And now on to the story.
It was the evening of 31st of December, New Years eve and the Rangers had been cordially invited to the Morgenstern Winter retreat.
Music came from the lounge area where the other Rangers where as currently, Henry was standing in the kitchen while he was on videocall. Holding up his phone so the magnificent view of the white mountain range could be seen in all it's beauty.
"I can't get over how great the view is." Phillip said through the videocall.
"I know right." Henry said as he used his free hand to get himself a new beer from the large fridge, "I've been coming here since I was a wee little Henry, but even now I still find it breathtaking."
"Your breathtaking." Shelby said with a laugh when she came into the kitchen to get another drink.
"No, your breathtaking!" Henry said with a laugh of his own as he gestured at his friend before turning to the phone, "It's a shame you couldn't come, Phillip."
"I know." Phillip said over the phone, "Let's celebrate new years in Zandar next year."
"Hey, I have Shelby with me as a witness." Henry said with a smirk, "I'm going to hold you to that."
Phillip laughed, "I need to go... I hate giving speeches." he said before hanging up.
Once the call ends, Henry pocket his phone before he and Shelby rejoined the others in the living room.
The other Rangers where sitting in the lounge area, taking some drinks and playing a board game Chase had brought along.
The board was laid out on the table with a big spinning wheel in the middle, which could land on taking a Shot, a Dare card, a Truth card or Traitor which would force another player to drink or make another player take a Dare.
"So... do twins have same sized dicks?" a drunk Koda said.
"Now we're asking the real questions." Chase said, holding up his beer.
"As a twin, I can say my dick is definitely bigger than my sister's." Henry said as he sat down in his seat.
"Alright my turn." Kendall said as she spun the wheel.
Becoming a Ranger had been a good thing for her. While still her strict, no-nonsense self. She had become a lot more casual and willing to goof around a bit with the other Rangers.
Though no power in the universe was able to grand Kendall Morgan the ability to actually hold her alcohol. It had been two drinks and a half and she was already wasted.
The wheel came to a stop on Truth, with Chase taking a card from the pile, "What is a fantasy of yours?" he read out loud.
Kendall stood up before announcing loudly, "I wish to make love to Henry on live television!"
The Rangers looked surprisingly in awe at her before turning to Henry, who's mind was running on all cylinders as neither he nor Kendall had actually told anyone of their situation and it was still best to be kept a secret. Mostly on insistence of Kendall.
"Its always the nerds who are the kinky one." Ana said before taking a sip from her red wine.
"Come on, have you seen me?" Henry said smugly as he held out his arms, "I would fuck me." before he spun the wheel which came to a stop on Truth.
"Alright." Shelby said picking a card from the Truth pile, "If you had to choose one person in this room to die, who would it be?"
"Riley!" Henry said without missing a beat and pointing at the confused young man in green, "Men should be able to face their death head-on."
"Oh that's fine. I'd kill you, too, Henry!" Riley said annoyed, "I'd kill you for fun, even if I didn't have to!"
"Okay, why don't we play another game." Tyler said a bit uneasy as he turned to his friend, "Right, Koda?"
"I'd kill Riley too." Koda said while nodding after thinking about it, much to Henry's amusement.
"All right, that's great." Riley muttered as he sat back in the leather seat, "You know what? I don't want to play this game anymore."
"Why Riley? What is it about this game..." Henry said as he leaned in until his face was right next to his young friend's, "That frightens you?"
"I'm not frightened, Henry!" Riley protested, a bit unease that an attractive man was in kissing distance.
Pushing Henry back, Riley reached out and spun the wheel and managing to land on Traitor, "You know what? Fine." Riley said, "Henry, I dare you to... Smash that vase over your head!"
"What? That vase?" Henry said pointing at it, "No problem!"
"Henry Morgenstern, no!" Ana told him.
But her brother was just too fast. The moment she got that sentence out, Henry had already gotten out of his seat, ran across the room and grabbed the vase from the nearby table before smashing it down over his head with enough force to shatter it on impact so shards of porcelain rained everywhere.
"You see how easy that was, Riley?" Henry said, blood dripping down from atop his head.
"Dear god..." Riley muttered shocked that his friend would actually do it, "You're bleeding."
"You see how easy that was!? I never cower in the face of danger." Henry said before he turned to Shelby, "Is it my turn now!?"
"Yes, it is." Shelby said slightly terrified.
"I dare Ivan..." Henry said pointing to the knight, "To strike me!"
"What? You didn't even spin the wheel." Ivan said sitting up, "And why are you suddenly going after me?"
"I'm feeling an energy from you... like you wanna fight me, man." Henry said, holding out his arms, "So, hit me."
"No, we're done." Ana said immediately grabbing a hold of Ivan's arm, "You always do this, Henry. You take board games way too far."
"I make them fun!" Henry protested turning from his sister to his friend, "Come on, Ivan! Hit me!"
"No, don't." Shelby warned him.
"Fight him, Ivan!" Chase shouted.
"What is happening!?" Riley said confused.
Ivan shot up from his seat and with a wide but powerful swing of his trained arm, he punched Henry right in his jaw.
"Yeah!" Henry shouted feeling a little dazed but alive, "Feeling better?"
"I actually kind of do!" Ivan said, "Good idea, Henry."
"The only kinds I have!" Henry said as he and the Gold Ranger shook hands like bro's do.
"Guys!" Koda said, pointing to the television.
The screen displayed a countdown to midnight, they still had a few more minutes before they would be entering the new year.
"Alright does everyone have a drink?" Henry said as he stood in front of the television, "Good, good!"
The Rangers raised their glasses and cans, as Henry started to give a speech.
"Sometimes it feels like it was just yesterday, when we found our Energems, when we met at the Museum and when we became Power Rangers. And yet other times like it has been forever." Henry said, "But either way everything that happened has been incredible. And with Sledge defeated, the world is safe. By the summer, we can return to our normal life's. But I wanted to say, I've been proud to have met each and everyone of you. With the things we've been through, the good and the bad. We've become more than just co-workers and friends. We have become a family."
"We love you too, Henry!" Tyler said.
"And even though we are family, nothing is stopping us from sleeping with each other." Henry said.
"Like you don't have experience with that." Chase muttered.
"What was that?" Kendall said sharply.
"Nothing, Ms. Morgan." Chase said quickly.
"Anyways, here's to another great year." Henry said as he raised his glass as he cheered with the group.
It was ten seconds to midnight, and the Rangers counted down until the new year. And when the clock struck midnight, they cheered and laughed as they yelled, "Happy new year!"
Henry gave a hug to Koda, who lifted him off the ground with his caveman strength. But when he was put down, he saw something that made him give the biggest, happiest yell of his life.
In the corner, he saw two of his most favorite people in the world, two people he had been setting up on dates and had been trying to pair up ever since she had told him she actually liked the other. He saw Tyler and Shelby kissing, full on the mouth. He could have sworn he even saw some tongue action in there.
But what the Rangers didn't know, was that another danger would soon turn it's head.
It had been a few weeks since the new year started. It was a day off for Henry. He was laying down on his sofa, typing something on his phone. He looked up when he felt a tap on his shoulder.
Henry looked behind him, surprised to see Kendall. Well her being in his house wasn't a surprise, but what was surprising was seeing her hair being pulled into a ponytail along with short pants and a purple top and sprinting sneakers.
"Kendall, you should wear workout clothes more often." Henry said with an approving smile, "Very nice."
"This isn't for your benefit, Henry." Kendall said, "This is for science."
"Sexy science." Henry said, putting his phone away.
"Focus Morgenstern!" Kendall scolded snapping her fingers in front of his face, "I have this theory about Ranger powers. Tyler, Koda, Ivan, Ana and you, are the strongest members we have."
"It's true, we are awesome." Henry said proudly, "Where are you going with this?"
"I think the reason you are the strongest is because you five are the most physical capable. My theory is that Ranger powers amplify what is already there." Kendall said, "I wish to test this theory by toughening myself up and seeing if there is any gains in my data. And I was hoping you'd be able to help me with that since it's quite obvious you do a really good job." glancing at his firm and muscular body that wasn't hidden by a shirt.
"Sure thing." Henry said with a smile, "Let's start with a warm up."
After jogging in place and stretching, Henry started Kendall off with some crunches, he held her feet in place as she performed the exercise, although after about ten of them, Kendall didn't come back up.
"I can already feel my core burning." she whined.
"Come on Kendall." Henry said, "I know you can squeeze in ten more."
"No way!"
Henry thought for a minute and then had a sneaky idea, "Hey, for every sit up you do, I'll reward you with something." he said.
"O-ok, I'll try." she said.
Putting her hands behind her head, Kendall strained herself to get another sit-up done, once she was finally sitting up, Henry leaned in and gave her a peck on the lips.
Kendall just sat there with a flabbergasted look and a face that rivaled a cherry, she stuttered before managing a coherent sentence, "What the fuck was that!?"
"A kiss." Henry said.
She glared and lightly bonked his head, "Nine more to go Kendall." he said.
"I-I can't." Kendall said, she tried to pull her feet away from Henry's clutches, "Let go!"
"Fine, if you're not gonna do it." he said, letting go of her feet only to grab her shoulders and gently push her down onto the floor as he towered over her on his hands and knees, "Then you can help me out with my workout."
"What do you mean with that?" she said.
Henry ignored her question and moved his hands next to her head as he got into a plank position. As he did his first pushup, he gave Kendall a peck on the lips before raising himself up again. He continued this for about five more sets until Kendall stopped him by pushing against his chest with her hands.
"W-why?" she quietly asked, "Just why Henry? Why would you like someone like me?"
For a moment, Henry stayed in his plank position, then he lowered himself just enough to be only inches away from Kendall's face, "Who says I like you? I'm doing it for the amazing sex." Henry said, "Seriously though, I like you because your smart, you know what you want, you can stand up to me and my sarcasm. Also you have a great ass."
Kendall blush lit up her cheeks, "On the bed." she told him, "Now."
In a yellow blur, Henry disappeared from his spot before reappearing on his bed without any clothes.
The next day, Henry was driving back into town, having picked up a car for the upcoming trip with the other Rangers.
"Wait, hold on." Henry said as he was on his phone with Shelby, using a handsfree device, "Your taking accounting and marketing?"
"Yeah, not sure if it what I want but my parents think it's best for me." Shelby said, "And like how a smart person once said, 'Your going to collage to find out what you don't want to do with your life'."
"Who said that?" Henry said.
"You did." Shelby said.
"When did I do that?" he said surprised.
Dropping the vehicle off at his place, Henry ran towards to museum but not before stopping to pick up a snack on the way. Munching on the chocolate bar, he looked around for his fellow Rangers but it seemed none of them where at work.
"And Kendall has the nerve to call me out for being lazy." Henry said shaking his head.
Greeting a few of the other museum workers, asking if they had seen any of the Rangers but none of them did.
He stepped out to the loading bay area where he saw one of the museum truck, one badly banged up, driving and breaking towards the lot. Henry watched as he saw the truck came to a stop when he crashed into a few wooden containers before Koda came stumbling out from behind the steering wheel.
"Hey, Koda." Henry said, "I don't think your allowed to..."
"Henry!" Koda said happily as he rushed over and lifted him off the ground in a bear hug.
"...I think I broke a few ribs." Henry groaned as he was set down, "Yeah, definitely a few ribs."
"So good you here." Koda said before he began to explain, "We lost contact with Tyler. We went looking but monster attacked."
"A monster attack?" Henry said as he rubbed his side, "But Sledge was destroyed... Wasn't he? Let's go to the lab."
"I tried contacting Shelby and Riley." Koda said, "They not answering." as they took the slide entrance.
Taking the slide down, Henry at once went to Kendall's console where he began to track down their missing friends and sending a warning to the remaining Rangers.
"It all my fault." Koda said, sitting down in a chair.
"Why would you say that?" Henry said as he walked away from the console, pulling up a seat to sit across from him.
"I tried to fight against ice, but it bring back many scary memories from long time ago." Koda explained, "I saved my little brother from sabretooth tiger, but I fell off the cliff. Then I was frozen in ice for 100,000 years."
"Yeah, I sometimes forget that your older than me, like a lot older." Henry admitted, "But you have lived less than me."
"Ice come up my arms, want to catch me again. I escaped ice, then I run away." Koda said as he glanced down to the ground, "I'm not like you, I cower in face of danger."
"Koda, being brave isn't about having no fear." Henry said kindly, placing a hand on his shoulder, "But being able to act in spite of your fears."
Suddenly they heard a noise coming from Kendall's computer, and in a blur of yellow, Henry appeared behind it.
"What is happening, Henry?" Koda said as he stood up and joined him at the console.
"We found the other Rangers." Henry said as he read the screen, "They are in the warehouse district."
"Why is always warehouse district." Koda said, "Or abandon quarry?"
"That's a good one." Henry admitted, "I'm confused by that one as well."
Over at the warehouse district, the alien Henry, Tyler and Shelby had run into during their first day at Amber Beach, Iceage. It was there that he had trapped Tyler, Shelby, Chase, Riley, Ivan and Kendall in blocks of ice. But the ice alien was startled when it's new boss appeared.
"Master Snide, I got six of the Rangers." Iceage said, "Soon I will have the other two."
Snide was an ammonite-themed alien with a metallic dark gray body covered in small blue stones, a red chest cavity, and pincer-like shoulder pads with small white orbs located in them.
"Yes, and then I will have all the Energems." Snide said, wielding a black sword in his hand.
But before the two aliens could do much against the frozen Rangers, they where bombarded by a large explosion sending them flying back. Jumping down from one of the warehouse buildings, it was the two remaining Rangers, who had used their blasters in their surprise attack.
The Rangers turned around, putting another Dino Charger in their blasters before unfreezing the other Rangers.
"Henry! Koda!" Shelby said relieved.
"The Energems." the recovered Snide said as the Rangers stood ready to fight, "The keys to my past, present and future."
"Who the fuck are you?" Yellow Ranger said.
"I am Snide." the new enemy said, before turning to his follower, "Iceage, get their Energems!"
"Ice them and dice them." Iceage said as he stepped forward.
"This will be the last time you hear these words." Kendall said as she took out her own Morpher, "It's Morphing Time."
With that, the other Rangers Morphed, Iceage called forth a group of Vivixs.
The Yellow Ranger used one of Kendall's new Dino Charges to transform his main weapon into a dragon themed rocket launcher.
"Say what you want, But Kendall knows how to make a weapon." Yellow Ranger said impressed as he looked at his new toy, "Now let's find out if I'm pointing this rocket launcher the right way."
"Wait, Henry no!" Green Ranger said, standing behind him.
"Henry yes!" Yellow yelled before launching a large energy sphere, disintegrating a group of Vivix on impact.
The kickback of the weapons end him sliding back. Yellow looked amazed at the weapon before transforming back into his blaster.
Snide attacked, firing vertical laser from his sword, though the Rangers expertly dodged. Yellow Ranger went on the offensive, pressing Snide back as he blocked a strike with his blaster. As he threw another punch, Snide caught it turning Yellow around and slash him across his back, sending sparks flying everywhere.
As Yellow fell down, he managed to blast Snide, knocking the sword from his hand. Suddenly, a cyan light erupted from Snide's neck.
The alien growled something under his breath, before making his escape.
Yellow got back to his feet before joining his friends.
Purple Ranger dodged one of the alien's attack by sliding on her knees under it before slicing them down with her blade as she went. Yellow watched as he saw the Purple Ranger cut lose, making full use of her arsenal. Fighting his way through another group, Blue Ranger punched through the frost of Iceage, grabbing the alien by the claws before gripping down before smashing them to bits.
Blue Ranger lifted Iceage off the ground and slamming him down so hard that he left a crater and bounced up.
The group combined their weapon, and with one last massive blast of energy, Iceage was finished off, hopefully for good this time.
Later that day in the meeting room, where the other Rangers save Henry where already present. It seems none of them knew either why Henry had called them there. They had Ranger business to discuss but that was usual best talked about in the confides of the Command Lab.
"Sorry I'm late." Henry said as he walked in, "I really needed to go number two."
"T.M.I., Henry." Kendall said annoyed.
"And I needed to go number four." he said with a smirk.
The Rangers looked confused but before Henry could speak up, Kendall was the first to speak, "Before we go to whatever Henry needs of us, I need to say a few things." she said turning to their favorite caveman, "Koda, I remember when we rescued you from the glacier you were in. How you were very afraid of ice. Thank you for being so brave today."
"I thought my biggest fear was ice but my biggest fear is losing my new family." Koda said with his trademark goofy smile, "So I took dad's advice and face my fears head on."
"He sees me as his dad." Henry said, clearly touched, "If I had a son, I wish he would be like Koda... except I don't want children."
"Why not, sir Henry?" Ivan said.
"Because their hideous little creatures. Terrible, taxing burdens." Henry said with a roll of his eyes, "Alright as for the reason I called you here. I want each of you to cancel your plans for the first weekend of next month. If you had any plans, anyway. Because I know some of you, not going to state any names, don't have much of a life outside of this museum."
"...I feel that's still a dig aimed at me." Kendall said annoyed.
"Because it is!" Koda said and Henry nodded at him, "What's so important?"
"We are going on a trip." Henry said, "For the best curry you will ever taste. Even better then mine."
"Oh, that sounds like a delight!"
Henry looked around confused at the new voice, staring at the end of the table which the Rangers followed.
Sitting at the end of the table, was a young man with a particular dressing sense, having a few blue streaks in his brown hair and a pair of goggles hanging around his neck.
"Who the fuck is this?" Henry said.
"Henry, this is Heckle." Kendall introduced them, "The new waiter at the Dino Café."
"Oh yeah, the new guy." Henry said.
"A pleasure to meet you, B. Man." Heckle said with a wave, "I'm looking forward to this trip!"
"Sorry Heckle." Henry said, "But this trip isn't for side characters."
"Henry!" Kendall said even more annoyed, "You can't keep referring to employees you aren't friends with as side characters!"
"Why not?" Henry said, "I keep referring to Toby like that and he's not doing anything!"
There you go, hope you enjoyed. Many thanks to everyone who reads, reviews, favorite, or follows this story, you beauties.
