A Cure for the Itch

Hey people!

Thanks for checking the story out.

As you'll probably realise, this is written from Kira's perspective. It's like in a diary. I hope I got into her character well, but if I didn't please let me know with any comments to how I could make it better? I would appreciate that immensely.

So, this story is in conjunction with my other new one 'Any Excuse For A Parade' which is the other main characters perspective. It wouldn't matter if you didn't read both but it might be a good idea? Anyway, on with the story!

Disclaimer: This is purely FICTION, hence the site. If it was real, it would have happened in the series and if I owned Power Rangers, Ninja Storm and Dino Thunder would still be on. So take the hint, I don't own Power Rangers at all. I also don't own any of the songs etc mentioned in this. 'Freak You Out' belongs to Emma Lahana.

Anyway, hope you enjoy!

Chapter 1

How rubbish was today? I mean firstly, I nearly got annihilated by that idiotic copying monster and now this! Most teenagers just have to worry about spots and homework, but not me. Me, I'm stuck with having the fate of the world resting on my shoulders. Oh goody!

I had to miss my gig at Cyberspace because of it, which upset me quite a bit. I had actually written this new song as well. It's called 'Freak You Out' and I'm very proud of it. It's the best thing I've produced in over a month. I've had a good muse though recently, not mentioning any names. You've probably guessed already. The way I go on about the guy, you'd think we were married. Truth is we're barely even friends. It's like a beauty and the beast story, just the opposite way around! Typical.

Back to the story I was telling. I don't think the others realise how much I actually love performing. It just gives me this major buzz that I don't or couldn't get from anything else. It gives me the same feeling that Ethan gets when completing a really hard computer game or how Connor feels when he scores the winning goal in the match. They just think that because I haven't truly completed anything, it can't be that good. Well it can.

That annoys me something rotten. I have to admit though, that whenever I do perform, they're always there, cheering in the crowd and they're, including Trent and Dr.O, the first people to say what they think about it. Well, not including the whole 'music video incident'. That was just appalling and I can't believe it was only Connor who had the guts to tell me what he really thought. Granted he was only confirming my feelings anyway but that's not the point. Let's not go into that now as that's a totally different story.

So anyhoo, I was hanging out with the guys after the monster attack in Cyberspace. I think the only positive point about the entire thing is that after every attack, Hayley gives us a free drink. ;p That sound's pretty Cassidyish doesn't it? I don't mean it but when you've been beaten black and blue, it's sometimes hard to see the plus side to it. I swear, my parents think I'm being bullied. They keep questioning me to where I've got my bruises and I'm sure there's a limit to how many times you can use the 'I walked into a door' excuse. I sometimes think it would be easier if we were Ranger's like Lightspeed Rescue. Everyone knew who the Ranger's were so they never had to hide it and make up stupid excuses. Don't get me wrong, I love my Ptera power and my Zord is my baby but sometimes it can get too much, you know?

I came home, around seven, only to be bombarded with questions. They were paranoid that I was out in the monster attack, which I was obviously, but they really don't need to know that. I was at Cyber Space all the time and then it went on to, 'When are you going to give up on this stupid singing idea and focus on getting a proper job?' I almost cried. I honestly did. It hurts to not have your parents support in things you do. To be fair, they've always supported me in everything I do, except this. My dad's a doctor and my mum's a nurse so they expect me to carry on the family tradition. Fat chance. I hate blood! I can't stand anyone being hurt so I justly doubt I'd be cut out for the medical profession. I don't think I'd like it and what's the point of doing something you don't enjoy? You'll only get filled with resentment. Oh, and it'll be really, really boring.

Then to top the entire day off, the icing on the cake, I think that's the saying anyway, I have to go on a trip; A FAMILY TRIP. My God…What are they trying to do, kill me with ennui? And we're not just going on a road trip either; we're going to visit my parent's best friends, the Brooke's. They used to live next door to us when I was small. They had a little boy I think. I'm not too sure about his name, David? Donny? You know, I'm just guessing, it's probably something completely different like Paul now. We were very close apparently and did everything together. Yep, we were that close that I don't even remember it. That's how close we were. They moved when I was about eight, so I've been told. Come to think of it, I do recall my parents always trying to get me to talk to someone on the phone and I always had this stupid reason not too. What can I say, I don't exactly like talking to people I don't know. I don't like talking to people I do know as a matter of fact, ask Cassidy for confirmation on that statement.

Now this complete trip is going to last God knows how long as it's the summer and that's what worries me. The fact that there can be monster attacks any day and I won't be there. Honestly, I think that's why my parents have decided to get away for a bit, to get away from the monster attacks. I had to use the Ranger Intercom to speak urgently to the team and they decided that I should, or better yet, I have to go. This is probably just to avoid difficulties that may arise and to stop any suspicion. I really don't know how they haven't worked it out yet though, since I'm always in yellow, I hang out with guys who wear red, blue and white and they're the Ranger's colours. Oh and the little, insignificant fact that whenever the Ranger's appear, we're nowhere to be found. That just proves how dumb some people are.

We decided that if I'm needed, I have to take the Ranger Express, i.e. the transportation system which Hayley has perfected recently. It should have me to the fight in less than a minute if all goes to plan so you know, I just have to find somewhere to ditch the boy wonder, who I'll no doubt be with on request from the guy with the wallet, and then bam, and I'll be off. Sounds all fun and games, don't it? I was really hoping it wouldn't be ready so I just wouldn't have to go, but you know, life's not all ha ha hee hee.

So I better go now as it is 11:30pm and I have to meet Connor tomorrow. Connor. Have I ever mentioned how hot that guy is? I mean, like wow. I can't believe I said that, in reality. It's so unlike me. I can't help it, the guy is fine and he knows it. In fact, I think the whole female population of Reefside knows it and that's why I stand no chance what so ever. Out of all the girls he could have, why would he chose a lone musician who looks like she got dressed in the dark? Ok, there goes all my self-esteem. Well done Kira.

Back to the point I was making; Connor is my 'puppy love' if you will. Shame he doesn't know it. The amount we fight about stupid things, he perchance thinks I hate him. So we argue a lot, so what? We possibly take it to an extreme but that doesn't matter, does it? I think our last argument was in fact about Trent and that evil spell he went through. Yep, I still stick up for Trent, even though he broke my heart. It hurt so much to see him date Krista after Prom. Allegedly, they sat together during maths and just hit it off. He apologised and everything but it still stings. That's when me and Connor started getting closer. He liked Krista for real and then she just dumps him like a ton of bricks. I felt for him as I was going through the same thing. We became closer but not that close. We still argue. We're like at opposite ends of the spectrum. Therefore, it certainly came as a shock to everyone, including Trent when I defended him against Connor. It is hard to believe Trent nearly wiped me off the face of the earth at one point but that's technically not his fault considering he was evil. Still, it's quite hard to forgive him. At least, I'm more forgiving than Connor. He's still mad and weary of him and to be honest, I don't blame him. Then again, Trent has saved our butts more times than I care to remember and he always comes through.

Ethan continuously winds me up about my crush on Connor. I sound so pre-mature. Hell, maybe I should just tell him? What's the worst he could do? Ah, yeah, obliterate me in a pile of smoke and a couple of flames, although he would probably have to try hard, to a certain extent. I'm getting better at my fighting, since he's been helping me, that is why I'm meeting him tomorrow. We have sparing matches in the woods. If you ask Trent (we're still close friends, now I've got over it…just) or Ethan though, we'd be doing something else. Yeah, I wish. The most contact I've ever had with Connor, apart from fighting him that is, is a kiss on the cheek after the dance at Prom. It's so unfair.

Alright, I'm definitely going now because I could stay up all night and write about how much I like him, but what's the point, I'll never say it and it doesn't make any different if it's never coming out.

Later.

Kira.
