🥈💿🤍🐯🤍💿🥈
Miu was taken into a place Ziggy called “The Garage”, the Attack Bot (identical to the Banki she had been fighting not even thirty minutes ago in Japan) having gotten away again.
<So, this is Miu, she’s also a Go-Onger, as you probably guessed, she’s super cool guys, she’ll totally be able to keep up with you, fearless leader!>
Miu blew up at her bangs, irritated. Why her, of all people? Why again?
<Woah so this is me in another universe?> The Silver of the RPM Power Rangers rushed up to her, inspecting her with wide eyes. <I’m so pretty!>
<It’s not quite the you from another universe. She simply takes the same space in the space-time continuity of parallel universes. Hello, Go-OnSilver, I am Dr K and I would like your help, if you can give it, with this instrument. Joe took the translator with him, but we don’t seem to need it with you.>
Miu nodded. <I will help where I can.>

Japan was awesome. Not that Corinth wasn’t, of course, but Japan was SO COOL. The Go-Ongers, who were all calling Joe “Hanto”, took them back to their RV. His alternate self, Hiroto, seemed to be kind of annoyed with him? That wasn’t fun, but Gem wasn’t too concerned, since he’d come around to liking him. If Dr K could, then anyone could, after all!
<Thanks for the food!> He told Renn, as they had all introduced themselves earlier. Eggs! He loved eggs! He liked exploding them in the microwave, but that had gotten him in trouble, so he didn’t do that anymore.
>Just so you guys know, I am not taking him with me.< Joe’s translator had been taken out, since now he had a HOLOGRAM FRIEND, so Gem wasn’t sure what was being said anymore. Gem kinda wished that he had a hologram friend in Corinth, that’d be cool! They’d totally help blow up Grinders!
>Alright, I can sleep with Sosuke then, unless Hant, you wanted to share with Gunpei and give Gem your bed?<
Whatever Renn said, it made Joe shake his head and Gunpei pout.
>Renn, I could take you home though so there’s enough beds.<
>No, I can’t let you do that, Hiroto! I’m needed here for breakfast.<
>Dad wants to take Mom home!< Sosuke snickered.
Hiroto was definitely scowling, which wasn’t good!
<What’s the matter?> Gem interrupted.
A tiger hologram came out of his morpher, same as Gemma’s! Must have to do with that space-time continuity thing Dr K was talking about! She was so smart.
<They’re trying to find a place for you to sleep, Gem-kun.>
<Oh, I can sleep outside, that’s fine!> He cheerfully went back to his eggs, missing the disappointed look that Renn gave Hiroto.
>It’s settled, I’ll sleep with Sosuke, it’ll be fine for one night.<

<As you can see, I was working on this device to hopefully send Go-OnGreen back and for us to receive Operator Series Green back—>
<Aw, Doc, you do care!>
<Operator Series Green, I hope you’re aware that the only reason I wanted you back was because while Go-OnGreen had perfectly capable abilities, he was still not a Power Ranger and thus not fit for your jobs of defending the last city on Earth.>
Miu tuned out the rest of the argument, finding that for some reason all of the designs and information on the computer was in Japanese, which made it easier for her to change a few things that should help the Power Rangers. They certainly did have other powers, which Miu thanked the universe that the Go-Ongers did not. Although it’d be cool if Saki had an energy blast like that…
It took a few hours for Dr K to send her out, warning her about training in the morning.
<Miu! Do you want to draw pictures with me and Summer and Flynn? We wanna give them to you to give to Joe!>
<He was a cute kid, he did his nails with me.> Summer said, her picture quite good.
<Aye, Joe was a good lad, he liked my smoothies, I’ll give him the recipe for some of my favorites, although it’ll be in English.>
Miu couldn’t understand the English from Flynn, but she nodded all the same, watching as Gemma drew pictures of the Power Rangers and Hant, although she wrote “Joe” over his name. It took a few minutes of puzzling it out before Miu realized why that would happen. Hant would have introduced himself in the Japanese way, and they heard “Jou” as “Joe”!
She accepted a piece of paper from Gemma, figuring she could write out a training regimen for Ziggy, writing it in the style of Birca, since she thought he might like it better that way.
As she wrote it out, she hoped that it wouldn’t take too long for her to get back to her universe.
🥇📀💛💥💛📀🥇
It was a little different sleeping in an RV, but it was cool too! Renn was staying in Sosuke’s bed so that Gem could use his. He was sleeping in pajamas that were red, which felt odd, cause he was gold, but Sosuke was the only one that was about his size. Other than that, it was fun, cause it felt like what he imagined what a sleepover felt like. Too bad Gemma wasn’t here to enjoy it as well. He sent her a good night through his thoughts before falling asleep.
When he woke up at training time, he found that everyone else was still asleep, so he got up to take a run around the camping grounds, doing his very best to be quiet. He left a note, a drawing of him running with whoosh sounds (to make up for no explosions), and left.
<Hiroto! Hi!> He called as saw his fellow Gold also running, easily catching up, even though Hiroto kept speeding away from him.
<...you’re fast.> Hiroto said once they had gone around the whole camp three times, which meant they had run six miles total.
<And strong! Wanna spar? Scott always makes us spar as part of training, and so does Dr K! Ziggy always complains but he’s getting better!>
Hiroto threw a punch suddenly, which Gem easily blocked. He found that Hiroto was a good sparring partner, as fast as Scott or Summer and with as much strength as Dillon. By the time the two of them called a truce, they were sweaty and Hiroto was looking much nicer than before, although he still wouldn’t really talk as they walked back to Ginjiro, which was an AWESOME name for an RV.
>Hiroto! There you are! Oh, with Gem, thank goodness, I figured he had gone running from his note but still couldn’t help but worry…< Renn came out of Ginjiro, holding a table.
>We’re fine, here, let me help.<
Hiroto and Gem helped set up for breakfast, then Renn sent them to the campground showers, where they both efficiently showered and came back, just in time for breakfast.
>Do you think the Banki will show up today?< Joe asked, eating with more gusto than he had in Corinth.
>We gotta get Miu back, so I hope so!< Saki said.
<Gem, we have things to give Ziggy when you go back, if you wouldn’t mind?> Renn said, handing a few small pieces of paper to Gem.
<Okay!> Gem agreed, slipping the papers into his pocket. He was going to have to draw something for Joe once he finished breakfast, and maybe something for all the Go-Ongers, but Joe was special cause he came to the Power Rangers.
As he was finishing up his drawing of Joe, an explosion came out of an alley or something a bit away. The Go-Ongers quickly drove there, and Gem left his picture on the RV table as they piled out.

The pool game that Summer had set up after their training was interrupted by Dr K’s announcement of Grinders, Miu going in Flynn’s car despite wanting to be on Summer’s motorcycle.
<Rangers, you’re finally here.> This was some woman all in leather, as opposed to Kegalesia’s pollution theme. <Finally, my Attack Bot will finish off this city!>
<I don’t think so, Tenaya!> Scott said.
They all henshined, causing the woman to realize something was off.
<Two Silvers? Did Gold finally tarnish?>
<Miu, you attack the Bot, and ONLY Miu. Gemma, you help me, okay?>
<Roger that, Scott!>
Miu did as told, finding that the attack moves were the same as they were in Japan, and aimed for the top half of the hourglass.
🥇📀💛💥💛📀🥇
This was the most awesome fight that Gem had EVER done, and was DEFINITELY going to be part of his Awesome Diary, because while Gem understood that a battle plan was good and necessary and all that, the Go-Ongers let him explode the grunts all he wanted!
<Gem, you attack the Banki!> Hiroto barked. >Everyone else, the Ugatz!<
>Why are there two Golds?? When did this happen?< Some pretty woman in a gear costume asked something that Gem couldn’t worry about.
Gem made his gun and shot the Banki right in the hourglass, sand getting everywhere as he went through time and space, which was just as awesome as the first time.

“Miu? Miu!!”
“Ani!”
Saki tackled her into a hug before she could get to her brother, which would have knocked her breathless if she wasn’t any less strong. As it was, it still made her feel off-kilter.
“Guys, it’s getting big!” Hant warned.
One giant robo fight later, the Hourglass Banki was gone for good.
“You’re okay, Miu?” Hiroto asked once they were all unhenshined and back in Ginjiro.
“Yes, Ani, I’m fine! Hant, here, from the Power Rangers.”
Hant accepted the pictures, smiling.
“Thank you!”
🥇📀💛💥💛📀🥇
“I’m back, guys!” Gem said as he crashed into Dillon, who pushed him off.
“Why do you guys keep crashing into me?” Dillon asked.
“You have the most surface area?” Ziggy offered.
“Less talking, more defeating, the download started!” Scott warned.
It was awesome being back in Corinth, using their Zords to defeat the Attack Bot, just like they always did, since they were the Power Rangers!
When he got back to the Garage, Dr K and Gemma both hugged him, which was fantastic!
He also got to give Ziggy his pictures from the Go-Ongers, which made Ziggy smile, and making people smile was always THE BEST!!
What a cool week it had been!
