Why Did you pick Devin?

Amber's POV

My zord stops when I take my hands off of the purple orb. The next thing I know I'm laying face down on the beach. As I stand up, I hear a splashing sound as my zord swims away. I look around and am surprised to discover that I ended up at the beach behind my house.

Did my zord tap into my subconscious mind and bring me here?

I walk over to the stairs leading to the backyard, my seven-year-old sister, Mari, standing at the top. She has a shocked expression on her face and asks, "Did that giant sea turtle just spit you out onto the beach?"

Some debut as the purple ranger: I get kidnapped, discover my dino powers and get rescued by my zord. Tracy got hurt because of me. I can't tell Mari or my parents - it's too risky. If Mesogog finds out that she or my parents know I'm a ranger, Mari could get hurt, and if that happens, Mom will ground me till I'm 21.

"Mari, you shouldn't be down here by yourself. You know the rules," I say changing the subject.

"Mom said I should stay away from the water." Mari says, "Amber, why do I need a babysitter? I can take care of myself. I'm not a baby."

"Mom and dad, just want to make sure you're safe that's all,"

"I know, so do you want to come with me? I'm going to our secret hideout," Mari says.

"Maybe next time Mari,"

Mari walks down the stairs and hugs me. Then she sprints down the beach. I sit down on the step and try to figure out how to get back to the lab.

Devin's POV

We pull up to a house in the middle of the forest.

"Who's house is this?"

"This is Dr. Oliver's." Tracy answers.

"Wait, is Dr. Oliver a power ranger?"

"Dr. Oliver has been a ranger before," Wes says.

"Really?"

"Yes, he was the green ranger, white, and red ranger twice," Wes says.

We get out and walk inside. Tracy leads us over to a room that has a t-rex skeleton on the counter. She touches it and a trap door open.

"Were does it lead?"

"To the lab," Tracy answers.

We walk down the stairs. I hear several gasps of disbelief and see Conner, Kira, Ethan and Trent's mouth hanging open as we reach the bottom.

"Tracy, did you lose some brain cells during that fight earlier?" Conner snaps.

"Bringing Devin here was a bad idea," Ethan adds.

"You have my word. I won't tell Cassidy. She already humiliated Tracy once with that video of her date with Mike. I don't want to see how the student body will react if they find out your secret."

"Guy, we are running out of students we can trust to protect the silver dino gem. It's either Devin or some random freshman. I believe Dustin is the best option we have. I can't believe that my teammates and friends don't trust me." Tracy says.

"Tracy has a point, she wouldn't have brought Devin here is she wasn't confident that he couldn't be trusted to keep our secret," Dr. Oliver says.

"Before we trust Devin, shouldn't we make sure that the gem will bond with him?" Conner asks.

Tracy leads me over to a table that has the Silver Dino gem sitting on a baseball display stand. As we get close to it, I look over at Tracy and she nods reassuringly. I look back over at the gem and then slowly reach out my hand see it start to glow.

"Is the glowing a good sign?" I ask.

"Yes," Tracy answers.

I hear a dinosaur roar as I pick up the dino gem. I see a vision of a dinosaur with a horn-like crest on its head that walks on two legs. When it fades, I look back over at Tracy.

"So, the dinosaur vision is another good sign, right?"

"Yes, that means the gem is starting to bond to you," Dr. Oliver says, "What did it look like?"

I tell Dr. Oliver what I saw, and he says that the dinosaur is called a Tsintaosaurus.

"I'll get to work building you a morpher," Hayley says.

"So, what do we do while she is doing that?"

"We should try to locate Amber," Tracy says.

"Amber from the Softball team, she is a ranger too?"

"Yes, she is purple," Tracy says.

A robot owl flies over to us. It lands on Tracy's shoulder.

"Tracy, who is the owl?"

"His name is Circuit," Tracy says.

"I have good news my scanners picked up a signal from Amber's morpher," Circuit says.
