Chapter Four
It took Kimberly and Tommy less than 15 minutes for them to reach the Youth Center from Angel Grove High. They walked in a comfortable silence, not wanting to discuss the Green Ranger's dream at the moment. And when they arrived at the Youth Center, they were happy to spot Trini and Billy seated at a table close to the juice bar where the Blue Ranger had just finished showing the Yellow Ranger his new device.
"Hey, guys," Billy said as soon as he spotted the Pink and Green Rangers.
Hey," everyone else greeted.
"What's up?" the Blue Ranger inquired watching Kim take a seat next to Trini.
The Green Ranger continued to stand.
"Homework," he answered with a sigh. "I have to write a 500 word essay on a subject that interests me."
"Hmm…" Billy said thoughtfully. "What are you going to write about?"
"Mythology," Tommy replied.
Before anyone could inquire more on the assignment, Bulk and Skull entered the room drawing the attention to them.
"Are you sure we're gonna find the Power Rangers' secret I.D. with that thing?" Skull asked
.
"Of course, we are you dolt," Bulk answered his friend. "I got it at this spy shop man. You know it, it measures high energy levels like a, like a radar detector. The Power Rangers gotta be loaded with energy and this thing's gonna help us find them."
He fiddled with the detector and it began to react.
"Bulky, it's beeping like crazy. The Power Rangers gotta be around here." Skull stated excitedly.
Thinking quickly, Billy activated his own device, that just so happened to be an electronic scrambler.
"Gather around everyone," Bulk said trying to get everyone in the Youth Center attention. "We are about to find out who the Power Rangers really are."
Everyone watched as Billy's disrupter lead the comedic duo to Ernie, the Juice Bars owner. Everyone laughed as Ernie made fun of the duo, embarrassing the duo.
Jason, who had been working out with Zack, approached the other four Power Rangers.
"I hope you guys didn't spend a lot of money on that thing," he joked at the two bullies.
Turning serious the Pink Ranger leaned in closer to her friends.
"Guys, that was a close call," she whispered so that they were the only ones who could hear her.
"Now I know my scrambling device works," Billy said turning his invention off.
"Nice going Billy," Trini congratulated giving the Blue Ranger a high five. "Now they're really confused."
Tommy chuckled before he remembered he was supposed to be researching his paper now. He silently cursed his forgetfulness.
"Oh, I better run guys. I gotta make the library before it closes," Tommy said.
The other Rangers said their farewells as the Green Ranger left the Youth Center.
