Disclaimer: I don't own the Power Rangers. So don't try to buy them from me. Please don't get all offended because I mocked your favorite Ranger. I try to mock them all. Besides, it's just for fun. I really do enjoy the show :). 'Hi" to all from AFPR…especially my fellow Psychos. Please let me know if I make any errors. I have no difficulty with receiving constructive criticism.
If you haven't done so, please read the first fifty stories in "When Rangers Meet." Thanks.
Well, this is story eighteen. It had been requested by green dragon ranger. This one came to me a lot easier than the previous story. Btw, I'm not sure where the idea of a "pocket dimension" came from. I'm sure it was from a fanfiction rather than the show. I just don't remember which one. Anyway, enjoy!
Cam and Tommy

"Finally," groaned Cam as he packed his bag. A few days in Reefside had been more than enough for him. It was bad enough hearing Tori and Kira complaining in stereo about the lack of female Rangers. It was worse that his laptop along with all the other computers had been taken over by Dustin and Ethan for their "ultra mega super computer game extravaganza." But the worst thing of all was Hayley turning him down flat despite all of his attempts to get her to go out with him. "Probably just jealous that I finally got to be a Ranger and made that cyber version of myself to take over while she's still stuck in Dr. Oliver's dusty old basement," he reasoned to himself as he bent down to look under the bed for his spare eyeglasses.
"Seeeeeekkkkkkyyyyyaaaaahhhhhh!" Tommy's flying kick just missed the Green Samurai Ranger's head. However, it did connect with another part of his anatomy.
"Dr. Oliver!" cried Cam indignantly as he rubbed his butt. "Next time you want to spar, just let me know. You could've taken my head off."
Tommy just glared at him. "Give…it…. back…. now!"
"Huh?" asked Cam.
"I don't know how you managed to get it," growled Tommy. "But, you are going to give it back to me, now!" With that, he dangled something in front of Cam. "Know what this is?"
Cam gulped as he read the writing on the video. Dustin and Shane had filmed him dancing and singing with his guinea pig father that one time they had gotten drunk on sake while celebrating Cam becoming a Ranger. He could've sworn he had burnt every copy. "Ok, ok, you can have it back." With that, he opened his bag and began tossing his stuff out. He then pulled out a bra and tossed to towards Tommy. "I just wanted a memento of my time with your lovely assistant."
Tommy gaped at Cam as he pulled the undergarment off his head. "Well, that pretty much explains why she shot you down, you sick pervert." He stepped forward and gripped Cam by the shirt collar. "I am not going to tell you again …GIVE…IT…BACK…OR …ELSE!" He dangled the video in front of Cam once more before storing it safely into his pocket dimension.
Cam stared confusedly at the Black DinoThunder Ranger. "Dr. Oliver, I have no idea…"
"Oh, cut that 'Dr. Oliver' crap," Tommy interrupted. "You're just about as old as me. Only difference is, I don't rely on my daddy."
"Fine then, Thomas," snapped Cam in irritation. "But what the hell are you babbling about?"
Tommy sighed. "Fine, pretend you know nothing about my old Green Ranger power coin. Pretend that you hadn't gotten hold of it somehow and distorted it into that disgusting mockery you morph into."
Cam gaped incredulously at Tommy. Two seconds later he had Tommy by the hair. "That Samurai Amulet was a gift from my mother," he stated fiercely. Then he released the now short, gelled spikes and grimaced as he wiped his hand on Tommy's black t-shirt.
Tommy snorted. "Yeah, sure, I heard the whole 'story' from your so-called 'Sensei.' You went to visit your parents' past by stepping through a scroll. Ridiculous." He had already conveniently forgotten about his own trip to the past with Kim and Rocky through a storybook.
"You DARE to insult my parents?" snarled Cam. "You will PAY for this dishonor!" With that, he quickly morphed into his Samurai Ranger outfit.
"Oh, so we're going to be difficult about this, aren't we?" Tommy then morphed into his Black DinoThunder outfit. For not the first time, he was glad he no longer had to follow Zordon's ridiculously stringent rules and regulations.
The two morphed Rangers circled each other. "I see you've got my helmet star," uttered Tommy as he tried to find an opening. "It's not enough you had to steal my Green Ranger coin, but did you have to steal my Red Zeo Ranger crystal as well?" He had already forgotten that he had taken the crystal out of his private safe to look at just that morning.
"I think you need to repeat geometry class. I don't have a stupid star on my helmet, just this weird cross" retorted Cam. "Besides, who would want to steal your silly old crystal anyway?"
Tommy ignored Cam's reply as he continued to study the Green Samurai. "You even messed up my dragon shield," he accused as he pointed to Cam's chest.
"What are you talking about?" asked Cam as he tried to sneak a kick at Tommy who quickly blocked it. "This isn't a shield, it's the my Green Samurai Ranger armor."
"Yeah…right," retorted Tommy as he grabbed Cam's arm and tossed him against the nightstand. "It just so happens that the only other Green sixth Ranger has a dragon shield just like I had as the Green sixth Ranger. Give it back, NOW!"
"Fine!" Cam smirked under his helmet as he tossed off his armor, causing himself to power up. He jumped up, flipped over Tommy's shoulders and began to jump on the bed.
"What kind of move is that?" questioned Tommy.
"Hey, I can't believe my dad never let me jump on the bed," commented the now-distracted Green Samurai Ranger as he did a backflip. "Whooohooo!"
Tommy gawked at the bouncing Ranger for a few seconds. Then he shrugged his shoulders. Reaching up, he snatched at Cam and somehow managed to grasp the Green Samurai Amulet.
Cam instantly demorphed and fell off the bed. "Ow!" he whimpered as he rubbed his head. "Hey! How'd you get into my personal pocket dimension?" He looked up at the now demorphed Tommy who was examining the amulet. "That's mine!" he cried as he jumped up.
"Aha!" exclaimed Tommy as he whacked it against the corner of the nightstand. "No Green Ranger power coin, huh?" On the third whack, the amulet smashed into teensy little pieces. Tommy frowned in dismay as he realized that there was no coin inside.
"MY AMULET!" screeched Cam. "MY POWERS!"
"Whoops, I guess you didn't take my old coin after all," said Tommy sheepishly. He smiled at the now-seething Cam. "Hey, it's not like you can't just go back into the past and get the amulet again."
"Are you kidding?" yelled Cam. "Don't you ever read stories about time traveling? I'd probably meet myself from the last time I went there and blow up the universe. Besides," he grumbled as he picked up the shattered pieces, "I don't have the scroll anymore." He decided it best not to mention that he had run out of cedar chips and newspaper on the day his father tried to sneak some chocolate and ended up with a bad case of diarrhea.
"Oh," said Tommy as he began to edge out of the room. "Well, I guess I should let you get back to packing. I'm sure you're eager to get back home." With that, he dashed out the door.
"Oh no you don't!" called Cam as he ran after the other man. "Come back here and find a way to fix my amulet or I'll tell my fa…I mean I'll tell Sensei! Dad! Dad! Dr. Oliver is being mean to me!"
