"At the moment, no," Rob replied to the newcomer, "and now I'm starting to get the feeling that this wasn't such a good idea after all."
"Give up, humans!" Goldar commanded as he fixed his tail behind him. He couldn't deny that he felt some degree of pain when Patrick bit down on it, but it wasn't enough to keep him down. Of course, he didn't want to project that a human was able to pull a trick like that on him. "Surrender to your new rulers!" he continued ordering.
"If somebody is going to save us," Rob commented, "now would be the time to do it."

"Aye yae yae yae yae!" Alpha screeched. "This is horrible! The college is falling to Goldar and Rito! What do we do?"
"Calm down!" Zordon pleaded. "I have a solution. Teleport the five humans that fought against the Goldar, Rito and the Putties to the Command Center immediately."
"You mean you found our new Power Ranger candidates?" Alpha asked
"That is correct," Zordon nodded.
"But there are six of them!" Alpha commented.
"I know, but I have a feeling about the sixth human, something I can't explain," Zordon admitted. "I feel like he can handle himself."
"If you're sure, Zordon!" Alpha frantically pushed several buttons and looked over on the Viewing Globe. He watched as the five humans were instantly teleported away from the college, and in a flash they appeared right before him.

Rob had no idea what just happened. First he was at the college, and in an instant he was somewhere else. He looked around and noticed that Eric, Tracy, Patrick, and the newcomer were with him, but John was missing. "What the heck?" he muttered as he tried standing up. "Is everybody okay?"
"You are safe now," a mechanical voice answered. Rob looked forward and saw a robot that he recognized all to well.
"Alpha Five?" he asked.
"Command Center Prototype," Alpha responded, "but how do you know about me?"
"I....uh....." Rob couldn't get the words out, because he was still trying to process everything through his mind. "What is this place?" he finally asked.
"This is the Command Center!" a loud, booming voice answered. Rob looked up and gasped when he saw a floating head in a giant, glass like tube.
"Oh my god," he whispered. "Zordon?"
"Welcome, Rob, Eric, Tracy, Patrick, and Canis."
