Amara frowned. "Aw, man...do we have to be done? I have to face Boss when we get back," she said.
Jax laughed. "Ha! Now you'll get to find out just how scary she can be," he said. "But, honestly, once you get past the rocky shell, she'll only have a ten percent chance of ripping your spine out and beating you with it."
"Big brother...you are not helping!" Amara growled, sticking her tongue out at her brother under her helmet.
"Hey, why don't you guys stick around a bit? There's some things that we wanna know after your team up with the Lightspeed Rangers!" Mackenzie spoke to the Galaxy Rangers.
Leo scratched the back of his head, "I dunno. I'm pretty sure we have some things to do," he said but the other Rangers beat him to it. "No we don't! We'd love to know a lot about you guys! What better way than getting to know the new guys?" Damon said with a smile.
"I'm with Damon on this one," Kai joined in.
"Us too!" Maya and Kendrix exclaimed.
"So am I," Mike spoke last.
"Well, then it's official. We should head back to Divatox and check in with her. I have a feeling that she might be worried," Astraios spoke and Tyler laughed a bit. "I'm pretty sure she ain't that worried, but yeah let's get back to the Command Center," he said.

"You guys go ahead." Derek spoke to the group. "I have to take care of some important business so I'll catch up with y'all later." The Red Ranger spoke, wanting to handle this vital matter now before it gets lost in the cracks.

Amara huffed. "Alright...let's get this over with, I guess," she said. "You guys have fun and I suppose we'll meet up later?"
"Have fun, little sister," Jax said with a grin.
"Hey, fuck you man," Amara said with a bit of a laugh. "Remember I know where you sleep!"
"And you forget who does the laundry," Jax said with a smirk, folding his arms in triumph.
Amara blinked, glaring at her brother before sighing in defeat. "Yeah, ok..."

"That actually wasn't what I was talking about but uh....you're welcome to tag along." Derek smiled, trying to clarify without going into too much detail.

Amara shrugged. "Either way," the Pink Ranger said with a bit of a smile.
Jax put his hand on Amara's shoulder. "C'mon. There's time to get terrorized by Boss later. Let your boyfriend have fun on his own," he said with a grin.
"Hey!" Amara laughed.

"Hey!" Derek laughed nervously at the sound of the "B" word. For a moment, a blush appeared on his cheeks, causing the color of his face to temporarily resemble the color of his spandex. Thankfully for him, he was still wearing his helmet, thus avoiding exposure. "But uh yeah, whatever you want to do, that's cool."

For right now, I'm really famished. Lunch is on me!" Tyler exclaimed. "Hold on... since when are you loaded?" Leo asked and the Yellow Ranger turned to him. "I'll tell you everything," he said with a wink. "Now, let's get outta here!" As the Crystal Machine Rangers celebrate their victory against Trakeena, the Galaxy Rangers joined them to spend some time with them and get to know them more. The battle was great by they were indeed relieved that the bug queen was gone. Narda and Crow had watched the battle and they were highly impressed by how the Rangers were growing as a team and they chose to back away for now and disappeared into thin air. END OF EPISODE EIGHTEEN ________________
Episode Ninteeen: A Family Reunion The Rangers get a surprise visit from Astraios' adoptive father and uncle, King Kunzite, and Admiral Jasper who had followed the Silver Ranger to Earth and is reunited with Divatox, however, Gregory creates a monster that resurrects all of the past monsters to take on the Crystal Machine team.
Days had passed since the defeat of Trakeena, the Rangers had kept themselves relaxed, even though they began to start to become more fixed into Space Pirates, especially Divatox who began to keep her focus on them as she began realizing that they were getting stronger than before. She began typing on the computers as she began to look at last fights they had with the Space Pirates and she began to suspect that Gregory might not be the true leader of the Space Pirates, and that someone else might be behind the leadership. The former Space Pirate continued to work on the computers, her eyes glued to the screen. In the Youth Center, Tyler, Mackenzie, and Astraios came together, talking to Jason and Aisha who were present along with Hiro who had the day off from his restaurant. "Wait! The Galaxy Rangers fought with you!?" Jason asked and the three Rangers nodded fully. "Oh yeah, you know the Power Rangers Memorial Exhibit in the Angel Grove Museum, right?" Tyler exclaimed. "Yeah, Jason and I went there when it opened. What happened?" Aisha questioned. "Three of the memorabilia were stolen, the first one was Ecliptor's Sword which they took to revive Ecliptor and we fought him with the Space Rangers. After that, they took Trakeena's staff and revived her and even took Leo's Armor Key which she nearly tried to use against us which thank God we were able to get them out of her grasp. The Space Pirates are getting tougher than before and I'm starting to suspect that Gregory ain't the actual leader of the Space Pirates," Tyler spoke his explanation. "Do you really think that might be a possibility?" Hiro asked. "We're not possibly sure. But it seems like it," Mackenzie said. "And I'm feeling pretty uneasy about it." "I feel the same way, but we can't let it get to us. The Space Pirates will do what it takes to have their way. We have to protect the planet before they could do anything else," Astraios spoke. "Yeah, you're right about that," Tyler said. "It's getting harder than before but I ain't gonna get my ass kicked by them." "If Aisha and I still had our powers, then you guys would get all of the help from us," Jason said with a chuckle and Hiro smirked and nodded, "Same goes for me. I'm not going to let them anyone either," he said. "Hiro, you don't even have powers," Mackenzie said with a smile. "No, but he did tell us that he is skilled in kenjutsu. He even showed us his skills and he ain't playing," Tyler said and Hiro grunted in confidence. "But when the time comes and the Space Pirates are able to show their asses, we'll be ready." _____________________ Meanwhile in the city, two figures donned in cloaks walked together as they looked around to see the citizens staring at them in slight confusion shown on their faces, while others began to stare at them suspiciously. They stopped at a window where it had televisions which showed footage of the Crystal Machine Rangers and they looked directly at the Silver Ranger who was seen fighting the Swabbies with his Celestine Jack. They turned their gaze to each other when the recognize the Sixth Ranger. "So, he is here," a deep male voice exclaimed. "Thank goodness." "Well, what are we waitin' for? Let's go find 'im," the second male voice exclaimed.

In the days that passed since the teamup with the Lost Galaxy Rangers, Derek put his plan into action to ensure that what happened with Trakeena and Ecliptor never happens again. So to prevent this, Derek bought the Angel Grove museum, citing an expansion of his portfolio. Nobody really batted an eyelash, seeing as he kept the entire staff in their roles and even gave out immediate raises, to their approval. With the museum now under his ownership, Derek made one noticeable change. He had all of the weapons both good and evil removed, leaving only the damaged relics that Gregory or anyone else couldn't do anything with. He had them all transported to the Command Center until he could figure out a permanent solution but at least for now, the remaining weapons and gear were safe and Derek could refocus on his primary business ventured.
The live action King of Games was sitting in his office using the brutality of Eivor in East Anglia to clear his head regarding everything that was going on. Even without those weapons in play, the sudden shift in Gregory's tactics is leading him to believe that there may be someone else in play, someone potentially more dangerous than the pirate they've been contending with for the better part of a year and that worried him greatly, worried that the power they have may not be enough. It actually caused him to wish that he had one of those fancy battilizers that Andros and Leo have.
On the civilian side, there was the issue with speaking to Boss which he had been putting off because of the museum purchase and partially because he didn't want to upset his longtime friend. At the end of the day, he made a promise to Amara to make sure things were smoothed over and that was exactly he was going to do.
"Hey Boss! Can you come here for a sec!?" Derek shouted, ignoring common diplomacy. Moments later, Boss rolled into his office.
"Hey DC. What's up? You wanted to see me?"
"Yeah." Derek admitted. "I actually need to talk to you for a sec."

In the days since taking down Trakeena, Amara had found herself enjoying her new job immensely. Sitting in her pod with her set up and headphones on, the Pink Ranger was truly enjoying having her own time in the spotlight with gaming. She had a list of games she wanted to run through on her stream, and the first that caught her eye was Mass Effect. Seeing as the Legendary Edition had recently come out, it gave the Pink Ranger enough of an opportunity to jump right in.
Today saw her sitting slack jawed at the scene that had just taken place near the end of the first game, where Wrex, a Krogan and one of the oldest members of her squad, had been arguing with Shepard about curing the genophage thanks to Saren's experiments on the planet Virmire. Unfortunately, she'd made a bad call, and one of her other companions, human solider Ashley Williams, had killed Wrex to stop him rampaging.
"Oh, no...oh, no that did not just happen," she said, her eyes wide as she looked at the chat. "Chat, I'm sorry! I made the wrong call! Oh, no...awww, Wrex...damn man, that sucks. How in the hell is that going to affect 2 and 3?! Oh, my God did I just screw up the entire rest of this Shepard's story?! Ahh.....oh, no!" She grabbed the control as it had fallen out of her hands and into her lap and she looked at the camera. "Shit. Well, I suppose we keep pushing on with the story without Wrex. Gonna suck not having my Krogan. We need to talk to Kirrahe and get moving. We're so close to the end of the game." ______________________________
Jax, meanwhile, had been watching Amara's stream while sitting in the Command Center, cataloging the various Ranger and enemy weapons and gear. Seeing staffs, blasters, swords, some morphers, and even Megazord parts, the Blue Ranger was slightly overwhelmed as he walked through the crates and boxes.
He picked up a Power Coin, looking it over and being very surprised at the weight in his palm. "You guys have seen better days, haven't you? Dinosaurs, mythical beasts, ninja spirits. You went through hell, huh?" he asked, setting the Coin back in the box with it's companions. "Man...one day our gear might be on shelves like this. THat's a scary thought. Couldn't die in combat over the sea, and i might die in combat fighting assholes from space that are hellbent on getting one woman back. What even is my life?"

Divatox turned to Jax and she removed herself from the computers and walked up towards the Blue Ranger, "You know you don't have to stay here," she spoke to him as she made her approach.

"Sure." Boss sat down, briefly checking her phone. "Everything okay? It's a bit early for your pre-lunch snack."
"Yeah, I'm good." Derek laughed. "It's actually about Amara." The right hand woman's expression visibly changed when her name left his lips.
"What about her? Did she screw something up already?"
"Nah nah! Numbers are good. She's already ahead of pace in terms of many of our new streamers and I'm getting good feedback from the peeps on her floor."
"No doubt from the horny boys."
"From boys and girls." Derek corrected her. "That's actually the reason why I called. Is there a reason why you've been giving Amara such a hard time? I mean from E3 all the way up to now, you've been kinda rough on her and she hasn't done anything to you." Derek asked in a calm manner.
"It isn't what she's doing to me. It's what she's doing to you."
"Ummmmmm... I'm confused." Derek scratched his head. "What did she do? You lost me."
"The same thing as all of the others. There was Brenda, Latisha, Linda, Felicia, Dawn, LeShaun, Ines and Alicia. Now you get to add Amara to that list."
"Wait." Derek chuckled. "First, are you quoting.. never mind. What did she do that was so horrible?"
"She's playing you and you're falling for it. It's the same as all of these other girls that are either thots, want you for your money or want you for your clout. Or is she different because she wants you for your spandex?"
"None of the above!" Derek exclaimed. "Look, Amara is my friend. And yes, she's a very beautiful friend but we're not dating and we're not doing the horizonal hoolah." Derek reached into his top drawer and grabbed a bag of hot fries, beginning to crunch away. "And still, you seem awfully bothered by her and yes, you get overprotective but I've never seen you this worked up over a girl. Is there something I'm missing?"
"She's just.. something's off. I don't trust her."
"Okay. What has she done to earn your ire?" Derek asked. "This is a bit extreme, even for you." He tilted his bag in her direction, prompting Boss to take a few chips out to me. "Look, Amara is good people. She's kept me alive plenty of time and you know what you mean to me. So it would be really cool if y'all could get along." Derek placed his hand on top of Boss's. "Please?"
Boss jerked her hand away, turning her head slightly, prompting Derek's eyes to grow wide. "Oh crap, I'm sorry! I forgot to wipe my hands." He grabbed a napkin to wipe the crumps off of his hand and then the crumbs that he accidentally got on her hand.
"It's uh okay." Boss couldn't bring herself to tell him why she removed her hand but couldn't help but laugh nervously as he blamed her sudden reaction on hot cheeto crumbs. "But yeah, I'll try and be nicer but if she tries anything funny..."
"I know, I know. That's all I can ask for." Derek smiled. Once the two had an understanding, Boss quickly left his office, leaving him more confused than when she entered.

Divatox turned to Jax and she removed herself from the computers and walked up towards the Blue Ranger, "You know you don't have to stay here," she spoke to him as she made her approach.
Jax looked up at Divatox and nodded, standing up and dusting his legs off. "I know. BUt it's my day off from work at Dream Chasers, so what am I gonna do? I don't sit at home like Amara does and I'm not a gamer like her, Derek, and Tyler. Stuff needs cataloging and I wasn't doing anything, so thought I'd work on it," he said with a bit of a shrug. "Keeps my brain occupied from thinking about these again." He tapped his arms and sighed, pushing his sleeves up. ________________________________
Amara set her controller down as she saved her Mass Effect game, giving a stretch. "Alright, guys. Let's stop saving the Galaxy for now and we'll finish up Mass Effect tomorrow!" she said. She looked at the chat and laughed. "No, NoobBeast, I'm not seeing anyone, and thanks for the offer, but I'm not really looking right now either." She was lying through her teeth because of her whatever-it-is relationship with Derek, but none of the chat needed to know.
"So! While we all still reel from watching Wrex get shot in the back by Ash, let's unwind for a couple of hours and do some Minecraft," the Pink Ranger said with a smile. "Sound like fun? Maybe I'll open it up and have a few of you guys on to play too! Sound good?" As she shut off the Mass Effect app and opened up Minecraft, she laughed and smiled as she watched chat go back and forth. "Oh, you guys stop it. DOn't speculate about my love life! That's not fair. I can't make fun of you all like you're doing to me." She pouted and grinned, pushing her hair out of her eyes. She looked at one chat as it popped up, and she bit her lip.
Any siblings, Medi?
"SgtSlaughter1999. That's a good question. A little personal, but I can talk about it. I have an older brother. He's only a year older then me. I was actually adopted as a baby by my brother's family, and he and I were ever hardly apart. Always inseparable when our dad was deployed."

Divatox rose a brow as she looked at all of the memorabilia Jax was looking at, "Hmm... you have done a lot cataloging. Was there anything that caught your eye?" she questioned the Blue Ranger.

Once Derek finished his conversation with Boss and she left his office, Derek was pondering what to do next. He could continue playing but since Amara was such a heavy topic of conversation, he logged into the Dream Chasers platform and ended up catching some of his Pink comrade's live stream. He saw so many users giving her a semi-hard time regarding her love life with her eventually answering that she was off the market and not looking. The response left him slightly bummed as he didn't realize she was lying to the viewers but he was able to snap back when he remember her previous response the last time they had a conversation with her not wanting to push too deep in that direction right now with everything going on. For now, all he could do was finish his chips and figure out what to do for a pre-lunch snack.

Divatox rose a brow as she looked at all of the memorabilia Jax was looking at, "Hmm... you have done a lot cataloging. Was there anything that caught your eye?" she questioned the Blue Ranger.
Jax smiled softly, looking at the items in front of him. "Honestly, if I had my way and room to put it, that Thunder Megazord head would be going home with me," he said. "But in all seriousness, seeing all of this makes me realize just how deep we're in. One thing goes wrong and...our weapons and morphers would be on that wall with things like the TyrannoStaff or the Power Coins. Even this." He held up a Turbo Morpher Key, and he flicked it open. ______________________________
Amara kept fielding questions as she started playing Minecraft, gathering her first night supplies. "Oh, come on, guys. Stop asking me!" she said with a laugh. "That's all personal stuff, and I won't go into it on stream. Least during a game stream. If I do a chill just chatting stream one day, maybe."
"How'd you get your new job at Chasers?" asked one member of chat.
"Ok, that's a fun story. My brother, who's a retired Air Force pilot, needed a job. He found out Chasers was hiring for a security spot and he got hired. I got to know the place when I'd visit Jax or whatever I'd do. Well, I'm sure you guys have all heard about these Power Rangers that have been running around. THe sparkly ones with the cool gemstone machines?" she asked, lying to make the story sound convincing. "Well, they had a monster fight at my old job, where I did the Mediflight stuff. Well, the place got destroyed, and I was out of work. Spent a few weeks putting in applications but nobody needed a medical pilot!"
She turned her camera and jumped back as a Creeper tried to blow up on her. "Not today, Moss Boi!" she said, grinning. "Well, anyway. I was with my brother at the Youth Center, and he came in, talked to Jax for a minute and asked about me. Told him I was still looking for work and he offered me a place on the Stream Team."
Sure, sounds like you're sleeping your way to the top! someone else said, an eyeroll emoji playing as well. Other comments rolled in and told him to shut up and watch his mouth, but Amara smiled softly.
"Don't worry about it, Chat. He's entitled to his opinion, even if he is wrong. Mr. Chase is just a really good friend that helped my brother and I out when we were both in really bad spots. He's a good dude, and honestly he's better then my boss from the flight crew. DOesn't hurt taht he's cute," she said with a grin. She knew she'd get shit for that comment from her brother and possible Mackenzie and even Derek, but she had to have some fun with the stream.
