Chapter One
All was peaceful on the planet Earth, although in some desert three wandering travelers came upon a secret tomb. Upon entering this tome the travelers spotted an old stone sarcophagus that happened to be guarded by a skeleton. Dismissing the dead skeletal corpse, the travelers pushed the lid of the sarcophagus right off. To their horror evil demonic spirits escaped and quickly flew about before shooting right out of the tomb.
Once outside from their prison the demonic spirits headed towards a city by the name of Mariner Bay. Upon arriving at the quiet city the mischievous spirits began to wreak havoc on innocent citizens of Mariner Bay.
Meanwhile at some type of base, a blonde uniformed woman had just entered an important meeting in the conference room. The service woman stood before the table and watched her commanding officer conversing with some fellow service personnel. The blonde uniformed woman cleared her throat, "Captain…Something's come up."
The captain immediately ceased his conversation and looked at the blonde who gave him a simple nod. Getting her silent message, the captain looked at the service personnel group he was conversing with "We'll finish this later."
The service group quickly gathered their things and departed the room in an orderly manner, once they were gone the blonde woman went over to her captain "Father…They've escaped…" "Are you sure?"
She nodded causing the commanding officer to depart from the conference and to his office with the blonde following. There the captain briskly walked over to his safe and opened it, from inside he brought out four portfolios that are color coded. He then looked to his daughter and held up the folders, "It's time to bring them in."
At a local airstrip located near Mariner Bay, a pilot by the name of Joel Rawlings a.k.a 'The Sky Cowboy' was currently performing in the sky with his aircraft for the audience that had gathered to watch. Upon completion of his performance, Joel began signing some autographs for his fans. While doing this, two men dressed in black suits approached the pilot and his group of adoring fans.
They easily made their through the little crowd and to the performing pilot, one of the suited men tapped Joel on the shoulder "Joel Rawlings?" the sky cowboy ceased his signing and gazed at the suited men with uncertainty, wondering just what are their intentions with him. A few feet from the crowd, the blonde uniformed woman patiently sat in a black car. She rolled down her window and spotted the two suited men leading Joel towards the vehicle. The service woman closed Joel's green portfolio and moved onto the next one that's marked in yellow.
Minutes later in the mountains located right outside Mariner Bay, a young athletic woman with curly brown hair is currently climbing the side of a cliff. As she reached the top of the cliff, the curly brunette was greeted by the sight of two black suited men.
"Kelsey Winslow?" asked one of the suited men, "Would you come with us please?"
"Who in the world are you?" questioned the brunette
Later at an aquatic theme park, a young Asian man is currently performing with the orca whales for visiting families. As he surfaced near the stage and was about to feed the orcas some fish, the black suited men approached him at this time "Chad Lee?" meanwhile outside the theme park, the blonde service woman sat in the black vehicle waiting for the arrival of the suited men and Chad. She glanced at his blue portfolio and closed it before moving onto the last one marked in red.
Minutes passed when the blonde service woman arrived at the location of a burning building. Firefighters were scrambling around to put out the fire, ignoring the black suited men that were searching about. One of the suited men stopped a firefighter and said, "I'm looking for Carter Grayson." The firefighter pointed to one of the fire trucks that were near the burning building, "He's up there on the ladder." At that moment the uniformed woman stepped out of the car and watched Carter enter the building before looking at his portfolio in her hands.
Inside the burning building Carter was searching for any civilian that happened to be still trapped. He soon found a little girl and quickly went to her aid, while he led her through the burning building, Carter calmly said to the child "Right this way, just stay close to me."
Though as he continued to safely lead the girl, Carter happened to spot something amongst the burning inferno that happened to look like a demon, the firefighter couldn't help but stare at it in wonder "What?" to his surprise and horror the burning flames started to come towards them.
Carter quickly made the little girl run along with him, "Run!" the two headed straight for a nearby window and crashed right through it. The service woman loudly gasped as she witnessed Carter and the little girl fall from the second story, much to her relief the other firefighters quickly caught the two.
The uniformed woman then quickly darted over to Carter and the little girl to give them her aid. As she was treating the little girl, Carter couldn't help but questioned her "What are you doing?" "I'm a paramedic, don't worry I'll take it from here." "Thanks…"
He soon stepped back to let the other paramedics aid the blonde service woman who was still treating the girl. Carter then walked over to a nearby ambulance to rest from the whole ordeal, once she had finished treating the girl, the blonde service woman approached Carter with the two suited men behind her, "I know this maybe a bad time but…I need you to come with me."
Meanwhile at a demonic castle, the evil demon spirits that had escaped from the tomb appeared inside the palace. "We're free!" cheered one of the demons, "To reclaim the palace of Queen Bansheera!" another demon that happened to be female, looked around at their surroundings "But she's not here…"
Another demon who looked like to be the leader of the group turned to the female, "Vypra we must care for her son: Impus." He then turned to one of the other demons, "Who did this Loki?"
"Humans Diabolico! They built their cities right on top of our palace!"
"Have they?"
The demon named Loki used his demonic powers to show his leader what he means, "Just look! They built their ugly city on our scared ground! No palace, no queen, no ultimate power!"
Diabolico sneered at this and loudly proclaimed, "We will have our palace back after we destroy their miserable city brick by brick!"
Back to the peaceful city of Mariner Bay, currently a helicopter was flying over the city with Carter, Chad, Joel, Kelsey and the blonde service woman who had introduced herself as Dana. As they were flying over the ocean waters, Carter looked out the window and down below to see a submarine underneath them.
He looked at Dana and said, "Don't tell me…We're going in that submarine aren't we?"
Kelsey quickly got up from her seat to look out the window, she grinned in delight at the sight of the submarine "Excellent!"
And soon the group of five departed from the helicopter in order to enter the submarine which immediately descended deep into the ocean. The aquatic vessel then began its trek towards an underwater base located deep in the waters. It didn't long for the submarine to arrive at the base and safely dock inside, once they had arrive Dana led the others out of the vessel and into the base.
While they were passing by the service personnel Chad couldn't help but wonder. "Where are we?" "I don't know…But it's cool, huh?" asked Kelsey
As they continued on through the base, Joel immediately ceased walking once he spotted a panel on the wall. The sky cowboy then started to mess around by pressing some of the buttons and in turn set off an alarm. Try as he might, Joel couldn't stop the alarm Dana briskly walked over to him and gave the pilot a stern look before turning off the alarm.
She then grabbed Joel by his collar and dragged him off to the join with the others. The group soon entered a conference room where the captain of the base happened to be waiting. He offered them a friendly smile and greeted them, "Welcome to Lightspeed Aquabase."
Joel immediately approached the captain, "I don't know who you are, but this is illegal! This is kidnapping!"
"I'm Captain William Mitchell, none of you will be held against your will you're free to go."
"See ya!" said the pilot, he turned to leave the room until a service man got in his way and stopped him from leaving. "That is…Until you hear me out." Said Captain Mitchell, he then gestured to the others "Please…Have a seat."
While Carter, Kelsey, Chad and Joel took a seat at the conference table, Dana remained standing just as Mitchell stood at the head of the table "5,000 years ago…This part of Earth was inhabited by evil spirits, demons if you will, whose only purpose was to destroy and conquer. Luckily there was a warlock who was strong enough to conquer them. Finally the demons were captured and entombed, but we always feared that one day they would escape and return to Mariner Bay…Well it seems our fears have come true…Just hours ago nomad travelers crossing in the desert discovered the tomb and released the demons back into our world. Lightspeed has developed technology, highly sophisticated weapons we believe can stop them."
Dana then pulled out the colored portfolios and placed the correct ones to that belonged to Carter, Kelsey, Chad and Joel. As she opened the portfolios for them to see, Captain Mitchell continued on "Because of your skills, you've been chosen to use these weapons to defend the city and to become Lightspeed Power Rangers."
"You built this whole aquabase so that the four of us could fight off angry demons?" questioned Kelsey
"Well that's putting it simply but…Uh…Yes…" said Mitchell
"I heard you out…" said Joel, "I think you're nuts…I'm outta here!" the pilot then stood up and started to leave until Carter stopped him, "Wait!" Joel stopped and turned around only to have someone bump into him and fall to the floor.
Everyone looked to see a uniformed woman with long wavy black hair and light blue eyes on the floor with a suitcase by her side. Carter, Kelsey and Chad quickly stood up and went over to her along with Dana and Captain Mitchell. Carter was the first to reach the woman and helped her up, "Are you ok?" "Yes…I'm fine…"
As the woman looked right at him, Carter felt his heart stop as he took in her beauty along with her captivating blue eyes and thought to himself "W-Wow…" "Hey I'm sorry about that." Apologized Joel
Carter broke out of his little daze just as the woman looked away and shook her head at Joel, "Oh no…I'm sorry, I was the one who bumped into you."
"You sure you're all right?" asked Captain Mitchell
The woman nodded, "Yes I'm sure…Thank you for asking Captain, but I'm sure that he…" she looked at Carter, "Was about to say something." Mitchell looked at the firefighter, "Well were you Carter?" "Umm…Yes…I was about to say that explains it."
"What?" asked Dana
"That fire…When I was saving that little girl…I saw someone…In the flames…It was one of them…One of the demons…"
Dana immediately looked at Captain Mitchell, "Father…" suddenly there was a loud beep coming from the computer behind Dana and Mitchell. The black hair woman briskly walked over and grabbed the headset handing it to Mitchell, he quickly placed the device on "Mitchell here." "You need to see this sir." "Bring it up on the monitor."
He immediately looked at the computer behind him along with the others to see some parts of the city being destroyed and innocent people getting hurt. Captain Mitchell turned to Carter and the others, "The city needs you." "I'm in sir." Told Carter
"Me too." Said Kelsey
"I want to help." Said Chad
The three then looked to Joel, noticing the looks that they were giving him the pilot sighed a bit and looked at Captain Mitchell "What do we do first?"
Mitchell looked to the dark haired beauty, "Jean…Please bring me the case." "Yes sir." The woman named Jean quickly retrieved the suitcase and placed on the table, opening it. Mitchell turned the case in order for the others to see what was inside, "These are your rescue morphers."
Carter, Kelsey, Joel and Chad each grabbed one from the case with Jean informing them, "They're worn on your wrist." As they followed what she said, Dana who was silently watching happened to notice that there was one more morpher in the case, "Five?" Mitchell turned to his daughter, "You are the fifth." "Me?"
Mitchell pulled out his daughter's portfolio from behind his back, "For eighteen years, I've been training you for this…It's yours…If you want it." Jean pulled the last morpher from the suitcase and held it out to Dana. She stared at it for a moment before taking the device and placing it on her wrist.
Dana then stood with Carter and the others, Mitchell studied the group and gave them an approving nod, "All right rangers…Time to get to work." And thus the newly formed Lightspeed Rescue rangers made their departure from the base and straight into the city of Mariner Bay.
Inside the city many innocent civilians were being attacked by a fire demon by the name of Ghouligan and the demonic minions called Batlings. Though as the creatures was harming the poor city and its citizens, the rangers soon arrived to put a stop to their actions. They managed to hold them off a bit and yet the Batlings proved to be too strong for them.
Captain Mitchell who had been watching them from aquabase monitors instructed the rangers to use their morphers. The group immediately followed his instructions and morphed into their ranger forms and easily defeated the Batlings. Carter and the others soon defeated Ghouligan by the use of their blaster, thus saving Mariner Bay and its civilians. Once the rangers had powered down, civilians who happened to witness the whole thing walked over to the rangers and began thanking them for their help.
Back at the aquabase, all the service personnel present began congratulating Carter and the others on their first victory over the demons. The rangers then stood front and center before Captain Mitchell with Jean by his side. Mitchell studied the group for a brief moment and said, "There is a time to celebrate, but this is not it. You see Diabolico knows you exist, you think this fight was tough just wait."
"But sir…We just destroyed Diabolico didn't we?" asked Kelsey
Captain Mitchell shook his head, "Oh no…That was just one of his monsters…You want to defeat him? Well you got a lot of work to do…We all do…"
Thus Dana immediately saluted her father causing Jean and the other service personnel follow suit which cause Carter, Kelsey, Chad and Joel to do the same. In turn this day marks the start of the Lightspeed rangers' journey and goal to defeat Diabolico and his demonic minions in order to restore peace to Mariner Bay.
