This chapter really isn't anything special. Just a little something to pad out the story somewhat. Enjoy.

Chapter 3: A Good Reason For Being Late

Several months has past sense Miu accepted Sosuke's proposal and after the announcement, everyone has been busy with the preparations. To celebrate on the up coming nuptials, Hiroto decided to throw the Go-On lovebirds an engagement party. The party was set and ready to take place on a quite afternoon in late October. Hiroto had rented out a dinning hall in a county club and told everyone that it was casual dress. However, not everything would so quite that afternoon as a few surprises would reveal themselves to the Go-Ongers before the party began. One of those surprises came from news footage of a giant Engine resembling a Formula 1 racecar assisting the Gokaigers. It was Hanto who alerted the others of this and Hiroto, Saki, Miu, Gunpei and Renn all followed the Green Warrior to a bar that had a TV playing the footage. You my have noticed that someone is missing in this picture and that someone is Sosuke.

"Do you think Sosuke had something to do with this?" asked Hanto.

"He did send me a text that he would be running a little late to the party." Said Miu. "But I didn't imagine that this would be the reason."

"Maybe he gave the Gokaigers permission to use our Grand Power." Said Gunpei.

"But I had given them the right to our Grand Power months ago." Said Saki. "We're all suppose to be one team so I'm pretty sure that I granted them access to all of our power."

Before the six could deliberate further, Sosuke entered the country club dressed in his Go-On Red uniform. Hiroto noticed this and turned everyone's attention to the Red Warrior. As Hiroto and Miu went to greet him but before they could get to Sosuke, a young man with reddish brown hair wearing a silver jacket popped up in between the three and began bowing to the Go-On Wings. "Wings-san, please do not be mad at Sosuke-san." Said the young man trying to defend Sosuke. "We needed his help with the Gairak in Gunman World. Oh, by the way Miu-san, from one silver to another, I would like to wish you the best of wishes and may all the years you and Sosuke-san are together be happy ones."

"Um, thank you." Miu said meekly. Before she could ask Sosuke who this young man was, she noticed that there were five other people standing behind him and they were all dressed like pirates. Then it hit her. "Are you…a Gokaiger?" she asked the young man.

"Yes." Said the young man ecstatically. "I am Ikari Gai, GokaiSilver. And I have to say that I am a huge fan of all of you." Then Gai noticed the other Engine Sentai members standing by the bar and he immediately ran off to meet them. After seeing Gai go completely fan boy on the others, Hiroto and Miu turned to Sosuke with questioning expressions on their faces.

"Let me get changed first and I'll explain everything." Sosuke told the to before introducing them to the other Gokaigers.

After Sosuke was changed into some clothes that better fit the occasion, the Speed King and Gokaigers all the other Go-Ongers down and began go through the day's events.

"So that new Engine is called Machalcon, huh." Said Gunpei

"Yeah and get this," began Sosuke "he's Speedor and Bear RV's son."

The eyes of the other Go-Ongers nearly popped out of their skulls. "Bear R had a baby!" cried Saki.

"The Engines are capable of reproduction." Said Hanto. "But how?"

Before the subject of how cars kind have offspring or how condor + bear = falcon, went any further the Gokaigers told the Go-Ongers of how they were able to defeat Gaiark's Pollution President Batcheed once and for all.

"Gokai Change?" said Renn.

"Yes," said Captain Marvelous "it's our method of transforming into the previous 34 Super Sentai. We could become any team or make up our own combination."

"Really?" said Hanto. "Could you show us?"

"I don't see why not." Said Marvelous. The Gokaigers then all stood up and took a few steps back from the table they were sitting at with the Go-Ongers. After lining up, the Gokaigers took out their phones and Ranger Keys. "GOKAI CHANGE!" the six pirates called out as they transformed into their normal ranger forms. After they were all transformed, the pirates then flipped their belt buckles, revealing the Zyuranger keys, then transformed into the Kyoryu Sentai. Then to demonstrate how they could all become a ranger team that is the same color, the Gokaigers transformed into an all black team. Marvelous became the Black Condor, Joe turned into DynaBlack, Luka changed into BoukenBlack, Ahim became Go-On Black, Gai transformed into King Ranger and Don stayed as MammothRanger.

"Amazing." Said Miu with a broad smile on her face.

"Alright, now guess what this line up is." The Gokaigers then took out some new Ranger Keys and transformed again. This time Marvelous became Wolzard Fire, Joe turned into DekaMaster, Luka transformed into GingaYellow, Don became GekiViolet, Gai turned into GaoSilver and Ahim stayed as Go-On Black. The Go-Ongers took a good long while to try and figure this configuration out. After a while, Gunpei was finally able to come up with an answer.

"You all changed into canine based heroes." Said the Police officer.

"Ping Pong." Said Luka giving Gunpei a thumb's up.

"Great job, Gunpei-san." Said Saki while the others applauded him as Hiroto just gave Gunpei an approving nod.

Before the Gokaigers powered down, Renn had something to ask the Kaizoku Sentai. Specifically Gai. "What happens when you decide to transform into a Sentai that has more then six members? Namely, what happens if you decide to become us?"

"What do you mean Renn?" asked Saki.

"Well, its just there are six of them and seven of us. Now I understand that, Marvelous, Joe, Don and Luka-chan will transform into the Go-Ongers of their corresponding colors and that sense there is no pink on our team, Ahim-chan becomes Go-Black."

"But what about Go-Wings?" said Hiroto, grasping what Renn was getting at.

"Oh, that's easy." Answered Gai. The Go-Ongers save for Sosuke, watched with puzzled looks on their faces as Gai placed a Ranger Key into his Gokai Cellular. "Gokai Change!" cried Gai as the Go-On Wings symbol flew out of the Cellular with a voice crying out GO-ON WINGS. After a flash passed over Gai, Renn and the others dropped their jaws in disbelief of what they were seeing. For the second time, Gai has left a Sentai team completely stunned with his Go-On Wings hybrid suit.

"He…he just…" began Gunpei.

"turned into both…" added Hanto.

"Hiroto and Miu." Finished Saki.

"S-seriously?" said Renn.

Feeling that they need to get a better look at what they were looking at, the Sutou siblings walked right up to Gai and weren't any less shocked by what they were seeing.

"One half Gold…" said Hiroto.

"and the other half Silver." Finished Miu.

"Impressed?" asked Gai in a near boastful tone.

"Yeah," said very meek Hiroto "but how did you do this?"

"Well, in a way it was thanks to you two." Gai said as he and the other Gokaigers powered down too their civilian forms.

"Eh!" said Hiroto and Miu.

"It all happened during my first battle as an official member of the crew. Everyone had become Go-Ongers and I was trying to decide which one of you I should turn into. Then I began to daydream in which the two of you appeared before me. Next thing I knew, the two of you merged into one and when I awoke from the daydream I was hold one Ranger Key."

"Really" said Hanto running up in and barging the Sutous. "You were able to combine two Sentai powers with your imagination."

Gai nodded in response. "If you think that's impressive, wait till you see my Gold Mode."

"That's going to have to wait for another time." Said Marvelous. "It's been fun hanging out with you all but we're very busy and we need to get going." With that said, the Gokaigers bid the Go-Ongers a fond fair well and gave their best wishes to Sosuke and Miu.

"So that was the 35th Super Sentai." Said an amazed Gunpei.

"Do you think we should have asked them for our Ranger Keys back?" asked Hanto.

"Nah, let them keep them for the time being." Said Sosuke putting an arm around Miu. "I'm sure that when it's all said and done, they'll return all the Ranger Keys." Miu turned to Sosuke and shot him a questioning look because Sosuke seemed very sure about his claim. Sosuke simply smiled at Miu and placed a kiss on her forehead. "Trust me. They're really good people despite being pirates and all." Miu grinned at her lover as she wrapped her arms around his torso. As the two embraced, Renn asked what the time was and Hiroto noted, after looking down at his watch, that the party guest would be arriving soon. And so, the Go-Ongers all filed into the dinning hall to await the arrival of the other guests so that the engagement party can begin.

Again, if this chapter wasn't all that good, I'm sorry, I'm just trying to pad out the story a bit. If you enjoyed this chapter, I thank you for your patients and for being loyal followers.
