The girls took a good look at themselves and each other. They didn't like what they saw, they loved what they saw. "I can get used to this," Jessica stated. "I know," Brook said touching her weapons. "Alright," Karone interrupted. "Now first you will start with basic training by yourselves for a few days." "After amateur training is over, the real training will begin," Jen cut in. "That's cool," Nicole said. "How do we use our powers," Mallory said in a little disbelief. "You just focus on you element," Taylor said. "You just need to get use to your element for now." "Yeah, well teach you other stuff later," Kendrix said. "I think you know everything you need to know for now," said Maya. "Power down, go home, and get some rest. Training begins tomorrow," Dana said.
Once the eight were gone, Kendrix decided to tell the others what progress she made on deciding who helps who. "Ok girls, I ran a kind of program for the girls and their strengths and weaknesses," Kendrix said. "And," Ashley asked. "Well, who do you want to start with," Kendrix questioned back. "Doesn't matter," Cassie said leaning back in her chair. "Well, lets start with Anastasia strengths," Kendrix said. "She's smart, and has great potential as leader but, she doesn't to her heart. She has to be good both physically and spiritually. According to my research, Maya would be great help in that department." "I think I can handle that," Maya agreed. "Ok, Brook has some good qualities. She can think fast, act on instinct, and is free spirited. Too free spirited. That can get her in a little trouble if not a lot," Kendrix said. "My thought is that maybe Jen or Taylor can do this job." Jen spoke up, "I'll do it." "Ebony is next. She asks questions, good. She scares people, okay. She doesn't trust people, that might problem. The computer data thinks that Alyssa would be good for this job, same as I was thinking," says Kendrix. "I'm up for it," Alyssa said. Kendrix started with Nicole next. "Nicole is a fighter, and doesn't mind getting her hands dirty. That a good thing. But she is to much of a rebel, and has no discipline." Taylor spoke up, "Figures." "Figures is right," Kendrix said. "Since you are the only one between Jen and yourself that doesn't have someone to help. You are it." "What," Taylor complained. "Moving on," Kendrix said not wanting to cause a scene, " Gaia is in a way, mother nature herself. Her only problem is she doesn't know how to let loose. She needs o come out of her shell." "Vida would be perfect for that job," Madison spoke up. Vida thought about it, "Yeah I guess I would be." "Agreed," Kendrix asked. "Yeah," Vida said still thinking. "Ok, Jessica is a little…what's the word," Kendrix said to herself. "Wooo ooh," Syd suggested. "Yeah," Kendrix said, "She's smart, but not like the rest of the group. Not special but learns things in a unique way." "Close to Bridge," Z whispered to Z making her laugh. Syd suddenly had an idea. "Why don't you do it Kendrix," Syd suggested. "Who, me? I don't think so," Kendrix said. "I do," Taylor said still upset. "Ok, I'll do it," Kendrix said. Kendrix looked on her computer for the next name. "Mallory's a little optimistic about the whole ranger thing. She doesn't believe that it possible, which means she doesn't believe in her powers. Doesn't matter if she can use them well, she just can't use them in the way they need to be used. I think that Kim or Trini would be good for this job." Kim and Trini flipped a nickel to see who would help. "I guess I help," Kim said. "Alright, last but not least, Lita. Anger problems. The computer chose Tori, and Kira." They looked at each other both ready to protest against themselves, but Tori beat Kira to the punch. "I think Kira should do it. She takes her anger out in songs, and she must have to channel anger somewhere, especially working with Ethan and Conner," Tori said. "You worked with Cam, Blake, Shane, Dustin, Hunter, and a talking guinea pig," Kira fought back. "But how did I take out all my anger," Tori asked. "I bet Blake is hoping on him," Kira joked. "Hardy har har," Tori said. "Surfing," Kira smiled. "Ha, that's just for fun! Kira is it," Tori cheered. "Alrighty then," Kendrix said, "so trainers, go find your trainees and tell them what they will be doing. Kendrix turned to her computer and paused for a while. She turned back around. "I didn't ask where they live did I?" Everyone shook their heads.
...Anastasia's House…
A knock at the door stopped Anastasia from combing her brown tangled hair. "Ana, sweetie," her father called, "Answer the door." Anastasia walked down stairs to the door. She opened it to find Maya standing there. Maya wasn't wearing her normal attire, she was wearing brown pants with a yellow shirt. "What are you doing here," Anastasia asked. "Waiting for you to let me in," Maya said. Anastasia moved to the side letting Maya walk in. "What did I do," Anastasia asked. "You did nothing," Maya said, "I'm just here to help you." "With what," Anastasia said. Before Maya could answer, Anastasia's parents, big sister, and little brother walked in. "Who's your friend Ana," her sister asked. "Mom, dad, Tara, James, this is Maya. Maya this is my family," Anastasia introduced them. "Hi, Mr. and Mrs. Samson," Maya said shaking their hands. "We were just about to eat dinner. Would you like to join us," Mrs. Samson asked. "I would love to," Maya smiled. "Great," Mr. Samson said. They walked towards the dining room and Maya whispered to Anastasia. "I'll fill you in, after I fill my stomach."
…Brook's Home…
Brook was in her room in ranger form. "Being a ranger is gonna be so cool." She spun around in front her mirror. Meanwhile Jen was scaling the balcony outside. "I wish someone told me I would be climbing walls. I would have been more prepared," she complained. Finally she had gotten to Brook's window. Jen lightly knocked on the window. Brook quickly powered down and went to the window. "Jen, what are you doing here," she asked. "Oh nothing, just standing by your window in 59 degree weather," Jen answered. "Oh, come in," Brook said opening her window. "Has your hair always been that color," Jen pondered. "My hair is still blonde, it's just the lighting," Brook said. "Oh," Jen said plopping down in front of the heater. "What brings you here," Brook asked. "Oh, I'm gonna be helping you out for a while. Like a temporary trainer," Jen said. "Cool," Brook said. "Yeah, what would be real cool would be a sandwich. Then I'll talk about what we will be learning,"
…Ebony's Place…
Ebony was sitting on the roof of her house looking at the stars. They were maybe millions, billions of miles away. They were so far, yet looked so close. Alyssa climbed up the ladder onto the roof. "Come up here to think," she asked Ebony. "Often," Ebony replied. "So, I just stopped by to tell you that I will be helping you out for a while with the whole ranger thing," Alyssa said. "Why," Ebony asked. "Well, I'm just here for your trust issues," Alyssa answered. "I just find it hard to trust people that's all," Ebony said. "Yeah, well why?" "It's a complicated story," Ebony said. "Well, if you ever need to talk to someone, I'm here," Alyssa said looking up at the stars.
…With Nicole…
Taylor had looked all over the place for Nicole, and found her nowhere until now. At the amusement park. She was walking with a guy at the height of around 6 foot 2, and had redish black hair compared to her orangish brown hair. His eyes green brown as her's were a hazel blue. Taylor shook her head and walked towards them. "Sammy," Nicole whined. "What," Sammy looked down and took a sip of her drink. "Give me my barbeque sandwich back," she complained. "Make me," Sammy said with a grin. "Hey," Taylor yelled at Nicole. Nicole turned around. "Taylor, what is up?" "I have been looking for you everywhere," Taylor said. "I've been here," Nicole said. Sammy watched this exchange. He handed Nicole five bucks. She looked at him. "For another sandwich and drink, I'll be by the front gate when you're ready to go," he said. "Boyfriend," Taylor asked. "Brother," Nicole said. They started walking over to the barbeque stand. "Let's talk about training," Taylor said. Nicole felt a chill go up her spine.
…Gaia's Room…
Gaia was asleep in her bed, not knowing that Vida was in the window watching. Vida looked at the clock in the room. "8:45 and she's in bed," Vida questioned herself. She looked around Gaia's room. "Perfectly clean," Vida questioned again. It was ok for the room to be clean, but this was an unusual clean. It even smelled clean! Too clean. Vida smirked to herself, "I'm gonna spice up your life!" She walked over to Gaia's sleeping form and had an idea. She leaned down to ear level and adjusted her voice to a man's voice. Gaia, I love you, kiss me." Gaia's eyes shot open. "No, my father says I'm not allowed to date until I'm 25!" "25," Vida repeated laughing and highly surprised. "Vida, you scared me. What are you doing here," Gaia asked. "You can't date until your 25," Vida repeated. "Not important," Gaia said. "Yeah, right," Vida said, "I thought you would be awake, so I could talk to you." "About," Gaia asked. "You," Vida said.
…Jessica's Living Room…
Jessy was laying on the couch watching her Gilmore Girls dvd. She hummed the theme song to herself and started singing. "If you're out on the road, felling lonely and so cold. All you have to do is call my name…" Kendrix knocked lightly on the door. Jessy put the episode on pause and went to the door. "Kendrix," Jessica said. "Well, I'm here to help you out," Kendrix said. "With what," Jessy asked. "Well, your training of the mind," Kendrix answered. "But, I'm watching Gilmore Girls," Jessy said. "It's on dvd," Kendrix told her. "Dean is gonna break up with Rory at the dance marathon," Jessica whined. Kendrix took the remote from her. "Hey!" "Don't we have math homework to do," Kendrix asked. "Don't you mean don't I have math homework," Jessica corrected, "Algebra sucks!"
…Mallory's Front Porch…
Kim sat on the porch by Mallory. Conversation had not begun yet. All that could be heard was the wind blowing the trees. Kim spoke up, "You don't believe in your powers do you?" "Not really. So I can put on a suit and helmet, that doesn't mean anything," Mallory said, "What if all that stuff this morning was just a coincidence. The thermometer could have been broken, I did have the heater on, and I could've over heated my food." Kim shook her head and smiled, "Anything is possible." "Can you prove it," Mallory asked. "I can and I will," Kim said. There was a silence. "So you were a Power Ranger huh," Mallory asked. "The first ever pink," Kim said trying not to sound like she's bragging. "Did you believe in this stuff," she asked Kim. "At first, no. But then a wise person told me that anything is possible, and proved it," Kim said. They both resumed the silence and listened to the wind.
…Lita's Kitchen…
"You must be joking. I do not have anger problems. I do not!" "You've been yelling for 28 minutes and have broken a window, a table, a spoon, four knives, and the microwave," Kira said. "Those were already broken," Lita yelled. "Yeah! After I told you what I'm here to help you with," Kira said. "Ok, so I get a little angry," Lita said. "No, you get a lot angry," Kira said. "Ok, so if you're here to help me, help me!" "Hmm, that's a good title for a song," Kira thought aloud. "Hey, over here, girl standing in broken silverware," Lita called. "Oh, yeah you," Kira said. "Yes me," Lita said. "I'll help you, just not right now. You need to learn how to control your powers," Kira said. Lita looked around the kitchen then at Kira. "I will help you," Kira said again. Lita nodded, and watched Kira walk towards the living room and out the door.
