"Two, please," Sora told the waitress.

The waitress showed Sora and his childhood friend Mizuhime to their table. After ordering some drinks and a pizza, they started talking about what they've been up to since they last saw each other.

"So, still thinking of trying for the Olympics?" Sora asked.

"Of course," Mizuhime said. "I'm a great swimmer, after all."

"That you are. I can't count how many times you saved me from drowning when we were kids."

"What about you? Still thinking of being a pilot one day?"

"Maybe. I don't know. Ever since my mom and stepdad got killed, I haven't been thinking of flying much."

"I understand. So, where are you living?"

"Well, the guy who drove off my parents' murderer works for this company, and they offered me a place to stay. After a couple years, I started working for them. They pay well, and at the current rate, I should be able to afford my own place within a month."

Before they could continue their conversation, Sora felt a familiar sensation. And it was coming from…

"Mizuhime, get down!" Sora shouted, tackling her to the floor just when the wall came down. As the dust cleared, Sora saw the familiar form of Mezool. "Mezool? What are you doing here?"

"I have come for that girl," the Greeed said. "Now stand aside, boy."

"What? You mean…?"

"Yes."

"Even if that's not the case, if you want Mizuhime, you're gonna have to go through me."

"Fine by me."

Sora put his Hawk medal in the morpher and morphed. Mizuhime gasped in shock at what she just saw.

"Sora's a… Power Ranger?"

It was just so incredible. Her childhood friend and the man she loved was a Power Ranger.

Sora slashed Mezool with his sword, causing her to lose another medal. Sora grabbed it, and Mezool fled. Just then, the other Rangers arrived on the scene.

"Where's Mezool?" Ryan asked.

"Gone, but on the bright side, the descendent of the blue alchemist has been found," Sora said as he powered down.

"Really?" Stan asked. "Who?"

Sora pointed to Mizuhime, and Katherine sighed.

"Seriously? Your childhood friend is the blue's descendent?"

"Apparently. Trust me, I like it even less than you do."

"Um, what exactly are you guys talking about?" Mizuhime asked.

Sora sighed.

"Let's walk and talk."

So Mizuhime went with them, wondering what was going on.

-At Medals of Desire-

"So, these Greeed things are after the descendants of five alchemists who created these core medals, because they can use the power to destroy them?"

"Exactly, and since Mezool went after you, that means you're the Blue Alchemist's descendant, and therefore can use the blue medals, which hold the power of marine animals."

"Awesome. I'm gonna be a Power Ranger."

"We're gonna need all the help we can get. I've got a bad feeling. Like… something's coming. Something… big. Something… that will be near impossible to beat."

The other Rangers looked at each other with looks that said 'Oh, man.'

so, not bad, huh? nice career plans for the childhood friends huh? bet y'all are wondering what that something is, huh? well, you'll find out real soon. within the next couple chapters.
