What Power Rangers Megaforce Should Have Been

Episode 14 - Quest For The Lost Lights Part I

We open with an Armada ship flying through space. We cut to Vrak inside the ship, regaining consciousness. Vrak realizes he is not in the Armada's Flag Ship anymore.

Vrak: "Where am I?"

Vrak turns to see Vekar lying on the floor still unconscious. Vrak walks over to Vekar, and kicks him.

Vrak: "Wake up!"

Vekar springs to his feet. Vekar feels a bit disoriented.

Vekar: "Where are we?"

Vrak: "I'm not sure."

We cut to a door on the ship sliding open. We then see Peiratis walk in, and greet the two brothers.

Peiratis: "Greetings, my princes. I hope you're both comfortable."

Vekar: "You kidnapped us! I swear when I get out of here, my father will -

Peiratis: "Your father doesn't care about either of you. He was going to leave you to rot in that prison forever, if I hadn't broken the two of you out."

Vrak: "And why break us out?"

Peiratis: "Truth is, I need your help."

Vrak and Vekar are shocked by this.

Peiratis: "Your father is an empty headed blunderer. He always talks about destroying the Power Rangers, but never puts his words into action."

Vekar: "You're one to talk! You failed to destroy them before!"

Peiratis: "I have. However, that's a mistake I have no intention of repeating."

Vrak: "Where are we headed."

Peiratis: 'We're heading to a planet, far away from Earth. On this planet, there is a great power. So powerful, we could destroy the Rangers with one swoop if we capture it."

Vrak: "Why do you need this power, if you still have some of the Ranger Keys?"

Peiratis: "The Ranger Keys are powerful, however they're not unstoppable. With this power, no one, not even the Power Rangers will be able to stand in our way."

Vrak: "What will you do when we acquire the power? We can't compensate you."

Peiratis: "I don't care about being paid. All I want is the Green Ranger."

Peiratis extends his hand to Vrak and Vekar.

Peiratis: "So, what do you say? Partners?"

Vrak and Vekar look at each other, then look to Peiratis.

Vrak/Vekar: "Partners."

Vrak and Vekar shake Peiratis' hand.

Peiratis: "Excellent."

We cut to outside the ship, as we see a familiar looking Megaship traking Peiratis' ship. We cut to inside the Megaship. Andros has hacked into a live feed and hears of the villains plans. Andros looks to Alpha.

Andros: "That doesn't sound good."

Alpha: "Aye yai yai, Andros, you know where they're headed."

Andros: "Yeah, and we're going to need some help if we want stop them."

Andros turns the Megaship around, and heads towards Earth.

Cut to Angel Grove Highschool. The Rangers walking out of school, are immediately contacted by Gosei. The Rangers find a private spot and answer their Morphers.

Troy: "Go ahead, Gosei."

Gosei: "Teleport to the Command Center as soon as possible."

Troy: "Right."

The Rangers teleport to the Command Center.

They arrive, and see John already there.

John: "Hey guys."

Troy: "Hey, John. What's going on?"

The Rangers then hear a voice coming from behind them saying, "I believe I can answer that."

The Rangers turn to see former Red Space Ranger, Andros.

Gosei: "Rangers, this is Andros. He was the leader of the leader of the Space Rangers, the team that saved the Earth from an invasion many years ago."

Jake: "And...why is he here?"

Andros: "I need your help."

The Rangers look to Andros.

Andros: "Emperor Mavro's sons have allied themselves with Peiratis."

John: "Peiratis?"

Andros: "Yes. They're on their way to a planet to acquire a great power hidden there. I've seen this power in action, and if the Armada gets a hold of it, the entire universe is doomed."

Troy: "We'll stop them."

Emma: ""You can count on us."

Andros: "We know."

Gia: "How are we gonna get to that planet?"

Andros: "Tensou?"

Tensou: "Right away, Andros!"

Tensou flies around and brings up the Astro Megaship on screen.

Noah: "Incredible!"

Andros: "I present the Astro Megaship Mk II."

Jake: "Wait. Mk II? What happened to Mk I?"

Andros: "It was destroyed."

Jake: "Oh."

Andros: "With the speed of this ship, we'll be there in no time."

John: "We'll need that if we want to catch Peiratis in time."

Andros: "Then let's get going."

Cut to the Rangers boarding the Astro Megaship Mk II. Andros leads the Rangers to the bridge. The Rangers are in awe of everything around them.

Andros: "Alpha. Fire up the engines."

Alpha: "Sure thing, Andros."

(NOTE: I just want to clear things up with the identity of this Alpha. This is Alpha 5 (7 technically, but we'll get to that). Technically Alpha 6 is on Mirinoi with the Galaxy Rangers. This Alpha is the same Alpha featured in "Forever Red", who was voiced by Alpha's original voice actor, Richard Horvitz. However, they used the Alpha 6 body suit for the Episode. But he was labeled as Alpha 7 in the Episode. So there's two ways we can go with this. Either Alpha 6 got an upgrade and got old Alpha's voice, or Alpha 5 got an upgrade and got Alpha 6s' body. I decided to go with Alpha 5 since we never learn the fate of the original Alpha.)

Noah walks over to Alpha, examining him.

Noah: "Fascinating. A fully sentient multi-functional atomaton."

Alpha looks to Noah.

Alpha: "You know, you remind me of an old friend?"

DECA: "Engines are online."

The voice of DECA startles the Rangers.

Andros: "Great. We should be there soon."

The Astro Megaship takes off, and the Rangers set out to find Peiratis. However, the Armada detects the ship leaving the atmosphere. Cut to the bridge of the Armada's Command Ship. Damaras is monitoring a screen with an X-Borg.

Damaras: "My Emperor, it appears a ship not belonging to our fleet just left Earth's atmosphere."

Emperor Mavro: "Bring it up on screen."

Damaras brings up a live video feed of the Astro Megaship. Every one of Mavro's servants is shocked to see the same ship that warned the other Rangers of their previous invasion.

Levira: "It's the same ship."

Argus: "But what could it be doing on Earth?"

Emperor Mavro: "It doesn't matter to me. Damaras, send one of our ships to track it. I want to know who's controlling that ship."

Damaras: "At once, my Emperor."

A ship from the Armada secretly follows the Astro Megaship. Close out scene with a shot of the Armada's ship pursuing the Astro Megaship.

We cut back to space as we see the Astro Megaship flying by. Cut to inside the ship, as we see the Rangers still in awe of everything around them.

Emma: "This is amazing!"

Troy: "I know! I've always wanted to go to space."

John then looks towards Andros.

John: "So when Gosei said you and your Rangers stopped an invasion before...

Andros looks towards John.

Andros: "Yeah..."

John: "How can we?"

Everyone on the ship turns to silence over John's words.

Andros: "You guys have been doing good so far, and I believe in you. We all do."

Jake: "We?"

Andros chuckles.

Andros: "I know you guys have met some of my friends, the past Rangers. Ordinary people, just like you, have protected the Earth countless times. I know being a Ranger can be overwhelming at times, but as long as you guys never give up you'll never lose."

The Rangers all feel reassured thanks to Andros' words. Silence is broken when the planet Peiratis went to comes into view.

Alpha: "Andros, we're approaching Mirinoi."

The Rangers are in awe of the sight of Mirinoi.

Andros: "Alright. I'm bringing -

Andros is cut off as the ship begins to shake.

DECA: "We are under attack from an Armada ship."

Troy: "We need to try and lose them."

Andros: "No. Alpha and I will try and lose them. You guys need to stop Peiratis."

Jake: "Wait. How are we suppose to get to the planet without a ship?"

Andros turns and looks to Jake, then back to the control console.

Cut to outside the ship.

Troy/Emma/Jake/Gia/Noah/John: "Legendary Ranger Mode, In Space!"

We see multi-colored streaks of light leave the ship. We then see that these streaks of light are the Rangers riding Galaxy Gliders. The Rangers struggle at first to control the Gliders, until Andros contacts them.

Andros: "It's alright. Just lean forward."

Troy: "Got it."

The Rangers head to the planet's surface. Cut to the planet as we see Peiratis, Vrak, and Vekar wandering the woods.

Vekar: "How much further?"

Peiratis: "According to my scanner, the power source is somewhere over...

The three find a rock with Five Sabers (The Quasar Sabers) imbedded into it.

Peiratis: "...here."

We then see a mysterious figure watching the three from the bushes.

Vrak: "The power must be hidden in the Sabers."

Vrak approaches the Sabers and attempts to grab a Saber with the image of a wolf on it. However, the mysterious figure jumps into the air and kicks Vrak away from the Saber. The three villains look up and see a woman, the former Yellow Galaxy Ranger, Maya.

Maya: "You three will never possess the power hidden here."

Vekar: "Oh yeah!? Who's going to stop us!? You!?"

Maya: "Yes."

Maya charges at the three villains. Maya is still as agile as ever, blocking multiple strikes and landing a few herself. However, a strike from Peiratis forces Maya back, and the three prepare to finish her off.

Peiratis: "You two get the Sabers. I'll deal with her."

Vrak and Vekar go to retrieve the Sabers.

Peiratis: "It was foolish to get in the way. Now you will pay the ultimate price."

Peiratis raises his sword above Maya.

Troy: "I don't think so!"

Peiratis turns his head to see the Rangers coming in on Galaxy Gliders. Each Ranger hits Peiratis as they fly by. Troy and John then lock arms, and force Peiratis back. Troy and John land and charge at Periatis with their Spiral Saber and Super Silverizer.

Troy: "Let's rock his world!"

Maya is shocked to see the Space Rangers.

Maya: "Andros!?"

The other Rangers go to stop Vrak and Vekar.

Vrak: "I'll deal with them. You keep trying to get these Sabers out."

Vekar: "I am trying, but they won't budge!"

Jake and Noah jump into the air with their Lunar Lance and Astro Axe in hand. Vrak manages to keep up with them. Emma and Gia attempt to fire their Astro Blasters at Vrak, who hits the blasts away and charges at the girls. Cut back to Troy and John's fight. Troy presses the number one on his Battlizer Gauntlet.

Troy: "Battlizer Gauntlet!"

Troy unleashes a barrage of strikes on Peiratis. John then comes in with his Super Silverizer in its blaster mode.

John: "Super Silverizer!"

Peiratis blocks every blast. John then attempts to swing his Super Silverizer at Peiratis, who catches it.

Peiratis: "When will you learn that I can't be stopped!?"

Troy: "Well we're here to stop you, whatever it takes!"

Troy jumps into the air with his Spiral Saber in its blaster mode. Troy presses the number three on his Spiral Saber.

Troy: "Spiral Saber, power up!"

Peiratis: "Nice try!"

Peiratis' eyes glow as a blockade of red energy surges from him, knocking the two Rangers back and out of Legendary Mode. Cut back to Vrak's fight. Vrak throws Emma and Gia off, and slashes both of them back. Noah then comes in with his Astro Blaster.

Noah: "Astro Blaster, fire!"

The blasts hit Vrak back. Vrak brings himself to his feet, as Jake comes in with his Lunar Lance.

Jake: "Lunar Lance!"

Vrak blocks multiple strikes, but Jake is able to pick up Vrak with his Lunar Lance.

Jake: "Alleyoop! Fire away!"

Emma and Gia come in with their Power Weapons.

Emma: "Sattelite Stunner!"

Gia: "Star Slinger!"

The blasts hit Vrak. Jake then throws Vrak towards Vekar, who is still trying to get a Saber out.

Vekar: "Come on you..!

Vekar notices Vrak flying towards him, who lands on Vekar.

Vekar: "Hey! Watch where you're falling!"

Cut back to Troy and John's fight. Peiratis picks up Troy.

Peiratis: "Power is destiny, and yours is to lose!"

John: "Troy!"

Peiratis: "Good bye!"

John: "Legendary Ranger Mode, Mighty Morphin White Ranger! Saba!"

Peiratis turns to see the Mighty Morphin White Ranger about to strike with Saba. Peiratis counters all of John's strikes, and eventually strikes John back and forces him to De-Morph. John lands by the rock holding the Quasar Sabers.

Peiratis: "Time to erase my greatest failure."

Peiratis walks towards John.

Troy: "John!"

Peiratis notices Troy and the other Rangers(Now in their normal suits) charging at them.

Peiratis takes out his trumpet and plays it. The SPD Shadow Ranger,White Mystic Ranger, the Mystic Wolf Warrior, and the Magna Defender appear.

Maya is shoced to see the Magna Defender.

Maya: "Impossible! How could you fight for evil!?"

Peiratis: "Deal with them!"

Peiratis' Rangers charge at the Megaforce Rangers.

Peiratis: "Farewell, Green Ranger.

Peiratis is about to strike John, but John sees one of the Sabers and grabs it. This time the Saber is pulled out with no problem. John uses the Saber and blocks Peiratis' strike, causing him to fall back.

Maya notices how John was able to pull the Saber from the stone. Maya remembers the words she spoke all those years ago when the Quasar Sabers were returned to the stone: "Maybe some day the next chosen warriors will free you." That has now come to pass. The next chosen warriors are here.

John realizes the Saber's power, but before he can think about it for too long, the Magna Defender comes in and kicks John away.

Vrak: "These Ranger Keys of yours pack quite the punch."

At this point everyone notices a light emerging from the spot in the stone where the Quasar Saber was. (The Lights of Orion)

Vekar: "Unbelievable."

Peiratis: "That's it. Vrak, capture them!"

Vrak: "It would be my pleasure!"

Vrak then holds up a device used for capturing the Lights of Orion. Vrak succeeds in capturing the Lights.

Maya: "No!"

Vrak: "I've got them!"

Peiratis: "Excellent! Now let's test this power out."

Peiratis,Vrak, and Vekar are about to leave with the Lights. Peiratis recalls his Rangers.

Vekar: "The power is ours!"

Jake: "It will never be yours!"

The Rangers attempt to chase after them, but Vrak unleashes the Power of the Lights on them. A huge explosion forces the Rangers back and to De-Morph.

Vrak: "Soon the entire galaxy will be ours!"

Close out Episode with the three villains laughing, and the Rangers unconscious on the ground.
