Ch 4

Tommy and yellow

Kira and I decided to get to know each other a little better, but I guess we'll be doing that more than often as we will be in a recording studio with each other a long time.

Kira didn't really protest to the things I put her up to or anything she more than anything just took it in and even though I was as mean as I could she still pulled a smile at me and I wondered why she wanted me to like her so much, I mean I already did, I was just testing her.

She's driving and I guess it means a lot that I let her drive, young kids like her always want to be the ones driving especially if you've only had your license for a while.

I see that she pays attention to the road and starts humming a little melody that I could recognize almost anywhere.

"Hmm…."

"Is that the Angel Grove High Song you're humming?" I ask her.

"Yeah, you know it don't you?" She says as she picks up the humming again.

"Angel Grove, Hayiahiayah…." I hear myself sing the words. Kira joins in and soon we're harmonizing and just like so many years ago that I heard both Kat and Aisha's recording I feel all tingly inside remembering the old days.

"So, Dr. O and his lady love invited me to go eat at their house do you wanna go?" Kira asks, its so weird for me when she calls Tommy that but I guess its something I'll have to get used to.

"Oh, I was also invited, we night as well head over there, Kat is an amazing cook she'll definitely have something delicious."

"Cool, then." She says as we both start harmonizing again.


Going back to school wasn't easy and trying to get your diploma and at the same time was so stressful that I hoped for the day when none of it would stress me.

Taking classes in the afternoon wasn't easy either, I mean, having to work a full shift and then go to school tired and somehow in between all that have time to do your homework. That was stressful, I often found myself thinking what if I went back to Dennis and tell him that I was wrong and that I would gladly do whichever music he picked for me.

But then again, no. I had left him because I was tired and I needed more than anything to go out any find myself. I needed to go find something that inspired me again. I really didn't have to look farther, music is my inspiration and so having it in whatever way I could have it was what I needed.

So I worked my way through college and eventually graduated at the top of my class in mixing music and off I went to find a musician who I believe I could help.

It took me a while but I began to look and to be honest there sure are a lot of musicians with great vocal, but unlike me who want to inspire other with their music and lyrics, they just want in for the money.

When I started noticing that I promised myself that I just wouldn't hire anyone, that I would test them to see if they were really there for their music or if they wanted to make a difference with their music, since then that's been what I've been looking for when I sign someone.

People with integrity that are going to speak their minds and will have my support because they chose to run against the current and instead of doing it for the money they did it to get their music heard.

I had been looking for someone for a while and when Tommy introduced me to Kira I was hyped, but like all other singers and musicians I had to make sure she was here for the same reasons I was here.

I looked her up and own and heard some of her songs and I liked them, but how could I be sure what she really wanted.

Finally, when he invited me that night to go see her I was nervous because her voice was amazing and I know that first impressions say a lot about a person so I was counting that she wouldn't let me down.


And she didn't and now we're here and so far she's been withstanding it all, but I know she'll pull though. She's got something that I don't see in every artist, but for me I really can't tell what it is.

"We're here." She announces and I quickly get out.

"Hmm, I would've thought Tommy might've picked a place closer to our old town, but I guess this is home for him."

"Yeah, well you'd be surprised why he chose this place…"

"Huh?"

"Oh, uhmm I think they're waiting for us."

"OK, hopefully its good. I'm starving."


Dinner was great and now Kat and I sit in the living room, while Tommy is downstairs looking for a dvd to watch. Kira went to the bathroom.

"I wonder what's taking Tommy so long, its his house and he doesn't seem to find a dvd." Kat says as we look around and notice for the first time in fifteen minutes that the house is too quiet.

Then we both quickly get up and head for the bathroom maybe Kira is in there or something's happened to her. Kat taps lightly on the door, and she does, the door opens wide. We take a peak and notice that no one is there.

"That's odd, this is the only restroom downstairs, where's Kira?" Kat asks to no one in particular.

"Maybe she went upstairs."

"No, I doubt it, its her first time here, I wonder where she went, Tanya can you go look downstairs for Tommy, I'll go check upstairs."

I turn and head for the door leading to the basement. I hate dark places and to go and suffocate there I feel almost insecure to go look for him.

I open the door and notice that the lights are off, weird, why would he turn off the lights? I ask myself, I don't want to go down there and definitely not alone, when I can't see anything, I might fall.

I hear a faint off sound coming from downstairs and keep quiet as I also hear a muffled voice, hmm maybe I should go investigate. I have training in case anything goes wrong, I won't go down without a fight.

Then I start my descend and the muffled voices keep getting louder and whatever noise I heard before is also a lot louder.

I feel a tap on my shoulder and immediately I grab it and try to throw the culprit down the flight of stairs, but whoever it is has also got me and now we're both locked together and off we go shrieking all the way, Kat.

"Tanya!" I hear her voice yell as we land in the darkness.

"Sorry Kat." I say as I get up and try to get my eyes to adjust to the darkness. "Do you hear that?" I ask her as she also gets up and dusts herself off.

"No, what?"

"That, be quiet."

We listen for a while and we follow the noise as best we can in the darkness. We come to a stop when a wall comes between us and the noise.

Both of us feel our way around the wall, but find nothing, we step on something and somehow the wall turns and we go along with it.

The room where we find ourselves isn't a place I've seen anywhere in Tommy's house so I immediately start freaking out.

"Kat, what is this place?"

"I don't know, I've never been here."

The room is big, and has a few consoles here and there and there's more technology here then I've seen in a long time.

"How did we even end up here? Did we trigger something?" I ask her.

"I don't know, I heard voices at the same time we turned." She informs me and sure enough at that moment we heard the turn of the wall and in comes Kira and Tommy.

"Guys, what's going on?" Kat asks as she looks over at them, they seem pretty tense and nervous.

"What is this place?" I ask Tommy who walks towards us and pushes some buttons here and there.

"I know that Zordon told us to go and live our lives because our days as rangers were over and that others would take our places and we wouldn't have to worry about anything." Tommy begins, immediately for some odd reason I know Kira is involved she's sitting down and looking at us and holding her wrist.

"But, who tells us what to do, where to go and how to live our lives. When Zordon died, I thought for sure we would never have to deal with any malice or threat to the earth and for a year it seemed that way, until I began to discover that there were other threats to the Earth that Zordon didn't know about or maybe he chose not to tell us. So, I along with another ranger investigated that there was a major attack coming to the earth by the means of Serpentera."

"Wait, what?" Kat and I ask at the same time.

"The thing managed to be buried in the moon for that period of time, me along with a group of others managed to stop it before it got to earth, and from then on I began to monitor the earth. I mean I had been keeping tabs on the rangers that took over for us, but I got too involved that I know of almost every ranger team after us, which brings us to here. I built this years ago and just over a year ago recruited three rangers to help me stop another menace. Kira here is one of them."

I look over to where she's sitting and I know that thing that I felt, that she had, has just been revealed to me. She's not just a nobody, she's a ranger.

"Yeah, Dr. O recruited me and the boys and we began to fight Mesogog."

"Mesogog?" Kat asks.

"The guy who weirdly enough wasn't trying to take over the earth, but instead trying to revert it back to the dinosaur age."

"But, why did you get involved? I mean I know everyone had secrets but you kept me in the dark for so long about all this." Kat begins, I feel the tension between her and Tommy and I know there'll be a fight later or something along those lines and I quickly try to change the subject.

"So, Tommy what colors did you get for your rangers, and I think I can guess which one are you?" I direct myself to Kira and she immediately smiles and says something amazing to me that I haven't heard in a long time.

"I was yellow and I had looked up to all of you guys, but mostly you since you are also a yellow ranger. When I met you I couldn't believe it and then you offered me the chance of a lifetime and I know that I wanted to please you and I hope you're not mad or anything."

"No, why would I, once a ranger always a ranger and we yellow rangers stick together."
