Me: Took shorter than I expected but chapter five is ready for liftoff (stands with hand in the air)
Jade: That makes no sense
Me: (face goes blank then I sit down)
Adam: well the next chapter is ready for its readers, oh by the way my daughter has to clean her room one of these days.
Jade: DAD!
Adam: (smirks) (looks at me) Chris you never answered my question last chapter.
Me: Huh? Oh yeah (tease) I'm not telling yet! (normal) Ok on with this chapter "Battle on the street"
--------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter five "Battle on the Street"
It was morning, the Angel Grove sun peered through the checkered curtains of a small room. The room had light green walls with posters and anime pictures on them. There was a dark colored carpet on the floor. The furniture consisted of a desk that was piled with schoolbooks and papers, a chair in front of the desk that had a backpack with the initials "JSP" on it hanging off of it, open. There was also a nightstand next to a bed with red sheets, black and white comforter, a couple stuffed animals and pillows where a dark haired teen lie sleeping, half out of the covers. Across from the desk was a dresser with some of the drawers part open and a closet. The closet was closed shut. The door to get into the room was across the teen's bed, it was also closed. Bookshelves were hanging on the walls with books, stuffed animals, action figures, karate and soccer trophies, pictures and a bunch of other odds and ends.
A woman opened the door to the teen's room she had narrow brown eyes, short black hair that was starting to grey, she was a in her fifties, the women went over to the bed.
"Jade, time to get up or your going to be late." Jade felt her grandmother shake her.
Jade slowly opened her eyes and pushed her dark hair out of them, Then she looked at the clock.
"Dammit!!!" She exclaimed. Her narrow blue eyes widened. The fourteen year old girl jumped out of her bed, in a pair of shorts and a t shirt.
"Where's dad?" Jade asked, as she quickly tried to figure out what she was going to wear to school today.
"He had to be at work early, he didn't think you would want to get up at 5:30 am"
Jade finished putting together her outfit for school which consisted of Black pants, red t-shirt with a small rabbit head on front and all over the back, along with her black slip-ons with pink, grey, and white stars and white ankle socks.
"I guess that makes sense" Jade said.
Her grandmother walked out of the bedroom and Jade quickly changed into her clothes, brushed her mid neck length dark hair then rushed around the house getting her stuff ready.
"Jade before you go grab a pop tart or something, your not going to school hungry" A man said. "I'll take you to school."
The man had blue-grey eyes, and brown graying hair, he was tall almost the same height as Jade's father he was getting ready to go to his work. It was Jade's grandfather. (Me: ok people if I described Adam's father wrong I apologize I think I missed that episode L )
Jade put on her backpack, grabbed a chocolate pop tart and then got into her grandfather's car and headed to school.
"Thanks gramp" Jade waved as she ran to get into school.
The teen was already late. "I knew I should of set the alarm clock" she mumbled to herself.
She glanced at the clock in the deserted hallway of Angel Grove high. Everyone was already in class, it was beginning of second period, she snuck into her Math classroom and sat down at her usual seat, in the back of the room. A few of the kids in the class glanced at her, the math instructor seemed oblivious to the fact that Jade was late. Probably because she was never late to classes. He was writing a math problem on the blackboard.
"Alright" he turned around. "Who can answer this problem?"
--------------------------------------------
School ended, quickly, and Jade had loads of homework to do.
She tried to do it in study hall but she spent most of that class wondering where Gina, Alanna, Aiden, Colton and Gabe were. She hadn't seen them since lunch which was strange because they couldn't all have gotten sick. She remembered that she had been sitting with them when all of a sudden they went quiet.
"Hey guys, we have to get going" she remembered Colton saying.
At that same time the four others touched their right ear. Jade of course was confused.
"Jade, we will see you later alright" Gina said to her.
"Um…ok" Jade still didn't understand.
Gabe gave Jade a noogie, Aiden waved, Alanna patted her shoulder. And they left. That was the last time she saw them that day.
Her dad came to pick her up. Jade put her bag in the back seat of the Black car then climbed into the front seat, all in silence. As they started to drive back home Adam became worried about his daughter, she was never this silent before.
"Kiddo," He stopped at a red light and turned to Jade, he lightly touched her shoulder. Jade turned to him.
"Are you alright?" Adam asked. "Did something happen at school?'
Jade was silent, for a moment.
"Dad…" She started finally but was broken off by a battle that took place in the middle of the street not too far away.
The father and daughter both quickly shot their heads over to the battle, in curiosity. Adam pulled over so they could get a better view.
A large creature was there it looked like a large snake with two rabbit legs toward the back of it's body. A metallic green color with black dots on it's back. Connected by thin lines that someone looked like they had been playing "connect the dots" on the creature's back. The dots resembled a diamond surrounded by a circle with a snake going through it.
The large creature was staring down at a group of humanoid creatures that were color coated red, yellow, green, blue, and pink. What the humanoids looked like was quite similar of what Jade could see, from the distance she was at. Each one wore a horned helmet with a silhouette of a sort of creature on the side.
She couldn't quite make out what each silhouette was, she wasn't close enough, but her curiosity got the best of her. The teen got out of the car to get closer to the battle.
"Jade Savanna Park!" Adam called to his daughter.
Jade didn't hear him for she had already run about 30 feet down the street. Adam pulled over his car and shut it off, taking the keys then locking the doors as he attempted to run after his fourteen year old daughter who had finally stopped to stare at the giant monster. Adam stopped and put his hand on her shoulder to catch his breath.
"Jade what was that all about" He said strictly.
"I wanted to get a closer look at the Battle" Jade answered.
"Do you know how dangerously close you could have gotten?" He scolded her.
------------------------
"Demon spirit force you cannot defeat me!" The creature boomed looking at the humanoids.
"We can and we will" The one in red yelled
------------------------
Jade stared at the battle. "Demon Spirit Force?" She said to herself somewhat confused.
"They are Power Rangers" Adam said his tone of voice changing from scolding to somewhat in awe. Jade saw him smile as the battle went on.
Jade couldn't say another word 'Power Rangers' why did that sound so familiar.
On the other hand Adam Just watched, it had brought him back memories when he was a Power Ranger. Something he had never told Jade. He remembered the last time he held that broken Mastodon power coin in his hand:
Adam's memory
He had been helping Carlos train to build up his confidence one day when a bunch of Minions had attacked them. They had attempted to fight them off when Adam noticed Carlos was getting beat pretty badly. Adam went over to his book bag and pulled out the old broken morpher.
"No Adam it's too big of a risk!" Alpha 6 begged.
Adam didn't back down.
"Adam don't!" Carlos had yelled.
Adam didn't listen.
"It's Morphin Time" Adam yelled.
Both Alpha 6 and Carlos begged him not to morph continuously. But Adam yelled "Mastodon" and morphed anyway to fight off the minions. He told Carlos to get out of there but Carlos was worried that he'd be destroyed. Adam insisted on Carlos getting out of there telling him that he would be okay. The minions disappeared Carlos ran and Adam went to fight the monster.
"Just like old times" Adam remembered saying, then seconds later Adam felt himself loosing power. He was weak but he fought to keep his morphed form, and got beat up by doing so. It was Adam's stupidest decision.
He remembered being in the hospital for a couple days. Jade was only around 3 years old at the time.
End Memory
And that was the last time Adam held a Power Morpher in his hand.
"Take control of your demon spirits!" The one in yellow yelled.
The Battle started really heating up Jade noticed that the Power Rangers had taken control of animal shaped shadows that appeared from their heart to the sky and each spirit was black in color with red eyes. Eventually the black and red shadows took form and became an animal. The red one was a tiger, the yellow one took the shape of an eagle, the green one took the shape of a dragonfly, the blue one came out of the ocean as a shark, and the pink one was that of a fox. And each one fought the monster, but the monster had seemed to eye something else.
"JADE MOVE!" Adam yelled grabbing his daughter to get her out of the way. They both fell to the ground, some feet away.
Jade at first was a little annoyed then she noticed that right where she had been watching the battle just seconds ago the monster's tail had made an indent, that would have pummeled her flat to the ground if it wasn't for her father's quick actions.
The pink and green humanoids came over to Jade and Adam.
"Are you two alright?" The pink said to them.
"I'm fine, Jade are you alright?" Adam Said as the humanoid's helped them up.
Jade had a blank look on her face.
"I'm… Fine…" Jade said slowly. Her tone suddenly changed. "BUT THAT WAS AWESOME!" She said excited.
Adam sighed with relief. "We're not doing that again kiddo"
"Glad you two are alright" the green said.
Jade looked at the two humanoids curiously. "You two sound familiar…" She started. They looked at her and held their breaths.
