Alright guys, after reading a good few fanfics here and on other sites as well as watching a crap load of PR in the recent months, i decided to get back in the game and write this. My version of how Jason was able to get his powers back in FR. Im open for feedback, this is my first time posting a FF online. So Enjoy.

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers:

Fight for the Dark Red Power morpher

Chapter 1: Reflections

Its been several weeks after the final battle with Mondo and the Machine empire, several weeks after he was forced to return his powers to Trey…and several weeks since he stepped down once again as a power ranger. Readjusting to a normal life has been surprisingly hard for the former Red and now Gold Ranger. Every morning since the fight with Mondo, he spent a significant amount of time in bed after waking up, just reflecting on his time as a ranger. Normally, someone who was freed from the constant duty of saving the world and the citizens of Angel Grove would be happy to just live life as a regular civilian. This was not the case for Jason. Especially since this was the second time he had to give up his power and had no choice in the matter unless he wanted to die.

"So what am I supposed to do now?" Jason mumbled to himself once again as he laid in bed, awake for a little more than an hour. Now that the peace conference was over, there was no "saving the world-ish" type thing he could do now with the free time he had in his hands. There was no denying it, he still felt his time as a ranger was not complete and inside he felt useless.

Jason then turned his head over to look at his now girlfriend sleeping soundly next to him and smiled. Emily was the only person that helped Jason escape his thoughts on a daily basis. When he was with her-whether it was to take her shopping, go grab a bite or walk in the park, he enjoyed every second of it but at the end of the day, not her or anything else could give him the satisfaction he so longed for.

The numerous thoughts continued running through the mind of Jason as usual until…

"Ring, ring!"

"Who could It be so early in the morning" groaned Emily as she pulled the covers over her head to try and block the noise.

Jason grabbed the phone and answered it.

"Yea, hello?"

"Hey Jase, its me Rocky!'

Suddenly Jason remembered that it was indeed Rocky who he gave his Red ranger powers to and a light smile rose on his face. Maybe there was a chance that he could return to the action, after all, Rocky was the Blue Zeo ranger and there was no need for him to have the red power morpher lying around if he didn't need to use it.

"Hey Rocky whats up man?"

"Nothing much bro, Tommy just wanted me to confirm that you were still coming to the picnic today."

Oh yea that's right, I almost forgot! Jason thought. Today was the day that Tommy wanted all of us to go hang out…and great, at least then I could try and have Rocky…

"Yea man I'm still coming with Emily today, we'll be by around 1:30-ish"

"Cool man, ill see you then-"

"Wait Rocky!"

"Yea Jase?"

Jason's heart began beating fast, he was gonna ask the question and wasn't sure what the response would be. Knowing how stubborn Rocky could be at times, he could deny him the Power morphed and keep it as a souvenir to remember his first set of powers. It was understandable, when Tommy permanently lost his Green ranger powers, he kept the power morpher and put it in a box and went back day after day to reminisce on the good…and bad times he had as a green ranger.

Jason then looked over at Emily who was fast asleep once again, the coast was clear.

"Do you still have my old power morpher and can I get it back?"

There was a semi long silence, which made Jason uneasy, then came a sigh from Rocky.

"I was really hoping this day wouldn't come…"
