Dana and Carter - Chapter 1 / Taken
Dana's POV
Carter came and sat next to me in the food hall and I couldn't help but look at him, he was so cute and I have had a crush on him since the day we met. I've always fancied a man in uniform! I felt a little like a stalker sometimes as I read through his file to learn more about him and I was suprised every time I read the part of his file that said his mother had died when he was young and his dad was an alcoholic who had been in and out of jail for the last 35 years. How did Carter manage to become such a great guy with no support from anyone at all? I get why he felt a little withdrawn sometimes, he's not used to having such a big family care about him and look after him.
The alarms ringing loudly brought me out of my thoughts and we ran as fast as we could to transport where Ms Fairweather had just installed a new system in the car which told us where the demon was and gave a live video link to the area where the attack was happening so we could see what was going on and access the situation before we were even there. Thank God for Ms Fairweather coming up with all if these new amazing pieces of technology that we can use to make everything easier for us.
We arrived at the area where the demon was attacking, the demon watched as the Batlings chased and scared people, we jumped out of the car and stood in a line with Carter in the middle "Ready?" He shouted.
"Ready" we shouted back.
"Lightspeed rescue!" We all chanted and morphed into our respective colours before fighting against the Batlings, there seemed to be more then normal and they were putting up a bigger fight then normal. I could see them scaring a little girl who had obviously been separated with her parent so I went over to help her fighting the Batlings away from her.
Two of them came out of nowhere and grabbed my arms so I couldn't fight them back. Another one popped up out of nowhere and took my battle blaster out of the holster and shot at me with it, the two Batlings that had ahold of me let go as the blast sent me flying backwards. I looked up and seen the little girl running away and a Batling chasing her so I stood up and went after them, I could hear Carter calling me back but I needed to save that little girl!
I followed them into a disused warehouse where everything suddenly became too quiet for my liking. I spotted the little girl out of the corner of my eye so I ran over to her and she stopped when she seen I was a power ranger and she was safe but she smiled at me with a really eerie smile and transformed into a Batling. This whole thing was a trap to lure me or at least one of the power rangers out on their own, another three Batlings came out of nowhere and stood in front of me getting ready to attack me "V Lancer!" I called and seconds later the V Lancer was in my hand and I went in for the attack.
"Hello pink ranger. My name is beezer" I turned around and seen the demon that had ordered the Batlings to attack us "You look a little tired to me" he laughed and threw what looked like stingers at me but I managed to put my V Lancer up in front of me and protect myself but one got me... In the upper arm. I fell to the ground and I was so hurt I un-morphed and watched from on the ground as Beezer came towards me laughing with the Batlings in tow then my eyes closed and I don't know what happened.
Carter's POV
I called Dana as she chased after a little girl and a Batling and I went to follow as she ignored my order to come back but dozens of Batlings came out of nowhere and just attacked me, I have never seen so many Batlings at once there was obviously something major going down today and I needed to know what. The demon that was here when we first arrived had disappeared which was strange, normally they at least fight us first before disappearing then they come back we fight, the demon is destroyed, the demon grows, we bring out the megazords and defeat the demon once and for all... Why was today so different?
"Rangers I have lost signal on Dana" Ms Fairweather stated over the comm system.
"I seen her run after a Batling and a little girl, I'll see if I can find her" I answered back and finally managed to get the Batlings off of me.
I ran in the direction which I seen her run too but there was nothing but an old warehouse, I went inside and instantly found Dana's morphed on the floor by the entrance "Guys I found her morpher but there is no sign of her here" I said over the comm system to get everyones attemtionnand it worked.
"We're on our way to you now, the Batlings just disappeared" Joel said.
Moments later the rangers where standing next to me where I found Dana's morpher "There's no sign of the Batlings or the demon now and Dana hasn't got her morpher. Do you think that they took her and made sure her morpher didn't go with her, you know so she couldn't fight back as good?" Kelsey questioned.
"It's a possibility.. Come on lets get back to the Aqua Base" I told them.
We arrived at the Aqua Base ten minutes later to see everyone in a rush trying to find out what happened to Dana. Captain Mitchell called us all into the meeting room where we were all gathered on our first day here "How could this happen?" He asked angrily "You all know about safety in numbers, why was she allowed to just go off on her own like that with no one woth her? What if the whole thing was a trap to get a ranger on their own?" He questioned.
"Sir I'm really sorry that this happened but when I seen Dana going after the girl to help her I did try and call her back but she either didn't hear me or ignored me and carried on. I did try to go after her but the Batlings were really strong today and there was a lot more of them then they're usually was and then they just disappeared... Sir as leader of the team I accept full responsibility for what happened" I told him.
He sighed and sat down in a chair opposite us "I can't blame you for her running off. It sounds like Dana to just run off if she thinks she's helping someone but I think that might have been a trap to one of you on their own, she has no morpher so she can't morph or communicate with anyone and we don't know of she's injured or not. What do you know about this demon that was there?" He asked us all with a sigh.
"Nothing really, the demon watched as the Batlings attacked us and then he disappeared then a few minutes later the Batlings disappeared, it was a strange fight sir, there were lots more of them and they were stronger then normal... There is really is something serious going down right now and we don't know what" Chad said.
"I think that when the Batling had Dana the demon went and helped or something then when she was taken they all disappeared they had taken what they had come for... A power ranger" Kelsey stated.
We were all silent for a moment and then Captain Mitchell spoke "I suggest you try and rest until we know where Dana is there really isn't a lot you can do until then. I'm going to try and get hold of Ryan and see of he can come and help us" he said and we all saluted before leaving and going to our rooms.
