The sun was beginning to rise over San Angeles and the early morning rays reflected off the sea. Linking the city of San Angeles to the nearby Summer Cove was a suspension bridge with reddish brown support beams. The bridge provided a vital link between the two cities. Traffic was light on the bridge that morning but if anyone had looked up, they would've seen two figures perched on top of a support tower. One of them was a man with black hair parted down the middle. He had some facial hair on his chin and wore a loose fitting pair of trousers and a metallic silver jacket. The man was Merrick, also known as the Lunar Wolf Ranger, "The power is strong here old friend", he said.

The other figures stood beside him the reformed Zen Aku now female human,

"So the rumours are true, the Org Egg is in this city". Zen stated

"It would appear so", Merrick sighed, "I thought the peace was too good to last".

"You should contact the others", Zen stated firmly.

"No", Merrick responded, "Alyssa is meeting with Kiryu force in the city for support. I will go on alone and try and pinpoint the exact location of the Egg".

"I thought you were passed the lone wolf stage of your life", Zen chuckled.

Merrick gave her a small smile, "I'm still a wolf at heart old friend", the Lunar Wolf looked around and suddenly realised how high up he was, "now this lone wolf could use a hand getting down". Zen shook her head and interlinked her arm with his and the duo teleported away from the bridge in a cloud of dark smoke.

If they had looked down, they would've seen a yellow jeep crossing the bridge and entering San Angeles. At the wheel was General Taylor Earnhardt, she was exhausted after sailing all the way back from Skull Island. The Gotengo had docked in San Angeles for a few days to gather supplies before their operation of moving Kong, Taylor had gotten a call from Alyssa about a possible Org egg and Lothor.

Taylor stretched across to the empty passenger seat and grabbed her Growl Phone. Flipping it open she immediately got hold of the correct person, "Alyssa it's me, I'm entering San Angeles".

"What the hell did you do Taylor?" Alyssa began, "I had Cole call me last night asking where you were".

"Did you tell him?" came the terse response.

"Of course I didn't", Alyssa snorted, "please tell me you didn't go AWOL to help me out".

Taylor sighed, "No", she yawned loudly, "we can talk about this later, right now I need a shower and a change of clothes. Then we can go and meet our new ranger friends".

"Fine", Alyssa said bluntly, "but we're going to talk about this later", with that, she terminated the call. Taylor snapped her phone shut and tossed it angrily onto the passenger seat. Keeping one hand on the wheel, she ran her other hand through her blonde hair in frustration. She wished that the Orgs could just stay dead, if they had then they wouldn't have this problem. They would also be fine if their relationship with their supposed team leader wasn't so strained. Realising her difficulties with Cole would have to be put aside for now, she continued into the city to try and find

Alyssa's hotel.

Later that afternoon the Kiryu Force had gathered in the court yard. The grass was beginning to grow back.

Bulk kept checking his cell phone, the visitors should be here any minute. To kill some time he looked around and observed the rangers. Skull was doing a few light stretches, Charlie and Sasha were having a light sparring session. He frowned slightly as Sasha flipped Charlie onto her back and to her surprise, rolled her into an arm bar.

"When's Alyssa supposed to be coming?" Sasha asked as she helped Charlie up off the ground.

"Go time" Bulk said, he looked over at the entrance and saw Alyssa walking towards them. With them was a tall blonde woman dressed in a pair of black pants tucked into some calf length boots. She also wore a yellow blouse that was open slightly, revealing a white top underneath. Her hair was slightly damp, indicating that she had only just washed it.
