In the year 3002 changes were rapidly appearing through their time. People were disappearing before their very eyes, buildings were coming apart and darkness was taking over. Alarms were going off inside Time Force HQ. People and law enforcement officers were running all over the place, some running in fear for their lives, others trying to figure out what happened. Time Force officers Lucas, Katie, Trip and Alex were running as fast as they could to the time ship docking bay. Time was running out for them. "We have to hurry, I can already feel the changes taking place," cried Trip his gem on his forehead was warning him, there wasn't much time left soon everything would be gone. The four ran inside the time ship. Lucas took control he began setting up the time ship to travel through time.
"Almost got it," said Lucas pushing the buttons making sure everything was set up right. The engines began powering up, the others took their seat. Then something happened the engines stopped, the docking bay would not open. Everyone looked at each other in fear. They didn't have time for this to be happing. The future was falling apart before their very eyes.
"What's wrong, why isn't it working?" asked Katie her voice was frantic. They didn't have the time for the ship to be malfunctioning. Lucas pushed a few buttons he was shaking to death; he couldn't believe this was happening.
"The docking bay it won't move, without it we won't be able to travel through time," said Lucas studiedly looking up at his friends. Alex took a deep breath; he knew what he would have to do.
"The future's changing too fast, soon all of this will be gone. Including us," he began to get up the three rangers looked at him, questionably. "I'm going to have to move it manly, once the docking bay is open, start the engines back up and get out of here as fast as you can," yelled Alex, starting to run out of the ship.
"But what about you?" asked Trip concerned for his commanding officer, Alex slowly turned around. The rangers looked at him, in fear his very figure was slowly beginning to fade away. He looked almost like a ghost to them. That could only mean one thing the future was changing before their eyes. And something may, will or already has happened to one of their friends. Alex briefly looked down at his fading hand, he gulped in deeply. This wasn't good, something bad had happened.
"Don't, worry about me; the past needs you. That's an ORDER. Is that understood?" he yelled his eyes glaring at them. They all responded with a nod. Alex took one last look at them, knowing they were all wondering one thing. Would they ever see each other again? Alex quickly bolted out of the time ship, he ran to the docking back control room.
He looked around his heart racing he saw the control lever, he quickly grabbed a hold of it. He knew he was getting weaker every second that passed. His body began fading more and more, and he could see the control room starting to come apart. "Come on, come on," he yelled. Alex began to push with all he had, with one hard and final push he did it. The docking bay door began to open. He watched as the engines came back on. "Good luck rangers, and be careful," said Alex watching as the time ship disappeared, heading back to the past. Then the space around him exploded leaving nothing but air, and smoke. Nothing was left to be seen, the future had changed. Everything they had worked for was gone, nothing was left but darkness.
Fire, smoke and explosions were every where the Time Force red ranger ran with a group of Silver Guardians. They were heading right at an army of CellBorgs, gun blast were going all over the place. Combining with the fire created massive explosions, the red ranger took lead heading right at the CellBorgs with the gold trim, the fire clashed around them. He never saw it coming there was a huge and massive explosion. The Silver Guardians pulled back, and once the smoke cleared few CellBorgs destroyed bodies surrounded their surroundings, but there was no sign of the red ranger. One of the men walked up ahead finding nothing but a red beret, the commander's hat.
Somewhere underneath the ground, Silver Guardians aided others who were injured and helping wrap blankets around them. Eric stood in the corner looking over papers what appeared to be the markings of attack zones. He then looked up when he saw two officers approach him, he looked at them questionably in their hands they held up Wes's hat. Eric looked at the hat and then back to them. In the corner a young woman with brown hair watched as Eric spoke to them. She did not hear what they were saying, but their jester said it all. Tears fell from her eyes, "Noooo" she cried out.
"Noooo, Wes…" cried out Jen. She woke up, she then looked around everyone was sleeping, most where huddle together trying to keep warm. Max, Alyssa, Danny, Merrick, and Cole were all huddle close together. Other Silver Guardians were also huddle close together, and so were some of Silver Hills citizens. Jen turned her head and found Wes's hat lying next to her. She picked it up and held it close to her, taking in its scent. "Wes…" she cried softly, tears running down her cheeks.
Eric was in a back room underground, he wore a coat over his uniform and a Silver Guardian hat. He was sitting in a chair going over papers mostly of charts, graphs and maps of the city. He didn't even notice Taylor walk in she also wearing a coat, without the sun the planet was slowly losing all the warmth it once had. "Hey," she said. Eric about jumped he pulled his blaster pointing it right at her getting ready to shoot, until his eyes caught who it was. Eric lowered his arms down pointing the gun away from Taylor.
"Sorry, have to be careful these days," said Eric. Taylor smiled she walked over to him and took a seat.
"Yeah I know. What are you looking at?" asked Taylor leaning over to see the papers Eric was looking at. That's when she saw the map he had been charting, she recognized the place right away. "You think he's still alive don't you?" asked. Eric turned looking her in the eyes, giving a brief smile.
"Maybe, we never found a body. He could still be out there, somewhere," said Eric hoping he was right. Taylor gave a brief smile, but she wasn't too sure. She looked doubtful, like she had accepted what happened.
"It's been two months Eric. We all may have to come to realize Wes is gone. It's not healthy putting all your effort in lost hope, for you, for Mr. Collins, and for Jen," said Taylor softly. Eric put his head down. Part of him knew she was right. But the rest of him did believe there was still a chance. He couldn't give up on Wes, he was his friend and he knew Wes would do the same for him.
"I know, but I have to try. I need to do this for Jen, she hasn't been the same sense…," Eric couldn't finish, it hurting all too much.
"I know, she hasn't been sleeping well keeps waking up with nightmares. And when she's awake all she does is work and train, keeps pushing herself," said Taylor knowing Eric was right. Ever sense Jen found out about Wes's so called death. She had become tougher; she wouldn't talk to anyone about what she was feeling. Suddenly an alarm began going off, loud voice were saying.
"Move, move" Eric and Taylor both looked up they knew what that meant. It was an all too familiar noise.
"Come on time for work," said Eric getting ready, he got up from his seat adjusted his weapon. Taylor followed after him and then the two ran out of the room, running with the other Guardians.
Jen was alone standing in front of a wall that had a drawling of a CellBorg painted on it. Several blast shots were visible in placed in the wall. Jen looked at it angrily she raised her arms, blaster in hands, fingers griping around the trigger.
Jen put her hands firmly on Wes arms. "Please Wes, don't go I have a bad feeling about this," said Jen worriedly. A group of guardians were behind her a few feet away, waiting for their commander. Wes put his arms around Jen.
"Hey, were going to get through this. Were going to get married Jen I know we will," said Wes as he kissed Jen softly on the lips, putting his arms around her holding her close to him. "But I have to go, my squad is on call"
Jen shot her gun. The blast went right on target hitting the CellBorg in the neck. Her structure was stern all her effort was going into this. She reloaded her weapon. Her arms began shaking as she stared the drawling in the eyes. Tears began to build up, as another memory flashed over in her mind.
Wes slowly pulled away from the hug, he smiled back at her. "I love you Jen, forever," said Wes.
"I love you too Wes," said Jen as she leaned closer to Wes kissing him softly. When the kiss was finished, Wes walked passed her joining his men. But before he walked off with them, he turned around looking at her once more.
"I promise I'll come back," he whispered. Jen then watched as Wes left with the guardians.
Jen shot the weapon again hitting the CellBorg drawling in the head. "Jen," said a voice. Jen quickly turned around pointing her blaster as the one who called her name. If Jen hadn't taken the time to see who it was she would have shot him. Collins looked at her sadly. He knew her pain, he too felt it. Jen feeling all her anger and sadness build up she dropped her gun to the ground, everything was just happening too fast. Collins walked closer to her, putting his arms around her like she was his child. And in a way she was, Wes was going to marry her. Jen just fell into his arms, she felt so lost, so unsure. All she wanted was make the CellBorgs pay for what they did to Wes. Pay for what they took from her, her life, her love.
"I miss him so much," cried Jen, tears running down her face.
"I know, I miss him too," said Collins softly, he remembered the day Eric came to him and told him.
Collins was sitting at his desk, when Eric walked in carrying in his hands Wes's hat. Collins looked up at Eric wondering, what it could be? First he thought it was another attack just like the other ones. Or maybe one of the other ranger teams had contacted them? He remembered Eric not saying a word, he just placed Wes's hat in front of Collins. Collins looked at the hat, feeling something in the pit of his stomach. He then looked up at Eric, no smile, only sadness in his eyes. Eric was doing all he could to hide his tears. Collins never said a word he turned his head looking at a photo that was on his desk it was of him and Wes. Collins put his head down, closing his eyes.
The memory faded from Collins, he knew he had to be strong. He had to be strong for Jen, for the Guardians, he knew that was the way Wes would want it. "It's going to be okay Jen, everything is going to be okay," he said softly.
