Shinkenger: 18th Century

Ch 1

Break Tradition

Japan: Year 1862. Two kids were outside playing with a ball when suddenly Ayakashi came out of a crevice. The kids tried to run but they were soon ganged up upon but a swarm of Ayakashi. Just as the kids were about to be killed a little lion figure attack the Ayakashi.

Just then a drum beat came out of nowhere and a flag with a symbol on it appeared and two figures came out from it.

"Yet another day fighting the Gedoshu. Right Take-Chan?"

"Ah. You ready Genta?"

Genta smiled. "Of course."

Takeru then said. "Let's go Shodophone! Ippitsu Sojo!"

"Sushi Changer! Ikkan Kenjo!"

In a flash the two of them change in two samurai like uniforms.

"Shinken Red. Shiba Takeru."

"The Same Gold Umemori Genta."

Shinkengers! Going Forth!" Both then said.

In a matter of minutes the Ayakashi were destroyed. Takeru and Genta transformed out of their Shinkenger forms.

"That is the third time in a day for the last 4 days the Gedoshu have been attacking like that." Genta said. "What do you think if going on with them Take-Chan?"

"Don't know. But we'll just have to keep fighting them when they do show up."

"TONO!" A voice shouted. It was Jii.

"Tono, Genta are you two alright?"

"Relax O-san, Take-Chan and I here are find."

"Where are the others?" Takeru asked.

"No need to worry Tono they took care of the Gedoshu on their end, now come I actually want to have a meeting with all of you."

The three of them made it back to the Shiba home where Ryunosuke, Kotoha, and Chiaki were waiting for them. Ryunosuke shot up and started asking questions.

"My lord are you alright?"

"Relax Ryunosuke. It was just a small matter." Takeru replied. "Now everyone sit down Jii here wishes to have a meeting."

A few seconds later the Kuroko brought everyone tea and Jii was ready.

"Everyone as you know the Gedoshu have been attacking nonstop in the past few days. The five of you have done well up till now preventing them from taking over the world. But now I believe it is time to for us to add the sixth Shinkenger."

"You mean Shinken Pink?" Chiaki asked.

"That is correct."

"But I thought the Shiraishi family never had a child?" Kotoha said.

"That is correct. I have decided that we have to break tradition and find someone who can be a trustworthy Shinken Pink."

Everyone turned to Takeru waiting for an answer. "As Jii said we have no choice. Jii tomorrow send a notice to the town's folk."

"Yes." Hikoma replied. "I'll start preparation right away." He then left.

Takeru continued the discussion though. "Alright for the time being we need to make a new strategy."

"TONO!" Jii yelled.

Takeru and the others ran to where Jii shouted.

"Jii what is it?" Takeru asked.

He then saw a girl collapsed on the door step.

"Jii get the Kuroko quick."

Jii nodded then left. While Takeru went to the girl.

"Oi are you alright? Say something."

The girl then moan.

"Good she's alive." Takeru thought to himself.

Just then the girl open one of her eyes and even though it was only a second Takeru could have sworn she looked right at him with hatred.

Just then the Kuroko came and carried her to the medical room.

"Tono do you know who that is?" Ryunosuke asked.

"No."

After an hour the Kuroko let them know that she was all better and was awake. The five Shinkengers and Jii walked into the room.

"Hello." Was the first words the girl said.

"Hello." The five of them said.

"What happened?" The girl asked next.

Takeru replied. "You collapsed in front of our doorstep. It turned out you were struck by poison in some way. Luckily the Kuroko here managed to take it out before it could spread any further than it did."

"I see." She then turned to a Kuroko who was right next to her giving her food. "Thank you."

The Kuroko nodded.

The girl then turned back to Takeru and the others and said, "My name is Mako, Mako Shigeru."

"I am Takeru Shiba and these here are Hikoma, Ikenami Ryunosuke, Umemori Genta, Hanaori Kotoha, and Tani Chiaki. Pleased to meet you."

"Please to meet you." The others said.

"Shiba? You mean the family that has been fighting the Gedoshu?" Mako asked.

"The same." Genta replied.

"Wow. I actually feel like I am intruding in a way."

"Don't worry about it names mean nothing to us." Takeru said to Mako.

Mako smiled. "That's good to know."

"Alright everyone I believe we should let Shigeru-san get some more rest." Jii said.

With that they left Mako's room.

The six of them thought that Mako seemed like a nice lady, however soon they would realize that Mako is not who she says she is.
