Chapter 7
A few days later Tommy had called Kim and talked to her about what had happened and how Justin had been acting slightly off ever since Zeltrax had tried to get in his head by talking about his father's death not being accidental but Mesogog's way of trying to stop Justin from becoming the Green Dino Ranger.
"Tommy is Justin staying with you?" asked Kim after Tommy finished talking.
"No why do you ask" came the reply.
"It's just I would feel safer knowing Justin is at yours rather than being by himself in my house especially with whats just happened between Justin and Zeltrax."
"Kim you don't think he'd try to go after Mesogog himself do you?"
"I don't know but if you remember back to when you were turned evil by Rita we never gave up on you, you had me and Jason. Who does Justin have to talk him round?"
"Kim didn't you know he and Kira have finally admitted they love each other I think the fact that Kira was the first one to him when Zeltrax was trying to get a reaction from Justin helped calm him down a little"
"Thank god for that, I thought those two would never admit what they felt for each other."
"Yeah oh by the way Zeltrax said something interesting while he was trying to provoke Justin he said that since the Green Ranger energy was taken from me I wasn't corruptible anymore?"
"Well do you feel different since it happened?"
"Yeah I feel happier inside like the bad part of me is gone forever?"
"Good Tommy I'm glad you aren't carrying the burden of the Evil Green Ranger anymore"
They said their goodbyes and put the phone down.

Later that day the Rangers were at the Cyberspace with Dr. O and Hayley, Kira got off the stage and sat down in the sit next to Conner. "No one listens." Kira said.
"I liked it." Ethan said.
"It's better than all the techno pop junk that everyone listens to." Tommy said.
Hayley nodded in agreement "Theirs that new song by uh what's her name oh yeah Kylee Styles?"
"Hey Kylee Styles happens to be a great artist, Dr. O it's just you and Hayley are getting old" Connor said.
"Translation. You just think she's hot." Ethan said.
"No I don't, I just like her music!" Connor said, starting to blush at being discovered.
"Don't try to deny it, Conner you've been caught red handed!" Justin said as he walked over to the table with drinks for everyone.
"We were just talking about the lack of decent music any more" said Tommy. "Like Kylee Styles, what's do you think of her music?"
"Not bad but I prefer to listen to a certain Yellow Ranger" said Justin earning a kiss from Kira
"You know Kylee used to be a good songwriter," Kira said. "She was really sweet and kind, but ever since she joined a big name record label they've changed her"
"You say that like you two were close" Ethan frowned.
"We used to be," Kira said, as Ethan and Connor exchanged looks. "What? We were in a band together. Then she got discovered and left me now she's a huge singing sensation!"
"Oh, c'mon, you having a laugh aren't you?" Connor asked.
"You don't believe me how can I prove it to you?"
"Here's your chance," Ethan said interrupting them as he repeated what the radio announcer
said "According to Kylee's Agent she's coming to town to promote her new CD."
"Fine we'll go to the album signing this afternoon at the mall." Kira said.
Connor grinned, at Kira. "Cool and since you guys are friends, you can introduce me to her!"
"Don't you think she's out of your league, McKnight maybe you should settle for your normal type sycophantic cheerleaders who follow you around all the time?" said Justin.

After a few minutes the Rangers had noticed that DR. O seamed to be distracted by the man who just walked in.
"Tommy you ok?" Justin asked as Tommy turned away from them, his attention locked onto the old guy that Trent was talking too.
"Who's that guy?" Kira asked.
"It can't be its impossible" said Tommy as he got up and walked over to the man.
"Anton is it really you?" he asked.
"Tommy thank god you're safe I thought I was the only survivor. Do you know what happened to the dig site?" asked Anton.
"Yeah it was attacked by some monster, I tried to find you and the others on the island before I left but I couldn't find anyone"
"I saw him heading to the dig site so I tried to go round a different way but by the time I got their everything was gone and it spotted me so I jumped in to the sea to escape it"
"Yeah that's what I did as well but how come I've never seen you since then?"
"The monster Tommy I managed to sneak two things off the island and I see you managed to get three of them off and I decided to keep away then it couldn't get them"
"Yes I agree it was a smart choice and I used then against the monster to try and save Reefside"
"Good we need stop it quickly"
"So which two did you get off the island?"
"I'll tell you later Tommy you'll have to come up to my place so we can talk in private"
Anton said bye to Tommy as Anton left the Cyber Space with the agreement that Tommy would go up to see him later that day.

3 hours later Kira, Justin and Conner stood in line at the mall. Conner was very giddy.
"Calm down Conner you'd think you've never talked to a woman before." Justin laughed.
"Next." Kylee said.
Kira handed Kylee the CD.
"Who's this to?" Kylee asked.
"Just put to my old friend Kira Ford." Kira said.
Kylee looked up and squealed.
"Oh my gosh! Kira it's been ages since I saw you." Kylee said giving Kira air kisses.
"It's good to see you to Kylee." Kira said thinking maybe Kylee had changed.
"We'll have to get together later." Kylee said sending them off.
Conner left after that but Kira and Justin stayed a little longer. Then just as they decided to leave they saw a donkey like monster attack Kylee. Kira and Justin fought Donkeyvac but it hit Kylee with a laser beam. Conner and Ethan showed up as Donkeyvac fled. They ran over to Kylee.
"Are you all right Kylee?" Kira asked.
"Does it look like I'm alright?" Kylee sobbed. She looked like she had aged 70 years.
"Come on. Let's get you somewhere safe. Conner, Ethan you guys go find Tommy, Justin can I borrow storm's Keys?" Kira asked. Justin tossed his keys to Kira and said thanks as she took her friend by the arm. She put Kylee in Storm and said to Justin "Do you think you can hold of that thing until the guy's arrive"
"Sure thing K" said Justin.
Then Kira drove to Hayley's leaving Justin to fight Donkeyvac until help arrived.

Meanwhile Tommy's jeep stopped outside Anton's mansion and he knocked on the door. But as he knocked the door opened by itself and it looked like their had been a fight in the house Tommy looked round for Anton but couldn't find him, then as he walked into Anton's Office Zeltrax pushed the door open and knocked Tommy down and walked by holding two boxes in his hands then as Tommy was about to fight back against Zeltrax when he saw Anton on the floor looking like he had tried to fight back but had lost and it was obvious what was in the boxes, Tommy let Zeltrax go so he could check Anton and make sure he was not seriously injured which he wasn't all he had were minor injuries.
"Anton my friend are you ok?"
"Yeah thanks Tommy I am since you showed up but what did that thing want?"
"He took two boxes and vanished"
"Oh he took the two Gems I saved from the island I had got them out ready to give you for safe keeping I new you would know what to do with them"
"Anton I promise you I will do all I can to get them back before Mesogog can use them for evil I promise you"
"I know you will Tommy now go I will be fine"
Dino thunder return of the Dragon
On his way back to the fight Justin found a quiet spot and pulled out his Morpher and called.
"GREEN RANGER DINO POWER" and Morphed in to his suit then ran out to fight the monster who was now standing outside the shopping center looking for it's next victims and just as Justin pulled out his hand blaster Cassidy and Devin ran up in front of the monster and tried to interview it about why it was here attacking Reefside when Donkeyvac activated it's laser and hit Cassidy and Devin and instantly aged them to the same age as Kylee had been.
"This is all your fault Devin how can I go on TV looking like this?"
"Incase you haven't noticed I'm like this as well"
"Huh but people can't see you, you hold the camera"
"Is that all I am to you someone to hold the camera?" said Devin as he dropped the camera and walked away.
"Devin please don't go" said Cassidy.
"Why shouldn't I?"
"Because I don't want the last time we talk to be an argument"
"Cass what are you talking about this won't be the last time we talk were in the same classes at school"
"Devin we could die like this"
"No we couldn't see the Rangers are hear" said Devin as the Red, Blue and Black Dino Rangers arrived and helped the Green Ranger who was struggling to avoid the laser beams.
Dino thunder return of the Dragon
Kira and Kylee had just arrived at Hayley's Cyberspace and Kira helped Kylee out of Storm Blaster and into the Cyberspace than sat her down as Hayley saw her and came over to help Kira settle Kylee.
"Thanks Kira you really are a good friend" said Kylee.
"Kylee I have to go out for a minute" said Kira.
"NO you have to stay with me. I need you please Kira"
"Kylee I need to check on my boyfriend he was left at the shopping center after handing me his keys for the jeep I brought you hear in"
"NO I need you to stay Kira please"
"Alright I'll stay for a little longer"
Dino thunder return of the Dragon
Meanwhile the boys were fighting Donkeyvac. When after a few minutes Zeltrax showed up and began attacking them. Justin pulled out his Dragon Dagger and prepared to attack Zeltrax.
"Justin help Conner and Ethan I'll deal with Zeltrax this is personal" said Tommy.
"Fine but one day I will fight him" said Justin.
Tommy moved towards Zeltrax and pulled out his Bracio Staff and went toe to toe with Zeltrax.
"Well Zeltrax where have you put the boxes you stole from Anton Mercer?"
"None of your business Oliver let's just say you are lucky you got the Green and Black Gem's away from Mesogog you will not be successful in taking them this time"
"You know something Zeltrax I wouldn't be surprised if you still had possession of them"
"If I have what will you do about it your precious team are in trouble oh and pass a message to the Green Ranger let him know that I look forward to helping him rejoin his parents, where he should have stayed instead of ruining my life"
"One day Zeltrax I will figure out what you have against me and Justin and I'll let Justin fight you but I warn you, you have lit a fire in him that you might not be able to put out"
"Hah he is merely a child he was back then and still is now and I shall deal with him as such"
"We need some help." Conner called as he Ethan and Justin hit the ground hard.
"See what did I tell you" said Zeltrax.
"Call Kira" said Tommy as he and Zeltrax exchanged blows.
Conner activated his Morpher to contact Kira but there was know answer he tried again and this time Kira replied and Conner said. "Kira we need your help"
"Right guy's I'll get their as soon as I can" replied Kira.
Dino thunder return of the Dragon
"Kylee I really need to go." Kira said.
"But Kira who's gunna sit with me and help me in my old age." Kylee whined.
"Kylee your not gunna stay like this forever once the Rangers have defeated that thing you will return to normal"
"But I want to be young now I have a concert tonight"
"Well unfortunately you can't Kylee, now I have to check on my boyfriend"
"No Kira you have to stay with me I need you more than anyone else"
"No Kylee. All day you've treated me like crap. I tried to be nice. You've changed and not for the better. You sold out. I have to go Hayley and Trent will take care of you. If you want to hear who
you really are listen to this." Kira said handing Kylee a tape and running out.
Dino thunder return of the Dragon
After sitting their a few minutes on her own wondering what Kira meant when she said Kylee had changed and was a sell out she looked at the tape and noticed what it said 'Best friends by Kira Ford and Kylee Styles'. Kylee suddenly realised Kira was right.
"Uhm Hayley could you play this for me please?"
"Sure thing Kylee" Hayley said taking the tape and playing it for Kylee to listen to.
After the song was finished Hayley said, "You two sound so good together"
"Yeah I forgot how good we were together" after a few minutes of silence Kylee added "Hayley do you have a phone I can borrow?"
"Sure Kylee here you go"
"Thanks"
"Uhm Hayley can I have a word with you?" asked Trent.
"Sure Trent what is it" replied Hayley.
"Well you know how busy we've been getting I was wonder if you were going to employ another waitress to help me?"
"Maybe why have you got someone in mind?"
"Yeah my girlfriends moved to town and she's coming down later to see me before she surprises her uncle who lives in town"
"Who is she Trent?"
"Her name in Andrea Scott she's going to stay at Dr. Oliver's tonight, while I try and talk Anton in to letting her move in with us"
Dino thunder return of the Dragon
"Guys!" Kira yelled fully Morphed.
"You're here!" Conner yelled.
"Finally!" Ethan said.
"Let's just do this." Kira said as she knocked Donkeyvac away from Justin and helped him up.
"Z-Rex Blaster" called Conner.
They combined their weapons and defeated Donkeyvac.
Dino thunder return of the Dragon
"You will not defeat my monster that easily" said Mesogog as he walked over to the computer console and activated the Hydro regenerator. A dark cloud appeared over Donkeyvac causing it to grow to a bigger version of what they just destroyed.
Dino thunder return of the Dragon
Meanwhile in Hayley's Cyberspace the news reporter showed the Monster blowing up and then before the youth it absorbed out of its targets could escape it grew. Hayley stood behind the counter ready to activate the Zord's, Trent was restocking the smoothie machines, while she was waiting she could hear one side of Kylee talking to her agent.
"I need you to cancel my performance tonight."
Dino thunder return of the Dragon
"We need the Zord's" called Conner.
"Their on their way guy's" said Hayley.
Justin played the tune on his Dagger to activate his Zord, but just before he could jump into his Zord he got attacked by Elsa.
"Guys combine Zord's" said Conner as they formed the Thundersaurus Megazord.
"DINO DRILL!" They yelled knocking Donkeyvac over but not destroying him.
The Dragonzord walked in and started fighting on its own while Justin was distracted by Elsa.
Then from nowhere a Pink blast hit Elsa, Justin looked round and was shocked to see Kimberly standing their in her Ninjetti outfit again and her Power Bow in hand.
"Kim good to see your back" said Justin.
"Thanks now go help your teammates while I deal with her" said Kim.
Justin entered his Zord and with a double tail drill they destroyed the monster.
Dino thunder return of the Dragon
Meanwhile in the Cyberspace Kylee's agent was asking her why she needed to cancel her performance tonight as Kylee realised she was back to her normal self and she was just about to change her mind when Hayley inadvertently started the tape going again. And could still only hear one side of the conversation.
"I need to do something more important"
"That's your job"
"I'll do it another day" then she put the phone down and walked over to Hayley and handed her the phone back then said. "Hayley I need your help to surprise Kira?"
"What can I do?"
"Do you think you could talk Kira in to playing that song tonight?"
"Well if I can't Justin could"
"Great I'd better re-learn the lyrics ready for tonight. Thanks Hayley" said Kylee.
"Where are you gunna go to learn them"
"I don't know yet"
"Why don't you use my office it's quiet in their"
Dino thunder return of the Dragon
The Rangers were celebrating at Dr. O's, when Justin asked Kim. "Are you back for good?"
"Yeah Justin I'm back, so what did you tell Randal?"
"That you were in Angel Grove at the funeral of your dad and that Tommy had gone with you for moral support with you two being exes"
"Right thanks for that Justin"
"Ok Kim"
"So do we party at Hayley's tonight or what?" asked Conner deciding to change the subject.
"Sure why not I'm playing tonight I just need to work out what song to perform" replied Kira.
Dino thunder return of the Dragon
The group had made their way down to the Cyber Space and the first thing that happened was Kim going over to Hayley and saying that Ernie said hi and to let him know if she ever needed anything he would do whatever he could to help. After Kim finished talking to Hayley Justin and Kira walked up to the stage to get Kira's equipment set up. Hayley after finishing her talk with Kim she heard Trent saying something she turned to see what it was and saw a girl beside him.
"Hayley I would like you to meet my girlfriend Andrea"
"Hey Andrea Trent's told me a little about you" replied Hayley.
"Likewise Trent's told me you're a kind boss"
"Yeah did he also tell you he's asked if I could give you a job?"
"Actually it was my idea"
"Cool so why don't you have a trial tonight and we'll see how you do?"
"Thanks Hayley"
Hayley walked over to the stage as Trent showed Andrea where to put her jacket while she had her trial.
"So Kira what song is it tonight?" asked Hayley.
"I don't know yet why?"
"I was wondering if you could sing that one that was on the tape you gave Kylee"
"So she actually listened to it?"
"Yeah quiet a few times actually and I was wondering if you could sing it on your own?"
"Sure at least I know what song to sing, now I just need to remember the words"
"Great so what do you want to drink?"
What we usually have and my usual when I'm performing"
"Ok they'll be ready in a few minutes, I'll get them sent to your table, and yours brought to you by either Trent or my newest waitress. Oh by the way what does Kim drink?"
"Just send her the same as Tommy" said Justin.
While Kira and Justin were getting the equipment ready Hayley got the drinks ready to send out and handed Kira and Justin's to Andrea and she bought their drinks over to the stage.
"Here you go guy's" she said handing their drinks over.
"Thanks" said Justin looking up, then he realsied who she was. "Andrea is it really you?"
Kira looked up after remembering that name from the Ranger video.
"Justin Stewart I don't believe it, what are the chances of this?"
"I know the last time we saw each other was Adam and Tanya's wedding right?"
"Yeah have you spoken to Selena since then?"
"No I left town the next day after my dad got that job"
"I'm Sorry about him Justin, Jason told me what happened and I felt so bad for you"
"Thanks Andy so what brings you to Reefside?"
"I've moved to town to be with my boyfriend Trent"
"Does Tommy know?"
"No I want to surprise him later when I arrive on his door step"
"Well he is over there if you want to go over and talk to him?"
"Cool so who's your friend then" she asked indicating to Kira.
"Andrea this is Kira my Girlfriend. Kira this is Andrea Scott"
"Hi" they both said to each other. Then Andrea had to go back to her job.
Dino thunder return of the Dragon
About half an hour later Kira was ready to perform the song she and Kylee had written years ago.
Kira walked up to the microphone and said "This song is called best friends I wrote this a long time ago with an old friend. I hope you like it." Kira said and she started singing.
The crowd were really getting in to the song and started to dance to it Tommy and Kim then embarrassed everyone but especially Justin by dancing along.
Dino thunder return of the Dragon
Halfway through the song a second voice could be heard Kira kept singing unsure about what was happening and then she saw the last person she had ever expected to see walking out Kylee singing the song with Kira they continued together almost like the last time they'd sung it was yesterday and not three years ago they never missed a note. After the song was over Kira hugged her friend then they both took the applause.
