'Wow...this place is incredible' Cole was saying as the Red Rangers looked around Tommy's recently purchased mansion; after the battle with Psycho Red, the de facto leader of the group had decided to reward his fellow rangers and allow them to enjoy his home.
'It ought to be for the price!' Tommy laughed, but it was quite a home; countless bedrooms, plasma screens in every room, home cinema, indoor pool...you name it, Tommy most probably had it all under this roof.
'So why are we here Tommy? Or did you just wanna show off?' Jason smirked
'As much as that may seem the case Jason,' Tommy laughed 'I actually wanted to reward you guys...you all put yourselves at great risk in that battle, and only as a team could we overcome Psycho Red. You're all a credit to the ranger name' A few moments passed, the rangers taking in the moment and absorbing Tommy's words; their pride was evident through the smiles on their faces
'Well come on then! Let's enjoy rich boy's new pad while we can!' Jason shouted, his cheers followed by that of the other Reds as they celebrated their success.
Epilogue
The familiar clank of metal reverberated around the training dojo as two swords clashed ferociously. The wielders however were not enemies, they were friends...siblings even; this was training
'You are the latest to take up the tradition,' a voice was saying as the pair trained. 'Not only your ancestry line, but also that of the Brotherhood'
The two who were training were only young, barely teens. The one was male, his brown hair sweeping across his forehead and his eyes of similar colour completely focused on the fight. His face was fresh and full of life, the enjoyment of a young child clear in his eyes. The other was female, her eyes a pale blue as if the colour was clouded by a smokescreen...a self employed smoke screen, as a facade as to give nothing away in the fight with the male. The icy glaze of her eyes was mirrored by her face, pale like snow and unwavering as she met the blade of her opponent.
'The path of the Red Samurai is in your blood,' the voice continued 'but so is the path of the Red Ranger'
The swords clash again.
'You will be expected to protect the people...and the honour of both the Brotherhood and your ancestors'
And again.
'Is that clear?'
Both warriors bowed to each other, then to the one who was speaking
'Yes Mentor Ji!' they replied in unison.
