Disclaimer: I DO NOT own Power Rangers…this is for entertainment only…all other characters are mine…

I couldn't bare with the idea of a cliffhanger for the ending of Time After Time. It said to me 'write a sequel, Steph...write a sequel...'…so here's a short sequel to it…How the Collins legacy was carried of after Jen, Wes, and baby Alan returned to the future.

Enjoy!

Power Rangers Time Force:
Regeneration

Year 3024

Twenty one year old Alan Eric Collins walked through the halls of Time Force with a smile on his face. Alan had black hair with hints of blonde and blue eyes. He had just been promoted to Lieutenant and was given a morpher from the next set of chronomorphers. Like his father, he was Red Ranger. Alan was highly respected in Time Force, much like his parents.

Wesley Andrew Collins, the first Red Ranger in Time Force. He was 20 years old when he was given his powers. Wes was originally from the year 2001.He made his debut as a Time Force officer when he was given the morpher by the team leader. He faced Ransik and helped bring in his capture. Through this he met Alan's mother, Jennifer Marie Scotts. He came to the future two years after Ransik and was given his morpher back, after helping Jen defeat Galden.

Then there was his mother. Jennifer Marie Scotts was Time Force's Pink Ranger, at the age of 19. She struggled through the academy, but finally got through it. She dawned her morpher and gave her team their powers as well. Jen also let Wes keep his morpher after some though times. But they fell in love, and were separated for two years, until Wes came to the future. Jen helped Wes reclaim his morpher and defeat Galden.

Both of his parents were promoted to Captain, after Rob Logan retired.

But three months ago they were reported missing, after a mission to capture some renegade mutants in Death Valley. This brought Alan into control, and he was given his morpher. He vowed to bring in those mutants, which he did.

Alan walked into his office, the one his parents shared. He looked around to see pictures of their friends, the other rangers. Katie Walker, Lucas Kendall and Trip Regis. Pictures of his parents wedding. There were a lot of pictures of him growing up and making his way through the Academy. There were pictures missing, however. His promotion and being given his morpher.

'I miss you guys so much.' Alan sighed. 'What happened to you guys?'

"Lieutenant! Sir!" an officer walked in and snapped to attention.

Alan sighed. "At ease. What can I do for you, Officer Dellen?"

"The rest of the morphers have been completed. Ensign Avery has requested a list of candidates for each one, sir." The officer said.

"Tell Ensign Avery that I will have the list for him as soon as possible." Alan said.

"Yes, sir!" Officer Dellen saluted and exited.

"It's too early to think about candidates." Alan sighed. Someone walked into is office.

"Hey there, Alan." He looked up to see a beautiful redhead walk in his office. She had dark green eyes and was about 5 feet 6 inches. She made him smile.

"Hey there, Cindy." He got up and kissed her hello. They had been dating ever since High School. She recently joined Time Force as well.

"Alan, are you okay? You don't look so good." Cindy said.

Alan sighed again and sat down. "I just can't get over it. It's been three months…" he trailed off.

Cindy sat down on his lap. "You're going to have to admit it. They're gone, Alan. No one can survive a desert for three months. It's impossible."

"I know. But something keeps telling me that they're alive, and that they're here. But not here." He went over to the window.

"Hey Alan!" a male voice said. Cindy and Alan turned around to see two men and a woman walk in.

"Hi Cindy!" the young woman said. The two shared a hug.

"Shannon! Long time no see!" Cindy said. Shannon had dark skin, long brown hair and beautiful hazel eyes. She was 5 feet 4 inches.

"Mike, Austin, how are you guys?" The men shook hands.

"Fine. We just wanted to check up on you. After all, well you know…" Austin trailed off. Austin had short black hair, green eyes, and was 5 feet 7 inches tall.

"Yea. We figured you needed some friends around." Mike added. He was short to say the least. 5 feet 2 inches. Light drown hiar with highlights of red, and dark brown eyes.

"Thanks guys." Alan said. He looked around at his friends.

Just then the alarms went off. "Time to get rolling! Let's move out!" The five officers scrambled down the hall to where their cars were waiting.

Times Square

Denthrax laughed evily as his gang of mutants terrorized Times Square. "This is great! I love destruction the evening!"

"Yes, master! This plan is perfect!" His sidekick Tyranis said.

"Soon I will---"

BOOM!

"What was that!" Denthrax turned around to see Time Force vehicles pulling up. Alan jumped out of the car.

"Time Force! You are under arrest! Surrender now or we will be forced to shoot!" Alan declared.

"Lieutenant, you make me laugh!" Denthrax fired his weapon. Alan tumbled into open ground.

"I've had enough!" He raised his left wrist, where his chronomorpher was, only this one was improved. The weapons were more powerful then the original five. "TIME FOR TIME FORCE!" A flash of Red and he stood there in his uniform. It was solid red with white trim around the shoulders and the belt was white. It bore Time Force's insigna. In the middle was the starburst found on the back in the uniforms.

"Your time us up!" Alan said. He charged into battle with the mutant.

After a series of punches and kicks, he called for his weapon. "Chrono saber! Power up!" His weapon materialized in his hand and he fought.

Denthrax had enough. "We'll meet again, Red Ranger!" He disappeared in flash of white.

"NO!" Alan cried. "Damn!" He called out.

"Alan, relax! We'll get him." He turned around. Cindy put a hand on his shoulder.

"I know. Power down." A flash of red and he was back in uniform. "Pack up and move out!" Alan commanded.

"Yes, sir!" Alan sighed as he went back to his car and drove back to base.

A figure in a black cloak from a nearby rooftop watched him drive away. 'Very soon Alan. I promise. Very soon.' The figure thought. Another cloaked person came up behind the first.

"Come on, we need to get moving. It's almost time." The second figure said.

"You're right. Let's go." The two figures moved across the rooftop.

The next afternoon

Alan was sitting at his desk when an officer came running into his office. "Lieutenant Collins! Someone has taken a time ship and is going back in time!"

Alan jumped out of this chair. "What!" He ran over to the computer and hit a button. Denthrax was seen loading a bunch of mutants into a time ship, and preparing for launch. "Get a time ship ready for me! I'm going back to get them!" Alan said.

"Yes, sir!" The officer dashed out.

Launch pad 3

Denthrax laughed as officers charged at him, as he powered up his weapon. Cindy came to face him.

"You're under arrest, Denthrax! Give up!" Cindy said.

Alan came rushing down the stairs. "Cindy! Get out of the way!" She turned around. Denthrax smiled evily and shot his weapon at her.

"NO!" Alan watched as the blast hit her dead on, then a small explosion occurred. Cindy was on the floor, not moving. Denthrax backed up into the time ship and took off.

He ran over to her. "God, no, please. Cindy wake up!" She stirred. "Cindy?"

"Alan, go back and get him. Stop him before he harms anyone." She coughed up blood.

"No, I can't. Not without you, Cindy. Please." Alan pleased.

"Go." Cindy said and she collapsed.

"Launch in three…two…one…" the Transwarp Megazord hit the time ship, sending it back in time.

Alan looked at Cindy's body. "I promise I'll get him." He stood up. "Mike! Austin! Shannon! Let's go!" The trio nodded as they followed him back in time, the morphers safely on board.

The time ship flew up to the launch pad. "Follow time ship 1." Alan commanded. The computer came to life.

"TIME SHIP 1 COORDINATES LOCKED."

"Go!" Alan said. The four officers sat back and prepared for the trip through time.

Sometime later

Alan awoke sometime later to find himself lying in his seat. He sat up and felt his back crack. "Guys?" He said.

"Wow. That was a trip." Mike said.

"My head." Shannon groaned.

"I wonder where we are." Austin said.

"I can tell you exactly where we are." The computer said. An eagle shaped computer, Chip, flew into the table. We're just south of a city called Silver Hills, in the year 2025."

Alan gasped. "D-did you say Silver Hills?"

"Yes I did, Alan." Chip said.

"We're in the…past?" Austin said. The group walked outside onto a small beach.

"Wow. We went back 1000 years." Shannon said. She looked at Alan.

"Alan, you okay?" Mike asked. He too noticed Alan's expression.

"My parents traveled back in time to capture Ransik. They—they came to this city, Silver Hills." Something dawned on him. "Eric." He whispered. "We need to find Eric Myers. He was one of my dad's best friends. He was also the Quantum Ranger." He paused and ran back into the ship.

"I think he's finally lost it." Austin said. Alan came running out.

"Put these on." He opened the case to reveal four small gold colored oval shaped objects. Shannon gasped.

"No…are these the…" She trailed off.

"Yes, Shannon. These are the new chronomorphers. Much like my parents, only more powerful." Alan handed each one a morpher.

Shannon put hers on her wrist. A yellow flash surrounded her body. "DNA LOCKED." Shannon gasped. "Cool!"

Austin put his on. A green flash surrounded him. "DNA LOCKED." He smiled. "Yes!"

Mike strapped his around his wrist. A blue flash shown around him. "DNA LOCKED." He nodded. Then looked at the last one in Alan's hand. "Which one is that?"

Alan sighed. "This is the pink ranger's morpher. I wanted Cindy to have it…" he trailed off and put the morpher in his back pocket. "Come on, we need to find Eric."

Austin jumped at this opportunity. "Wait! We can take the vector cycles!" He opened up yet another container and took out the four toy-sized cycles. They soon grew to life size.

"Awesome!" Mike said.

"Sweet rides, Austin!" Shannon said.

Alan powered his up. "Let's go." The four rode off in search of the Quantum Ranger.

No one bothered to notice two figures stationed up on the rocks.
