We have to do what now? 1

"Phew," Wesely puffed, wiping the sweat off his forehead. It was June, and really hot.

The team had been training in the Dojo, baking in the heat. All of them were panting and sweaty, and not just from the training. They were exhausted from all the summer's heat.

"Rangers," Mentor Ji said as he came in, "are you alright?"

"We're fine," Wesley puffed.

"Just hot," Antonio agreed.

"Come inside," Ji instructed, "you must be cool to preform well."

"Okay," they agreed, filing in.

All seven crashed out on their seats, more hot and sweaty than ever.

"You've been taking a lot," Mentor commented, "are you sure you're okay?"

"It's just tough," Jayden shrugged, "working in the summer."

"Understood," Mentor nodded, "you shouldn't be going through this kind of treatment."

"We have to…" Kevin heaved, "…to protect people."

"You can't if your miserable," Mentor decided, "go to you rooms while I figure out something for you."

"But what about evil?" Mia demanded, "we won't be there to protect…"

"I will figure something out," he assured, "now, go on."

Though they looked reluctant and relieved, they went to their rooms. Inside, they sat in front of their fans and sighed in contentment. Meanwhile, Mentor was flipping through the phone book.

"What are you doing?" Antonio asked, capturing Mentor's attention.

"Why are you out of your room?" was his response.

"I am a traveling fisherman," his student pointed out, "you learn to live with humid summers and bitter winters."

"Well, I'm looking for summer jobs for you and the other rangers," Mentor answered.

"What?" Antonio cried, "Ji, we're rangers. Not normal teenagers who get summer jobs."

"You are teenagers, though," Ji pointed out, "and I will have only the best for my students. Now, go into your room."

"But…" Antonio protested.

But Mentor pointed to his room door with his stick, so he scurried in. Sighing, the adult picked up the handset.

"Yes?" he said to the lady on the other end, "can I intrest you in a hard working teenage boy?"
