Power Rangers and Harry Potter
Chapter 2: The Power of Friends
"So all we have to do is hold out these things and say our dinosaurs?" Neville asked. Tommy nodded. "That sounds easy."
"There is one catch, though," said Tommy. "You have to be trained in martial arts." Harry and Ron laughed quietly as Hermione blushed. "What's so funny?"
"When you mentioned the martial arts thing, we remembered what Hermione did to Draco Malfoy in our third year," Ron said.
"What did she do?" Kimberly inquired. "I've got to hear this."
"Well, our friend and Care of Magical Creatures teacher, Hagrid, was teaching us about a creature called a hippogriff named Buckbeak. The bloody creature got sentenced to death after scratching Draco in the arm and we went to visit Hagrid." Ron answered. Harry took point from there.
"When we got there, Draco started taunting us and Hermione sort of blew up." said Harry grinning. "She called him a foul, loathsome, evil little cockroach and held her wand at his throat. Ron told her it wasn't worth the trouble, so she pocketed her wand and punched Draco in the face." Hermione blushed harder.
"Wow," said Tommy. "You really have a big heart and a strong arm."
"Well, Draco never messed with me since then." she said confidently. "That's for sure." Kimberly smiled and decided to watch Tommy teach the new team martial arts.
After two and a half hours of training, the new Power Rangers finally got it right. Hermione succeeded in knocking Tommy towards a wall, Harry gave him a bruised rib with a round house kick, and Ron did a spectacular flip and split-kick, which knocked Harry and Tommy backwards.
"Good job, you three." Tommy said. "You guys did good."
"Do you want me to try?" Ginny asked stepping forward.
"No, I think I've had enough pain for one day," Tommy said. Harry, Neville, Ron and Hermione laughed. Ginny smiled as though she knew he would say this.
"Lunch is ready," Kimberly said through the basement door. "We're having cheeseburgers today."
"Oh, I am so fond of her burgers," Tommy sighed, his mouth watering. "She makes the best in town." Ron scoffed. "I'm not joking, Ron. Just wait."
Ron soon found out that Tommy was right. He started talking about his mom's cooking back at the Burrow. Harry's mouth watered just from hearing about her sausages and her treacle tart. After lunch, Ginny and Hermione went with Kimberly to work on some gymnastics moves in the basement. Harry, Ron, Neville and Tommy stayed upstairs and enjoyed some man time. The doorbell rang and Harry answered the door. There stood Jason and Kat, Jason a little heavier set than he was a long time ago, and Kat looking like the French girl, Gabrielle Delacour.
"Jason, Kat! What are you two doing here?" Tommy asked. "You missed lunch."
"Sorry, bro, but we thought we'd see how the new team were doing," Jason said sitting down.
"Actually, Jason wanted to know if you proposed to Kim yet." Kat said with a twinkle in her eye that reminded Harry a lot about his old headmaster, Professor Dumbledore.
"Yeah, and after she agreed…" Tommy waited until Kat stopped squealing, …we got attacked by a Death Eater.'
"Man! At least she said yes," Jason said. "Oh, Billy and Zack are on their way. They had some last minute stuff to do before they came over."
"Tommy, where's Kim at?" Kat asked. "I wanted to see her."
"She's in the basement with our new Pink and Yellow Rangers," Tommy said smiling. "Thanks for letting them have your power coins."
"Hey, don't worry, I still have my Gold Ranger powers," Jason said. "That dude, Trey brought them back when he found out that the Earth was under attack again, and Kat has her Pink Turbo Morpher yet."
"So, you two are definitely going to help us?" Harry asked. "That's brilliant!"
"Besides myself, Jason is a master at the martial arts. He knows Kento, Judo, and Karate." Tommy said. "I know Tai-Jitsu, Tai-Kwon-Do and Karate."
"Wicked," said Ron. Everyone heard the alarm blare downstairs. "Oh, bloody hell!"
"Let's get to it!" Kimberly yelled running up the stairs. "There are Putties, Cogs, and a one ugly monster!" All of the Rangers teleported to the site.
"Okay, that's one butt-ugly monster," said Ginny. "May I?" She looked at Harry who nodded. "It's Morphin' Time!"
"Mastodon!"
"Pterodactyl!"
"Triceratops!"
"Saber-tooth Tiger!"
"Tyrannosaurus!"
"Gold Ranger power!"
"Zeo Ranger one, pink!"
"Wind Chaser, Turbo power!"
"Braccio Power!" All nine Rangers stood in a line.
"Power Rangers!" said the new team.
"Pink Turbo Ranger!" yelled Kat.
"Gold Zeo Ranger!" said Jason.
"Pink Zeo Ranger!" shouted Kimberly.
"Black Braccio Ranger!" said Tommy. The monster, the Z-Putties and the Cogs stood ready to fight. "Rangers, let's go!" said Tommy.
"Putties, attack!" the monster ordered. "Cogs, take them down! I'll get the Black Ranger!" While his fellow Power Rangers took on the Putties an Cogs, Tommy went for the monster. "What's wrong, Tommy? Having trouble?"
"No, my reflexes aren't as good as they used to be." Tommy said. The monster cackled and struck him in the chest. Harry and Kimberly saw Tommy hit the ground and they both attacked the monster, but ended up on the ground with them.
"Oh, great!" said Ron. "Harry, Tommy and Kimberly are in trouble."
"Well, get the damned monster, Ronald!" yelled Hermione. Ron pulled out his Power Axe and struck the monster in the back. "Yes!" Hermione shouted with happiness. The monster got up and vanished in a flash of light.
"Man, that was bad," said Jason. Kat helped Tommy and Kimberly to their feet. "You guys alright?"
"Yeah, let's hope that the monster doesn't come back though," said Tommy. "Otherwise, he'd be getting a whooping."
Back at Tommy's house, the Rangers entered the Dino Base only to find that they had a message on the computer. Tommy pressed the replay button and Alpha 5's golden head appeared on screen.
"Power Rangers, if you see this, the Command Center has been rebuilt by Billy and myself. We figured out that Zordon wasn't really destroyed. He found his way back to Eltaar in time to help with the battle." Alpha said. "If you are able to communicate, please contact us immediately and we will teleport you here."
"Well, Rangers," said Jason, "it looks like you'll meet Zordon and Alpha after all." Harry and the others looked puzzled, so Tommy explained that Zordon was their mentor back in his early Ranger days and his friend Andros destroyed his energy tube.
After a while, Tommy contacted Alpha.
"Alpha, it's Tommy. We're ready for teleportation." he said.
"Standby for teleportation," Alpha said. Seconds later, they all felt a surge as their bodies were covered in light and were lifted into the sky. They landed in a brightly lit room. The floor was lit with white lights, the walls were a light silver and Zordon's energy tube stood facing them. Alpha 5 was walking around the room pressing buttons and twiddling knobs with Billy Cranston.
"Tommy, it's nice to see you again," said Billy. "and these must be the new Power Rangers?"
"Yes," said Harry. "I'm Harry Potter, Red Ranger. This is Ron, the black, Hermione, the pink, Ginny, my wife and the yellow Ranger, and this is Neville, the Blue Ranger."
"Good." said Billy. "At least we have a decent Blue Ranger." He saw Jason, Kat and Kimberly. "I see you three have found your old powers?"
"Yep," said Kimberly. "I'm the Pink Zeo Ranger now, and Kat's got her Turbo powers. Tommy has his Dino Thunder powers." There was a flash of light and the vaporous head of Zordon appeared in the energy tube.
"Power Rangers, it is good to see that you are safe," he said. "I trust you know the problem we have."
"Yeah, we found out the hard way," said Tommy. "Apparently Bellatrix Lestrange found a way to use Rita's Putties and the Cogs."
"That isn't the only problem," Billy said. "She's also found a way to bring back Goldar and Rito. Look on the viewing screen."
On the screen were the two evil henchmen of Rita and Zedd. Goldar, who served as Rita's first henchman and Rito, her brother.
"Oh, man!" Tommy said. "It looks like we may need some more help." He held his bracelet on his wrist to his mouth and pressed a button on it.
"Conner, Ethan, Kira, can you hear me?" he said. "It's Dr. O."
"We hear you, Doc," said Conner. "What's up?"
"Prepare for teleportation," Tommy said. "We'll fill you in when you get to the Command Center." He nodded toward Alpha who pressed the teleport button. In an instant, red, yellow, blue and white columns of light were landing near the other Rangers.
"Hey, Doc, what's the emergency?" Ethan asked. He saw the other Rangers and looked at Tommy. "I thought you said their powers were destroyed?"
