Fatal Treasure
Prologue: Unfortunate News
It was a lazy Saturday afternoon. RJ had closed the pizza parlor so the Jungle Fury team could practice. They were in the middle of free sparring when Fran burst in, flailing her arms, frazzled by something she had read in the paper.
Casey was the first to get to Fran and calm her down to a coherent state. The others soon gathered around to hear what upset the Jungle Karma Pizza (JKP) employee so much.
"Fran, what's wrong?" the spirit of the tiger asked, putting one hand on her shoulder and looking eye-to-eye with her.
"Yes, what's made you so upset, Fran?" RJ spoke up, in his soothing, nonchalant voice.
"The – the . . ." It was too outrageous to formulate the words out loud.
"Go ahead, Fran," Lily encouraged, as Dominic gave her a firm head nod that is was okay to continue.
Fed up with the wait, and knowing that Fran was beyond the capabilities to articulate what she read; Theo gently took the newspaper from her and stepped away from the group.
The blue ranger froze. "No way," he breathed.
"What is it?" Casey asked; the hair on the back of his neck standing. The group shifted over to the Asian and waited.
After a minute, Theo pulled the paper down from his face and looked at his friends, "Two rangers from the Overdrive team died."
