Green with Rage Chapter 25: Happy Birthday, Neve!: Part I, a power rangers fanfic

A/N: So here is Chapter 25, and the songs used in this chapter are Eternal flame by the bangles but I like the version by Human Nature better and Candice Accola from the Vampire Diaries. Unfortunately Caroline's version is in the show and not the complete song. Anyways the other one is Your the Reason by Victoria Justice. So I hope you guys are in for a twisty chapter, though it doesn't get action packed till the end and chapter 26. Anyways I am sorry it took so long to post but it was kicking my ass and I didn't know what to write but I got over six thousand words so I think it was worth the wait.

Green with Rage

Chapter 25: Happy Birthday, Neveah! Part I.

Reefside, California;

April 14th, 2011:

A few weeks passed for the Dino Rangers, and now the day that they had been waiting on for days now had arrived. To their shock it almost seemed as if Neveah had forgotten. They didn't really blame her, it had been a long month. The most notable happenings was the arrival of Tiernan. At first no one but Tommy and Kim seemed to trust the clone turned human. Trent and he had many talks and though it wasn't really known so did Kim, Tommy and Tiernan. It was the reason the three had such a easy time trusting the formerly evil clone.

Of course the appearance of the Gold Ranger and gem was a shock as well. No one had any idea how the gold gem had come into being, but Neve did. She was sure the spirit she had felt that day was Zordon and she had an inkling that he was the reason for the gold gem. It had taken a bit longer but eventually Kira had begun to trust Tiernan with the encouragement of Neve who had almost always trusted the now human clone – even though Hunter really did not like Tiernan much to Neve's annoyance. With Kira came Conner and since everyone else had begun to get to know the Gold Ranger now known as Tiernan Mercer, Ethan had as well.

It was almost like he had always been there now. Neve's month had been much busier other then getting to know Tiernan – who was not as much of a pervert as he seemed when evil and not completely human – and she found she really liked him. If it was not for her already being in love with Hunter she thought there might be something there for them but of course she cared for Tiernan as only a close friend, but she just couldn't find it in her to have platonic feelings for Trent's clone. It didn't matter though, she loved Hunter and that was all she need to know.

But that aside she had been so busy with school, her friends, Ranger business and going tot he now rebuilt – almost completely – Spirit Academy to help Sensei Hikari train the other Spirit Ninja's and complete her training which was going just as easily and fast as ever. She had been worked she had forgotten what today meant. Today was her fifteen Birthday.

"Does she even realize what today is?" Tiernan asked as he leaned on the bar in Hayley's cafe. The others all shook their head as they watched Neve get ready for her set. She was sitting on a stool sipping on a water as she waited for the band – which was Kira's she just borrowed it for her sets – finished setting up.

"Not even a little," Conner said and smirked.

"Makes it easier for us to surprise her thought, right?" Ethan asked and Kira nodded.

"Definitely, I thought we'd never be able to pull it off, it's almost like she see's everything," Kira said and Trent and Tiernan snorted in unison making the other three look at them in slight shock and discomfort. They still were not used to the almost twin like movement.

"She doesn't see everything..." Tiernan began and Trent nodded finishing for his 'twin'.

"She just sees enough." Trent then smiled and pointed lazily at the stage before speaking. "Hey, look she's beginning."

Each of them looked over and sure enough she was beginning the set, motioning for the band to begin with a three count. It was soft song, and Hayley seemed to recognize it as she came to listen.

Close your eyes, give me your hand, darling
Do you feel my heart beating, do you understand?
Do you feel the same, am I only dreaming?
Is this burning an eternal flame?

It wasn't until until the first verse was over that Kira realized it was an cover of an older song by the bangles and covered by the Atomic Kittens. Kira smiled and moved into Conner's side as the song continued.

I believe it's meant to be, darling
I watch when you are sleeping, you belong to me
Do you feel the same, am I only dreaming
Or is this burning an eternal flame?

Say my name, sun shines through the rain
A whole life so lonely, and then you come and ease the pain
I don't want to lose this feeling

There was a rather long solo before Neve stood up and began to sing slightly faster and louder. Most couples had begun to sway as they crowded the stage.

Say my name, sun shines through the rain!
A whole life, so lonely, and then you come and ease the pain.
I don't want to lose this feeling!

Close your eyes and give me your hand
Do you feel my heart beating, do you understand?
Do you feel the same, am I only dreaming
Or is this burning an eternal flame?

Just as the next solo break came they all saw that Neve's eyes freeze on the door as the former Ninja Rangers came into the door, and she smiled at Hunter waving a bit as she finished the song.

Is this burning an eternal flame?

An eternal flame?

(Close your eyes and give me your hand
Do you feel my heart beating, do you understand?
Do you feel the same, am I only dreaming
Or is this burning an eternal flame?)

As the song ended Neve laughed, grinning happily.

"Thank you guys, I'll be back after a little break, promise," she said into the mic and leaped of the stage and ran to her boyfriend, jumping into his arms, her legs wrapping around his waist as she wrapped her arms around his neck and leaned back to smile at him. The Dino teens all laughed at their friends antic and Tiernan smiled but his eyes gave his pain away.

He really did have feelings for the Green Parasaurolophus Ranger and Trent had been a confident when it came to this. It amazed Tiernan how trusting and forgiving the White Ranger could be when it came to him. He had tried to kill them for months and had been anything but kind to the White clad boy. Shaking his head the Gold Ranger pasted a smile on his face and went about what he always did and ignored his feelings and instead put up the act of being nothing but happy and amused with Neve's actions. He wanted Neveah happy first and foremost even if it wasn't with him.

"Hi, Handsome. I didn't know you were coming today," she said and then kissed him before unwrapping her legs and Hunter held her waist as she dropped to the ground. She smiled coyly knowing what her action probably put her poor Hunter's hormones through but she couldn't feel anything but amusement and some pity as she held back a laugh. Hunter smirked, and inwardly rolled his eyes at his girlfriends ability to forget the simplest things with a photographic memory.

"We thought we'd surprise you, actually I think it's a trend today," Hunter said as he jerked his head at the door as her parents and several others entered. Neve squealed and practically bounced over to hug her Aunt Trini, and Uncle Jason before moving on to Andros, Ashley, Karone and Zhane – though she had not really met them except for when she was evil. The four Rangers laughed at the happiness in the girl they were pretty much meeting for the first time.

"Hi Neve, it's great to see your back to normal," Karone said as she grinned at the girl and Neve smiled back but they all saw the look in the girls eyes. It was the same look they had seen in Tommy's and Karone saw in her own eyes.

"So am I, I'm also sorry about all of that. If I hurt any of you badly..." Neve trailed of awkwardly and Karone and Ashley's features faded into that of a maternal mask and they pulled the young girl into a group hug making every smile.

"Oh honey, you didn't hurt us," Ashley told the Green Ranger as they pulled back and Neve smiled, her eyes sparkling. It was then she noticed the two girls standing together looking up at her, one was Julie the other she had not seen before. She was much younger then Julie, two or three with long blonde hair in two braids and big blue eyes which just made Neve's heart melt.

"Hi, I'm Neveah, who are you?" Neve asked as she knelt down and the little blond let go of Julie's hand and held out her arms and Neve chuckled and picked the girl up.

"I'm Katerina, your pretty," the child said giggling and Neve blushed slightly as the Adults watched with smiles.

"Hi Kitty Kat, I'm Neve. It's nice to meet you, and I think your prettier," Neve replied and and the girl giggled and hid her face in Neve's neck. Kimberly smiled and Tommy shared a look with his wife. Another year older, he was slowly loosing his little girl, and he knew before long she would be grown and living her life, probably with Hunter by her side.

"Oh, you guys haven't met our new Ranger, Tiernan," Neve said and with Katerina still in her arms she walked over to the bar where her fellow teammates still stood and everyone blinked as they looked between the teen in White and the one in Gold. Besides the fact the one in Gold had longer black hair and a more rouged look about him they would have thought he was Trent.

"Okay, I didn't know Trent was a twin," Karone said and they all laughed – except for Andros, Ashley and Zhane of course.

"No, Tiernan is Trent's clone. He used to be the White Ranger Clone but he's human now. His gem suddenly changed colors on us, though how is a mystery," Tommy said and Julie blinked before going over to Hunter and holding up her arms. Trini and Jason raised an eyebrow. Hunter looked down at her and smiled slightly and hesitantly leaned down to puck up the eight year old – soon to be nine – that was no taller then his waist – not quite but close enough and the girl smiled. Neve looked over and smirked, Julie had most likely gotten jealous of the time Neve had paid to Katerina and was trying to get her own attention even if it was with Hunter.

"I see, Welcome then Tiernan. I'm Andros, this is my wife Ashley and this is my sister Karone and her husband Zhane." Tiernan smiled at the Red Space Ranger and shook his hand.

"Thanks, I'm glad to be here," he replied and the Hayley walked over.

"Neve, it's time for your next song," Hayley said and Neve bit her lip before handing Katerina to Karone who smiled at the girl.

"I've gotta go, I'll see ya after the song." Neve kissed her mother and father on the cheek and then walked over to Hunter and kissed him chastely, mindful that Julie was still in his arms, attacked to his left side.

"This one is for you Handsome," she whispered to him though she knew Julie had heard and maybe even some of the other closest to him before she clapped hands with Shane as she passed to get on stage.

"Did she really forget her birthday or is she faking us out?" Dustin asked and they all sighed.

"She really has forgotten," Tori said shaking her head and Kim chuckled.

"Like father like daughter," she said smirking and Tommy chuckled and smiled puffing his chest out slightly with pride.

"So how far along are you?" Kira asked as she looked at the Yellow Space Ranger and the former Yellow Saber-Tooth Tiger Ranger. Both looked at the Yellow Ptera Ranger in shock and the others blinked and stared at her too.

"Huh?" almost everyone muttered as Ashley and Trini blushed slightly and Jason and Andros beamed in pride.

"Four months for me, we're hoping for a boy," Trini said smiling and Ashley chuckled.

"I'm only three months, give or take. How did you know?" Ashley asked and Kira grinned.

"It's a sixth sense I've always had. My cousin, Kayla had a baby a year ago and I was the one who pointed out she was pregnant, almost two weeks before her missed period. I just seem to know," Kira said shrugging. The others shrugged as well, they were Power Ranger, it wasn't near as weird as some things they'd seen. They all turned to watch the stage as upbeat music with almost a bit of a techno felling to it began as Neve moved with the music and began to sing.

I don't want to make a scene
I don't want to let you down
Try to do my own thing
And I'm starting to figure it out
That it's alright
Keep it together wherever we go
And it's alright, oh well, whatever
Everybody needs to know

You might be crazy
Have I told you lately that I love you?
You're the only reason that I'm not afraid to fly
And it's crazy that someone could change me
Now no matter what it is I have to do, I'm not afraid to try
And you need to know that you're the reason why

"Well she has you pegged bro," Blake said smirking referring to the beginning of the chorus and Hunter glared as he put Julie down, his arm practically numb from holding her so long. Julie laughed and ran forward before anyone could stop her and got on stage with Neve who simply laughed slightly and began to dance with the girl as she sang.

I don't even care when they say
You're a little bit off
Look me in the eye, I say
I could never get enough
'Cause it's alright
Keep it together wherever we go
And it's alright, oh well, whatever
Everybody needs to know

Neve smiled and winked at Hunter as she finished up the song as Trini had approached the stage and gotten Julie just a moment before as the second time through the chorus ended.

If it was raining, you would yell at the sun
Pick up the pieces when the damage is done
You say it's just another day in the shade
But look at what a mess we made

xXx

"Okay, where are we going?" Neve asked after Hunter and she had gotten done with the mall. Usually it took her so much to get him to go with her but today he seemed almost too happy to go with her. Like they wanted her gone for a period of time but she couldn't think of any reason why as she looked up at her boyfriend as they walked. Hunter looked down at her and smiled, a mischievous sparkle in his blue eyes and her breathe caught before she mentally shrugged.

"I told you, the park," he said and she narrowed her eyes.

"Why?" she asked and Hunter chuckled as she held her two bags worth of clothes – a record for the least shopping bags in one go for her – and shook his head.

"I can't tell you, actually once we get so far I'm gonna have to blind fold you," he replied and she leaned back faking being offended a hand over her heart and Hunter smirked, knowing it was an act.

"Excuse me?" She laughed and smirked at him coyly. "How kinky of you Hunter, I never knew," she laughed harder as his face went blank and she knew he was probably thinking something not so PG rated and then Hunter let out a breathe.

"Don't do that to me Neve, are you trying to kill me?" he asked and pulled her into his side where she laid her head on his shoulder.

"May-be," she said drawing out the two syllables. As they entered the park and got a certain area Hunter stopped and got in front of her and brought out a green and pink blind fold with little crimson stars. She looked at it her mouth dropped open slightly before she looked back to Hunter.

"You were serious?" she breathed out and he chuckled and nodded before she rolled her eyes.

"This better be for a good cause Hunt, or I'm gonna kick you where the sun doesn't shine," she said half joking as Hunter blanched before tying the blind fold over her eyes and she could see nothing but the fabric and black. She felt Hunter take her two bags and then lead her over the found as she clung to him, not wanting to trip or fall. She soon heard chuckles and giggles as they came to a stop a few minutes latter.

"Okay Neve, you ready?" she heard Hunter asked and she rolled her eyes.

"Just take this thing off me Hunter, I don't like being blind," she said pouting and more laughter echoed before she felt the blind fold fall away and she gasped. Around her at a picnic table was a large area set up like a birthday party. It held balloons in pretty much Pink, Green and Purple but with many other Ranger colors thrown in, like a Ranger rainbow and she looked to Tori and the other Ninja's who were trying to look innocent. She was not going to go through all the Ranger colors – at least she hoped not.

There was a pink and crimson table cloth over the table and party hats along with food – Pizza, chips, and then the deserts. Cookies with little icing dinosaurs on them – courtesy of Trent – and a chocolate and peanut butter pie which she knew was made by her mother since it was her favorite desert. In the Center of the table was a large birthday cake with pink frosting and in green and purple it had, 'Happy Birthday, Neve!' in handwriting she didn't recognize but from Karone's smile she was sure it had been homemade by the woman.

Next to the cake was a bucket of ice cream – the kind of with strawberry, vanilla and chocolate in it. On the ground on a blanket beside the table was a pile of presents and she smiled as she saw the two poles holding a banner up which pretty much said the same thing as her cake and had colored hand prints on it in respective Ranger colors and their names under the hand print. She even saw Katerina and Julie's hand prints – ironically they had chosen to use Yellow and Purple, Yellow for Katerina and Purple for Julie. She briefly wondered if that meant anything or if she was looking to far into it.

"It's...I can't believe I forgot it was my birthday!" Neve exclaimed as she smiled and hugged everyone as she bounced around and then as she stared at the food her stomach growled and they all laughed as she looked down and blushed.

"Looks like the birthday girl is hungry," Tori said teasingly and Kira laughed nodding.

"Yep, so who wants to eat?" Kira asked and it seemed to be the magic word as 'me' resounded around the group and they dug into the five boxes of large pizza's. Not to mention the five more on it's way – one thing the girls knew that with four red, all of them still having powers they would need more then five boxes with the way they inhaled food – especially Conner.

Not mention the yellows could put away food when they wanted and with two of them, both still having powers, pregnant meant the food would be gone before the other could blink so four minutes latter it was Neve who happily jumped up to grabbed the five new pizza's from the delivery man as Conner and Jason fought over the last slice in the last box on the table.

xXx

Neve laughed as she flipped over Conner who had tripped and fallen onto all fours and caught the oncoming Frisbee and held it high as and began to jump as Julie and Kira tried to get from her as she walked backward. She gasped as she bumped into a warm chest and the rainbow Frisbee was taken from her hands and she looked up to stare into the blue eyes of Hunter. She turned and placed her hands on her hip.

"Hey! That was mine," she whined pouting slightly as they all laughed at the birthday girls antics and Hunter wrapped his free arm around her as he smirked that smug and cute smirk that always seemed to make her forget how to breathe and her eyes glazed over as she forgot what she was saying. She didn't realize much until Julie began to run to the picnic area with the Frisbee claiming her win and her prize – the last slice of pizza.

"That was cheating," she said poking Hunter in the chest but she laughed as she saw Julie attack the large slice of pizza with savage quickness, she was definitely her fathers daughter.

"Your not really angry though," Hunter said and she nodded. She really wasn't and the group all gathered as they began to walk back to the picnic area. As the got there Kim smiled and held out a sparkly pink gift with a green bow. She smiled and took it.

"Oh is it present time?" Conner asked and they laughed as the Red Ranger seemed more exited then Neve was.

"Yes, it's present time." Kim then reached down to pick up another box with a light purple vintage like wrapping and darker purple bow. "That one is from Conner," Kim told her daughter and Neve opened it, blinking in confusion as she held a small bottle the side of her palm in her hand. It had the words writers block on the from and little magnets inside. Everyone frowned and Neve looked at Conner who grinned.

"I found them in online, they're word magnets that you put on a metal surface and they help with writers block," he said beaming and Kira smiled.

"He got me some as well, they really do work," she said and Neve laughed and reached over to hug Conner.

"Thanks Con," she said and Kim handed her daughter the next present.

"That one is from Trent and Tiernan." Neve nodded and unwrapped it happily squealing at the object inside. Some of the Rangers closest to her covered their ears at the high pitch squeal and she chuckled as she held up a crystal green duckling with a necklace that said happy birthday around its neck. It was about the size of her fist give or take a little.

"I love it, so cute," she said and hugged both boys, though she didn't notice Hunter narrowing his eyes slightly as she hugged Tiernan. Most of the others did but didn't say anything about it. "Thank you!"

Kira smiled and took the next present from Kim and handed it to Neve. It was wrapped the same way as the other one but was slightly longer and thinner. She opened and smiled, it was a necklace, but something she had never seen before. It was blown glass and sparkled with different gemstone colors and on the chain in intervals was little diamonds. The glass globe was no bitter then her palm, almost.

"It's a birthstone necklace, my aunt makes them for a living and I asked her to make this one especially for you," Kira said and Neve set the gift down with the other and jumped to Kira, hugging the now laughing girl as the other watched. Sometimes they all forgot that for everything Neveah had been through she was still just a fifteen year old girl.

After settling down she went back to her spot in front of Hunter who smiled down as her as he handed her another gift in the same wrapping and same shape as Kira's and she smiled as she opened it. Inside was a pink Ebook and she grinned and looked at Ethan who was grinning madly and almost seemed to be puffing out his chest in pride.

"That's definitely from Ethan," Kira said with a chuckle and Neve sat it down and leaned over to hug the blue clad boy. To everyone's amusement the boy blushed a little before she pulled back.

"Thank you Ethan, I love it!" she exclaimed and it was Andros who handed her the next also wrapped like the other three before in purple and darker purple. She figured it was simply coincidence or they'd wrapped them at the last minute. She smiled at him, and opened it and gasped. Inside was a rather large crystal necklace that sort of captured the rainbow when it hit the light as she held it up.

"That is a Korovian dream crystal. It's good luck on our planet, as long as you have faith in yourself and wear it you'll get good dreams and luck," Karone explained and Neve smiled up at them before standing hugging each off earth Ranger.

"Thank you, it's beautiful," she said and Kim smiled as she handed Neve another gift this one in green and pink shinny wrapping and she opened it to see a simple green jewelry box and as she opened it she saw the wide mirror on the inside of the lid and she smiled at her parents.

"Thanks, It'll come in handy," she said and they laughed. Yeah, with the jewelry she was getting over the year she would really need a new place to store some of it because she loved jewelry, and as it was her old jewelry box was over flowing it was so full. Then Hunter handed her the last gift she could see anyways and she smiled up at him and opened it. She gasped as she held up the necklace inside. It was a golden chain with a golden heart shaped pendent at the end surrounded by different gemstones which were also attached to the chain in a cluster. On the golden heart-shaped pendent was a tiger and she instantly knew it was a Chinese zodiac.

"I know how much you hate your own Chinese zodiac," he began and Neve made a face as she thought of the Rat which was her Chinese zodiac. "So I saw this one and figured the tiger would have to do," he said and Neve stood up and slipped the necklace on before leaning up to kiss Hunter who returned her kiss with just as much passion. They came up for air though when they heard coughs and they both turned – well she turned he was already facing them – blushing slightly as the others had amused and some – her father, and Jason mostly – had disturbed looks on their face.

"Sorry," she muttered before smiling up at Hunter. "I love it, thank you," she said and he grinned.

"So, is it time for cake yet?" Conner asked and Kira rolled her eyes, hitting him on the back of the head before shaking her head.

"No yet Conner, there is still one more thing," Kim said and Kira let out a strangled breathe as Tori grinned and helped Kim heft as large stuffed tote bag onto the table and Neve's eyes widened.

"I give this gift to you from everyone here, with great trepidation," Kira said and sighed as Neve squealed as she read the bag, it was a Twilight bag and she would bet her morpher the insides had things to do with Twilight – if Kira's actions had anything to do with it as well. Tori nodded and Neve practically stood on where she once sat and flipped over Ethan and Kira to get to the other side at the end of the table and everyone laughed at her antics. Andros and the others did not know what Twilight was besides a book series, they had no idea that it was a teenager and sometimes mother- coughKimcough – obsession that ruined lives – mainly Tommy's.

They all watched as she pulled things out, T-shirts with saying that didn't really make since to most the boys in the group or Ashley or Karone but Tori, Kim and Neve gushed over them while Kira rolled her eyes and refused to touch the stuff which was begging to pile up in front of her. A small white teddy bear with a shirt one with a Twilight theme, a mug and a magnet along with three sets of PJ's. Obviously they couldn't decided which ones to get so they got them all or so Kim said. There was also a black box which opened to have some sort of crest on different jewelery, rings, bracelet a pendent which Neve gushed over. It was sort of flashy and Kira had rolled her eyes and mutter Rosalie under her breathe not that many got what she meant though Neve turned and glared at her sharply her eyes flashing pink as she did.

Finally there was one shirt, a black one that made Neve and the girls laugh happily about and Kira smirked and Hunter and Tommy's mouth fell open.

It was black with white words and little land print beside them saying, 'My little Nudger'. And anyone could tell it was a maternity shirt. Blake laughed.

"I don't think I've ever seen Hunter so speechless..." Blake frowned as he waved a hand in front of his brothers face. "...or dead to the world."

The other looked up and chuckled at the boys terrified and speechless face while Tommy sort of mirrored him for different reasons. It was Tommy who snapped out of it first.

"You are not allowed to wear that until...god forbid..." he broke off before smirking. "...until your forty!" he finished and Jason laughed before Tommy leaned over and whispered something in his ear that made him go pale and grabbed Julie into his arms almost like a protective barrier and Trini laughed at the antics of the two old friends.

"Huhhh?" was all Hunter could get out as he blinked and Neve giggled and put the shirt down before hugging her father and then going over to hug Hunter.

"Of course daddy," she said though a bit sarcastically though only Tommy didn't seem to hear it and she leaned up and kissed Hunter softly. "I'm sorry Handsome, I didn't scare you did I?" she asked smirking and he shook his head. No, he was just shocked, it wasn't like they had ever done anything to warrant maternity clothes.

"No, I was just shocked," he said trying to keep his male pride intact and Conner looked on confused as Neve went back and held up a best friend Quileute pendent set and two bracelets and she pouted at them. Not knowing who to give the other halves to.

"What is this Twilight thing anyway?" he asked and Neve gasped offended as she looked over at him and Tori and Kim watched wide eyed. Tommy rolled his eyes and crossed his arms pouting.

"It's evil Conner, it's ruined my wife and I have the T-shirt to prove it," Tommy grumbled and Kim looked at him while Tori and Neve tried to explain everything but only made everyone who didn't know Twilight more confused. Though Ashley and Karone were very interested and Zhane and Andros watched with horror as the two asked Kim about getting copies of the books to take home with them.

"I don't understand why you like it?" Conner said as the two stopped talking. Tori glared and Blake shrunk back, he knew what those damn books did to his girlfriend and he had prayed everyday that those books would suddenly disappear but the last time he'd tried to hide them his girlfriend had almost busted his eardrums. He was scarred for life.

"What teenage girl doesn't love Twilight?" Neve asked and Kira looked up and opened her mouth but Neve glared and stopped her from speaking. "Don't..even...say it." Kira instantly shut up and frowned.

"Neveah, who gets the other halves of your friendship necklace?" Julie asked as she looked up at Neve and Neve frowned before looking at Tori and Kira – the former looking sort of afraid. She bit her lip.

"Oh!" she suddenly exclaimed and opened the necklace and then the two bracelets. She gave the Quileute themed bracelet to Julie and placed the other around her own wrist. She then walked over to Katerina and looking at Karone and Zhane for permission which they gave she placed one half of the Quileute necklace around her neck and the other around hers.

"This way, I don't have to choice between Tori and Kira. Besides they already have best friends bracelets," Neve said and motioned to the pink and green woven string bracelet and Tori and Kira smiled pointing to theirs though theirs were only Blue and Yellow respectively.

"Thank you Neve!" both girls said and hugged her before they pulled back and Neve went to her seat where Conner was now drooling over her cake. She waked him in the head and snorted as he looked sort of like a hang dog.

"That is my cake McKnight," she said and Conner groaned. Kim laughed and picked up a cake knife.

"Who is ready for cake?" she asked and everyone chorused with a 'Me!'. Before Kim could cut the cake though a sound alerted the Rangers and out of a glowing gold portal came a woman in metal gear, almost corset like with golden leather pants and books. The only other color on her was the pale skin of her face which were marked with three whisker like purple marks and the black hair and purple eyes. Beside her was a group of things that reminded them of Triptoids only with metal armor in silver and gold.

"How sweet," the woman crooned and the Ranger all stood up and in front of the group and Kim bit her lip as she noticed the look on Neve's face was the same as the one when the Green Dragon Ranger had come from the past. She was slipping into leader mod and even Tiernan and Trent could see it.

"Who are you, and what do you want?" Neve asked before Conner could even move forward and though Conner was slightly shocked he let Neve take the lead, much like Shane had those months before when they dealt with the Evil Green Ranger from the past.

"I am Tyrena, the soon to be Empress of this world." The woman, Tyrena laughed and stepped forward looking Hunter and Neve over who stood together, though Hunter was behind Neve, since Neve wouldn't let him stand beside her as he didn't have any Ranger Powers.

"And I want you dead Green Ranger," she cackled and everyone looked at her in shock.

What? This didn't make any since!

TO BE CONTINUED...

A/N: So what do ya think? Most of the chapter was just fluffy stuff but it is so rare that Neve gets to be a normal teenager - sort of anyways. Does anyone want to take a guess as to why Tyrena wants Neve dead? I'll give ya a hint Tyrena is the lead villain from the future, about twenty-two years, give or take. Next chapter will be full of action and twist, and maybe fainting. lol. I had to add the Twilight craze, I am someone who suffers from O.C.D - Obsessive Cullen Disorder (and the real form as well as it may be) so I had to give it to Neve in some way and it sort of just jumped from Neve to Tori and Kim. I didn't see Kira as a Twihard though.

Also if you want to see Neve's gifts you can either go to my Polyvore manually (Lily Desdemona Cullen) or use the link on my Profile which will be up in a moment.

Anyways until next time!
