It was another day at Rita's moon palace- well, maybe another night. Not that you could really tell, what with it being the moon and all. Well, anyway, it was another day at the moon palace, and as usual, that meant headaches and screaming.
"HOW CAN WE DEFEAT THE POWER RANGERS?!?" Rita screamed out while holding her head. "No matter what I do, they always beat me! Send down a monster, it gets its butt kicked. Make it big, the stupid Megazord just blows it up! What am I supposed to do to win?!?"
"What about the Pink Power Coin, my Queen?" Goldar said with a sigh.
Honestly, sometimes she's very scatter-brained. Goldar thought to himself.
"Ah, yes! The Pink Power Coin!" Rita exclaimed.
"But, wait a second." Finster said, interjecting himself into the conversation. "That coin was only meant to be one of the original 5 Rangers. It's powers aren't enough alone for someone to take down the 5 current ones, especially with the Green Ranger, Tommy, the most powerful Ranger of all, on their side!"
"Well, of course not!" Rita exclaimed. "That is why we power it up!"
"Power it....up?"
"Yes! Have you forgotten that I'm a space witch? With lots of magic? I'll use my magic to increase the energy of the Pink Power Coin to rival that of the Green coin!"
She has a point, and now this is going to replace my monsters! Finster thought.
"Well....that's all well and good." Finster said, rubbing his glasses. "But wait a second! You need a human to morph into the Pink Power Ranger! Who are you going to find that's willing to join us?"
"No one, you fool!" Rita yelled. "That's what a spell is for! Ahahaha! Now come! We have much to prepare!"
Meanwhile, Tommy and Jason walked through the hall of Angel Grove High, another
school day for the two of them. The two "bros" had grown close through
their battles against Rita, being the most physically gifted of the Ranger team
by far.
"Hey, Jason, who is that?" Tommy said, pointing to someone who caught his eye.
Tommy watched the short, beautiful girl brush her brown hair backwards. Dressed in a pink shirt and blue jeans, she managed to stand out from the rest despite her relatively plain clothing.
"Oh, that's the new girl. I think her name's Kimberly. Yeah, that sounds about right."
"You met her?" Tommy asked him.
"Yeah." Jason replied. "Mr. Caplan asked me to show her around a bit this morning before first period. Why?"
"Uh, no reason in particular." Tommy said quickly, but it was too late.
"I think you have the hots for her!" Jason said, grinning. "Well, come on over and I'll introduce you!"
"No, wait....!" Tommy went to say, but Jason was already pulling on his right wrist, taking him over to Kimberly's locker.
Kimberly turned around and saw Jason pulling another boy towards her, and looked a bit confused. Still, she smiled at them.
Even her smile is perfect! Tommy thought as he looked at her perfect white teeth.
Kimberly looked over to the other boy and suddenly he began to catch her eye.
Who is that? He's kind of cute. Okay, REALLY cute! Kimberly thought, blushing.
"Hey, it's Kimberly, right?" Jason asked her.
"Ye-Yeah..." Kimberly hushed, still blushing.
"Well, umm, this is my friend Tommy." Jason said, introducing him. "I figured you might want to meet some more people from, you know, around."
"Oh, okay." Kimberly managed to get out.
Tommy nervously extended his right hand. "I'm Tommy." he said. "But, uh, I guess you already knew that. Since, umm, Jason just....*sigh* told you."
Oh, great Tommy, real smooth! he thought to himself, smacking his forehead with his other hand.
"It's a ple-pleasure to meet you, Tommy." Kimberly replied, extending hers.
They shook, and then didn't break hands as they stared into each other's eyes for a few moments. Finally they looked down, and realized they were still holding hands, and each pulled away at the same time.
"Whoops!" Tommy said.
"Sorry, sorry!" Kimberly said.
Jason couldn't help but laugh.
Meanwhile, Rita, Goldar, and Finster filed into another room, with a cement
slate big enough for a person in the middle of it, and a small stand on the
other side.
Rita walked up to the stand. She looked down, seeing that it had six different holes in the base of it- one in the center, five surrounding it. She placed the Pink Power Coin in the center hole, then raised her wand.
"Using the power of evil, I hereby power up the spirit of the Pterodactyl!" Rita yelled. "Become the strongest Power Coin of them all!"
Red energy shot out of the top of her wand and into the Pink Power Coin. After a few moments, it stopped, and the Power Coin glowed red.
"Good." Rita said with an evil grin. "Now, spirit of the Pterodactyl, show me the human who is best fit to receive your incredible powers!"
The coin glowed red again, before projecting an image above them.....of Kimberly's face.
"Ahahahaha!" Rita laughed. "Now, with the new Pink Ranger chosen, nothing can stop me from destroying the Power Rangers!"
To Be Continued....
