A/N: This is my first fanfic, I hope you guys like it. This is basically what I feel PRS should be more like. These scenes take place in between the episodes we see from Saben. The OCs are mainly here to help push the plot in the direction I want it to go. Anyway, enjoy!

Ch. 1: New Recruits
Emily groaned.
They were in what was now becoming an almost daily occurrence- a fight with a nighlock.
As usual, Jayden had gone charging to battle the nighlock, leaving her, Kevin, Mike, Antonio, and Mia to deal with the numerous moogers that accompanied the nighlock. It was easy at first, but the number of moogers just kept growing. Frustrated, she pulled out her sword and transformed it into the earth smasher. Emily quickly cut down the surrounding nighlock and saw her teammates had done the same with their weapons. Elated, she turned to face the nighlock but felt a surge of energy run through her, causing her to collapse to the ground.
What in the world? She thought, trying to get up. She heard Jayden call out in concern, but she and the others couldn't do anything- the nighlock seemed to have crippled them with the blast. Jayden turned back to the nighlock.
"Nobody hurts my friends nighlock- you're going to pay."
"Ha! You're wrong!" the nighlock sneered. "Now it's your turn."
The nighlock blasted Jayden, sending him flying. "Jayden!" Emily cried, concern for the red ranger flooding her.
"Pathetic rangers! Now watch as I flood your world!" The nighlock laughed.
"Not so fast!" A new voice called. All the rangers turned in surprise as two figures leapt through the air. They charged towards the nighlock, brandishing swords.
"You're time is up" a second voice reaffirmed. Emily could now see that the newcomers were samurai rangers themselves- they had on a white and a black uniform. The two faced off with the nighlock, kicking and striking with their swords. Suddenly, the black ranger got a lucky hit and sent the nighlock flying backwards. "Combine weapons?" he asked the white ranger. She nodded. "We're late, so we better finish him off."
White handed him her spin sword and he flipped the disks on the swords. Two streaks, one black and one white, surged out, twisting and turning until they formed a pure crystal light that struck the nighlock, causing it to explode in a shower of sparks.
"You guys okay?" The white ranger turned to the fallen samurai.
"Uh, yeah" Mike responded.
"Great, we've got to run" She replied, taking off. The black ranger nodded at them and quickly followed.
"Who were they?" asked Mia.
"I don't know- but wasn't that nighlock supposed to grow?" Kevin asked, bewildered. Nothing had happened since the explosion. "This is the third nighlock in a row that hasn't grown."
"I'm not sure what is happening Kevin" Jayden said, getting up and demorphing, "but I want to go talk to Mentor about this. I don't like it."
The six teens arrived at the Shiba house to find it seemingly deserted.
"Doesn't Ji usually wait outside for us after an attack?" Emily asked.
"Guess he's inside" replied Jayden. They entered the house and found Ji talking to two teenagers- a boy and a girl. The boy was tall, with dirty blond hair and light blue eyes that stared inquisitively at the rangers. The girl had wavy reddish-brown hair and piercing green eyes. She looked startled to see the rangers. "This one didn't change either, Ji" She said.
Emily felt Jayden stiffen beside her. She glanced at him and saw him staring incredulously at the pair.
"Rangers," Ji spoke up, "I would like you to meet your new teammates; Eve, the white ranger, and Jack, the black ranger."
The two turned to fully face the team. "Jayden!" The girl cried.
"You know her?" Antonio questioned.
"Yeah, we used to train together. You completed your missions, then?" He asked Eve.
"Some of them" Eve replied. "But now Jack and I are ready to resume training in order to help you defeat Master Xandred." She turned her head, taking in the rest of the team. "Introduce us?"
"Oh, right, this is Antonio, Mike, Mia, Kevin, and Emily." Jayden gestured to his teammates.
"Nice to meet all of you" Eve smiled at them. "We are looking forward in joining you in the fight against Xandred.
"Ooh-ah-ooh" Octoroo said. "They fell for it again, Master Xandred."
"Excellent" Master Xandred growled. "Those rangers will soon be destroyed!"
"But what about those two new ones?" Dayu questioned from the back of the ship. "Won't they prove to be trouble?"
"Let the rangers do whatever they want" Xandred replied. "We can match them kick for kick, trick for trick."
