Chapter 11: Recruiting
"Okay, so Dr. Oliver said that Zack, Trini, and Kimberly should be the Rangers we need." said Jason.
It's been 2 weeks since the fight with Scorpina and Rita has been rapidly having Putties cause havoc in different areas in Angel Grove. Just some Putties, nothing else. Dr. Oliver thought that this was perfect training for Jason and especially Billy, who is still trying to master the power of the Triceratops. However, Jason is getting busier in life, causing Billy to take care of most of the Putty attacks. For the attack on Rita's Palace though, Dr. Oliver suggested that they should just get Zack, Trini, and Kimberly to do it, but there's one problem. They didn't fight together as a team in this timeline, so they might not want to do it. It'll take some convincing.
Jason and Billy were hanging out at the juice bar, watching Zack finish up his Hip Hop Kido class.
"Hey what's up, Jason!" said Zack Taylor as he walked towards him. "You said you needed to talk to me?"
"Yeah." He responded. "Come with me. Billy's already got Trini and Kimberly with him.
As they walk out of the juice bar, Bulk and Skull watch them as they sit at a table.
"Hm." pondered Bulk. "Wonder what Jason wants Zack for. Let's investigate!"
Bulk and Skull sneak behind Jason and Zack as they walk to the location Billy said that should meet at.
Eventually, they get to an large barnhouse out of town.
"Wait." said Zack. "Whose house is this?"
"One of Billy's relatives died and his family got the house. They don't intend on selling it for a few years, so some people are living here for a while." answered Jason.
"Who are they?" asked Zack. "Jason, you're starting to creep me out."
"Calm down, Zack." said Jason. "You'll be fine."
Jason and Zack walk in to see Billy, Trini, and Kimberly.
"Hey Zack!" said Trini.
"Guys, what's going on here?" asked Zack.
"I think I can explain."
Dr. Oliver walked down the stairs, staring at the teens who seemed surprised.
"Everyone, this is Dr. Tommy Oliver." said Jason. "He's the Black Power Ranger."
"No way." said Kimberly.
"Way."
DINO THUNDER! POWER UP!
Dr. Oliver morphed to prove a point, then unmorphed.
"I can't believe this." said Zack.
"Yeah, this is crazy." said Kimberly.
"Well, the reason we brought you here is that we need Rangers, and you three are the perfect candidates."
"Billy and I are already Rangers." said Jason.
"Why us?" asked Trini.
"Well, here's the shocking news." said Dr. Oliver.
"Yeah. Like none of this is shocking news." Kimberly said to Zack.
"See, I'm from the future, as are the other Rangers on my team." said Dr. Oliver.
"So, who are they?" asked Kimberly.
"They're me."
Four almost identical Tommy Oliver's walked into the room.
"This has got a dream."
Kimberly fainted.
