{Red Cold River by Breaking Benjamin}
(Days Reborn) Older versions of Parker, Kayla, and Aria sat with their backs to one another and looked at the camera as it focused on each one of them.
(Fight with folded hands) The three young adults looked at the coins in their hands then looked in front of them.
(Pain left below) Each of the three stood up with shocked expressions on their faces.
(The lifless live again) Three silhouettes appeared in front of the three young adults and each appeared to be looking at the young adult they were facing.
(Run! Run! Run!) Parker, Kayla, and Aria readied their coins as the silhouettes readied themselves.
(Red Cold River!) Parts of the silhouettes faces were then shown and it was revealed that they were Kaijinred, Kaijinblue, and Kaijinyellow.
(Run! Run! Run!) Parker, Kayla, and Aria looked up as shadows came from the sky and formed into Thanatos.
(Red Cold River!) Thanatos smirked evilly then darted towards the three along with the monstrous versions of the Zokugers.
(I can't feel anything at all) Zokured fought several wisps then he jumped over a rail and punched a wisp in the face. Kaijinred then tackled Zokured into a dumpster and tried to punch him.
(This life has left me cold and damned) Zokublue shot three wisps then Kaijinblue kicked her in the face before he kicked her to the ground. Zokublue tumbled on the ground then aimed her gun at Kaijinblue.
(I can't feel anything at all) Zokuyellow hit several wisps then Kaijinyellow appeared in front of her. She threw several punches at the Kaijinyellow until the monstrous woman flipped her onto her back and pinned her to the ground.
(This love has led me to the end) Thanatos lunged at all three Zokugers as darkness trailed behind him. He then stopped when a person shrouded in light came into his view.
(Run!) Kayla is seen yelling into the sky before falling to her knees.
(Run!) Aria was sitting on a bed hugging her knees to her chest as she screamed.
(Run!) Parker was yelling while having both of his hands go through his hair.
(Red Cold River!) Zokured, Zokublue, and Zokuyellow appeared briefly while doing poses until they all charged towards the screen. The three Zokugers disappeared as a stylized stone title appeared in their place that read Renegade Sentai Zokuger.
The three Zokugers only stared at their monstrous counterparts as Thanatos smirked then said,"Oh look you're all speechless. How cute. Get them."
The three monsters charged at the three Zokugers. The Zokugers tried to ready themselves but all three were tackled and sent to different places of the mall. Thanatos smirked then went into some shadows.
Zokured was thrown across a walkway and crashed into a pillar. Kaijinred chuckled then walked over to Zokured and picked him before getting kicked in the chest. Zokured punched Kaijinred several times before getting punched in the stomach and kneed in the same place. Zokured pushed Kaijinred then spin kicked the monstrous man in the face before scaling the escalators and getting up to the second floor. Kaijinred looked at Zokured and smirked before effortlessly jumping up to the second floor, directly in front of Zokured. Zokured gasped and stumbled back in surprise while saying,"What the hell?"
"Still the scared kid I knew for Parker, pathetic.",Kaijinred said with malice. Zokured tilted his head in confusion while saying,"You know me?"
"Tragically.",Kaijured said with malice before he moved towards Zokured. Zokured flipped to his feet and threw a punch at Kaijinred, only to have it caught by the monster. Kaijinred then kicked Zokured in the chest and he flew back many feet.
Zokublue skidded back before Kaijinblue threw a punch at her and she dodged it. Zokublue dodged another punch then kicked Kaijinblue in the back. She grabbed her ankle in pain then was elbowed in the stomach before she was flipped over Kaijinblue's shoulder and onto her back. Zokublue rolled away from Kaijinblue as he tried to crush her head with his foot before she summoned her pistol and fired a few shots at him. Kaijinblue rolled out of the way of the shots then fired energy burst of his own at Zokublue, hitting her in chest and causing her to stumble back into a wall. Kaijinblue stood up then said,"Need to improve your shot Kay."
"Kay? Why did you call me that?",Zokublue questioned. Kaijinblue chuckled then he fired more energy bursts towards Zokublue, who intern fired energy bursts at him.
Zokuyellow tumbled back towards a clothes store before she was hit through the window display of the clothes store by Kaijinyellow. Zokuyellow rose to her feet and was immediately punched in the face and crashed into a clothes rack. Kaijinyellow sighed then walked up to Zokuyellow and said,"You know I don't wanna do this to you little one, but you decided to leave without saying goodbye."
"Little one? Only one who's ever called me that is,",Zokuyellow gasped before she was hauled to her feet by her throat. Kaijinyellow smirked then said,"Shhh, no talking little one."
Zokuyellow then kicked Kaijinyellow back before picking up a shelf and throwing it at Kaijinyellow. Kaijinyellow smashed the shelf to pieces in the air then kicked Zokuyellow several times before backhanding her.
Thanatos sat on a bench and he looked behind him as Zokublue was kicked back, Zokuyellow tossed towards Zokublue, and Zokured crashed through the second floor before getting thrown towards his comrades. The three Zokugers reverted to their civilian forms and grunted and groan in pain as Thanatos walked towards them with an evil smirk on his face. Thanatos stopped a few feet away from the Zokugers then said,"Well that was faster than I thought. Nice job."
The three monstrous zokugers lined up behind Thanatos as he had shadows cover his hands and he said,"As for you three Zokugers however, I'm afraid this where we part."
Parker, Kayla, and Aria braced themselves to be hit by Thanatos' attacked but they were instead engulfed in a white light and transported away from Thanatos and their monstrous counterparts. Thanatos saw this and gritted his teeth in anger before regaining his composure and saying,"Seems the old man is still in this plane of reality. This is gonna be tougher than expected."
"What does that mean?",Kaijured asked in a slightly agitated voice.
"It means that instead of you all immediately getting what you want, it shall take some time. You should not be angry though, the chase is actually quite fun.",Thanatos said with a wicked smirk. He then clasped his hands together and had black and grey energy gather around them.
On a random rooftop, Parker, Kayla, and Aria appeared on the roof. Parker looked around frantically then said,"What the? Where are we?"
Kayla groaned then she looked around and said,"we're in Beacon Hill."
"How'd we get here so fast?",Aria asked.
"That would be my doing.",said the old man as he appeared in front of the three young adults. Kayla's widened while Aria and Parker gasped in surprise.
"My name is Odysseus and I was the protector of the discs that you three now possess.",The old man, now known as Odysseus, said to the group.
"Discs? You mean these coins?",Kayla asked as she pulled out her coin. Odysseus nodded then said,"Yes. These coins are actually discs which contain the powers of mighty warriors known as the Renegade Sentai Zokuger. They were the ones who sealed Thanatos away over five hundred years ago."
"Okay hold on a sec. Could you maybe explain who Thanatos is, why we all got these discs things, what exactly a Zokuger is, and most importantly WHAT IN THE EVER LOVING FUCK IS GOING ON?!",Aria said as she was visibly frazzled by recent events. Parker's eyes widened while a smile crept onto his face at Aria's outburst. Odysseus nodded then said,"I apologize, I assumed you all had prior knowledge of the Zokugers however it would seem I was mistaken. So which would you all like to know about first?"
"The whole Zokuger thing would be nice.",Parker said.
Odysseus nodded then said,"The Renegade Sentai Zokuger were a group of legendary heroes that protected humans from the evils of the world five centuries ago. It was made up of three extraordinary people. Zokuyellow, the bruiser of the group. Their strength was unmatched by any who crossed them. Zokublue, the sniper of the group. They were able to take down an entire platoon before any of them could tell where the shots were coming from. And finally, Zokured who was the leader of the group. They had a will of iron and their speed was like no other."
"Wait so then is that why all have the disc we have?",Kayla asked.
"Yes. Now as for Thanatos, he is a man that was born from pure evil and hatred. He seeks to use the power within your discs to enslave humanity and plunge the world into an eternal dark age.",Odysseus said. Parker, Kayla, and Aria gained worried expressions at this fact then Aria gulped and said,"And you want us to stop him?"
"It's not that I want to you to stop him, you three are the only ones who can stop him.",Odysseus said. The three young adults looked at one another then Kayla asked,"What about you? You seem to be really strong, why can't you take on Thanatos?"
"Heh well I would but there is only so much a spirit can do to the living world.",Odysseus said while becoming slightly transparent and returning to normal. Parker yelled then said,"You're a ghost?! That means you're, you're,"
"Dead? Yes I am dead. I was killed five years ago after sending the discs out to find new masters, those masters being you three. However that does not matter now, what does matter is that you three are now the only thing standing between Thanatos and his goal.",Odysseus said. Parker, Kayla, and Aria began to think about what Odysseus had told them just as the ground began to shake around them. The three young adults then stood up and turned around to see a giant golem that was made from a skyscraper rise from the ground and roar. Parker raked his hand through his hair and said in a completely shocked voice,"What the hell is that thing?"
"A golem. They're artificial creatures that can be made from anything. Thanatos is quite fond of using them.",Odysseus said while moving to be in front of the three young adults. Aria looked at Odysseus then said,"Are they usually that big?!"
"Eh, depends.",Odysseus said.
"How are we supposed to fight those things?",Kayla asked while moving Aria out of her way.
"With your machines. They can be summoned via the changers on your wrists. Now go forth and be the Renegade Sentai Zokugers.",Odysseus said as he disappeared. Aria and Kayla sighed in distress then Aria said,"This is all too much to handle. How can all three of us stop that thing and fight off some evil guy who has evil versions of us."
"Why are you asking me, I don't fucking know.",Kayla said to Aria.
"RABBIT DISC ACTIVATE! ZOKURED READY!",Aria and Kayla heard as Parker changed into Zokured. Zokured stretched then said,"What are you guys standing around for?"
"Wait you're gonna go fight that thing?",Kayla asked in surprise.
"Of course I am. You heard Odysseus, the three of us are the only ones who can fight Thanatos and his lackeys so it's only right that we go and fight that thing.",Zokured said with determination.
"But how does he expect the three of us to fight together? We literally just met.",Kayla asked.
"Don't know but we can figure that out later. Anyway, I'm off.",Zokured said before he began parkouring across rooftops. Zokured then pressed the device of his wrist and it announced,"RABBSTER TRUCK, GO!"
Suddenly, Zokured jumped off the buildings as a giant red and black rabbit themed monstertruck appeared around him and drove towards the golem.
Kayla and Aria blinked for a few moments then Aria said,"Guess we gotta go." before putting her disc into the device on her wrist, changing into Zokuyellow.
"ANT DISC ACTIVATE! ZOKUYELLOW READY!"
Zokuyellow then pressed her device and jumped off the building as a giant yellow and black ant themed motorcycle, to be specific a Kawasaki Ninja 300, appeared around her and drove towards the golem. Her device also announced,"ANTERCYCLE, GO!" as this happened.
Kayla sighed then said,"Guess I have no other choice." while putting her disc into her device, changing her into Zokublue.
"ELEPHANT DISC ACTIVATE! ZOKUBLUE READY!"
Zokublue then jumped off of the building and pressed the device on her wrist, causing it to announce,"ELEPHATANK, GO!" as a giant blue and black elephant themed tank appeared around her and drove towards the golem.
The golem roared as it stomped through the city, destroying buildings along the way. It then heard the sound of a monster truck and looked to it's right to see the Rabbster Truck driving towards it. The golem roared then threw a building at the Rabbster Truck, only for said building to be shot out of the sky by the rabbit themed monster truck. The Rabbster Truck then gained speed and tackled the golem but only managing to make it stumble back.
The golem was then hit by the Antercycle as it rammed into him several times. The golem then threw the ant themed motorcycle away then it was hit by a shot that came from the Elephatank as it drove toward the golem. The golem blocked the shots that came after then kicked the tank back. It then punched the Rabbster Truck as it tried to hit it from behind.
The three animal themed vehicles regrouped then Zokuyellow said from the Antercycle cockpit,"I am gonna say that all we're seeming to do is piss this thing off."
"I agree, we need to do something more powerful in order to beat it.",Zokublue agreed from the Elephatank cockpit.
Zokured stayed silent then he looked around his cockpit before seeing a button that had the word "Renegattai" on it and saying,"Wonder what this does. Zokured then pressed the button which caused the three machines to announce in the same voice as the devices on the zokugers wrists,"RENEGATTAI!"
The three machines then began combining with one another.
The Rabbster Truck had its roof and window portion slide up slightly from the bottom, while the wheels of the truck collided. The bottom portion of the truck then split apart and moved up to the sides of the front and the hood of the monster truckturned to the side. This formed a torso and arms. The Elephatank rolled over as it's top portion detached from the treads and body before it folded together, forming a cannon. The body of the Elephatank began to stand on its front as the front of the body and treads folded forward. The back of bottom then extended upward as the rest of the body split apart. This form an entire lower body. The Antercycle vaulted into the air before its seat and back wheel split apart and folded forward. The front wheel then turned on its side, folded down before splitting apart and rotating to the top of the front of the motorcycle. This formed a chestplate.
These three components combined and this caused a head to appear from the torso. This head was half blue and half yellow with a red mouthplate and visor which was in the shape of a V. After this was complete the robot stood triumphantly as the Zokugers heard,"ZOKU-OH, KENZAN!"
The three Zokugers made noise and gestures of surprise and excitement as they were now sharing a cockpit. The three then sat in the seats and began piloting the giant robot.
Zoku-Oh charged at the golem as it roared. The golem punched at Zoku-Oh then was punched across the face before being kneed in the stomach. The golem stumbled then hit Zoku-Oh three times before being shot by Zoku-Oh's arm cannon. Zoku-Oh then punched the golem twice before dodging a punch and shooting the golem's chest five more times. The golem stumbled back then roared before charging at Zolku-Oh. Zoku-Oh simply raised its arm cannon and red, blue and yellow energy began to surge at the end of the barrel. Zoku-Oh then fired a blast of energy at the golem, as the machine announced,"ZOKU-OH, RENEGADE BREAK!"
The blast hit the golem directly in its chest and it stood still before falling back and exploding. Zoku-Oh simply relaxed itself as the Zokugers celebrated their victory inside the cockpit.
Meanwhile, Thanatos, Kaijured, Kaijublue, and Kaijuyellow stood on a rooftop, having watched the entire fight, and Kaijublue said,"They have a giant robot too?"
"Yes. I somehow forgot that existed. Anyway, it of no concern at the moment. You all know what you must do while I am gone.",Thanatos said while walking into a portal made of shadows. The portal closed and Kaijured turned to his comrades while saying,"Yeah we do."
Later that evening, Kayla, Aria, and Parker were walking together talking about their day. Aria had a huge smile on her face and said,"That was amazing! I never in a million years thought I'd do what I did today."
"I don't think any of us did. Especially pilot a giant robot.",Kayla said.
"Yeah. But I guess we should get used to it though, I mean we are the only ones who can stop things like that anyway.",Parker said. Aria and Kayla nodded then Kayla said,"So, should we like exchange numbers or something?"
"Huh?",Parker and Aria questioned.
"Well we need to communicate with each other somehow. Not to mention, you both need serious training in terms of you Parker.",Kayla said. Parker rubbed the back of his neck then said,"Good point."
The three then exchanged numbers then went their separate ways as the day became night. Unbeknownst to the three however, an asian man with a muscular build and black hair that was dyed red was looking at them from behind a tree. This man wore a forest green t shirt under a grey sleeveless hoodie, skinny jeans, and grey converse.
This mystery man had impressed look on his face and he smirked before saying,"So these are the Zokugers. I'll give em a bit more time to get used to things before I appear. Hope they can last without me."
This mystery man then put his hood on his head before walking away from the tree while whistling a tune of some sort.
