THE POTION NOTION
DISCLAIMER
Hey, I just finished PRJF while catching the first ep of PRS. Both are pretty good. Power Rangers belongs to Haim Saban and Nickelodeon. I only own the subplots and characters you don't recognize.
It was late afternoon in Angel Grove and the halls of Angel Grove High were unusually full due to the fact that tickets to the up-coming Policeman's Ball were being sold. Kimberly and Tommy walked hand-in-hand.
"You know, I'm getting really sick of bug monsters," Kimberly said.
"Yeah, I know what you mean. That thing was gross," Tommy agreed. "I'm just glad it didn't get a chance to do any real damage," he continued.
"Boy, I'll say," Kimberly agreed as they walked up to Bulk, Skull, Jason, and Tyler who were busy selling tickets.
"Hey Bro, do you have your tickets yet?" Jason asked.
"Uh…" Jason laughed at Tommy's panicked look.
"You totally forgot that the dance was tonight," he realized.
"Guilty," he admitted.
"The T.O.M. strikes again," Kimberly laughed as Tommy handed over some money and collected two tickets as Zack, Billy, Trini, Rocky, Adam, Aisha, Katherine, Richie, Angela, Curtis, Justin, Hilary, Zane, Tina, and Chris walked up.
"Hey, is this where we get the tickets?" Justin asked. Bulk nodded and then the four sold tickets to the group. Trini blushed as Richie bought her a ticket and Angela linked her arm with Zack's as he paid for their tickets.
"Don't worry, Aisha. I have ours tucked away," Bulk said. Then, "That is-"
"Of course I'd love to go with you," Aisha interrupted. Bulk grinned.
"That's great. I can't wait," he said.
"I also am in need of two admissions to the festivities at the end of the week," Billy said.
"Taking Marge?" Skull asked, as he handed Billy a ticket.
"Affirmative," Billy confirmed, handing the boy some money.
"You know, Kat, I could save you a ticket," Tyler stated, pulling her close. Katherine gave him a polite smile and then twisted her wrist in a way that forced him to release his hold on her.
"Sorry. I'm going with someone else," she answered.
"Who?" he asked.
"Me," Jason responded.
"You?" Tyler questioned in surprise. "What does he have that I don't?" he demanded, turning to Katherine.
"Enough sense to take a hint," Katherine replied. Rocky laughed, but quickly covered it with a cough when Tyler turned to glare at him. Then, they everyone except for Bulk, Skull, Tommy, Kimberly, Jason, and Katherine headed for different classes, each of them unaware that Rita and Zedd had witnessed everything.
"Ohhhh. So once again, that sickening human emotion called love is in the air," Zedd growled. Rita cackled.
"This couldn't have worked out more perfectly if I had planned it," she declared.
"What are you talking about?" Zedd wondered.
"Finster's new monster, Lovinatrix, can cause anyone to fall deeply in love with the first person they see just by hitting them with one of her arrows," Rita answered.
"So? What good does that do?" Zedd asked.
"Don't you see? While the Rangers are all running around infatuated with one another, Goldar, Scorpina, and Rito can destroy Angel Grove and we can take over the world!" Rita told him.
"Excellent, My Queen," Goldar approved.
"The Rangers won't know what hit them," Scorpina declared. She let out a small laugh and cozied up to Goldar as wicked thoughts of Earth's destruction entered her mind.
