Two weeks later…
It has been two weeks since the Rangers have decided to give Tiffany some time and space but still whenever they talked to her or was around her she would say pretty much the same thing she did to Hunter. Jason wasn't having any luck either. Tiffany would always act coldly towards him or ignore him in general.
If that wasn't problems enough for the Power Rangers they had to deal with an attack from the Shadow Ranger every day. The Rangers just had gotten back to Ninja Ops from an attack from the Black Ranger to which they lost horribly.
"I'm so sick of this! It's the same every day! The Black Ranger comes and we attack but they dodge and start attacking us. We then get smoked and we are on the ground and then next thing we know that Dark Blaster comes and hits us causing us to lose our morph! The town is also getting destroyed from all this constant fighting!" said an angry Hunter.
"We know. We were there too." Said Blake.
"Is it even possible to have bruises on your bruise and cuts on your cuts?" asked Dustin looking at his arms and legs.
"If it wasn't before I think it is now and were all proof to that." Said Shane doing the same.
"Any luck on finding out who the Shadow Ranger might be Cam?" asked Tori
"I'm sorry but there's nothing. I've tried everything I could think of and can't find a match or data or anything." Replied Cam
"Rangers, you must keep up what you are doing for now but remember keep up your guard." Said Sensei. They nodded and started heading out of Ninja Ops.
Jason was walking fast paced out of the super market entrance with a bag in his hand but not paying attention to anybody around him. He was too busy thinking.
'Maybe it was a bad idea moving here. Ever since we moved here Tiffany has been acting strange… Maybe it would have been better to just have stayed in Angel Grove. Especially since that Shadow Ranger is around now.' Thought Jason.
He was too busy thinking all this that he bumped into the guy in front of him.
"Sorry! Are you okay? I wasn't paying attention to where I was going." Said Jason making sure the guy was alright.
"Yeah I'm… Jason?" asked the man looking at Jason with surprise.
"How do you know my… wait…? Tommy! I forgot you got rid of the long hair!" said Jason giving Tommy a hug then looking at Tommy's now spiked hair.
"You saw me like a year or two ago with short hair." Said Tommy looking at Jason.
"I kind of forgot. You know a bunch of people think you're dead." Said Jason whispering the last part.
"I kind of got into some trouble so I couldn't really tell anyone I was alive and where I was." Said Tommy now whispering too.
"How 'bout you come over so we can catch up on some stuff." Said Jason thinking of Tiffany and how he could tell him.
"Sure. That sounds good." Said Tommy
"I'll follow you with my car?" asked Tommy. Jason nodded and soon both were headed toward his place.
'I wonder how he is going to react to having a daughter. And I wonder if Tiffany is going to act normal for at least today.' Thought Jason while driving.
When they reached Jason's place they both got out of their cars. (Tommy from his Black Jeep) They both headed toward the door and Jason was about to open it, when it slammed open revealing Tiffany wearing a black shirt, jean shorts, and her black converse. Tiffany pushed Jason out of the way and was about to start walking across the lawn when Jason grabbed her arm. Tommy was surprised to see someone even was living with Jason.
'I wonder who that is?' thought Tommy.
"Where are you going?" asked Jason.
"Out." Replied Tiffany with coldness in her voice but Jason being used to it by now ignored it but Tommy looked at the girl in shock. She didn't even care that someone was with Jason and talked that way to him.
Tiffany then pulled her arm from Jason's grip and started heading across the yard and turned so the side of the house was covering her.
"Wait!" Jason yelled now running after her with a very confused Tommy following behind him. When they turned to the side of the house they saw Tiffany. Jason then saw she was standing in some way getting ready for something and then Jason and Tommy saw it right then and there. If they came a couple seconds before they would have been confused but they weren't.
"Shadow Storm! Ranger Form! HA!" yelled Tiffany and before their eyes Tiffany changed into the Black Shadow Ranger.
"That's the Black Ranger…" said a surprised Tommy
"No way… Tiffany…" said Jason with disbelief.
Tiffany now noticed that they were behind her and turned around and her mask slid down revealing her face. But her eyes were black now making Jason look even more surprised and looking at her and Tommy thinking back to when Tommy had the green eyes. Tommy was thinking along similar lines.
"So you found out then about me being the Black Shadow Ranger. Oh, well it was only a matter of time and it was getting extremely annoying to hide it from you." Said Tiffany talking to Jason.
"Tiffany, stop! You don't have to do this!" said a sad Jason
"Let us help you." Said Tommy feeling like he should say something.
Tiffany now took full notice of the man next to her uncle. He looked familiar… like she seen him before.
'Maybe I saw him in a picture of something when Lother showed me some of the other power rangers. It would make since, since he seems to be friends with Jason.' Thought Tiffany.
(A/N: Tiffany found out about Jason being the Red Ranger when she was with Lother)
"Lother is my Lord and I must destroy the Power Rangers and anyone else that may get in his way. I don't need help." Said Tiffany and she teleported away.
"No! Tiffany!" said Jason running to the spot she was in moments before and trying to grab her but missing. Jason then started heading toward the house to go inside while mumbling things under his breath. He couldn't believe it. Tiffany? The evil Black Ranger? Before he knew it he was already in the house with Tommy behind him closing the door.
"Jason what is going on? Who was that? How is she a Power Ranger?" exclaimed an extremely confused Tommy.
Jason was now in the living room sitting on the couch when Tommy took the seat right beside him. Jason had his head in his hands and was think back to seeing Tiffany's black eyes and dark expression. He then turned the T.V. on to one of the main news channels waiting for when Tiffany would attack. He never would have expected this. And it had to happen when Tommy came. Tommy was waiting impatiently next to Jason.
"Jason what is..." started to repeat Tommy but Jason cut him off.
"Her name is Tiffany and for the other two questions… I don't know. She has been acting weird since we moved here but I never even thought she would be an evil ranger. I thought she was just mad about moving here from Angel Grove along with everything else that has happened. Man if Kim found out she would be so mad..." said Jason rambling on and staring right into the T.V. screen waiting a report to happen.
Tommy attention was immediately more caught when Jason mentioned Kim.
"Kim? What does she have to do with this?" asked Tommy.
Jason swore to himself for rambling like that but it was true. Kim never wanted Tiffany involved with Ranger business that's why she never told her about her and him being rangers.
"Tommy…Tiffany, she's Kim's daughter…" said Jason looking away from the screen and at Tommy.
Tommy was shocked to say the least. He had millions of thoughts going on through out his head.
"Her daughter! She looked about 16! Who's the father? And if she's her daughter where's Kim if Tiffany was here?" asked Tommy.
"Look… There's a lot of stuff that has to be explained and I never thought it would be like this. It kind of a lot to take in Tommy but… your her father." Said Jason.
Tommy looked shocked to say the least he had a blank look on his face while just looking at Jason like he wanted Jason to be joking.
"I'm the father…?" asked Tommy looking at Jason. Jason shook his head.
"Why didn't Kim ever tell me! Where is Kim so I can talk to her!" said an angered Tommy.
"Tommy… Kim's dead." Said Jason now looking away for Tommy.
"She's dead..." Asked Tommy now showing sadness covering his face.
"Yeah...about a year back pretty much right after the Forever Red mission, Kim and Tiffany got into a car accident in Angel Grove. A drunk driver had hit their car. Tiffany was ok. She only had a couple of scraps and bruises with a concussion. Kim though… she was in worse shape and didn't make it. Everyone from the old team tried to contact you but we had no idea where you were and no means of contacting you." Said Jason.
"I'm sorry I couldn't be there Jase…" said Tommy with sincerity.
"Yeah… I know you would have if you could." Said Jason.
"Why didn't Kim ever tell me? Why didn't you ever tell me! By the looks of it you always knew!" Said Tommy starting to get angry again.
"Tommy at the time you were still a Ranger and Kim thought it would be better for you to help the world rather than help her. The letter she sent to you. It was a fake so you wouldn't come visit her or anything since the Rangers and the world needed you more. She then didn't tell you after you were a Ranger because she was afraid of what you would say. She thought you would be angry with her. So she decided it would be better to not tell you in general. I was the only one of the past Rangers to know since I kept in contact with her and found out when I went to surprise her. She then swore for me not tell you. The others know about Tiffany now since they met her last year at the funeral. I really wanted to tell you Tommy but it was Kim's decision. I know you deserved to know and it was wrong that I didn't tell you." Finished Jason.
"I guess its ok for now. Right now we have to focus on what we're going to do about Tiffany" said Tommy trying to keep any anger he has at Jason at the moment away for now.
"Right" replied Jason
"So what should we…" Tommy was interrupted by the T.V. alerting of a news cast. Tommy and Jason both pulled their full attention to the T.V. It showed the scene of the Wind and Thunder Rangers against the Shadow Ranger (aka Tiffany). Tiffany was crushing the other rangers as usual but it seemed like she was showing more force or something today. Even when the rangers would fall to the ground and seemed done for the moment, Tiffany would still full on attack them.
"Tiffany…" whispered Jason still not getting over the shock and hoping it was just all some horrible nightmare. That he would wake up and Tiffany would be telling him she has a soccer game soon. That he would wake up and Kim would still be here even though none of which would happen.
Tommy cringed a little seeing the Black Ranger… no Tiffany, fighting the other rangers. Even if he might have just found out about Tiffany, it was still hard seeing his own flesh and blood fighting the other rangers like he did years before.
Jason and Tommy's minds went completely blank with now watching the fight between the rangers. Wincing ever so often having seen pretty bad things like when the blue ranger got completely slammed into the brick wall of a building or the yellow ranger getting thrown high up into the air, slashed a couple of times and then slamming right into the ground.
The next thing Tommy and Jason knew, they were staring at the screen looking flabbergasted. There was no possible way that she could have that. That it would be in anyway… They were staring right at what she was holding but the next thing they knew the screen with blank having lost the signal. Telling them that the ranger most likely lost morph and their person for tech and stuff covered it up.
"Jason! Do you have your morpher still from when you used it from the Forever Red mission?" asked a nervous Tommy jumping off the couch and slowly but quickly heading to the door while still looking at Jason.
"Yeah I do. Tommy you're not thinking.." said Jason trailing off.
"It's the only way! You saw what Tiffany had with her! The other Rangers need our help or else they will be in even more life threatening danger! This may help get Tiffany back too." Yelled Tommy now by the door.
"All right let's do it! Let me grab it!" yelled Jason jumping up from the couch and running upstairs to his room.
"I'm going to go grab mine!" replied Tommy running towards his car to retrieve his.
The Wind and Thunder Rangers were now on the ground demorphed and wincing in pain. They had no strength what so ever to get up. The only thing they could do was look at one another and look at the Shadow Ranger fearfully and what was in their hands. The didn't even have enough strength to say anything. They only could lie there helplessly with all them thinking they had failed.
"It's time I finished this. With my new toy my Lord gave me. It's the Sword of Darkness" said the Shadow Ranger doing some slashes in the air with it.
The Shadow Ranger used her powers to use on the demorphed rangers shadows to hold them down to make sure they didn't get away. Now the rangers were tied with their dark shadows around them like it was almost a cocoon.
The Black Ranger was about to run and hit the rangers with the Sword of Darkness to finish them off but before she got close enough she saw two red blurs coming at her. The Black Ranger dodged a punch that was aimed. She then barely blocked an attack aimed at her chest which pushed her back farther way from the others.
The Black Ranger looked back and saw two new red rangers standing in front of the others. But she reminded herself that they weren't really new. She had learned about them from the history of rangers to use some of older moves possibly against these rangers. It seemed like they were blocking her from getting to the rangers that were still on the ground.
Shane, Tori, Dustin, Hunter, and Blake were confused why they haven't gotten hit yet with the sword the Black Ranger called The Sword of Darkness. They had shut their eyes in panic since they saw the Black Ranger about to run right at them. When they opened their eyes and saw two red rangers in front of them, of course they were shocked but the only who had another emotion in him was Dustin.
"Guys! That the Red Mighty Morphin Ranger and the Red Zeo Ranger! They are from some older ranger teams!" exclaimed an excited Dustin. Finding new strength to talk since he is now looking at Rangers from the past right in front of him. His inner fan person was freaking out a little.
The others now looked at the Ranger with awe just like Dustin. With now finding new hope looking at them. If they are from older ranger teams then surely they could help them out with this ranger that's has been giving them trouble for the past 2 weeks.
The Black Ranger looked at the two red rangers and the others. The rangers who were on the ground seemed to have recovered or found some sort of strength for them to sit up or kneel. They were slowly but efficiently making progress with fully getting up. She decided she should probably deal with all of the rangers later being slightly tired and having to think more clearly of a plan with now these two rangers.
"I'll be back Rangers, but next time you better be prepared for your doom. You two as well." Said the Black Ranger talking about the red rangers. She the ended with a laugh and then transported away.
"No!" exclaimed the Red Zeo Ranger
"Tiffany!" yelled the Red Mighty Morphin Ranger
"Tiffany?" questioned a slightly wobbly but now standing Tori to the one that yelled the name out.
"You don't mean Tiffany Oliver? That girl that had just moved here?" asked Blake having heard what the Red Ranger said also and also hearing what Tori asked. He was now standing alongside Tori
"No way…" said Hunter standing up.
"Really?" asked Dustin holding onto Hunter's shoulder since getting slammed in the ground hit him pretty badly. He could stand but only with help.
"If you guys think about it kind of makes sense since she acted from the first time we met her to the next time." Said Shane thoughtfully and trying to help Hunter with Dustin too.
"But, that doesn't explain why you knew that was Tiffany and how you knew it. You have some explaining to do." Continued Shane directing it at the two red rangers who backs were still turned on them looking at were Tiffany was transported two minutes before.
The two red rangers finally turned and faced the newbie rangers and noticed how badly they looked up close with all their injuries and with some injuries that seemed to be from previous battles. The two red rangers looked at each other briefly then nodded thinking the same thing.
"We will tell you what we know but I think we should do it somewhere safer." Said the Red Zeo Ranger.
"You guys also need to treat your injuries." Added the Red Mighty Morphin Ranger.
The injured agreed with each other that if these were previous power rangers and just safed them, they seemed safe. It also seemed like they needed a little help to there so the rangers gave directions to Ninja Ops to the two red rangers and they hoped Sensei and Cam would understand.
"You guys are ok!" said Cam running but stopping short to see the two red rangers.
"You guys brought them here! Hasn't what happened with Blake…" started Cam but was interrupted by Sensei.
"It's all right Cam. They have proven themselves by helping the others. Thank you." Sensei said directing the last part to the two red rangers. They nodded back acknowledging him but they then whispered to one another while Cam started taking care of the other rangers.
"Did I hit my head or do you see a talking guinea pig too?" asked the Mighty Morphin.
"Yeah I do. Do you…" The Zeo ranger said but stopped noticing the other rangers were now sitting and everyone was looking at them.
"I think it be best if we introduce ourselves. I'll go first. I'm Cam Watanabe and that's my father." Cam said pointing to Sensei which confused the two rangers greatly.
"It's a long story." Replied Hunter noticing their confusion.
"I'm Shane Clarke, The Red Wind Ranger."
"I'm Dustin Brooks, The Yellow Wind Ranger and it really awesome being able to meet you guys."
"I'm Tori Hanson, The Blue Wind Ranger." Tori finished for the Wind Rangers. The attention then turned onto the Thunder Rangers.
"I'm Hunter Bradley, The Crimson Thunder Ranger."
"I'm Blake Bradley, The Navy Thunder Ranger." Blake finished for the Thunder's. All full attention was now turned back to the two red rangers standing in front of them.
They both turned to one another and nodded. There was then a flash and they had demorphed.
"I'm Jason Lee Scott, The Red Mighty Morphin Power Ranger." Said Jason
"I'm Tommy Oliver, Red Zeo Ranger." Said Tommy
"Also the Green Mighty Morphin, White Mighty Morphin, White Ninja Ranger, and Red Turbo Ranger." Mumbled Jason jokingly but everyone had heard him. Tommy then hit his arm causing Jason to glare at him.
"Geez I was just telling them. Not my fault you are pretty much every color of the rainbow." Mumbled Jason.
"Oliver? Are you related to Tiffany?" questioned Tori curiously.
"I'm actually her father… its kind of a long story." Said Tommy
"Well right now we have time and we need to know what you know if it is going to help us at all." Said Shane to the pair of them.
"All right. Well I guess it started out when we moved here…"Jason started telling from when they first moved here. How on the first day she went out and didn't come back till much later. She started acting coldly to him since then and acted strange. How then he met Tommy today and all of what had happened earlier before they had arrived to safe them.
"So you just found out Tiffany was your daughter today and that she was the evil Black Ranger. Man talk about one crazy day." Said Dustin to Tommy.
"Dustin!" yelled Tori hitting him slightly.
"What?" questioned Dustin. The other Rangers just shook their heads at him.
"So you know about the Sword of Darkness?" asked Cam at Tommy and Jason.
"Yeah it's what our villain, Rita, gave…" Jason was about to finished but interrupted by Tommy.
"Me. I was the first Evil Power Ranger which I'm not proud of. Whatever spell or whatever it is on Tiffany, he is now using the sword to keep her the way she is since it is probably weakening is what I would guess." Said Tommy.
"So what you're saying is if we destroy the sword it means Tiffany will be back to normal." Asked Shane working out what Tommy said.
"Yes. There's a very high chance it will work." Said Tommy
"Rangers I want you to be very careful and be prepared for must be done." Said Sensei
"Will you guys help us? We can't get even one hit on her. We managed a few here and there but never powerful enough. You guys today were able to pretty much kick her when you teamed up." Questioned Hunter
"Of course. This involves me and Jason now." Said Tommy directing it towards all the Rangers.
"I just want to know one thing. How did Lother get his hands on the Sword of Darkness if I destroyed when Tommy was evil." Said Jason.
"I believe I may know the answer to that." Said Sensei. Everyone turned their attention to him.
"Lother had heard a rumor at one point that there was a powerful sword but that it got destroyed by some Power Rangers. I then believe that he soon heard of a rumor of their was a duplicate sword that the Green Mutant Power Ranger had." Said Sensei
"The Green Mutant Power Ranger did have a copy of it but it got destroyed when he got destroyed." Said Tommy
"I think Lother may have found out that the duplicate sword got taken away before it got destroyed and put somewhere where it wouldn't get destroyed. I believe Lother found out where it was and took it and now is using it on Tiffany." Finished Sensei.
"I can't believe there's a dumb duplicate of the original sword. I thought I was past this Sword of Darkness stuff." Mumbled Jason to Tommy. Tommy nodded at him thinking the same thing.
"I guess all we can do is now to wait for her to show up next." Said Hunter. Everyone agreed. While the hurt rangers were getting treated Tommy and Jason tried to help them or Cam in any way possible.
"You failed me!" yelled Lother from his throne.
"I'm sorry my lord, I would have had those dumb rangers destroyed if two more came." Said Tiffany, kneeling in front of him.
"Two more rangers?" asked Lother calming down a little bit.
"Yes. The Red Might Morphin Ranger and The Red Zeo Ranger." Said Tiffany standing now.
"I'm giving you another chance but this time, destroy the other two as well. Also, Zurgane will help you as well.
"But-"Tiffany stopped what she was going to say from the glare Lother gave her. "Yes my lord." She said.
'I could destroy the power rangers without any help but I guess I will have to deal with Zurgane for now.' Thought Tiffany
