Escaping Fame (Power Rangers in Space)

Summary: The Earth part of the team tries to explain why they're making a surprise visit to the Megaship. (Destruction... and After storyline)


Disclaimer: None of the characters belong to me, but instead to Saban. This takes place during "Countdown to Destruction, part 2" (written by Judd Lynn), part of a series detailing the events and aftermath of the two-parter.

This is the twenty-first of the "Destruction... and after" series of stories and was written December 13, 1998.

"What are you doing *here*?" my boyfriend asks, looking bewildered. I don't blame him. We were supposed to be going pretty much home and trying to live our lives normally again, but we ran into... complications.

"Too much publicity," Cassie says from beside me. "The media is camped out on our doorsteps."

"Literally," T.J. adds. "We got local people, state people, national people, and international people hanging around. I guess everybody knows now that the Rangers unmasked themselves, and who we are. I can see why one of the rules was not to reveal our identities - we'd never get any peace otherwise...."

Andros still looks bewildered. I try to explain to him. "Since our world isn't technically advanced compared to the rest of the galaxy, most of the tech we use for our mecha and stuff, and our powers, make us seem like superheroes, instead of yet another defense force for the world."

I don't think I explained that very well.

"Everyone wants a piece of us," Cassie says simply. "We're celebrities now, whether we like it or not."

"I don't think I like it very much," Carlos observes.

"We'll live through it, somehow," T.J. says, as if to cheer us up. Good luck.

"But I think I want to stay up here tonight," Cassie says. "We all do, until we can figure out what to do with all these people."

"And hopefully we'll figure out something soon," I add.

"Hopefully...." Carlos echoes.
