The Red that never was || Ryouga
The loud horn of a car was the first thing Mikoto noticed as he slowly woke up, finding himself laying on his back in some alley. The next thing he noticed was the dull ache in the back of his head which made him groan as he slowly sat up and looked around in confusion. He didn't remember passing out. The last thing he did remember was him chasing after some weird looking monster. That thing had disappeared in some grey curtain-like thing that had appeared out of nowhere. Before he had time to react that weird curtain had sucked him in, too. He had never experienced something like that. But at least he had managed to put one of the new trackers on the monster before it had disappeared. That way, they could still locate it. Pulling out his phone to check the tracker, the doctor noticed that his phone was acting up and wouldn't let him access anything. Weird. Was that some side-effect from the curtain thing?
Getting to his feet, he exited the alley and found himself across the street of the Dino House. How was that possible? He had been on the other side of town only moments ago. Running a hand through his short hair, Mikoto sighed and shook his head. This was such a weird day. At least he would be able to use some of the tech in the Dino House to locate the wanted monster and maybe figure out what the curtain thing was.
Maybe this day wasn't all that bad because Mikoto found the Dino House empty upon crossing the street and entering. "Hello? Is anyone there? I need to access the computer system to look something up." This was so stupid to ask for permission to use their own tech. This was still the Abaranger base even if it was a restaurant most of the time.
