So, this is one of the chapters I've been most excited about. Literally, I nearly had a heart attack writing it. So, here is the next installment of The New Kid Looks Kind Of Green.

I don't own Power Rangers, but I do own Kaleb!

Today was such a great day. There wasn't a monster in sight, I was out of my arm sling, Rocky was finally getting the fact that I wanted him to leave me alone, and today was the Scavenger Hunt! I loved these events. The clues, the riddles, the feeling you get when you find one of the items, it's just so fun. Like I told him to, Tommy asked Kim to be his partner for finding the items in Angel Grove. Me and Adam made up another duo, though Rocky wanted to join, Aisha saved my butt by taking him with her and Billy.

We divided the clues into three sections, so we'd all find one third of the items. Me and Adam found eight of the ten items, so we just needed two more. All was going well, so I was in a very good mood today.

Adam and I were in the park, just walking around, casually looking for one of the items, with me just humming a simple song. Adam seemed amused by this, "What's got you so happy Kaleb? It can't be this hunting thing, can it?"

I shrugged, "I think it helps, but also, Zedd hasn't attacked us in over a week. It's been two weeks since Showbiz showed up and we haven't been called into action." I gushed, feeling very happy. I haven't really felt this happy since I moved to Angel Grove. I was finally feeling like this was my home.

My black wearing friend just laughed, "Well, I wouldn't know how exciting these hunts are, as I've never done one."

I nodded, "So you've said. Speaking of hunting, what was the clue to the next item?"

He pulled out two pieces of paper and read out loud one of them. "I may have an ear, but I lack the ability to hear."

I looked at the card confused. "What? They expect us to find a deaf person? That doesn't make any sense." I noted, throwing my hands in the air.

Adam laughed, "I think it's talking about corn. You know, an ear of corn?" He informed me. I kept my hands in the hair for a second, before dropping them. "Oh." I said, like an idiot.

He just cracked up, making me pout. "You're mean Adam." I commented, crossing my arms. Adam kept on laughing, while I was contemplating shoving my foot somewhere very uncomfortable, for him at least.

I looked around, once he calmed down, "So, where do you find corn in Angel Grove?" I asked, using my hands like binoculars. There wasn't anything corn-related, just a bunch of normal park goers. You know, like people throwing a frisbee, kicking a soccer ball, Kim's face in an extremely close proximity. Wait a minute, what?

I looked up from my 'binoculars' to see her right there, in my face. "Hello!" She sang, making me fall backwards. Luckily, Adam caught me, but that didn't stop him from laughing his butt off. I glared at nothing in particular, because I wasn't a chameleon and I could only look in one direction.

"Haha, very funny." I muttered, crossing my arms. Kimberly just laughed some more. I glared at her, "Aren't you supposed to be with Tommy?"

She nodded, "I am. I was running over to get our next item when I saw you guys!" She spoke really fast, like a very excitable squirrel. Either someone spiked her coffee with too much sugar or she was enjoying her date with a certain Tommy Oliver.

I backed away a bit, "Um, okay. Well, uh, hi?" I waved nervously, afraid that I might actually set her off on a hyperactive streak. She turned around, "Tommy, what was the clue again?!" She called out.

Tommy, who was way behind, came up to us, breathing a little labored, probably because chasing after Kim is just plain impossible. He read from a paper similar to ours. "It's the color of a tomato, has wheels, and can travel at great speeds. A picture with this is all you need."

I hope they got it right, because even I knew what it was. "So, Tommy, what do you think it is?"

He shrugged, "A stop sign on roller-skates." He joked. Adam, him and I all had a good laugh at that.

Kim, on the other hand, ran off again, screaming, "That's it!" We watched as she ran like a crazy person over to a red sports car. I placed a finger in my ear, trying to fix my now ruined hearing, thanks to a certain Pink Ranger.

She stood next to it, "It's a red car!" She gestured it with her hands, like we couldn't see it. We walked over to her, me kneeling down to examine the wheels. Well, more so the rims, as I saw something in the little crevice of it. I leaned down and reached my hand under the car and pulled out an ear of corn. I showed it to Adam and we both just started cracking up.

Once we calmed down, after three minutes of laughing, I placed the corn in the bag Adam held. "Why, oh why, would they hide the corn, under a car and behind the tire?" I asked, just questioning the randomness of it all.

Kim just smiled to Tommy, "Get the camera out!" She sped talk, once again. Kim grabbed Adam and pulled him behind her, while I was still on the ground, in front of her legs, next to the car. Tommy snapped a picture, and the photo came out. He gave us a little cheeky grin, "Got it." He said.

Kim just threw her hands up in the air, "Yes! I just love scavenger hunts!"

Adam nodded, "Yeah, this is fun."

Kim just turned to the Asian boy, "I'm so glad you're on a team this year Adam."

I just nudged him, "Well, he's my teammate, so no touchy!" I said, grabbing his arm.

Adam looked a little sheepish, "I just hope I can help Angel Grove High win."

Kim checked her watch, "Oh my gosh, we don't have that much time left. What's the next clue?" She asked Tommy.

"It's small but it makes a noise that could stop a game. People can do it just the same."

Again, I knew what it was, but that would take the fun away from Kimberly.

I decided to play a little dumb, "That one isn't easy." I said, Tommy laughing as well. Kim took off again, "I think I have an idea of what it is." Tommy, sighed, but turned to the two of us. "Man, she loves this game."

Adam just shook his head, "I haven't noticed." He added, sarcastically. Tommy laughed, but chased after his date.

I turned to Adam, "So what's our last clue?"

I tried keeping my happy face going, but it was way too hard. Bulk and Skull made it a little easier, with that Gypsy garbage they pulled at the Youth Center, but other than that, I haven't really felt the need to be happy.

Kaleb was ignoring me, sending me glares and just being awful to me. Aisha told me that he's just going through a phase, but I don't think a phase lasts a month. I must've done something to upset him, but the problem was what? It was like my own little scavenger hunt in my mind, looking for something that I could've possibly done to make him this angry with me.

I tried not to let it bother me, by just continuing my life as we used to, but it is pretty difficult. Kaleb didn't even thank me for saving him and his little siblings. Not that I did it just for the glory of saving someone, but because he was my friend, or so I thought.

It was killing me on the inside. What the hell did I say or do to make him so angry? It must've happened during my little 'fun' incident, because I don't remember anything about that. I just know that I started playing Pachinko and then the next thing I know, I'm morphed and in the Command Center with Kim, Aisha, Adam and Billy turned into giant pinballs.

I wish I knew, just so I could get my friend back.

I just sighed in relief, finding the toy robot in the middle of the park was not an easy task. I had to climb a very tall tree to get it. Let me tell you, getting down from that tree took longer than I wanted to. But, Adam and I had found all of our items. Now, it was just time for us to relax and enjoy the….

Do do do do do do!

The communicator sounded off, ruining my relaxation plans. Adam lifted his wrist to his mouth, "This is Adam and Kaleb, what's up?" He asked.

Alpha spoke through, "Zedd's unleashed another of his monsters!"

"Adam, you must morph into action against CannonTop immediately. The other rangers are waiting for you." Zordon explained. "Kaleb, teleport to the Command Center right away."

I sighed, turning to Adam, "Good luck."

He smiled, "You too."

I pressed my teleportation button and I was off to the Command Center. I wonder what Zordon wants. Maybe he's finally giving me that thing he's been promising! It must be important if he's giving it to me now.

I landed in the middle, with Alpha working on something. I walked up to him, but he spun around quickly, "No, don't come closer!" He blared.

I raised an eyebrow, "Alpha, why am I here?"

Zordon looked down at me, "Kaleb, the time has come for you to take on the responsibility of a lifetime. Alpha has done numerous tests on your mentality and physicality and the results have concluded that you are indeed, Power Ranger ready." He explained.

My jaw almost came out of my body. I was going to be an actual Power Ranger? Like for real? With the Zords and everything? I grinned, "Oh my god, thank you so much Zordon! I won't let you down!" I babbled.

The intergalactical head just smiled, "I know you won't. Now, Alpha, hand him his morpher."

The robot nodded, "Roger!" He then picked up a bracelet/belt-buckle like the others had. I saw a dinosaur on it. "A Parasaurolophus?" I asked, making sure I saw it correctly.

Zordon nodded, "Yes, you are the Power Ranger of the Parasaurus. You command the mighty ParaZord." He explained.

This was just too cool! I was finally a Power Ranger. I would be able to go on missions, like real missions. I would be able to protect my siblings better than I did with Showbiz.

An alarm interrupted my thoughts. Alpha started panicking again. "Aye yi yi! CannonTop has the rangers on the ropes! Kaleb, you have to go help them!"

I nodded, "Right, I'll teleport there right away."

I moved away from Alpha and pressed the button. The green light consumed me, and I was off to the park.

Hold on guys, the newest Power Ranger is on his way.

So, Kaleb is now a ranger! Who saw that coming? What do you think the others will do? How will Tommy, Kim, Rocky, Billy, Adam, and Aisha react? What will Bulk and Skull do now that there is another ranger?

Find out in the next chapter! Review your thoughts. Please, it only takes a few moments of your time!
