It has been five months since the defeat of the Umbra Armada's commander Kageros, but that also meant that it had been two months since the disappearance of the Power Rangers Legendary Force, having been reactivated to deal with a threat only to vanish. No one at APEX knew what to make of it, Karasuma was now looking everywhere for them. Little did anyone know that the mysterious white ninja ranger was patrolling the city for the first week the rangers disappeared before she vanished as well. What no one knew was that in the shadow of Kunugigaoka City was a secret academy hidden in plain sight out in the vast forest surrounding the forest, one where the next defenders of the world learn at
"Okay this is it Hiroto, after this you'll be in the top five" Hiroto Maehara said as he held his wooden practice kusarigama and waited. 'I am a Shinobi, I fight learn how to fight and how to sneak. The way of the ninja is my way' he though before exhaling and throwing out the weighted end at a enemy combatant and luckily wrapped it around his training sword and yanked it out of his hand, after that he dropped down into a combat stance and took down his enemy
"Oh yeah" Maehara said
"Think again, if you thought you won, you haven't" the enemy said "Rock Fist!
"SNOW SHURIKEN!"
"SAKURA BREEZE!" two kunoichi shouted dropping down one in a pink trimmed uniform and the other in white
"you're slipping man" a shinobi said showing up
"Yeah, yeah" Maehara said as he used his kusarigama to trip the enemy "Where's Yoshida?"
"I'm right here, Lightning CHARGE!" he shouted ramming into the enemy.
"Tie him up and find the information" Maehara said
"When are you the leader?" Yoshida said
"Just shut it okay?" Maehara said
"Genin Maehara, Kimura, Yoshida, Okano, Kataoka! the Soke would like to see you"
"The grandmaster?" Okano said
"Oh great, Maehara what did you do now?" Kataoka asked
"It wasn't me" Maehara said
"Greeting young Genin" the grandmaster
"Greetings Soke" the group said
"Hard to imagine such as group working together" the grandmaster said
"Is there a reason we're needed here?" Okano asked
"Yes there is, It has appeared" the grandmaster said
"Seriously?" Kataoka asked
"yes finally after five months the Celestrial Ninja Prism has returned" the grandmaster
"And with it the Shinobi Power Shuriken" Maehara said
"Any idea where it is?" Okano asked
"No yet, but we must find it and retrieve the shuriken before Shadogun does" the grandmaster said
"And we can also use it to find more Shinobium" Kataoka said
"Okay for the new guy here, what's Shinobium?" Kimura asked
"We'll fill you in on the way" Maehara said
"Go quickly" the grandmaster said
"Yes sir!" they all shouted
"So what's the deal with Shinobium?" Kimura asked
"It's not sure where it came from, but it's a mythical metal that was first found and used during the Edo period; it is said to have been made by forging a piece of a stone from the heavens into a powerful alloy that allows the user to channel mystical energies through the alloy" Maehara said
"The stone from the heavens was recently discovered to be a massive comet that struck the land centuries ago" Kataoka said
"Anyway in the initial finding of the Shinobi ore was a massive diamond like crystal with seven glowing pieces of Shinobium" Okano
"They later became something call Mahou-shuriken, with them anyone could use the power of seven elements" Yoshida said
"And out of nowhere he came, Shadogun!" Maehara said
"So who is this Shadogun?" Kimura asked
"He is a general for the Umbra Armada who comes from the same system as Bushida and Kitsurono. Anyway he come from the planet Onighoul which willing joined the armada with the promise of the Celestial Prism and Shinobium" Kataoka said
"Plus the Mahou Shuriken" Maehara said
"When the prism first came to earth five years ago Soke managed to remove the Mahou-shuriken and used it power against Shadogun, only for the shuriken to break making the Shinobi Power Shuriken. Then the prism sealed the new shuriken inside itself and took off. Shadogun was recalled and hadn't been seen for ages" Yoshida said
"Only six months ago he stated his intention to return by sending a general of his with five special scrolls" Maehara said
"Trapping the other Power Rangers" Kimura said
"Yeah, however the prism revealed itself five months ago, and luckily I was able to grab a Power Shuriken and used it to help in the fight against Kageros" Kataoka asked
"Okay, so how do we know all the stuff about him being an evil alien shogun warlord linked to the Armada?" Kimura asked
"We work with an organisation dubbed APEX who filled us in" Okano said "They work to protect the city from danger"
"GUYS LOOK!" Yoshida said
"What is that?" Kimura asked
"That is the prism" Okano said "Come on"
"Hinata, wait up!" Kataoka said
"We have to catch up" Maehara said as the others ran after Okano. Soon they found a thing that looked like a large seven pointed crystal shuriken.
"There it is" Okano said running up to it and seeing four lights in it, stopping before the prism seeing that the pink light formed a shuriken with a figure on it
"Whoa" Yoshida said as the other four stopped as the red, yellow and blue lights formed shuriken
"Where are the other three?" Okano asked
"Well I have one so there should have been six" Kataoka said
"So where are they?" Maehara said before a strange noise was heard behind them
"Um what was that?" Yoshida said as he turned around and saw what appeared to be ninjas wearing dark green with grey gloves and wielding bladed staves "What are those?"
"I have no idea" Kataoka said
"My bad, allow me to introduce to you the main foot soldiers for my lord Shadogun, they are the Kagenin" a voice said
"And you are?" Maehara asked
"You can call me Bossuruga and I am one of the Shadow Elements general" Bossuruga said as he walked out of shadows revealing him to be a warrior dressed in gunmetal ninja styled chainmail over top a black ninja uniform and an oni like mask
"Shadow Element Generals?"
"Yes one of us is based off of an element, my element is that of the Air, and I control the Kagenin. Now hand over the Mahou Shuriken will you?"
"I don't think so" Kataoka said as she grabbed her mahou shuriken and held it out while holding her other hand close to her body, in the hand close to her body a four pointed star like device appeared and she inserted the shuriken into the device and spun it "Steel Transformation Jutsu!" she shouted as a white light surrounded her and once it died down she was revealed to be wearing her uniform which consisted of a white dress with grey leggings and thigh high white boots, grey sleeves, white bracers, there was also a sash with a shuriken design with hot pink trim.
"So you are one of the Ninja Steel rangers who defends the Prism and its by-product of Shinobium, also called the Shinobi Alloy!" Bossuruga said
"That's me!" Kataoka said charging in
"Come on guys we should help her" Maehara said performing the same hand gestures as Kataoka making the same device and inserted his shurikne into it and spun the shurikne while saying "Steel Transformation Jutsu!" making a brilliant crimson flame surround him before dissipating revealing his costume which was mostly red with grey sleeves and the same black sash with a red shuriken design
"Come guys" Yoshida said as he, Kimura and Okano did the same
"STEEL TRANSFORMATION JUTSU!" they said turning into rangers themselves, Yoshida and Kimura sporting yellow and blue versions of Maehara suit while Okano had a pink version
"With the power of the ninja, NInja Steel Red!" Maehara shouted
"With the stealth of the ninja Ninja Steel Blue" Kimura shouted
"With the strength of the ninja Ninja Steel Yellow" Yoshida shouted
"With the Spirit of the ninja Ninja Steel White" Kataoka shouted
"With the Speed of the ninja Ninja Steel pink!" Okano shouted
"Ninja Rangers fear no danger POWER RANGERS NINJA STEEL!" they all shouted
"Impressive" Bossuruga said "Indeed it is most impressive that you can access the power of the Shinobium to transform into the next generation on power rangers, too bad it will not help you"
"Think again, Ninja Star Saber" Maehara said as the team drew his blade and slotted in their Mahou Shuriken. "Come on then" he said running forward as the Kagenin who suddenly grabbed knives and charged at them
"Destroy them and retrieve the mahou shurikens" Bossuruga said disappearing in a last of smoke. The Kagenin raced forward, flipping over the rangers, Kataoka and Okano saw this and turned around and slashed at them, Kimura then charged his blade with energy and slashed at the Kagenin making them fly back into the trees. Maehara cut one down before looking and seeing a couple of Kagenin going for the prism. Thinking quickly Maehara performed the flash step to get over there and kicked them in the back before they could ever reach it. Suddenly a scream was heard from Okano
"OKANO!" the others shouted as the Kagenin were trashing her.
"We have to do something" Kimura said
"But what?" Yoshida said
"Get down!" a voice shouted
"Its morphing time: TYRANNOSAURUS! SABERTOOTH TIGER!" two voice shouted as two more power rangers suddenly showed up
"Who are they?" Kimura asked
"I don't know, but at least they're rangers" Maehara said as he used his sword to help the two rangers.
"You guy try to get the prism" Kataoka said
"So you're that mysterious white ranger that my team saw" the tyranno ranger said
"Yes sir" Kataoka said
"Take this!" Okano said pulling out a frog like blaster and firing at the Kagenin who once shot vanished
"And that was the last of them"
"Sir, we need to move that thing to base" Saber said
"I agree, along with these five, they need to meet him and know what we know" Tyranno said
"Very well, but know that I was only helping out until a team could be found"
"I know Natsumi" Tyranno said
"So who are these guys?" Okano asked
"No idea" Maehara said
"so how did it go?" a scientist said
"Not bad Aguri" Natsumi said
"So you finally found a team?" Aguri asked
"Who Yukimura-sensei, what are you doing here?" Yoshida said
"Well you see" Aguri said
"Is that them?" Koro asked as he zipped into the area
"WHOA!" the rangers leapt back and took a stance against this ginat octopus
"Koro!" Aguri said
"Sorry, but it's been months since they went missing" Koro said
"HEY OCTOPUS Don't scare them!" the voice of Tyranno said
"Yeah' we're ninja" Yoshida said
"More like Academic level genin" a voice said
"Soke?" Maehara asked
"Come" the grandmaster said as the team, Koro and Aguri walked into the facility
"So what is this place?" Yoshida asked
"Welcome to the true face APEX, we're an organisation that monitor extraterrestrial and xeno-biological entities and see if they are friendly or not, not to mention we are also the organisation that helps out Power Rangers teams that are active, the last team we worked with was the Power Rangers Legendary Force, only two months ago we asked them to investigate a potential threat only they never got back so we believe them to be KIA; kidnapped in action. So I reached out to the grandmaster of your academy, to see if we can help each other, oh by the way I'm Karasuma, the commander of APEX" Karasuma said "And the first ever red ranger"
"No way" Maehara said "I knew we worked a bit with APEX, but not this section"
"Indeed, now we know about the prism and the Shinobium, so we were asked to recover any and bring them to your blacksmith so they can use them to make Power Shuriken giving you access to new tools and weapons, not to mention zords" Karasuma stated
"What's a zord?" Okano said
"A gigantic mechanical weapon used when things get escalated" Karasuma said
"And the walking calamari?" Yoshida said
"HEY!" Koro said
"An advisor who has seen the true power of the enemy; the Umbra Armada" Karasuma said
"How so?" Kimura asked
"They destroyed my planet and until recently I though the destruction of another race. But I discovered there was hope for that race, the Bushidans" Koro said
"Which brings us to your new foe, Shadogun who we believe is one of the Armada's top generals. Alongside Kageros the two were the best generals Umbraros could ask for, anyway Shadogun was the one who lead the Bushida system campaign" Koro said
"So what do we have to do?" Maehara asked
"We don't have an idea what he wants" The grandmaster said before the alarm roared to live
"It's the Kagenin and oh dear" Koro said
"What is it?" Karasuma asked
"Its Shadogun himself" Koro said
"What?" Karasuma said
"Come on guys" Maehara said leading the new team out
To Be Continued in Forging Shinobi part 2
G'day Guys Grizz here and welcome my friends to Power Rangers Shinobi Alloy! which is my version of Ninja Steel, so the team will be called the Ninja Steel Rangers; but as you can see things are a bit different since the Rangers knew about APEX before hand, but not much, they are training to be ninjas, the main enemy is being revealed in episode one instead of 23, and oh yeah the original team has gone missing and these guys are now taken up the slack. Now I'll do something with this series I didn't last time including an evil ranger team, multiple main megazords and civilains abilities. But I will do some of the same like the relationships, past rangers, epic battles and heartfelt scenes so grab some snacks and enjoy
