Disclaimer: I don't own Power Rangers, Saban created Power Rangers from adapting Toei's Super Sentai series sixteenth installment, Dinosaur Squadran Zyuranger, then from the end of 2001 through May of 2010, Disney owned them until Saban bought the franchise along with its other sister shows Beetleborgs, VR Troopers, and Masked Rider back from them under his new company, Saban Brands But now, Hasbro had as of May of 2018 had purchase the franchise. I am just borrowing them. The only thing I do own is the characters, plots, and other stuff that don't exist in the show.
Authors Note: Hey everyone, here is a brand-new chapter. Now, I know that I had said that I was going to be putting more focus on finishing writing out and posting the first prequel story to my A New Life series, but I just couldn't stop thinking on this chapter along with next few for this story along with the fact that I got stuck on a few scenes in the writing process so I thought I be better off returning to this one until I can get my ideas straight for it. So, because of that, it'll be next year sometime when I finally post the prequel story. Not sure when at this point as I don't want to jinx myself but rest assured, it'll be next year for sure. Now, to explain a bit about this chapter. The majority of this one is all brand new. New monster and what not, but since I had changed it up from the original where Paul went to high school right away when arriving in Angel Grove rather than starting out in elementary school, I had taking a few scenes from a later chapter and reworked it into this one. Just read the Author's Note at the end of the chapter. Now without further ado here is chapter five for your reading pleasure.
A New Home, The Beginning Of A New Life
Chapter Five: The First Day of High School
This is all still just too weird for me to figure out. Instead of continuing on in second grade here in Angel Grove like I was back home in Michigan, I am now going to be a high school student, as a sophomore none the less.
'And, it well be my first day tomorrow on top of all that, tomorrow in the middle of the week for that matter.' I thought to myself
After having spent the rest of the day at the Youth Center, Kimberly and I had said goodbye to Jason, Trini, Billy, Zack, and Tommy and made our way back home as we entered the house as Kimberly shuts the front door just after we had walked inside.
"Mom, we're home." Kimberly called out
"I'm in the kitchen." Gina called out
Kimberly and I take off our shoes as we make our way into the kitchen as we see her sitting at the kitchen table reading over some papers.
"Mom, Paul has some exciting news to share with you." Kimberly told her
"Let me guess, you just found out that you are going to be in high school starting tomorrow morning?" Gina guessed
Kimberly and I kind of stare at her in shock at the fact she knew what we were going to say.
'How in the hell did she know?' I thought to myself
"Yeah, that's right." Kimberly confirmed
"How, did you know Gina?" I inquired
"The school called me not that long ago." Gina revealed
'Makes sense.' I thought to myself
"Paul, that is real exciting news hun. Congratulations." Gina told me
I just smile at her.
"Thanks Gina." I thanked
Gina then stood up as she walked over towards the fridge and grabbed the pizza menu that was hanging from the side of it.
"I think this call for a little special celebration dinner." Gina mentioned
She then looked over towards me.
"You like pizza, don't you Paul?" Gina inquired
"Yeah, I love it." I told her
She just chuckles at hearing that.
"Then it's settled." Gina mentioned she then walked over towards the phone and opened up the menu and looked in it.
"Is there any kind of pizza you prefer Paul?" Gina questioned
"Well, I would like a ham pizza with extra cheese if it is possible?" I requested
She just smiled at me.
"I think we can manage that." Gina mentioned
"Cool." I stated
Gina then looked over towards Kimberly.
"Is one with just pepperoni okay with you Kimberly?" Gina inquired
"Yeah, that be fine with me mom." Kimberly told her
She just nodded as she looked at the menu.
"All right, so two pizzas and some breadsticks it is then." Gina mentioned
She then picked up the phone and began dialing the number to order up our dinner.
Later that night inside Paul's room
After having ate dinner, and taken a quick trip to the store to get some school supplies for me, we all had gone to bed. Though, granted, at the moment, I can't even fall asleep as I'm a bit nervous about going to high school at the age of eight. So instead, I have decided to grab my Gameboy and hid under my covers with a flashlight over it playing a Mario game. Suddenly, I then see my covers removed as I quickly looked up seeing that it was my Kimberly as I just smile shyly grinning waving my hand nervously.
"Hey sis, how's it going?" I inquired
"Paul, what are you doing up so late?" Kimberly questioned
"Well, I uh…I wanted to catch up on my Mario game." I lied
Kimberly then puts her hands on her hips and gave me that look I have kind of started to recognize all too well in these last few days.
"Nice try Paul." Kimberly stated
I just stare at her.
"Now, how about telling me the truth this time?" Kimberly suggested
'Man, how is it that she can see right through me? Does she have psychic powers or something?' I thought to myself
I look at her for a moment and then realized something about that question.
'On second thought, maybe I don't want to know.' I thought to myself
I just sighed realizing that I won't be able to lie to her about this.
"I guess, I'm just nervous about tomorrow." I admitted
Kimberly just smiled as she then sat down at the edge of the bed and patted the spot next to her motioning for me to come sit next to her. I nodded as I then crawled over towards her and sat up as she then puts her arm around my shoulders.
"Paul, it won't be all that bad." Kimberly assured me
"Yeah right." I muttered
"I'm serious Paul, after a while, it won't be so bad." Kimberly explained to me
"I hope your right Kimberly." I stated
"Paul, it well all be fine. Just know that if you have any trouble, big or small, you can always come to me or one of the others for help." Kimberly assured me
I just smile at her.
"I know, thanks Kimberly." I thanked her
Kimberly than gave me a smile of her own.
"You're welcome Paul, now come here little brother." Kimberly told me as she then pulled me in and gave me a hug
I gladly accept the hug as I then happily returned it with one of my own. A few moments later, we then pulled away from the hug.
"Now why don't you try to get some sleep?" Kimberly suggested
"Can't I just stay up a little longer and play some more of Mario?" I inquired
She just gives me the look she gave me earlier.
"Paul." Kimberly stated
I just sighed knowing that there is no point in me trying to convince her otherwise.
"Okay fine I well go to bed. Man, sometimes your worse than your mother sometimes." I mentioned
"Just get in bed you little stinker." Kimberly stated with a laugh as she playfully slaps my arm
I then moved over to the pillows and lay down as Kimberly then pulled the covers over me.
"Night Paul." Kimberly told me then gave me a kiss on the forehead
"Night Kimberly." I told her
Kimberly then walked over towards the door and turned out the lights and closes the door behind her. I then shut my eyes as I then try to get some sleep.
Meanwhile the next morning inside Angel Grove High
The next morning after having gotten up and dressed, Kimberly and I had left for school. My first day of high school at that. Once there, we had gone straight to the office as to get my class schedule. When I had gotten it, I come to find out that all of my classes are with Kimberly and in some of them in the same classes as Tommy, Trini, Jason, Billy, and Zack.
'Kind of strange, but yet grateful for that it would be a bit easier for me to get through them.' I thought to myself
After having left the office, we had gone into the main hallway to look for my locker which had me just taken in the surroundings.
'Wow I never thought I be in high school at this point in my life.' I thought to myself
Suddenly, I then feel a hand on my shoulder as I quickly turned around to see that it was Kimberly.
"Earth to Paul, you in there?" Kimberly inquired
"Yeah, sorry Kimberly, I guess I spaced off for a minute there I guess." I admitted to her
"You sure you're okay Paul?" Kimberly wondered
I just looked at her confused.
"Yeah, why wouldn't I be?" I inquired
"Well, you were up for a good portion of the night last night playing your video game." Kimberly pointed out
I just chuckle at hearing that.
"No worries Kimberly, I'm fine. I was just taking in all of this." I told her
Kimberly just nodded in understanding as we then stop in front of locker 808B.
"Well, here is your locker, 808B." Kimberly informed me
I just looked at it to see that it was top locker as I then reached my hand up to see that I was able to at least reach the knob.
"Well, at least I can reach it." I muttered
Kimberly then hands me the piece of paper with the combination on it as I look at it and follow it. A few moments later, after the first attempt, I was able to get it to open. I then happen to look over towards where Kimberly was standing to see that she was opening up the top locker next to mine.
"Wait, your locker is next to mine?" I inquired
"Yeah, I think my mom had ask if there was a locker available close to mine to ensure that we were close by one another." Kimberly explained
"I guess that makes sense." I stated as I put the stuff I didn't need in my locker before shutting it
Kimberly then shuts her locker as well.
"Come on, we need to get to our first class before we are late." Kimberly stated
I sighed as we then walked towards our first class.
"Okay but, I still think I am not really sure about all this." I admitted
Kimberly then puts her hand around my shoulder.
"Don't worry Paul, you are ready for this and myself and the others will be there for you every step of the way." Kimberly assured me
I just smiled at hearing that.
"Thanks Kimberly." I thanked
"Don't mention it Paul." Kimberly assured me
Kimberly and I then walked away from the lockers as we head down the hallway towards our first class of the day.
Normal POV
As Kimberly and Paul walk off towards their first class, Bulk and Skull walked into the same hallway talking with one another as Bulk then suddenly spots Kimberly with Paul as he just stares at her in confusion and holds his hand out in front of Skull stopping him.
"Hey Skull, check that out." Bulk told Skull
Skull looked over towards where Bulk was pointing towards to also see Kimberly walking along the halls with Paul as he too now gets a confused look on his face.
"It's Kimberly walking around with a little kid." Skull stated
Skull turned back towards Bulk.
"I don't get it Bulkie, what would a little kid be doing here in high school? And why would he be walking around with Kimberly at that?" Skull questioned
"It would appear that we have an egghead in our school and Kimberly is task with showing him around." Bulk pointed out
Bulk then smirked.
"Let's go have some fun." Bulk mentioned
Skull smirked as he nodded as well as the two of them then walk off to catch up with Kimberly and Paul.
Paul's POV
"Well, well, well. What do we have here?" A voice wondered
Both Kimberly and I turned around towards the voice to see that it was two other teenage students who appear to be dressed as punks. One is a pretty big guy and the other was a skinny one.
"Great, it's Bulk and Skull." Kimberly muttered
I just looked at her confused.
'Bulk? Skull? What kind of names are those?' I thought to myself
"Bulk, Skull, this Paul Golupski, not only is he a new student here in the high school, but he is now my new adopted brother." Kimberly informed them
Bulk and Skull looked at each other confused before turning back towards us.
"I think twice with your next words Bulk." A voice called out
Bulk and Skull along with Kimberly and I turned towards the voice to see that it was Jason along with Tommy, Zack, Billy, and Trini.
"That's right, just know that if you plan on to pick on Paul due to his age and intelligence that you will have to deal with us." Tommy added
Bulk and Skull looked at each other before turning back towards the others with nervous looks on their faces.
"No problem, it be a waste of our valuable time anyway." Bulk mentioned
"Yeah, we have better things to do with our valuable time." Skull added
"Like what exactly?" Trini inquired
"Well…We…um…well." Skull stumbled on trying to find the right words
"We, have Power Rangers to find." Bulk quickly stated
"Yeah, that's it. We are too busy in trying to find out who the Power Rangers are." Skull quickly agreed
The others just nodded their heads as I kind of look at them confused.
"On that note, we'll see you all in class." Bulk stated
Bulk then turned towards Skull.
"Come on Skull, let's not be late to Ms. Appleby's class." Bulk mentioned
"Right behind you Bulkie." Skull told him
The two then walked past us as they walked over towards the open door a few feet away as I just point in their direction.
"Okay, so I could tell that they are the look punks/bullies of the school, but what was that all about just now?" I questioned
"It's a long story bud." Jason mentioned
Zack then placed a hand on my shoulder.
"Yeah, one best talked about at another time." Zack added
I just nodded in understanding.
"Come on, we better follow them to class or we're going to be late." Tommy stated
"Yeah, I agree." Billy agreed
"And besides, you don't want to be late on your first day of high school Paul." Trini mentioned
I just sighed.
"Yeah, I know." I muttered
"Paul, I've told you before, and I'll say it again. It won't be that bad." Kimberly stated
She then puts her hands on my shoulders.
"Now, let's go." Kimberly stated
I just nodded as we all walked into the same classroom that Bulk and Skull had walked into earlier.
Meanwhile inside Lord Zedd's Palace
Lord Zedd just stared down at the Earth with his enhance vision spying on the Rangers while they are in school.
"So, the little Gold Ranger is beginning is first day of high school." Lord Zedd mentioned
Lord Zedd then stopped spying on the Rangers as he then turned around and faced Goldar who is now sporting an eye patched that is covering the spot where his right eye was slashed out in his previous battle with Paul.
"Goldar, you have any ideas for a new monster to take on the Power Rangers?" Lord Zedd inquired as he walked down the steps from the balcony to approach him
"How about a monster that can turn the Rangers and everyone on Earth into stone?" Goldar suggested
Lord Zedd just tapped his chin in thought.
"Hmm, not a bad idea Goldar." Lord Zedd mentioned
Lord Zedd then turned around and walked back up the steps towards the balcony.
"In fact, it's a brilliant idea. I'm so glad I had thought of it." Lord Zedd stated
Goldar just stared at him in shock as his master took credit for his idea, but decided that he be better off not correcting him.
"Soon, those Rangers will not know what hit them." Lord Zedd mentioned
Lord Zedd then gripped the balcony railing.
"The world shall be at my control." Lord Zedd added
Meanwhile several hours later back inside Angel Grove High School
Several hours has come and gone as the final bell of the day had rung through out the school singling the end of the day as Trini, Billy, Tommy, Kimberly, and I had walked out of our last class of the day as we had walked over towards Trini's locker as she puts some of her stuff away.
"Man, am I ever glad that school is over with for the day" I mentioned
"Come on Paul, it wasn't all bad." Kimberly reminded
"So, you call getting homework from here to the moon not bad?" I questioned
She just stared at me.
"Then you really need a reality check sis." I stated with a light chuckle
Trini then shuts her locker and turned towards me.
"Paul, you worry too much, you well get use to it." Trini told me
"Yeah, when pigs grow wings and flies." I muttered
"I get that this is all new to you Paul, and it is happening a lot faster than you want it too. But, in time, all of this will become easier to bare and become second nature to you." Billy explained to me
Kimberly then puts her arm around my shoulders.
"And, we'll all be there to help you every step of the way." Kimberly reminded me
"Yeah, she rights bud. You can always come to us if you are having a problem, whether it's a school related problem or something else." Tommy added
"Thanks guys." I thanked
"Come on, let's go and find Jason and Zack and go to the Youth Center. maybe one of Ernie's smoothie will cheer you up." Kimberly suggested
"Sure." I muttered
We all then walked off to find Jason and Zack.
Meanwhile a bit later back inside Lord Zedd's Palace
Lord Zedd had continued to spy on the Rangers with his enhance vision as he then sees all seven of them walking through Angel Grove Park.
"Excellent, all seven of them are in the park." Lord Zedd mentioned
Lord Zedd then stop spying on the Rangers and turned around to face Goldar.
"The time has come to begin my latest plan." Lord Zedd stated
"Yes sire, the Putties are waiting and willing on your signal." Goldar informed him
Lord Zedd just nodded as he then looked at the group of Putties standing several feet behind Goldar.
"Putties, go down there and do battle with the Rangers." Lord Zedd ordered
Meanwhile in Angel Grove Park
After having met up with Jason and Zack, we all had left the high school and head to the Youth Center cutting through the park. As everyone else was talking, I had just remained quiet with my hands holding the straps of my bag. Not only thinking about my first day of high school, but also on something else.
'I don't know what it is, but I feel like something bad is about to happen.' I thought to myself
I suddenly feel a hand on my shoulder as I turned around to see that it was Kimberly.
"You okay Paul?" Kimberly inquired
"Yeah bud, you kind of zoned out on us there." Zack added
"Yeah, just something on my mind is all." I mentioned
"Paul, for the hundredth time, don't worry too much you well do fine being in high school." Kimberly reminded me
"That's not what really has me so deep in thought Kimberly." I informed her
"Then what are you talking about?" Kimberly questioned
I just sighed knowing that I she won't let it go until I say it.
"Well, I have been having this strange feeling all day is all." I revealed
"About what?" Trini wondered
"Well, it's been really quiet all day. I just have this strange feeling that Zedd is going to send down the Putties to attack us." I mentioned
All of a sudden, we then see several Putties appear surrounding us.
"Man, I hate it when I'm right." I muttered
We all then get into our fighting stances.
"Remember guys, aim directing for the 'Z' on their chests." Jason instructed
We all nodded as we all spread out and began fighting off the Putties. I quickly duck under a punch from a Putty before standing back up straight and sending a punch to its chest causing it to go falling backwards to the ground. I quickly turned towards my left to see two Putties coming at me one behind the other as I then stretch out my right leg kicking the first Putty in the chest causing it to stagger and crash into the Putty behind it causing the both of them to go falling to the ground.
"And stay down." I mentioned
Suddenly, I then see about several more Putties surround me.
"This just got a bit more tougher." I muttered
Suddenly a Putty from behind me kicks my back causing me to go crashing to the ground face first.
"I make that a lot more tougher." I corrected myself
Kimberly's POV
I did a backflip over a couple of Putties before doing a few jump kicks kicking them all to the ground. I quickly turned towards where Paul was to see that was being surrounded by several Putties all at once and that he was laying on the ground.
'Oh no.' I thought to myself
I go to rush over to Paul to help him, but I quickly find myself surrounded by a few more Putties.
"Guys, Paul needs help, but, I can't get to him." I called out
Normal POV
After doing a spinning kick to send a Putty flying to the ground, Jason had quickly turned towards where Paul was and saw the same thing Kimberly did.
"Hang on buddy. I'm coming." Jason called out to Paul
Jason then rushed over towards Paul to help him.
Paul's POV
I tried to stand back up, but a single Putty places his foot on my back pushing me back to the ground. I struggle to try and push it off, but his foot won't budge.
"Get off of me you clay freak." I demanded
Suddenly, I then feel the weight pressed on my back lifted as I looked up to see that the Putty that was pressing its foot on my back along with a few more around me were sent flying to the ground. I looked over to see that it was Jason who quickly reached his arm out towards me.
"You okay bud?" Jason inquired
I accept the gestured by taking his stretched out hand as Jason then helped me stand back up.
"Yeah, thanks Jase." I thanked him
"Don't mention it bud." Jason assured me
Jason and I then looked at the remaining Putties around us as Jason then got into his fighting stance.
"Now, let's take these freaks together." Jason stated
I nodded as I get back into a fighting stance myself.
"Right." I stated
Jason and I then charge in and began fighting the Putties together.
Normal POV
Tommy, does a few spinning kicks kicking each of them in the chest one at a time. Once all were down, he then sees another Putty coming his way as he then did a spinning tornado kick kicking it right in the 'Z' on its chest as it falls to the ground as it began glowing white before shattering into a million pieces. Over with Trini, she kicked the Putty on her right on the 'Z' sending it crashing to the ground before taking a few steps back as she stopped behind a few Putties. The two Putties try to punch her in the chest but she quickly blocks their attacks with both of her arms before grabbing onto them from underneath and twisted them sending them flying to the ground. She then saw another Putty come her way as she then spun around in the air and tried to kick the Putty, but it manages to duck under it. The Putty then goes to punch her, but she quickly blocks it with one arm before punching it with her other arm directly in the 'Z' as it then began glowing before shattering into a million pieces. She then got back into a fighting stance as she then faced the other Putties around her. Over with Billy, he is taking on a few Putties as he blocks an attack from one of them as he then moved its arms away before sending several punches to its chest directly in the 'Z' sending it crashing to the ground before it began glowing white and then shattering into a million pieces.
Kimberly's POV
I see two Putties coming at me as I quickly do the splits to duck under them as the two Putties missed me, but end up kicking one another in other's faces sending them both to the ground. I quickly get back up as I then saw two more Putties come at me as I then jump up and spread out my legs to either side, kicking the both of them in their chests sending them both crashing to the ground as well.
Normal POV
Over with Zack, he does a dance move as before quickly doing a side kick taking down a Putty before turning around and then jumped into the air spinning around to dodge another Putty before sending a punch into another Putty's chest. He then ducks under a Putty's punch before stopping in between two Putties before sending a punch int the chest of the Putty in front of him before sending his elbow back into the chest of the Putty behind him sending them both to the ground. Another Putty comes towards him as he quickly sends a kick at it, but the Putty catches it before lifting Zack's leg up causing him to go into the air as Zack quickly catches himself as he does a backflip over a Putty that was on all fours trying to stand up. Once Zack landed, he noticed that the Putty that had sent him into the air ends up falling from the ground having been caught off guard by Zack's recover move.
Paul's POV
I manage to block a punch from a Putty as I then shove it up and spun around and elbowed the Putty in the chest sending it to the ground. I then see another Putty come at me.
"Paul, duck." Jason called out
I quickly do so as I then see Jason come flying over me with his right leg stretched out as he kicked the Putty in the chest sending it crashing to the ground. I then stood back up.
"Thanks again Jase." I thanked
"Don't mention it bro." Jason assured me
Meanwhile back inside Lord Zedds Palace
Lord Zedd used his enhance vision to spy on the Rangers fighting off the Putties.
"Prefect, now for stage two of my plan." Lord Zedd mentioned
Lord Zedd then stopped watching the fight as he then twirled his staff around in his hands.
"Now, to bring forth my latest creation." Lord Zedd stated
Lord Zedd then aimed his staff towards Earth.
"Arise Rockzilla." Lord Zedd called out
Meanwhile back at Angel Grove Park
As I punch another Putty in its chest causing it to go crashing tot the ground, I happen to see a bolt of lightning strike some nearby rocks as they suddenly transform into a Godzilla like creature made entirely out of rocks.
"Greetings Power Rangers, I'm Rockzilla. And, I am about to rock your world." Rockzilla greeted
The others quickly rushed over towards me and Jason.
"Man, a Godzilla like monster made out of rocks." Zack mentioned
"I guess Zedd has a creative side when making these monsters." I stated
"Let's break down this rocky Godzilla." Jason told us
We all just nodded in agreement as all seven of us then brought out our Power Morphers.
"IT'S MORPHIN TIME!" Jason yelled out
"GORILLAZORD!" I yelled out.
"DRAGONZORD!" Tommy yelled out.
"MASTODON!" Zack yelled out.
"PTERODACTYL!" Kimberly yelled out.
"TRICERATOPS!" Billy yelled out.
"SABER-TOOTHED TIGER!" Trini yelled out.
"TYRANNOSAURUS!" Jason yelled out.
Suddenly, we all transformed into our Ranger forms.
"Gorilla, Gold Ranger." I called out getting into my fighting stance
"Dragon, Green Ranger." Tommy called out getting into his fighting stance
"Mastodon, Black Ranger." Zack called out getting into his fighting stance
"Pterodactyl, Pink Ranger." Kimberly called out getting into her fighting stance
"Triceratops, Blue Ranger." Billy called out getting into his fighting stance
"Saber-Toothed Tiger, Yellow Ranger." Trini called out getting into her fighting stance
"Tyrannosaurus, Red Ranger." Jason called out getting into his fighting stance
"Power Rangers." We all called out
Rockzilla then aimed his hands towards us.
"Take this Rangers." Rockzilla stated
Suddenly, laser beams shaped like rocks shoot out from his hands heading straight for us.
"Lookout." Jason called out
Jason, Trini, Billy, Kimberly, and I quickly got out of the way but Tommy and Zack weren't so lucky as they were struck by the lasers. Suddenly, they both were turned to solid stone statues.
"Oh no, Tommy, Zack." Trini called out
"Billy, what happen to them?" Kimberly questioned
"It would appear that his laser blasts are capable of turning people into stone statues." Billy theorized
"Great, our problems just got worse." Jason stated
I then pulled out Xavier.
"Come on guys, let's take down this rock freak." I mentioned
I then charge in towards Rockzilla.
"Paul, wait." Kimberly called out
"Come back." Jason called out
I didn't listen to them as I jump up into the air and raised Xavier up as I then swing it downwards towards him but Rockzilla easily blocks the blade with his right hand.
"Nice try Gold Ranger, but you'll have to do better than that to defeat me." Rockzilla stated
Rockzilla then used his other hand and punched me in the gut causing me to double over as he then kicked me in the shoulder causing me to crash to the ground.
"Time for you to be the third Ranger to be turned into a stone statue." Rockzilla stated
Rockzilla then aimed his hands right at me.
"Paul, hang on." Kimberly called out
Rockzilla then fired his rock shape laser beams at me, but before they could strike me, I see Jason and Kimberly quickly stepping in front of me taking the hit that was meant for me as the both of them are suddenly turned to stone statues like Zack and Tommy.
"NOOO!" I yelled out
I stood up as I looked at the two of them.
"Jason, Kimberly." I called out
Trini and Billy quickly rushed over towards me.
"Oh no, they have been turned into stone statues as well." Billy stated
"And you three are next Blue Ranger." Rockzilla mentioned
"You're going to pay for this, you bolder freak." I told him
I go to rush in to take him on once more, but both Billy and Trini held me back.
"Paul, no it's too dangerous." Trini pointed out
"Yeah, we need to get the others back to the Command Center and regroup." Billy mentioned
"You won't get far Rangers." Rockzilla stated
Rockzilla quickly charges in towards us as Billy quickly reaches for his Communicator.
"Alpha, the others were turned into stone statues, we need to get out of here now." Billy said into the Communicator
"Teleportation commencing now Rangers." Alpha said through the Communicator
Suddenly, Trini, Billy, and I along with Kimberly, Jason, Tommy, and Zack who were turned to stone statues were all teleported out of the park.
Normal POV
Rockzilla stopped in his tracks after seeing the Rangers teleported away.
"That's right, run away. It is only a matter of time until all of you are turned into stones. Hahahahahaha!" Rockzilla declared laughing evilly
Meanwhile back inside Lord Zedd's Palace
Lord Zedd just stares down at the Earth from the balcony having seen the entire thing unfold as Goldar just stood behind him on.
"Ah excellent, four of the seven Rangers have been turned to stone statues. It's only a matter of time until the remaining three are turned to statues as well." Lord Zedd mentioned
Goldar just quietly growl at the fact that he wouldn't get the chance to get his revenge on Paul for his slashed-out eye but knew better then to say anything to his master about that matter.
"And then, the world shall be mine to command." Lord Zedd declared
Meanwhile inside the Command Center
After having returned to the Command Center, Billy, Trini, and I had taken our helmets off to which also caused me to return to my normal height. Billy and Alpha are running scans over the others who were turned to stone statues to try and find a way to turn them back to normal.
"Have you guys found anything yet Billy?" Trini inquired
"No nothing yet." Billy admitted
"This is my fault." I muttered
Trini along with Billy and Alpha turned towards me.
"If I hadn't rushed in like I did, Jason and Kimberly wouldn't have been turned into stone statues like Zack and Tommy were." I explained
"You don't know that for sure Paul." Billy stated
"Billy's right Paul." Trini agreed
"No, I let my inexperience and anger cloud my judgement out there." I stated
I then motioned over towards Jason, Kimberly, Tommy, and Zack who were still stone statues.
"And because of that, they're now stone statues." I added
Trini just gave me a warm smile as she walked over towards me and placed a hand on my shoulder.
"Paul, Billy and I don't blame you for what happen out there." Trini assured me
I just looked away from her.
"And, I know that Kimberly and Jason don't blame you either." Trini added
"Paul, every Ranger has the same feelings and fears as you are feeling right now." Zordon told me
I then turned towards him as does Alpha, Billy, and Trini.
"Your father also had these feelings himself when he first became a Power Ranger." Zordon revealed
I just looked at him in shocked.
"He did?" I questioned
"Yes, but with time and experience, he became one the greatest Power Rangers ever. And, I know that in time, you will too." Zordon stated
"Zordon's right, and, you're never alone in this either Paul." Trini assured me
"Trini's right bud, we'll always be there for you whenever you need help." Billy added
I just smiled at them.
"Thanks guys." I thanked
"Rangers, I discovered something." Alpha called out
We all turned towards Alpha.
"Did you find a way to turn them back to normal Alpha?" Trini inquired
"Not exactly, but scans indicate that if we don't find a way to turn them back to normal before destroying Rockzilla, they will remain in stone form forever." Alpha explained
"Damn, it." I muttered
"That's defiantly going to make things more complicated." Billy mentioned
"Billy, can you think of anything that you may have that might safely turn the others back to normal?" Trini inquired
Billy sighed and crossed his arms over his chest as he begins thinking about it.
'Wait a minute, it might be a crazy idea, but it might work.' I thought to myself
I then turned towards Trini, Billy, and Alpha.
"Guys, I may have an idea." I stated
The three of them then turned towards me.
"What is it Paul?" Alpha questioned
"Now, this may be a crazy idea, but it really is the only thing I can think of that could free the others." I informed them
"Paul, we're always willing to hear suggestions from you sweetie." Trini assured me
"Yeah, Trini's right bud. Whatever it is, you can share it with us." Billy added
"Well, what if we were to surround them with water?" I suggested
Billy and Trini just stare at me in shock.
"I mean, if memory serves me right, next to oxygen, water can easily break down rocks." I added
"Paul's right. I mean, as crazy as it sounds, it could be the answer we are looking for." Billy mentioned
"I agree with Paul's suggestion as well." Zordon agreed
I then turned towards Alpha.
"Alpha, is it possible that we can place them into tubes and fill it with water to begin the break down process?" I inquired
"Yes Paul, I'll get started on that right away." Alpha stated
Alpha then walked over towards the main console and begin pushing some buttons as I then turned back towards Billy and Trini.
"In the meantime, I think we should come up with a plan in dealing with Rockzilla." I mentioned
"I agree." Billy agreed
"You got any ideas Paul?" Trini inquired
I cross my arms over my chest and begin thinking on it. Suddenly, an idea pops into my head.
"What about creating a weapon that can shoot out water at a high velocity rate?" I suggested
"Yeah, that actually could work." Billy stated
"Is it possible to create something like that in a short amount of time Billy?" Trini inquired
"In theory yes." Billy admitted
Suddenly, the alarms begin going off.
"Oh man, not good." I stated
"What's happening Zordon?" Trini inquired
"Rockzilla has appeared at the Angel Grove Quarry. Behold the Viewing Globe." Zordon told us
The three of us turned towards the Viewing Globe as an image of Rockzilla eating pieces of rock then appears.
"Okay, you don't really see that one everyday." I stated
"Why is he eating rocks?" Trini questioned
"That might be how he gets his energy for his attacks." Billy suggested
"Which makes sense, a rock like monster eating rocks." I agreed
"Rangers, you must stop Rockzilla before he can regain full power and start turning innocent people into stone statues." Zordon explained
"Okay, Billy, why don't you stay here and build that device as well as help Alpha in freeing the others. Paul and I will go and distract Rockzilla until you and the others can get there." Trini told him
Billy just nodded in agreement.
"Affirmative." Billy confirmed
Trini looked at me as I nodded in agreement as the two of us then grab our helmets.
"Good luck Rangers, and may the power protect you." Zordon told us
"BACK TO ACTION!" Trini yelled out
Meanwhile in Angel Grove Quarry
Once we had remorphed, Trini and I teleported down to the Angel Grove Quarry as we landed in front of Rockzilla who was eating a medium size rock in one hand while holding a pile in another.
"Gorilla, Gold Ranger." I called out getting into a fighting stance
"Saber-Tooth Tiger, Yellow Ranger." Trini called out getting into a fighting stance
"Power Rangers." Trini and I called out
"Ah, two of the three remaining Rangers decided to come back out." Rockzilla stated
"You're going to pay for what you did to my sister and our friends Rockzilla." I told him
"That's right." Trini agreed
Rockzilla ate the rest of the rock in his right hand as he just tossed aside the other rocks as he then transformed his right hand into a blade.
"We'll see about that Rangers." Rockzilla stated
I then pulled out Xavier as Trini brought out her Power Daggers.
"Paul, just remember to keep your head clear and not rush in. We need to work together on this one." Trini reminded me
"Got it Trini." I confirmed
Rockzilla then charge in towards Trini and I as the two of us begin charging in as well. Rockzilla then raised his arm blade up in the air and quickly brings it back down towards us as Trini and I used our weapons to block his attack as we then push forward to try and get him off balance as he tries to hold his ground against our assault.
"Not bad Rangers. Not bad at all." Rockzilla commented
Rockzilla then manage to push us off of him as he then spun around and stretched out his blade arm and slashed us in our chests sending us crashing to the ground.
"But, without the rest of your team here, you will never defeat me." Rockzilla stated
"Paul, are you okay?" Trini inquired as she helped me up
"Yeah, I'm fine." I assured her
I then looked back towards Rockzilla as he just stands there staring at us.
"Let's just hope that Alpha and Billy can free the others in time." I mentioned
"Yeah, I agree." Trini agreed
Meanwhile back inside the Command Center
While Billy was creating a device that could shoot out water at a high velocity, Alpha was finishing up the set up to help free Jason, Kimberly, Zack, and Tommy from their stone like state as he then turned towards Billy.
"Billy, everything is ready on my end but, I need your help with the final calculations." Alpha mentioned
Billy nodded as he put down device he had and walked over towards Alpha as he then began pushing a few buttons.
"Placing the others in tubes now." Billy confirmed
Billy turned towards the other Rangers as tubes materialized over them with water tubes connection around each chamber. Billy then turned back towards Alpha.
"Okay Alpha, begin filling the chamber tubes with water." Billy instructed
"Right Billy." Alpha stated as he pushed a few buttons
Suddenly, the chambers begin filling up with water.
"It will take several minutes for the chambers to fill up with water." Zordon reported
Billy and Alpha turned back towards Zordon.
"Billy, I suggest that while we wait for the chambers to fill up, that you and Alpha get back to finishing up the device." Zordon instructed
"Right Zordon." Billy agreed
Billy pats Alpha on the shoulder as the two of them then get back to working on the device.
Meanwhile back in Angel Grove Quarry
I go to attack Rockzilla again as I raised Xavier up before bringing it back down, but Rockzilla quickly blocks my attack with his blade arm before using his other arm and punching me in the chest sending me crashing to the ground. Trini quickly goes on the attack herself, but before she could reach him, he then fired out several small rock blasts at her causing her to go flying to the ground as well as I quickly get up and head over towards her.
"Trini, you okay?" I questioned as I helped her up
"Yeah, I'll be fine." Trini assured me
We just stare at Rockzilla as he just laughed evilly and marched slowly over towards us.
"I don't know how much longer I can hold on Trini." I admitted
"Don't give up Paul. The others will be here soon. I'm sure of it." Trini told me
'I hope she is right.' I thought to myself
Meanwhile back inside the Command Center
As Billy finishes up assembling the device which appears to look like a bigger version of a squirt gun, Alpha monitors the chambers to see that the Rangers still in stone statue form are now fully under water.
"Billy, the Rangers are now fully submerged in water." Alpha informed him
After putting on the final piece, Billy walked over towards Alpha.
"Alright, in order for this to work, we're going to need to turn on the jets at a high velocity rate." Billy informed Alpha
"Right Billy." Alpha stated as he began pushing some buttons
"You two best hurry. Paul and Trini may not last much longer against Rockzilla." Zordon informed them
Billy sighed and nodded as he turned towards Alpha.
"Everything set Alpha?" Billy inquired
"Ready on your command Billy." Alpha confirmed
"Activate the jets." Billy instructed
"Activating now." Alpha confirmed pushing a green button on the console
The both of them then turned back towards the chambers as the jets then suddenly activated causing the water to bubble up inside the chambers.
"How long do you think it will take Alpha?" Billy inquired
"Hopefully, it doesn't take too long." Alpha explained
Several moments later, the stone statues of the Rangers slowly begin glowing their Ranger colors.
"Hey, I think its working." Billy pointed out
"Alpha, quick begin draining the chambers." Zordon instructed
"Right Zordon." Alpha stated
Alpha then turned back towards the main console and began pushing a few buttons. Suddenly, the as the water begins slowly draining from the chambers, the statues begin glowing brighter as the stone rock coverings begin cracking. A few more moments later, all the water drains completely out as the stone rock coverings completely breaks off freeing the others.
"Hooray, it worked." Alpha cheered
Billy smiled as he quickly turned back towards the console as he began getting rid of the chambers.
Kimberly's POV
I looked around confused as I find myself inside a tube of some kind.
'What in the hell is going on?' I thought to myself
Suddenly, the tube then disappears as I looked around as I see that Jason, Zack, and Tommy were also looking around confused as well.
"Man, what happen to us?" Zack questioned
"Last thing I remember was getting ready to fight Rockzilla and then getting hit by the laser beam." Tommy mentioned
I then looked over and see Billy and Alpha standing near the main console.
"Billy, what's going on?" I questioned
"You guys were turned to stone statues by Rockzilla, but, we were able reverse the affect on you guys by placing you in those chambers and filling it with water and turning the jets on at full blast to safely break down the stone coating around your bodies." Billy explained
"That was some quick thinking Billy, thanks bro." Jason thanked
"Actually, you should be thanking Paul. He was the one that had came up with the idea to use water to break the stone coating." Billy pointed out
I quickly looked around and suddenly realize that neither Paul nor Trini are here.
"Where's Paul and Trini?" I questioned
"There currently battling Rockzilla as we speak." Zordon informed us
I then see Billy walked over to what appears to be an oversized squirt gun and pick it up.
"And, this is how we are going to take down Rockzilla." Billy told us holding it up in front of him
"With an oversized squirt gun?" Zack questioned
"This squirt gun based on Paul's suggestion can shoot out water at a high velocity rate. To which in theory should weaken Rockzilla." Billy explained
"Has it been tested yet Billy?" I questioned
"No, I only just finished putting it together." Billy admitted
"Unfortunately, there is no time to do a proper testing on it. You all must get down to the Angel Grove Quarry and help Paul and Trini take down Rockzilla." Zordon revealed
"Zordon's right, we need to go now and help Paul and Trini." Jason agreed
"Then, let's get moving." Tommy stated
"Right." I agreed
"Tommy, be advice that due to being turned into a stone statue earlier, your powers could have weakened, just be mindful and be careful." Zordon cautioned him
Tommy nodded.
"Understood Zordon." Tommy stated
"Go now Rangers, and may the power protect you all." Zordon told us
Billy then grabs his helmet as he holds both it and the high-powered squirt gun.
"BACK TO ACTION!" Jason yelled out
Meanwhile back in Angel Grove Quarry
Paul's POV
Rockzilla stopped his advanced towards us as he then transformed his blade arm back to a regular hang as he then aims both hands towards us.
"Now, you two will become stone statues just like the other four Rangers." Rockzilla stated
Before Rockzilla could even fire a single blast at us, we suddenly then see Jason and Tommy kick Rockzilla in the chest sending him flying to the ground as the two of them along with Billy, Kimberly, and Zack land in front of us getting into their fighting stances.
"Your ran of terror ends here Rockzilla." Jason stated
Rockzilla quickly stands up and just stares at the others in complete shock.
"No, this can't be." Rockzilla complained
"Guys, are we ever glad to see you." Trini told them
"No worries, we're just glad to no longer be stone statues." Zack mentioned
"That's for sure." Kimberly agreed
I happen to look over towards Billy to see that he is holding what appears to be an oversized squirt gun.
"Billy, is that the device?" I questioned
"Yes, Alpha and I were able to finish it." Billy told me
Billy then holds it out towards me.
"Since it was your idea, you have the honors of using it Paul." Billy informed me
I then placed Xavier back in its holster as I then take the device from him and looked it over a bit.
"You think it'll work Billy?" I inquired
"There's only one way to find out." Billy stated
I just nodded as I then looked back over towards Rockzilla.
"What says you little boy gold? You think a little water is going to defeat me?" Rockzilla questioned
Rockzilla then turned both of his hands into blades as he then charges in towards us.
"Here goes nothing." I stated
I then aim the squirt gun towards him and pushed and hold down the trigger as it then fires out some water a very fast high velocity rate. The water then strikes Rockzilla straight on forcing him to stop in his tracks as he struggles to stay standing.
"Hey, it looks like its working." I pointed out
"Jason, I think we better assemble the Power Blaster to finish off Rockzilla." Billy suggested
"Yeah, good thinking Billy." Jason commented
I then turned towards the others.
"You guys better hurry with that. I am not sure how much longer I'll be able to hold him back with this." I told them
Jason, Trini, Billy, Kimberly, and Zack nodded as Jason, Billy, Kimberly, and Zack bring out their Power Weapons.
"Okay Power Rangers, let's bring them together." Jason instructed
"Right." Trini, Billy, Kimberly, and Zack agreed
Jason, Trini, Billy, Kimberly, and Zack then bring their Power Weapons into the air and make them touch each other.
"Power Axe." Zack called out changing the Axe from Axe mode to Cannon Mode.
Then Zack threw the axe into the sky.
"Power Bow." Kimberly called out
Kimberly then threw the bow in to the sky where it combined with the Power Axe.
"Power Daggers." Trini called out
Then Trini threw the daggers in to the sky where they combined with the Power Bow and both daggers landed on each side of the Power Axe.
"Power Lance." Billy called out
Then Billy threw both pieces of the lance into the sky and combined with the Power bow and landed between the Power Daggers and Power Axe on each side.
"Power Sword." Jason called out
Jason then jumped up and placed the Sword on top of the Power Axe and brought it back down to earth. Then the other rangers came and held on to Jason or the Power Blaster with Billy and I standing to his right and Zack and Trini standing to his left.
"POWER RANGERS!" Jason, Trini, Billy, Kimberly, and Zack yelled at the same time
I then stopped firing the device at Rockzilla as I pull out Xavier with my right hand.
"Okay, let's do this." I mentioned
I then swung Xavier around in front of me before pointing its head towards Rockzilla as Tommy then brought out his Dragon Dagger and pointed it right at him.
"Uh oh." Rockzilla muttered
"FIRE!" We all shouted out
Suddenly, our weapons fired off as the energies combine into one giant rainbow like energy ball as it then strikes Rockzilla straight on, sending him crashing back to the ground.
Meanwhile back inside Lord Zedd's Palace
Lord Zedd had witness the entire battle unfold as he just stares down at the Earth.
"Rockzilla isn't down for the count yet Rangers." Lord Zedd stated
He then moved his staff to his left hand as he then raised his right hand into the air as he then produces his growth bomb.
"Grow Rockzilla, grow." Lord Zedd called out as he then tossed the growth bomb down towards the Earth.
Meanwhile back in Angel Grove Quarry
Suddenly, we then see Lord Zedd's Growth Bomb as Rockzilla then grabs it.
"Oh man, looks like we are about to have an even bigger problem guys." I mentioned
"Oh, time to have some fun." Rockzilla mentioned
Rockzilla then removes the smaller ball from the main one as he then threw it down in front of him as it exploded which caused him to grow thirty stories tall.
"Looks like it isn't over yet guys." Tommy stated
"All right Rangers, time to call on the Zords." Jason stated
We all nodded in agreement.
"We need Thunder Zord power now." Jason, Trini, Billy, Kimberly, Zack, and I called out
"Mastodon-Lion, Thunder Zord Power." Zack called out
Just then the Mastodon Zord got zapped with Black Lightning and transformed into the Lion Thunder Zord.
"Pterodactyl-Firebird, Thunder Zord Power." Kimberly called out
Just then the Pterodactyl Zord got zapped with Pink Lightning and transformed into the Firebird Thunder Zord.
"Triceratops-Unicorn, Thunder Zord Power." Billy called out
Just then the Triceratops Zord got zapped with Blue Lightning and transformed into the Unicorn Thunder Zord.
"Saber-Tooth Tiger-Griffin, Thunder Zord Power." Trini called out
Just then the Saber Tooth Tiger Zord got zapped with Yellow Lightning and transformed into the Griffin Thunder Zord.
"Tyrannosaurus-Red Dragon, Thunder Zord Power." Jason called out
Just then the Tyrannosaurus Zord got zapped with Red Lightning and transformed into the Red Dragon Thunder Zord.
"Gold Gorilla, Thunder Zord Power." I called out
Just then, the Gorilla Zord came burrowing down through the mountains.
"All right Rangers, let's get moving." Jason instructed
"Right." The rest of us agreed
We all then jump up into the air as we then hop inside our Zord's cockpits.
"Rangers, log on." Jason called out placing his hands on the controls in front of him
"Zack here, ready to rock and roll." Zack called out placing his hands on the controls in from him
"Billy here, systems are a go." Billy called out placing his hands on the controls in front of him
"Trini here, online and ready for action." Trini called out placing her hands on the controls in front of her
"Let's get this Godzilla knock off." Kimberly called out placing her hands on the controls in front of her
"Gold Gorilla Zord, battle action." I called out
"Red Dragon Thunder Zord, Convert to Warrior Mode now." Jason called out
Suddenly, the Red Dragon Thunder Zord then transformed as the four legs transformed into the arms, tail turning into the feet as the Dragon's head folds down to the center of the chest revealing a warrior's head.
"Warrior Mode, activated." Jason confirmed
"Gold Gorilla Zord, convert to Warrior Mode now." I called out placing Xavier into the slot in front of me
Just then, the Gorilla Zord's legs straighten up as the body folds upwards as the arms also twisted around becoming more straight as the Gorilla's head comes off and attaches to the chest with its mouth open as a Warrior's type head appeared on top.
"Powered up." I called out
"Begin Thunder Megazord transformation sequence now." Jason called out
Just then, the Unicorn and Griffin Thunder Zords transforomed into the legs as the Red Dragon Thunder Zord Warrior Mode hops into them. The Firebird Thunder Zord then wraps around the waist the Red Dragon forming a belt. Then the Lion Zord formed the chest and full arms as a Samurai helmet appeared on the Red Dragon Zord's head and a Samurai sword inside a holster attacked to the left side of the Megazord.
"Thunder Megazord, power up." Jason, Trini, Zack, Kimberly, and Billy called out
Tommy then pulled out his Dragon Dagger.
"Dragon Zord power." Tommy called out
Tommy then begin playing my Dragon Dagger. A few moments, later, the Dragon Zord rises from the ocean and arrives in our area.
"Hang on, I'm coming aboard." Tommy stated
Tommy then jumped up into the air and hopped inside the Dragon Zord's Cockpit.
"All right, now let's go get him." Tommy called out placing his hands on the controls in front of him
"Okay Power Rangers, let's take down this pile of rocks." Jason instructed
"Right." The rest of us agreed
"Three against one. I love an unfair fight." Rockzilla stated
Rockzilla then suddenly transformed both of his hands into blades.
"Now, time to cut you all down to size Rangers." Rockzilla mentioned
Rockzilla then charged in towards us as we did the same. Tommy's Dragon Zord was the first one to reach him as Tommy had the Dragon Zord swing its tail at Rockzilla but Rockzilla manages to duck under it and then used his bladed arms to slash down on the Dragon Zord making it stagger back a bit. I then had the Gorilla Zord stand in front of the Dragon Zord as I then have the Gorilla Zord charge in as grab both of his bladed arms trying to break them off.
"Nice try Gold Ranger, but I am a lot stronger then you think I am." Rockzilla stated
Rockzilla then shoved his arms forward causing the Gorilla Zord to lose its grip on him as I am shoved backwards as my Zord goes crashing to the ground next to the Dragon Zord's feet.
"This is just too easy." Rockzilla commented
As the Thunder Megazord gets in front of mine and Tommy's Zords, Rockzilla transformed both of his arms into cannons.
"Now, for some more fun." Rockzilla mentioned as he aimed both arms right at us
"Brace for impact guys." Jason instructed
Rockzilla then fired both cannons as several bolder sized energy balls fired out of them striking all of our Zords causing them stagger backwards a bit.
"Oh man, direct hit." Zack stated
"Power Cells are down by fifty percent. Another blast like that could destroy our Zords." Billy mentioned
"We have to think of something and fast." Trini stated
"Yeah, but what?" Kimberly questioned
"Paul, Tommy try a sectorized attack combo. It may be enough to throw him off guard long enough for the rest of us to deal the final blow." Jason instructed
"Got it Jason." I stated
I then grabbed a sphere from behind me.
"Powering up for a Gorilla Thunderbolt special." I mentioned as I inserted the sphere into the empty slot next to me
"Activating Dragon Zord Missiles now." Tommy confirmed pushing a few buttons
The Dragon Zord then rose its arms pointing them towards Rockzilla as missiles then popped out of its fingertips.
"Missiles fire." Tommy commanded pushing the fire button
Just then, the missiles fired out of the Dragon Zord's fingertips striking Rockzilla straight on causing him to stagger backwards a bit.
"Gold Gorilla Thunderbolt fire." I commanded
Just then, three fireballs shoot out of the Gorilla's mouth striking Rockzilla straight on causing him to go crashing to the ground.
"Jason, quick, now's your chance." I called out
"Right bud, Thunder Saber, power up." Jason called out
Suddenly, the Thunder Megazord's eyes lights up as it then pulled out the Thunder Saber from its holster as the Thunder Megazord quickly energizes it.
"THUNDER SABER, ENERGIZED!" Jason, Trini, Billy, Kimberly, and Zack shouted out
The Thunder Megazord then slashed down on Rockzilla as he then falls to the ground and exploded.
"Yeah, all right." We all cheered
"That was awesome." Zack stated
The Thunder Megazord then puts its saber back into the holster.
Meanwhile back inside Lord Zedd's Palace
Lord Zedd just pounds on the balcony railing in frustration and anger as he begins glowing a darker shade of red.
"GOD DAMN IT! THOSE POWER RANGERS HAVE DEFEATED ME ONCE AGAIN!" Lord Zedd yelled out
Squatt and Baboo who were standing off on the other side of the Throne Room quiver in fear as they slowly begin making their way towards the hallway to avoid Lord Zedd's wrath. Lord Zedd then grips the balcony railing tightly as he just grunts out some more frustration.
"Next time, those Power Rangers won't be so lucky." Lord Zedd muttered
Meanwhile inside the Youth Center
After the battle, we all had gone to the Youth Center as we had gotten some smoothies to rewind from the events that had transpired today.
"Man, after today, I really don't want to see rocks for a while." Zack admitted
"Same here man." Tommy agreed
"Hey Paul." Jason called out
I finished taking another sip from my Blue Raspberry Smoothie before turning back towards Jason.
"What's up Jase?" I inquired
"How would you feel about joining mine and Tommy's Karate class?" Jason inquired
I just stare at him as I had been wondering when either him, or Tommy or even Kimberly for that matter were going to ask me that question. Kimberly then puts her hand on my shoulder.
"I think it would be really good for you Paul." Kimberly stated
"Kim is right bud. It would be a really good idea if you learned more on defending yourself without having to rely on your powers all the time." Tommy explained
'Tommy does have a good point. I have been relying on my Ranger powers to help me fight. There may come times where I won't be able to Morph and I still would need to somehow defend myself.' I thought to myself
I then looked over towards Jason.
"After thinking about it for a bit, I have decided that it would be best for me to join yours and Tommy's class Jason." I informed him
"You made a wise decision Paul." Trini commented
"I agree with Trini Paul. I think it'll help you out in more ways then one." Billy added
I just nodded as I took another drink from my smoothie.
'I hope they are both right about that.' I thought to myself
AN: There you are the fifth chapter for this story. Hope you all enjoyed this chapter. Now, not sure when the next chapter will be out, but it'll be a good one and it will show Paul's first time taking karate as well as introducing some characters that'll have reoccurring roles in the first few stories of A New Home. Then, later on in the series, have a main role. I'll explain more on that one at the end of the next chapter when you see it. So, until next time, please R&R.
