A short dialogue between my characters most of which I do not own and belong to several of my stories;
Lexi- Come back you little flying booger!
Butch- I know you are but what am I?
Lexi- If Hunter was here...
Hunter- You wished for me?
Alyssa- Hunter, Lexi really needs anger management therapy.
Bubbles- You're telling me? My god this one's been chasing after me and threatening to rip up Octi.
Lexi- Shut your mouth twerp!
Blossom- Who you calling twerp?
Brick- Yeah, you want our fists down your throat?
Wolves come and shift into Brittany, Whitney, and Courtney, everyone else staring at them.
Brittany- Blondie you're lucky this story is yours and not mine cause if I saw my Hunter with any other chick you'd both be dead.
Boomer- Another one with anger issues!
Whitney- You haven't had to live with her for 16 years.
Courtney- She's worse than anyone in with a tempure issue.
Blossom- No, that's Buttercup.
Buttercup- What is this about me?
Princess Rienna- Either way none of you are better fighters than me.
Merlin- Or better with magic than me, Emrys.
King Arthur- Merlin you bumbling idiot! Go polish my armor.
Merlin- Yes sire.
Characters begin arguing.
Me- None of you are more important than me, shut it before I take a white out pen and forget I ever made stories for you.
Lexi- Yep, she's the scariest.
Everyone else- No doubt.
Me- Good, now lets get on with my story, shall we? OOOOH, but before I begin, I hope you guys take me off of Author Alert. Why? Cause I update a lot of stories and I don't want you spammed because of it.
REVIEW!
"This car is as good as ours." the thief chuckled.
Sky called to Jack on his communicator; "Squad Leader, do we move in?"
"Come on Squad Leader, answer!" Jack muttered to himself.
"Squad Leader, come in." Sky repeated, but still no answer came; "Do I move in? Squad Leader."
Syd had enough waiting and jumped up behind the car the thieves tried stealing; "Freeze! SPD!"
The thieves ran but were shortly followed by most of the Rangers, though Jack and Sky had another little arguement.
"Stop!" Bridge shouted as he and Lexi tried to stop one of the thieves, who fought back, but Bridge was able to cuff him up. Syd and Z took the other thief, beating him up nicely before taking him as well.
"This is great." Jack grumbled as the others dragged in the thieves; "I could have been in on the arrest if Squad Leader would've done their job."
"For once I agree with you." Sky said with a plain smirk on his face.
"Thank you." Jack said angrily; "Now who is Squad Leader?"
"Its the stupid one in Red." Lexi replied hotly.
"In case you didn't understand," Sky said, patting Jack on the shoulder; "That'd be you."
"What's going on?" Z asked as troops rushed past them and the sirens wailed in their ears. The New Policemen got uniforms as well, but Lexi refused to wear hers and stuck to her Ninja Uniform.
"It's Code 5." Sky said shortly.
"Is that bad?" Z asked.
"Put it this way," Bridge stated; "Code 3 is bad."
"Where is the A Squad-" Syd began to ask, getting cut off.
"What's happening Commander?" Sky asked.
"A full scale attack has been launched against our Federation in Helix Nebula." Cruger explained; "Emperor Gruumm, the leader of the Troobian Empire" A hollogram of the Emperor showed in front of them.
"Ew, a serious contender for one of those makeover shows." Syd grimaced, looking at the skeleton-like man.
"He's merciless and will stop at nothing to conquer what he sets out to." Cruger continued.
"The Helix Nebula." Sky nodded.
"That is just the beginning." Cruger stated; "He's after this Galaxy."
"You sound like you know him." Z said to the commander.
"Our paths have crossed before." Cruger nodded, rubbing his chin in thought; "I've sent the A Squad to the frontline of the Helix Nebula."
"A Squad's gone?" Sky asked in disbelief.
"But, who's gonna protect Earth?" Z wondered.
"You." Cruger said plainly; "With Cadet Landers as your leader. Now where is he?"
Jack walked in wearing PJs, yawning widely. It took Lexi all she had to stop herself from punching the boy. He groaned; "What's with all the alarms?"
"Oh nothing much." Syd shrugged; "Just an alien invasion of Galactic proportions."
Jack nodded, yawning again. Cruger continued talking; "Now that A Squad is on mission, you're going to have to take the responsibility of leading the B Squad very seriously. Do you understand?"
"Yeah." Jack snapped tiredly, taken aback; "Okay I get it."
"Carry on." Cruger said, and they dispursed.
"Uh, later guys." Boom said as they walked away.
"This is so not what I signed up for." Jack huffed.
"Why are you bummed out?" Boom asked confused; "I would be Psyched to be Red Ranger."
"You'd be Psyched if you were the Pink Ranger." Jack pointed out.
Boomer laughed, but then nodded as realization hit; "True. But Red is the big cheese, head honcho, large and in charge! You get to tell the others what to do... and then they do it."
That pleased Jack as he crossed his arms, smiling in thought; "Really?"
The door slid open, but Syd thought she was in the wrong place; "My bad, wrong room." She turned and left the room, but then realized it was her room as she got back inside; "This is my room." Everything was moved; "My bed, you've moved my bed. What have you done with my stuff?" Then she saw her precious stuffed animal by the culprit and walked forward to pick it up; "Oh no, Peanuts!" She looked at Z and tried getting her attention; "Excuse me," but the girl didn't respond; "Excuse me," no answer again, "Excuse me, I want an explanation!"
"Can't hear you." Z replied, reading a magazine while laying upside down on her bed; "Chill til' the song's over, kay?"
"Not kay." Syd glared as she turned off the music source.
"Take your things and tasteless trash-dumpster boots out of my room." Syd said, tossing Z's shoes aside.
"Here's a news flash for you missy, the Big Blue Dog says it's not just your room anymore." Z smirked; "Lexi's the only one getting a single room because she requested training equipment."
"What?" Syd asked, deadpan.
"Uh what's going on here?" Jack asked, entering the room.
"Just a little discussion between roomies." Z answered, knowing it bothered Syd.
"I'm not your roomie." Syd said as sweetly as she could manage.
"You two can work out your little spat while you... clean up this mess." he said, disgusted. The girls looked at each other and he spat; "On the double."
"Very funny Jack." Z said sarcastically.
"He's not smiling." Syd said in a hushed, defeated tone.
"According to the Ranger Academy handbook, section 5 article 3.4 when the Red Ranger gives a command that command should be unquestioned and obeyed by all other Rangers."
"It is what the handbook says." Syd said to her new 'roomie'.
"Oh come on, you're not buying this whole 'the Red Ranger is the boss of all of us' thing, are you?" Z asked, confused.
"I want it done before training." Jack said, as if she hadn't spoken. He smiled and said; "Have a nice day", before leaving.
"What a jerk." both girls said, before turning to each other and laughing.
Cruger walked through the halls of SPD but paused at the door of the lounge, seeing Jack relax, and he walked into the room; "Cadet, I may be wrong but isn't there a training exercise with B Squad right now?"
Jack sat up right away; "Yes sir, I sent them on a 5 mile run through the mud swamp, thought it would get them in shape."
Cruger nodded; "The mud swamp's a tough course. And you're getting in shape by... reading a comic book?"
"Well, uh, as Red Ranger I made the executive decision that I needed some me time." Jack replied after laughing nervously and fiddling with the comic book. A Cadet came in with Jack's uniform nicely cleaned and walked away but was stopped by the Red; "Uh Cadet, could you please wash them in cold water next time, it keeps the Reds bright."
"I see you've discovered that being a leader has its privileges." Cruger said, hiding the disappointment the best he could.
"Yeah, who know." Then a female Cadet walked in, carrying a tray of snacks; "Ah, thank you Cadet, right here will due."
"Uh, don't forget sir you promised to go over those close contact defensive drills with me later." the girl said slowly.
"A promise is a promise..." Jack said to make her happy. He turned to the dog; "Tough being boss, ain't it C?"
"This is not fun." Z groaned as they continued crawling in the dirt.
"Hey, Ninja training is so much harder than this, so I'd suck it up and keep going if I were you." Lexi laughed.
They stood as soldiers in front of Jack, as he relaxed on a lounge chair; "Hey! Welcome back! I didn't think you guys would be done so soon. How'd it go?"
"How does it look like it went?" Syd asked, shaking mud off herself.
"A little mud never hurt anyone." Jack told her sternly.
"Actually, thats not true." Bridge argued; "My uncle Bernie got a serious infection by sticking mud clumps up his nose."
"He stuck mud up his..." Z began, but shook it off; "Nevermind." She turned her attention back to her friend, scowling; "I thought you said you were gonna meet us out there."
"Hello, Red Ranger here." Jack said, and again it took everything Lexi had to not walk right up and slap him in the face; "Think I was just laying around and reading comic books all day?"
"Wouldn't surprise me." Sky smirked; "You already missed weapons class and a surveillance seminar."
Jack stood up to scold Sky; "I didn't realize it was Blue Ranger's job to keep tabs on my where-abouts."
Sky didn't speak whatsoever, but Lexi did instead; "It wasn't Blue's job, it's Orange's. I don't care if you're Red or White or Purple. If we go through this, you go through it too."
"Okay, okay, I get that the mud run wasn't very fun and as expected you guys are a little edgy... tell you what, take 5 minutes to get cleaned up before Martial Arts class." Jack smiled, without sympathy. They looked at him; "What? Go. Hey, I'm trying to cut you guys some slack." No one moved; "Fine, we'll do it the other way. I'm Red Ranger, and that's an order."
"Alright, that's it!" Lexi snapped, it took Syd, Z, and Bridge to hold her back this time but she shook them off and walked away.
"He's got no business being the Red Ranger." Sky muttered to himself.
"I heard that." Jack snapped, Sky turned around and walked up to his leader again; "Think you can do a better job?"
"Yeah." Sky nodded; "But Cruger picked you. You may be wearing Red, but you're not a leader."
"Rangers, you must use the Delta Runners." Cruger said; "It's time you moved to Active Zord status."
"Woah, Zords, like actual Zords?" Bridge asked in awe.
"Alright, I'm a little freaked." Z said in admittance.
"You've been trained. You can do it Rangers." Kat told them.
"No sweat guys, just follow me." Jack instructed them calmly.
"Wait." Cruger cut in; "Before you go- do you have full confidence in Jack Landers as your leader? If you have problems, speak now."
"Sir." Sky answered.
"Figures. He's just jealous because he's not the Red Ranger." Jack smiled bitterly.
"Nothing personal Jack." Syd said, catching his attention.
"I like you as a friend and all, but as a leader..." Bridge started, but then got nervous; "Did I ever tell you that I really like your dreads?"
"This is unreal." Jack scoffed; "I can be a good leader, tell 'em Z."
"It's the truth Jack, sorry." Z shrugged.
"Lexi?" Cruger asked.
The Redhead looked at Jack with anger in her eyes; "I've been on two teams, and yes we've had problems but not one of my leaders has ever been ignorant, careless, dictators. You are no leader, I'm a better leader than you in my sleep."
"The team has spoken." Cruger said broadly, he turned to the Red Ranger; "You're relieved of Command and Ranger status." The others, besides Lexi and Sky began complaining; "I've made my decision." Jack took the badge morpher and handed it to the dog.
Suddenly the sirens rang, and Cruger nodded to them; "Go Rangers."
"SPD, Emergency!" They slid down chutes, finding themselves in Delta Runners.
"Morphers in ignition mode." Sky commanded as they activated the Zords.
"Nice." Z commented.
"Lets roll out!" Syd shouted, and so they did. The Zords were as following- a red cop car, a blue gyro-copter, a green truck, a yellow armored truck, a pink buggy, and an orange fighter jet. They rolled out in their vehicles, trying to stop the robot seperately. Each one of their attempts failed, even Lexi who just flew around the robot several times.
"It's not working!" Bridge shouted unhappily; "We don't have a plan!"
Just then Jack rode on down in his little cop car; "I do!"
"What is he doing?" Syd demanded as strange things started coming out of the car.
"Leave it to me!" Jack said, and he took the pink vehicle and yellow vehicle.
"Lets get in there Sky!" Bridge said as the robot started shooting at Jack and the girls.
"I'm all over it!" Sky replied, and the two began shooting.
"Hey, don't forget me!" Lexi laughed as she joined in on the fire.
"Rangers, you must work as a team. Combine the Delta Runners to Form the Delta Squad Megazord." Cruger commanded.
"Ready team?" Jack asked.
"Yes sir!" they all chorused. They formed the Megazord, Bridge and Sky as legs, Syd and Z as arms, Jack in control, and Lexi just extra armour.
"Finally we got some Megazord action!" Lexi gushed excitedly. It took them a while to destroy the monster, for the gun was stolen and they were forced to use a sword and got the gun back while using the sword to slash at the robot. They aimed the gun at the robot, not knowing it was empty.
"Six!" Lexi shouted.
"Five!" cried Syd.
"Four!" Z yelled.
"Three!" Bridge called.
"Two!" Sky exclaimed.
"One!" Jack hollered. The robot was destroyed, but the one controling it was still free.
"I got away!" the monster said thankfully, but he heard them jump out behind him; "Huh?"
"Think again!" Jack said.
"Who's gonna stop me? The monster grumbled.
"One! SPD Red Ranger!" Jack said.
"Two! SPD Blue Ranger!" Sky said.
"Three! SPD Green Ranger!" Bridge said.
"Four! SPD Yellow Ranger!" Z said.
"Five! SPD Pink Ranger!" Syd said.
"Six! SPD Orange Ranger!" Lexi said.
"Space Patrol Delta!" They all shouted.
"Defenders of Earth." Jack continued.
"You don't scare me!" The monster snapped.
"Let me do this guys, I owe you." Jack announced. They all ran forward anyway, blasting and slashing at the monster; "Alright, listen up! If Gruumm wants this planet, he's gonna have to go through us." He whipped out his morpher; "SPD Morpher! Judgement mode!" The Morpher went back and forth again, then stopped at the Giant Red X of Doom; "Guilty!" Jack put his two guns together and shot at the monster, and then turning him into a card.
"So you're all sure you trust Cadet Landers to lead your team?" Cruger asked his B Squad Rangers.
"I admit, his ego got a little out of control... but, deep down, Jack's a good guy." Z nodded.
"Plus we couldn't have made the Megazord without him." Syd added.
"That's true, or we'd be walking around without a head." Bridge nodded.
"And what about you two, Sky and Lexi?" Cruger asked, but no direct response came from either.
Sky and Lexi watched as Jack finished his punishment, the mud swamp, all alone. Sky nodded his head, probably deciding he could give this kid a chance. Lexi on the other hand walked until she could see directly into her leader's eyes; "Next time I won't get you kicked off the team, I'll kick your butt and give it to you on a silver platter. YOU HEAR ME RED?"
"Yes ma'am." Jack nodded, cowering in fear. Sky couldn't help but chuckle lightly, and Lexi gave him a high five.
