Chapter Two
Gia's POV
I was laying on my bed, listening to a cd that Jake made for me, when I got a text from Emma. When I read it, my eyes widened, I hit the "1" button, which is her speed dial number, and I turned the music off. I hit "send", put it to my ear, and waited. She answered on the first ring, saying, "Hello?"
"Hey, it's me. What do you mean, you can't find Troy? He's not with you?"
"You mean, he's not home?"
"No, tell me what happened, Em."
"Well, we went to the library, and I got on the computer to look up a plant that I had found, while he looked at books. After that, he stayed there, and I went back out into the forest to find it again. When I came back, I couldn't find him, so I asked the librarian if he had left already. She said that he left not long after I did. What do we do, Gia?"
Noticing the slightly panicked edge to her voice, and feeling that way myself for my big brother, I answered quickly, "Ok, I'm gonna text Noah and Jake, and tell them to come over. Go to the school, and they'll pick you up."
"I tried calling him, and he didn't answer. So, I texted him, and he didn't answer that, either."
"Ok, just go on, and I'll see you in a few minutes."
"…Ok."
I hung up, and quickly texted the other two. After that, I ran out of my room, downstairs, and told mom and dad that my brother was missing. Dad said as they stood up, "What do you mean, Troy's missing?"
"Emma and Troy went to the library after school, and then she left to go to the forest, while he stayed there. When she came back, she couldn't find him, so she asked the librarian if he had already left, and she said, that he had left not long after she had."
Mom looked at dad, and said, "Flynn, call the others."
He nodded, and picked up the phone.
Jake's POV
I picked Noah up, in my car, since he had accidentally hit the tree in his front yard. I could tell Uncle Scott, his dad, was upset, but he wasn't really mad. He was just glad that he was ok. When he got into the car, he said as he got his seatbelt on, "I wonder what they want to meet so late for."
I shrugged, and said, "I guess we'll find out."
Before we could drive away, Uncle Scott ran out, carrying a box, and Noah asked as he rolled his window down, "What's wrong? Did I forget something?"
Uncle Scott answered, "Flynn just called, and said that Troy was missing. I need to be there for them."
I nodded, saying, "Get in."
He slid in through the passenger back door, and I said, "What do you mean, Troy's missing? I thought he was with Emma."
"When she got back to the library from the forest, he wasn't there. And, he's not at home, either."
Noah and I glanced at each other, and Uncle Scott said, "Eyes on the road, Jake."
As I looked back in front of me, I said, "Yes, sir."
Noah's POV
We picked up Emma, who was crying hysterically, and we drove to the McAllistairs' house, as dad pulled Emma to him. It didn't take us long to get there. When he walked in, the first thing I saw worried me. I saw Gia sitting on the couch, crying, with her mom, Aunt Summer sitting beside her, comforting her. I saw Uncle Flynn pacing in the corner, and the twins' dad, Uncle Dillon, was trying to get him to stop. Uncle Ziggy staring at the phone, as if expecting Troy, or his kidnappers, to call. When we came in, my dad went over to Uncle Dillon and Uncle Flynn. Emma ran into her dad's open arms, and cried into his chest. I glanced at Jake, and he back at me, both of us, just standing there, not knowing what to do.
Jake's POV
I walked over to Emma, while Noah went to Gia, and we did our best to comfort them. I nodded to dad as I hugged her, and he nodded back, walking away. I whispered as she cried into my chest, "It's gonna be ok, Em. We'll get him back."
"We don't even know where he is, or who took him."
"We'll find out, sis. I swear to you, we will find him."
She nodded, and continued to cry against me. I looked over at Noah, who was Gia, and he nodded, letting me know that she was ok. Soon, I heard Emma slowly stop crying, and her breathing slowed. I looked over at Noah, who was holding a sleeping Gia, and he looked at me. I mouthed, Is Emma asleep?
He nodded, and I said, "Hey, guys? We're gonna take the girls upstairs."
Our parents nodded, and Noah stood up. We gently picked the girls up, and went upstairs. Noah laid Gia on her bed, while I took my sister into Troy's room, laying her on his bed. I kissed her forehead, and then I noticed the little red dragon that she had gotten him, laying on the other pillow. I picked it up, and gently put it in the crook of her arm, smiling. I walked out, and saw that Noah was waiting for me. As I came to a stop in front of him, he asked, "Do you think that one of the monsters got him?"
"Who else could it be?"
He shrugged, and I said, "I think we need to tell our parents what's going on."
"You mean…about the ranger stuff?"
I nodded, and said, "I think it's time."
He hesitated, and then said as he nodded, "I think you're right."
We walked downstairs, and our parents looked at us. Uncle Ziggy asked, "How're the girls?"
"They're fine. I put that little red dragon that Emma gave to Troy in the crook of her arm."
Aunt Summer broke down, and Uncle Flynn walked over to her, and got on his knees in front of her. He wrapped his arms around her, and said, "We're going to get him back, Sum."
Noah and I looked at each other, and he mouthed, Wait.
I nodded, agreeing that now wasn't the right time. Dad looked over at Uncle Scott, who nodded. Dad looked at us, and said, "Guys, sit down."
Noah and I glanced at each other, and then sat on the floor. Dad sighed, and said, "That's not what I meant."
Uncle Scott, who had his arms crossed, stepped forward, and said, "Guys, we have something to tell you."
I looked at Noah, who shrugged. We looked back at Uncle Scott, and saw that he had opened the box. He took out three phone-looking things, and two wrist communicator things. He turned to look at us, and said, "You can't tell anyone what we're about to tell you, boys. Do you understand?"
We both nodded, and he said, "Are you aware of the Power Rangers?"
Again, we nodded. He said, "Well, twenty years ago, we were the RPM Rangers. We had to live in a dome-covered city, to be protected from the poisoned environment."
Our mouthes dropped, and I tried to make something come out, until Noah said, "What?"
I shook my head, and said, "No way."
Dad said, "It's true, Jake."
Aunt Summer had calmed down, so she stood up, and said, as she walked over to the rest of our parents, "Scott, maybe we should show them."
He looked at her, and nodded. He looked at the others, and they nodded. He tossed one of the phones each to Uncle Flynn and Aunt Summer, and tossed the two wrist communicators to Uncle Ziggy and dad, keeping the last phone for himself. They stood in a line, and he asked as he looked to both sides of him, "You ready, guys?"
They nodded, and they all yelled, "RPM, get in gear!"
As they morphed, Noah and I jumped up. When they were fully morphed, I thought, They were telling the truth. I looked at my dad, who I couldn't believe was the black RPM Power Ranger, and then I looked at Noah, who was looking at his dad. I said, "Noah, I think it's time."
He looked at me, hesitated for a few seconds, and then nodded. We looked back at them, and I said, "Guys, we have something to show you. Don't say anything, just watch, ok?"
They nodded, and I said as I looked at Noah, "You ready?"
He nodded, and we pulled out our own morphers, and cards. We yelled as we held the morphers up, putting the cards in and shutting them, "Go go, Megaforce!"
After we morphed, we looked at our parents. When they didn't say anything, Noah said, "Will someone please say something?"
Uncle Ziggy was the first to speak, saying, "Guys, we knew you were the Megaforce Rangers."
Shocked, I asked, "What? How?"
Uncle Flynn said, "Well, you had forgotten your lunch at home, a few weeks ago, so your dad followed you, and saw the five of you morph."
Noah asked, "Well, why didn't you say anything?"
Aunt Summer answered, "We wanted to see how long you could go before you told us."
Uncle Scott said, "Power down."
When we were all demorphed, Aunt Summer asked, "Boys, do you have any possible suspects, of who could've taken Troy?"
I shook my head, saying, "We honestly don't know who could've taken him, unless it was one of the monsters."
Uncle Flynn said, "Before you guys got here, Gia said something about Troy being bullied at school today. Want to tell us what happened?"
Noah nodded, and said, "He was looking down at some papers, and he didn't see them."
Uncle Scott interrupted, saying, "Who's 'them', son?"
"Shawn and Micheal, the biggest bullies in the school. When they stopped in front of him, he finally looked up. Emma and I couldn't really hear what they were saying, but after a minute or so, they walked away. A little while later, we heard them picking on a smaller kid. He stood up to them again."
I looked at him, and said, "Dude, you don't think that maybe they could've done something to him, do you?"
"Do you think they could've gone this far?"
When I didn't answer, Uncle Flynn said, "Boys, tomorrow we're all going to the school with you. If they've done something to Troy, we'll find out."
My blue-clad cousin and I nodded, and Uncle Ziggy said, "Don't worry, everyone. We'll find him."
We all looked at him, hoping that he was telling the truth, and that we would find Troy soon. I thought, Troy, where are you man? We need you, and not just because you're the Red Ranger. We all need you, because you're family.
