Dorian stood up and looked to the group as he gave a nod to Joey and a hug to Amy. "I don't know what will be waiting for me back there... but you guys prepared me. See you guys in 20 years." He half joked before walking over to each of the other Rangers. "Jag... you're so much stronger than you know, whatever you decide to do you will succeed. Flynn your support for your friends is unmatched... Ken should be able to attest to that. Ken.. keep fighting the good fight, Teanna is prud of the King You've become."
"Miss Amy... Thank you for everything." He couldn't narrow down what she meant to him.
He then stepped up to Joey offering a salute. "Commander Brooks." He said like a soldier before laughing at himself. "You taught me so much... and how to be a leader... Thank you."

Amy nodded, pulling Dorian into one more hug.
Joey smiled, giving the young Ranger a quick hug after Amy gave him a big squeeze. "Happy to help. Just try not to kill me when you get back." The Red Ranger joked.
After all of the hugs and goodbyes were done, Mateo stepped up, revealing his Storm Morpher. "Thank you all for not making this weird. I hope to see you all again." The time traveler bowed before firing a single shot into the sky, producing a blinding light. When the light faded, there were quite a few changes. The memories of everyone had changed a little bit. Instead of Mateo and that exchange, the Rangers were all given memories where Dorian's morpher had a fail safe that pulled him back to the future, effectively ensuring that no one ever knew Mateo was there, thus covering his tracks while he took Dorian home.
"Bright ass portal. Guess I shouldn't complain too much since it got D home." Amy admitted while rubbing her eyes. "Looks like they thought ahead." She said of the Omega Ranger's future allies.
"At least he's finally whole." Joey smiled. "What about you guys? Without all of the factions, we don't need everyone as a full time Ranger anymore. What do you guys have planned for the extra time?"

Flynn folded his arms, leaning back in his seat. He honestly hadn't thought much about life after SPD, but he figured he'd need to start. "I don't know, honestly. MIght get back in the gaming circuit. I miss EVO and the tournaments. I dont' even care if I win or lose, I just want to have fun again."

"Flynn, you have been one of the most loyal knights in my Royal court." Ken spoke up, offering his version of encouragement. "If anyone deserves to take some time to themselves to have fun, it's you, my grand knight." The self-proclaimed king poked his chest out in typical Ken fashion before his expression grew more serious.
"Unfortunately, your king does not have the luxury of rest. I made a promise to Teeanna and I intend to keep it. I have to find her parents and I can't stop until DRAGO is fully off the map."

Jaguar sighed, "After everything that happened, I think I might need a break from this. My mind really needs to get away from the clusterfuck that has happened," he said. "Being a Ranger has been good, but never expected it to go this far."

"At least now you all will have plenty of time to do whatever it is you want. Just make sure to be ready for action when I call." Brooklyn addressed the group.
"When you call? Does that mean?" Amy questioned her friend.
"Yeah. I've been given Storm's old job. I just found out this morning. The powers that be wanted to move on this quickly after what happened to Storm." Brooklyn responded.
"Well I'll be damned." Joey laughed before hugging his best friend. "Congrats, Brother. You deserve it.
"Thank you. I don't plan on taking it easy on you guys but you have my word that my loyalty will never be in question and you'll always have my support."
"Good enough for me!" Joey smiled. "I say let's finally get down to the fun shit. Enough SPD talk for today!"

Flynn smiled, looking at Brooklyn. "Congrats, dude. I'm sure you're gonna be an awesome boss for SPD," he said. "But I gotta agree with my bro! Enough SPD talk. Let's have some fun!"

And fun they had. After finally putting the SPD talk aside, the heroes all enjoyed one another's company, partying well into the night and racking up the bill for the grateful millionaire gaming CEO. Once the partying was done and a few good cries were had, everyone went their separate ways, ready to start the next chapters in their lives. Although they may not be together under one roof anymore, this shared experience will bond our heroes for life and no matter what, when the time comes, these extraordinary young people will answer the call as only SPD can!
THE END?

Joey managed to slip away after the party. His expression was not a happy one as due to the deal he made, he left at his first opportunity when Amy was shit faced drunk and couldn't watch him like a hawk. He managed to make his way to a familiar location... Valentine's Mansion. He got out of the Uber he took and thanked the driver before going inside.
The home was oddly clean, seeing as it's owner was killed a week or two ago. Joey looked around, not seeing anyone. Suddenly a sudden sensation rang in his brain. "The hell? It's the same ringing I felt when..." He quickly turned around, seeing Lord Drago casually looking at some of the art.
"Impressive finding me here. What you're feeling is a spidey sense of sorts but only for immortals. You'll feel that every time there's another immortal nearby. Don't worry though. It goes away pretty quickly."
"You could have just teleported me here or you to me. It would have saved time." Joey shook his head, visibly agitated.
"And where's the fun in that?" Lord Drago snickered while walking to Valentine's fridge. "Plus, you'll see that I was nice enough to let you play with your mortal friends for a while, even let you get some time in with that sweet piece of ass you.."
Lord Drago was abruptly interrupted by the carton of milk he grabbed being shot out of his hand.
"Deal or not, the next one's going in your head if you talk reckless about her again."
"Touchy!" Drago held his hand up, stepping over the bullet ridden milk carton. "Guess there's no room for some guy talk?"
"Guy talk is for friends and we're not friends."
"Pow! Right in my feels!" Drago mockingly leaned over the stove before his demeanor drastically shifted. "I guess this means it's straight to work." Drago snapped his fingers and both he and Joey disappeared. Drago had his plans in place and now with a Ranger among his ranks, he was almost ready to let hell rain down upon this planet.

"Whew! That was close. Had I not wiped their memory of me taking that Dorian guy home, that could have ended really badly. The last thing I need is to screw up the timeline by letting it slip that the TMB is actually a thing."
As soon as he arrived with Dorian in the Omega Ranger's future, he repeated the same memory adjustment process. After he was done, Mateo boarded his ship, Patricia, he sat down in the captain's chair, demorphing and setting his Storm Morpher on the console in front of him.
"Let me guess, another close call?" A floating head emerged from the central console in the middle of the bridge.
"It wasn't that close, Sensei!" Mateo exclaimed, talking to the female AI that served as a mentor of sorts and his encyclopedia for all things time travel and TMB.
"Says the guy that almost forgot to wipe his contacts clean." She spoke, giving the Red Ranger a hard time in jest.
"It wasn't my fault. It was supposed to be quick and clean but Omega had a ton of questions and it was easier to answer them versus trying to force him up here!" Mateo exclaimed.
"Yeah, yeah. Just remember that sentiment when it's time to update my operating system."
"Of course, my dear Sensei!" Mateo leaned back in his captain's chair. "Until then, I'll just kick my feet up and relax after a job well done, especially after having to really work overtime with Dorian's memories. That half assed time travel really messed with his brain cells. He thought the other SPD Rangers were still alive and I still can't believe that he didn't pick up on Joey looking the exact same in his time as he does in 2022. I'm just glad it's all fixed."
"If that's your idea of a job well done, the entire timeline is doomed." The AI joked. The ship Patricia was launched into the sky, taking off and entering the time stream, awaiting their next adventure.
SPD will return in Power Rangers Nitro Blaze and Power Rangers Chrono Storm!
END.
