Power Rangers in Space

Andros/Zhane (main)

FRT/PG-13

My version of KO-35 and it's fall. I may have been mistaken about a few of the details, but that is what artistic license is for. Andros/Zhane slash, Kai/Raja het, other couples to be announced.

Author Note: I wanted to take time to personally answer some questions that Sreym had.

He's right about Darkona, I forgot about him when I wrote chapter one so, I omitted him. I will reinclude him in my, slightly altered, version of events of the series.

I did intentionally change Andros and Zhane's ages. The age scale in my altered world is as follows:

Andros: 17
Zhane:18
Raab: 32
Eri & Kai: 20
Nala: 14
Raja: 16
Karone: 16

As for Andros's rank, Zordon chose to advance both Andros and Zhane's rank higher then the older Eri and Kai because they are the chosen leaders. This way they report directly to Raab and himself, not according to seniority.

Please e-mail me if you are still confused. I should have mentioned that the timeline is off. The next chaptershould bethe attack.

Chapter Four

4 Mars Sign

"Commander, requesting permission to enter."

"Ah, Andros, please come in. I got your message, how can I help you."

"Eri thinks that we may have a problem." Andros stood at attention beside his commander's desk. He saw Raab's shocked expression as he deliberately set the file in his hand down on the desk. Then he turned his chair so that he and Andros were face to face.

"You've got my full attention. What happens to be our problem. Oh, sit please."

"I would prefer to discuss this with both you and Zordonat the same time. If Eri could join us as well it might aid us in our understanding of these problems."

"Does anyone else in the colony know about this? Other then Zhane of coarse."

"No Sir. How did you know that he knew, all due respect ment sir, but sir, you have no psychic abilities."

"I don't need them." The commander stood up and walked over to stand beside Andros. The younger man turned to face the man who had helped raise him. After Andros's parents, both scientists, were killed in an accident, Commander Raab took in Andros and his sister. He had been the one who had introduced Andros to Zhane, so he knew firsthand how close their relationship was. He saw the love in their eyes and smiled at the thought of their happiness.

"I know both of you well enough to know that you must have had shared your concerns with him already."

"He was already there when Eri told me."

"I'll contact Zordon. Tomorrow, by High Noon, the conference should be set up."

"Thank you sir."

"You are most welcome, now go, enjoy the Equinox festivities. As I recall you were to young to remember the last one." At his commander's order Andros turned and exited the office.Raab expertly hid a smile as he moved back to the original position that Andros had found him in. Shaking his head to clear it of any miscellaneousthoughts Raab sighed and picked up the communicator, that was sitting on the sitting on the side of his desk, and typed in the code that would connect him to Alpha, Zordon's robot companion.

Taking a deep breath he hoped that Andros and Zhane were mistaken about the severity of the situation; unfortunately, he didn't think that that was possible. He trusted Andros's teammate's analysis of the situation. When Alpha responded Raab exhaled and started talking.

Conference Room, 5 Mars Sign.

"So, now what?"

"We must inform the Allianceof these findings. With this knowledge I am sure that Dark Spector is planning an attack."

"Sir, if I may?"

"Of coarse Andros, go ahead."

"We should not show any signs that we have any knowledge of their plans. This way we are both prepared for the upcoming battle. Perhaps the monsters will be intimidated by our levels of defense."

"I agree with Andros" Zhane added. "But I think that we should take this one step further. Go to alert security status. If the general public is notified what will stop Galactica from using her psychic abilities to find out our plans?"

"Agreed. Make it so." With that Zordon returned to earth.

"Thank you boys; you are all dismissed." At their commander's order the three rangers stood up and left the office. Eri turned and headed for laboratory while Andros and Zhane turned toward the private residences. The pair entered one of the homes and collapsed onto one of the sofas in the main room.

"Well, I guess you were right my friend." Silver said as he once again wrapped his red friend in his embrace.

"I never wanted a war Zhane." Andros replied, leaning into this friend's chest as the arms that held him tightened.

"Well, we've got one at our door. Your training programs will be needed now more then ever."

"I just hope that we will be ready for the battle when it comes."

"As do I Andros, as do I."

The two friends lay there together for hours, replenishing their energy and strengthening their bond. Both knew that if they were to survive the upcoming battle they would have to rely on the other's strength. What neither knew was that the forces of evil were already accumulating their army.
