A/N: Hey guys, bobman here. Well this is the chapter I know some of you were waiting for. The first morph of the team (minus Malakite who already morphed). Now I tried to add as much action as I thought necessary, but understand that fight scenes aren't exactly my bread and butter. Any who: Shout outs to lil26jay, decode9, CountySweetHeart, and Son of Whitebeard for their reviews.

"Hannah! I'm coming." Malakite called out after seeing Andros fall to Golark's attack. As tired as he had been from fighting the Spawn for as long as had, seeing not only Andros go down, but seeing Hannah attack in pure blind fury had given him an extra boost of energy. Despite his body's protests, he swung his Defender Axe in wild, yet calculated swings. He fought his way through the Spawn, despite the fact that they really did seem to multiply with each one he took out. However, even with the extra energy, a few of the Spawn managed to hit him with some pretty hard blows which knocked him back.
The injuries that he had sustained during the fight finally began to overcome him as he tried, and failed to get back to his feet. The Spawn began to converge on the downed ranger, in hopes of taking one of the two remaining rangers down. Malakite tried to hold up his Axe to defend himself, but one of the Spawn kicked the Axe out of his hands. Malakite closed his eyes waiting for the end, but it didn't come. He opened his eyes and saw the Spawn being fought off by 5 young adults.
"James, Olivia, get him out of here, We'll hold these guys off." Rena commanded. James and Olivia nodded and broke off from the fight, helping Malakite off the battlefield and into Rena's Electronics store. As soon as they were in the store, Malakite demorphed as the pain that the suit had held off of him came rushing to him.
"You really took a beating out there." James noted as he looked over Malakite's body. James then looked to Olivia "I can take things from here, you'd better go help Hannah and the others." Olivia nodded and rushed out the door. Malakite watched as Olivia left the store, and caught a momentary glimpse of a silver cuff on her wrist. "Good luck...pink ranger." Malakite thought before the fatigue from his battle overtook him, sending him into a resting state.
Olivia rejoined the others, who had been doing a rather good job of holding the Spawn at bay. Rena, Zack, and Jevon were displaying some great fighting skills, though Rena's seemed to stick out the most to Olivia. Olivia joined the battle, able to hold her own as well though clearly not as well as the others. Her height, or lack thereof rather, worked to her advantage as it didn't take too much for her to be able to dodge attacks, and it allowed her to focus her energy on her strikes and takedowns on the Spawn. After the four had taken down a majority of the horde, they rushed off in the direction of the fight between Hannah and Golark.
Hannah was breathing heavily, her grip on her father's Spiral Saber was like a vice as she stared down the demon commander who had harmed her father. Hannah had cuts and bruises all over her body and was truly in a great deal of pain, yet she wouldn't give Golark the satisfaction of seeing her acknowledge it.
"I'll give you this, you have been a worthy opponent." Golark commented, his massive Axe at the ready. "Alas, my master wishes you eliminated." Golark shifted his stance and charged forward. Hannah shifted herself into a semi-defensive stance, ready for the attack. Out of the corner of Hannah's eyes, she saw laser bolts fly past her, hitting Golark and causing him to roar out in pain. Hannah turned and smiled at what she saw. The security escorts were behind her, Astro blasters at the ready and with them were Olivia, Rena, Jevon, and Zack. The security personnel went over to help Andros off the battlefield, while the other four took their place alongside Hannah. Golark looked up to see, from left to right; Olivia, Jevon, Hannah, Rena, and Zack standing in front of him. "Oh how nice, you brought some friends to share in your destruction." Golark snarled.
"No, we're going to show you and your 'master' exactly what you are dealing with." Hannah boldly declared. She nodded to the others and they all flicked their wrists, which made their Defender Morphers appear on their wrists.
"CONSTELLAR DEFENDERS, POWER UP!" All five of them shouted, as they brought their arms together like they saw Malakite do earlier. The 5 were coated in light matching the color of the gem on their Defender Morphers. When the light died down, five figures wearing spandex where standing there. Their outfits looked very similar to Malakite's, only in different colors. The star on the shield emblem on their chest had their matching colored gem in the center, with a white point replacing their colored point.
"GALACTIC PEACEKEEPER! CONSTELLAR DEFENDER PINK!" Olivia called out as she struck a pose.
"GALACTIC PEACEKEEPER! CONSTELLAR DEFENDER BLACK!" Jevon followed, striking a pose.
"GALACTIC PEACEKEEPER! CONSTELLAR DEFENDER BLUE!" Rena yelled, striking her pose.
"GALACTIC PEACEKEEPER! CONSTELLAR DEFENDER YELLOW!" Zack then said, striking a pose as well.
"GALACTIC PEACEKEEPER! CONSTELLAR DEFENDER RED!" Hannah finished, and posed as well.
"POWER RANGERS CONSTELLAR DEFENDERS!" All five yelled out, posing once again. Golark seemed to take a step back as he wasn't expecting the entire team to show up. Suddenly the remaining Spawn showed up, though their forces had been added to. Golark then commanded the Spawn to charge at the rangers, which they did. The rangers nodded to each other and charged as well, attacking the Spawn head on.
"DEFENDER GAUNTLETS!" Hannah called out, which caused two red, metallic looking fingerless gloves to appear on her hands. She threw a few kicks at the Spawn she was fighting, taking them down. Her fist began to glow red and she threw a punch at one of the Spawn. The Spawn was sent flying back, crashing into several of his fellow Spawn, causing Hannah to smile under her helmet. After seeing her display, the Spawn were more hesitant to attack her, so she knew she'd have to bring the fight to them.
"DEFENDER STAFF!" Rena called out, summoning a blue staff weapon. This weapon gave her much greater reach, as she was able to take down many Spawn who thought they were safe hiding behind each other. Rena expertly wielded the staff, which did not go unnoticed by the others. Her staff began to glow blue as she twirled it around, creating strong gusts of wind that swept the Spawn off their feet.
"DEFENDER SWORD!" Zack called out, as a blade with a yellow sword grip appeared in his hand. Despite having never used a sword before, Zack found himself wielding the blade with great ease as he took down Spawn after Spawn. His sword then began to glow yellow and he gave it a swing. It took down a Spawn, and caused a yellow lightning bolt to arc it's way though the group of Spawn he was fighting.
"DEFENDER SCYTHE!" Devon called out, as a scythe with a black blade appeared in his hands. Much like Zack, he wielded the scythe very well, despite having no prior experience with the weapon. The blade of the scythe began to glow with a dark purple light. Jevon seemed to smirk under his helmet as he swung the scythe at seemingly nothing. However as the blade sliced through the air, energy blades seemed to fly from the scythe and at the Spawn.
"DEFENDER BLASTERS!" Olivia called out, which called two pink and white blasters to her hands. Olivia almost seemed relieved at the weapon she now held as she fired some shots at the Spawn before putting some distance between her and the Spawn. Her blasters began to glow pink and she pointed them at the Spawn and pulled the triggers. As she held down the triggers, two massive energy balls formed at the barrels of her blasters. She then released the triggers, sending the two massive energy balls into the horde of Spawn that she had been fighting.
Each ranger made short work of the Spawn groups they were fighting, before rejoining up and facing off against Golark. The all took an offensive position, weapons at the ready. The demon, as seemingly blood crazy as he was, knew when the odds were against him.
"We will meet on the battlefield again, Rangers." Golark said before disappearing in a purple light. After he was gone the five rangers powered down. Hannah looked to the other four and give them a thankful smile.
"Thanks you guys. I really am glad I chose you." Hannah said to the others, who all shrugged off the thanks.
"He was threatening our home, we had to do it." Zack replied as he looked down to the cuffs on his wrists. "I still can't believe this. We are Power Rangers."
"It really is an amazing honor and a great responsibility." A voice replied. Malakite approached the five, James helping him as he hadn't fully recovered. "But now I must ask you four to do something. Something that, under normal circumstances I wouldn't ask."
"What's that?" Olivia quietly asked, as all four earth rangers looked at Malakite.
"...You have to leave Earth and come with us." Malakite replied, while each ranger wore an unreadable expression.
A/N II: There you have it ladies and gentlemen. Now I still have to do one more chapter on earth, to address the second general and her search for the artifact. Yes the rangers will probably be involved in that as well, but after that we'll get to the start of the actual space travel and such. I know my description of the other rangers suits was a little wonky, but just reference back to chapter 4 when Malakite morphed, and just make the appropriate changes. Anyway, leave a positive or negative review and I'll see you all next update (which I'm not 100% sure if it will be next week or not due to the Christmas holiday.)
