To all my readers, if you don't like the way I write SPD, then you don't have to read it and this goes for all of my Power Ranger fanfics, both current and future ones. I'm not gonna force you to read them.
A word of warning, to those of you who like to announce the next chapter (i.e. episode) title of the fanfic, don't ever do that. It's extremely annoying to me and I don't like it. If you continue to do it again for all of my Power Rangers fanfics, you will be blocked until I have posted more than enough Power Rangers stories in order for me to trust you again. You know who you are because it's not a joke and I'm not playing around. As always, no negativity and Happy Reading!
I DO NOT OWN CHARACTERS OF POWER RANGERS SPD! I ONLY OWN THE OC!

"I do not know why they fight for such a worthless planet or their inevitable fate." said Gruumm as he was sitting in his chair, talking to someone. "But the fact remains that they do."
Suddenly a power surge went through him, causing him to groan. "I do not question our supremacy or that we will be victorious." he then said. "Preparations are in place. We are ready to leave. Yes, we have undertaken a plan that will ensure us the conquest of earth." In space, Gruumm's ship was heading towards a wormhole and enters it.
At the base, Kat called for the rangers. "Power rangers, report to delta command center immediately."
"What's going on?" asked Jack as the alarm blared in the background.
"Leah, what did you do?" asked Z.
"Me? Nothing." said Leah. "I didn't do anything. At least, I think I didn't do anything."
"Gruumm is gone and so is his ship." said Cruger once the rangers were in the command center.
"Yes. He's retreated." said Sky.
"We won!" screamed Jack and all but Leah cheered. She pressed her ears against her head and placed her hands over them. "Enough." said Cruger.
"Hello, hello. Its celebration time." said Jack. "You said it yourself. Gruumm is gone."
"Yes, he's gone. But I know my enemy." he said. "He does not retreat."
"Commander, I found something." said Kat, gaining their attention. "I was scanning the far reaches of the Tenarian Nebula when I found this."
On the monitor was the wormhole. "A wormhole?" asked Cruger.
"Yes, a temporal wormhole." said Kat. "And there are traces of Troobian energy inside the rim."
"I never seen a temporal wormhole before." said Leah. "I've heard about them in theory, but never actually seen one."
"Finally, you learning about something that you never knew before." Sky said, jokingly.
"I'll give it to you, Sky." she tells him, tipping an imaginary hat. "This is something that I get to experience for the first time in my life."
"Sounds like retreating to me." Jack said.
"That's what he wants us to think." said the sirian.
"Sir, then where is he going?" asked Sky.
"The more important question is…what time is he going to?" asked Cruger.
Reefside High School, 2004
A video game was being played as a teenage was drawing in his sketch pad of the people in front of him. "Great." said Ethan. "I was just about to defeat the dreaded maxodrone, when his evil ship comes by and destroys all that I've done. Can you believe it?"
"Is just a game, Ethan." said Kira.
"Yeah, you're acting as if it's real." said Trent.
"What if it is real?" asked Ethan. "What if this game is an ancient diary, telling me about a real event that happened in a distant galaxy far, far away?"
"Ethan, you mind is the only thing that is far, far away." Kira tells him.
"Ohh." said Trent.
"Hey guys, what's up?" asked Connor.
"Ethan's giving us a history lesson on something he learned on his handheld 'Geekboy'." explained Kira.
"All right, you're right." said Ethan. "It's not ancient galactic history."
"Finally." she said.
"But it could be the future." he said.
"Remember, it's just a game." said Connor.
Suddenly there was a loud boom and Gruumm's ship was over the high school. "Earth, 2004." said Gruumm. "We defeat her now, and then, when we return to the future, there will be no resistance to our conquest…if there is anyone left at all."
He laughs evilly and looks down at Mora. "Show me what you've drawn, Mora." he said.
"Just this." she said as she shows him and the monster appears.
"At your service, master." he said.
"Excellent." said Gruumm.
"Yeah, yeah. I'm going to go play now." said Mora.
"No." said Gruumm, stopping her from going to her room. "I want you to draw more monsters, Mora. More! Make sure, this time, we prevail."
Newtech City, 2025
"A wormhole is a thin tube of space time connecting distant regions of the universe that could possibility of time travel." explained Kat.
"Einstein's theory of relativity." said Bridge.
"Correct. Commander."
"I believe Gruumm has become frustrated with the resistance S.P.D. is showing and has decided to take the terror and battle into the past, where victory will be certain." said Cruger.
"We can't just let him do that." said Z.
"I don't even want to know what will happen if he defeats the past." said Leah.
"We won't. We will go after him." said Cruger.
"Into the wormhole?" asked Z and Leah's eyes went wide.
"Yes. But I'm sending just the four of you. I can't leave the present unprotected." said Cruger. "Say your goodbyes and report to Delta Launch in five minutes."
They saluted and left the command center with Bridge and Leah remaining behind.
"Sir?" Bridge asked. "When you say, 'Say your goodbyes', do you mean 'goodbye' as in 'see you later' or do you mean 'goodbye' as in…'goodbye'?"
"We're checking his brain when we come back, right?" whispered Leah and Kat nods her head.
"I'm curious to know as well." said Kat.
"Wait." said Bridge as he backs out of the command center. "Don't answer that."
"I'll be right back." Leah quickly said as she teleported to her room. They both looked at each other. "I hope she isn't packing to live in the past permanently." said Cruger.
"I wouldn't count on it." said Kat, smiling as Leah appears back in the command center with her backpack in tow.
"I've got a theory of where Gruumm might have gone, and if it's where I think it is, I'm going on a command center hunt." said Leah.
"I hope that your theory is correct." said Cruger and leaves the command center. Kat looks down at her daughter. "Ahadi yangu kwamba kule kufanya kitu chochote wazimu." said Kat.
"Ninaahidi. Wote Mimi Ni maswali madhara Na Mimi kuletwa daftari yangu Na ili aweze kuandika majibu yake katika." said Leah and hugs her mother.
"Good." said Kat.
Reefside High, 2004
"Okay, next time you predict the future like this, could you at least make me a pop star?" asked Kira.
"I didn't know it was going to come true." said Ethan.
"We gotta find Dr. 'O'." said Trent.
"Well, you found me instead." said Zeltrax, causing them to look up.
"At least it's a familiar face." said Connor.
"Yeah, great." said Ethan.
An S.P.D. shuttle arrives at the wormhole. "Last chance." said Jack. "Anyone want to turn back?"
"I'm good." said Leah.
"All right." said Jack. "Let's go."
"Remember what we talked about, Leah?" asked Z.
"Yeah, yeah. That's why I have the necklace on." she said.
Zeltrax growls at the Dino thunder rangers. "Rangers, we fight again." he said and just before they could respond, a whoosh sound was heard and orange light appeared over Zeltrax.
"Now that's something you don't see every day." said Connor.
"I wonder what they want with Zeltrax." said Trent as they continued to head towards the house of Dr. 'O'.
"Does it really matter?" asked Kira. "Hopefully, they'll take him into space and sell him for scrap metal."
"Well, it's all good. Zeltrax is gone and so are they." said Ethan.
"Yeah, but they aren't." said Connor, causing the others to look up at the shuttle that Jack, Leah, Bridge and Z were using.
"Connor, Kira, Ethan." said Jack as they walked over to them. "Nice to see you guys again. You must be Trent."
"I've always wanted to meet the famous white Dino thunder ranger." said Leah.
"And that wish came true." said Z.
"Yes it did." Leah replied with a smile on her face.
"So, you are the one they called Zeltrax." said Gruumm as he teleported him onto his ship.
"You know my name and now you will know my wrath." said Zeltrax.
Gruumm starts laughing as he deflects Zeltrax's attack. "I have a proposition for you." said Gruumm as Zeltrax was on his knees. "You and your troops will help me strike down the power rangers, or I will…"
"Stop!" said Zeltrax, stopping Gruumm from continuing his pain on him. "No need to go on. Eliminating the power rangers…it would be my pleasure."
"Excellent. My warriors will help you." said Gruumm, showing him the monsters that Mora had drawn.
"Okay, let me see if I have this straight." said Ethan. "You guys are from the future? And you're power rangers."
"And you're chasing an emperor named Gruumm, who is trying to conquer the future of earth." said Kira.
"And Gruumm came to defeat earth now, so in the future, he will have already conquered earth." said Connor.
"And you know these guys because they were brought to the future and helped you out?" asked Trent.
"Let's go out on a limb and say you're telling us the truth." said Connor. "Why don't we remember any of this?"
"I know." said Bridge and Leah.
"You first, Bridge." said Leah.
"Thanks, Leah." said Bridge. "We erased your memory, because knowledge of the future would have a detrimental effect on it, causing it not to happen in the random manner when it was supposed to happen without you interacting with it."
"What did he say?" asked Kira.
"We were hoping you can tell us. We've given up trying." said Z, before looking down at Leah.
"He means, if we didn't erase their memories, their knowledge of the future would have a major impact on the past." explained Leah. "Think about what could've happen to the timeline if they knew everything."
"What is she talking about?" asked Ethan.
"I'm talking about, if I had taught you the language of my people and we sent you back…it would have had a huge impact on the future." said Leah.
"Oh." said Ethan as their morphers went off.
"Krybots." said Jack. "I've got three separate readings. Okay. You guys, stay here. This is our fight."
"Excuse me. Not anymore." said Kira. "Your Gruumm must be teamed up with our mortal enemy, Zeltrax."
"That's right. Your fight is now our fight." said Connor.
"Okay, while you guys figure out a game plan, I've got some research to do." said Leah, taking off her necklace and hands it to Z.
"You're not doing it." Z said firmly.
"I've got to. I'm burning with questions here." she tells her. "Plus we're in the trees. No one but you and those four will see it. Come on, Z, you know very well that you can't stop me."
"But…"
"This is a once in a lifetime moment. It won't take me very long." said Leah, then she teleports from where they were and the Dino Thunder rangers looked at her in confusion.
"You don't want to know." said Jack as he scratches the back of his neck.
Newtech City, 2025
"Oh, no." said Kat.
"What is it?" Cruger asked.
"This isn't good, Doggie." she said, facing him. "The wormhole…its closing. If they're not back within three hours, they won't be coming back."
Out in the city, people were screaming. "I claim this area in the name of the Troobian empire." said the orange head foot soldier.
"Not so fast, pumpkin head!" shouted Jack as he runs towards him.
"The signal's getting strong." said Bridge as he was getting closer. "They've got to be around here."
His morpher then picks up blue heads and Krybots that were in front of him. "Yep. I think I found them." he said.
"Any last words, ranger?" asked the blue head.
"S.P.D. EMERGENCY!" shouted Bridge. Once he morphed, he started fighting the blue head and Krybots. "Is that all you got?" Bridge asked, only to get blasted and over a cliff. "Guess not!"
"Prepare for the inevitable, ranger." said the orange head and goes to attack Jack. "Just give up."
"Now I'm mad!" said Jack. "Fire!"
An orange head follows Bridge over the cliff's edge. The orange head who was fighting Jack, laughs evilly as he stands back up. "Now I'm really mad!" said Jack and goes another round.
"Time to get serious." said Bridge as he takes out his blaster. "Hyah! Fire!"
Once the orange head was down for the count, Bridge was pleased. "Well, thanks for playing." he said.
"Time to say good bye." said Jack as he fires rapidly at the orange head. "Adios."
"The wormhole is closing." said Cruger. "I need to go after the rangers and warn them."
"I'll go with you sir." said Sky.
"I'll go too." said Syd.
"No, I need you here in case the unthinkable happens." he tells them.
"Sir, if you go back and we stay here, and Gruumm wins, then being here is unnecessary." argued Sky. "There won't be a 'here'."
"He's right, sir." said Kat.
"Hmm." said Cruger. "All right, then, we will all go."
Z had her morpher out and tracking the signal with the dino rangers. "Hey, guys, wait up." said Jack as he and Bridge caught up with them.
"Any luck?" asked Connor.
"We just ran into a couple Krybots." said Bridge. "We took care of them. You?"
"No. Nothing…which doesn't make any sense, because the Troobian energy around her is off the chart." said Z.
"What about that little ranger that came with you guys?" Trent asked.
"Me?" asked Leah as she teleported beside him.
"Got what you needed?" asked Z, giving her back the necklace.
"Yep and a whole lot more." said Leah, putting it back on. "I loved every minute of it." Suddenly an explosion was heard and Zeltrax came through.
"Hey." said Jack as they ran over towards the explosion. Zeltrax was battling Tommy, the black Dino thunder ranger.
"Black ranger." said Bridge.
"Time to take it to the next level." said Tommy.
"Kick his butt, Tommy!" shouted Leah as he ran up towards Zeltrax.
"Guys, I think we've got some more company." said Jack, looking behind Bridge, seeing Krybots, Orange Heads and Blue Heads surrounding them.
"Okay, what are those?" asked Bridge.
"Tyrannodrones." said Connor.
"We're out numbered." said Leah. "Too bad I can't take a picture."
"Well, let's look on the bright side." said Z. "It couldn't get any worse."
"There's our enemy, comrades." said the vine monster.
"Guys, I think it just got worse." said Jack as Leah then glares at Z.
"Wewe tu alikuwa na mshari hivyo, bila shaka?" asked Leah. "You just had to jinx it, didn't you?"
"I didn't mean to." said Z.
"Ready?" asked the vine monster.
"Come on." said the green monster.
"This will be easy." said the vine monster.
Zeltrax sends an energy blast through his sword at Tommy, causing him to be with the others. "Better late than ever." he said. "You guys ready?"
"I'm always ready, dude." said Leah.
"Black Ranger. I've read all about you." said Jack.
"With the questions she has, you'll know more." said Tommy as he motioned to Leah, before looking over her shoulder. "Time to go to work."
Zeltrax roars as he appears in front of them. "Prepare to be defeated!" said Zeltrax.
"Let's go." said Tommy.
"You don't stand a chance." he said.
"Oh yeah?" asked Leah, placing a hand on her hip. "So you're saying I could have rabies and give it to you?"
"Leah!" the others shouted.
"What? Too soon?" she asked.
"Way too soon." said Z, cuffing her head.
"Yeah…"
"Nice touch, using the T-Drones along with the Krybots." said Mora.
"Yes." said Gruumm, laughing.
"Ready!"
"Ready! S.P.D. EMERGENCY!"
"SPACE PATROL DELTA!"
"Not bad." said Connor. "Check this out."
"Ready."
"Ready! DINO THUNDER, POWER UP! HA!"
"Dino power!"
"Attack!" shouted Zeltrax.
"Let's do it." shouted the rangers.
"Okay, give it all you got." said Jack as both sides ran at each other to fight.
"You're toast, Zeltrax." said Tommy as he goes at him.
"Oh really?" said Zeltrax as both start fighting each other. Once he knocks him to the ground, he points his weapon at him. "Don't bother getting up." he said.
"Hyah!" shouted two familiar voices and shots were fired at Zeltrax.
"We thought you might need some help." said Syd.
"Let's do it!" said Sam.
"Sorry we're late!" said Cruger, reaching out to help Tommy. "But someone forgot to send us an invitation to the party."
"You know that I would never do that, Commander!" shouted Leah.
"But she's the exception." he then added as he pulls him up. "Pleasure to meet you."
"Like wise." said Tommy.
"This is better than I could have hoped for." said Gruumm as he watches the fight from his ship. "Victory is ours!"
Back in the woods, the rangers created a circle as they were cornered. "Surround them." ordered Zeltrax. "This is your end, power rangers. You are outnumbered. Look at the size of my army."
"It is true." said Cruger. "You have us outnumbered. But remember, it is not the size of the dog in the fight. It's the size of the fight in the dog. No one gets inside our circle!"
"No one gets inside!" said Jack and it started a chain reaction.
"No one gets inside!"
"No one gets inside!"
"No one gets inside!"
"You got it, commander!" said Jack.
"Attack!" shouted the vine creature and they ran towards the rangers. Soon as they attacked, they were thrown off by the rangers. The spotty eyed monster attacks Kira, causing her to duck the attack.
"Whoa!"
"Are you okay?" asked Syd.
"Let's get him!" said Kira and all four girls got him alone from the others. "Let's blast this clown!" said Syd. "Fire! Oh, yeah!"
"Alright!" shouted Leah. Trent and Sam were holding their own.
"Not bad." said Sam.
"Thanks. Check this out." said Trent and goes towards the group at lightning-fast speed.
"How about this? Omega-Morpher!" said Sam, charging up his morpher. "Electro-Mode!"
Electricity went through the ground and knocks the bots down to the ground. "Ha! That did it." said Sam.
Ethan went after the spotty eye monster with Sky and Bridge following him. "Okay, all together!" said Sky.
"Look out!" said Ethan as the spotty eyed monster fired at them.
"Fire!" shouted Sky as he and Bridge take a shot at him.
"Hyah!" shouted Zeltrax as he fires at Cruger and Tommy. Both Shadow and Black rangers went after him. "He's mine!" shouted Cruger as his Shadow Saber makes contact with Zeltrax. "That was great teamwork."
"This is no longer my battle." said Zeltrax, getting up from the ground. "But I will see you again, black ranger."
Zeltrax then disappears, leaving Cruger and Tommy confused by what he said. "We're taking you down!" said the vine monster with his team of Krybots.
"I don't think so." said Jack and turns to Connor. "Let's battilize!"
"S.P.D. BATTILIZER!"
"SHIELD OF TRIUMPH!"
"Cyber Mode!" said Jack as both he and Connor went into Battlizer mode.
"Triassic Ranger!" shouted Connor.
"Get them! Attack!" ordered the vine monster and the foot soldiers went after both red rangers. Soon as the last Krybot was defeated, the vine monster looks down at it. "Get up, you fool." he said to the damaged Krybot then looks up to see Connor and Jack run towards him.
"Oh, no."
"BATTILIZER! SONIC MODE!" shouted Jack. "Yeah!"
"BATTILIZER! PANNER!" shouted Connor.
"Fire!" they shouted as they destroyed the vine monster.
"Alright!"
"No!" said Gruumm and he wasn't pleased. "I'll go down there and finish them off myself."
"Not such a good idea, your hornship." said Mora as she stands up from the chair. "Looks like the wormhole's closing. If we don't go back, we're never going back."
"No matter, I'll defeat earth now." said Gruumm.
"Fine." Mora said. "But then you're also going to reconquer all the other galaxies and planets you've already defeated. Because, since its 2004, none of that's happened yet. So if I were you…maybe…"
"Ha!" he said, cutting her off. "Very well."
Gruumm then leaves earth and heads back to the wormhole. Back at the fight, there were still Krybots, Orange heads and Blue heads left. "This is it, rangers." said Cruger.
"R.I.C….Hyah!" shouted Jack, throwing the bone for him.
"Canine Cannon!" shouted S.P.D.
"Z-rex Blaster!" shouted Dino Thunder. Both sets of rangers aimed their weapons at the enemy. "Ready!" they shouted.
"Aim." said Connor.
"Fire." said Jack. They then shot the remaining foot soldiers, destroying them all.
"Rangers!"
(S.P.D.)
"Red."
"Blue."
"Green."
"Yellow."
"Pink."
"Purple."
"Omega."
"Shadow."
(Dino)
"Tyranno."
"Tricera."
"Ptera."
"Brachio."
"Drago."
"Power Rangers! Defenders of Earth!"
Outside of the high school, the clock chimed. "Well, guys, it's time to say goodbye." said Jack.
"So soon?" asked Connor.
"Yeah, what's the rush?" asked Kira. "You're time travelers, right? So no matter how long you stay, you can still get back at the same time."
"Did she just call us time travelers?" asked Leah.
"She did." said Bridge.
"Not true." said Z. "The wormhole's closing. We gotta go."
"Not to mention I've got some chores to do for my mom." said Leah.
"You have chores?" asked Ethan, laughing.
"You bet; I do." said Leah. "How else am I going to get an allowance?"
"Touché." said Ethan.
"I really wish I could stay." said Bridge. "I was born just last week, and I could meet myself and become my own best friend. Wait. What if I met myself and I didn't like me?"
All but Bridge looks at Leah. "What? We all know that I've been saying that I want to scan his brain." said Leah. "It's not my fault that Gruumm wants to keep us busy every week."
"We understand. You guys gotta go." said Trent. "Thanks, guys. This is something I'll always remember."
"Uh…" said Leah, then teleports into the shuttle.
"Unfortunately, we can't let you do that." said Sky.
"You're going to erase our memories, aren't you?" asked Kira.
"Yeah, we have to." said Syd. "Knowledge of the future would only change wants meant to be. For better or worse. It's gotta be like this."
"But what about her?" Ethan asked, pointing to the shuttle window of where Leah was looking out of. Cruger looks over at her.
"I made a promise to her mother that I wouldn't do it." Cruger replied. "And believe me, she's trouble enough on a daily basis as she is."
"But you guys love me anyway. Right, commander?" Leah said through the window.
"That we do." he said.
"No matter how much of a pain she is." said Z. Cruger then walks around Syd, holding something in his hand.
"Say 'Cheese'." he said to them and a blue flash appears. "School's over. Go home."
"Did that dog just talk?" Kira asked Connor.
"I-I think so." he said.
"It really doesn't seem fair that they're not going to remember any of this." said Bridge.
"I agree. It is not fair." said Cruger, watching the Dino rangers walk away. He then points it to the rest of B-Squad. "Say 'Cheese'."
"Uh, Commander?" asked Jack, looking around at 2004 earth. "Excuse me, I don't mean to sound confused. But where are we?"
"We're on a mission, Jack." said Cruger. "Now get in the shuttle and buckle up. Tell Leah to do the same thing. We have preset coordinates to take us home."
"Sounds good." said Sky.
The others walked towards the shuttle. "Now one last detail. Good thing that only Leah will remember this." he muttered to himself before wiping his memory of the team up.
"Are you coming, Commander?" asked Z.
"Uh…yeah." he said, looking around and following the others. "I'd think I better."
"Looks like a certain squad had a good mission without me." Leah said with a smile, knowing full well what exactly happened.
"I believe so." said Bridge as they entered the shuttle.
Back in 2025, Gruumm was having his conversation. "Yes…I have failed." he said. "I have underestimated the enemy. It will not happen again. That is not necessary. I can do this. Yes, your magnificence. I will prepare for your arrival."
