The next morning Tommy woke up and checked his cell phone. When he saw the date he got to thinking.
I hope she is home today. He thought.
He took his shower and almost made it out the door before Billy stopped him.
"Are you going where I think you are going?" He asked.
What makes you think I am going somewhere?" Tommy asked.
"It is a Saturday and a special day for a friend of ours."
"I just hope Mesogog does not ruin it."
"I know the last thing you want to do is drive all the way back from Angel Grove earlier than you want to because of a monster attack."
"I guess I have gone from forgetful to predictable?" Tommy asked.
"I believe so," Billy said.
"Well I am off to Hallmark than to Angel Grove."
"Alright be careful."
Before leaving town, Tommy picked up a card and two balloons.
I wonder if I should get any more balloons. He thought.
While Tommy was on his way to Angel Grove, Elsa came up with a new plan.
"The rangers can not stop us if they are not human."
"This is true, what do you purpose?" Mesogog asked.
"A monster that will turn them into something else."
"If this does not work, I'll recreate it to turn you into something else."
What Elsa created was a monkey monster.
"Those rangers will become banana's that won't split," the monster said.
At the Cyberspace Cafe, Ethan and Lena were playing a game against each other, Conner and Katie were talking, Kira was singing, and Trent was watching her. Alpha contacted them about the monster. Conner answered.
"Conner here."
"You and the others are needed at the rock quarry."
"I'll let the others know."
"I was afraid this would happen," Katie said.
Conner sent a text message to Ethan and Trent. When Trent read it, he got Kira's attention and she read it. Ethan just beaten Lena at a level when he revived the text.
"I hate to do this but I have to go. My mom wants me to come home."
"Is everything alright?"
"I think so, I'll find out when I get home."
"Alright I'll see you later."
I can not believe she bought that. He thought while walking out the door.
When everyone was outside Ethan said, "Good call with the text bro."
"I wish I did not have to send them, but you three were busy."
"Let's go," Trent said.
A short time later the rangers saw the monster.
"Hey where is Dr O?" Kira asked.
Billy contacted them and said, "He is out-of-town."
"What a time to be out-of-town," Conner said.
"Tell me about it. At least he won't have to deal with this hairy mess," Katie said.
"Ah rangers just the people I been waiting for."
Meanwhile Tommy arrived in Angel Grove. The first stop he made was to Jason and Kat's.
Jason answered the door almost a minute after Tommy rang the door bell.
"Nice of you to drop by bro."
I figured since I am in town I better stop by."
"Does this have to do with some bodies birthday?"
"Do you think that she thinks I forgot?"
"Knowing your past, probably."
"Anyways, I came by to ask for directions to her place."
"I figured, anyways it is two blocks from here. It is a brick house on your right."
"Thanks bro, say is Kat around?"
"No she went to the mall with her mom. They are getting some things for the baby."
"Do you know what you are going to have?"
"We do not want to know."
"Fair enough, hey thanks bro."
"No problem, say you might want to come back if it is not late."
"You think Kat will be home by the time I leave Kim's?"
"Unless Kim is not home."
"If that is the case, than this was a wasted trip."
"Don't say that around Kat."
"I hope nothing happens while I am here."
"No kidding."
"Well if I don't see Kat, tell her I said hi."
"Will do."
A minute later, Tommy found Kim's house. He walked up to the front door holding the card and balloons, rang the doorbell, and waited. Two minutes later, he started to tie the balloon strings around the doorknob when Kim opened the door.
"Oh Tommy what a pleasant surprise."
"Is it really? I mean it is Valentine's day."
"True, come on in."
"Thanks, oh these are for you," Tommy said handing her the balloons and card.
"Thanks, just two balloons? A white one and a pink one?"
"Do you think I should have got a green instead of a white one?"
"I think you should have got white, green, red, black, and pink balloons."
"Un the strings are green and black and the envelope is red."
"I am kidding, you did fine hansom."
"I miss hear that word beautiful."
"I miss hearing that word."
While Tommy and Kim were catching up, the rest of the rangers were in a tough battle.
"I sure wish Dr O was here," Kira said.
"I know, but I believe we can defeat this guy," Conner said.
"That's what you think," the monster said.
The monster through a banana towards Katie. She got out-of-the-way.
"Hey it was supposed to hit you and turn you into a banana."
Back at the lab Billy and Alpha were watching when Billy said, "Not another one of these monsters."
"Ayi-yi-yi I hope none of the rangers get turned into a banana."
Being a football was not good. I hope I do not have to call Tommy back."
"Hey do you have any advice for us?" Conner asked.
"Yes do not get hit by the banana," Billy said.
"We kind of already figured that one out," Ethan said.
"I think I should go there if they do become banana's so the monster does not take them away," Billy said.
"No need, I made so adjustments. If we need to, I'll press a few buttons and they will be transported here," Alpha said.
"I have tried to develop a transportation system," Billy said.
"I know, I just finished it for you," Alpha said.
Meanwhile, the rangers were about to use the Z Rex Blaster when the monster through the banana one last time. It hit Trent then it hit Katie, turning them into banana's in their colors. Conner picked them up before the monster could get to them. Conner got out of the way of the banana but Kira was not so lucky.
"Three down two to go," the monster said.
"Not if we have anything to say about it," Ethan said.
Conner saw the banana coming his way and he ran away, the banana, hit Ethan.
Conner contacted Billy and said, "I kind of have my hands full. Literally and figuratively."
"Alpha has developed a transportation system. We will try it out on the rangers/bananas."
Seconds later, the banana's were gone. The monster timed his next throw out perfectly as it hit Conner. Before the monster could get it, Alpha brought it back to the lab. The monster went back to Mesogog's lab.
"With the kids turned into banana's there is one thing left to do," Billy said.
"Ayi-yi-yi I was afraid it would come down to that."
Billy contacted Tommy, "I hate to interrupt, but we need you here."
"Aw man not now I am with Kim. Can't the kids handle it?"
"They are in a state kind of like what some of us were in a few times."
"A monster turned them into something?"
"Affirmative they should be fine, as long as Rocky does not come here."
"What type of food are they?" Tommy asked annoyed.
"Banana's."
"I'll be there in a few hours."
"I'm coming to," Kim said.
""Are you sure about that?" Tommy asked.
"It is my day, and I am supposed to have dinner with Hayley and Billy tonight."
"If they can not turn the kids back into humans, then you won't be able to have your birthday dinner. We better get ready to go."
A couple of minutes later, they were in Tommy's jeep on their way to Reefside.
