A/N: Megygirl thanks for the comment and I hear what you are saying but my goal in this story is to write every episode from Wes' POV even ones that don't focus on him much. For ones I like this I'll try to add my own scenes that will relate to the episode. Thanks again for the suggestion. Oh check out my forever red POV story one is actually complete.

Chapter 6: Short circuited

Another day another mutant I always say as we were once again fighting a mutant. This time he decided to attack around mid afternoon. We rode on the time jet looking for the mutant. I head a beep from my morpher it was Circuit.

I responded, "What's up Circuit?"

He answered, "The mutant is right below you."

"Thanks Circuit." Man good thing for Circuit who knows how we would have been able to defeat those mutants without Circuit's help. I mean if it wasn't for him we would have no megazord.

Jen snapped me out of my thoughts, "Let's do it guys!" We nodded and jumped off the jet landing in front of the mutant.

He asked, "Who are you?"

Trip answered, "Time force you are under arrest!" We all flashed our badges at him. "We don't want any trouble now give your self up peacefully."

"Not a chance Cyclobots!" Cyclobots appeared at his command. We all took out our chrono sabers.

Trip said, "Tried to warn you." We all charged at the cyclobots and began hacking away with our sabers. "Guys I'll take care of the mutant!"

I responded, "Be careful Trip." I don't know what it was with Trip today. Usually he is the quiet shy one and now today he's leader.

Jen yelled, "Wes behind you!" I turned and saw a bot behind me getting ready to fire.

"WHOA!" On instinct I slashed the bots head off. I saw Trip wasn't exactly doing so well against the mutant. He was tossed to a thing of crates. We surrounded the fallen Trip. He launched out this electric whip attack that knocked us all on the ground. You know I am really getting sick of getting electrocuted. I knew being a ranger I would expect to fall down and get toss around a lot but not electrocuted. Trip was the first to get up.

He said, "It will take more than that to stop me!" He charged at the mutant and gave him a few slices. He then used a Time strike. Wow that's the first time I've seen Trip do a time strike. Then again it's weird seeing him using the chrono sabers usually him and Katie go for the V weapons. "Yeah we got him." I had the feeling we didn't. I was right as the mutant exposed his mutant DNA. "Circuit we need you!" Circuit sent out the Time flyers. We went to Jet mode and used the cyclone defense. He tried firing at us but the cyclone blocked the shots. We fired back.

I knew we had him on the ropes. I tired a shortcut command. "Time Force megazord deploy saber." The flyers went in to mode red and I took out the saber. "Time to finish this, full power!" I used the final strike and this mutant was ready for the freezer. We jumped out of the jets. And they went back to the future. Trip put the mutant in containment. We demorphed and headed back to the clock tower.

When we got to the front door I asked, "Hey Trip, can I talk to you for a second?"

He responded, "Sure Wes." Circuit came out of Trip's backpack.

He asked, "Do you want me to go back inside Wes?"

I laughed, "No circuit anything I can say to Trip I can defiantly say to you." The others went back inside.

Trip asked, "What's up Wes?"

I responded, "Good job out there today. You really stepped up to the plate."

Trip was acting like his usual shy self and looked to ground. "We all did it together Wes."

"I know that but you really stepped up today. Usually you are under the radar when it comes to battle. So I just wanted to say nice job."

He looked like he was about to cry, "Thanks Wes. I just tried to help the team out."

Circuit said, "You sure did Trip." Circuit kind of surprised me. I'm still not use to his surprises appearances.

I said, "You did well today too Circuit. I mean without you who knows what we would have to do when the mutant grows."

"It's no problem Wes. I'll always be there when it's definitely time for the megazord."

"I know you will. Come on guys let's go back inside."

((A/N: Sorry about this part guys but I don't exactly play poker so I don't know all the terms but I'll try my best))

Later that day Trip was working on circuit, Jen and Katie went out shopping. Of course it took Katie a while to convince Jen since she wanted to do more work as usual. Lucas and I were enjoying a nice game of poker. It was nice because I was winning. At first I was going to teach Lucas how to play but he said there is poker in the year 3000. He even said it still played the same way. The only difference was the cards were bit more enhanced but that made no difference. I just won another hand and gloated, "Woo hoo I hope you have a good hand Lucas." He put most of his chips in the pot.

I couldn't believe he would put that much in. "No, you're bluffing." I put more of my chips in the pot.

Suddenly Trip exclaimed, "Four kings, Amazing!"

Lucas was confused, "What?"

I laughed, "Four kings?" I took all the pot because I had four aces. Lucas got up not looking to happy. I decided not to get involved and shuffled the cards for the next game.

Lucas walked over to Trip, "What did I tell you about reading minds."

Trip answered, "It's um rude?"

Lucas said, "Exactly." He took out a piece of tape from his jacket pocket and put it on Trip's gem.

"But I was just…"

"…The gem is grounded for one day no more mind reading." I just shrugged and handed Lucas cards. Personally I don't mind Trip's gem but at the same time I don't want him revealing that I had a dream about Jen last night. Or that fact I'm starting to have a thing for her.

Lucas groaned, "He is always doing that. It sometimes makes me paranoid."

I responded, "Yeah but that who he is you know. I mean someday that gem could become useful to us."

"How?"

"I don't know. Maybe he could use it to read Ransik's mind so we could know his next plan of attack."

Lucas just gave me a cold stare.

"What?"

"Well he didn't exactly do that when Ransik escaped from the year 3000."

"What are you talking about?"

"Back in the year 3000. We were the ones that was supposed bring Ransik to put in containment. But he had an escape plan all ready to go. Him and Nadria tricked us and they were able to escape. He couldn't see that but he could see what cards I had!" He slammed his fist on the table.

I tried to calm him down, "Look maybe Ransik had a way to block Trip's gem. Or Trip might have been too nervous to use it but that's the past… or future. But Ransik is here now in this time and we will bring him to justice."

He looked at me and laughed, "Man you sound like Jen."

I laughed, "Just shut up and play already." We then started another poker game. A half hour later Jen and Katie came back and an image popped up on the time force computer. It showed another mutant attacking the city.

Lucas yelled, "Mutant attack!"

Jen ordered, "Let's go!" Lucas, Jen and I started running outside.

Katie asked, "Wait! Where's Trip?" Jen started to contact Trip. There was something weird going on thou. Trip has been gone for a while now and usually Circuit tells us if there is a mutant attack. Even if he was with Trip I'm sure one of them would have contacted us.

Jen contacted Trip, "Trip we got trouble meet us at the old industrial area."

Trip said, "Yeah but.."

Jen yelled, "But what?"

"Ok I'll meet you there."

We morphed and teleported to the industrial area. We saw this big fat white mutant he had what looked like a camera for a head.

Jen asked, "Ready guys?"

I responded, "Let's do it!"

We ran towards the mutant. I tried giving a punch but he blocked it and shoved me out of the way. The others couldn't get any hits on him either. I tried again by giving him a few kicks but he pushed me to a wall. He then held me down and started to repeatedly punch me in chest. The pain was really getting to me. I lost my breath at one point. Suddenly Trip appeared out of nowhere and punched him from behind. This gave me time to catch my breath. Trip got a few good shots on him.

I said, "Thanks Trip."

"No problem. Hey, listen Wes. Something really terrible happened. I think…" Before he could a finish a cyclobot kicked him out of the way. Two other bots put me back up against the wall. I blocked their attacks and was able to escape. I took out my chrono saber and went to go fight the mutant with Katie. I'm still wondering what Trip had to say. He did say something terrible happened but what? I shook the thought out of my head and got back to the fight. I leaped in air and give a drill attack. Katie leaped on the air and bounced off my sabers and stabbed the mutant. Katie then took put her sabers to full power and took out the mutant single handily.

I said, "Good job Katie."

"Thanks." Suddenly the mutant exposed his DNA and grew.

I contacted Circuit. "Circuit, we need the megazord." I got worried when I didn't hear his cheerful voice responded back. "Circuit?"

Trip called, "Wes! That what I was trying to tell you. Circuit was kidnapped by Nadria. It's all my fault."

Jen said, "Metacon will crush the city if we don't get that megazord!"

"But how are we gonna…" Metacon then fired a blasts at us that knocked us all to the ground. He was tough enough when he was normal but giant size he might be unstoppable. I couldn't stand. The only good thing about this was he was able to take out the cyclobots. I saw Trip was demorphed. Lucas walked over and took the tape off. He told Trip to use the gem. Trip ran off to go find circuit.

Lucas walked over to me and helped me up, "I guess this is the day that gem will be useful."

I responded, "Yeah but now we got to hold this guy off until Trip finds Circuit which hopefully won't be long." Metacon gave us another blast. This time I got up immediately. "Come on guys we can't give up!" The others got up and we chased after Metacon. People were running scared form the giant Metacon. One man fell in front of me. I helped him up. "Quick get to safety." He nodded and ran off.

Jen said, "Guys we have to make sure that no one gets hurt and we have to survive."

I responded, "Right Jen. Let's try to give Trip time. Hopefully he'll get Circuit ASAP!" Explosions were going off everywhere. People were seriously getting injured. It felt like a war. We tried to help as much people as we could. I stayed behind the guys so I would take more of the damage instead of Lucas and Katie since they were holding people and also I could not see Jen get hurt again. After a while I started losing hope.

Katie said, "I can't take much more."

I said, "He too tough."

Jen being the leader that she was said, "Come on we've got to hang in there." Suddenly Trip came back in his vector cycle.

He said, "I brought us some help." Suddenly Circuit came flying down and landed on the vector cycle. Thank god he's all right and now we can use the megazord.

Katie said, "Yeah circuit."

Lucas said, "We're glad to see you."

Circuit said, "No time for that there's work to do. Dispatch Time Force Megazord". I gave him a thumbs up and we watched as the time flyers came out from the portal. We got in the time flyers and went into jet mode.

Trip said, "Wes use the strategy we used to attack the mutant from earlier today."

I responded, "Good idea. Cyclone defense!" The cyclone was able to knock Metacon off his feet. We came out of the cyclone and fired at him.

Circuit said, "Trip you know what to do." Trip called for mode red. Mode red formed and Trip went for the saber this time and gave the final strike. Metacon was ready for containment as we left the time flyers and they went back. Trip put Metacon in containment.

He then said, "Wait guys where is circuit?" We demorphed and started looking for him. We called out his name like he was lost puppy. He then appeared and landed on a tree.

Circuit said, "At your service Trip." We all breathed a sigh of relief and ran up to him. We looked up at him and he looked inferior to us from up there.

Trip said, "Look I'm really sorry about the mess I got you into. I could have sworn Nadria was being honest."

"I tried to tell you but noooooooo."

Katie said, "It's not your fault Trip. All Zybrians are trusting.

I said, "Yeah I think it's cool. Totally honest and totally trusting."

Jen joined in, "Don't ever change. Let's go home." I followed Jen and we started to head back until I heard Lucas go, "Yuck!" We turned to see that Lucas stepped on a pile of dog crap.

Trip walked over to us, "You told me not to tell you." We all started laughing except Lucas. He started trailing behind as we kept laughing. Ah just another day with my friends.
