Enter The White Ranger
Chapter 1: To the Command Centre
A/N: This story is set during Power Rangers Zeo. Note that Kimberly and Ashley are cousins and that Tommy, Adam and Kim are a year older than everyone else. I own nothing apart from characters I invented.
Tommy Oliver slumped on the sofa in his living room. He was exhausted. He hardly got any sleep these days. A couple of months ago Kimberly called Tommy to come up to Florida and get Maddy and bring her to live in Angel Grove. Maddy, in case you don't know, is Tommy and Kimberly's daughter. She was almost a year old now, but for some reason grew twice as fast, so it was like she was almost two. When Kim brought her to the doctor, he said that it was nothing to worry about and that she wouldn't grow as fast in about seven years. Ever since Tommy had brought her to live with him he hardly got any sleep because she always seemed to wake up in the middle of the night and scream and cry as loud as her lungs would let her.
"Daddy," she said, sitting on the floor with a box of crayons and paper. "Hmm," answered Tommy. "I drawed a picture for you." She handed it to him. It was a picture of him and Kimberly and Maddy in the middle. He sighed. Maddy couldn't understand the fact that he and Kim had broken up. "You like it?" she asked him. He looked at her. She was also exhausted. She kept yawning and rubbing her eyes. If only she would sleep… "Do you like it?" she repeated, sounding demanding. "It's the best picture in the world," he said. Maddy gave him a huge smile. Tommy remembered when Maddy drew a picture of how Billy could fix a zord. Everyone liked to remind Billy of the time an infant helped him help them.
Tommy was interrupted from his thoughts by someone knocking at the door. He went to answer it. "Hey man," said Adam, grinning. "You know, just because you're finished school doesn't mean you can stay up all night long partying. Especially when I'm not invited." He kept grinning, knowing the real reason Tommy was so tired. "And it's really not fair keeping your kid up as well." Tommy grinned back. "Ok, you can come over tonight. And stay here all night long." Adam stopped grinning. "Nah you're alright," he said. "No no no," said Tommy. "I insist." Adam laughed and shook his head. He had been friends with Tommy since they were both twelve. Tommy had always been getting Adam into trouble. Adam's father hated Tommy, and he was the principal at the school in Stone Canyon. Tommy was always getting into trouble. Tommy definitely wasn't happy when the Parks moved to Angel Grove.
"Anyway," said Adam. "Zordon said we have to meet in the Command Centre ASAP." Tommy looked confused. "But all the others are at school." Adam laughed. The lack of sleep had made Tommy lose track of time. "It's ten am and its Saturday man," said Adam. "Oh," said Tommy. "Ok." He yawned. "We'd better get going then," said Adam. "Yeah." "And don't forget the kid. You always forget everything." "Ha ha," said Tommy. He picked Maddy up and they teleported to the Command Centre.
