I appreciate the responses I got to the crossover movie KoolKen and I worked on. This is taking place directly after the movie. I hope everyone enjoys. From this point on, things get worse for the gokaiger. As always, Super Sentai is owned by the Toei Company, and Power Rangers is owned by Saban.
Also, there will be an increase in language.
Deion huffed in annoyance as he looked out the window of the Galleon.
"Someone remind me, why are we here when we could be in Japan looking for the rest of the Grand Powers?" Deion said.
"Because While only a few days passed for us in that other Japan, a whole three weeks passed here, and the others have a lot of explaining to do to their family." Daisy told her friend, not even looking up from her book. After they had returned through the reality portal following their battles against the Arrancers and ThetaVron, they had been shocked to discover the time differential and immediately boarded the Galleon to head home.
"Besides, we did have our asses kicked pretty bad helping out those Shinigami guys; we could use a rest before we throw ourselves into the thick of it again." Said Kyle as he grabbed his coat.
"Where are you going?" asked Deion.
"A friend of mine hasn't answered the phone in days, even before we went to the other world. So I'm running over to check it out. Want to come?" he asked. Deion thought about it before shaking his head.
"Nah, I'd better get to work on repairs. Like you said, we got beat on pretty bad. Those patchwork repairs we made were good for a bit, but we go into battle with those, we're dead." Deion told him before getting up and heading down below.

Kyle arrived at the apartment, using his spare key to allow them access, immediately going into one of the rooms, which was pretty sparse.
"Where is everything?" he asked himself as he looked in a closet. "All of the Sentai merch is missing, even the Kamen Rider Den-O DVD Tommy left over here." Noting the laptop on the desk, Kyle sat down and discovered that it had powered down due to disuse, checking the history of the system.
"Last time it was used was…..four weeks ago? This is the same date Tommy and I came across Damijia."
Getting up, he searched the rest of the apartment. Everything seemed to be in place, nothing out of the ordinary. All of the money was still there, clothes all still in the closet and dresser. Only thing missing was the loads of Super Sentai memorabilia.
Sitting on the couch, Kyle grabbed his bouncy ball from his pocket and began to bounce it off the wall, trying to make sense of what he had found. After a few moments thought, he got up off the couch and headed for the door. Only thing to do was inform the Police: as much as it hated to do it, they weren't a missing persons Sentai; they didn't have time to go solving mysteries.

"Look, I'm sorry, I really am." Crystal told her parents.
"Three whole weeks Crystal. No call, no text, nothing. It was like you dropped off the face of the planet." Her mother said.
Not that far off Crystal thought to herself.
"And to make matters worse, Jessica has gone missing." Her father said. Crystal's eyes widened and she jumped up.
"Jessica! What happened to her?"
"We don't know, she never came back from school last week. We were terrified that you both were kidnapped." Crystal opened her mouth, but she was distracted by the sounds of her Moribites ringing. Glancing at the clock, she saw that it was still an hour from the meeting time with the other Gokaiger, but that didn't mean much, due to the bizarre nature of their "employment".
"Look mom, dad, I'm sorry, but I wasn't kidnapped, I'll see if I can find Jessica, but I have to go." She said, grabbing her backpack and running out the door, before her parents could stop her.

"So what's the big emergency?" Daisy asked once they were all assembled in a diner.
"Listen, I went to the police station to report my friends disappearance, and from everything I heard while I was there, it sounded like a lot of people have gone vanished within the last two weeks or so."
"My cousin Jessica has been missing since last week" Crystal said sitting up in her seat.
"That's odd. Granted people go missing, but this many so quickly in one area can't be a coincidence." Tommy said.
"I agree. I know we're busy with the Zangyack, but I think we should take a day or two and try to figure out what's going on. What do you guys think?" Kyle asked.
"I say we do it. It might not be Zangyack, but peoples kids are missing, and we should lend a hand." Deion said. Everyone agreed to the idea and began to plan on what exactly to do in order to.
Deion would be stationed at the police station to keep eyes and ears on them, in the hopes that they might overhear something useful.
Tommy and Kyle would be aboard the Galleon, trying to use the equipment to get a fix on some of the missing kids and compiling the clues into a picture.
Meanwhile, Daisy and Crystal would talk to Crystal's aunt and uncle and try to retrace Jessica's footsteps and figure out where she went missing.
After paying the bill for their drinks, the group got up and walked out of the diner.
"I don't like this plan. It seems too competent for us." Deion said, grinning. Everyone all turned to look at him, and sensing the impending danger, Gokai Green ran across the street and into the police station. From there, the group split up and began their tasks.

Tommy and Kyle flew onto the Galleon using MegaRanger and began to do their work. While Kyle activated the scanners to try and locate the missing kids, Tommy set up a large board and began to try to put something tangible in front of them so they can see the clues in front of their faces.
"So what did you find at Sam's place?" Tommy asked as he glanced over to Kyle.
"Nothing." He replied. Tommy paused and turned around.
"Nothing, no clues or anything?"
"You misunderstand. I didn't find ANYTHING at Sam's place. All the Sentai stuff there was gone, nothing I found even suggested someone lives there. It's like someone came in and took everything that matches Sam's personality and style. It wasn't ransacked, plenty of stuff was still there, money and everything. It's weird." Kyle explained.
Tommy shook his head. It was defiantly a mystery, one he hoped they could solve soon, for Sam's sake.

Crystal knocked on the door to her Aunt and Uncles house, Daisy standing next to her. After a few moments, her Uncle Bob opened the door.
"Crystal, everyone has been looking for you." He said once he saw her.
"Yeah, my folks gave me the riot act. Listen, we need to ask some questions about Jessica." She told him. Uncle Bob looked at her, then to Daisy.
"Who is she?"
"She's Daisy. She's my new friend. Listen Uncle, we're kinda in a hurry. Can we please come in and ask about Jessica?" Crystal pleaded. Her Uncle looked at her. He couldn't help but noticed something seemed different about her: a sort of maturity she didn't have before. After a moment, he stood aside and the two girls walked inside.
"Ok, so what was it you wanted to ask me?" he asked once they all sat down in the living room.
"Well, when did she go missing and where was it when she went missing?" Crystal asked. Her Uncle blinked a few times.
"She was heading home from her friend Sarah's house last week. Why do you want to know?" He replied.
"Well, I feel pretty helpless just sitting around waiting for someone to find her, so I'm going to do some looking around on my own." She said.
"The police have already searched that area thoroughly, I don't think you'll find anything they haven't." He told them.
"I know, but at least I would feel like I'm doing something other than waiting. We need to get going. Bye." Crystal waved as she and Daisy quickly left.
"Wait, your aunt should be home soon, don't you want to see her?"
"Can't Uncle. Got to go. Say hi for me." They shut the door behind them and ran off, pulling out their moribites as they ran, checking on the progress the others made and how they were heading to the cousins friends house, trying to figure out where it was she went missing, and if they can pick up a trail.
XpagebreakX
Daisy and Crystal walked on opposite sides of the street, trying to figure out where it was that she went missing. It had occurred to them on the way that the obvious trail would have been looked over several times before, thus Crystal had lead her friend to the path Jessica would most likely have taken, if she hadn't taken the usual way there. After a few minutes they hadn't seen anything, but they still had a ways to go. If they hadn't found anything by the end of the search, they would switch sides and look again, in case one overlooked something by accident.
After the two switched sides and began to look back on the trail. However, roughly just over half way back, Daisy noticed something that could pan out.
"Hey Crystal, what's that big building over there?" She asked, pointing to some large buildings not far away past the line of houses. The yellow Ranger crossed the street and looked at the area.
"Those are abandoned storage facilities. Last thing in there was about 2 years ago." She said.
"Any chance your cousin might have gone over there?" Daisy asked. Crystal shook her head, before pausing in thought.
"I don't think so, but then again what do we have to lose in checking it out. Come on." The two hopped a few fences until they reached the fence keeping trespassers out of the abandoned buildings. Eying the razor wire, the two split up and walked around, trying to find a way in. The met back up on the other side and compared notes.
"Nothing, you?" Crystal asked.
"Nope. No holes in the fence she could have crawled through, no gaps in the wire big enough to crawl through. So unless she's willing to shred herself apart on that wire, she didn't get in."
"Ok, well we didn't lose much time. Let's head back." The two female Rangers made their way back when Crystal noticed something.
"Wait, something's not right." She turned around and looked at the building for a few moments before she smacked herself in the head.
"No gate, there's not gate. How can you get into a place with no gate?" She asked. Daisy looked at her for a moment.
"You don't. That's kinda the point of why we know she isn't in there." The Pink Ranger replied.
"Why would a fencing company set up a fence all the way around, but not include a gate? How is the building supposed to be accessed for potential buyers?" The Yellow Ranger pointed out. Daisy thought about it and agreed with her friend, heading back to the fence.
"Ok, that's defiantly off. Come on, let's go into JetMan and fly over the fence." She suggested. Crystal shook her head.
"No need, we can get in without morphing." She said, drawing her saber. Slashing at the fence, she quickly cut a large hole in the chain links.
"Good idea." Daisy said after they had both crawled through. The two headed over to the entrance of the building, but stopped when several small explosions happened in front of them. Spinning, they saw a hoard of Gormin running out of a door in the side of the building.
"Well, things are getting interesting." Crystal said, as Daisy pulled out her Moribites.
"Guys, we have Gormin, at the warehouses off Main Street. We could use some help."
"We got your signal, hang on we're on our way." Deion said, Tommy also confirming he's on his way. Daisy and Crystal held up their ranger keys, folding them up and flipping open their Moribites.
Gokai Change: GOOOKAIGER
The two drew their weapons and charged at the foot soldiers, holding them off effectively. Grabbing some ranger keys, the two ducked under the club like weapons and slide their keys into the Moribites.
Gokai Change: OhRanger
OhYellow and OhPink used their fighting abilities to fend off the gormin for a time before drawing their weapons, Crystal using her nun chucks to pummel them while Daisy bounced attacks off her shield.
Seeing reinforcements approaching to help the Gormin, they grabbed her ranger keys, folding them up before witnessing Deion and Tommy arriving to help, using the hand held blasters of JetMan to provide aerial support before landing, holding up new Ranger Keys.
Gokai Change: GekiRanger
Charging at the hoard of enemies, the pirated GekiRanger used their hand to hand fighting skills to pummel and batter the gormin, defeating them all and leaving them sprawled among the area. Powering down, the four looked around.
"Wasn't Kyle supposed to join in?" Daisy asked.
"He said he'd be right behind me, that he had to finish something up. So, what's the deal with this place?" the blue ranger asked.
"Well, we checked this place out as a place Jessica might have gone, but we realized that there was no gate, no way in, which we found highly suspect. We cut our way in and we barely got 20 feet in before we got jumped by the trash patrol here." Daisy explained.
"Ok then, that's reason enough for us to take a look, missing kids or not." Said Deion as the group ran over to the door the gormin left open. One inside, they found a multitude of Zangyack weaponry, armor and other such equipment.
"This looks like some sort of weapons cache. Zangyack must have acquired this to place to use as storage for their gear." Crystal said as she opened and crate and examined what appeared to be some sort of explosive detonator.
"That doesn't make much sense, why would the Zangyack use a human warehouse, rather than keep it up in orbit with their ships? Not to mention how would they go about acquiring the warehouse and putting up the fence? Something doesn't seem right about that." Deion said, looking around.
As the group cataloged the items found Daisy's Moribites began to ring. The group gathered around her as she answered it.
"What do you want Kyle?" she asked.
"Wow, lots of annoyance in that voice. What'd I do?" he asked.
"You didn't show up to fight for one, where are you?" She replied.
"Still aboard the galleon: while you guys are inside that warehouse, the gormin escaped and I tracked them to another building not far from you guys. What's so interesting in there anyway?"
"Zangyack Storage Depot. They've got loads of weapons and gear hidden away in crates." Tommy said, speaking over the Pink Rangers shoulder.
"That could be useful. I'll bring the Galleon over and we'll load up what we can and maybe find a better use for them then what they were intended for. Hang on for a few." He said as he disconnected the call.
"We're fine, don't worry about us." Deion sarcastically said as the group chuckled. Twirling their guns, they shot a large hole in the wall, the men carrying crates outside while the girls watched, cheering them on with grins. After a few minutes the Gokai Galleon sailed overhead, dropping several cables with hooks attached.
While the men attached the hooks to the crates for them to be lifted, the girls went up aboard the ship and helped Kyle put them in a storage room aboard the ship, making sure to keep the detonators in a separate room from the explosive devices. Once the last of the equipment was aboard, along with Deion and Tommy, the crew set sail for the building the gormin had fled to as the group traded progress reports. So far, no one had found anything useful out, and with the Zangyack involved in something they were forced to take a break from their search.
"Ok, this is the place the Zangyack fled to, an abandoned office building. Man, I never really realized how many abandoned buildings Detroit has." Crystal said as the group made their way to "jump room", the name given to the room where they drop down and go up using the cables. After reaching the surface the group quickly made their way to the side door, Tommy picking the lock allowing them entry.
Walking inside, the searched the rooms very methodically and professionally before determining that nothing was on the first floor and headed to the stairs. Once they reached the second floor they began to once again searching the rooms before the sounds of many footsteps from upstairs caught their attention. Regrouping the five spotted Gormin running at them. Flipping open their Moribites, the group transformed into Gokaiger, before changing straight into another Sentai.
Gokai Change: Denzimen
Smacking their DenziKnuckles together, the five made a line and played Rock'em Sock'em Robots with the Gormin's faces, easily sending them all back and beating them.
After knocking the last one back, the group heard evil laughter coming from up the stairs. Running over and looking up, the group saw a voodoo creature at the top of the stairs.
"Juju, from the KakuRanger tribute episode?" Crystal asked, having been watching the Gokaiger shows to try and get better at her Sentai knowledge, glad to see some nods from her teammates.
"Well well, looks like we have someone from the show this episode. Let's mess him up." Tommy said, cracking his knuckles.
"You want to fight do you? Ok then, how about instead of lowly gormin, you pirates instead fight my goblin hoards?" he said, waving his arms, summoning dozens of very pale humanoid figures with huge hair and claws.
"Ok, we can do that." Kyle said, holding up a new ranger key.
Gokai Change: Liiiveman
The group was about the charge at the mini-enemies when Crystal let out a yell of shock.
"That's Jessica, that one right there, I'm sure that's her." She cried out. The group stumbled and took a second look.
'Now that you mention it, their faces to seem familiar." Deion said.
"You've got to be fucking kidding, the goblins are the missing kids. JuJu must have cast a spell on them.
Kyle said.
"We can't risk hurting them, we need to get to double ugly up there." Daisy said.
Taking fighting poses, the group charges forward, trying to make their way through the possessed kids without hurting them. A task proving very difficult due to the sharp claws and teeth of the kids: what's worse, they couldn't get a clean shot at JuJu due to the hoards of kids.
"We can't get past right now. Come on, let's pull back and pull together a game plan." Kyle said, grabbing some kid who was biting his leg, tossing her at the goblins before shoving another off Crystal before the group began to retreat, running downstairs, demorphing as they did so.
Unfortunately, as they ran outside and shut the door they were blinded by a powerful spotlight.
"Freeze, hands in the air." The authorities voice of a police officer demanded, a few more cruisers pulling up behind it. Slowly the five began to lift their hands in the air, doing as they were told. After being searched and having their moribites and ranger keys confiscated, (their swords and guns apparently not being felt by the officers during the search due to some sort of strange Sentai clothing weapons logic that no one bothered to question) they were read their Miranda rights and placed in handcuffs, being told that they were to be brought to the police station on charges of trespassing.
After a trip around town they arrived at the Detroit Police Station. After being brought in they were lead up the stairs, and sat down on some benches. After waiting a few minutes to be booked the officers got them and was about to take them to another room when a voice called out for them to stop. Daisy, Deion, and Crystal immediately noticed the way Tommy and Kyle tensed at the sound of the voice, their body language indicating annoyance and displeasure. A tall man, slightly balding with an ok build for middle age walked over to them with a smug look on his face.
"Well what do we have here? I guess I shouldn't be surprised you two got dragged in sooner or later. Absent your usual musketeer I see, but you have new playmates. I'll make sure to come over and say hi to you guys later on. Unfortunately, I have police matters to deal with: I've got a lot of missing kids to find after all." He said, in amusement.
"Well Detective , with you in charge of finding the lost kids of this city, I'm sure the guilty party will sleep easy knowing that there's no chance that they'll ever be found." Tommy shot at him.
"Don't you talk that way to me, In fact, I'll bet you two and that Sam brat have something to do with this!" He almost yelled, getting red in the face. The others shot glances at each other, wondering what the story was.
"That's such a pathetic stretch I'm not even going to bother wasting my time trying to think up a comeback." Kyle said, his face exuding boredom.
"You two may be talking tough now, but you aren't so high and mighty. Sooner or later, you and your murdering friend will shoot yourselves in the foot and I'll laugh. But for now I can't waste my time with you anymore." The detective said, motioning for the officers to take them away. Deion, Crystal, and Daisy all noticed the anger on their friends faces at the mentioning of a "murdering friend". They would have a story to tell later.
To Be Continued.
And here's the story, I hope it was worth the wait. It's quite different from my previous chapters, but that's also the point. Part 2 will be out in a few weeks, after I work on some other chapters. Also, I know some people spell Denziman as DenjiMan, but to be honest I've seen it spelt both ways.
