Broken Spell, Part 1
Airdate: 02/20/06
A short time ago, there was a dimension
filled with wonderful magic.
But then, darkness came into power and
the great battle began. An army of the undead swarmed
over the land.
All seemed hopeless when a small legion
of brave and true wizards came forth.
The undead army set their sights on the
human world. The bravest wizard of them all casted a
spell which sealed the evil in the depths of the
underworld.
The humans were never aware of the
sacrifice. Even to this day they live in peace. A
newcommer rides in on his bike to the city of Briarwood.
Meanwhile in a music store called the
Rock Porium, four employees are lectured by their boss
when an earthquake occurs.
During the earthquake, a crack in the
gate appears releasing evil.
A mysterious sorceress is alerted to the
danger that has awakened.
The four employess - Chip, Madison, Vida,
and Xander are alerted to some old man asking for help.
The old man tells them that his brother
is in danger in the woods and asks for help.
The newcommer - Nick speaks up and tells
the old man that he needs a break and he'll help him.
Xander tries to inform Nick of the
strange stories about the woods and that once you go in,
you don't come out. Nick is less than impressed and is
determined to help anyway.
Meanwhile in the depths of the
Underworld, Necrolai reports to her master - Morticon
that the human world was all they imagined it would be.
The four eventually decide to join Nick
and help the old man. The five unknowingly walk into
another dimension in the forest.
The five soon find themselves surrounded
by evil zombies called Hidiacs.
A strange sorceress dressed in a black
robe uses her magic to defeat the Hidiacs and send the
five to safety.
At Rootcore, the sorceress reveals
herself as Udonna and tells them the story of the great
battle. She tells them that legend says that they are to
be Power Rangers.
Udonna's apprentice - Clare informs her
of a situation and she tells the five to stay put. Clare
is less than successful at keeping them there.
The five find their way to Woodland
Village, which was just attacked. The magical creatures
worship them and identify the five as the Mystic Force.
Their moment of worship is shortlived
when a humungous troll appears and begins to attack.
Udonna uses her magic wand to become the
White Mystic Ranger.
The five once again find themselves
surrounded by Hidiacs. Udonna tells them to believe in
magic in order to defeat them.
The White Ranger uses her powers of snow
and ice to freeze the troll and destroy it.
Although the others are excited over
their victory, Nick was unable to make the magic work and
says he's out of there. Disappointed, Udonna sends Clare
to guide him out of the woods.
Koragg the Knight Wolf appears to finish
the job that the Hidiacs failed to do by destroying them.
Udonna and her new Rangers are taken down
with a blast of Koragg's wolf attack. The situation looks
hopeless.
Comments:
The prologue was amazing. This series paralels a
lot of magical adventures like Lord of the Rings
and the Chronicles of Narnia.
Judging by the prologue, the great battle took
place around twenty years ago based on Udonna's
age.
Ten bucks says that Koragg turns out to be the
Red Mystic Wizard from the prologue.
When Koragg is released from the Underworld, he
says "At last! After so many years I'm
free." which is a reference on Rita's
dialogue in "Day of the Dumpster".
The Rangers' dialogue in Rootcore when Vida says
they should hear Udonna out is a reference to the
original Rangers' dialogue in the Command Center
in "Day of the Dumpster".
Xander trying to reason with the Hidiacs was
classic.
