A/N I do not own Power Rangers

The Watchful Eye

The Rangers had their hands full. The Nighlok was certainly terrifying the people. This was no ordinary Nighlok, he looked like a bunch of balloons! When the Rangers arrived, Mike rested his sword on his shoulder and said, "Hey Kev, get that pea shooter of yours out and take out those balloons!"

Jayden turned towards the Nighlok and said, "Enough Nighlok, you have worn out your welcome and we have come to send you home!"

The Nighlok just laughed and pointed a finger at some people huddling at the corner of a building, each person then rose up off the ground in a balloon! "WHAT?" The Rangers all cried out.

The people started screaming and moving and a balloon popped and a woman started falling, Mike ran and caught her before she hit the ground. The rest of the Rangers ran and attacked the Nighlok, but more people were in balloons and more balloons were popping as the people struggled. Mike was catching them as he could, "HEY, I NEED SOME HELP OVER HERE!" He called. Antonio saw this, and hurried over and started catching people. Then Jayden noticed that Mike and Antonio needed all their help.

But luck was on their side as the Nighlok said, "OH! You are lucky today, I am drying out and need to be refreshed, but I will be back!" He slithered through a gap, and the rest of the Rangers ran to help save the people.

Back at the Shiba house, the rangers all were exhausted. Muscles were sore and they were worn out from running and catching all the people. "I hope it is a LONG time before that Nighlok returns," Mia moaned as she rubbed her aching arms.

"Me too," Emily agreed with her pink friend.

"You will have to think of a way to beat this Nighlok before he returns." Ji told them, as if they had not already known that.

"Okay," Jayden started. "We need to figure out how to beat a balloon." So they all sat there and thought and thought, and finally Kevin said, "We could pop it."

They all laughed, but Emily says, "No wait. If we could get the people to hold on to a post or something like that then the balloon would not be able to get them to rise, and we have to be ready to pop the balloon before it gets to anyone."

"That sounds great Em," Mike agreed. "But we need to actually put this menace out of commision."

The rangers still thought and thought, and Antonio was thinking, then his eyes widened and he thought, the pier, I bet she was there and I wasn't OH NO! "Hey guys, I gotta go. I'll be back, but gotta go." He rushed out of the house and over to the pier.

Earlier while the Rangers were battling the Nighlok, the strikingly beautiful girl was at the pier. She looked all around but no Antonio. She saw his fishing things, but he was nowhere to be seen. She walked up to another fisherman, "Excuse me sir." She flashed him a smile. "Have you seen Antonio?" as she pointed to his things.

The man looked at her and then towards where she was pointing, "Ah yes, 'Tonio. He was here early, and then he got a call and rushed off. He does that often, but he always comes back, but usually not gone this long." He shrugged his shoulders and the girl turned around.

He always comes back, the man told her. So she decided to sit down and wait. She waited and waited, and then thought, I'll try my hand at fishing! So she sat on his cart and took a pole and a worm and casted her line in the water. She had caught 2 fish and the nice man next to her she had talked with took them off the line for her, she just could not bring herself to do it. About then Antonio came down the pier and saw her there, the sun was fading and she was sitting silhouetted by it, he was amazed with how pretty she was. Wow, he thought, she waited for me. As he got closer he saw she was fishing! She felt someone and turned to see Antonio standing there smiling!

She started to cast her line again, but felt a tug and so did Antonio! This time she had Caught her Gold! As the two were smiling at each other they failed to see that they were being watched. Who could be interested in a fisherman and a farmer?
