Turbo Meets Dino Thunder
Disclaimer- I don't own Power Rangers Dino Thunder or Power Rangers Turbo just the story line. And the made up History of what has happened with different teams and how Justin has helped them.
Chapter 1
Justin Stewart had changed his name to John Smith because he wanted a normal life all his former Ranger friends had finally given up trying to contact him they had gone round to his house a few times after he hadn't answered and saw a new post box in the garden with the name Smith on it. The only person who hadn't tried to call him was Tommy the last time he'd seen Justin after the Power Chamber had been destroyed was when Justin told Tommy his father had died and it had been obvious to him Justin would need time to deal with the loss so he left him a phone number to use when he was ready that had been years ago. years later Rocky and TJ had told Tommy they hadn't seen or heard from Justin in years and a search of his name came up blank Tommy was now worried so he tried to find Justin but he came up with nothing so he searched for recent sightings of the Blue Turbo Ranger. Tommy new that Justin's Turbo Morpher was still working because TJ had told him a few years ago after the forever red mission he seemed to think that Storm Blaster had recharged it. The search revealed the last sighting of the Blue Turbo Ranger was in Blue Bay Harbor a few months ago it seamed that Justin had helped the Ninja Storm Rangers for a bit but then sightings had dried up after the Rangers had lost their powers and their enemy Lothor had been destroyed.
John Smith had seen the advertisement for a teachers assistant at Reefside High School he applied for the job and received a letter from the Principal saying that he'd got the job and he would be working with the new science teacher who hadn't been appointed yet so John packed his belongings in to Storm Blaster and headed for Reefside found a small house that suited his needs perfectly he moved in and started to modify the garden he made sure nobody could tell whose Garden Storm Blaster came from if he had to Morph into his suit if anything happened.
A Few weeks passed John had sorted his house and garden out he had even got to know the town he was in he had found a nice little café called Hayley's Cyberspace it was the local hang out in town and the students at the high school and the tech collage hung out their. It was nice it reminded him of Ernie's youth center in Angel Grove but he decided that this place was a bit nicer plus their wasn't all the work out equipment and practice mats on the floor it was a regular café with a area for kids to use the computers. Their was a girl sitting on a stage playing a guitar and another guy was sitting at the computers typing furiously.
A few days later John drove to the school to start the first day of his new job he walked down the corridor until he found the room number he was looking for then as he looked down he saw two names on it. 'Dr Oliver & Mr Smith' The name on the plaque read John thought for a minuet 'where do I know that name Dr Oliver'. Then it suddenly hit him "Nah it can't be, can it?" he said to himself he knocked on the door and entered and saw the teacher Dr Oliver looking out a window at the back of the classroom. What he didn't know was that Tommy had seen him get out of Storm Blaster and new who he was "Hi Dr Oliver I'm John Smith I'm your assistant" he said introducing himself to the other man.
Tommy turned round and even with the short hair John recognised him "Nice to meat you John Smith tell me what qualifications have you got for this job?"
"Uhm, not that much but I am eager to learn from you this is the first real job I've had. I just finished Collage in Blue Bay Harbor were I did a course in science"
"Cool good collage, pity about the rest of the town though" Tommy said trying to let John know he new he was really Justin
"What do you mean?"
"Oh you know the frequent Monster attacks"
"Oh no that doesn't bother me I mean the Power Rangers were their to save the town"
"Yeah at least you won't have to worry about that here, it's a nice quiet town here" said Tommy as the first students entered the classroom.
'That's it jinx the town why don't you?' thought Justin to himself questioning himself on if it was Tommy with a remark like that.
"Ok is everyone hear?" asked Tommy as everyone calmed down and took their seats he spotted three empty chairs and said to John "Mr Smith would you please see if you can find the three missing students and I'll begin the class"
"Ok Dr Oliver" John said as he left the room.
John wondered if Tommy had recognised him before he could dwell on that he started to walk down the corridor and then he saw three students being brought towards him by the principal she looked at him and said "I believe these three are for you class and they have detention all week for not getting to class fast enough"
John looked at them one seemed like a computer guy smart and almost reminded him of stories he'd heard about Billy but not really a challenge for him, the next one looked like a typical Jock he did wonder why they had been hangin together and the last one was a girl who was carrying a guitar case He recognised two of them from Hayley's Cyberspace café the girl frequently was in their playing her guitar and the computer guy was always on the computers, he hadn't seen the Jock before but by the look of him he was a soccer player.
"This way you three?" he said leading them towards the classroom
As they entered Dr Oliver looked at them and motioned for them to take their seats which they did as the rest of the class returned to focusing on their books something really strange happened the fire alarms suddenly went off on their own they evacuated the classroom and the principal came walking over to Tommy's class and stopped in front of Ethan the computer guy.
"I guess you think this is funny Mr James?" she asked
"I don't know what you're talking about" he said
"Don't play games with me it has your name all over it"
"Look Principal Randall he didn't have anything to do with that he had only just opened his workbook" said Dr Oliver
She turned towards Mr Smith and said "Is that true Mr Smith?"
"Yes it is Principal Randall"
"Ok but I'll be keeping a close eye on your class with the trouble makers that are in it"
"Don't forget you three have detention all week for you behavior this morning" she said then turned and walked off
"Ok back in everyone lets get this lesson started before it's time for your next class?" said Dr Oliver. Everyone went back into the classroom and they finished the lesson.
"Mr McKnight, Mr James and Miss Ford please wait a minuet?" They did as they were told Dr Oliver promised to send John with them to the next class so they didn't get in trouble with Principal Randall again "So what happened earlier why were you late for my class?"
"Well you see we got lost so we sat down on a bench to look at are map and try to find the classroom then she came up and had a go at us for skipping classes?" said Kira Ford
"Ok that is the lamest excuse in the world and I should know I've used most of them" said John
"He's right" said Tommy "that was a lame excuse I'll give you credit for not using the we needed the toilet line"
"Ok we'll be honest" said Conner McKnight
"Go on then?"
"Well I want to be a soccer player and I was practicing my soccer skills. This class doesn't help me with that" said Conner
"Yeah I want to be a computer programmer I can reprogram anything that's why Principal Randall called me a trouble maker, see I accidentally reprogrammed the school sprinklers and set them off as Principal Randall walked by wetting her. Besides I know most of this" said Ethan
"I want to be a musician and Randall caught me playing my guitar. She told me I needed a license to play it on school grounds. I even told her that people who play a musical instrument have a better chance of getting to college and she told me that I wasn't college material can you believe the cheek of her, anyway sorry about the rant she is just so annoying. Besides all this class might do is help me find some original lyrics" said Kira
"Look I know this might sound strange coming from a teacher but if you don't want to be in this class at least come in and sit down make out your doing the work so Randall doesn't give you guy's detention again?"
"Ok thanks Dr Oliver you're a cool teacher"
"The last person to call me cool disappeared years ago so it's nice to be called it again?"
"Who was the person?"
"I considered him a friend his name was Justin he would be about 19/20"
"What happened to him?"
"Nobody knows he disappeared last time I tracked him down he was in Blue Bay Harbor about a six months ago but since then nothing he's vanished again" Tommy was trying to guilt trip John into reveling himself to be Justin but he almost new it wouldn't work
"Don't worry Dr Oliver, I'm sure you'll find him again" said Ethan
"Yeah he'll probably show himself when I least expect it"
"Wait a minuet did you say he'd be 19/20?"
"Yeah why?"
"How old was he when you first met him?"
"12 and me and the rest of our friends would have been 17/18"
"How did you meet him?" Asked John deciding to see if Tommy could remember.
"It was before a karate tournament Justin's father worked away a lot so he would stay at the Angel Grove Shelter he liked it their he had friends their. Also his father used to teach karate before Justin's mother/his Wife died. He closed the karate classes down and got an office job he couldn't focus. But Justin was one hell of a fighter for his age so me and my friends allowed him to join us at the Youth Center were me Adam and Rocky would teach advanced karate lessons, anyway the shelter was experiencing financial problems and almost had to close down. Their was a karate tournament being held and the prize was $25,000 so me, Adam and Rocky entered but Rocky hurt himself while training he fell out of a ring while attempting a spinning heel kick just as he landed Justin and a group of kids from the shelter arrived they were going to watch us practice."
"Did the shelter have to get shut down?" asked Conner
"No when we realised Rocky couldn't compete we wanted Justin to take Rocky's place but he was too young and the organizers wouldn't let him replace Rocky. Justin never new that we even invited one of the judges to see him train so he could decide if Justin could be the third person on are team and just when things looked bad an old friend came to town Jason had been the karate instructor at the shelter before Justin's father. Jason had left Angel Grove about 3 months previous but he had kept in contact and knew of the problems the shelter was going through and wanted to help so he came back and he took Rocky's place, we won and the shelter stayed open. I have a picture of me with Justin it was taken just after we had beaten the Stone Canyon team in the final" Tommy looked through his briefcase and found the picture he showed it to them and when John saw it he turned away he hadn't realised how much they had gone through to try and get him to replace Rocky and how much they had truly trusted him. He had hurt his friends by ignoring them and changing his name so they had no way of knowing if he was ok, hurt or worse.
"You know if you want I could create a program and we could find out what he could look like now?" said Ethan
"You know what that's not a bad idea at least if I saw him in the street I'd know it was him. But for now John would you mind escorting them to their next class?"
"Ok, come on then let's get you to class before Randall gives you double detention"
John had taken them to their next class and headed back to the classroom he wondered how Tommy had been able to track him to Blue Bay Harbor, then he realised Tommy must have searched for the Blue Turbo Morphers energy that was why he had know Justin had been their. He reached the room he and Tommy used but as he got their he saw Randall in their he opened the door and heard her say
"The regular teacher can't cover detention tonight so it's up to you to do it John hasn't got enough teaching experience to cover it"
"Ok but I'll have to take them with me I have an appointment at the museum tonight?"
"Fine as long as they don't have any fun"
"Ok then, I'll take John with me as well"
Randall turned and walked out of the classroom
"What was all that about?" asked John
"Nothing I'm doing the detention cover tonight but I have an appointment at the museum so you're coming as well so you can keep an eye on them while I'm busy"
"Ok I'll follow you in my jeep"
"Good, you know that jeep looks familiar?" said Tommy
"Does it I never really thought it looked like anything"
"How long you had it?" Tommy was still trying to trip John up
"I've had it for a few years since I passed my test why?"
"Oh nothing I could have sworn it belonged to my friend"
"Well who was your friend that person you were talking about earlier?"
"Yeah Justin he had a car just like that"
"The person I bought it from did say that he wanted a new start to life"
"Do you mind if I ask how much you paid for Stor- sorry I meant the jeep?"
"No I don't mind I paid $25,000 for the jeep"
"Oh, not bad you got a nice Jeep for that"
"Yeah I really did the guy said it was special and I must admit it really is"
The two fell silent as the room filled up for the next class and both were intrigued as to what might happen tonight.
A/N those of you who are confused don't worry his name will soon return to Justin well except Randall just so she can't hate him like she does Tommy seeing as she knows he's a Ex/Current Ranger but she doesn't recognise the Name John Smith as a Power Ranger.
