Disclaimer: This is my first Power Rangers story, so be kind please. I appreciate reviews but will not pay attention to flames. The Power Rangers and other references to the show do not belong to me, they belong to Saban. The characters I have made up are my property.

Setting: This takes place right after "Power of Pink" I have taken the liberty of pretty much rearranging the galaxy and what not as it works better this way, Mirinoi and Kerova are now close to Earth, pretty much in the same 50 light year sphere. And I have taken the liberty of making up history between C2D and Lost Galaxy, also I am setting the date of launch for Terraventure as 2004.

Temporal Shift 056-A

Part 1

The familiar buzz of machinery was the first thing Kendrix was aware of as she came to. At first she wasn't quite aware of what was going on as her mind groggily came online. Her eyes pulled themselves open and the hazy blur of colour and light slowly focussed into existence as her memories from her previous experince came flooding back to her; 'I was in that energy column; I struck the sword... Cassie, is she all right? I must be in the Astroship.'

She began to take in the surroundings, and much to her dismay they looked nothing like the medical facilities of the Astroship or Terraventure; infact, most of the displays and machinery she saw seemed quite a bit more advanced from what she was used to. She was about to call out for someone when the door across from her bed opened and a man walked in.

"Good Morning, Ms. Morgan, my name is Doctor Pandit."

Kendrix focussed in on the man, He appeared to be an Indian man in his late 40s or early 50s, and his black hair was starting to turn white which contrasted his dark, brown skin. She began to open her mouth, but then felt it go slack when she stared aghast as he raised his hand over a table and what appeared as holographic displays flashed to life in front of him.

She was aware that Earth had just entered into the Interstellar scene, and that it had received a substantial technological advancement by the Kerovans, but she had never heard of the Kerovans having any of this. Her mind entered into analysis mode, and she began to put the facts together to establish where she was; 'Am I on another world? I haven't met many other species, but Maya's looked pretty much like humans, on the outside at least. And the Kerovans were pretty similar except for their hair... So one possibility is that I am on an alien world and that this Dr. Pandit is not human. Or I could have been in a coma... but I would have had to have been out for... several years." Her heart began to sink at that thought. 'Well, I better just put that theory to rest.'

"How long have I been out of it?" she coughed out, getting used to using her voice again after having given it a rest. She did not like the smile that spread across the doctor's face after she asked the question.

"Well, that depends on what you can tell us. In total, adding the day that you have been unconscious since you arrived here... I would have to say about 157 years."
