NASADA Spaceport Mariner Bay, California


His official job title was supervisor, but to be honest, there was never much to supervise. There were three people under his command, all of them more than capable of running the entire department on their own, but regulations were very clear about having a full staff at all times. In the event something did happen, they were emergency; there were protocols that had to be followed. Still, during his fifteen years of services to NASADA, there had only been one incident, and that was years ago.

So there he was, sitting at his station, monitoring the screens. There was a sort of rhythmic hum to the systems, and he'd gotten accustom to them. There were, in a way, almost soothing.

"Hey Gram, I'm heading down to the galley to grab a soda or something, you want something?" one of his employees asked.

"Yeah, grab me a pop Anderson, looks like we have another long night ahead of us," he sighed.

"Yup, a lot of work to do," Anderson mumbled sarcastically, heading out the room.

He leaned back in his chair, kicking his feet up on the station, attempting to relax. The official name of their department was stellar observation unit, all of them dedicated to watching the stars in the event of any extraterrestrial activity. Most times, the equipment picked up random comets in the galaxy, or the occasional weather balloon that has gone off course, or in most instances, radio waves that have been bounced off government satellites. There was never anything of consequence in their department, nothing worth reporting to their superiors. Many times, Gram wondered why he bothered coming to work in the first place. At one point, there was the possibility of something happening a few years ago, but now, the planet was safe from any extraterrestrial threat. 'With the power rangers here, what could go wrong?' he asked himself. As curious as he was about it, he would never question his superiors. After all, if they ever figured out that there was nothing else out there, nothing that could pose a threat, he'd be out of a job.

His thoughts were interrupted as one of the lights on his panel began to flash. He quickly put his feet down, turning his attention to his equipment.

"Cooper, analysis," he called out.

Cooper, his technical specialist, was sitting across the room playing cards on his computer. Cooper closed the screen, turning his attention to his work. "From the looks of it boss, it's a comet… again," he told him.

Gram shook his head in disagreement. "No, it's much too big to be a comet, and it's coming way too fast. Whatever it is, it isn't a comet," he shot back.

"Can you get me a visual?"

"Workin' on it chief," Cooper rushed over to another control panel, pulling up an image of the object coming towards them.

As the screen blinked on, Anderson walked back into the room. The object itself, which it appeared rather small on the screen, where a sphere shape, metallic colored, and was moving at an alarming rate. The mere sight of it was enough to make Anderson drop the sodas, spilling them all over the floor. "Holy crap, what is that?"

"It's coming at about two hundred miles per, and if it stays on it's current course, it will collide with Earth in… twenty seven minutes."

"Red alert guys, this is the real deal. Contact the Captain, its happening."


Blue Bay Harbor, California


"Its getting worse, dad. If this thing keeps up this speed, its going to crash into the Earth in less than six minutes. We have to evacuate the school, get everyone out of here," Cam said frantically, sitting in front of his computer in Ninja Ops.

His father walked over to him, placing his hand on his son's shoulder. "I am aware of the situation Cam, and the students have been sent to a safe place," he said.

"Where? This thing is bigger than Blue Bay Harbor. If I had to take a guess, it'll wipe out most of the state when it hits," he mentioned. "We have to get out of here. I'll tell Tori and the others," he said. He tried to walk away, but his father grabbed his arm.

"With the remaining time, there is no place we can go to be safe. We must trust that the threat will be neutralized," he said.

"By who? We don't have our powers anymore, and even if we did, I don't know if we'd be able to stop this."

"You must have faith my son."

In the past, Cam had always gone to his father for guidance, support and wisdom. Though he didn't always fully understand his father's methods, they were always effective. He questioned his father on giving Shane, Tori and Dustin their wind morphers, but as it turned out, they were the best people for the job. He was unsure about allowing the thunder ninjas into Ninja Ops, but again, he was wrong. His father's wisdom was unparalleled, and he knew he could trust him this time as well.

"If you say so father," he sighed.


Mariner Bay, California


Captain Mitchell walked into a room where several people were sitting at a table. At first glance, all of them appeared to be military, with the exception of Ms. Fairweather-Rawlings, who was wearing her usual white coat.

"I understand its late ladies and gentleman, but we have a serious problem," he motioned for all of them to turn their attention to the monitor across from them. "Approximately thirteen minutes ago, one of the NASADA space ports picked up this object making its way towards Earth. Preliminary reports say its much too big to be a comet, and if it continues on its current heading and doesn't decrease in speed, it will collide with the Earth in less than fifteen minutes," he explained.

"Point of impact?" one of them asked.

"California," Ms. Fairweather-Rawlings said.

"Where is California?"

"All of it. Whatever this thing is, its huge, and impact will destroy everything living thing in California," she said.

"What are our options?" another one of them asked.

"I've spoken to Alan Collins from Bio-Lab, and he is deploying his rangers on the scene. They have the technology to meet this thing in orbit, maybe deflect it away from the Earth, or possibly destroy it," the Captain said.

"So what are we doing to help the situation?"

"I've spoken to Admiral McKnight about the situation. He has authorized me to recruit new rangers in an attempt to stop this… object. Unfortunately, by the time we recruit the rangers, brief them on the situation and how to pilot the zords, it will be too late," he said.

"So you're saying its over? California will be destroyed?"

"Our only hope is to evacuate as many people as possible. The majors of their respective cities have been informed of the situation, and as we speak local police and the Silver Guardians are evacuating their cities. Until we know more about whatever this thing is, it seemed to be the logical course of action," he said.

"So what about us? Shouldn't we be evacuating as well?"

"Based on what we know about the object, the impact will be enough to destroy everything in its path, but the Aqua Base is miles underwater, and we're reasonability sure we're safe here," Mrs. Fairweather-Rawlings told them.

"Fairly sure? What if you're wrong?"

"I've known this woman for a long time, and if she says we're safe, I believe her." Captain Mitchell said.

"So what do we do now?"

"All we can do is wait, and hope for the best," he sighed.


Silver Hills, California


"You sure you know what you're getting us into Collins? If this thing is as big as they say it is, we…" he was cut short as Wes walked over to him.

"I know we're the only shot this city has. It's going to take everything we have to stop it. You with me?"

"You think I'd let you have all the fun?" he asked him.

"QUANTUM POWER!"

"TIME FOR, TIME FORCE!"

In a brilliant flash of light, they're Silver Guardian uniforms were replaced by their ranger uniforms. Wes called for the Strata Cycle, and Eric for the TF Eagle. They nodded at one another quickly, and then climbed onto their respective vehicles, heading towards the object in space. From the moment they left the Earth's atmosphere, they could see the object coming towards them.

"You see what I see?" Wes asked.

"It looks like a ship, its huge."

"I'm going to see if I can open a channel to it, try to talk to them," he said.

"If they wanted to talk, don't you think they would have reached out and touched someone by now?" Eric asked him.

"Its worth a try," he quickly turned to the equipment on the Strata Cycle. "Channel open. Unidentified object, this is Commander Wesley Collins of the Silver Guardians, identify yourself," he said, and then paused, waiting for a response.

There was nothing.

"Repeat, this is Wesley Collins of the Silver Guardians, respond and identify yourself or we will be forced to open fire," he said.

"I don't think they're interested Wes," Eric pointed out.

Suddenly, the object began to pick up speed, moving towards them even faster.

"Um, Wes…"

"It's coming even faster, get out of the way!" Wes screamed.

Both of them did their best to get out of the objects way. Luckily, they were able to get out of its path as it flew by them, on its way to Earth.

"So that's it, we were the last line of defense, and we blew it," Eric said.

"We need to get back, there's no telling how much damage that thing is going to do when it hits."


Reefside, California


Conner stood in the middle of the soccer field, staring up at the object as it came towards him. His first thought was to run, but to where, he wondered? If this thing was as big as he thought it was, going to his room and hiding under the bed wasn't really an option. It was times like this where he wished he still had his powers, maybe then he'd be able to do something about it. Without his dino gem, he was powerless, unable to do anything to stop it. Just then, his bracelet beeped, catching his attention. While his powers were gone, the bracelet Dr. Oliver gave him still worked as a communicator.

"Conner, this is Ethan. Do you read me?"

"Yeah. Do you see this thing?"

"They've been talking about it online since it was spotting. Its going to hit the Earth in less than two minutes,"

"Is there anything we can do?"

"Even if we had our powers, this thing is too big for us. It'll hit the Earth, and the impact alone will be enough to destroy the entire city,"

"What is it?"

"We don't know, no one does. Listen, I wanted to contact you to say, no matter what happens, it was a blast working with you and the others,"

"Thanks man, you too."

Conner still in disbelief as the object kept coming. It was so close now that he couldn't see anything passed it. It was if the object engulfed the entire sky. The wind was blowing out of control, and it was so dark it was difficult to see anything. The other thing that was visible were the lights along the sides of the object.

"I guess this is it," he sighed, closing his eyes.
