What Power Rangers Megaforce Should Have Been

by Darth Fanfic

Title says it all.

1. Chapter 1

(NOTE: Before I get into this, let me clear some things up. If you like this season great more power to you! But for me, Power Rangers Megaforce is the biggest dissapointment of my childhood since the Star Wars prequels. From making up random ranger powers that no fan of Power Rangers that doesn't know about Super Sentai would understand, to the brief, TWO MINUTE Legendary Battle. Megaforce is just a mess. So messy in fact that I really wanted to make this fanfiction to fix things, "WHAT POWER RANGERS MEGAFORCE SHOULD HAVE BEEN."By the way there's not going to be any Super Megaforce for my version, it's just going to be Megaforce. It's going to be twenty, tightly focused episodes instead of forty, lazy,slapped together episodes that we actually ended up getting.)

Episode 1 - Battle of Legends

We open in space as we see a familiar looking Megaship flying by. (Yes it's the Astro Megaship Mk II)

We than cut to inside the Megaship as we see it is piloted by no other than Andros. (Now here's a little recap of what Andros has been up to. Since the events of "Forever Red", Andros has been doing yearly galactic checkups around the galaxy to ensure that all is right with the world- erm, galaxy. That way we don't have ANOTHER attempted alien invasion.)

As we hold on Andros we than hear a familiar voice call Andros' name.

Zhane: "Andros, you do realize you have the most boring hobbies ever?"

Andros: "What, you're telling me you don't like doing a little scouting mission?"

Zhane: "I think I'd prefer going head to head with Dark Specter."

Andros shakes his head amused by Zhanes enthusiasm.

Andros: "Hey I didn't ask you to come, you volunteered."

Zhane: "That's because I knew you'd be bored out of your mind, and that's probably the worst fate any person could endure."

Andros' attitude quickly changes as he conveys a sense of wanting to return home.

Zhane: "Andros it's been ten years since that little fiasco with the Machine Empire. I think threats from space are over."

Andros: "Lothor came not long after the Machine Empire."

Zhane: "Yeah, and there was a team of rangers that stopped him. There will always be a team of rangers to take up the mantle and protect the Earth."

Andros: "You're right. What do you say we finish scouting this quadrant and go home?"

Zhane: "Alright, I've been dying to get back to KO-35!"

Andros: "No. Not KO-35. Earth."

Zhane is a little taken back by his answer, but ultimately understands the reason why he wants to go back to Earth. While a rangers duty is to protect people and save the world the one thing Andros keeps a watchful eye over from space isn't Earth. It's Ashley.

Zhane: "Alright, Earth's pretty cool too!"

Andros than gets a big smile on his face.

This moment of joy is crushed however, as we than see the ship start to shake.

Zhane: "What was that?!"

Andros: "We're under attack. Alpha Mega Lasers online!"

Alpha: "Aye yai yai yai yai!"

Cut outside as we see an Armada of ships firing at the Megaship.

Andros maneuvers around the Armada and returns fire taking down a few ships himself. However, it's only a matter of being outnumbered as a shot from what seems to be the Command ship knocks the Mega Lasers offline.

The Megaship is than caught in a tractor beam.

Zhane: "We stopped."

D.E.C.A.: "I am detecting boarding parties."

Andros and Zhane look to each other and hurry to the disturbance.

As they arrive they are greeted by a batallion of X-Borgs.

Andros: "Still wanna fight Dark Specter?"

Zhane: "Scouting missions aren't all that bad."

Andros: "Ready?"

Zhane nods.

Andros/Zhane: "Let's Rocket!"

The two Space Rangers face off againt the X-Borgs and manage to cut down several of them.

Andros: "Spiral Saber!"

Andros cuts down a few more X-Borgs.

Zhane: "Super Silverizer!"

Zhane fires on a squad than proceeds to cut more of them down.

The two than work in unison and cut down another squad.

However, as good as the fight they put up is, again, it's just a matter of them being outnumbered more than anything else.

The two are than knocked back and forced to the ground by the X-Borgs.

A female creature than appears through the smoke and addresses the two.

Levira: "So you're the ones who have been spoiling our Emperor's day."

Zhane: "Yeah we have a knack for that."

Andros: "Who are you?"

Levira: "I am Levira. Loyal servant of Emperor Mavro, and your destructor."

Andros: "Not today. D.E.C.A. open the air lock!"

The air lock is opened and the X-Borgs, as well as Levira, are sucked out into space.

As Levira is about to be sucked out however, she puts a tracer on the ships hull.

Andros: "D.E.C.A. get us out of here! Set a course for Earth."

They're able to escape the massive fleet. Levira is picked up by the Command Ship and brought before Emperor Mavro.

Emperor Mavro: "How could you let them escape?!"

Levira: "I'm sorry. Forgive me Emperor."

Emperor Mavro: "Silence! If you can't handle two humans, how can I expect you to lead an army?!"

Levira: "I swear to you, it will not happen again."

Emperor Mavro: "At least we agree on something."

The Emperor gestures for his henchman Argus to deal with Levira.

Levira: "Wait Emperor! I can still be of some use."

Emperor Mavro: "What could you possibly have to offer that could be of use to me?"

Levira: "I know where they're going. I placed a tracer on their ship before they escaped."

Levira than hands the Emperor a pad with the coordinates the Megaship traveled to.

Emperor Mavro: "No this can't be! They're headed for...Earth."

Cut back to the Megaship as we see Andros land the ship on Earth.

Cut to the bridge of the Megaship

Zhane: "Home sweet home right?"

Andros: "We don't have time to waste. We need to make a few calls."

As the two travel towards the exit hatch, Zhane becomes aware of a beeping sound.

Zhane finds the tracer Levira had left and calls to Andros.

Zhane: "You're gonna have to make a few more calls."

Andros than gets on a phone to call an old friend.

Cut to Reefside Highschool.

Cut to Dr. Tommy Oliver teaching a class about to end.

The bell rings and the students proceed to leave.

Tommy: "Remember guys, study for your test on fossils tommorow."

As students leave the class, Tommy's cell phone rings.

Tommy: "Hello."

Cut to a sign that reads "The Conner McKnight Soccer Camp" as we see a jeep pull up in front of it.

Tommy gets out and walks through the camp noticing the various kids playing soccer.

Smiling, Tommy sees his old pupil Conner McKnight instructing kids on playing soccer.

Conner looks up, sees his old mentor, and leaves to go greet Tommy.

Conner: "Dr. O!"

Conner shakes Tommy's hand.

Tommy: "Conner! How've you been?"

Conner: "Great! I've got my own soccer camp up and running."

Tommy: "I see that. You've made a name for yourself."

Conner: "Yeah. Before you know it I'll have soccer camps all over the country."

Tommy smiles.

Conner: "But that's not the reason you're here is it?"

Tommy's smile quickly dissipates.

Conner than walks with Tommy and whispers to him.

Conner: "What's wrong? Is it Mesogog? Is he back?"

Tommy: "Worse."

Cut back to the Armada.

Argus: "What is it Emperor? Why do you think this Earth will be a problem? It can't be that different from the other thousand planets we've conquered."

Emperor Mavro: "You fool!"

Mavro takes a second to explain.

Emperor Mavro: "This...Earth was responsible for the downfall of the Machine Empire, and the destruction of Dark Specter and that imbecile Lothor. All because of those...Power Rangers!"

Argus: "So they have defeated weak and simple minded fools. They have never faced the power and brilliance of you, my Emperor.

Levira: "Argus is right. Those Earthlings don't stand a chance against the power of this Armada."

At this moment we are intoduced to the Emperor's two sons, Vrak and Vekar.

Vekar: "Father, the Machine Empire was a very formidable force. You even said once how you'd hate to challenge their power."

Vrak: "Yes so formidable in fact that they were all destroyed by a band of multicolored misfits. Father, why don't you show Earth the power of a real Empire?!"

Vekar: "Hold on there Vrak! Don't try to test Father! Unless you want this entire Armada to crumble like the Machine Empire!"

Vrak: "You'd better be quiet, unless you'd like to join them."

Emperor Mavro: "Silence! Enough of this bickering you two! I will not have my authority challenged! I will decide our course of action."

Vrak: "Of course father, forgive us."

Silence fills the room until Mavro finally speaks.

Emperor Mavro: "Prepare for invasion."

Cut back to Tommy's jeep as we see he has picked up the other Dino Rangers.

Ethan: "So Dr. O you're telling us than an entire alien armada is on their way here right now to invade Earth!"

Tommy: "That's right, and we're the only ones that can stop them."

Kira: "Dr. O, how can the five of us stop them?! Besides I'm the only one who still has their Ranger powers."

Trent: "I'm with Kira. I mean fighting dinosaurs is one thing, but this is totally different."

Tommy: "I've already found a way to restore your powers."

Tommy than looks down to a tiny box in his jacket.

Tommy: "One more thing...it's not just the the five of us."

Tommy's jeep than goes in the N.A.S.A.D.A. space station and pulls into a hanger where the Astro Megaship is being housed.

Inside the hanger we see the Rescue Jeep with the Lightspeed Rangers gathered. As well as Wes and Eric coming out of their car, and T.J. and Justin coming out of Lightning Cruiser and Storm Blaster.

Tommy and the Dino Rangers get out of the jeep and greet the other Rangers.

Tommy: "Glad you could make it everyone."

Joel: "Yeah, no problem."

Eric: "What is it this time, your call sounded urgent."

T.J.: "What, did someone build another Serpentera?"

Andros: "No this is worse than ten Serpenteras."

Zhane: "Long story short, while Andros and I were patrolling in space, we came across a massive alien fleet, and now they're on their way here to conquer Earth"

Tommy: "And this is the reason why you've all been gathered here. We're going to make a stand."

Conner: "Dr. O, if the fleet's as big as you say it is, it's going to take a lot more seventeen Rangers to beat them."

Tommy: "You're right Conner...it's gonna take an army of Rangers."

We than have sort of a montage of various Rangers getting in contact with other Ranger teams.

Carter goes to recruit the Wild Force Rangers.

The jeep pulls up to a veterinarian hospital.

Carter comes in and is greeted by Cole.

Cole: "Carter! Good to see you again."

Carter: "Good to see you too Cole, but we have a problem."

We than cut to a school right in the middle of dismissal.

We see Alyssa coming out of the school and spot the Rescue Jeep in the distance with the other Wild Force Rangers inside.

Cole nods to her and Alyssa does the same.

We than cut to a surf shop which Tori is working at.

We see Kira walk in and greet Tori.

Kira: "Tori!"

Tori: "Kira?! What's up?"

Kira holds up her arm revealing her Dino bracelet.

Tori immediately understands what she means and nods to Kira.

Cut to space as we see the Astro Megaship flying by.

Cut to inside as we see Andros piloting the ship.

Andros: "Alright Alpha, set a course for Miranoi, than Triforia and Aquitar. Than, will finish with Eltar."

Alpha: "No problem Andros. Aye yai yai, this is too much for my circuits."

Cut back to the hanger as we see Wes taking his kit out to contact his fellow Rangers in the future.

Trip answers Wes' call.

Trip: "Hey Wes!"

Wes: "Hey Trip. Listen, we have a big problem here. We need everyone."

Trip: "It really is that bad isn't it? Okay, I'll gather the others and we'll be there soon."

Tommy than comes behind Wes.

Tommy: "Wait, these rangers can time travel right?"

Wes: "Yeah."

Tommy: "I have a few stops they can make."

Cut over to Conner with the other Dino rangers.

Conner stairs at his Dino Gem that Tommy gave to each of them.

Conner walks over to talk to Tommy.

Wes: "How did he get back there?"

Tommy: "It's a long story."

Conner: "Dr.O?"

Tommy: "What is it Conner?"

Conner: "You said you had a way to restore our powers. So far all I've done is stare at this antique."

Tommy: "You're right. Follow me."

Conner follows Tommy over to the other Dino Rangers.

Tommy than reaches into his jacket and pulls out the box from earlier.

Tommy: "This is what'll restore your powers."

Conner: "Wow! A nice, small, shiny box. Incredible."

Tommy smiles than takes out the object in the box. It is Tommy's part of the Zeo Crystal.

Tommy: "I've always known that this would come in handy one day."

Trent: "What is it?"

Tommy: "It's my part of the Zeo Crystal."

Ethan: "And how is it gonna restore our powers?"

Tommy: "By draining it's energy. It'll bring your powers back up to full strength."

Trent: "Wait Dr. O. How are you gonna morph if your powers are gone?"

Tommy: "You don't think I was just two colors, do you?"

Tommy than takes his old Mighty Morphin Era morpher, with the Tiger Zord Power Coin in the center, out of his jacket.

Just than we hear the sound of automobiles driving by.

The remaining rangers in the hanger all look out and are greeted by various cars each holding rangers inside.

The Rescue Jeep shows up with Carter and the Wild Force Rangers inside.

Kira and Tori show up with the other Ninja Storm Rangers as well as Dominic.

A few more cars than show up. Two of which have the Shiba family insignia on the door. Than another jeep with the Overdrive Rangers inside.

Lightning Cruiser shows up with T.J. and Cassie inside.

Storm Blaster shows up with Justin, Carlos, and Ashley.

The two cars with the Shiba Insignia on it open revealing the Samurai Rangers, the remaining Jungle Fury Rangers, and the RPM Rangers.

Another car followed by two motorcycles arrive. (Yes two motorcycles. Originally it would be three, keeping with Mystic Force's ending, but unfortunately Peta Rutter who played Udonna passed away in 2010 from a brain tumor. RIP) The Mystic Force Rangers have arrived.

Finally another car arrives carrying Adam, Kat, Tanya, and Rocky.

Tommy leaves the hanger first and goes to greet his old friends. While the Dino Rangers chat it up with the Ninja Storm Rangers.

Conner: "Shane, Tori, Dustin! How's it been."

Dustin: "Great man."

Ethan: "Wait. No offense or anything, ninja powers all cool and everything, but I thought you guys lost your powers."

Shane: "Well so did we, but than Tori introduced us to a friend who was able to restore them."

Ethan: "A friend?"

Just than a flash of light appears. It's our favorite glowing, exposition giving knight. The Sentinel Knight.

Sentinel Knight: "I believe I can explain. I used my powers to restore the powers of the Ninja Storm Rangers."

Dax: "Makes sense to me!"

They all share a laugh, than we cut over to Tommy.

Tommy: "Glad you could all make it."

Adam: "What you thought we were gonna let you do this alone?"

Rocky: "It just like old times. Right Tommy?"

Kat than notices a look in Tommy's face.

Kat: "Tommy, what's wrong?"

Tommy: "I was hoping the others could make it. It's just not the same without them."

At that moment three motorcycles catch the eyes of our old friends.

As the motorcycles pull in, they remove their helmets one at a time. Revealing Jason, Zack, and Kimberly.(Again as we all know Trini would be in this shot, but unfortunately Thuy Trang passed away in a car crash in 2001. So while it would be amazing to see the entire original cast back together, that unfortunately can't happen. RIP)

Zack: "Tommy! You didn't think we were gonna let you do it without the originals. Did you?"

Jason: "Sorry we're late, but you know how we like to make an entrance."

Jason than walks up to Tommy and shakes his hand.

Jason: "Long time no see, bro."

Tommy nods and leads all the other rangers into the hanger.

Tommy than addresses the other rangers from a stand.

Tommy: "Thank you all for coming. Most of you already know why you're here. Earth is in danger once again, and it's going to take a lot more than a single team to beat this new threat. It's going to take all of us. Fighting as one. That's the only way we can win.

Jason: "He's right everyone."

Jason than walks on the stand, and stands next to Tommy.

Jason: "I know some of us have never met. I know many of you probably wish you could leave your lives as Rangers behind. But when the Earth's in danger, it's up to the Power Rangers to step up and defend it."

Silence than fills the room.

Jason: "So, who's ready to step up?"

Every single Ranger steps forward.

Jason and Tommy smile at their confidence and bravery.

Cut back to the Armada.

Another henchman, Damaras, addresses Emperor Mavro.

Damaras: "Sir, we are less than an hour away from Earth."

Emperor Mavro: "Excellent! The Earthlings will finally feel the wrath of the Armada! And not even their precious Power Rangers will be able to stop us!"

Cut back to the N.A.S.A.D.A. Space port as we see the Astro Megaship return.

The hatch opens and out walks Andros and Zhane as well as some old friends.

The Lost Galaxy Rangers walk out. Followed by the Alien Rangers, Trey of Triforia, the Phantom Ranger, the Blue Centurion, and of course, Billy.

The Mighty Morphin and Zeo Rangers run over to greet Billy.

Kimberly: "Billy!"

Zack: "Welcome back man!"

Jason: "How was Aquitar?"

Billy: "Wet."

Tommy: "It's good to see you again man. Sorry this reunion can't be longer, but we got work to do."

Billy: "We already know. Andros got us all up to speed."

Tommy: "Than let's get down to it."

At that point a time hole opens in the sky.

Zack: "Billy, you're the smart one. What is that?"

Billy: "I would have to say it's a device or seemingly harmless collection of objects, either real or digital, that absorb particles of time unless one is wary enough to keep a strong sense of time passed."

They all look at Billy in confusion.

Billy: "It's a time hole."

Ethan: "A time hole! Shouldn't we all be running for cover?"

Wes: "No. It's nothing dangerous."

Kelsey: "Than what is it?"

Wes: "Back up."

Out of the time hole comes the Time Force Rangers, SPD Rangers, Aisha, and Tommy's clone.

Wes: "Guys!"

Wes runs over to greet his old friends.

Conner: "Am I the only one a little freaked that there's two Dr. Os now?"

Tommy: "Don't be, he's my clone."

Tommy walks over to his clone.

Tommy: "You look good."

Tommy#2: "Well I'm you...so yeah!"

Ethan: "I gotta sit down."

Andros: "No time for that. Our sensors just picked up something big."

Eric: "It's the Armada."

Tommy: "Well I think it's time guys."

Jason: "Right. You guys ready?"

Every single ranger nods.

Jason: "Alright than. It's Morphin Time!"

Cut to space as we see the Armada's forces arrive at Earth.

Cut to inside the Command Ship as we see Emperor Mavro addressing his subjects.

Emperor Mavro: "My loyal subjects, today is a historic moment for the people of Earth. For this day marks the moment where Earth finally falls! The Earthlings will count on their precious Power Rangers to save them. We will destroy them as well! Nothing will stand in the Armada's way and the Power Rangers will be no more!"

During Mavro's monologue we see a montage of the Armada invading Earth. Such as buildings being fired at, troops being deployed and walking through the street, and enormous amounts of ships filling the sky.

As we hold on a massive amount of X-Borgs, we see them confronted...by an army of Power Rangers.

We cut to a shot showing all the teams together with Mighty Morphin leading at the head.

Jason: "You guys want to destroy Earth?! You'll have to get through us to do it!"

The X-Borgs all raise their weapons and prepare for battle.

Jason: "Okay Power Rangers, let's do it!"

And so the Legendary Battle begins. Mighty Morphin leads the charge as all the other Power Rangers follow behind them.

The two forces clash with such ferocity you almost get goosebumps at the sight of it.

Cut to a shot Wild Force dragging X-Borgs across the ground. The camera follows this drag to the Overdrive Rangers' battle.

Cut to show the Space and Time Force Rangers fighting X-Borgs with a mixture of blasts and strikes.

Cut to a shot of Wes and Andros teaming up on a squad of X-Borgs.

Andros: "Spiral Saber!"

Wes: "Chrono Saber!"

The Rangers cut down a few more X-Borgs.

Cut to a shot of the Jungle Fury Rangers fighting alongside the Dino Rangers.

Casey: "Junglechucks!"

Conner: "Tyranno Staff!"

Cut to a shot of the Spirit Rangers ganging up on a squad of X-Borgs. The Elephant Ranger stomps sending the X-Borgs into the air. The Bat Ranger flies by and slices the airborne X-Borgs. Than the Shark Ranger, followed by the Phantom Ranger and the Blue Centurion, come in to finish off the squad.

Cut to a shot of the Lightspeed Rangers fighting X-Borgs with the SPD Rangers in the background.

Cut to a shot of Ryan and Eric firing on a squad of X-Borgs.

Ryan: "Titanium Laser!"

Eric: "Quantum Defender!"

As the shots hit the X-Borgs, the RPM Rangers zip by striking the X-Borgs one by one. We follow the RPM Rangers to another part of the battlefield. The RPM Rangers arrive at the scene of Mystic Force's battle.

Cut to a shot of the Zeo and Lost Galaxy Rangers fighting together.

Leo: "Quasar Saber!"

Leo cuts down another X-Borg.

Cut to a shot of the two Turbo Rangers fighting, assisted by the Samurai Rangers.

Jayden/Kevin: "Spin Sword!"

The two slash as T.J. comes in.

T.J.: "Turbo Lightning Sword!"

The strike hits the same squad of X-Borgs as they fall.

Cut to a shot of the Ninja Storm and Alien Rangers working together.

Cut to a shot of Kimberly fighting X-Borgs.

Cut to a shot of Aisha fighting a squad. Than cut to Billy, than Zack.

Cut to a shot of the two Tommys fighting together.

The real Tommy uses the Sword Saba to cut down one X-Borg, than shoots another X-Borg with Saba's laser blasts.

Cut over to the clone as he slices another X-Borg down with the Dragon Dagger, than uses the flute to summon green energy blasts to destroy another squad of X-Borgs.

Cut to a shot of Jason slicing down an X-Borg with his Power Sword.

Jason than looks to the sky and sees a squad of ships firing on them.

The Rangers duck for cover with some shots even hitting the Armada's own soldiers.

The Rangers all gather in the middle of the battlefield.

Jason: "Everyone! We need to combine our powers as one and crush this fleet. Ready?!"

Everyone combines their power as an aura of light surrounds every Ranger. The aura than shoots up into space destroying every ship it passes. As the Command Ship sees the aura approaching their ship, mass panic ensues.

Emperor Mavro: "What is that light?! Get us out of here!"

The Emperor's ship is able to escape, but all other ships are caught in the light and destroyed. Fade to black.

Fade from black as we see a field of unconscious Rangers slowly get up one by one.

All the rangers look around in confusion.

Casey: "What happened?"

Mack: "Did we win?"

Nick: "I think so."

Flynn: "We won!"

Mike: "Yeah, we won!"

As the rangers start celebrating, Tommy comes into frame, who quickly stops the celebration.

Tommy: "We may have won...but it took all the power we had."

Jason: "He's right. Because we used up all the power we had...we can never morph again."

Everyone looks to their various Morphers in depression.

Cut back to space as we see the powers continue to scatter through space. We than see a robotic bird follow the powers and a booming, mysterious voice call out...

"Collect them! For the battle is far from over."

THE END

(NOTE: And so Episode 1 is complete! If you liked this please stick with me as I go through another 19 episodes that gives the Power Ranger fans the season they actually deserved.)
