The next morning, Sapphire woke up and went downstairs to have some breakfast. When she entered the living room she noticed the ominous silence. “Mr. Grandruler! Principal Celestia!” she called.

No response.

"Where is everybody?" She thought. She looked all around the house and found no sign of them. That’s when Twilight’s talking dog, Spike and Krysta, Lightning's talking pet robin came up to them.

"Spike, Krysta, have you guys seen Lightning and the others?" Spike and Krysta shook their heads.

"They weren’t there when we woke up either. This isn't like them. Where could they have gone?" Krysta asked.

Just then, a big screen appeared in front of Canterlot High and everybody could see and hear it. Nacluv appeared on the screen. Sapphire shivered at the sight of him while Spike growled. “What does he want?” He snarled.

"Greetings people of Mystic Island. We have your little rangers and their team mentor." Nacluv began. The screen changed to see Twilight, Lightning, Sunset Shimmer and the rest of the team, including Mr. Grandruler and Principal Celestia! They were all tied to the outside of the rocket with thick chains.

“Lightning!” Krysta cried.

“Twilight!“ Spike added.

"If you ever want to see them again, meet me in the cave at the Hawaiian Island.....if you dare!" The video ended. The people were in a mass panic! Spike, Krysta and Sapphire knew this was bad without the rangers, Mystic Island is defenseless. "Not good!" Spike said, How did they even kidnapped them?"

"They must have snuck into their homes and the mansion then nabbed them while they were asleep." Krysta said, "Now what?"

"Don't worry, they have their morphers, so they should be fine." Spike reassured.

"Uh, you mean the morphers I found on the mansion floor,right?" Sapphire asked.

"Oh no! They don't have their powers. That's so not good." Krysta said.

"What do we do now?" Spike asked in panic.

"We'll have to rescue them." Krysta said.

"How? We don't have the powers we need to rescue them or fight those monsters!" While Spike and Krysta argued, they suddenly heard Sapphire speak up, "I'll do it"

"Huh?" they both asked.

"I'll go to the Hawaiian Island and rescue my friends." she added.

"WHAT?! Sapphire you can't! You almost got creamed the last time if you didn’t call your raptors. It too dangerous!" Krysta objected.

"I know, but it’s a risk I’ll just have to take. If we don’t do something our friends are goners." Spike and Krysta saw that there was no way to talk her out of this.

"Then we're going with you." Spike said.

"Us too." A voice added. Krysta, Spike and Comet turned and see Vice Principal Luna, Celestia's sister and Celesto's sister-in-law, Cadence and Shining Armor, Celestia and Celesto's niece and nephew. "We wanna help too. No creep is going to threaten my family." Luna said. Cadence and Shining Armor agreed.

"Right! Let's go!" Krysta said.


Soon, the friends all arrived at Hawaiian Island, by flying Celesto's limo that turned into a rocket. Luna landed the rocket-car and they all exited. Looking at the ominously, quiet environment. "Creepy” Cadence complimented.

"Come on let's go find the cave and rescue our friends!" Spike announced. The friends all cheered and dashed off. Racing down the beach they saw the cave Nacluv was talking about. They also heard some voices and entered, tracking the voices lead them to a large cavern, the group saw their friends and the monsters. They peeked in and listened.

"Finally, we'll get rid of these pests for good!" Marla declared.

"You won't get away with this!" Mr. Grandruler sneered.

"We've already have, nobody's coming to save you. They won't even know what happened to you..... once we launch you into space!" Nacluv exclaimed.

Cadence, Luna, Shining Armor, Spike, Kyrsta and Sapphire gasped in horror.

Marla pressed a button on the control panel and a timer appeared starting at five minutes and counting down. "Once this timer reaches zero, you'll be blasted into space with no way to come back. HAHAHA!" Nacluv added. Marla, Keto and Bronc all laughed.


"We've got to stop them." Luna said.

"You think?!" Shining snapped.

"We have to get to that rocket and free our friends." Cadence said.

"Spike, Krysta, You two will hide while me, Cadence and Shining Armor distract the minions. Comet, you try to free the others." Luna ordered. Everybody nodded. Luna stepped into the cavern.

"HEY!" she called.

Marla and Keto looked, "What are you doing here?" Marla snarled.

"We're here to rescue of friends." Shining added, stepping forward.

"Well you'll be too late. Lingoes… Attack!" Lingos came out and attacked the friends. Comet managed to sneak pass all of the fighting and made her way to her captured friends.

"Sunset, Lightning, Everyone!" She whispered.

"Sapphire?!" Lightning said.

“What are you going here?!” Sunset asked. “You shouldn’t be here!”

“Just be glad she came, Sunset.” Rainbow added.

"Don't worry. I'll get you out!" Sapphire was about to untie them when. “Oh no you don’t!” Nacluv came in and rammed her, sending her into into the wall.

"No! Sapphire!" Mr.Grandruler cried. She slowly got back up onto her feet and saw, to her horror, that the Lingoes overpowered Luna, Cadence and Shining Armor and tied them to the rocket as well!

Nacluv charged Sapphire, but she dodged making him hit the wall. However, Keto blasted her with his staff, sending her to the ground. "Ooh. Too bad you couldn't save your friends, huh? Now you'll never see them again." Bronc taunted.

Sapphire couldn't stand this at all! Her friends were in trouble and she was powerless to help them.

She wasn't about to give up. "I won't give up!" She yelled. She began to glow a light magenta color.

"What's happening to Sapphire?" Sunset asked. Krysta and Spike peeked out from their hiding place and saw her glowing as well. She glowed brighter and brighter, until it was too bright for anybody to see. The light dimmed and everybody saw Comet had transformed; her hair grew longer and was in a ponytail and gained magenta, yellow and red highlight strips. Also, a tail sprouted from her lower back. Her ears turned into pony ears and

"I WILL SAVE MY FRIENDS! NO MATTER WHAT!” Sapphire shouted. Lingoes charged her and she blasted them all with a pulse of magic turning them all into dust. She dashed at the minions and knocked them all over, causing great damage. “Awesome!” Rainbow cried.

Sapphire fired a beam at Nacluv and the minions but they teleported away at the last second. Breathing heavily, Sapphire glowed again and she changed back into her normal self. Krysta and Spike came out of their hiding spot and ran to her. "That...was...awesome, Sapphire!" Spike cried.

"Incredible!" Krysta added.

"Umm... hate to break this up, but we're about to be BLASTED INTO SPACE!" Lightning cried.

Sapphire and the pets looked at the timer and gasped only five seconds were left! There wasn’t any time for her to deactivate the timer. It reached zero and the rocket’s engines started up and blasted through the cavern’s roof and into outer space.

"AHHHHHHH!" The gang cried.

The pets and Sapphire raced outside and saw the rocket zooming up though the sky. "We have to go after them!" Spike cried.

"How?" Sapphire asked.

"Celesto's rocket." Krysta suggested.

"That's not fast enough to catch up with that rocket!" Spike added.

"So now what?" Sapphire said desperately.

Sapphire, Spike and Krysta saw no way to save their friends. Just then, Sapphire’s chest began flashing a white light. “Huh? What’s going on with my chest?” Suddenly, a line of white magic appeared and lead towards a mountain.

“What does it mean?” Kyrsta asked.

“I don’t know, but we should follow it.” They all dashed off towards a mountain. The group followed it and saw it enter a tunnel. Still following it, the stone led them to a enormous, mechanical jaguin (hybrid of a Jaguar and macaw)

The body was light yellow with black spots and the wings were also yellow but with black highlights. “Woah, a Zord!” Spike exclaimed. The Zord seems to have heard them because it’s eyes shot open and it stared down at the trio.

Lowering its head, it examined Sapphire while growling at her. “Easy boy, it’s okay. I’m a friend.” Sapphire cooed. Sensing the kindness and sincerity in her voice the Zord nodded and opened it's mouth. “Let’s go, you guys.” Sapphire and the pets walked inside. In the zord was a cockpit with a control panel, complete with handlebars and special buttons and weapons. "Awesome!" Sapphire complimented. She sat in the seat behind the handlebars and grabbed them. "Now....how do I drive this?" she asked.

"Figure that out later, we have to save our friends!" Spike said.

"But we don't know how far they are. They could be in space by now." Krysta added.

Just then, the radar destroyed something in the Thermosphere. “That must be the rocket!” Spike identified.

"Oh no! They're almost to space. We have to catch them!" Krysta cried. Sapphire grabbed the control and pushed them forward. “Hold on!” The zord flapped it's massive wings and soared out of the mountain.

"WOOOOHOOOOO!" she cried. Spike and Krysta grabbed onto her clothes, trying not to get thrown into the back wall. In minutes, the zord was in the Thermosphere.

"There they are!" She cried.

"Let's go!" Spike added.

"Right!"


Lightning and the gang were in extreme panic. "What are we gonna do?" Fluttershy asked.

"There's nothing we can do." Buddy replied.

"If help doesn't come soon,
We will meet our doom!" Rhymey said.

"That's supportive." Rainbow grumbled.

It looked hopeless, until Mr. Grandruler spotted something big and metal coming towards them. "What's that?" Everybody saw it and as it got closer they realized what it was and who the pilot was. "Is that a… Jaguin zord!?” Sunset asked.

“With Sapphire.... driving!?” Celestia added. Sapphire drove the zord over top of the rocket. “Don’t worry, guys, I got you.” Sapphire was about to grab it with the Zord’s powerful claws when the rocket jerked to the right. “Huh?” She tried again and it moved to the left. Then the rocket flew away from the Zord. "What's going on?" She asked, totally confused.

"I bet Nacluv is controlling it!" Spike said. Sapphire steered the zord, following the rocket.

Meanwhile, back on earth, Keto was busy controlling the rocket with a remote control. "Hehehehe. That weakling will never be able to catch my rocket." He declared.

"Hey! I built it!" Bronc declared, insulted.

"Oh suck it up!" Marla snapped. Bronc and Marla began getting in each other faces and began pushing each other.

Soon they knocked into Keto, making him drop the control on the ground. The remote broke into a million pieces. "Now look at what you've done!" Nacluv thundered.


Back in the sky, the rocket's engine began stuttering,

"What's going on?" Rainbow asked. That's where the rockets gave out! "The engines must have died!" Grandruler cried.

"If the engines died that means we're gonna....!" Lightning started.

".......FREEFALL!" Everybody cried. The rocket began dropping like a rock. The people all over Mystic Island saw the rocket falling and were deeply afraid. "WE ARE DOOMED!" Mr. Grandruler and Celestia screamed.

"Roar!"

Just then, they saw the Jaguin Zord diving towards them in a powerful dive. Sapphire lined up with the rocket and extended the claws. The claws gripped the rocket “Gotcha!” she pulled up on the handlebars. The zord began pulling up, slowing down with the rocket. Soon, the zord and rocket gently floated down to the ground. The civilians all rejoiced and went to untie the gang.

Sapphire landed the zord and it lowered its head. She and the pets climbed out of the zord and raced towards their friends.

"Lightning! Guys! Are you all okay?! Krysta asked.

"Yeah, We're okay. Thanks to you guys." Grandruler replied.

"Actually, you should thank Sapphire. She's the one who really saved you guys." Spike said.

Sapphire blushed and said "Oh. I didn't do that much." The gang was shocked.

"Not much?, Sapphire you saved our lives! Without you, we would have been goners." Sunset replied. The civilians all cheered and rejoiced for Sapphire. Sunset and Lightning lifted her up onto their shoulders and walked into the crowd, where Sapphire was cheered for, because of her heroic rescue.

Meanwhile, the villains were watching the whole thing from the tower monitors. “You win today, Sapphire. Next time won’t be so easy.” Nacluv sneered and his minions agreed.


That night, a party was held at the Mr. Grandruler's mansion in honor of Sapphire. Everybody was dancing and having all kinds of fun. The rangers all gathered around and listened to Grandruler's speech.

"Sapphire Sunlight, today you've shown great bravery in the face of danger. Even when you were against all odds, you never gave up and succeeded in rescuing us from certain doom. We are ever so grateful to you." Her friends all cheer and clapped for her, making her embarrassed again. "And now, we have a gift for you."

Principal Celestia came in front of Sapphire with a red box with a pink morpher, like her friends, "Sapphire, on behalf of all of us, you are the newest Power Ranger. The Animal Ranger!" Grandruler concluded.

Sapphire gasped softly, "R-Really?!"

"Really. You’ve earned it.” Grandruler approved.

"Thank you. This is the best day ever!" she exclaimed. She took the morpher and placed it on her shirt. They both shined in the moonlight. Sunset and the rest of her friends were proud of their new teammate.
