"So..." Hathaway said walking down the street with Rey and Tiffany.

"So what?" Rey asked sipping on a Mountain Dew. "Look we know that you like Megan, when are you gonna say something about it?" Tiffany blurted out. Rey spit out the soda instantly. "I don't know what you're talking about." He said laughing awkwardly. Both Tiffany and Hathaway gave him serious stares. "What?" He said. "You're not convincing anyone." Hathaway said. "C'mon. Seriously! Why do you always get like that whenever you like a girl?" Tiffany said. "I get like what?" Rey said playing dumb.

"We have a list." Hathaway said.

"Julissa, Marianna, then there was Rose do NOT get me started on Rose." Tiffany said. "You didn't eat for almost a week." Hathaway said poking at him. "Shaddap!" Rey said slapping his hand away. Tiffany and Hathaway started laughing.

"Its not funny!" Rey said. "Yes it is!" Tiffany said. They continued walking until they were halted by a black hole appearing in front of them. "Guys!" Megan called out running up behind them. She tripped over her own feet and fell bringing down Rey with her in the process. Tiffany sighed while Hathaway facepalmed. Megan quickly jumped back up.

Out of the Black Hole appeared a monster.

(Similar to the balloon monster from Power Rangers Ninja Storm)

The Rangers dropped into defensive positions while Tiffany and Rey stepped out of the way.

"Nova Force-!"

"Lunar Force-!"

They were both cut off by the monster snatching their morphers and throwing them to the floor.

"Ungh!" Hathaway grunted.

"Hehe! Not so strong without your morphers are you now?" It said.

"Oh shut up!" Hathaway shouted getting right back up. He charged at the monster. Megan followed up right behind him. They fought the monster vailantly but they weren't strong enough without their morphers. The monster got ahold of Hathaway and threw him about 20 feet away into a parking lot. He landed on a car and rolled off. As for Megan he tossed her around before knocking her to the floor.

"Aah!" She yelped. "Megan!" Rey shouted running towards the monster. "Rey get back here!" Tiffany shouted. The monster was about to swing when Rey took the hit for Megan. The attack slammed him into the floor. Rey struggled to stand back up. He took several more brutal hits before finally collapsing.

"Humans sure are thick headed fools..." The monster said preparing to strike the final blow.

Just then the monster was taken back by several laser blasts.

"Ugh! Who?" He said looking around. A man stepped forward holding a white blaster. He was wearing some sort of millitary uniform and a red beret.

There was some sort of strange badge on his chest. It glowed a faint pink. "Just who the hell are you?" The monster snarled.

The man did not respond. He simply raised his right arm. "Is that a morpher?" Tiffany said.

"Time for Time Force!" He called out. A large strand of DNA appeared and covered his front. It sunk into his body and was replaced with a bright red light. Once that light faded there he stood. The Red Time Force Ranger. "Chrono Saber!" Said as two swords appeared in his hands. He ran towards the monster hitting it with quick powerful strikes. The monster swung on him but he ducked under it and used both of his swords to wrap(metaphorically speaking) around the monster and throw it over him.

He linked the swords together at the hilt. He slashed left then right before planting the sword into the ground and kicking the monster. The monster tumbled to the floor but stood back up. "Ugh! You'll pay!" He said attempting to strike him with his tentacles. The Ranger jumped up and split the sword. "Time Strike!" He shouted. A crystal red clock surrounded him. He positioned his swords at the 12 and 3 creating a 90 degree angle. He brought up the sword from 3 to 12 and then slashed down. "Aaaagh!" The monster groaned. He sunk to the floor. The Ranger landed just as the monster exploded. He demorphed.

"Whoa..." Rey groaned before passing out. "Rey!" Megan shouted crawling over to him.

The man walked over to them. "We better get him to a hospital." He said picking him up. Hathaway finally made it out of the parking lot and over to the others. "Is he going to be okay?" Megan said staring at the guy who saved her life. "It's hard to say..." He said. "Wait who are you?" Tiffany said coming out of her hiding spot. "Wes Collins and the Red Time Force Ranger as you just saw. But now isn't the time for anything further. Let's go we can take my car." He said heading for a large black truck. The others followed suit.

*-Power Rangers Nova Force!-*

In about 20 minutes they all arrived at the hospital. The others had already made it there as Hathaway had texted Roxy.

"So is he going to be okay?" Avery asked. "Yes, he just has a few broken bones and he suffered a slight concussion. He should regain consciousness within 3 hours."

The doctor said. "Thank you." Wes said turning to face the Rangers.

"So you're the famous Red Time Force Ranger I've heard a lot about when I was younger." Hathaway said. "Weren't you the guy who fought all of those robots by your self back in 2001?" Roxy asked. "That was me." Wes said. "So where are the other Time Force Rangers?" Leonide asked.

"They returned to the future after they captured Ransik." Wes answered. That got Hathaway to thinking. 'What's going to happen when this is all over...?'

Wes spoke. "So I'm assuming you are the new rangers here?" "Yeah The Nova Force Rangers." Rilan said as the others nodded in agreement. "Huh...who would have thought we'd meet a former Ranger here in Ignus City." Blade said.

"Really I was just here to recruit, I never thought I'd actually Ranger up again." Wes said.

"Who would have thought." Zeili said.

"I say we all go out and get something to eat then come back later" Hathaway said.

"Yeah. You coming Megan?" Roxy asked. "No, I'm going to stay here with Rey." She said holding his hand. "Okay I'll bring you back something." Roxy said catching up to the others.

*-PRNF-*

Hours later Wes came back to the hospital where Megan was asleep sitting next to the bed still holding Rey's hand. Seeing that reminded him of how he stayed with Jen the day she was seriously injured.

Rey came to slowly. "Ugh...I feel like I got hit by a bus." His movement woke up Megan. "Rey! You're okay!" She said hugging him tightly.

"If you don't let go I'm going to pass out again!" Rey said between breaths. "Oh!" She said letting the teen loose. "Megan." Wes said stepping into the room. "Yeah?" The clearly tired girl said. "Here go get yourself some coffee." He said handing her 20 dollars. "Thank you..." The girl yawned before stepping out the room.

Rey stared at her leaving it almost seemed like he was saddened.

"Listen." Wes said sitting down. "I don't mean to come in and lecture you like Tommy did to me when I was younger but, that girl...she's the one for you." He said. "How can you be so sure?" Rey said. "I'm saying this from personal experience, don't wait until the last minute to tell her how you feel, it will leave many feelings still unresolved." Wes said holding the badge Jen gave him all of that time ago.

"I just don't know I get so nervous around her. I just feel like she won't return my feelings...I-" Rey stopped abruptly. "You what?" Wes said.

"I know it sounds weird because I haven't known her that long but I think I'm in love with her." Rey said.

Little did he know Megan was right outside listening to the whole conversation.

Wes spoke. "Then you need to tell her. I want you to promise me that you will."

"Uh...yeah I will. But Wes? I need a favor from you a really big favor."

"What is it?" The Co-Captain of the Silver Guardians said. "I want to ask you to stay. Tiffany and could use some help around with the Ranger thing and all." "Gee I dunno. I'd have to see." Wes said. His phone started ringing. "Hold on." Wes said getting up to step out.

Megan ran down the hall and went to turn the corner when she banged her knee on a chair. "Ow! Crap!" She groaned hopping around the corner.

"Hello?" Wes said. "Wes where are you? You were supposed to be back hours ago." The man said. "Listen Eric, I'm gonna need a favor." "And what's that?" The man now know as Eric asked. "I need you to take full control of the Silver Guardians for a bit." "Why?" "Something urgent came up. I'll explain when I come back. Be sure to tell my Dad okay?" He said. After a moments silence he spoke. "Fine Wes...but you owe me...yet again." Eric said.

Wes laugohed. "Thanks man. I'll call you later with updates." He said.

"Yeah sure." Eric said hanging up.

Wes walked back into the room.

"Looks like I can stay." He said.

"Oh thank God. Now I don't have to worry about studying and help saving the world." Rey said.

"Yeah..." Wes said.

'Getting back into the Ranger life huh? This is surely gonna be interesting.'

A/N: Well? How was it? Leave your comments! I specifically chose Wes because of his similarities to Hathaway when it came to being Red Ranger and also due to the fact that he is one of my favorite Red Rangers. Well anyway! The next few chapters will be the Samurai Ranger/ Nova Ranger team up! I'm particularly excited for this! And I've thought of a perfect idea for how it ties into the story! Well don't forget to read and review! Bye :)
