ACT TWENTY - Origins
-Previously-
The rangers fell on the clubhouse floor, this startled the mentors and three college kids there. Bay ran over to Sam, she helped him up. He looked at her with a smile on his face as she helped him up. Ethan knelt down next to Alex but made it look like he wasn't there for her. Emi walked over and looked at them, followed by the mentors.
"Looks like everything went well." Dean said.
Alex chuckles, "Yeah something like that." She said.
Delia stands up fully, "The ranger and her team is fine. The Gardios that targeted them are defeated." Delia said.
Abigail crossed her arms on her chest, "Good. Job well done." Abigail said.
Sam looks to Bay, "Anything happen while we were gone?" He asks.
Bay sighs, "There were a couple of attacks. It was done by the same guy." She said.
Ethan rubbed the back of his neck, "Yeah he was too strong for us."
Emi pouts, "I could have been helpful." She mutters.
Abigail turns to Emi, "That's too dangerous for you." Abigail said.
Alex looks at the mentors more seriously, "What are we dealing with?"
Abigail pulled up the image of the person, "It seems a human male who has been corrupted by the Gardios power." Abigail said, "I haven't seen this happen before."
"We have." Adrian said.
Ellie nods.
"What?" Dean spoke.
"Why are we now hearing about this?" Abigail asks.
Ellie awkwardly smirks, "We really didn't have time to tell you. If that guy is who I think it is, its the same person who was corrupted six months ago." Ellie said.
Bay looks at Ellie, "And who would that be?" She asks.
Ellie frowns as she stares at the image, the image looked less human and more of a hybrid. Ellie felt Adrian place a hand on her shoulder.
"Ellie?" Ethan spoke.
"That is my ex boyfriend, Kyle Harper." Ellie spoke.
-Now-
"Wait- That monster is your ex boyfriend?" Bay walks over.
Ellie looks at the image and kept a frown on her face. Adrian looks at her with a concern expression as he kept his hand placed on her shoulder, she looked at Adrian and had a small smile for his way of comfort.
"Six months ago," Ellie started, "It was the next of the last semester and well finals were over. Most of the students were either heading home or going to the parties afterwards, which is where it all began."
Alex looks at Ellie, "Where what began?"
Adrian and Ellie looked at one an other, "Where we got our morphers and became rangers."
-MYSTICKNIGHTS-
-Six Months Ago-
Walking out of the lecture hall was a newly turned twenty year old, Ellie. She snapped a photo with her camera and sprinted out of the building, where she saw her boyfriend waiting for her. A small smile appeared on her face as she walked over to him.
"Kyle," She says.
Kyle had curly brown hair, brown eyes, slight tan complexion, tall, muscular, and was a twenty year old as well. He was wearing a white tank top, khakis shorts, white tennis shoes, and a flat brim hat backwards.
"Hey, babe." He leaned down to kiss her.
Ellie pulled out her camera and snapped a picture.
Kyle made a face, "Are you going to continue to take picture like a weirdo?" He asks.
Ellie made a pout look, "I am just making memories." She said.
Kyle chuckles to himself, "Fine whatever. It's just weird, but if you like taking pictures, I guess its okay." He said.
Kyle and Ellie held hands and smiled at each other, they were walking over to Kyle's surfer friends. They were talking about a party on the beach later that night, Ellie could care less about a party but she was going for Kyle.
"This party is going to be sick." One of Kyle's friends said.
Kyle nods, "Right! After tonight we have a couple of weeks off and no school." He said turning to Ellie.
Ellie held a smile, "Right." She said.
As the group were talking among themselves, a guy bumped into Ellie's shoulder as he passed her. She stumbled back due to how much larger this person was compared to Ellie, once she gained her balance she saw who had bumped into her. It was Adrian, he was in her history class and he hasn't really spoken to many people on campus.
Kyle turned to his girlfriend and now Adrian, "Hey watch it! You hit my girlfriend!" Kyle yells.
Ellie touches Kyle's arm, "I'm- I'm fine." She said.
Kyle and his friends ganged up against Adrian, "Say your sorry!" Kyle shouted.
Adrian raised his eyebrow and then glanced down at Ellie, "Sorry." He muttered and walked off.
Adrian didn't stop when Kyle and his group were shouting at him, he did glance back at Ellie. Ellie looked at him, the two made eye contact but then he broke it as he continued to walk away. She kept looking in that direction but snapped out of it when she felt Kyle touch her shoulders.
"You okay, babe?" Kyle asks.
Ellie nods, "Uh huh."
-Present-
Ellie wandered to the beach. She sat down on the sand and let out a deep breathe. She looked at the sun in the distance. She was alone, or she thought she was alone. Wandering over was Rowan. He wore normal clothes to look like a human, like wearing a beanie to cover his pointy ears.
"Ellie," Rowan spoke.
Ellie turns around and smiles, "Rowan." She said.
Rowan sits next to her, "Are you okay?" He asks, "I heard from Adrian about Kyle."
Ellie nods and plays with the sand, "I always knew he'd come back but I just pictured it as guilt for letting it happen." She said.
Rowan shakes his head, "It wasn't your fault and you know it." He told her.
Ellie glanced at him, "But-."
Rowan holds onto the human knight's hand, "I was in the wrong place. I was the reason Kyle was turned corrupt, because me and Lloyd were there. It's when everything started." Rowan said.
Ellie looks at the young Gardios and then hugs him, "I can never hate you."
-MYSTICKNIGHT-
Adrian was leaving the clubhouse when the others stopped him.
"What?" Adrian spoke, "I'm going to look for Ellie."
Sam nods, "Yes but she just said how it all started six months ago and ran off."
Adrian turns to them, "She has guilt about what happened to Kyle. Its something she isn't proud of." He said.
Alex walks over, "But it isn't her fault." She said.
Ethan looks from Alex to Adrian, "Is it?"
Adrian shakes his head, "It isn't. It- It just happened." Adrian said.
Delia nods, "Well if you're going after her," She looks at the others, "We're coming too."
Adrian made a face.
"We're a team, so get use to it." Bay smirked.
Adrian sighs, "Fine."
-Six Months Ago-
On the beach Adrian wandered through the crowd of the party. He wasn't originally going to the beach party, but some girl convinced him otherwise. As Adrian wander through to find the drinks, she spotted Ellie. Ellie was standing alone with a drink in her hands. He takes a drink and walks over to the lonely girl.
"Where is that boyfriend of yours?" Adrian asks.
Ellie looks at Adrian, "Over there. He is requesting the YMCA. Kyle is such a dork." She smiles.
Adrian nods, "I see that."
Ellie turns to him, "Um- sorry about him and his friends, they're kind of protective." She said.
Adrian takes a sip of his drink, "Ah no big deal." Adrian said.
Ellie takes a small sip of her drink, "I never pictured you as a party person." She smirked.
"You either," He said, "I mean I didn't even think you had a boyfriend. It's always you and that camera."
Ellie had a small smile, "My dad gave me this camera."
Adrian had a small smile, "That's nice." He said.
"He gave it to me after my- my mom died in a hostage situation when I was a kid." She said.
"Oh," Adrian was picking at the wrapper on the bottle, "I'm sorry."
Ellie shakes her head, "It's okay. I've always been a loner so the camera helped give me some space, my dad gave me the camera to be able to see the world through my eyes. So I tend to overtake photos." She said.
"How does a loner like yourself get a boyfriend?" Adrian asks.
Ellie glanced at him, "You jealous?"
He shakes his head as he takes a sip.
"We met our senior year of high school. He went to a prep school and I went to public school, it was just some dumb luck that I was at the local park and he was there. We started talking and then somehow we ended up in a relationship." Ellie said.
He takes another sip, "Well good luck with this relationship. I hope it works out." He said.
Ellie looks at him, "We've been dating for two years." She said.
Adrian shrugs, "Well then hopefully you'll have more." He said.
Ellie takes a small sip, "What about you? You know my story? What's yours?" She asks.
Adrian sighs, "Really?"
Ellie pouted, "Its okay fair." She said.
"I too came from a prep school," He started, "My parents has a lot of money. I left school at eighteen to join the military, but I did get my GED while I was off in basic and what not. Due to my family name and their connections I joined the high ranks relatively quickly. Though I left after a few months, it wasn't for me. Too much work." He said.
Ellie turns to him, "Did you ever work for anything in your entire life?" She asks.
Adrian glares at her, "This."
"College? This is the only thing you're doing for yourself?" She asks,
He nods, "Shut up. Yes, I am the stereotype of the rich kid." He said.
Ellie smirks, "Your words not mine." She lightly giggles.
Adrian looks at her, "Whatever." He glares away.
Ellie looks up at him, "Well, since you obviously came here alone, do you want to hang with my boyfriend and his friends?" She asks.
Adrian looks at her a bit surprised, "Uh- nah, I'll be around." He began to walk off.
Ellie nods as she watched him walk off, "It was nice talking to you, Adrian."
Adrian turns around to look at Ellie and held a gentle smile, "It was nice talking to you too, Ellie." He said.
-Present-
Rowan and Ellie sat on the beach. They were alone, and it was nice. Although, something made a sound behind them. Ellie and Rowan turned around to see a large blue skinned and red eyed monster. It had sharp fangs and roared to make himself seem more terrifying.
Ellie stood up with tears in her eyes, "K- Kyle,"
The beast roared again and began to charge at them, Rowan looked at Ellie. He grabbed the knight and he tackled her to the ground, the two laid there as the corrupt man ran pass where they had just stood. Ellie looks at the beast. Rowan grabbed Ellie's hand.
"We need to get to safety." Rowan said.
Ellie shakes her head, "No," She turns to him, "You get to safety. I'll handle him."
Rowan goes to plead but sees the beast coming back, "Ellie-!"
"Mythical Force! Mystic Knights!" Ellie quickly morphed.
As the beast came closer to them, he was stopped by a sword blocking the claws he possessed on his hands. The beast growled at the white knight, but it didn't stop Ellie. Rowan slowly stood up and looked at what was happening.
'Rowan! Get to safety!' Ellie spoke through her mind.
Rowan looks at her. He nods and takes off running to safety. Rowan had one last look at Ellie began he grabbed his own jewel and cut a hole in the dimensions to hide from the beast and stay safe. Ellie glanced back to see Rowan was gone and safe. She pushed the beast back.
"Kyle! It's me! Eleanor!" Ellie screams.
The beast growls again.
Ellie tried to keep herself calm, "Please-."
The beast went to slash his claws at her but was met with a gold beam of energy hitting him. The beast was sent flying back into the ocean. Ellie turned around to see Adrian and the others running over all suit up. Adrian quickly hugged Ellie, due to their history and their bond together he was glad she was alright.
"It's him, isn't it?" Adrian asks.
Ellie nods.
Alex, Delia, Ethan, Sam, and Bay got their swords out and charged at the beast the second he began to run toward them. Bay and Delia slashed together, one hitting the front and the other getting him before behind. The beast grabbed Delia by her wrist and tossed her into the ocean, which was his dumb fault. Ethan and Sam were slashing their blades together and Alex came in with Bay as he back up. As the beast growled sent them back slightly, the beast did not expect what was going to happen next.
A large amount of water hit the beast and sent him hard onto the sand, popping out of the ocean was Delia. She stood on top of the water and ran back into the fighting while launching water balls at the beast. The beast did its best to dodge the water, but it sent him back slightly.
Ethan glanced at Delia and had a smirk underneath his helmet. With a snap of the fingers fire appeared hovering above the hand of the Green Ranger. The others were a bit shocked, but not Bay. It was obvious that there was some training that those two got while the others were away.
"How did you learn that?" Sam asks.
Ethan grins, "My power buddy." He said referring to Emi.
Ethan went charging in with his fire balls being thrown at the beast, which the beast growled in pain from the attack. The beast growled at the knights coming toward him, Ethan and Delia were sent back slightly and yet still stand.
Bay shrunk down to the size of a fairy, flew over then resized to normal size for a surprise attack. She landed on the back of the beast and slashed her sword at him, the beast roared at that. However, he grabbed the Pink Ranger and tossed her over his shoulder. Sam noticed this, he turned into a cheetah, ran over to catch Bay. As she was coming near the ground, he turned into sea lion for a more comfortable landing. When Bay landed, the Yellow Ranger had then turned back to human.
Bay smiles, "Thanks for catching me."
"No problem." He said.
Alex and Adrian stepped in next. The two glanced at one an other and then charged in. Alex and Adrian were using their swords first, which seemed to do something but then the beast slashed at the Gold and Red Knight sending them back. Alex and Adrian stumbled back up to their feet. Adrian sees the beast coming over and had little time to react, so using his energy manipulation power he created a shield around himself and Alex.
The beast continued to hit his fists against the shield, over and over again. Alex held her hands out trying to stop him, but the beast had more going for him. As Alex pushed and tried to keep the beast at bay with her telepath ability, somehow the beast broke through and smashed the shield. This caused a powerful force to hit Adrian and Alex, the two collapse onto the ground. The beast stood over them and about to finish the job when he was then stopped.
"Kyle! Stop!" It was Ellie.
The beast stopped, the beast turned around to see Ellie wasn't in her suit. She was staring at the beast and the beast was staring at her back. Ellie looked at Adrian, and then to the beast. She held a small smile on her face.
"It's okay," Ellie says, "I'm here."
The beast goes to charge at Ellie. Adrian stumbles to get up. Ellie kept her expression calm and tried not to freak out.
"Ellie-!" Adrian shouts.
The beast stops inches from her face. She looked up at him, the beast looks down at her. Looking at her with confusion on those red eyes. Ellie watched as the beast circles around her, looking at her. Then the beast stops in front of Ellie.
"El- El- Ellie." The beast spoke.
A small tear slid down Ellie's face, "Hi, Kyle." She said.
The beast shakes his head, "No. No. No." The beast grabs a hold of his head.
Ellie reached over and touched the beast's arms, "Hey. Hey. It's me, you're okay." She said.
The beast looks at Ellie. His eyes changed to brown then switched back to red again, he growled and then smacked Ellie away from him. She landed on the ground, rolled slightly but remain unconscious. The beast went to walk over to her, but Adrian was already on his feet. He threw another energy beam at him, but it wasn't as powerful as the other one was.
"Leave her alone!" Adrian shouts.
The beast turns to the Gold Knight, "A- Ad- Adrian?"
Adrian powered down and looks at the beast, "Yeah."
The beast seemed more angry and began to charge at Adrian. Alex looks up and screams Adrian's name, as the others stumble to stand as the beast charges at the Gold Knight Ranger.
-Six Months Ago-
Ellie and Kyle slow danced as the party went on. It was getting late and Ellie was tired, but Kyle wanted to stay a little bit longer. After that dance, Ellie walked over to the drinks and noted how there were less people there but still some there. She grabbed a slightly warm drink and opened it.
'I can't believe Kyle is even dating that freak,'
Ellie turns around and saw someone nearby, "Who said that?" Ellie asks.
'Kyle is so dreamy,'
Ellie turned around looking to see who said that.
'I wonder if my English professor would date me?'
Ellie ran a hand through her hair, she looks around and then spotted Adrian. He had a pale look on his face, she seemed to be the only one to notice him. To which, the next thing that happened was a golden energy beam escape from his hands. Ellie's eyes widen.
'What the hell? Since when could I do that?'
Ellie knew that voice, it was Adrian. Ellie made her way through the remaining people at the party. Hearing more voices than she remembered and reached Adrian. He turned to her after a small energy sword was made but it faded the moment he saw Ellie. He saw her sweaty face and paled skin.
"You okay?" Adrian asks.
Ellie looks at him, "What was that you just did?" She asks.
He looks from his hands to her, "I don't know."
Ellie nods, "I heard what you said. So this is new for you?"
"You heard what I said? I didn't say anything I was just thinking-." He stopped himself.
Ellie realized it too and covered her mouth, "That's why there are voices in my head."
"Ellie?" Adrian seemed concerned now.
Before anything else could be said, there was an explosion. Which caused people to run. Appearing a man in a yellow suit of armor holding a sword in hands. Ellie gasped and Adrian stood in front of her as a way of protecting her. Kyle and his friends began to panic as well as the others.
"Rowan, watch carefully." The knight spoke, "This is how we mess with humanity."
He pointed at Kyle and then a jolt of electricity hit Kyle, his friends ran to the boy in concern. Even Ellie, she pushed passed Adrian and ran to her boyfriend. As she ran over, she watched his skin change to blue and his eyes become red. His body became to change shapes and get larger. Fangs coming out of his teeth and claws where his nails were. Ellie stopped in her track.
"K- Kyle?" Ellie spoke.
The now beast version of Kyle roared and began to destroy things. Ellie looked at the monster attacking the party, she glanced over at the small boy standing next to the knight. He looked different than anyone she had ever seen before.
'I'm so sorry,' She heard him speak to her.
'You hear me?' She thought.
The boy nods, 'I am Rowan,'
'Ellie,' She spoke.
'You and that guy you were just with are heroes, are knights that are sent to protect humanity.' He said through thoughts.
'Protect from who?' She thought.
'Us,' Rowan said through thought.
-MYSTICKNIGHTS-
-Present-
Adrian stood in shock seeing as the beast was stopped, he didn't expect it though. Alex had indeed stopped the beast, which didn't surprise him. The out of suit Alex held her hands out, she groaned as she tried her best to keep a hold of the beast.
"Adrian-! Move!" Alex yells.
Adrian turns to her, "Alex?"
"Now! I can't hold him forever!" Her voice was in pain and he saw blood coming out of her nose.
Adrian moves out of the way, and within a few seconds her hold of him dropped. The beast ran and then stopped turning to Adrian. The rest of the rangers helped Alex and then went to Adrian and Ellie. They all stand, staring at the beast. Adrian carried Ellie on his back and looked at the beast.
"Kyle! You know she felt guilty about what happened to you!" Adrian shouted.
The beast growls.
"She loved you and she had to watch you become this!" Adrian screamed.
The beast breathed deeply.
Bay held onto Sam's hand, he looked at her and held onto her hand back tightly.
"You need to stop this! If not because I'm asking but do it for her! And if you can't for her then for your parents, who think you're missing or worst dead!" Adrian yells.
Delia looks at the expression on Adrian's face. She watched as how he held onto Ellie on his back.
"She still has all those photos she took with you! She showed me! She's told me!" Adrian yells.
Alex and Ethan share a glance at each other and then back to the situation at hand.
"Just- please stop." Adrian said softer.
Ellie began to regain conscious and looked in front of her, "Kyle-?"
The beast's eyes changed back to brown, "Ellie?"
The skin began to change back to normal and his body began to change back to normal. The young man returned to his normal form only in a pair of shorts, much like how a reverse Hulk. Ellie watched Kyle return to normal, she looked at him and he looked from his own body to Ellie.
Ellie got off of Adrian's back and walked over, Kyle looked at her and held a small smile. He then hugged her tightly.
"I'm so sorry," Ellie said.
Kyle held onto her tightly, "It's not your fault." He looked up at Adrian and mouthed, thank you, to him.
Adrian smiled slightly.
Adrian felt a hand on his shoulder, it was Delia's hand. Then he turned to see the others looking at him with smiles on their faces.
"Good job, Adrian." Alex said.
Adrian nods.
-MYSTICKNIGHTS-
A limo was parked by the curb. The trunk opened and Kyle was putting his things in the trunk. Ellie and the others were with him. Kyle turned to see her expression, he walked over and held a smile before turning to the limo driver.
"Can I have a moment?" Kyle asks.
The limo driver nods.
Kyle walks over to Ellie and kisses her on the cheek, "Thank you for saving me."
Ellie smiles, "You're welcome."
"Before you even read my mind," He grins, "Yes I have to go."
Ellie frowns, "But- I just got you back." She said.
Kyle lifts her chin up, "I know but this isn't my life anymore. I've been gone for a long time and I need to figure things out. See my parents would be a good thing, I know they are worried sick." Kyle said.
Ellie nods.
"Besides," He points to the others, "I don't think you need me around."
Ellie smiles faintly, "Yeah."
Kyle pokes her camera, "One last picture?" He asks.
A single tear slid down her face, "Yeah. Of course." She smiles.
Ellie held up the camera and took a picture with Kyle, one last time. The two looked at each other before Kyle gave her one last hug goodbye. Ellie watched Kyle get into the limo and the driver took off. Ellie watched the limo leave. As she did, she felt someone hold onto her hand. She knew it without even reading their mind or turning around.
"Thank you, Adrian." Ellie said.
"I'll always be there for you." Adrian said, "I am your partner."
(A/N: Even though on my Galactic Storm recent update I said I probably wasn't going update again soon, but I decided to write again. I originally feel guilty to write when it just my mom and I because if I isolate myself to my writing I usually stay alone for hours. She said it was alright and she gets that I need my space, which is cool on her end.
Anyways back to the work here. This was suppose to be a two part chapters, but I decided that it was better this way. If it were two parts they'd likely be short chapters and probably would equal to the same length as this totally. I realized that there wasn't the explanation to the skin changing and eye color changing in this chapter, but in the next one there will be. I just wanted to focus on Adrian and Ellie's "origin" story.
I really think this is my favorite chapter, I just love Ellie and Adrian so much. In the beginning I wasn't sure where I was going with them in the first chapter but now I just love them as characters. They've grown a bit and from the flashbacks, Adrian kind of has grown a bit.
When I did a recent update for Galactic Storm I mentioned how next update would be Mystic Knights and then Monster Hunters, so when I update next it'll be Monster Hunters. If you don't read Galactic Storm or Monster Hunters, check it out! Also there is a poll on my page asking you guys which of my Power Ranger series is your favorite, you can vote two series. Anyways, until next time. -ICrzy)
