## Story:

When Grid Battleforce's Commander needs to select a leader for the team, the Rangers are at odds over who should get the job.

## Plots:

In the Cyber Dimension,  Venjix projects his cobra avatar and asks Scortron if the plan was a success. Scortron says that Grid Battleforce has rangers now. Venjix becomes enraged then begins to scan through his data files and starts to form two new avatars, he creates Entron and Syntron from RPM ranger files. Venjix tells his two new creations that they are now his new generals along side Scortron, Venjix tells them he needs gallons of Morph-X to be able to transport himself into the Prime World. While Scortron looks at the Morph-X they have collected then tells Venjix that they don't have enough to transport him between dimensions at the moment, but enough for robots and avatars. Venjix tells Entron to go with Scortron and enter the Prime World to get enough Morph X to transport him.

At Grid Battleforce, Kayden is in the medic floor as he gets the news that Shelia was cut off life support and her injuries where fatal. Kayden asks about the other cadets as the nurse says some have been able to recover a bit while others have experience the same fate as Shelia. Kayden takes the heartbreaking news to Doctor K and Commander Park who are sadden to hear, Commander goes on speaker then tells the base the news and has a moment of silence with all the workers. Commander Park gets off the speaker after a few seconds then tells the rangers that he has to figure out who will be their new leader. Doctor K shows up as she tells them the decision will have to wait then takes them to the laboratory.

In the Laboratory, Doctor K introduces her latest creations, the Chaser Bots. She explains the Chaser Bots are robotic companions and that their circuits are infused with animal DNA and the rangers DNA. She says they were created to assist the Rangers in their training as well as function as the control consoles for their new Zords. Doctor K activates a rabbit Chaser Bot, who introduces himself as Jax, whose objective is to make sure Julie is fast and efficient. Julie thanks Doctor K and tells Jax that he’s cute, which irritates him because he hates being called cute. Doctor K then turns on a gorilla Chaser Bot, introducing himself to Kayden as Buster. Buster tries to get a hug from Kayden, but Kayden puts his hand up then tells the Chaser Bot that he’s not in the best of moods for a hug, which depresses the Chaser Bot because he likes hugs. Doctor K then turns on lastly a cheetah Chaser Bot, who tries to introduce himself to Arthur, but forgets his name. Asking Doctor K what his name is, the scientist tells Arthur and him that his name is Cruise and that he’s a little forgetful. Offering to take Arthur for a ride, Cruise transforms and shows off his bike mode to Arthur, which excites him.

Back in the Cyber Dimension, Syntron tries to confirm that Scortron has been in the Cyber Dimension from the RPM World. Scortron responds by saying that him and his best friend use to be rough robots of the Machine Empire, he tells her that his name was Vartron and that after they were destoryed Venjix found us his data base and rebuilt us giving us new forms. Scortron explains that he hasn't seen Vartron in a long time. Scortron says that he build everything you se here for Master Venjix and tells them if they need back up or help to summon Tronics. Acting overconfident, Entron states he doesn’t need protection. Scortron tells him he’d be just data particles floating through the grid if it had Venjix not been there. With Scortron and Entron preparing to leave, Syntron tells them good luck then Entron and Scortron teleport to the Prime World.

Back at Grid Battleforce, Commander Park walks with Doctor K, the Chasers Bots, and the rest of the team to present them with their Zords. Looking on in amazement, Arthur says that his life dream was always be in a zord after hearing all of his father's stories. After seeing the Zords, Park tells the team that it is critical that they have the right leader. Kayden states that he has the most training experience to the Commander and that he should be announced as team leader. Julie buts in and says that she has a faster reaction time and can make better decisions in quick moments unlike Kayden, Arthur looks at them both and says spicy. Grid Battleforce’s alarm sounds and cadets tell the Commander of a security breach outside of a Morph-X distribution center. Kayden and Julie jump out in front of each other to leave with Arthur following them.

At the distribution center, Entron is seen with Scortron pumping Morph-X from a tanker truck into a jar. Scortron attaches two Morph-X beakers to try something out. Seeing what’s happening, Kayden realizes it's Jackson but says that Jackson died during the break in. Scortron sees the rangers nice of you to crash the party then asks Entron of whether the team are friends of his, Entron denies this and transforms into his battle form, which startles the team but Kayden asks the avatar who is he or what is he. Entron then introduces himself to the rangers and then shows his new friends Scortron and Tronics. Entron tells the Tronics to get them and they start attacking. While Kayden and Julie fight the Tronics, Arthur fights against Entron, who says while fighting that he is always ready to kick a rookie's butt. Meanwhile, Kayden and Julie are still fighting Tronics and trying to prove who the better ranger is. Kayden shows off his skills while Julie shows off how to protect her team. Arthur comes in and breaks up Kayden and Julie’s argument to get them to continue fighting the Tronics. Entron asks if Scortron has any more tricks. he says in return he does and he latches a computer chip that was connected to his laptop and downloads the Venjix Virus into the object. The object then creates a tire-themed Robotron named Cycletron. Cycletron, Entron and Scortron return to the fight just as the team finishes off some Tronics. Surprised of his existence, the team transforms into the Energy Chaser Rangers, which Scortron says he didn’t sign up for fighting again and stays the Morph-X. Entron tells Cycletron to handle the Rangers while he and Scortron leave with the Morph-X. Cycletron summons more Tronics and the Rangers summon their Energy Sabers before they continue fighting. Arthur and Julie Rangers fight off some Tronics and the Kayden fights Cycletron. The Arthur and Julie summons their Energy Blaster to finish off the remaining Tronics. When a dog runs past the Arthur and starts digging a hole, the Arthur starts to freeze up. Realizing a leftover Tronic is sneaking up to attack Arthur. Julie sees it then fires a blast to finish off the Tronic. Arthur unfreezes after the dog leaves and thanks Julie for helping. Meanwhile, Kayden is still fighting Cycletron. When Kayden sarcastically tries to check Cycletron’s tire pressure, he starts questioning why he’s overheating. After he starts overheating, Kayden breaks the Robotron’s tires and starts blasting at him, then finally destroys him by himself, and then starts to fire at Julie after she tells Kayden that he was a hotshot. Trying to dodge an overheated Kayden, Julie starts losing her energy and collapses. Before Kayden can finish her off as he wants his body shuts down, The Chaser Bots and Doctor K arrive to retrieve the team. Arthur tells Doctor K of their situation and the team starts to leave.

In the Cyber Dimension, Scortron is less than thrilled at the amount of Morph X he and Entron were able to retrieve, saying it isn’t enough to get Venjic back to Prime World, but enough to power a Gigadrone. Scortron starts powering the Gigadrone by pouring the Morph-X into a funnel.

At Grid Battleforce, Doctor runs checks on Kayden and Julie as to what caused their weaknesses. Commander Park asks for an explanation and Doctor tells him she doesn’t know what happened yet. When Arthur sees Julie and Kayden trying to get up, he tells them to stop arguing and competing and to start working together as a team, telling them of how their enemy already got away with some Morph X. After Kayden and Julie agree to do better, Arthur asks Commander Park he can return to the distribution center to look around as to what caused their weaknesses. Park approves and Arthur leaves to look for clues.

Meanwhile in the Cyber Dimension, Scortron prepares the finishing touches on his Gigadrone. The robot tells the two avatars how he will do better than them to regain Venjix's good side. Scortron pulls a lever and tells the two of how he has multiple Gigadrones at his disposal that will transport with his Robotron’s data. His favorite model, an Alpha model teleports with Cycletron’s data.

At the distribution center, While Arthur is looking for answers about the team’s weaknesse. he notices a green barrier in the sky and Scortron’s creation, a Gigidrone drops in, scaring the citizens of Coral Harbor. Seeing the Gigadrone drop in, Commander Park calls Arthur and tells him that he needs to use the Racer Zord to fight the robot. Arthur morphs and motors off on Cruise’s bike mode. Park deploys the Racer Zord. Arthur and Cruise enter the Zord. Cruise links himself with the Zord and tells Arthur to use the Zord’s Battle Mode. The Zord transforms into it's Battle Mode and approaches the Gigadrone. It transforms its legs into wheels and it starts skating towards the Racer Zord. When the Zord starts fighting the Gigadrone, Arthur sees a build board with an advertisement for dog food and freezes. When the Gigadrone approaches a Morph-X Tower, Commander Park tells Doctor K he needs the other Rangers right now. Trying to handle Park’s demand, Doctor K starts to realize why Arthur froze earlier. Doctor K realizes that since Arthur has cheetah DNA and cats are scared of dogs, Kayden and Arthur suffered their weaknesses as well since they became Power Rangers with the Morph-X and Animal DNA it had a side effect. Doctor K tells Julie to eat a carrot. When she eats it, Doctor K tells Julie that her rabbit DNA will allow vegetables to replenish her energy levels. Kayden asks about his weakness and Doctor K tells him that since he pushed his body's limit too hard, he overheated and it would sent him wild. Doctor tells him to try and not overheat and he will be okay. Doctor K tells Kayden and Julie to go and help Arthur. Doctor tells them as well that Arthur will remain frozen as long as he’s looking at the dog build board.

In the hanger, Julie comes into the hangar as the Yellow Ranger with Jax and enters her Chopper Zord. Jax links to his Chopper Zord and Julie flies off. Kayden enters his Zord as the Blue Ranger with Buster in position. Buster links with the Wheeler Zord and Kayden drives off to the battle. Julie tries to fight off the Gigadrone with her Zord until she gets shot out of the sky by the giant monster. Julie and Jax are saved when the Zord lands on top of Kayden’s Zord and it's landing pad. Julie flies off in her Zord again, unleashing the Rapid Blast to seriously harm it and Jax has her try out Rabbit Mode. The Zord digs a hole underground to get behind the Gigadrone and uses a Beast Kick to knock it back to Arthur’s location to unfreeze him. the Gigadrone arrives at the Racer Zord’s location, knocking the Zord down and Arthur becomes unfrozen. Arthur presses on his morpher to boost his final attack and performs the Cheetah Strike’ finisher to slash and destroy the Gigadrone.

Back in the laboratory, Arthur, with Kayden and Julie walk in with excitement from their battle. Park interrupts them and tells them of his worries that Venjix’s evil new allies. Park tells them he has faith that they’ll be ready and congratulates them on a successful mission. Park turns his attention to name a leader for the team and Julie tells him that she thinks Arthur she be their leader and Kayden agrees that Arthur has that leader instinct in him with how he helped us in battle and reminded them to work as a team. Surprised at the decision they made, Arthur accepts the task. As Commander says well son you are now the leader and how he hopes he will grow while as leader.
