Chereads / Z-Force Rangers / Chapter 7 - Medical Center

Chapter 7 - Medical Center

The sun hung low over the sprawling metropolis of Silverwind City, casting long shadows across the bustling streets. Farza Khan, a seemingly ordinary teenager, raced through the maze of buildings, his heart pounding in his chest. To the casual observer, he was just another face in the crowd, but beneath the surface, Farza harbored a secret that set him apart from everyone else: he was the Red Ranger, the protector of Silverwind City.

As he zipped through the city at an incredible speed, Farza's mind raced with thoughts of his double life. Balancing school, family, and his duties as the Red Ranger was a constant struggle, and there were moments when he felt like he was being pulled in a million different directions at once. But he knew that he had been chosen for a reason, and he was determined to live up to the responsibility that had been thrust upon him.

Suddenly, a piercing alarm jolted Farza from his thoughts. His Z-Watch, the high-tech device that granted him his powers, flashed with an urgent message: "Xenoform activity detected at Silverwind Medical Center."

Without hesitation, Farza changed course, his body moving on instinct as he raced towards the hospital. As he drew closer, the sounds of chaos and destruction grew louder, and he could see plumes of smoke rising from the building's shattered windows.

Farza burst onto the scene just in time to see a group of Xenoforms, the monstrous alien creatures that threatened Silverwind City, terrorizing the hospital staff and patients. He flung himself into action, engaging the creatures in combat with a fierce determination.

As he fought off the main group of Xenoforms, Farza caught a glimpse of movement out of the corner of his eye. One of the creatures had broken away from the pack and was sneaking into the hospital, no doubt searching for new victims to terrorize.

"Oh no!" Farza exclaimed, realizing the severity of the situation. He tried to break away from the fight to pursue the rogue Xenoform, but one of the henchmen landed a brutal blow, sending him stumbling backwards.

Gritting his teeth, Farza reached for his Z-Watch and activated one of its hidden features. A small, spherical drone detached from his suit and zipped through the air, chasing after the Xenoform that had entered the hospital.

With the drone in pursuit, Farza turned his attention back to the remaining Xenoforms. He drew his Phoenix Saber, the razor-sharp blade glowing with an otherworldly energy, and unleashed a flurry of strikes that cut through the creatures like butter.

As the last of the Xenoforms outside the hospital fell, Farza's Z-Watch lit up once again. A live video feed from the drone's FPV camera filled the screen, showing the Xenoform racing through the hospital's corridors, leaving a trail of destruction in its wake.

"Where is it going?" Farza wondered aloud, his brow furrowed with concern. He charged into the hospital, following the path of the drone as it maintained its tight pursuit of the alien.

The hospital was in chaos, with doctors, nurses, and patients running in terror as the Xenoform rampaged through the halls. Farza's heart raced as he navigated the maze of corridors, his eyes fixed on the Z-Watch's screen.

Finally, the drone's feed showed the Xenoform bursting into a hospital room, where it quickly overpowered the guards stationed outside. Farza's blood ran cold as he realized who the room's occupant was: a little girl, lying helpless in her bed.

The Xenoform grabbed the girl, holding her hostage as it snarled at the drone. Suddenly, a figure materialized behind the creature, a wicked grin on her face. It was DySyrian, the illusionist general of the Xenoform army.

"Ah, perfect, just as I wanted," DySyrian gloated, her eyes glinting with malice. "Red, meet the president's daughter!"

Farza's eyes widened in shock. "What?" he exclaimed, his mind reeling. "This was all your doing?"

DySyrian laughed, a harsh, grating sound that sent shivers down Farza's spine. "Of course," she said, her voice dripping with contempt. "With the president's daughter in my grasp, I'll have the military power I need to crush Silverwind City once and for all."

Farza's heart pounded in his chest as he realized the gravity of the situation. If DySyrian succeeded in her plan, the entire city would be at her mercy. He knew he had to act fast.

As he approached the Xenoform, the creature tightened its grip on the girl, edging its fangs closer to her throat. "No, stop!" Farza shouted, his voice raw with desperation.

DySyrian laughed again, a mocking sound that made Farza's blood boil. "Well, will you stop?" she taunted, her eyes glinting with a cruel amusement.

In that moment, Farza knew what he had to do. With a flick of his wrist, he sent a command to the drone, ordering it to self-destruct. The drone exploded in a burst of light and sound, the blast knocking the Xenoform off balance and forcing it to release its grip on the girl.

Seizing his chance, Farza leaped forward, scooping the president's daughter into his arms and carrying her to safety. DySyrian let out a screech of rage and launched herself at Farza, her claws extended.

But before she could reach him, a squadron of military personnel burst into the room, their weapons trained on the illusionist general. Faced with the might of Silverwind City's armed forces, DySyrian had no choice but to retreat, vanishing in a swirl of dark energy.

As the military personnel secured the hospital, the president himself arrived on the scene. He shook Farza's hand, his eyes brimming with gratitude.

"On behalf of Silverwind City, I want to thank you, Red Ranger," the president said, his voice filled with emotion. "You and your fellow Rangers are true heroes, and we are lucky to have you as our protectors."

Farza felt a rush of pride at the president's words, but he knew that the fight was far from over. As he prepared to leave the hospital, he couldn't shake the feeling that DySyrian's plot was just the beginning of something much larger.
