Chapter 8: Green Ranger Ethics and the Ninjetti Six Connection
"So starting from the fact that we just gained our powers and learning we were to late to make it in time at the time. Along with it here, is that an act of love is just as strong, so heart, love and believing in yourself are the meaning of the song now." she said and Tanya nodded. "Alright girls, before we go into that we better take a break, we got plenty of time to make that music video." Kat said smiling and they nodded as Aisha smiled.
"Alright good idea, that just tightens the bonds between us now, alright on the count of three." Aisha said to her and she nodded. "One, two, three!" Kim shouted and they thrust fists together as a bright flash of fireworks in pink, purple, yellow and gold appeared. "Whoa, that just makes it more clear now that we're a singled unified front. Alright time to check it at full power now, ready." Jason asked and they nodded to that "Alright altogether now." Tommy said to them and they all nodded in agreement
"One" Jason said and she took the next number. "Two" She said and the three of them said it together. "Three!" they shouted together and they all thrust their fists together and a blast of fire works exploded out of their circle and they grinned at the reaction then as she smiled. "Alright that just makes it even more clear guys, we're a single unified unit now, Tommy." she said and he nodded in agreement to that
"Yeah you're right about that beautiful, us as the Ninjetti nine." he said and she gripped his sweater as she smiled at him. "I'm never letting you go Tommy, so with that you're back to being the man I know now. The you I remember, our first three years together after you came into my life." she said smiling and he nodded in agreement to that. "Yeah I'm back and anyone wants to mess with me, where you're concerned now."
"They'd better get out of town now, because my green ranger self is back once again. To me, they want to screw with you, they'd better get a good doctor, because I am going to put them in the emergency room for even touching you like that now. As for your reputation regarding making this choice, they want to screw with it, I'm making it clear, they even hurt you and I will come after then now to protect it and you."
"You're my crane, my angel, and I'm not losing you without a fight beautiful, Zedd just triggered a ticking time bomb now that your powers are this weak, unti we get you back at full power. I'm watching your back now starting now, but if this situation regarding them is just getting started, they're asking for it starting now. If this results in a repeated issue of last year's story arc regarding you and Kat." he told her and she nodded to him as she answered him.
"If it does, I have you protecting me now Tommy, we always were together in training and doing the battles. Remember, you gave up your original powers for me by draining all of it and you returned to me even stronger than ever, as your new color. But the song gave every bit of it, fight for me, offer me your strength, take the shot for me and you nearly risked killing yourself at the time. You're still you, but like you told me, just because you don't have powers, it doesn't mean you're not still a power ranger."
"It's not the powers that makes us Rangers, it's the heart, we can still do good and protect earth, Angel Grove and our team as plain old us, and aside from that. And I just figured out his final lesson to us now guys: so long as we have our communicators, our animal spirits and our medallions, we stay Rangers forever. The bonds of being a team are still with us and with it is, as Ninjetti, the key link between us now."
"So long as we continue to wear our communicators we're not retired, we can still act as power rangers, though not in uniform at the current moment, we're still active. That's what he was trying to tell us. So long as we continue wearing our communicators, we stay Rangers forever. We just enforce that by creating a way to stay linked in both ways, but our communicators, we're still active now." she said and he nodded, smiling, to her.
"So long as we wear our communicators, we're Rangers forever, the four of us aren't retired at all, we can still go into battle, we can work as a single team. We just swap places with the quartet in every scrimmage so we get a turn and by the time our back up power coins are ready, we're back on the job now!" Jason said smiling and she nodded. "It's not just that Jason, to maintain the unity of the team we have to stick together."
"I'm the center of the nine of us, but I'm the omega, you and Tommy are alphas and together we lead the entire team now. But it turns into even dozen and we are going to have to work this out. But either way, we work as one, we win every battle." she said and he nodded as Tommy finished her remark. "At odds with each other and it tears the team apart, so to prevent that, we, the nine of us, are always together starting now."
"But with us choosing this choice together, our team is intact and I'm back to being me again. The me you you know is back once again, because she and I are back together, we see each other every day and our team as a single solidified unit is in place. And with those words in mind now: Zedd, Rita, Mondo, watch out now, so if I were you guys I'd stay out of my way now you three." he said, looking up and she smiled dangerously.
"Yeah, my boyfriend's back alright. The green ranger is back and you're going to get it now so watch out you three nobody messes with our friends, you mess with us, you're getting burned now. And with that in mind, well if Anderson's not giving up he'd better watch out, because as your green ranger self again, you're going to come after him baby." she said and he started laughing at that and nodded in agreement to that.
"Yep, he's been spreading lies that you were untrue to me and I'm coming after him for that. I'm back to being me again, the me you know and with that, to turn my life around and today is the day, am I'm the kind of guy who means what I say?, bet on it!" he said smiling and she pulled him into a hug and kissed him and he pressed his forehead to hers. "You're mine baby, I'm never letting you go." she said and he smiled at her softly.
"We're on phase one, but it doesn't matter to me beautiful, we still act like we're together when you come to see us. But starting now, I'm acting as my green ranger self again in the field, before and after you broke the spell on me and with that. Whoever even thinks of touching you better watch it, because that me just made a come back now. Dragon is awake, so you want to lose a limb, Anderson, just try it now."
"They want to push me, they'd better watch out, your powers are low, but with three more added to the team again, we got enough to make sure you don't lay yourself out anymore. As for the letter it's a fake, so no changing the fact that we chose this together, that you never broke up with me and there's no changing the circumstances now. The good Green ranger me is back and he's out to do a lot of damage here."
"And with those words in mind, in mind here, you, Zedd, you touch her again and you're getting barbecued this time. As for you Anderson, you ever touch her like that you better get out of town, because I'm coming after you." he said and she nodded to him as the duo exchanged grins. "No phase one, borderline two, us together like always, us acting like a couple, and everyone can see that we're still together." she said to him smiling.
"Right after I returned to the team and before I changed colors, that's phase one, borderline two. Yes I get what you're saying baby, we go back to that once again, and as the months go by the connection keeps getting deeper, as I return to that me again. Jason and I are about to have a role reversal regarding this and together things come full circle as it returns to the very beginning once you come home next spring."
"We did that before I switched colors, our parents saw it all and your mother was thrilled you found me as your other half at the time. Alright stage one, borderline two and we act like we did then, me always at your side, protecting you, always there for you when you needed me at the time. It doesn't matter we took a step back, I belong to you and only you and vice versa." he said and she nodded as she pulled him into a hug smiling.
"Kim, I know we're cooling things down for now right now, but I've been wanting to ask this since before you left, would you do me the honor of becoming my wife." he asked and she smiled and hugged him. "Yes, yes, I will, I do, I love you with all my heart, I do." she said and smiled as he tightened his arms around her as he pulled something from his back pocket as he opened it as he said it to her smiling gently.
"I had this made for you a few weeks ago, and I was trying to figure out when it was the best time and it is now, but this is my promise to you, beautiful." he said as he put around her neck and she looked at it to see their initials between a crane and falcon and smiled as she hugged him again. "Well that just makes it official now, the letter was a lie, nothing changes, nothing's ever going to change." Rocky said with a delighted smile.
"We see the declaration they made to each other, we see the marriage proposal and we all know the truth, and though the duo and I can't control what we're saying, it doesn't matter. We know and we're with you all the way guys, it's between you only and it's private, we understand, whatever you choose in your relationship is no business of ours now." Kat added and the sextet all nodded in agreement as Kim turned to her then.
"Girls, I'm just choosing positions here, but first, second and third, in a wolf pack you're matched up to the boys right now, guys. But first is beta, second is alpha's third, and third is secondary beta. While Trini and Zack shoved themselves to fourth and fifth now, by refusing to come home when the duo and I did, you made you choice now." she said and the trio nodded as they went into a four way hug at that as she went further.
"Yeah we made our choice and we choose both of you, you brought us together, you're the heart of the team. Our best friend and sister, and nothing's changed and nothing's ever going to change. You're our entire world and we're not letting go now, we made our choice and it's not choosing sides but both side." Rocky said for the seven of them as she looked from her new quartet to the quintet gently as she said it to them.
"Guys I think you know what I'm really trying to say here now, regarding Jared, because he was hitting on me, before Tommy came home and with that though I had the trio, Tommy is my boyfriend. But as of this moment with Dragon gaining power now, get ready, he's going for the barbecue, if Jared pushes him too far regarding me, during our visits home." Kim said and they nodded, smiling as Aisha started laughing at that.
"Uh oh, my boyfriends back and you're going to be in trouble." Aisha said smiling and she nodded in agreement to that. "Yeah exactly, him at that stage is one thing, you saw him once he'd been a ranger for eighteen months. But him when we met, that's different, his green ranger self was someone no boy ever wanted to mess with as to why that is exactly right now, it's because he's got the tough guy demeanor to him."
"Him going alpha male is big thing regarding me, and that punchline becomes clear here, but you mess with him regarding me and you're playing with fire and you're going to get burned here. Though considering his original animal is a dragon that goes without saying here, but that's what I loved about him, once we got together, his strength became mine and vice versa, but the island of Illusion shows that, he helped me and I helped him."
"But that's what the song really meant, the line, 'But there's more to life when we listen to our heart. And because of you, I have the strength to start', this is what we mean by that, the heart was we were each other's other half, we gave each other the strength to fight it out. That's the pep talk I needed after Ivan stripped us of our powers, I was on the edge of giving up, and he gave me the strength to keep going here."
"Prior to that was not long after he joined the team and we have to face our fears and insecurities and we were facing insecurities regarding what was coming because we just suffered something beyond traumatizing now. And without our communicators, our morphers and our power coins we were stuck and we had no way off the island, which was scaring the six of us out of our minds at the time."
"My biggest fear, once I saw the illusion of the duo being nice was that Rita could do anything and we'd be unable to deal with her. But with his being my strength and vice versa we had the strength to save ourselves in that situation. By reminding each other of memories we wanted to forget, mine was the terror toad and I was the only one who could defeat him, by having the weapon that did it. Him, having to fight it out alone was a weakness that I had to help him deal with, but we became each other's strength."
"For me, I didn't want to remember this because it dragged up the memory of the duo and them harassing me and combined with that. In truth, was the thought if she could turn into what they are like now, as cops and gentleman than she could do anything. Just realizing I had him now and it brought back the strength to fight, because the quintet were now my lifeline and he was acting as my boyfriend now at the time."
"His gentle pep talk and words were enough to snap me out of it and I broke the spell she put on me. Him, he'd grown up a loner without any true friends and as a result five months together as a true sextet was enough to cause the fear of fighting it out alone after she kidnapped him and by then she was out to get rid of him. Every time we called for him, he knew I needed him and we started acting like a couple after this."
"It took doing it in reverse that saved him, but that's what that line meant now, there's more to life when we listen to our other half. And because of it we have the strength to start fighting back." she said and the quintet nodded as he looked at her smiling. "Though the quartet mattered to me, you meant even more and I wasn't giving you up or losing now. You were scared to face this alone and I can understand why."
"But just having me acting as your boyfriend was enough you had the strength not to give up and quit. But you're right, I'd grown used to being in a sextet now, that having to fight it out alone scared me, but you helped me, because your strength and love reminded me that I can't give up. Because everything I do and did as a ranger I do it for you and I'd do anything just to keep from losing, but I'd never cross that line." he said smiling and she smiled back at him as she rested her head against his shoulder.
"And when he goes green ranger, you better get out of his way now, you've seen him when he was working in his kido girls, but you should see him and Jason when they're sparring and wearing his original color and gear. He's amazing, in fact I saw him at the expo the day he and Jason went into a tie against each other and he came to my aid regarding Bulk and Skull, but that just made it clear here, he's who I was looking for."
"Shalimar, Fire and I found our mates, and to him he was protecting us no matter what as to that. Jared Anderson crossed the one man he shouldn't have, because that spell Rita put on him had lasting effects. So every time he loses his temper his eyes start glowing green so with that in mind. Jared tries anything, Dragon is going to throw him right through the wall next." she added and the trio nodded, bemused, as Adam smiled.
"Is this what you guys were like together when he was still the green ranger?" he asked her and she nodded as she leaned her head against Tommy's shoulder and Jason smiled at that as he wrapped an arm around her smiling gently as she pressed her head into his shoulder and neck. "Yeah I remember, I had to get you to remember that just to save yourself, because I didn't want to lose you baby." he said, pulling her close to him.
"And to answer your question, yeah we were, she understands me in a way not many can, but it's because of our soul bond. The island of Illusion was a memory that helped us get us through our right of passage at the time back then, I used to be a loner till I met them and I'm now in a sextet now. At the time when I lost my green ranger powers, she came to check on me and I was planning on asking her to the dance at the time."
"But that was the beginning for us, she agreed and from then on that was it, I did anything I could to make her happy at the time. Back to the very beginning, but it's stage one, borderline two for us, the best of friends and borderline couple, so once I came home as the white ranger it shifted to stage two permanently. And we've been together ever since, at the time just before we did I went out of town on fall break, just before Halloween that year and our relationship was growing deeper every day."
"But just before I switched colors and I'd been retired as the green for maybe two weeks then, before Zordon grabbed me to prevent Zedd from getting his hands on me and turning me back to the darkside. So I was staying a power ranger and this was a surprise for her, he knew she loved me and he decided that I was going to remain as a member of the team. You saw us in the first two months of our lives as a couple guys, Sha'."
"As you know I was determined to keep from losing her, but everything the Bryan Adams song declared I've showed. I gave up every ounce of my green ranger powers for her and the quartet. It was after after fighting a monster that my dreams of losing my powers started and it switched to Zedd trying to get rid of me finally like Rita was doing. But that's why Jason, my counterpart, had gotten his own theme song now."
"Because as the sixth ranger I was to become the leader of the team, and as the leader, it's my job to take care of you guys and keep our team together. The fight between me and Draco was the symbol of that when we finally told you that truth. But this is me after I returned to the team as the green ranger and just before I became the white ranger, which is why the guys are so happy we chose this, they know what I mean to her."
"She was happy for the first time in five years and it's because of Ken being a deadbeat dad, that I decided I was doing anything I could to make her happy now. Her float being the first and from there, just being her mate as someone she'd be able to confide in now. Her feelings regarding her powers are everything I felt, but she's a female version of me when I was at my weakest stage and we had to recharge my power coin repeatedly."
"So with those words in mind regarding her powers there's only three who can understand this because they saw it twice with me: her, Billy and Jason. I just switched positions with her, but that sums it up. Though now with her being halfway completely human again and Anderson on the prowl, he even touches her like that and I'm going to break his neck." he said firmly and the quintet nodded gently as they got it.
"Though now that we made this choice together, it's though a step back we still act as you remember us when I'm home every day guys. So you get to see us at the very beginning yourselves now. And if we're at the lockers in between classes and Anderson drops by. Well just get ready for the reaction, because he's going green ranger to scare him off now." she added as she pressed the back of her head against Tommy's shoulder.
"Tommy when I come home to visit, it's best we keep it at stage three, to make it clear that I'm off limits in your eyes, and I still belong to you, so to us and our friends, we're stage one borderline two, to him, it's right to stage three now." she said and he nodded in agreement. "Agreed and I'm back as the good green ranger, so he wants to die, because he touched you like that, he'd better clear the room when I'm right there."
"Because he so much as touches you like that I'm landing him in the hospital, before dad hauls his ass up on charges for sexual harassment or worse here. And mom is going to agree when I say this, but he's exactly the kind of guy she'd blast than have you be dating right now, and she approves of me." he said and she nodded as the quartet tried to keep from laughing at the remark as Adam said it for the four of them.
"I see trouble coming your way Anderson, so watch yourself." Adam said and Jason smiled. "Uh oh, yeah I see where that's going and with that, you just got the one person you shouldn't have pissed at you Anderson. So if I was you, you better get out of town or when he's around get out of the room and quick, before he knocks you senseless now." Jason said as he tried to keep from laughing as the trio tried to keep from laughing.
As Aisha got them started as they did the opening lyrics of that song. "He left and you hung around, and bothered me every day, and when I didn't go out with you. You said things that weren't very nice." Aisha said out loud, smiling dangerously and the duo grinned as the trio got started. "My boyfriend's back and you're going to be in trouble." Kat sang out and the quintet started laughing at that as they listened to them as Tanya did the next verse as the girls smiled at each other.
"You see him coming, you better cut out on the double." Tanya added, smiling to them as Jason smiled at the duo playfully then. "You've been spreading lies, that I was untrue." Kat sang and Tanya did the rest. "So look out now, because he's coming after you." she sang and they did the rest together. "Hey he's knows what you been trying, and he's knows that you been lying." They sang together and Jason chuckled at that as Tommy smiled at that as Kim looked at him smiling.
"Alright girls we get the point, but I'm glad we get to see him as he was again. I'd hate to be the guys upstairs now that he's back to being himself again, because once he goes green ranger all bets are off here." Jason said laughing and Kim and Billy nodded in agreement to that remark as Kim leaned into Tommy's chest and he wrapped his arms around her smiling as the quartet smiled at that as Tommy answered him smiling.
"No kidding regarding that, but somebody's in trouble here if they push her into over doing it. The me you remember back then is back, but I'm not giving her up Jason. So with that, you all got the message regarding our duet now. And with it is I'm back as my green ranger/white ranger self again. I may be dressed in red, but I'm still me and I will protect her with my life." Tommy said and he nodded in agreement to that.
"What are the chances of Anderson crossing the line, because Skull quit finally?" Rocky asked him and he sighed. "Extremely high, he's the type our parents would kill rather than having the girls date him. As to why he's obsessed with Kimberly, because she's the most popular girl in the school. And with her taken, he's been trying to move in on her ever since Tommy was away on fall break like a month, before we met you."
"Zack and I just about beat the crap out of him for cornering her in the locker room, because the three of us were hanging around the front door and I heard the scream and I decked him for it. But it's more than that. She gave me key details regarding Bulk and Skull after he joined the team and believe me I was furious, because while we were playing basketball. Bulk got his hands on her and we both told him to let her go."
"Before we tagged teamed in knocking them out and they hit the hotdog cart when Billy and Trini went to get lunch that day." Jason said and Tommy nodded with a furious look. "Yeah I remember that and I was ready to beat the crap out of Bulk for even thinking that at the time. It took firing off my skills in rapid precision to scare them off at the time. If Zack so much as crosses the line and even drags that memory up, so help me, he's getting taken down to size later." he said and they quartet nodded in agreement.
"I take it this is something that, as girls, is something our boyfriends are going to take seriously correct?" Tanya asked and she nodded. "It's our worst nightmare regarding guys like this and especially when no means no." Kim said and the trio nodded with a furious look as Rocky answered her at that. "He ever touches you like that he won't have to worry about Tommy taking him apart, because we're going to." he said with a growl.
"I'm just glad you guys broke down that spell, you two, I could never take losing you as well, you're my brothers, I'm never letting you go." she said and their eyes softened. "You too Kimmy, we love you too." Adam said and he pulled her into a hug and tightened his arms around her and she pressed her forehead to his as their colors intertwined. "Eighteen months together and we develop the bond he gave up at the time."
"You're my entire world Kim, I'm never letting you go." Adam said to her smiling and she buried her head into his shoulder and he rested his on top of hers. "Hey it's okay, I don't care what he says, he made the choice and I promised I'd take care of you and that's what I'm going to do now. The Ninjetti are one, we take care of each other, but you're our entire world, our sister, our omega, we're never letting go." he said to her softly.
"You ever expected us to grow this close if it hadn't been for past lives guys?" she asked looking at their sextet and they shook their heads. "No, but maybe it was meant to be, we were meant to find each other, the five of us were already together. And you arrive and we're complete as a group of six at the time. 100 years later, you get sent back in time and the five of us find you and the connection gets established."
"Full circle, the five of us are looking for our omega and we find it when my grandfather saves you three from Bulk and Skull's grandfathers. That was no mistake, the six of us were meant to find each other. You and Billy were already together, I move to town like seven months into our being rangers and then eleven months later we meet the trio next and that's it as our team is complete." Tommy said to her gently and she nodded.
"Jason's my brother, but you guys are my true friends, you were there for me at my weakest points. Zack and Trini gave that up the second they left guys, you took their places completely Sha', Adam. You know what really ticks me off, that the fact that they're getting jealous that you promised them you were going to take care of me and you did that. In fact you did it so much, that the bond got recreated anew now."
"You're my team now, I'm your pink ranger, and nothing they can do can change that now, I've got the best of both worlds with Jason and Rocky sharing the position. But it's turned into a squabbling match between you guys and them, but the ones that actually give a damn of what this letter is doing to me is you guys." she said and the duo nodded gently. "We know and we're throwing that in their faces later, Kim."
"I maybe compromised briefly until you get back from Miami every day now, but nothing, including this spell, is taking you away from me now." Adam said to her gently. "I think that's the catch of being Ninjetti guys, your own kind are your closest friends, we're our own kind. I told my own kind first, before telling the duo, and it starts bouncing from us to our folks next, also own kind. Our own kind are the Ninjetti now." Kim said and they nodded in agreement as the nine exchanged looks at the news then.
"The Ninjetti are our own kind, man, if that's not telling us something nothing does, you told us first, because the five of us are with him and your godparents, but the seven of us all share a link and it's because are primaries are al linked by one thing. And that one thing is that we're our own kind and said kind is we're the Ninjetti now." Rocky said and they nodded in agreement to that remark as Jason looked at the duo smiling.
"Wait if the seven know this, you think if they had our abilities, they're our own kind as well Kim?" Kat asked and she nodded. "Yeah I do, the seven chose both of us instead of taking sides, they, like you, read the letter, they know what I'm saying and chose nothing is getting between us now. As such, I can make friendship bracelets indicating our bonds of friendship and that we're a single unified group now." She said and they nodded smiling at that remark as they exchanged grins then as Kat leaned against Jason.
"Well if you're my second in command now Kitty, I can get used to that now, but if we're matched to the duo, it's turned into us being the only ones that can prevent them going full out. But you and she need to gauge each other's powers, you're the purple Ninjetti now, she's the pink, but you have to be equally matched in this. Just like he and I are at the moment, though that's true, it's turning into a stalemate in practice."
"As to that, with Adam, Rocky, Billy and me flanking him, you three got her, and never leave her side. She's the alpha of your portion of the team, he's ours, but together we make up the entire pack, okay." Jason said and trio nodded to the orders smiling. "You remember seeing our parents going at it like this, your father quit after fifteen minutes once mom lost her temper at him." Kim said and he started laughing as he nodded.
"I take they're you as adults, huh?" Kat asked and they nodded to her. "Yeah and once mom starts going all out get out of her way, or she's going blast you right into the pool, which is why the guys fathers are afraid of her. That actually happened to Uncle Peter once when I was ten, he scared her with a Halloween costume and she was so ticked she blasted him right into the pool." she said and the quintet started laughing at that.
"I think papa lion is going to get cooked vocally if his cub crosses the line here Kim, I'm just a cub in retrospect, if we were the duo in the movie. I made a mistake and his father ordered me back to the pride, while he's letting his cub have it for that. Though this puts you back in the emergency room and he and Trini are going to get it big time by their parents later, if we're six months, before the letter does its job." Tanya said to her and she nodded in agreement to that, as she positioned herself on Jason's left.
"Wait a second, Kat on my right, Tanya on my left, if I know where this is heading next, Justin takes Kat, Zack next to Tanya and that just leaves Trini and she's between you two ladies." Jason said and they nodded. "Well if that's the case, you're the one now dressed in the shield and body armor Jason, with you wearing my old uniform later, but the girls are now preparing for when you become their leader." Tommy said and he nodded.
"Looks like the added alpha syndrome has the girls flanking me till the the duo get back and Justin gets added to the team now. Although if this is a monkey see, monkey do thing, dad's going to find it more than funny that your mothers are flanking him. When we're getting together repeatedly every time we come home for the weekends now, girls." he said to the duo and they started laughing at that and nodded in agreement.
"Well I'm in the middle of our version of our team, but it's the original color arrangement here." Rocky said to him and he nodded as Kim looked at Adam then. "Adam you remember everything we've gone through together, even when your heart was broken you still took the time to try and cheer me up. But I did anything I could to bring you out of your introvert stage." she said and he nodded to her smiling as he said it.
"When he left, I was there to give you a shoulder to lean on, and eighteen months later, we're this close that nothing could ever get between us now. Including a false break up letter, he wants to fight with me over this, I'm throwing it in his face you chose me now and letting him know the consequences of his taking off on you." he said and she nodded as Aisha gave a nod of agreement to his thoughts.
"God I don't know what I'd do without you guys." she said and he sighed. "Hopefully we never have to find out, but one thing's for sure is that the Ninjetti Six are sticking this out together." Rocky said and the quintet nodded in agreement. "Ninjetti, the falcon" "The Frog" "The Ape" "The Crane" "The Wolf" "The Bear" they shouted out one by one and thrust their fists together and the medallion appeared at the jolt and they smiled.
"We keep doing that and by the time our powers reach full strength its landing us back in our robes again, before we go back to morphing into our uniforms guys." She said smiling and they nodded grinning. "Hey guys, why not go for everything that we, as the Dino rangers used to do huh, only it's not just six anymore, but nine. Trips to the beach, picnics, movies and everything else. Like the broom ball championships again."
"We can act as a group of nine and do everything that we used to do, as either grouping, and as time goes on the connection starts getting stronger every day, we see each other all the time, our bonds as a group are beyond strong. And by the time our powers are back to full power the strength of unity in our team is so intact, nothing is getting in the way of it, once our power coins are ready. And once they are, we're back to full power and we don't needs the coins." she added and they all grinned at her idea then.
"Great idea Kim, we can go on everything we used to do as the group of either grouping, going to the beach or to the lake, study groups, go to the movies, to the park to play sports and we develop our bonds so deeply nothing is is getting in the way of it now." Jason said smiling as they were talking they suddenly heard the tv and she heard the music from the original show as they all turned to it to see him dressed in green.
"Uh oh, alright who turned that on?" Tommy asked quickly and they sighed. "I don't know, but I..., Green With Evil part V that's the day I broke the spell on you. Yeah alright, guys pay attention, you're going to need this now. This was Tommy when he started out at the time." Jason said as they watched the episode. "Tommy, please let us help you." They heard Kim's look alike say and tried to control the shudder.
As they saw the look on his face. "You have been warned." they heard him say coldly as he yanked his arm free of her grip and left the room. "Jesus Christ, no wonder you freaked out when you saw Draco standing there in the flesh, you've seen that look on his face before." Adam said and she nodded to him gently. "Yeah, but my Tommy is Anakin Skywalker at this stage, that's him when he finally fell to the darkside, as to that."
"Once he gets placed under a spell of this caliber, it takes knowing the weaknesses in the powers and knowing where and when and where to aim for, Adam. But this was the very first battle, though they sparred three times. This was the final piece to it. Knowing where and when to aim, gauging the weaknesses in his powers and Jason realizing only he could stop Draco, by neutralizing him, before breaking the spell."
"We offered him a place on the team, giving him a chance to heal and from then on, we were now a group of six. But this was us when he switched sides and came home for good now." she said and as they listened to their conversation as they saw Kim and Billy standing on his right, Jason, Zack and Trini on his left and saw the color formation in the exact same way as their photograph of them with their helmets off.
"Well that's everything we need now, regarding preventing him from falling completely. But what I can say is that if it takes bringing him back to the very beginning, than so be it. We have to get him to remember this as who he once was, when he chose you at the time, but if it takes draining his anger by getting him to change back into that uniform, I have no choice Jason." Kat said to him and he nodded with a sigh at that.
"Hey guys, if you're screwing around with the tv, jump forward to Return Of The Green Ranger please." Kim said and it switched episodes as they saw him in white and his clone in green. "Yeah I remember that, and that makes more sense now than it did two years ago. Alright our you was dressed in White, and you sometimes wore your green bandana, and were going back and forth between colors at the time."
"Their you was dressed completely in green at the time and..." Aisha started to say as they saw him lead them into the duo's trap. "Tommy, what's going on?" she heard Kim's look alike say and Rocky's answer that with a furious look. "He's turning on us, that's what." he said and she quickly answered that. "That's not Tommy..., no, it can't be, Draco. Billy, it's Draco." She said and they watched his eyes widen as she said it. "Draco, stop, don't!" she screamed as they got zapped back to the past.
"What the hell, Kim how did you know that's not Tommy?" Tanya asked her and she sighed. "Because his eyes were glowing green, the spell she left on him caused his eyes to start glowing green when he's pissed or if he's turned evil. But Tommy would never pull a stunt like this, I know him too well to know that. Draco is a megalomaniac, serving his creators, the gruesome twosome, Tommy, he's a power ranger to the core."
"He stopped dressing completely in green after he retired as the green ranger, but went back and forth between green and white when he took on the white ranger powers. His colors as the white ranger were white, gold and black. As the tiger ranger, he was wearing white with black mixed into it. And the gold of his armor covering him as well, I didn't have to see the power coin to know this was Draco either as well."
"As to why, that power coin is out of juice now, he drained every drop of the green ranger powers out of the power coin, before he took on this upgrade. Guys this was something we weren't ready to tell you when we met, but to prevent 'him' from running amok, you need to understand why I wrote that into the letter. Draco is the most dangerous opponent we've ever come into contact with." she said and the duo nodded.
"And Draco in Zord form is the Dragonzord?" Rocky asked her and she nodded. "Yeah, he gets his hands on that dagger it's going to start all over again for a third time, but I'm not ripping my heart out just to prevent him from getting his hands on that dagger. But if it takes bringing him back to the beginning when we were dressed in the original colors, we have to get him to vent all of it now." she said and they nodded as she finished.
"Evidently that's the part that got cut out of the episode when this happened. That's not the tv show, they're going over our backlogs at the time this was going on. Because I knew that wasn't Tommy the second you said that Rocky, he swore that he'd never turn on us willingly. But every time this happens, he doesn't have a choice in the matter." she said to him and he nodded to her gently as they watched the rest of that arc.
"Zordon is that you doing the tapes regarding this or is it our animals, so the quintet can understand this more easily?" Jason said and they heard him explain that. "Ever since I chose you, I've been monitoring things. But that's left over from the logs, Jason, but I knew that wasn't Tommy when I saw him. The act of them cloning him drained his strength, and I had to break the spell."
"Rangers listen to me, though this may seem small, the threat must be taken seriously, you five haven't dealt with this yet. But facing Draco is very dangerous, it take a good deal of know how in order to fight him in the way the trio had. For the five of you, the four of you must drain him down in anger and then let her take over, but the five of you: Jason, Kimberly, Billy, Adam, Aisha."
"You must change into your original uniforms to get him to remember. Rocky, Kat, Tanya, change into you robes and once done, all of you go Ninjetti and finish the mission. Once done we must recharge her powers to help her recover from this. Because the repeated spells are going to drain her till that last quarter puts her on the mat." he explained and Billy swallowed at the news.
"She drains herself completely to save me it's going to put her back in the emergency room, no not again, we have to deal with that. Dragon, Tiger, Brennan, Rex, can we heal her by using our shields?" Tommy asked quickly and Rex answered that question. "Yes we can, to heal the damage from the amount of stress the duo put on her and her getting this weak, it's going to take transferring our shields to her."
"We can put her back at full power in both ways, but once we do this, she can't keep over doing it like that, she can only fight the troops. But the girls and Billy can continue to swap places with you guys till our un-named ally is ready to take back the powers. And we go back and return to the way it was as he retakes the post as the red ranger and you continue swapping places with Adam." he said and they nodded as he pulled her closer to him gently as Tanya sighed.
"Alright now I'm beginning to understand why you put those warnings into the letter, to prevent that him from ever making a comeback. But seeing it is one thing, living it is another. So I just watch and review these till that letter does its job and we're safe after that now." Tanya said, watching the episodes and the quartet nodded in agreement. "Yeah and once you do live it, you understand how dangerous it is like we do."
"As to that, Rocky though you carried my original power coin, you never did battle with him to know the strengths and weaknesses in the powers. To do this, I have to be the one to face off against Draco, even dressed in my new color, he's going to know me the second he sees me now. But as you're my beta now, once I let you know, I need the four of you as back up, teleport in, and Kim, you, Sha' and Billy come next."
"Our friendship is all that matters, I'm not losing either of you over something as trivial and private as this." Jason said and Tommy nodded to him gently. "Strength of the unity of our portion of the team we're the oldest and the originals. But half on one of side of the power team, the other on the other side. But the three of us have all three original powers. We're the strongest of the entire team now." he said to him and he nodded.
"Like we said, my boyfriends back and you're going to be in big trouble here." Kat said with a growl and he nodded in agreement. "Yeah well you're mated to a wolf Kat, like me, he's going to do anything and be anything for you, so you got your own wolf now and she's got me, we're completely equal." Tommy said and she nodded, just as she was answering though, they heard an adult version to Billy's voice call out then.
