Krista sat up on the desk she was laying on. Connor seemed reluctant to let go of Kira. Technically Krista and Connor weren't an 'Item' but they were pretty close. And she felt betrayed that he was their, holding Kira like Krista wasn't even there.

The blond fell to the ground, hard. When he hit, he tilted his head back in pain.

"Josh?" The girl in the leather jacket asked. "Are you okay?"

He bent his head down and looked at the floor.

Krista saw something else. Right before it happened she saw his ears perk up.

"CONNOR KIRA MOVE!" He yelled.

Connor caught his warning and threw him and Kira too the ground.

Then the wall exploded.

The one called Josh stood up.

"GO!" He yelled to all of them.

Dr. Oliver ran and scooped Krista up. Trent ran and opened the door and ushered them out.

Josh averted his eyes to the hole in the wall.

"Josh?" His mother asked.

"Go! I'll be fine." He ordered.

"Come on Kim." Jason yelled, grabbing Kim's hand and dragging her out.

Ethan followed Trent out of the room and Josh, Kira and Connor were all that was left.

The wind picked up and the door slammed shut.

"MWAHAHAHAHAHA" A voice rang through the room.

"What's happening?" Kira yelled.

As she asked, putties appeared in the hole in the wall.

"Get behind me!" Josh ordered. He covered the 2 with his arms and backed up.

"We can help!" Connor argued.

"You've never fought these before. I have!" Josh pulled a pen out of his pocket.

"What the heck is a pen going to do at a time like this?" Connor demanded.

Josh clicked the pen and it expanded into a sword. Made of pure emerald, no less, and deadly to those crossed by the blade.

Josh moved into battle.

He sliced, hacked, and jabbed until there were only a couple left.

Kira's eyes widened at his power and ferocity.

The 2 remaining moved to attack at once but Josh ducked and rolled out of the way and destroyed them both in one expert swing.

The wind resumed gaining speed, Connor's hair was flying back, Kira's was everywhere.

"We have to help him." Kira yelled to Connor over the wind.

Connor looked and saw why.

Josh's back was turned and one putty wasn't actually gone. Just knocked out.

Kira attempted a Ptera scream but they were both thrown back in the process.

Connor attempted to move through the wind but it was like moving through very thick jello.

The putty wrapped itself around Josh and held on for dear life.

Josh struggled to fight it off but obviously this one was stronger than the rest. Josh turned and slammed the putty into the wall but this one was smarter and used its own strength to flip Josh, forcing him to slam into the wall.

Josh fell to one knee. 'How is this putty so much stronger? Or smarter?' He silently asked himself. The putty kicked him to the ground.

Kira grabbed Connor's hand for reassurance but Connor had none to give. He didn't see how they could save Josh from the putty. So he tried to figure it out. (Not something he'd ever been good at)

Something was definitely wrong but Connor couldn't figure out what. The wind and the attack couldn't have been coincidence.

Then the putty lifted something out of its belt, a sword.

The putty struck down hard on Josh's neck.

...

...

...

...

Josh was saved by a pink blast coming from nowhere.

The putty howled in pain and fell back.

Josh looked up to see a cloaked person holding a blaster. It tilted its head, in silent comman, and Josh replied by turning and running towards the Red and Yellow Dino Rangers.

"Josh?" Kira asked.

He ran right past them, grabbing each of their hands he dragged them out of the science room.

Now positive that they were following him, Josh dropped their hands and procceeded to storm out of the school.

None of them said anything as they reached the entrance (Exit) to the school. Josh walked out and they followed.

They saw the veteran rangers, Jason, Kimberly, Dr Oliver, Ethan, and Trent all surrounding Tommy's jeep.

Tommy was in the driver's seat.

Kim ran up to hug her son but he refused to do so. (A/N In this story Kim is a caring mother that can't help but try to hug her son everytime he manages to walk away from a battle. It is possible that she hugs him everytime because when he walks away that means the prophecy will not be fulfilled yet...Which means Josh is alive.)

Instead of walking to the jeep, Josh turned towards the school and looked at the giant hole in the building.

The cloaked figure wasn't there, but he knew where she'd be.

Kira appeared behind him, still holding Connor's hand, and put her arm on his shoulder.

At the time she wouldn't be able to tell you why, but this kid was something else. He wasn't unlike the Dino Rangers when they first started, alone.

Later she would tell you that he's like a little brother to her. Except for the part that he jumps in front of her in combat.

Josh just stopped and stood there.

From a voice in the distance he heard someone ask,

"How did he know Trini? He wasn't very old when she..."

He was reminded of a night, many years ago, the night Trini Kwan died...

FLASHBACK

The air was cooler as it was turning into fall, in early September. September 3rd 2001 to be exact.

The day started well enough. Josh trained with Trini late into the morning in basic yoga stretches. Moving on to more complicated karate and self defense techniques in the afternoon.

Josh and Trini were sparring on the driveway when the attack started.

Josh had just executed his first perfect tornado kick (A/N thats the kick Jason did in Day of the Dumpster) Trini successfully blocked it, however stopped the spar in order to give Josh praise, which she did everytime Josh did something right.

Josh had grinned in triumph until the night air turned dark.

"Josh! Run inside!" Trini had ordered.

But Josh refused. His heart began to open to courage and he stood.

Portals opened in the sky. It seemed the world was ending all around them, so much for a nice month of training with Trini...

Then they were surrounded by villains. Robots (cyclobots).

Josh and Trini did their best but their sheer numbers were overpowering the old yellow ranger and her pupil.

He ran to her assistance as she was taken by the throat by the worst cyclobot he could find. It raised its blade to strike but was interrupted by a red blast.

The red time force ranger appeared behind the blast and blasted the cyclobots into oblivion.

Trini was wheezing but Josh did not move to her, instead he focused on the surrounding robots that he had no hopes of defeating.

Trini looked up and was amazed with her pupil's speed, ferocity, and courage.

Struck from behind the son of Jason+Kimberly fell to the earth.

Josh remembered in horror Trini's several failed attempts to rebreathe life into him. He remembered the cry of failure voiced by his mentor.

Until she put her hand on his heart and literally gave him the strength to live. She transferred her will to live to him and then she fell.

Josh was reenergized and resumed destroying cyclobots.

In minutes they were gone, taken with them the Red Time Force power ranger.

Josh knelt at Trini's side as she passed.

Kim was telling the same story to Tommy and the other Dino Rangers. Brought up by Tommy's question earlier she concluded the story,

"He sat with her until her time came." Kim was tearing up, but Jason put his arm around her and held her close. Jason then looked awkwardly at Tommy who shrugged.

Josh stood tall and turned around, a trick he picked up from his dad.

"We have to move to a safer location." Josh decided.

No one argued,

"Where?" Trent asked. "Headquarters is still badly messed up..."

"Not as bad as it was." Connor interrupted.

"Yeah me and Connor have been helping Dr.O with cleaning the place up since...our beach day." Kira told Trent.

"Okay that was June 12th right?" Trent asked. "Mesogog was beaten May 27th. And today is July 21st. That means you guys have been cleaning up for a month...and the way that place was trashed..."

"It'll be fine." Dr. O interrupted. "Ethan, Trent, and I guess Krista, may as well explain everything to her. Jason Kim you guys have cars?" He asked a stupid question.

"My motorcycle is in the back. I can take Kim but we have something we need to do first." He turned to his son. "Go with them. Behave." Josh looked at his father like Seriously? When in my life have you known me to misbehave? "Don't be impulsive" Jason amended. "Listen to Connor, and Tommy."

Tommy reached for a pen and piece of paper in his glove department. He quickly wrote down his address, and phone number.

"Why listen to Connor and not everyone else?" Krista piped up.

Everyone looked at her, but Trent nodded in agreement.

"Well, I mean he wears red." Jason never really had much practice with telling civilians about the Power Rangers.

"Ok?" Krista asked.

"Krista...in the Power Rangers when you wear red it typically means your leader. I found the red dino gem..."

"You're leader..Got it." Krista answered.

Kira huffed in annoyance.

Connor looked at Kira sympathetically and released her hand, so he could put his arm around her.

This made Trent mad. But he resolved to say nothing.

Krista shared his anger, and took Kira's lead and huffed in annoyance.

"Ermmm...I guess you could ride with Connor and Kira. You seem to like Kira the most so..." Tommy told him.

Connor held Kira tighter.

"With that dramatic pause over," Ethan said hoping to break the tension. "Let's go."

The ride took 15 minutes.

15 minutes in a car with one kid that practically hates you and a girl you happen to be connected with through a telepathic connection, is not fun.

Of course Connor would never say that he didn't like Josh. The truth was that he did, in fact, like the kid. Except for when he shares eye stares with Kira.

Woah. I thought I got over liking Kira? He asked himself. Obviously not. He argued.

Connor shut off his mind and continued driving.

A/N in this story I am going to focus a bit on each ranger as individuals. Kira's music, Connor's soccer,Ethan's technology, and Trent's love for art.

Which means I may have to "borrow" lyrics from stars that I know for Kira's songs. Because I have almost no creativity when it comes to songs. So i'll "borrow" songs from people like Taylor Swift, then give them proper credit at the beginning and/or ending of the story.

These songs are not originals and i you ask me what song it is I'll happily point you in the right direction.

Kira didn't know what to do. Connor held her like only a Boyfriend should. And he made her heart flutter like only a boyfriend should.

Problem? She WAS NOT his girlfriend. Hence she should not be having these feelings.

Part of her was glad that he held her hand even though he knew Krista was watching. She didn't believe that the 2 were dating so no holds barred...Right?

Her heart warmed even more when he put his arm around her.

I don't know when this started but...its going on. And I can't help but think...

OH MY GOD! She thought to herself. I'm in love with Connor...CONNOR MCKNIGHT!

What if he didn't want a relationship? What if he did? What if he wanted kids?

She began wheezing at the thought of kids, half her.. half Connor.

"Kira..." Connor put his hand on her knee as he stopped at a stopsign. "You okay?" He tried to get a look at her face by bending over. (She was practically in veto position.)

"Fine." She said at last.

He continued driving. His hand never left her knee.

In her mind she decided to stop thinking about Connor, instead she began writing a song... in her mind she began to sing...

Don't you worry your pretty little mind

People throw rocks at things that shine

And life makes love look hard

The stakes are high the water's rough

But this love is ours.

There it was again. That word...love.

They reached their destination, and got out of Connor's car.

"You've been following me?" Josh asked.

Connor and Kira had no idea what he was talking about. He was facing them, with a knowing expression.

"Erm..."

Connor's answer was interrupted by the appearance of the cloaked figure that shot the putties.

"Do I have reason to worry?" Josh asked, turning around to face the cloaked figure.

The figure drew her hood back and spoke.

"You should always worry." She said.

It took Connor a second to realize who this was. But an old picture he had found in th wreakage came crawling back to him.

"You're Jen aren't you?"

The girl raised her eyebrow in question.

"Pink Time Force ranger." He finished.

She nodded.

"Get back to your friends Connor. this time around...well let's just say that they," She shook her head towards Kira. "need your help. More than last time."

She raised her hood and turned around to walk off into the distance.

"Wait." Josh said moving so he could put his hand on her shoulder. "Did they kill him?" He asked.

She turned to him and had tears in her eyes.

"I'm...not sure."

"Do you think he's coming back?" He asked sympathetically.

"I don't...I don't know." She straightened herself and turned away.

It took a second for Kira to remember what Kim said.

Trini was killed in Time Force's final battle. Wesley Collins, red Time Force ranger, had almost died, when his friends, Lucas, Trip, Katie, and Jen, arrived and helped.

Wes also saved Josh when he was outnumbered by Cyclobots.

Was it possible that Josh knew Wes? Kira also recalled that the Pink and Red Time Force rangers were practically an item. A VERY VERY LONG distance item...but a couple.

So Wes was in danger now? She didn't dare voice her hypothesis. From what she remembered Jen was a formidable fighter and you DID NOT want to cross her.

Jen walked off.

She looked at Connor, who had come to the same conclusion.

She wanted Connor to put his arm around her again but no luck.

"Let's go." Connor decided. He put his hand on Josh's shoulder and turned him around. "Come on dude."

So? Lengthy chapter right? Well I feel like Failure barely had anything in it and its been a couple days since my last update so I thought I'd draw it out.

Note: This story is set to pertain parts of each groupl of Power Rangers up to Dino Thunder. Except for MMAR and PRWF. I don't know PRWF except for the 2 reunion episodes (Forever Red and the one with all of the TF rangers) I did watch the first episode but I wasn't hooked.

Rights go to SABAN (or whoever owns Power Rangers at the time of your reading this story.

Also rights to the lyrics Kira sings in her head belong to Taylor Swift...The song is Ours.

Please Please Please review!
