Power Rangers Pangaea
Prologue
War. An idea long as time itself. For eons, people of all types of civilizations have fought for various reasons. Territory, ideology, religion, and so on and so forth. The list is seemingly endless. With each conflict, a tide is turned, clouds are parted, and people don't see things in the same light. Such as the case long ago. Before the world was shaped as we know it today by tectonic plates and various other forces, it was known as Pangaea. On this mega continent various animal species roamed and essentially ruled the land. The continent enjoyed a prolonged period of prosperity and peace, both the animals and land living in harmony. However, once the land masses spread apart and humans began to occupy the various landmasses during the late 13th Century and then on, things have been tumultuous to say the least. The divisive acts and practices that have gone on to disrupt the balance of the earth since then have awoken a dormant evil. This evil, led by the vengeful Konan the Great looked prime then to achieve their goal of corrupting the entire planet. Konan waged a personal crusade against all countries, no matter how big or small. He loathed the idea that the world should be in harmony, let alone everything working together in such unity. Through throwing places all over the world out of balance, he and his forces almost succeeded. That would've been the case undoubtedly if not for an extraordinary group of teens that had come from all over the globe. Each teen had come from a different part of the world, with them a different set of abilities, skills, personalities, and powers. With their combined might, the group was able to defeat Konan and his forces and banish him back to his dormant state. Now, it is the 21st Century and unbeknownst to most people, Konan's dormant and catatonic state won't be the case for long.
Current Day- The Cave Without a Name, Texas
It was getting late. There weren't as many visitors that there'd been earlier in the day, and this was surely archeologist Dr. Ray Desmond's favorite time of the day, or night rather as the stars were bright. And not just because he was currently stationed in Texas either. To an archeologist, the day was probably the most ideal time to go on an exploration or a dig. Well to his credit, Dr. Desmond was a night owl, whether it was a potential dig or just scrolling through files on his computer on flora and fauna of the past for research. Tonight, he felt provoked to do the former, what with no tourists and the silence and all. He briskly closed the screen on his laptop and entered a passcode, swinging a pair of gates open, leading him into the catacombs of the cave. He walked down into a central cave that stationed a large computer along with various monitors of cities and countries all over the world. Desmond promptly took a quick glance at the screens before grabbing a headlight along with his cell phone before heading off to explore the cave for a bit. What Desmond didn't notice however, was periodic sudden red flashes with the word 'ALERT' in white letters appear on every screen in the room. He had to be in the cave for several hours, his discoveries had been pertinent to his research on the former super-continent Pangaea and to be honest he was pleased with his discovery. What he wasn't pleased with was the resounding alarm that had he'd been greeted to after his dig. The alarms in the cave blared, almost knocking him off of his feet because he was startled. Desmond recovered and proceeded to answer an incoming call from a colleague in Antarctica, one who was currently researching the effects of global warming on the environment.
"Desmond." He replied quickly, adjusting himself in order for his colleague to see him clearly.
"Doctor, we have an issue here! It's the strangest thing you've ever seen! We're getting a strange energy signature in the area. We're completely in the dark as to where the energy is coming from or where it's coming from!" He panicked, quickly making rapid glances back and forth between the chaotic situation unfolding.
"Doctor Jones, please. Try to calm down. Explain the situation to me one more time." Desmond stated calmly, trying to survey the scene from the limited view of the camera.
"It's a large energy signature. However, it doesn't read like nuclear energy or like any other type of energy I've ever seen. Not heat, not electrical. It's…It's getting larger by the moment!" Dr. Jones proclaimed, eyes wide.
"Alright, let me see what I can do for you." Came Desmond's quick reply as he began to type away at his computer. "Tell me, have you checked in with the military? I know it would be crazy to think that any type of tests would be going on, but we can't leave any stones unturned." Desmond said before pulling up his research.
"As far as we know, none. No exercises have been done by any-" Jones said before being cut off by a rumbling. "The ice! It's breaking!" He half yelled, watching as people scrambled by. The rumbling then stopped, only to cover the entire area with a purple light mixed with a hue of black.
As researchers and scientists alike were enthralled by the sight, Desmond looked through his notes, and sure enough he'd read all the signs. As he opened his mouth to warn his colleague, a voice boomed from the crevice that was created.
"Finally, After all this time! I am free! This world will once again feel the wrath of Konan!" Konan declared, before he manifested in an ethereal form and darted off into the sky.
"Wrath?" Dr. Jones questioned. "Dr. Desmond, do you have any idea of what we're dealing with here?" Jones asked, looking off into the direction Konan flew before looking back at the screen.
"Nothing good…" Desmond trailed off, before rising from the table, almost excitedly. He'd looked across from the computer into a large stone table with various engravings of animals. The seven engravings also contained a stone in that engraving's color. "But do not worry my friend. I have our solution. Keep me updated." Desmond replied, promptly hanging up before sliding over to the stone table. He looked over to his notes once more looking for the key to releasing the stones so that they could choose their masters. He was aware of the threat the world faced, but he was surely unprepared for it. Before he found the key, he realized that there was another friend who was much more suited to not only train, but to also keep these future heroes in line. He quickly sent an email to a close friend and stressed its urgency and necessity. He shortly thereafter sighed.
"It is time. It has been eons since they've been needed. But now, more than ever the world needs them. With this in mind… I summon these stones to find those worthy to have bestowed upon them power. The power of the Power Rangers!"
At the sound of his voice, the stones spread in a plethora of directions. "Good luck new Rangers. The world needs you.
Alice, a young promising archeologist located in California has received the email from Dr. Desmond from her station in Los Angeles. She gleefully looks over her surroundings as she whistled for her assistant to indulge her. Shortly after a large animal came to her side; A large cross breed with the qualities of both a dog and a polar bear. "It is time my dear Delia. The Rangers have returned…."
This is just the prologue so yeah. But this will be a SYOR fic. So, I'll put the apps for both Rangers and I'll need an extra ally along with some villains, so they'll have an app too once I get the Rangers set. I'll be accepting six rangers. Three guys, three girls. My OC will take the mantle of the Blue Ranger, I'll have his app below too. So, I hope I get some interest from you guys. I have to set a couple of rules of course.
I'm hoping for each ranger to be from a different country. I guess I'll be okay with only two being from the same place. This is just so I get a diverse cast. I want them to also be interesting and not one dimensional. So no mary-stu or gary-stu characters.
There are seven rangers and the colors are as follows:
Red
Blue (Taken by my OC)
Yellow
Green
Silver
Pink
Gold
Of course, no two rangers can have the same Spirit Animal.
I'm limiting only one Ranger submission per character, however, you can submit as many villains and extras as you want. They'll be used throughout the series.
With submissions, I'd prefer them to be by PM, that way your characters are a surprise to one another, but you can review if that's the only way.
Above all else, have fun with this app! Thanks for even reading!
Without Further Ado, Here's the Ranger app and I'll get into the other apps when I get the full cast of Rangers.
