Disclaimer-since i don't own them, do you think i could buy the power rangers?
Chapter Three-The Computer's
"You know", Tommy said with venom in his voice, "As interesting as all of this is, it is getting us nowhere."
"I know." Haley replied. "You'd think that after being around for a couple thousand years the guy would have had some sort of organizational system going on here. And as for Alpha, aren't robots supposed to be extremely organized and all that jazz?"
It had been over a week since Tommy had first got the computers working. In all of his spare time, he had been down there, working on getting into the main computer system. Haley had been devoting all of her time away from her café to working on he computers. But still, they were no closer to finding an answer than when they had started.
"You know, the rangers will be here soon for their training. Maybe we should stop for now and clear some space for practice."
"Yeah, right." Tommy said distractedly. Right now, helping Kim was number one on his list of priorities. But, when he heard the four teens coming into the dino lair, he forced himself to stop. He knew that however important it was for him to help Kim, right now she would want him focusing on training these teens to carry on the legacy that had started in Angel Grove, when she and Tommy had been teenagers.
"Hey Dr. O!"
"What's up Dr. O?"
"Yeah, what's up with you, we haven't had practice in like a week?"
So far, Ethan hadn't said anything, instead he was staring open mouthed at the computers. Also, it looked as if he was drooling slightly. Finally, he spoke.
"Woah! Dr. O, where did you get those? They look high-tech."
"They are high-tech. They are also the old computers from the command center, back when I was a teenager."
"Dude! You mean they are from the Stone Age?"
"Conner!" Kira, Ethan, and Trent all said in unison. Haley however smiled.
"They aren't quite that old."
"Really?"
"Gosh Conner! You just don't know when to shut your big mouth." That was Kira, of course. Only she could get away with telling Conner he had a big mouth. Which she did about three times a day.
"Really. You know, I wasn't a teenager all that long ago."
"Not something I want to picture. Dr. O as a teenager."
"Again Conner with the big mouth. We should make a T-shirt for you that says- 'I don't think I have a big mouth, do you?'- Don't you think?"
"That would be pretty amazing."
"Yeah it would."
While this exchange was going on, Tommy had suddenly thought of something as he watched Ethan walk over to examine the computers.
"Hey Ethan."
"Yeah Dr. O?" Ethan said, looking up from the computers.
"You like computer's right?"
"Ethan, like computers? That's an understatement."
"Oh gee, thanks Conner. But yeah, I like computers, why?"
"Because, Haley and I could use some help. We are trying to find some stuff on these things." Tommy said indicating the computers. "But we are having some trouble locating some specific files."
"I can help! Just tell me what you need me to find."
"Ok. We are looking for any medical files that you can find in there, and any medically related experiments or information."
"Ok, that should be easy enough, especially since you narrowed down the topic so much. I'll get right on it now…but I have to practice, don't I?"
"Well, you can skip it just this once as long as you work extra hard next time."
"Yes, sir!" Ethan said enthusiastically. Being a power ranger was fun, but computers were even better, so his time would be well spent. Searching for power ranger information, on a computer.
"Oh, that is just so wrong, that much enthusiasm over using a computer."
"Shut up Conner!" Everyone said in unison.
