Disclaimer: I do not own Power Rangers.
Brief: Five teenagers, Jack, Sky, Sydney, Bridge and Z are SPD rangers and three of them; Sky, Syd and Bridge are juniors at a certain senior high school. They have to juggle their time between academics, fights and love. A difficult combination but manageable and adventures ahead. Keep looking. This fiction sure going to have a conclusion unlike my previous fiction. I totally lost it halfway for my content. Anyway, enjoy. Traces of SkySyd, JackZ&Bridge.
Chapter 1
B-squad rangers are seated at their usual chilling area at the SPD quarters. Jack, Z and Bridge sat cross-legged surrounding the table playing poker while Sky and Syd sat opposite each other reading, or rather Sky's the only one concentrating. Syd looked around at her teammates.
"Great, exams exams exams, why do we need exams?" bellowed Sydney as she threw her textbook on the table and stretched herself.
"Computers, technologies, hey Syd, aren't those your field. You are supposed to be the IT expert, remember. Whatever happened to sexy genius head? Aliens maybe. Come to think of it again Syd, it's so not like you to scream over this" offered Z as she roller her eyes and yelled, "snap" I won.
Game over, next round. Bridge too joined in "exams are fine ways to show where you stand and who your major competitors are. It's like martial arts, kung fu you know. And then you…"
"Stop it, stop, stop Bridge, you are not making me feel any better. Instead, I'm feeling right the opposite. By the way, aren't you seating for a paper tomorrow? And you are seating over there playing poker. And Z, count yourself lucky as of Jack for not having to attend lessons and taking exams."
Sky finally tore his eyes away from his book, as he could no longer stand his co-partner nagging any longer. "Syd, if you want to have a feat, do you mind going to your room. I'm concentrating here. And for your info, you are not the only one having exam tomorrow all right? Bridge, you and I, we all are too. So?" Sky turned his head toward his book, shaking his head. No point talking to her, she doesn't understand anyway. The little pink princess.
Syd stared at Sky, mouth agape for a second. It's not fair. They are childhood friends and he is always acting like a jerk instead of saying something nice to her. Not even once. It's no wonder he hasn't had any girlfriend till today. Syd gave him a dirty look. With that, she stood up and walked towards Sky.
"Blue boy, I know you are the astute fellow here, do not I mean it, do not push my buttons, " Sydney poked her index finger on Sky's chest. At that moment, Commander Cruger stepped in. "Cadets, I trust you all to be always on your guard now as Grumm's becoming stronger by the second. You are the finest cadets I have ever had right now. I don't want to see inner clashes, not now, definitely not the future."
"B-squad rangers to the command center now, I repeat, B-squad rangers to the command center now," Kat's voice sounded over the radio.
Jack and the rest of his team rushed to the command center and aligned themselves waiting for Cruger's instruction. The little orb of light was floating around as usual.
"Rangers, two blue and orange head respectively are spotted at Orange city. Sky, Syd, I wan the both of you to go investigate now. Jack, Z, you are on surveillance duty now. But I want you to back up Sky if they were to need it. Bridge and Sam, you two go check out the Rivera area for suspicious characters. Now go."
Sky and Syd in cadet uniform took their vehicles and sped towards Orange city. There were certain times they wore civilian when on duty, especially after lessons. You cannot let your fellow classmates know your real identities.
"I can't believe I'm here. I have like less than twenty-two hours of preparation left for my paper. I wonder what's Grumm up to now. Will not forgive him if I flunk this paper. Sky, aren't you the least worried?"
Sky 's always at a loss when it comes to Syd. She's always that naggy? So he arched his brows, "Our paper, I believe. No, am not. Syd, I think we should…" he heard something nearby, "Shhh, I heard someone. C'mon, follow me," and they hid behind a wall.
Ps. In case you might be wondering why three of the cadets are pursuing studies, to answer that query, I feel that it would be more interesting to have a mix of both. And based on the actual story, since Jack and Z joined the squad late, I decided to put them for other courses instead. Anyway, I hope you'll love the new feel because certain parts I've changed. Spare me those nasty comments though, but tell me where I can improve on. Thanks and appreciated.
