Becoming the New Blue

Justin had looked at Rocky in shock. "You guys are the Power Rangers?" he had asked. Rocky couldn't believe their secret had been figured out. There was a couple of things he had to make sure of. "First off, what were you doing underneath my bed?" Rocky had asked. "Well." Justin had began, "I was coming in to see how you were doing and then I heard the others coming so I hid so they wouldn't see me here and go through the 20 question thing on why I'm here and not at the shelter." Rocky thought about that answer. It was the fact that the shelter was being closed that made Justin not want to be there, and Rocky fully understood that. "You know the Power Rangers identities are NOT supposed to be known. The only reason Tommy's brother knows he is a Ranger is because if Tommy wouldn't have shown his brother, David would have been hell bent on finding him, and possibly trying to take on the Machine Empire by himself." Rocky said. Justin looked at him in awe. He had just found out the Power Rangers identities, and he was going to be in so much trouble if the others found out. "You're not going to tell the others I know are you?" Justin asked. Rocky again went into thought. The others needed a 5th member for the team, and Rocky was injured. "No, I have something better planned." he said. Rocky raised his communicator to his mouth and pressed a button on it. "Zordon do you read me?" he asked. Zordon then was heard over the communicator: "Yes Rocky. How are you?" Zordon had asked. "I'm in pretty bad shape right now. A young kid named Justin found out our identities because he was hiding under my bed when the others were here and he heard us talking. In order to keep him quiet, and to provide a healthy body to the others, I want to pass on my Blue Ranger powers to him. Is that alright?" Rocky asked. Justin couldn't believe what Rocky had just told Zordon. Rocky wanted him, Justin Stewart, a 12 year old kid, to become the Blue Ranger? Before he could say anything, Zordon began to speak. "Rocky, I give you permission to pass on your powers. You have been an excellent Power Ranger, an have defended the Earth greatly, and have made us all proud. Give Justin your communicator, and have him teleport here." Rocky motioned for Justin to come over and grab the communicator, and showed him the button that was used for teleporting. Justin then pressed the button, and was teleported off.

A few minutes later, Justin was in the Power Chamber. He looked around and saw 5 different colored tubes. He began to walk towards the blue one when a voice startled him. "Welcome to the Power Chamber young Justin." Justin turned around in shock to see a floating head in a tube talking to him. "Who are you?" Justin asked. He didn't want to sound rude or anything, but this was kind of weird. The head merely chuckled. "I am Zordon of Eltar, and mentor of the Power Rangers. You are here to become the newest Ranger, and perhaps the youngest Ranger ever." Suddenly a door opened and a robot came out. "Hello, I am Alpha 5. I am Zordon's assistnant, and I help with the technical issues when needed." the robot said. Justin turned from Alpha back to Zordon. "Alright, so I'm supposed to be the Blue Ranger, where do I start?" Justin asked. Alpha was the first to reply. "Well first we have to test you to make sure you can operate your Zord, the Mountain Blaster Turbo Zord." Soon Justin found himself inside the Zord. Alpha made him do basic things like parallel parking, turning and other stuff. Alpha also showed him how to go faster, buttons to use for when the Turbo Megazord was formed. After about half an hour, Justin left the Zord and walked into another room where there was a table with different colors squares. On the blue square he saw a wrist like thing and a key. Alpha then appeared next to him. "That is your Turbo morphed. You insert your key into the morphed and you will turn into the Blue Ranger." Justin then did as Alpha said and then he had a blue glow form around him. He was now in his Blue Ranger suit. He removed his helmet outside the room and set it down and went and looked into a mirror that appeared. Zordon then began to speak, "By accepting this honor, you are also accepting a great responsibility. As the newest Ranger, you must take your lead from the others and learn to use your new powers wisely. You will command the Mountain Blaster and be henceforth known as the Blue Ranger. Good luck and may the Power protect you." Justin then got into the Mountain Blaster and headed off to the others.

It was nightfall when Justin finally pulled up next to the others. Tommy was the first to notice and was giving the Mountain Blaster a weird look. Justin had opened the door, and he heard Adam say "Rocky?". Justin then finally shut the door and said "Wow, cool." Tanya then asked. "Justin what are you doing here?" "Rocky couldn't make it, so he sent me." "What are you talking about?" Adam asked. "Guys, I'm the new Blue Ranger! Isn't that cool or what?" The others took a minute to swallow this fact. "I was afraid I wasn't going to make it. Alpha had to give me a crash course in driving. Good thing you don't need a license to drive a Zord. So what are we doing here?" he had asked. "Well we need to find a way to get these Zords onto that ship." Tommy said
