My name is Madeline Ross and I used to be very good friends with the Power Rangers. Don't believe me? Sit and listen while I tell you my story.

It all first started in First Grade. My cousin Kimberly and I were playing on the jungle gym when some older kids started picking on Billy. Me, being the tough girl I was, walked over and told them to stop. Of course, they didn't, but I made such a fuss that a teacher came over and broke up our little group. Billy started to hang around us and we've been friends ever since.

Throughout Elementary School, Billy, Kim, Kim's best friend Trini and I were inseparable. The only problem with Billy was that he was a computer nerd. He was a really nice guy, but because of his being a nerd, he was a bully magnet. I liked him well enough though.

In Middle School, we were still a group, but Kim and Trini became a little distant. However, Billy and I were still close. I guess it was weird, having a boy as my best friend, but it just seemed right.

When we got to High School, Kim, Trini, Billy and I became close again. I even made a few newer friends. We all hung around, together or in our separate little cliques.

The second week of freshmen year, Billy shocked me. He asked me out. It was awkward at first, because I hadn't thought about him in any other way than best friends. But, we tried it and it worked out pretty well.

Then, the day I'll never forget. We were all hanging out at Ernie's Juice Bar; Kim, Trini, Billy, Zach, Jason and I. We weren't all together or anything, we were just in the same place. I left the room for two seconds, came back, and they were gone. It was really strange.

After that, they all started hanging out more and more and I was being left out. It thought it was odd, until Billy finally told me why they were around each other so often. It was because they were the Power Rangers. If Billy hadn't been so serious all the time, I would have laughed myself right out of the building. Since I was now in on the secret, we all hung out together.

There were various battles I was allowed to participate in and other things that I could do. The command center was awesome. Alpha was adorable with his cute voice, attitude and the "I yi yi yi yi!" and Zordon was pretty cool too, for an old guy. We fought hard to battle Rita and we did lots of good. We saved Kim's boyfriend Tommy from Rita's spell and he joined us as the new Green Ranger. He eventually lost his powers and left us for what we thought was forever. He came back though, as the new White Ranger that Alpha and Zordon had created.

After some time had passed, Trini, Zach and Jason were selected to become ambassadors for the new Peace Corps program. Three new students transferred to Angle Grove High and became our new Power Rangers. We had gotten to know them pretty well over the previous few weeks and were pleasantly surprised when Alpha and Zordon informed us they would be the new rangers.

Kim left us and moved to Florida to practice full-time for the Pan-Global games. The rangers and I were very upset, but we knew it was for the best. Kim had been dreaming since she was a little girl about performing for the Pan-Global games and it's what she really wanted. We saved another person from Rita, Kat. Rita used her just like she used Tommy. Kat became our new Pink Ranger. She wasn't my cousin, but I liked her well-enough.

Surprisingly, through all that, Billy and I were still together. We had our fights and arguments, but we never broke up. I really loved him and I truly believed he loved me.

Then, a horrible day came. Everyone in Angel Grove was turned into children. Billy, Alpha, Zordon and I worked tirelessly to find a way to change everyone back. It took a while, but we figured it out. Only Billy managed to change back, the rest of the rangers had to find Zeo Crystals in order to "grow up." It was weird having my boyfriend 10 years older than me, but he was nice about it, I guess. Eventually, everyone retrieved their Zeo crystals and the entire city grew older. The disappointing thing was that Aisha had chosen to stay in Africa and Tanya came in her place.

Sadly, something happened to Billy when he changed back to an adult. He wasn't able to receive powers any more. Jason came back and accepted the powers given by Trey, the Gold Ranger.

Because of the growth, Billy began to age. It started slowly, but happened faster and faster. Within a few days, he had aged over 40 years. Every time I saw him, he was older. I cried myself to sleep every night because I thought that the next day, he'd be dead.

The Aquitian Rangers came back to save Billy. They had found a way for him to stay young on Aquitar. The next day Billy left and I haven't seen him since. I've never cried so hard in my life. He promised to come back, once they've cured him.

I dream of him every so often. It's a really great dream. I'm sitting at my desk doing homework when he comes up behind me. I turn around and nearly faint. He kisses me… and then I wake up.

Hopefully, someday, he'll come back. I really, really hope that he will.

AN: Well, what do you think? This is a repost of a previous story I had up. I changed a few things including the main character's name. I'm going to rewrite it so let me know what you think so far. I know it's just a summary of everything that went on.
