Chapter 26: The Return of an Old Friend

Jason grinned as Kylie ran over to him. He picked her up and spun her around. "How's my little sweet pea?" He asked.

"Good," she replied.

"You being good for your mommy?" He asked.

"Yeah," Kylie replied.

"That's good."

He placed a kiss on her forehead before placing her on the ground. Mrs. Dumas watched as Kimberly shrieked as she ran over and threw her arms around Jason's neck. "Hey, little sis," he greeted.

"When did you get in?" She asked.

"I just arrived, I came to surprise the bride and groom-to-be," he replied.

He put Kimberly on the ground and looked over at Tommy. "Aisha and Kim keep me updated on everything," he informed. Both men chuckled as they shook hands and shared an embrace.

"Well, Kimberly, if you need me, I'll be at my hotel," she informed.

Mrs. Dumas was about to walk out when Kimberly called out to her. "Mom, thanks for coming back," she told her. Mrs. Dumas nodded before leaving. Jason looked at her confused.

"What was that about?" He asked.

"Mom was apologized," Kimberly replied.

Jason smiled as he watched as Hannah came downstairs. "There's my other sweet niece," he greeted. Hannah smiled and embraced Jason.

"Oh, Hannah, I'm so sorry, I forgot," Kimberly apologized.

"It's okay, mom. I'm glad I can see my uncle again," Hannah assured her.

Jason looked at Hannah and Kimberly confused. "Okay, what's going on?" He asked. Kimberly smiled as she placed her hands on Hannah's shoulders.

"Jason, Hannah has a date," Kimberly informed.

"No, my niece has a date?" Jason asked.

Tommy grinned at the reunion in front of him. Kimberly and Jason were always close ever since they were infants. He was watching as Jason started to be overprotective of Hannah. "Who's the guy?" He asked.

"Trent Fernandez, Uncle Jason, he's one of Tommy's students," Hannah replied.

"Oh, if he's one of Tommy's students then you're defiantly not going out with him," he teased.

Jason ducked when Tommy threw a slap at his head. "Come on, Hannah, we've got to an outfit ready," Kimberly stated. Then all three girls hurried upstairs.

"You're actually going to finally tie the knot aren't you?" He asked.

"Yep, Kimberly, Kylie, and Hannah mean so much to me," Tommy replied.

"Does Hannah know about your second job?"

"Yes, she knows."

"Of course Kylie knows."

"Yep."

Jason and Tommy sat down. "So, this Trent is part of the team too, isn't he?" He asked.

"He is, he's a great kid," Tommy replied.

Upstairs in the bedroom, Hannah was searching through Kimberly's closet with a smile on her face. "You just met Trent for a day and he already asked you out on a date," Kimberly teased.

"He's a wonderful guy, mom. I really like him," Hannah stated.

"I know he's a good kid. He's a very good kid. Just be careful around his father."

Hannah was pulling on a blouse when Kimberly said those words. She looked at her confused.

"What do you mean?" She asked.

"His father has been acting very strange lately, just be careful," Kimberly replied.

"Don't worry, mom," Hannah assured her.

Kimberly smiled and then she brushed her hair out. "You're so pretty, Hannah," Kylie commented.

"Thank you, Kylie," Hannah told her.

Kimberly tied a ribbon in her hair and placed her chin over her shoulder. "There you're ready," she told her. Hannah took a deep breath and there was a knock on the door.

Tommy got up and answered the door. "Hey, Dr. O," Trent greeted.

"Trent, come in," Tommy insisted.

Trent came in and his eyes widened when he saw the original Red Ranger standing there. "Trent Fernandez, this is my good friend, Jason Scott," Tommy greeted. Jason stood up and shook Trent's hand.

"It is an honor to meet you, Mr. Scott," Trent commented.

"You saw Tommy's video diary. And you're the boy that's taking my niece out on a date," Jason stated.

"Yes, sir," Trent answered.

"Take care of her, Trent," Tommy instructed.

"Sure thing, Dr. O," Trent assured him.

He looked up when Hannah came downstairs. "Hannah, you look beautiful," Trent murmured. Hannah smiled at Trent before standing in front of him.

She was wearing white shoes, a knee-length pale pink skirt, a white blouse, and her hair had a white ribbon tied in it.

"Make sure she's home by ten," Jason instructed. Tommy grinned at his best friend. Trent nodded before leaving.

Later that evening, Jason was taking Kylie out for some fun while Tommy and Kimberly were sitting in the lab keeping track of Mesogog. "Tommy, don't you feel like something's wrong?" She asked.

"Yeah, I do," he replied.

Just then, their bracelets beeped. "What's going on, Trent?" Tommy asked.

"Tyrannodrones are attacking," Trent replied.

"We're on our way," Tommy informed.

They nodded before standing up. "DINO THUNDER, POWER UP!" They shouted. They morphed and went to help Trent.

Hannah was hidden away while Trent fought the Tyrannodrones. "HANNAH!" Kimberly called. She ran over to her. "Are you all right?" She asked.

"I'm okay," Hannah replied.

Kimberly stood in front of Hannah and fought the Tyrannodrones off. Hannah stood up and helped them fight the Tyrannodrones off. "Where did you learn those moves?" Kimberly asked.

"Your fiancé," Hannah replied.

Kimberly grinned behind her helmet and helped her fight. Once the Tyrannodrones left, Trent ran over to Hannah. "Hannah, are you okay?" He asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine," she replied.

He hugged her tight with a sigh. Tommy smiled as he wrapped his arm around Kimberly's waist. "Come on, we have to get back," he insisted. They nodded before getting back.
