I woke up in Zemariah's house. As she predicted, her mother loved having another girl in the house. It was the weekend after our team up with the original rangers. I put some clothes on, and walked into the living room, where my two friends were sitting, talking about something. "Morning guys." I greeted.
Zemariah and Kalina turned to me, and returned the greeting. "What are you guys talking about?" I asked. Kalina replied, "The fact that the Dark Void has been strangely quiet this week." I nodded in agreement. "You don't think they've given up, do you?" I asked. Zemariah instantly shook her head. "No, my guess is, they're preparing for something big." She replied, before squeezing Kalina's hand.
I felt a pang in my heart when I realized I would never have what they have. Kalina noticed my expression, and asked, "Are you alright?" I nodded. "It's just the fact that I'll never have what you guys have." I murmured, sitting down on the seat opposite the couch. "You'll find someone, just give it time." Kalina said, putting her hand on my shoulder, and squeezing it gently.
I looked around, and noticed Ms. Zephyr wasn't here. "Where's your mom?" I asked. Zemariah replied, "She went to go see a movie, and something about a massage. She'll be back in like four hours or so." I nodded. "What's being in a relationship like?" I asked. This time, it was Kalina who responded. "It's amazing, it's like being with your best friend, and yet, she's your girlfriend at the same time. It's so intimate. Don't worry, you'll find someone. I know you will."
I nodded, and tilted my head. "If you say so." I muttered, leaning back against the bed.
"This is kind of random, but what is Mirinoi like?" Kalina asked. I smiled at the mention of my home planet. "Mirinoi is one of the most beautiful planets in the universe. When I was born, in 2011, the people of Terra Venture still hadn't settled in fully, so it was still very much a jungle planet. When I was around ten, there were skyscrapers and full cities. The jungle part of the planet is still there. That's where my mother's tribe lives. I was born in the jungle, like my mom wanted. Dad was born on Earth. They sent me to live here for a while, experience Earth. That was about two years ago, and around the time I first met you guys." I explained.
"It sounds beautiful. I'd love to visit." Kalina commented. Zemariah nodded in agreement. "Yeah, I'll probably visit during the Christmas break. I can probably take all four of you, five, if we include Dr. O." I commented, crossing my arms under my chest. Just then, the door opened, and Zephyr walked in, looking relaxed. "Hi girls, how are you?" She asked. "We're doing good. We were just talking about Mirinoi." Zemariah explained. "Ah. I was there with your father when he put the Quasar Sabers in the stone." She commented.
I choked on my water, and Kalina thumped my back. "Your father placed the Quasar Sabers?" I asked, coughing a few times. "I thought you knew that." Zemariah defended. I shook my head. "Yeah. At the time, Zordon was the Red Ranger, and I was the Yellow Ranger. We weren't using the Galaxy Powers, but the powers of the Runestones." Zephyr explained.
"Who were the other three Rangers? Pink, Blue, and Black? Did you guys have a Sixth Ranger?" Kalina questioned. "Slow down. The Pink, Blue and Black Rangers were dear friends of mine and Zordon. The Pink Ranger was a Triforian named Leana. The Blue Ranger was an Aquitian named Senna. The Black Ranger was a Mirinoian by the name of Anya. And yes, we did have a Sixth Ranger, an Orange Ranger. He was a Mercurian, by the name of Tyrus." Zephyr explained.
"What happened to them?" I asked. Zemariah lowered her head, and closed her eyes, letting some tears escape her. "Tyrus, Senna, and Anya were killed in the final battle. The Dark Void took Tyrus' Runestone, and brutally murdered them. Zordon managed to seal them, but at the very last minute. Of the original Earth Force Rangers, I'm the only one left. Leana died of natural causes." Zephyr said, hugging Zemariah, as they both mourned their fallen friends.
"I'm so sorry. That must have been horrible." Kalina said. "It happened thousands of years ago. I just wish I knew how to get the Orange Runestone back from the Dark Void." Zephyr said. "We'll get it back. I promise. For Uncle Tyrus." Zemariah vowed. "Enough of the sad talk. How about we go out to eat? It is just about lunch time." Zephyr said, abruptly changing the topic.
Before we could do anything, our Morphers beeped. "Go for Zemariah." Zemariah said. Dr. O's voice came over the commlinks. "Rangers, the Dark Void is attacking S.P.D. Headquarters. They're gonna need your help over there. Get over there fast." Dr. O said. "Got it. We're on our way." Zemariah said.
"It's Morphin Time! Powers of Earth, Activate!"
"Forceful as Fire, Red Earth Force Ranger!"
"Powerful as the Earth, Yellow Earth Force Ranger!"
"Bright as Lightning, Pink Earth Force Ranger!"
"It's our duty to protect this planet! United we stand! Power Rangers Earth Force!"
The three of us yelled, and teleported to S.P.D. Headquarters. It was absolute chaos. Halcyon and Selina teleported in, already morphed. We started wiping out the Voidlings, while Halcyon and Selina took care of the robotic foot soldiers. Just then, a Red Ranger appeared in front of us. "Are you guys the new Rangers? My name is Bridge." He said. "We need to split up by color. The Dark Void is trying to take out S.P.D." He added.
We nodded, and Bridge called for his fellow Rangers. They all ran in. They introduced themselves as Lina Song, Andrew Jackson, Z Delgado, and Sydney Drew. The Blue, Green, Yellow, and Pink Rangers. "It's nice to meet you, but we have to protect S.P.D." JJ said. "Let's split up, and wipe them out." Bridge ordered.
I teamed up with Syd. "Are you ready? Let's do this!" She said. Our friends split up, and teamed up by color. "I'll take the Krybots, and you take the Voidlings." Syd ordered. I nodded, and called on my Power Bow, and started taking out the Voidlings, dozens at a time. Syd used her blasters to wipe out the Krybots.
Eventually, we both wiped out our respective bad guys. "Come on, let's go help our friends." Syd said. I nodded, and we ran to catch up with the other Rangers, who had just wiped out their own group of bad guys. We all faced Nyx, who stood alongside a bat like creature.
"Broodwing, how did you escape your containment card?" Bridge yelled. "You can thank Nyx for that. You'll never recapture me!" The bat yelled in response. "Alright Rangers. Let's do this!" Bridge yelled.
"One! S.P.D. Red Ranger!"
"Two! S.P.D. Blue Ranger!"
"Three! S.P.D. Green Ranger!"
"Four! S.P.D. Yellow Ranger!"
"Five! S.P.D. Pink Ranger!"
"Rangers ready! Space Patrol Delta, defenders of Earth!" The S.P.D. Rangers yelled.
"Forceful as Fire, Red Earth Force Ranger!"
"Powerful as the Earth, Yellow Earth Force Ranger!"
"Graceful as Water, Blue Earth Force Ranger!"
"Bright as Lightning, Pink Earth Force Ranger!"
"Tougher than Titanium, Black Earth Force Ranger!"
"It's our duty to protect this planet! United we stand! Power Rangers Earth Force!"
We charged Broodwing and Nyx, and used our special weapons. Broodwing blasted us with lightning, and Nyx blasted us with magic. We all scattered, and Bridge and Zemariah blasted them in return. Andrew and Halcyon struck with their swords, while Syd and I used our lasers.
The ten of us regrouped. "Canine Cannon!" Bridge ordered, and a robotic dog, RIC, came in and transformed into a massive cannon. "Power Blaster!" Zemariah yelled. We took hold of the powerful weapon. We blasted Nyx, who flew backwards, and teleported away. "You won't recapture me!" Broodwing yelled, and jumped up into a massive robot that appeared out of nowhere, avoiding the blast from the cannon.
"Delta Command Megazord!" Bridge ordered, and S.P.D. Headquarters turned into a massive Megazord. We called on our own Megazord, and joined the S.P.D. Megazord. Broodwing blasted us with lasers, but we returned the favor. "Let's finish this!" Bridge's voice came over our comms. "Earth Force Megazord, Final Strike!" Zemariah yelled. We wiped out the robot, and the S.P.D. Rangers recaptured Broodwing, who was screaming and pounding on the containment card.
"Thanks for the help you guys. You showed excellent teamwork." Bridge commented. "No problem. It was an honor to fight with you guys." Zemariah responded. "The honor is all ours." Andrew grinned. We nodded. "If you need help with the Dark Void, just let us know, and we'll be there." Z added. "Thank you. We have to go. We'll see you guys another time." I said, and we teleported back to Dr. O's house.
"You guys did great." Dr. O said, after we took turns explaining what had just happened. He nodded. "You guys should get some rest. You can go back to what you were doing before. I'll see you guys at school." Dr. O said. We said goodbye to Halcyon and Selina, and the three of us teleported to Zemariah's house.
I collapsed on the chair, while Zemariah and Kalina fell onto the sofa. "Are you guys alright? You look pretty banged up." Zephyr said. "We're fine, just really tired." Kalina responded. "I made steak if you guys are hungry." Zephyr added. After we were done eating, we hung out in the living room. "Hey, during Christmas break, do you want to come to Mirinoi with me?" I asked my two friends. "Of course, we'd love to." Kalina responded. Zephyr added, "I'm guessing I'm allowed to come as well." I hesitated for a second, but the smile on her face suggested she was joking.
"Of course you are." I said. "You guys should get some rest. There will be plenty of time to relax tomorrow." Zephyr commented. "Alright, we'll get some sleep." Zemariah said, she looked slightly irritated.
We all headed up to our rooms. Before I walked into my room, I turned to my friends. "Thank you so much for making me feel good earlier. That really meant a lot to me. And you're right, I'll find someone soon, I just have to be patient. " I said. "No problem. We're always here for you, don't forget that." Zemariah responded, as she and Kalina both hugged me. "Good night. We'll see you in the morning." Kalina said.
I picked up my tablet, and began scrolling through pictures. The first one was of her and dad with their respective Galactabeasts, the Wolf and Gorilla. The next, they were with Uncles Leo, Mike, and Damon, and with Aunt Kendrix and Aunt Karone. The most recent picture, mom and dad were on a date. I smiled at the pictures. I pressed the button that would allow me to call my parents.
After the S.P.D. Rangers defeated the Troobian Empire, they built tablets that allowed aliens living on Earth to call family who were living on other worlds. After five rings, the call went to voicemail. I pouted. "Hi Mommy and Daddy, I hope you and the others are doing OK. I just wanted to call and say I love and miss you. I'll be visiting Mirinoi during Christmas break next month, and bringing my friends. Also, me and my four friends are the newest Power Rangers, so yeah. Love you guys. Call me when you can. Goodnight!" I said, before sending the voicemail. I turned the lights off, and pulled the covers over myself, falling asleep instantly.
