"Hold up, Bitch. Now you're disrespecting family." JT tightened her ponytail, signaling that she was ready to fight. "Dad, please let me smack the shit out of her! You can call it entertainment until whoever else gets here that's supposed to be here." She pleaded with her father but the UHA Commander was having none of it.
"Don't worry about it, Baby Girl. She's just a little slow on the uptake. It'll all work itself out." Joey said, not wanting his daughter to beat up their guest. Thankfully, she sliding doors opened up again with Memphis walking through and Ghost not far behind. Memphis looked at Rose who seemed none too pleased to be here.
"Apparently I missed the early batch of fireworks."

Dieck rolled his eyes, ignoring Rose's gesture as he listened to Joey's introductions to everyone including his dad. Just when he thought of snarking back to her, he saw Memphis appearing with the other guy. "Don't worry Uncle Memphis, the fireworks are ongoing." Dieck told him with a shrug, referring to Rose.
Daniel looked between Ghost and Memphis, sporting a satisfied smile. "I see you brought Ghost here. Excellent."

Ghost entered the room beside Memphis and his eyes widened at everyone present. He was in the presence of some of the greatest and most powerful Rangers in the history of Rangers. Having been trained by Memphis as well as personally selected by Ronin had been highlights of Ghost's life. But now he was in the presence of Greatness and to top it all off was feet away from Joey Brooks.
Ghost's poker face was barely holding on but he still remained respectful and professional. "Evening everyone... Name's Ghost... Mr. Brooks... an honor sir." His potential fan boy moment took a break the minute he heard Rose. Then he looked at the other two unfamiliar faces. They weren't UHA. Ghost assumed all three were just a bunch of civilians and now the questions began to rise as he glanced at Memphis giving an eyebrow raised.

Rose rolled her eyes at JT. "Oh, please. I ain't afraid of you, Princess. I've seen feral rats more threatening then a teeny bopper who's what...hundred pounds soaking wet? You don't scare me," she said. Deciding to ignore the slow comment from Joey, she looked over as Memphis and Ghost walked in, rolling her eyes at Ghost's rambling. "Wow, dude...you got something brown on your nose. Talk about being a kiss ass. Old man isn't gonna bone you, dude."

"Relax." Ronin chuckled. "I'm not here to rob you or even kidnap you... technically. I was sent to retrieve you though. There's some uncool shit going on in the streets and my friends believe that you can give us a hand."
Nat couldn't help but continue to give the armored stranger a glazed over look. "I'm a writer.." She said looking over to her computer. "How in the world am I supposed to help?" She asked confused.

"Mr. Brooks is my dad, call me Joey." The UHA commander smiled softly. "The missus is a stickler for people here addressing me as Commander Brooks but that seems a bit stiff."
The friendly exchange was interrupted by Rose and her less than friendly responses, one of which was more than enough to trigger the daughter of the commander.
"Maybe I'll scare you if I break that jaw of yours!" JT advanced towards Rose, only for Memphis to quickly step in between.
"Easy there, Squirt. We need her jaw in one piece."
After a loud growl, JT backed away as this woman rubbed her the wrong way in record time.
****
"Let me show you." Ronin took Nat by the hand and instead of waiting for her to agree, he took her through the same mirror he arrived from. Moments later, the two arrived inside of the Command Center where everyone else was.
"You okay? I know it can get a bit bumpy the first time." Ronin looked at Nat, knowing that the trip was a sudden one.

Rose rolled her eyes at JT's anger, and she grinned. "Oh, got a baby badass over here," she laughed. "Keep working on the rage face, kiddo. You might scare a pigeon one day!" She folded her arms and stood off to the side, leaning against the wall. She looked over as Ronin and another girl appeared, and she shook her head. "Great....the mirror people are multiplying. Coming soon to a theatre new you: Invasion from the Bathroom Sink!"

Dieck smirked at Ghost's reaction, reminding him of his dad and Mr. Nolan's fanboy reactions of meeting famous Rangers. When he saw his Uncle Ronin with another female civilian, he now realized the team was now assembled. He's totally right earlier, the Power Rangers were needed more than ever.
"Hey Uncle Ronin, sorry about the mess here. Firecracker is taking it all in with all this." Dieck casually told him.

"Oh. My. God." Nat said as she watched him vanish through the mirror, but then as she watched her hand and the rest of her also travel through the same mirror. Once on the other side, her stomach had finally caught up and realized she was somewhere else. When the man asked if she was okay, she looked at him. "I don't know how to answer that honestly." She said shaking her head straight a little then looked to the other people standing in the room with them. "Hi Yall! I'm Nat." She said giving a slight awkward wave to them all.

Ghost did his best to not even give Rose any more attention than she already was getting. "Pleasant. Mr. Br- er... Joey... should these civilians really be present for this? I mean If I'm not even allowed certain information I can't imagine any of them are..." it was then Ronin came in with another girl.
Ghost gave a simple nod to the man who was responsible for him being there. He hadn't seen him in what felt like years and Ghost wasn't exactly sure what to even say to the man. His thoughts kept getting interrupted by the 4 people he didn't recognize. So far the only pleasant voice was the new Comer he then raised an eyebrow to Dieck. "Uncle Ronin?" He then gave the look to Ronin. He didn't even know the man had any family.
Ghost took a look at Nat and gave a simple wave yet he wasn't sure her being her was a plus either. He finally looked at JT and stared at her noticing similar features on her face especially what he deemed her battle face which looked awful familiar. "Let me guess... Your last name is Brooks too..."
Ghost turned his attention the the screen which showed thr robots on the move.
"Sir with all due respect what am I and more importantly all of these civilians doing here? The fact you're here as well as all these Rangers can't just be for a potluck."

Rose, under great personal restraint, bit her tongue to keep from making fun of Nat or even spouting off to Ghost again. She swallowed her pride, and looked at Joey. "Seriously. The hell am I here for? Bug-Eyed Mirror Man said "end of the world" shit was happening. Why me? I ain't a superhero "save Lois Lane" kinda girl. I'm more then "Shit's on fire? Where's the Popcorn?" kinda girl, so...gotta reluctantly agree with Mr. Brown Nose. The fuck?"

"Uncle Boss, is it about the dark being?" Dieck spoke up to Joey, finally explaining what he needed to do. "Because I saw you, JT, and the other UHA leaders injured by him at the strategy room. I know it's wrong for me to look, but I need to know what's happening. Why is he here?"

"Sorry. I was in a bit of a rush." Ronin spoke sheepishly, rubbing the back of his head.
"Hi there, Nat." Joey introduced everyone a second time now that all parties were present.
"Guilty as charged, Ghost. Uncle Memphis told me about you. Good to put a name to a face." JT smiled as she exchanged pleasantries with one of her uncle's pupils.
After talk heavily shifted to the robots on screen, Joey finally shifted gears. "Okay, here's what we're dealing with. During our meeting, we were attacked by a Triforian named Trios who now goes by Heloise. He stole one of the devices we developed to traverse freely across the multiverse. Now we have Grinders on our earth. Grinders are foot soldiers who came from another Earth --- Memphis' earth specifically. Now the Grinders are here wrecking shit." Joey said, giving the group the basics on the enemy.
"And before one of you asks me why me or one of the other old guys haven't gone out there, we agreed that it was now time to build the new generation. So for that reason, the five of you have been brought in to become Power Rangers, specifically Lightning Sting Power Rangers." Joey briefly triggered a split screen, featuring old data from the original LS team that he led around 30 years ago.

"Really?!" Dieck's eyes widen at the sight of the data that covered the original Lightning Sting decades ago. Sure he heard stories about them every once in a while, but now he got to be part of something huge. "I'm gonna be a Power Ranger like my Papa and Uncles! Klassno!" He pumped his fist in excitement.
"It's bound to happened, my boy." Daniel ruffled Dieck's hair, proud of his son achieving that moment. Dieck then proceed to hug him.

Rose blinked, looking at Joey like he grew an extra head. "What?" She blinked, rubbing her ear and shaking her head out. "I'm sorry...I think I heard you wrong, Grey Temples. You want me, a sgirl with no redeeming qualities except how good I look in a bikini...to....put on spandex and save the world? With Mr. Buttkiss, Pretty Princess, Country Bumpkin, and Eyes Wide McGoober over here? Are you out of your goddamn mind? Nuh-uh. I ain't about to become, how'd I put it...oh, right, a "crazy sumbitch in a spandex unitard with whack ass abilities". No fuckin' way."
