A/N: I know, there aren't enough episodes yet for me to be adding this
character, but I've got about a gazillion in mind that need this character
(I won't say much more except cough with the name. Ha.).
The New Guy
"Oh! Who's that?" Rose suddenly exclaimed as a new boy walked down the hall. The girls were next to Gen's locker.
"I don't know, but talk about eye candy!" Maggie commented. "Gen, he's staring at you!" Gen raised her eyebrows in skepticism.
"You must be mistaken. There isn't a male in the world who would look at me." She turned to look anyway. He was, in Maggie's words, eye candy. Tall and muscular, with coco colored skin and deep brown eyes. He was clad in black jeans and a green shirt. His eyes met hers, and she felt her pulse quicken. She quickly looked back in her immaculate locker, beginning an unsuccessful attempt to feign searching for her homework. It was in her binder, as always.
"Give it up, Gen. You think he's hot." Rose teased. Gen gave an unfeminine snort. Rose sighed, and the three began their walk to Chemistry. Theo and The Joel joined them as they walked.
"Hey, did you see the new guy?" Theo asked.
"The Joel thinks he's nice. He said hi to Joel."
"Joel, you are truly weird." Gen said with a laugh. As they walked into the classroom, speak of the devil; there was the same guy!
"Class, take your seats, please." Ms. Appleby said. "This is Drew Taylor. He's new to Angel Grove, and I want you all to give him your warmest welcome. Drew, why don't you tell us about yourself." He smiled. Gen felt her heart race again.
"Well, I'm from San Diego, and my dad just got transferred here. He actually grew up here in Angel Grove. I'm a sophomore, and that's pretty much it."
"Thank you, Drew. Why don't you go sit next to Gen?" He smiled again.
"With pleasure."
~~
Right before lunch, when the girls were coming out of Math, Gen pulled them both into the women's bathroom.
"What I tell you here, is to remain here. Got it?" She said, menacingly. The other two nodded. "I am feeling very strong attraction to Drew Taylor." She spoke slowly, choosing her words carefully. The word choice was relatively unneeded, as Rose and Maggie squealed.
"Gen Cranston, you're in love!" Rose whispered.
~~
After school at the youth center, the teens were talking.
"So, what do you guys think of Drew?" Maggie said to the boys.
"He's cool." Theo said. Then he went on about a few things. Joel looked down at his lap, deeply intent.
"Hey, Joel, what's wrong?" Rose asked.
"Drew gives me the creeps. I don't know what it is. It's like he knows something about us, and he's using it to his advantage." Gen shivered. Joel was definitely not himself.
"Joel, I know you always give someone the benefit of the doubt, and you would never talk about someone that way. I think you might have something." Gen said. Then their communicators bleeped. Slipping out behind the center, they opened the channels.
"What's up, Alpha?" Gen asked.
"Ay-yi-yi, Rangers, you must get to the Command Center immediately!"
"On our way." They teleported out.
~~
The Parents and older Brother of the Rangers were there already. Worry was evident on their faces.
"RANGERS. THE DAY I HAVE FEARED FOR THE FINAL FORCE HAS ARRIVED. BEHOLD THE VEIWING GLOBE." A Power Ranger wearing green was standing with Goldar in the park.
"What's going on? I thought we were the only ones with power coins." Gen asked.
"The Green Ranger coin was created by Rita Repulsa. She needs to put a spell over the person for it to work. Same as she did with me." Tommy replied. Maggie stared at him.
"Dad? You're serious?" He nodded.
"YOU MUST DEFEAT THE GREEN RANGER TO BREAK THE SPELL."
"Right. It's Morphin' Time!" Gen shouted.
"Blue!"
"Pink!"
"Red!"
"Yellow!"
"Black!"
"MAY THE POWER BE WITH YOU."
"And be careful. If the Green Ranger is as strong a fighter as Tommy was at the time, you could all be in great danger." Billy remarked. His eyes had crow's feet around them, marking his worry.
"We will. Don't worry." Gen said from behind her helmet.
"Every time you say that I worry more." Her brother said as the teens teleported out.
~~
Gen felt herself land on solid ground in front of the Green Ranger. He was built like a truck, and obviously not one to give up in a fight.
"So, which one of you wants to fight me first?" He drawled with an air of amusement. Gen smiled herself.
"I will." She shot back with fierce determination. Her months of intense training prepared her for this, and she was totally ready for the undeniable fact that he would fight dirty. She stepped forward.
"A girl? Really. Do you actually think you're strong enough to defeat me?" Gen answered his smart remark with a snap kick to the groin.
"Yes." She replied. The Green Ranger stood, looking unaffected, but by the waver in his voice, she could tell he was.
"Then let the games begin." The putty patrol appeared, and Goldar and the putties began fighting the other rangers. Gen stood at a ready position, prepared for whatever he had. The ranger threw a punch, and Gen lightly danced out of the way. He threw another, and she blocked it. Then he made a mistake: He left himself open. At the last second, he noticed, and Gen hit him. Hard. Suddenly, he disappeared. So did the other opponents.
"Gen, what's going on?" Theo shouted.
"I have a vague idea, but it means we have one heck of a problem." Then, they suddenly demorphed. "The Green Ranger is at the Command Center, and we now officially have a problem."
