The tall fit man of around fifty stood there watching the young people deep in thought. He noticed how the only girl among the five boys acted more like a boy herself. He didn't know how she would react to what he wanted, but he would find out soon.

Tori stood there laughing with her friends, making plans for later after the boys got off work for the day. She wished she had a job too as it did get boring sometimes hanging out doing nothing. "Wont to go to a movie tonight Tori?"

"What kind of movie, Dustin?"

"Well its a racing movie, I really want to see it and thought you might go with me. I will even buy the popcorn." Tori smiled at her best friend, she didn't like those kinds of movies but he had those puppy dog eyes looking at her.

"Okay, sure. When do you want me to pick you up?" The others were smiling at them.

"Ohh, Dustin has a date, and its with Tori." Smirked Shane.

"You wouldn't go out with me, Tori." Said Blake. She turned to him, and her smile dropped as she spoke.

"But you never ask me."

"oh." Hunter went over to his truck with his brother following him. Shane took off on his skateboard.

"You can change your mind if you want to, its really all right." Tori looked at Dustin and she smiled up at him.

"No, I am going with you. I think it will be fun and I don't care what the guys think." Dustin smiled brightly, his eyes dancing as he briefly hugged her to him and then walked into the store leaving Tori to head down to the beach. She was lost in her thoughts when a hand touched her shoulder and without thinking she tossed him over her shoulder. A loud omph sounded and she looked down at him.

"Daddy!" She put a hand to her mouth and wondered if he was going to get mad at her. He just looked up at her. "Sorry Daddy, didn't know it was you."

"That's alright, its okay nothing broken. Next time I need someone to take someone out I will call on you." He smiled at her and got to his feet dusting himself off. Dustin came out at that moment, seeing what had happened.

"Tori, what is going on, need any help?" He turned and saw who it was.

"Oh, didn't know it was you dude, oh sorry sir." Toris' father smiled at the younger man.

"How are you doing Waldo?" He heard the soft moan.

"Fine sir, can you not call me that? Ya see everyone knows me as Dustin. That name...well...."

"Oh I get it, teasing from other kids. Okay Wal.., I mean Dustin. I will try. Now excuse us, I need to talk to Victoria." Dustin nodded and left them alone. "Come lets walk.

"But Daddy, I don't want to go to that fancy finishing school. I like the school here."

"Yes, but your mother wants more for you. She wants you to be like her, not a tom boy. I know you like to be one of the boys. But you are growing up now, can you at least do this for your mother?" He put his hand out and pulled on her hair gently.

"I can't, I don't like fancy clothes, and heels."

" It's only a year and then off to college. You would have the chance to live in a foreign country and meet some interesting people. You don't really have anything here to keep you." If only you knew Daddy, she thought. She looked up at her dad who was watching her, with a determined look on his face.

"But dad I will miss my friends, and I want to finish my training."

"Surely it can wait. You seem pretty good to me already, enough to take care of yourself. Without your old fathers help."

'I don't want to go."

"I am sorry Victoria Ann, you are going and that is final, in one week you will leave for the finishing school. Time enough to say goodbye." He leaned and gave his daughter a kiss on the cheek, and walked away to his car. Tori stood there, trying to think of some way to stay in town. But what?

It was at that moment that her morpher beeped. "What is it Cam?"

"Tori, you need to meet the rest of the group and take on the new monster, over by the mall."

"Alright Cam." She glanced around seeing no one watching and morphed. Then using her power she ran to where the newest enemy stood. Various colored lights revealed her teammates arrival. She stood there ready. The monster stood there, holding a squalling baby.

"Ah, I see you power rangers have come to play with me. How nice of you. There were babies all over the ground, some crawling, some just sitting and crying in grown up clothes that was falling off. "Lots of playmates for you to play with here."

"Hey dude we don't play with oversized bananas. We'll peel you and mash you into mush."

"That's right Dustin, we can't let him keep turning people into babies." Hunter threw a bolt of lightning towards the banana who amazingly flipped over to the side and it missed. Blake ran forward with his stick and struck out at it. As Shane moved forward with his sword and flew through the air attempting to kick the monster, but was grabbed by his leg and thrown across the pavement. Blake hit him and sparks flew, and he tried to strike again and Banana grabbed his hand and hit him with a large ripe banana.

"Have a banana on me." Blake tried to wipe the banana off his visor and backed off. Dustin ran up and slipped on the banana peel that lay there, falling on his bottom. Cam pulled him to his feet. Tori struck out with water from the fountain that bubbled in the center of the square. He glanced at her and pointed, and laughed and in a puff of yellow smoke he vanished. The guys turned and looked at each other, and when they did someone was missing....Tori.

It was then that Hunter spotted the blue ranger suit on the ground, with a tiny blond baby of around a year sitting there, smiling. Hunter could not believe what he saw. He got down on his knees and put a finger to the tiny cheek. "Toni?"

"Hey guys look at this." The guys instantly knew who it was. All surrounded her, all with shock and then anger at the monster. She just sat there smiling at them with her one tooth in front.

"Now what do we do?" All turned to Cam.

"Hey bro we thought you would know the answer."

"And why would I know the answer, Blake?"

"Well you are older than us."

"But I don't know what to do with a baby. Do any of you?" Dustin picked up the tiny girl careful not to lose the costume so loose around her. One tiny fist came up and grabbed a lock of his hair. He smiled down at her, and placed a kiss on her forehead.

"We take her back to OPS, and we take care of her. Isn't she cute?"

"Well I am not changing any diapers...no way!" Shane said and began to back away, the other guys shook their heads too. "She may be cute but she will have our heads if we do. Don't want her mad at me...."

"Dudes she is just a beautiful baby, look at her. How can you act that way towards your friend? Bro's you gotta chill out and do what needs to be done. She would do it for us.
