Any who on with the Fic, oh before any one asks, yes I will be bringing Kimberly into this...But this will NOT be a Tommy/Kim Fic nor Trent/Kira, One There are Plenty of Tommy/Kim fics, The world can live without this being one...(Also then they magically become the focus which I don't want.) and I respect Trent/Kira I just don't like to write it...(so these first chapters are tough to write for me). And I made up what happened to the Dragonzord coin.
Passion of Red and Yellow Chapter 4 "Tears of Thunder"
Kira Ford awoke in what seemed like a room full of puppies. Puppies...? I don't have puppy wallpaper........got to ask Mom what happened...........O wait Kira you can't she.....she.....dead along with Daddy......god why did it have to be them. Kira felt her eyes get wet, her memories of her parents suddenly flooding her. She just now realized she would never see or speak to them again. As she got up crying, she realized that she had gotten Conner to take her to his house during the night. Oh god don't tell me Conner has this Wallpaper in his room... All of a sudden to her surprise, she started laughing. Just the thought of it being Conner's room made her sadness seems small at the moment. Slowly she got up looking around to see a platoon of Stuffed animals, mostly Tigers and Bears dressed up as Power Rangers. Definitely Sakura's room.. She walked to the door, grateful that she was wearing the clothes she had changed into after she found her Parent's corpses. She looked out into the hall and went wide-eyed at the sight of Conner in only a pair of Red Boxers with Yellow Ducks on them.
"Very Cute Conner." Kira laughed, all while letting the image of Conner burn into her brain, she had no clue he looked that...well hot under his clothes.
"Thank you........Remind me never to wear these boxers again." Conner sighed, he had not planned on Kira seeing him like this...
"Actually I was referring to your Abs...." Kira laughed, somehow laughing at Conner made her feel a bit better, like she wasn't alone.
Conner just sighed as he walked toward the bathroom. "Your going to need to go aren't you..." Kira just looked at him weirdly, how exactly did he know she had to go.
"Umm yeah I felt like I haven't gone in days..." Kira blushed.
"There's a Reason, you, "Sleeping Beauty" have been asleep for 3 days..." Conner pointed out, stifling a laugh.
"3 DAYS!!! YOUR TELLING ME I'VE BEEN ASLEEP FOR THREE DAYS.....Eh hold on.." Kira quickly made her way into the bathroom. Conner just sighed at his friend as he leaned against the wall.
"Yes Kira, three days...." Conner once again had to stifle a laugh.
"CONNER NOT NOW...." Kira yelled, infuriated at her teammate, how could he do this at a time like this.
"Hey I can talk to you now, without you storming off, I like this..." Conner laughed, he could only imagine the look on Kira's face.
"Go to hell Conner.." Kira was mad, but some how her little argument with Conner made her remember the fights her mother and father had together....I wonder if me and Conner will be as happy as they were...........Wait a sec what am I thinking...I love Trent not Conner. Kira just sighed as she got up, pulling her pants up and flushing the toilet. She walked out of the room to see Conner standing there, chuckling to himself. She quickly smacked him and walked down the hall, only to hear him laugh harder as he entered the bathroom himself. As she headed downstairs she saw a bunch of luggage in the living room that weren't hers.
"What the heck is going on here?" She asked, wondering....Suddenly Eric McKnight walked out of the kitchen holding a plate with some Eggs and Pancakes on them. Smiling he put down the plate and walked over to his luggage, checking to make sure everything was there. Kira got to work eating the food, remarking how delicious it tasted.
"So...ummm Eric......ummm you cooked...umm this?" Kira asked, wondering if he was leaving and why he would be while savoring every bite of her food.
"Yeah, don't worry though, Conner cooks even better than I do." Eric laughed, remembering all the times Sakura shyly mentioned how Conner's cooking tasted better. Kira dropped her fork upon hearing that piece of information...Conner can cook? No way... I don't believe it...though if it is true, I so have to try his food... She sighed and looked over to the living room to see Conner's Daughter, Sakura, Happily dancing in circles with out a care in the world. Kira sighed, Sakura reminded her of when she was young. I miss those days...But now look at me, the fate of the world rests on my shoulders....Okay so it's the same for Conner, Ethan and Dr. O, but still Kira. Sakura soon stopped dancing and walked over to Eric, who soon gave her a quick hug. Kira started to cry suddenly remembering that her parents will never do something like that with her again. Sakura noticed this and walked over, trying to pat Kira's back with her free hand.
"Don't worry Mommy, Daddy will make your boo boos go away." Sakura tried to comfort her father's friend.
"Mommy? I'm not your mommy..." Kira said, her tears drying. Why would Sakura call her mommy...that was strange.
"Sorry about that Kira, she been calling you that since Conner brought you home. We tried to tell her you aren't but you know little girls..." Eric sighed, he had heard about the infamous temper of Kira Ford, and he really didn't want that wrath unleashed on his niece. Kira looked over to see Eric was sweating bullets. Kira Smirked, obviously Conner has been telling them stories.
"Don't worry about it Eric, if it's anyone I'm going to hurt it's Conner..." Kira laughed, scaring Eric somewhat. Sakura just laughed, just because Kira was. Conner just shaked his head as he walked into the kitchen.
"You know I heard everything you were talking about." Kira just sighed. This was really freaky how Conner and herself reminded her of parents. Was Sakura even wrong in calling her "Mommy"? She just sighed...
"I'll get you one day McKnight...Mark my words." Kira laughed again, not wanting to stop fearing her memories of her parents would depress her again. Conner just stared at her.
"Kira are you sure your all right...I mean you just lost your parents...I wasn't like, and neither was Eric..." Conner asked a bit worried "and why didn't you call the cops, no one else knows of this..."
"Listen Conner, I can't not until...Hey can I use your phone?" Conner sighed, might as well.
"Sure Kira, I don't see why not." Kira Smiled and ran to the phone quickly dialing some numbers. "Come on answer Damn it."
"Hello this is Hunter Bradley...May I ask who Conner McKnight is and How you got my unlisted number."
"Hunter, it's me, Kira, listen can you come over to Reefside for a few weeks..."
"Kira you know I can't leave the academy unless it's an emergency."
"Hunter, MY MOM AND DAD ARE DEAD" Kira yelled loud enough so the McKnight's could hear her.
"What, Aunt Jess and Uncle Steve are Dead?!" Hunter couldn't believe it, next to his parents, and Sensei Amano, Jessica and Steven Ford were the greatest Thunder Ninjas of their generation.
"Yeah, and I think you should check it out before I call the authorities. Though I should of three days ago." Hunter just sighed, why wouldn't Kira tell her that?
"All right, I just got to inform Sensei and plea him to take over the classes for me. But I should be there in five minutes..." Kira sighed a breath of relief.
"All right see you then." Kira hung up and walked back to the McKnight's who were just shaking there heads...Well Sakura had start to watch Looney Tunes. "Um guys my cousin should be over in a few minutes...so could you guys be nice to him." Conner and Eric laughed at what Kira just said. Why would they be rude to a realitive of Kira's? Kira just laughed at the guy's reaction and continued to eat her Eggs and Pancakes. Conner sighed and went over to the stove to cook himself some grub. A few minutes later Conner was distracted by the sound of knocking on his door.
"Eric, could you get the door..." Conner asked, not wanting to leave his Eggs and Bacon alone long enough to burn. Eric just replied with a nod that Conner couldn't even see and walked over and opened the door...dropping his glass of Orange Juice as he saw who it was...
"Okay can anyone tell me why the hell the head teacher of the Thunder Ninja Academy is here...?" Eric yelled. Hunter just laughed as he entered the door, soon greeted by a hug from the Yellow Ranger. Soon after the embrace, Kira turned to Eric and gave him her patented death glare...
"Eric...How do you know about the Thunder Ninja Academy...?" Eric nearly jumped out of his skin, scared out of his mind what Kira could be conjuring up...Conner laughed a bit and looked over to his daughter to see that she was copying the gesture. Conner just sighed as Hunter put his hand on Kira's shoulder...
"Kira calm down, it's okay...He's a Wind Ninja student...The relationship between the two academies have gotten better." Hunter said, trying to calm down his cousin...
"Hold on, I thought you said in that letter that their Sensei killed your parents..."
"Umm I found out it was the Brother of the Wind Sensei...not The Wind Sensei himself." Hunter told Kira half of the Truth, there was no way he could tell her about Lothor and him being a Power Ranger.
"Ahhh I see, Guys this is Cousin Hunter Bradley..." Kira said, finally introducing Hunter to the two people who didn't know him.
"Hi there I'm...."
"Conner McKnight, Caller ID and the process of elmination works wonders...so you know what happened..." Hunter asked, trying to get a grip on things
"Just that Kira called up three nights ago and said her parents were dead..." Conner sighed, wishing he knew more.
"You guys I'm sure you all love to stay and chat, but don't you and Kira have school.... Umm that is you want to go Miss Ford..." Eric sighed, again not wanting to face the wrath of Kira Ford.
"Oh I'm going, I have to let Hunter inspect the scene first...It's a Thunder Ninja thing..." Kira sighed.
Sakura quickly ran up to Kira and tugged on her shirt. As soon as she knew she had Kira's attention, she asked the question burning in her mind. "Does that mean you're a Thunder Nenja too, Mommy?" Hunter's eyes widen at the statement. He immedatily ran toward Conner, kicking him in the gut sending him reeling back in pain. Kira, frustrated, smacked Hunter on the back of the head.
"First of all, yes I am a Thunder Ninja Student...Though only in the summer...(A/N And thus explains why she wouldn't of got caught), and Hunter, Conner's been trying to get her to stop, but I'm not losing any sleep over it, now can we please go to school." Conner nodded as Hunter ninja streaked away, letting Conner and Kira head toward Conner's car.
At Reefside High...
Kira Ford got through the day with out much hassle, or emotional stress. And now it was Dr. Oliver's Science class, nothing should send me over the top here. Hunter had joined her about third period with some disturbing news...Apparently, by the way the Fords were killed, he was pretty sure a wind ninja or ninja student had killed the Fords. Kira took her seat besides Ethan James, with Hunter leaning on the wall, muttering something. What, Kira couldn't tell, but it wasn't good that was for sure. Conner walked into the class somewhat late only to get glares from his teammates and Hunter. Not wanting to know why, he just sat down as Trent Fernandez came running right in and right to his Girlfriend.
"Kira Honey-Bunny, where have you been, you didn't call or anything." Kira sighed, she really didn't want to explain to Trent what happened.
"She was with me, it was a family thing..." Hunter stepped forward, getting a good look at this Trent Guy he heard his cousin. He didn't know why but Hunter just couldn't seem to get himself to trust this Trent. Suddenly Dr. Oliver walked into the Room.
"All right sorry I'm late, I just received a call from my Finacee ...and got some major news..."
Cassidy Cornell, the prime (and only) reporter for Reefside high charged in on this piece of info like any good reporter would. "So Dr. Oliver, what is this major news, the demanding student body wants to know..."
"I don't think it's proper for a teacher to reveal that information...so let's just take our seats and start with today's lesson...which is going to be on Parental Instincts..." Kira just froze, this was not happening to her.
"All right, can any one tell me what the most basic instinct of mother would be." Dr. Oliver looked around his class to see that only Cassidy Cornell had her hand raised.
"Yes Cassidy..."
'It's to make sure the kids stay up to date in the latest of a fashion..."
"Congratulations, you just earned another week on detention..." Cassidy just sighed as Conner raised his hand. Dr. Oliver just smiled, just the person he was hoping for.
"Yes Conner..."
"It would be the survival of the young, making sure they live long enough to ensure the passing on of their genes." Conner answered. Kira all of a sudden broke down, wondering if that's what her parents were doing before they got murdered. She got up and ran out of the room crying, her cousin following close behind her. Dr. Oliver just sighed at the scene.
"All right everyone class is dismissed, and congratulations no homework." Dr. Oliver dismissed the class, watching as Most of the Students left. He noticed Conner trying to leave only to be stopped by what seemed like a pissed off Ethan. "Conner, Ethan is there a problem here?"
"Go ahead Conner, tell him what you and your brother did 4 nights ago..." Ethan barked, louder than usual.
"What...we told you the Truth about Sakura and went home...." Conner sighed what was this all about?
"Oh I just found out that Kira's parents were killed by a Wind Ninja and that your brother is one..." Ethan snarled while Dr. Oliver just sighed, at least he knew why Kira ran out of Class.
"Ethan, Come on, I doubt Eric did anything, and even if he did why are you snarling at me, heck I would join you in killing him..." Conner sighed "...And there's a whole Academy of them in Blue Bay."
"Conner's right Ethan, we can't going around playing the Blame game, we have to be rational about this...I assume that Hunter is a Ninja of some kind." Dr. Oliver looked to the Red Ranger who just sighed and nodded.
"Yeah, he's a Thunder Ninja along with Kira." Conner sighed getting up and walking toward the door, Ethan and Dr. Oliver following.
Conner sighed as he walked toward his car, a question suddenly popped into his head. "Oh wait, Dr. O, what did you mean by big news?
"Well Conner you should know the best out the Tree of us..." Dr. Oliver just smirked as he walked out of the building, with a chuckling Ethan James following. Conner just stood there dumb founded, not sure what he meant. Suddenly it came to mind, Conner just smirking as he exited the school climbing in his car. He had no sooner entered his car when his morpher went off. He quickly looked around to make sure no one was around before answering his morpher.
"Conner here, What's up?" Conner more of stated then asked a question.
"It's Kira and her Cousin, they're being attacked by some Tyrannodrones at the park, and it appears She doesn't want him to know about her being a ranger.... As she is not really doing anything." Hayley sighed as she communicated with Conner "I'll try to get Tommy and Ethan there, just hurry". Conner just sighed and drove over to the park to see Kira and Hunter trying to hold back the Tyrannodrones. Conner quickly reopened his communication with Hayley.
"Hey Hayley, just because Kira isn't making the fact she's a ranger obvious, does that mean I have to, the guy is a Thunder Ninja..." Hayley just sighed and pressed a button, causing the morpher to make a loud Buzzing noise. "I take that as a yes, man has Hayley been cranky over the last few days I wonder what here problem is." Conner quickly ran out of the vehicle and dropkicked on of the Tyrannodrones that was about to attack Hunter.
"Hey you two okay..." Conner asked getting a strange look from Hunter and a Glare from Kira.
"Why do you care, McKnight...It's not like you're a power ranger or anything..." Hunter snarled, though slowly realizing even if Eric had killed his aunt and Uncle, Conner had nothing to do with it. Suddenly to Conner's displeasure, The White Ranger had shown up.
"Hello Conner, it seems like a good day to kill or rather in your case, a good day to die." The white Ranger taunted making Conner clench his fist. The White Ranger just threw his head back in laughter as Zeltrax and a few dozen Tyrannodrones appeared. Kira just sighed, there was no way she was going to reveal her secret identity to her cousin, head teacher of a secret ninja academy or not. Conner on the other hand had already revealed his morpher.
"Conner what is that?" Hunter asked, it looked like a morpher, but Conner couldn't be a ranger...could he.
"What do you think? DINO THUNDER POWER UP HA!" Conner activated his morpher transforming him into the Red Dino Thunder Ranger once more. Hunter had to admit he was amazed, how could some one as idiotic as Dustin become a red ranger. Kira just sighed as Conner turned around.
"You two can not tell a soul what you just saw okay?" Conner demanded as he pulled out his Thunder max saber and charged the White Ranger. Kira just sighed, when she suddenly heard a couple of Raptor Riders coming her way. She looked up and was relived to see Ethan and Dr. Oliver heading toward them. They just dismounted their riders and started to attack the Tyrannodrones and Zeltrax.
Meanwhile Conner was busy with his fight against the White Ranger. The short but intense battle had left both rangers on there knees. "I see you gotten better." The White Ranger panted as he looked up into a tree to see a figure moving in on Kira's location. "It's too bad you rangers are so dumb." Conner looked at the White Ranger strangely who suddenly disappeared, before looking backwards to see a Ninja getting ready to attack Kira and Hunter.
"Shit...KIRA, HUNTER WATCH OUT." Conner ran over and pushed Hunter and Kira out of the way taking the sword instead. To everyone's surprise the Sword cut right through the high-powered suit, causing Conner to fall on the ground demorphing bleeding. Hunter glared at the Ninja before charging him. Hunter tried to get the Ninja off his feet with a sweep, but the Ninja jumped over Hunter's leg and kicked hunter in the head as he came back down to earth. Hunter held his head as he got up, wishing he had his helmet. The Ninja charged at Hunter, blood lust in his eyes. Kira, a little distraught over what Conner did, ran over and Spin kicked the Ninja to the side, making a point to grab the hood of the Ninja, de-masking him. Kira went wide-eyed at what she saw; Eric McKnight was standing there grinning like a mad man. Conner finally got up holding his wound.
"ERIC HOW COULD YOU..." Conner yelled, ignoring the pain his own brother had caused.
"It's quite Simple actually, Power, I desired power and My master Lothor gave it to me." Eric smirked.
"That impossible, He's stuck in the abyss of Evil." Hunter snarled raising a few eyebrows.
"Ah but the powers of good can freely pass through the abyss...And Master Lothor held six such powers...And now I hold three of them...The Thunder powers and Yellow Wind power." Eric Smirked. Hunter growled, now some Punk had his powers....this couldn't be true...
"But you can't use the powers with out a morpher..." Kira cried out, causing Hunter to raise an eyebrow, how would she know of morphers?
"True....Which is why I went to Angel Grove and dug out this..." He lifted his hand to show the Green Power Coin and Golden Morpher. "And with is I will defeat you pitiful hero's and gain your power and the other Ninja Powers as well..." Dr. Oliver just froze in fear...now some one else had his first powers, and was going to make the same mistake as he did.
"Eric, Don't do this, your making a huge mistake..." Dr. Oliver cried out
"I doubt it, besides with this much power how can I be wrong? Now remember this little line...IT'S MORPHIN TIME DRAGONZORD" Eric McKnight held up the morpher and allowed the Green Energy to encompass him, transforming him into the Green Mighty Morphin Power Ranger. "And now, Miss Ford, it's time to die..." Eric raised the Dragon Dagger and charged at Kira slashing. But Somehow, Conner was able to use his Dino Speed and once again block the blow for Kira, causing Eric to cut another deep gash in Conner. Conner suddenly felt himself getting weak and passed out. Kira just muttered a few curse words, as the Green Ranger moved toward her.
"Why me Eric...." Kira said with tears rolling down her eyes.
"Cause you are the one who can stop Master Lothor's plans..." Eric picked up the Sword he used to Stab Conner and moved toward Kira, causing her to scream. But instead of her usual Ptera scream, what seemed to be Music came out. Kira suddenly glowing with Crimson Energy. Suddenly The Energy flew out of Kira and into Hunter's long dormant morpher, instantly morphing Hunter once more into the Crimson Thunder ranger. Kira looked up wide-eyed, Hunter was a Power Ranger? Sighing she quickly ran over to Conner unconscious form, crying somewhat. Hunter quickly pulled out his Thunder Staff and started to fight the green ranger. Hunter quickly slashed the Green Ranger with the Staff, only to get slashed by the Green Ranger's Dragon Dagger. They quickly ran at each other and butted heads, The green ranger soon grew tired of the bout and fired an energy bolt at Hunter knocking him back, as Dr. O and Ethan finished fighting the Tyrannodrones that suddenly appeared. The Green Ranger smirked under his helmet and disappeared. Hunter, Ethan and Dr. Oliver quickly de-morphed and ran over to Kira and Conner.
"Hey Cous, is he going to be all right?" Kira just nodded and turned around to Hunter, glaring at him.
"Why didn't you tell me that, you were a power ranger?" Kira suddenly stopped, remembering that secret identities of Rangers was suppose to be just that, secret.
"Let me ask you this, then who do you know about morphers..."
"Well...I'm a power ranger Hunter, the Yellow Dino Thunder Ranger." Hunter just went wide-eyed and shook his head. Figures.
"Come on we'll talk later, let's just Conner home...to Sakura.... And Make sure Eric doesn't come home, By the way Kira, I'm staying for a while now..." Kira just nodded as they headed toward Conner's Car, unknowingly being watched by female ninja.
"Go Ahead, Blame Eric McKnight...Uncle's plan is going perfectly" The ninja laughed as the Rangers drove off, they had no clue what was coming.
To be continued.

Passion of Red and Yellow Chapter 4 "Tears of Thunder"

"3 DAYS!!! YOUR TELLING ME I'VE BEEN ASLEEP FOR THREE DAYS.....Eh hold on.." Kira quickly made her way into the bathroom. Conner just sighed at his friend as he leaned against the wall.
"Yes Kira, three days...." Conner once again had to stifle a laugh.
"CONNER NOT NOW...." Kira yelled, infuriated at her teammate, how could he do this at a time like this.
"Hey I can talk to you now, without you storming off, I like this..." Conner laughed, he could only imagine the look on Kira's face.
"Go to hell Conner.." Kira was mad, but some how her little argument with Conner made her remember the fights her mother and father had together....I wonder if me and Conner will be as happy as they were...........Wait a sec what am I thinking...I love Trent not Conner. Kira just sighed as she got up, pulling her pants up and flushing the toilet. She walked out of the room to see Conner standing there, chuckling to himself.

"Eric, could you get the door..." Conner asked, not wanting to leave his Eggs and Bacon alone long enough to burn. Eric just replied with a nod that Conner couldn't even see and walked over and opened the door...dropping his glass of Orange Juice as he saw who it was...
"Okay can anyone tell me why the hell the head teacher of the Thunder Ninja Academy is here...?" Eric yelled. Hunter just laughed as he entered the door, soon greeted by a hug from the Yellow Ranger. Soon after the embrace, Kira turned to Eric and gave him her patented death glare...
"Eric...How do you know about the Thunder Ninja Academy...?" Eric nearly jumped out of his skin, scared out of his mind what Kira could be conjuring up...Conner laughed a bit and looked over to his daughter to see that she was copying the gesture. Conner just sighed as Hunter put his hand on Kira's shoulder...
"Kira calm down, it's okay...He's a Wind Ninja student...The relationship between the two academies have gotten better." Hunter said, trying to calm down his cousin...
"Hold on, I thought you said in that letter that their Sensei killed your parents..."
"Umm I found out it was the Brother of the Wind Sensei...not The Wind Sensei himself." Hunter told Kira half of the Truth, there was no way he could tell her about Lothor and him being a Power Ranger.
"Ahhh I see, Guys this is Cousin Hunter Bradley..." Kira said, finally introducing Hunter to the two people who didn't know him.
"Hi there I'm...."
"Conner McKnight, Caller ID and the process of elmination works wonders...so you know what happened..." Hunter asked, trying to get a grip on things
"Just that Kira called up three nights ago and said her parents were dead..." Conner sighed, wishing he knew more.
"You guys I'm sure you all love to stay and chat, but don't you and Kira have school.... Umm that is you want to go Miss Ford..." Eric sighed, again not wanting to face the wrath of Kira Ford.
"Oh I'm going, I have to let Hunter inspect the scene first...It's a Thunder Ninja thing..." Kira sighed.
Sakura quickly ran up to Kira and tugged on her shirt. As soon as she knew she had Kira's attention, she asked the question burning in her mind. "Does that mean you're a Thunder Nenja too, Mommy?" Hunter's eyes widen at the statement. He immedatily ran toward Conner, kicking him in the gut sending him reeling back in pain. Kira, frustrated, smacked Hunter on the back of the head.
"First of all, yes I am a Thunder Ninja Student...Though only in the summer...(A/N And thus explains why she wouldn't of got caught), and Hunter, Conner's been trying to get her to stop, but I'm not losing any sleep over it, now can we please go to school." Conner nodded as Hunter ninja streaked away, letting Conner and Kira head toward Conner's car.
At Reefside High...
Kira Ford got through the day with out much hassle, or emotional stress. And now it was Dr. Oliver's Science class, nothing should send me over the top here. Hunter had joined her about third period with some disturbing news...Apparently, by the way the Fords were killed, he was pretty sure a wind ninja or ninja student had killed the Fords. Kira took her seat besides Ethan James, with Hunter leaning on the wall, muttering something. What, Kira couldn't tell, but it wasn't good that was for sure. Conner walked into the class somewhat late only to get glares from his teammates and Hunter. Not wanting to know why, he just sat down as Trent Fernandez came running right in and right to his Girlfriend.
"Kira Honey-Bunny, where have you been, you didn't call or anything." Kira sighed, she really didn't want to explain to Trent what happened.
"She was with me, it was a family thing..." Hunter stepped forward, getting a good look at this Trent Guy he heard his cousin. He didn't know why but Hunter just couldn't seem to get himself to trust this Trent. Suddenly Dr. Oliver walked into the Room.
"All right sorry I'm late, I just received a call from my Finacee ...and got some major news..."
Cassidy Cornell, the prime (and only) reporter for Reefside high charged in on this piece of info like any good reporter would. "So Dr. Oliver, what is this major news, the demanding student body wants to know..."
"I don't think it's proper for a teacher to reveal that information...so let's just take our seats and start with today's lesson...which is going to be on Parental Instincts..." Kira just froze, this was not happening to her.
"All right, can any one tell me what the most basic instinct of mother would be." Dr. Oliver looked around his class to see that only Cassidy Cornell had her hand raised.
"Yes Cassidy..."
'It's to make sure the kids stay up to date in the latest of a fashion..."
"Congratulations, you just earned another week on detention..." Cassidy just sighed as Conner raised his hand. Dr. Oliver just smiled, just the person he was hoping for.
"Yes Conner..."
"It would be the survival of the young, making sure they live long enough to ensure the passing on of their genes." Conner answered. Kira all of a sudden broke down, wondering if that's what her parents were doing before they got murdered. She got up and ran out of the room crying, her cousin following close behind her. Dr. Oliver just sighed at the scene.
"All right everyone class is dismissed, and congratulations no homework." Dr. Oliver dismissed the class, watching as Most of the Students left. He noticed Conner trying to leave only to be stopped by what seemed like a pissed off Ethan. "Conner, Ethan is there a problem here?"
"Go ahead Conner, tell him what you and your brother did 4 nights ago..." Ethan barked, louder than usual.
"What...we told you the Truth about Sakura and went home...." Conner sighed what was this all about?
"Oh I just found out that Kira's parents were killed by a Wind Ninja and that your brother is one..." Ethan snarled while Dr. Oliver just sighed, at least he knew why Kira ran out of Class.
"Ethan, Come on, I doubt Eric did anything, and even if he did why are you snarling at me, heck I would join you in killing him..." Conner sighed "...And there's a whole Academy of them in Blue Bay."
"Conner's right Ethan, we can't going around playing the Blame game, we have to be rational about this...I assume that Hunter is a Ninja of some kind." Dr. Oliver looked to the Red Ranger who just sighed and nodded.
"Yeah, he's a Thunder Ninja along with Kira." Conner sighed getting up and walking toward the door, Ethan and Dr. Oliver following.
Conner sighed as he walked toward his car, a question suddenly popped into his head. "Oh wait, Dr. O, what did you mean by big news?
"Well Conner you should know the best out the Tree of us..." Dr. Oliver just smirked as he walked out of the building, with a chuckling Ethan James following. Conner just stood there dumb founded, not sure what he meant. Suddenly it came to mind, Conner just smirking as he exited the school climbing in his car. He had no sooner entered his car when his morpher went off. He quickly looked around to make sure no one was around before answering his morpher.
"Conner here, What's up?" Conner more of stated then asked a question.
"It's Kira and her Cousin, they're being attacked by some Tyrannodrones at the park, and it appears She doesn't want him to know about her being a ranger.... As she is not really doing anything." Hayley sighed as she communicated with Conner "I'll try to get Tommy and Ethan there, just hurry". Conner just sighed and drove over to the park to see Kira and Hunter trying to hold back the Tyrannodrones. Conner quickly reopened his communication with Hayley.
"Hey Hayley, just because Kira isn't making the fact she's a ranger obvious, does that mean I have to, the guy is a Thunder Ninja..." Hayley just sighed and pressed a button, causing the morpher to make a loud Buzzing noise. "I take that as a yes, man has Hayley been cranky over the last few days I wonder what here problem is." Conner quickly ran out of the vehicle and dropkicked on of the Tyrannodrones that was about to attack Hunter.
"Hey you two okay..." Conner asked getting a strange look from Hunter and a Glare from Kira.
"Why do you care, McKnight...It's not like you're a power ranger or anything..." Hunter snarled, though slowly realizing even if Eric had killed his aunt and Uncle, Conner had nothing to do with it. Suddenly to Conner's displeasure, The White Ranger had shown up.
"Hello Conner, it seems like a good day to kill or rather in your case, a good day to die." The white Ranger taunted making Conner clench his fist. The White Ranger just threw his head back in laughter as Zeltrax and a few dozen Tyrannodrones appeared. Kira just sighed, there was no way she was going to reveal her secret identity to her cousin, head teacher of a secret ninja academy or not. Conner on the other hand had already revealed his morpher.
"Conner what is that?" Hunter asked, it looked like a morpher, but Conner couldn't be a ranger...could he.
"What do you think? DINO THUNDER POWER UP HA!" Conner activated his morpher transforming him into the Red Dino Thunder Ranger once more. Hunter had to admit he was amazed, how could some one as idiotic as Dustin become a red ranger. Kira just sighed as Conner turned around.
"You two can not tell a soul what you just saw okay?" Conner demanded as he pulled out his Thunder max saber and charged the White Ranger. Kira just sighed, when she suddenly heard a couple of Raptor Riders coming her way. She looked up and was relived to see Ethan and Dr. Oliver heading toward them. They just dismounted their riders and started to attack the Tyrannodrones and Zeltrax.
Meanwhile Conner was busy with his fight against the White Ranger. The short but intense battle had left both rangers on there knees. "I see you gotten better." The White Ranger panted as he looked up into a tree to see a figure moving in on Kira's location. "It's too bad you rangers are so dumb." Conner looked at the White Ranger strangely who suddenly disappeared, before looking backwards to see a Ninja getting ready to attack Kira and Hunter.
"Shit...KIRA, HUNTER WATCH OUT." Conner ran over and pushed Hunter and Kira out of the way taking the sword instead. To everyone's surprise the Sword cut right through the high-powered suit, causing Conner to fall on the ground demorphing bleeding. Hunter glared at the Ninja before charging him. Hunter tried to get the Ninja off his feet with a sweep, but the Ninja jumped over Hunter's leg and kicked hunter in the head as he came back down to earth. Hunter held his head as he got up, wishing he had his helmet. The Ninja charged at Hunter, blood lust in his eyes. Kira, a little distraught over what Conner did, ran over and Spin kicked the Ninja to the side, making a point to grab the hood of the Ninja, de-masking him. Kira went wide-eyed at what she saw; Eric McKnight was standing there grinning like a mad man. Conner finally got up holding his wound.
"ERIC HOW COULD YOU..." Conner yelled, ignoring the pain his own brother had caused.
"It's quite Simple actually, Power, I desired power and My master Lothor gave it to me." Eric smirked.
"That impossible, He's stuck in the abyss of Evil." Hunter snarled raising a few eyebrows.
"Ah but the powers of good can freely pass through the abyss...And Master Lothor held six such powers...And now I hold three of them...The Thunder powers and Yellow Wind power." Eric Smirked. Hunter growled, now some Punk had his powers....this couldn't be true...
"But you can't use the powers with out a morpher..." Kira cried out, causing Hunter to raise an eyebrow, how would she know of morphers?
"True....Which is why I went to Angel Grove and dug out this..." He lifted his hand to show the Green Power Coin and Golden Morpher. "And with is I will defeat you pitiful hero's and gain your power and the other Ninja Powers as well..." Dr. Oliver just froze in fear...now some one else had his first powers, and was going to make the same mistake as he did.
"Eric, Don't do this, your making a huge mistake..." Dr. Oliver cried out
"I doubt it, besides with this much power how can I be wrong? Now remember this little line...IT'S MORPHIN TIME DRAGONZORD" Eric McKnight held up the morpher and allowed the Green Energy to encompass him, transforming him into the Green Mighty Morphin Power Ranger. "And now, Miss Ford, it's time to die..." Eric raised the Dragon Dagger and charged at Kira slashing. But Somehow, Conner was able to use his Dino Speed and once again block the blow for Kira, causing Eric to cut another deep gash in Conner. Conner suddenly felt himself getting weak and passed out. Kira just muttered a few curse words, as the Green Ranger moved toward her.
"Why me Eric...." Kira said with tears rolling down her eyes.
"Cause you are the one who can stop Master Lothor's plans..." Eric picked up the Sword he used to Stab Conner and moved toward Kira, causing her to scream. But instead of her usual Ptera scream, what seemed to be Music came out. Kira suddenly glowing with Crimson Energy. Suddenly The Energy flew out of Kira and into Hunter's long dormant morpher, instantly morphing Hunter once more into the Crimson Thunder ranger. Kira looked up wide-eyed, Hunter was a Power Ranger? Sighing she quickly ran over to Conner unconscious form, crying somewhat. Hunter quickly pulled out his Thunder Staff and started to fight the green ranger. Hunter quickly slashed the Green Ranger with the Staff, only to get slashed by the Green Ranger's Dragon Dagger. They quickly ran at each other and butted heads, The green ranger soon grew tired of the bout and fired an energy bolt at Hunter knocking him back, as Dr. O and Ethan finished fighting the Tyrannodrones that suddenly appeared. The Green Ranger smirked under his helmet and disappeared. Hunter, Ethan and Dr. Oliver quickly de-morphed and ran over to Kira and Conner.
"Hey Cous, is he going to be all right?" Kira just nodded and turned around to Hunter, glaring at him.
"Why didn't you tell me that, you were a power ranger?" Kira suddenly stopped, remembering that secret identities of Rangers was suppose to be just that, secret.
"Let me ask you this, then who do you know about morphers..."
"Well...I'm a power ranger Hunter, the Yellow Dino Thunder Ranger." Hunter just went wide-eyed and shook his head. Figures.
"Come on we'll talk later, let's just Conner home...to Sakura.... And Make sure Eric doesn't come home, By the way Kira, I'm staying for a while now..." Kira just nodded as they headed toward Conner's Car, unknowingly being watched by female ninja.
"Go Ahead, Blame Eric McKnight...Uncle's plan is going perfectly" The ninja laughed as the Rangers drove off, they had no clue what was coming.
To be continued.
