I do not own Power rangers SPD. Disney does. I do not own Zeo or Turbo Power Rangers. Saban Enterprise and Fox Kids does!
The only thing I do own is my character Emma.
The alarm sounded. Kat hurried to the computer as Sky, Syd, Z, Bridge, Tommy, Jason and Rocky turned.
"Emma?" Z asked. Kat pulled the map up on the screen. Sky, Syd, Bridge and Z examined it.
"Yes." Kat replied. "Hurry. I can't receive a video feed and she may be in trouble."
"Right." Sky looked at Syd, Z and Bridge. "Ready?"
"Ready."
"SPD Emergency."
"It's Morphin' time." Tommy said.
"Zeo Ranger 3, Blue."
"Zeo Ranger 5, Red."
"Gold Ranger Power."
"Let's go." Sky said, leading the way.
"Billy." Kat said, making Billy turn from the computer. Cruger was standing with Kat. "You've spent time with Emma, correct?"
"4 weeks, even though I wasn't around much for the last week."
"We met you before, twice, but the last two weeks, '95 and '96, how was Emma?"
"1996 was hard for her, but you will have to ask Tommy, Rocky, Jason and Adam." Billy told them. "In 1995, she helped out Ernie at the Youth Center. She got along well with everyone, except for Katherine. Her and Adam became close too. She even helped me build a machine to save Tommy."
"She had fun?"
"Yeah, she really did and she was always willing to help." Billy explained. "No matter the situation." Kat smiled.
"Thank you." Kat said.
"So, can you explain to me how we are getting back to Angel Grove?"
I quickly threw up another way of vines, buying Adam and I some time to regroup after fighting Tanya and Katherine in hand to hand combat. We regrouped behind the cage.
"Did you notice anything strange with their eyes before they morphed?" I asked, trying to catch my breath. I was trying not to harm them, but I was becoming worn out.
"Strange?" Adam asked, looking behind him where the vines were. "How?"
"It's like their being controlled. They are getting progressively stronger as the battle goes on. My walls of defense are only buying us a little time." The vine walls were destroyed.
"Ok." Adam said, looking back at me. "I see your point." I turned and brought my hands down, making the ground shake. I brought up more vines, which grabbed on to Tanya and Katherine yet again. I then focused on freezing their feet to the ground before putting up a wall of fire. I sat down on the ground, feeling extremely dizzy.
"Hey, are you ok? You don't look too well."
"Adam…I can't do this…" I said slowly, trying to shake the dizziness. "I can't keep doing this…"
"Do you think your plan worked?" Adam asked.
"Let's hope so." We watched as Kat and Tanya broke free of the vines and ice. I stood up. "I didn't want to hurt them, but it seems we have no choice." I moved closer to the wall of fire and with a flick of my hand, it was gone. Adam came and stood next to me.
"We have to continue fighting. The real Tanya and Kat are in there somewhere." I nodded in agreement and Tanya and Katherine walked towards us.
"Do your worst." I said to Katherine and Tanya. "I will not back down."
"So, White Ranger, you still haven't given up?" Stinger asked, laughing slightly.
"Never have. Never will." Katherine and Tanya charged at Adam and I. Katherine fought against me, Tanya against Adam. Everything was going so fast, I never noticed a Red Ranger move between Katherine and I.
"Katherine, what are you doing?" It was Tommy. Jason had stepped between Adam and Tanya. Adam pulled me back.
"It worked." Adam said with a smile. "Your plan worked."
"Troobians!" Stingray yelled. "Stop them."
"We'll handle the Troobians." Sky said to Tommy. "You try to snap your friends out of it."
"Right." Tommy and Jason said, keeping their focus on Katherine and Tanya. Z walked up to me. Tommy and Jason had gotten Katherine and Tanya demorphed. How I don't know.
"Here, you might need this." Z said, handing me my morpher.
"Awesome. Thanks" I said, clipping my morpher to my belt.
"You're not going to morph?" Z asked.
"I'm exhausted and just ready to finish this." I said, stepping in front of everyone. "Stand back." I brought my hands in front of me, keeping my gaze on the Troobians. I made a fireball and aimed it towards the Troobians. However, instead of my intended fireball, a big blast of fire hit them instead.
"Whoa." I heard behind me by multiple people. I was surprised as well, as the blast took out over half of the Troobians. The fire blast distracted Tommy and Jason long enough for Katherine and Tanya to make a run for me.
"Katherine! Tanya! No!" Tommy yelled, sprinting forward. I quickly turned and froze their feet to the ground.
"Can't you see I'm on your side?" I exclaimed in frustration. I stared into their eyes. "I knew it!"
"Emma?" Jason asked, hurrying over with Tommy.
"They're under a spell. Stingray must have found out that we didn't…don't…see eye to eye."
"We need to break their spell." Rocky said.
"We'll finish of the Troobians and stop Stingray." Sky said. Sky, Syd, Bridge and Z came and stood by me. I grabbed my morpher.
"SPD Emergency!" I morphed. We jumped into battle.
"Come on Katherine. Snap out of it." Tommy said; as Katherine and Tanya were struggling getting their feet unfroze. "We're your friends."
"Tommy…" Katherine said slowly. "We need to stop Emma…"
"No, we need to stop you." Adam said. "Emma's over there fighting our way out." Tanya and Katherine broke free, but Jason and Tommy stopped them before getting too far.
"She was fighting us. She's the reason we're in this mess." Tanya stated.
"She didn't want to fight you." Adam explained quickly. "All the vines, walls and freezing your feet was to stop you. She was afraid of hurting you." Jason and Tommy turned Katherine and Tanya around to face the battle as it finished.
"5 new rangers?" Tanya asked confused.
"Your times up, Stingray." Sky said.
"What are you and the Dark Wizard up to?" Syd asked.
"See ya Rangers!" Stingray laughed, and in a puff of smoke, he was gone. I turned and saw Tanya and Katherine watching, Tommy and Jason holding them back. I walked up to them; Sky, Syd, Z and Bridge right behind me. I stopped in front of Katherine and Tanya.
"Power down." I said, demorphing. The other rangers followed suit. "I made a promise that I wouldn't morph into my ranger uniform until I was back into my time with my fellow rangers." I gave them a small smile. "I didn't morph to prove to you that I am a ranger, I morphed because that's what rangers do when a situation calls for it." Adam stood next to me, patting my shoulder.
"Is that enough for you?" Adam asked. Tanya and Katherine said nothing. I closed my eyes, suddenly feeling super dizzy. I grabbed Adam's arm, keeping myself from falling over.
"Emma? Are you ok?" Z asked, looking at me.
"I'm ok…" I said slowly. "Just a little dizzy."
"Let's head back to the Command Center." Sky said. "We have to explain everything and send you all back to your time."
"Right." Jason said. "Let's go." Everyone started towards the entrance. I fell behind. Tommy and Jason walked with Tanya and Katherine. Rocky and Adam were walking a head of me, but both of them stopped when they noticed I was falling behind.
"You sure you're ok?" Rocky asked.
"You've been struggling for a while." Adam said. "Since way before everyone showed up."
"I'll…be fine." I said simply. "Just tired." Adam wrapped his arm around my shoulder.
"You were great." Adam said. "You lost most of the color in your face though."
"I didn't realize you could control fire." Rocky said as we kept walking, Adam supporting me.
"It was only water when I met you." I explained. "Just recently I got my fire, earth, ice, wind and light power back."
"Nice." Rocky said.
"You have a lot to explain." Jason said to Emma when Adam, Rocky and I met up at the SPD Jeeps. Sky was sitting on his bike.
"When we get back." I said, climbing into the jeep with Syd. Rocky, Jason and Adam climbed into the back. Z had Bridge, Tommy, Tanya and Katherine in the other jeep.
"Let's go." Sky said, leading the way.
"Is everyone alright?" Kat asked when we walked into the Command Center.
"Emma's been feeling dizzy." Adam said.
"Was she using her powers frequently?" Kat asked. "Her powers drain her energy."
"Yeah. Vine walls, fire walls, a blast of fire." Adam explained. Kat looked slightly confused, but she ignored it. "She didn't want to fight Kat and Tanya so she went into defense mode."
"I'll relax after this." I said. "I explained a little on the way up, but we will send you back to your time to when the Dark Wizard and Stingray appeared." I explained. "You won't remember a thing."
"And everything will be back to the way it is supposed to be." Billy, who was stood next to Kat, said. "At least that is what Dr. Manx told me."
"May we have a brief moment with you?" Kat asked the rangers. "Preferably the four of you" Kat said, motioning towards Tommy, Adam, Rocky, and Jason.
"Ok…" Tommy trailed off. "Sure." Kat turned towards me.
"Emma, go meet with Dr. Felix. You will have your chance to say goodbye." Kat said.
"I'll be fine."
"That's an order, Cadet." Cruger said sternly. Jason, Rocky, Adam and Tommy exchanged glances.
"Yes Sir." I turned and walked out of the Command Center.
"The rest of you may go." Cruger said Sky, Syd, Z and Bridge followed out behind me.
"We'll be right back." Katherine said. Katherine and Tanya left the Command Center.
"What's going on?" Tommy asked confused.
"We just need to ask a few questions." Kat said simply.
"Questions?" Adam asked, also confused.
"You spent time with Emma in '95 and '96, correct?"
"Yeah." Rocky said slowly.
"Since 1993 actually." Tommy said.
"We already talked to you about '93 and '94, but we want to know how Emma was."
"She didn't tell you?" Jason asked, sounding surprised.
"She did not." Kat said simply. "Just a few letters, but that was all."
"She didn't want to leave." Tommy said firmly. "She missed being a ranger, but she finally had time to figure out who she was and who she wanted to be. She had fun."
"She helped the rangers out as much as she could." Adam added. "She and Kim were close in 1995, so it was hard for her when Kim was no longer there." Adam looked at his friends. "She didn't trust Katherine in 1995 and Kat and Tanya don't trust her now, hence the battle we just endured." Adam explained. "She and I also started spending a lot of time together."
"She practiced Martial Arts with the four of us, as a way to stay in shape, but also as a time to spend with each other." Rocky said, motioning to his fellow rangers. "She helped Ernie at the Juice Bar, and last year, she was there for Kim when Kim's Power Coin was stolen and as in the hands of Rita and Zedd."
"She stayed with me and my family when she was here in 1996 as an exchange program we made up as a cover story. We played games with my parents and my parents loved her." Jason explained. "She had a real family for a week."
"She didn't like being way from her fellow rangers." Tommy said. "Even when she wanted to stay, being here was all she could think about."
"Thank you." Kat said, giving them a smile.
"A little rest will do you well." Dr. Felix said. "Take it easy for the rest of the night."
"Thanks Dr. Felix." I said, getting off the bed. I walked out the door and noticed Katherine and Tanya waiting for me. I stopped and looked at them confused. "Can I help you?" I asked, slightly irritated.
"We need to have another girl talk." Tanya said, glancing at Kathrine.
"Last time we had a girl talk, you called me evil and thought I was going to betray the rangers."
"It's not like that." Kathrine said, quickly defending herself. I gave her a look. "Promise."
"Alright. I'm listening." I said, folding my arms.
"We want to apologize." Tanya said slowly. "For everything."
"Tommy explained to us what could have happened in our battle." Katherine started. "And knowing how you fought cogs and putties, I thought I knew most of your battle style." Kathrine paused. "I jumped to conclusions and never actually tried to get to know you."
"Same here." Tanya added. "If things were different, I would change it."
"You do Tanya." I sighed, unfolding my arms. "Next year, you realize everything and make amends."
"Really?" Tanya asked. I nodded.
"Let's go. It's time for you to go back to your time and it's time for me to follow orders." I led the way back to the command center.
"Are you ready?" Kat asked, as Katherine and Tanya walked in.
"Yes." Katherine said.
"Angel Grove needs us." Tommy stated. I nodded.
"Good luck." I said, and the rangers were gone.
"Emma, what did Dr. Felix say?" Kat said, turning the attention onto me.
"Rest." I told her. "Take it easy for the rest of the night."
"The green ranger,"
"Adam."
"Yes, Adam, said you used your powers quite a bit. Vine walls, fire walls and a blast of fire."
"I did, a lot in that battle, and before when Sky and I were ambushed by Stingray and an army of Cogs in '96."
"Go rest." Kat said. "We will need you at full health." I nodded, turned and headed back to the lounge where the other rangers were.
"You ok?" Syd asked when she saw me walk in.
"Yeah, just ready to sleep for the next 20 years." I said, grabbing an apple and a bottle of water.
"We're you going to tell us about your other powers returning?" Syd asked. I should have seen that coming.
"Eventually." I said slowly, sitting down on the couch. "I was afraid. Afraid that it would only be temporary and I didn't want to get my hopes up, only to be brought done again." I explained, taking a bite of my apple. "And it is still a possibility. I've only had my powers back for a few days." I told them before continuing my apple.
"Well, I think they came back stronger." Sky stated simply, keeping his focus on his book.
"But why though?" I asked. "Why disappear then return months later?"
"No one knows." Sky said, still focusing on his book. "But they are back, so make use of them." I finished my apple.
"I'm going to bed." I said, standing up and throwing away my apple core. I headed to my room, got into my pajamas, took a drink from my water before climbing into bed and falling asleep quickly.
The following morning, I slept til 9am. Of course, everyone was up before me, even Syd.
"You slept late" Z stated as I walked out of my room. I was dressed in jeans and a t-shirt, ready just in case we needed to time travel.
"Over 12 hours to be exact." Sky said. "You ok?"
"I was very, very exhausted." I said slowly. "With time traveling and the extreme use of my powers, I guess it wore me out." I grabbed an apple and joined the others on the couch. "More than I thought." I started eating.
"You look a lot better though." Syd pointed out. "Adam was right, you did lose the color in your face." I smiled slightly before continuing to eat.
"They really did care for you, didn't they?" Z asked. I looked at her confused.
"Did? They still do." I told her. "Tommy, Adam, Jason, Kim, Billy...they knew me and saw me the most over the course of the time I was gone." I finished my apple. "That's why they are family." I stood up and threw away the apple core. "Just like we are."
"So, your powers are back." Syd said, changing the subject. I sighed.
"Didn't I explain it already?" I asked, walking back over.
"We have time now." Z said, putting her book down. I joined her and Syd on the couch. Sky put his book down and Bridge put his comic down.
"What do you want?"
"We want a more, in-depth, story. So, start explaining." Sky said.
"Fine." I sighed. "I only got them back recently" I started. "It actually surprised me when they did return." I looked at my fellow rangers. "It wasn't until the Dark Wizard went back to 1993 and took the rangers, except for Tommy. While Alpha was searching for the missing rangers, I asked Zordon about the Coin of Destruction."
"What?" Z, Syd and Bridge exclaimed. They looked at Sky.
"Yep. She did." Sky verified.
"And so Zordon had Alpha scan for a powerful energy source, using the Medaglia of Gods. We found it." I explained.
"And this explains your powers how?" Syd asked.
"You wanted in-depth, I'm giving in-depth." I said. "So, while Sky and Jack went and dealt with Soccodillo, Tommy and I were teleported to the location of the Coin of Destruction. The Medaglia of Gods started glowing, until it flew out of my hands and onto the ground. I grabbed and pocketed the Medaglia of Gods and started digging. Just as I found the Coin of Destruction, the ground started breaking right underneath the Coin of Destruction. I lunged for it and Tommy grabbed my arm, pulling me back up." I paused to catch my breath. "I retrieved the Coin of Destruction before it got lost underground."
"You actually retrieved it?" Bridge asked, intrigued. I nodded.
"We were about to leave to join Jack and Sky when Goldar appeared."
"Who's Goldar?" Z asked.
"A gold monkey with wings." Sky explained.
"Goldar worked for Rita Repulsa, who sent him down to stop me under orders from the Dark Wizard." I explained. "Goldar brought an army of putties with him. Tommy and I started to fight them off. Most of the putties focused on Tommy. Goldar used that to capture me and bring to Rita's Dark Dimension."
"That's when Tommy returned to the Command Center where we learned all this." Sky said. "Zordon had Alpah scanning for Emma's location, so they could teleport Tommy to her."
"But before Tommy appeared, I went face to face with Goldar. That's when I learned the Dark Wizard's plan for Rita to take action if the White Ranger showed. Goldar had turned away to leave, and I got mad. All of the sudden there was fire coming from my hands. Tommy came to the rescue and then we returned to 2026." I finished. "And that is how my powers returned, or how I found out about it."
"That's when you discovered your powers?" Z asked. I nodded.
"Is there any connection to the Coin of Destruction bringing your powers back?" Syd asked.
"I don't know." I said slowly. "The coincidence is there."
"And your powers did come back stronger." Sky said. "That's not normal."
"The blast of fire was new." I said with a sigh.
"Yeah, that caught everyone off guard." Z stated. "Even the past rangers, which almost got you into further trouble."
"So, who all knows?" Sky asked.
"Well...after yesterday...everyone at SPD." I stated simple. "Before that, Kat and Cruger. And Tommy."
"Tommy knew before us?" Syd asked. I nodded.
"I didn't want to tell anyone because I wasn't sure they would stay." I explained "I mean, it wouldn't be the first time and I didn't want a repeat of the last time my powers disappeared." I leaned back on the couch. "That's why I practiced magic by myself. Something I might be doing more frequently." The alarms sounded. We all stood up quickly. I grabbed my shoulder bag before following the others into the Command Center.
"The Dark Wizard has gone back in time." Kat said. I grabbed my necklace.
"1997. Turbo Rangers." I said, glancing at Sky. "You ready?" I asked.
"Yes. Let's go." Sky said. He grabbed one side of the necklace. I grabbed the other and we were gone.
"Rangers. Stay close and alert." Cruger said to the others. "As we know, this is just the start."
"Right." Bridge, Syd and Z said together.
We arrived in 1997. Sky looked around as I put the necklace away.
"Parks? Why parks?" Sky asked.
"It's fairly common." I told him. "Just hope it's not a burning building."
"Wait...what?"
"Long story." I said, realizing I never went into details about my travels.
"Do tell when there is time." Sky said, still looking around.
"It's quiet." I said, also looking around.
"Way to quiet." Sky added. Sky was about to say something else, but I stopped him.
"We should keep moving."
"Where to?"
"Youth Center. Maybe Lt. Stone has seen or heard from anyone."
"Lead the way." Sky said, which made me happy that he wasn't asking questions. I led the way to the Youth Center. "You really know your way."
"Five weeks of Angel Grove." I told him, walking into the Youth Center. It wasn't as quiet as the park was. There were kids and teens doing their thing, so I walked up to the counter with a smile. "Hey Lt. Stone. Long time no see."
"Emma! Hello. It's good to see you. What are you doing here?" He asked before noticing Sky. "And who do you have with you?"
"Family Friend." I told him. "I was hoping to find, Justin, TJ, Carlos, Cassie or Ashley. Have you seen any of them?" Lt. Stone thought for a moment.
"No I haven't." Lt. Stone said. "I know there is a School Dance coming up. Maybe you can find them at the school." I smiled.
"Thanks Lt. Stone."
"Anytime. It was good to see you."
"It was good to see you too. Bye." I turned and motioned Sky to follow. We left the Youth Center and checked the necklace again. "Still 1997. They have to be here somewhere."
"Command Center?" Sky asked. "We could check there."
"Alpha might have better luck finding them." I agreed. We didn't get much time to continue when we heard screams. Sky and I exchanged glances before hurrying off in the direction of the screams. "Oh boy. Pirahnatrons."
"Pirahna what?" Sky asked.
"Pirahnatrons. Foot soldiers. Come on." I said, running towards the commotion. Sky was right behind me and we jumped into battle. We were greatly outnumbered, but that was only until I heard a familiar whistle sound.
"Right on time." I mumbled. With the help of the Blue Senterion, we were able to send the Pirahnatrons packing.
"Scondrals. They'll be back." I smiled and walked up to the Blue Senterion.
"Blue Senterion, am I glad to see you."
"Hello Emma. What are you doing back?" He asked, then looked at Sky. "Who is this?"
"Sky. A fellow ranger." I told him. "Look, I'm trying to find the rangers. Have you seen them?"
"No. I haven't seen them." I sighed. "Actually, no one has seen them. That's why I am here." I pulled out my necklace and checked the date again. 2026.
"Arg... we just missed them." I told Sky. "They were just here."
"We should go back." Sky said, as my communicator went off.
"TJ? Carlos? Ashley? Cassie? Is anyone there." I looked confused. I brought my communicator up.
"Justin?" I asked, replying to him. "It's Emma."
"Emma? What's going on? Where is everyone?" Justin asked.
"That I can explain, but not here. Can you get to the Command Center?"
"Yeah. I'll meet you there." I looked at Sky, dropping my hand.
"He left one?" Sky wondered. "Why?"
"I have a few reasons going through my head, but none of them make sense or sound good." I sighed. "Come on. Let's go." I teleported to the Command Center.
"Whoa. Emma." Alpha said. "What are you doing here?"
"I'm here to save the rangers. They were taken to the future, to my time." Justin ported in.
"What's going on? Where is everyone?" Justin asked as I used the panels to port Sky in.
"The Dark Wizard took them to the future, my time, to help Divatox." I explained. "We will go save them and send them back here. No one will remember a thing."
"Alright. What do I need to do?" Justin asked.
"Take our hands." I reached my hand toward Justin. Justin took my hand, and Sky took Justin's other hand. I grabbed the necklace and Sky took the other end and we were gone.
I am slowly getting back into things, so hopefully there will be more to come.
