Just something I've been experimenting with. Very different from anything else I've written; inspired by Evadne's BBE. If you like it...well, I've got DotD2 finished...
TOMMY gets chased around an island by weird, lizardy things. He jumps off a cliff just in time as a volcano erupts, eradicating the island.
Some years later...
TOMMY starts his new teaching job.
RANDALL: I'm the principal. I'm scary and probably evil.
TOMMY: Hi, Im Tommy Oliver. Youre probably going to fall for me at some point, so Ill speed things up. Want to go out?
RANDALL: No, Im evil.
TOMMY: Ah well, another time then.
RANDALL: Well, off to be evil!
TOMMY: Hi class, I'm your teacher.
CASSIDY: Hi, I'm a ditz.
DEVIN: Hi, I'm a sponge.
They sponge and ditz until TOMMY gets tired of them.
CONNER: Hi, I'm a jock.
CONNER jocks around until RANDALL catches him.
ETHAN: Hi, I'm a geek.
ETHAN abuses his computer smarts until he gets caught.
KIRA: Hi, I'm a singer. Don't worry about remembering who's who, we're going to repeatedly beat you over the head with it anyway.
KIRA provides free, morally correct entertainment until RANDALL busts her.
Outside...
RANDALL: You're not even Rangers yet and I still hate you. Detention!
CONNER: Dude! Leftover Dustin dialogue!
ETHAN: Computers!
KIRA: Singing!
RANDALL: Tommy, I hate you because you hit on me, so I'm making you supervise detention.
TOMMY: Hi kids, I'm the friendly detention supervisor. Let's beat everyone over the head with our theme again by visiting a dinosaur museum.
CONNER: Dude!
Museum...
ETHAN: Hey, a great big dinosaur.
TOMMY: Ok, go wander in the spooky woods and look for prehistoric things. Of course, you won't recognize them, because we've only had one lesson and you werent in it. Oh well!
TOMMY finds a sign for Anton Mercer Industries.
TOMMY: Hmm...that's mysterious. Better go find the kids I let wander off.
Spooky woods...
ETHAN: Time for me to further establish my geek credentials. Heh-hem..."stuff happens out here."
CONNER: My jock credentials beat your geek credentials, because I can talk about girls as objects.
KIRA: Standing right here.
The ground opens up and swallows them whole.
ETHAN: (muffled) Told you so!
Back at the museum...
TOMMY: Huh. The great big dinosaur has vanished. Go figure.
The great big dinosaur tries to chomp TOMMY.
TOMMY: (cont) I know! I'll lock myself in my open-top jeep! That'll fool 'em.
Unsurprisingly, the dinosaur is not fooled.
TOMMY: (cont) Whoops. Well, a high-speed chase is always good too.
In the hole in the spooky woods...
KIRA: La, la, la...
ETHAN bops.
CONNER: I can patronize you because you're just a girl. Nyah!
KIRA: Yeah? Well, I can be really snippy. So there.
CONNER: Hey, a giant dinosaur head! Let's touch it.
A door opens, letting them into the STRANGE LAB.
KIRA: Think they'll remember I'm a singer? Better make a music reference, just in case.
ETHAN: Yeah, I'll make a geek reference. Conner, you should remind us you're a jock.
CONNER: What? I got distracted by the shiny things.
KIRA: Ooh, shiny things!
Each Ranger takes a shiny Gem. Surprisingly, the colors match their clothes.
CONNER: I wonder if they're prehistoric.
KIRA: Ok, we've got the mysterious Gems. Let's go before Daddy Bear comes home.
ETHAN: Wait...jock!
CONNER: Geek!
ETHAN: Ok, we're good.
KIRA: Great. Let's *go*.
On the road...
TOMMY drives under a bridge. The dinosaur lays its' head open and collapses. TOMMY looks thoughtfully into the middle distance.
In the SPOOKY LAB, not to be confused with the STRANGE LAB...
MESOGOG, EVEN THOUGH WE DON'T KNOW HIS NAME YET: Huh. The Gems are moving. Let's send some ineffectual MINIONS.
In the woods...
ETHAN: Hey, we're out of the caves! Now we're just lost in the woods!
SCARY MINIONS show up.
CONNER: Don't...move.
KIRK: Idiot. Run!
They run.
KIRA falls twice. The second time she screams a super-sonic scream, knocking the MINIONS on their collective asses.
KIRA: Oh. My Gem seems to be glowing. How strange. Well, I'll just fight off the thingummies with my suddenly acquired martial arts skills.
ETHAN: My Gem's glowing too, and I have invulnerability and super-strength! Neat. What about you, Conner?
CONNER: Ithinkitmightbesuperspeedbecauseyou'reallmovingveryslowlyorelseI'mmovingreallyfastsoit'sprobablysuperspeed!
SCARY MINIONS are defeated. The teens regroup.
KIRA: Well, that was weird.
TOMMY: Hey! Anyone injured? No lawsuits pending? Good, good. Lets go back.
KIRA: Shouldnt we tell him?
ETHAN: Dude, Im a geek. You wanna get dissected?
TOMMY: Something wrong?
CONNER: No, no, were good.
Later, at school...
KIRA: I dont wanna have super powers. One of you can have them.
KIRA gives her Gem to Conner.
ETHAN: Hey!
KIRA gives her Gem to Ethan.
Nearby, CASSIDY and DEVIN see them.
CASSIDY: Hey! Kids talking to each other! At school! Geeks and jocks arent allowed to mingle with singers!
DEVIN: Uh...
KIRA walks away from CONNER and ETHAN.
CASSIDY: Get your camera, moron! Come on!
WIND blows.
KIRA: Uh-oh...why did I just say uh-oh?
MINIONS appear and attack KIRA. She carefully drops her bag but they grab her before she can fight them.
CONNER: Kira!
CONNER and ETHAN dash towards her but shes vanished with the MINIONS before they reach her.
CONNER: (cont) Damn! If only wed run faster!
ETHAN: Uhyeah. Faster, thats it.
CONNER: Well, lets go bug Tommy about it.
ETHAN: Sure, but next time Im driving.
CONNER drives very fast and recklessly to TOMMYs house, which is way out in the middle of the woods.
CONNER: Ok, knock, then immediately knock again so he wont have time to answer even if hes home.
ETHAN: Youre the boss! Not quite sure why youre the boss
They discover TOMMYs door is unlocked.
CONNER: Huh. Thats weird.
ETHAN: Not really. Were the only living people for, like, miles.
CONNER: Geek.
ETHAN: Jock.
CONNER: Hey, a mini dinosaur head!
ETHAN: Dude, havent you learned your lesson?
CONNER: Science teacher, not
CONNER touches the dinosaur. A secret door opens.
CONNER: (cont) Batman. Umwhat was I saying?
They go down and discover themselves in the STRANGE LAB.
ETHAN: Freaking?
CONNER: Freaking.
TOMMY: Boo!
ETHAN: Ack! Extra credit!
IN the SPOOKY LAB
KIRA lies asleep-or-unconscious. MESOGOG, EVEN THOUGH WE DONT KNOW HIS NAME YET, prowls around behind her.

So should I continue?
