PART1
The little girl bounced along the edge of the lake "so why did mommy say we came to earth I like home better don't you"she asked her doll
A boy about a year older came by" ummmmm...... little girl it not a good idea to get close to the...."the brown haired girl's doll fell in
"Noooooooooooooooo!!! Iashia" she reached for the doll but sliped into the water.
"hold on!!" the boy dove in. she grabbed his arm and was brought back to shore.
"Iashia come to me!!" the doll floated out of the water and into her hand
"you okey little one" she smiled at the boy
"I'm Jenna Hammond" she extended her hand
"Tyler TrueHeart" he shook "now Jenna stay away from 'heartbreak lake' okey"
"okey..... im not even from here"She saw her mom comeing
"I have to go........... nice to meet you Tyler and I hope I do again"
He waved goodbye
"As do I Jenna" he didn't see her again for years.

When she returned she was no longer 8 but 12.Her hair was longer, her eyes brighter.
"Tyler!!!!" she ran to him.he hugged her tight.
"Jenna I wondered when you would return!!!" she smiled
"we're back for the summer!!!" his friends came by
"Tyler who's the babe!!!" Jenna looked at Tyler then his friends
"im NOT just any babe" she held onto Tyler "im HIS babe"she kissed his passionately
"yeah boys so back off!!" he pushed them as him and Jenna walked away. she smiled at him as he grabbed her hand.
"what am I your girlfriend now" he smiled
"maybe"
Her parents came around the corner to see their daughter hand-in-hand with a boy. Andros went crazy
"hey you!!!" Jenna turned to see her father
"dad!!!!" Ashley gave Andros a look
"Andros!! This is the boy I told you about the one who saved our daughter"
"oh that boy......im grateful ........Jenna come with us" Jenna let go of him and went to her father. Tyler never saw her again


it was a few years after their last meeting and Tyler was to meet his uncles old friends
"Tommy, do I have to? The old rangers always make me feel so inferior!" he complained stamping his foot sharply on the ground, Tommy looked serious
"Look Tye I promised the guys they'd finally get to meet you, for eltars sake, what would jenna think?" he asked, Tyler fell silent, J the girl he'd saved years earlier and his only weakness
"okay but first let me talk to max, I have to make my excuses!" he said before pulling his mobile from his pocket
"hey maxie.... Look remember I told you I'd be out of town, well it looks like it'll be for a few days, keep the others in line! I'm counting on you!" he said into the answering machine, Tommy grimaced he had refused kathrine entrance to meet tyler and yet he knew she already had, all the way to his old friends Tommy noticed his nephew was dragging his feet
"you'll see her again Tye, the powers work in strange ways I should know!" tommy assured him, Tyler just huffed
When they arrived at Billy's house Tyler was still fuming
"by eltar yourself Tommy!" Billy chuckled as Tommy pushed tyler into the room, looking around Tyler saw nearly fifteen or less pairs of eyes turn to him, scanning the room he caught sight of Jason and gave a sigh of relief
"Jason, help!" he thought to himself but Jason just shook his head
"frazzle to you then Jason!" tyler said pulling his tounge out
"charming!" Aisha noted as she walked up to tyler
"why are all your friends giants tommy?" Tyler asked
"we're not, your just still young!" aisha laughed, Tyler huffed before moving away to let the old friends talk, a he walked the rooms in Billys house he got the feeling he wasn't as wanted as his uncle had said
"don't give me that sower look true heart your dad would go spare!" Rocky de santo demanded
"Rocky! Yikes I didn't recognize you!" tyler cried,
"mabey because I'm stood behind carlos!" rocky said stepping round his fellow Mexican ranger
"carlos, lightstar black, its an honour!" tyler said holding out his hand for carlos to shake, carlos waved him off
"the one you should be honoured to meet is Andros! He saved the world! We just stood by him!" carlos requested
"Andros? Why is that name so damn familiar?" Tyler asked himself as he walked towards billy's 'lab' which was really an old garage
"get a clue Tyler you're the green ranger now, and Andros is the guy who saved the world for you to be that!" he demanded to himself as he worked, as he stood behind the desk a shiver ran down his spine, looking up he saw Ashley pass
"l.s yellow!" he sighed
Tyler? a voice suddenly echoed in his mind, stopping tyler dead in his tracks it filled his head with the same feeling he got when jenna was in the room
"J?... what the hell!! Just cos I'm in a bad mood I imagine shes here, shes not even from earth!" Tyler demanded stamping his foot sharply once more, suddenly he heard a soft giggling from behind him like that of a fairy, turning he almost fainted
"Jenna... I don't believe it!" he exclaimed
"believe it!" jenna demanded wrapping her arms around his neck
"Jenna!" Andros demanded from the door, tyler turned and suddenly felt deadly sick, Andros was stood in the door looking even more pale than usual
"now I remember were I've heard the name Andros before, that's you sir isn't it! Not only are you jennas father but you're the red lightstar ranger!" Tyler exclaimed in a light hiss, Andros smiled weakly
"that I am Kid!" he replied
"Andros, I see you've met my nephew!" Tommy greeted as he advanced on the scene
"your... you mean this boy is..."
"Tyler true heart green ranger of earth!" Tyler announced, at his side Jenna almost fainted, Andros smiled
"well I'm sorry I ever yelled at you young man rangers have to stick together!" Andros apologized before walking with tommy back to the house, turning to Tyler jenna smiled
"daddy won't interrupt anymore, now he knows your one of us!" she said faintly,
"us?? What do you mean jenna?" tyler asked, Jenna smiled before producing her yellow lightstar morpher from her pocket
"not the only one with power old friend!" she laughed, Tyler smiled
"Jenna how old are you now?" he asked
"16 and your 17!" she replied, secretly jenna was scanning his mind finding out everything that had changed in her hero's life
"you can let go of me jenna not like I'm going anywhere is it!" Tyler noted poiting down at jennas hands that were rapped firmly around his waist, when jenna stepped back tyler took in how much she'd changed in his own way, her hair was easy to reconise as like her fathers people
"man Kavorans have style!" Tyler laughed as he knelt down
"at least I know I out height someone!" he laughed, Jenna scowled it wasn't her fault she was a year younger than him
"come on!" she demanded grabbing tylers hand and pulling him out of the garage and towards the park
"Yikes!" Tyler exclaimed pulling jenna to a stop when he saw where she was leading him
"no no and no!" he demanded pointing over at the lake
"its been twelve years since we were last here!" jenna sighed as though it was an anniversary
"yeah and my uncle is gonna have a fit!" tyler exclaimed scrambing back to his feet
"Why?" jenna asked, Tyler pointed towards the other side of the lake
"my com's still down!" he said as the monster advanced, instinctively he stepped infront of jenna and held his hands up in the ninja morph
"ninja ranger power now!" he demanded before flipping towards the monster,
"the names elgar!" elgar laughed as he blasted tyler against a tree
"my names Tyler! And your not gonna live long enough to tell anyone!" tyler said leaping back to his feet
"another one of the long haired kids, man zordon can really pick them!" divatox cackled from behind elgar.
Inside the newly built command centre the old rangers watched as jenna joined the fight
"do they even have a clue?" Ashley laughed
"not one Ash, Andros kept them apart so long!" Tommy replied as jenna was thrown against a tree,
back at the fight Tyler had, had enough
"no one hurts her jenna and gets away with it!" he thought as he lifted his hand to the sky, before he could make his move divatox and elgar vanished cowardly, turning he ran to jennas side
"be more careful who you trust Jenna, monsters like that have been around for centuries!" he warned
"I wouldn't need to be if you were by my side!" she thought as he de morphed, lifting her hand she stroked a wound on the side of tylers face
"you got that for me!" she cooed
"used to it, I've gotta be in this line of work!" tyler replied kneeling down
"I'm glad your back jenna, I was wondering if I'd ever see you again!" he cooed silently
"why are you whispering?" jenna asked loudly
"shh, both our coms are on, I can hear the static!" tyler replied, Tyler and Jenna stayed at the lake till late at night
"this may be our last time together for a while again J!" Tyler cooed as Jenna leant against him starring at the stars
"not anymore, its gonna be as if we live next door, I can come whenever I want, and you can come to ko-35 as well!" jenna replied, Tyler shook his head
"I've got commitments here on earth J, My dad would kill me if I missed school! Then theirs the rangering!" Tyler complained, he really wanted it to be true he wanted to be able to see jenna more than every few years but Jason had taught him that rangering take priority
"get a clue Tyler, shes a ranger too!" Jason demanded from behind them, leaping to his feet Tyler bowed honarably to his mentor, Jenna watched lovingly
"okay enough with tradition, I said rangering takes priority, but not over a life long friendship!" Jason laughed as his closed tylers hand around jennas.
And so it was agreed Tyler would go to ko-35 and stay with Jenna till Billy called them back
