House of Power Rangers

Chapter 1: House of Rangers

Nina Martin. The American. The old newbie. The leader of Sibuna. The chosen one. Nina Martin wasn't going back. She couldn't. Pretty soon the world was going to need her… again. Nina wasn't your typical, go to school, do your homework, go to sleep type of girl. No, she was more of the find the evil guys, go to school, train, do your homework, save the world, go to sleep type. This may seem a little weird and quite overwhelming for the average seventeen-year-old, but Nina's life has not been normal since she was five years old. Quite the opposite really, everywhere she goes. She's never really had anything different so she doesn't mind too much though.

"Nina, get up. We're almost there," Eddie says softly, shrugging his shoulder gently.

"But we're not there yet now are we?" she replies not moving her head or opening her eyes to which he just rolls his.

Eddie Miller was her best friend. Her best American guy friend. Her B.A.G.F. as Amber would put it. After discovering her was her Osirian, essentially her protector, they also conveniently found out they live in the same city so naturally they hung out a lot more, growing a lot closer than before. He was going back though. Nina was just escorting him in the cab to the airport for his flight to Liverpool, England.

"Nina," Eddie whines trying to get the girl off his shoulder.

"Eddie," she mocks, unmoving. He gives up shaking, letting the girl smile in victory.

"Fine," he groans. "But I'm sure this will come in handy one day." Before she can even question what he's talking about she's hears the click of a camera and all feelings of tiredness leave her as she sits up, reaching for the phone.

"Eddie delete it!" She exclaims as he puts it just out of her reach, opening his gallery to look at the photo.

"Um, no," he laughs as she struggles.

"Knowing you that photo could get me killed one day!"

"And you will be missed dearly," he replies patronisingly to which she just punches his arm as the cab driver looks back at the two teens and smiles.

"Aw why? I think it's cute," he mocks.

"That's exactly what Amber will say before she starts to scrapbook it."

"Delete. Delete. Delete!" Nina just laughs at her friend's frantic reaction. "and it's gone."

"Good. You have more than enough photos of me," she says shaking her head as the taxi driver announces they're arriving.

Neither of them knew what to say or do. They were currently in the airport, as far as Nina could go. They knew they would have to say goodbye, but it was a lot harder than anticipated on both sides. Eddie had no idea when he would see his friend again, it could be next term, it could be next year, it could be even longer than that. He was one of the few people in the world to know what she had to stay behind for. What he couldn't stay and protect her from. As not only her friend but as her Osirian it was an extremely hard thing to do but he knew he had to trust her. It was exceptionally hard on Nina too. She didn't get to say goodbye to her friends, her house mother, even Victor and Sweetie. Amber. Fabian. She was just suddenly disappearing from their worlds. Cutting off all ties with them. Eddie was the final one. Words can't be enough, so she steps forwards, hugging him. He almost immediately returns the gesture.

"I'm going to miss that place. All the mysteries, Sibuna, the people…" she trails off. "I'm going to miss you, Eddie. So much."

"I'll miss you too, Nina," he says pulling away to see her eyes glistening with tears yet to fall. "But we have our phones. Well, I have my phone, you'll have… that thing. And I have your fake real email. Besides, I'll be back in the summer. Hopefully you guys will be sorted by then." She just smiles a watery smile, trying to blink back tears. "Hey, did you know that your sweat kinda smells like cinnamon." She can't help but laugh at his random fact.

"That was completely irrelevant. And how often do you smell me?" she questions.

"I've been around you this whole holiday. I notice things and look, you're smiling!" She just shakes her head before reaching around her neck and pulling her eye of Horus locket off.

"Here, take this. It'll be more useful there than here. And give this to Fabian please." She hands him the locket and a letter from her back pocket. "I won't be able to contact you a lot, but I'll try. Don't tell anyone though. You know why," she explains, shoving her hands into her jean pockets.

"Of course."

"This is the call for flight 231. The gates are now open," a female voice announces through the speakers.

"That's me," he sighs. He reaches down, picking up his bags.

"Yeah, you should go. Oh, and I hope you sort this whole thing out with Patricia."

"Don't worry about it. You should go. The world's going to need you pretty soon." She just smiles as he puts down one of his bags to hug her once more.

It had been a few days since Eddie left. He sent her an email once he'd landed in England and they'd talked a bit, but they knew they would have to begin cutting down the amount of time they communicate. She was still living with her gran of course, so at the moment they were fine to talk as they liked but pretty soon it would have to stop.

"Nina go shower! Dinner's almost ready!" Her grandmother, Evelyn, calls. The girl was outside in the back garden training but the idea of food stopped her immediately. She hadn't eaten since around seven in the morning.

"Coming gran!" She yelled back. "Come on," she says, holding out her hand to her wolf folding zord, waiting for it to climb into her hand. She rushes up to her room to grab a towel before heading into the bathroom.

"Am I late?" she gasps once she reaches the kitchen, her hair still slightly damp.

"Just in time." They begin eating their meal (macaroni cheese with some vegetables) on the chairs in the living room, watching a TV show about an English girl who starts at a boarding school in America with a lot of secrets.

"Dinner was delicious Gran," the dirty blonde says as she finishes washing their plates. "I think I'm going to get an early night though. Training wore me out." She begins walking over to the stairs when her grandmother speaks, "Nina wait. I know I do this a lot because we don't know but honestly I really do think they're going to call soon. That's why I didn't think you should go back." Nina opens her mouth to tell her it's okay but she continues talking before she can. "But when they do call, you're going to have to leave immediately so I just need to say this in case I don't get the chance to later.

"You have grown up to become such strong, intelligent, independent, beautiful young woman. I am so proud of you. Everything you've been through, you've been able to get through it, you never let it keep you down for long. You are just like your parents yet your own person. They would be so proud that even without them here you have become just as great as them and you've barely even started yet! I love you so much, Nina," she finishes, smiling. Nina rushes back over to her gran, hugging her tightly.

"I love you, gran! Thank you so much for raising me and training me and everything you've done for me."

"You made it easy for me," Evelyn chuckles, releasing the girl. "Now go rest. You've earned it."

"Good night gran," Nina smiles heading towards the stairs once more.

Nina was alone in the house the next morning. Her gran had a couple of hours ago to go shopping whilst Nina was left to do her work. Of course Nina had offered to do it, but Evelyn refused the help saying Nina had schoolwork to do. Just because she wasn't going to school did not mean she was exempt from schoolwork; she was going to be working from home. It was when she was working on history that she heard the knock. A single rap on the door. She got up from her chair at the dining table going over to the door, confused. They weren't expecting anyone or anything today and her gran would've just entered if it was her. She opened the door but no one was there. She opened it wider walking out a little to see if someone left anything but she found nothing. It was when she turned back to the house that she found the source of the noise. There was an arrow with a purple tail in her door. She acted quickly after that; she grabbed the arrow, read where they would be meeting, grabbed her bag then left the arrow on table she was just sitting at. Evelyn would understand.

She found the place relatively easily. It took a while to get there but she made it. Most of them were already there when she arrived; two guys and two girls. Just one was missing by her count.

"You guys must be the rest of the team," she says walking towards the group.

"Hi! Is it you? Are you the red ranger?" The blonde with curly hair asks her.

"No, purple. I'm Nina," she waves.

"I'm Emily," the blonde replies.

"My name's Mia," a girl with black hair smiles.

"Kevin," the African American guy in the blue zip up hoodie nods.

"The name's Mike," the guy in the green jacket says. Before anyone can say anything else, a horse whinnying grabs their attention, guy on top wearing a red plaid shirt. "With an entrance like that you have to be the red ranger!"

The guy reveals his lion folding zord. "Yes, I am the red ranger. Let me warn you now, if you come with me now there's no turning back. Either we defeat the Nighlok together or they take over the world. I will give this to only those willing to accept the challenge." He steps down from the horse, showing them his samuraizer. "Do not accept because you were trained to do so. Accept only if you're willing to commit and fight as samurai power rangers who will commit and fight."

"Without hesitation," the blue says almost immediately.

"I've been planning for this since I was a little girl. So yes," Mia nods.

"I'm ready to give it all I've got!" Emily smiles surely.

"Okay, okay do we have to be so formal? Let's do this thing!" Mike exclaims.

"Let's see. Join this team or let the world be taken over by evil guys? Yeah, I'm in!" Nina exclaims, stepping forward to join the rest of her team. The red ranger walks back over to the bag on his horse, pulling out five more samuraizers. He tosses one to each of them, each ranger catching their own.

"Let's go."

The rangers survived their first battle. They hadn't even made it past the gate to the house when they were alerted by Jayden that a Nighlok had entered the human world. The six rangers morphed, the sudden flow of power giving them the energy they needed for their first fight. The rangers were just about able to each hold off their own group of moogers but when they seemed to multiply as they attacked Jayden was able to help out his team with his fire smasher, six of them coming together to take out the moogers.

The rangers spend their walk home exhilarated by their first win as a team, taking their time to get to know each other. Nina was walking with Mia and Emily. They were very different, very interesting girls; they were going to get on just fine. As they walked further though, Nina realised Jayden was walking on his own. She excused herself from the conversation to go talk with him.

"Hey," she smiles.

"Hi Nina. You did great today," he replies looking down at her as they walked ahead of the group.

"Thank you," she says, quieter though, not wanting the others to hear. "And it's good to see you again." Jayden pauses mid-step for just a fraction of a second, but Nina sees it still.

"It's good to see you too although I wish it was under different circumstances."

"Me too… but since we are in this situation I have to ask, we're not going to tell them are we?"

Jayden glances at her from the corner of his eye, just to make sure they're thinking to same thing, before looking ahead as he shakes his head, "It's best that we don't. Not now at least."

"It's too early, yeah. I thought so. Besides, the less people who know, the better." Unbeknownst to the two of them however, Mike, who hadn't been too far behind the two heard their whole conversation and was left pondering what exactly the two of them weren't telling the team.

There's a moment of silence between the two before she speaks again. "So, your entrance this morning. That was something."

"Too much?" He chuckles.

"Like maybe this much," she says putting a bit of space between her thumb and index finger, "was needed." She replies laughing with him as the two of them come to a stop right outside a large gate, the other rangers following their lead as Jayden steps forwards to open the gate, Nina gasping once she sees the house.

"Rangers," Jayden says, turning back to them. "Welcome to your new home."

"Whoa, this place looks crazy!" Mike exclaims, rushing forwards past the gates with Kevin shaking his head at him as he follows, still smiling though.

"It's even more beautiful than I imagined," Mia grins.

"You're telling me," Emily replies. However, when Nina just stares in awe, she touches her shoulder.

"Sorry, Mia just took the words out of my mouth," she smiles, looking between the remaining three as they walk through the gate. "I can't believe we're going to live here."

It was heart-breaking but looking back at her new teammates and leader… this may not be so bad.

So that was chapter one! If you enjoyed this and want me to keep updating, just let me know in the reviews. Thanks for reading!
