A/N I own nothing apart from the plot. A big shout out to all who have reviewed. I try to reply to them all.
RPM Ranger Base
"Dr K," said Scott as the rangers entered the base. They had just come back from the high school. "This is, um, what's your name again?"
Bridge wasn't paying attention. He was looking around the place. "Hello?" Scott interrupted his thoughts.
"Hmm? Oh. I am Bridge Carson and I am a red ranger in the future. Now can I have toast?"
They laughed and Flynn showed Bridge to the kitchen. He made him toast. "Is it buttery?" Bridge asked, wiggling his fingers on the word 'buttery'. "And don't comment on the finger wiggling please, I had a discussion with Sky about it before I came, and I am trying to think of a good comeback when I go back, and I don't want to waste it now in case he checks archives and expects me to say it; then he will win."
They just stared at him. They had no idea what the hell he was talking about. "By the way," he continued. "Would you rather sweat mayonnaise or donut fingers?"
They all looked at him after the stupidest statement they had ever heard. Ziggy was the one who broke the silence. "Would the fingers grow back if you ate them?" he asked Bridge. The others just looked at him.
"What? I was only answering his question." Scott smirked. "With another question?" Ziggy just shook his head and turned back to Bridge, who was thinking of an answer.
"I suppose so," he eventually said. "Then I would like the donut fingers," Ziggy said.
The others just laughed at the stupidity of the question and the reply while Bridge just took a big bite of his toast.
"He's gonna be here until Timmy works something out against Venjix," said Scott.
"Tommy," corrected Bridge, taking another bite of his toast.
Ollie and Scottie Hotel, Downtown Corinth
"I still don't know why you guys named this Ollie and Scottie," Wes told Tommy and Jason. When they had arrived in Corinth when Venjix had first tried to wipe out the human race, Tommy and Jason had met up with each other. They talked for a while about living arrangements and maybe it would be cheaper to share. They then met up with Wes and Eric and for a while they all lived in a Clock Tower that Wes asked his father to build because he missed his Ranger days.
They set up the Silver Guardians in the city and Tommy took a job teaching at the high school. Wes re-established Nick of Time and Jason ran that. After a while, Jason and Tommy bought a hotel. It was very good business.
"We named it Ollie and Scottie because his surname's Oliver," Jason said pointing to Tommy, "and my surname's Lee Scott."
Wes just shook his head. "Still, you could have named it something better…"
"Look, we are not here to discuss why Jason and I decided to name a hotel Ollie and Scottie," said Tommy. "We are here to organise a meeting with all the red rangers!"
"My eight are coming… one's already here," said Jason. "The other eight are coming too, and I'm afraid Venjix has destroyed RPM's morphers," said Tommy. "All except the red one."
Wes sighed. This was getting worse. They had to act quickly because the current rangers had nothing to use against Venjix's forces. "I need another drink," he said.
Jason went behind the bar and got him one. "I hope you are finished work for the day, I don't want Eric Myers giving out to me later because you went back to work drunk."
Wes laughed and took a sip of his drink. "Don't worry, I'm done and so is Eric."
"Hey, any word on when his wedding is?" asked Tommy. "Yeah," said Jason. "He and Taylor have been engaged for two years now."
Wes just shrugged. "Don't ask me! He never talks about it. He and Taylor are always too busy-"
"Don't wanna know!" Jason interrupted. Tommy and Wes laughed. "Oh, and I forgot to tell you I ran into Emily the last day," Jason continued.
Tommy sniggered. "How'd that go?" he asked. Jason just rolled his eyes and his friends knew to change the subject. Jason and Emily had a very bad break-up. "She just… nah I don't want to talk about it right now. I'll wait until I've had a few drinks…"
The other two laughed. They knew that he would just keep talking after a few drinks. "Anyway," said Wes. "I think that after the meeting on Saturday we just go straight away. He won't expect that."
The other two nodded in agreement. "Don't tell the others," said Tommy. "They should cop on to keep their morphers with them in case of an emergency. We don't want Venjix sniffing out our plans."
Friday night, RPM Ranger Base
"I like the way you make toast," Bridge said to Flynn. "Really buttery." He wiggled his fingers again. The others found this amusing. Bridge seemed to be getting on very well with Gem and Gemma. He had nicknamed them the "boom twins" because they liked to blow things up.
"Just tell us!" Scott demanded. They had been pestering Bridge to tell them if they succeeded or not. "And I keep telling you," Bridge said. "I don't know. And if I did know I probably forgot."
They all groaned. Bridge was indeed the weirdest person they had ever met. He had so many quirks, and they started to think that he was the reason they were having any fun at all. Without him, they would probably be depressed.
"Hey, Boom Twins, are you guys gonna be helping out with this thingy Tommy and Jason are doing?" Bridge asked Gem and Gemma.
"No we can't because," began Gem. "Our morphers aren't working," finished Gemma.
"Oh," said Bridge, looking a little disappointed. He wanted to see the twins in action.
"I think we should turn in early since we have that meeting really early tomorrow," Scott said to Bridge. "10am is not really early. In SPD we get up at like 5.30 or 6am."
"Well we don't," said Scott. Bridge gave in and went to bed. The others decided to turn in early too, even though they weren't going to go to the meeting because they couldn't really help without their morphers.
Jason's House
"Why did we all move out of the Clock Tower?" Eric asked his friends. "Such good times…" The others just shrugged. Now they all had their own houses, but all of them missed it. It was fun.
"When's the wedding?" Jason asked him after a while. "Well, Taylor keeps bugging me about it and I think we will get married in a month or two, but I'm not sure."
"As long as I get invited to it I don't care when it is," Wes said. "Of course you're invited, you're my best man!" Eric replied. "Well anyway, Taylor sent the invites today so you guys should get them soon."
"Hey Jase, you gonna tell us about Emily?" suggested Tommy.
Jason groaned. "It could not have gone worse!"
Jason's Flashback
Jason was looking for his usual toothpaste in a shop. He couldn't find it so he decided to leave. He went out into the street and bumped into someone. "Sorry," he said.
The girl he bumped into looked up. "Oh, Jason…" she said. Jason looked at her. "Emily?" he said in disbelief.
"So, how are you?" he asked her. "Fine," she snapped. "You don't sound fine," he said. She just gave him a dirty look. "Goodbye Jason," she said. She just walked off then rather quickly.
End of Flashback
"I'm not telling you about it," he said. Tommy laughed. "You just muttered everything!" he informed him.
"Yeah, we heard everything!" Wes said.
Jason groaned, picked up a cushion and buried his face in it. "What did you expect?" Tommy said. "You broke her heart!"
"But still!" Jason said, his voice muffled. "She didn't need to be that cold."
They all laughed. Tommy's cell phone rang. "Hello? Oh, hi. Yeah sure, how about Monday? Ok, see you then."
"You know, you shouldn't make promises in case you die tomorrow," said Eric. "Oh you're very optimistic, aren't you?" Tommy said sarcastically.
"You should tell us who you made plans with, just in case," Wes said whilst grinning.
Tommy shook his head. "If I die, you can have my cell phone, and when they call looking for me you can tell them." They all laughed. Trust Tommy to find a smart answer.
"Ok, so let's make plans for tomorrow," said Jason and they began to plan what they could do.
A/N So what do you think? Reviews please! The fight should be next chapter because my 7 year old cousin is bugging me again.
