"wanting to remember and forget" (Dillon)

[vinceryder]

Vince's life had changed in a matter of days and would never be the same again. He had met Kimberly and Tommy Oliver, two of the original six power rangers. Not only had Vince met them, he had become one of them. He was now the white mighty morphin power ranger and the commander of the tigerzord. Vince was alone still. He did not have any friends his own age. For that matter unless he counted Tommy and Kim he didn't have any friends at all. Vince just decided to walk in the park since he was alone anyway. After walking for about an hour in his torn Hoodie, t-shirt and cargo pants he decided to stop at a bench. As he sat he took off the pocket watch that hung around his neck and opened it.

Vince just sighed as he looked at the inscription inside as he felt a lump begin to build in his throat. He missed his parents but hopefully he was making them proud by being a hero. As he stared at his ticking watch he began to invision the day of his parents death. He sighed and sat on the top of the bench and put his feet in the seat and just closed his watch and held it as he watched the happy families laugh and play.

"So Unfair.."

[dillon]

Dillon had been sitting on the hood of his car. Looking around the desert landscape that was earth. It was the end of the war thankfully and things had begun to heal. He was out here wandering around to try and figure things out. He still had no idea of his past or who he really was. The watch he held in his hands had been returned to him after a return visit to Corinth. This time he took it back hoping that he would have more luck with it than without it. Tenaya and Summer were off doing their own thing which was why he was here. He sighed deeply and rubbed his face.

Closing the watch he slid to his feet and walked to the driver side door. Time to get moving. He was on his way back to Corinth to check in. Being a ranger had it's perks and then it had it's drawbacks. He was just glad it was quite for the most part .The odd rouge Venjix attack bot here and there or group of grinders. Mainly it was clearing out old Venjix buildings and whatnot. As he closed the door to his car he was blinded momentarily. When his vision cleared he saw trees, grass, roadways and people.......what the hell just happened?

He sat there, looking through the dusty windshield of his car at the scenery. This was not where he had been. This was not like anywhere he knew near Corinth. People running about, the trees and grass. Little did he know that the same flash that blinded him would draw the attention of someone else in the area. This person thankfully would be someone that would know him just for the fact his morpher would be picked up as it re-acquired it's settings.

[vinceryder]

As Vince sat on the bench and watched the families his Communicator began to go off like crazy. Vince looked around for what could have caused his communicator to go all glitched. As he looked around he saw a major flash of light for just a moment that blinded him causing him to fall off the bench. As the flash ended he saw a black sports car that came out of no where. Vince quickly stood up and ran to the car and as he got closer his communicator beeped again. This what was caused the glitch but how did it get here. Vince looked around the and then peeked through the window and saw a man on the inside. Upon further inspection of the man he noticed he a type of machine attached to his wrist, It was a type of morpher! The guy was a ranger!

"Holy crap! Where did you come from man!"

Vince then paused as he began to hear the sound of Gears and then several screams causing him to spin around to see a bunch of what looked like machine men running around breaking things. Vince had never seen anything like them He didn't need to know what they were. All he needed to know is that they were bad and he needed to stop them. He just looked back at the man and then sighed and called so he could hear.

"I think who ever your bad guy is decided to follow you here!"

Vince then without thinking ran into the group of machine men and shoved and kicked them away from the people so they could get away. As he hit them however he noticed that they were hard. Hitting them kind of hurt. Vince had to power through however. Vince saw that one of the machine men's blades slices a pole and it fell to the ground. Vince quickly ran and jumped over the machine and grabbed it and spun it knocking down a few of the monsters. Vince needed help. Hopefully the visitor was a good guy.

[dillon]

He didn't see the teenager come running up. He was still staring out at the wonderful landscape. This was amazing. He looked down when his morpher finished it's reset and then heard the voice. He turned seeing the young man. ' Holy Crap! Where did you come from man? ' That was a question alright. Where did he come from? This certainly wasn't Corinth. But he didn't have time to respond as the teen turned at the sound of screams and destruction. He opened the door to his car and came out.

He stopped when he was out and watched the scene. The teen that ran up to him ran into....Grinders! Where did they come from? He wasn't around them when he got in to head for Corinth. He saw the act the teen did for the people. But he knew these things. So he grit his teeth and charged in as well. Thankfully he was just a bit better equipped for this. He jumped over a fallen grinder and came down with a hard punch into the head of another. Cracking it's head as he came down and flowed into a kick.

He moved with purpose. This young man was fighting something he had never seen before. Never fought before and wasn't scared. Almost as if he was used to it. He did speak though when he got close to him. " These things are Grinders. Androids. Don't hold back. " He continued to fight along side the young man. Taking out two more grinders as he still tried to figure out how or why he was here. As well as how and why these things were here as well. He just hoped nothing bigger followed them. That could be a problem.

[vinceryder]

Vince grinned as the man from the black sports car joined him in the defending of the park. Vince's jaw dropped as the man was able to bust one of the what the man called grinders heads and was amazed this guy was strong. Vince just grinned and got back to back with the man with an excited grin. Vince spun the pole he had picked up like a staff and knocked down some more grinders by hitting them in the heads and then knocking their feet out from under them. As Vince knocked down some more grinders however he heard a loud growling sound and watched as a giant crocodile machine appeared smashing cars.

"This is getting fun! Names Vince! It looks like they wanna shift this little party into a higher gear. How about we bust out our own hardware!"

Vince smiled because all of the people were now gone and the coast was clear. He pulled out his morpher happily grinning from ear to ear because of the pure excitement he was feeling. He had only gotten to morph once but he loved it. Vince held up his morpher.

"It's morphin time! Tigerzord!"

Vince then morphed into the white ranger and then struck a battle pose and pointed at the monster and the rest of the cogs and then gave them a thumbs down and pulled out his sword and looked back at the man and back at the monster.

"Prepare to go to the scrap heep! your dealing with the white mighty morphin power ranger now!"

Vince then patted the mans shoulder sword in hand and ran for the group of enemies and jumped into the air and kicked a few down while landing. Once he did he sliced down the rest of the grinders but had to jump back quickly when the monster chomped it's jaws at him.
"It's time to recycle this beast! You in man?"

[dillon]

At least half the grinders were down and broken. He turned at the sound from behind him and saw the beast. Great. Just absolutely wonderful. They brought a big one with them. He nodded at the suggestion of bringing out the hardware. So the young man was a ranger. And he soon found out he was a ranger he had not heard of before. But that wasn't surprising since he didn't know much about anything really. He brought his left hand up to the right of his head. " Rpm! Get in Gear! "His right hand came up hitting the shift on his rev morpher. Letting his left hand down he transformed into the Black Ranger. He took his fighting stance and pulled out his rocket blaster.

Time to take out the grunts. Getting them out of the way first would be the best and give them plenty of time to deal with the big one. He opened fire as Vince jumped back from the croc monster. Rushing forward, blasting he jumped over the beast still firing. When he landed he turned as the last of the grinders fell into smoking heaps. The next came as a challenge to not only the croc monster, but to vince as well. " Show me what you got. " He came up in a defensive stance now to see what would happen. The monster was flanked with him behind and Vince in front.

[vinceryder]

Vince grinned happily under his helmet as he watched the boy morph. He was a black ranger of a team he hadn't heard of before. Like the monsters he was also vehicle themed. That was cool. Vince watched as the man ran into battle without fear. He then grinned as the man challenged him. Vince just nodded happily and ran at the croc monster as it slashed at him. Vince quickly jumped and pushed himself off of the monsters claw and then slashed downward onto the monsters head and then ducked down upon landing and then slashed upward and then straightened quickly and kicked the monster back pushing himself back in the process. He then threw his sword up into the air and pulled out his blade blaster and shot at the monster.

"How do you like that Black?"

Vince then caught his sword and put his blaster back but as he did the croc sent a claw shaped laser blast at Vince. He quickly put up his blade as defense but was pushed back onto his back. He grunted and stood shaking a bit. It hurt bad but he couldn't look bad in front of the tough ranger. Vince just huffed and nodded at the black ranger.

"Let's take him out together!"

Vince then got his blade ready and ran for the monster to slash at him. They had to be a team or they would lose.

[dillon]

He watched closely. Vince had taken the bait and attacked. Good but bad. He would have done it himself when he had first started. He could see how new Vince was to this though. This must be his first, or maybe third time morphing and fighting tops. He watched the rush of movement as he put his blaster away and pulled his nitro blaster, switching it into saber mode. A single assault would work too well. So it was time to add in his ability as well. But he got the feeling Vince was trying too hard to show off. The defense was rushed and it put Vince on his back. So he nodded and rushed forward as well.

" Double teaming it is. Let's put it down for the count! " He jumped forward, striking the croc monsters back with the saber. He landed in a forward roll. Turning as well as he came back to his feet. He switched the saber back to blaster and opened fire. Trying to buy time for Vince to get back on top of things. " Need to go high and low at the same time. Which do you want? ' He watched as the croc monster reeled from the blasts. It would only delay the advance for so long. And hand to hand wouldn't be much good. He waited for the answer from Vince as he switched his blaster back to the saber.

[vinceryder]

Vince got to his feet quickly and watched the black ranger turn his blaster into a blade and slash at the monsters back and then blasted him. Vince listened to the rangers question and decided to go the high route. Vince looked at the man watching blast away at the monster. Vince was gonna strike high. Being the high flyer type suited him just fine. He just gave a thumbs up and broke into a run. As he ran everything seemed to slow down for Vince in his mind as adrenaline filled his system. It was time to make his move.

"I'll go high! You go low!"

Vince then sped up. He felt the adrenaline fill his system. He quick jumped a small jump as he ran and slashed at the monsters head. As he did he seemed to have a vision of the day his parents died. As tears filled his eyes inside of his helmet and just stood there not watching the black ranger take down the monster. All he could think about now was the fact that he had just beaten a monster that could have killed some young boys parents. Vince just turned to look at the black ranger as he powered down once the monster was gone.
"Care to get to know each other? Starting with your name?"

[dillon]

He kept his eyes on the monster as he reeled from the blast. He got the answer shortly after the monster was steady again. He simply nodded and put his nitro weapon away and pulled out his Rocket Blaster. He knelt down and took aim, waiting and timing the shot. The ranger ran past him in a burst of speed. He could tell this one was.....new and still not very battle tested. But he was still skilled. The jump, the slash and he pulled the trigger. His weapon blasting the monster.

This double attack finished the monster off. He watched as the monster fell and he stood slowly. Lowering the blaster as he stood. Well it was a valid point. He knew this Vince already. But never did return his own name. So when the ranger powered down so did he. He gave a light smile but remained where he was. " I'm Dillon. Decent fight you did there Vince. Now....can you tell me where i'm at? "

[vinceryder]

Vince just smiled a victory smile when the boy demorphed and then spoke his name. He was known as Dillon. The boy was stronger then a normal boy that was for sure. Vince knew that this guy could not be from this dimention because he did not know that there were other ranger teams all over the place. He gave Dillon a serious look and crossed his arms and made a face like he was thinking. He had to keep it simple that was for sure. He did not want to overwelm the visitor from another plain.

"Well for starters Dillon, I don't think your in your dimension anymore. In this dimension there are like 20 different ranger teams all over. As in location you are in a town known as reefside home of the dino thunder power rangers. I suggest you talk to Tommy Oliver, He is one of the longest serving rangers. I could take you to him."

Vince then held out his morpher.

"This was Tommy's second morpher before he passed it on to me. I took his place as the white mighty morphin power ranger, the mighty morphin rangers were the first team of rangers. They were started by a entergalactic being known as zordon of eltar. I am one of the newest rangers out there but there are more."

Vince then put away his morpher and patted Dillon's shoulder as a thought struck him. If Dillon was transported then maybe his other team mates were to. Vince gripped Dillon's shoulder and smiled.

"I bet your other team mates were brought here to but just got tossed to another place! Tommy could scan your morpher and then locate other morphers of that frequency! OK so we have a plan. So what now D man? Oh and you have sweet moves to.["/color]

Vince then held out his hand to the Black RPM ranger with a grin and a cool look in his eyes.

"So what do ya say? Friends?"

[dillon]

He listened to what was told to him. This was information that he needed. Tommy Oliver sounded like the one to talk too. This Zordon would be worth checking into as well. He chuckled to himself trying to imagine what Dr. K would do if she met someone like that. He nodded lightly now and then as he absorbed the information. He was in a different dimension and time. That was something indeed. He shrugged finally and shook his head. He didn't make friends easily if at all. But it couldn't hurt to help Vince since Vince was helping him.

" Meeting this Tommy sounds like a good idea. And....don't call me d man. Sounds just weird. So let's find Tommy and see what can be done. " He extended his hand and shook Vince's hand in turn. He then thumbed the direction of his car. He had the ride at least as he turned and headed for his car.
