Back in Black
The next day Dominic was on his way home thinking about the last couple days when he he found himself surrounded. He called tommy for help then started fighting.
"so the sidekick thinks he can fight." Dom turned to the voice
"you must be Zeltrax"
"prepare for your destruction." Dom got into a fighting stance and fought him the best he could. Tommy and the teens got there and they got busy fighting the drones. Dom got thrown and trued to stand up but it was too late. Zeltrax stabbed Dom straight through his chest pinning him to the ground. The three teens managed to drive Zeltrax back and Tommy rushed over to Dom.
"Dom stay with me." Tommy stuttered
"Tommy… it hurts"
"I know buddy."
"thanks…" Dom passed out
"DOM!" Tommy cried.
Tommy and the others managed to drag Dominic out of the fight zone before other people showed up. Tommy knew of a medic that could help. He reached for his cell phone and called a friend.
"Hello?"
"Carter, this is Tommy"
"Tommy, I thought you were dead."
"Not quite. I need your help."
"what's going on?"
"Dom was Attacked. Can you and Dana come to reefside?"
"On our way. What is his condition?"
"Stab wound center mass. Two inch across. It was through and through."
"that's serious. We can be there in 15 minutes."
"Reefside general is where we are taking him."
"good. they know us there. we will let them you are on your way."
"thanks. See you soon" Tommy ended the call. There was one other call he needed to make
"Jason it's me"
"Tommy, about time you called me
"We have a situation here"
"What's going on?"
"Jase, there was an attack." Tommy said
"any injuries?" Jason asked
"Jason tell the others 'Mechanic down'"
"Fuck man, no way. Bro what hell happened?"
"they ambushed him. They went after him to get to me. He was stabbed. I called Carter and Dana in."
"Son of a bitch. How bad?"
"Bad. Stabbed in the chest through and through. I got the kids stabilizing him now. can you guys get here soon. And those who can bring 'protection' with you do it. I am not letting them get away with this."
"I hear yea. I will have Kim and Kat go tonight. The rest of us will leave as soon as we are able."
"Thanks bro."
"Tommy, Dom was never a ranger but he has always been a fighter. He will get through this."
"I know, he wanted to help me makes things right with all of you. When we all get together later I will tell you guys everything."
"Okay. Take care and watch yourself."
"Bye."
Jason hung up the phone and called Kim first so she could pick up Kat and Renée.
"Jason, whats up big brother?"
"Kim, Tommy just called. 'Mechanic Down" Kim's heart sank
"No! Jason what happened?"
"Dom was ambushed. We have help coming. Can you and Kat head over to Reefside. Take Renée with you. ."
"Okay me and her will head over there." Kim hung up
After Tommy got off the phone,, Zeltrax made off them Tommy while the kids were not looking. They turned to see him get kidnapped. Kira and the boys were too late. Their mentor was gone.
"Damn so that was their plan." Dominic breathed out
"Dude stay still." Connor said
"Damn it." Dominic pulled his right arm that had his communicator to his mouth.
"Jason, you there?"
"Dom, what happened where's Tommy?"
"It was a trap. They grabbed him. I am sending the kids to his house. I will send out a distress signal."
"We are not going anywhere." Connor said
"oh yes you are. You guys need to find him asap. GO!"
They reluctantly left. Two minutes later. Carter ran up to Dominic
"Carter they got Tommy"
"take it easy. We will deal with that later. You idiot why did you send them home?"
"Carter…" Dom black out.
"Dom damn it don't you dare die on me." The ambulance came and got Dom there. Kim and Kat arrived 2 hours later. Carter met them in the lobby
"Hello, you must be Kimberly and Katherine."
"And by the looks of it you must be a ranger"
"Carter Grayson lightspeed rescue.
"I have heard about you. You're a friend of Tommys."
"Yep. I have of you two from him and Jason."
"Where is Tommy?"
"The enemy grabbed him." Kim and Kat gasped
"What about Dom is he okay?"
"My wife is taking care of him now. he had this on him." Cater gave Kim a coin.
"this is.. I thought this was lost?"
"can you tell me what it is?" Carter asked
"Kim is that?" Kat asked
"Yes this is the Dragonzord Coin."
"Wait that was Tommy's then?"
"this has been missing for years. Dom said he had found it. he was probably on his way to give it to him."
"Dom..." Kat whimpered
"Kat he will be fine." Kim told her friend
"Mommy, is uncle Dom sick?" Renée spoke up. Carter looked at the young girl. He realized who she was.
"you uncle will be fine. my wife is his doctor."
"Okay. Thank you mister." Renée said. Dana walked out. She had taken off her gloves
"Carter are they them?"
"Honey, yes they are. Meet Kimberly Hart and Katherine Hillard. This little girl is Renée Hart-Oliver."
"Nice to meet you girls. She sure is beautiful." Dana
"Thank you. She is one reasons why I came."
"Yeah Jason told me the circumstances." Carter said
"How is he?" Kat asked
"He was in bad shape when Carter found him. The sword wound was a clean cut. I fixed all the internal damage but it is going to scar. He needs to take it easy. Can you ladies make sure he does just that."
"OH We will."
"Good. we sent a message out to all rangers what happened. So expect some visitors. I warned them to wait a couple of days."
"Thank you so much." Kim said
Just then Tommy ran into the hospital.
"Sorry I am late." The four adults looked at him
"Tommy…" Kim said
"Hey beautiful." Tommy said back
"You idiot!" Kim hits him hard.
"Guess I deserve that."
"you okay?" Carter asked
"the kids rescued me as well as.."
"What? What happened?" Kat asked
"I am out of retirement." The four adults looked at him and laughed
"not funny. On top a new color black." Tommy said
"did you use those one-liners you are famous for?" Kim asked
"Yep. "you don't choose the gems they choose you." And They go well with dino morphers and "Just like riding a bike."" Tommy said laughing
"Wow." Carter said shaking his head
"Mommy, who is that?" Renée
"Baby, he is your father." Kim said
"Renée, you're a beautiful girl." Tommy said
"Daddy!" Renée rushed him and he scooped her up. Kim started to cry.
"Kim we can deal with this later. First let's go see Dom. Thanks Carter and Dana. Thank you for everything."
"No Problem."
"Oh and here. Dom was planning on giving this to you when he was attacked." Kim gave him the coin
"How?" he asked
"No idea. Maybe you can use it as a power up." Kim said
Carter and Dana left while Kim, Kat, Tommy, and Renée went to see Dom.
