a/n-forgot to tell you last chapter, i put the family tree like thing on my profile page. i hope it's useful. it basically just describes each character.
disclaimer-if i owned the power rangers, then i would have updated sooner, because i wouldn't have had to study for that stupid AP test, cuz i wouldn't be in school anymore!
Chapter Eleven-To Blow Up Something That Isn't There Because You Already Blew It Up, But Could Still Technically Be Blown Up
"Hello darling." Was the first thing Rito said when he was led into the throne room by Haxel. "I've missed you so much."
"I've missed you too, Uncle Rito." Scarlette replied. "I havn't seen you since...that day."
Rito shook his head sadly. "Terrible waste, really. You're parents. Evilest people I ever knew. Too bad Zordon's death had to make them 'cough' good."
"Yes, well, speaking of Zordon's death." Scarlette said. "He isn't dead. And speaking of dead, I thought you died when Zordon supposedly did."
"The good guys aren't that lucky." Was Rito's response. "So, I suppose Zordon not being dead has something to do with your madman of a henchman attacking me for no reason?"
Scarlette shot Haxel a deadly glare at this. He cowered underneath it. Satisfied, she turned back to her uncle.
"Yes, as a matter of fact, it does." Scarlette informed him. "You have a certain area of expertise that could be very beneficial to me. Remember the good time you and Goldar had, back when the Command Center was still around?"
Rito smiled that evil grin that seemed to run in the family. "I've always wanted to do that again."
"Good." Scarlette said softly. "Then I have a job for you."
"What'd they say? What'd they say?" Kyle demanded. "I wanna know what they said."
"So do I." Sam put in. They both turned to Ada, the only other person in the room.
"Me too." Ada said. "You know, it's our team. We're gonna be the ones going back if they say yes. So shouldn't we be the ones making the call?"
"Stupid parents." Sam muttered.
"I'll just pretend I didn't here that." Kimmie said, walking in to the room.
"Good." Ada said. "So, did they call them? What did they say?"
"Calm down." Kimmie said. "Yes, they called Time Force. They'll be here soon with the time ship. For some reason, jen seemed to want to get here as soon as possible."
Sam shrugged. "As long as they're coming, we're fine."
"They aren't going to be safe for much longer." Jen stated. "We have to hurry up. You know what Scarlette supposedly does. We need to get there before anything happens. As long as we get the three rangers, then everything will be fine."
"But what if we get there too late?" Katie asked. "What if she gets there before we do?"
"We'll just have to hope she doesn't." Lucas said. "Our lives depend on it."
"Everyone's lives depend on it." Trip said softly.
"Well, then." Jen said, suddenly brisk again. "We better not let them down."
"Year 2038, here we come." Lucas said, starting up the time ship.
"When are they gonna get here?" Kyle asked or what seemed like the thousandth time that day. "I wanna go on the ship. Is it gonna be like the spaceship?"
"Probably not." Ada said, for what also seemed like the thousandth time that day. "And they'll get here when they get here."
"But what if they're late?" Kyle demanded.
"They can't be late." Sam said exasperatedly. "They have a time ship. That means they can go to whatever time they want."
"That is so cool." Kyle said in awe. "So, when are they gonna get here?"
"Someone just shoot me now." Ada muttered under her breath.
"But if we did that, then you would never get to meet your parents as toddlers." A voice said from behind her.
Ada jumped around in shock. Standing before her, now, were four people she did recognize, all wearing white outfits. She gave them a small smile.
"Time Force, I presume?" Ada said.
"The one and only." A man with green hair said.
Kyle looked up at him with wonder on his face. "Why is your hair green?"
"Because he wants it to be." Ada said. "Now stop asking questions. We have to get out of here before mom changes her mind."
"Good plan." One of the women, the one standing at the fron of the small group actually, said. "Everyone into the ship. Hurry, hurry."
Quickly, the group of what was now seven left the command center and got into the time ship. As they were taking off, Ada noticed something rather strange.
"What's that?" She asked, pointing to what looked like another ship coming closer and closer to the command center.
"Nothing." The woman, who Ada assumed was the leader, snapped. "Oh, by the way, the name's Jen. Pink Time Force Ranger."
"I'm Kyle." Kyle said cheerfully. "And that's my sister Ada, and that's Sam."
"Yes, we know." Jen answered, with a small smile on her face. "All three of you, just hold on tight, there's going to be a bit of a ruff spot coming up here."
Ada held on tight to the armrests on her seat, just as instructed, and after making sure Kyle was secured in his seat, resumed looking out of the window. Her eyes went wide with what she saw.
"Jen." Ada said slowly. "Where's the command center?"
Instead of answering Ada, Jen turned to Katie. "I told you we would get there in time." She turned to the three passengers then. "I'll explain everything once we get to 2004."
"I did it!" Scarlette exclaimed with what could truly be called happiness. "I finished them all off! I've finally done it. I've done what my parents could never do. I destroyed the last of the power rangers."
"Well done, mistress." Haxel said from his place before her throne. "Rito should be returning momentarily."
Scarlette's eyes lit up in glee. "They'll never know what hit them. They didn't know that I knew where they were. They didn't knnow that I knew that the command center even existed. I did it. I defeated them once and for all."
"Actually that was me." Rito's voice said from teh doorway to the throne room. "But I'll let you share the credit. It was your plan after all. And you are my favorite niece."
Scarlette just smiled happily. She thougt she had finally destroyed her last real threat. (Besides the rangers in her dark dimension of course.)
But she was wrong.
Very wrong.
