A.N. : Ok! So this is a story that I've had in my mind for a little while! I wrote it a while ago, and I have gone through, and redone this chapter, and will be doing it with the next couple as well, so that the story flows better!

Pairing: That's for me to know, and Y'all to find out! Though there are hints of Tommy/Iz in this chapter

Word Count: 864

Prologue:

My eyes closed in absolute 'terror'. In front of me was the UGLIEST thing you have ever seen in your life. Was it a machine or a pig, or a shark? It was horrendous and I had a very bad feeling it wasn't the last I would be seeing of this thing. It disappeared and the plan went into action. The 'rangers' showed up. Ugh they make me sick. I groaned.

"Are you OK?" The red one asked me.

"Fine, just a little dazed." Was my response. Then I heard a laugh and the rangers stiffened. Tommy was standing behind them. "Stay back!" Pinky commanded. Just wait, I thought. As Tommy attacked I made a show of running around the corner to 'hide'. Once there I prepared to morph, hearing what was obviously Pinky. "Where is that female friend of yours?" She prompted. Throwing my arm up I called out 'Shadow Power!' Then I was standing there as the shadow ranger. My armour didn't look like it was there. It looked like I was covered by the shadow of a building. It was just barely thick enough so that none could see who it was behind the mask.

"I'm right here Pinkzilla!" I said. Lame, I know, but she was pissing me off and the fight hadn't even started yet. The others laughed at me that. Until, she yelled at them because they weren't respecting her-that is. If they continued to get this distracted in battle they'd never win! Nodding at Tommy, I called upon the 'Shadow Saber' and Tommy called for the 'Sword of Darkness'. We went into action, attacking the rangers until they were forced to retreat. We laughed as they teleported away.

"Power Down." We said in unison. I turned to him and took in his green flannel shirt, torn blue jeans, and his shoulder length hair which was mussed from the morph, he looked so hot! I grabbed his hand and we walked from where we were standing to the youth center.

We walked into the youth center a few minutes later to see the 'rangers' sitting at a table.

"- I just don't understand how they always beat us!" Cried the black ranger, Zack. I smirked and walked over as the yellow 'ranger' answered him. "I hate to admit it but Zack, they act together! We need to either learn to work together better, or find a way to separate them!" She said. By this time I was standing by them. "Hey bro!" I said to Billy. He looked up and smiled at me. I couldn't believe him! As much as it brings bile to my throat to say it. He's the smartest person I've ever seen, and he hasn't yet noticed my changes. Like the fact that I put black highlights in my hair, or that I only wear black and gray anymore. He probably didn't want to see it. Because I knew on anyone else, he would notice right away.

"Greetings and Salutations sister. How are you this fine afternoon?" He asked. Ugh, he annoyed me. Who spoke like that? I mean really? Why could't he have just said, 'Hey sis, whats up?' Would that have been so hard? What is his problem? I mean really! I just smirked and surveyed the group. A bunch of imbeciles, the lot of them!

"Just hanging around bro..." I replied as Tommy chose that minute to join us. He glared at pinky before leaning down to kiss my cheek.

"Lets get outta here babe." He said with a frown in the others direction. I smiled up at him. "OK!"

I replied and bent down to kiss my idiotic brother. Tommy started towards the door. " Be careful." He said with obvious worry in his eyes. Ha he should be worried about himself not about me.

(One Week Later)
I stood facing off with the rangers. Tommy and I stood side by side as the stared us down-unsuccessfully, I might add. "Izzy! Tommy! Don't do this! Can't you see Rita's just using you to rule the world? And you're just going to let her get away with it!" Jason shouted at us.

I nodded to Tommy and we attacked. Tons of kicks, punches, and saber blasts later. I stood with my saber at my de-morphed brothers throat. "Iz, this is not you! Please, do not do this!" He exclaimed. I made the mistake of looking into his scared eyes.

Then it all can back to me, the jokes, the games, all the summers the six of us spent at the beach as best friends. Together. My saber disappeared as i de-morphed and stared into my brothers relieved eyes. I brought a hand up to my mouth, appalled, and disgusted at what I had almost done, to my brother!

Tommy stopped to look at me. That gave Jason the opening he needed to destroy the Sword of Darkness, successfully freeing him from Rita's hold. I swallowed hard. "Iz-" He started. But that was all I heard. I didn't turn back even as they called my name. I continued forward to an unknown destination. Little did I know, this was the start of a new beginning.
