Chapter 7: Father's at war. Part 1.
Chelbell2016:
Ok surprise chapter for you all hope you enjoy it.
*Kick into overdrive*
Courtney's POV:
I am stood outside Rootcore with my dad. We are training. I run and jump over his head. Turning quickly I duck under a punch and sweep his feet out from under him.
He quickly gets to his feet and blocks a kick from me.
After a few minutes we finally stop and I take a sip of water.
"Well done Athena," my dad says to me making me smile. "You have come far in your training."
I nod.
"Fighting is easy for me," I tell him. "My dad has been training me for years."
He frowns as I say this and I wonder what's bugging him.
"You mean Mr. Oliver," he says and now I frown. "That man may have raised you but he is not your father."
I don't say anything I just turn away and storm off.
I don't get very far when he grabs my elbow and forces me to face him.
"Athena I am just stating facts," he says to me. "I am your father and Udonna your mother."
I tore my elbow from his grip. "Tommy Oliver took me in from day one. He raised me, fed me, taught me right from wrong. You are both my fathers wether you like it or not!"
I then flame back to Reefside where I am meeting dad and his new girlfriend.
"Dad?" I say as I enter the house.
"In the kitchen Courtney," dad says.
I go into the kitchen to see dad stood with a blond haired woman about his age.
"Hi dad," I say hugging my father.
I turn to the woman and she smiles before holding out her hand. "Hello Courtney I'm Chelsea."
I shake her hand and smile back. "Nice to finally meet you."
She nods and we all sit down to eat.
After a nice meal we sit down in the front room.
"So," I say breaking the uncomfortable silence. "How did you two meet?"
Dad smiles. "Chelsea became a teacher at Reefside high as well."
I nod and smile at the thought of my dad finally being with someone. I look around and see some different things in the house now things that only a woman would have.
"So are you two living together now?" I ask them.
Chelsea nods and I smile even more.
"We've been living together for about three months now," she informs me.
Once again I nod. This sounds like the kind of relationship my dad needs. It was just me and him for so long. Then Leanne came along and now this woman. My dad has a family now.
"What do you teach then Chelsea?" I ask her wanting to know a bit more about her.
"Physical education," she says before smiling. "And I run a gymnastics club."
"Sounds cool," I reply to her.
I look around once more and then back at dad. "Where's Leanne?"
He looks a little annoyed. "She's with Daggeron but she will not tell me what she is doing."
I laugh knowing how much it would bug him not knowing where one of us are at all times. He used to freak if I wasn't home on time. But now obviously I can protect myself.
I look at the time and realise that I need to go.
"Look at the time I've got to go and see mum and dad," I say but I am cut off by my dad T.
"He's not your father," he says and I sigh. "I raised you."
"You know you two are as bad as each other," I snap making him gasp. I have never yelled like this. "Call me when you've decided to grow up and remember that I am an adult now."
I run out of the house and into the woods that I grew up in. I have had enough with both of my fathers and I just want to bang both of there heads together.
I go deep into the woods and flame to Hartford mansion.
*Kick into overdrive*
I go in and sit down for a few minutes.
"Miss Courtney," I hear a voice say from behind me. "Are you all right?"
I turn to see Spencer watching me.
"Oh, hi Spencer," I say to him. "No I am not all right to be honest."
He comes and sits down near me.
"Is there anything I can do to help?" He asks me.
I begin to explain to him the events of today. How both my parents are acting.
"Want some advice," he says and I nod. "Tell them that there is enough room in your heart for both of them. And keep telling them until they listen to you."
I think about it and nod again.
"Thanks Spencer," I reply.
"You're welcome," he says and I get to my feet.
I decide to go and try and talk some sense into my fathers tomorrow.
*TIME SKIP*
The next morning I get up and check my phone. I see two messages.
Leanne: Courtney Dad T has gone missing. Chelsea says she has not seen him since he left to go and try and find you yesterday. Have you seen him?
Bowen: Sis dads gone missing. The last anyone knew he was training with you. When was the last time you seen or spoke to him? I am very worried as it has nearly been 24 hours since anyone has seen him. You know dad its not like him. Please message me as soon as you get this.
I frown as I read both messages. It cannot just be a coincidence that they are both missing. Where are they? I begin to think of what could have happened to them but at that moment my voice is called.
"Courtney can you come down to the command center," Mr. Hartford's voice says. "There is something you will want to see."
I flame down there. All the other rangers are all ready there. They are staring at the screen.
I look over and see the most weirdest sight. My two fathers are fighting. And whats worse they are both morphed. How did dad T get his ranger powers back.
I look to the others. "We need to get out there now."
They nod and we all go for our morphers.
"OVERDRIVE ACCELERATE!" We all yell and we finish morphing.
*Kick into overdrive*
I flame us to where my two fathers are fighting. I then spot some lava lizards not too far away.
"You guys deal with the Lava lizards," I say looking at my team. "I'm going after them two."
They all nod.
I run over and get in between the two men.
"What the hell are you two doing?" I ask them wondering what has gotten into them.
"I want to prove to you who is your real father Athena!" Dad L exclaims.
"Her name is Courtney," dad T replies.
They side step me and begin to fight again. I go to chase after them but I am shot at by lava lizards. I turn to defend myself and I worry about what I can do right now.
I kick one lava lizard in the chest and spin into another kick at one that had tried to pull a surprise attack on me. Turning to try and get back to my dads I sense dark magic. But that is not possible. We defeated all the evils of the underworld.
But I also have a feeling that it is the reason that my fathers are fighting. I see my fathers disappearing in the distance so I call out.
"FINISHIO!" I yell and the monsters disappear.
I try to run after my fathers when a dark blast suddenly hits me. I hit the ground but luckily I am not injured.
"Ok who is coward enough to attack when my back is turned?" I say.
"Now that would be me?" I hear a voice say.
I turn and shocked by who I see.
"Imperious!" I growl. "Doesn't a dead guy stay dead anymore!"
The other rangers regroup with me.
"First you can watch your fathers destroy each other," he says to me before looking around at the others. "Then I will destroy your friends and the rest of the mystic force. And then this world will be mine."
"Wanna bet!" I say deciding to go old school. "ANCIENT MYSTIC MODE!"
The others are shocked as my Armour appears. I pull my bow off my back jump into the air and begin to fire arrow after arrow at Imperious. After a few hit him he is injured and he decides to leave.
He disappears through a dark spell seal.
I turn to my friends and my armor disappears. I look around and see that neither of my fathers are anywhere to be seen. But at least know now how my father got his ranger powers back.
But I don't know how I am going to save them both. But if I don't then they could end up destroying each other. And that is the last thing I want.
"Guys," I finally say to my team making them jump. "Let's get back to Rootcore."
They nod seeing that I need to get out of here right now.
*Kick into overdrive*
We get into the base and I turn to Mr. Hartford.
"Can you try and find a magic signature?" I ask him wanting to hurry up and find my fathers right now.
Mr. Hartford looks a little unsure.
"I'm not sure," he says and I sigh. "The computers aren't built to do that. But I'll try."
Suddenly there is a cackle behind me. I turn to see the mystic mother.
"Hello Courtney," she says smiling at me. "When you find your fathers there is only one way to break the spell. You must convince them that fighting over you is pointless and that you love them both the same. Tommy Oliver is one stubborn man and so is Leanbow. But there is one thing they have in common... the urge to protect and love you."
I nod seeing the sense in this. "Thanks mystic mother. I really needed some ideas on how to help them."
She disappears once more and I turn to see my team and I smile at them.
"There is only one thing to do at a time like this," I say to them. "Time to call in the family."
I pick up the phone and ring my brothers mobile.
"Hello," Bowen's voice answers.
"Hi Bowen it's Courtney," I say glad to hear his voice. "Listen I need your help..."
