Ranger Rebirth

OK here it goes, the usual disclaimer applies, and warning if memory serves this chapter deals with a rather unfortunate theme, and will piss off all the Ethan fans, oh and dont worry, the good stuff starts soon

“What, please tell me this is some fucking sick joke.” Connor exclaimed, he couldn’t believe what he had just heard. As gently as possible Kira prepared to explain. “no it happened a few days ago and” “Its all my fault” this came from Ethan who up until this had been slumped against the wall. “Dr O. had tried to save me from some KKK wannabes but one of them had a gun and.” Before he could finish the former Blue Ranger collapsed and curled up against the wall as if he was trying to make himself sink into it.
“No Ethan it wasn’t your fault, those assholes were out for blood, and if they had weapons then they probably planned on using them.” Before Trent could finish what he was saying the bathroom door opened and a man who looked like a nude clone of Connor walked out “ hey bro if you were planning an orgy you could have warned me, and what’s wrong you would think…” before he could finish though Kira decided that she had had enough and slapped the man before picking up Ethan and walking out of the room. “Eric you idiot will you just for once” “whoa bro what just happened and who are these guys, oh wait don’t tell me, the girl is Kira and that would make this guy Ethan right?” seeing the two together Trent grinned although he had to admit seeing Eric wander around with his amazing body on full display and what looked to be about 11” of cock hard and ready like that almost made him wish that his old friend was as liberated. “Actually The names Trent, Ethan is the one who just left with Kira, maybe you could try to calm her down Connor, and while your gone I can try to help Eric here understand his mistake.” “Thanks Trent, why do I get the feeling this is gonna take a while.” Trent grinned again but there was less humour in his face this time. “Yeah well you know Kira” “ right, thanks man” as soon as Connor sped from the room he turned to Eric, “OK now where to begin.”

Meanwhile outside Kira was half walking half carrying Ethan, “ of all the insensitive self possessed egotistical,” she muttered only to stop short when she almost bumped into two men, one of them was dark haired although similar to Merrick in so far as his hair had two stripes in it, “are you all right? You both seem distraught.” She then grinned as she recognized who the man was “Your Andros right, and I’m fine, and Ethan will be OK he just needs a minute.” “How do you know who we are miss, and who are you for that matter, you sure as hell don’t work here.” This came from Zane who immediately moved beside Andros and placed a protective arm around his lovers’ waist. “Her name is Kira, and you can relax Silver she is a former Yellow Ranger, just like Dustin.” At this Kira jolted herself in shock, then after gently placing her silent companion on a chair she turned to Merrick, “what do you mean ‘just like Dustin’ I thought he was in Blue bay Harbour.” “No Kira the young wind ranger and his beloved moved here about 8 months ago.” At this Kira grinned, “beloved huh, so he finally picked between Shane and Hunter?” “Yes needless to say that he chose Hunter, I gather Shane has always been more like a sibling than a mate.” At that he paused and glanced at the chair and Ethan. “Did your reunion with young Connor not go well,” “no it was fine until his brother walked in and ruined it by making jokes, I mean come on we had just told Conn about Dr O.” “Tommy? What is wrong and how do you know the red zeo ranger?” Merrick glanced at this “patience Andros all will be revealed in time.” As he heard this, Ethan woke up to his surrounds, “ It was my fault.”

He had just finished helping Haley at the Cyber space, and decided to find a quiet spot in the forest to run through a couple of kata, after what had just happened he needed to clear his head, Trent had been covered with liquid when a customer had spilled their smoothie on him, and when Ethan went to check on him he had walked in on Trent wearing only the briefest of thongs, his bare torso gleaming as the light in the room accented every muscle on his gentle frame. And it was that image that stuck with the young fighter as he began his workout.
A short while later he had heard the men arrive. “Look at this boys, a freak in our forest.” At that Ethan had stopped and turned to his uninvited companions “is that really the best you can come up with” then they had attacked, and while Ethan had been outnumbered and when one of the men had drawn a knife he thought he was dead, then Dr O. had shown up and started to beat them, each move flowing into the next as graceful and sensually dangerous as the tiger that had once been his zord. Then in the space of an instant it had all gone horribly wrong, two of the men had grabbed Ethan and forced him to the ground then as their friends held Tommy in place, forcing the older man to his knees the group had proceeded to rape the former Tricera Ranger. Then just before Ethan lost consciousness he had seen them shoot Dr Oliver and he heard them say, “This is what happens to niggers and race traitors.” And then there had been screams but after that was a blur until he had woken up at Dr Os house with Haley looking after him, and some cops wanting to know about some bodies in the forest.

“But what I don’t know is how I got to the house, I mean I was out cold in the forest and the police said that they saw claw marks on some of the bodies.” “ Oh my god Eath we had no idea, I mean you never said, and Haley could have mentioned.” Kira knew she was babbling but the shock wouldn’t allow her to slow down. “ and there is no way any of us blame you for what happened bro.” At that the group turned to see Connor standing there. “Kira can we talk.”

In the dressing room Trent was just finishing up with Eric, “so as you can see when you started to joke about Tommy you kind of pissed off one dangerous girl.”
“Yeah I see that, and I wanna make up for it. Any idea how?” as he said it however Eric was moving closer to Trent his shoulder length blonde hair swaying with every step. A daring grin crossing his face.

“So anyway Eric didn’t mean to upset you, it’s just that he’s so used to.” Connor tailed off, he knew what he would have said but he didn’t think that Kira would be able to handle the truth “ used to speaking without thinking? Now why does that sound familiar” Kira teased her friend, it felt right and she noticed Ethan start to relax, probably because of the familiarity to the sound. “ So shall we go back and get the others, from the look of things I think Zane and Cole want their boyfriends back, thanks for refereeing you guys.” Over the goodbyes from their new friends the trio started to return to the dressing room, a strained yet companionable silence falling between them. “Hey Ethan how come you never told us about all of this before?” “ I know what you mean Kira but you have to understand, I mean I was a Ranger for Christ’s sake, and yet I couldn’t even stop some bigots from fucking with me OR Dr O.” “I’m sure the others don’t blame you bro, I mean you were alone and outnumbered, I’m just sorry I wasn’t there for you.” As he said this Connor reached over to his friend and pulled him into a tender embrace. “Not that I wouldn’t love to watch you two get all Red Shoes on me but we should get the guys before your brother thinks I lost it on you Conn.” Kira grinned, she had always known that her friends felt strongly for each other, and had missed the almost flirtatious behaviour from both of them. At that the trio arrived at the door of the dressing room, and Kira quickly threw the door open, only to stop in shock at the sight before her.
