The Worst of Times

The world is not what it was. Not from when I was a Ranger. This new group called themselves Warrior Rangers. They came in a battled their foes quickly and without any remorse. They defeated them with in a few months. Faster than any other group before them, and unlike most groups they did not loose their powers. Instead they retained more power.

Quickly the leader of their team, the Black Ranger, seized control as a leader for the world's military forces. They battled enemies of the planet holding them back and keeping themselves as a symbol of unity. Then things changed. The Black Ranger, Maxis, finally decided it was time for him to rule. Instead of protecting the world he and his team decided they wanted to have it.

First they crushed any opposession they might have had. The planet of Triphoria which holds the power of the Gold Zeo Ranger is attacked. Maxis used a weapon to destroy the planets eco system. The citizens of the planet are forced to live in domes and huddled masses as they are used as slave labor. The once great King Trey now is reduced to that of a mockery being set in the largest dome in the stocks. Everyday a torture is done to him starting with the plucking out of his eyes. Maxis believes Trey's powers are gone. From him yes, but not lost.

The next assault went not to outer space, but to a small town in California where a team of heroes known as the Beetleborgs where assaulted. Two of the three members where captured. The third escaped and has been presumed dead by many. She lives. She is in hiding with another who lost his powers long ago. They will be needed soon.

The Third assault went to the stars again, and was one of there most powerful victories: the planet of Edenoi. The lone hero of that planet was the Masked Rider, a great and powerful warrior with multiple powers and abilities. He was arrested and sentenced to Death. I sit now in my apartment watching the horrible deed take place. I only hope there is a way to salvage his powers.

Before his assault on the Planet of Aquitar could happen it was thwarted. The planet residences created a system that would move the planet to another solar system. When the attack was suppose to happen the ships arrived to find nothing but the blackness of space instead of the planet. The ships in the fleet had been counting on Aquitar to provide the resources necessary to provide their way home. Instead many of the ships in the assault force were abandoned and stranded in space. Only a few survived. It was The first and only true defeat of the Warrior Forces in the war.

The next assault again turned Maxis and his other Rangers eyes near Earth. The target was the moon and the colony that lived there. Using the propaganda that my former enemies of Lord Zedd and Rita had returned he assaulted the colony there that had been started by Zhane. The war between the two was a success though heavy cassulties were on both sides; one of them being his Green Ranger, Zobark. Zhane was never found and it remains a mystery to even me what has happened.

The Final battle that took place with Maxis and his new regime on Earth was the assault on the VR Trouper's. The Battle lasted for nearly six months before it the Trouper's were declared dead. No info on whether or not the Troupers had died existed until I received a message six months ago.

The time has finally come. I can not sit and watch the name of a group I took pride in being a member of name be drug through the mud. I sit and watch as a friend of mine is decintigrated. I stare on a they're security Zords march outside of my window and track down offenders. I watch and see that Zedd and Rita's son be placed as the puppet leader of the moon. It is time for heroes and Ranger's to rise up. I will not stand to see this happen any longer. My name is Dr. Thomas Oliver and war has begun.
