Chapter 15: A Surfer is a Genius?
At Justin's house, Justin is looking at old news paper articles. It shows him winning chess tournaments and winning academic bowls. He has a white collar shirt with navy blue slacks. He sighs as puts them back in a box.
Sophia walks in the room. "Hey Justin, dinner is ready". Sophia said to Justin. Justin nods to Sophia as he puts the box away in the closet. He heads down stairs as he sees his parents with some pizza on the table.
Justin picks up the slice of pepperoni pizza as he puts it on his plate. His mom looks at Justin. "Justin, I ran into Ms. Weeks. You know the lady from the institute. She says hello". Maria said to Justin,
Justin sighs as he knows who his mom is talking about. "That's nice mom, I haven' heard from her since I was in the 8th grade". Justin said to Maria. Maria looks at Justin. "You know you could have been on a full time job and have a couple of degrees right now". Maria said to Justin.
Justin sighs as he knows where this conversation is going. "Mom, you and dad know that I will be constantly be judged to the fact that I am a genius. I don't want to talk about this anymore". Justin said to them as he heads up to his room.
His parents and Sophia look at each other wondering what's gotten into him.
Back at the dark castle, Diamanda went towards her mom. "Mother, I went to the location where the evil signal is coming from. However the seal on the cave is more powerful than my powers to break". Diamanda said to Queen Omitrix.
Queen Omitrix sighs to Diamanda. "If it can't be broken by your powers, we have to use other means darling". Queen Omitrix said Diamanda. Diamanda nods as she understands.
Darcel and Commander Darius walk in with another monster. The monster is a mutant half caveman half body builder. It has a lot of physical strength.
Queen Omtrix looks at the monster. "Darius, you sent another monster that failed to destroy the rangers. What makes you think that this monster can defeat them"? Queen Omitrix asks Darius.
Darius looks at Queen Omitrix. "This monster has a lot of physical strength. When this monster smashes, it is bound to leave a mark on them. His brawn is more powerful than his brains". Darius said to Queen Omitrix.
Queen Omtrix seems intrigued by the monster; however, Diamanda is not as impressed with this monster. "Sent it against the rangers Darcel", Queen Omitrix said to Darcel. Darcel nods to Queen Omitrix. "It will be done, my Queen". Darcel said to them as she left.
Queen Omitrix looks at Diamanda. "Diamanda, what's on your mind"? Queen Omitrix asks Diamanda. Diamanda looks at Queen Omitrix. "This monster does not impress me that it can destroy the rangers, mother. Plus with Zeomaxis in the punishing cell, and it is only a matter of time that either Darius or Demitia ends up in there as well. I suggest I bring a friend of mine to come help us". Diamanda said to Queen Omitrix.
Queen Omtrix looks at Diamanda as she is considering this. "You mean inviting your best friend Princess Kayleigh Zedd from Royal Villainy Academy". Queen Omitrix said to Diamanda.
Diamanda nods to Queen Omitrix. "Yes mother", Diamanda said to Queen Omitrix. Queen Omitrix is intrigued by it. "Your suggestion is better than Darius's monster, darling Diamanda". Queen Omitrix said to Diamanda. Diamanda nods to Queen Omitrix as she makes a call to Kayleigh. After a few minutes, the call ends, Diamanda looks at Queen Omitrix. "She will be here soon, mother". Diamanda said to Queen Omitrix.
Queen Omitrix nods to Diamanda. "Is there something else bothering you"? Queen Omitrix asks Diamanda. Diamanda looks at her mom. "The thrill of battling the rangers is gone. I did battle the first red ranger of earth, but it only lasted about ten minutes tops". Diamanda said to Queen Omitrix.
Queen Omitrix looks at Diamanda. "Don't worry about that darling, the thrill will come back soon enough. Plus when we have the red ranger here, you can personally watch the experiment". Queen Omitrix said to Diamanda.
Diamanda has a smile on her face. "It will be my pleaser to watch the red ranger suffer". Diamanda said to Queen Omitrix. Queen Omitrix nods to Diamanda as they have an evil laugh.
That day in school, Justin is sitting through his math class. The teacher is going over the lesson on the quadratic formula. Justin sighs as he knows the formula from the inside and out. "Now class, I want you to solve this problem". The teacher said as he shows the problem on the whiteboard.
As the class begins to solve the problem, Justin already solved the problem. As the teacher looks at the students in his class, he is wondering if someone solved it. "Alright, does have anyone have the answer to this problem"? The teacher asks them. The students look at each other as no one wants to answer it.
The teacher looks at them. "How about you, Sam"? The teacher asks a student named Sam. He has dark skin tone with short dark brown hair and brown eyes. "The answer is 3.92". Sam said to the teacher.
Justin rolls his eyes as he knows it's not the right answer. Something in him made him blurt it out. "He is wrong. It's actually 4.92". Justin said to the teacher.
The whole class looks at Justin. The teacher looks at Justin. "You are correct, Justin". The teacher said to him. Everyone in the class is stunned by this. Espella is also in the same class with him. 'Thats two for two for us, Darius does know how to pick a monster. Plus I wonder if Justin is really a genius'. Espella thought to herself. Sam frowns that a guy showed him up in class. 'No one shows me up like that and gets away with it'. Sam thought to himself.
After class, Justin is at his locker getting his books for his next class. He is about to close the locker door when someone rudely closes the locker door on him. Justin turns around and sees Sam with Trevor. "What do you want Sam"? Justin asks the student named Sam.
Sam glares at Justin. "You showed me up in class. I didn't expect a surfer to be a smart guy. You must be a geek in disguise". Sam said to Justin. Justin looks at Sam. "No way dude, I only pointed it out because I got the correct answer". Justin said to Sam.
Sam rolls his eyes at Justin as he has a fist made in his hands. "My friends are the only ones that can call me dude. You are not one of them". Sam said to Justin as he hit him in face. As Justin gets hit, he falls to the floor. Sam looks at Justin. "What's wrong surfer geek? Are you afraid to fight back"? Sam asks Justin.
Just as Sam is about to hit him again, David sees what's going on. He frowns as he sees this. "That's enough", David said to Sam as he walks over to them. Stella and the others minus Eliza also sees what's going on.
Sam looks at David as he is surprised to see this. "I never thought a football star like you would ever think about other people besides yourself". Sam said to David. David looks at Sam. "Well, life is full of surprises. If I were you, I would get lost". David said to Sam.
Then a teacher came and takes Sam away to the principle's office. "Thanks Eliza", the teacher said to Eliza. Eliza nods to the teacher as they head towards the office.
David turns to Justin. "You ok man", David said to Justin as he gives him a hand up. "Yeah and thanks dude, I never knew that football stars are kind". Justin said to David. David smirks at Justin. "I never showed it too often especially around my other younger sister". David said to Justin as he walks away.
As Stella sees the two talking, she notices her necklace glowing as she sees a bright indigo color within David. 'Another ranger, could it really be'? Stella ask her self. Mike also gets a vision as well.
Vision
Espella is on the beach as she reveals to Justin as the evil black ranger as Slimcos and the monster of the day ambushes him.
David and Fry are fighting Slimcos and and an unknown monster. They are getting their butts kicked. "Tell that red ranger that I am itching a rematch with him". The monster said to them.
Vision ends.
Mike is getting a bad head ache. Stella, Dove, and Fry sees this. "You ok", Fry said to Mike. Mike nods to Fry. "Yeah, I have share this vision with Avalon, but something about the vision bothers me". Fry said to Stella.
Stella looks at Mike. "What do you mean"? Stella asks Mike. "I will tell you and the others later". Mike said to Stella. Stella nods as she and the others went to Justin.
Justin looks at his friends. "Hey guys, I am alright". Justin said to them. Dove looks at Justin. "You should go see the nurse". Dove said to Justin. Justin nods as he goes to the nurse's office.
Later on in gym class, Coach Scott sees the note from the school nurse. He looks at Justin. "You got one bruised cheek". Jason said to Justin. Justin sighs to him. "Yeah Coach Scott, it's will get better". Justin said to Jason. Jason nods to Justin.
Justin went to his friends as Stella looks at him. "Why did Sam hit you anyways"? Stella asks Justin as her eyes changed to orange from her normal blue. Justin looks at Stella as he is curious about her eyes. 'Did her eyes instantly changed like that'? Justin asks himself. "I answered a hard question in my math class. Apparently I showed him up". Justin said to them.
Fry shakes his head as he is hearing this. "Guys and their massive egos", Fry said to them. Stella's eyes are some dark and light orange. 'He is telling the truth, but I get the feeling that he is hiding something but what'? Stella thought to herself. Plus she also notices David with his friends as her eyes change to purple. 'I do sense light and goodness in you, but why you in particular'. Stella thought to herself as there are more questions than answers.
Meanwhile Espella is heading back to the gym. She drops off some papers in a locker. 'Perhaps the academic bowl team will get him on board. He must be a genius after all'. Espella thought to herself as she walks in the gym. She looks at Justin as she has an evil grin on her face. 'Your energy will be mine, blue ranger. Plus I do not have the heart for you anyways'. Espella thought to herself.
After school, Justin is heading to his locker when he gets approached by a senior. He has brown hair and green eyes. "I had no clue that you are a genius. The science club will be happy to have you". The guy said to Justin.
Justin looks at the guy as his friends are walking towards him. "I am sorry but I am not interested". Justin said to the guy. The guy shows him the articles. "I got these in my locker. I assumed that you want to join us". The guy said to Justin.
Justin frowns as he sees them. "Where did you get them"? Justin asks the guy. The guy looks at Justin. "They were in my locker. You didn't put them there"? The guy asks Justin.
Justin looks at the guy. "No you assumed that I put them in there, but you jumped to conclusions. I am surfer not a freaky genius". Justin said to the guy as he is angry as he walks away. Stella's eyes change to a dark orange. 'That's a lie', Stella thought to herself.
Stella and the others look at each other as they try to catch up to him. However by the time they got to the student parking lot, Justin already took off. Stella frowns as she looks at them. "Let's split up to cover more ground, one of us is bound to find him". Stella said to them. The others nod in agree.
At the beach, Justin sits on the sand as he is in a grumpy mood. 'I do not want everyone to know that I am genius. I know I didn't say anything about it to anyone, so how did that guy have those articles'. Justin thought to himself.
Justin sighs as he notices Espella walking towards him. "Hey Justin, you look really down". Espella said to Justin. Justin looks at Espella. "I came to clear my head. I am not in the mood for company". Justin said to Espella.
Espella looks at Justin as she has that evil look about her. "To think I was building a crush on you, but now you will be more crushed". Espella said to Justin.
Justin has a stunned look on his face. "What are talking about"? Justin asks Espella. Espella looks at Justin. "I thought you are the genius". Espella said as she morphs into the evil black ranger.
Justin is shocked to see Espella as the evil black ranger. Slimcos and the monster of the day shows up as well. Justin grabs his morphor. "Guys, major trouble at the beach". Justin said to Stella. "We are on the way, Justin". Stella said to Justin.
Justin is holding his morphor. "Unity Force Unite the Power", Justin said as he morphs into his ranger form. The other rangers also arrive at the scene as well in ranger form.
The monster looks at them. "Me smash rangers", the monster said he charges in at them with both of his over muscular arms up in air. The monster knocks the Slimcos out of its way just to fight the rangers.
As each one of the rangers tries to get a hit on the monster, the monster easily absorbed the physical blow. Justin tries to use every physical blow to weaken the monster, but all it did was weakening him.
The monster looks at Darcel. "Me weaken blue ranger. You can do special thing". The monster said to Darcel. Justin grabs his sea trident out. Just as Justin sends his ocean wave blast at the monster, Darcel jumps over the monster and uses her energy draining move on Justin. The monster got hit by Justin's attack and pushes down some.
Justin is being hit by the energy drain as it is pointless to resist. A jar of blue energy is filled in Darcel's hands. Justin lands on the sand as he demorphs. He is in some pain as he struggles getting up.
Darcel and the monster looks at them. "Me be back soon", the monster said to them as Darcel and the monster disappears. Mike and Fry went to Justin as they help him up. Dove looks at Stella. "The sooner we destroy that monster; the sooner we will not listen to his bad grammar". Dove said to Stella.
Stella nods in agreement as the rangers teleport to the Unity Castle.
At the Unity Castle, Jason and Avalon sees the rangers arriving with an injured Justin. "This is the third time in many days". Avalon said to them as they went to the healing chamber.
Mike and Fry got Justin on the same blue healing bed from before. Justin looks at them. "Guys, I have to tell you this". Justin said to them. Avalon looks at Justin. "You need to rest Justin". Avalon said to Justin.
Justin looks at them. "It's the identity of the evil black ranger. Her name is", Justin said as he falls asleep as the healing crystasis is taking effect on him.
The rangers look at each other wondering who Justin is about to say as the evil black ranger. Avalon looks at them. "He needs to sleep now". Avalon said to them. The rangers nod as they left the healing chamber except Avalon to check on him.
In the command room, the rangers gathering around in a ranger meeting as. "Ok so far they have stolen energies from Mike, Eliza, and Justin. We do not know what they are using the stolen energy for, and we don't know who is going to be the next target". Stella said to them.
Fry looks at them. "It seems that they are using a monster to weakening us to make it easier for Darcel to take the energy from us". Fry said to them.
Dove nods in agreement. "Yeah plus when Stella first got hit by the energy drain from Darcel, she resisted it. Plus Mike was able to resist it as well". Dove said to them.
Eliza looks at them. "Yeah but that was before his secret coming out. Mike couldn't resist it when he was really tired and exhausted". Eliza said to them.
Mike nods in agreement. "I agree with Eliza. Plus when Eliza and now Justin got the energy drain, they were really weaken from the monster. Plus we also revealed our secrets to each other in the process". Mike said to them.
Stella looks at them as things are putting together. "They are using monsters to weaken us first to make things easier for the evil black ranger to get the energy from us. Mike what was the vision about"? Stella asks Mike.
Avalon and Jason looks at Mike. Mike looks at them. "The first part of the vision had the reveal of the evil black ranger to Justin. The second vision had two guys fighting an unknown monster. The thing is the monster is probably delusional because it said tell the red ranger I am itching a rematch with him". Mike said to them.
The rangers look at each other. "You are probably right about the monster being delusional. The red ranger of our team is Stella". Fry said to Mike. Stella has a sudden realization on her face. "Wait a minute, maybe that's what Justin was trying to tell us before he went to sleep". Stella said to them.
Dove also has the same realization. "Stella's right, it will also explain why Justin was acting weird at school today". Dove said to them. The rangers look at each other as they hurry back to the healing chamber. Avalon and Jason also went with them.
In the healing chamber, Justin broke the healing crystasis as the others walk in the healing chamber. Justin looks at them as he is bummed about learning about the identity of the evil black ranger. "Hey everyone, I suppose I have a lot of explaining to do huh". Justin said to them.
The rangers and both mentors nod in agreement. "What happened earlier"? Fry asks Justin. Justin looks at them. "The truth is, I am a genius". Justin said to the rangers. Stella's eyes change again to bright orange. The others are shocked by this. "You are a genius as in a guy with a very high IQ right". Mike said to Justin.
Justin nods to Mike as he has a guilty look on his face. "Yeah, I could have gone to college when I was in the eighth grade, but I didn't go". Justin said to them. Dove looks at Justin. "But why didn't you though"? Dove curiously asks Justin.
Justin looks at them. "I acted dumb to be accepted by others around me. I love being a surfer and hanging out on the beach. If I did gone off to college at a young age, I wouldn't be treated the same way by others". Justin admits to them.
Stella looks at Justin. "You are a cool guy to be around Justin. Plus knowledge can used to solve various problems that can rise in a situation". Stella said to Justin.
Mike looks at Justin. "Yeah man, I have visions, Eliza's bi sexual, and you are the genius. You can make things that will be useful to us, and we will appreciate it and not constantly using you for our own gain". Mike said to Justin.
Fry nods to Justin. "I agree with everyone, but before you went to sleep. You were about to say who is the evil black ranger was". Fry said to Justin.
Justin sighs as he looks at them. "Her name is Espella McKnight. She said to think I was building a crush on you, but now you are going to be crushed. I did not expect that one coming at all". Justin said as he is really bummed about it.
As the rangers are stunned to learn this, Jason is really surprised about it as well. "I always thought that she is just a cheerleader, but I am wrong about that". Jason said to them. The rangers nod in agreement about it.
Back at the dark castle, Darcel is delivering the jar of blue energy to Dr. Quintox. In the lab, Dr. Quintox sees Darcel coming. "Good, another ranger energy is here". Dr. Quintox said to Darcel. Darcel nods as she hands the jar of energy to Dr. Quintox. Dr. Quintox puts it with the other jars.
Darcel leaves the lab as she realizes that she can not stay in Unity Lakes for much longer. Diamanda sees Darcel. "Hey Darcel, you have been doing great against those human rangers". Diamanda said to Darcel.
Darcel nods to Diamanda. "Thanks Diamanda, I can not stay at my home for much longer. The rangers know my identity. My new home is here". Darcel said to Diamanda. Diamanda smiles as she hears that. "Good, just get a few things from your house. Then we will have fun here as your new home". Diamanda said to Darcel. Darcel nods as she left the castle in human form.
That night, Espella is at her house as she grabs a few things. She left behind her normal cell phone, and a cryptic note. Her mom is at a business dinner as she has no clue what her daughter has been doing. Espella teleports back to the castle as Diamanda sees her. "Welcome back Darcel, you must be ready to stay with us". Diamanda said to Darcel. "Yes I am Diamanda. I refuse to go by that freaky Espella name. My name is Darcel". Darcel said as the black power is glowing around her.
The next day at school, Justin is feeling better as he sees his friends in front of the school. The teens are about to separate for their homeroom classes when they notice a frantic mom heading to the front office with a police detective. The teens look at each other as they hear the frantic mom's voice. "My daughter ran away from home. I got home late from a business dinner, and in her room I found this. It just does not make any sense to me". The mom said to the people in the front office. The other teens are shocked that a cheerleader of all people would run away.
After school, the teens are back at the Unity Castle as they explained about what happened at school. Avalon has a concerning look on her face. "This will not bode well. Espella's mother has no clue on what her daughter has been doing especially that the dark evil crystal is controlling her". Avalon said to them.
Justin sighs as he looks at Avalon. "What can we do though? It's not like convincing her to fight the evil controlling crystal will work". Justin said to them.
Jason looks at Justin. "You will have break the evil hold over her. My team did it with Tommy. There were other ranger teams that did the same thing". Jason said to them.
As Justin nods to Jason, the rangers look on the screen and sees the monster is back. "Looks like our dumb monster is back". Fry said to them.
Jason also looks at Justin. "One more thing Justin, brains always beat over brawn. Do that and this monster will be destroyed". Jason said to Justin. Justin nods to Jason as the six teens morph into ranger form as they left the castle.
Back at the beach, the rangers spot the monster from before. "Me ready for rematch, especially you blue", the monster said to them. The rangers grab their weapons out as they are ready to fight. "First of all, brawn does not get you anywhere in life. Second of all, brains is always the better choice. Third of all, you don't have that black evil ranger helping you this time". Justin said as the battle begins again.
As the fight begins again, the monster charges in like it did the last time. Eliza easily dodges it as she flips over him as she throws her nature uniramg at the monster. The monster is hit by the special attack as he stumbles back some.
The monster spots Mike as it uses it's arms to swing him down. Mike easily dodges it yet again and uses his steel gauntlets on the monster. The monster does get hit again as it is pushed back some.
As the monster tries to do the same thing over and over again on Fry, Stella, and Dove, they easily dodges it and used their special attack against the monster. The monster is getting exhausted and tired.
Justin looks at the monster as it is tired. "My plan is going perfectly. You constantly used your physical brawn on us to weaken us, but we dodged your brute strength and used our special attacks against you. It tired you out quicker each time we used our special attacks on you. Ocean Wave Blast", Justin said to the monster as Justin's sea trident is glowing a bright blue color.
The attack lands a direct hit on the monster. "Me go bye bye", the monster is destroyed. Justin has a grin on his face. "That's the Unity Style with a bit of genius as well". Justin said to them. The rangers nod as they teleport away to the Unity Castle.
Back at the Unity Castle, Avalon and Jason give their praises to the teens. "Like I said brains over brawn", Justin said to them. Jason looks at Justin. "I am the one that told you that, Justin". Jason said to Justin.
Fry looks at Justin. "Are you sure he is a genius then"? Fry asks Justin as he is teasing him. Justin looks at Fry. "Yes I am a genius, Fry". Justin said to Fry as the rangers are giggling at Justin.
Stella notices the others giggling as she went up to Avalon. "Avalon, is it possible for another ranger is identified"? Stella asks Avalon.
Avalon looks at Stella. "It is possible why you ask"? Avalon asks Stella. Stella looks at Avalon as she explains about the mysterious glow when Justin and David were talking and the bright indigo color around David. Avalon has a pondering look on her face. "I never knew that there is another ranger being identified in Unity Lakes. Your necklace is never wrong when it comes to identifying things. I do have another morphor ready in case something like this happens. However the crystal that goes with it is not here. You should keep an eye on this David person, Stella". Avalon said to Stella.
Stella nods to Avalon. "I will Avalon". Stella said to Avalon. Stella went back with the teens as they left the Unity Castle.
Meanwhile David is in his room, he opens up wooden box that he pulled from the closet. He sees an indigo colored crystal in the box. 'Who is going to believe me that I have something like this'? David thought to himself as he puts the box back in his closet.
End chapter
Ok, a new ranger will be coming soon. I was thinking about the number of male rangers to the number of female rangers on the team and the lacking of male rangers. So to that end, David will be the newest ranger that dball99 created.
My parents celebrated their 33rd wedding anniversary yesterday.
