Nomadic Countdown
Disclaimer: Something I thought up a long while back but never got aroud to until now. Apologies for taking so long to update this fic as well. Basically, this idea is one where Jason from the original 90s show took to a more… Nomadic lifestyle on a motorcycle thanks to Rita and Zedd having decided to put a bounty on him a little while after he left for the Peace Conference with Zack and Trini. This takes place after the In Space team is defeated and kinda takes a cue from the Sentai Crossover that featured all three (I think?) Dino Ranger teams and the Go-Busters.
Summary: Jason's Nomadic lifestyle has come to an end thanks to the Alliance of Evil's efforts.
"Greetings, Earthlings, I am Astronema!" Declared the Princess of Evil as she projected an image of herself for all of Earth to see.
"And under the command of Dark Spector, I, and the rest of the Alliance of Evil have taken the Universe! Any resistance has been met and defeated, including the armies of this world and the Power Rangers themselves! Cease your continued yet useless efforts to fight back and surrender to the inevitable world that Dark Spector looks to create. Where there is no love, joy, or any other feeling that resembles goodness in any shape or form."
Various responses from many across the world was heard and she merely smirked. "If you won't listen and do the smart thing by my words and my forces actions alone, then perhaps you'll listen when I show you my prisoner." She stated and making many wonder about that as two Aliens brought forth a figure with a bag over his head and placed him next to the woman known as Astronema.
Astronema quickly ripped off the bag and gasps were had by many, especially the few who knew the figure as Jason Lee Scott. His face looked rather horrible as well thanks to the fact he'd clearly been beaten up by Astronema's forces. The evil woman turned her attention back to the masses of the Earth with that cruel smirk still in place. "This, Earthlings, is Jason Lee Scott. The first Red Ranger of this miserable planet that was chosen by Zordon himself. His constant moving about to escape the bounty placed upon him by Lord Zedd and Rita Repulsa has proven fruitless in the end! He and Zordon are MY prisoners and they will soon face their ends as Dark Spector has decreed it!"
She even moved aside and allowed for a floating face in a tube to be seen. Making many think this was the Zordon she spoke of. "You'll never win, Astronema! You hear me!? The Rangers will find a way to beat you and the rest of your friends! Just like we've done with every other monster sent our way!" Jason declared defiantly, only to receive a hit to the head by the staff Astronema carried with her.
"If that's what you want to think, Little Red, then who am I to tell you otherwise?" Replied the Princess of Evil with that cruel smirk of her's as he righted himself and stared up at her with anger in his eyes and blood pouring down the side of his face thanks to her blow.
"But if I were you? I'd be telling these fools you've wasted time protecting that they are all better off surrendering themselves unless they wish to be destroyed."
Astronema turned her attention to the people of Earth. "Surrender or be destroyed, your choice, Earthlings!"
And with that, her image vanished, along with Jason's. Confident that her successful capture of the first Red Ranger of Earth would be enough to make the fools give in to the inevitable. Not knowing this would only spur them on further to resisting her as those who knew Jason personally began to make plans to enter the battle and save him and their mentor.
