Title: Power Rangers: Samurai Storm
Author: GenerationX7
Summary: A spirit of a samurai warrior from Feudal Japan is ressurected. His pact with the demons make him a threat to the Earth. Only three decendants of samurai warriors can defend the Earth as Power Rangers.
Author's Note: This was originally one of my ideas for Power Rangers: Spirit Guardians. Now it's something different. Enjoy it. Oh and by the way. This has a storm theme and a samurai theme. Close to Power Rangers Ninja Storm, but no academy for the Rangers to train at.
Chapter 1: Ressurection
Hundreds of years ago. When Japan was in a state of constant war, a samurai known as Nobunaga Oda tried to conquer Japan. He made a pact with the demons and ultimately failed. Three samurai stopped him and defeated him. Present day, there is a prophecy that the decendants of the three samurai will stop Oda again, when he awakens from his grave. That day is here and the three decendants must now protect the Earth, instead of just Japan.
In the deepest part of a Shinto Temple in the mountains outside of Tokyo, Japan. A tomb sat. This tomb housed the body of the infamous Nobunaga Oda. Scientists were standing in front of it and were wondering if they should open it soon or wait later.

Meanwhile, in the United States, a Asian boy around the age of eighteen walked into a Japanese style building, after climbing a large flight of steps. He had raven black hair and dark brown eyes. His name was Takeshi Juno. Takeshi was going to his first day as a Uzuki Clan member. The clan was a decending clan of samurai warriors. They've kept their training in the ways of Bushido, despite samurai becoming extinct in the Meiji Era. His father was the Sensei of the Japanese Uzuki Clan division and he's heard that the Sensei here was the one who founded it in the United States. But that's what Takeshi has heard. Takeshi enters the living quarters, which is a Feudal Japan castle. The dojo was behind the castle. Takeshi finds a Asian woman his age is standing by the backwall of the lobby.
"Can I help you?" she asked.
"Yeah, I'm trying to find the Grand Master. I'm new here. The name is Takeshi Juno."
"Oh Takeshi-San, nice to meet you." she shakes Takeshi's hand. "I'm Megumi "Jade" Takayama."
"Pleasure is all mine." replied Takeshi.
"You can find the Grand Master in the dojo. Today's training should be over soon." Takeshi thanked Jade and walked to the dojo. He waited outside as training was finishing up. Inside was a Asian male in his mid fifties. He's the newly appointed Grand Master, Akuma Hido. He oversaw the training that the Sensei, Aaron Kaiser, did with the students. Aaron ended training and Akuma dismissed the students. Takeshi entered the dojo as the students began to leave.
"Ah isn't my grandson here to join the clan." said Akuma. Akuma is actually Takeshi's grandfather. Hence the main reason why Takeshi is here in the first place.
"Yes I am grandpa." replied Takeshi. "I've finally made it."
Akuma got up, walked to his grandson and hugged him. "Welcome Takeshi. Aaron, could you please show him to his room in the castle?"
"With pleasure Grand Master. Come on kid."

The scientists from before were in the middle of opening Oda's tomb. A couple of them got some bad vibes.
"Maybe we shouldn't be doing this."
Just then a earthquake opened the tomb and a black ball of energy flew out it. The ball flew all the way to the United States and formed a Feudal Japan style castle in the forests on top of a mountain. Nobunaga Oda himself appeared in the deepest part of the castle, sitting in a meditative like sit. In front of him is a horde of Japanese demons.
"Send some of my warriors to send a clear message to this planet." said Oda. "Let the people know that Nobunaga Oda has returned and he shall conquer the Earth."
Nearby several skeletons wearing samurai armor wrecked havoc on the nearby city of Eagle Bay. People screamed as they ran from the warriors. The leader of these samurai was a man dressed in samurai armor, named Shogun. The skeletons are know as Blades.
"Destroy everything in sight!" Shogun orders.

Akuma was in a state of deep meditation, until the images of what Oda is doing in the city filled his mind. He awoke in horror. "It's time. I never thought it would come to this."
He looked to the room off to the side of his meditation chambers in the castle. Aaron was in there. "Aaron! Bring out the black box with the dragon!"
Aaron was shocked to hear of the black box with a gold dragon on it. He had to make sure. "Are you sure? It's time to call upon them now?"
"Yes Aaron, just get the box. I already have the chosen three picked out."

Takeshi met with two of his fellow students in the clan. One was a Caucasion male with brown hair in a mullet. He had on a yellow gi top and black samurai gi pants with a black belt around his waist. The other is a blonde haired female wearing a blue karate gi and a black belt around her waist. She had let her hair out if it's pony tail as she took a drink of water from a water bottle. The male was named Jeff and the other is named Samantha. Sam is nick named Ice Princess, because at heart she is nice to people and animals. ON top she doesn't want to date any guy in the clan. I guess her heart's somewhere else. Unless she wants to be the kind of person, who won't open up to her closest friends.
"So, you're new here, uh?" Jeff asks.
"Yeah, hey what's with her?" asked Takeshi.
Sam glares at Takeshi. Jeff decides to asnwer before she attacks Takeshi for no apparent reason. "She's gentle on the inside, ice cold on the oustide. We don't understand her much either. She only talks when she feels like it."
Aaron walked around the corner to the three. "Grand Master wants to see you guys right away."
The three never needed to ask why the Grand Master wanted to see them. They just did it.
---
Akuma finished explaining to the three on the situation. They could hardly believe their Grand Master. Takeshi broke the silence. "I thought Nobunaga Oda killed himself in a suicide ritual."
"That's what they would have you think, but no one was going to believe that a famous samurai warrior sold his soul to the demons." replied Akuma. "Aaron, show them what's inside the box."
Aaron opened the box and three handheld devices are shown. Each one is red, blue or yellow. Each one has a laser scanner like what you'd find at a grocery store to read bar codes, on each one. Aaron handed them out to the three. Takeshi got the red one, Samantha got the blue and Jeff got the yellow one. "These are your Samurai Morphers. Just shout out 'Eye of the Storm, Ranger form' and you'll morph as Power Rangers."
"Are you guys ready for this?" Takeshi asks his fellow soon to be Power Rangers.
"We better do it before it's too late." replied Jeff.
"Let's do this." Sam says for the first time ever since Takeshi has arrived.
"Eye of the Storm, Ranger form!" A a red, blue or yellow energy bar code circle's the Rangers's right hand. The Ranger slides this bar code across the scanner as a aura of enegry engulfs the Ranger. They morph from this aura of energy. Their morphed states are their respective colors with a gold hurricane symbol on their chests. The visors on their helmets are just a big black line across the front half of the helmet. Only the visors have a certain pattern to them. Jeff's visor is in a zig zag pattern, to represent lightning or thunder. Samantha's visor is a wavy pattern to represent water. Takeshi's is just a big black line with no pattern.
Then three weapons materialized in their hands. Takeshi holds a red double sided naginata, which looks like a Swallow type weapon..
"That is the Gale Blade. Use it well Takeshi." said Akuma. He turns to Samantha as she holds a long yari spear in her hands, the three blades are composed of ice.
"That is the Ice Edge Spear, Samantha. Though your heart is pure and gentle, your attitude is cold as ice. Hence your weapon uses ice magic. I hope you will be more open to others than you are now."
Finally Jeff held his weapon, a yellow sword whip. "That is the Thunder Snake Sword. It can be used like a whip and will strike down enemies with it's lightning attacks. You can hold these weapons together to combine the magic infused in them. For together, they can cause massive amounts of damage. Good luck Rangers"

The Blades have pretty much caused a lot of damage, but no deaths or injuries. Shogun continued to bark orders as the Blades caused chaos. Until the Gale Blade sliced across the chest of a Blade. Sparks flew as the Blade hit the ground and vanished in mist. Shogun saw the three Rangers.
"Who the hell are you?" he asks.
"We're the Power Rangers and you're going down!" Takeshi replies and the Rangers rush into battle. Takeshi begins slashing away at the Blades. Then when he became overwhelmed he used the wind magic inside fused with his weapon. "Gale Whirlwind!"
Takeshi spun around in a circle and a tornado formed, which destroyed the Blades he was fighting. Their bony bodies flew everywhere.
"Let's see what my weapon can do." said Samantha after watching Takeshi's display of magic. "Eternal Freeze!"
She strikes her group of Blades with the spear and they all turn to ice statues. Then she clicks her fingers and they shatter into pieces instantly. As if they were frozen with liquid nitrogen.
"Mine turn!" Jeff shouts and he uses his spear whip. Every time he swings it, it acts like a whip instead of a spear. The weapon strikes down the Blades and electricutes them. "Awesome!"
The three Rangers stood in front of Shogun. Takeshi steps forward. "I don't know who you are but the only way you'll take this city and the world, is over our dea corpses."
"Your proposal is acceptable." Shogun fires lightning from his hand and that strikes the Rangers. The Rangers hit the ground and stand back up.
"We can't let them win Takeshi!" Jeff shouts.
"You're right." Takeshi then hold his weapon off to the side. "Let's combine them!"
Jeff placed his weapon right in front of Takeshi's. Samantha leaps onto their shoulders and places her weapon in front of Jeff's. "Thunderstorm! FIRE!"
Wind, water and thunder all gathered into one blast. The blast strikes Shogun in the chest and destroys him.

Oda was upset to see his general get defeated. He pulls out a scroll and read the text in Japanese. As he does, the Japanese text glows purple. Back at the city, the text ressurects Shogun and then makes him grow.
"I think we need some help here guys!" Takeshi says as they stare at the large Shogun.
"Call on the Samurai Zords Takeshi!" Akuma yells from his communicator. Takeshi, Samantha and Jeff hear the communication too.
"We need the Samurai Zords now!" the Rangers shout and three animal robots appear. They are a red Japanese dragon with a red whisker on each side of it's nose, a blue crab and a yellow bison. The Rangers leap into their respective Zords. Takeshi decides to test his Zord.
"Wind Dragon! Warrior Mode!" the Wind Dragon transforms into a robot, with a katana for a weapon. The Wind Dragon fights with Shogun, but gets pummeled. The Water Crab shoots bubbles out of it's mouth, which hits Shogun in the chest area. Finally Thunder Bison shoots lightning from it's horns. This makes Shogun to roll on the ground before getting back up.
"You'll pay for that!"
"Let's form the Bushido Megazord guys!" Takeshi orders and puts in a coin into a slot. Then he turns a wheel. Jeff and Samantha do the same. These coins are used to combine the Zords into a Megazord. The Wind Dragon stays in warrior mode, the water crab forms the chest armor and arm guards for the Megazord. The Thunder Bison forms the leg guards, waist armor and the helmet. The Bushido Megazord's main weapon is a sword that look exactly like the weapon that Inu Yasha uses in the anime Inu Yasha.
"Let's finish him off!" Takeshi shouts and presses a button. "WIND SLASH NOW!"
The sword is raised above the Megazord's head and finally it brings the sword down. Three slashes of white light cut the ground as they travel to Shogun. Shogun is destroyed by the white light.
---
Inside Oda's castle, Oda lets out a scream of pure rage. Shogun was defeated by the Power Rangers.
---
The Rangers stood inside the command center, called Eagle's Eye. Kind've like Ninja Ops for the Ninja Storm Rangers, but this one has more equipment. Akuma congratulated them on their first victory.
"Congratulations Rangers, but the worst is not over yet." said Akuma. "Nobunaga Oda will try again. We must stay alert until his reign of terror ends."
Author's Comment: The Thunder Snake Sword is similar to Ivy's from the Soul Calibur series. Just wanted you to know. For the Megazord's weapon, the final attack and the weapon itself is Inu Yasha's weapon. If you have ever seen Inu Yasha, then you would know. The final attack is the Wind Scar attack and I've been thinking of using the Backlash Wave attack. Maybe change it's name to the Reflection Slash. As for the clan, they live in a Japanese castle and train in the dojo. There is no academy in this story, but they still train young adults and teens to protect Earth. I'm thinking that two future Rangers will come from the Wind and Thunder Ninja Academies, but have no clue how they would get their morphers. One last thing, the morphers are based off of the digitizers from the show Digimon. I'm using the Spirit Evolution sequence from the fourth Digimon series. I think it's the fourth Digimon series. It's the one when the kids tranform into their own Digimon and collect spirits.
