around, and, seeing as no one was paying the group of friends any attention, raised his wrist up to his mouth, "What's up, Zordon?"

"Rangers, this is Alpha; listen up! Morph and teleport to the abandoned Specter Theater in downtown Angel Grove! Once there, wait for further instructions!" The Rangers all looked at each other; this was kind of a strange order, but Alpha wouldn't lead them astray.

"Alpha?" Bill asked, "Is everything alright?" The Blue Ranger couldn't explain it, but he had a really bad feeling. "Alpha? Alpha!" when he got no answer, Billy turned to the others. "Something's not right, guys."

"Alpha, are you okay?" Rocky tried.

"Alpha, come in," Billy said.

"Alpha, come on, you're really freaking us out," Jamie said into her own communicator, but she, too, got no response.

"Rangers! This is an emergency! I will contact you as soon as I can!"

"Alpha sounds kind of weird," Aisha said.

"Maybe he's just worried," Adam said, his arms crossed, although he looked just as worried as the others.

"Alright, we better go," Kimberly said, gathering her bags as she did.

"We'll morph on the way," Tommy said, leading them to a secluded spot he'd seen earlier.

"It's Morphin' Time! White Tiger!"

"Mastodon!"

"Pterodactyl!"

"Megaladon!"

"Triceratops!"

"Saber-Toothed Tiger!"

"Tyrannosaurus!"

Now morphed, the Rangers teleported to the Specter Theater, a building that had been long abandoned. It looked every inch of haunted that it probably was, and it gave Jamie the creeps.

"Woah," Kimberly said, "This place is creepy!"

"Yeah, in a big way," Aisha agreed.

"I hope we don't have to stay here too long, this place is definitely haunted," Jamie added.

"Would somebody please tell me what we're doing in this weird place?" Aisha asked, looking around. Outside, they could hear thunder and the crack of lightening.

"I guess we're just gonna have to wait to hear from Alpha, you guys," Tommy said. He didn't like it any more than the rest of them did, but it was what they had to do.

They walked around together, not wanting to split up. Suddenly, the doors began to slam shut with loud bangs.

"I told you this place was haunted!" Jamie shrieked.

"What's going on?!" Kimberly demanded, looking around wildly.

"Come in, Alpha," Tommy said, raising his wrist up. "Alpha! Alpha, do you read me?" Hitting the communicator on his wrist, Tommy tried to make it work, but nothing wanted to go through.

"It's no use, Tommy," Kimberly said.

"Yeah," Billy agreed, "You've been at it for a long time."

"Something must have happened to Alpha!" Aisha said.

"So what do you think we should do?" Rocky asked.

"Should we go to the Command Center, check on him there?" Jamie asked. She was really worried about Alpha, and the others could hear it in her voice.

"Alpha told us to stay put," Adam reminded them, "He must have had a reason."

"Okay, we'll give it a little longer," Tommy decided. The others agreed, albeit a little reluctantly.

"This way, guys," Tommy said, leading his Rangers towards what he hoped was an exit. Or at least something that could give him answers.

"I don't know, Tommy, something's not right here," Rocky said cautiously.

"Yeah, we've been here for almost an hour, and haven't heard a single word from Alpha!" Adam agreed.

"Maybe we should just stay put," Aisha said.

"That might be the best option," Billy said.

"We'll stay here and keep an eye on things," Tommy said. He full heartedly believed that Alpha wouldn't do anything to hurt them, and if he said they needed to stay at the Theater, then they would stay there.

"Woah, you feel that?!" Rocky asked as a sudden breeze began to blow through the Theater.

"What it is?" Adam asked, surprised that there was a random breeze inside of a building.

"Well, it's old and abandoned," Jamie said, "There's probably a hole in a wall or a broken window or something, and we're feeling a breeze from outside." She tried to stay logical the longer they stayed in the building; the fact that they were in a totally haunted building freaked her out, so staying logical was the only thing keeping her from going completely crazy.

"It's getting stronger," Kimberly noted.

"It seems to be focused right…" a sudden flash of light revealed a monster, "There!"

Two more appeared on their other side, all three of them monsters they'd dealt with before.

"We've got no room to maneuver up here, guys!" Tommy exclaimed. "Alright Rangers, everyone down on the deck! Ready? Go!" With that order, the Rangers jumped down to the main lobby of the Theater, where the monsters met up with them.

"How nice to see you again!" exclaimed one monster covered with eyes.

"I just love cheerful reunions!" an armadillo monster added.

"You remember me, don't you?!" A bee monster continued.

"Say monsters, let's sing them a song!" the last monster, this one a raven looking thing, said. Seconds later, a song like what would play during a carousel, began to play.

"There's too many of them!" Tommy exclaimed. "Let's teleport out!"

"Right!"

The Rangers put their hands to their morphers, but when they tried to teleport out, their morphers only fizzled out, leaving them there.

"Something's wrong!" Adam realized, "It's not working, Tommy!"

"What's up with that song?" Tommy asked, desperately trying to figure out what to do.

"We're going to have to fight them all!" Kimberly exclaimed, "Call on your weapons!"

"Power Katana!" Jamie called, but her sword never appeared in her hands. "Damnit, what is this place?!"

"Seven little rangers, they're all doomed!" the monsters sang. A few more appeared, so there were now seven monsters.

"What're we gonna do?!" Kimberly asked.

Tommy didn't have an answer for her.

"Bop-bop-sha-day, bop-bop-sha-doo, gonna make a Ranger stew!" the monsters continued to sing, circling the Rangers.

"Without our weapons, the only thing we can do is split up and try to wear them down," Billy said. "We gotta go on the attack!"

"Right!" the others agreed.

"Bop-bop-sha-day, bop-bop-sha-do, the time has come for the Rangers' due!"

"Billy's right, guys," Tommy said, "Let's get 'em!"

The Rangers split up, each taking on a monster. The one Jamie took on appeared to be modeled off a car, with wheels up by its' head down by its' feet.

She seemed to be pretty evenly matched with the thing, until it managed to through her off him and to the ground.

"Little Silver Ranger, I thought you were better than that!" the monster laughed, taunting her as she stood back up.

"Shouldn't you be in an impound lot somewhere?" Jamie shot back, wishing she could get some help. But everyone else was busy with their own monsters, so, for now, she was on her own.

Getting sent to the ground again, Jamie growled as she pushed herself.

"This is getting ridiculous!" she exclaimed, feeling the pain from where the car monster had smacked her on the shoulder.

"You're telling me," Kimberly said, rushing over to help her up. "We gotta keep fighting though!"

"I know," Jamie said, jumping back into the fight with the car monster while Kimberly did the same with green monster that looked like it had a mohawk.

"Aisha!" Kimberly yelled, and everyone looked up. Aisha was in one of the privet boxes, fighting the monster covered in eyes. Suddenly, it grabbed her and threw her to the ground below.

"Aisha, are you hurt?!" Tommy asked, pulling the Yellow Ranger to her feet.

"No," Aisha answered, backing up. The Rangers had all regrouped, the monsters too strong for them.

"Come on, fellow monsters! Let's strike all at once and finish them!" the armadillo monster laughed.

"No, they have to be one piece!" the bee monster exclaimed, "They're Rita's wedding present to Zedd, remember?!"

"Lord Zedd surely won't mind if a few pieces are missing!" the raven monster said, eager to rip the Rangers to shreds, even if it was just a little bit.

"So that's what this is all about," Aisha said, "Rita and Zedd are getting married!"

"I thought Zedd ran Rita out," Jamie said, confused; she'd been told that Zedd had essentially kicked Rita out of the castle on the moon. "Why would he marry her?"

"It was bad enough having one evil lunatic on the moon," Tommy said.

"Guys, none of this is going to make a difference if we don't get away from these monsters," Billy said.

"Hey, what about that hidden stairwell we found a while back?" Kimberly suggested; she was out of breath, as all of them were.

"Good idea," Tommy praised, "We'll all split up and meet up there, later. Let's go!"

Splitting up had allowed the Rangers to escape from the monsters, and soon enough they met up again.

"Keep moving, guys, those monsters could be right behind us," Tommy said.

"This way, guys!" Adam exclaimed, opening a door he found and stepping through.

"Take it slow, everyone," instructed Tommy, "And be as quite as you can."

"The monsters are blocking the main entrance," Billy said, "So logically, there's gotta be another way out."

"You'd think there'd be a fire exit somewhere," Jamie said, looking around. There were cobwebs everywhere, and she lifted her hand to wipe one off her helmet as they walked.

"Don't worry, we're headed the right way," Adam said, just in time for two monsters to appear in front of them.

"Oh, yeah? Well I think we should be going the other way!" Billy exclaimed, and the team turned and ran.

"Wait, powerless Rangers!" the armadillo monster yelled.

"We only wanna play!" the goat monster added.

Jamie didn't want to know what their version of playing meant, and instead of finding out, she just ran.

"Look, a lower level," Billy said, taking a few steps down a staircase he had found. "Guys! This could be the way out we've been looking for!"

"Alright, we'll check it out!" Tommy called back, "Everybody just keep your eyes peeled."

"Can't be any worse than what's behind us," Aisha said.

Jamie couldn't agree more.

"We're in a cave underneath the Theater," Billy said; sure enough, the area under the Theater seemed to be an underground area.

"I wonder if they used it to store stuff," Jamie said, looking around at the posts that held the weight of the Theater above them.

"This way, guys, I see a light," Tommy said, waving his hand as he headed towards the light he had spotted.

"I can hear the monsters behind us," Aisha said, the last to follow Tommy through the corridor he was leading them down.

"Hey, fresh air!" Tommy exclaimed as they came up on what looked like the mouth of the cave. "We did it, guys, we're free!"

"Oh, thank God," Jamie said as they finally exited the cave.

"We gotta get clear of the Theater, and then try our powers again!"

It had been made pretty clear while they were in there that the Theater itself was in a spot where, for some reason, the Rangers didn't have access to their powers. Why they had even stayed morphed was a mystery

Suddenly, two explosions revealed the armadillo and the raven had both grown to ginormous sizes.

"Alright, guys, let's do our thing," Rocky said, "We need Megazord power, NOW!"

The Rangers called on their Thunderzords, quickly creating the Thunder Megazord. Tommy called for the White Tigerzord as well, to make things even, changing it to Warrior Mode.

While Tommy took on the raven monster, Peckster, the Thunder Megazord went head to head with the armadillo, Rhinoblaster. Each time Tommy landed a hit on Peckster, Rhinoblaster would take revenge by hitting the Thunder Megazord.

"No serious damage," Adam reported.

"Well then, let's try again!" Rocky exclaimed, righting the Megazord, but they got punched back suddenly.

"What happened?!" Jamie exclaimed, surprised to find that all of them had been knocked from their seats and into each other.

"All power levels to the shields suddenly went down!" Adam exclaimed in surprise. "The reactor took a major hit!"

"Is everyone alright?" Rocky asked. Before he could be answered, more powerful attacks hit them and Tommy.

"The reactor's gone!" Rocky exclaimed. "All our power is gone! Emergency Eject! Everyone out!"

As the Rangers ejected, they found themselves pulled into another teleport. And when it faded, they were back in the Theater.

"Oh great," Jamie said, "We're back here again."

"Not this creepy place, again," Aisha said in annoyance.

"How did we get back here?" Kimberly asked.

"It felt as though we were teleported," Billy said.

"But that's impossible!" Rocky exclaimed. The only ones who could teleport them were themselves, Alpha, and Zordon. They certainly wouldn't have sent themselves here, and neither would Alpha or Zordon; what was going on?!

"Alpha, Zordon, do you read me?" Billy paced back and forth in front of the main staircase, wrist raised to his mouth, as the other Ranger sat on the stairs, watching him. They'd all tried to get through, but none of them seemed to be able to. "Come in! Alpha, Zordon, this is an emergency!"

"Nothing," Rocky muttered.

"You guys, I'm really worried," Kimberly said. "Something must have happened!"

"We never should have gone on that trip," Jamie said miserably.

"It doesn't make sense!" Adam exclaimed.

"Don't get down, everybody," Tommy said, trying to cheer his team up. "Remember, there's strength in numbers!"

"Right!"

"Yeah!"

"What about the Zords, you guys, what happened to them?" Kimberly asked.

"It was like someone switched the power switch off!" Tommy answered.

Suddenly, Peckster and Rhinoblaster appeared in front of them.

"Oh, if it isn't Lord Zedd's wedding present, all wrapped and ready to go!"

"Gah, not you two again," Billy said, annoyance lining his voice.

"We'll be right outside the door if you need us!" with that, the two monsters disappeared in a flash of light.

"Wonder what that was about," Jamie said, crossing her arms over her knees as she leaned forward.

"Probably they were sent to guard us," Kimberly said dryly. "How are we going to get out of here with those two right outside the door?"

"Yeah, and if we do get out, how do we keep Zedd from sending us back?" Adam added.

"We've been in worse spots," Tommy reminded them, "We just need to stick together, guys!"

"Right!"

"Yeah, let's hang in there!"

"We can do it!"
