Hi, everyone! I haven't written a story for a long time, and the last one I tried to write I gave up on because I completely lost the storyline. This is my first Power Rangers fic, so don't hate…constructive criticism please, it would really be appreciated because I want to put out the best story for you guys.

Oh, I'm changing some things for SPD. The fact that it's only 20 years in the future makes it seem really unlikely from the alien aspect, so I'm putting SPD in the year 2068. I hope that doesn't push anyone's buttons.

I don't own any Power Rangers, but I was Kimberly for Halloween once…;D

SPD Headquarters, New Tech City 2068 A.D.

Commander Doggie Cruger was walking the halls of SPD periodically checking in on the separate cadet teams' training exercises. He had just finished watching B Squad work on a simulation where they had to use their powers to defeat their enemy. They had completed the exercise, but not without some problems. Bridge used his sensing to find the criminal, then Syd attacked with her fists of iron, and Jack would make his way through the rocks with his molecularzation to catch the criminal off guard; when they were tired Z would surround him with duplicates and Sky would shield and land punches when he could. The problem was that they were overly exhausting themselves; Sky kept trying to shield too many people at once and he was getting tired, Z was working with too many clones, Jack was almost getting stuck in the middle of the rocks, among other things. Cruger saw this and was getting ready to stop the simulation and lecture the cadets when, "Commander to the Command Center…It's urgent!" Kat's voice came drifting through the speaker system.

"What is it Kat?" "Commander there has been a disturbance in the power grid…right above us." Right as Kat finished there was a crack and suddenly there was a girl cowering in the corner. She was curled into a ball with her back up to the ceiling; it looked like she was trying to protect something. Her hair was dirty blonde, but he couldn't tell much more because of her position. "Commander, she looks severely hurt. Maybe we should get her to the medical wing." "Yes, that would be a good idea." Commander Cruger went over to the girl and started to pick her up. As he leaned in he could hear soft pleads coming from the girl, "Please, just leave me alone…please, don't touch me." She seemed to see him and curled up as tight as possible. "My name is Commander Doggie Cruger of SPD, I'm not going to hurt you. We want to get you to the medical wing. Just trust me." The girl looked up and let Cruger take her in his arms and start to carry her. "Can you tell me your name?" "Anna-Marie…Rylen…Martin" she managed to choke out between pain-racked shudders. "It's going to be ok Ms. Martin, we'll get you to a doctor."

Meanwhile, the B Squad cadets were hanging around the Rec Room trying to find something to do. Sky was reading his SPD Handbook, Syd was reading a glamour magazine, Jack was sparring with Z, and Bridge was standing on his head trying to think of a new upgrade for RIC. Just then they heard people running down the hall, when they all went to the door they saw Cruger running toward the medical wing with a strangely dressed girl in his arms. She was wearing blue jeans and a blue t-shirt. Syd turned to her teammates "Those clothes went out of style a long time ago." "Come on Syd, she looked like she was banged up pretty badly." "Bridge is right Syd. Lets go see what's happening." Jack said as he ran out of the Rec Room and after Cruger. "What are we waiting for? Let's follow him." Sky yelled as he and the rest of the rangers ran out of the room.

"I need a doctor…NOW!" Cruger ran into the medical wing and was led straight to a room where he lay Anna down on the bed. Cruger looked down at the injured girl and noticed a red purse, 'That must be what she was trying to protect. It must be important to her.' "Anna, are you going to be ok? I'm getting you a doctor right now." A doctor came walking up to Cruger and took one look at Anna and yelled for more help. "I need some pain medication, some bandages, and a hyper-cast. On the double!" Three robo-docs started buzzing around trying to find what the doctor needed as he went up and started to assess Anna. He asked Cruger questions while he checked her over, "Where is she from?" "I don't know, she just appeared here." "What is here name?" "Anna-Marie Rylen Martin, but I've been calling her Anna for short." "How did she get here?" "Again, I don't know, but when she appeared in the Command Center she was huddled over this bag." He held up her purse and the doctor put it on a table at the end of the room. "We need to get these pants and her shirt off." The doctor obtained a pair of scissors from the robo-docs, and was about to start cutting off her jeans when he heard soft protesting noises from the girl. "Please, don't…there are ways to get them off without cutting." The doctor looked surprised that she had spoken. "This is my favorite shirt and jeans." The doctor gave her another look, "You care more about your clothes than your arm?" Anna grimaced, she wasn't planning on explaining it this much, "No, it's just that I know that they can be taken off without causing me much pain and without ruining them." "Fine, how are we going to get your clothes off without cutting them?" "Start with undoing my belt followed by the button and the zipper on my jeans and then just slid them off." She stopped to catch her breath, "Then with the shirt help me slide my good arm out of the sleeve and then slide the rest over my head, and then slide it off my bad arm." The doctor looked at her like she was mildly crazy and he looked at Cruger for what to do. "Go ahead with what she says and then we can get a full examination in." The doctor worked the belt buckle undone and then started to slide the jeans down Anna's hips and legs. Cruger quickly covered her lower half with a blanket. Then the doctor managed to get Anna's shirt off the way she suggested. Again Cruger rushed the blanket up Anna's prone form. She smiled a small grateful smile at him before closing her eyes in a painful grimace.

The B-Squad came skidding up to the doors to the medical wing and found that they had been securely shut. Jack spun around to face his team, "Great, the doors are locked. What are we going to do now?" The group looked at each other and tried to brainstorm. Then Bridge got a glint in his eye and started to take off his glove. Sky looked at him in confusion, "Bridge, what are you doing?" Bridge turned to look at him, "I'm going to try and test the energy to see what's going on. If we can't be in there we might as well see what's going on as much as we can." The others nodded in agreement as Bridge finished removing his leather glove, placed his hand on the door, and closed his eyes. The others watched as a range of emotions flitted over Bridge's face. Finally he removed his hand from the door, "The person we saw Cruger carrying was a girl. She's been hurt badly and they're trying to help her. I can feel her pain and the other's concern. It's almost an overload, so I'm actually glad the door is closed." Z put her hand on his shoulder and gave him a smile, "Thanks Bridge, don't try and over do yourself though. We don't need another person in the med wing." "Guys we should probably go and leave them be. Commander will probably fill us in later." Jack said as he started to walk away from the medical wing. The others started to follow Jack back to the Rec room, except for Bridge who hung back and looked at the door. "Bridge, are you coming?" Sky yelled over his shoulder. "Uh, yeah…I'll be right there." With one last look Bridge ran down the hallway and caught up with his squad.

Alright, chapter one! Tell me what you guys think, I don't have a beta, so don't be too harsh. Much love…Hoogs
