Eddie's Great Determination

**Eddie's Great Determination** is the third chapter of Power Rangers: Family Force.

## Plot Summary

The story began with the Football team: Sean Shun, Dyson Hudson and Jorge Hernandez. Ready of the last try-outs. Then Eddie showed up, wearing the Football uniform. He presented himself, saying he wanted to join the team. This made Sean and his friends laugh, even Sean mocked at him, saying he should join the cheeleaders instead.

Then the coach showed who happened to be... FRANK?! He was the new coach as he left Johnny and Helena working at the gym. Sean got frustrated, thinking that he'll let Eddie joining the team since it's his son. However, Frank said he can't let Eddie join them due his missing arm and that would slow the team down. Eddie got mad and stormed out. However... Frank had a special training for him as a Ranger.

Then Principal Lena was looking at the team and got an idea. When Terry and Toby showed up with a bag full of dirty jockstraps, Principal Lena ordered them to bring a football uniform to her office.

Meanwhile, at the Walkers' residence; Serena and Dizzy were turning the backyard into a training field. Emily showed up... Dressed up as Kikyo from InuYasha, as she was ready to practice her archery.

Her objective was to shoot an arrow to the center of the training dummies as accurate as possible. With a little help from Serena, Emily (even imitating the character from the Anime) managed to shoot an arrow towards the dummy with a 97.37% of accuracy (according to Kit-Kat Bot's analysis)!

Then Serena remembered when she trained her daughter Helena.

We had a flashback where Serena was a younger woman and Helena was still a teenager. She was always having trouble on controlling her water powers, but thankfully her mother was there help her. After she successfully created a water typhoon, she hugged her mother.

Meanwhile, at Eternus' Castle, Meleena used on her evil potions to turn the football uniform into a monster called 'Footblaster'. She showed him a photo of the football team winning last year's game and ordered him to kidnap them.

Then we cut to a Korean restaurant, which it turned out that Sean works at it, helping her mother Ari. He was about to do his homework until Ari told him to take out the garbage. He puts the bag of garbage into a container... Until Footblaster showed up. Sean thought he was a fan of his football team, but the monster asked him to join to his team. Sean turned him down, but the monster didn't take a 'no' to an answer...

At school, Eddie and Emily heard the conversation the popular girls were having about the missing of Sean and his friends. When they approached to them for questions, only Jasmine and Ming-Li answered to them while Carolyne acted like a bitch. The siblings decided to tell this to Frank as Amy was excited to go into action... Only to be told that she and her brother still have classes.

At the Walkers residence, Dizzy explained she made robotic flies with cameras to record every activity around the city in case there's a monster terrorizing people. Kit-Kat Bot activated a holographic screen to showcase what's going on right now. And... It shows the monster Footblaster with explosive football balls. But, he wasn't alone... He was with his Football team called 'Power Penguins', AKA... Sean and his friends. Who seemed mind-controlled by these black shades.

And so, the adult Rangers got ready to morph.

After the Rangers transformed, they went to the city where Footblaster and the 'Power Penguins' were kicking explosive football balls. They fought a little, even Helena revealed a defensive technique. However, Footblaster complained that the Rangers use weapons, so he challenged them to a 'football game' if they want him to liberate Sean and his friends.

They agree to meet each other and the Rangers decided to call Eddie and Emily.

Back to the school, the cheerleaders squad continued training as Carolyne did an acrobatic jump. Eddie and Emily were watching the cheerleaders training as Emily asked him if he's still upset that he didn't join the football team. Then Emily suggested that Eddie should join the cheerleaders instead. She even imagined him wearing that outfit, much for Eddie's embarrasment.

Before she could find a cheerleader outfit for her brother... They received a call from Dizzy, telling them that the adult Rangers need their help. And so, the Walker siblings went to a place with less people to morph.

After the Walker siblings morphed into their Rangers form, they received vehicles like their parents. Eddie received a scooter while Emily received... A kite? Which allows her to fly. And so, the children went into action.

At a football stadium, the adult Rangers were waiting for the children until they arrived. Then Helena checked on Emily to make sure she's all right, much for Emily's annoyance. Then Footblaster and his team showed up, but seeing the Rangers were five and they were four, Footblaster summoned a Hell Soldier to play alongside. He explained the rules:

1) They won't use any weapons. It's gonna be just the strength.

2) The goalposts are replaced with Hell Soldiers standing in a vertical line. So they must take them down with an explosive ball.

And 3) The team that does that 3 times wins.

And so... The game began.

The Rangers and the Power Penguins were in their position, but they acted too slow and Footblaster grabbed the ball and threw it to a Hell Soldier. He took a jump and threw the ball to the line of Hell Soldiers.

0-1

The Rangers tried a different strategy, suggested by Johnny, who asked to be in front this time. However, when Johnny tried to throw the ball to Frank, Sean caught the ball, showing how fast he was. Then he threw the ball to the Hell Soldiers.

0-2

The Rangers were losing and they were desperate. However, Eddie got a plan based on what he saw during the cheerleaders' training. What could it be?

The Rangers once again put themselves in position; but this time, Frank managed to take the ball and give it to Eddie who took a big jump thanks to Emily. He threw the ball towards Footblaster's line of Hell Soldiers.

1-2

The Rangers got their first point, but Footblaster didn't give up. Once again put themselves in position, and with Johnny's help, Eddie took another jump while Frank kicked the ball up in the air and Eddie delivered a punch on the ball to destroy Footblaster's line of Hell Soldiers.

2-2

Footblaster got furious and the last round began. Both teams went into similar positions and Sean did exactly the same as Eddie. They both jumped to reach the ball which was threw by Frank... And Eddie not only managed to catch it, but he also took off Sean's mind-controlling shades. He delivered the final point.

3-2, the Power Rangers win!

As the Rangers cheered, Footblaster decided to fight with them anyway. Frank ordered his children to take Sean to a safe place.

Eddie and Emily took Sean outside the stadium as he was starting to regain conscience. They explained him the situation and the adult Rangers faced off against the students. Frank and Helena took off the shades, Johnny attacked the Hell Soldier and the married couple delivered a kick to Footblaster.

Sean and Dyson regained their conscience too, and Johnny took them to Sean too. Footblaster was pissed as the Rangers took out their weapons, now that they're allowed to use them. Johnny and the children joined the team with their weapons and they did their finisher to destroy the monster. Another victory for the Rangers.

Meanwhile, at Eternus' castle; Meleena had to face her master, who was very disappointed. He punished her with his powers...

Eternus left her with a warning.

Next day, at school; Sean and his friends were talking about what happened to them yesterday and how mortified Sean's mother was. Eddie showed up and he talked with them (while he was hiding his secret identity). After an awkward comment regarding the Blue Ranger, Sean told Eddie he actually felt bad that he didn't join the team, so, at the very least, he could hang out with them as friends. He accepted it and felt very happy of being part of a male group.
