Author's Note: This chapter is mostly about Tommy's pain and the introduction. I hope you enjoy as I have writing this. And when Tommy woke up in the middle of the night, that was the morning to this chapter. I thought I should mention that since you won't get confused in some point in the chapter, you'll see it when you read. Enjoy!

Power Rangers & It's characters (C) Saban/Disney
Amber Oliver and This Story (C) Me


It was time for school in the town of Reefside but as Conner, Kira and Ethan sat down in the science classroom. Dr. Oliver was no where to be seen, and another teacher came in, taking his place, "Hello class, due to some unforeseen circumstances, Dr. Oliver could not be here today, I will be taking his place until tomorrow where he'll resume his duties," said the teacher while looking at the papers.

Kira, Ethan and Conner looked at each other confused at why their teacher wasn't there that day.

"Why isn't he here?" Kira whispered to them in confusion, it was written all over her face, holding her hands, leaning over the table a bit.

Conner shook his head and shrugged his shoulders, "I don't know, Kira, something must have come up,"

"Like… maybe more Dino Gems?" asked Ethan in a whisper.

"Or maybe Dino Eggs," Kira shrugged, not knowing either.

Conner looked at the two, "Whatever it maybe, I'm sure Dr. O can handle it," they nodded.

What the three didn't know is that their teacher wasn't in Reefside anymore at this time; he was in the place where he grew up… Angel Grove.

Dr. Thomas "Tommy" Oliver had gone to Angel Grove for today, was the anniversary of his beloved sister's death. He was walking toward her grave with pink roses, knowing those were her favorite flowers and when he got there, he looked down at it, kneeling toward it, placing the flowers there…

Tommy's face was turning red and his eyes were filling up with tears, "Oh, Amber…" he whimpered, sitting there, "After all these years… I still see your face in my nightmares, regretting that I couldn't save you when I could have," he sat there before looking up at the sky, "Why? Why did you have to die!? Why couldn't it have been me!?" he yelled out to the sky, regretting it so much that it was tearing him apart deep down and now it was showing.

Over ten years and he still regrets what happened that day…

Amber Oliver was standing there, dying slowly bit by bit, but had enough strength to stand and Tommy Oliver was standing there, a bit hurt from the Vinerals monster, both of them staring at each other in silence.

"Angel Grove needs the White Ranger," Amber spoke up, standing there, being serious.

Tommy looked at Amber, stepping forward then slashed his hand to the side, "I know but I won't leave you behind, there has to be another way!" he held his hand out.

Amber walked up to Tommy, "You have always been so brave," she placed his hands on his shoulders, "And always wanted to protect me," she smiled a bit, "But it's time for something new," she said softly.

Tommy placed his hands on hers that were on his shoulder, "No, I'll get you out of here," he promised, but she shook her head, tears forming, "That's one promise that even you can't keep," she said gently.

Tommy shook his head, not wanting this to happen, he wanted to save her, he had to save her, "No! I-" before he could say anything else, Amber kicked him in the gut and he hunched over then she pushed him into the portal and it shut directly behind him.

He screamed, "Amber!!!" he held out his hand to where it shut before ending up in the command center.

Tommy punched the ground, "I should have been able to keep that promise! I should have been able to get her out of there!" he closed his eyes, on his knees, holding his head, crying.

The great Dr. Tommy Oliver beaten himself up for an over ten year mistake, wishing he could of have made it better, could of made a miracle, could of saved the one his family loved so much.

The regret was staying there with him through out eternity, he couldn't stop the feeling of being so ashamed and guilty, so much full of regret… he couldn't stop it.

"Amber…" he whispered, sniffling, his hands on his cheeks, looking at her grave, unable to take back this mistake, unable to fix it. How can he continue to live like this? Knowing fully well that Amber wouldn't want this, but he couldn't stop. He just can't.

At Mesogog's Lab

Elsa was walking through, then pushed Zeltrax out of the way, "Get out of my way!" she walked over to Mesogog and bowed, "My Lord,"

Zeltrax hmphed, really fed up with Elsa, wanting to just kill her but at the same time, he cared for her but wouldn't admit it to her face because she didn't see him in that way.

Mesogog looked up from his seat, "What is it?" he said in that voice that could give anyone the chills, but not Elsa, she loved his way of thinking.

Elsa looked up at Mesogog, standing up, "I have something for you, something I have found in a cave," she stepped aside as the Tyrannodrones brought in a hibernation-looking egg on a wheel carrier in front of Mesogog, "I believe, My Lord, that I can make some use of this specimen," she said as Mesogog got up from his seat, walking around it, "How can you make use of a… human?" he leaned into her ear, saying those words before standing behind her, waiting for her reply, his hands behind his back.

Elsa looked at the human inside that had beaten up clothing, dirty looking and torn a bit as if the human had been thrown around, "I believe, with your consent, My Lord," she bowed, "That you can turn her with your evil powers," she suggested.

Mesogog stood there, looking at Elsa before at the human specimen inside, touching the egg with his hand, "Hmm… very good plan, Elsa, very good," he grinned, looking at Elsa, before looking at Zeltrax, "Prepare the chamber for this one,"

He nodded, bowing a bit with his fist over his heart, "Yes, My Lord," he went over to the chamber.

"By the way, Elsa," he looked toward her, "Where did you find this?"

"In a cave near the waters, My Lord," she bowed, "I don't know how it got there, but it looked like it had been there for over ten years," she explained.

Mesogog hmphed, seeming impressed with her discovery, "Good job, Elsa," he sat down, "We'll see how this turns out,"

Elsa bowed with a smile on her lips, head down.

At Angel Grove

After sitting there for nearly an hour, Tommy realized that he should be heading back to Reefside, the ride is long and he got there in three hours time, having talked to Amber's grave for so long that he knew it was time to go home.

He slowly stood up, his face and eyes back to normal, "I love you, Amber, and I hope, me helping other people and students shows it," he turned around, walking toward his jeep where he got into it and drove off back to Reefside but he decided to make a side stop, going to see his parents where he stayed with them for a half hour, all three of them having great memories of Amber when she was alive and laughs, which lifted Tommy's spirits but not his heart which still hurts greatly for his failure.

"She really loved you, Tommy," said Mrs. Oliver who was standing there at the door with Tommy and Mr. Oliver as they said their byes.

Tommy hugged his mother and said, "I know she did,"

Mr. Oliver hugged Tommy, "She wouldn't want us down, so we have done everything we can to keep happy memories alive of her," he looked at him, holding his shoulders.

Tommy nodded, "Has have I," he said in a soft voice but reassuring and left the house, waving to them and they waved back as he drove out of the driveway.

As Tommy drove off, his communicator went off and he looked at the time, seeing it was almost time for his students to get out of school, "Yes?" he asked into it as he drove.

"Tommy," came Hayley's voice, "Could you come straight to the Café? There's something I really need you to see,"

Tommy nodded, "I'm on my way. I'll be there in three hours. I just got done visiting my parents," he was driving but his voice kind of cracked in sadness.

"Are you alright?" Hayley asked concerned.

"I'm fine, I'll see you there," he replied.

"Alright, seeya," the communicator shut off, bringing back bad memories for Tommy of Amber…

Tommy wasn't in tears but they were forming, "What-what am I going to tell Mom and Dad?" he asked with a sniffle into the communicator.

"T-tell them… I died feeling no pain and it was quick and that I love them very much," she coughed, wheezing, static beginning to come in, "A-and Tommy, keep being a Power Ranger and k-keep figh-fighting," Amber said slowly as the communicator cut out.

A tear rolled down Tommy's cheek, "I will," he promised, the heart breaking most of promises he ever had to make, to keep going with his life, without Amber.

Tommy kept driving as the memories overwhelmed him but didn't cry this time, only his heart ached with remorse and pain.
