16 years later
Alexis and Rose sat at the table eating breakfast, and when they were done, they pushed back their waist length ebony hair, and cleaned their bowls in the sink. "Mom, I'm going to school on my bike. I'll meet dad over there" said Alex wearing a pink tank top under a white blouse, while wearing blue skinny jeans and pink knee high leather boots with buckles running up the sides. "Be careful, and wear your helmet" said Bloom from the kitchen and kissed her cheek. Alex walked out to her pink and black soft-tail slim Harley, and rode off with a pink and black helmet. Rose got on her Purple motorcycle, with a black dragon in it, and her helmet matched. "See you after school!" said Rose, and she rode off too. "It seems just like yesterday when they rode tricycles. Now they have motorcycles." Said Bloom and she sent up a prayer of protection for her girls.
At the school
Alex pulled up on her Harley, and parked it in an available space while leaving room for Rose to park hers. Rose pulled up, and parked next to Alex. "About time you got here. Dad's going to have a cow if were late" said Alex, and they both ran into their class with their backpacks clinging to their backs. They got into their dad's science class after the bell had rang, and they didn't see him anywhere. "Be careful, dad's a ninja when it comes to attendance." Said Alex looking around and sat at a lab station with her sister. Their dad walked in, sat down, and started taking attendance. "Conner McKnight; here; Kira ford; here; Ethan James; here; Alexis and Rose Oliver you are late" said Tommy and the twins sat there with their jaws on the table. The students laughed, the girls crossed their arms in frustration. "Alright attendance is down. Hello everyone, I am Dr. Oliver, and yes the two ladies I mentioned are my wonderful twin daughters. Say hi girls" said Tommy and the girls waved. "This is first period Science. So open up your books, and let's get started with chapter one." Said Tommy, and there were several students with questions. "Yes Mr. McKnight?" asked Tommy leaning against his desk. "Why do they call you dr.?" asked Conner and everyone, including the twins, looked at him. "It's a good question. I have my doctorate in paleontology, the study of Dinosaur skeletons, and the animals themselves. Any more questions?" asked Tommy. Several students asked about his degree, and how he got it. The class was over by the time the questions stopped. Students poured out of the class, and the twins tried to sneak out but Tommy caught them. "Alexis, Rose, come back in here" said Tommy sitting at his desk. "Dad, we have history and art. Can we talk about this at home?" asked Rose, and Tommy looked at them.
"Alright, but don't disappear on me when we get home" said Tommy, and his phone vibrated. The twins took that chance to go to class.
In P.E on the field
The twins stood in front of an archery range with a compound bow, and a quiver full of arrows. "Let's show these amateurs how it's done Oliver style." Said Rose and they both whistled for a good 10 seconds before they pulled back, and shot their arrows at the same time. They both went in their targets at the exact middle of the target. "Oh Yeah, That's how you do it Oliver style!" said the twins, and they high-fived each other. "Excellent ladies. Where did you learn such techniques?" asked coach barker. The twins smiled at each other, and looked at the coach.
"One of our uncles was a master archer, and every summer we would visit him in mountains, and go hunting old style. If you can hit a running deer with a bow and an arrow straight in the head, then you can hit a target standing still." Said Rose, and the teacher looked at the identical twins in their blue and grey P.E uniforms with their ebony hair in a side ponytail braid. They finished the day off with archery, and when they went to change, they saw two stones sitting on the grass next to each other. "That's not good." Said Rose and Alex picked up the pink one. "I thought dad got all the gems?" asked Rose and Alex looked at the purple one. "Pick it up; we'll talk to him about it after school." Said Alex and Rose picked up the purple one and stuck it in her pocket.
At the parking lot after school
Alex and Rose were about to ride off when their dad walked to his jeep with three other kids. "Detention duty dad?" asked Alex with a laugh. "Don't laugh Alexis. You and your sister are coming too." Said Tommy, and they slipped their helmets on over their hair, and rode along after the jeep down the highway to the museum.
At the museum
Tommy stopped in front of the building with a big dinosaur in front. Alex rode up behind them, and parked in the parking lot. They saw the closed sign, and looked at each other confused. "Isn't mom working today?" asked Rose with her purple motorcycle jacket on. "I thought she was. I was wondering why she wasn't gone at 4 this morning." Said Alex, and she saw the others walk off into the woods. "They're going to find something pre-historic. I was going to cancel detention for the week." Said Tommy, and the twins followed them.
Tommy walked up to the front doors of the building, and found a sign taped to the inside of the door. It read: Under New Management In case of emergency call Anton Mercer Industries
"Anton Mercer? That's impossible…" Tommy said to himself, and he had a bad feeling something was about to happen.
In the Forest
Alex and Rose walked behind everyone talking about the possibilities of them being dino gems, and how they're going be power rangers like their dad. "I don't know Alex, we should have told dad about the gems." Rose said usually being the more cautious one of the twins. "Rose, don't sweat about it. Everything will be just fine." Said Alex. As they walked, Ethan remembered something from computer club.
"Hey, you guys hear that story about the guy who was hiking up here and fell into a giant sinkhole?" he asked. The Twins wanted to laugh but they kept it to themselves as to not damage the geek's ego. "No, must have missed that one," Kira remarked. "Come on, it was on all the urban legend websites!" Ethan protested. "It was probably just an urban legend then; can we not talk about something that probably never happened?" Alex asked trying not to burst into laughter. Ethan looked hurt and stuck his nose up. "Fine, but don't come complaining to me when you fall in a giant sinkhole," Ethan responded. As if on cue, the ground fell out from under the five teens, and they plunged into a cavern. "Nice Ethan, ya jinxed us!" yelled Alex, and she tried to move but her leg was under her sister's big butt.
"Get your butt off my leg Rose!" said Alex, and when Rose moved, Alex couldn't move it. "Sorry sis" said Rose, and helped her stand up. The group looked around and saw they were in some kind of cavern. "Where are we?" asked Conner and Alex felt like punching him.
"I so want to smack you right now McKnight. Where do you think we are! Were in a giant hole, and the only one with climbing experience is the one with a sprained ankle." Said Alex and Rose looked around.
At the museum with Dr. O
Dr. Oliver walked back towards his Jeep, but was shocked to see that the T-Rex statue in front of the museum was gone. "Where did-?" he asked. He backed away, and then suddenly the statue appeared from behind the building and attacked him like it was a real dinosaur. Tommy immediately ran to his Jeep. "Nice job Tommy, ya locked it!" said Tommy and jumped in. With no time to spare, Tommy floored it in an attempt to escape the beast. "This is so not my day, first detention duty, and now this, why did I ever start teaching high school?" said Tommy looking back at the monster while trying to drive.
In the sinkhole
Conner walked to the side of the hole and felt for a hand hold. "I'll climb up and get some help" said Conner and made good progress until a rock broke, and he fell on his back. "Back so soon?" asked Ethan and Rose smacked him upside the head. "Not nice." Said Rose, and put her sister's arm around her shoulder. "Rose, I think I can walk now. It must have just fallen asleep" said Alex, and she tested the pressure, and her leg was just fine. "Let's follow this tunnel and see where it ends shall we?" asked Conner, and Alex rolled her eyes. "Men, I swear if we didn't need them to survive, I would kill them all" said Alex in frustration.
With Dr. O and the T-Rex
Tommy continued to avoid the T-Rex, but wasn't going to be able to keep it up forever. Suddenly, a bridge came into view, so Tommy headed for it by flooring it on the gas petal. The Jeep rocketed under the concrete structure, but the T-Rex wasn't so lucky. Its head slammed hard into the bridge, and then it collapsed to the ground in a heap along with pieces of the bridge around it. Dr. Oliver slammed on the brakes, and the Jeep stopped after a few inches. Climbing out of the car, he walked over to the monster's skull and inspected the hole.
The T-Rex had a massive hole in the right side of its head, revealing electrical wiring. The robot dinosaur was emitting random sparks from the hole, but that didn't discourage Tommy from getting a closer look. With the discovery that the "statue" was indeed a robot, it left him wondering what was going on.
"I don't like this, not one bit" said Tommy and got back in his jeep.
With the kids
The group walked through the tunnels for a while until they came across a dinosaur skeleton embedded in the wall. The twins looked at each other in worry that the delinquents will find their secret lair under their house. "Screams Jurassic Park to me" said Kira and the twins laughed. "The people in Jurassic park had to have screamed a lot in the movie. It was a wonder if they didn't kill their voices." Said Rose and Alex laughed with her for a few minutes until they realized they were the only one's laughing.
"What, they did" said Alex, and Conner reached for the bottom of the jaw. "This will get us out of detention forever" said Conner, and when he pulled it down, the twins looked at each other and mentally cursed. The wall opened and revealed a secret room. The five teens walked into it and found they were amazed and confused about where they were. The walls and floors were tan, and in many spots on the wall rested a three toed footprint.
"What is this place?" Alex asked already knowing the answer. She got no response. "I could do a crazy video in here," Kira remarked as she walked in. Seeing three gems on a steamy rock in the middle of the room, made them think that was strange and Conner went to take the Red one.
"Yo, don't touch that!" Ethan exclaimed. Conner pulled back his arm. "You really are taking this 'dumb jock' thing to a whole new level," Ethan added. "Look, I have sat through enough lame science classes to know that that thing looks prehistoric, and I don't have to miss practice…" Conner responded. Kira cut in. "I hate to agree with him, really, I do, but I already missed one rehearsal and my band will freak if I miss another one," she said. Alex, who remained silent, didn't really care about the whole detention thing. The gems were pretty interesting enough for anyone to like them. With no other interruptions, Conner took the red gem from the rock. Kira grabbed the yellow one, and Ethan grabbed the blue one.
"So what are they?" asked Kira and the twins caught her eye when they looked at each other with worry on their faces. "How come you guys keep looking at each other like that?" asked Kira, and they smiled. "It's a twin thing" they said together, and Kira spotted something glowing from their hands. "You guys already have yours?" asked Ethan catching on. "Yeah, we found ours at the school." Said Rose with her hands on her hips. "They were probably together because were twins, and were always together." Said Alex and Rose looped arms with her.
They walked away and the others just stared. "Where do you think you're going?" asked Conner being bossy. "Well I don't know about you guys, but whoever lives here, I'm sure you don't want to be here when they get home," Alex said with a twinge of "get out" in her voice. "Good point," Ethan remarked. Rose and the other teens quickly followed her back into the cave.
In the ocean somewhere
An island fortress rose out of the water, and had this ancient looking building on top with lots of plants growing all over it. (Sounds like Jurassic park all over again huh? Stupid photographers.)
There in the fortress a great evil has awoken "The gems have moved, I can feel them," a strange dinosaur-man said to his minions. The minions called Tyrannodrones, the strange man's inhuman goons, stand waiting for a command from their leader, Mesogog. "Go, bring them to me," Mesogog commanded. The drones headed off without a second thought (not that they can think anyways).
Back with the teens
They came out of this cave in the forest, and Ethan looked around. "Compass, anyone bring a compass?" asked Ethan checking his pants. Conner being the jerky jock couldn't resist but to comment. "And I was going to bring one" that remark earned a smack across the back of his head from Alex. "Next time I'll just kick you" said Alex and Conner rubbed the sore spot on his head.
They all froze (especially the twins) when they felt some weird wind pass over them. "What was that?" Ethan asked. "The wind," Kira answered. "That isn't the wind," Ethan said, "as much as we'd like it to be, it isn't."
Suddenly, the five teens were surrounded by Mesogog's drones, putting them in dire jeopardy. "Run!" The twins exclaimed, making a mad dash away from the monsters. The other three teens soon followed with the drones hot on their tails. "What are those things?" asked Kira, and Alex ignored her question on purpose. She knew the answer, but she just didn't want to explain things before her dad did. Little did they know, they had just been in their basement.
The teens jumped a small trench as they ran, but Kira fell in. Rose and Ethan ran back and helped her up, and then all three of them hastily ran after Conner and Alex. However, Kira fell as she ran, and the drones were almost upon her. She screamed an earsplitting scream, her mouth emitting yellow shockwaves. The drones were blasted back by the waves of sound.
"Help her up!" Ethan remarked. Alex and Conner helped Kira to her feet. "What was that?" asked Kira a little startled. "That sounded like a pterradactyle. That was so cool!" said Alex and the teens turned to look at her strangely. "What, my dad's a paleontologist, get over it!" said Alex.
Suddenly Kira's gem glowed again. Before another word could be said, the drones regrouped and attacked. The five teens were separated, and soon found themselves fighting off the drones by themselves. Kira was able to handle her group of monsters and guessed that her gem had helped her. Ethan was thrown to the ground, and one of the drones attacked him. He held up his arms to block, and surprisingly he was unharmed. He looked at his arms, which were now glowing blue along with his gem, and had hardened to look like scales. "Whoa, it's like some kind of armor!" he said. Using his newfound ability, he was able to defeat the drones. Afterwards he figured from the fighting, that the gem magically taught him karate.
Conner wasn't holding up too well with his gang of drones. However, his gem suddenly glowed, and time seemed to come to a near standstill. "Whoa, everything's so slow..." he said looking around him. Two drones attacked him, and they appeared in slow motion. Conner got rid of them, as well as the others with super speed.
With the drones defeated, he wondered how he suddenly seemed to be a better fighter even without his newfound super speed. Considering he didn't know a thing about karate before now.
Alex, holding onto her pink gem, was approached by a single drone. She also gained super speed and took the drones down with considerable ease. The rest of the battle was a synch, and Alex found himself being proud of being a black belt in karate. Rose had a few drones on her hands, and when she saw her gem glow, she separated into 3 other versions of herself, which were purple, and defeated the drones that way. When the drones were done, the other forms faded back into her body, and she also was proud to be a black belt. The gang re-grouped a little while after finishing off their drones, and stood in a circle. "Okay, who votes to never tell Dr. O about this?" asked Kira, and all the teens raised their hands besides the twins. "Sorry guys, he's our dad. And we don't keep secrets in our house anyways" said Alex, and Rose nodded.
They studied the strange gems again, holding them in front of each other. "Man, I'm starting to love detention!" Ethan remarked. Alex raised an eyebrow in concern. "Hey!" Tommy shouted, running up to them. The teens froze because they were unsure what to do. "You guys okay? I heard noises and screaming" said Tommy looking at his daughters and smiling. "Were fine dad, let's head home" said Alex, and Rose followed her sister back to their bikes. "How do they have bikes at sixteen?" asked Conner to the Doctor and he chuckled. "They have a very loving grandmother who likes to spoil her only grandchildren" said Tommy with a small laugh. The girls took off on their bikes after Tommy and the gang piled into his jeep.
"Dad, we all found Dino Gems. They have them too" said Alex with their mental connection. "This is isn't good. I'll talk to them later about it" Thought tommy as he drove.
"Dad, they're going to find out, or Mesogog is going to hurt someone looking for the gems" thought Rose missing a giant statue lying on the ground with sparking wires hanging out of it. "What have you been doing dad?" asked the twins together. "You don't wanna know." Thought tommy, and the twins drove home. Tommy looked in the rear view and saw the girls driving into their driveway. "So guys, enjoy your hike in the woods today?" asked Tommy while driving down the road. "It was like any other hike. There was some weird looking animals, but they dissapered before we got a good look at them" said Kira, and Conner nodded. "Hey Dr. O, can you drop me off at the school? I left my car there" said Conner holding his keys. "Sure Conner" said Tommy, and he went to all their houses and dropped them off.
Back at the Oliver House
Tommy walked in the house rubbing his neck, and sighing when he sat in his armchair. "I need a neck massage" said Tommy and felt like the house was way too quiet. "Okay, this isn't right" said Tommy and saw the secret underground lair had been opened. "Bloom, You home honey?" asked Tommy, and when he walked down the stairs she was looking at something on the computer. He came up behind her, and leaned against the back of the chair. "What 'ya doin?" asked Tommy putting his glasses on. "I'm working on the coding for the morphers you'll need. I hate to say this, but I'm glad you got them to be black belts; they're going to need it. So how was detention duty?" asked Bloom and she spun her chair around to see her husband looking beat up. "Who did you get in a fight with this time?" asked Bloom brushing off some dirt from his shirt. "Just a giant t-rex robot, No biggie" said Tommy, and wrapped his arms around her waist. "How come you didn't tell me Mercer took over the Museum?" asked Tommy, and Bloom laid her head full of red hair on his chest. "I didn't want you to worry about the absence of a second paycheck." Said Bloom and Tommy kissed the top of her head. "Don't worry about it. I'll take care of everything." Said Tommy and Bloom relaxed against his solid frame.
The next day
Tommy headed into his class room, and didn't see his daughters in their seats. "Cassidy, have you see my daughters? I could have sworn they left for class this morning" said Tommy scratching his head. "Their outside on the soccer field practicing their Karate" said Cassidy, and Tommy looked out the window where the students were gathered to watch his daughters go at it. "They really have been improving. I'm glad to see what I taught them is sinking in." said Tommy and a kid with shaggy brown hair looked at him. "Wait you taught them karate? What's your belt?" asked a kid named Devin. "I'm a third degree black belt in just about everything" said Tommy pushing his glasses up on the bridge of his nose.
"Cool, our science teacher knows Karate" said Devin, and the students all sat down. Alex walked in wearing black skinny jeans, black leather boots, and a pink tank top with a black jacket over that, and she carried a giant pink purse. Rose walked in wearing a dark purple tank top, black skinny jeans, dark purple boots with buckles running down the side, a black jacket over top her tank-top, and she carried a black leather purse. They both had their ebony hair in a high ponytail with a small streak of either pink or purple. "Your late ladies" said Tommy, and they rolled their backpacks up to their desk and sat down. "Let's get started shall we?" asked Tommy, and all the kids either had bored looks on their faces, or were asleep on their desks. "This is going to be a long year" said Tommy, and he handed out their assignments.
After school
Conner, Ethan and Kira were walking through the quad, and two people were following them. "Don't you think that's weird Devin?" asked Cassidy with a sweater, miniskirt, and heels on while her counterpart wore jeans, a t-shirt, and sneakers. "Yeah, kids hanging out together. Spooky Cassidy" said Devin with sarcasm dripping from his words. "No, Conner McKnight the soccer super star, Ethan James the computer nerd, and Avril wanna-be together in one place" said Cassidy and Kira walked away from the group. Then all of a sudden the same wind as before blew past her, and she froze. The same monsters from yesterday appeared around her, trapping her, and Cassidy urged Devin to get a shot of it. He showed her the footage, and she didn't see a thing.
With Conner and Ethan
"Kira!" they yelled and ran to the spot where they took her from. They found her backpack, and Ethan picked it up. "We need Dr. O" said Conner, and they darted for Conner's car.
On the Way
"So we ran into those dino freaks yesterday in the woods, and now they have Kira. What do they want from us?" asked Conner freaking out.
At Tommy's House
They drove up to Tommy's house, and saw a pair of motor cycles in the garage, a jeep in the driveway, and a small SUV sitting next to it. "Wow, their insurance must be insane" said Conner walking up to the house. Ethan knocked, and Conner looked in the window. "Knock again" said Conner and Ethan knocked again. Conner turned the knob of the door, and almost walked in but Ethan stopped him. "Dude, you can't just walk into Dr. O's house." Said Ethan a little concerned he might get detention again. "Why would he leave his door unlocked?" asked Conner and Ethan looked at him. "No neighbors. Privacy really isn't an issue here" asked Ethan and Conner walked in anyways. Conner looked around the house and saw a little T-Rex statue. "Cool, check it out" said Conner, and Ethan stopped him from touching the Jaw. "Remember what happened last time you did that" asked Ethan and Conner laughed. "Relax dude, Dr. O's our science teacher not (pulls down jaw, and a secret staircase opens) Batman" said Conner a little shell shocked. They both walked down the stairs, and just stood at the bottom of the stairs. "Are you thinking what I'm thinking?" asked Ethan and Conner chuckled. "For once yes, it looks like the same place from yesterday" said Conner and Tommy walked out from a room. "If you're looking for extra credit, you're in the wrong place" said Tommy crossing his arms over his chest.
Alex and Rose walked out wearing karate GI's and froze when she saw the boys standing in their base. "Okay, who put up a welcome sign for the geek and annoying jock?" asked Rose with her arms over her chest just like her dad. "They came un-invited" said Tommy, and Ethan looked at the twins. "Dr. O, Kira's gone, and we think it's about these" said Ethan holding a blue and yellow Dino Gems. Tommy sighed, and looked at them.
"I know this may be hard for you, but I need you to forget all you've seen here." Said Tommy and when he turned around Conner ran around to that side in super speed. "The gems have already started bonding with your DNA" said Tommy with a regretful tone.
"So would you like to tell us everything now, or at my next parent teacher conference?" asked Conner, and the twins glared at the soccer star because he was black mailing their dad, and teacher. "What were those drones that attacked us yesterday?" asked Conner, and Alex stepped up. "They're called Tyrrana-drones." Said Alex and Tommy glared at his daughter. "How does she know this?" asked Conner, and Tommy looked a little trapped. "I helped create them" said Tommy facing away from the teens. "Oh, class project?" asked Ethan a little sarcastically. "This wasn't their programming. Someone's changed it." Said Tommy, and everyone piled into his jeep.
At the mountain fortress
Kira lay on a table in a room with jars filled with different colored liquids, and different machines lined the walls. She sat up, and looked around. "Where am I?" asked Kira standing on the floor. Give me the gems! A voice Said in the room. She kept looking around for the voice until she saw a man/dino appear out of nowhere.
"Where are the Dino Gems?" asked Mesogog, and Kira stepped back a little. "I gave mine to Conner and Ethan, so you'll have to talk to them. Can I go home now? Its taco night and my mom will freak if I'm late" said Kira and Mesogog dissapered. "I got to stop eating cafeteria food" said Kira putting a hand to her head. "You'll be lucky if you even see food again" said a woman in all black. "Do I know you? You look familiar." Kira Said backing away. "My master calls me Elsa" said Elsa. "Your master? Okay, I'll just be going then" said Kira and Elsa tried to keep her there but Kira twisted her arm back and she freaked out. "I so didn't mean to do that" said Kira, and she ran out. "After her!" Elsa yelled while holding her arm. Drones chased after Kira, and she stopped a little ways down the hall to see a portal. She escaped through there, and fell on something.
Before Kira escaped
Tommy was driving down the road and he started explaining the origin of the drones. "I was doing research with my partner, Dr. Anton Mercer, "wait you mean the rich scientist who dissapered a few years ago?" asked Ethan interrupting. "Yes, it was when there was an accident on the island. I thought everything was destroyed, but apparently I was wrong," Tommy said, and he stopped at the four way intersection. "This is great and all. But how is this helping us find Kira?" asked Ethan and as if on cue, she fell on the hood. "How do you keep doing that?" asked Alex, and he smiled. They all got out of the jeep, and Ethan looked up. "How did you do that?" asked Ethan and Kira got off the hood. "I don't know." Said Kira "Do you remember where you were Kira?" asked Tommy standing beside Alex. "I was in this freaky lab with jars and machines everywhere, and then this dino man started asking me where the gems were and I just told them I didn't have them. He dissapered, and I was chased by some drones, then I'm a hood ornament. What are you guys doing here?" asked Kira looking around. "We came to save you" said Ethan a little hurt. "Does it look like I need to be saved?" asked Kira, and just as she finished saying it, a man with a robotic body, and the tyrrana-drones appeared. "I think you may have spoken a little too quickly." Said Tommy, and the twins stepped up in front. "Give me those dino gems Oliver!" said the creature, and Tommy laughed. "No way Zeltrax" Said Tommy and Zeltrax attacked. "Guess we have to fight" said Kira, and they all took on their own chunks while Tommy took on Zeltrax. Once the drones were taken care of, the teens helped out Tommy, and then Zeltrax retreated. "Coward!" yelled Alex, and she felt weak. She fell against Conner who happened to be standing beside her, and he caught her. "Alex, you okay?" asked Conner holding her arms. Tommy looked over and saw his daughter pale. "She needs to rest. Rose, can you call for your bike?" asked Tommy, and Rose nodded. She pushed a button on her belt, and her motor cycle came with the helmet on the seat. "I'll meet you at the house." Said Rose, and she drove off. Conner picked Alex up bridal style, and carried her to the jeep. He carefully placed her in the back seat with him, and Ethan rode up front while Kira sat beside Alex in the back.
At Tommy's house after everyone was home
Tommy carried Alex into the house, and Bloom was waiting there with her robe, and slippers on. "I need help bloom." Said Tommy and Bloom put her daughter on the couch. "She's been using too much energy Tommy. The dino gem is attached to her DNA now, if she uses the gem's power for too long, she'll die." Said Bloom and she fed more energy into her daughter's system. "Let her sleep here, I don't know if you can make it up the stairs with you all sore." Said Bloom noticing how he was sitting in the chair. "I'll make you some of my tea, that'll fix you right up" said Bloom and she went into the kitchen.
The next day at school
Alex and Rose sat in their seats when Cassidy started messing with Kira. "Look Cassidy, I understand that you're a reporter wanna-be, but leave Kira alone." Alex Said with a bite to her words and a growl in her throat. Cassidy backed off, and sat in her seat. "Dang sis, that was cold blooded even for you" said Rose, and Tommy walked over. "Are you okay honey?" asked Tommy and he felt her forehead. "I'm fine dad. I just didn't get any sleep last night" said Alex, and Tommy kissed her forehead. "You're going to bed early tonight" said Tommy and all of a sudden the sky went black. The classroom then started shaking, and the rangers in training ran out the door while the intercom announced an emergency release.
At Tommy's house
Dr. Oliver led the teens down a secret stairway in his house, which led to the same room where they'd found the gems. The teens were expecting it besides Kira. Dr. Oliver pulled up the news on the computer, and looked at the teens. "Some of my creations, called Dino Zords, have been turned into evil Bio Zords and released into the city," he said. "So what are we supposed to do about it?" asked Conner, and Kira looked at him. He placed a briefcase on a table between him and the teens.
"The Gems that you have are called dino gems; part of the meteor that caused the extinction of the dinosaurs. Mesogog is after them and he'll do anything to get them. When I found them I had an old friend of mine, a scientist named Billy, help me make these devices in case I needed to harness their power," he said. He opened the briefcase and turned it so the teens could see its contents. "These are Dino Morphers, they'll allow you to use the Dino Gems' energy to become Power Rangers," Tommy said. "I got to sit down…" Ethan said, quickly sitting in a chair. "Breathe dude," Conner said helping him into the chair. Kira looked at her teacher and got a little freaked out.
"We can't be Power Rangers, aren't you supposed to fly, or have superhuman strength, stuff like that?" Kira said. "You do," Rose responded, subtly rolling her eyes. "Oh yeah, I forgot," Kira responded with a laugh. "Are you sure we're right for this?" Conner asked. "The gems chose you, I know you are," Tommy answered. "Can't they UN-choose us?" Ethan asked.
"The only way these powers can be taken away is if you're destroyed," Alex responded for her dad. "For future reference, not a good selling point," Ethan remarked finally able to stand up.
"Look, the gems wouldn't have bonded to you if there wasn't already something inside you that could handle the power. Please," Tommy said, pushing the briefcase a few inches towards the teens. Conner, Ethan and Kira reluctantly took the Morphers. "So, is there some kind of secret password or command?" Ethan asked. "Nerd…" Conner remarked. Alex smacked him across the back of the head and glared at him. He turned around and glared back. "just be lucky I didn't kick you this time" said Alex smiling and Conner turned back around.
"Say the words 'Dino Thunder, power up' and you'll be transformed. You'll know what to do," Tommy answered. "Dino Thunder. What, did you come up with that?" Conner asked, looking at Ethan. "I kind of like it," Ethan replied. "You would," Conner retorted. Tommy sighed. Alex kicked the back of Conner's leg, and everyone laughed when he fell to the floor. "Alex, stop doing that" said Conner getting back up. "Then be nicer to Ethan." Alex said holding her pink raptor morpher.
"Look, I know you three are from different worlds, but you're gonna have to work together or this'll never happen. This won't be easy; nobody knows that better than me. Just believe in yourselves," Tommy said. "Really?" Conner questioned with a raised eyebrow. "Really," Tommy and his twins responded.
DOWNTOWN
Tommy parked his Jeep in a parking lot. He and the teens climbed out and looked up at the rampaging Zords. The Dino Zords were a grayish green and were rampaging around town. Before anything could be said or done, Zeltrax appeared.
"Greetings Dr. Oliver and company, I am Zeltrax. I cannot allow you to go further, or you might ruin my master's plans," he said. "I guess we have a problem then. Now!" Tommy said.
"Dino Thunder, power up! Ha!" the five teens exclaimed. They were morphed into the Red, Yellow, Blue, Pink and Purple Power Rangers. Zeltrax cursed under his breath and then summoned some Tyrannodrones. "Summon your weapons; they're in your belts!" Tommy shouted.
"You got it Dr. O!" Conner responded. Soon he was holding a Tyranno Staff, while Ethan and Kira held a Tricera Shield and Ptera Grips respectfully. Alex and Rose held Katana's with raptor heads on the hilts of the swords. They defeated the drones swiftly, but fought a losing battle against Zeltrax.
"Rangers, combine your weapons!" Tommy ordered. The Rangers did so, resulting in a large blaster that they held together. "t-Rex Blaster!" they cried.
The Rangers' fired, and their shot hit dead on. Zeltrax was dealt heavy damage, so he retreated to a massive ship flying over the city. The Rangers then ran towards the Zords, knowing that they had to tame them. "you have to tame them. It's the only way to beat Zeltrax now" said Tommy standing by his car.
"You got it!" Ethan cut in. He held up his morpher, and seconds later the Tricera Zord was under his control.
"My turn!" Kira cried. She held up her morpher, and seconds later she had control of the Ptera Zord. "Conner, the Tyrannosaurus is out of control!" Ethan said. "Come on, I need you to work with me here!" Conner shouted at the T-Rex. He held up his morpher, and managed to gain control of the berserk Zord. "Only one more thing to do, bring em' together!" Tommy said, running up to him.
The twins spoke to their raptor zords and then they turned pink and purple. "never seen pink and purple raptors before. That's interesting" said Alex and the twins laughed.
The five Rangers jumped into their Zords, and began the process of combining all five of them. Within a minute, the five Rangers stood together inside the Megazord. "Your robot is no match for me, Fire!" Zeltrax exclaimed. Lasers fired down at the Megazord, rocking it a little. "Okay now I'm steamed!" Conner said with a growl.
"Really, THAT'S your brilliant comeback?" Alex commented, Conner blushed in his helmet. Meanwhile, Zeltrax's ship shot down two long cables, which the Rangers grabbed with the Megazord. Suddenly the cables were charged with electricity, shocking the Rangers and causing them to release the cables. "Time to head for the back of the net" Conner exclaimed. "Great, a corny soccer analogy to go with a cornier soccer player…" Alex commented as the Megazord grabbed one of the cables. The Rangers' giant robot used the cable to swing up on top of the ship, getting an aerial view of it. "There's the heart of the ship!" Ethan remarked. "Looks like you're up Conner!" Alex remarked. "Don't miss!" Kira added. "Don't tell him that, you wanna jinx us?" asked Rose, and the twins highfived.
"Dino drill, engage!" Conner cried. The Megazord activated the drill on its left arm and tore through the center of Zeltrax's ship. As the Rangers landed, the ship exploded into tiny pieces. Zeltrax, however, had teleported out just in time.
In Dino Thunder HQ/Tommy's secret basement
Dr. Oliver stood in front of Conner, Ethan, Kira, and his daughters with the briefcase, which now contained five bracelets with the red, yellow, blue, pink, and purple Dino Gems embedded into them.
"Keep these bracelets with you at all times. They'll access your Morphers when you need them, and you can use these to communicate with me, my wife and with each other," Tommy said, handing them out.
"Dr. O I know you're real smart, and a science teacher and everything, but this is, well, I mean how did you-," Kira started. "I'll fill you in, in time," Tommy answered. "Speaking of time, you think Mesogog's gonna stick around for a while?" Ethan asked. "Unfortunately they always do," Tommy answered. "They" Conner questioned. "I know this is a lot to take in," Tommy said, obviously avoiding the question. "That's for sure," Ethan remarked. The twins glared the interruption and looked back at their dad.
"Your lives have just changed in ways you probably couldn't have imagined, but as long as you work together, and remember, you're a team, no one can defeat you. No one," Tommy finished. The teens absorbed the information for a few seconds, before someone was heard coming down the stairs.
"Guys, I made cookies. Come upstairs before they get cold" said Bloom looking around at the group with a smaller version of their bracelets but her gem was a rainbow color. "Hey mom" Said the twins, and they all ran upstairs.
