Standard disclaimer: I do not own power rangers. I only lay claim to Nathan and Charlotte.
A/N: Well here is the next chapter these were originally two separate chapters worked up to take the story in one of two ways. But I figured I needed the beginning before going into the second part. So I combined them in hopes of flowing better into the once a ranger thing. So as always read and review and thanks to those who reviewed the first chapter of the story.

A mysterious blond woman wearing only a green bikini stood atop a plateau staring off into the distant stars of the night sky.
"Oh I fear that it will be soon time to call upon the rangers once again." She said feeling the power of evil growing ever stronger. "If only I didn't have to call upon them again." She said as she watched over the lives of the earthly rangers whom had traveled their many years ago for the great power. And then there was the boy or more appropriately now man born of two of the rangers. "The older rangers are all highly rooted in there lives on earth. With children and lives that would be hard to leave." She said as she looked in on Adam and Tanya. They were sitting in a loft in New York excitedly talking about the arrival of Nathan and Kira in a few days.
She then looked in on Billy the holder of the wolf spirit. He was sitting with his wife Katherine holding hands. They were watching a movie together and each had a hand resting on the woman's belly. She was obviously pregnant leaving Billy out because she knew he would never leave her in that condition.
Then there was Rocky and Aisha. The two had just arrived at the Reefside Fitness center and were talking with Nathan, Kira, and the two gymnastics teachers Heather and Michelle. It has seemed that they were taking over for Kira and Nathan so the two could move to New York.
Then she looked in on Kimberly and Tommy who were lovingly sitting in the nursery of there few month old daughter watching her sleep. It seemed Kim was having a hard time with the idea of Nathan her first born moving to the other side of the country with his fiancée. While Tommy comforted her, not that he wasn't upset he knew that eventually it would happen. And he would miss Kira and Nathan both , they both agreed to visit as often as possible. Besides the couple were always only a phone call away. Those two as great as they were both were needed more where they are.
Her only choice left was Nathan the boy had a strong bond with the Ninjetti so he was an easy candidate. So that also let her gain Kira knowing the two were likely to not leave without the other. Then she would leave the choice for three to four other rangers to Nathan and Kira to finish out the team. But for now she would let them live on in peace and would call on them only when truly necessary.
--
It was now a the morning of Nathan and Kira's last day living in Reefside and the beginning of their life in New York. They had been staying at Tommy and Kim's house once Aisha and Rocky got to town leaving them and the two gymnastics couches to live in the loft. Kim came down stairs to find Nathan in the kitchen cooking breakfast as Kira sat at the table drinking a cup of coffee. She couldn't believe how much like a married couple the two look even though they wouldn't be for a few more years.
"Hey mom did you sleep well?" He asked since this would be the last night of him and Kira getting up to take care of Charlotte during the night.
"Yes very well." She said with a smile but she couldn't help the tear that rolled down her cheek.
"Awe mom stop." This actually came from Kira who had started already referring to Tommy and Kim as mom and dad. "You know we will be visiting as often as we can."
"I know I know it's just hard for a mom to see her little boy all grown up and leaving home. If it wasn't for Charlotte I would probably be going through some major empty nest syndrome." She said pouring herself some coffee and sitting down next to Kira.
Kira gave her soon to be mother in law a hug. "Well at least you aren't mad at me for being the one that is taking your boy away."
"That could never happen. I love you just as much as I do him and will miss you just as much." Kim said before taking a sip of her coffee.
That is when Tommy came into the room carrying almost 6 month old Charlotte. "Well no more restful night for your mother an I for a while." Tommy said with a smile on his face to the bundle in his arms. He couldn't help but be happy for the young couple getting out there on their own. He missed all these moments with Nathan so he wanted to be there for all of Charlotte's.
"Look at the proud papa." Kira said smiling to her future father in law and former teacher.
"Yeah but this proud papa knows that in a years he will probably be holding his grand child." He said with a what appeared to be a smile but on the inside he was rather sad at the idea.
"Well let me hold my baby sister for a while you all eat your breakfast. It's buffet style today." He said turning off the stove and walking over and taking Charlotte from his father. And walking out of the kitchen.
The three in the kitchen smiled at the site of Nathan taking care of Charlotte.
"He is going to be a great big brother to her when she gets older." Kira said after fixing herself a plate and taking a seat where she was before.
"Oh I know and he unlike other big brothers he will spoil her." Kim said dreading it a little.
"Yeah but I think he is doing it since she is going to miss out on having two great people there to fawn over her and spoil her." Tommy said and Kim knew who he was talking about and it brought a tears to her eyes.
"I know and it was rather hard on Nathan when they passed away. I am glad they got to meet at least one of their grand children. And it is a shame your parents couldn't of made it sooner to finally meet Nathan when they come and visit us to see Charlotte." Kim said sadly.
"Yeah but guys just cause he can't meet them this time doesn't mean he never will." Kira said.
Mean while in the living room Nathan was sitting on the couch holding his sister. "Hey there Charlie I am sorry that this is the last time I am going to get to hold you in a while. So I hope when I come back you have a big smile on your face to see your brother." He said as he held her out to look at her. "And as I said the very first time I held you. Remember that your big brother will always be here for you." He noticed her yawn so he stood up and rocked her gently back and forth in his arms. He began to him lightly before he started to sing a lullaby.
In
the house next door right next to mine He
loves his little teddy bear
a little boy lives there
at
Xmas time dear Santa Claus
brought him a teddy bear
he's with it all day long
and the
sweetest thing I've ever heard
is to hear him sing this song
Kim and Kira walked in at this part, both looking at Nathan singing his baby sister to sleep.
Me
and my teddy bear I love my teddy
bear Every night he's with me Oh, me and my teddy bear
have no worries, have no cares
me and my
teddy bear
just play and play all day
he has one eye and has no hair
but I love my teddy bear
we
play and play all day
when I climb
up the stairs
and by my bed he listens
until I say my
prayers
have no worries, have no
cares
me and my teddy bear
just play and play all day
Tommy walked up behind Kim at this point and wraps his arms around her. "He is going to be great father one day." Kim stayed quite listening to her son and daughter.
Every
night he's with me Oh, me and my teddy
bear
when I climb up the stairs
and by my bed he
listens
until I say my prayers
have no worries, have no cares
just play and play all day
just play and play
all day
When he finished the lullaby he turned to see the three people standing in the doorway to the kitchen.
"She's asleep now and most likely will remain that way for a few hours." He said walking over to the others and handed her to their mother. "Alright mom the cab will be here any minute to pick us up."
"I still don't see why you didn't let your father or I drive you?" Kim said.
"Easy mom we both know it wouldn't be fair to let one of you see us off while the other had to stay behind with Charlotte." Kira said hugging Kim and kissing her on the cheek and Charlotte on the forehead. "Bye little Charlotte I promise we will be back to see you again soon." Then Kira turned to Dr. O and hugged him. "Bye dad." She said she now had a few tears in her eyes.
Nathan hugged his mom and kissed her on the cheek before kissing his little sister on the forehead. "Mom stop getting all teary eyed. Your making Kira cry too. This isn't good bye forever just for a little while." He said and turned to his Dad. "Well pop you better take care of yourself so I know there is someone here to protect them." Nathan said as Tommy just shook his head.
"You two take care of yourselves as well. And I look forward to hearing your songs on the radio. So don't be strangers you two." Tommy said putting his arm around his wife.
"Call us as soon as you land so we know you got there safe." Kim said as tears streamed down her face after the door shut behind the young couple.

November about 2 years and 5 months from when Nathan and Kira arrived in New York. The Sentinel Knight was out to recruit five rangers to aid in the defense of the crown now that the Overdrive rangers no longer have their powers.
Xander was walking through the Mystic woods on his way home after visiting Claire and Udonna since the other rangers were all off on vacations.
"Xander Bly do not be alarmed but the world once again needs to call on you for help." Sentinel Knight says as he appears in front of Xander.
"Well good day. But there is another team to deal with this threat. Not to mention I don't have my powers anymore." Xander said looking at the Sentinel Knight and shook his head.
Then the Sentinel Knight explained the situation about Thrax and what happened to the new team to Xander.
"Well it sounds like quite the mess over there. Well then what are you waiting for reconnect my powers so we can get on with this." Xander said excited about getting one more chance to do battle with the forces of evil.
"Very well Xander your courage and dedication to the cause is admirable." Sentinel Knight says as a cell phone morpher appears in Xander's hand. "Now we must go." He said as the two disappeared.
--
The next one the Sentinel Knight approached was Bridge Carson. Bridge was in his room standing on his head against the wall. He had been having a hard time gathering his thoughts about an earlier battle he had that day. When the Sentinel Knight appeared Bridge fell over on to his side.
"Wait I remember reading about you during out lessons in Ranger History." Bridge says but for some reason he just couldn't think of his name.
"Bridge I am the Sentinel Knight." He said and Bridge snapped his fingers and pointed at him nodding his head, to say he remembers now. "Your assistance is needed in the past." He said just before explaining the situation to him.
"Well I am in but I need to go tell the commander that I am leaving." Bridge says as he starts to leave the room.
"No need Bridge you will be returned here only a few moments after we left." He said and the two disappeared.
--
Kira was sitting in her loft in New York playing a song on her guitar and writing notes on some paper in front of her.
"Kira Ford the world is in grave need of your help once more." The Sentinel Knight says to her.
Kira falls backward out of the chair she was in caught of guard by the sudden presence. And quickly got to her feet ready to fight.
"No need to call on him. I came here as a friend to get you not him." The Sentinel Knight told her as he could tell she was about to contact her fiancée.
"How did you know I could contact Nathan like that?" She asked confused but still hadn't given up her defensive stance.
He then explains the situation to her and why her she is needed to help.
"Alright lets go." She said as her bracelet changed into her morpher.
'Odd it took so much more power then the others to re energize her powers..' The Sentinel Knight thought as the two disappeared.
--
Tori Hanson is walking along the secret beach she and her friends use when a Mysterious golden figure appeared before her. She dropped her surf board and got back into a fighting stance.
"Tori Hanson do not fret. I am the Sentinel Knight and the world is in need of your services as a ranger once more." He said just before explaining the situation to her about the new team and the threat that removed there powers.
"I'm in no way am I going to back down when the world needs my help." She said as her morpher appeared on her arm. She looked at it confused she didn't have it before.
"Your powers have been restored and now we must go." He said and the two disappeared much like he did with Adam earlier.
--
Adam is approached by the Sentinel Knight one day when he was alone in his dojo back in Angel Grove. He had and Tanya were there for two weeks to take care of things while his employees took a much needed vacation.
"Adam Park I am afraid the world needs your help once again." The mysterious gold figure says to Adam. Lucky for the knight he was incorporial as Adam's foot went through his head. "No need to fight me for I will take you to the battle."
"Well I thought there was that new team to take care of things?" Adam asked confused he remembered seeing reports on the news about them. He still couldn't believe there identities were public.
The Sentinel Knight tells Adam who he is and what happened to the Overdrive rangers.
"So which costume do you want me to come back as?" He asked but seeing as the enemy he was to face it brought a smile to his face. "Let me guess I get to use the Black Mighty Morphin powers again."
The Sentinel Knight nods and places a spectral hand on Adam's shoulder and uses his energy to reconnect him to the morphing grid. "There Adam you are re-powered and here is your knew morpher since that last one was so heavily damaged."
Adam looks at the morpher and couldn't help but feel nostalgic as he looks at it. "Man the guys are gonna flip when they hear about this."
"I will now send you to where you need to be." And with that the two of them disappeared.
--
The overdrive rangers are in the underground base beneath the Hartford mansion.
"Any luck yet dad?" Mack operation overdrive red ranger.
Mr. Hartford let out a sigh. "No somehow Thrax has torn the morphing grid which has blocked all access to your powers." He said placing the damage overdrive morpher on the table.
"Sure the morphers themselves can be fixed. But even the most sophisticated repair program can't fix the grid." Rose said shaking her head.
"Then that's it. It's over we are no longer power rangers." Dax said sadly.
"Guys the evil alliance is wasting no time in searching for the jewels. Reports are coming in from all over the world." Spencer said as he walked into the room.
"Well then not much longer and they will come here for the two we have." Will said as he was examining his damaged morpher.
"We can't let that happen! We need to take the fight to them." Mr. Hartford said looking at the rangers.
"But without our ranger powers?" Ronny said not convinced.
"You still have your genetically enhanced skills." He said trying to help them understand they aren't helpless.
"Dad's right we have to try." Mack said getting up to go choose a location. The other rangers nod feeling the encouragement from the confidence of their leader.
"I believe you should head to Stone Henge to take on Kamdor and Mig." Spencer said as he was scanning locations.
"Right." All the rangers say running out to their transport.
"Sir I believe you should have a look at this." Spencer says calling over Mr. Hartford.
"What is it Spence?" Mr. Hartford asked as walked over. Spencer just indicated the screen and enlarged a video feed of what appears to be a guy taking on Flurious in New York city.
"Is he crazy taking on Flurious like that?" Mr. Hartford asked as he looked at the screen.
The man was holding his own fairly well against Flurious. He was using Flurious' own chillers as shields to block the blasts. And this was only infuriating Flurious. How dare a mere human defy him in such a way.
--
At Stone Henge the Overdrive Rangers were struggling to get back to there feet to continue the fight. As Kamdor and Mig are about to strike Kamdor quickly jumps out of the way as vines trap Mig.
"What the?" Kamdor said as he looks at the trapped Mig. "Huh who are you?" Kamdor demanded as he looked at what appeared to be a green power ranger.
"Surprise." Xander said as he spun his magi staff in his hand.
Just as Kamdor is about to rush the new ranger arrival he is blasted off his feet.
The one who blasted Kamdor laughs a bit as he walked out of the smoke. "Hello" Bridge said as he stood holding his blasters morphed as the red SPD ranger.
Mig finally breaks out of the make shift vine cage. He roars as pieces of it are sent in all directions. His mocking laughter was cut short as a blade was brought across his mid section by the dino thunder yellow ranger. The yellow ranger lands on top of one of the stones. "It's great to be back." Kira said as she looked at the two enemies.
Kamdor roared in frustration as he got back to his feet. His attention was pulled away as someone new yelled.
"Hey! Watch out." A female voice called. Just before a blue streak appeared and struck Kamdor multiple times knocking him back over to Mig. "Let the games begin." Said Tori the blue ninja storm ranger as she faced her opponents who know stood back to back.
The two villains look over just as a crack in the ground was racing toward them. The two villains screamed as an explosion sent them flying through the air.
Mack couldn't believe his eyes it was the black mighty morphin power ranger wielding his power axe. As well as four other rangers from various teams.
"Looks like you guys could use a little help." Adam said as the other four suited up rangers stood next to him.
The overdrive rangers all had looks of astonishment on their faces. And when they got to their feet the other rangers had moved to intercept Mig and Kamdor.
"Who are they?" Ronny asked not sure exactly what she was looking at.
"I don't know but I like the suits!" Dax said excited.
Rose's eyes grew wide and a smile appeared on her face. "They're power rangers!"
Mig and Kamdor were upset to see more rangers since they were supposed to of gotten rid of them.
"Thrax did tell us there would be more rangers." Kamdor said clearly upset.
"Maybe he's not such a great leader after all." Mig said as he and Kamdor left the battle field to go talk to Thrax about this.
"Power Down." The five rangers said in unison once Mig and Kamdor left.
"Thanks! Whoever you are?" Mack said as he and the other overdrive rangers approached the others.
"We're glad to help." Adam said as he Tori, Xander, Bridge, and Kira walked over to them.
"Is anyone else confused here?" Dax said looking at the other team of rangers.
"I will answer all of your questions." The Sentinel Knight said as he appeared between the two teams.
"But maybe this isn't the best place." Tori said looking around.
"Well lets head back to our base and we can talk there." Rose said as she and her team turned to head back to their transport and followed by the five assorted rangers.
"Man this is way better then a hallow tree." Xander said as they followed the overdrive rangers into the base under the Hartford Mansion. "Yep this'll do." He said looking at the base.
The two teams lined up across from each other. "So you all have been rangers before." Will said with a smirk on his face.
Four of them nodded and Bridge raised his hand. "Yeah well except for me I am not a ranger yet. Well I will be." Bridge said gaining confused looks from the others as he explains his story. "Or rather will be." He said scratching his own head.
"Makes sense to me!" Dax said with a smile. Which was responded to with a smile and a nod from Bridge.
"Well in any case welcome. We're so glad to have you here." Mr. Hartford said truthfully to the other rangers.
"I asked these former rangers to help in this time of crisis. I was able to channel some of my remaining energy to restore their powers." Said the Sentinel Knight after he appeared between the teams again.
"Hey we're happy to help. Once a Ranger.." Adam began. "Always a Ranger." The other four finished with smiles on their faces.
"As guardian of the jewels it is my job to make sure they are safe. That is why I have asked Adam, Bridge, Xander, Tori, and Kira to replace you as the new team of power rangers." Sentinel Knight said seriously before disappearing to rest.
The alarm sounded and suddenly stopped three times in the last thirty minutes leaving all of them confused.
"What is going on?" Mack asked he was tired of hearing the noise and it being a false alarm.
"I don't know it's just one of the alliance of evil shows up somewhere in the world and vanishes almost as quickly." Mr. Hartford said as he began to try and view the footage from the battles. Then the alarm went off again this time it wasn't just a false alarm.
"Okay Rangers this one is real. Kamdor, Mig, and Miratrix have just showed up again at Stone Henge." Mr. Hartford said.
"Right lets go rangers." Adam said and the other four followed him out.
"Man it sucks just sitting around here." Mack said as the others went upstairs to find something to do.
"It will be okay Mack. I am not giving up on getting your guys powers back." Mr. Hartford said to his son.
They sat and watched the battle with the other rangers. It was going just fine for them till Moltor showed up. And they looked on in horror as it appeared that Kira was about to fall to Moltor. But before the villain could strike the final blow he went flying in the other direction. Only there was nothing there to of done it.
"Dad what was that?" Mack asked looking at the screen closer. "How did she do that I didn't even see her move?"
"I don't know Mack I just don't know." Mr. Hartford said he was a confused as his son.
Adam and the other three rangers regrouped around Kira. "Kira glad to see your okay." Adam said as Tori helped her up. As their enemies all fled in the confusion of what happened. The rangers went back to the jet they used to get there.
Kira kept staring out the window as the clouds moved along behind them.
"Hey are you okay?" Tori said moving up and sitting next to the yellow ranger.
Kira smiled at the ninja next to her. "Yeah I am. I truly am."
Tori smiled at her fellow female ranger. "I am glad you gave us a scare out there when that Moltor guy showed up. So how did you pull off that scream of yours when I didn't even hear it?" Tori asked knowing that was the only power she had that could of sent Moltor flying like that. At least it was when she fought against and with her when Mesogog and Lothor teamed up.
It didn't take long for them to get back to the mansion. And when they entered the rec room where the overdrive rangers were they heard music and all of the rangers were dancing.
Xander smiled and joined in the fun. "Yeah know that is much better then those mopey faces I saw earlier." He said.
Tori dragged Bridge over and they started to dance as well.
Adam and Kira went over to a corner of the room to talk. "Kira am I mistaken or were you saved out there by someone?" Adam asked he had tried to get to Kira but Kamdor prevented him.
She was about to say something when the song changed.
"Oh I love this song!" Ronny said as she ran over and turned the music up. And when the song started. Adam and Kira both looked at each other and smiled.
Ronny ran over and grabbed Kira's hand dragging her off to dance.
This
ain't a song for the broken-hearted
No silent prayer for the
faith-departed
I ain't gonna be just a face in the crowd
You're
gonna hear my voice
When I shout it out loud
It's my
life
It's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I
just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is
like an open highway
Like Trini said
I did it my way
I
just wanna live while I'm alive
It's my life
This is for
the ones who stood their ground
For Kira and Kendrix who never
backed down
Tomorrow's getting harder make no mistake
Luck
ain't even lucky
Got to make your own breaks
It's my life
And it's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just
want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like
an open highway
Like Trini said
I did it my way
I just
want to live while I'm alive
'Cause it's my life
Better
stand tall when they're calling you out
Don't bend, don't break,
baby, don't back down
It's my life
And it's now or never
'Cause I ain't gonna live forever
I
just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is
like an open highway
Like Trini said
I did it my way
I
just want to live while I'm alive
It's my life
And
it's now or never
'Cause
I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like
Trini said
I did it my way
I just want to live while I'm
alive
'Cause it's my life!
They all relaxed after the song ended.
"Man I wish I knew who the one who sings that song is." Rose said she hadn't heard it before. But she had to admit it was really good.
"Yeah it just started on the radio a few days ago. I have scene pictures of him he is totally hot. I hope he is single because I totally want to get with him." Ronny said and frowned when everyone but Kira laughed at her.
Tori and Adam shared a knowing look. "Ronny I think Kira might have something to say about that." Adam said still laughing a bit. And Kira blushed and looked at the floor.
"What Kira you want to date him too?" Ronny asked confused.
That last comment made Tori laugh even harder. "You might say that." She said grabbing Kira's hand and showing the others the ring.
The guys on the overdrive team looked at it and Will frowned he thought Kira was cute and had thought about asking her out.
"Wait no your not! That isn't what kind of ring I think it is." Rose asked moving to look at it closer.
"So are you and he?" She said working the idea in her head but Kira answered her before she could say it.
"Yes Nathan Mitchel the one who sings that song is my fiancée. We are actually getting married in about a year and 3 month's." She said.
"Man and just when I found a celebrity crush my new friend has to go and ruin it by being engaged to him. Awe who am I kidding. I am totally happy for you as long as I can come to the wedding." Ronny said happily.
"Oh course I would love it if all of you attended it. You guys would also get to meet a lot of the other past rangers." She said with a smile.
Rose had listened to the two talk and as her mind raced to remember that name she just heard Kira mention. "What is this the same Nathan Mitchel that graduated college by the time he was 17. Oh man what a small world I haven't him in ages." Rose said with smile on her face when Kira nodded her head yes.
"Wait you know Nathan? How?" Ronny asked wondering how her friend could hide the fact that she knew someone so famous.
"Guys I'm going to go see if Andrew needs any help." Adam said leaving to let the younger rangers talk. He may not be as smart as Billy, Trini, Nathan, or Hayley but he still knew a thing or two. So he made his way down into the underground base.
"Well you see like him I have dealt with being a child prodigy. He really helped my out during my first few years in college. It was really hard being so much younger then the others. Most students treat you like a kid while some professors are just upset so see someone so young and yet so smart. Nathan had been dealing with that problem for two years prior to my getting to the school." She said remembering with mixed emotions one it was sad because of how she hated it at first and happy once she met her good friend. "You see I had retreated into my room and rarely left except for like class. I couldn't handle dealing with the other students. And about two months into the year I was just about to quit school. Then one day when I was going to go get some lunch I met a boy who was only about a year or so older then I was. I saw him sitting under a tree eating a sandwich. At first I thought he may of just been someone's kid brother who tagged along to school that day or a professors kid. But as I walked over I saw the books he had were way to advanced."
Everyone was listening to the story intently. "Come on so did you approach him then?" Tori asked she never got to hear about Nathan's school life.
Rose sighed and looked at the floor. "Actually I was to chicken to go talk to him. So I turned to go back to my dorm. But as I turned I walked right into two older male students who got upset that I made them drop their lunch. I apologized and offered to pay for it but he said that wasn't good enough. One of them said I would have to start doing his work for him because he knew I was a child genius. When I tried to run one of them grabbed my arm and pulled me back." A tear rolled down her cheek. She could still remember how scared she was at that moment.
"Wow Rose from they way you seem now I never would of guessed you had it so bad." Mack said moving up to sit next to her and put and arm around her.
"Yeah well you can blame Nathan for that." She said smiling at Mack. "You see when I was about to start to scream for help the boy actually stepped in. He was so brave these guys were easily twice his size. He came up and said that they needed to learn how to treat a lady. The older boy threw me to the side and I hit the ground pretty hard. They both stepped up to the boy and got in his face. There were some words thrown back and forth but I couldn't hear I was to freaked out to think straight. Then one of them threw a punch at him which to my surprise never found its mark. The boy moved to the side and as the guys friend started in as well it was the wildest thing I had ever seen. No matter how hard they tried they could not hit him. It was as if he really wasn't there. But I knew differently once they got him cornered with his back to a wall. I was so afraid the boy was going to get hurt at that point. Only he did something I didn't see coming he went on the offensive and easily took down the bigger guys. They ran off quick hoping no one saw them lose to the little punk kid." Rose said with a smile on her face.
"So what happened next. Him defending you sounds like Nathan. But knowing him he approached you after that acting all like Mr. Cool." Kira said rolling her eyes. She loved Nathan to death but that guy would always defend someone in trouble no matter what.
"Yeah actually he walked over and helped me up. He apologized for them and introduced himself. And we spent the rest of the day talking. I found out he was just like me another young genius having to deal with others prejudices over our ages. We had quickly become friends at that point. And if it wasn't for him encouraging me to start talking to the older students saying they weren't all bad. I would still be the incredibly shy genius girl." Rose said looking at the others.
"So what happened how come you haven't seen him in a long time?" Ronny asked curious.
"Well actually I saw him at the lecture I was giving before coming to operation overdrive. But there was an emergency in the science lab where one of the professors was messing with one of my inventions and it went haywire. So I didn't get to talk to him then. The last time I saw him before that was after he graduated the year before I did. I actually lost his contact information and when I moved to a different school for grad school he no longer had a way to contact me either. So it does make me happy to see he is doing so well. He has a beautiful fiancée, it appears that his talent in music didn't go to waste, but it is ashame to not hear anything on the scientific front form him." She said but before anymore more could be said the alarm sounded.
Rose and Mack went down to watch the battle. Mack was curious if Kira would do what she did to Moltor again in this fight. Since Rose would probably be able to tell them what it was. The Five assorted rangers appeared in a park to find Moltor ,Mig and Bengalo digging for something.
"Hold it right there!" Tori called to the villains who looked up at them.
"Oh look the rangers." Mig said with a little laugh.
"Yeah I wonder if that yellow one will use that strange power to knock Moltor on his butt again." Bengalo said as he looked over at Mig.
"I have had enough of this!" Moltor said summoning his Lava Lizards. "And that little yellow will be going down this time. You two keep the other rangers busy!"
And with that the battle lines were drawn. The fear cats along with some Lava Lizards attacked four of the rangers. While Moltor engaged Kira.
"You know you can't beat me you only got close by catching me by surprise!" Kira said as she circled Moltor with her Ptera grips in hands as she rushed to Moltor. Kira knew she couldn't keep this up to long and unknown to her Moltor had a plan for the ranger and had Miratrix sneak attack the unsuspecting yellow ranger.
Adam and the other four had sent the fear cats running and easily handled the Lava Lizards. They looked over and saw Kira on the ground before Moltor and Miratrix. Tori, Bridge, and Xander were about to charge forward to help their friend and fellow ranger when Adam stopped them.
"Adam get out of the way she needs our help!" Tori said with tears in her eyes seeing her friend in that situation.

Next time: On know what is going to happen next. Is Adam betraying the team? Or does he know something he isn't letting on to?
A/N: I have most of the next chapter written so it shouldn't be up before to long. And how did the chapter flow was it to quick of a jump into the once a ranger thing? Or did the transition go okay. Well anyway please review and tell me what you thought. And if there are anythings left open from the first story you would like to see resolved just let me know and I will work it into the story. And if I can't a little one shot can always be written to take care of it for you.
Added Disclaimer: The nursery rhyme is 'Me and My Teddybear' I don't remember who it is by but it certainly wasn't me. And the Song of Nathan's is "It's My Life' by Bon Jovi with minor alterations to the names. Where it says Trini in the above lyrics is actually the name Frankie. And where Kira and Kendrix names are it is really Tommy and Gina.
