Matt walked out of the store and let out a sigh of relief as he left the store with a grocery bag in hand. He'd managed to make it through the shopping experience with minimal fright or stress and now he emerged victorious on the other side. He groaned a little as he remembered his day wasn't over just yet as he had been signed up by his parents to volunteer at the Angel Grove Hospital for the Ill of Mind. Matt remembered pleading with his mother to allow him to bail but she was set on sending Matt out to do something other than sit in their home. Matt shuddered a little at the thought of the rest of his day's activities but he once more sucked it up and headed home to drop off the groceries and get ready.
Eventually Matt stepped off the bus infront of the less than pleasant looking psychiatric hospital which lead to Matt swallowing his fear and heading inside against his own wishes to not. Matt met up with one of the head nurses who told him about what his job would entail, mostly just interacting with a patient and, in some cases, playing games. The introduction was cut short however as a loud scream came from a nearby room. The source was quickly revealed to be a kid around his own age with an arm that was bent wrong. Before the door closed Matt caught a brief glimpse of the woman kept within and the sight sent shivers down Matt's spine.
Matt was eventually paired up with a much more docile woman who seemed to appreciate Matt's prescense enough and didn't mind the awkward conversation that they held. Today didn't seem quite as bad for Matt.
Rita Repulsa paced back and forth in her Moon Palace as she stretched her limbs and shook out the cramps that had taken ahold of her during her imprisonment.
"At last! I am free from that prison once again! And theres no more pesky Rangers to stop me from taking over the planet!" Rita exclaimed to herslef as she let out an evil cackle to really drive her point home.
While Rita had been monologuing, Finster had been hard at work finishing up a strike team of putties to sic on the planet Earth. As soon as they were finished Rita sent the putties to begin her invasion of the planet Earth starting with the home of her old enemies; Angel Grove.
The city of Angel Grove was sent into disarray as men made of clay began appearing out of nowhere and causing chaos. They were chasing civilians, breaking windows and overturning anything not bolted down. It was quickly made clear to the residents of Angel Grove that the evil forces that the Power Rangers once fought were back with a vengeance.
