Chapter 2: Wild Force

I barely got up and went over to Eric. We both could barely stand especially Eric who fell to the ground. The mutants were still coming towards us. I tried blocking Eric since I knew he was too weak to fight now.

Eric asked, "Wes? I thought all mutants were captured and sent back to the future."

I responded, "So did I." one mutant then talked in some language I didn't understand. My guess is he probably said something like it's time to die or something. I knew Eric and I were done for until we heard some yell, "Falcon Summoner!" We then saw a streak of red attack the mutants.

We dodged it as it almost hit us. I asked, "What was that?" I then saw what looked like a group of power rangers.

The red ranger yelled, "Hold it right there org!"

I said, "All right more rangers!" They all did there pose and yelled, "Power ranger Wild Force!" Wild Force? Ok I'll take it.

Eric and I turned to see the mutants were still fine. One of them took out what looked like a small dagger. They all looked at it and then just left. Eric and I tried chasing them but they teleported.

I yelled, "Ugh! They got away!"

Eric said, "We'll get them next time." I nodded and both us powered down. The other rangers ran up to us.

The blue ranger said, "Looks like we got here just in time." Eric didn't look pleased by this statement.

He asked, "What are you guys doing here?" The yellow ranger then started thinking to herself. She then pointed at Eric.

She demorphed and yelled, "Hey you were the one that gave me a ticket this morning! We just helped you. The least you can do is say thanks." Wow Eric gave a yellow ranger a ticket. It is a small world after all. The rest of the rangers started to power down. These two looked like they were about to kill each other until I, The red ranger and the black ranger stopped them.

The red ranger said, "Whoa Whoa Whoa. Wait a second guys."

The black ranger said, "Come on guys were all rangers here. Right Taylor? Right?"

Eric then started to chill out, "All right all right. But why don't you guys leave fighting mutants to the big boys." Big boys. I think something was telling me Eric did not like the fact of being helped by some one he just gave a ticket to.

The blue ranger looked confused, "Mutants? You must mean orgs."

Eric and I were confused, "Orgs?" They then started looking at us like this was common knowledge or something. I then started thinking. What if some mutants escaped form the future and went back here. I knew I had still had that equipment Jen gave me just in case of an emergency. I knew had to contact the future now to get some answers. I decided it was best not to get the other rangers involved.

I said, "Listen guys. We have to go." I offered my hand to the red ranger. "Thanks for your help."

He took it, "Anytime."

I told Eric, "Come on." I started walking but Eric was still looking at the yellow ranger. Something told me he liked her. But now was not the time for this. I pulled him back. "Come on!"

I ordered the guardians, "All right let's pack it up and move out!" Eric and I got back into the jeep.

Eric yelled, "I still can't believe we were just saved by rookie rangers! Not only that but one them is actually a criminal."

I rolled my eyes, "I don't think speeding exactly makes you a criminal. Come on. I thought you were over this whole "I don't need anybody" thing."

Eric responded, "Yeah with you guys. But I still got pride. I don't need help from rookie rangers."

"Eric they may be rookies. But if it weren't for them we be dead right now. You weren't like this when the lightspeed rangers came to silver hills."

"That's because Lightspeed rangers are not rookies. They are an actually respected organization like Time Force."

"How do you know these guys aren't part of an organization? Besides I think you just can't accept the fact that you saved by the girl who was speeding. The girl who you happen to have the hots for."

"Excuse me!"

I laughed, "I practically had to pull you away from her." I then started to get serious. "But look it's time to get down to business. I have a theory that some mutants escaped form the future. Jen gave me some equipment so we can contact the future."

Eric responded, "So you want to contact the future and make sure your hunch is right?"

"Exactly."

"Ok Let's do it." Eric and I drove back to silver guardian headquarters. I took the equipment out of my locker and brought it back outside. When no other guardians were around Eric and I set up the machine and contacted the future. When the screen came to life we saw the smiling face of Trip.

He responded, "Wes, Eric, it's good to see you."

Eric said, "Hey Trip."

I asked, "Any mutants escaped form the future?"

Trip then started to get nervous, "Oh um."

I looked at Eric and then looked back at Trip. "Trip please. You have to tell us what you know."

Trip took a deep breath and the started to explain, "Time Force was tracking three fugitives in the year 3001. How they showed up in the year 2002 is beyond me." We'll they gave us some answers but not enough.

Trip continued, "Oh there's something you should know Wes." The minute he said my name he caught my attention.

"Jen was assigned a special mission to arrest those mutants." The minute he mentioned Jen my heart sank and just by the tone of his voice it wasn't good news. Please god don't let her be what I think she is.

"But we lost contact with her a few weeks ago."

I nearly cried, "Jen." Please god let her be all right. Eric then put his hand on my shoulder to comfort me. Now I was more determined to get these mutants. The next thing we have to do is find the Wild Force Rangers.
