Alright! First chapter of Dino Dilemma is here!

Firstly, thank you to all who read the last story and who are interested in this one.

Secondly... those who would rather not have a certain Thunder Ninja a Dino Ranger... please stop reading here. If I'm making Celea a ranger again... it's basically a package deal with Hunter.

Those who are still reading, and or willing to give this a chance... thank you.

Now... the Disclaimer...

Disclaimer: I do not own Power Rangers Ninja Storm or it's characters. All I own is Celea and a few other OCs... and the Academy she goes to, and it's moves.

Celea

4 months after the events of Ninja Storm...

I sighed as I put my certificate for graduating Ninja Academy in a small pocket in my duffel-bag.

"Are you sure you're ready to leave?" Hunter wrapped an arm around me.

I smiled lightly, "Ready to go to Reefside with you? And go to high school, also with you?" I smiled happily.

Hunter smirked and kissed my cheek, "I'll take that as a yes."

I giggled girlishly, before I shook my head, "I'm still glad you declined Sensei Omino's offer... at least we get to spend even more time together."

Hunter tweaked his head to the side, "Just like I can't believe you tried to skate at the park by the Grand canyon."

I rolled my eyes, "We've been over this."

Hunter captured his lips in mine for a second before he pulled away, "I know."

"But you said you're always wanted to be a Sensei." I restarted to argument that Hunter and I started while being in Nevada 11 and a half weeks ago.

Hunter chuckled, "We've been over this."

I sighed, "I know."

Hunter smiled as we walked out and got into the truck, and put our suitcases in it.

"Come on, let's get to the next Hotel!" He cheered as he climbed into the drivers seat and I climbed into Shotgun.

I laughed at his cheerfulness as we buckled up and Hunter pulled out of the Parking spot, "We're not even on the road and I'm already starting to regret not having my iPod on hand."

Hunter glanced over at me as we made it onto said road, "Admit it, you love it when I'm cheerful."

"I'll admit; I love you." I chuckled as I looked him over.

"Oh come on!" He pouted.

I looked out my window, "Ah... finally. We can just be normal Teens now. No Ranger duties, no Ninja training..."

Hunter smirked, "Careful, you still have the tendency to jinx us when you say something like that."

I rolled my eyes but smiled, "Breath a sigh of relief after being able to scale the Statue of Liberty one TIME...!"

Hunter smiled happily as we continued on the road.

1 week later...

I gulped as Hunter and I stood in front of the Reefside High School's front doors, "Well... you going in or what?"

Hunter looked over at me, "You first."

I rolled my eyes, and took his hand, "Fine, we'll go in at the same time."

"Deal." He nodded and we both walked into the school.

I looked around till I saw the Principle's office and dragged Hunter with me. When we got inside the room, I knocked lightly on the wooded desk to get the Secretary's attention.

"May I help you two?" She asked kindly.

"Um... Celestina Palensa." I introduced myself, "And this is Hunter Bradley." I motioned with my free hand over to my boyfriend.

"We're new students here." Hunter explained simply.

"Ah yes." The secretary got out two sheets of paper and two pens, "Sign these, and I'll go get your schedules." I took a sheet and started to sign my name, as did Hunter.

The secretary got up from her seat and went over to a cabinet where she pulled out two sheets and gave them to us as we handed over the signed sheets of paper.

"Thank you. Principle Randall is running a little late so she won't be able to speak with you."

We nodded in understanding, "It's okay. We'll just head off to our First period."

With that, we walked out of the office and headed for our First Period.

While we did, we looked over our schedules.

"All but third period together." Hunter noted.

I smiled with relief. I didn't have gym like he did this semester.

"Let's go then." Hunter dragged me over to the Science lab where our first period was.

When we got there, he pulled me over to the closest seats to the Teachers desk.

"Hunter... I really don't want us to be called on, more often then not." I grumbled.

"Relax, we'll be fine." Hunter assured me putting his hand over mine.

I cringed as other students started to walk into the class room and started making a mess of it, "I feel sorry for the teacher."

I turned my head to the doorway where a man in a white lab-coat and spectacles was peaking in and seeing the ruckus, he must be the teacher.

"Definitely feel sorry for him." Hunter agreed with a small smile as the older man walk in.

"Guys... settle down!" The man called out, "Take your seats, please!"

I glanced around the room. The other students that were causing a ruckus stopped and sat down.

The man walked in and stood in front of his desk, "I'm Dr. Oliver and welcome to first period science. Before we start, are there any questions?"

Immediately a girl with blond hair raised her hand.

Hunter and I did double takes and blinked as we looked at the girl that had a frighteningly good resemblance to Marah.

We instantly zoned out, but I did hear her say her name was Cassidy Cornell. Everyone also seemed to zone out at the sound of her name.

"...For now, let's talk about you guys," Dr. Oliver got our attention again, "And what you expect of yourselves in this class. Cause that's what's really important." He glanced over at an empty stool, Hunter and I couldn't help but look too. "Is uh... someone missing?"

Everyone shrugged, and Dr. Oliver went on with class.

Free period...

I looked around for Hunter and frowned when I couldn't see him in the courtyard. Third period just ended and Hunter was normally a fast changer. I was about to call his name when I felt someone wrap their arms around me from behind, "Guess who?" The voice of my boyfriend chuckled.

"Hunter 'if he ever does that to me again he'll get thrown into orbit' Bradley?" I turned to face him.

Hunter pouted, "Oh come on! I had you going there for a second there, didn't I?"

I rolled my eyes but smiled, "I admit nothing." We laughed before walking over to a table and sitting down.

I looked around, before I pulled out my iPod and a pair of earbuds.

"Celea! You know that's against school regulations!" I rolled my eyes at Hunter.

"What's the point in life, if you can't take risk every now and then?" I questioned.

Hunter sighed, before taking a side of the earbuds and sticking it in his left ear, while I stuck mine in my right. "If we got caught it's your fault."

I rolled my eyes at him, then turned on my music and let it play. We put our hands over our other ears as the girl in yellow started playing a guitar next to us.

When the first song was finished I frowned as a lady in a dark orange power suite walked over to the girl after she finished playing, and looked her over. I quickly turned my iPod off and took the earbuds out of our ears but she'd already seen us.

"Miss. Palensa, Mr. Bradley, are you aware that electronics, such as that iPod, are against school rules?" She questioned us.

"Uh..." I gulped.

"Well… we were…." Hunter wasn't much help.

"I thought as much. Both of you come with me." The Lady started walking off and we were forced to follow. A guy in a red soccer uniform and the girl with the guitar followed after us.

"Sorry Hunt." I whispered to my boyfriend.

"It's okay Cel." I smiled slightly at Hunter at this. Good, he's not mad.

We didn't go more than five feet before the sprinklers turned on without warning, soaking everyone.

We backtracked a little out of the sprinklers. The Lady looked over at the one boy not wet and carrying a blue umbrella, "Ethan James... I should've known."

Soon, The Lady, Hunter, the girl, the guy in red, the boy named Ethan and I trudged back into the school and into the principle's office. "SIT DOWN!" She pointed to a bench. We quickly did as told.

"Principle Randall, I'd just like to mention the fact that, there is absolutely no hard evidence linking me to that... unfortunate Sprinkler incident." Ethan tried to reason with the, newly revealed, Principle.

"Then why do you have an umbrella?" Hunter looked at the boy in blue, who shrugged quickly.

"Save it for Judge Judy, Mr. James." Principle Randall growled, "The five of you have detention for one week. Starting today. Now if there are no further questions..."

All five of us started spouting out our reasons for no detention all at once.

"I have computer club!" Ethan complained.

"I have a Motocross meeting!" Hunter exclaimed.

"I have band rehearsal!" The girl gripped.

"I have a baking tryout!" I wanted to reason.

"I have soccer practice!" The unnamed guy groaned.

"I didn't think so!" She interrupted us, before walking into her office.

"Okay, somebody seriously needs a hug." The girl groaned.

Hunter looked over at Ethan, "Dude, Computer Club?"

I hit his arm. "Not the time Hunt." I rolled my eyes.

After school...

"Perfect! Bring the little monsters with you. That should be significant torture for them." Principle Randall informed the teacher watching us.

I bit back my retort for calling us 'little monsters' as she and the teacher came to a stop in front of us.

"You've all met I trust." The teacher watching us turned out to be Dr. Oliver, "Well, enjoy your little outing." She smiled wickedly before walking off.

Dr. Oliver took off his glasses and looked at us, "So... you guys like museums?"

1 hour later...

"Whoa check out the T. Rex." Ethan said all too excitedly as Dr. Oliver parked the his Jeep in front of a museum and we hopped out.

I looked over at Hunter and grinned. The way he said it reminded me of our misadventure at the Theater with Blake back in Blue Bay Harbor. Hunter rolled his eyes, thinking the same thing.

"That's weird." Dr. Oliver noted as we got up the front steps to see a 'Sorry we're closed' sign on a chain over the front doors.

"Oh well, no museum for us." The boy in red, Connor, put his hands at his side.

"Great! Let's go home." The girl, Kira, smiled meekly.

"I'll tell you what." Dr. Oliver decided, "Why don't you guys have a look the grounds. If any of you guys find anything Prehistoric, I'll cancel detention for the rest of the week." We all nodded happily in agreement. "I'm gonna see if I can find someone to tell us when they're opening up." All five of us walked off in the same direction.

"So let me get this straight," I groaned inwardly as Connor brought up the subject from before, "They have a club just for computers."

"I think we've already covered that." I retorted. We walked for a little ways into a forest still trying to look for something prehistoric.

"I'm gonna head over here to see if I can find anything." Hunter decided before giving me a peck on the forehead, "I'll be right back if I don't."

I sighed and nodded for him to go which he did. I groaned as I continued to walk with Connor, Ethan and Kira.

"Hey, did you guys ever hear about the story where a guy was hiking up here and fell in a giant sinkhole?" Ethan questioned us after a while.

"Musta missed that one." I gulped, why do I have a bad feeling Ethan just jinxed us?

"Come on! It was on all the urban legend websites!" Ethan insisted.

"Dude, you know this isn't computer club, right?" I hit Connor in the chest for that.

"I think that's... uh... an interesting story Ethan." I assured the boy in blue.

"What do you do in your spare time?" Ethan asked us.

"Me? I go out with girls." Connor gave me a toothy grin.

"I'm already taken." I rolled my eyes.

"By who?"

"Hunter." I smiled insolently.

"Whatever." Kira and Connor walked ahead of us.

I put a comforting hand on Ethan's shoulder, "Don't worry, man. I'm sure they'll warm up to us eventually." We walked after the others.

"All I was trying to do is give the heads up, stuff happens out here. I hope they don't come crying to me if they fall in a giant sinkhole." He shrugged. And I gulped softly in worry.

We stepped over a branch and instantly fell into the ground.

I heard the same happening to Connor and Kira.

Hunter

I walked closer to the Museum, trying to find something when I saw the statue of the T. Rex come to life.

I hid behind a tree so neither it, nor Dr. Oliver, could see me but I could see them.

I watched as Dr. Oliver ran for his Jeep and I was close enough to see him lock the door.

"Great, yeah, 'Lock the door Dr. Oliver!' Real good!" I both grumbled.

He frantically started the Jeep then started driving away from the Dinosaur. The thing following.

I blinked, "Okay... I did NOT just see that!" I went back to looking for something Prehistoric when I heard Celea's shouting.

"Anyone up there?! Dr. Oliver?! Hunter?! Hello!" I followed the sound of her voice and almost fell into a sinkhole.

I looked down and saw everyone in it.

"Heavens be praised! Hunter! Can you get us out of here?!" Celea called up.

I shook my head even if I used my Ninja abilities it would be risky, "No. Sorry Cel."

"Can you go get help then?" Connor called.

"Um... we're kinda on our own for right now." I admitted.

"Great! Now what are we gonna do?!" Kira gripped.

"There's only one thing I can think of." I mumble before I jumped into the hole with them.

Once the dust settled I saw two annoyed boys, one annoyed girl and one very angry girlfriend.

"What'd you do that for?!" They shouted.

"I didn't wanna be lonely!" I exclaimed. I slowly got up and looked above us, "Did you guys try climbing out?"

Connor slowly raised his hand, "That'd been my idea. Epic fail."

I sighed heavily, "Come on, let's take a look around." I motioned to a small opening.

"Good thinking." The others agreed. Connor, Kira, and Ethan went first, I held back Celea for a second.

"Do you think this'll lead to anything bad?" I learned from personal experience that I should ask before I did anything risky.

Celea nodded, "Yes, but we've got no other choice but to follow them." She started following Ethan and after a moment I followed after her.

After a few short minutes we finally caught up with the others.

"Freak you out. Freak you out. Freak you out. Freak you out." Kira murmured but, seeing as how we were in a cave, we all heard her.

"Babe could you keep it down." Connor gripped, "I'm trying to stay focused here."

"Did you just call me 'Babe'?!" Kira stopped walking as Connor continued on. Kira stopped us, "Did he just call me 'Babe'?!"

"I don't know." I shrugged.

"I wasn't really listening." Celea admitted.

"I was still grooving to your tune." Ethan grumbled.

Kira walked up to Connor who had stopped walking a little ways away. "What?" Connor questioned why Kira was now glaring at him, "Look just, chill out."

"Listen; My name is Kira." She stated sharply, "Maybe you should write it on your hand so you won't forget it or something." She walked passed him and continued on. The rest of us didn't say a word as we followed.

"Hey guys! Check this out!" Kira called out.

"What's... Woah." I was about to ask when I saw the giant dinosaur skeleton.

"This screams 'Jurassic Park' to me." Celea noted.

Connor scuffed, "This'll get us outta detention forever." He slowly reached out and took the jaw of the Dino.

"Do you think you should-" Celea's question was cut off when the jaw only got pulled partially down and a doorway opened up beside it.

"Whoa!" Ethan and I breathed out before we all walked into the room that was just revealed.

"I could do a crazy video in here." Kira looked around.

"Um... Hunt... am I seeing things or is there too bold a pattern with the design?" Celea whispered to me as we looked at the markings all around the room.

"Definitely the second one." I decided as we continued to follow the other three. Connor walked over to a smoking rock with five stones on it. A red, a Blue, a Yellow, a dark Green and a Magenta.

Connor was about to reach for the Red one when Ethan hissed and walked over to the Soccer player, "Yo! Don't touch that."

Connor slowly moved his hand away and looked over at him, "Why not?"

Celea and I walked over, "You're really taking this 'Dumb jock' thing to a whole new level."

Kira walked over to us after that.

"Look, I've sat through enough lame science classes to know that thing looks fully prehistoric." Connor rolled his eyes he motioned to the rock, "And if I don't miss practice..."

"I hate to agree with him," Kira stepped in, "Really, I do. But I already missed one rehearsal."

I sighed, "And I've already missed one Motocross meeting..."

Celea was the last one of us to cave, "And I lost out on today's tryouts." With that said, we each reached for a stone.

Celea grabbed the Green one, Connor grabbed the Red, Kira grabbed the Yellow, Ethan grabbed the blue and I grabbed the Magenta. When we picked them up, they started glowing.

"Woah..." We all breathed out.

"What are they?" Kira looked at her stone.

"I could go online later, see if I can find anything out." Ethan advised.

"You in front of a computer? Wait let me put on my surprised face." Celea kicked Conner's shin for that as the stones stopped glowing.

"You know, ten years from now, when your hairline's reseeding and you're playing pick up soccer in the park, cause your dreams of turning pro never quite worked out," Celea growled, "I'm sure Ethan'll have his own multi-million software business." I had to hold back my jealousy as Ethan smiled thankfully at Celea.

Kira started to walk away. "Where you going?" I questioned her.

Kira stopped and turned to us, "I don't wanna think about what kinda freak, lives in a place like this. And I sure don't wanna be here when it gets home." She turned back around and continued to walk away.

"Right behind ya." We pocketed the stones and started after her.

"Are you sure we can't just Ninja Streak out of here?" I whispered softly to Celea since we were in the back of the group.

"And freak them out even more?" Celea retorted, "Uh... no way." I groaned, she wasn't making it any easier on us.

Finally after a little while longer of walking I started seeing light.

I ran ahead and the others started following, "Come on! This way!" It took every last bit of me to run and not Ninja Streak before we all made it out and I got up on a pathway, "Uh... Anyone got a compass?" I glanced over at Celea, who shook her head 'No'.

"Like I was gonna bring one." Connor rolled his eyes.

We started to walk around on the rock and dirt path. Suddenly wind blew at us and we stopped walking. My head snapped in Celea's direction. As a response she looked around but shook her head after a few seconds.

"What was that?" Ethan gulped, Celea's and my exchange going unnoticed.

"The wind." Kira answered simply.

"That ain't the wind." Celea, Ethan and I noted all three of us gulping.

"As much as we'd like it to be... it ain't." I added. Suddenly, a flash of green light came down from the sky and weird looking reptiles came down, landing all around us.

"So much for a normal life." I grumbled in my thoughts.

"Don't... move." Connor whispered.

"Great idea 'Make it easy for them'." Celea growled through gritted teeth.

"New plan... RUN!" Everyone followed Ethan as he ran off in the only direction that those reptiles weren't covering. As we ran, I heard the reptile freaks following us.

A gap in the ground came into view. Connor, Ethan, and I easily jumped over it, leaving Celea and Kira. I glanced behind me when I heard screams of pain. The three of us stopped and ran back to them. The Reptile things taking this chance and tried to run at them.

"Come on!" Connor, Ethan and I held out our hands for them to take which they quickly did.

We pulled them out just as two of the Reptiles jumped in. We continued running, barely stopping. I saw Kira trip and I was about to go back for her as the Reptiles got closer but she let out an ear piercing screech that made the remaining four of us cover our ears.

Amazingly it sent the reptile freaks back. When the screech subsided we ran back and helped her up. "What... was that?!" Ethan whispered in amazement.

"I have no idea." Just as Kira was saying that the Yellow stone started to glow again. As the glowing disappeared the Reptiles recovered and we split up.

I groaned when I came to a thick covering of trees. I turned around and saw that some of the Reptiles had followed me.

"I hope you like the smell of burnt Whatever-you-ares." I sent a blast of thunder at them, but it only pushed them back a little. When they started advancing again, I started to panic. "Stay... back!" I stomped my foot and suddenly the ground beneath me shook as my foot went a little deeper than expected, sending a shock wave at them. I took the Magenta stone out of my pocket as it started to glow again and I heard a faint prehistoric growl before the glowing stopped. I shook my head and started to run off to find the others.

"Okay! Now I'm mad!" I stopped when I saw Celea up high in a small tree the reptiles surrounding her. She jumped down and landed (Remarkably [Even for a Ninja]) safe on the ground before she started attacking the freaks. Just as one got close enough to her, she shoved it back with the palm of her hand which glowed and slightly morphed into weird prehistoric talons sending it back into it's fallen kind. "What the...?!" Celea hissed as the stone in her white coat pocket glowed green and she took it out. Just as the glowing died out, however, the Reptiles advanced and so did I.

"Stay away from my girlfriend!" I kicked at one, then blasted another with thunder. When I got over to Celea we put our backs together, facing the freaks, "You thinking what I'm thinking?" I high kicked at them.

"We just got roped into the Ranger business again?" Celea guessed.

"Yep." I grinned slightly as I sent another blast of thunder at the Reptiles. We continued to fight till they were all on the ground.

"Let's go find the others." Celea decided breathlessly.

"Good idea." I agreed and we ran back to where we first split up to find them. "Over here!" I shouted when I saw them.

When they got over to us they were holding there stones and breathless.

"How much do I love detention!" Ethan breathed out all to excitedly. I ignored the pointed look Celea gave me. That definitely reminded us of the Popcorn incident.

"Hey!" We heard Dr. Oliver and we quickly pocketed the stones again as he ran up to us, "Are you guys alright?"

"Uh.. yeah." Celea nodded when we couldn't come up with an excuse, "Couldn't be better."

Dr. Oliver looked at all five of us, "Nothing out of the ordinary happened?" Celea and I had to grip each other's hand tightly so we wouldn't say anything.

'Well... nothing out of the ordinary for Rangers anyway.' I heard Celea in my mind.

"You got that right." I glanced over at her and smiled lightly.

"Nah..." Ethan covered, "Just your... routine hike in the woods. With lotsa furry little creatures."

Not very convincing but at least Dr. Oliver seemed to buy it.

"And a few scaly ones." I murmured.

Celea hit my back as Dr. Oliver was just about to question what I meant. "So... you get into the Dino exhibit?" She changed the subject quickly.

"Uh... still working the kinks out." I bit back my scuff since I saw what actually happened, "We better get you guys back. Come on." With that, he started leading us out of the woods.

"Don't you guys think we should tell him?" Kira hissed.

"I don't know about you guys," Ethan reasoned, "But I've got over a thousand SyFi DVDs. You wanna know how many times the guy with the superpowers ends up in some freaky government lab on a table with wires in his head?"

"Even I know that." Connor agreed.

We stopped walking and looked at each other.

Which didn't go unnoticed by our Teacher.

"You guys coming?" Dr. Oliver called over to them.

We gave each other one last look before quickly following him again.

Third Person

Later that same day...

The group of five were walking across the High school grounds where some after-school activities were still taking place.

"Okay, so we all agree that no one talks about this to anyone no matter what." Connor stated just to make sure.

Kira and Celea stopped and turned to face them, "We'll do better than that." The two girls gave him their stones, "We're outta it."

"Hey! how come he gets it?" Ethan and Hunter questioned them.

"Well here!" The girls mumbled before Celea gave Hunter her stone and Kira gave Ethan hers.

"Come on girls... you can't just drop something like this." Celea resisted the urge to roll her eyes at Hunter's hidden meaning.

"You know what? I give up!" Celea turned and walked away from the others.

"Same here." Kira followed after her.

Just as they were walking down the path, wind blew at them.

"Oh you gotta be kidding me!" Celea grumbled as they continued walking, before the Reptiles from earlier jumped out and grabbed them.

"Get away freaks!" Kira snarled as they tried to pull out of the things' grip.

"Celea! Kira!" The other three boys tried to run up and help their friends. But they were too late. The reptiles and the captured girls disappeared into another green light. Leaving their backpacks behind.

"I think we need to tell someone... FAST!" Hunter decided, picking up his girlfriend's white book-bag.

Connor nodded, "Let's go."

5 minutes later...

The former Crimson Ranger held his stomach as Connor skidded onto the road in his red mustang. 'Now I know how Celea felt when we Ninja Streaked so much.'

"So where are we going?" Connor asked.

"Uh... Dr. Oliver's?" Hunter suggested.

"What's HE gonna do?!" Connor snapped.

"He's a dinosaur guy!" Hunter reasoned, "These things are dinosaurs!... Sort of."

"Alright..." Connor accepted, "So... where does he live?"

Ethan looked at his hand held, "Um… 1992 Valencia road."

"Valencia Road... isn't that way out in the middle of the woods?" Hunter raised a good question as the car sped off to their destination.

45 minutes later...

They reached the woods and headed straight for the only house in sight. When they finally got there, Connor quickly parked the car and everyone got out.

The three boys hurried to the front door Ethan knocked, while Connor looked through the window and Hunter looked for another way in.

"Knock again..." Connor told Ethan after he knocked. When that still didn't work the three boys regrouped.

"No way." Ethan sighed in defeat. Hunter frowned and turned the knob the door swinging in when he did.

"Why would he leave it unlocked?" Connor questioned the reasoning of their Teacher.

"He doesn't exactly have any neighbors." Ethan noted.

"Ever hear of the three bears?" Hunter looked over at the boy in blue before walking in.

"Dr. Oliver?" He called into a room before they walked into it, "Hello?"

"Guys, check it out." Connor walked over to a miniature version of a Dinosaur skeleton, he was about to grab the jaw when Hunter hit his arm.

"Hey... remember what happened the last time you did that?" Ethan and Hunter questioned Connor's memory.

"Dude the guy's a teacher not-" Connor pulled the jaw down and was stopped mid-sentence when a trap door opened up. "Batman..." He finished in a mumble.

The three boys looked at each other before climbing down the steps in the trap door.

"This is the same place." Ethan acknowledged as they looked around and continued to walk through the room.

"Are you guys freaking out right now?" Connor questioned his two companions.

"Yeah..." Ethan nodded.

"I'd have to say; I am..." Hunter agreed.

Suddenly footsteps could be heard behind them causing the Former Crimson Ranger and the other two to turn their heads to see the owner of the house walking up to them. "If you're looking for extra credit, you're in the wrong place." He informed them.

The three students exchanged nervous glances with each other.

"Dr. Oliver... before you go off; can we explain why we're here?" Hunter gulped as the boys and the Teacher slowly circled each other.

"Dude he's just gonna laugh when we tell him." Connor hissed when they stopped and glanced over at each other.

"It's the truth!" Ethan acknowledged, "He'll believe us!"

"Alright..." Connor agreed, before looking back at their teacher, "Kira and Celea are gone."

"They got taken by these weird looking Dinosaur things." Hunter added his chest aching as he recalled what happened.

The Doctor looked down. "He doesn't look convinced." Ethan whispered to the Blond.

Their teacher turned away from them, "They're called Tyrannodrones."

"And you know that because…?" Connor wanted an answer.

"I helped create them." Dr. Oliver answered simply.

"Oh… class project?" Hunter asked, hoping he was right.

"It's a long story." And that hope was crushed. Dr. Oliver turned to face them, "For now, we gotta figure out what they want with Kira and Celea."

"It... might have something to do with," Connor pulled out the Red stone in his pocket as did the other two, "These..." Dr. Oliver's mouth hung open slightly at the sight of them.

Mesogog's island

Kira and Celea slowly came too from where they were on two dentist like chairs. When they looked around the room they were in, Celea almost felt her heart stop. 'So much for being a normal teenager.'

"Celea... am I seeing things... or are we in a lab?" Kira gulped as they stood up.

"Uh... I guess the second one would fit the bill." Celea answered.

"Give... me... the Gems..." A repetitious voice hissed out of nowhere.

Kira and Celea slammed their backs together in fright. "Who's there? Come out so we can see you." They chorused.

"Give me the Gems." The repetitious voice repeated. Celea turned in Kira's direction, and had to resist the urge to get into a defensive stance.

"This is about jewelry?" Kira asked, "Look pal... Clearly you've got the wrong girls.

"Yeah..." Celea agreed, "...I may wear a friendship bracelet once in a while and a friend my have given me a necklace that I wear all the time... but I-" Her reasoning was cut off by the Repetitious voice again.

"I have been waiting," They gasped when they turned and saw the owner of the voice, a Dino-Man, "Far too long, to allow insignificant teenagers to get in my way." With each word he took a step closer.

'I never thought I'd miss fighting Lothor.' Celea realized while staring at the Monster.

"Now..." The Dino-Monster continued, "Where are the Dino-Gems?"

"Y... You mean the rock things we found in the cave?" Celea gulped nervously.

"Yes..." It hissed appearing behind them, the two girls gasped and turned to face it again.

"I... I gave mine to my boyfriend... Hunter Bradley." Celea revealed.

"And I gave mine to Connor and Ethan." Kira added, "You'll have to ask them... Can we go? My mom's gonna freak if I'm late for dinner. It's taco night."

"A... and my boyfriend's gonna lose it if I'm not at the Hotel by 7 o'clock. It's movie night." Celea nervously explained. Maybe this guy would let them go? He seems enough like a gentleman.

Instead, the Dino-Monster disappeared. "Okay... that's it. No more cafeteria food." Kira decided.

"And no more late night SyFi movies." Celea made a mental note to herself. They turned around again and came face to face with a woman in all black.

"You'll be lucky to see food, or movies, again." She walked up to them.

Oliver's House

"We're really sorry." Hunter apologized to the Teacher who now held their stones.

"How were we supposed to know those things had superpowers?" Connor questioned.

"And those Dino guys were gonna come looking for them?" Ethan added.

"Well... I guess it's not exactly something you see everyday." Dr. Oliver answered after a moments pause.

"Sorta like a science teacher, with the ruins of an ancient civilization under his house?" Hunter retorted before walking further into the room.

"Not like this isn't all really cool..." Ethan stopped and took it all in walking over to Hunter.

"But seriously dude you gotta come clean." Connor finished.

"Okay, first of all; Don't call me dude." Dr. Oliver instructed, "Second; As hard as this may seem, you three need to forget all about this. I'll find Kira and Celea." He turned and started to walk towards an exit.

Hunter, who had been messing with a mechanism close by, scuffed, "Can't let you do that."

He stomped his foot into the ground, sending the teacher back a little ways.

Connor took this chance and superspeeded in front of the teacher.

Hunter followed suit and stood beside Connor.

Dr. Oliver smirked, "The Gems' power's already starting to bond with you guys."

"You can tell us all about it now," Hunter bargained, "Or at the next Parent/Teacher conference."

Mesogog's island

"You got a name? You kinda look familiar." Celea and Kira slowly stepped back as the woman in black advanced on them.

"My master calls me Elsa." The lady answered continuing to advance.

"Your master?" Celea's eyes widened.

"Okay... look... we're gonna let ourselves out." Kira took Celea's arm.

But… as Kira was turning to leave Elsa grabbed their arms and pulled them back.

Anger coursed through Celea, she was fine with defending herself, she was TRAINED to defend herself, but she couldn't really defend herself right now without revealing her Ninja skills to Kira!

So she did the one thing she could think of, fight without them. Celea pulled out of Elsa's grip as Kira ducked and pulled away before they started to throw punches and kicks at the lady in black.

Kira pulled one of her arms down before Elsa pulled back and Celea kicked her up forcing Elsa to flip in the air and land holding her right wrist in pain.

Celea blinked, okay... that was definitely bad!

"Woah... we so did not mean to do that!" She lied easily and looked over at Kira who nodded quickly in agreement. They turned and were about to run out when a monster in spiked armor walking in with the reptile things behind it.

'Great! Just what I needed! A Zurgane wannabe!' Celea glared at the monster that looked like her old enemy.

"Meet Zeltrax!" Elsa hissed.

"Are you two dating? Or just friends?" Kira asked nervously. The Zurgane wannabe raised an ax he held in his hand when Kira screeched and sent him and the reptiles flying to the ground. Kira looked over at me, "Let's get out of here!"

"Don't need to tell me twice!" The two girls ran out of the room.

"AFTER THEM!" Elsa shouted with anger.

Kira and Celea continued running through the halls till a green portal stopped them in their tracks. "What in the..." Kira and Celea glanced back, then slowly reached their hands out before the portal sucked them in completely.
