Angel Grove, 1999:

Kelly Oliver was in her room, practicing her karate. Although she was only 6 and a half, she was a very talented martial artist. Her family always joked that she was doing karate before she could walk. At the rate she was going, she would have her black belt by the time she was 10.

Tommy stood in the door way, watching his little sister. He had just gotten back from an extremely dangerous Ranger mission, but, of course, no one outside of the other rangers knew that.

Kelly did a roundhouse kick and saw her older brother. "TOMMY!" she squealed, running towards him. Her brother had only been gone a weekend, but it seemed like an eternity to little Kelly.

"Hey kid-o. How are you?" He said, picking her up.

"I'm good. Did you bring me anything?" She asked.

"Actually, I did." He handed her a necklace. Dangling from the chain was half a coin.

"Is that a bird in the coin?" Kelly asked while examining the necklace, her excitement clearly visible.

"Sure is. It's a falcon. Now, this necklace is extremely important. Never let it out of your sight and never ever lose it, okay?"

"Okay Tommy." Kelly answered, and immediately put the necklace on.

Angel Grove: Present Day

It was a week before the start of school and Kelly Oliver was running around the track at Angel Grove High. The necklace her brother had given her ten years earlier was still around her neck, casting a glare from where the sun hit it.

Kelly was the star of the Cross-Country team, and was also an amazing track runner. She was a 4th degree black belt and was one of the most athletic girls at Angel Grove High. She had red hair, blue eyes, was about 5'7", skinny, and had a great smile.

She finished her 6 mile run and walked over to Megan Hart, one of her best friends and one of the state's top gymnasts.

Megan's older sister, Kimberly, had been Tommy's girlfriend during most of their high school years. Megan looked like a clone of her sister, except Meg was a little bit taller and more muscular. She had the same long, straight brunette hair and was built an awful lot like Kim.

"Hey girl, you ready for school yet?" Kelly asked.

"Ugh, don't remind me. I'm going to be a junior in High School, and I haven't done anything significant in my life." Megan replied.

Kelly smiled. "I know the feeling. Anyway, don't worry. I've got a feeling we're going to be a part of something big this year."

Megan began playing with a half coin necklace that was dangling around her neck, "Yeah, I sure hope so."

"Hello, ladies." A voice behind them jokingly said.

The girls turned around to see John Lee Scott and Ryan DeSantos standing behind them.

John was Jason's little brother. He had a tall, athletic build and had short, dark brown hair. He had a strong jaw line, and was the extremely hot star quarterback of the football team.

Ryan was Rocky's younger brother. He resembled Rocky to a 'T', except he was a little shorter and was more muscular. He too played football and was the best running back the team had to offer. He wrapped his arm around his girlfriend Megan's waist and gave her a kiss on the check.

"Hey babe. What are you guys doing here?" Megan asked.

"Well, we just got done lifting for football, and we saw you girls and decided to say hi." Ryan answered.

"Well, I'm glad you guys did. It feels like we've all been so super busy this summer that we haven't been able to just hang out and relax." Kelly said.

"I totally agree," John said, as he adjusted his half coin necklace. "Okay, I know we've all had these necklaces forever, but I still can't get over how cool they are."

Ryan put his hand on his own necklace. "Yeah. It's pretty cool that our older siblings got all of us these necklaces. I wonder where they got them."

Meg shrugged. "I really have no idea. I've looked around for more of them to give to some friends, but I can't find them anywhere. They must have gotten them on one of those road trips they were always taking."

"Probably." said Rachel Campbell, who had walked up behind them while they were talking. She was accompanied by Logan Park, one of her best friends.

Rachel was Aisha's little sister. She had the same caramel skin as her sister. She was skinny and petite and had dark, straight hair.

Logan was Adam's little brother, and the school's star soccer player. He looked just like Adam looked in his younger days, except he had a buzz cut. He had a lean, athletic build to him.

"Well, wherever they got them, I'm glad we have them. I think they're pretty cool." Logan said.

"Me too." Kelly agreed. She was glad they were all talking together, for once. Although they were all best friends, they had become so busy with their different interest that they hardly had anytime to hang out together.

She looked at her watch. "Crap! Guys, if we don't get moving, we're going to be late for karate class!"

They started towards the Youth Center, when suddenly a rainbow of lights enveloped them, causing them to becoming temporarily blind and unable to move.
