A/N:Here I am once again starting off another story, without finishing off the others. But this has been nagging at me for the last two weeks, so I really needed to get it started. To the readers of my other stories, I am soory about the few updates, but I promise you all that there will be some soon-so don't worry to much.

Now then let's get started!

Disclaimer: I don't own power rangers, but I own this plot, so if you want me to clarify something then you'll have to review after you have read this chapter.

Summary: After helping T.J. save Tommy and Kat, Cassie declined the offer of becoming a power ranger. Now a year later, a new team of rangers arrives in Angel Grove. What will happen when they meet.

Pairing: Andros/Cassie-other pairings may occur later on in the story.

Angel Grove:

Cassie Chan sat on a stool in the youth center, lost in thought. It was a year ago today that the young Asian girl turned down the opportunity of a lifetime-a chance to be the new pink turbo power ranger. 'And why?' she asked herself for the umthinth time that day. ' Because I was to busy chasing down my parents dream, to even consider what I really wanted.' she thought bitterly, whilst sipping her milkshake.

When she met T.J. on the bus a year ago, she had told him that she was going into the music business-what she neglected to tell him of course, was that her parents had threatened to disown her if she didn't do it. But she failed her parents dream when she realized that she wanted more from life and decided to go for it. Because of her decision, her parents hadn't got in touch with her in eight months. It saddened Cassie when she realized this, but then she reasoned with herself that they had done this all her life.

"Four milkshakes please Ernie." a man said, breaking Cassie from her thoughts. She turned her head slightly to take a look at the man; he was dark skinned, with little hair on his head and he was wearing a navy blue t-shirt. Ernie came to the counter with four milkshakes on a tray. "There you go T.J.-on the house for you and your friends, as thanks for the other day." he said in a happy tone.

Cassie nearly choked on her milkshake as she heard the name 'T.J.' but she managed to keep it together-or so she thought. Both men turned to face her and T.J. nearly did a double take when he saw her. "Cassie, is it really you?" he asked in a shocked tone.

The young teenager looked up and smiled at him. "Of course Teej. Unless there's another one of me around." she said jokingly, looking around. They both started laughing, as Cassie jumped up and gave him a hug. After a few moments T.J. pulled back and latched onto the girls hand, dragging her over to a table where three youths sat. There were two boys and one girl. The first boy intrigued Cassie, as he had long dark hair, with blonde streaks running through it and wore a red shirt. His face showed his youth but his eyes showed wisdom far beyond his years. Moving along to the second boy Cassie noticed that he also had long dark hair but he wore a green vest. His face showed amusement at the sight before him. Finally Cassie looked at the girl. She had shoulder length brown hair and was wearing a white t-shirt under a yellow jacket. She looked curiously at them both.

Cassie pulled her hand back and looked around awkwardly. T.J. laughed at Cassie's apparent uneasiness around his friends and grabbed her hand, looking into her eyes. "Hey don't worry, they're just like me." he said in a non-too-subtle way, flashing her a cheeky grin.

Cassie laughed as they continued to walk over to the table. "I'll get back to you on whether thats a good thing or a bad one." she said in a teasing tone.

"Hey." he said in a mock-hurt tone as they approached the table. Turing his attention the the three youths at the table, he smiled brightly at them. "Hey guys, this is an old friend of mine called Cassie. Cassie these are my friends, Andros, Carlos and Ashley." he said pointing at each one in turn.

"Nice to meet you all." Cassie said as she sat down at the table. They all murmured in agreement before Andros turned to T.J. "Hey Teej, wheres our drinks?" he asked in a curious tone, whilst looking around.

The man stood, confused for a moment, before bringing up the palm of his hand against his head. "Man, I totally forgot cos I aint seen Cassie in so long and-i'll just go get them now." he mumbled after seeing the glares he was getting from his friends.

Ashley turned to face Cassie and smiled. "So T.J. tells us you want to be a singer." she said in a casual tone, leaning back slightly on her chair.

Cassie fidgeted around nervously, not really sure what to say. Looking up she felt her new found friends eyes upon her and she gave a small smile. "Yeah, I guess. But I gave up singing a while ago now-decided that I was destined for something else." she said in a slightly wistful tone.

T.J. came back with the drinks and the group chatted amittably for a while until Carlos asked their new friend to sing a song. Cassie frowned slightly but agreed to sing a song anyway. "This is a song that I wrote a little while ago now-before I gave up singing. It's called we're history." she said before clearing her throat.

"Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh,

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh,

We're history.

Time keeps passing by,

For you and me.

I think it's over now,

Don't you agree?

I keep on telling you,

That this is all wrong.

But you don't listen,

So i'm singing this song.

The fun we shared,

Has gone somewhere.

And I don't think it'll come back soon.

The spark we made,

Has lost it's shade.

So I gotta say goodbye to you and me,

My baby.

It's over now,

Why can't you see?

That what we had,

It's history.

The hurt and pain you caused,

Is over now for sure.

So don't come back for more,

Cos I won't open up the door.

It's over now,

Why can't you see-you and me

We're history.

History."

A soft round of applause alerted Cassie to everyones presense and she opened to eyes to see that a crowd had gathered around her. "Wow Cass, if your that talented at singing why'd ya give it up?" T.J. asked. Cassie thanked the crowd as they began dispersing before turning round to answer her friend.

"I came back to Angel Grove to rectify a mistake I made a while ago. I know that i'm a talented singer, but there are more important things. I know that now." she said in a serious tone. "Look it was nice meeting you guys but i've gotta go. C'ya later." she said standing up and walking away from the group.

The group watched her disappear out of the youth center, before turning to look at each other. "So that's the girl who helped you save the red and pink turbo rangers-then declined the offer of becoming a power ranger." Carlos said, looking at his friend amazed.

"Yep, amazing aint it." T.J. said beaming as he stood up. "Come on you guys, we'd better get back to the Megaship." he sighed deeply as Ashley and Carlos stood up. Andros however was lost in his thoughts. "Andros!" T.J. said as he waved a hand in front of the red astro ranger.

"Her voice was-is ama-" Andros stopped and blinked, before looking around and blushing. His friends all smirked knowingly.

"Andros has got a crush." Ashley said in a sing-song voice as T.J. and Carlos burst out laughing.

Andros stood up and looked at Ashley annoyed. "I do not have a crush." he protested vehemently as they left the youth center. Suddenly he stopped and looked at the others in confusion. "Wait-what is a crush?" he asked confused.

T.J. walked up to Andros and wrapped an arm around his shoulders. "Oh wouldn't you like to know." he said before chuckling at his friend's face.

The four teens continued to walk on, unable to foresee the danger that was approaching them and Cassie in the near future.
