The following day after Sora joined/returned to the team Eva walked down the street headed for school. Eva stopped when she saw Chris at the crosswalk heading the same way his nose in a comic book as usual.

Eva smiles and stands beside him "Good morning Chris." Eva chirps surprising the teen who drops his comic then turns and looks at Eva.

"O-Oh. Good morning Eva." He said as Eva kneels down picking up the comic and hands it back to him.

"Same. I'm sorry about surprising you." She said.

"It's alright. I just got a little to caught up in my comic." He says and Eva gives a small chuckle making Chris start to feel embarrassed as he blushed a bit.

"Sorry. I can't help but see a few things in common with me. You see you like comics, but whenever I feel like I don't want to draw or just want to relax I read manga." Eva explained to him and he nods.

"Cool. I don't know many girls that like manga or comics. Well unless it's shojo manga then there's plenty." Chris said as Eva smirks.

"I actually happen to prefer shonen a bit more over shojo." Eva said and both laugh a bit and walk headed for the school.

The two talked comparing the similarities and differences between comics and manga the subject eventually changing as they talked a bit about their home life. They came to the school and saw that most of the group was their and waiting except for Sora as well as Logan.

Jason waved at them "Hey love birds. How you doing up there?" he jokes causing the two to blush.

Jazz rolled her eyes "Lay off them Jason. I don't see you trying to put the moves on Eva anytime soon." Jazz said and the others laughed while Jason pouts.

"Yeah yeah laugh it up, but I bet I'll have a girlfriend before you have a boyfriend Jazz." Jason says with a smirk as Jazz glares.

AV sighs "Are you two really going to put a bet on that?" She asked as Sara rolled her eyes.

"Of course they will." Sara said in an annoyed huff.

"Okay. What's the bet?" Jazz said with a smirk arms crossed.

"If I get a girlfriend before you get yourself a boyfriend then you buy my lunch for the rest of the school year." Jason says.

"Then it will be the same if I win." Jazz retorts.

Marcus raised an eyebrow "And what if you two tie?" he asked causing both to look at him and laugh a bit.

"Oh come on. A tie in something like this? That's not going to happen." Jason said.

Jazz nods "Yeah. Hate to agree with him, but the only way a tie of all things could happen is if we end up dating each other." she said as Sora and Logan arrived.

"Sorry! I'm so sorry. I had to take care of little Rachel this morning." Sora said to them as they wave it off.

"It's no problem. Then again your probably still getting use to the fact that you have a baby sister." Chris tells her and Sora sighs as she had been hearing that a lot these past few weeks. It was hard especially with her mom as she was completely lost on how to feel about how she was acting.

Logan sighs "Okay instead of talking how about we go into the school?" Logan suggested as the group shrugs or nods and walks in wondering how the day would go.

As they walk in they notice Robyn acting like her normal bratty self and they see Sora freeze. Sara pulls her away towards their homeroom while the others watch.

Logan frowns "...I know she doesn't remember anything, but she deserves so much more than she's getting. She's practically gotten away with that prank." Logan said.

Eva sighs "I know Logan. We all know it, but she doesn't remember. If we were to somehow remind her we'd be back to how we were a few weeks back." Eva said to him.

"I don't know about you, but I'm thinking of skipping homeroom." Logan said to them.

Jazz raised an eyebrow "Why? You don't really seem like the type." Jazz said to him.

"Well to be honest it is just homeroom, and well we do have that field trip today." Logan said reminding them.

"Oh right. We're going to Angel Grove today." AV said with slight excitement.

Jazz nods in understanding "I know your excited sis. Oh and Logan you go ahead and skip, but don't blame us when Mrs. Sheppard finds you and gives you detention." she says.

Logan rolls his eyes "I'll see you guys later. Bye." he said walking off and the others head off for their homeroom.

=LOREKEEPERS=

A few hours pass and students from Mrs. Sheppards and a few others homeroom classes were packing up into buses headed for Angel Grove.

The buses soon left the school students aboard while a orange truck followed behind Logan driving it with Marcus beside him.

"I don't see why I couldn't ride Logan. I know you got your licenses, but you don't have to rub it in." Marcus said as Logan glances over.

"I'm not. Just thought I'd be kind enough to drive us over. Though it is a rather boring that we're just going to a museum." Logan said.

Marcus shrugs "Well we're at least getting out of the school for a while." he says as a red jeep passed by them and Marcus noticed the driver.

"Uhh...Logan...Miss Spears just passed us." Marcus said and Logan saw it pass and saw Maya was driving as well.

"That's strange. Then again she normally leaves the school a few days a week and doesn't come back for a few hours." Logan said as he had noticed that pattern since Maya came to the school five years ago.

Marcus looked over and saw the curious look on his brothers face "Logan if you're thinking what I think you're thinking then let's get the others first." Marcus suggested.

"Fine, but why is she headed for Angel Grove's outskirts?" Logan asked as he watched Maya's jeep which headed a different direction from the buses and the truck.

When they arrived at the museum and the others got off Logan and Marcus stopped them from going in and got them to come off to the side.

"What's up you two?" Sora asked.

"We saw Maya come near town. Just wanted to ask you guys if you want to find out what she's doing." Logan says.

The teens glanced at each other "Well...I guess it wouldn't hurt. Just as long as we're back before we have to go back to the school." Sora says rubbing her neck.

Logan, Marcus, Jason, and Chris sat up front while the girls sat in the back of the truck and headed off towards where Logan and Chris saw Maya go.

=LOREKEEEPERS=

Arriving at the outskirts of Angel Grove Logan stopped his truck when he saw Maya's jeep. The group got out of the truck and carefully walked forward. The area was covered in green and it looked like it had the start of some small ponds forming in a few areas. In the center of the area where Maya was was a unique tree to which Maya was tending to.

AV looked at this area and it seemed oddly familiar especially the tree and the placement of some of the other things.

"Wait...This area we came to. It can't be..." AV thought.

"And there. Wow you just keep growing don't you?" Maya said with a chuckle as she seemed to be talking to the tree.

"Is she really talking to that tree?" Chris asked in a whisper, but it was still loud enough to get Maya's attention.

"Yes I am Chris, and I know the rest of you are there so come out." Maya called out to them and the rangers come out into the open.

Maya looks to them and sighs "Figured you guys would eventually get curious. Sometimes it feels like I can't hide anything from you guys." she says and chuckles

"What is this place Maya? And what's that tree? It certainly doesn't look like some normal tree." Sara asked

"Oh this place. Well I haven't really given it a name yet, but if I have to I'd call it The Oasis." Maya said surprising Eva and AV as they looked to the tree with many different colored leaves.

"As for that tree that the ranger family tree." She said.

"Oasis, ranger family tree? That mean's this place has to be the Star Descendants base will be." Eva thought.

"The place isn't really finished yet, but I've already done a lot thanks to my magic." Maya said as she goes to the water and holds a hand out. Her hand briefly glows as Maya chants and seconds later the water seems to shine even brighter as the rangers watched in awe.

She then walked over towards the tree and kneels down checking it over "Okay looks good. Nothing wrong with you buddy." Maya muttered.

Logan raised an eyebrow "I know it's called the ranger family tree, but what makes it so special?" he asked.

Maya smirks "Why don't you come close and see for yourself?" She says and Logan walks towards the tree getting a good look at the tree and saw the multiple color leaves.

"Well the leaves of certainly...different." He said and Maya rolls her eyes.

"I know it's hard to notice now, but some of the branches and leaves are bunched together. This tree was planted and taken care of by many teams five years ago. The branches and leaves that are close together are family." Maya says indicating a branch with a red and white leaves on it while close to the two was two leaves one colored blue and another a mix of bronze, orange, and purple.

"This tree is very special, and I owe it to a good friend to take care of it." she then adds on.

Sora looked at her "Someone special?" she asked and Maya nods.

"Yeah, but I don't really want to talk about her. Not yet anyways." Maya said the last part she muttered to herself.

The ground shook as their was a brief flash as a monster appeared. It was a six winged metallic creature with bird like talons.

"Scanning...source still unknown." the bird says as their was a flash of white and Erasers appeared.

"Look around. Tear this place apart. Just find that source!" The bird says as the Erasers begin to do as order, but before they could move a group was blasted by a large blast of magic.

The teens looked to Maya who went from being calm to being angry "Back away from The Oasis. I won't tell you twice." Maya said.

"Ignore the witch. She is insignificant compared to the mission." The bird says, and is then blasted himself.

"That does it. Everyone morph!" Maya ordered.

"R-Right! What she said guys." Sora said and the group plus Maya bring out their morphors.

AV smirks "You guys are in for a real treat." She said confusing the rookies and Sora.

Maya stepped forward with a morphor and key in hand which she spun and inserted it "Mystic Knights Unite!" She called out turning the key and morphs into Mystic Knight Red.

"Woah. Well now it's our turn." Logan said as the team each take their data cards out and lock them in.

"Unlock The Legend!" they all called out together turning into their base forms.

Logan charged forward with his bear themed gauntlets punching away at the Erasers alongside Chris who threw his fan like a boomerang taking out enemies as it returned.

Sara and Jason worked together using their staffs knocked the Erasers away and tripped them up Sara stomping down on them to finish them.

The others were doing the same as Maya was confronting the bird and had cut off a wing "Don't like that do you?" Maya said in anger.

"Gahh! Why you little...Fine I'll have to start taking you seriously then." the mech bird said.

"Yeah, and it's going to cost you." Maya said as she slid her finger down the hilt of the blade a red aura covering the blade as Maya chants.

"Pierce through and rend my foe in two. Rending Blade!" Maya calls out and swings the blade sending out a wave of red energy and then she rushes forward cutting right through the monster along with the wave. The monster exploded as the metal scatters around as the other Erasers were finished by the other rangers.

=LOREKEEPERS=

After cleaning up the area Maya looks everything over and sighs "This place needs to be better guarded. I can't risk anyone getting to this place or the tree." Maya said.

Sora thought it over and after seeing Maya's display of magic had an idea "Hey. How about you put some sort of protection spell over the area?" She suggested as Maya hears her and thinks it over.

"That might work, but if I do that then I'd be sealing this area off completely." Maya said as Logan shakes his head.

"Not exactly. Maybe if you tie the spell to something it will still let you and all of us rangers enter." Logan suggested and Maya turns to the ranger family tree.

"...Okay. I suggest you all back up. Don't know what this will do." Maya said and sat down by the tree crossed legged and eyes closed as she held both hands out and began to chant. Her hands and the tree were in a red glow it was then that a small pressure wave came off the tree and pushed them back a bit.

Outside the area around The Oasis and the tree seemed to vanish completely to the outside world as the protection spell took hold.

Maya smiles "That should do it. Now no one unless they are or were rangers will be able to enter or exit this place. It's still got a lot of work to do, but I get the feeling this place will be important." She said.

"You have no idea." AV, Jazz, and Eva thought each smiling.

The group turned to leave, and as they did so Sora couldn't help but look back.

"That tree...I know it's my first time seeing it, but why does it feel like I've seen it before?" she thought.

AV looked from the tree "A tree...a special tree...Princess Liberty." AV thought as very hazy memories began to surface from her time five years ago when she was in Angel Grove.

Away from them Tiberius watched them "Hmm...Still no sign of the source of what needs to be erased from this dimension..." Tiberius said, but was also interested as one of the female rangers had caught his attention.

=LOREKEEPERS=

After the long day Maya was driving home when suddenly her jeep began to slow to a stop as a loud popping sound was heard "Oh come on!" Maya groaned.

She got out of her jeep and saw that the tire was flat "Knew I should have bought a new one or at least brought a spare." she muttered as someone walking by noticed this and Maya as well.

"Need some help their Maya?" A male voice asked and Maya turns expecting possibly Tony, but was surprised at who it was.

"O-Oh. Hi Leonidas. I-I wasn't expecting to see you again. What are you doing here?" Maya asked the man.

"I came to see my new niece as well as my sisters." The man explained.

"Oh right. Well I'd volunteer to drive you, but well as you can see car's a bit flat." Maya said.

Leonidas walks to the back of her jeep and brings out the jack and other tools needed "You do have a spare right?" he asked and she shrugged unsure as Leonidas went to the back and noticed she did have one and took it out.

"You know I can do this on my own." Maya said.

"I know, but I am here and want to help you." Leonidas says as he helped her.

It took them a few minutes, but the two were eventually on their way and Maya dropped him off at the Winchesters to see his sister as well as niece's.

Maya drove off "Leonidas is still a good guy. He's really sweet to his AV, and is finally going to be getting to know Jazz. He is kind of cute." she thought then stopped the jeep at what she thought.

"No...no no no...no no no no no!" she says aloud and then groans at what she realized.

"I seriously hate my love life." she thought thinking back to Tony and Rafeal as well as now Leonidas who it seemed like she was starting to like.

"How do I get myself into these kind of situations?" she then thought and hits her head on the wheel setting off the horn. Minutes later she was on her way home thinking over what to possibly do about her situation.


And that is the end of Episode 5, and while it is mostly filler I thought I would do it to help explore a little more of Maya and her character. I may have also decided to set up an interesting situation for her concerning her love life. Anyways what did you all think of this chapter as well as the introduction to The Oasis and the Ranger Family Tree both of which are key elements in the fic Power Rangers Star Descendants. Well I certainly enjoyed this chapter as I've rarely gotten the opportunity to write anything for Maya, and I might focus on her a bit more in this arc. Anyways until next time this has been decode9!
