Alrighty, the second chapter of my second story in this series... So far so good right?
So... the Disclaimer...
Disclaimer: I do not own Power Rangers Ninja Storm or it's characters. All I own is Celea and a few other OCs... and the Academy she goes to, and it's moves.
Hunter
"Can't you go any faster?!" I exclaimed nervously as I sat next to Connor in Dr. O's Jeep as the Teacher drove us somewhere.
"Hunter, trust me, I wanna find the girls just as badly as you do." He sighed.
"Celea's my girlfriend! I can't let those Tyranno... whatevers... hurt her!" I retorted. I lost her two times before, I wasn't about to make it three.
"Dude, calm down." Connor put a hand on my shoulder, "What's got you acting so worried anyway?"
I stared off into space for a few moments before I answered, "It's complicated."
"When you said you helped create those things," Ethan changed the subject, "You were just kidding, right?"
"They weren't supposed to be used like this." Was Dr. O's answer, "Someone's modified their programming."
"Programming?" I questioned him.
Dr. O sighed, "A few years back, I was doing research on combining Dinosaur DNA with technology. My partner a scientist named Anton Mercer-"
"The rich guy who disappeared years ago!" Ethan noted. I raised a brow; first time I heard about that guy.
"Yep." Dr. O nodded, "Shortly after Mercer disappeared, our lab was attacked. All of our research was destroyed. Or at least I thought it was."
"And the guy that did that, is back?" Connor questioned the Teacher.
"He calls himself," Dr. O stopped the car when we got to a stop sign, "Mesogog."
"And you think he's after the Gems?" Connor raised a brow.
"Looks like it." Dr. O nodded.
"Look, this is all fascinating and all." I interjected, "But how is this helping us find Celea... and Kira." I added the other girls name quickly so I wouldn't sound selfish. "I mean... it's not like she's gonna fall out of the sky and land right in front us!" The sky right above the Jeep turned green, and two forms fell onto the hood of the vehicle.
We all looked at what fell on top of the car with wide eyes. We all quickly got out and helped them off the hood and to their feet.
I gave Celea a once over before I hugged her tightly, "Thank God you're alright!" I released her when I heard her groan in pain.
"Hey, you weren't thinking they'd really get me after two fails did you?" Celea raised a brow as she whispered that to me.
"Uh... no..." I lied.
"You're a horrible liar, Bradly." I chuckled lightly as she used my last name.
Ethan looked up at the sky, "How did you guys do that?" He sounded WAY to excited for an answer.
"I have no idea." Celea answered.
"Neither do I." Kira shook her head.
"One minute we're being chased by Franken-Lizards through this creepy lab, and the next thing we know, we're hood ornaments." Celea and Kira explained as simply as possible.
"Invisa-portals." Dr. O looked at us after he looked at the sky.
"Whatever..." Kira griped.
"Next time, I'm calling a cab." Celea added.
"There's not gonna be a next time, and you know it." I looked at her sternly.
'Hunt, I've gone my whole life on my own, I can handle myself.' Celea rolled her eyes.
"Fine... but if you ever get captured alone, or these guys find out, Ninja Streak out of there." I decided and her face paled slightly.
'You know I hate Ninja Streaking!' She griped. I just smiled.
"Wait... what are you guys doing here?" Kira asked us.
"We came to rescue you and Celea." Connor replied.
"Nice job, way to show up when we don't need you anymore." Kira rolled her eyes.
"She's got a lot to learn about jinxes, doesn't she?" I rolled my eyes and Celea just gave a small nod in reply.
We looked a little ways down the road, and some of those weird Tyrannodrone coming at us, "You sure about that?" I questioned her. Connor, Ethan, Kira, Celea and I got onto a triangular formation With Celea and I on Connor's left, and Ethan and Kira on his right. I blinked when I saw something that looks similar to Zurgane walking in front of them.
'Not Zurgane, I promise you. He's name's Zeltrax.' Celea told me.
"Got it... though, the resemblances is a little uncanny." I noted.
'That's true.' Celea agreed.
"Mesogog find a new goon to do his dirty work?" Dr. O questioned 'Zeltrax'.
"You are not fit to speak my master's name." I tried not to roll his eyes, "Come with my peacefully or suffer the consequences."
"I'm gonna have to say; No." Dr. O answered simply.
Zeltrax raised an ax as the Tyrannodrones ran up to us and Dr. O moved out of the way.
Leaving us to fight the things. Celea and I stood back to back.
"You thinking what I'm thinking?" I glanced over my shoulder at her.
"Do it!" Celea nodded.
"You got it!" I smirked and stomped my foot into the ground, sending a shock-wave, and making several Tyrannodrones lose their footing. I added to their pain by sending thunder at them. They were destroyed within seconds.
"My turn!" Celea cheered, before I saw her hold a hand out and it turned into the prehistoric talon, before she cut at a few of the Reptile freaks with it. She grinned like mad, before her hand went back to normal and she spread both of them out causing a wave a white light to flow over the Dino-monsters, the light disappeared and they weren't there anymore. I high-fived her as we continued to fight.
I heard Dr. O ramming into his Jeep, and I glanced over to see him red in the face in pain. "Looks like Mesogog made a few improvements." The teacher breathed out.
Zeltrax raised his ax again and started at him. Celea and I rushed over to help fight when he fell to the ground and attacked the Zurgane wannabe. "You two sure like fighting." Celea gave Zeltrax two round-house kicks, before I answered for us.
"Let's just say; we've been training our whole lives." I stated simply. I jumped out of the way of the ax and Celea kicked Zeltrax in the gut, before we both moved closer to Dr. O.
We regrouped with the others. "Make sure you tell your master; Doctor Oliver's back." Dr. O informed the Armored monster.
"I will inform his this battle is over, but the war has only just begun." Zeltrax rephrased before he and the other Tyrannodrones disappeared in a flash of green light.
"That's the best he could do?" Ethan questioned the frantic disappearance of the Zurgane wannabe.
"Don't push your luck." I mumbled, "Don't want him coming back for seconds."
"Let's get you five out of here." Dr. O suggested, walking over to the driver side of the car, "It's getting late, I don't want your parents to worry." Celea and I instinctively gripped each other's hand at the mention of parents.
"I bet you don't." I resisted the strong urge to punch Connor, "Then you'd have to explain something."
"I'll fill you in tomorrow after school." Dr. O decided, "I promise." We sighed, accepting that answer, and got into the Jeep.
Later that night
"For the last time Hunt, I'm fine." Celea groaned after I picked her up and put her on the couch in our Hotel room.
"I was so worried Cel..." I held back the tears, I only cried when I hugged her now, so she wouldn't see them, "You could've gotten killed... or controlled."
"But, as you can see, I'm alive and uncontrolled. So please stop worrying." Celea sighed heavily.
I sat beside her, and wrapped an arm around her shoulders, "Okay... wanna watch a movie?"
"It's movie night, isn't it." A smile crept onto our faces.
"Which one?" I asked, going over to the T.V. set and opening a cabinet full of movies.
"Back to the Future." Celea decided.
"Which part?" I tried not to roll my eyes, she's been obsessed with that movie ever since she went back in time with Cam.
"Three." Celea chose.
I put the movie's disk into the DVD player, before sitting beside her again.
I then kissed her forehead, "I love you."
Celea smiled lightly, "I love you too."
The next day at school
I walked into Dr. O's class and was about to follow Celea to her seat when the blond Marah look-alike stepped in front of me.
"Hunter Bradley, Cassidy Cornell, Reefside news network." Cassidy smiled.
"Cassidy, I really don't wanna talk to you." I rolled my eyes and tried to step away from her, but she stepped in front of me again.
"Yeah, whatever, what can you tell me about the strange things going on in Reefside?" Cassidy asked holding up a tape recorder, "For example, the sudden friendship between soccer star, Connor McKnight, Kira Ford, Ethan James, new student Celea Palensa, and yourself."
"That's none of your concern." I growled angrily before I finally got away from her and sat beside Celea.
"Gave you a hard time, huh?" Celea smiled jokingly at me.
"Put a sock in it." I sighed and smiled.
We both groaned when Cassidy went over and tried to get information out of Kira.
"Cassidy, unless you plan on giving a lecture on the Mesozoic period, I suggest you take your seat." Celea and I smiled and tried not to laugh as Dr. O got behind his desk.
Cassidy was embarrassed and sat down.
"Okay, who can tell me when it all began?"
I was about to raise my hand, when an earthquake came out of nowhere and shook the school.
'Is Dustin doing this?' Celea looked out the window.
"I don't think so... he's may be able to go into the earth... but I don't think he can make this big an earthquake." I answered, she may have graduated Wind Academy but she still didn't know everything about Wind Ninjas.
Suddenly the lights went out and the sky darkened.
"Uh... Hunter... you're gonna wanna looking at this..." Celea got up and walked over to the windows, followed by me and other students.
"Could it be Lothor again?" I asked her.
'He's in the Abyss of Evil, remember?' Celea reminded me.
"There's always a chance." I noted.
Celea gave me a pointed look and I dropped the subject.
I pulled Celea closer as the sky went black and thunder and lighting were the only things lighting up the sky.
"Cassidy! You're not gonna believe this!" I glanced over my shoulder to see Cassidy's cameraman, Devin, running up to her.
"Let me guess, the sky just turned black in the middle of the day?" Cassidy guessed.
I smirked, looks like Devin isn't known for his brains.
"It did?" Devin looked over at the window, "Woah, look at that!" I rolled my eyes, definitely not known for his brains.
"Devin?! Hello!" Cassidy waved her hand in front of him, gaining his attention, "What did you wanna tell me?"
"Oh, right... I just heard this wak report of mechanical Dinosaurs attacking downtown." That got Celea and Dr. O's attention.
"Oh! Get your camera!" Cassidy and Devin were about to rush out of the room, when Dr. O stopped them.
"Hold it you two." He instructed before the intercom turned on.
"Students remain calm, the mayor has declared a state of emergency, please report to the front of the school for immediate dismissal." The Secretary's voice called in. Everyone, besides, Dr. O, Connor, Ethan, Kira, Celea and myself, rushed out.
"Dr. O, now would be a good time to have that little chat." Kira walked over to the teacher as did the rest of us.
"We're outta time." I inwardly groaned, he's not gonna answer us one way or another, "If Mesogog revived the Bio-Zords, we gotta act fast. Come with me."
With that he rushed out of the room.
"What's the worst that can happen?" Ethan asked rhetorically.
"Did you seriously just ask that?" I looked over at him before we followed Dr. O.
Celea
Underneath Dr. Oliver's house…
"So these mechanical dinosaurs... are your friends?" I wanted to make sure I wasn't just hearing things. We walked down the steps of his house and into the basement.
"Bio-Zords." Dr. O corrected as he walked over to some console, "Fusion powered replicates. They use actual Dinosaur DNA for the binary functions."
"Uh..." I blinked, that sounded like something Cam would say...and I only understood Cam on occasion!
"Can you repeat that in words that we can understand?" Hunter added.
"Wait... you helped build them, didn't you?" Ethan must've been the only one that understood him.
"I'm afraid so." Dr. O nodded sadly, "But right now, you have to tame them."
I blinked, "Did he just say TAME?!"
'I think he did.' Hunter answered his mouth wide with shock and fear.
"I'll BBL, if it's all the same to you." Connor told informed the Teacher.
"What's that mean?" Dr. O asked.
"Be back later." I answered before I stepped in front of Connor, "Connor, you can't just walk out on this now. These Bio-Zords could do some SERIOUS harm to innocent lives!"
"Look, I never even signed up for something like this." Connor countered.
"And you think we did?" I motioned to the others, "You're a part of a team, now, Connor. Whether you like it or not."
"Connor, you can do this, and you won't have to do it alone." Dr. O added, walking pasted us, "Ever since I found the Dino-Gems, I've had these waiting, encase I ever needed to harness their power."
"Into what?" Kira questioned as we walked over to him, and he opened a briefcase. Which held what looked like five different colored Morphers appeared.
One was red, and looked like part of a T. Rex head. One was yellow, and looked like a thin Pterodactyl. One was blue, and I think it looked like a Triceratops' head. One was dark green, and had the top of a Velociraptor's head. And the last one was Magenta and had the head of the Ingenia Dinosaur.
"Dino Morphers." Dr. O answered, "Use these to become Power Rangers."
"And there goes our chance at being normal." Hunter and I sighed heavily in our thoughts.
"I gotta sit down." Ethan, Hunter and I leaned against the table.
"We can't be Power Ranger." Kira noted, "Aren't you supposed to fly, or have Superhuman strength?"
'Superhuman Strength? Really?!' Hunter and I rolled our eyes.
"You do." Dr. O reminded her.
"Oh yeah... I forgot..." Kira blushed.
"Your gems are from the asteroid that crashed into earth Millions of years ago." Dr. O continued, "Wiping out the entire Dinosaur population. When I found them, I recognized their power and hid them so they won't fall into the wrong hands."
"How do you know these are the right hands?" Connor asked.
"I know two of you for sure know the answer." Dr. O looked at Hunter and I and we quickly avoided eye-contact, "For the rest of you, I'll answer simply. The Gems are yours, you didn't choose them, they chose you." Dr. O walked back over to the console.
"Can't they unchoose us?" I asked meekly.
"They've already bonded with your DNA. That's what's giving you, your powers." Dr. O answered, "Well... newly found powers." Again Hunter and I avoided eye-contact.
"So if they already bonded with us, how come Mesogog and his creeps are still after them?" Hunter asked, taking the subject off us.
"The only way these powers can be taken away, is if your destroyed." Was Dr. O's pointed answer.
"Okay, for future reference, that's not a great selling point." Ethan noted.
"The Gems wouldn't have bonded with ya if you didn't already have something inside that could handle the power." Dr. O walked back to the briefcase again.
"Is it just me, or does he know about our Thunder and Lunar lives?" I asked Hunter.
'Looks like it.' Hunter answered.
"Now please..." Dr. O pushed the briefcase forward. We each slowly reach for the Morpher that was identical in color to the Gem that was 'bonded' to us.
"So now what?" Hunter asked looking at his new Morpher.
"Do we need some kind of password or command?" Ethan added.
"All you have to say is 'Dino Thunder, Power up' and you'll be transformed." Dr. O answered.
"To bad it doesn't rhyme." I remembered The Wind, Thunder, Samurai, and Lunar morphing call out.
'Still has four words. And it's the same for all of us this time.' Hunter added.
"Good point." I gave a small smile to him.
"Look... I know you five are from different worlds." Dr. O continued, "I get it. But you're all gonna have to work together, or this will never happen. This won't be easy. Nobody knows that better than I do, but you're gonna hafta believe in yourselves. Cause I believe in you."
"Really?" I questioned after his speech.
"Really." Dr. O nodded.
10 minutes later...
Dr. O drove us to where the Bio-Zords were. "Those look like Zords alright..." I gulped. And Hunter put his hand on my shoulder to calm me down.
'It's gonna be okay... I promise.' He promised me. When Dr. O parked we jumped out, and ran closer to our soon-to-be Zords.
"That must be them." Connor stated the obvious.
"Wow good call, Connor." I rolled my eyes. Suddenly a Red mass appeared out of nowhere and transformed into Zeltrax.
"You'll have to get pass me to get to those Zords." He growled.
"That's the part I've been looking forward to." Hunter smirked.
"You guys ready?" I asked the new team of Rangers.
"You bet!" Connor smiled madly.
"Oh yeah." Kira grinned.
"Better believe it." Ethan nodded.
Connor stepped in front of us his Morpher on his Left wrist, "Ready?!"
"Ready!" The rest of us brought up our Morphers.
We pushed the Dino heads on our Morphers open, before we moved our Morpher arms to the right side of our heads.
"Dino Thunder!" We pushed our right hands forward and our Left arms bent behind us, "Power up! Ha!"
We moved our right arms across us, and pushed a button on our Morphers.
When we finished Morphing, we all gasped at our Ranger outfits.
Mine was similar to Kira's in the sense that the top part went down a little more like a skirt, and it had all the special designs on it. But mine was a semi-Dark green, while hers was a Yellow.
I glanced over at Hunter and smirked behind my helmet, "Man I can't believe I missed this so much..."
'Same here.' Hunter replied.
"So you're Power Rangers?!" Zeltrax growled. We quickly got into fighting stances.
"Call your weapons! They're in your belt!" Dr. O advised.
"You got it Dr. O!" Connor called out as our belts started to glow and suddenly a weapon came out of each of our belts.
"Sweet! I got a Tyranno Staff!" Connor griped the Red and White staff.
"I can come to grips with this, Ptera Grips!" Kira held her two daggers.
"Awesome! An Ingen Sword!" Hunter snatched up the Magenta and white handled hilt of said sword.
"Cool! I can get used to this Veloci Whip!" I smirked at the feeling of the handle of my new Green and White whip.
"Sweet! A Tricera Shield!" Ethan held out his Blue, white lined, and gold shield.
We all got back into defensive positions after that. "Enough." Was all Zeltrax said before 'Tyrannodrones' came down from an 'Invisa-portal'.
They ran at us and we started fighting. I continuously smirked as I hit each one right where I aimed my whip.
'Show a little restraint!' Hunter called into my thoughts, 'We can't let them know we've fought like this before!'
"Says the boy that's using his Thunder Staff skills with his new sword." I glanced over at Hunter who was doing just as I said.
"Touché." Hunter acknowledged.
I kicked a Tyrannodrone over to him and he sliced it down to size.
"Nice one!" Hunter and I fist-bumped.
"You too." I nodded. I looked around and saw Zeltrax running away, I growled and ran in front of him, "Freeze ya freak!"
"You first!" He growled before he sent a purple laser that wrapped around me, lifted me up, and made me his a steel pole before releasing me.
"Oh No! Deja vu!" I groaned softly as the others gathered around me and I slowly stood up ready to fight again.
"You okay?" Hunter asked quickly.
I nodded, "Just a little sore in my back, but I'll be fine."
"Not for long!" Zeltrax shot lasers at us from his head sending us to the ground.
"Okay... he is DEFINITELY NOT like Zurgane!" Hunter and I agreed.
"Rangers! Combine your weapons!" Dr. O instructed as we slowly got up.
"Right!" We all nodded.
Kira put her two Daggers on top of Ethan's shield, while I folded my whip and put it securely around it, Hunter put his sword blade pointing out right under the whip, and Connor folded his Staff up and put it above the whip in the bottom of the shield, and the head of the Staff facing out, underneath the whip above it.
"Z-Rex Blaster! Ready! Fire!"
We each held up a piece of the Blaster as it sent an energy wave (that looked almost like the teeth of a Dinosaur) at Zeltrax. We turned around, our own weapons back in our hands.
We sent Zeltrax flying, but it didn't destroy him. We quickly got ready to fight him again as he got up, "You showed me your weapons! Now meet mine!" He disappeared in a flash of red. We ran over to Dr. O and as Beams of energy came down from the ship in the sky sending us closer to his Jeep.
"How do we fight THAT?!" Hunter gasped.
"You're gonna have to tame the Bio-Zords." Dr. O informed us, "Concentrate, your Morphers will communicate your thoughts to them."
"Okay." We nodded.
"Let's go!" Hunter shouted before we ran out in front of the rampaging Zords.
"Whoa! They're huge!" Connor gasped.
To be perfectly honest... I had to agree with him.
The Bio-Zords were huger than the Ninja Zords!
"Whoa there boy... nice and easy..." Ethan slowly walked up to the Tricera Zord, before talking into his Morpher, "That's right... I'm your friend."
The Tricera Zord glowed and changed from a menacing dark lime color to a calm blue color.
"Okay... My turn. Ptera Zord!..." Kira raised her Left arm to the sky, "We can be friends, right?"
The Bio-Zord responded by becoming Yellow and White.
"Now me." Hunter gulped before he raised his fist up, "Ingen Zord! We're all all buddies here."
The Ingen Zord turned Magenta with white markings on it's tail and arms.
"Me next!" I cheered, before I held my Morpher to my mouth, "Hey there... Veloci Zord. it's okay... I'm not gonna hurt you... we're good, okay?"
The Veloci Zord turned a calming green color with white strips on the bottom of it's tail.
Our four now calm Zords were thrown back by the Tyranno Zord's tail. "Connor! The Tyranno Zord's still outta control!" Hunter snapped.
"Do something! NOW!" I added.
"Come on! I need you to work with me here!" Connor growled at his Zord before lifting his left arm up, "Tyranno Zord!"
Said Zord turned Red with white and Gold accents.
"Yes!" We all ran over to him.
"Only one more thing to do." Dr. O ran up to us, "Bring them together! You can do it!"
"Right!" We nodded, "Let's go!" With that we jumped into our Zords.
'Woah... I gotta say, it's a lot cooler than the old one.' Hunter commented.
"I'd have to agree with you." I agreed as a ball materialized in front of us.
I put my hands on it as everyone called out, "Logging in." I was grinning like mad behind my Helmet, I actually missed doing things like this. "Combine powers!"
Tommy
Celea's Zord folded up and became the right leg of the Megazord, while Hunter's became the Left. Ethan's Zord became the Right arm, while the left was the Tyranno Zord's tail. Kira's Zord wrapped around the head of the Tyranno Zord on the chest, and the newly formed head on the top.
I couldn't see inside the Megazord so I don't know what it looked like when they combined. "It worked!" The five new Dino Rangers cheered happily.
"Your robot is no match for me."
And just to prove his point, Zeltrax sent a beam energy at the Megazord from the ship. Sending it stumbling back, but not to the ground. Zeltrax then sent ropes down and around the Megazord arms and electrocuting it.
It seemed to do some damage but other than that, The Megazord was fine.
I grinned when they used the rope to their advantage and swung up above the ship, before Connor used the Dino-drill to destroy it, and landed safely on the ground.
"Yes! They did it!" I cheered as the sky turned blue again.
Later that day
We were in the basement of my house again, as I opened the briefcase that held their Dino-Morphers, before they turned into bracelets.
I walked over to the group of five and held the briefcase out.
"Keep these bracelets with you at all times, they'll access your Morphers when you need them." Each teen took the bracelet that held their Dino-Gem, "And, you can use these to communicate with me, and with each other."
Once Hunter took his (The last one in the case) I moved away to put the briefcase up.
"Dr. O... I know you're really smart and a science teacher and everything..." Celea piped up, "But this is... I mean how did you...?"
"I'll fill ya in, in time." I answered simply.
"Speaking of time," Hunter stepped in, "Do ya think Mesogog's gonna stick around for a while?"
"Unfortunately they always do." I sighed, and caught Hunter and Celea having some sort of silent conversation but I let it pass, no sense in revealing anything right now.
"They?" Connor questioned my wording.
"I know this is a lot to take in," I avoided the question, "Your lives have just changed, in ways you probably couldn't have imagined. But as long as you ALL work together, and remember you're all members of a team, no one can defeat you. And I mean it."
Everyone examined their new bracelets one last time.
"Well... I'm always up for a challenge." Celea put hers on her left wrist.
"Good, cause this is gonna get even harder." I noted.
"We'll be there to help, Dr. O." The other four agreed and put their Bracelets on their left wrist.
"Great." I nodded, "Now go home, you five definitely deserve the rest."
"Yes! Video games here I come!" Ethan cheered and ran up the stairs.
"Gotta get my guitar and meet with the band!" Kira ran up next.
"I can't believe it! I almost forgot about soccer practice!" Connor superspeeded up the stairs.
That left Celea and Hunter to stare at me with their arms folded.
"What?" I questioned them, though I already knew my answer.
"Dr. O, you know something about Celea and I, don't you?" Hunter was the one to ask.
I sighed heavily, I knew that question was coming, "You'll find out what I know soon, I'm sorry to say, but I can't tell you now."
Celea and Hunter sighed in unison, "Alright, but soon."
I nodded in agreement, "Okay, now get going, don't want your parents to worry."
Their hands went together the second I mentioned parents, before they headed up the steps.
I walked over to a small closet and put on a black jacket, before walking over to the Console and siting down. I sighed again, "This is gonna be one hard team to keep together."
I turned my chair around, and typed in the code to get to my Video Diary.
I turned the camera on, and pressed Record, "I'm Tommy Oliver. If you're not me, then something is seriously wrong. This video diary's a confidential record. Only to be viewed, encase of an emergency. What you're about to see, is the history of my life. My history, as a Power Ranger."
Here ya go. Man... this took a long time for me to right... hope ya'll thought it was good though... and, again, don't mind that Hunter's a Dino Ranger...
Please review and tell me what you think... please no flames.
