Prologue Part 1: Welcome to the Jungle
During the events of Welcome to the Jungle:
Stryder's POV
My name is Stryder Oliver and my life still sucks. Maybe not as much as last time I said that... Okay, definitely not as much, but still. I'm sure you saw the epilogue to my last story, so I'll only go over the basics on what happened then.
I haven't seen Kira in years now, but we have kept in touch and kept up our long distance relationship. I have no idea where Conner, Ethan, and Trent are and Dr. O is still teaching his science class at Reefside High School. Also, I still keep my bracelet with my gem on because it just brings me on a nostalgia trip. But back to the present.
It's been a few weeks since I started working at Jungle Karma. RJ has been training me in the martial art of Pai Zhug. It allows someone to access their inner animal spirit and use it as a weapon. RJ had the wolf and we were trying to figure out what mine was. I had the fighting down, but I just couldn't get my animal spirit out. RJ said that since I just started, it wasn't surprising that I hadn't discovered mine yet.
While working, there was a girl named Fran that always came by and helped occasionally and we became friends.

Then things changed when three teenagers walked in the restaurant. They were in martial arts clothes (which look like pajamas) and looking for a master. Me and RJ decided to have a little fun and see if they could figure out that the master was RJ.
But soon, a weird creature started attacking downtown with a bunch of foot soldiers, and despite protests, the three teens, Casey, Lily, and Theo, ran off to fight it. Something seemed oddly familiar about this...
They got their butts kicked and RJ went to help. After chasing the monster off, me and RJ took them to the Loft, where they would be training. Basically no rules, everything was theirs, except:
"Don't sit in that chair!" RJ warned Lily before she could sit in a leather chair, "That's my chair. It's off limits."
Later on, the monster attacked again. Before the three could go after it again, RJ offered them morphers that resembled sunglasses. Needless to say, I was a bit surprised. RJ hadn't told me about them. Heck, why didn't he give me one?
When they left, I asked him why, and told me that I wasn't ready. I wanted to tell him I was more than qualified, but I hadn't told him I was a former Ranger so I kept my mouth shut.
Long story short, they beat the monster, but the monster went really big and they couldn't handle it. They were saved by some weird ghost guy and they warped away.
When they came back, interrupting RJ's meditation, they explained that their old teacher, Master Mao, had come back as a ghost and sent the mantis creature flying. The master also told them that RJ could teach them how to counter the monster's enormous size. However, RJ said:
"You're not ready for the 'growing really big' technique. Sorry Rangers, but no way."
They looked at each other, confused, then turned to me.
"Can you teach us anything?" Casey asked hopeful.
"Sorry," I told them, "But I just started a couple weeks ago. I haven't even discovered my animal spirit yet. If you want to learn more about fighting, though, I could always teach you more on that."
After much begging, RJ said that once they master each of their weapons, he'll teach them. Theo and Lily had their's down, but Casey... Well he had nunchucks and he was new at all of this. Need I explain more? But eventually, after some training with me and Theo, he mastered them.
When the monster attacked again, they ran off and used their weapons against the foot soldiers, named Rinshi. Just watching them brought back good memories of the Dino Rangers. When the monster grew big again, their animal spirits came out and became sentient and huge, forming a Megazord, with Theo's Jaguar as one leg, Lily's Cheetah as the other, and Casey's Tiger was the rest of the body.
After they destroyed the monster, they arrived back and RJ gave them a job at the restaurant along with Fran. Little did I know that things were about to change forever... Again.
