[Chapter 22: Wormhole!]
Power Ranger Ninja Storm Freak: I thought that I let you know that I combined Part 1 and 2 of Thunder Storm, the team up between Ninja Storm and Dino Thunder.
...My Line...
SPD: 2025!
"Power Rangers, report to delta command immediately."
In now time at all 6 teens ran inside a complex state of the art command center where two adults, a dog, and a cat where standing.
"What's going on?" An African-American teen asked.
"Grumm is gone and so is his ship," the dog answered.
"Yes," another teen said, "he's retreated."
"We WON," the African-American told the others.
One of the three girls looked at the two adults while the others cheered.
"I don't think it's that easy guys," she spoked up.
"Enough," the dog told them, "Cadet Fernandez-Mercer is right. It's not that easy."
"Hello, hello, hello," the African-American said as he looked at the dog, "it's celebration time, you said it yourself, Grumm is gone."
"Yes, he's gone," the dog agreed, "but I know my enemy. He doesn't retreat."
"Commander," one of the adults spoked up making the dog to look over at her, "I've found something."
"Mom?" the girl asked as she walked up to the woman.
"I was searching the far reaches for the nebula when I found this," the woman told them before showing them.
"A wormhole?" the Commander asked.
"Yes," she answered, "a temporal wormhole. And there are traces of Troobian energy inside."
"Sounds like retreating to me," the African-American said.
"That's what he wants us to think?" the Commander told them.
"Sir, where's he going?" the other teen asked.
"More important question," the girl said, "what time is he going to."
Reefside High 2004!
Jessica was laying next to Trent on the ground while the White Ranger was drawing Kira and Ethan while she did her homework. Kira was playing her guitar while Ethan was playing a Gameboy which made Jessica roll her eyes.
"Great," Ethan complained looking up from his Gameboy at Kira, "I was just about to defeat the dreaded Maxodrone, when his evil ship comes along and destroys all that I've done! I don't believe it."
"It's just a game Ethan," Kira told him.
"Yeah," Trent agreed.
"You're acting as if it's real," Jessica added.
"What if it is real?" Ethan asked her, "what if the game is actually an ancient diary telling me about a real event that happened in a distant galaxy far, far away?"
"Ethan, your mind is the only thing that's far, far away," Kira answered.
"Ooooh," Trent and Jessica both said with a wince.
Just then a soccer ball rolled up to Ethan who stopped it before they looked up to see Conner.
"What's up, guys?" Conner asked.
"Ethan's just giving us a history lesson about something he learned on his hand-held geek boy," Jessica answered.
"Alright, alright, so it's no intergalactic history," Ethan said.
"Finally," both Kira and Jessica said at the same time.
"But, it could be the future," Ethan went on.
This made Jessica face palm at Ethan's mind.
"Remember it's just a game," Conner told him.
Just then come kind of ship flew over head making the students, but the 4 of them to scream and ran back into the school. The 4 of them watched as it flew away at a fast pace and with one look at each other they all took off to look for Tommy.
Newtech City 2025!
"A wormhole is a thin tube of space time connecting distant reaches of the universe," Doctor Kat Manx explained while she, Commander Doggie Cruger, Jessica Fernandez-Mercer, and her Husband; Trent Fernandez-Mercer stood before the Red, Green, Yellow, and Black Rangers. "It could provide the possibility of time travel."
"Einstein's theory of relativity," Bridge, the Green SPD Ranger said.
"Correct," Jessica agreed before turning to the blue dog next to her, "Commander."
"We believe that Grumm has become frustrated with the resistance SPD is showing," Commander Cruger explained which draw attention to himself. "And has decided to take the Terror and his battle into the past where victory will be certain."
"We can't just let him do that," Z, the Yellow Ranger said.
"We won't," Cruger assured her, "we'll go after him."
"Into the wormhole?" Terra, the Black Ranger asked.
"Yes," Cruger answered, "but I'm sending just the four of you. I can't leave the present unprotected. Say your goodbyes and report to delta launch in five minutes."
The four of them saluted before Jack, the Red Ranger, and Z walked away leaving just Terra and Bridge behind though the Black Ranger walked up to the two adults.
"Sir," Bridge said, "when you say your good-byes, do you mean say good-bye as in see you later or do you mean say good-bye as good-bye?" Terra and the others all looked at Bridge in confusion. "What don't answer that."
They all watched him leave the Command Center before Terra turned back to the two adults.
"Be careful T," Trent told her as he hugged her.
"I well Dad," Terra stated as she returned the hug.
"Listen to Jack and you'll be fine," Jessica was next to say when she hugged Terra next.
"Aw, but Mom, I whether listen to Z," Terra pretended to protest as she hugged her back making Jessica laughed as she let Terra go while Trent was smirking as he stood next to her. "I know. Jack is the Red Ranger."
"Good," Trent said with a nod.
"He's no Conner, Nick, Mack, Casey, or Jayden though," Jessica told Trent making him laugh.
Terra laughed before she once again saluted Cruger and then running out to catch up to Jack, Z, and Bridge.
Reefside High 2004!
The 5 out of 6 Rangers where tracking up to Tommy's home so they could talk to Tommy.
"Okay, next time you predict the future like this, could you at least make me a pop star?" Kira asked.
"I didn't know it was gonna come true," Ethan answered with a smile.
"We've got to find Dr O," Trent told them.
Before all 5 of them noticed Zeltrax with Tyrannodrones.
"Well, at least you've found me instead," Zeltrax told them.
"At least it's a familiar face," Conner stated.
"Yeah great," Ethan groaned.
SPD Space Shuttle 2005!
"Last chance," Jack told them, "anyone want to turn back?" Bridge, Z, and Terra all looked at each other not at all answering Jack. "All right let's go."
Jack quickly sped into the wormhole before the other three could change their minds.
Reefside High 2004!
"Rangers, we fight again," Zeltrax said.
Right before the 5 rangers could do anything Zeltrax was tooken up into the ship that they had seen earlier that day.
"Now there's something you don't see every day," Conner stated as he looked at the others.
The 5 of them started walking again after what just happened needing to get to Tommy's place and quick.
"Wonder what they want with Zeltrax," Trent finally spoked up.
"Does it really matter?" Kira asked, "hopefully they'll take him into space and sell him for scrap metal."
"In other words it's all good," Ethan agreed, "Zeltrax is gone and so are they."
"Yeah," Conner agreed with him, "but, they aren't."
All 5 of them stopped when they saw a ship that had S.P.D on the side and out walked four teens and three of them where wearing weird clothing.
"Conner, Kira, Ethan, Jessica, nice to see you guys again!" Jack said as he lead the other three over to them, "you must be Trent."
Trent looked at them confused, but it was the dark haired girl that got all their attention.
"That girl looks a lot like you both,," Kira gasp in shock as she looked at Trent and Jessica.
"Got that right," Ethan agreed.
"Huh?"
"What's going on here?" Jessica asked.
"What she said," Conner agreed with their Green Ranger.
Jack told them what they wanted to know before they went somewhere else to talk more about it.
"Okay, let me see if I've got this straight?" Ethan asked before he pointed at the new group of four that had appeared from the space shuttle a few feet behind them. "You guys are from the future and you're Power Rangers."
"And you're chasing an Emperor name Grumm who is trying to conquer the future Earth," Kira picked up for Ethan.
"And Grumm came to defeat the Earth now," Conner went on, "so in the future he would have already conquered it."
"And you know these guys because they were brought to the future and helped you out," Trent finished.
"Ok, let's go out on the limb here and say that your telling us the truth," Jessica said, "why don't we remember any of it?"
"Oh, I know," Bridge said as he walked forward, "we erased their memories because knowledge of the future would have a detrimental effect on it causing it not to happen in the way its supposed to happen with retracting it."
"What he say?" Kira asked them.
"We were hoping you could tell us," Z answered, "we've given up trying."
"He said that having knowledge of the future can cause curtain events to not happen leading a different future," Jessica explained this made everyone to look at her, "what?"
"How did you know that?" Conner asked.
"I was around Dustin for almost my whole life," Jessica answered, "and it's simple time travel knowledge."
"Even here she can understand him," Terra groaned.
"Huh?"
All four Dino Rangers looked at her confused making Z to smack the black haired girl on the back of the head. Just then they all heard a noise which made Jack to pull out his morpher to look at it.
"Krybots!" He told them, "I've got three separate readings!" Jack then glanced around, before turning to Dino Ranges. "You guys stay here, this our fight."
"Excuse me," Jessica spoked up as she walked forward, "not any more. Your Grumm has teamed up with our mortal enemy, Zeltrax!"
"That's right," Conner agreed with her, "you're fight is now our fight."
"Yeah," the other three agreed.
Newtech 2025!
"Oh no," Jessica breathed.
"What is it?" Cruger asked.
"This isn't good Doggie," Kat said as she turned around to look at him, "wormhole, it's closing."
Jessica was next to turn around.
"If their not back in three hours, they won't be coming back," Jessica finished for Kat.
Reefside 2004!
Jessica ran through a crowd of people where running away in her ranger form.
"I claim this place in the name of the Troobian Empire," an orange thing said.
"Not so fast," Jessica called, "Pumpkin head!" Jessica kicked the thing before landing on the ground again and then turned to face the alien. "Thundermax Sabra!"
Both of them started to fight though Sam was knocked to the ground once.
"Just give up."
"Now I'm mad," Jessica said before she flipped over his back before laying on the ground while her back and then held up her bow before pulling back the strings of the bow. "Fire!" The blast sent the orange head to the ground before he could harm her. The two of them where back at fighting again, but the Orange Head was able to send Sam to the ground. "Now I'm really mad." Jessica ran towards the Orange Head as he fired at her for it only not effective her. Jessica kicked the Orange Head sending him to the ground again, but he only got up before she pulled out her bow. "Time to say good bye." Jessica twirled in the air firing arrows after arrows at the Orange Head before landing on the ground. She turned around as her bow vanished. "See ya, don't want to be ya."
Newtech 2025!
"The wormhole is closing," Cruger told the Blue, Pink, and Omega Rangers, "I need to go after the Rangers and warn them"
The Blue Ranger stepped forward
"I'll go with you, sir!" He said
"I'll go too," the Pink Ranger second.
"No," Cruger told them with a shake of his head, "I need you here in case the unthinkable happens."
"Sir, if you go back and we stay here, and Grumm wins," the Blue Ranger told him, "then being here would be unnecessary! There won't be a here."
"He's right sir," Kat agreed.
"Alright then," Cruger agreed, "well all go."
The Blue Ranger nodded before falling back in line.
Reefside 2004!
"Hey, guys wait up!" Jessica called as she and Bridge hurried to catch up with the other Dino Rangers, Z, Terra, and Jack.
Conner turned to them and made sure that his fellow Dino Ranger wasn't hurt.
"Any luck?" Conner asked.
"Just ran into a couple of Krybots," Bridge answered, "we took care of them."
"It was kinda like fighting Zeltrax," Jessica groaned making them laugh.
"Let me guess?" Terra asked, "a Zeltrax 2.0?"
"Yeah," Jessica answered, "how did you know?"
"I know all about your time on this Team," Terra answered with a smile.
"Oh."
"Anyways," Bridge said with with a laugh, "you?"
"No," Z answered, "nothing. Which doesn't make any sense cause the Troobian Energy is off the chart."
Just then they heard an explosion before Zeltrax come into view landing on his back. He got back up before firing at Tommy who jumped to attack him.
"Black Ranger," Bridge said while looking at Jack.
"Time to take it to the next level," Tommy said before he charged in.
"Uh, guys," Jack said when spotted something, "I think we've got some more company."
They all turned around to see what he was talking a group of Robots and Tyrannodrones.
"Ok what are those?" Bridge asked as he looked at the Dino Rangers.
"Tyrannodrones," Jessica answered.
"Well, look on the bright side," Z spoke as she turned to her Dino counterparts, "it cant get any worse."
"You just had to say it," Terra groaned.
"Didn't they teach you that Rangers have the worst luck around?" Jessica asked when three monsters appeared.
"There's our enemy Comrades," one of them said.
"Guys, I think it's just got worse," Jack pointed out.
"Thank you, Captain Obvious," Jessica and Terra said at the same time.
"Ready?"
"This well be easy."
Tommy soon landed in front of them.
"Better late than never!" he nodded at his own team and the future team, "You guys ready?"
"Black Ranger," Jack said with a smile, "I've read all about you!"
Tommy nodded once.
"Time to go to work!" he stated
As Zeltrax regrouped in front of the army that continue to grow.
"Prepare to be defeated," Zeltrax told them, "you don't stand a chance!"
"Ready?" Jack asked his friends
"Ready!"
Bridge, Terra, and Z nodded.
"SPD EMERGENCY!" they cried together before their Red, Yellow, Black, and Green spandex suits snapping into place while their rank numbers reflected in black on the left side of their uniform. "Space Patrol Delta!"
Conner smirked at them.
"Not bad," Conner told the, "check this out! Ready!"
"Ready!"
Kira, Jessica, Ethan, and Trent nodded as their Dino Bracelets flashed, turning into their morphers
"Dino Thunder! Power Up! HA!" With in now time at all all five of them where morphed into their Ranger forms. "Dino Power!"
"ATTACK!"
"Let's do it."
"Ok, give it all you got."
All 10 Rangers rushed in and the fight started with each of them take on a group. Just then 4 more Rangers from the future appeared to help, but they all ended up in a circle with the enemy surrounded them.
"This is your end Power Rangers," Zeltrax told them, "You are outnumbered! Look at the size of my Army!"
"It is true," Cruger agreed with a nod, "you have us outnumbered! But remember that it isn't about the size of the dog in the fight, its the size of the fight in the dog!" Before he raised his sword. "No one gets inside our circle."
"No one gets inside!'
"No one gets inside!"
"No one gets inside!"
"No one gets inside!"
"No one gets inside!"
"No one gets inside!"
"No one gets inside!"
"No one gets inside!"
"No one gets inside!"
"No one gets inside!"
"No one gets inside!"
"No one gets inside!"
"No one gets inside!"
"No one gets inside!"
"You got it Commander!" Jack agreed.
"ATTACK!"
The enemy charged in and attacked them, but where unable to get pass the Rangers and into the circle before the Rangers went off to fight their own battle. The Green, two Black, and one Shadow Rangers teamed up to take on Zeltrax. When Zeltrax fired at them they all jumped into the air holding their own kind of weapon before all of them started to fight Zeltrax together. Tommy sent Zeltrax into the air before Cruger sent him back to the ground where Jessica and Terra blasted him into a tree.
"That was great teamwork," Cruger told them all.
"This is no longer my battle, but I well soon see you again Black Ranger," Zeltrax said before he vanished.
With nod all five of them went to join their Team to face off against the last of the army.
"This is it Rangers," Cruger said.
"RIC," Jack called before tossing what looked like a bone into the air.
The Dino Rangers all watched as a robotic dog turned into a cannon of some kind.
"Canine Cannon!" The SPD Rangers shouted.
"Z-Rex Blaster!" the Dino Rangers shouted after they combined their weapons together.
"Ready?"
"Aim!"
"Fire!"
The two blast hit the remaining enemies sending them to the ground destroyed.
"Rangers!"
"Red!"
"Blue!"
"Green!"
"Yellow!"
"Pink!"
"Black!"
"Omega!"
"Shadow!"
"Tyranno!"
"Tricera!"
"Ptera!"
"Brachio!"
"Drago!"
"Para!"
"POWER RANGERS!" they all shouted as colors exploded behind them, "DEFENDERS OF EARTH!"
Reefside High!
"Well, guys," Jack said, "it's time to say good-bye."
"So soon?" Conner asked.
"Yeah," Kira agreed, "your time travels now right? No matter how long you stay, you can still get back at the same time."
Z and Amy shooked their heads.
"Not true, the Wormhole is closing...we gotta go," Z told them.
"I really wish I could stay," Bridge said, "I was just born last week; I could meet myself and become my own best friend." Everyone looked at him in confusion as he frowned. "Wait; what if I met myself, and didn't like me?"
"Well, we understand, you've gotta go," Trent said with a nod, "thanks guys, this is something I will always remember."
Sky turned to him.
"Unfortunately, we cant let you do that," he explained.
"You're gonna erase our memories, aren't you?" Kira asked
Syd and Terra nodded their heads.
"Yeah; we have too, knowledge of the future will only change what's meant to be," Syd explained
"For better or worse," Terra added, "its gotta be like this."
Cruger walked up to them with some kind of device.
"Say cheese," he told them before it went off, "schools over go home."
All five of them turned to walk away.
"Did that dog just talk?" Kira and Jessica asked.
"I think so," Conner answered them.
Jessica and Kira looked at each other before they walked away.
