"Clever," Kim said, "But your brother does remember what happened last time we did something like this, right?"
"Come on, surely they won't make the same mistake twice."
"Yes Karone they will." Kim muttered more to herself than to her friend.
Her friend, however, had the sharp hearing of a power ranger and heard that, though all she did was nod in agreement.
Leslie had been warned that the power rangers were borderline crazy, that was one reason she asked Tommy and his wife to chaperone the school's senior beach party, in the hopes that the best way to stop the teens from going crazy was to put an adult that already knew just how crazy they were. She was not expecting a teacher to join forces with the students, nor had she expected them to have excess to a giant magnet that they used to lift the school bus that they used to transport everyone to the beach up into the air, stranding everyone who didn't drive up themselves.
She had groaned when she had heard that piece of news from the bus driver who had just happened to still be on the bus when it had been lifted up. Hopefully Tommy or Kim might be able to get it down. She dialed the number that Tommy had listed.
"Thank you for calling the power ranger hotline please state your emergency and we will get to you as soon as possible."
Leslie groaned, never again, she was never going to hire a former power ranger as a teacher ever again, they were worst than students. As was proven as she stepped out of her office and was nearly run over by a student dressed up as a monster, at least she hoped it was a student and not an actual monster. She fought the urge to roll her eyes as she saw another group of students dressed as power rangers, they had made sure that the costumes were as poor of quality as could be, so that people wouldn't notice that the students in the helmets sounded an awful lot like the actual rangers. She shook her head, this was insane.
"Dr. Oliver," Leslie snapped trying to do her best Elsa impression, "I don't know what is going on, but I do know that you are involved somehow."
Tommy, who had been following after the teens stopped and turned around to face her, "Now what ever gave you that idea?"
"The giant magnet and the school bus," she explained, giving him a hard look, "Do I even want to know what that is about?"
Tommy shrugged, "The machine Empire once decided to go through Billy's lab to see if he had anything they could use. Even though Billy never was a strong fighter, he sure did know how to use his head, and his magnet. Kim told him to lock up his shrink ray so I asked for the magnet instead."
She was about to ask, she was questioning rather or not she wanted to hear the answer or not, just why did this Billy fellow gave him the magnet after being informed that he wanted his shrink way for a prank. She never got a chance to ask though because Dr. Oliver was called away with a shout of, "Dr. O."
Leslie shook her head, maybe she should call the fire department and let them know that any alarms at the school would be false alarms because she wouldn't pass it off on Ethan to trigger a fire alarm.
...
Kim was not impressed when she saw the terrified bus driver trying to figure out how to get down from several feet in the sky, she knew where Tommy got the magnet but where did he get the crane?
"Do you know anybody who is in construction?" Karone asked, following her gaze.
Kim shook her head, "No, most of us went into martial arts or emergency response, none of us went into construction, not even when we went to school."
"And some of us are still trying to figure out how your husband got his PhD."
"When Tommy finds something he loves to do he goes at it with a single mindedness and suddenly he was a doctor."
The bus driver still stranded in the air decided that he better let the two women, who were obviously talking about the bus being suspended in thin air, know that he would like to come down, "Can you, maybe, I don't know, HELP ME DOWN!"
Karone and Kim looked up, "Hey Kim do you know how to work a crane?"
Kim shook her head, "I can fly just about anything, but ground vehicles, that's a different story, you?"
"You're better than I am, I can only fly spaceships and my zord. Anything else and I get a ride."
Kim entered the cab of the crane, "How hard can it be? One of these levers should lower the cable and one of these buttons should release the magnet.
"Not necessarily," Karone pointed out, "Billy could have easily made it so that the magnet only could be activated by a remote control."
Kim nodded, testing the levers, "You're probably right, sounds like something Billy would do, a remote control button was less likely to get pressed by accident during a battle because he could easily leave it somewhere safe." She pulled one of the levers down, thankful for her ability to adapt to any vehicle so quickly, even if she didn't feel comfortable with it, at least this vehicle wasn't falling out of the sky, like most of the planes she had to fly had been. Even with a fast adaption sometimes there wasn't time for that, luckily Alpha had been able to help back then.
The Bus landed softly on the sand and the bus driver scampered out of the bus, glad to be free of his impromptu prison.
