-AWAKENTHEBEAST-
Jacob was hanging out with his dad at the auto shop, he usually like spending time with his dad. Joshua would be there to probably talk and talk about his girlfriend or school, but Joshua was going out with Luna. Luna was able to hang out in Norland for the day since Jason felt like the two were robbed of time being spent together because of what happened at the Spring Formal. As Jacob was leaning against an old car his dad was working on, Erick poked his head up from the front hood and held his hand out for his son to hand him a tool. Which is exactly what Jacob did.
"So how is that girlfriend of yours, son?" Erik asks.
Jacob shrugs, "Ah everything is good dad." He said.
Erik nods, "Well I'm glad my two sons were able to find someone who makes them both happy." He said.
Jacob smiles, "Yeah. Sean makes me feel complete." Jacob said.
Erik smiles at his son, "I'm glad."
Jacob hands his dad a towel to remove some oil from his hands, "I mean- I am suppose to meet her mom soon."
Erik turns to Jacob, "Well you'll be fine." He said.
Jacob chuckles, "Yeah. Sean says her mom is kinda protective, more so than her dad. It doesn't help the fact that her mom is a cop, she might be a bit strict." Jacob said.
His dad grins, "Oh she'll see your charm and love you." He said.
Jacob rubs the back of his head, "If you say so, dad."
Erik sighs, "Son. You need to believe in yourself more, quit doubting and worrying about others. You could have been quarterback if you tried a little harder." Erik said.
"Dad?" Jacob made a confused look.
Erik just grins, "I want you be more proud and more confident in yourself."
Jacob nods though he was a bit uncertain about it.
-AWAKENTHEBEAST-
When the teens arrived at HQ, they were just hanging out since Luna was in town. Mostly for Joshua, of course, but it was good to see a familiar face. Luna was talking with the girls most, while the guys were off to the side talking among themselves. Jacob was more silent than the others, he kept thinking about what his dad said and couldn't shake it off. It got to the point that Zack noticed it. Zack nudged his friend, and Jacob glanced up.
"You okay, man?" Zack asks.
Jacob nods, "Yeah- I'm just spacey." He said.
Joshua turns to his brother, "You're usually never spacey. Is everything okay?"
Rory nods, "Yeah mate."
Jacob rubs the back of his neck, "Sorry. I am just stuck on something dad said to me earlier today." He said.
"What, dude?" Nathaniel asks.
Jacob glanced at his friends, "Do I doubt myself a lot or something?" He asks.
The other three exchanged looks and this caused Jacob to sigh. Not only had his dad been right but his friends had not said a thing, let alone his brother mention it. Jacob felt so bad for not noticing this sooner. Then he felt a hand on his shoulder, it was his brother.
"Listen big bro, it is only because that's your personality." Joshua said.
Jacob pretended it made him feel better, "Okay yeah. Maybe I'm just overthinking it."
Joshua chuckles, "Don't you always, Jake?"
Jacob followed his friends with the smiles and walked over to the girls. Joshua was smooth and went over to hold her hand, and kissed her on the cheek. Luna smiles and turns to him for a second as she was finishing what she was telling the girls about one of the Unity Ranger's battles. Ally scoots over to Rory, holding his hand with a big grin on her face. Sean holds onto Jacob's hand, glancing at him for a second then to Luna. Roxxy and Zack held each other's hand, while listening. Nathaniel and Terra both stood side by side as they listened.
"So, Luna, how long are you in town?" Roxxy asks.
Luna turns to her, "Uh for a day. I wish I could stay longer, believe me I wish. But I have school and I know dad would not be happy if I was crashing at Josh's place." Luna said.
Terra grins, "Oh Jason would not be pleased." She says knowing first hand of Jason's protective level.
Ally smiles, "But it doesn't really matter. Its good having you around, Luna." Ally said.
Luna smiles at the rangers, "And its good being around you guys again. As much as I love Unity Lakes, I do enjoy being here in Norland. It feels like a second home." Luna said.
Nathaniel nods, "Well you know you're always welcomed."
Luna nods, "That I do. And you all should feel the same about Unity Lakes."
Zack nods stepping forward, "We do." He said.
In came Lucas and Anya, "Hey." "What's going on in here?"
The rangers all turned to the adults. Anya and Lucas were coming from the monitor center, where the rangers see Anya dressed more formal than usual which was strange.
"What's up with the get up, Anya?" Zack asks.
"Yeah got a date or something?" Sean asks.
Lucas grins from ear to ear, "Actually my baby sister does." He said.
Anya punches Lucas, "Shut up."
Jacob and Joshua exchanged looks and says, "Congrats." At the same time.
Luna looks at her boyfriend and his brother, "Now me and my sisters don't often speak on command like that." She teased.
Anya turns to the rangers, "So what is going on?"
Terra steps forward with her hands resting behind her head, "Luna is just visiting and we thought we could just skip having training for the day."
Lucas gave the teens a look, "Oh yeah. Who's idea was that?"
Zack stepped forward, "Mine, dad. I thought since we've been training so much recently that taking one day off won't hurt anyone." Zack said.
Suddenly the alarm goes off and Lucas glanced from the monitors to his son, "I hope you're right."
-AWAKENTHEBEAST-
The rangers, all of them including Luna, arrived at a construction site to find Rageir, Furi-Rageir, and the one and only Ruko standing so smug like. He held his sword out and ordered the beast to attack. The teens, still being in their civilian clothes began to fight back. Roxxy and Terra stood back to back, the two girls fought with their brutal yet tough strength. Roxxy setting a hard punch in one of the Rageir's jaw, whereas Terra grabbed the arm of a Furi-Rageir and flipped it in the air followed by her kicking it in the back.
"Nice one," Roxxy said.
Terra gives her a thumbs up, "You too."
Rory and Nathaniel were fighting by each other, the two boys avoided the axe hands of the Rageir. They quickly dodged and rolled out of the way. Nathaniel ran up the side of the construction building and flipped in the air over the Rageir by him, he landed and then punched them down one by one. Rory was quick enough because of his prior fencing history. Rory saw a Furi-Rageir coming in from the sky, and to avoid it he grabbed the body of a Rageir and used the axe hand from that Rageir to take down that Furi-Rageir. After that flying beast fell to the ground, Rory kicked the Rageir down onto the ground.
"Good one, Rory." Nathaniel said.
Rory looks at Nathaniel, "I was about to say the samething, mate."
Sean and Ally were by each other, Sean turns to her sister and nodded at her. Ally ran over toward her sister, as she jumps in the air Sean caught her in her hand and tossed her up at the Furi-Rageir. While in the air, Ally caused the Furi-Rageir she was flying on the collide with another Furi-Ragier. Ally jumped down at the last second and landed on a Rageir. Sean was punching down the Rageir, and quickly avoiding the axe hands as she could.
"Flying is so much fun," Ally says turning to Sean.
Sean chuckles, "Well welcome back to the ground."
Zack and Luna were fighting by each other. The two had similar yet different fighting skills as they took down the Rageir and Furi-Rageir. Zack did a side kick on the chest of a Rageir and then turned to do a butterfly kick at one by Luna, she turned and saw the one fall to the ground. Smirking at Zack, Luna shoved him out of the way and tackled the Furi-Rageir that was coming in to take down the Red Ranger. Luna stands and goes a cartwheel as she kicks a Rageir in the face.
"Thanks for the save, Luna." Zack said.
Luna smiles, "Ditto." She said.
Jacob and Joshua were back to back, the twins were like how they always were. Together. Besides the different clothes you wouldn't be able to tell the two apart. Jacob and Joshua fought so similar it was like there was a clone of the original person. Jacob turns to Joshua, he holds his hand out and Joshua takes it. Jacob spins Joshua into the air, Joshua lands on the Furi-Rageir and manages to get it down. Meanwhile, Jacob was handling the Ragier. He was punching the beasts in the face as well as the chest. When his brother lands next to him, Joshua takes down a Rageir that Jacob missed.
"Nice, bro." The twins both said at the same time.
Ruko begins to clap his hands, "My, my. Have we all improved."
The rangers all stood in a line in front of Ruko, "Power Rangers! Awaken The Beast!" "Unity Force! Unite the power!"
All the rangers had morphed into their own unique suit and color. Holding their own personal weapon. As the rangers all ran in the direction of Ruko, he slashed his blade which caused an explosion sending Roxxy and Luna back. Terra stumbled up but her and Nathaniel came in with their knives in their hands. As they go to slash at the rat beast, Ruko manages to deflect the attack. Ruko kicks the Yellow and White Ranger back.
"Is that all you got, rangers?" Ruko asks.
"Not even close, Ruko." Zack said.
Zack jumped in with his sword and Ruko caught his blade up in time before Zack would have done any damage. Though sneaking from behind was Rory, he goes to slash at Ruko, though Ruko grabbed the Black Ranger by the neck and threw him in the direction of Roxxy and Luna. Luna managed to catch Rory, as Roxxy swore under her breathe as she ran into battle. Ally was angry from Ruko's actions and began to fire arrows at the rat.
"Worthless," Ruko said.
Ruko kicked Zack back into Jacob, as he turns to the remaining rangers standing. He releases a shock wave from his mouth causing the rangers to shake as well as the ground around them. The ground began to rumble as some of it even cracked. The rangers exchanged looks of confusion. Nathaniel helped Terra up, from stumbling from the earthquake. Joshua stood up and armed himself with his kama.
"See, I've become more powerful now. You cannot defeat me." Ruko said.
"Oh yeah." Joshua said.
Joshua run in with his kama, aimed and ready for Ruko. Though once the Purple Ranger made it close enough to Ruko, he seemed as if everything was in slow motion. Ruko's blade slashed against Joshua's stomach sending sparks off his suit, and a small explosion. Joshua screamed in pain and powered down, as well as he collapsed onto the ground unconscious. Jacob stumbled up and ran over to his brother.
"Josh-!" Jacob screamed.
Luna looked up, "Josh!" She yelled.
Jacob ran to his brother as Ruko was chuckling from above, Zack growled and ran over with his sword. Jacob looked at his brother with worry and feel of shame that he was the one who got hurt. Joshua was hurt, and hurt badly. But after looking at his brother long enough, instead of feeling guilty the only feeling Jacob had was rage. Rage that came from Ruko, ever since that rat came into the picture all Ruko has done was get in his head. Jacob turns to Luna, she had knelt down next to Josh.
"Watch him," Jacob said.
Luna looks up, "Jacob,"
Jacob grabbed his blaster and tighten his grip on it, Jacob tighten his jaw and didn't realize all the sudden emotions he was feeling. As Zack and Ruko fought, Jacob aimed his blaster directly on Ruko and fired. Zack saw his friend fire his blaster and jumped back, Ruko did not have such luck. Ruko felt the blast on him, he was thrown back and as he stands he sees none other than the Blue Ranger himself.
"Jacob, Jacob. What are you possibly going to do?" Ruko grins.
Jacob held a death glare, "You messed with family. You don't do that." Jacob said.
Ruko chuckles, "I know you Jakey. You're all talk, and no action."
Jacob points his blaster and fires again without a second thought. Ruko nearly missed that attack. When the smoke of the blast cleared, Ruko sees the Blue Ranger being surrounded by a blue glow. It seems that Jacob had unlocked his beast spirit, and he was beyond pissed. The others had gathered around Joshua, looking from the injured twin to the one on the battlefield. Jacob points his blaster at Ruko again.
"Are you going to destroy me? Kill me?" Ruko asks.
Jacob fires again.
Ruko barely dodged that one, "You- seem serious." Ruko huffed.
Jacob turns to Zack, he takes his friend's sword and runs in. Ruko ready himself. Jacob clashed the blade against Ruko's sword, the sound of the sword slashing could be heard in the site. Ruko felt Jacob's power push himself further and then, kicked Ruko back. Jacob went to strike with the blade from his friend, but Ruko grabbed a hold of Jacob's leg and pulled him onto the ground. Jacob rolled over barely missing the blade from above and kicked Ruko back onto the ground.
From where the rangers were Terra says, "Damn Jacob has skills."
Roxxy nods, "Never knew he had it in him."
Zack sighs, "It's because we underestimated him." He said.
Nathaniel nods, "That we did."
Sean watches, "Not only that but he underestimated himself." She says.
Jacob grabs a hold of Ruko's fist as Ruko did the same with Jacob's fist, Jacob then spun around and kicked Ruko back. Ruko stumbled forward, and then turned around to Jacob. At this second, Jacob had grabbed Zack's sword from the ground. Jacob slashed the sword at Ruko upper body, this slash caused sparks from the rat body. Not only that but an explosion occurred, this explosion sent Jacob flying back and Ruko vanishing. Jacob was sent back onto the ground, unconscious and out of his suit.
Sean runs over, "Jacob!"
"Jake!" Zack yells.
-AWAKENTHEBEAST-
-FLASHBACK-
"Jake,"
"What,"
Laying in a grassy field was ten year old Jacob and Joshua, they were staring at the sky.
"Why did you stop Bobby Michael from fighting me?" Joshua asks.
Jacob sighs, "Do I really have to answer?"
Joshua sits up, "Yes!"
Jacob sits up while he groaned, "Because your my brother. And I'd do anything to protect you."
Joshua smiles, "Really, Jake?"
Jacob nods, "Of course, Josh. You are my brother, my best friend- just don't tell Zack that." Jacob said.
Joshua laughs, "Thanks Jake."
Jacob looks at his brother, "For what?"
Joshua reaches over and hugs his brother from behind, "For being my shield. Being my brother, my superhero."
Jacob smiles, "Your welcome, Joshy."
-FLASHBACK OVER-
Jacob woke up in the medical bay in HQ. He sat up in the bed and looked around, no one was in there but Joshua. Joshua was awake and was sitting by Jacob's bed looking worried.
"Jake, you're okay." Joshua said.
Jacob sits on the side of the bed, "Of course I'm okay."
Joshua shakes his head, "After you caused that explosion you were unconscious- well that's what the others said." Joshua said.
Jacob rubs his head, "What happened?"
"You don't remember?" Joshua asks.
Jacob shrugs, "Some of it."
"Well what do you remember?" Asked Anya.
Entering the medical bay was the rangers and Anya. Luna had came over to Joshua's side, holding his hand. Sean went to Jacob, holding his hand with a gentle smile on her face. Jacob saw the happiness on his friend's faces and then turned around until his eyes landed on Anya. Her motherly ways seemed to make her seem older though she was only mature for her age.
Jacob shrugs, "I remember Josh getting hurt and then fighting that rat- what happened?" He asks.
Terra holds a grin, "You defeated Ruko!"
Jacob looked shocked, "What!"
Ally nods, "And you unlocked your beast spirit."
Jacob looked confused, "I did? How?"
"I got hurt, bro." Josh said.
Jacob turned to his brother, "Sorry. I should have kept you safe, bro."
Josh shrugs it off, "You are my brother and I will do anything to keep you safe. Besides, you're not the only superhero." Josh said.
Jacob grins, "You're right."
Nathaniel forms a smile, "I say we celebrate."
The teens all agreed and began to take the twins out of the medical bay. Anya holds a smile and began to leave, as she stands by the monitors of the city. She touches the keyboards with a faint smile. Looking around what she has done, what brilliant she has created with her brother's wit. Anya turns to find Lucas standing there with a grin on his face. He walks over to his baby sister, and she walks over to her brother.
"You're gonna be late." Lucas said.
Anya smiles, "He knows what I do."
Lucas hugs his sister, "I am happy you are doing this. You need to date again."
Anya smiles, "Now I need to find a nice lady for you." She said.
"In due time, little sister. Now go have fun." He said.
Anya leaves the HQ. Lucas walks over to the overhead lights and turns them off.
-AWAKENTHEBEAST-
Anya was sitting at an outside table of a fancy restaurant, waiting for her date to show up. He had texted her saying he was running a few minutes late. Anya was wearing a skin tight red dress, black high heels, and a diamond necklace as well as diamond earrings. Her hair was curly for this moment, with light makeup on her face. She was sitting at the table nervously, she kept glancing from the menu and was thinking about ordering some wine of something to get the nerves off.
"Anya," A male voice said.
Anya looked up, "Hey."
Standing in front of her was a twenty-one year old African-American male. He had short curly black hair and brown eyes. He was wearing a white button down with a silver tie, black dress pants, and black dress shoes. He sits down at the table after shaking hands with Anya. The two shared smiles as they both began to look at the menu. The waitress came over and took their order over their drinks and then food.
"So how is things?" He asks.
"Good, good." She said.
"Found your brother?" He asks.
Anya nods, "Yes. Recently." She said.
He smiles, "Good to hear." He said.
Anya looks from her glass, "How is your family?"
He grins, "Well Carter is well- he's Carter. He's in high school now. Mom and dad are well adjusting to the divorce." He said.
Anya nods, "When I heard about it I was shocked."
"We all were." He said.
Anya smiles, "How was college?"
"Great. I majored in political science." He said.
"Political science, for you? Seriously?" She asks.
He hears her laugh, "Don't laugh at my career choice." He said.
Anya smiles, "Sorry about that."
The waitress came over putting down the check, Anya watched her date sign off on it.
"What's the name on here, sir?" The waitress asked so she could make sure she read his handwriting.
"Andrew, Andrew Rays." He said.
New chapter! New power! Familiar faces! I really wanted Jacob to get his power even though I could have easily have Joshua get his power, however his time will come. I thought going in this direction was different than the others so far to gain their power. Also, is Ruko really gone? Or is he just as alive as he was before the explosion. What did you guys think of seeing not only Luna Scott, but Andrew Rays (only for a moment)?
(Author's Note: I am balancing two jobs so when I have the time I'll update. I thought I'd let you know, but the one job may be GONE. I really dislike it there so I am taking less hours until I am at my second job a little bit longer, you know until I'm pass the first thirty days deal. So please be patient until updates. Also, if you want to read more Power Ranger series of mine I have two other ones currently being worked on and one completed. Check out the first saga, Power Rangers Element Fusion. Check out the third saga, Power Rangers Jurassic Squad. Check out the fourth saga, Power Rangers Zodiac Chronicles. Until next time, ICrzy)
