[color=#BA55D3]Interacting w/:[/color] Sam and Lee | [@King Kindred] and [@Crimson Flame][/center]
Charlie was too busy walking the perimeter of the clothing racks to notice that Andre's younger brother Sam and his friend Lee were in the store. By the time he attempted to call her name, there was loud and sudden [i]boom[/i] that erupted outside, immediately prompting her to snap her head around towards the front of the store.

People were running frantically out of the store (some [i]with[/i] clothes in their hands) and others that were running away from something that was outside in the open area. Under any other circumstances, this would have been a foolish endeavor, but with Charlie's bond with the purple Power Crystal once again, a renewed confidence was coursing through her veins that motivated her to defend Angel Grove once again.

Glass shattered at the front of the store behind the cash register area causing Charlie to shield her eyes but also flip forward out of the store and landing on the concrete with an [i]mmph[/i]. When she opened her hazel eyes, there was a group of silver-colored warriors holding lances with a double pointed end standing over her.

[color=#BA55D3]"Excuse me. One sec..."[/color] Charlie said dryly, rolling out of the way of the foot soldiers before tumbling to her feet. Finding an alley in between the stores where she knew her identity could be hidden, Charlie lifted her left wrist that had her Morpher wrapped around it and tapped the screen to activate it.

[b][color=#BA55D3]"Purple Ranger, Dino Power!"[/color][/b] she shouted, pressing her palm on the screen as a bright purple light engulfed her body. When it settled down, she was now donning the full suit of the Purple Dino Ranger, feeling even more empowered than before.

Reaching for the Dino Blaster in its holster, Charlie emerged from the alley firing off purple blasts from the weapon causing some of the creature to retreat away into a cluster.

[color=#BA55D3]"See? I told you I wouldn't be gone too long,"[/color] she mused, smirking under her helmet. [color=#BA55D3]"I'd ask you to nicely leave, but it doesn't seem like you guys are inclined to listen."[/color]

[i]"Is that...?"[/i]

[i]"It's the Purple Ranger!"[/i]

[i]"The Power Rangers are back!"[/i]

Not quite. At least Charlie didn't think so. Not yet anyway. The crowd of people inquiring about the return of Earth's saviors stood on the opposite side of the path while the Purple Ranger went to work.

Replacing the Dino Blaster with the Saber, Charlie walked forward cautiously as more civilians continued to run in the opposite direction (as they should). But when she glanced to the left at the store that she just rolled out of, she noticed a pretty boy with a mannequin arm in his hand (a weapon was a weapon, right?) and another taller guy who was with him. They looked like an odd pairing of friends, but somehow they made it work.

[color=#BA55D3]"You two should get out of here while you can,"[/color] Charlie warned, lowering her stance as the foot soldiers readied themselves. 

Flipping forward she slashed one across the chest causing it to burst into silver fragments. This left her guard slightly open as another on slammed their weapon down towards her. Fortunately, Charlie was able to dodge it, quickly reaching for the Blaster and shooting it twice in the chest, sending more broken fragments flying back towards Lee and Sam inside of the store behind the broken glass. She couldn't take them all at once, though, as one of the soldiers grabbed her from behind and tossed her over its shoulder and into some mall signage.

[color=#BA55D3]"Mmph..."[/color] Charlie grunted, rolling over to her tummy. [color=#BA55D3]"Okay... still hurts..."[/color]

The foot soldiers were now distracted by Sam and Lee now, now coming towards them since they were in their crosshairs.

[color=#BA55D3]"Get out of here!"[/color] Charlie shouted, standing up on her feet now and running to chase after the warriors as they closed in on Sam and Lee.
