Seven Years Ago

"Okay, so, you hold the ball like this, and then you swing it back—"

Vida huffed and rolled her eyes. "I know how to bowl, Chip."

Chip shrugged his shoulders and smiled sheepishly at his friend. "I was just saying. I mean, with your mom, you never know…" The smile immediately fell off of Chip's face as he saw his friends' annoyed faces. "I'm sorry," he said, quietly.

Maddie shook her head. "Don't worry about it, Chip. We're just agreeing with you, don't worry."

"Why don't we move on to happier thoughts?" Chip suggested. "I mean, we are here for bowling, after all."

Vida clapped her hands together and picked up a bowling ball. "Well, then, it sounds like a plan!" She swung her arm back and the let the ball go, watching with satisfaction as it rolled down the center of the lane and knocked all the pins down. She smiled smugly as she turned to Chip.

"I don't know how to bowl," she said with an ungraceful snort. "Yeah, right."

"Nice shot," a voice behind them said.

All three eleven-year olds turned around to see Xander Bly standing in front of them. He was holding a green bowling ball and he had a slight smile on his face.

Vida's brow furrowed in annoyance and she crossed her arms over her chest. "Thanks," she mumbled.

Maddie chuckled to herself and shook her head. Already, she could tell that her sister liked the new kid.

"Can I join?" Xander asked.

Chip beamed at his new friend. "Sure!" he exclaimed. He then seemed to remember that he was there with two other people, and he turned to his best friends with an apologetic look on his face.

"Sorry," he muttered. "Is it okay with you two?"

Maddie nodded her head. She didn't see why not. "Sure," she agreed.

They both looked at Vida, who grudgingly nodded her head. "Whatever," she said.

Chip and Maddie exchanged a look and both covered their mouths with their hands to hide their laughs. It appeared that Maddie wasn't the only one to notice who Vida liked.


"Magical source, mystic force?"

"Yes," Udonna confirmed.

Xander made a face. "It sounds weird," he said.

Udonna glanced over at Daggeron, who rolled his eyes. They confirmed with a look Xander's annoying tendencies.

"But what you end up with isn't weird," Udonna said. "Now say it."

The five teens looked at each other and flipped their morphers open. They repeated the chant, and, in a flash of light, their vision was suddenly darkened. Each ranger touched their face, only to find helmet's covering their heads. They finally looked at each other, shocked to see that each were glad in bright spandex.

Maddie's hands immediately went to the small, blue skirt that was over her leggings. She smoothed it out and felt her cheeks heat up as her teammates took in each other's outfits.

"It's tight," she mumbled.

"We look tight!" Chip said. His four teammates and two mentors turned around and looked at him. Chip's cheeks turned red and he looked down. "All I meant was that the uniforms were tight and we were wearing it..."

Vida laughed and hugged her friend. "We got it, Chip."

"It was cute," Maddie said. Chip threw her a thankful smile and then proceeded to chekc out his new uniform, leaving the rest of the rangers to hear their mentor's response.

Udonna chuckled. "It's easier to move in."

"Dude!" Chip tried again. He clenched his cape in between his fingers and jumped up and down. "We look bad ass! Look at our capes!"

"Yeah," Xander scoffed. "Because capes just scream 'bad ass.'"

No one could tell for sure, but everyone was certain that Chip was glaring at Xander. "They do to me," he said.

"My point has been proven."

Udonna shook her head and smiled. "What do you all think?"

"They're…" Maddie began, but she stopped. She wasn't quite sure how she wanted to describe their new uniforms. She wasn't really one to go around wearing brightly-colored spandex with a helmet and cape on.

"Ridiculous," Vida supplied.

Maddie rolled her eyes. She knew what her sister was going to say before the words even left her mouth. In fact, she was pretty sure everyone knew what Vida was going to say.

"It's pink!" Vida exclaimed. "Completely, and totally pink. It's just pink."

"Hey, to be fair, there is some white," Chip said.

"Chip, white doesn't count as a color," Vida grumbled.

Maddie shook her head and placed her hand on her sister's shoulder, squeezing it comfortingly. "V, your uniform is pink," she said. "Get used to it."

Vida made a face at her, even though she knew full well that her sister couldn't see it. "You're just saying that because you're happy with your color. It's blue."

"Yes, and I like blue," Maddie said firmly. "Now let it go."

"Well," Daggeron said. "Now that we're though discussing our uniforms, why don't we practice in them?"


The Rocca twins entered their house and shut the door quietly behind them. They put their jackets on the hanger and then went towards the stairs as quietly as they could. They hoped to go up to their rooms and feign sleep so their mother wouldn't get on their case. As soon as their foot touched the first step, however, a door slammed and they could hear footsteps echoing down the hallway.

Vida bit her lip and closed her eyes. "Shit," she mumbled.

"So, Madison," Katherine said. She put her hands on her hips and raised an eyebrow at her youngest daughter. "How was your date?"

Vida patted Maddie on the shoulder. "See ya, sis," she said before she booked it up the stairs.

Maddie rolled her eyes. "Thanks for the help, sis!" she yelled back. She mumbled several choice words under her breath as she heard the door to Vida's bedroom close.

"Well?" Katherine demanded in a short, clipped voice a moment later.

Maddie jumped. She had forgotten that her mother was standing there. She twisted her hands inside her sweater pocket and looked everywhere but her mother. The last thing she wanted was for this to get back to Nick.

"It was… It was good," Maddie finally managed in a small voice. She mentally winced at herself. God, it was a wonder her mother believed anything that came out of her moth lately.

"Really? And when do I get to meet this boy?"

Maddie's eyes widenened. "I… I… I don't really think that… maybe you… he is… I… I don't know."

"We should arrange for him to have dinner over tomorrow night," Katherine said. "I would very much like to meet him. I'm not comfortable with my daughter dating someone that I know nothing about."

"Mom, really, it's fine," Maddie said, finally snapping out of her shocked trance. "You don't need to meet him. He's prefectly fine." She raised her own eyebrow at her mother. "You trust me, don't you?"

Katherine walked down the hallway. Just as she was about to enter the kitchen, she turned back around and smiled at her daughter.

"No, I don't," she said. "I expect him to be here at five-thrity."

As the door swung shut behind Katherine, Maddie dropped down to the step and propped her elbows up on her knees. She rested her head in her palms and sighed.

How the hell was she going to get out of this one?
