Author's note:

Sorry, I've been gone for so long. With all of the COVID-19 stuff taking effect, I haven't felt up to writing. And to be truthful, I've had a HUGE case of writers' block so I took a break from writing for a month. Now, I feel refreshed and I'm ready to start this long-awaited sequel. I hope all of you and your families stay safe and healthy.

"Going somewhere?" Asked a cold voice.

"Who are you?" Tommy asked as they turned around and saw a humanlike dinosaur dressed in a black coat. "And how did you get here?"

"I am Mesogog," answered the creature. "I am out to destroy you, Tommy Oliver. And your wife too."

Scary black scaly creatures came walking behind Mesogog. "What have you done to the trannyodrones!" Kimberly cried. She stared at the creatures that once look like tyrannosaurs robots about the size off a human. "They didn't look like this before."

"They transformed into a better-looking fighting machine-"

"-they aren't meant to fight!" Tommy interrupted as he started to breath heavily. "They were supposed to be used research."

"Who cares," remarked Mesogog with an evil grin on his face. "They've been reprogramed to be used for evil purposes."

"Tommy, I think we better go," Kimberly whispered.

"You aren't going anywhere!" Mesogog shouted as he punched a glass window. Instead was a red button and he pressed it. "I will see to that."

"Warning, an explosion will occur in twenty minutes."

Tommy and Kimberly broke out in a run and started to run down the hall and they turned a corner.

"Stop them!" shouted Mesogog as they ran down a flight of stairs. "Bring me the gems I know you have them."

"We don't even know what you are talking about!" Tommy shouted.

"Liar," Mesogog shouted stomping his foot when Tommy and Kimberly reached the bottom of the stair case. "Find them, whatever it takes."


Black plumes of smoke rose above the island and the sharp sawgrass blades burned in the ragged lines towards the trees. Anyone in a plane or riding a boat was bound to see the smoke blowing into the skies.

As they were running through the forest, Tommy and Kimberly could still hear the screams of all of the people left in the lab echoing in their brains. It was the type of scream that would give anyone goosebumps and make your blood run cold. It pierced their brains and ignited a long and dangerous pathway ahead of them. Running for their lives while trying to fight off tryannodrones.

"Tommy, how much further?" Kimberly panted when she wiped sweat off her face.

"We have to keep going," Tommy urged.

"Where are we going to go?" Kimberly asked when they reached a cliff.

"Not good," Tommy gasped when they reached the cliff.

Tommy, they are catching up with us," Kimberly cried as she saw the tryandrones catching up to them. "What are we going to do?"

Tommy looked around and saw there nowhere else to go as flames were closer and closer to them.

"Kim, I'm afraid we're going to have to jump," Tommy warned as he glanced down at the sea.


Tommy Oliver opened his eyes wiping sweat from his forehead. His heart was still pounding and fear was still going through his whole body. Why was he still having this dream? It had been two years since the event and he was over of it, or he thought he was. But, deep down he was afraid Mesogog was still out there waiting for the prefect time to attack. But, when would that time be? But, then again, maybe he was destroyed with the tryandrones when the island exploded.

"Think positive thoughts, Tommy," he said to himself as he took another deep breath. "It was just a dream."

"I love you, Tommy," Kimberly mumbled in her sleep as she turned over. She moved closer to him and rested her head on his chest and put an arm around his waist.

"I love you too, Beautiful," Tommy whispered as he pulled her into his side.

He started to stroke her Carmel hair as he laid in bed wide awake. Until high school he moved around almost yearly and had to leave his old friends behind. One year, he met a girl named Laura Hall who became his girlfriend, but she turned around stabbed him in the back. After Laura stabbing him in the back he told his parents that he was never going to date again. He could remember telling his parents that he'd never date again. But, Jan and James told him that he would. He remembered asking his parents how they met. Jan had known James her whole life because they lived in the same neighborhood and he came over to her house to play after school. They remained friends over the years, but they started to date other people. But, those relationships didn't last. She admitted some of the boys she dated thought that she was cheating on them because she was really good friends with James. It was like that for James as well. After having several breaks up, James asked her if she'd go out with him. She was a little hesitant at first because she didn't want their friendship to end over a dating relationship didn't work out. But, it turned out that dating James was the best thing that ever happened to her. They dated all through high school and married right after graduation. She told him falling in love was a journey and as soon as he found that right girl, his love story would begin.

"Mom, you were so right," Tommy smiled as he put his arm around Kimberly. "We had some rough spots, but I finally married my beautiful princess."

Just six years ago, he thought that Kimberly had fallen in love with someone else and it took him months to recover from the "Dear John" letter. Once he went to college, he saw Kimberly was there at MIT and they were lucky enough to have all their classes together. At first Kimberly didn't like having classes with him, especially when she had to sit by him in every class. But, that started to changed when he was secretly "Pink Ranger Fan" in an online chess website and Kimberly chose him to play with her. She was so lonely just like he was and she told him all about what took place in Florida and the break up letter she received. They had a swimming class together and he suggested that she asked him to be her swimming buddy because he was lonely too. And of course, she chose him. On that same day, they learned that they both received break up letters and that Kimberly's ex-boyfriend wrote. After learning the truth, they decided to be friends again and the rest fell right into place.

"Tommy, how long have you been awake?" Kimberly yawned.

"About an hour," Tommy admitted when Kimberly looked up into his chocolate eyes. "How long have you been awake?"

"About ten minutes," Kimberly revealed giving him a kiss on the forehead. "I felt you pull me into your side."

"I didn't mean to wake you," Tommy apologized. "I was just nervous about the first day of school."

"But, at least we won't have any ranger business to worry about," Kimberly laughed just as the alarm clock went off.

"That is one good thing about the first day of school," Tommy remarked reaching over turn off the alarm clock. "Let's get up and get our shower. We can't afford to be late on our first day."


Meanwhile, a strange woman appeared in the principal's office with a someone dressed in black armor. The woman was wearing a black leather shower like cap over her black hair. She was dressed as if she was going trick or treating because she was wearing black make-up, black leather pants, boots, and a top. If you took a closer look, you'd see a that she was wearing a special belt with a baldric holding her sword inside. With an evil grin on her face she transformed in to woman with short black hair and glasses; a khaki skirt suit and blouse was replacing her leather attire.

"Elsa what are you-"

"-Zeltrax, when I am in my human form I am known as Principal Randall," she corrected.

"What is your first name?" Zeltrax questioned when Randall took a seat at her desk.

"Call me, Elsa," Principal Randall requested. "I hate my first name and don't ask me why. I will tell you when I am ready-"

"Okay, then let's get down to business," Zeltrax requested when he took a seat in front of Randall's desk. "Do you know about Dr. Tommy Oliver and his wife Kimberly?"

"Of course, I do!" Principal Randall hissed slamming her fist down on the desk. "Mesogog sent me her where I can spy on Dr. Oliver without having to worry about being caught. While I'm here I'm going to make sure every student is miserable and unhappy. Including Dr. Oliver's wife. I once dated him when we younger, but we broke up. When I met him again he was already dating his pink princess-"

"I know exactly how you feel," Zeltrax replied. "I hate Tommy Oliver because he stole Kimberly Hart from me. And he's ruined my life. I wanted a job at Anton Mercer Industries. But, did I get the job? No, it went to Tommy Oliver. He's caused me trouble since the day I first met him. My goal is to get revenge on Tommy Oliver for all of the tragic things that he caused to happen to me. The only other person who understood me was Goldar. But, he was gravely injured during a battle, so the only way he could survive was if he was frozen and recovered over time. He's somewhere between Angel Grove and Reefside."

"Zeltrax, Goldar's location is close to Anton Mercer Industries," Elsa revealed with a smile. "Maybe Mesogog could be able to help him."


At long last, Tommy and Kimberly had reached Reefside High after having to set in the traffic during the morning rush hour. Tommy pulled his jeep into the teacher's parking lot and took the first empty parking space that he could find.

"You sure went to a lot of trouble to look nice on your first day," Kimberly giggled as she got out of the jeep and smiled at Tommy's appearance. A pair green dress pants, a pale red dress shirt, a red tie, and a white lab coat. He was even wearing his glasses, which was a first for him since he always worn contact lens in the past. "Those glasses make you cuter, especially with all of your ranger colors."

"Thanks," Tommy blushed as he looked at Kimberly's appearance. A soft pink sleeveless knee length sheath dress and a white floral cardigan. "Even after all this time, I think pink suits you best."


"Which lunch period do you have?" Tommy asked when they started to walk up the stairs. "I have third lunch."

"I have third lunch too," Kimberly answered after she glanced down at her schedule. "Want to meet for lunch?"

"I'd love that," Tommy replied with a smile.

"Tommy! Kimberly! It's been a long time!" beamed a familiar voice.

They turned around to find an old friend standing behind them. And it was Billy Cranston and he hadn't changed a bit. He was dressed in khakis, a blue dress shirt, a royal blue tie, a navy tee shirt and a white lab coat.

"Billy, you're a teacher here!?" Tommy gasped as he hugged his old friend. "I thought you were still on Aquatar with Cestra."

"Actually, my relationship with Cestra didn't work out like I hoped it would," Billy revealed. "I've been back since the fall of 1997. I graduated a year early and I got my degree in science education in the spring of 2000. Then I received my masters the following year. And I just completed my Rank I last fall."

"How long have you been teaching?" Kimberly asked.

"This is my fourth year of teaching and I've already been named the head of the science department," Billy reveal with a smile. "I am teaching chemistry, robotics, and biology. What are you two teaching?"

"I'm teaching Paleontology, underwater paleontology, geology, and fossil collecting," Tommy revealed.

"And I'm teaching health and I'll be teaching under water paleontology with Tommy," Kimberly continued. "It is going to be two periods back to back."


Tommy never imagined that he'd meet an old friend teaching at Reefside. Nor did he ever think that he'd ever see Billy again after he went Aquatar. But, sometimes thinks turn out different than you think they do. Billy had invited them to have lunch with him and after they had lunch he'd show them around the school.

"So, tell me, when did you two start dating again?" Billy asked when he took sip from his Dr. Pepper.

"Actually, we're not dating anymore," Kimberly revealed placing her hand Tommy's hand. "We're married now."

"Really, when did all this happen?!" Billy gasped.

"We met in college at MIT," Tommy began. "And on our first day, we learned that we both received a break up letter from and it turned out to be Kim's ex-boyfriend. After learning the truth, we decided to be friends again and see where we go from there."

"And before we knew it, we were falling in love all over again," Kimberly continued. "We dated for a year and a half, then on my 20th birthday he asked me to marry him. And we got married at Christmas that year."

"I'm so happy for the two of you-"

"Dr. Oliver, Mrs. Oliver, we met at last!"

"Who are you?" Tommy asked as he turned around and saw a woman with black hair and glasses walking over to them.

"I'm principal Randall," answered the woman.

"It's nice to meet you," Tommy said as he shook her hand. "Is it your first day too?"

"Yes, it is," Randall answered in a cold voice, as she pulled her hand away when Kimberly tried to shake her hand. "Dr. Oliver, I don't understand why someone with a PhD in paleontology would want to teach science to a bunch of teenagers."

"I just wanted to live a quiet life," Tommy answered and he put his arm around Kimberly.

"It' still doesn't make a lot of sense," Randall remarked. She glanced down at Tommy's hand and tried to take hold of it. But, Tommy jerked his hand away.

"Why don't the three of us meet after school," Tommy suggested. "You could fill us in on what you expect from your teachers."

" I expect all of my teachers to be as painful and strict as they can possibly be. I tell my teachers they aren't don't their job if a kid smiles in the classroom they aren't doing their job," Randall hissed as she snarled her when she noticed that Kimberly took hold of Tommy's hand. And he didn't pull his hand away from her. " I can't understand why Mrs. Oliver would waste her time in getting a degree paleontology and marine biology. If you ask me, you should have continued your graduate studies in PE and Health Education with a minor in physical fitness. You should have been a fitness trainer instead of a teacher-"

"-Principal Randall I was going to become a fitness trainer," Kimberly interrupted. "But, I wasn't able to take the gymnastics classes because I broke my ankle in two places when I had a gymnastics injury. So, I decided to just major in health and PE education. And I've always had an interest in paleontology and marine biology and I decided that I wanted to teach science classes too."


Meanwhile, Zeltrax stepped through a portal right in front of Anton Mercer Industries. However, the building had been vacant for months. He started walking to an old abandoned storage shed. The old shed was boarded up and there was police tape around the building and even a "Do Not Enter", sign. Zeltrax pulled out his sword and cut right through the boards.

"Excellent," he smiled as he walked into the storage shed.

He walked into the old shed and found it like he had when he last visited it years ago. Most people would think this was an old shed that wasn't no use. But, what they didn't know was that this shed contained a secret chamber holding Zeltrax's old friend inside. Zeltrax struck the back wall with his sword twice and then struck the middle of the floor twice. The floor boards on the left side of the room, revealing a stair case.

"Goldar, I'm on my way," Zeltrax said as he walked down the stair case.


After a long walk down a narrow and twisty stair case, Zeltrax made his way over to a metal door. Like Mesogog, he wanted to see if Goldar was ready to be thawed out. If he was, then they'd have a useful warrior on their team. He taped his sword against the door and a computer screen and a key board appeared on the right side of the door.

"To enter you must answer some security questions," said a strange voice.

Zeltrax looked around and saw he was all alone. He turned to the computer screen and saw the first question appear on the screen.

"What type of creature is hidden inside this hidden chamber?"

"That's easy," Zeltrax said as he typed in "Gold Monkey."

"Correct," said the strange voice. "We're moving on to question number two."

"What is the creatures name?"

Zeltrax typed in Goldar.

"Correct," said the strange voice. "We're moving on to question number three."

"Which villains' did Goldar work for?"

"Goldar told me that he worked for Rita and Zedd," Zeltrax said to himself as he quickly typed in the answer.

"Correct, we're moving on to question number four."

"Which team of rangers did Goldar fight against?"

"It was the first team of rangers," Zeltrax thought as he thought back to seeing the first team of rangers appearing on TV and newspaper. "That's it! I remember hearing that that they called themselves the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers."

"Correct! We're moving on the last question."

Which Ranger did Goldar hate the most?"

"Oh, that is easy," Zeltrax hissed as he typed in the final answer. "It's Tommy Oliver."

"You've answered all of the questions correctly," declared the strange voice as the door swung open. "You may enter!"


After Zeltrax had answered all of the questions correctly, he walked into a cold room with a box in the center of the room. The box had a clear glass lid and Zeltrax was able to get a look at the sleeping Goldar. No wonder, he had been frozen for all those years. He had been severely injured. Goldar's face was covered in scars, but he had one huge scar on his left eye.

"What happened to your wings?!" Zeltrax gasped when he saw half of each wing were sliced off and dried blood covered his wings which covered his soft black feathers, giving them a rougher texture.

Zeltrax looked down at Goldar's chest and noticed all of his breast plates were cracked all over. However, his right breast plate had a huge hole right in the center.

"I knew I'd find you here," said a cold voice.

"Mesogog!" Zeltrax gasped as he turned around to face his master. "I was just checking up on an old friend of mine."

"So, am I," Mesogog answered. The human like dinosaur walked over to Goldar and looked down at the meter showing Goldar's recovery progress. "It looks like Goldar is ready to be thawed out-"

"-are you going to be able to help him!" Zeltrax interrupted.

"Yes, I will. But, Goldar will have to become a cyborg like you," Mesogog explained. "He will be twice as strong as he once was and I'll be sure to give him some good enhancements."

"What can I do for you in the meantime?" Zeltrax hinted with a smile.

"I'm glad you asked," Mesogog smirked as he started to free Goldar. "I want you to go to the museum and cast a spell on the dinosaur statue. It will come to life when Dr. Oliver takes three students to the museum-"

"-wait! How do you know Dr. Oliver is going to the museum?" asked Zeltrax.

"Elsa snuck into Dr. Oliver's classroom during lunch when Tommy went outside to meet his wife for lunch," Mesogog informed placing his hand on Goldar's forehead. "Three students have been given detention and Elsa is going to assign Dr. Oliver detention duty after school today."

"Mesogog, I want Kimberly to go along so she can witness the destruction of Tommy," Zeltrax replied as he opened up a portal.

"I will get word to Elsa!" Mesogog promised.


Author's note:

I remember that in the original dino thunders series the dinosaur statue came alive suddenly. So, I thought that it would be interesting to show the villains planning on making it come to life.
