Chapter - Secrets of Neo orange - Guardian of the Royal Three!
Kiki opens her eyes as she finds herself trapped as she in a room. She has on different clothes like a jumpsuit of sorts. She looks down as she sees her pendent necklace showing as she normally keeps it hidden from others. She is restrained as she is laying on a patient bed. She notices an alien being coming towards her. "Who are you and what do you want from me"? Kiki asks the being.
The being looks at Kiki as he has an evil smirk on his face. "I am Eliastro. To think, a decision to keep the powers of the Royal Trio safe in a girl that descended from a red ranger". Eliastro said to Kiki.
Kiki frowns as she glares at Eliastro. "Leave my ranger ancestor out of this creep, and for the record, you have pissed off the wrong family member of mine". Kiki said to Eliastro.
Eliastro looks at Kiki as he presses her checks together. "You are definitely a special one. Everything will begin soon". Eliastro said to Kiki. He leaves the room.
Kiki sighs as she has tears falling down on her face. 'Guys, I am scared'. Kiki though to herself as she is trying to struggle in the restraints.
Back at the Cave, Daniel is in the med bay while the others are in the main ops. Wes got informed about what happened as he is stuck in Middleton a ranger matter with his team. He is pissed that Kiki is kidnapped again by the same fiend. Ash sighs as he got off the phone. "Wes knows guys, but he is stuck with a ranger matter in Middleton. My brother is in their because of that fiend. Plus Kiki is in a new hell hole, and we don't really know why". Ash said to them as he is frustrated by it. He looks like he wants to cry.
Leon and the others walk in the room along with Prince Alveno. "Perhaps I can explain everything to all of you". Prince Alveno said to them.
"I must explain things as well Rangers". Remius said to them as he appears to them.
The teens and the gang are surprised as they look at Remius. "You must be Remius". Leon said to Remius.
Remius nods as he looks at Prince Alveno. "You look like Prince Erino, and you do remind me of him". Remius said to Prince Alveno.
Prince Alveno looks at Remius as he nods to him. "Yes he is my ancestor. He told me about you". Prince Alveno said to Remius.
Remius nods as he looks at them. "It is time that all of you should learn the truth about my Chosen One Kiki". Remius said to them.
The teens look at each other as they look at Remius. "What do you mean"? Aiden asks Remius. The teens nod as they look at them.
Remius looks at them as he begins to explain it. "It all started long ago just a couple of weeks that the Underdog Squad Rangers defeated Crushmis and Captain Drakomus. My beloved daughter Rayma was trying to get to Earth and escaping from Alicestro. She brought two Gemstones with her. One of them is the Tiger's Eye Kirin, and the other one is the Sunstone Griffin". Remius said to them.
It hits the teens as the Sunstone Griffin is the very creature that is with her. "That is the gemstone power that Kiki has". Kara said to them.
Remius nods as he looks at them. "Yes my daughter bonded with a ranger named Sam who escorted Rayma to Eagleview. However Alicestro captured Sam when he sacrificed himself for her. As the Underdog Squad Rangers and the Mystic Knights came together, the two Gemstones that Rayma brought chosen Gwen the yellow Underdog Squad ranger and Daphne the Red Underdog Squad ranger. According to an old prophecy that the Sunstone Griffin's Chosen One is someone in the Ruby Dragon's Chosen one's blood line. When the battle to rescue Sam took place, the rangers managed to free Sam. However as Alicestro fired a beam at him, Rayma gave the ultimate sacrifice to save Sam. In doing so, the two Gemstones fully activated in Gwen's and Daphne's hands respectively. After the battle was over, the Sunstone Griffin took off to find its chosen one. It was found many years later by a young Guardian named Wes. He took responsibility to guard it and kept it safe. At that time, Sergiobot was creating trouble for the Star Descendant rangers. When it was out to get Wes, Rory was held captive to lure him out. It was in that battle, the Sunstone Griffin came to help the rangers. After that battle, I created the Orange Neo Defender Morphor. Once I found young Kiki, I recognized the essence of Daphne Donaldson Sanchez and give her the morphor. I told her when the time was right, you will join the rangers to defeat the evil forces". Remius said to them.
The two teams look at each other as they look at Remius. "So when you and Prince Erino talked about the Original Triad, it was the Ruby Dragon, the Onyx Griffin, and the Amethyst Angel. You must have given her the pendant". Roxy said to Remius.
Remius nods as he looks at them. "Yes I did. I remember when I gave it to her". Remius said to them.
Flashback
A young 11 year old Kiki is in her bedroom in Middleton. She is crying as it is the anniversary of being separated from Wes. "Why must people take the things and people that I care about"? Kiki asks herself as she is upset about it. Her head is in her pillow as she is upset.
All the sudden, a spirit of the Ruby Dragon appears to her as it is not alone. "There are beings who are very cruel that will do anything to take the things closest to your heart". Remius said to Kiki.
Kiki gets up as she notices a strange being and a dragon in her room. She is not afraid of them. "Who are you and why are you here now"? Kiki asks the being.
The being looks at Kiki as it has a pendant necklace. "I am Remius, and you have a powerful destiny waiting for you. I want you to have this pendant necklace. It is very special and important, so you must show this to anyone". Remius said to Kiki.
Kiki looks at the pendant as it is being placed around her neck. "But why though, isn't there other people better suited than me"? Kiki asks Remius.
Remius looks at Kiki as he shakes his head. "No you are the only one that can keep this safe for the right people to gain its power. You will know what to do when the time comes". Remius said to Kiki as he and the Ruby Dragon vanishes from her room. Kiki looks down on her pendant necklace. She hides it underneath her shirt as she fell asleep.
End Flashback
The teens are deeply surprised by the story. "So Kiki must have that necklace all this time and never said anything to us". Will said to them.
Remius nods as he looks at them. "Yes, it was a secret to keep the Royal Trio safe from the evil ones that desire the power". Remius said to them.
Blake looks at Remius as she has a question. "Any ideas on what Eliastro is going to do to her"? Blake asks them.
Harry looks at Blake as he frowns to her. "Why do you want to know that? It is bad enough that Kiki and Verna got kidnapped and tortured by Xolicernic. Our friend Wes felt the pain that she was going through". Harry said to them.
Eldon looks at them as it hits them. "Hold on some of us also felt that pain as well. We don't even know why though". Eldon said to them.
Remius looks at them as he has the answer. "When a ranger is in dire trouble, those who share the same ranger color, zord, or a familial connection will feel the pain as well". Remius said to them.
Leon looks at Remius as he remembers about it. "Yeah but why did James, Tabitha, and me felt that pain as well though? We don't share the same ranger color or zord. As far as I know, we are not related to her". Leon said to them. James and Tabitha nod in agreement.
Melissa looks at them as she thinks about it. "Actually Kiki shared something with me about her family from her father's side of the family". Melissa said to them.
This gets everyone's attention as they look at Melissa. "What do you mean Melissa"? Liz asks Melissa.
Melissa looks at them as Rory nods to her. "Kiki told me that her family is no stranger to estranged relationships and devastating news. The estranged relationship came from Kiki's father side of the family. Dominic and his half brother had a great relationship. It went to rocky at best when he met a woman named Martha. Dominic was married Sandra and on their first year of marriage at that time. He did not like Martha and didn't trust her. Word is that she got around the neighborhood. When Martha announced that she was pregnant, His half brother was thrilled through the roof while Dominic wasn't thrilled about it. He questioned the paternity because of her reputation of getting around. Dominic urged him to get a paternity test. Martha accused Dominic of trying to sabotage their relationship. The half brother decided to get the test done to prove to him that he is the father. As the baby girl came into the world, the paternity test was done. It proved that the half brother is the father of Martha's baby girl. For the longest time, Martha told Dominic various excuses why his family could not met their baby girl. The half brother went along with it. However one day when the baby girl turned two years old, Martha left the half brother and their baby girl behind. The half brother told Dominic the news. They wanted to help him raise the child. The half brother refused and said that he will raise her alone without the help of anyone. They did not talk for a year until Dominic wrote letters to him. As the letters continued, it was the only form of communication between them. However when the letters suddenly stopped, Dominic found out that his half brother passed away. He and his wife Sandra decided to take in their distant niece that they never met before. They went to Healing Hearts Foundation for help to find her. They got the ultimate devastating news that their employee did find her, but she was caught trying to kidnap her. The child escaped from her. As a result, the employee got assault charges and fired. Since then, Dominic never got a chance to meet his long lost niece". Melissa said to them.
The teens look at each other as it is a hard situation. "What was the name of the half brother"? Twyla asks Melissa.
Melissa looks at them as she reveals it. "His name was David Wilkerson". Melissa said to them.
The teens look at each other as Verna's eyes are bright orange meaning that Melissa is telling the truth. Leon and James look at each other wondering if their mom is the same woman in the relationship. Tabitha is trying to hide her emotions as she learns an unexpected truth. As the teens introduced themselves, they have no idea what is happening with Kiki at that very moment.
Back at the lair, Eliastro walks in the room as he looks at Kiki. "It is time now little girl. The power that you kept hidden to be taken from you". Eliastro said to Kiki. As he turns on a machine, an electric energy beam hits Kiki as is trying to take something from her.
Kiki is in pain as the electric power is on her body. She is trying to resist as she is putting up with the pain. "It will not be long until that power is mine Guardian". Eliastro said to Kiki.
As Kiki is in a lot of pain, she is trying to resist to scream. The Sunstone Griffin Gemstone is glowing along with the pendant necklace. As its power is combining, it is covering Kiki's body. Kiki is transforming into a half dragon and half Griffin.
Eliastro is taken back by this as he looks at Kiki. "WHAT", Eliastro yells out loud. The restraints are breaking completely as Kiki frees herself as she flees from the lair.
Eliastro frowns as he is not expecting this. "Gobots after her now", Eliastro yells at them.
Eliastro and Gobots are after Kiki as they are chasing her. Kiki is flying away as she busts out from the lair. Eliastro is following her as he is not expecting to chase her down again.
Back at the Cave, the teens are sparring as Daniel walk in the room. "Hey guys", Daniel said to them. The teens smile as Daniel is awake and well. "Daniel how are you feeling"? Mel asks Daniel.
Daniel looks at Mel as he nods to her. "I feel like a new man, but it still hurts that Kiki is still missing". Daniel said to Mel.
Verna looks at Daniel as she sees it in him. "You really like her don't you". Verna said to Daniel.
Just as Daniel says something, the alarm is going off. The teens look on the monitors as they are confused by what they are seeing. "She must have escaped". Rory said to them. "Yeah but she transformed into that". Melissa said to them.
Prince Alveno frowns as he sees Eliastro and Gobots chasing her. "The rangers must get to her now". Prince Alveno said to them.
"We better go guys". Ash said to them. "Right", Leon and the others said to them as they are leaving the Cave.
Remius looks at the monitors as it is his wizard power that she is unlocking. "The rangers has to get through to her without hurting her". Remius said to himself as the first of the wizard powers are unlocking.
At a rock quarry, the half Griffin/half dragon are roaring as Eliastro has Gobots surrounding it. "Face it Guardian, you are surrounded. No one is hear for you now". Eliastro said to her as a battle is about to get more complex.
