Disclaimer: Ranger Concept is Haim Sabans. Sailor Moon Concept and Characters belong to Naoko Takeuchi. This is the 2nd part of Guardian Down. The Majority of the Characters belong to us and permission of one if not both of us is required before others use them. The Story starts out immediately after Guardian Down. For The Record I have no idea what a Valv-Pak actually looks like. I came across it in a series of books I read once by W.E.B. Griffin and the books took place during WWII but I dont think all the characters actually existed.
The Rangers were seated in the Snack Bar in their Utilities and they were joined by an eighteen year old appearing Human Girl named Sereia.
"OK here is the situation as to Why Im here," Sereia started to say. "Im from the Planet Minosia about 4000 light years from here. There I lead a team of Minosian Guardians. Unfortunately Three years ago our old Enemy the Evil Lady Morgana of Negaria escaped. She has a very bad team of individuals known as the Negarian Enforcers. Each of the Minosian Guardians has a corresponding Enforcer. The guardians are similar to Powereons or even Rangers. Recently Morgana stripped most of team except my husband Rayno and myself of our life force encasing it in crystal like orbs. Rayno used what he could to detect energy readings around here. Unfortunately Morgana sent her worst footsoldiers to try to stop me. You basically know the rest.
"Sereia, according to your report when Morgana escaped is probably around the same time that Mechinack started attacking here," Prof. Damon put in, recalling the events on Capsilon during that time.
"Could be Professor," Sereia giggled. She was wearing a tight fitting white body suit with red flame motives on the legs and arms. Where her tiara used to be was replaced by a high-tech lens which covered Sereia's eyes. She wore black leather gloves as well as metallic hand and forearm protectors, plus matching shinguards. Instead of high heels, Sereia wore white knee length astronomic combat boots. A crystal two-handed single bladed sword with a Crescent Moon at the intersection of the blade and a White Handle hung from her belt. "Sereia, One thing you can guarantee is this the Zordonian Rangers are with you as long as needed," Michelle thought. "Whether its here on Capsilon IX or on your world."
"Thanks Michelle, Rayno and I will need all the help we can get," Sereia expected the pledge, from the leader of the Zordonian Rangers.
"Michelle, news flash, we are in the middle of a war here on Capsilon IX. That is why I came here from Triforia after going there from Diatles where my family lives," Andrea said.
"Hate to said it but she has a point," Sarah said as she stood there in the Grayish White Dress that she had been wearing that day.
The others also agreed.
"Not to worry Rangers for I have a plan," Prof. Damon cut in.
"What is up your sleeve?" Amelia asked.
"That Amelia is something which will become clear in time," Prof. Damon answered, suggesting whatever his plan was, it would amaze them.
"OK Rangers be ready to leave tomorrow for Minosia. Pack enough Stuff in as small a space as possible for a week. In Translation Andrea you dont need to bring as much stuff as you brought from Triforia. Probably One Valv-Pak will be sufficient," Michelle said.
"Ill do my best. As it is it was a bit of a squeeze getting my luggage into my room at Amelias," Andrea said.
"You could have placed some in your quarters here," Aphrealle pointed out.
"I did. I placed stuff I wasnt likely to need very often in my quarters here. Basically my Quarters here are a storage room," Andrea said.
"Sarah, it will be necessary for you to detour tomorrow to Phaedos when the others leave for Minosia. From listening to Sereias briefing you will probably be relying almost exclusively on third morph," Prof. Damon surmised and hinted she wouldn't be of much use, if the problem wasn't rectified.
"One thing I know I have to do is get Uniforms taken care of," she announced her plans.
"Ill help you with that," Alpha said.
A couple hours later Michelle helped Sarah load her uniforms into the Trunk of the Red Warrior. They then headed for Sarahs house in Settlement 14.
"I hope things go smoothly. How come everyone doesnt simply live at the Bunker?" Sarah asked.
"WE didnt feel it was needed. Also most of us have family here on the planet and we would miss our family if we lived at the Bunker all the time. Only Mitsu lives there full time. Andrea could but Amelias family offered her a spare room at their house," Michelle responded.
Mrs. Rimyard was not amused when the girls pulled in.
"I was wondering where you were hiding," Mrs. Rimyard said a stern look appearing in your eyes.
"It was sort of a critical situation that required some quick work," she answered, trying to mollify her mom.
"Meaning what?" Mrs. Rimyard didn't seem satisfied with her daughter's response.
"I received a very special invitation which I took the time to accept," Sarah said.
"What kind of invitation?" Mrs. Rimyard queried a look of concern going through her eyes.
"An invitation to join my battalion," Michelle responded indicating the patch and tab on her right shoulder.
"56th Battalion GSA, Ranger," Mrs. Rimyard read off the Patch and tab. "What kind of Ranger are you?"
"The best kind," she said. Then she took a deep breath, knowing the revelation would shock her mother. "A Power Ranger."
Mrs. Rimyards mouth dropped a few inches on that one.
"I guess you will be augmenting your wardrobe with outfits like your friend is wearing," Mrs. Rimyard said.
"They are in the trunk of my car," Michelle chose to answer the query. "A nice sized stack of boxes."
"Does GSA know you are wearing Uniforms that say GSA on them?" Mrs. Rimyard concerned that they could be in trouble for posing as false members.
"WE get our uniforms through GSA," Michelle reassured her.
Mrs. Rimyard took the time to help unload Michelles trunk by carrying the boxes containing Sarahs Dress Uniform down to Sarahs room.
"It is so cool. Me a Power Ranger. Lets face it things are moving kind of fast. After all in only a few hours I became a ranger, fought the Xeno Empire for the First time and tomorrow I will be leaving to visit another world," Sarah excitedly recapped the events of the day.
"You hope at least. Your father and I were a little concerned when you suddenly disappeared from here. You better hope we let you make this journey," Mrs. Rimyard said.
"Lets face it mom if time wasnt critical I would have waited until tomorrow to take the professor and Ms. Warren up on their offer," she stressed the importance of the situation. Sarah Hoped her mother understood and realized that other people were relying on her.
"The lady from the school district," Mrs. Rimyard said.
"Its sort of a covername. Her real name is Aphrealle. April Warren though is the name she went by on Earth for a period of time right up until roughly sixteen years ago. These days she uses it when she goes out amongst the denizens," Michelle said.
"So what does she have to do with the Rangers?" Mrs. Rimyard confusion showed on her face.
"She provided the special crystals we use for our powers. She indirectly provided the original seven and directly the last five. Sarahs is one she directly provided," Michelle said.
"What about yours?" Mrs. Rimyard asked.
"Mine was one she indirectly provided by leaving it in a mine under this settlement. I wasnt part of the expedition that found the original crystals but Amelia Cummings, Bobby Zhang, and Marsha White were," Michelle said.
"Interesting," Mrs. Rimyard said. "What will the planetary trip tomorrow involve?"
"We are going to fight on another planet for a little bit and are leaving tomorrow. We arranged for an IGPF Sergeant who is retired from our battalion to take us in his old zord to the planet," Michelle said.
"Only I have to detour before I head for the Planet," Sarah said. "While Im a power ranger now I only have 1 component of my powers. For this battle I will need the other component."
Meanwhile Amelia and Andrea were sitting around the dinner table at Amelias house having a late dinner.
"The rangers and I have to go out of town tomorrow for a period of time," Amelia said.
"What for?" Patricia asked.
"We have to assist another planet with a few things. Their defenders are a little short handed," Amelia informed her family.
"I hope you all will be careful," Dr. Cummings said.
"Trust me we will," Amelia said. "Besides Aphrealle will be with us."
"Thats good to know," Mr. Cummings said. "Who will handle things here."
"Prof. Damon is being real tight lipped about it. I think he is planning on surprising us before we leave tomorrow with the info," Amelia said.
The two girls then headed upstairs to pack their things.
"I hope the ship has laundry services," Andrea face had a odd expression, she commented.
"I was only aboard Airtron once before and most of it was on the bridge," Amelia informed her housemate.
Meanwhile Next door Michelle, Sereia, and Roxanne were briefing Michelles parents in on the trip.
"Let me get this straight. A Planet is in trouble and your team is going to provide some assistance," Matt said. "How long will you even be gone?"
"I really dont know," Michelle said. "Just so you know our distinguished guest is Sakino Sereia. She came to get the assistance needed."
"Michelle, before you and your team leave tomorrow be sure to swing by the Youth Center," Matt said.
"Dad, relax that is already on the plan," Michelle said.
"First though we have to show Sereia the Colony," Roxanne added to the conversation.
"I really should get back to the Bunker. IT was nice meeting you two. Mr. Connorson, Will we be seeing you at the Youth Center tomorrow?" Sereia asked.
"Tomorrow is my day off. Take the time to show up anyway even though I dont plan on being there. Hopefully Kim will be there," Matt responded.
The next morning since departure wasnt planned until that night Sarah was waiting in her living room for Mitsu and Bobby to arrive since they were going to do some Sparring. At one point Sarah spotted Mitsu walking up the sidewalk and She timed opening the door for right when her companion would be reaching the door.
"Whoa, you are quick," Mitsu said.
"I saw you coming. You want to take a seat," Sarah suggested.
"Sure," Mitsu said plopping down on a couch. Sarah sat next to her.
"So what kind of things interest you?" Mitsu asked.
"Old Movies mainly especially ones that either have jet fighters or delve deeply into Science Fiction. I especially like ones that combine the two," Sarah informed her.
"I enjoy that type of movie myself. FREDA has a real good Movie Archive at the Bunker. I was surprised you recognized the movie I got that one tactic from during the battle with the Quasarfighters," Mitsu said.
"ITs one of my favorite movies. Capt. Hiller though should have skipped the cigars for that one flight with Jeff Goldblums character in my opinion," Sarah said.
"I agree," Mitsu said.
Half an Hour later Bobby showed up in Fatigues. Mitsu and Andrea looked down at the Utilities they were wearing.
"Im sure you two will manage," Bobby said. "So where do you want to Spar?"
"Nice a day as it is what say we spar in the Park," Sarah suggested.
Meanwhile aboard the Venom the Baddies were watching the scene with evil looks on their faces.
"Go ahead Rangers and I will be sure to send a few Super Xenonites to keep you busy," Galactex said.
Fifteen Minutes later the threesome arrived at the Park and Chose a fairly open area.
"SO what do you think morphed or unmorphed?" Sarah popped the options. She felt either would be good. She was clearly open to accommodating her two teammates preference.
At that moment a Platoon of Super Xenonites showed up through a Portal.
"Ill take that as a vote for Morphed," she remarked testily. Clearly unhappy of the interruption. At least she would get more experience battling the foot soldiers, she noted positively.
"Showtime," Bobby Yelled. "Blue Zordonian Power." A whirlpool erupted from the ground and hid Bobby from view. As the water became vapor in the air, he was the Blue Ranger.
"Orange Zordonian Power." Rays of Sun shot through the Wall and shaded her from view. When the heat dispersed Mitsu was the Orange Ranger.
"Platinum Zordonian Power." Lava covered Sarah from view. When it dissolved she was the Platinum Ranger.
The Rangers then began to attack the Super Xenonites. At one point Bobbys Communicator went off.
"Bobby here."
"Bobby, do you three require assistance?" Aphrealle checked to make sure everything was under control.
"Negative, we were going to spar anyway. All these things did was change the opponent," Bobby sounded undaunted by the unscheduled rearrangement.
"Soon as you get done kicking Xenonite Rear swing by the Command Bunker?" the angel requested.
"Not a problem," Bobby responded.
Twenty minutes later Bobby summoned his and Mitsus Jet Cycles and they roared on down the road eventually pulling into the Garage where Sarah jumped off the back of Bobbys cycle.
"Man I could grow to enjoy this," Sarah said as they demorphed. They then walked in and headed for the War Room. Coming out of the Laboratory were Two African American Women one around twenty-six the other maybe a couple years older then the Red Ranger. The older girl was in a Yellow Sun Dress and a White Lab Coat. The younger woman was dressed in a Rainbow Colored Dress with a White and Black Checkerboard style cape. The Two newcomers had followed the three Rangers into the War Room. The War Room was full as the Entire Zordonian Team including Support Crew along with Nine other people a few of which were familiar to the new comers.
"Hail the conquering Heroes," Greg cracked as they entered.
"Ten Hut," Michelle called. Allowing few second for a smile to be registered on her face. After three being acknowledged she became serious.
"OK Professor, what is the Scoop here. My team and I are preparing for Departure yet we dont know who will be handling things in our absence?" Michelle let her concern be known. Her biggest worry was they were leaving the planet unprotected. She hoped Prof. Damon had a solution
"Not to worry Michelle, Everything is under control. A Select group of former Demona Rangers will be handling things," the younger of the two Lab Jockeys said. "We had a small problem since both my sister and Miss Johnson wore Yellow. Miss Johnson though decided to work in the lab," the Lab jockey said indicating her companion.
"Chris, how will we handle things From the news Xenonites are harder to fight then Gearheads or Lizardtrons ever were?" an African American girl who looked like the lab jockey lodged the slight problem.
"Easy Candi, First off my teacher and I did a full upgrade on your powers. The armor that used to with your Eclipsed Mode after our last retuning was moved to your 1st Morph. A New even More Powerful Armor with Features not only of the old armor but also of the old Armatron that Sues Grandfather gave Andrew. What this means is that Your new Eclipsed Armor will be fairly heavy but still flexible. Also we upgraded your weapons by making them more powerful," Christine said. "Tyra will brief you on the Command Structure."
"OK Andrew will be with the Zordonian Rangers. Kim due to a zord conflict will be the Main Commander working from the Bunker. Kelly will be the Field Commander. The Megazord was designed to make use of the Zords available. The Jetzord and Airzord will form the Legs. The Postzord and Commandzord the chest. The Tankzord will split and Form the Arms. The Chopzord will be the Head. The Megazord Cockpit will be in the Commandzord under the head. Kelly if for some reason Glendow recalls you then Kim will use your zord," Tyra said. "Both Christine and I will be on hand here if there is a problem."
"Sarah, you will take the Galactic Cruiser to Phaedos on Autopilot. It was built by my people. It is presently on the Hanger Deck of Airtron with the Jetzords. Luckily a separate launch area exists for it," Andrew instructed in his Flight suit. The other temporarily reactivated Demona Rangers were also in Flight Suits.
"OK Gang, Gather around," Michelle said.
The Zordonian Team in whatever uniform they were wearing gathered together then Alpha Teleported them to the Bridge of the Massive Carrierzord.
"I hope everyone was packed," Michelle said.
"I had my dad drop my stuff off," Sarah said.
"Then its aboard already. Bobby, what about you?" Michelle asked.
"I kind of ran out of time. I was going to pack after we finished sparring so I could change into Utilities. Then our sparring partners changed and I ran out of time," Bobby said.
Sarah took the time to roll her eyes.
"Im sure something will get figured out," Andrew said. "Tell you what Ill teleport you down so you can grab some stuff while Im prepping Airtron for Deepspace Mode."
Bobby teleported down and saw a Suitcase and a trunk all set for him.
"Bobby I took the time to get you packed. How much time do you have?" Mrs. Zhang asked.
"Very little. Were already behind schedule," Bobby said. He then keyed his communicator. "Beam me up Scotty."
A Chuckle was heard as he along with his luggage were teleported away in a stream of blue.
"That didnt take long," Sereia joked. Standing outside her cabin's doorway. It looked like she only finished storing her luggage. She had a casual white dress on, instead of her uniform.
"My mom took the time to pack my things," Bobby said. "They were waiting for me when I got down there."
By this time the Massive Carrierzord instead of looking like an Enterprise Class Aircraft Carrier Looked like a Very Compact ship that was luckily capable to storing ten Fighters or Bombers (After all Sir Lance-A-Lot was based on a Bomber) along with the Galactic Cruiser which it turned out was an almost carbon copy of the Astro Megaship except without the Megazord capabilities. Soon as they were in Orbit Sarah boarded the Cruiser.
"I already have it set up for the Trip to Phaedos. You should be fine since the Cruiser runs itself. The only reason you should have to do anything is if something breaks," Andrew was briefing Sarah on the shuttle she would be aboard.
"Ill meet you on Minosia," Sarah said.
"Who knows with the Engines that thing has you might get there before us," Michelle said since she had come down to see her new teammate off.
"You never know," Sarah said.
Sarah took the time to go up to the bridge.
"Sarah, how fast would you like to go?" the computer ready to adjust to her preference.
"Are you capable to going at Warp 10?" Sarah inquired. Since she had no idea how speed was measured by the computer.
"Based on my knowledge Warp 10 is Infinite Speed. Besides I go at Hyperrush Velocity not Warp Speed. Im equipped with Hyperrush Accelerators not a fancy Warp Drive," the computer corrected.
"Like whatever. Just put the pedal to the metal and try not to pop a microchip," Sarah said.
Sarah was completely unprepared for the sudden acceleration as the cruiser shot out of Airtron at Maximum Hyperrush Velocity.
"Oh Man, Sarah has to be careful what she tells the computer," Andrew said. "That is not recommended speed for launch."
"Why how fast did it leave?" Michelle inquired. Somehow she had the feel she really didn't want to know.
"Full speed," he answered. knowing she was right to be apprehensive, a second ago.
In fact the Cruiser left the Carrierzord with such velocity that it propelled Airtron at an almost equivalent speed in the opposite direction. It was also the Wrong Direction.
Two Days later the Cruiser came out of Hyperrush Velocity in Orbit of Phaedos. Sarah changed into Fatigues and Teleported down. She was promptly attacked by Dulcea. Sarah though did her impression of a Trapeze act and sent Dulcea in her usual Scant Green outfit flying into a Tree.
"You are good traveler. Who are you?" Dulcea asked.
"Sarah Rimyard of Capsilon IX. I understand that you can help me activate the rest of my powers. That is if you are Dulcea Master Warrior of Phaedos."
"You are obviously a very good warrior. How many people have you used that trick on?" Dulcea asked.
"Lets see one of my teammates before I joined the team. In fact that stunt lead to my getting a three week suspension from school. Then I attacked a Damox with it and knocked out eleven of those creeps counting the one I got in the rear. You were the next target. The Trick is to get your opponent when their back is turned," Sarah said.
"You are obviously a very cunning Ranger," Dulcea said as she led Sarah to the ceremonial Grounds.
Soon Sarah was in the proper frame of mind.
Sarahs Quest
Sarah opened her eyes and saw that she was in a fairly open area. A Dark Gray Ranch Style House was off on her left one portion perpendicular to the main house. Off to one side was another building of a lighter color and somewhat Barn Shaped but with a door like on a garage that was close in color to the shingles on the main building. A small Vegetable Garden was straight ahead and slightly to the left of her. An orange Persian Style Cat was prowling along a hedgerow behind the garden. Farmland appeared to border the two visible sides of the property. Sarah was noting a strange sound as she suddenly was chasing the cat. Wondering why she would do something like that she took a look at her feet and saw a couple paws.
"God I have an interesting Spirit Animal. Thankfully I learned how to track various animals so I know my spirit animal is a fox."
After talking and sparring with Dulcea a little Sarah teleported up to the Galactic Cruiser and Walked onto the Bridge.
"How did it go down below?" the computer asked.
"Good, I was successful in my mission. At the Best speed possible set an intercept course to meet up with Airtron and then engage the engines," she ordered. This time she made sure to phrase her wording carefully.
"Setting Course for Minosia at Hyperrush 7," the computer confirmed.
Sarah then took the time to go into the Kitchen and look through the cupboards for something to eat.
"Oh man Were out of Cheerios," she was miffed that that she couldn't have one of her favorite snacks. "I knew I should have gone shopping before we left."
"Sarah, you left the Cheerios on the Simudeck," the computer reminded her. She sounded as if she were about to laugh out loud any moment.
"Oh," Sarah felt a bit stupid for forgetting.
Four Days later Sarah stood by as they approached Airtron.
"Airtron, this is the Galactic Cruiser requesting docking clearance," Sarah called over the communications system.
"Clearance granted," Andrew broadcasted.
Sarah soon joined everyone on the Carrierzord. Michelle noted how Sarah had somehow added a small coin containing a fox to the Jacket of her Utilities.
"IS it against regulations to wear our Spirit animal on our uniforms?" Sarah inquired since she was confused about the whole thing.
"It makes you stand out. Besides our uniforms are a little plain," Michelle said.
"Heck when I was in Settlement 4 that first time Dionne had commented how when she sees a uniform like we have she expects to see a lot of decorations and so forth. Luckily Amelia informed her that the team was too new for things like Medals and Ribbons," Marsha Commented.
A short time later on the Simudeck Aphrealle was taking on the Jackson Twins, Michelle and Andrea. Amelia and Greg were watching the fun since Bobby, Mitsu, and Sarah were making up for the sparring that was wrecked by the last Xenonite Battle. The Main Attraction was for the most part One sided since Aphrealle due to her being an unknown adversary but also her large amount of experience from her long life.
"Id say that was a world class workout," Roxanne commented while wiping the sweat off her face.
A Short time after the Rangers and Aphrealle were cleaned up Sereia gathered everyone in the Wardroom.
"OK Gang, here is the situation on Minosia. Compared to many Colonies including your own Minosias environment is more Earthlike. Our Destination is Reagle Valley the Capital and Largest City. Among the Attractions of Reagle Valley is the Guardian Fortress where I will arrange for you to be quartered, a Huge Business District, and of course a lot of the Embassies," Sereia informed the rangers. In order for them to know what to expect.
The next day they arrived in orbit of Minosia. Andrew took the helm with Sereia on hand for the landing cycle. He decided to land in the Private Hangar Bay for the Palace.
"Gang, we have a possible Hostile approaching. Im activating Sentinel," Chiana informed the others when she spotted Airtron.
A Forcefield then appeared around the Palace.
Meanwhile Sereia noticed the field appearing on a scope.
"Andrew, dont try to land yet the defense grid is online," Sereia suddenly warned. "Rayno, the Ship approaching Guardian Fortress is friendly. The Midnight crashed on Capsilon but I brought help back. Disengage Sentinel."
The Field then lowered as the Red Guardian had turned it off. Much to the Chagrin of Sereias pink haired daughter. Not realizing that her mother had sent a mental message, to Rayno. Half an hour later Airtron had landed but had remained in its modified form.
Sereia noticed as everyone was disembarking from the ship that the Skeleton Crew she had left behind when she had left for Capsilon IX was waiting.
"Sereia, welcome home," Rayno called in greeting. Very glad his lover was safe. During the time Sereia was gone Rayno despaired, that neither would see each other again.
"Thanks Rayno," Sereia said as she ran up to her friends and family. Rayno was unable to say anything else as Sereia Kissed Rayno and gave Chiviusa and Krystal huge hugs. Chiviusa was a younger version of Sereia, only having pink hair instead of blonde. While Krystal looked more like Rayno.
The Rangers were amused at the scene and note how happy their new friend seemed to be.
A short while later Hino Rayno started to give the Rangers a tour of the Fortress It seemed like everywhere they looked Magnificent Crystals were found. Amelia couldnt resist taking scans of the crystals so she could figure out their composition. In fact every Ranger was amazed by the Fortress and found some area that interested them from the Sparkling Command Center which Michelle found interesting to Sereias Throne Room which Amelia liked since the Whole Room had looked like it was carved out of One Humongous Crystal.
"You could fit the Entire Gymnasium and Pool in this one room," Amelia said.
"Ill take your word for it since I dont know what you are referring to," Rayno said.
"Our base back on Capsilon IX. It has a gymnasium in it which we use for exercise and games along with a pool which Amelia spends a ton of time in," Greg commented.
The Next area Rayno showed them was the Living Quarters. This area sparkled just as much as the rest of the Fortress.
"Rayno, I can tell that the Crystals help keep things fairly light but How do you darken the rooms at night so people can sleep?" Sarah asked.
"You see that pile of cloths over on the table?" Rayno asked referring to a 60 centimeter square table which stood near the door. A Pile of dark colored cloths about 20 centimeters thick was on top. The other furnishing consisted of a queen size bed and a dresser of a dark colored wood. A Door could be seen in one corner which Bobby opened to find a Walk in Closet about two and half meters by five meters in size. "You simply throw those over the Crystals. Bobby maybe you should take this room. Ill put Greg across the Hall. These are standard accommodations. April, you, Amelia, Andrew, and Michelle will be given Suites," She added. "The only difference between the Suites and these rooms is the suites have an outer sitting room."
"Why are the four of us being given better accommodations?" Aphrealle asked picking up on the fact that Rayno had used her Earth name.
"Sereias request," Rayno's only answer. His wife didn't really make much sense on the explanation, about where the four were assigned quarters.
A Short while later Marsha knocked on Amelias suite door. Amelia opened the door a short while later.
"I was hanging up my uniforms," Amelia said though she had on a Hot Pink Dress instead of a uniform.
"Whoa, you definitely lucked out on your room," Marsha commented as she noticed the two three seater couches of a neutral color. Also a nice end table was between the two of a darker color. A Big Clear section of glass was on the Right hand wall next to the door to the Inner Room.
"View Screen," Amelia said indicating the purpose of the Glass.
Andrea meanwhile was reading a book while seated on her bed when a call came in.
"Communications to Andrea," a voice paged.
"Andrea here," she responded. Not really expecting anyone off planet to contact her.
"You have a call coming in from Capsilon IX but I think the Caller is on some planet called Diatles," the voice clarified to see whether if that would help.
"Patch it through somehow," she was then fully alert, since that was the planet were her family currently lived.
"Anne, you doing all right. Man you are a hard person to get a hold of," A Male face with the same Brown Hair and Hazel eyes that the Teal Ranger possessed said after appearing in a smaller version of the viewscreen that Amelia had in her quarters.
"Kevin, you obviously are after something," Andrea said. "I can tell because thats the only time you call me Anne."
"Anne, we have a problem here on Diatles. I called the Academy looking for you only you they said you were assigned to Capsilon IX so I had them transfer me and a bald guy said you were on some planet called Minosia so he transferred me there. It took ten minutes for the Communications Officer there to find where you were," he told his sister. During the explanation he sounded agitated.
"Well whats wrong?" she asked. Ready to hear bad news because of the state her brother was in.
"There has been an accident," he calmly told his sister. Looking like he wished she could be spared from the news.
"Are mom and dad all right?" Andrea asked concern creeping into her voice as her wrists shook enough that her morpher halves appeared.
"Let me just say this Anne. It might be best if you came home to Diatles for a little bit," he advised.
"Kevin, the reason the other rangers and I are on Minosia is to help the defense team here. Who knows how long we will be here. If I can get away I will come but I think duty should come first. The best I can do is keep in contact with you. Ill check in later and see how things are," she informed.
"Sounds good," her brother said as he ended the call.
Aphrealle meanwhile was with Sereia in the Infirmary. Six people were laying on cots in it. Some Orbs were nearby. Each orb was a different color. Shaped in the form of cat's eyes. The size of two rubies. See through and inside was a smaller stone.
"Sereia, those orbs look familiar. They look like ones Ive encountered before but I cant recall where," She said.
"Anything else you can recall?" Sereia asked since it sounded like a potential clue.
"The orbs were neutral but the neutrality was lost if they are held by someone on either the side of the light or dark in which case they would side with the user of the orb," Aphrealle said.
Later that afternoon in another part of Minosia the Guardians enemy Morgana was hatching a plan against the new allies of the Minosian Guardians. Purple hair in a ponytail, over her left shoulder. Golden eyes, looking like the color of the sun. Morgana's facial features were similar to Nightshade. She stood six feet, seven. She had a pale complexion. Most of her body was muscle. Morgana's silver body armor inflicted others of her status. Around her waist was a black leather belt, a snake design on the buckle. Strapped on the inside of her forearms were the Hell queen's favorite weapons. A needle shooter which fired projectiles laced with poison was on the right one. On the left was a knife forged into the shape of a bat wing. Green sandals with wings on the rear decorated her feet. Concealed under were blades which eject without warning. Red silk gloves were on her hands.
"Pink Enforcer, Red Enforcer, Black Enforcer, and Gold Enforcer, GO see what The Pink Guardians new friends are made of," she commanded.
"Yes My Lady," Guinniverre better known as Black Enforcer said. "Lets pay a visit on New Haven where their Satellite Base is."
The four Enforcers then left for New Haven. AS they Neared New Haven they could see that some kind of a Polymer was used to build all the buildings and the Rocket Cars zoomed along at speeds that would have left the Jetcycles in the dust. The area around New Haven Studios had the shortest buildings at maybe 2-4 stories max where as the Norm appeared to be 100-200 story buildings. The Buildings of the Studio though covered maybe 20 acres a piece since most of them were used for filming movies and TV shows. Off to one side you could see several floating cameras filming a scene in a movie that had a romantic look to it. The Enforcers chose that spot for their attack
Meanwhile in the extremely bright Command Center within the Guardian Fortress a Huge Room with a Conference Table of the same dark wood as the rest of the Furniture. A Huge Screen took up the entire Back Wall and the controls were at one of the seats at the table. The only problem was it was Amikas seat where the controls were. Amelia though was seated there.
"OK Gang, here is the problem. Our Satellite Base in New Haven is under attack," Sereia said. "The Pink, Red, Black, and Gold Enforcers were spotted."
"How far away is New Haven?" Michelle asked.
"7 hours at car speed. Car speed being about 113 km/h," Rayno said.
"The Zords can go a lot faster," Amelia said.
"Agreed," Michelle said. "Lets fly."
Within minutes the Rangers were in the Air. Sir-Lance-a-lot lead the flight. Half an hour later they arrived in New Haven.
"What took you so long?" Orange Enforcer drift with venom.
"WE ran into a 1500 km/h zone," Michele said.
The Rangers split two or three per enemy with Amelia, Greg, and Andrea attacking The Gold Enforcer, Mitsu, Bobby, and Sarah, getting the Pink Enforcer, The Red Enforcer was stuck with Michelle and Marsha while the twins were in charge of tag teaming The Black Enforcer.
"Andrea, you all right?" Amelia asked after twenty minutes since she noticed how her Teal Suited Companion wasnt fighting with her usual style.
"Its nothing Amelia, Ill manage," Teal Ranger gruptly snapped. Hoping her teammate wouldn't ask too many questions.
"I dont know even Eclipsed youre not doing very well," Amelia said.
"Ill manage Amelia OK," Andrea growled between her teeth.
"OK for now but if you get too overwhelmed Im sending you back to base," Amelia said.
The Red Enforcer was trying to keep Michelle and Marsha busy but Michelle started to get angry. Suddenly Her hands started heating to the point the heat of a comet. The fireballs then formed the glow. They streaked at The Red Enforcer. Red Enforcer suddenly Erupted in Flames as the Fireballs hit her. Soon as that happened the other Negarian Enforcers retreated. The Rangers then returned to base.
"Andrea, what was going on back at the fight?" Michelle asked.
"What do you mean?" Andrea inquired. She tried her best to make it sound like nothing was amiss.
"You looked like you were having a very off day," Michelle pointed out. Not really believing all was okay.
"There is a problem back on Diatles where my family is. I have a feeling something happened to my parents since my brother Kevin tracked me down here soon after we arrived. HE tried to recommend I return home but I knew how important this mission was," Andrea said.
"Andrea, how specific was Kevin in informing you what happened?" Michelle queried.
"Not very he simply said that there had been an accident. Im assuming it deals with my parents if he called instead of one of them. HE then recommended I return to Diatles. Things had been so busy since I found out I was being assigned to your team I never got around to telling my parents I was being posted to Capsilon. This meant Kevin had to contact Triforia only for them to forward the call to Capsilon IX where probably Professor Damon transferred it to the Guardian Fortress," Andrea said.
"Andrea, I only have one more thing to say. Try to return to duty soon as you can. Before you return to duty check with the Bunker see where you need to return," Michelle said.
"Are you ordering me to rush home to Diatles?" Andrea inquired.
"Only if you wish to interpret it that way," Michelle said.
"Tell you what Michelle, you let me remain for now and if either things continue to remain the way they are on Diatles or get worse then I will immediately take a High Speed Transport to Diatles. I ran some calculations and I can be there within two days at speeds slower then Andrea left Airtron for Phaedos at. Lets face it Michelle you need everyone you can get," Andrea said.
"Its against my better judgement and Aphrealle will probably have whatever for her is the equivalent of a Coronary but OK," Michelle said.
The Rangers took the time to get to know the Planets active defenders. The next day everyone was sitting in the Extremely Well Light main Dining Room at a table that while it was only six meters by one meter looked long enough to land Sir-Lance-a-lot on. Sereia was at one end of the table and Aphrealle on the other with the Rangers and Guardians sitting along the long sides. When possible Couples were placed together.
"Princess Sereia. New Haven Base is back under attack, The Entire Negarian Enforcer Band along with a company of Damox and some Shadow Wraths," A Controller with Long Dark hair said as she ran in.
"We better get to work then?" Sereia said as She and the other Guardians gathered together. The Rangers also gathered into a group. The Wraths looked human but as the Rangers were morphing they Dropped their Disguise to reveal Big Bulbous Heads with big Blazing eyes. Their Arms were real thin with Claws and the legs were also extremely thin. In fact the Arms and legs looked almost like tentacles.
"Ranger Eclipsed." Michelle screamed. "Red Zordonian Power" A Red Light Covered Michelle before forming into a Red Cybernetic Armor which was Forty Percent Stronger then the basic armor and was also shinier. Her Helmet Resembled a Raven. There wasnt a Color Difference in her gloves and boots.
"Pink Zordonian Power" Amelia was bathed in Pink light before it formed her cybernetically enhanced armor. Like Michelle her gloves and boots had stayed the same color as her basic morph. Her helmet though resembled a Jaguar.
"Blue Zordonian Power" The Blue Light flowed over Bobby and when it went off His Helmet resembled an Owl and everything else was the same except for the basic color.
"Green Zordonian Power" Greg held back the shock as the Green Light encompassed him. HE was pleased when the Hyena appeared on his helmet and was glad he still had his silver gloves and boots.
"Yellow Zordonian Power" Marsha felt the Yellow Light bath her in glory as her Rattlesnake helmet appeared and then her Yellow cybernetic armor flowed down ending with her silver boots.
"White Zordonian Power" Roxanne was bathed in White Light with a Minx on her helmet and the same basic color to her boots and gloves.
"Purple Zordonian Power" Vanessa relaxed as she was bathed in Purple Light. The Horse appearing on her helmet and her purple cybernetically enhanced armor flowing down to turn into purple boots and her gloves white.
"Orange Zordonian Power" Mitsu held on as Orange Light bathed her as it formed her cybernetically enhanced armor and her helmet took on the appearance of a cheetah.
"Teal Zordonian Power" Andrea felt the rush as the Light Encircled her from Head to toe. Her Teal helmet resembling her ancestors green helmet. The Cybernetic Rush of her enhanced armor felt refreshing.
"Platinum Zordonian Power" Sarah had a slight smile as she was bathed in a Grayish White Light. Her helmet taking on the look of a fox. The cybernetic enhancements even helped her be ready for action.
Sereia, Rayno, and their teammates that were available also transformed and when completed they were in similar outfits to what Sereia was wearing when she was found on Capsilon IX except for differences in color.
The Rangers then headed for their zords. Soon they arrived back in New Haven. The Negarian Enforcers and their Troops were waiting near Sound Stage 4 a fairly Well Built Building of a Polymer Design that had Rounder corners everywhere you looked. Several Cameras with Antennae on Floaters were also nearby since it looked like the Enforcers had interrupted an outside Shoot. About Thirty Feet from the Action a Tall Human looking person was standing. IT was hard to see much since he had a Mahogany Colored Hooded Cloak on that Disguised his body. A perfect specimen of a Haliaeetus leucocephalus rested on his shoulder. The people in the area werent sure what to think since this animal was not native or found on Minosia or even Earth having been Extinct since 2026.
Sereia took on her counter part and Rayno did likewise. The Red Enforcer attacked with the original flame technique Rayno had. Rayno countered by using the same technique. Following up with the Flame Sniper. Connecting, The Red Enforcer was knocked 7.6 meters away. Suddenly Shadow Jupiter pranced on Guardian Mars from behind, but Mitsu assisted her and a battle between them ensued. While Rayno was watching the exchanges The Red Enforcer recovered and the fight between them continued.
Meanwhile the other Rangers were also Busy Marsha Happened to be unlucky because she ended up to take on The Ice Blue Enforcer and The Purple Enforcer, on her own! Marsha might be a excellent martial artist, that is when the fight was even and fair!!! Neither of her current opponents were allowing a fair fight The Ice Blue Enforcers real name was, Cordelia Martosa. The Purple Enforcer was really Heather Dawson. Heather kept blocking with Shadow Wall, while Ice Blue Enforcer attacked using Explosive Ice.
Andrea had to be the worst off, compared to the others because she had to combat three opponents. Guinniverre, The Plum Enforcer and The Pink Enforcer. Plum Enforcer was Torressa Silvercrest. Pink Enforcer was Jennifer Powell. What a real problem for the Teal Ranger, these three the most experienced in combat.
"You really think you can take us on?" Jennifer asked the Teal Ranger.
"I should think so," Andrea angrily replied. She felt this would cure her of her frustrations.
Meanwhile Michelle sent Bobby, Greg, Amelia and Sarah to handle the Wraiths and Damoxes. They seemed to be doing well, until more troops of both kind showed up! To make matters worst, some had combined to become very strong monsters! Luckily none had grown, but it was only a matter of time!!!
The twins were against Orange Enforcers and The Green Enforcer. Roxanne with Orange and Vanessa tangling with Green. The Negarian Enforcers which they were fighting had the upper hand because they were fighting dirty! Melanie Eastburg a.k.a. The Green Enforcer shot a jet of high concentrated water!!! Knocking the twins and allowing them to attack another Ranger. Unfortunately for the Negarian Enforcers the Rangers Cloaked Companion stepped in.
"How would you two Sluts like to take me on?" He called out.
Assisting the main Group against the Wraiths and Damox was a Tall Human looking Person in Cream Colored pants, silver belt, Green shirt with Blue sleeves and a Silver, black, and Green helmet. A Wristband with several buttons was on his left wrist.
"Cool, We have some real special assistance," Amelia said.
"Who is he?" Sarah asked.
"That Sarah is the Legendary Warrior Plastica. Personally Im surprised to see him since he died almost twenty-five years ago," Bobby supplied her with the identity of the mysterious warrior.
"Ill explain later," Plastica said. Hearing Bobby's comment. "We better get these things under control."
Things only got harder Twenty minutes later as three of the Monsters Grew. One Monster resembled a Vampire bat. Only the limbs looked to be advanced myoelectric limbs. The teeth were as sharp as razors; Heat beams were capable of being fired from his eyes. The Tail was capable of whipping action. His fingers were capable of firing missiles. He was simply known as the Count.
One Companion had several arms and looked like a Squid with Human Legs. This Squid though instead of shooting ink shot either a jet of Oil or an explosive liquid. The Oil kept the Rangers from finding him. At one point he sent an arm out and grabbed ahold of Mitsu but her wrist claws cut the harpoon cable.
The Third Monster Had the Ugly look of what would happen if Deviot and Darkonda ever joined but his head resembled a Lion.
"Not good," the Cloaked Warrior said. "Ranger Eclipsed Mahogany Ranger Power." The Warrior peered into space as a Mahogany Light surrounded him. His Armor looked like Normal Ranger armor right down to Condor appearance of his helmet. His gloves and boots had a whitish look.
"WE need Zordonian Megazord power," Michelle, Amelia, Bobby, Greg, and Marsha called out.
"Titan Megazord Online," Most of the Other Rangers called out. Elektra went into her Warrior Mode and became the upper torso. Her head didn't extend out. Isis slipped apart to form the legs. Robin latched onto Elektra's left and was the left arm. Freedom did likewise on the opposite end and emerged as the right arm. Finally Cleopatra attached to Elektra's back, allowing flight. The Head then popped out of an unseen compartment. Titan Megazord had the appearance of a druid. An orange cloak hid its face from view. Eagle like wings protected its chest. Leather like arm and shinguards were placed in the proper areas.
"Hercules, Maximum Burn," the Mahogany Ranger Called out. A Big Wedge Shaped Plane then Arrived. IT then Changed similar to the Mega Winger in fact even in Battle Warrior Mode it resembled the Silver Rangers old Zord.
"This is weird. Who has the Mahogany Crystal?" Michelle voice projected puzzlement, from the Zordonian Megazord.
"I have no idea. Let me check with my mother," Amelia said choosing her words so they would know which one she meant.
"I have no idea who it could be," Aphrealle said. "The Inhabitants of Minosia though have prepared a new Zord for us. Its known as the Spectral Viper. IF needed call for it and Form the Zordonian Spectral Megazord. WE modified the Original plan from when the team first formed.
Two Hours later the Rangers were getting tired. By this time The Count was destroyed but Squido and Darkiot still existed.
"Rangers I think you better summon that weapon your friend told you about," the Mahogany Ranger strongly suggested. Hoping it would give them an edge over the enemies.
"Agreed who ever you are," Michelle said.
"You will learn who I am after the battle," he promised them.
"Im going to hold you to it," Marsha swore.
"Not a problem my darling," was his response. This immediately got Marsha suspicious.
"Nah no way could it be him," a dismissal of the notion, in her voice.
"I hereby call forth the Spectral Viper and the Zordonian Spectral Megazord." The Spectral Viper Shimmered from subspace into existence. Its cockpit was designed using the Delta Megaship, during the Astro Ranger period. The rear formed a somewhat turtle shell dome almost like Tor the shuttlezord from second season Might Morphing Power Rangers. The Spectral Viper flew on four wings. Two to either sides of the front and likewise on the rear. Mounted on the belly was a plasma cannon, one long barrel reaching the cockpit and two shorter barrels. Distributed along the roof were five missile pods. Each carried a hundred rockets. All four wings had three railguns which were rotatable. The fighter was painted in a pure silver sheen. The Shell then retracted slightly in the center and the Zordonian Megazord climbed aboard
"Aiming all weapons on target," Amelia said. A volley of weapons then Flew Squido was the First to fall. After another Heavy Exchange of Volleys including sword swipes by Both Hercules and the Titan Megazord Darkiot was destroyed.
The Monster was soon destroyed. The Rangers and Guardians then returned to the Guardian Fortress with Plastica and the Mahogany Ranger joining them. With Marshas back to him the Mahogany Ranger took his helmet off revealing the face of an African American Male and then turned Marsha around real fast and planted a kiss on her lips.
"Ty, how did you get here?" Marsha asked when she recognized the way her boyfriend kissed.
"Robert and I came using Portals he created. Our first stop of course was Phaedos so I could learn my spirit animal then we came here. We didnt want you to realize I was here so I disguised myself so I looked something like a Damox only unlike the Damox I had a bald eagle with me," Ty enlightened the Rangers on why he wasn't spotted right away.
"Im like really lost now," Andrea said. "I thought Bald Eagles were extinct."
"Powers of Glass and Plastic Change me back to my human Form," Plastica called out. His uniform then dissolved to show a Human Male with Dark hair wearing a Dark colored GSA Uniform.
"My alter ego is named Robert Gutheim. You are correct that Bald Eagles are extinct but one of the things my Powereon Abilities enable me to do is Change into an Eagle. More specifically a bald eagle. Also using this ring I can open portals through time and or space. Similar to what the Guardians can do from their base in New Haven. OF course I cant go between dimensions just different times or places in the same dimension. I started out in Mirinoi back around 2030 then I went to Modern Day Capsilon hoping to visit Dr. Stephanie Collington where Powermatic or as you know him Professor Damon sent Tyrone and I to Phaedos so he could back you up here. From there using another of my portals I brought Tyrone here. Thank god last time my powers were fixed they were fixed such that I dont have to worry when I use a real power hungry ability like Eagle Mode. Otherwise I might have revealed mine and Tyrones identities too early on.
