So lets get going
New Power Generation Pt 1
The Rangers home:
"Oh right there baby don't stop," Tracie moaned as the skillful tongue and fingers of the girl between her legs pleasured her making her already wet sex leak onto her bed sheets
"You like that huh. Your pussy got so wet for me with two lets see what three does baby. The girl said in a seductive voice as she added a third finger into Tracie's sex
"OH SHIT! YESSS FUCK MEE!," Tracie moaned as the girl's fingers found her g-spot and tongue flicked her clit "YESS OH GOD! JULIE YES!..."
"Shit! ...Not again," Tracie said as she woke from another dream of her Julie making love always ending with the same wetness between her legs. The dreams had begun a night after the kiss they had shared some weeks before, and Tracie had been wrestling with her feelings for the other girl. On the one hand she was attracted to her. But on the other she felt guilty and conflicted by Julie being her departed brother's girlfriend. She didn't know how to deal with her feelings but she knew she'd get no sleep and it was very early morning. 'I need to clear my head' she thought climbing out of her bed and quickly putting on a pair of jeans and a t-shirt grabbing her sneakers and helmet before heading down stairs. As she Made her way down the stairs she herd a noise from the kitchen. Her ranger instincts taking over she closed her eyes and prepared to fire a energy blast from them. As she turned the corner and saw what caused the noise she instantly powered down the blast.
"Dave what are you doing," she said flipping on the light and making her brother drop the whipped cream and chocolate syrup
"Oh hey Tracie I was just um you know..." David trailed off picking the items up from the floor trying to find an answer besides the obvious.
"Going downstairs to have sex with Selena," Tracie said cutting him off before he could give an excuse.
"Yeah ... Hey wait why are you dressed like you're going for a ride its like one o'clock in the morning," David asked wondering why his sister was dressed this time of morning.
"I couldn't sleep. A lot of stuff on my mind," Tracie said sitting at the table.
"Stuff like what," David as he took a seat beside his youngest sister.
"Nothing just dreams and other things. Just forget about it" She said.
"Hey c'mon Tracie you know you can talk to me about anything kid, so spill it" David said truthfully. Despite his close relationship with Stina David had always felt slightly closer to Tracie and could talk to her about things he couldn't with the others and she him. This was their bond.
" Its like this I've been having these, dreams really sexy dreams about a girl someone close to us someone that's like family and I've been kind of having all these feelings for her,"
"Whoa I mean Max is hot but you know Stina will freak if you tell her but she'll let it go I mean-" David said being cut off by Tracie.
"Davie I kissed Julie!" Tracie said.
"You did what! What the hell were You thinking runt I mean E J's barley been gone a month," David said
"I know but we were in my room the night of the gig we were talking she said how pretty my eyes are then we just kissed !, Now all awkward and confused around her" Tracie said in one breath . "Dave please I need you to vault this man. Like double vault this," Tracie said asking David for the utmost secrecy.
"Trace. This is like major man but I'll vault it until you figure things out," He said.
"Thanks big guy," Tracie said hugging David.
"Yeah, yeah just get some sleep runt," David said as he walked to the basement leaving Tracie with her thoughts neither of them knowing that across the city the same thoughts traveled through Julie's mind
Julie's House:
"Damn it why does this keep happening," She said waking from her latest dream of the green ranger. 'I can't get her out of my head those soft lips those green eyes the way sweat runs down her stomach. No Julie you're not attracted to Tracie like that our any girl like that,' Julie thought trying to convince herself of the fact that the dreams and feelings were nothing but passing thoughts in her mind. But her hart knew different and was conflicted by her feelings for her deceased boy friend. "Oh poppy I miss you so much. But why do I feel this way about Tracie," she asked looking for answers from her departed lover knowing no reply would come. After a few more minutes before she forced herself back to sleep.
Atlan's fortress:
Tyson walked the halls of the fortress frustrated which had become a constant as of late since being bested by Tracie as of late. 'Damn her. How can I defeat her defeat them all' he thought. As he walked as he passed Atlan's throne room he heard the conversation inside between Atlan and Girder.
"The weapon isn't doing as well we planned master," Girder said
"Yes it seems we may have to deal with him sooner than planned," the dark warlord unaware that Tyson was now hearing everything. "Such a shame he may meet his feet sooner than the other Daxamites," Atlan continued.
"Truly its time to dismiss him with his defeats at the hands of the human as well as the prophecy my lord" Girder said sparking Tyson's interest
"The star prophecy will not come to Girder our pawn will deal with the others before they have a chance to figure it out. Then we shall deal with him," Atlan said.
'We'll see a bout that master,' Tyson thought as he left the door way.
The Ranger's home:
It was a normal busy Saturday morning for the ranger team. Talia and Shane were cooking dinner while the others were getting ready to go to the shop and work there normal weekend shift. "Good morning mom, good morning sugar Shane," Troia said giving her boyfriend a small kiss on the lips. " So what's for breakfast," she continued
"Pancakes sausage and eggs have to keep my little anime girl strong," Shane said.
"You're such a girl, Parker. I honestly think those hormones aren't really working," Kal said as he came into the room being followed by Stina, Max, David, and Tracie.
"You know little bro I think you could learn a little from Parker like how to keep your woman happy," Stina said.
"So very true Kal I bet Shane O never had his skate board sent through a jig saw," David said.
"Yeah, yeah. Speaking of girlfriends where's Selena," Kal asked.
"In the basement why," David replied quietly.
"David go get her before the food gets cold," Talia said. "And you shouldn't think those things about your mother young man" she added as David made his way to the basement.
The basement lab that had become Selena's room was quiet and dark the only light in the room coming from the large computer screen as David made his way into the room. "Selena, Sel baby you up," he called. He then saw a figure huddled in a corner of the room. "Lights!," yelled signaling the lights to come on making the figure visible as a very scared Selena rocking back and fourth with her knees pulled to her chest. "Selena, Selena what's wrong," he asked causing her to flinch away from him. As she did David could see blood seeping from between her fingers and running down her legs. " Baby what's wrong what did you do to yourself" he asked.
"Voices, so many voices. Can't stop them can't stop hearing them," Selena babbled.
"Selena its me baby what's wrong," David asked not knowing what the internal struggle going on inside his lovers mind. His mother had told him and the others that although at times Selena ay seem like she had adjusted. she may very well never be normal. that all the traumatic memories of all the evil she has done and has had done to her over the past decades weighed heavy on her mind. "Selena I can help you ok baby just tell me what's wrong," David said.
"No! voices demons, won't stop! Have to make them stop!," Selena said knocking David away from her. Before David could react Selena plunged the dagger that she had used so many times in her life as Sala into her own stomach. David dashed over to her catching her falling body. "They stopped I can sleep now. Just let me sleep David" Selena said as her eyes drifted shut as David called for his mother and the others.
"Selena, Sel, you can wake up now," David said stroking her hair as her eyes fluttered open.
"David w-what happened," she said as her vision came in to focus as she registered the pain in her stomach.
"You blacked out Selena lucky David was here to keep you from bleeding out," Talia said, "Can you tell us what hppened," she continued.
"I kept hearing voices, like from my past horrible things. Faces people they told me I had to die that I should be dead for what I've done. And I just wanted to be free of them and-" Selena trailed off before her words were cut off by Troia.
"Then you decided to be a coward and kill yourself," Troia said getting a slap on her shoulder from Shane. "What!," she said with a shock.
"You're supposed to be friends with her Troi-bear," Shane said.
"No Shane Troia's right I am a coward and I deserve a coward's death. I'm evil and I need to die," Selena said
"That's not exactly true babe. Sala was evil not you," David said.
"David Sala is me can't you see that," she said before David and the others heard a voice that they hated to hear.
"You know she's got you there Davie" Tyson said in a mocking voice.
"What do you want Tyson! ," David said the anger radiating in his voice.
"Now, now Davie you'd think you could be nice after that nice little present I sent Sala this morning," Tyson said the wickedness seething in his voice.
"Enough games Mason what do you want!," Talia said.
"My name is Tyson auntie Talia, and my business is with you. What do you know of the star prophecy," Tyson said sending chills throughout Talia's body. Talia took the moment of weakness to block Tyson from her and the others minds.
"Mom what is he talking about," Stina said curiously.
"Yeah Talia what's the star prophecy," Max asked seconding her girlfriend.
Talia took a deep breath and scanned her children's faces before giving her explanation. "The star prophecy is a part of the legend of your powers. It tells of an eighth Quasar stone containing the full portion of the Quasar knights powers and the eighth sprit," she said.
"Mom I thought there were only seven stones and we have them all except Tyson's," Tracie said.
"Yeah and what do you mean full portion of the of the Quasar knights powers. I thought we had all our powers," Kal said causing his mother to go into further explanation.
"Yes Kal you have your ranger powers bout the powers inside the eighth stone known a s the star of Daxam contains the fury element that intensifies your powers," Talia said.
"So we all get a power boost," David said.
"All but Tracie and Tyson unless one of them can harness a the power of the eighth sprit," Selena said giving what little knowledge she knew of the prophecy.
"So its simple then we go get this thing before Atlan and Tyson get there hands on it," David said sure of himself.
"Its not that simple David we have to find it first and we don't even know where to look right Talia," Shane said
"Not exactly Shane," Talia said as a flood of images and visions of her dreams from the past month came into her mind and she made her way to the computer. "It all makes sense now," she said as she keyed in a intricate sequence of codes.
"What does" Stina asked
"My dreams Austina, The ones with your uncle Micah he kept telling me things about the prophecy. And before he died he gave me this," Talia said as she finished keying in the last of the code triggering a cylinder shaped force filed containing a gold disc with a blue aura around it. If the others had be looking among them they would have seen the entrance look on Max's face.
"You have it, you've had it all these years," Selena said shocked at the objects presence.
"Mom just what is this thing," Kal asked.
"This the map to the eighth stone," Talia said, "only thing is I can't figure it out," she continued.
"What do you mean," Shane asked.
"Its like a puzzle but I can't figure it out," Talia explained. just then Max be gain to slowly walk towards the object with an outstretched hand. The others quickly noticed non more so than Stina.
"Wildcat baby what are you doing," Stina asked concerned as her girlfriend inched closer to the cylinder.
"I don't know its like the disc its calling me pulling me to it I, I AHH!," Max said ending her statement with a pained scream as she grabbed the disc filling room with a with a pale blue light, and Max's hair began to fly about as if caught in a whirl wind. "AHH THE POWER TOO MUCH AHHH!," Max screamed as her body began to float o off the ground and her eyes began to glow a bluish white.
Stina feeling the need to protect her true love ran to her side "Max baby fight it just Ahh!," Stina said as a bolt of energy hurled her to the floor sending sliding into a wall.
"Stina! you ok," Tracie asked running to her sisters side.
"Uh yeah just worry about Max," Stina said as Tracie helped her from the floor as blind white light flooded the room and Max floated back to the ground surrounded by the same blue light as the disc had been. The disc it self had become an amulet around Max's neck, and her eyes remained the same bluish white color.
"Maxine are you ok," Talia asked as she felt the now powerful energy radiating from within Max's body
"Maxine? Is that the name of my vessel," Max said in duel voice making the hairs on the backs of everyone's necks stand on end.
"Whoa, this is weird even for us," Kal said
"Why is this strange for you keeper of the griffin," Max said in the same duel voice.
"Ok enough of this who are you and what have you done to Max!" Stina yelled furious. She could tell that although the figure before them looked liked her girlfriend it was in fact not.
"You are the keeper of the phoenix. You are very protective of my vessel, you're in love with her you'd die for her," Max said. "I am Aura, viewer of truth, source of the one called Max's powers. I am the one you called the key," She continued putting look of shock on everyone's faces.
"You're the key?" David asked, getting a look of conformation from Aura. "So why are you here he continued.
"I am here to guide the children of Daxam to the eighth sprit," Aura said unaware that there enemies were listening to them.
Outside the ranger's home Tyson sat perched in a tree some feet away. "You forgot about my sonic hearing my dear aunt Talia," he said to himself as a wicked smile played across his face. "The eighth sprit will be mine then when I destroy you and your children I will rid myself of Atlan," he said.
Atlan's Fortress:
Atlan used his magic to look upon Tyson and the rangers along with Girder. He seethed with anger and slammed his fist against his throne. "A cursed Daxamite bastards," Atlan said. "They all think they can change their fate and the fate of this pathetic world. When will they learn no matter what they do They are weak useless and that I am always one step a head of them," he said. "Girder bring me the five dark guard talismans ,"Atlan commanded.
"My lord do you feel that now is the time to summon them," Girder asked knowing full well the power that five creatures possessed and the destruction they could leave behind.
"Yes I am sure. It is time the rangers knew just how powerful my army truly is," Atlan said.
The rangers home:
"So let me get this straight, Max isn't Max but some ancient named Aura," said Julie who had arrived sometime ago. "And she like knows stuff like a physic or something," she continued getting a nods from Shane and Selena. "And there's like an eighth stone with all these powers she's supposed to lead them to," she said.
"Yeah that's it in a nut shell," Shane said.
"You know what the odd thing is Shane, this doesn't seem as weird as it should," Julie said.
"Yeah I know guess it comes with dating aliens," Shane said.
"Or working for the enemy for oh say twenty one years," Selena said getting an odd look from Shane and Julie.
"Ok Sel just how old are you anyway I mean I know you look nineteen but really how old are you," Shane asked.
"Forty," Selena said with a sigh as she got up from where she was sitting and walked to the others as a way of being close to the. young man she loved but stopped as she herd Aura's voice behind her.
"You will hurt him dark one," Aura said the overlapping tones of her voice making Selena quake.
"What?" Selena said.
"You're not ready to love him, because you do not love yourself. You are a danger to him and the others. David has a destiny he is not fully aware of yet and you hinder him you're not meant to be together at least not yet. But my gifts of sight allow me to see things dark one the longer you are with him the more you hurt him and yourself," Aura said before rejoining the others.
"She's wrong I'm sure of it. But how can I be?," Selena thought to herself as she remained still contemplating what Aura had said to her. She was so deep in thought that she did not register David in front of her.
"Sel, Sel, Selena baby you ok," David asked.
"Yeah I'm fine shouldn't you be with the others preparing for your mission my love," she said wrapping her arms around his neck and pressing her cheek to his chest.
"Yeah ,Max, mom, well Aura mom and Tracie are trying to find a gateway to the sprit realm," he said.
"Sprit realm?" Selena asked pressing herself deeper into David.
"Yeah its where the eighth stone is," David explained as he felt Selena squeeze him tighter and he felt her warm tears drip onto his tank top. "There, there baby, I'll be back, " he continued as he stroked her hair.
"I worry about you David." Selena said.
"Hey you don't have to worry. Besides if I didn't go dimension hopping we never would've gotten together now would we," David said getting a tearful half smile and a nod from Selena. "I love you, Lena," David said lifting Selena's face so his brown eyes locked with her ocean green ones.
"I love you too, David" she said looking into the chocolate colored eyes she loved so much
"Prove it ," he said giving her a cocky smirk before Selena arched up and kissed him.
"Yo lover boy get geared up and head up stairs we're about to move out," Stina said patting David's shoulder.
"Great you guys found the gateway," David said.
"Yeah now lets move the faster we get there the faster I get wild cat back, now move" she said. as she David Selena and the others went upstairs. "Hey Jewels, Shane you guys coming," Stina asked as she trailed behind the others.
"Bout time we get to go on a mission aye Jewels," Shane said hopping up from his seat with Julie behind him.
Atlan's Fortress:
"My lord the talismans of the dark guard," Girder said as he kneeled before Atlan with a glided box in his hands.
Atlan opened the box and marveled at the five talismans. His wicked ember colored eyes glowed with lust for there power. "Ready the alter Girder we must prepare for the summoning of my army,"
Angel Grove Beach:
The rangers and the other team members a walked along the secluded area of the beach that Aura lead them along not knowing that Tyson followed only a few short miles behind. "Are you sure about this Aura," Talia asked.
"Yes Talia Hawk this is the gateway to the temple," Aura said.
"Umm yeah, about that all I see is water sand and rock," Kal said with a dry tone.
"You need not see everything to know what is in front of you," Aura said. She then formed a triangle like shape over her chest with her fingers and closed her eyes. Then the wind began to blow and a cyclone of water erupted from the ocean then fell into itself and formed into swirling archway. "This is your way into sprit realm, but we must hurry I sense evil approaching," Aura said.
"Right, Tracie you Jewels and Shane cover us the gate will stay open for a few minutes after we go in," David said as he and the others made there way to archway. Just as they crossed into the a group of drones appeared on the beach.
"Great these guys," Julie said
"Well time to see if all that training paid off," Tracie said as she and the remaining team members began to fight off the drones.
The Sprit Realm:
After they passed the gateway the rangers and there mother found themselves in a lush jungle covered in mist and fog. They could feel the presence of hundreds of sprits around them. "Through this path is the temple of the Sprits that is where you must prove yourself worthy of the power," Aura said.
"And just how do we do that," Troia asked.
"All will be answered Troia. The vessel is right about you, you are quite impatient," Aura said as she lead them up the path.
"Wait Max can talk to you," Stina asked.
"Your lover is merely resting Austina," Aura said as she and the others continued the path.
"Well that's good to know how can we be sure that this rest isn't going to kill her," Stina said
"Because her will to come back to you keeps her from harm," Aura said.
Angel Grove Beach:
On the beach Tracie and the others held off the drones as best they could. "Heh these dorks seemed a lot weaker when I was on there side Selena said as she fought off two drones.
"Yeah and way tougher than I thought," Shane said as he dodged a strike from on drone causing it to destroy another one.
Elsewhere on the beach Tracie handle her drones with ease. As she fought she noticed that Julie was backed in a corner. As if on instinct She fired a massive energy blast from her eyes destroying the drones and knocking Julie back into the tide. Tracie then quickly flew over to her to help her. "You ok Jewels," Tracie asked helping her up.
"Yeah Trace but you got me wet. I mean you knocked me into the water... " Julie trailed off before getting cut off by a voice she hated more than anything.
"Well done but you forgot to guard the door. But don't worry I'll tell the others what a good job you did later," Tyson as he walked through the gateway just as it closed.
"No!" Tracie cried.
"Don't worry Trace David and the others can handle him" Shane said.
"Hope you're right Shane'O," Tracie said.
Atlan's fortress:
Atlan stood in the middle of his altar with the five talisman's placed around him. He had waited until the conditions were just right to begin his spell to call forth the corner stones of his dark army. "Powers of darkness and might, I summon thy rise and destroy our enemy come with terror and fright and bring about the long dark night!," Atlan said and with that the five Talisman's floated into mid air and became surrounded by pillars of light. "Now we only wait for the destruction.," he thought to himself as he watched the talismans charge
The Sprit Realm:
After walking for sometime the rangers Aura, and Talia had reached the outside of the temple. "Whoa," Kal said as he and the others marveled at the large stone temple. The temple itself looked as though it belonged in another universe with its high diamond shaped arches
"Its amazing," Troia said.
"Took the words out of my mouth sis," Stina said.
"Ok Aura what's next," David asked.
"You must each press your hands to the crest of your sprit and inside the elders will give you your instructions," Aura said and with that the four rangers placed there hands onto the crest at once causing the large doors to open. The group marveled at the inside of the temple then they heard a voice shake them from there amazement.
"Welcome children of Daxam, I am Illyria and these are the other elders Cordelia, Sahjhan, and Holtz, The woman dressed in in a red and gold robes as she introduced herself and the other woman and two men dressed in similar fashion to her the only exception being the color scheme of the
"The time has come for you the five of you to prove you are worthy of your full powers," Holtz said his yellow and black robe flowing behind him.
"Yes it is the destiny of the five Quasar Knights," Cordelia said.
"Um but there's only four of us and-," Troia started but was cut off as she and the others heard footsteps coming from one of the archways in the temple. The rangers and Talia turned and saw the owner of the foot steps and they froze and became as still as statues.
"Hey guys, mom" E J said, "What's the matter you look like you've seen a ghost well guess you have," he continued.
