Deviot was in a good mood.
Ever since he arrived on Onyx, his luck turned right around! He went from having to fight for scraps of food to eating like a cannibalistic tink after a battle!
…cruel idea, but…not inaccurate.
Kicking over another dead alien, Deviot tilted his head as he eyed the dead man. He thought they'd be a lot harder to kill, but he was surprised, to say the least.
Hey, it at least meant easy looting, right?
His attention was drawn when he heard the doors part. Looking over, Deviot if he had skin would have paled when he saw just who arrived.
Four people; two guys and two girls. For a moment, Deviot thought they were just WEIRD bandits or offworlders…but something about them felt…off. He couldn't put his finger on it—
He cringed when in a bright light the four figures transformed. All at once, the room exploded into chaos, each of the newcomers fighting in new and chaotic ways that told Deviot, at last, why they felt so off.
They were fucking Power Rangers! The sort of guys who ate aliens like him for breakfast!.
Deviot ducked down behind the bar and covered his head, the alien huffing and puffing as he watched a window get smashed out, the alien using the opportunity presented and jumping out. He could see the shooting and mayhem transition outside, and he knew he had to get away, especially when the four utterly obliterated the reinforcement vehicles.
He took off running and—
BAM
Deviot Couldn't feel anything, but he was vaguely aware that he was on his back…and that he got hit by a car, amongst the chaos, went unnoticed.
…it was a shitty way to die.

Zach adjusted himself on the seat, resting his hands on his thighs as he looked to the three other rangers he found Onyx was well, for lack of a better word, weird as shite.
But, he learned pretty well in his travels that weird didn't mean bad…unless they were trying to kill him. Then weird meant bad.
"So," He rested his arm on the back of the seat and leaned over to look at the others. "You guys thinking we might be at a dead end here."
"I do not believe you are in the wrong spot, no," Xi spoke. "We all answered the call, for our own reasons."
"I am, yes." Kimberly spoke up, casually leaning back in her seat, looking out and down at the planet in orbit "I joined cause i had nothing else keeping me on Earth, my parents were gone, my powers gone and Xi said you guys needed help so i said yes."
"Well, we are glad you did" Jason said
"Yea, plus that kick on Tommy, you yeeted his balls" Trini said
Zack burst into laughter
" Ok lets get back down there and see what we can find out"
Zack took it back. He definitely loved being a power ranger.
Zack was the first to teleport down. This led to him coming face to face with a Cog unit. He regretted being the first one.
"Greetings! You're all here to join with my glorious army, right?"
For once in his life, Zack was tempted to just shoot someone in the face and be done with things.
Clearing the small jump and walking behind the others, the rangers looked to see a…well, a weird base up ahead. One that bore a banner saying 'Dark Spectre cometh' most likely, they were related to those fucks they smashed earlier.
"Trini," She looked up and flinched when she saw it was Kim who had called her, pointing her hand towards a rock that, seconds later, violently exploded.
"…okay what?"
"Trap it seems."
"Ah, gotcha." She gripped her morpher tighter ready for anything
"Quiet, recruits! I must antagonize the bandits!" Kim restrained her urge to curse the robot out. Namely because he had rolled up to the metal door, shouting and calling to get the attention of the bandits inside. Moze could already count seven holes in that plan, but she didn't care enough to mention it.
"Is he certain that's a good idea?" Trini asked. "I'm one for a fight, yes, but this is just leaving yourself open to get shot in the face."
"Let him do it." Zack shrugged. "If it works, we do our thing. If it fails, he gets shot in the…wanna say face, and I laugh. So far, it's probably gonna be the latter." The doors suddenly dented inwards and Cog went flying, being stuck to a magnet that was rapidly receding upwards.
"HEEEEEEEEEELP! RECCCCCCCCRRRUIIIITS!"
"…see, now it's just annoyin' again." For once, Kim had to agree with Zack. Jason was already in action, morphing as he pressed himself behind cover as they open fired at the rangers.
"Ugh, let's just…get this over with." Kim didn't hesitate to morph and call her weapon, jumping into the fray impaling bandits as she did.
Least they were dumb.
"We must push up," Jason said, motioning towards the magnet. "And find a way to free the Cog before more bandits arrive."
"I mean…do we have to, though?" Zack scratched his head. "He seems fine up there…probably. I guess." Kim ignored the robot's screaming. Once again, she found herself agreeing with Zack.
Besides, he'd be fine. Unless that magnet turned off. Then it'd be a hard fall.
The rangers stood over the bandit who called himself Shiv, Trini rolling her neck and Kim shaking her head. He was supposed to be tough shit; the head honcho of the place. They were disappointed he fell so fast, and left Kim itching for more.
"WHOOAAAAAA—ow." Thankfully, and unthankfully, Jason got the robot down. Trini and Kim watched as Zack ended the Cog..
Turning to step outside, distant shouts to catch their ears, more bandits poured into the area. Good. Now Kim had her fight.
The others stayed back as Km sprinted forward, throwing her fist at a psycho and sending him to the ground with a brutal haymaker, ignoring her weapon as she used her fists to beat down the intruders, a happy grin on her face under her helmet as she relentlessly pummeled the bandits. THIS was what she came for, and she couldn't be happier! Sure, they were just feeble mooks, but they'd sate her urge for a fight until they fought something…better.
And then the invaders were retreating. That wouldn't do.
"Hey! Get back here and fight me—" Something slammed her trident down atop them, quite literally incinerating the remaining bandits.
…the rangers teleported away…
Jason was amused. The hunt was done, and they were victorious. Granted, the three others survived, but…well setbacks had to be made. The Rangers could take all the time they needed. They had found some info on that Zordon had sent a message out across the universe, claiming the Omega Rangers to be evil.
And to top it off, they still had to meet SPD.
