I walked to my locker at Harwood County High School and opened it, sighing from boredom when I heard a voice I hadn't heard in five years.

"Chad?"

I turned around and saw it was one of my two best friends, Emma Goodall.

"Emma?"

We both hugged each other. "Oh, my gosh, it's been so long." Emma said.

"I know. Five years. How've you been?"

"Not bad. You?"

"Can't complain."

"How're your folks?"

I shrugged. "Well enough. My mom's out on tour for a few months, so it's just me and my dad until she gets back."

"How's Mr. Mercer's artwork coming?"

"Mine or his?"

"Both."

"Pretty good."

A blonde girl walked up to us then. It was my other best friend, Gia Moran.

"Where's my hug?" She asked and I hugged her.

"Good to have you back, Chad." She said

"Good to be back, Gia." I said.

"Come on. Let's get to class." Emma said.

With that, we walked to our first class: Science.

The teacher, Mr. Burley, set his briefcase and scarf on his desk.

"Okay, class, let's start the year with a science brainteaser. What species will outlast all others on Earth?" He asked and Emma's hand was the first one up. "Emma?"

"Insects. They'll survive all the bad stuff we're doing to the environment. Some of them have lots of legs. They'll be the last ones standing."

I smirked. "Ever the nature lover." I thought.

As she answered, a young man named Noah raised his hand.

"Dude, calm down." A guy behind Noah, named Jake, said. "You're gonna hurt yourself."

"She's wrong. Wrong, wrong, wrong." Noah insisted.

Mr. Burley looked at him. "Yes, Noah? You have a different answer?"

"Robots. Robots powered by perpetual motion engines." Noah replied.

"Robots are machines, so technically, they're not a species." Gia reasoned.

"Beautiful and smart." Jake said.

"And wrong." Noah said as the new kid walked in.

Mr. Burley looked at him. "Ah. You must be Troy. Nice of you to join us. Maybe you can answer our brainteaser. What species will survive all others?"

"Us. Humans." Troy replied.

"How's that, Troy?"

"If humans work together, we can overcome anything." Troy explained.

I smirked. "I like how this guy thinks." I thought.

"Okay. Interesting. I certainly hope Troy's right." Mr. Burley said.

I saw Jake had a strange look on his face and sighed then made his pencil fall off his desk. He picked it up and I looked at Emma to see a frown on her face. I carefully reached to her mind.

"What? It's not like I hurt him." I told her.

"You're using your powers again. You know how I feel about that." She replied.

"I know, but I can't help myself, Em. You know I act on impulse sometimes."

She sighed silently. "I know…"

Emma always was against me using my powers ever since she and I discovered them.

The bell eventually rang and I walked out of the classroom with Emma and Gia. After I was done at my locker, I picked up my skateboard then walked to Emma with Gia.

"Coming to Ernie's?" Gia asked.

"Who, me or Emma?" I asked.

"Both." Gia replied.

"I'm down, but I'm gonna head to the skate park first." I said.

Gia nodded. "Emma?"

"Yeah, but first, I'm going to the woods. The orange monarch butterflies are migrating, and it's like a once in a lifetime event." Emma replied, getting her camera out. One of her books fell out, but Gia quickly caught it.

"Great reflexes, Gia." I praised.

"Thanks." She said, handing Emma her book, then Emma put it in her locker.

"I'll meet you guys a little later." She said to both of us and turned her attention to Gia. "Oh, order me a…"

"I know." Gia said then said what Emma wanted from memory then she looked at me.

"For you?" She asks.

"Come on, Gia. You know what I always get." I tease.

"Yeah. A vanilla ice cream in a waffle cone." She said.

I smiled then walked with Emma until we were out of the school. I set my board down then put my helmet on and looked at Emma. "See you at Ernie's, Em."

"See you there."

I smiled then rode my board to the skate park. I saw no one else was around yet, smirked then skated on the half-pipe for a bit then stopped and went to sit on a bench. I pulled out my sketchpad and started drawing.

After a few minutes, I felt something happening to me. The next thing I knew, I was in some sort of cave on my back. A second later, four others joined me. I recognized them as Troy, Noah, Jake, and Gia.

"How the-?" Jake started.

"What just happened?" I asked as we all got to our feet.

"I'm not sure, but it was scientifically impossible… and awesome." Noah replied.

"How'd we end up here?" Troy asked.

"Just where is here?" Gia asked.

"It worked." A voice said. "It worked!"

We saw a small robot on wheels try to roll past us, but Troy grabbed it. "What is that?" He asked as the robot turned to us.

"Wow. An old school robot. Like in the movies." Noah said.

"Old school?!" The robot asked, offended then shot at Noah, making us all back up. Suddenly, lights came on and at the far end, I noticed a Tiki head.

"What's happening?" I asked when the others noticed the Tiki head.

"Whoa. Freaky Tiki." Jake said.

"No kidding, dude." I said as we all looked around.

I noticed the figures lining the room. "Wait a minute. My mom told me stories about these figures when I was little."

"She did?" Gia asked.

"Yeah. She said they're Power Rangers."

Troy's mind revealed images of some of the past Power Rangers. "I've seen these before… in my dreams." Troy said.

"This is amazing." Noah said.

"Welcome, humans." The Tiki said, making us all jump and look at it. "I am Gosei. My mentor, Zordon, placed me here to be guardian of this planet. I am of the Earth, and embody its great and mystical powers."

"Guardian?" Troy inquired.

"I only awaken when the Earth is faced with an extraordinary threat." Gosei said.

"Uh, whoever you are, you look like something on one of my dad's Hawaiian shirts." Jake said.

"I took this familiar form to communicate with humans. This is a perilous time for mankind. The Earth needs you." Gosei said.

"What are you talking about?" Gia asked.

"Aliens have already landed and you have chosen to protect it."

"A giant talking Tiki and now aliens?" Jake joked. "You gotta be kidding me."

"He's not kidding." I heard Emma say then turned around.

"Emma!" I shouted then rushed to her to help her up.

"You're mixed up in this too?" Gia asked as I helped Emma up.

"I saw this just before… whatever just happened." Emma said as she showed us a picture of some sort of giant insect looking creature.

"Yeesh! That thing is ugly!" I said.

"What gives?" Gia asked. "This can't be real."

"Your skepticism is healthy, but this is all too real." Gosei said. "You have been carefully selected to form a team in the long tradition of the Power Rangers."

"Why us?" I asked.

"Tensou, show them." Gosei said.

I looked at the little robot and guessed he was Tensou. I also saw him hovering over the ice cream Jake dropped when we were brought here. "What? Oh, yes. On screen." He said, chuckling nervously as he wiped the ice cream with his left wheel. "Activated."

Emma looked at the pink display screen and gasped softly.

"Emma, you're not only a great BMX cyclist, but you also truly care about the environment. You go to great lengths to take care of it. You shall soar up from the flames like a phoenix and be the Pink Ranger." Gosei said.

"Pink is my favorite color. But what's this Ranger deal?" Emma asked.

I looked at the white display screen. "Chad, you're not only an amazing skateboarder, artist, and singer, but your courage to face any situation is limitless and your selflessness goes unbound. As the White Ranger, you'll be able to fight with the grace of a dolphin."

I looked at him. "Well, I do look good in white." I admitted.

"Noah, your thirst for knowledge is unequaled. Our future depends upon the work of great scientific minds like yours."Gosei started as Noah looked at the blue display screen. "As the Blue Ranger, your attacks will bite with the force of a shark."

The green display screen came on. "There's nobody with the boundless athleticism and enthusiasm to match you, Jake. I am making you the Black Ranger, who will fight with the stealth of a snake." Gosei said then turned his attention to Gia.

"Then there is Gia. You are calm under pressure and pursue excellence with the ferocity of a tiger. You will be the Yellow Ranger." He said.

I looked at Gia to see her smirking.

"As for you, Troy, your purity of spirit and strength are the result of incredible discipline. Since you have met adversity in your life with great skill, you shall be the Red Ranger and, like the dragon, you will serve as the team's leader." Gosei concluded.

"There must be a mistake here. I'm new in town." Troy said.

"There is no mistake. You have been chosen because of your skills and character."

"Who are they?" Noah asked, referring to the figures.

"Lining the room, you can see the Rangers who came before you. Now you shall form a new team. Each of you will be given access to extraordinary powers that will help you protect the Earth."Gosei said, then six smaller versions of him appeared in front of us. "Those are your morphers." He explained as we took them in our hands. "With them, you will morph into Mega Rangers. You will wield power cards that will unlock special weapons and abilities. And you shall command mighty machines called Megazords."

"Morphers, power cards, Megazords?" Noah repeated. "All this tech, how do we use it?"

"All in be revealed in time." Gosei replied.

"If the Earth is under attack and you think we're the ones to protect it, we're in." Troy said.

"Megaforce, your mission starts now."Gosei said then the next think we all knew, we were in the city.

"Does he have to keep doing that?" I asked.

"Is everyone okay?" Troy asked.

"I guess so." Noah said when Emma looked ahead of us.

"Look!" She said and we all saw some kind of foot soldiers were scaring civilians.

"Uh, aliens?" Jake guessed.

"Fascinating." Noah said.

"Forget that. They're bad news." Troy said.

"Hey!" Jake shouted, getting the foot soldiers' attention. "What do you think you're doin'?"

I looked at him. "You always puttin' your foot in your mouth?" I rhetorically asked him.

"Yeah. Uh, I'm guessing these aliens don't come in peace." Noah said and I gulped.

I then looked at Emma, who shook her head. "No, Chad." She said, causing the others to look at us.

"Em, I don't have a choice." I said.

She sighed. "Alright, but only on these freaks."

"What are you guys talking about?" Troy asked.

I looked at him. "You'll see." I said then turned to the foot soldiers and concentrated then pulled one of them to me then slammed it down to the ground.

I looked at the others. "How did you…?" Noah started.

"Fight now, explanation later." I said simply.

We all then took off the foot soldiers. Troy was holding his own with his martial arts skills. Emma used her camera to blind the ones she was fighting while Jake utilized his soccer skills. I kept using my telekinetic powers. We fought hard, but their numbers were too great.

"This isn't good." Noah said. The foot soldiers started shooting at us, knocking us all off our feet.

"They're closing in on us." Gia said.

"What do we do?" I asked.

"Gosei told us the Morphers would give us power. Let's use them. Follow my lead. It's morphin' time." He said then we pulled out our Morphers and opened the slots then put our cards in the slots.

"Go Go Megaforce!" We shouted in unison, then closed the slots.

"Megaforce… Red!" Troy said.

"Megafore… Blue!" Noah said.

"Megaforce… Black!" Jake said.

"Megaforce… Pink!" Emma said.

"Megaforce… White!" I said.

"Megaforce… Yellow!" Gia said.

"Earth's Defenders Never Surrender!" We shouted in unison.

Troy, Emma, Noah, and I charged into battle.

"It's time for our new weapons." Gia said then loaded her weapon card into her Morpher's slot.

"Uh, got it. Good call." Jake said then loaded his weapon card into his Morpher's slot.

"Summon Battle Gear!"

"Tiger Claw!" Gia said.

"Snake Axe!" Jake said.

Noah and I were fighting some of the foot soldiers when he looked at me. "Our turn!" He said.

"On it!" I said then he and I loaded our weapons cards into our Morpher's slots.

"Summon Battle Gear!"

"Shark Bowgun!" Noah said.

"Dolphin Mace!" I said.

"Nice, guys." Emma said then followed our lead.

"Summon Battle Gear!"

"Phoenix Shot!" Emma said.

Troy took down three foot soldiers then followed what we did. "Last, but not least. Summon Battle Gear! Dragon Sword!"

We all then kept taking on the foot soldiers.

"Keep taking the fight to them, guys." Troy said.

"Yeah. What choice do we have?" Jake rhetorically asked.

Several of them charged at Gia and Jake.

"Megaquake!" Jake shouted and they both struck at the ground, making it shake and some of the aliens fell through the crevice they created.

Noah shot one that was gonna attack them from behind.

"Nice shot, Noah!" Jake praised then Noah and I leapt off the roof we were on and he kept shooting.

"Loving this Bowgun." He said.

I swung my Mace, taking some of them down. "I'm lovin' this Mace!" I said then several got in a line like a firing squad. They were about to fire until…

"Phoenix Shot!" Emma shouted, flying above us, taking down the foot soldiers.

"Emma!" I said.

"Ta-da! Wow! Did you see that? I can't believe I can fly." Emma said as I put a hand on her shoulder.

"Did you see what I just did?" Noah asked.

"We saw. But Gia will tell you that I was the star of the show." Jake said.

"We all did good." Gia stated.

"Yes, we did." I said.

"Uh-oh." Emma said as more of those foot soldiers appeared.

"Guys, we need Troy." Noah said.

"No kidding." I said.

"Here he comes." Jake said as a red tornado headed right for us, taking out the foot soldiers then revealed Troy.

"Wow. These powers are amazing." Troy said.

"Nice moves." Gia praised him when I looked to the left.

"Look sharp, guys." I said as we kept fighting the foot soldiers.

We soon beat them all and looked at each other.

"Nice job, guys." Troy said.

"That was awesome." Jake said.

"Yeah." Noah said.

I fell to one knee and held my helmet as I screamed in pain.

Emma knelt beside me. "Chad?!" She shouted, bringing me back to my senses and I panted.

"What happened?" Gia asked me.

"There's… a monster attacking… in the city…" I strained.

"We'll take care of it. Emma, stay here with him." Troy ordered when I shook my head. "No... I'm coming to help..."

"Chad, don't. You're not strong enough to fight." Emma insisted.

I looked at her. "Either way, Em, I'm not just gonna sit by while innocent lives are at risk." I said then stood up.

We all then headed to the city. When we arrived, we saw a type of beetle riding a giant ball of rocks.

We ran to it. "Hey, freak!" I shouted.

"You mean me?" It asked.

"Leave those folks alone!" Jake said.

"You can scare them, but we're not afraid." Troy said.

"So much for rock and roll!" The monster said as he called on foot soldiers. "Attack!"

"We'll protect the Earth no matter what it takes." Troy said.

"Power Rangers Megaforce!" We all shouted.

"You really want a fight? Then fine! Loogies, attack!" The creature ordered.

"Rangers, it is time to call upon your Megablasters." Gosei told us.

We readied the cards. "Troy, let's do it!" Noah said.

"Good call." Troy said.

"Megablaster… Activate." Various heads appeared on our sidearms.

"Okay. Let's fry these Loogies." Gia said.

"Take 'em down." I said.

"It's on." Troy said.

Noah shot a couple then let out a powerful blast. "Shark Blast!" He said then blew away several Loogies.

I took out a few then followed his lead. "Dolphin Blast!" I said and took out several more.

Jake took down some and did what me and Noah did. "Snake Blast!"

Gia blasted some then did the same thing. "Tiger Blast!"

Emma flew across a gap, taking down two Loogies on her left then followed suit. "Phoenix Blast!"

Troy did an aerial backflip to the ground, then shot several Loogies and finished the same way we all did. "Dragon Blast!"

We all then regrouped. "Way to go, guys." Troy said.

"I'll crush you!" The monster said, rolling the rock ball to us.

"Oh, boy!" I said.

"Take out that ball." Troy said and we all shot the ball, destroying it.

The monster launched an attack at us, but we stopped it.

"What?!" He shouted.

"Let's call on the Megaweapons." Troy said.

We put the cards in the slots. "Weapons... Activate!"

We each had our weapons in our hands.

"I've got fancy attacks, too!" The monster retorted then shot at us.

"Sky Strike!" Troy and Emma said in unison.

"Phoenix Shot!" She said and shot at the monster.

"Dragon Sword!" Troy said as he struck the monster with his sword.

"That's how you do it." Gia said then charged into the fight with Jake right behind her.

The monster fired at Gia, but she blocked the shots with her Tiger Claw. Jake jumped into the fight and struck twice with his Snake Axe. "Snake's Venom!"

"Tiger Claw!" Gia shouted then struck with her Tiger Claw.

I looked at Noah. "Let's get in this!" I told him.

He nodded. "I'll go high, you go low." He said and I nodded. Then he ran, jumped, and backflipped over the monster. "Shark's Bite!" He shouted, hitting the monster and I came running in.

"Dolphin's Bash!" I shouted, hitting the monster with my Dolphin Mace.

"Now, time to show true mega-power." Troy said.

"Combine!" We all shouted and combined our weapons.

"Megaforce blaster!"

"Sky power! Energize!" Troy and Emma said, putting cards on their weapons.

"Land power! Energize!" Jake and Gia said, putting cards on their weapons.

"Sea power! Energize!" Noah and I said, placing cards on our weapons.

"Megaforce blaster ready!"

The Megaforce blaster charged up.

"Dynamic victory charge!"

The monster was destroyed.

"Mega Rangers, that's a mega win." Troy said.

We were on our way back to Gosei and Tensou. On our way there, Noah looked at me.

"So, how did you do what you did with that Loogie?" He asked.

"I was born with telekinetic, telepathic, and empathic powers. They didn't manifest until I was twelve." I say.

"Gia and I were with him and his parents when he first discovered them." Emma added.

"After that, the three of them moved to his parents hometown of Reefside. Until today, at least." Gia finished.

All was quiet after that as we walked.

When we got into the Command Center, we were talking about our victory.

"Congratulations on a job well done." Gosei congratulated us.

"But, we were just lucky this time." Noah said.

"Luck had nothing to do with it. You rose to the occasion and unlocked your powers. Do not doubt yourselves. You were chosen and for good reason. This morning, you were regular kids leading normal lives, but now you must master your new powers and live extraordinary lives." Gosei said.

"This has to be the craziest first day of school ever, but I think we're prepared to do our part." Troy said.

"I'm not so sure." Emma said, making us look at her. "The helmet does mess up my hair."

"Emma." I said, slightly irritated.

"Just kidding." She said.

"We're a force to be reckoned with." Jake said.

"Yes. You are the Power Rangers Megaforce!" Gosei said.

Troy held his fist out and the rest of us followed suit.

"Earth's Defenders Never Surrender!" The six of us shouted in unison.

That's chapter one. I hope you guys will like this story. Review and I'll post more chapters.
