To those that have stayed with me through both the Streaks of Purple Saga and the Spectrum Force series, thank you! See? I told you there were more books to come! I've decided to go back to editing the Power Ranger Fanfiction I wrote back in the day to book format and The Terran Rangers are kind of my own take on Power Rangers Zeo. I hope you all continue to stick with me through this series. Again, thank you to all the readers and the people that have supported me over this project through the years! Luvs to you all!
I know what you're thinking. "Oh no, Heather wrote another
fanfic to song lyrics!"
Well, fooled ya! This is a Terran Rangers fanfiction with guest appearances of characters from Marvel Comics, and it had nothing to do with Cyndie Lauper's song. I bet you can guess who the Marvel characters are. This fanfiction also includes heavy references to other fics I've written. In order to understand this story, I suggest you read the following stories (if for some odd reason you've been living under a rock, and haven't read them already)
:
*"Manipulation"
*"Flash Forward"
*"Mutations"
Enjoy the story!
February 7, 2009
It had been over two years since the fateful day when the Temporal Comet flew past Earth, bringing the infamous Rita Repulsa and Lord Zedd with it. The re-surfacing of these villains forced the long-retired Terran Power Rangers to retake their awesome powers and Zords to confront the invading monsters. After but one battle, Lord Zedd and Rita Repulsa left again, and did not return. But, there was always the possibility that they may. Or perhaps another malevolent alien race may attempt to conquer Earth.
After the Power Rangers saved three world-famous NASA astronauts, they announced to the whole world that they would remain active superheroes, and would try to protect the Earth from any blight, whether it be war, pestilence, famine, or invasion. They quickly became international heroes, appearing at numerous peace talks, at celebrity gatherings to raise money for the poor and underprivileged, dealing with various terrorists, diffusing numerous hostage situations, and even going on worldwide patrol in their amazing Terrazords, to insure the public that someone was looking out for them.
Of course, the identities of these six heroes is still a mystery. The only way for the Power Rangers to be contacted was from the United Nations building in New York City, where a highly advanced computer system is kept, which can contact the heroes via their communicators.
Since the time the Power Rangers resurfaced, the lives of a select group of men and women, and also their respective families, had gotten incredibly complicated. After their last battle against evil, they decided to remain heroes and do what they could to keep the peace.
Trini Kwan and William Mitchell were married only months after the incident, and presently Trini was pregnant with their first child.
Zachary Taylor retired from his Olympic career, because it took too much of his time and energy. Now, he was a sports newscaster, who occasionally made celebrity appearances. He now lived in Los Angeles, a mere hour's drive from Angel Grove, the city that changed his life more than any other.
Adam Park was still a major action star, but he had eased up on his schedule. Instead of making three movies a year, which he used to do, he now starred in only one a year, on average. Also, he was engaged to be married to his longtime love Tanya Sloan, who only recently returned to the United States after living in Nairobi.
Jason Lee, now the father of a two year old daughter Brittany, was the captain of the Angel Grove Police Force.
Kimberly Hart-Monroe, the world-famous fashion designer, was the one charged with communicating with the UN, since she lived in New York City. Kimberly's life took a drastic turn when two years ago, her husband Trevor Monroe disappeared without a trace. She hadn't heard from him since.
Thomas Oliver was still a Native American Studies professor at Princeton University in New Jersey, but due to his secret Power Ranger business, he had little time for anything else. His fiance Vanessa Stevens left him because he was spending far too much time with his old friends, and repeatedly left during their dates without a good reason. When Vanessa left Thomas, he realized that he didn't truly love her. Eventually, he fell in love again, this time with his high school friend and now bride-to-be Katherine Hillard.
Katherine decided to move back to the States from Australia, and took a job as an Astrophysics professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and she also guest-lectured throughout the country. She spent a lot of time with Kimberly and Thomas since they all lived in the general area, especially once Kim's husband disappeared. Katherine's attraction towards Thomas resurfaced after over a decade of denying it, and this time Thomas felt the same way about her. So Thomas proposed to her four months ago. Now, the couple was in New York to visit an old friend and pick up some necessities for their wedding, which will take place on February 14 in Angel Grove, California.
Katherine Hillard was sitting patiently in the luxurious 80th floor office of the CEO of the Hart Fashion Industry, which specialized in men's and women's evening wear. Katherine felt uncomfortable sitting on the plush chair in the spacious room. Even though Kimberly had been her close friend for over a decade, she had always felt a little jealous of Kim, mostly due to Kat's own loneliness. Now, one week before her wedding, she began to wonder if the tables had turned. For the past two years, Kimberly had been suffering horribly at the disappearance of her husband, Trevor Monroe. Even though Kim didn't show her pain, her friends could still tell how lonely she was. Meanwhile, Katherine had finally won the heart of the man she had loved dearly for over a decade, who just happened to be Kimberly's first true love. Now, Kat felt especially uncomfortable with Kim, even though Kimberly had taken the news quite well.
"Okay, Kat," said Kimberly, pushing through the door with a huge box in her arms, "here's my wedding present! I hope you like it!"
Kat smiled at Kimberly's enthusiasm. Even though Kimberly was just over thirty, she still had the energy and spirit of a teenager. Kat knelt on the floor and opened the box. She shrieked when she saw the magnificent wedding gown Kimberly had given her.
"My goodness, Kim!" she sighed, holding up the dress and looking into Kimberly's wall-sized mirror. "It's the most exquisite dress I've ever seen! You shouldn't have!"
"Why not, Kat," said Kim, shrugging. "After all you and Tommy have done for me the past two years, it's nothing. I hope you have a happy and long life together. Now quick, try it on!"
Katherine grinned at her friend, and carried the dress to the adjacent bathroom. In a few minutes, she stepped out, her blue business suit replaced by the pearly white French silk gown. It was sleeveless, with a low back that clung to Kat's body. It was silk with delicate lace embroidery, with shimmering blue sapphires scattered in intricate patterns throughout the lace. At the hips, the gown spread loosely, with layers of delicate silk down to the ground. At her hips was a row of pink silken roses, connecting the flowing skirt to the rest of the gown. Snowy white opera gloves with pink roses at the trim complemented the gown perfectly. The gown fit Katherine like a glove, and Kat stared at herself in the mirror, absolutely taken aback by the beauty of the gown.
"You look spectacular, Kat," said Kim quietly, taking pride in her latest creation. Kimberly could design any kind of outfit imaginable, and could make anyone look good.
"Kim, this is way more elegant than the gown you designed for Trini last year."
"Yeah, well Trini is very reserved, and they wanted to keep the wedding simple. You, on the other hand, like to make a scene, so I thought this was more your style. Anyway," said Kimberly, walking to her wall and taking a French painting off, revealing a
