A/N : I do not own power rangers and its characters they belong to Saban and Disney
Hello there, it's been so long since I didn't upload any chapters of my story. I just realized that I haven't write for about two or three months! You know things happen--bad or nice. I've been enjoying my holiday in few places such as KL, Bali, Bogor, Bandung and Jakarta (that sounds not few) with my friends and family. Because I assume having vacation before going overseas for studying is indeed important, so after that I can only concentrate for later study :) So many things happen such as summer blockbuster screenings at theaters...you know transformers and harry potter half blood prince... I'm so excited. In the other hand, I also concern about bad things that currently have just happened such as MJ's death, Jakarta's bombing and canceled MU's tour to Indonesia. Well, I better let you guys to read my next chapter...
--A dark arrival
I took steps backwards as the dungeon's door was opened by a glossy black lightning. The being in front of me approched, "nice to meet you, old pal." My eyes were wide open. Beside of leaning forward to his side, I was walking my body away from him.
"You," I said in my mumble. "What brings you here?"
The spiky haired guy smirked. "I came here to save you." As he kept walkin towards me, I moved backwards—trying to stay away from him. "Here," he lifted up his index finger towards me, urged me to move closer.
I shook my head in disagree. Suddenly, those arms pushed me roughly So I stood close to the well-build latino's body. "Do you want to live?" he said between his teeth.
"I do." I stated clearly, "But, not with you. Not with the pshycos, not under the dark specter's power either." I kept walking backwards until I realized that I had already stood in the corner of the dungeon—means no way to escape. His rough arms then moved onto my shoulders and held 'em tight. As he was tring to reach my handcuffs, I moved my hands away from him.
For the second time he smirked. "C'mon."
"NO!" I shouted at him. I glared at him fiercely.
"Listen," he said. "All of those things which happened that night, we won't do it to you. You don't need to be worry. No removing. No destructing. You'll be safe with us."
I clenched my teeth, " how can I trust you?"
It was silent for a moment, but we both still glared at each others. When I began to ask, "How did you get here? How did you pass the security?"
"What a stu..." just before he took his gun out of his pocket, I flew him kicks. Twice. Then, the guns dropped to the ground.
"You're too bad to fight against a handcuffed person."I pinned my foot onto his chest, "my feet are even better than you."
He growled and twisted my feet so that I fell to the ground too—just a few inches from the gun. Unfortunately, before my hand reached the gun, his foot then pinned my hand back. I growled in pain. Later, he throwed so many kicks onto my guts until I even moved hardly. I just layed on the ground powerless.
When I looked up, I saw a gun—a different one was being pointed at me. "Stay here? Gimme yes or no."
I was to busy bracing those pains in my guts. It hurt—painful hurt. Things were just getting worse, my vision was becoming blurry and my hearing was just as bad as my vision. I didn't catch what he was saying well.
"I take it as a 'YES'" that was all I heard from him. Just before the trigger was pulled out. The being felt onto the floor hard. With my blurry vision, what I saw was two humans fighting each others. One with black short hair and the others with longer and brightly colored hair. They were wrestling each other.
As they were wresting, I tried to take the gun which was placed few inches beside me. I dragged my self, and I succeed. After my vision was getting better a bit, I put the aim on the short haired boy.
"Bastard." It was the last word I said after I pulled the trigger and fainted back onto the ground.

"Ash"
I woke up in a medical centre. The first thing I saw was Andros who sat next to my bed. "Do you feel alright."
After I realized that I catch a sight and voice of him really well, I convinced, "Never been this good before." I jumped out of the bed. "Where is the black ranger?" I asked.
"He's right there." As Andros turned his face to the left.
I walked to the occupied ward in my left. I saw the black ranger's demorphed body laid powerless on that. What surprised me was He also was drugged.
"Okay, it just to make him stay calm." Andros said.
"What are you going to do with him?" I asked.
" We are going to remove the soul and bring the body back to the real Carlos inside." He answered as he glanced at his best friend's powerless body. He sighed.
"Why don't you take my soul either? You know, I still occupy Ashley's body. Last time I fainted, why didn't you drug me and reject me?"
Andros laughed a little,"do you want that?"
I lifted my shoulder, "I am just asking. Just want to know if you are a tricky person."
"Maybe, I am a bad guy in your eyes but I never break a deal or a promise." He said. "I am professional."
I giggled, "so I guess you always picked up Ashley on time in every date. She has never been dissapointed before, hasn't she?"
"never," he answered back then we gigled. Realizing, that the medical staffs need us to quiet down—we shut up. "Speaking about promise, KingWon wants me to bring you to him on the command center now."
"Oh, this isn't over yet" I placed my hand on my forehead. "Do you think we should leave... now?"
"Of course, "he said, "be a professional,"
"Ah," KingWon appeared as soon as the door in front of us being opened. Andros smiled to him in respect, while I didn't make any responds with my face.
"Nice to meet you again, KingWon. I guess you want to meet Ashley." Andros said.
"Ms. Hammond?" he asked to Andros. I believed he avoided to call me with my first name.
"Yes," Andros turned to me with a weird expression. Funny, I believed Andros felt something unsual too when someone called me with my last name. Too formal. "Ms. Hammond." He repeated with a little smirk on his face. I think he teased me.
I stepped forward to KingWon and lifted my chin. "Is there anything you want to say to me?" I asked. Okay, I think KingWon wanted me to leave or he had told the guards who stood behind Andros and I to remove my soul from the body—In the other words, I would be destroyed very soon. I just had to wait.
"So, Ms Hammond. I'm just about to set you out of the guilty charge. I'm also sorry for the things that I—we've done to you lately." He explained as my face turning red. "Instead of putting you on the dungeon, I ask you to be in the mission of saving human existence in our galaxy. So, I hope Andros and you can coorporate together."
The conversation ended as smile was blooming on both Andros' face and mine.
