After Tommy, Hayley, and the teens left, Ernie made a phone call.
"Hey Ernie what's going on?" A woman asked.
"Hey Kat, is Jason there?" Ernie asked.
"No he just left for Adam's dojo," she said.
"Oh anyways, you will not believe who just stopped by,"
"My guess are Rocky, Kim, Tanya, or Tommy,"
"It was Tommy. He had a few kids with him. There was a woman with him. He claims that she is just a friend,"
"Was she a red head?"
"How do you know?"
"I met her before. They are just friends and they met in college. I think her and Billy are a couple though,"
"Billy? I have not heard anything about him since before I left. Where is he at now?"
"He is in Reefside. I think Tommy had a hand in them getting them together,"
"Anyways back to why I called, Tommy was on his way to Stone Canyon when he decided to come in and see me,"
"Why is Tommy going there?"
"He did not say,"
"Did he say anything about coming back to see anyone?"
"No he seemed like he was on a mission,"
"I see, hey Ernie, I got to go,"
"Ok I'll talk to you later," he said before they hung up.
Tommy's in town and he did not tell any of us he would be in the area? I think Kim and Jason need to know about this. She thought.
She called Kim first.
"Hey Kat, what's going on?" Kim asked.
"I just got off the phone with Ernie. A certain multicolored ex boyfriend and former Ranger leader is in town headed towards Stone Canyon with his ranger team and Hayley," Kat said.
"I know Hayley is going to Stone Canyon with the Rangers. We are going to hang out while they try to talk to the president of Bendu Toys to get them to stop making a line of Power Ranger toys,"
"Apparently the whole group was at the youth center. They just left a little bit ago. So if you want you probably can find him somewhere in town,"
"I just might do that. I'll talk to you later,"
"Ok bye," Kat said before they hung u
Meanwhile road construction detour caused Tommy to go through more of Angel Grove then he would of liked to. He stopped at a red light when he and Trent looked at the building to their left.
"The black frog Dojo? Sounds like a former Ranger owns it," Trent said.
"Yeah one does, and I may not make it out of town alive if he knows I am here," Tommy said.
Before the light turn green, Jason walked out while talking on his cellphone.
"I see him at the stoplight in front of the dojo. His Ranger boys are with him," Jason said.
He lowered the phone and yelled Tommy's name.
"Busted," Tommy mumbled.
Jason walked up to the jeep.
"You came to town and did not tell anybody?" Jason said.
"I think I should pull over," Tommy said.
He turned down the next street and park Hayley followed.
"You did not think you would get out of town unnoticed did you bro?" Jason asked.
"I decided to see Ernie and some road construction brought us here" Tommy said.
"THOMAS OLIVER YOU DID NOT JUST TRY TO COME INTO TOWN AND LEAVE WITHOUT SAYING HELLO TO ANY OF US DID YOU?" Kim yelled from across the street.
"Hi Kim," Tommy said.
"Don't you hi Kim me. If it wasn't for Kat and Ernie, you would of gotten away with your little trip without us knowing!" She said.
"I think I am going to call my grandparents to see if they are home so they can come and pick me up," Ethan said.
"Good luck getting out of this," Trent said.
"Yea no kidding," Ethan said while dialing his grandparents number.
"Hey Ethan," A man on the other end said.
"Uncle Zack what are you doing at grandpa and grandma's house?" Ethan asked.
"Can't a man visit his parents every now and then? By the way how's you field trip?" Zack asked.
"Not so great, wait how do you know about it?" Ethan asked.
"I talked to your mom earlier this morning," Zack said.
"Its not exactly what she thinks it is," Ethan said.
"What do you mean?" Zack asked.
"We were planning on going to Stone Canyon, but on ranger business," Ethan said.
"So where are you at now?" Zack asked.
"Trying to get away from an angry original pink ranger ripping into Dr. O outside the Black Frog Dojo," Ethan said.
"I am on my way there," Zack said before he hung up.
"Great," Ethan said.
"Your not going anywhere are you?" Katie asked.
"Nope, this ranger reunion is about to get bigger," Ethan said.
"Don't tell me someone else is coming," Tommy said.
"Nobody else is coming Dr. O," Ethan sheepishly said.
"Who is it?" Tommy asked.
"Uncle Zack," Ethan said.
"Well at least he lives in LA, we should be able to get out of town before he gets here," Tommy said.
"Yeah about that," Ethan said as Zack pulled up.
"Tommy, nice cover up story for the parents," Zack said when he closed his car door.
"Man Zack you must of flew from LA," Tommy said.
"No man, I was at my parents house when Ethan called," Zack said.
Tommy just looked at Ethan.
"He got here before I could tell you," Ethan said.
"Great, who is next?' Tommy asked.
"Hey can you keep it down out there, I am trying to teach a class! Oh hey Tommy, what brings you here?" Adam asked when he opened the door to the dojo.
"Now you see why I did not come back in?" Jason asked.
"Long story short, we were on our way to Stone Canyon when I went to visit Ernie. Wait, who did Ernie call to start this reunion?" Tommy asked.
"That would be me!" Kat said as she walked down the street.
Great not only would I be in trouble if I make a move on Kat, I just might get smacked upside the head by a pregnant woman. Conner thought when he got a good look at her.
"Hi Kat," Tommy sheepishly said.
"Don't you hi Kat me! Did you really think you could get out of town without us knowing?" Kat asked.
"I said the same thing!" Kim said.
Well not exactly the same thing but close. Tommy thought.
"Well it is nice to see all of you again, but we have to get to Stone Canyon.
"Not so fast, did you think you could get away with out seeing any of us?" Kim asked
"Aw do we have to Dr. O?" Conner asked.
"If we don't, I see a F for you in my class," Tommy said.
The rangers and Hayley left town without anymore stops. When they got to Stone Canyon, Tommy called Billy to ask him who to ask for. When everyone found a parking spot Tommy and the boys went to find a place to morph. Kira and Katie morphed in Hayley's car before getting out.
"Ok let me do all the talking guys," Tommy said before they walked in.
I think Mr. Mendoza is in trouble. The secretary thought when the rangers walked in.
"Excuse me, we would like to have a word with Mr. Mendoza," Tommy said.
The sectary called his office.
"Right sir, I'll send them right up. If you take the elevator to the fourth floor, his office is at the end of the hallway," she said.
"Thank you," Tommy said before they went on the elevator.
When they walked into the office, Tommy was surprised at who was sitting at the desk.
Richie is the president? He thought.
"Aw the Power Rangers, let me guess you want me to put a stop to the toys right?" Richie asked.
"IF YOU DON'T WE WILL SUE!" Conner said.
"Easy now Red Ranger. Now Mr. Mendoza, that is exactly why we came here. None of us were asked to have our likeness made into toys. Now will you please stop?" Tommy asked.
"First off, call me Richard. Second, I did not mean any harm. I recently became the president of this company. You see, I am a third generation president and CEO. During my sophomore year at Angel Grove University, my dad decided to make me his successor someday. That day came a lot sooner then we expected. The ranger toy line was my first idea as president. I guess it was a bad idea to start out with. I'll put a stop to the production and all promotions now," he said.
While Richie made a few phone calls Tommy sent Hayley a text telling her to come pick up the girls. He thought that by the time they got outside Hayley would either be their or close.
"Ok it's final. As soon as the stores run out, no more Power Rangers toys," he said.
"Thank you," Tommy said shaking hands with Richie.
After the Rangers got out of the building they waited a few minutes until she pulled up. Hayley got out of the car while a woman in the front passenger seat rolled down her window.
"I picked up a hitchhiker along the way. I have to make a stop in Angel Grove before I take the girls home," Hayley smirked.
"Or maybe I'll go with you straight to Reefside," the woman said.
"I am ok with that!" A happy Conner said.
Katie rolled down the back passenger window with a look that could kill.
"Hayley did you have to drive back to Angel Grove to hang out with Kim?" Tommy asked.
"What else was I going to do while you were in the meeting?" She asked while the girls got in the car.
