DISCLAIMER

Power Rangers belongs to Fox Kids, Haim Saban, and Disney. I only own Gragon and the Crangons.

Meanwhile, the Rangers, Jason Lee Scott, Zack Taylor, Trini Quan, Kimberly Hart, Billy Cranston, Tommy Oliver, Rocky DeSantos, Adam Park, Aiesha Campbell, Katherine Hillard, Conner McKnight, Trent Fernandez, Kira Ford, and Ethan James, were all sitting at a table in Reefside Friends. They were joined by Angela Chambers and Emily Williams.

"What if somebody comes in?" Angela wondered.

"Then we take care of them," Jason answered with a shrug.

"It's so peaceful today," Emily grinned.

"Yeah. I'm just glad I finished grading all those papers," Tommy stated.

"Me too," Kimberly smiled. The two leaned forward---and the door banged open!

"What in the world?" Angela questioned. Cassidy was struggling to pull a golden retriever inside the juice bar, with Devin at her heels.

"What is she doing?" Kimberly wondered.

"I don't know," Zack answered.

"Cass, are you sure about this?" Devin wondered.

"Come on, Devin. If the Power Rangers are in here, Fluffy will sniff them out," Cassidy said loudly.

"Oh, no," with a groaning laugh, Kimberly dropped her head into her hands. Fluffy barked.

"She's got something! She's got something!" Cassidy squealed. She and Devin quickened their pace as the dog ran towards the counter. Everyone, including Kimberly who had looked back up, watched as the dog leapt over the counter, taking Cassidy with her. With a gasp of surprise that was covered by Cassidy's shriek, Emily, Angela, and the Power Rangers stood up and rushed towards her. Everyone skidded to a stop when they saw the girl's legs flailing wildly as she vainly tried to remove herself from the trash can without hurting the dog. The group began to laugh.

"Oh, no," Aiesha laughed.

"Get me out of here!" came a muffled cry.

"Guys, we can't just leave her like that," Kimberly snickered. With that, they all composed themselves and Kimberly and Katherine pulled the girl out.

"Cassidy, are you okay?" Kimberly asked in concern.

"Look at me! I'm covered in garbage!" the girl wailed.

"I've gotta say, you're not looking your best," Devin said. Just then, Fluffy poked her head out of the can.

"Fluffy looks okay," Rocky commented.

"A big help you were," Cassidy growled at the dog. Fluffy whimpered. Everyone laughed.
