Chapter Eight- Investigating
The Rescue Rover came to a stop in front of an abandoned warehouse in eastern Mariner Bay. Ryan, the Titanium Ranger, stepped out of the yellow jeep on the driver's side. Miss Fairweather wanted a sane Ranger to come along in case Joel did something stupid. Joel stepped out of the jeep on the passenger side. Miss Fairweather and two other Lightspeed science officers got off the jeep from the back. Miss Fairweather held an electromagnetic sensor in her hands. With the handheld device, the chief science officer took scans of the surrounding area. The other two science officers were scanning the area with handheld scientific devices. They carried other scientific equipment on their back in a backpack.
To pass the time, Ryan started a conversation with Joel. Ryan whispered, "So, Joel, I heard you had a little crush on Miss F."
"I do," said Joel. He smiled and looked at the chief science officer who was performing her tests. "But every time I try to get close, I burn and crash. If she could, she would shoot me with a blaster and make it look like an accident."
Ryan laughed at the Green Ranger's commentary.
Miss Fairweather turned around and said, "What are you doing? Playing around or protecting us?" Sighing Ryan took his Rescue Blaster out his orange, black, and gray Lightspeed Rescue jacket. Joel did the same.
"Aquabase to Lightspeeds Green and Titanium," said the voice of Captain Mitchell over the comm. units of Joel's Rescue Morpher and Ryan's Titanium Morpher. "Aquabase to Lightspeeds Green and Titanium, do you read me?"
Joel placed his morpher close to his mouth and said, "We read you, sir."
"What is it, sir?" asked Ryan who had his morpher close to his mouth.
"Our sensors cannot detect anything inside of that factory," reported the commanding officer. Mitchell was referring to the factory Joel, Ryan, Miss Fairweather, and the other two scientists were standing in front of. "At our end, we cannot detect anything but intense energy readings, so be careful. I am ordering the both of you to keep an open channel on your morphers at all times, understood?"
Miss Fairweather and the two scientists completed their scans. The three people walked back towards the two Power Rangers.
"We are going to take further scans inside the factory," explained Miss Fairweather. Joel and Ryan nodded; they put their Rescue Blasters close to their chest. The two Rangers walked towards the factory. Ryan slowly opened the door. Joel cautiously walked into the area. He scanned the place with both his eyes and laser weapon. The place was dark and damp. The only light in the building was the light that shined through a window. All over the factory were boxes and rusty machinery. Ryan, Miss Fairweather, and the two scientists entered the room. Ryan pulled out his standard-issued flashlight from his jacket and turned it on. He aimed the flashlight in different areas of the factory for security reasons. He saw nothing wrong.
"Miss Fairweather," said Joel. "Everything is okay."
The chief science officer and her subordinates began to scan the area with their equipment. All of a sudden the door slammed shut.
"Oh snip!" exclaimed Joel as he quickly turned around to look at the door. He held his Rescue Blaster tightly in his hands. His finger was on the trigger. Ryan was looking around the place. He also held his laser weapon tightly.
"Don't hurt me!" screamed Miss Fairweather.
"What's going on?" asked the voice of Capt. Mitchell over Joel and Ryan's morphers. They ignored Mitchell's voice and ran towards the chief science officer and her team.
"Joel, Ryan, come in.com.in..buzz..." The closer Joel and Ryan came to Miss Fairweather and her team the more distorted Capt. Mitchell's voice became. It got to a point where you heard nothing more than a buzzing sound.
"Sweet..,"said Ryan as he saw four monsters in front of the team of scientists. The monsters wore a black cloak. On their necks was a golden necklace. In their hands were swords.
Joel and Ryan knew what to do.
"Lightspeed Rescue!" exclaimed Joel.
"Titanium Power!" exclaimed Ryan.
Joel became the Green Ranger, while Ryan became the Titanium Ranger. Quickly, Joel converted his Rescue Blaster from a laser weapon into a sword. When Ryan morphed, his Rescue Blaster became the more powerful Titanium Laser. He quickly changed his weapon from laser mode to Battle Axe. They were ready for battle.
At the Aquabase, the communications officer was frantically trying to reestablish a comm. link with the Green and Titanium Rangers. "Captain."
"What is it, O'Mara?" asked Mitchell.
"There is simply too much interference in their area to form a comm. link," reported O' Mara.
"Darn!" exclaimed Mitchell.
At that same moment, Dana Mitchell, the Pink Ranger, entered the control room. She was here to give her father, the captain, the afternoon report. Dana walked up to the captain. She saw the look of distress on father's face. "Captain, is there a problem?"
"Joel and Ryan accompanied a science team on an investigation," explained Mitchell. "The last thing heard on the comm. link was Miss Fairweather shouting something. Assemble the other Rangers and head to their location on your cycles on the double."
"Sir," said O'Mara. "On the police frequencies, there's a report of a monster attack in the downtown area."
"Dana," said Mitchell. "Scratch that order, and head to that monster attack." He sighed. "I hope Joel and Ryan can get themselves out of this one."
"Yes, sir," said Dana. Like the captain, Dana could only hope for the best for her friends.
