ENTER RITO REVOLTO PT 1

AUTHOR'S NOTE/DISCLAIMER

Power Rangers belongs to Haim Saban and Nickelodeon. This is a major revamping of "The Ninja Quest Pt 1-4". This will be two separate stories but have the Junior Police Patrol angle. Obviously, some parts of the joining of the police academy are being sped up for this, but I hope you enjoy anyway. Reference to "The Ninja Encounter Pt 1".

It was a good day. The sun was shining, birds were singing, and kids were playing in the park. At the Angel Grove Police Patrol Department, various cadets were running across the campus. Most of the cadets were doing really well. However, two were towards the end of the line as one was slightly ahead of them.

"I don't know, Skull. Maybe this wasn't such a good idea. I'm not exactly in the best physical shape here," Bulk huffed. Hearing this, Jason turned back.

"Come on, Bulk. Don't give up. You're doing really well," Jason encouraged. Bulk shot him a grateful smile. "Now, come on, you guys! You can do this!" With that, Bulk and Skull increased their speed, matching Jason's strides. What they didn't know was that the exchange had been heard by the man in charge of the program, Lt. Jerome Stone. Good motivator, very encouraging. Really cares about others, he thought to himself. He watched as they went through different obstacle courses as well as various physical activity, running through tires, jumping over walls, doing jumping jacks, pushups, sit ups, and chin ups. Presently, they were back at the laps again.

"I can't do it anymore. Too tired," Skull panted, slowing down. Bulk huffed and nodded in agreement as he did the same.

"Come on, guys. I'm a little winded too, but we can do this," Jason encouraged, keeping pace with them.

"Jase, you're in better shape than we are," Bulk reminded.

"Come on, Bulk. You've lost a few pounds since you've started training. You're doing really well. They'll see that," Jason told them.

"It's no use. We can't make it," Bulk insisted.

"Yeah, who were we kidding? There's no way we'd be any good at this," Skull added.

"Just pretend it's baby Jacob at the end of that track," Jason told them. Lt. Stone watched as the two straightened their shoulders in determination and then quickened their pace, Jason right beside them. He nodded in approval. I think those three will work out rather nicely, he thought to himself. While this was going on, the other Rangers and their friends were in the middle of a volleyball game against Stone Canyon.

"We will now begin the final game for the championship," the referee announced.

"And the winners get a new lunch at my new outdoor café!" Ernie interjected. Everyone cheered.

"Good luck, you guys!" Shawna called.

"Thanks, Shawna! You too!" Kimberly responded.

"All right, guys. We came this far," Tommy reminded them.

"You said it," Zack agreed.

"Now it's time to go for the gold," Rocky chimed in. Tommy leaped into the air and spiked the ball. On the moon, Zedd was leading a blindfolded Rita to the balcony of the main entrance to their Lunar Palace.

"I can't see! What kind of game is this?" she demanded.

"It is no game, my Putrid Peanut," he answered taking off the blindfold. "Just a small gift I have selected especially for you," he continued, unveiling a remodeled version of her Repulsa-scope.

"Zeddy! Awww!" she hugged him. It's a nice gift, but I'm still going to destroy him, she thought to herself. But in the meantime, why not take all that she could get?

"So glad you like it," he said and he gave her a kiss. "I got it to commemorate our anniversary!" Rita waited until his back was turned and made a face. Then, she looked through the telescope and-Zedd's face loomed in front of her.

"Would you mind moving back a few hundred miles?"

"Yes, Honey Bunch." Zedd stood beside Rita as she gazed through the telescope. She cackled in delight as she looked down at the Earth. This was so much better than before. She no longer had to look out at the planets by sections, but could go straight to Earth.

"Yes! What great modifications! Now I can watch all the action!" Zedd grinned, though one wouldn't be able to tell from all of the chrome. Just then, there was a whistling sound.

"What is that sound?" A ball of fire approached the moon at an incredible speed. When it landed, there was a great shaking and everyone fell to the ground. Scorpina, Squatt, Finster, Baboo, and Goldar scrambled to their feet and Scorpina and Goldar helped Rita up.

"Are you all right, Empress?" Scorpina asked.

"Yes, I'm all right," Rita answered and then with a huff helped Zedd up. Back on Earth, there was a rumble and everyone gasped.

"What was that?" Trini queried.

"Oh, man. Don't tell me they're at it again," Kimberly mumbled to herself.

"Hey, are we gonna play or what?" a member of the Stone Canyon team demanded.

"Yes, we're going to play," Hilary answered, as she was thrown the ball and the game continued, though the Rangers were now paying closer attention to their communicators. Back at the police academy, Jason, Bulk, Skull, and the others had also heard the rumble.

"Uh…should we be worried?" Bulk queried.

"Let's continue, but we should definitely keep an eye on our communicators," Jason responded in a worried tone. On the moon, the object that had landed came into view. Well, some of it. Two boney arms grabbed at the moon's surface.
