"It's time to throw off those chains and addle our brains with madness!" That's one of my favorite song lyrics from a song called - I'll be That Girl- by the Barenaked Ladies. I think that maybe it explains perfectly what happened to me when I started to write this fantastic fic! Muahahahaha!

Jack Landors gathered up his lost articles of clothing from their various points of impact around the room, grinning madly to himself. That was the most incredible, most erotic, most exciting…Damn that was good! He found himself praying that something did come out of all this. Not just because the two of them turned out to be a potent combination in the sack, but because he realized that now that he had had Sydney Drew he couldn't bare the thought of any other man putting his filthy fingers on that perfect alabaster skin. He was falling for her and in a big way (not that he hadn't already been poised at the edge and ready to jump head first). Pulling his shirt back on Jack winced slightly as it dragged across the nail marks down his back. Small price to pay. He thought to himself (even though he had thoroughly enjoyed it at the time.) Whistling a happy tune while he straightened his out his dreds and adjusted his sunglasses, Jack couldn't help but think about how pissed off Sky was bound to be at them for ignoring his calls. His smile grew even wider. Confidently he walked out the door of the classroom and ran head first into the Blue Rangers upper torso.

"Hey Sky." He looked up into the face of an infuriated man and greeted him casually.

Sky said nothing at first choosing to slam him up against the wall almost in mockery of what he had done to Syd earlier. Jack just really hoped that Sky didn't have any intentions of doing to him all the other things he had done to Syd after this point. Not that Sky Tate wasn't a very attractive man, he was. Jack just didn't swing that way, and told him so. That only seemed to infuriate him more.

"What the hell do you think your doing?!" Sky yelled barely an inch away from his eardrum.

"Not hearing anything else you have to say now, thanks a lot." Jack wiggled his finger inside his ear hoping to maybe magically restore his hearing. Ignoring his smart-ass comments Sky continued to rip Jack a new one.

"Here we are hunting down a killer and you think it's a good time not to answer your radio because you're too busy doing god knows what with your teammate! What the hell is wrong with you Jack! When you didn't answer I was worried that you two might have gotten hurt or even worse, killed!"

"Why Sky I never knew you cared…" This only earned Jack another slam against the wall.

"Dammit Jack this is not the time for your bullshit! With Cruger gone that puts you in charge! Why don't you grow up for two seconds and act like it!" Jack felt the anger and resentment that he had been trying to escape from bubble to the surface.

"Why don't you back the fuck off Mr. I'm a self righteous prick!" Jack tried shoving Sky away but the taller man had more leverage, so instead Jack did something that he absolutely hated to do. He phased through Sky's body causing both men noticeable physical discomfort. Once out the other side both men took a long deep breath before continuing their argument. Sky shakily turned around to face Jack.

"Don't you ever do that again." He quietly threatened.

"Believe me Sky another pass through your body is the last thing I want, I think I got arrogance all over me."

"I don't even want to hear about arrogance you asshole."

"You know what Sky maybe you wanted all this, but I sure as hell didn't! Okay? I didn't ask to be the Red Ranger! I didn't ask for any of this to happen! I didn't ask to be the one that everyone counted on when things went to shit!"

"Your right Jack you didn't ask for it! It was handed to you on silver fucking platter!"

"Look Sky I really don't think this is the time for another Tate pity party about how you didn't get to be the Red Ranger."

"And I don't think it's time for an "oh poor Jack! What a reluctant hero!" sob story."

The two men stared each other down in murderous silence.

"Did you hear that?" Sky's attention was suddenly pulled away from Jack.

"Hear what? There's only empty classrooms, no ones up here but us."

"SHHHH!" the Blue Ranger shushed him and then perked his head up straining to hear the noise fighting it's way through the silence. He then turned back to Jack and asked -

"Where's Syd?"

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sydney Drew had never been so giddy or so guilty at the same time. On one hand what her and Jack just did was…amazing. On the other hand what they just did was completely inappropriate on so many levels. The Commander was dead, they were supposed to be searching for the killer and to top it all off they did it on a teacher's desk…and against the blackboard, and the floor, and the teacher's chair. Sydney gazed into the mirror lost in her own thoughts. What was going on between her and Jack? What would the others think? Bridge would be pleased for her; he always was when it was anything that made her happy. Z would be…okay? She wasn't sure. Sky would be mad, that much she knew. But then again when didn't Sky have a two by four up his butt about something. He had never liked any of the guys she had dated after him, but it was his loss right? And Jack was sure to be no exception. It wasn't exactly CNN breaking news that the two of them didn't get along. Wait did she just say dating? Her and Jack were dating? The thought actually caused that warm fuzzy feeling to spread through her stomach. When these feelings for Jack had occurred she wasn't really sure. Maybe it was when he did that thing with his tongue she mused. Glancing at her watch she realized she had been the bathroom long enough. Sky was probably there by now and if she left the two boys by themselves for too long chances were one of them wouldn't be alive when she got back. She gave her hair one last flip and turned for the door. It was then that she heard something behind her.

"Hello Sydney."

The cold voice that echoed through the girl's bathroom sent shivers down her spine.

"Who's there?" she demanded without turning around.

"Just a fan of yours…"

Suddenly music blared to life. She knew right away that it was hers.

"What do you want?" she asked over the poppy music. Turning to look for the source of the voice, all she saw was a small portable CD player.

"Nothing much..."

The voice bounced off the tile walls making it impossible for her to pinpoint what direction it was actually coming from.

"Just an autograph..."

The voice got closer and was now definitely behind her. Syd reached up to her diamond stud earrings that she always wore just in case. In a flash her hands copied the material fastened into her ears.

"In your blood!"

Spinning around she found herself face to helmet with the Yellow Ranger. Syd tried to ignore the blinding panic now rushing through her system.

"Well you're sure as hell not Z." she commented trying to remain calm. "Her butt may be big but it's not that big."

The Yellow Ranger lashed out at her throwing an awkward punch.

"Lets see how you like a fist full of diamond!" Syd ducked and smiled as she smashed her fist into the imposter's stomach. What she didn't expect was for her hand to actually smash. Shards of glass tinkled to the floor mixing with the laughter coming from the Yellow Ranger and her own voice singing through the stalls.

"I'm sorry!" the voice mockingly apologized. "I switched all of your diamonds out for costume jewelry! But really Syd you think that you of all people would have noticed." Syd dropped to her knees blinking in disbelief at her shattered hand.

"And now about that autograph…" The Yellow Ranger bent down and picked up one of the shards that used to be Syd's middle finger. Before Syd could process what was going on it was too late, her scream was lost in a gurgling of blood spurting from the gash in her throat.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Jack where's Syd?" Sky asked again.

"She's in the bathroom cleaning up why?"

"Don't you hear that?" Sky turned his head towards the music he was sure he heard coming from around the corner. Jack's ears perked to the sound as well.

"Yeah I do."

"How long as she been in there?" He turned to Jack who was still staring in the direction of the bathrooms.

"I don't know, 10 maybe 15 minutes? It's Syd, when doesn't she take forever in the bathroom getting ready?" Despite his statement Jack found himself moving towards the girls restroom Sky close on his heels.

"Something's not right…" Sky mumbled. "I hear her voice, but she's singing." His pace quickened.

"Well maybe I was just that good." Jack half -heartedly joked.

"You wish." Sky retorted. Both men couldn't stop themselves from moving, their walk had turned into a light jog, and upon turning the corner the music got louder.

"It's her CD." Sky tried to keep the panic that was rising in his throat from edging into his voice.

"And you would know." The feeling that had been plaguing Jack earlier in the day was now screaming in his brain, something was very, very, wrong. Realizing this both men ran full sprint to the girl's bathroom dreading every step.

"Syd!" they called out in unison the closer they got. No real answer was heard only her recorded voice going on about how it was "all about her." With a burst of speed Jack ignored the door, phasing through instead, with Sky directly behind him. Forgetting that he did not share in Jacks power to walk through walls, Sky hit the door with a loud thud. Stepping back he cursed Jack under his breath, rubbing his forehead.

And then he heard Jack scream.

Yanking the door nearly off its hinges Sky burst into the room to find Jack kneeling next to the bloody body of their pink princess.

"Oh God no…Syd!" Sky's voice was a harsh whisper.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And let the flaming begin!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

What's this? Now Syd's dead too?! The HORROR! The MADNESS! The FUN!…uh hehe…

Why do I have the feeling I just made a whole lot of enemies?
