The proposed hour came and went. Joey and Amy walked in with a young lady already expecting them.
"Guess your new best friend wasn't kidding." Amy said before turning towards the woman. "Will Derek be joining us?"
"I'm afraid not. Mr. Chase insisted that those who saved the world should be afforded some semblance of privacy. May I guide you to the private room?"
"Sure." Joey nodded. The Red and Pink Rangers went to the back, marveling at the room typically reserved for high end customers. "The others should be here any minute now."

Flynn arrived not long after Dorian, tucking his hands in his pockets as he looked around. He spotted Joey and Amy, heading for his friends. "Hey, guys."

"D!" "Flynn!" Joey stood up, welcoming his friends, putting arms around them as they got closer to sitting down.
"Glad you guys could make it!" Amy said, happy to see her comrades filing in.

Jaguar arrives at the restaurant, silent as before as he avoided eye contact from the others.

"I thought I was supposed to be the brooding one." Brooklyn walked into the private room, joking with Jaguar albeit with a straight face.

"Ever since the other day when we thought Joey was dead, he's been in a bad mood," Flynn said. "Caught him packing his bags before Prometheus showed up, and we got into it." He sat down and shrugged, folding his arms. "So Jag's been in a bad mood ever since."

"Come on now, Jag." Joey walked up to the Yellow Ranger, putting a comforting arm around his friend. "I'm sorry for putting you through the shits with me dying but I'm here, we won, and this is a time to move forward. Whatever little squabbles we all had before, it's over now." Joey smiled. Instead of scolding Jag or taking sides, the team leader was preaching unity and positive vibes.

Jaguar sighed, "Yeah, but still. Everything has been thrown in my face since Commander Storm's betrayal. I literally grieved over you only to find out you're fucking immortal," he said directly at the Red Ranger. "I couldn't wrap my head over this revelation and it's driving me crazy."

Dorian nodded. "I have to say... I'm a little unnerved by it as well... I get what you're saying Joey, but that was a lot to take in, actually all if this has been a lot to process from Valentine to Storm to that." He admitted before clearing his throat as he handed each of the rangers a personalized note, which emphasized his feelings about them and what they meant to him as a friend as well as their strengths. He especially had a decorated one for Miss Amy showing still glimmers of that little kid in him.
"Hey Guys.... I just wanted to say... You all mean a lot to me. I never got that opportunity to be apart of a team... I didn't even get a real mentor... In my time I didn't know any of you, you all led different lives... some VERY different." He glanced at Joey as well as Ken laughing to himself. "Hell me Storm was a tubby Janitor for SPD."
"But you guys helped me become better... There were times I didn't feel I deserved the Omega Ranger power... hell sometimes I still feel that way... but I had to save the power... You guys... I owe you my thanks...." he teared up a bit before looking to Amy and Joey.
"If it's not too much to ask... would you guys look out for me? Er.. Little me? Who knows I might grow up to be a Ranger again. Well technically for the first time... but this me... he deserves to know all of you... he deserves... a family." He now was talking to the entire team as a tear came down his face.

"Guys, I get it. It's weird. I promise I had no intention to die nor did I know about my immortality before hand. You guys aren't the only ones impacted by this and again, I'm sorry to anyone who got spooked by my death but it's OVER. I'm alive and Storm has paid for his betrayal." Joey said, insisting that everyone move forward and enjoy the day. After Joey's empasisoned plea, he heard Dorian speak from the heart after he and Amy received personalized notes from him. "Don't worry, D. We'll keep an eye out on you." Amy pulled Dorian into a hug as she promised to watch out over the present version of their friend. As the emotions were really beginning to flow, a strange young man, seemingly the same age as the Rangers burst through the door, wearing what looked to be waiter's attire. He looked around, seeing the six Rangers and Brooklyn and smiled widely, almost as wide as Dorian does in Amy's presence. "I made it! I thought I was gonna miss my window!"

Dorian blinked looking around. "Friend of yours guys?" He looked at the others in attendance as well.

"Not one of mine." Amy spoke up. "Boys?"
Brooklyn and Joey shook their heads, confirming that they didn't know the strange man.
"My bad. I know that was a little weird but I'm a bit behind schedule. My name's Mateo. Chrono Storm Red Ranger and agent with the TMB. I'm here for Dorian." He said, looking at the Omega Ranger. When he realized that didn't sound the best, he tried to clean it up. "Sorry, I'm here to take you home.. back to your time."

Dorian blinked again needing a little more, "I've never heard of you..." Dorian also didn't feel threatened or that he was necessarily lying. He stood up with questions. "Mateo... is... anything different over there?"

"That means I'm doing my job, pretty good." Mateo said, taking his lack of notoriety as a compliment.
"For once..."
"Shut up, Sensei." Mateo said, to what looked like his pocket where his Chrono Com was. "Sorry. Where was I? Oh yeah!" He bridged back to business, snapping his fingers. "I come from an organization charged with protecting the time line. We travel to the past, future, whatever it takes and keep things in order."
"Hold on a second." Amy held her hand up. "Time travel? That's a newer concept, even for us. I'm still working on getting that piece fixed on his morpher."
"I know, that's part of why I'm here. History shows it takes you all years to get time travel at least partly right. Even with Dorian managing to get here months ago, the time travel tech was so rough, it scrambled some of his memories coming here." He said, referring to his memories of most of the Rangers, Commander Storm, etc. "I can get it all straight by taking him with me now." Mateo was about to finish but then he remembered Dorian's other question.
"Sorry, almost forgot. You guys are all alive." He said, pointing to the five Rangers and Brooklyn. As for your dad Dorian...he's alive." Mateo said, stopping just short of elaborating, knowing it would create chaos if he did.
