Dreams 2: Blue Wolf Rising

Chapter 4: Complicated Love

Kira sang, as she strummed her guitar, expressing her feelings through her music, as she usually did.

"Hey, do you want to talk?" Kim asked, as she approached Kira.

"Sure, but I don't know how much you can help," Kira replied.

"Me either, but I can listen," Kim replied.

"I'm just so confused. I really like Trent, but he's not turning out to be such a great guy. And I think I'm falling for someone else, but at the same time, I still like Trent," Kira said.

"My advice is to let your heart decide between Connor and Trent," Kim replied.

"Thanks Kim. Wait, how'd you know it was Connor?" Kira asked.

"You two disagree all the time and steal glances at each other when you think no one is looking," Kim replied.

"He is so infuriating sometimes, but yet he can be so sweet too," Kira mentioned.

"And Trent?" Kim asked.

"I'm not sure about him. I thought he liked me, but then he tried to kill us," Kira replied.

"Try not to be too hard on him. It might not be entirely his fault," Kim replied.

"Yeah, we'd better go back," Kira said.

"Yeah, come on," Kim said, as the two girls left the part, headed for Cyberspace.

"Thanks Kim," Kira said.

"Anytime Kira," Kim replied.

The next day, the gang, minus Billy, Kat, and the kids, were at Cyberspace. Ethan was trying to help Hayley since Trent quit. Tommy was still stewing over the fact that Anton Mercer was alive and Tommy had a gut feeling that he was somehow connected to Mesagog.

"You incompetent losers! I told you that I despise failure!" Mesagog yelled, as he used his Psywave on Elsa and Zeltrax.

"We're sorry master," Elsa replied.

Nearly a week had passed without any attack from Mesagog. This of course was both relieving and unnerving for the rangers. Kim, Kat, and the other girls thought that a little ranger reunion was in order. So they decided to spend a whole Saturday with a beach picnic in Angel Grove. Billy and Kat were there first. They greeted their first arrivals, which happened to be the Desantos family, Bulk, Skull, and Jerome Stone. When Ernie retired, Jerome and Rocky joined in a partnership and bought the youth center. Jerome ran the juice bar and Rocky ran a successful dojo. Bulk and Skull were also a big part of the business. Aisha had finished college with her veteranarian degree and opened up her own clinic, which was so far very successful. Little Alyssa was attending preschool now. Rocky's mother was happy to watch her granddaughter while her parents were at work everyday.

"This beach picnic was a great idea!" Aisha said.

"Yeah, I'm kind of anxious to meet the rookie rangers," Rocky replied.

"They're rookies, but the Dino gems chose well," Tommy said, as he Kim and little Jason arrived.

"Hey Tom, so are you the white ranger or the black ranger now?" Rocky teased.

"Funny Rocko. Does anyone know if Jason and Trini are coming?" Tommy asked.

"Probably not, but I haven't heard. Their jobs as American ambassadors keep them traveling," Kim replied.

"I talked to Jason a couple weeks ago and he said that he and Trini were off to Japan," Billy mentioned.

"Hey guys!" Adam called, as he and his family arrived. Adam had spent the last eight years in college and was now a doctor in his residency. His specific area was pediatrics. Tanya had her own morning radio station at a popular Angel Grove station. She made good money and the rest of her time was spent at home with Danielle, who was now in kindergarten. Soon, Hunter, Tori, Cam, Dustin, Marah, and Shane arrived.

"Great, everyone is here. For those of you who don't know, this is the newest team in ranger history," Tommy announced.

"This is Connor, Kira, and Ethan. And this is Hayley, who helps with the technical aspects," Kim introduced. The rangers began to introduce themselves, but Hayley beat Cam to his punch.

"You're Cam Watanbe," she said.

"Uh...yeah, how'd you know?" Cam wondered.

"It was yours and Billy's examples that I followed. I wouldn't have been able to create the morphers without your research," Hayley praised.

"Thanks, it's nice to meet someone who appreciates our hard work," Cam replied, clearly taken in by Hayley's reverance. Everyone settled down and ate. Afterwards, Kat cradled her daughter and watched with amusement, as he husband and son played around in the water with the other boys. Kat had Larisa dressed in a cute baby swimsuit. She set the toddler between her legs and let her play with the sand. Billy came out of the water to invite his wife and daughter into the water. Billy picked his daughter up and he and his wife waded through the water. They got up to their waists and Larisa shivered as he toes touched the water. Kat giggled, as the curious baby reached down to touch the water. Billy carefully leaned her down so she could put her hand in. She babbled and splashed, giggling happily. Their perfect day was interrupted, as Jerome Stone came rushing over to the group.

"Guys, that Mesagog character is attacking Reefside. It's all over the news," Jerome informed.

"Great," Billy grumbled.

"Hayley and I can take the kids back to Tommy's place and then I'll join you guys out there," Cam suggested. Billy nodded, as he handed his daughter to Hayley. The rest of the kids joined the two adults, as they teleported back to Reefside. Billy smirked.

"Let's see how confident Mesagog is when he sees three teams of rangers arriving.

"It's Morphin Time!" Billy called.

"Ninja Storm, Ranger form, ha!" Shane called.

"Thunder Storm, Ranger form, ha!" Hunter called.

"Let's Rocket!" Tanya and Skull called.

"Dino Thunder, power up, ha!" Connor, Kira, Ethan, and Tommy called.

"Dragonzord!" Bulk called.

"Ninjetti, the Crane!" Kim called.

"Ninjetti, the Bear!" Aisha called.

"Ninjetti, the Ape!" Rocky called.

"Ninjetti, the Frog!" Adam called.

"Ninjetti, the Wolf!" Billy and Kat called.

Mesagog's forces were completely blown back by the force of the three teams. He had not been expecting to face all the Ninjetti, not to mention the Ninja rangers as well. He knew that he needed a much stronger plan if he was going to succeed against the power rangers. What he needed, however, still remained in question. Suddenly, Mesagog began to contort and convulse. The monster's skin melted and was replaced by human skin. Anton Mercer breathed heavily, as the transformation ended. Trent, who had been spying on Mesagog, watched in complete surprise. Slowly, Trent tried to slip away.

"I guess you have discovered my secret son," Anton said quietly, as he saw his son slip away.

Tori arrived back at the Thunder Academy with Hunter that evening. The two stumbled into Hunter's living quarters, locked in a heated kiss. Tori giggled, as they collapsed together on the couch.

"I'll make us some hot chocolate and then we can cuddle and watch TV," Tori said, as he got up.

"You mean pretend to watch TV," Hunter replied slyly. Tori giggled again and left for the kitchen, while Hunter hit the play button on the blinking answering machine.

"Hey Bro, it's your little brother. I'm assuming your out helping with that monster attack in Reefside that I heard about. Anyway, I'm actually calling to tell you I'm going to be in Reefside for a competition next weekend. I am looking forward to seeing everyone, especially Tori. So pass the word on and I guess I'll see you next weekend. Love ya bro," Blake's voice ended.

Tori had heard and gave him a worried look. Neither of them had even discussed telling Blake that they had started dating. In one way Tori felt bad, but she and Blake had never had anything official. They had never really done anything more than flirting, so it wasn't like she was cheating.

"Don't worry babe, I'll take him aside and talk to him first," Hunter said.

"Are you sure?" she asked, as she snuggled into his arms.

"Of course," he replied, as he kissed her forehead. She smiled and kissed his lips, as they cuddled closely and watched a movie.

Kira breathed in the night air, as she sat by the lake lazily strumming her guitar.

"That's a nice tune," Trent said, startling her. Kira jumped up, ready to fight.

"Whoa, I'm not here to fight. I don't want to fight you," Trent said. Kira watched him skeptically.

"Look, I know you don't trust me Kira. But it doesn't have to be like that. I can love you, if you'll join me," Trent said, as he took her hand.

"Join you? Trent, I don't like the way your acting. I want the old Trent back, I liked him," Kira replied.

"You can learn to like this one," Trent said.

"No," Kira said, as she jerked her hand away.

"Come on Kira, imagine what we could do together. We could overthrow Mesagog and the world would be ours," Trent said.

"Please, just go Trent," Kira said, again jerking her hand away from his.

"Hey dude, she said go away!" Connor called, as he arrived. He had been walking home when he heard Kira's guitar. Trent smiled evilly, as he twisted Kira's arm and brought her into a headlock.

"Let her go!" Connor yelled. Trent laughed and shoved her to Connor, before disappearing through an invisi-portal.

"Thanks Connor," Kira said.

"Don't mention it, let me walk you home," Connor replied, as they set out for her house. The arrived soon and stopped at her front door.

"I guess I'll see ya tomorrow. Thanks again," she replied, as she kissed his cheek and went inside. A goofy grin plastered itself on Connor's face, as he walked home himself.
