Amara sighed softly. She knew that Derek was silently judging her changing the subject, and she knew she was stupid for doing it. She also knew that she'd be better off going back to her mother's and talking. She tapped her fist against her thigh softly, biting her lip. "You'd rather me go to the house and talk to Mom instead, wouldn't you?" she asked. "Derek, I..."
"Yeah, we already know Ana is worried about you, the longer you wait, the worse it'll be. But hey, whichever order you want to go in, I'm fine with but a sit-down with your mom sometime soon would be great and soon meaning today." Derek smiled.

Colt began evaluating his students while they tested for their new belts. He also kept a keen eye on the other side of the room so no shenanigans were going on. After a while, he assembled the students yet again and presented the tested students with their new belts. "You guys were awesome today. I'm very proud of you all. So, like I stated earlier, I promised you pizza, right? Well, I'll call the Youth Center and let Mr. Hank know that we are on our way." Colt said as the class was super excited as they all went to get loaded up with their parents or to drive themselves. Colt took out his phone and dialed the youth's center's number. "Hey, Mr. Hank. It's Colt. I got the kids coming for their reward that I called about the other day. I got the cash already to pay for it. We will be there in a few. See you then." Colt said before he hung up the phone and got dressed in his civilian attire and locked up the shop before heading towards the Youth Center on his Harley to meet up with the kids and parents in the parking lot.
Hank got the call from Colt and he smiled and Tyler looked at him, "Hank, what's up?" he asked.
"Colt is gonna be here with some students. I had arranged a nice pizza party for 'im and the little rockstars of his. I supposed that ya haven't met 'im yet," Hank spoke to the former Yellow Ranger and he shook his head.
"Nah, is he a friend of yours?"
"Ya betcha, he's a tough cookie. He grew up in one of th' toughest neighborhoods in Angel Grove an' he had to fend for 'imself," Hank said as he lets out a sigh. "I really felt bad what he had t' go through, livin' with a single mom while tryin' to survive where one place is riddled with lotsa crime."
Tyler furrowed his eyes, "That don't sound so pleasant," he said before the sounds of the door were heard once again and he turned around to see who had come in.

Those sounds that Tyler heard was the sounds of young kids to young adults coming in for pizza. Colt had the kids line up by the door to show respect and discipline when he arrived. Before Colt could resume control, one of the young adults looked at the bar where Tyler was sitting and immediately recognized who Tyler was and he began freaking out. "That's him! That's Tyler Leighton! Best Youtuber and Gamer and ranks high above Markiplier and PewDiePie and he's here at the center!" One of the students said before some of the other students recognized who Tyler was too. "Alright, settle down, settle down. I'll talk to Mr. Hank and if you calm down maybe I can persuade Mr. Tyler to maybe sign some things or have pizza with us. Meanwhile, find your seats, chillout, and I'll go get the pizza's." Colt stated before he made sure the kids were seated before heading to the counter and smiling at Hank before shaking his hands with a firm and hardened grip. "Thanks, Mr. Hank, I owe you for this. These kids been looking forward to this all day." Colt stated as he handed Hank the money from his wallet. He then looked at Tyler. "Excuse me, sir. My name is Colt Steiner. Some of my students are fans of yours. Would you mind if you signed some things or even come join us for pizza? I'll pay if I have to, sir." Colt said as he looked at Tyler.

Tyler was shocked by the excited reactions of the kids when they saw him and smiled before turning to Colt, "It's nice to meet you. And don't worry, I never turn down my fans," he said and Hank laughed as he walked up to Colt.
"I gotcha covered, partner," he said.
As Tyler began to interact with his younger fans, Mackenzie finally made her way to the scene and was shocked, "Whoa! Am I interrupting anything?" she asked and Tyler looked up. "Mackenzie, hey!" he smiled at the former Green Ranger.

Amara smiled a bit and nodded. "Alright, I'll make you a deal. We go see what Tyler wants--and see if I can't get him to give me first crack at this game he's been working on, and after we're done we'll go see my mom. If we're lucky there's some Ghost Pepper Thai Curry left from last night," she said.

"Deal! And only because of the curry." Derek joked, although he really enjoyed Ana's cooking which would explain why he hasn't hired a professional chef.
"Let's head out. If we're lucky and Ty doesn't talk our heads off, we can get to Ana's in time for lunch!" Derek perked up while walking downstairs.

As Hank began to serve the students the pizza, Tyler turned to Mackenzie who looked at him, "You sent me and the others a text about hashing things out?" she asked the Yellow Ranger which he stopped signing and he took a deep breath. "Yeah... but I wanna wait until Amara and Derek show up," he said.
"They should be coming anytime soon," the former Green Ranger exclaimed. "But it sounds like it's important."
Tyler looked at Mackenzie and then looked at the album that he had released before signing it for one of Colt's students, "Well... I have been thinking about the last two years." he said. "It's been a very long time since we fought the Space Pirates."
Mackenzie looked at Tyler and her eyes turned soft, "Y-yeah, I do remember. You can't stop forgetting about that, huh?" she asked.
Tyler lets out a slightly sad laugh, "Yeah... I mean I've been doing good with myself. Hell, we've been doing good with our lives since then, but I can't stop thinking about it," he said. "I really want to talk this along with Amara and Derek. I don't want to leave them out because they've been through this too."

AMara laughed, following her boyfriend downstairs. "Starting to think you only love me for my mother's cooking," she said. "Which I would honestly be fine with, by the way. Is that weird? Probably a little." She shook her head and smiled. "Good thing I grabbed my wallet and phone when I went downstairs earlier. Otherwise I'd have to double back upstairs and get my purse. But nobody screws with my stuff, so it'll be fine in my pod."

"Ana is a wonderful woman." Derek chuckled as he got to his car, waving at security on his way out of the way. "BUT I'm feeling great about the Ratcliffe I've got." He smiled, opening the door to his car for his girlfriend.

Amara smiled, putting her hand on the door. "And you better remember that, buster," she said with a smirk before getting into the car. "Because don't forget, I can kick your ass."

"I totally get that. I'm pretty sure they'll be here soon. So therefore we'll be able to talk about what had happened for the last two years, hopefully we'll be able to get the things out of our chests," Mackenzie said with a smile, giving Tyler the pat in the back while looking at the children who were approaching him, asking him about what was he was about to do for his career and the former Green Ranger snickered.
"While we wait, we can get to know more about your fans."
Tyler shook his head, "Yeah, you right," he said. "I don't think Hank would be able to cope with the craziness without Colt here," the Yellow Ranger commented and Hank heard him.
"I resent that!" he called out. ______________________________________________
Inside of the city, former Dino Thunder mentor, Hayley Ziktor was at the Farmer's Market, doing a little shopping for herself. She lets out a small yawn for it had been days since the dig-up with the fellow paleontologists and she was still miffed over how her fellow partner, Tommy Oliver bailed on her when she needed his help. However, she remembered discovering the small chest and what was in it, wanting her to examine what was inside of it came from and how much power they had. Thankfully, she was able to discover where they came from and where their power came from, making her realize that the battle for the Earth's peace was still going on and without the Power Rangers around, she knew that the planet will be needing a new team of heroes and time was already ticking away. She tried to keep herself calm as she continued to continue on with her shopping until she ends up hearing the news on the radio which made her drop her bags onto the ground.
"BREAKING NEWS: We are getting reports that a group of demonic creatures is walking around the city, inflicting massive destruction in their wake. Police and SWAT forces are being involved to take care of the situation and are ordering all of the citizens to evacuate their current locations as soon as possible and seek shelter. No further updates have been reported at this time, but this is a state of emergency," the news radio began to explain and all of the guests of the Farmer's market began to panic as the news report was starting to spread through radio and on TV.
Hayley furrowed her brows and she quickly made her leave from the outside shopping center.

Amara smiled, putting her hand on the door. "And you better remember that, buster," she said with a smirk before getting into the car. "Because don't forget, I can kick your ass."
"So violent! And here I am being so sweet, pure, and wholesome." Derek grinned, closing her door before getting in the car himself.
Wasting no more time, Derek drove to the Youth Center with great haste. About 10 minutes passed and the pair arrived at the Youth Center. Once parked, Derek got out and opened the door for Amara before closing it once the lady was clear. The young CEO walked inside of the Youth Center and unfortunately for him, his senses were dulled as he didn't notice a few kids swarming him, one of which nearly tackling him to the ground.
"Man what is Hank putting in those burgers?! You kids are strong!" Derek laughed as he continued to be swarmed by others who wanted a few seconds with the gaming legend who most still view as the best of all time.

Amara laughed, watching Derek get swarmed by kids. "Shouldn't you be used to this by now? E3, Comicon, Sony panels, that one Nintendo Direct," she said with a laugh. She looked over and saw Tyler and Mackenzie, and she smiled and waved. "And Tyler's swarmed by the other half." She leaned up and kissed Derek's cheek. "You have fun with these ones. I'll go save Mack from the other half."

Tyler turned around and he saw Derek Chase finally making his grand appearance, "Well, looky here! Mr. Dream Chasers himself!" he said with a smile and then turned to Amara, "And the Pink Ranger herself, Amara! How y'all doin'?"

"Sure, no pressure!" Derek exclaimed. As Amara eluded to, Derek was used to the swarms of kids and even adults and this group was relatively mild. Like the seasoned pro that he is, he spoke with each kid, taking selfies and signing whatever was put in front of him.
"We're having problems with the new Star Wars. Can you help us with some tips?" One kid asked.
"I can't right now but I'll tell you what, how about... I stream tonight and you can see everything you need there?" When the kids screamed their approval, Derek laughed, rubbing the back of his head. "I guess that was a good answer."
After satisfying the kids, Derek walked towards the table where he spotted MacKenzie and took a seat. "Whew! Those kids sure know how to make a guy feel special." He said before speaking to the others.
"Hey guys. It's been a while."
