Quest For Power

Quest For Power is a five-parter encompassing episodes four through eight in the second season of VR Troopers.
==Synopsis==
The VR Troopers attempt to rescue Tyler Steele from Grimlord's dungeon and the evil war lord's plan to steal all of his knowledge.
==Plot==
Ryan Steele and his fellow Troopers receive a message from Tyler Steele, whose knowledge regarding virtual reality is being tapped by Grimlord's Prism of Empowerment. Grimlord plans to rebuild his empire using this jewel. Ryan and J.B. take on Wolfbot and Rabid Spore to stop Grimlord from tapping Tyler's brain. The Troopers realize that they must infiltrate Grimlord's Virtual Dungeon to locate Tyler, and Jeb and Ryan decide to do so, but are detected and trapped. Grimlord sets off a self-destruct mechanism, which completely wipes out the Virtual Dungeon, but very nearly kills both Ryan and Jeb. In the mountains above Cross World City, the Troopers find that Grimlord is holding Tyler in a second dungeon, the Virtual Cavern. Ryan enters Grimlord's new domain, where he battles a gauntlet of Grimlord's old mutants (restored using the rest of Tyler's technology), while J.B. and Kaitlin Star are trapped in Grimlord's Chamber of Doom. The Cavern is self-destructed; Ryan finds his father in critical condition and rescues him along with the other two Troopers, but loses his V.R. powers in the process. The Troopers bring Tyler to Tao Chung, who physically rehabilitates him. Tyler then builds new V.R. technology - particularly improved virtual armor, weapons, and powers for Ryan - to battle Grimlord's new army. All the Troopers need is to capture Grimlord's Crystal of Empowerment from his Dark Fortress in Earth's orbit. They find the Fortress guarded by Despera, the Ultra Skugs, Doom Master and the Vixens...who pin the Troopers to a final showdown in the Virtual Quarry.
