Chapter 1

Disclaimer: I do not own Power Rangers or any other thing mentioned here.

(A/n: Sky is red, Bridge is blue, Z is green, Syd is yellow, and Sophie is pink.)

"Uhhhh" Z was sent flying back to Sky and Bridge as they caught her in their latest battle with a criminal named Xandrax and Sky shouted at her "I told you Z not to charge towards him!"
Z shot back "Hey we were all just standing here while he was burning that building atleast now he isn't!"
Sky rolled his eyes and said "I didn't make a decision yet!"
Z sneered "Well I couldn't wait the whole day for the squad leader to think!"
Just then their morphers beeped and Cruger shouted at them "RANGERS STOP FIGHTING anongst yourselves AND START FIGHTING the criminal!"
Sky glared at her then looked front and shouted "Ready?"
Z and everyone else who were tired of their petty bickering shouted "Ready!"
"SPD Emergency!"
As they started fighting the criminal the yellow and pink rangers charged towards him but were sent flying back, just then the red and blue rangers sent a series of attacks to the monster but couldn't put a dent and crashed near Z's feet as she didn't attack the monster even once... Sky got up getting annoyed at the green ranger and shouted "Z are you going to fight him or NOT?"
But Z was not paying attention she was staring at the monster's belt and when Sky didn't get any reply he literally screamed "I swear to God Z, I ORDER you to go and fight it!"
Z then shouted "Wait! I'm noticing something about the Xandrax's belt!"
Sky rolled his eyes inside his helmet and sneered "Z that is the lamest excuse you've ever come up with!" Just then Bridge and Syd came flying towards them and they helped pick them up. Sky said "That's it" and started charging towards the criminal when Z stopped him and said "Not now Sky! Trust me!"
Z learned from Kat that Xandrax's belt was his life force and Z noticed on the battlefield that his belt was always red but once she had noticed it would blink blue too, and when that happened Xandrax stopped fighting and would simply laugh or give lame dialogues like "You are mine rangers" or "Is that all you got" and stuff. So she understood that when it blinked blue it meant the belt was charging, so Xandrax would resort to less energetic activities like talking or laughing rather than using his fire power or fighting. And somehow the harder the rangers hit him the more energy he got and the belt remained red for longer. She got to know this when she charged towards him unmorphed in the beginning.

Xandrax blasted another car and Sky couldnt see any more destruction and was already angry on Z for not listening to his orders earlier so forcefully let go of Z's grasp on his hand as he sneered at her "I think you're better for the streets Delgado." and charged towards the criminal leaving 3 shocked rangers and a very angry green ranger who nobody could see had watery eyes within her helmet. As Sky was sent flying back yet again, Z waited and stopped the other rangers from charging back at the monster and as she saw his belt flashing blue, she charged towards him with a battle cry and kept shooting on his belt until all his energy died out and he got destroyed. Z then summoned her green patrol cycle and sat on it and drove away.

As everyone else powered down, Syd went on to hitting Sky saying "What is your problem Sky? Couldn't you trust her instincts for once?" As she kept hitting him Bridge snaked an arm around her waist and pulled a very angry Syd away as he said "C'mon Sky you are better than that..." Sophie simply looked disappointed at her squad leader.

As everyone reached SPD headquarters and went to the common room, they saw Z standing near the molecular generator waiting for her order.

Syd asked "Z are you okay?"
Z looked back and smiled "Yeah Syd why wouldn't I be?"
Sky looked at her confused. Bridge then said "Because Sky told you that you were only good for the streets... which was really mean of him to say... and he should apologize... but he won't because of his big ego...and..."
Z interrupted "Bridge!"
Bridge then said "Sorry... so are you okay?"
Z smiled "Yes I am!" As she got her coffee she looked at Sophie and said "Oh Soph, Boom's looking for you!" She then went out of the common room without even looking at Sky or acknowledging his presence.
