Chapter 4 Finding the Doctor
Billy had just finished showing the Rangers their new bikes.
"Sweet," Ethan said.
"Amazing," Kira gasped.
Kira could not keep her eyes off of them. The three bikes were in their colors.
"Which one's mine?" Conner asked. Kira and Ethan just looked at Conner. "I'm kidding."
Ethan and Kira rolled their eyes.
"Oh, you so weren't kidding," Ethan laughed.
"Whatever dude," Conner said.
"You have to hit maximum speed of 578 miles per hour into an invisportal to get to Mesogog's island fortress," Billy told them.
When Conner heard that they were going to an island, he took a deep breath.
"Wait, did you just say island fortress?" he asked.
"Yes," Billy answered. "Why?"
"Well, islands, they're surrounded by water," Conner said.
"Usually," Billy nodded.
Ethan looked at him. Was Conner really saying that?
"No. You can't swim," Ethan laughed.
"I didn't say that," Conner protested.
"But it's true. You can't," Ethan said.
Conner turned from him and sighed.
"Don't worry," Billy laughed. "Beings as you're going through an invisaportal; you'll never have to touch water."

Tommy was trying his best to stall in having to open to gem for Mesogog.
"Are you going to open it or not?" Mesogog asked.
He was now standing in front of the gem. His hands where untied, but Tyrannodrones were right behind him in case he tried to escape.
"Promise me you won't hurt Kimberly or Maggie," Tommy said.
"You have my word," Mesogog hissed.
Tommy held on to his swore wrists after Zeltrax released him for his restraints.

Kim's head was in her hands. She could not lose him. He was her love, father of her daughter.
"Hey, are you going to be okay?" Trini asked.
"Huh? Oh yeah, I'll be all right," Kim said. "Tommy's a grown man. He can take care of himself."
"And you keep telling yourself that because it's true," Trini smiled.
Billy jumped out of the chair and smiled. Trini and Kim quickly ran to him.
"All right, they made it in," Billy smiled.
"Oh, thank God," Kim said.

Tommy's hand was placed over the stone. He closed his eyes, praying that the kids would break in.
"Do it," Mesogog commanded. A million thoughts ran through his mind as his hand drew closer to the gem. He wondered what would happen if he tried running. Would Mesogog go after him, or Kim and Maggie? Would the Rangers get to him it time? "Tick tock, time's wasting."
"All right," Tommy sighed.
"Dr. O, no," the Red Ranger yelled.
"Huh?" Tommy asked.
As he turned, Conner pushed him to the ground.
"You all right?" Conner asked.
"Now that you guys are here," Tommy said. Kira and Ethan were fending off Tyranndrones when Conner and Tommy made it to their feet. Tommy grabbed the enclosed gem and ran out. "Guys, get the bikes now!"
"Right behind you," Kira said.
"And I'm right behind you," Ethan replied.

When Tommy did not appear from the dust, the Rangers thought the worst. Conner looked around.
"Huh?" he asked.
Everywhere Conner looked, there seemed to be no sign of Tommy.
"Dr. Oliver," Ethan yelled, but no answer.
"No! This can't be happening," Kira cried.
Elsa shook her head and laughed.
"Such negativity. Haven't you learned that in our world anything is possible?" she asked.
"Even the destruction of the great Dr. Tommy Oliver," Zeltrex said.
Tommy started to appear. The three Rangers gasped.
"I heard my name. You missed me, didn't you?" Tommy laughed.
The three Rangers ran up to Tommy.
"Yes," Conner yelled.
"Awesome," Ethan added.
"All right," Kira said.
Conner saw Tommy holding something.
"Hey, Dr. O, what's this?" he asked.
He opened his hand to show a black rock. Ethan knew what it was.
"A Black Dino gem. Let me guess, the power of invisibility," he said.
"Looks like it," Tommy replied. Tommy looked over at Elsa. "There are two things you need to learn about dino gems. One, you can't choose them, they choose you."
"What's the other?" Elsa asked.
"They go real good with dino morphers," Tommy said.
Tommy placed the gem into his morpher.
"Aren't you a little too old for this, Tommy?" Elsa asked.
"I may be old, but I still pull it off," he said.

Kim took a deep breath after Tommy showed her the gem. She knew Billy had made him a morpher just in case, but she was hoping he would never have to use it.
"So, I guess you're back on duty," Kim sighed. Kim looked down. "Just don't leave me like I did."
"Why would I leave you?" Tommy asked.
"I mean I don't want to lose you. I was really freaking out today," Kim cried.
"You won't lose me, Kim," Tommy promised. Tommy pulled his wife in his arms and kissed her. He knew how hard this was on Kim knowing he would be in danger by being in battle. "Well, we better get going."
"Going, where are we going?" Kim asked.
"Shopping," Tommy said. "I checked the closet this morning, and there's a serious shortage of black in there."
"Off to the mall then," Kim smiled.
