Warnings: With this chapter it's just going to be the single song now and they're going to the lodge the following morning to go skiing. But the mission is going to just get a brief shot, as the nine switch positions in team dynamics for a bit, before we hit October and Jason Returns after that.
But from here, it's the act of them trying to counteract the side effects of the spell, until they're back as one team together. But from here the bonds between both sides of the original team are being worked at being fixed and story number two is focused on the the episodes of Tommy get captured a second time, up the second movie as their parents have to fix the damage.
Chapter 29: The Furthered Explanations And The Truth
"Look you two just because I set things on hold with him, it doesn't mean I'd ever do the same thing to you. I know that as pack animals, it's always us and we, well that's not the case right now, you're not the ones in the field all the time, you're not the ones involved in dangerous sports. Nor are you the ones who were nearly killed last year just to dismantle the team and with those words in mind, this isn't about you guys right now."
"It's about me and him, you know what my sport is, and what happens when I try to over do it as well. But him, think it over why did I tell the quartet and Billy first, before calling you, Jason and Aisha back here exactly, huh. Your father's a narc, dad is a homicide detective, and Uncle Preston is a soldier, in the military, so what do all of them have in common with each other?" she asked and Zack closed his eyes as he said it.
"Extremely dangerous jobs, you lose your focus and it could get him and the others hurt or killed." he said and she nodded. "The reason I didn't tell you this till tonight was that there was something else you had to see. Though I said lost my grip on the bars there was more to it." she said and Jason felt his heart start pounding at that. "How much more, Kim, if you waited till now to tell us." he said and she said it firmly then
"Damian, Brennan, Jesse, Tobin, Kalina, Elena do it, last Friday's training, before I wrote the letter on Monday and came to see you guys." she said and and Jake looked at her. "You showed this to the kids on Monday, whatever it might be, and waited till tonight, with my being a paramedic. And your mother-in-law an M.D., baby, because if that's the case it's only more necessary in our direct opinions, with Aisha in Kenya right now."
"All that's left of the team here is the boys, Tanya and Kat, so to you it's tell the quintet that deserved to know first. The members of the gang that are with James and Tommy at the moment, before getting the extended family members, Janet and Preston. And telling the rest of the gang, the duo, before us as your parents, is that it baby?" He asked her and she nodded as she answered him gently as the sextet surrounded her on both sides.
"Yeah that's it exactly, the first to know were the pack animals with him, and my alpha's third, in both genders. Because if I didn't tell them early it's siding with the alpha, but they, the quintet, all chose me without thinking twice about it." she said and they nodded as the sextet watched it a second time as Jason shot to his feet. As he saw lose her grip on the bars and hit the floor and he nodded as his brother and the duo looked at her.
"What the heck caused that Kim, the last time you got hurt was seven years ago?" Jamie said in shock to that and she sighed. "Brennan gave a sudden pained screech and I got hit by his jolt in the process. Listen to me you guys, you know I've been training as a gymnast since I was 5, but all that time, until these last four years. I've only had one concentration lapse and what did it do?" she asked and Mei said it firmly at the image.
"You ended up in the hospital for a sprained wrist and then again after Jenkins crossed the line and since then. We always told you if you were too tired to complete the workout tell us and you were taking a few days off then." she said and she nodded. "Dad you're the one with the dangerous job in arresting criminals and homicides, it's the same for you Uncles, Preston, Peter and with that in mind right now at the moment."
"What's your opinion in Tommy's case if he can't focus with him as the leader of the team, and combined with it, as I've got 3 piece connection to him, we're psychically linked. I'm talking a spiritually and empathy link, so in your opinion, would you consider. That if either of us heard the opposite mate animal give off a sudden pained screech that this is needed so we can both concentrate now?" she asked and they nodded to her.
"Yes and with that, kids rewind that, whoever of you was that gave off that screech or pained shout in animal mode. I want to know who it is right now, if this has happened repeatedly." Jake said sharply for all three of them as they watched her in the middle of the turned swing as they heard a sudden bird screech at that. She lost her focus as her hand slipped of the bar and she landed hard on the mat at that and they nodded.
"Eric what do you sound like exactly honey." Melissa said as they heard an even deeper version and they all nodded. "Play the others, since you gained these powers, if this has been going on for seven months, prior to her writing that letter." Nathan said as they watched her working before they heard repeated call outs as she lost her concentration again and again and Dillon covered his eyes as Kat nodded as she answered her.
"Seven months of this since we gained these powers, and every time we get hit, it hits you in the process. Well that's makes perfect sense, with the quartet supposedly retired, along with Billy. It's every time you heard us, your quintet, it's causing you to lose your concentration now. It's the empathy link, and you said that last one was enough to cause the coach's nerves to snap and he's keeping you off the equipment as a result."
"We can't keep this up right now, because you lose your grip one more time and it could cause you to break a bone or joint." she said and Kim nodded to her. "Girls, you're with him, I told you first because of this, but I may have just connected to you, Tanya. But the two piece spiritual bond between us, the six of us, is completely intact. In fact that's why I keep losing my focus, every time you get hit, it hits me in the proces here, guys."
"Kat as you're the one connected to me like the quintet are, I think you what this is, since we became team mates, I told you first. Because you're my alpha's third on the girl side of the team now, my best friend and soul-bonded sister. But have you heard sudden pained squawks every time I lose focus and my grip or balance on these things?" she said and the quintet nodded as their eyes narrowed at the news as Adam answered her.
"Yeah we have, but it's do to our connection, right." he said and sighed. "Yeah just like I get hit by your jolts you're getting hit by mine and as a result. It's that the sudden blows are bouncing back and forth between us, this keeps up. And it's going to cause one of us to end up the hospital for a loss of concentration." she said and he nodded as the sextet exchanged worried looks as he said it for the six of them at that remark firmly.
"We shouldn't have let you leave then at the moment here if you, or rather we, lost our concentration, because then it wouldn't be causing you to lose your focus. So long as you and Billy did this together and we were, to help us, we were fine here. At the moment I'm seeing a repeater of Aisha trying to face that fire monster on her own. But there's no I in team, we were there for each other, but without us, you can't focus and vice versa."
"Well that sums it up, our link has you losing focus and every time you do, we keep hearing Shal give out a pained squawk every time. Sha' are you hearing our animals call out to you as well?" he asked and she nodded. "I'm being bombarded by all of you every time you get hurt guys, our link is in its infancy, but to focus. It's we need to be together right now, and with that in mind enough is enough." she said to her and she nodded.
"You think the link made it clear that though you were trying to protect me from Zedd at the time, it's time we just said the heck with the long distance bonds and relationships. And I mean right now, because he decides to pull what he did to our doubles, it's going to destroy us, to save the team that's more important the one person or another. And to save it, it's time to bend the rules and take advantage of our communicators now."
"It's time we got back together as with us, it's we added two new additions to the team now, the team is our family. The Ninjetti need to be together to help us all now, so we go with our plan now starting now, we alter the rules, with us retiring in 18 months now?" Kim said and they nodded in agreement. "Alright we agree here, so all in favor of doing this and signing those permission slips, say aye." Tommy said and the 8 said it together.
"Aye." they said and Jason finished that. "All opposed?" he asked and they looked at the duo who sighed. "The motion has passed, we're taking advantage of our communicators and starting Monday after school and practice, you two and Jason are coming home. And we're back as a single team again, and one other thing. Start mixing your new colors with the ones created as Ninjetti now." Tommy said and the girls both nodded to him.
"You're the white ranger Tommy, so red and white in your case, gold and red in Jason's and blue and red in Rocky's, Adam has Black and green. I'm pink and purple and Tanya is yellow and gold, but that's all of us, but with the fact we're doing this. I don't give a damn for excuses right now, that letter and what goes on in your relationship. That is between you, we're not taking sides we choose both sides here, Crane."
"But this keeps up and you're going to give us all a heart attack, Sis, you already nearly given me once after he put you in the hospital. I'm not having you getting so drained you end up in the emergency room right now, or you lose your focus. And this time it gets you kicked right off the gymnastics team, because it broke a bone and you're injured enough it lands you in a wheelchair right now." Kat said and she nodded to her.
"Well that's why I'm not risking this anymore, but you two, Zack, Trini, with you guys and Jason retired, you don't have the link we have. But we're you ignoring your animal spirits, your instincts nine months ago, because you thought we didn't need you. You're retired and with it, the trio could handle things, I didn't need you so why bother coming to help out?" she asked and they paled at the wording and the trio all nodded to that.
"That's what I thought, but just because you're not carrying the morpher or the power coin doesn't mean you're retired, you two. Because we did needed you, all three of you, if I had you in Miami, I had you keeping me company. But I take it that you're not paying attention to it right now, but that's part of the problem. But my sport, and my two favorites in it were the bars and the balance beam, and as you just saw now, Zack."
"What happens if I lose my focus if I'm 8 to 10 feet off the floor?" she asked and and he felt his heart lurch. "You're going to get hurt if you lose your focus and from that high up off the floor." he said and she nodded to him firmly. "That's why I had to get you guys to understand, but you need to see why now you two." she said as she removed the wristband from her wrist and they saw the ace wrap then as she removed it.
And Jason shot to his feet as he saw the injury and his eyes flared in anger as they heard a furious growl growing in intensity then. "That's the second injury off the whatever it was, if you lost your concentration in ten years, Kim, what the heck caused it this time?" Jason snapped as he checked her wrist as he saw her skin a blackish blue around red sprained areas as he looked her wrist over carefully as Caroline said it firmly at that.
"Aw no, not again, alright what caused that and who's the person who caused that. If you lost your grip on whatever it was you were hanging on to this time since you left town. If this is why you had to write the letter I understand that but if this happened because of whatever connection both age groups have, who caused it this time?!" Caroline said with a sharp tone at that revelation.
"What caused this is what I just showed you mom, as I said this happened last week, before I wrote that letter, I showed this to the sextet. Jason had the very same reaction Billy did on Monday after I showed them this. But this injury is a week old now, and it's thanks to a concentration lapse." she said and sighed as she finished that. "Mom this was last Friday, after it happened I ended up in the locker room and that's when I decided."
"I can't keep this up anymore, so it's either I can wait for a year to get into the Olympics, and come home to join the sextet. But I tried and tried to uphold a long distance relationship, but I had to draw the line somewhere and I just did it. But I took it back so fast, he still belongs to me, as my soulmate, I'm not letting him go. We needed some way to be back together and and Zordon gave it to us today at the moment."
"This was last Friday, I reached my limit, I can't keep this up anymore, not only am I homesick, it's our link, and this was the latest one I took now. But I tried and tried before I finally just drew the line now, wrote that letter and I came to see the sextet. Told them before hand and they all agreed with me, if it helps us all to concentrate, it's for the best now, but they know it was only a matter of time before we called it now."
"But before we came to this decision it was we either end it now and tried again later, after we retired here, or two, we put things on hold and rebuild our bond. But either way, it's getting way too dangerous right now, our empathy link is causing these side effects, I can't do it anymore." she said and the adult eleven all nodded with furious looks at the news. "This injury happened last weekend?!" Peter said as Melissa finished that remark.
"What the hell, baby you only said you lost your grip on the bars, but you never told us you sprained your wrist?!" Melissa asked quickly at that remark as she checked it gently and she flinched and they nodded firmly. "And you showed this to the kids, before you revealed this injury to us as the adult nine, us nine and Melissa finally?" Nathan added and she nodded as she looked between her trio and said it gently to them at that.
"Yeah I did, but this was a few days before Billy came home from Aquitar, that's the planet our friends, the alien rangers are from, and to answer your other question. When I suddenly got hit it was by Tommy's jolt when the monster he was fighting gave him a concussion in the fight. But the effects of being connected to each other this level, since I left and with me Aisha, it's resulted in a serious loss of concentration completely now."
"The link was a emotional and spiritual bond between me and the sextet, two levels between me and the 7, 3 with Tommy, and the results are we're permanently connected now. So added side effects of being a Ninjetti, the empathy link went crazy, since Mondo showed up, I can hear the quartet every time they get hurt. This was a result of Mean Screen giving Tommy a concussion, but I was in the middle of a turning swing."
"On the bars, hear Brennan gave a pained screech and lost my grip on the bars, and landed hard on it, but that got the team's attention. But that's when I decided enough was enough, I'm drawing the line at trying and decided to come see you. The jolt did the same damage that I used to get from working on the balance beam. After 5 years, but this time, it's the result of our animals distracting me every time they're in battle now."
"Our link was two fold in the case of the quintet and me, but it's on three with Tommy, but Coach took me off working on the equipment. And has me working on the mat till my wrist heals, but this is why I decided to put things on hold. If he can't concentrate, he's going to put himself and the quartet at risk every time he goes into the field." she said and they nodded as James said it firmly at that remark with a worried look.
"Makes perfect sense right now." he said and and the duo's parents both looked at them. "I say that's more than enough of a reason now to draw the line and put things on hold, Kimmy, because you ending up in the emergency room nine months ago is one thing. This keeps keeps you're going to give us a heart attack if you lose your focus again, and you're working on the high beam and lose your grip." Jason said to her firmly at that.
"After she told us this, it was enough to scare the heck out of me at the time dad, next to Billy, I'm the other one trained in first aid and with that. Her ending up in the hospital out of exhaustion is one thing, but this, and then there's the fact that some guy who want take no for an answer, like say Jared Anderson. That's enough to make me worried, she's my baby sister, I'm not having her subjected to that or seeing her this hurt."
"Emotionally let alone physically, just because she did the right thing and thought about our concentration, her's, first. But what goes on in their relationship is not our business, not our love life we stay out of it and 7 of 9 members of the team agree with her. We're just their shoulders to lean on, nothing more and frankly now, she needs us more then he does, she's an emotional wreck and can't concentrate." Rocky said and he nodded.
"But you guys were there for me when I needed you most Rocky, you're my brother and the time we spent together just made things clearer. With the fact I told the five of you first, that just made it set in stone, you're not choosing sides, it's both sides. After they left, you were giving me that shoulder to lean and it kept up leading into the loss of my power coin, so why else would I tell you first." she said and he nodded as he hugged her.
"It's because our emotions were fused together now, before you came to see us, I was feeling the pain of a broken heart, and then hope. Just before I felt a very heavy tone determination then, just before Tommy contacted us to get us up there. I take it making that decision was killing you to do it and then our animals told you. That you guys were soulmates and bound together for life." he asked and she nodded as Kat answered her.
"So what was the tone of determination we felt about, because I also felt that if Kalina was telling you I was nearly ready to join you?" she asked and Kim looked at her. "It's making sure that Zedd and Rita never get their hands on either of you again. The three of us share a link, but like Jason, you're his best female friend with Aisha right behind her, you're my best friend, you and Aisha, my trio." she said and sighed as she went on.
"That's why I can't focus, our link, it's been close to ten months and the homesickness keeps getting worse. As you saw in my locker, I kept things that reminded of our lives as a single team, I miss the guys and the duo so much. Now, that I reached my limit, I can't stay out there, I need to be here with the guys and Kat now." she said and they nodded as Billy pulled her into a hug and she buried her head into his shoulder then.
"I think that says everything that needs to be said, that letter was a fake, you decided you wanted to come home now. So instead of separating, you put things on hold and we rewrote the rule book, Zordon gave you a way to come home now. So 73 hours a week, that could be spent here with us, we see each other every day. And you have something to look forward to, because you can see us." Billy said to her softly and she nodded.
Pressing her forehead to his, they heard a gentle purring come from him at that as she looked into his eyes. "I don't care what they say right now, it's between us, him and me, but the ones that are with him and family. They're the first to know and you're the last of my childhood quintet still here, I need to be with you, I miss you guys so much." she said and and he nodded as he answered her softly at the remark as he hugged her.
"I know and we can deal with this together, as I said 73 hours a week, but that could be spent here in town with us, our communicators can bring you home. And we see each other every day after that, once in a life means there no second chance. So we take this one and do our decisions on our own now. We're the leaders of the team now, it's our decision, I stuck by you, I'm getting you back." he said and she nodded to him softly.
"Billy I never wanted to leave you anyway, sure I was aiming for the Olympics, but if we just thought this out sooner. We could have done things like we just decided this week." she said and he nodded. "Yes and that's hind sight now, we never thought to activate the permission slips and you always wearing your communicator. So you can get back up here after school and practice, and have the best of both worlds now as a result."
"As to that, we made one mistake in this and we're not making another, we can't keep this up in staying separated, anymore then you want to be there alone. We're taking that decision back, you're back with us again, to you and me we're never living that lie again. It's either you come to me or I come to Miami and pick you up, but either way, it's time to get the Ninjetti 7 back together once again." he said and she nodded in agreement.
Looking into his eyes, she pressed her forehead to his and their colors came together in response and Caroline turned her head at that as she looked at their animals. As they did the same thing and hid a smile at that. "The Ninjetti, a Ninjetti can read the truth in another Ninjetti's words, and I think we all came to the same decision now, right?" Kat asked and they nodded as she looked at her sextet at that as they looked back at her.
Looking into her eyes, Rocky, Kat, Aisha and Adam nodded in agreement. "He's right we can't keep this up anymore, the long distance is having us lose focus right now. But we tried and tried to keep up a long distance bond, us in friendship, Tommy in relationship. But we can't anymore, we need to be together, we're Ninjetti, the bond doesn't stop because we lose our powers, we're linked for life." Aisha said to her at that softly then.
"I can't do this anymore, I need you guys, I hate being separated from you, but I can't count on myself anymore I was raised in a pack. I'm a pack animal, I need my pack, but when I see myself in the mirror now, I don't recognize myself. Without my trademark rose pink, near violet colored clothes, always wearing my communicator. Like before, and having my morpher always ready at a moment's notice at the time back then now."
"You, Billy and Adam on both sides of me for those first seven months leading into our gaining our ninja powers and all six of you always at my side at the time. I miss the good old days, us against the entire world and I want that back now, guys. I'm sick of being separated from you, and I made my decision, it's getting us back together. We may have decided to do this to protect me from Zedd and Rita at the time here right now."
"But it's too dangerous now, he's lost his concentration as had you and me, so there were three options to make and we all decided on the third. The permission slips and as a result we all get the best of both worlds until we learn who the gold ranger really is." she said and they nodded as Aisha hugged her then, before Adam did the same then as he answered her softly at the remark as he looked into her eyes at that gently.
"And you can only keep it up, keep up the long distance relationships till you have to draw the line somewhere. And we, the seven of us, just reached it now on Monday, we hate being separated from you Crane, with us back together. You can focus, he can and we're back as a team of seven to eight again finally. But we can't keep this up anymore, we have to see each other to help us all." Adam said to her and Rocky nodded to that.
Going into a group hug, their adult versions watched as their colors started glowing brightly in response. Rocky wrapped his arm around her shoulder and she pressed her head into his neck softly. "I miss you guys so much, I made my decision, I don't care I'm bending or breaking the rules. I need to be with you guys now, my family, my brothers and sisters, I made my choice, I choose you." she said and he nodded to her softly.
"Us too, we're not choosing sides, we choose both sides, but you need us even more, so only one choice, the Ninjetti 6 are back." Rocky said as he pressed his forehead to hers and their colors intertwined at that. "Dad we all made our choice now, it's the permission slip, sign it and the regime starts this coming week. The seven of us are back together after that, but this is needed for the eight of us now." Tommy said and the eight nodded.
"Aside from you and her, who else is losing focus at the moment thanks to your connection?" Jake asked and they sighed. "The empathy link has gone haywire here, it's not one person or another, it's a domino effect right now. One of us gets distracted and it starts a chain reaction hitting the rest of the team as a result, we fix his and it starts bouncing from member to member after that." Kim told him and they all nodded to her.
"That's the side effect of being Ninjetti, you feel each other's feelings and emotions, so one of you feels something and it hits the others in the process?" Preston repeated and she nodded. "It's also the monkey see, monkey do remark I told you about, to get you to focus we have to be together. Billy, is there a way to create the communicators for mom and Aunt Janet?" Kim asked and he nodded as the adult nine and Melissa sighed at that.
"Alright we agree with your chosen decision, starting Monday, it's you're coming home for 7 hours every day after that. But guys just be careful, and that goes especially for you baby." Melissa said and they nodded. "Why are your colors glowing like that?" Tony asked and Rocky explained that. "Because we all decided on the same thing, we had enough of the long distance bonds and relationships, the Ninjetti seven are one again."
"And it's time we stopped living a lie and live it up, as a team we're never living a lie again." he said and the trio nodded as Billy said it then. "I've have had enough of this, the long distance separations. I want my pack back in one piece, back in uniform and my robes and with that, I will never, try to live a lie again. I don't want to win this game if I can't play it my way." he said and Adam, Rocky and Tommy nodded in agreement.
Wrapping her hand around the back of his neck she pressed her forehead to his and their colors came together at that. "Never again, did you ever, doubt your dream will come true." she said and he took the next verse. "Blame the world, but never blame you." he said and Tommy finished it it. "I will never, try to live a lie again." he said and they did the rest together. "I don't want to win this game if I can't play it my way."
"Give me room to think, bring it on down, need to work on my swing, need to be doing my own thing. It's no good at all, to see yourself and not recognize your face, out on my own it's such a scary place." They said together as she wrapped her arms around both of them and they hugged her tightly then. "The answers are all inside of me, all I have to do, is believe." he said and she and Tommy did the rest of that lyric together.
"I'm not going to stop, not going to stop till I get my shot, that's my plan, what I am and will I end up on top. Bet you can." they said together and he nodded as he looked at the trio of their sextet as he said it to her as he looked into her eyes. "Yeah I agree with them, without us and Aisha, Kat and Tanya you can't focus and with that. But we've been doubting we'd ever win this thing, this war with them, let alone school sports."
"The championships in swimming, Martial arts, gymnastics and it's because we can't focus right now. And we blame the duo and her family, as well the machine empire, and the Pan Globals for separating us and we reached the moment of truth now. And it's we will never, try to live a lie again, we don't want to win this game if we can't play it our way now." Tommy said firmly and Rocky finished that as he looked at the duo sternly.
"And with those words in mind right now, Zack, Trini, well tell me now you two, is this a good enough reason, now, in our cases, all of us. For them to put things on hold and for them to bend the rules right now in our job. Because if he can't concentrate, he's going to put himself, and us, at risk and if she can't she's going to get hurt. And even more then she is already." Rocky said to them sharply and the duo swallowed at that remark.
"Guys together, back as who we are now." she said and they nodded. "Ninjetti, the falcon!" "The Frog!" "The Ape!" The Crane!" "The Wolf!" "The Bear!" Aisha calle out as they all morphed into their robes for a second time as Kat smiled. "Ninjetti the Cat!" she called out and she appeared in her robes in response as the seven moved together then Tanya crossed her arms as she looked at the duo as Billy wrapped his arm around Kim.
"Next is cherry red and Gold, but other then that, I think that makes your point that the ones who understand this are not the childhood born members of the team. But the newest members, she told me, because I'm the latest member of the team to join it. But it's because of a single thing now." she said and Erica nodded. "It's because we just met her and only heard good things from the guys about her, both versions now."
"And in our eyes the only ones who had a reason to freak out over that letter were the Gold Ranger, both generations. But you two, I think that sums it up, you've supposedly been retired for 2 years and are not keeping in touch enough. So that throws you out of making group decisions, but the ones who had to know first were the ones with the Olivers, that's the guys, our cubs, Andrea and me." Erica said and Tanya finished that.
"And the seven of us can all agree on that, Zordon thinks we're old enough to make the choices in this job. And sure I'm the newest member of the team, but of us I'm the only one who had a right to freak out over that letter. This is none of our business, it's between them and that's where it stays. We're just their shoulders to lean on, and frankly she needs us more then he does right now." Tanya said firmly to them at that.
"Tanya, you're my third, so go ahead and say it, you're the deciding factor with me and Aisha swapping shifts with you and Kat starting now." Kim said and she nodded to the request. "I'm guessing that's secondary beta, if this was a wolf pack, right honey?" Nathan asked and they nodded. "Yeah, Rocky's tinge is the symbol of the beta, and the boys are matched to us, but first is beta, second is alpha's third, 3rd is secondary beta."
"That's my position and with me is Adam, so in the girls it's alpha, beta, alpha's third and secondary beta, right now, but we're matched to our soulmates. And Tommy was the first to have a steady girlfriend, she's alpha, Aisha is beta, Kat is alpha's third. And I'm secondary beta and that's the other reason the duo here are getting irritated. Because not only did she tell us first, they got shuttled to fourth and fifth in command now."
"Listen to me both of you, that letter is none of our damn business, just because she told us right after she sent it doesn't mean that, we, the rest of us. Should start choosing sides in this, sure we're his friends, but you were her friends first. But he doesn't need us, she does, he's not the one in pain, physically or emotionally, she is. He needs us more then she does, that's bull right now, she needs us even more then ever right now."
"Why, well it's because she's been guessing and second guessing herself ever since she sent the darn thing. Anderson is back on the prowl, and with them separated, he's going to see this as she's open and on the market, so she needs us just to protect herself. After what she just told me about that prick, I'm not taking chances right now. So why am I the first to be told out of the entire team, why exactly, well it's because of this."
"In my case she needs to get to know me, but I've only just heard good things on her by the guys and Kat. So she had to tell me first, because I'm the deciding factor, but the added connection between us reached a point where. As the girls team, she's alpha, Aisha Beta, Kat third and I'm fourth, Trini, but of four. It's that you and I are pack animals, while the duo are solo animals, so the newest wolf gets its first at the moment."
"While the originals had to wait a few minutes to get that truth, because Kat and I are with him. As are Billy, Adam and Rocky, it's that simple, while in the case of Jason and Aisha, they're family, as is Jamie, it's between the quartet only, and with us with him right now. It was my job just to insure nothing happens to him, and with me, Kat, so you're jealous, that's no excuse for taking sides here." she added and Kim nodded to her.
"Thank you that's exactly we're saying." Kim said and and she nodded to her. "Just under a week, it doesn't matter now, but either way, our bond is never going to change. It's not their business what you do in your relationship, it's between you and that's where it stays. So why should we take sides when you said not to do that, well that's just the entire $10,000 question for you, isn't it." she said and the duo swallowed at the remark.
As Kat sighed in exasperation at that remark as Kim looked at her. "Kitty, you're my best friend you understand this better then Trini does with you with him right now. But you're here and you're holding my place till I come home, but you're my complete equal. So why else would I tell you first, but for the very same reason I told Billy and the guys. And its this, but Alpha's third, you're my alpha's third, you guys, to put this gently."
"If we were werewolves and in a shapeshifter wolf pack, what's the omega to the alpha's third and fourth?" she asked and Bily answered that one. "In the adults it's the best friends, in yours, we're your siblings." he said and she nodded. "Yeah, so what's that do that with two thirds of his original quartet off the team and you're my best friend, you two?" she added and Kat nodded as they nodded firmly as Kat answered that sternly.
"But it means that I got to get him to focus and fast before he makes a mistake, but I was the first to catch it and Rocky said what we were all thinking when she said it. But she confirmed our thoughts, she's not seeing anyone, the link went crazy. This wasn't from any crazy jealous lunatic, her concentration keeps getting side tracked. Every time we get hit in the field now, she can hear our animals giving repeated call outs."
"With being a group of seven for several months, my soul latched on to hers in the exact same way and to the point, I got the same link she does with the quintet. But mine is 50%, she's got the entire 100%, so being the omega of the team. It now just got a heck of a lot more dangerous with her separated from us. Until she drew the line and came to see us to explain why she wrote that letter." she said and the adult 11 nodded firmly.
"Well with those permission slips, what's going to happen if she's swapping turns with you exactly." Jake asked her firmly, before she could answer though, a gold shield suddenly appeared on Kim and she started glowing green for a few seconds. As they saw the bluish black bruise as it faded back to normal whitish pink. "Whoa, alright thanks, Drag." Jason said and they heard a voice answer him with a gentle smile in its tone.
"No problem bro, I may be retired from use as a zord, but I can still help with the healing, my shield is on stand by in case you ever need it when on the job now. For her, it's making sure she never over does it right now, but Fire' and I are dealing with trying to make sure this doesn't get too out of hand. And Andy is determined to prevent me from having a relapse as well, but guys, listen."
"Though my clone is in the past, I'm still here, and as is my alter ego, he's the one who nearly destroyed the team and the town. But you know what happens if I'm placed under a spell of that caliber, but just because my power coin is out of juice. That doesn't mean a thing, I can still come back if I get captured by the empire or the gruesome twosome, always remember that, you two."
"But like I said to Goldar, I'm never turning on you guys again, but if I get captured, then I'm not going to have a choice in the matter. My physical form is still in the pier, if I get captured and then get my hands on my dagger it's going to start all over again, remember that." he said and the eleven all nodded as their parents exchanged worried looks at the remark and she sighed at that remark.
"What's this mean now, you've been retired for two years, are you at half strength or full?" Zack said quickly and he heard a sigh. "Zack our powers get stronger with every year that goes by, when you and the quartet fought it out with me I just activated. And it's been four years since that day, I'm four times more powerful then you remember, but like me, your powers get more powerful every year."
"You think five was enough to stop me four years ago, but at this stage in our careers, it's going to take double that if I get captured and arrested. But look, listen to me, the only reason I stayed like this, this me, is because I had her. But this me is Anakin, after he saw the twins mother again, they've been together for three years and she's now pregnant with his children, the twins."
"And he's suffering exactly what I am, which to put directly into the way Kim phrased it the day that letter arrived. So to put it gently here, but he's got everyone talking behind his back, he's got it coming from both sides. The only person he needs to hear is his own voice in his heart. And he needs to make that choice without anyone else trying to get him to take sides, get in his head."
"He's on his own for the first time and now the world has become beyond dangerous and scary to him, to get him to remember who he once was and is. And it's by reflecting on the old him, the him, his friends and family know. But being brainwashed and turned evil is the same as going to the dark side. I'm at the pinnacle of my career as a Jedi, so to speak, and with that in mind."
"My one true equal is Jason, but how do you suppose having his best friend fight him hit him now, Rex is my equal, my angel is Crane. And you think she'd forgive you if I got stuck like that at the time here, Zack. No, she wouldn't she'd go to the darkside herself and then wipe out the team. So kill one half of the power couple and it destroys the rest of team by a domino effect as a result."
"If I get captured and brainwashed for the second time in four years, it's going to take double the effort and members just to stop me now at this stage. You think she'd ever forgive you if I got stuck like that, I mean seriously. Fire is her alter ego, Draco is mine, if one of us dies and it destroys the team either way, out of a domino effect." he said and Kim sighed as Preston said it for her and Jason.
"I take that's you when you're completely yourself, but if I'm reading this right then the green dragon that I saw at the toy store was really you. And the red T-Rex was Rex, so they're creating stuffed animals based off your zord forms. But what's the deal with the shield you leant her just now?" Preston asked and he explained that. "It's a protective shield, it protects me, when I'm a ranger, from any type of serious blast."
"I leant it to Jason and Zack on three occasions as it protects the wearer, but as you saw the episode focused on me, when I was still under her control. Combined with my dagger I can use it to repel laser blasts and my dagger combined with Jason's power sword has enough power. Now to blast someone right off a cliff if they're standing right on the edge of it, and with that."
"Though I'm retired, that doesn't mean anything, I can still help heal my friends and take care of them if they get hurt. But her especially, until she gets secondary recharge on her Ninjetti powers, Uncle Preston. But you know what she means to me, the trio are my best friends, but frankly now. It's completely lonely without the quintet on the team with me right now at the moment."
"I'm the last of the original six of us and I'm spent the better part of four years always in a sextet, but for the entire three years. I always had Kim and Billy at my side, and thanks to the duo and the empire the last ten months. But they just dismantled my original team and the new version of it right now. But that's why she's decided on this action for both of us right now, we need this."
"And each other more then ever right now, but it's not the Ninjetti that's the target, it's us, the original team. Or, as you come to call us, the Dino ranger team, to the duo, their one source of victory is by either my alter ego. Or our team is cut in half as a result of taking sides at the moment, she belongs to me and vice versa." he said and they all nodded as they exchanged looks at the remark.
"I'm guessing he's just saying your feelings out loud, son, I can hear the loneliness in his voice, that's what you're feeling right now?" Melissa asked and Tommy nodded as Kim leaned into him and he tightened his arms around her. "That's the intention here, so even though you prevent my son ever getting his hands on that dagger. It's they'd win anyway if the duo crossed a line they can't take back?" James added and they nodded.
"Yeah and to repeat this, is your broken heart more important then the greater good Zack, is the greater good not as important then my relationship with him, Trini. You just saw the reason I wrote the letter, if he can't focus it could get them could killed. If I can't, I'm going to lay myself out and I'm never getting into the Olympics, you two, can't you understand this, just because she broke it off with you, it doesn't mean I would."
"My childhood quintet, nothing changes and nothing ever could until you do change it yourselves in how ever many times it takes till that letter does its job. If there's trouble this weekend it's back to the beginning, Leo, you're my brother, always and forever, I promise you that. But right now we just have to rebuild what went wrong and develop our bonds even stronger, alright." Kim said and he closed his eyes as he said it to her.
"Look you guys, we're going to the resort to go skiing tomorrow morning, but it's not him that got the real one, it's you, Zack. So best to do this plan for you now, help you to cheer up, us as the original quintet again and if there's trouble we're back on the job. And the five of us are back as the mighty morphin power rangers, finally." Kim added and Billy, Jason and Trini nodded in agreement to her thoughts then at her remark.
"What do you think guys, do we do it, act like we did, regarding his birthday after we became the Rangers, and during his dance competition?" Jason said and the trio nodded. "At the current moment with the six of us being the start of our legacy at the moment, I think it's time we did for him what we would have. With him losing his self confidence in regarding the dance competitions after I joined the team." Tommy said and she nodded.
"Yeah I agree with him Jason, it's a full circle now, it started with us in the beginning, it's time to put things back in perspective. We've been together so long, it's our only chance, but there's more to life when we listen to our hearts." Kim said and Tommy grinned as he completed the lyric as he said it. "And because of you I have the strength to start." he said and looked at the trio as he looked at the original black, yellow and blue then.
"She's right, only it's not the red ranger that got the break up letter, it's the green ranger who needs cheering up right now. Kim and me, we're fine, but frankly we need to be together, heal the damage starting now. But if it takes over riding that spell repeatedly Billy and I are coming to get you from Angel Grove, Kim from Miami. And we're bringing you home every weekend at the moment, but just because we're Ninjetti now."
"It doesn't change the fact that it started for us first, you need us just as much as she does, so with that in mind. It's not the powers that are about to be taken advantage of right now, but our communicators now. So with that, it's going both ways, we fix the connection, we get stronger until that letter does its job now, starting now." Tommy said and they nodded as Zack got ready to answer him at his remark then gently.
"Alright enough of beating around the bush, it's just this once guys, Zordon I think you know what I'm going to say next here." she said and they heard him answer her. "Yes I do, and everyone be ready, we're bringing you here." he said and she quickly said it to him. "Grab the quintet as well, our, my and Kim's parents, the trio, Mrs. Applebee and Mr. Caplan." Aisha said sharply and Kim thought it over and closed her eyes then.
"And grab my brother and Patrick, they're the only ones, our families and closest friends, allowed to know until whoever shows up next gets a near repeat performance. Especially if this gets any worse right now, okay. So bring everyone to the command chamber." she said and a minute later they all teleported into the chamber at that. "Whoa, that was amazing, whoa, wait a minute, that was you?" Jared said, looking at their uniforms.
"Yeah that was us when you met us, Jare', both before and after, but now that you know, can you promise never to tell anyone." she said and the seven nodded, before they heard a new voice answer that smiling. "No problem baby sister, you have my word now." he said and she grinned and turned to a red clad boy standing there. "Carter." she said and he gave her a hug smiling as she buried her head into his shoulder.
"Guys this is Carter Greyson and Patrick Campbell, guys these are my friends, the trio you know, but this is Billy Cranston, Jason Lee Scott, Trini Kwan, Kat Hilliard, Tanya Sloan, Zack Taylor, Curt Taylor, Richie Cooper, Justin Derek Summers, Zane Jared Tanner, Kristen Jamie Hanson, Bobby Aaron Craybor, and Tina Angie Kimball." she said and the duo nodded as they looked at the quintet and Carter smiled as he answered her.
"Same initials as you and the quartet, so they asked you to call them by their middle names, huh?" he asked and they nodded. "Yeah it was after we met at school and Tommy broke the spell on us, did she decide to offer us a hand in friendship. And that did it, like Tommy we had the very same problem, 'did you ever lose yourself to get what you want'. Said want, friends and a place to belong and the quartet gave it to us."
"Kim changed our lives and she means a lot to us like she does to them, but the added side effect was we were the first to see it and she phoned us. Just before she called the quintet here to the base, though that's no longer the case anymore. But the truth just came out in spades, the 11 are the power rangers, all this time it was them." Derek said and they nodded and they looked at their uniforms then gently at that remark.
"Hey son, thank you for taking care of her." Kim heard as she turned to see her mother and Janet beam into the room with her stepfather and Brandon. "Hi Mrs. Dumas, I take it you were hoping she'd find me and when she did. Then it was time for the truth to come out then, I'm her half brother." he said and she nodded. "That's it exactly honey, and I was giving up hope she ever would until tonight." she said and he nodded to her gently.
"Yeah okay, mom, this was us in the beginning, hey guys, you better just beam out of those tubes, year one, before and after Tommy joined the team." she said as the sextet beamed out of the tubes. "Did the sextet possess the uniforms if that just happened?" Patrick said with a bemused smile and she nodded to him. "Well now I know why you never dressed in anything but pink, it's because of this." Caroline said to her, bemused.
"I know I was right, but having that confirmed right now, it's more then an eye opener right now, but this is ridiculous right now. And I see why you waited till now to tell us, because if I've learned this three years ago when you were just entering your teens. And your parents, Alan, Jane and I would have had a heart attack by now, from the repeated close calls." Ernie said to her and she nodded as their parents nodded to that remark.
"To answer the unasked question of the two times you had double's of us running loose it was so Rita could try to discredit us at the time. But your us are the protectors of the planet, the doubles you saw of us in year one. If anything were our alter egos, which explains Draco right now." Jason said and they nodded as Stone looked at Tommy's original uniform then as he said it firmly thrn at that remark gently.
"I really hope Dragon is out of power, because if that flute calls him in, it's an accident waiting to happen." he said and Kim ran her hand through her hair. "Dragon's powers were drained out of the power coin, so though the power coin is out of juice. That's not going to stop Draco from coming back if he loses his temper completely and then gets arrested by either her or the machine empire." she said and they nodded to her then.
