Chapter 5- Revelations- part 1
"Did you guys happen to bring any of the SPD rangers with you?" Jack Landors, the Red SPD Ranger asked.
"What?" asked Andros.
"Hey aren't Jack and Mr. Doggie from the future?" Billy asked.
"Commander Cruger and I were able to use an old time traveling device left to us by an old friend but unfortunately," Jack replied, "The warp was unstable and only me and the Commander were sent here. I was hoping that the rest of the Space Patrol Delta Rangers had been able to make it to this timeline some other way."
"Oh, SPD… nope, none of that," Andros said, "But I am wondering about the same thing of Jason."
"He won't be showing," Tommy said as a cold demur swept over him, "At least, he better not."
"So it's true. Jason did…." Andros asked as he walked toward the White Ranger.
"Yes," Tommy said quickly.
"Tommy, no more," Zordon interrupted, "Rangers, you must all be quick. Ivan Ooze's forces are now regrouping their forces after the impact of the Astro Megaship. This is your chance."

"How's your sister doing Cestro?" Billy said as he and the others came back from the roof.
"Your wife is safe Billy," Cestro replied.
"Billy's married?" Rocky asked.
"Yes, to my sister and they have 2 children," Cestro said.
"Wow, of all the rangers, Billy gets married before me," Rocky replied.
"And to an alien

"Right," Ninjor spoke up, "Let's go."
"Power Red!" Andros shouted, as he once again became the Red Space Ranger.
"White Ranger Aquitar Power!" Delphine shouted.
"Red Ranger Aquitar Power!" Aurico shouted.
"Blue Ranger Aquitar Power!" Cestro shouted.
"Yellow Ranger Aquitar Power!" Tideus shouted.
"Black Ranger Aquitar Power!" Corcus shouted.
The Power Rangers, their allies, and the Masked Rider started walking down towards the Ocean. The buildings ran on either side of the mass of Rangers. The roads, torn asunder by the battles that had ensued, were huddled with trash. If a random person had woke up from a coma they would've thought the apocalypse had occurred.
"How much farther Zordon?" Tommy asked into his watch.
"You're close Tommy, but up farther, there seems to be some interference." Zordon replied.
"What do you think it could be?" Doggie asked.
"Trouble," replied Ninjor.
The army of Rangers came around the next block to reveal the Ocean, the Statue of Liberty, an army of Ooze clones, and…. one man.
----------------------------------
10 Hours later….
The Time Force Rangers, after picking up the SPD and Wild West Rangers, had finally succeeded in time traveling to the present day… only at the wrong time. 10 Hours after the battle with Ooze, New York and mankind had met with extinction and ruin.
New York City was in ashes. Where grandiose buildings once stood, ruin now cascaded horizon to horizon. The gray sky above filled the air with a dead atmosphere. A giant crater stood in the middle of the expanding wreckage. The crater looked as if a nuclear explosion had taken place and in the center of it sat one man. He was balled up on the ground moaning and wailing. Wes, the Red Time Ranger, and Eric, the Quantum Ranger, recognized the Man at once by the suit he wore.
Jason Lee Scott, the Original Red Ranger and now the last surviving human being after the battle, save the time travelers, sat crying at his heels. The Might Morphin' Red Ranger suit he wore was stained with blood and sitting in front of him was a torn up white helmet.
"I did this, didn't I?" Jason whispered into nothingness as madness set in, "Why me…. God, Why me!"
"Jason!" Wes yelled as he ran to meet the last surviving Original Ranger.
"O, it is you, Wes…. Hahahha Now I MUST be insane!" Jason said back. A slight chuckle came out of him like he had just heard a joke.
"Jason, what happened?" Eric asked.
"I killed him…. I killed them all. Even you!" Jason said as he stared off into the visor of the white helmet that sat in front of him.
"What do you mean?"
"You are dead and I killed you…. I killed all of you! I even killed him…"
"Who is He Jason, who is "He"?"
"I killed him…. I killed Tommy! O'God…. I killed him and then I destroyed everything…."
The rangers now saw what the White helmet was. The White Tiger helmet sat on the ground…. Its cracked visor showed the face of…. Tommy.
Tommy's head had been ripped off by his best friend, the Red Ranger, Jason.
-------------------------------------------
Present Time- Present Day
The Ranger army came face to face with their old ally and the original Ranger, Jason Lee Scott.
"Jason! Guys it's Jason!" yelled Kimberly.
"Everybody stay back!" Tommy yelled over the voices of recognition, "I knew it Jason. You bastard, you killed them…. You killed them ALL!"
"What are you talking about Tommy?" Kimberly asked.
"One week ago…. That man destroyed Terra Venture," Doggie responded, "His face has been on every SPD ranger's wanted list,"
"That's right," Tommy replied, "Our friend, Jason, has murdered an entire colony."
"What, Tommy are you okay, man?" Rocky said as he ran forward to meet Jason, "It's only Jason."
"Rocky wait!" Tommy yelled out, as Jason became a blur of motion.
In a flash of a second Jason had Rocky pinned up by the throat.
"Rocky NO!" screamed Aisha.
"Why are you doing this?" Rocky asked as a cracking sound came from Jason's hand gripping Rocky's throat. "Weren't we friends? Jason…. ARG!" Rocky's eyed shed tears of sadness and pain that begged reason from his predecessor. The one man Rocky had always been compared to. Jason, the man who's shoes he could never fill. The one man he respected as his elder though barely different in age…. And he was killing him.
Jason's eyes were non-responsive but they held a dark look.
"Friend! I have no friends." Jason screamed out, "DIE RANGER!"
The crack echoed out like lightning and at once everyone knew. Rocky was dead…. Though morphed he had stood no chance.
"I believe this belongs to me," said Jason as he tore the Morpher from the lifeless body and threw him to the rest of the Rangers. "Now I shall fulfill my duty. I shall rip the flesh from your bones, Power Rangers!"
"Goddamn you Jason!" Tommy yelled back, "Terra Venture and now Rocky!
"You're forgetting one person, old friend…." Jason said back. His face held a crooked smile like a 4 year old that knew he had played a practical joke.
"No… you didn't!" Tommy screamed…. Though he had his helmet on… everyone knew he was crying.
"Do you know where Trini is Tommy?" asked Jason.
"No! You Fucker!"
"That is right," answered Jason, "I killed her like the pitiful creature she was. She thought that she could protect Terra Venture after she found out about me…. So you say Fuck Me! Well, Tommy? Hahahha! Fuck this! Tyrannosaurus!"
The red flash of light swept the entire Power Ranger off its feet.
The Original Red Ranger had returned but to everyone's surprise…. That meant doom for the rest.

"Alpha I am afraid that our worst fears have come true. Our new enemy is, Jason."
---------------------------------------
What is wrong with Jason?
Is the future that is visited by the Time Force and others really true? Will Jason kill Tommy?
And when will the Unknown Power's show their true identity?
