I'd like to go off the record and say, I do not own any rights to Power Rangers. I only own some of the characters and the story itself. I would like to thank decode9, Charlotte 'Charlie' Hartley, LovingGinger30, and all the other author's who have been so supportive throughout the years to make me a better writer and even push myself.

EPISODE TWO - Next Generation Part 2

Brooke Scott-Ellis walked into her classroom after her lunch to find a box sitting on her desk. The English teacher walked over to the box with confusion. She took a sip of her coffee, then placed the cup on her desk. She saw her name on the box followed by no return address.

Brooke opened the box revealing seven morphers. They ranged from red, blue, yellow, green, pink, white, and black. These morphers looked very different than the ones she remembered back in the day. The morphers looked like watches. They were slim watches that had a few buttons on the side of the screen.

Brooke also looked through the box and found a letter.

"Brooke,
As you know the Jurassic Squad has broken up since the defeat of Ripto. However, that hasn't stopped enemies from reappearing. Whether they are future enemies or enemies from another dimension, our world will always need Power Rangers to look after us. You know fully well that Jenny has taken my old dojo building and the batcave remains, I have told her to keep it in case, and now I think its time to get some use out of it. That's where these morphers come in.

Tonya and I found these gems in Angel Grove about a year or two ago, they were not active there but when we returned here to Clover Hills to sell the old dojo, they became active. So with the help of Alpha 5, we built new morphers for the next generation of rangers. Not only that, but upgraded the batcave.

I want you and Jenny to look after the new legacy of Power Rangers. I believe you two are the perfect fit. If you need anything, call myself or the others. Remember we're just a phone call away.
-Adam"

Brooke looked at the letter in utter shock. She sat down in her seat and then put the letter down as she turned to the photos on her desk, the photos on her desk ranged from a family photo of her with her husband and daughter. Then some family photos of the entire Scott family and then her graduation from college with the original group of Jurassic Squad rangers.

"I'm going to mentor the next generation?" Brooke muttered to herself.

-JURASSICSURGE-

While at lunch, the students all were sitting at their tables with their cliques. As Jack got her lunch trey a sudden nerves kicked in that she didn't think she knew anyone, that was until behind her was Melody.

"Hey, come sit with me and my friends." Melody smiled.

Jack smiles, "Thanks." Jack said.

The two walk over to their table, which had Jasmine and Barry over there. Jack sits down and is quickly welcomed in by the two others. Across from the court yard, RJ was looking over at the table. Jamie and Brad glanced at each other and then shook their heads.

"Dude, you should give up." Brad said, "It's obvious she doesn't like you."

Jamie shakes his head, "No she did like him, just not anymore."

RJ shot them a look, "Guys, not helping."

Brad looks up from his lunch, "Not to sound harsh man, but why are you so interested in Jasmine?"

RJ didn't say anything as he just stared over at their table. Jasmine was so happy, she smiled and laughed at whatever the three girls and one guy were talking about. RJ just had a frown on his face. Jamie looks over at RJ and frowns as well.

"Look, you made a mistake," Jamie said, "And now you got to show her you're not going to sit there quietly."

RJ looks at Jamie, "Yeah."

RJ went to get up to go talk to Jasmine when there was a weird earthquake, which sent some students including RJ to the ground hard. RJ groans and was helped up by Jamie and Brad. The three guys look to see nothing. RJ looks at his friends in utter confusion.

"What the hell?" RJ spoke.

Then another earthquake, but this time following the earthquake there was a monster standing there. This monster was a dinosaur. This dinosaur was a raptor. The students began to run in panic. RJ glanced over to where the raptor was close to, it was close to Jasmine and her friend.

As RJ went to run to help, another raptor jumped down in front of him and his friends. The fangs of the raptors were intimidating. RJ looked at the dinosaur in the eyes and saw that they weren't here to harm. Instead they both ran over to Jasmine, who seemed a bit shocked by that.

Then appearing now was a hybrid human mix dinosaur. This being was armed with a sword and pointed it at the raptors and the teens standing there. The raptors growled at this mysterious hybrid human dino mix.

The raptors charged at the hybrid, only to be destroyed by said human dino mix. The mysterious person looked now at the teens who were just frozen in fear.

"Who are you!" Jack yelled.

The hybrid looked at them, "Who am I? Who am I? My name is Prince Tidus, and I am here to take over the world but first I must destroy you."

Barry looked a bit frightened, "Wh- Why us?"

Prince Tidus chuckled, "Because you're the only thing in my way from total chaos!"

Jasmie, Melody, Barry, and Jack being the closest to Prince Tidus looked at each other, and the three guys a bit further back glanced at each other and then back to what was happening in front of them.

"Once you're dead I can rule this world!" Prince Tidus shouted.

Then Prince Tidus charged over, Jasmine thought quickly by tackling Barry down as Melody grabbed Jack down. Melody quickly rose up, as Prince Tidus ran to charge at the three guys. Melody began to run over, she grabbed a lunch trey and jumped in the air, then flipped over to land in front of the guys. She slapped the lunch trey across the face of the hybrid.

Prince Tidus looks at Melody, "My are you a fighter,"

Then he grabbed Melody and threw her, she landed on the ground and rolled slightly. She groaned in pain as she stumbled to try to stand.

Prince Tidus turned back to the guys, but this time the three athletic guys tried to over power the hybrid. Jamie was knocked down by the prince, he was kicked by Prince Tidus. RJ and Brad struggled to gain control of the situation.

Just then, Barry came over from behind with another trey, he hit it over the head of Prince Tidus. Jack and Jasmine ran over, Jack checked on Jamie, who was now getting up. Prince Tidus noticed all seven of them were close by, so he pushed RJ and Brad back and slashed his sword causing a small explosive attack, which sent the teens to the ground hard.

They all were groaning in pain and looked up to notice Prince Tidus there.

"So long, Power Rangers." Prince Tidus said.

RJ seemed confused, 'Power Ranger?' He thought.

Just then as Prince Tidus went to destroy the teens, a blast hit the prince on the side. Followed by another blast. Jumping in front of the teens was a yellow suited woman. She held a blaster in her hands. As the teens were getting up, they noticed her suit looked very much like themed with dinosaurs.

"So you're the cause everything," The Yellow Ranger spoke.

Prince Tidus, "And who are you?"

The women in yellow fired her blaster again, "Jurassic Squad Yellow Ranger!"

Prince Tidus was about to attack again, but stopping him was a man in a green suit. His suit looked very much like the one in yellow. He stopped Prince Tidus' attack with two daggers in his hands. The prince stepped back a few steps.

"So," Prince Tidus started, "Jurassic Squad. Huh, more like old news. A bunch of old people. Washed up news."

The one in green turned to the prince, "Wanna say that again? Because I swear I will end you."

Prince Tidus saw the green man try to attack him, which led to Prince Tidus from dodging it and then vanishing. This left the teens who were slightly wounded from all of this to stand up now and look at the two in the colored suits now.

"What just- happened?" RJ asks.

The one in yellow spoke, "We'll explain later."

"Now explain now," Brad spoke.

The one in green noticed teachers coming, "You have company, besides we will see you again."

The one in yellow nods, "Come to the Youth Center after school."

With that the two people just vanished as they jumped off. The next few moments went slowly, the teachers came running over checking on them. Asking them what happened and then noticed the injuries. RJ could hear that one teacher said that their parents were coming to get them, but he toned it out. He was more curious about Prince Tidus, those two mystery heroes, and why Prince Tidus called them Power Rangers.

-JURASSICSURGE-

School was ended early because of that. Parents were racing to the school to pick up their children. RJ sat in a chair near the principal's office waiting for his parents, he noticed Jamie's parents and Brad's parents came to get them. He saw Jasmine take a seat near him. RJ noticed Jack was leaving with her dad and Melody was picked up her mom and Barry was leaving with his dad. It just a few other students, including him and Jasmine. Jasmine glanced over at RJ.

"You hurt?" She spoke first.

RJ shakes his head, "A few scratches, nothing too serious."

There was a moment of silent.

"How are you?" RJ asks.

Jasmine finally makes eye contact, "Fine."

RJ nods, "Jamie and Brad said they're heading to the Youth Center at four. I think they mentioned it to your friends. Including the new girl." RJ said.

Jasmine looks at him, "Why are you telling me this?" She asks.

RJ looks at her, "Because don't you want to know what happened today?"

Jasmine frowns, "Actually no. I just want to go home and pretend this didn't happen."

RJ frowns at her, "Jasmine," He started, "Whatever happened is serious. Hell, that guy- Prince Tidus, he called us Power Rangers."

Jasmine glanced back at RJ, "I doubt it," Jasmine said, "We're misfits if we are put together."

RJ looks at the floor, "So you're not coming? Please don't make it beause of me."

Jasmine looked at the sadden guy, "I'll try. My parents might be a bit protective after today." Jasmine said.

Then in like it was on cue, came in Jasmine's parents. They looked basically like her. Her mother was dressed very conservative and wearing a hijab covering her hair. Her father looked like he was dressed for business and wore a a nice suit.

"Jasmine!" Her father saw her and quickly came over.

Jasmine stood up and was embraced by her father, "Papa, I'm okay." She spoke softly.

Her mother stood off to the side and smile softly at her daughter being safe. Her father was very protective of Jasmine, he was checking over her to see if she was harmed in any way. When he deemed she was fine, he let go of her so her mother could hug her.

"We are going home," Her mother said.

Jasmine glanced over at RJ, "Can you drive me and my classmate to the Youth Center? We both have an essay to work on."

Her father's eyes were like daggers at RJ, "A boy?" His voice may have been low but loud enough for RJ to hear.

Jasmine looks at her father, RJ could hear her speak another language. He wasn't familiar with it, but as he heard her speak it directly at her father, soon he loosen up and calmed down a bit. RJ noticed that her father turned to look at him.

"You have a girlfriend?" Her father asks.

RJ glanced at Jasmine who nodded, "Yes sir,"

"Not my daughter?" Her father asks.

"No sir," RJ said.

"Very well," Her father spoke, "Since other people will be there and you will not be touching my daughter."

RJ watched Jasmine's parents walk on, leaving the teens to gather their things. Jasmine glanced over at RJ as he caught up to her.

"Thanks," RJ said, "My parents were too busy to come."

Jasmine looks at him, "I only did that so we both get some answers." She said.

RJ nods, "What were you speaking anyways?"

Jasmine looked forward, "Hindu."

RJ nods, "Cool."

And with that said the two piled into Jasmine's parents' car.

-JURASSICSURGE-

Jasmine and RJ arrived at the Youth Center and upon entering the Youth Center, they notice a lot of teenagers inside. There was also a small part where there seemed to be a small daycare. RJ noticed his friends and then nudged Jasmine to follow him, his friends were next to her friends. As the two came over, their friends greeted them.

It didn't take long for a gentlemen to walk over. A thirty-three year old man came over with short black hair, green eyes, very muscular, tan skin, standing at 6'4" tall, and quite lean. He was wearing a black and green flannel but with a green shirt with the words Youth Center employee on the right corner, blue jeans, and black sneakers.

"Hello there," He said, "Need any help?"

RJ took lead, "We were- um approached to come here after what happened at school today."

The man nods, "Okay, hold on a second." He turned over to find someone but clearly didn't find who he was looking for.

"Mabel!" He shouted.

A young twelve year old girl came over, she looked so much like this man here expect for her skin was fair and her hair was short brown. She was wearing a volunteer Youth Center Tutor shirt that was yellow, with blue shorts, and sandals. She was by two kids who were African American.

"Yes, dad?" Mabel asks.

"Can you go find your mother," He spoke, "I think these kids are here about jobs."

Mabel's eyes lit up, "Oh great!" She smiles, "I'll go find her!"

As Mabel trails off, the teens are left more confused.

"We aren't here for jobs," Barry spoke.

Brad agrees, "We're here because of something else."

The man nods, "Look I get it, but if you want to continue to come here without it looking weird you need to work here." He spoke.

"What do you mean?" Jack asks.

Now coming over seemed to be Mabel's mom and the man's wife. She had long brown hair in a ponytail, blue eyes, lightly tan skin, thin but slightly muscular, standing at 6'0" tall, and a bit flexible. She was wearing a yellow t-shirt with the words Youth Center employee on the right corner, blue jeans, and white tennis shoes.

"Oh," The wife spoke, "Your the seven I interviewed a couple of days ago." She played into the act.

Mabel smiled, "You're gonna hire them, mommy?"

The women turns to her daughter, "Why don't you go back to helping Mason and Greg with their homework while I talk business." She said.

The daughter walked off and the wife motioned for the teens to follow them to the employee's only room. Upon entering the room, the man locked the door.

"Now sorry about that," She spoke, "We can't talk shop in the open."

Just then the two showed off their morphers.

"Whoa!" Jasmine spoke.

"You're the rangers?" Jack spoke.

The man nods, "Hunter Jacobson, I was the former Green Jurassic Squad Ranger."

"I am Jenny Jacobson, I am the former Yellow Jurassic Squad Ranger."

Jenny pulled down a picture frame revealing a keypad, she typed in some numbers and then a secret door appeared. She began to walk down, allowing the others to follow. Hunter remain on top to keep guard. The teens were blown away by this hideout. It was underground and looked very much like a cave.

"Welcome to the batcave," Jenny said, "Well that's what we called it back in my time as a ranger."

The teens were so impressed.

"Why are we here?" Melody asks.

Jenny looks at them, "Today's attack was no random attack. You see every generation needs heroes to protect them, and it seems like that title has fallen upon to you seven. You'll stand where my team and I once stood. As proud rangers in a long line of legacy."

"How do you even know we're the Power Rangers?" Barry asks.

Jenny looks at Jasmine, "The raptors wanted to protect you, Jasmine. You hold the new title as the Blue Ranger, dinosaur powers of the Raptor." She spoke.

"Wha- What? You serious?" Jasmine said.

Jenny nods and hands her a blue watch, "This is your morpher, your life. Keep it with you 24/7."

Jasmine looks at it and then puts it on, "Okay."

Jenny turns to Jamie, "You are the new Yellow Ranger. And that's some shoes to fill in seeing as I was the previous Yellow Ranger." She hands Jamie his morpher.

Jamie starts to put it on, "Oh okay."

"Barry," Jenny starts, "You have some shoes to fill as well seeing as the former Green Ranger is upstairs."

Barry holds onto his morpher then puts it on, "Cool."

Jenny smiles at Melody, "I had a feeling you were going to be a ranger," She hands Melody a morpher, "I know your family. And I am sure they'll be proud to know that you are the Pink Ranger."

Melody smiles and begins to put it on, "Wow. Cool."

Jenny turns to Brad, "Now Brad, you will be the Black Ranger. I want you to wear it with pride." She said handing him a morpher.

Brad nods, "I will." As he puts it on.

Jenny hands Jack her morpher, "Jack you will be the White Ranger. I think it'll suit you seeing as our White Ranger was new to the area as well."

Jack begins to put it on, "Nice."

Lastly, Jenny faces RJ. She hands him a red watch.

"Now, RJ, there is a lot you're going to learn with this journey. Learn about your family and about yourself. This will help you grow as a better person. This is why, you are the Red Ranger. The leader these guys need. I don't want to find out this was a mistake. Beause we all believe in you." Jenny said.

RJ puts on the morpher.

Once he was wearing it. A sudden aura spills around the team. RJ had a T-Rex spirit fly around him, Jasmine had a raptor spirit fly around her, Jack had a Saber Tooth Tiger fly around her, Barry had a triceratops fly around him, Jamie had a parasaurolophus fly around him, Brad had a stegosaurus, and Melody had a pterodactyl fly around her.

"What just- happened?" Jamie spoke.

"What the?" Barry spoke.

Jenny smiles, "Those are your dinosaur spirits. Your power source. They will help you, guide you. And make you better people." Jenny said.

RJ looks at the screen of the watch morpher, he sees a red T-Rex on the screen. He looks up back at Jenny.

"You said I'd learn about my family and myself," RJ started, "What kind of crap do you know?"

Jenny looks at him, "I know we never really see each other but that is no way to speak to your second cousin."

Everyone looks at RJ in shock.

Then another voice spoke out, "I am shocked, nephew."

Coming over was Brooke Ellis, formerly Brooke Scott. RJ looks at his aunt in utter shock at he stares her down with confusion to why she is here.

"What the?" Jack spoke.

"Why are you here, Aunt Brooke?" RJ asks.

Brooke smiles, "Well Jen is here to train you," She started, "And I am here to mentor you."

Brad looks at them, "Train us for what? We already lost against Prince Tidus."

Brooke shakes her head, "That was one of many fights. You will grow stronger as will Prince Tidus. You need to answer now, do you want to be rangers and stop whatever evil is coming or give up?"

Each teen looks at each other. Before silently agreeing to stand.

"Alright," Jenny smiles, "Let's get to work."

(A/N: I wanted this chapter a lot longer than last time. Also a lot more action obvious. We are introduced to the new villain of the series, and also the past characters from Jurassic Squad. Hunter will be around but not play nearly as an important role as Jenny and Brooke.

Like Brooke said, Brooke will mentor and Jen will be training them. So that is why Jenny is hiring all seven of them to work at the Youth Center so they'll be able to enter the batcave without people questioning it.

So there will be scenes of the rangers putting in a few hours working. I thought adding that would change things up. Also I wanted to include meeting the former ranger's children, hence meeting Mabel even if it was brief. Throughout the series you'll see the former rangers and even their kids.

Next chapter will focus on teamwork and what not. Look forward to that. Until next time. -ICrzy)
