Cat: Thanks so much to my reviewers! There were some good points brought up that I'd like to clarify. I love Devin and Cassidy. I would never want them slandered in any way. The Dino Rangers saw that their identities were on TV and jumped to conclusions, as they find out much later.

Sunwinged: Way to give away what's coming.

Cat: I haven't given away too much.

Sunwinged: In response to the question about the ruins being destroyed, they were rebuilt for the purposes of this fanfiction.

Cat: Also, in the future, when you see a part that screams either, "RANDOM!" or "OOC!" at you, and it is very drawn out and deliberate, then it is probably foreshadowing and I ask that you don't jump all over me about it, I apologize, I just wanted to throw in some hints of what's to come. Also, in response to some comments saying I need to clarify everything that is happening, things do get much clearer in the chapters to come. Things get explained slowly over time so I don't spend the first five chapters stuffing information down your throats.

Disclaimer: I wish I owned the Power Rangers because then this story would be in Theaters and called Power Rangers: The Best Movie Ever and not just a fanfic.

She screamed because four strong hands had grabbed her and pulled her backwards. It was strangled because a fifth hand was over her mouth. She was pulled, struggling wildly, into a hollow on the inside of the T Rex's leg. Kira twisted out of their grasp, and her muscles took a fighting stance of their own accord.

There were several people in her line of sight, not that there weren't more out of her sight. However, the three that she could see held their hands up in a sign of peace. "Woah." Said the man. He was wearing a leather jacket over an oil-stained red shirt.

"Relax." Said a girl in a bright pink shirt. Kira took an instant disliking to the girl, though she would never be able to explain why. Possibly because she seemed like the type of girl who always had to have perfect nails, and who spent hours on her hair and who would actually allow her boyfriend to carry her books. In short, the exact opposite of Kira. It also could have been because she had just helped to pull Kira into a situation where she was entirely uncomfortable and completely outnumbered.

She glanced at the other girl. She was wearing a yellow tank top and a black skort. She was Asian-American and looked like a nice enough person. However nice she may have looked, the girl in yellow grabbed Kira's wrist and tried to pull her to the ground.

Kira yanked away just as about two hundred people, all screaming for the yellow Ranger, ran past. Kira watched with baited breath as they looked around, then shrugged and ran around the back of the building. Kira turned back to the three. "Thanks." She said, if somewhat grudgingly.

"You're the Yellow Ranger, right?" Asked the girl in pink. Having spent the last two weeks being constantly assaulted by reporters and fans alike, and having just escaped from two mobs of adoring patrons, Kira was not exactly happy to find yet another person who wanted to bother her. So, it was easily understandable when Kira completely blew her top, though she would remember that fact as intensely embarrassing in the future.

"I'M NOT A RANGER ANYMORE!"

"We were kinds hoping for a 'yes'" said a familiar male voice behind her. "But I guess that works." Kira spun around.

"Dustin?" He glanced down at his arms and legs.

"Last time I checked."

"Hey Kira." Shane said brightly.

"How's it goin?" Tori asked.

"Well, you probably know how it's goin' since it's been on every TV station in the city." Kira said dryly.

"In the country actually." Said the woman in pink. Kira crossed her arms over her chest with a, who-do-you-think-you-are? Manner.

"Not helping." Shane informed her.

"Oh. Sorry." She blushed hideously and Kira couldn't help but scoff. "And in case you were wondering, I'm Kimberly Heart, the Pink Ranger." Kira raised an eyebrow.

"Riiiiight." She said sarcastically. She pointed at the girl in yellow. "So that would make you Trini, the Yellow Ranger." Her finger moved to the guy. "And you would have to be Jason Scott, the original red Ranger." He nodded.

"You catch on fast." He said. Kira took a step back.

"Jason Scott? The original Red Ranger? You really are him right? I mean, this isn't some kind of practical joke?" The Rangers all laughed, Kimberly particularly shrilly.

"No joke." Jason replied.

"Dr. O'll go ballistic when he finds out!" She paused. "Conner'll go ballistic when he finds out!"

"Hey, don't you mean they'll go prehistoric?" Dustin asked, grinning hopefully. "It's good huh?" No one was even smiling, just staring.

"Dustin, man," Shane said, clapping him on the shoulder. "Give it up." Kira whipped out her cell phone.

"Hey um, Dr. O?" She asked.

"Yeah Kira? Anything wrong?"

"Not really, but the Ninja Rangers just saved me from an insane mob and they brought a couple of friends and I was thinking we could swing by the Ruins to maybe get a little privacy." Kira explained.

"Well that depends. Who is it again?"

"Well, Shane, Tori, and Dustin, and then some guy and two of his friends."

"What guy?" Tommy asked suspiciously.

"Oh," Kira said casually."

"It's just JASON SCOTT!" she ended in a squeal.

"Did you say Jason Scott?" Tommy asked.

"Yup. He's right here." She glanced at him and he smiled warmly. She had to admit, he was really hot. Really really hot, even if he was too old for her. Kira hung up the phone happily.

"Come on." She said, peering out from the safety of the dino. "We're meeting the guys at the Ruins."

"Great." Dustin said cheerfully. "How do we get there?" Kira was already leading them into the woods and Kimberly was glancing around apprehensively. I'll have to remember to walk Miss Priss into a cobweb or something. Kira thought with an uncharacteristic stroke of cruelty. I'll bet she passes out.

"We're taking the back way." Kira replied.

"Through the woods?" Trini asked hesitantly.

"Uh huh."

"You're sure we won't get lost?" Kimberly asked.

"I'm positive." Kira said coldly. "I know these woods like the back of my hand."

"Really?" Jason asked. "Do you spend a lot of time here?"

"Not really that much." Kira admitted, ducking a low hanging branch. "But it seems like we were always fighting monsters down here."

"Like what?" Trini asked.

"Well, Conner Ethan and I got attacked by a bunch of Tyranadrons over there." Kira began. "Then over there Ethan and Dr. O found the Raptor Riders." She said, indicating the south west.

"Um. Who's Dr. O?" Kimberly asked.

"Oh. He's the lucky one of us." Kira said, purposely avoiding his name. She stepped down several almost hidden stone stepped and entered a long dark hall. "All his papers were easily accessible to our principal, and because we saved her life, she had them destroyed. And then no too many people knew much about him anyway, so all the TV studious got was the back of his head and no one could match it so they stopped running that shot."

"So, who is he?" Kimberly asked again.

"What's the point in telling you when you're going to see for yourself in about thirty seconds?" Kira wondered. The Rangers looked around.

"I don't see anything." Dustin said. Tori rolled her eyes and Kira smiled slightly. She brushed aside a large quantity of spanish moss to reveal the skeleton of a T Rex. A small one, but a skeleton none the less.

She gripped the lower jaw carefully, remembering Conner's words on the day they had found their powers. "This'll get us out of detention forever." She smiled slighlt as she tugged on the bone and the wall slid back.

"Sweet digs you got here." Dustin said. "Get it? 'Digs' as in 'place' and 'dig' as in 'dig up dinosaur bones'?"

"Yeah, we get it man." Shane said, shaking his head. "It just wasn't funny."

"Besides," Jason said in confusion. "Haven't you been here before?"

"It was a joke, man!"

"So, where's Dr. O?" Tori asked, changing the subject loudly.

"I'm right here." Tommy said, stepping out from behind a pillar. He stopped dead and Kimberly fainted.

"Tommy?" She asked weakly. It was a couple minutes later and Tommy had Kimberly propped up against his arm.

"Hey Kim." He smiled. "It's been a while." She scramble to her feet, and brushed off some imaginary dirt. "Kira," Tommy rounded on her. "How come you didn't tell me that Kimberly and Trini were here?"

"How was I supposed to know that it mattered?" Kira wanted to know. Tommy was racking his brain for a reply, but was spared the trouble by the loud entrance of two guys.

Ethan and Conner came bursting down the front stairs. "So, Dr. O." Conner said, not looking up. "You said there was someone you wanted us to meet?" When they hit the first landing, Ethan and Conner turned to the see exactly who the room contained. They both paused.

"Hey Dustin." Conner said gaily. "What's up Shane? Tori?" He moved to hurry down the rest of the stairs but Ethan held out an arm to stop him, almost sending the Ex Red Ranger tumbling down instead of hurrying down. "What?" He asked loudly.

"Don't you know who that is?" Ethan asked.

"Who Dustin Shane and Tori?"

"No."

"Dr. O?"

"No." Ethan's voice had a trace of impatience.

"Kira?" Conner asked. Ethan looked at him as if he was extremely stupid. Which, by comparison, might not have been untrue. He flung an arm out in the direction of the three Originals.

"That's Jason Scott." Conner screwed up his face in extreme concentration.

"I know who he is." He lied. "No don't tell me." He said, though Ethan showed no signs of telling him. "He's…um…" He snapped his fingers in triumph and grinned. "He was the mayor two terms ago." Kira snorted and Dustin laughed out loud.

"He's the Red Ranger?" Jason asked.

"The gem bonded with his DNA. It couldn't have been anyone else." Tommy groaned.

"Oh well." Jason shrugged. "I suppose it is the heart that matters. Right kid?"

"Did I miss something?" Conner wanted to know.

"That's Jason Scott." Ethan repeated. Conner looked at him blankly. "He was the original red dude."

"The Original Red Ranger?" Conner repeated. "Here? He's here?" He jumped the rest of the stairs. "Dude! Can I get your autograph?" He asked, shuffling around desperately for a pen and paper.

"Conner." Kira said. He didn't seem to hear. "Conner." She said, a lot louder, and much firmer, though he didn't stop his quest. "Conner!" Kira shouted and slapped him across the face. That got his attention. He started at her, completely dumbfounded.

The entire room was silent as Kira scolded him. "That's exactly what people are doing to us so cut it out!"

"But Kira." He whinned. "That's Jason Scott. The ORIGINAL RED RANGER!"

"Yeah, and that's Shane, the NINJA STORM RED RANGER. Do you want his autograph too?"

"Woah now." Shane said loudly. "Don't drag me into this!"

"Kira you don't get it. That's the ORIGINAL RED!" Kira sighed and decided to ignore him.

"Forget Conner." Ethan told the other rangers. "He'll be in a daze for the next three days, so just hope we don't need more than two red guys."

"Three." Kimberly corrected automatically.

"Oh that's right, Dr. O's been every color." Ethan said.

"Not every color." Dr. Oliver said, feeling somewhat embarrassed. Ethan hadn't exactly made it sound like a compliment.

"You've been four different colors! That's more then anyone ever!" Ethan said, slightly shrilly.

"Calm down buddy." Trent said, appearing suddenly from the wall. Kimberly screamed and Trini, Dustin and Shane jumped a mile.

"How'd you do that?" Jason asked.

"Dino Gem power." Trent shrugged. "They may not have enough power for morphing anymore, but they still come in handy." Jason glanced at his friends, and then took a threatening step towards Trent.

"You sound just like a villain. Just like Tommy did when he was working for Rita."

"I've been evil." Trent said. "I don't plan on going back if that's what you're asking." Trent rose to the challenge, then up-ed it one. "But, if someone goes around threatening allies then one has to wonder what side they're really on."

"What are you saying?" Jason asked, his eyes narrowed.

"I think you know what I'm saying." Trent replied easily.

"Trent!" Kira admonished.

"Jason." Trini said warning and at the same time. They both took a step back, though they continued to glare.

"So." Ethan said loudly to break up the quiet. "Has anyone seen Haylie lately?"

"She's been playing dumb about the whole Ranger thing." Tommy answered.

"Who's Haylie?" Kimberly asked sharply.

"She owns the local café." Kira explained.

"Haylie knows everything." Ethan added.

"Everything?" Trini asked skeptically.

"Ok, maybe not everything." Kira allowed. "But seriously, sometimes it's scary how much she knows."

"She's our engineer." Tommy informed his friends.

"Were you guys talking about me?" Haylie asked. There were some stifled screams at her sudden entrance.

"Told you." Ethan said.

Cat: I apologize for the Kim-bashing, I just honestly don't think that she and Kira would get along very well. Still, if it is driving you nuts, or you liked it, or you thought this chapter is not good, please review. I'd love tips to make my writing better.
