When I opened my eyes, I panicked, not knowing where I was. I took a few deep breaths, surveying my surroundings. Golden clouds of pure swirling energy, countless multicolored stars, rainbows and auroras as far as the eye could see. The stars were shining brightly and I could barely look at them for more than a minute. I looked around for my team, and turned around, seeing them all kind of floating, as there wasn't actually a surface to stand on. I willed myself to move towards them. "Where are we?" Kalina asked, as she and the others regained consciousness. "I don't know, but I think we're in the Morphin Grid." I replied. "That's impossible, isn't it?" Irene asked, doubt filling her pretty face. "Who knows? Anything is possible in our world." Halcyon replied. Selina and Sonora nodded in agreement. "Why are we here?" Sonora asked curiously, to no one in particular. Before any of us could reply, a deep masculine voice said, "To learn about your history. And the history of the Power Rangers Earth Force."
We turned around to see a purple skinned man wearing red robes. "Daddy?" I asked. My father nodded, smiling as I raced forward to hug him. "I've missed you too." He chuckled. "Why exactly are we here?" Sonora asked, his voice full of curiosity. "To learn about your history." My father repeated, and there were five flashes of light. My mother stepped out of the yellow light. Aunt Leana stepped out of the pink light. Aunt Senna stepped out of the blue light. Aunt Anya stepped out of the black light, and finally, Uncle Tyrus stepped out of the orange light. I felt my breath hitch when I saw my dead guardians. "How are you here?" I asked. "When Rangers die, their essence, their consciousness, becomes part of the Grid itself." Uncle Tyrus explained. I nodded. "We need to begin, we don't have much time." Aunt Senna said. "We will take you back to the beginning. Fifteen thousand years ago, on the planet of Eltar. " Anya explained, brushing her long black hair behind her shoulder. Tyrus waved his hand, and the Stars representing our team floated down.
"To begin, simply touch the Stars, and you will be sucked in, and viewing our memories." Leana explained, before adding, "Nothing will be able to hurt you." We all nodded, and touched our respective Stars, getting sucked into the memories. A second later, we were seeing a planet from space, my homeworld of Eltar. From space, it was a massive orange planet, about five times as big as Earth. We free fell toward the planet, and landed softly on soft silver grass. I looked around at my homeworld, looking for the magic academy my dad had mentioned once. "Over there." I pointed to a massive complex of buildings, each of which having tall spires. "That's amazing." Sonora breathed out in shock.
I nodded, and led my lovers to the buildings. We walked in the buildings, as I searched for one room in particular. I grinned when I found it. "In here." I said, pushing the door open, and frowning when no one paid attention. Daddy? I asked. You are only observers, not participants. He explained. "No one knows who the Dark Void are, or where they came from. All we know is they're among the most malevolent creatures in the entire universe." A woman with purple skin, and silver hair said. A man I recognized as my father raised his hand. "If I may, Syra, we don't know anything about them because the Morphin Masters won't tell us anything, and they deny the existence of evil on Eltar, because no one has dared to attack us." Zordon said, in a very blunt tone of voice. Syra scowled. "That's enough!" She snapped angrily. The six of us looked at each other in surprise.
"It's true though. The Morphin Masters are denying everything about evil. We have to be prepared, just in case they do decide to attack us." My mother said. "Silence! This subject is closed!" Syra ordered. "Having you been practicing for your exam?" She asked in a much softer voice. The entire class nodded. "Alright then. You already know the rules for the exam. Zordon, you're first up." She said. She snapped her fingers, and a magic ring formed around them, glowing with a blue aura. "Presshower!" My father commanded. The powerful water attack hit Syra, but she retaliated with, "Reflecloud!" Absorbing and returning the attack back at my father, who ducked.
Before they could continue, an earthquake shook the academy, causing the magic duel to be interrupted. "What's going on?" Zordon asked, as everyone held onto something to stabilize themselves. Syra's eyes were wide, while my father remained completely calm. "Zephyr, Anya, Senna, Tyrus, Leana. Split up, and wipe out any intruders who are attacking, and protect our fellow classmates. Now!" My father barked, and the five people went and did just that. The Voidlings entered the room, and were surprised to see my father readying his next attack of "Comprethunder!" The powerful red lightning attack obliterated the horrible undead creatures. Everyone stared at Zordon, and he said, "No time for dawdling. Let's get out of here, now!" Everyone followed behind him, before Syra turned around to grab a small satchel sitting in the drawer of her desk. Everyone left the academy, only to see a very disheartening sight. Their beloved Citadel, a massive clear dome encompassing an entire city, was being attacked by thousands of flying saucers. "That's impossible. No one would ever dare attack the Citadel." Syra breathed in horror. "Well, it's happening." My father retorted, before everyone was surrounded by the Voidlings.
Their general, a porcupine based monster with glowing golden eyes. "My name is Nyx. Surrender in the name of the Dark Void, or be destroyed!" She called. "Never!" My father yelled, and he began using various magics to wipe out the Voidlings. My mother and their friends ran up, and helped my father with the destruction of the footsoldiers. They were distracted by a bright glowing, and the bag that Syra was carrying burst open, and six different rings with glowing runes on them flew towards Zordon and his friends. Zordon's ring had the rune for fire. Zephyr's, earth. Senna's had water. Leana's, lightning. Anya's, metal. And Tyrus's had sun. The six were enveloped in a brilliant flash of bright light. They opened their eyes to find themselves in a beautiful star-scape. Golden clouds of pure swirling energy, countless multicolored stars, rainbows and auroras as far as the eye could see. A second later, the image of the Morphin Grid faded, and they found themselves in powerful suits.
"Forceful as Fire! Red Earth Force Ranger!" Zordon roared.
"Powerful as the Earth! Yellow Earth Force Ranger!" My mother yelled.
"Graceful as Water! Blue Earth Force Ranger!" Senna screamed.
"Bright as Lightning! Pink Earth Force Ranger!" Leana exulted.
"Tougher than Titanium! Black Earth Force Ranger!" Anya shouted.
"Shining like the Sun! Orange Earth Force Ranger!" Tyrus yelled last.
"It's our duty to protect this planet! United we stand! Power Rangers: Earth Force!"
The first Morph in Eltarian history was powerful enough to obliterate the saucers attacking the Citadel. Waves of pure rainbow colored energy flowed from the Rangers, and obliterated every last saucer, causing Nyx to scream in rage. She blasted the Rangers with streams of dark magic, but Zordon countered with another wave of rainbow energy, causing Nyx to scream in pain. Zephyr stomped the ground with her foot, and yelled, "Sparquake!" The powerful attack obliterated the group of Voidlings that protected their mistress. Nyx continued to fire blasts of magic energy, but Senna and Leana retaliated with "Presshower!" and "Comprethunder!" respectively. Nyx staggered back, and snarled in rage.
Anya and Tyrus blasted her with "Defenstone!" and "Radiablast!", the two powerful attacks hitting dead on. They called on their respective weapons, forming a powerful blaster. "Power Blaster!" The six Rangers called. They fired the blaster, and a wave of rainbow colored energy struck Nyx, causing her to scream in pain. She screamed in rage, and teleported away, causing the Rangers to cheer. They demorphed, and collapsed, groaning in pain. "Let's get them to the Healers, immediately." Syra yelled, and several Eltarian and other species picked up the Ranger team, heading back into the academy. They brought them into a room with several cots, placing each Ranger on a separate cot, and leaving. Syra stayed with her pupils. "What happened?" Healer Irin asked, the pretty woman looking over the students. "They Morphed, fought, and then collapsed. I don't know what happened." Syra said in a rush, worried for her charges.
Healer Irin nodded. "It's called Grid Overload. I've never seen it happen, as Eltar never had a Ranger team until now, but I've heard about it from Ranger teams across the universe. When a Ranger team Morphs for the first time, their bodies are bombarded with so much energy that it physically hurts because their bodies aren't used to so much energy being used at once. However, they're so focused on the battle at hand, that they don't feel the pain until they demorph. Depending on the energy backlash, they're lucky to survive." Irin explained, before adding, "I've heard the Supersonic Rangers of Planet Ryhner had the worst recorded experience with Grid Overload." Syra nodded. "They'll be OK? Right?" She asked. Irin nodded. "They'll be fine after some rest. They're strong, and will survive." She stated confidently, before an afterthought occurred to her, and she said, "You can wait here for them. I know how much you care for them." Syra nodded, and stayed there as Irin left, putting warm blankets on each of the new Rangers.
The memory faded, and we were sucked back into the Morphin Grid. "That was so cool!" Irene said. I nodded in agreement. "That must have been scary. Watching your homeworld get invaded like that." Selina said. Aunt Senna smiled at her compassion and nodded. "It was scary, but as you saw, we handled ourselves pretty well." She said. Kalina looked confused. "Why didn't we experience Grid Overload?" She asked. "Maybe because our first battle was easy." Halcyon replied. Uncle Tyrus shook his head. "Some teams are lucky enough to not go through it." He said. "What were those magics you used?" Irene asked. "The magic of the Megaforce." Aunt Leana said. "You guys taught me when I was growing up." I remembered. My mother nodded. "Do you remember any of it?" She asked. I blushed in embarrassment. "I'll take that as a no, then." She said, sighing. "Sorry." I said. "Don't worry, we'll be teaching you the magic, as another tool for your arsenal." My father stated.
