A day had passed since the battle with their first monster, and since classes had ended for the day the rangers had all met up in H3 as requested by Judith. The group plus Neil had all teleport in as Judith seemed to be checking over a few things on the monitor.

Van saw them and comes up "Afternoon you four. I take it you day went well?" He asked as Hayden groans.

"Pop quiz in Mrs. Hale's class. She is the toughest history teacher I have ever met." He said as Kairi shakes her head.

"That's a matter of opinion. I like her honestly, but Mr. Rays bores even me. He actually makes biology boring." Kairi said as she had struggled a bit to stay awake in his class all the time.

JR huffs "Says you. He's at least strict. Mr. Sanders let's people do whatever they want during his lesson. Hard to focus with a bunch of people tapping away texting on their phones." JR said.

"No arguments there. Then again Mrs. Amour tends to bring in to many snacks for her students." Vic said.

Neil sighed "Can we just say that we all dislike a certain teacher without naming names, and move on?" He asked them all.

"Fine." Everyone agreed.

Van nods to them "Good. Now while your doing good you still are all untrained. Which is our fault. We've been busy with everything that we haven't had time to give you proper training. Though that ends now." He says and signals them all to follow him to the training room.

When they entered they were all surprised that their clothes changed into something else more suited for training. Each outfit were coded to there color while Van's was a vibrant orange and red.

"Before you ask Judith asked a mutual friend to enchant the room so you'd all have a training outfits whenever you enter. That way you have a full range of motion similar to when your morphed." He said to them.

"Ohh...okay. Though how does Judith know all these mutual friends?" JR asked him.

"No clue. She won't tell me." Van lied as Judith had actually told him, but he figured that it was more Judith's story to tell the rangers when the right time came.

"Fine. Well at least We'll get to train." Hayden says cracking his knuckles in excitement as he hadn't got a good fight in this long ever since he left...

"No! Don't go thinking about them." Hayden chastised himself as he had almost started thing about his past. He still avoided that part of town like the plague, but he still finds himself on occasion having to go there and avoiding them.

"Well since your so excited Hayden then you may come at me first." Van said to him. Unfortunately for him Van was more more experienced than he had thought, and had trounced him bad. The others had been beaten just as bad, but Hayden's was by far the worst in his own opinion. Because he couldn't land a single blow compared to the others who had each managed to land one blow, but what was surprising was that Kairi had manged to land a good ten hits before Van had beat her.

Hayden was grumbling at this "Each of you did really well, but you all have improvements that you could make." Van said looking at JR first.

"JR you take to many risks and leave yourself open at critical moments. You need to be more careful, and figure out when's the right time to chance a hit." Van told her, and then looks to Vic.

"Vic your the exact opposite. You are calculated and precise, but that makes you predictable and easy to read." He said to Vic as his gaze then went to Kairi.

"Kairi you are calm, collected, and calculating, but you hesitate to often. That will cost you in a split second." Van finally looked to Hayden.

"Hayden you are reckless, and while that is a good thing a smart person will be able to predict your blows coming. All they have to do is wear you out, but if you calmed yourself a bit perhaps you'd last longer." He said.

Hayden looks away hearing this "Yeah yeah I get it." He said to him.

"Hayden you might be our resident tough guy, but your still a rookie, and well a bit unhinged if I'm honest." Van said.

Hayden glares "I said I get it alright!" He says voice laced with venom.

Van sighed "Perhaps we should go out, and see if the guest that's to be here today is finally here." He says and walks out leaving the rangers a few minutes as JR glances to Hayden.

"Well that was rude." She says with a glare.

"Oh stuff it ice queen." He says.

"Well he was only trying to help. I mean even Kairi had flaws in her fighting style." JR said to him.

Vic sighed getting the feeling another fight might start "Come on please don't We should probably catch up to Van for now." He suggested.

Kairi nods "We don't need him or that guest to see us arguing. For all we know it could be another ranger." She said, and the two decide to stop deciding possibly upsetting a veteran wasn't worth arguing. They then walked out wondering just who this guest was that had come to see them.

What surprised them when they came out they were greeted by a young college age woman was sparring with Van. She was tall standing around 5'5" with a fair skin tone yet slightly athletic build to her. The young woman's brown hair was cut to her shoulders and curly with low cut bangs showing her blue eyes. She wore a loss fitting yellow t-shirt with a black jacket layered over it, blue skinny jeans, white socks, and yellow flats.

The woman smirked as the two stopped their quick little spar "Sorry about that Van. Figured I needed to get a sense of you." She said.

"It's not a problem, and not the first time someone has attacked me as a test." Van replied as JR cleared her throat.

"So who do we have here Van?" She asked him as Hayden rolled his eyes. He honestly didn't care, and after getting beaten by Van so quick he just wanted to go home and relax so he teleport out of H3.

The woman saw this "...So that's your Yellow huh?" She then asked.

Van sighed "Yeah, but right now I think he's nursing some hurt pride." He told her as JR shakes her head.

The woman sighed and takes out her phone "I think I'm going to need some help with this." She says and gets on the phone.

After a few rings someone picked up on the other side "Hi to you to. Look I know your busy, but might need some help here." The woman started as the rangers looked at one another then to Judith.

"Before you ask yes I know who she's calling, and no I can't tell you." Judith said to the group.

The woman continued talking before smiling "Thanks Winchester. Double teaming him might not be the best idea, but I think it's what the new yellow needs." She said, and then laughs.

"Yeah talk to you soon Winchester." She said and hangs up.

Judith sighed "So he's coming this way Ellie?" She asked, and the woman nods.

JR cleared her throat again "Again who is she?" She asked.

Vic nodded in agreement "She is a ranger right?" He asked.

The woman nods "Sorry about not introducing myself earlier. I'm Eleanor Chase, but most just call me Ellie. Mystic Warrior yellow ranger." She introduced herself.

"So why are you here?" Kairi asked her as Ellie sighed glancing to Judith then back to the rest.

"Well Judith has been telling me about you all, and I had actually come here to talk to your yellow about a few things." She told them.

"A yellow to yellow talk right?" Vic asked, and she nods.

"Yeah was suppose to be, but had to bring in a friend. He should be able to hit a few things home to your yellow friend." She tells them and teleport out.

Kairi glanced to the others "Umm...should we really allow her and her friend talk to Hayden? I mean he isn't all that bad." She said.

Judith sighed "Maybe, but he still has a lot to learn. That's why I asked Ellie, and why Ellie probably asked him to help to." She said and then got up.

"You know I could probably use some training to just in case. Let's head back into the training room." Judith then says as Van nods before looking to Neil silently asking if he wanted to join.

Neil shakes his head "I'll keep track of everything in here. Someone needs to be ready in case one of the Hundred Demon's creatures attack." He said, and Van nods before walking in with the rest.

After having left H3 Hayden was walking towards his home, and decided to take a shortcut through the park. Eventually he started going through the wooded area of the park, and as he did so he stopped thinking he heard someone following.

"Nah. Must be imagining things." He thought, and kept walking, but seconds later he was knocked hard to the ground.

Glancing over he saw a college aged guy looking down at him with a frown yet said nothing. He was tall likely over six feet if he had to guess, and had a rather pale skin tone yet it looked like it was glowing in the shade of the tree's yet had a dark noticeable scar on his left eyebrow. He had short cut black hair in a spikecut style and silvery blue eyes that looked to pierce right through Hayden. He wore a light gray top while layered over it was a gray sports jacket with black sleeves, and yellow lining as well as the number 15 stitched small on the left side while it was larger on the back along with the name Winchester above it yet Hayden couldn't see that. Also hidden on the guy's right bicep was a tattoo of a griffin.

"What was that about? You trying to mug me?" Hayden asked as he got up.

"If I wanted to do that I could do so without you knowing." The guy told him, as a few seconds later Ellie showed up.

Ellie looked between the down Hayden and the guy to which she rolled her eyes "I thought you said that you wouldn't get physical." She noted.

"Wrong. I said I wouldn't get violent Ellie. A push isn't exactly violent." The guy replied as Ellie helped Hayden up.

Hayden glanced at the two "Okay I know the girl from the bunker, but never caught a name. Also who are you?" He asked arms crossed.

"Eleanor Chase, but I go by Ellie. Fellow yellow ranger from the Mystic Warriors." She tells him.

"Charles Winchester. I am the gray ranger of the Universe team." He tells him.

"So what's this about? I mean it's obvious since Charles here cornered me that you want to talk." Hayden asked a bit more relaxed.

Ellie nods "As a fellow yellow ranger I can tell you got that same spirit as the rest of us yellows. Yet Judith's been telling me a few things she's observed." She told him and Hayden looked away.

Ellie frowns and forces him to look at her "Hayden what does strength mean to you?" She asked.

"What kind of question is that?" Hayden asked in reply.

Charles rolled his eyes "Don't answer a question with a question kid. Just answer her." He said.

Hayden shrugs "Strength is well that. How strong you are, and how much you can show it. I mean what else could strength be?" Hayden said.

The two veterans listen they're faces not giving away their emotions "Well that's one type of strength. Though the strongest people I know wouldn't fall into that category." Ellie said.

Hayden raised an eyebrow as she talked "My friend Nora the blue ranger and leader of the Universe rangers was so quite and shy, but she also had her own inner darkness. It...consumed her for some time, and even after she conquered her darkness it took a lot for her to heal." She started.

"Okay...what does this have to do with strength?" Hayden asked.

"Because the kind of strength she had was inner strength. She had started to realize what she was doing, and it took that strength to start to fix things." Ellie told him.

Charles nods "It was a tough time when Nora turned. Though everything is a little...fuzzy. Can't exactly recall who lead us at the time." He says and shakes his head.

Hayden nods a bit in understanding "Of course their's more than inner strength. Two of my friends have another kind of strength, and you've actually met one." Ellie said to him.

"Who?" Hayden asked.

"Amy. Her and my other friend Frankie have their own type of strength." Ellie said.

"Yeah. The two of them are like living dragons if you ask me. I mean Frankie had been the victim of cruel pranks, but she still kept going, and took care of her own family." Charles says with a smile, but his eyes showed that their was some worry.

"Amy had to deal with being blackmailed by a girl who thought she deserved to be a ranger. Yet at the same time as she was away she became a stronger person, and came back with a power that...that witch will never take from her." Ellie said gritting her teeth as the thought about that particular person.

Hayden was a bit surprised hearing this "Wow. Yeah the two of them certainly sound comparable to dragons. I've talked to Amy, and seen her fight so I can understand her." He said as was actually curious about Frankie.

"So what's this Frankie like?" He asked.

Ellie smirked "I could tell you, but there's no fun in that. Plus there is someone more qualified to talk about her that you know." She said confusing Hayden a bit.

Charles smirked as well though decided to address something else Judith had mentioned to him during a call "Though I got something I need to ask you about. You and gold girl. You got some history don't you?" He asked.

Hayden flinches "...Yeah. Let's just say things are sour." Hayden told them as he didn't feel like telling them about his past with JR.

Charles sighed "Look. Whatever beef you two got you both have to work it out sometime. Especially now that your teammates, and especially since she's your leader for the moment." He told him.

Hayden crossed his arms "It's not all that easy, and I'm not meaning just with her. I mean I got so embarrassed in training." He said as Charles couldn't help smirking and letting out a small laugh.

"One of the girls show you up right?" He asked and Hayden remained silent.

Ellie chuckles "This looks familiar huh Charles? I mean after all someone showed you up pretty bad." She states and Charles laughs.

"Yeah that she did." He agreed as Hayden looked at him.

"Our yellow ranger is our youngest on our team. We were training one day, and I was paired up with her for a spar. I thought it would be easy, but she beat me. Me! I've fought a lot, but she showed me up." Charles said.

"Your point being?" Hayden asked.

Charles sighed shaking his head a smirk on his face "It also taught me a few things. Look whatever happened you learn from kid. You fall down, you get back up, and you try again. You've got to keep making mistakes to learn from." Charles told him.

Hayden looked down considering this "Guess I haven't been doing that. I've fallen down, and gotten up, but haven't tried again. Instead I walk away or ignore my problem." He said.

"Then stop doing that. Try again, make mistakes, and learn." Ellie said to him as Charles nodded in agreement.

Hayden went silent then after a minute or so rubbed the back of his head "I...I guess I needed this. Thinking on it now yeah I probably did need this." He said

The group started to head back before Hayden recalled something "I actually want to ask you something Charles. If it's okay I mean." He said and Charles nods.

"Sure. What's up?"

Hayden took in a breath "Well you see a while back during one of our first battles...Universe Yellow got involved. At least we thing it is. I mean it was her attack, and there was a female shadow." He started.

Charles raised an eyebrow "Right getting off the point. We're just wondering if you know why Universe Yellow was here in Aibo City?" He asked.

Charles shrugged "Ever since the final battle yellow has become a bit of a wild card like our purple. So I don't know why she'd be in town as well." Charles told him.

"Oh...well thanks anyways. Also thank you both for that talk." Hayden told them.

"No problem. Also you haven't seen her since right?" Charles asked and Hayden nods.

"Then she might be back home in Milky Way. Anyways looking forward to seeing this bunker." Charles said, and the three teleport away.

That's the end of Episode 6 of Xross Force, and instead of one special guest we had two in the forms of Eleanor "Ellie" Chase from Power Rangers Mystic Warriors, and Charles Winchester from Power Rangers Universe. At first I just wanted to bring in Ellie, but figured with Hayden and all that a little extra push would be needed for him. I certainly hope that you all enjoyed this chapter, and now that all the characters have had focus on them...next chapter the time has finally come. Xross Force Red will finally be introduced to the story along with their civilian identity. So now until the next time this has been your friendly fanfiction writer decode9!
