AN: Here's chapter 34! The next couple chapters will be loosely based on an anime show from the 1980's. It was called The Mysterious Cities of Gold. Don't worry if you've never seen or heard of it, because you don't really need to know anything about it to read this. Everything is explained as you read. The Mysterious Cities of Gold was about three children who were searching for these cities. It is mostly fictional, but there are many historical references to people and places. The show was set in the 16th century during the time when the Mayas, Incas, and Aztecs were being conquered by the conquistadors. But the only thing I am really using from the show is places and a bit of the storyline, which will all be explained as you read. So enjoy and let me know what you think!
Dreams of a Cat and a Wolf
Chapter 34: This I Promise You
"Oh it's perfect!" Kat said, as she twirled in front of the mirror.
"That is definitely the one honey," Karen Hillard said.
"You look absolutely beautiful," Kara Cranston said. Kat beamed as she examined the dress further. It was sleeveless with off the shoulder straps. The collar was low cut and heart shaped. The torso of the dress hugged her curves perfectly. And the full, yet slim skirt flowed down to the floor. It was sparkling white and complete with a tiara veil. They bought the dress and went to the Cranston residence

"That was so much fun. It's been my dream to plan my only son's wedding," Kara said, as she served lemonade to the other two women.
~*~*~*
"Does she think we were born yesterday?" Vile said angrily.
"The saucy little thing thinks she is going to pin Dark Spector's energy drainage on us," Ooze said.
"Fortunately, I've discovered something that will give us full control of the universe," Vile began
"There is an old Indian legend about the seven cities of Cibola. They were supposed to be cities made of Gold. In this dimension, they were but a myth, but I have found the dimension where they were actually a reality," Vile said.
"That's fine, but what do we want with gold?" Ooze asked.
"It's not the gold that I'm interested in. It's what's inside the tallest tower," Vile replied.
"And what is that?"
"In the tallest tower there is a sun power unit. With this unit and its control mechanism, we will have the power to control the sun. And not just the Earth's sun, but any solar unit in the universe!" Vile said. Ivan smiled maniacally.
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go and make sure those pesky rangers don't follow us," Ooze said.
"No, let them follow us. We are going back to the 16th century. It may not be this dimension, but it is very similar. Let them follow us and we can be sure they're eliminate," Vile said.
~*~*~*
Kat teleported up to the megaship and entered the bridge, knowing she would find her wolf. Kat tiptoed behind him and wrapped her arms around his neck. Then, she sensually blew in his ear, causing him to drop the tools he was working with. Kat straddled his lap, as he assaulted her lips.
"I'll never get any work done with you here," Billy told her.
"You're welcome," Kat replied.
"I guess if you really have to work, I can leave," Kat said.
"Or you can go take all those clothes off and wait for me in the Jacuzzi on the holo deck, while I clean up here. Kat kissed him.
"Don't be too long," she said, as she left the bridge.
~*~*~*
Billy entered the holo deck, which was programmed to look like their quarters right now. He quickly changed into his swim trunks and went into the bathroom, only to see Kat in a blue string bikini. He closed the distance between them, as they slipped into the jacuzzi together.
When the visions around you
Bring tears to your eyes
And all that surrounds you
Are secrets and lies
I'll be your strength
I'll give you hope
Keeping you faith that is gone
The one you should call
We're standing here all along
"I picked out my wedding dress today," Kat mentioned.
"That's great, I can't wait to make you my wife," Billy said. Their lips met passionately, as their attention became solely focused on each other.
I've loved you forever
In lifetimes before
And I promise you never
Will you hurt anymore
I give you my word
I give you my heart
This is the battle we've won
And with this vow
Forever has now begun
~*~*~*
Vile seethed as he watched Billy make love to Katherine and the ecstasy on her face.
"Let's make our plan known to them and get on with it," Vile said irritably.
"Good idea, but Rito and Goldar are insisting on coming," Ooze said.
"Fine, maybe we'll get lucky and leave them behind," Vile replied. Ooze only chuckled humorously.
~*~*~*
A while later, Ooze and Vile suddenly appeared on the bridge of the astro megaship. Everyone, including Billy and Kat were on duty. Billy jumped in front of Kat.
"How the hell did you get here!" Billy growled, letting his wolf instincts take over.
"Pipe down power punks, we've come to deliver a message," Ooze said.
"We are on a mission. You see there is an old Indian legend about the seven cities of Cibola. They were supposed to be cities made of Gold. In this dimension, they were but a myth, but I have found the dimension where they were actually a reality. Of course it is not the gold that we are interested in, it's what's inside the tallest tower that will be our prize," Vile paused for a moment and anxiously continued, seeing that he had captivated his audience.
"In the tallest tower there is a sun power unit. With this unit and its control mechanism, we will have the power to control the sun. And not just the Earth's sun, but any solar unit in the universe!" Vile announced.
"You'll never get away with it!" Billy yelled back.
"Oh but we will. But you can follow and try to stop us if you think you actually can," Vile said, as he and Ooze, along with Rito and Goldar stepped through the dimensional portal.
"Damn them, we can't afford to send too many rangers," Tommy said.
If Vile and Ooze get a hold of a unit that can control the sun, no one will be safe. From my team, I'll send Zhane and Skull," Andros said.
"Kat and I'll go. Vile and I have a score to settle," Billy said.
"All right," Tommy agreed, knowing better than to argue with Billy when he got that look in his eye.
"Alpha, trace the dimensional opening," Andros ordered. Alpha did so and the portal opened again.
Billy joined hands with Kat, as they stepped through the portal, followed by Zhane and Skull.
~*~*~*
The four landed in a heap inside a large hole.
"What a place to land," Zhane said, as he stood up and looked up through the large hole.
"Are you okay?" Billy asked, as he helped Kat up.
"I'm okay," she answered.
"Look! A stairwell!" Skull said, as he pointed at a dark stairwell leading up.
"Let's go," Billy said, as he led the way. After what seemed like forever, they finally reached an opening and climbed out.
"Over here!" Zhane called. The others came to him and found themselves looking out over the ruins of a Mayan city.
"It's a Mayan city, a deserted one," Billy said.
"Where to now?" Skull asked. Billy took a scanner out of his pocket and began to work with it.
"With this scanner, I can keep tabs on Vile and Ooze. The others followed Billy. They left the city and came to mountains, much to their dismay. They began to climb and soon reached the top.
"Please tell me we won't have to climb anymore mountains" Kat said.
"I second that," Skull replied. The group continued on, letting the scanner guide them.
~*~*~*
They've got a lock on us," Ooze mentioned.
"Not for long, I just created a decoy signal and masked ours. The decoy signal will lead them into that marsh that is alive with alligators," Vile said. Ooze laughed evilly.
"Are we there yet?" Rito complained.
"Shut up!" the other three yelled.
~*~*~*
The group was relieved to see that the mountains were behind them. Soon, they came to a prairie. Billy checked the scanner and it showed that master Vile and his party were crossing it.
"Looks like they're crossing this prairie," Billy announced.
"Well, I guess we should too then," Zhane replied, as the party set out.
After a while, Billy began to worry as he realized that what they were walking through was no prairie.
"Eww...since when is there mud and sludge in a prairie," Kat complained, as she stepped in the squishy goo.
"Because this isn't a prairie," Billy stated.
"Then what is it?" Skull asked.
"It's a swamp. Damn it! This signal is a decoy!" Billy realized. Suddenly, Kat's scream sparked their attention. She grabbed Billy's arm, as three alligators began to come toward them.
"Oh shit!" Skull said.
"We can still morph! Let's Rocket!" Zhane said, as he and Skull transformed.
"Ninjetti! The Wolf!" Kat and Billy called. Kat used her wolf whip to swat away the alligators, while the guys used their weapons. The four rangers made their way to the lake and began to cross it on a lily pad. Zhane and Billy continued to fight off the alligators, while Skull paddled with his lunar lance. They reached safety on the other side and got far away from the swamp. Soon, they came to a second Mayan city, which was abandoned also.
"It's getting dark. Let's build a fire and get some sleep," Billy said. The rest agreed and gathered firewood. They easily started a fire with their blade blasters and Zhane opened the supply pack that Alpha had given him. The four rangers ate from the food supply and then bedded down for the night.
Just close your eyes
Each loving day
And I know this feeling won't go away
Til the day my life is through
This I promise you
Kat snuggled as close as she could to Billy, as he wrapped her in his strong arms. She turned in his embrace and he looked into her distraught eyes.
"Angel, what's wrong?" Billy asked.
"Billy, Vile is never going to stop trying to kill you. I can't live without," Kat said, trying not to cry.
"And you'll never have to," Billy replied, as he caressed her cheek. She pressed her palm against his.
Every word I say is true
This I promise you
Oh I promise you...
"Promise," Kat said.
"Promise," he replied, as he kissed her sweet lips. After that, they soon fell asleep.
AN: Hope you liked it! Look for chapter 35, coming soon! Thanks for reading and please review! Bye :)
