In her Sub a notorious space pirate stiffened as the warning touched her and then her lips curved in a half smile as the red glow clung to her form. A seed of a dark idea began to germinate, growing in the warmth of the bloodfire message. Evils' time was upon them and power lay in the hands of the lords of darkness. The signs had been there for all to see, the Evil forces of the Galaxy had grown in influence and dominion, until their strength was once again superior. Dark Spectre held sway over them all....or maybe his long lost sibling, Maligore. Divatox would stand no chance with Dark Spectre after she had raided that very profitable mining world of his. Maybe then, if she was to have a place in this new order of the Universe that was coming into being, an alliance--no, a marriage would give her access to Power beyond all others. She laughed with delight, brushing back her long purple streaked hair. Divatox was making Wedding Plans!"How're you doing?" Cassie asked quietly. Kimberly shrugged.
          "Can't be worse than the Isle of Illusion," she replied. "That was not a lot of fun." "Wait a minute," Ashley said slowly, glossing over the unfamiliar names. "You're using the Astro Power as an anchor for an experiment that makes people cross dimensions?"

Andros was giving Justin an odd look. "Who are Andy and Lee?"

"They're your Psycho Rangers." The words gave Ashley a chill, but Justin didn't seem to notice. He went on without pausing. "I meant to ask you, have you noticed anything unusual lately? Hallucinations, weird dreams, whatever?"

"Yes." Andros went from wary to irritated comprehension in the blink of an eye. "It's you, isn't it. Using the Astro Power as an anchor is affecting everyone who's held it, not just the people you're trying to transfer."

          The Pink Astro Ranger looked puzzled. "Isle of Illusion? I don't think I've heard about that."
          "Right. I forgot, your team doesn't work as closely with Zordon as the previous ones have. The Isle of Illusion was a place that Rita sent the six of us, the original six. It showed you the things you were most afraid of, feeding off of fear and lack of confidence, making you slowly fade from existence. If it hadn't been for a little guy named Quagmire, we would have been toast."
          "What was it for you?" Cassie asked curiously. "I'm sorry, that was really nosy."
          Kim smiled. "No, it's okay. I saw Bulk and Skull as angels. See, back then, they acted like a couple of bullies, always pushing us around. I figured if Rita could make them act like that, she could do anything." She laughed slightly. "I was pretty shallow back then," she admitted. "But Quagmire reminded me of the time I had to take on a monster known as the Terror Toad all by myself, and I got my confidence back."
          "You're kidding," Skull broke in. "You mean, an illusion of me as an angel was enough to break you?"
