And here is the next chapter: Time for Silver.
As always, thanks to KoolKen, Son of WhiteBeard, Greyking, MegaRanger, and Drago for reviewing, and whoever read the story but didn't review.
T'was the night before whatever day it was next, and all through the Gokai galleon, not a creature was stirring. At least that was before the Galleon began to shake as a surprise Zangyack raid woke them all up.
Now if there was one thing more dangerous than the six gokaiger, it was six gokaiger who were awake at 4:30 in the morning rather than sleeping. The five gokaiger changed and ran into the Galleon battle room, forming the GokaiOh while Sean would back them up using the GokaiTank.
Ducking under a swipe from a Sugomin, the five slide Ranger Keys in the helms and turned them. the Giant Mecha slashed at one of the large blue enemies and elbowed another. The hatches opened up on the GokaiOh and the MagiDragon flew out and began flying around the Sugomin, trapping them in a trio if magic circles then bombarded them with magic energy.
As they got ready to stand down they were struck from behind by a fourth Sugomin, who eagerly kept up the attack, until a blast from the Gokai Tank made an opening for the GokaiOh to blast it with the gokai Starburst. After making sure they were cleared of enemies, they returned to the Galleon and resumed sailing.
"What took you so long to back us up?" Deion asked Sean as they gathered in the main room. The newest pirate, who looked embarrassed, sat down and tried not to look at them.
"I….kinda got lost." He finally said. Everyone looked at him in shocked. "It's pitch black out there, and I had a hard time figuring out how to work the night supportive systems aboard the Tank.. Plus, we were up pretty late last night fighting gormin. I had only been asleep for an hour and a half when I was jostled out of bed."
The group chuckled and demorphed, many of them realizing it felt colder than usual. A quick check of their attire revealed to them that they were still in their sleepwear, causing them to run back to their rooms in embarrassment.

AlphaVron growled as he stormed into Deltavron's workshop, not bothering to alert her to his approach. When the doors opened and he entered, he was grabbed and tossed across the room, slamming into the wall. As the quickest of the Vron's tried to regroup, he heard his oldest sister's voice.
"Stand down Gotengo!" Alpha looked over and saw the modified Matrintis battle machine created by the late GammaVron, destroyed by the Gokaiger, and apparently rebuilt by Delta.
"That hunk of metal tired to thrash me!" Alpha said as he got up.
"You were told to notify me when you approach. I was working on the ZhanJi project, you know what would happen if that fool Gil or one of his ilk find out about it before we're ready!" Delta growled to him as she closed the secret door to the room. "That being said, you arrival is rather well timed. Daramas questioned why I haven't been sending down creatures to attack the gokaiger. You naturally know why, but I can't risk him or insarn getting suspicious and poking their noses in the workshop. I'm planning on sending Gotengo to battle them again."
"That's right, you were sent here to help conquer the planet. And you haven't even helped plan a mission since your arrival. If you don't do something soon, he'll get suspicious of what your really up to." Alphavron said nodding. Delta rubbed her temples.
"Alpha, I already knew all of that. Why did you feel the need to explain it all?" She asked annoyed as she checked on another project she had been working on. Alpha growled under his helmet and turned.
"Ok gotengo. You're with me. We'll have to get permission to go to Earth, but that shouldn't be hard. We tell Gill that we have a plan of attack and we won't be able to leave the ship fast enough." Alpha said as Gotengo grabbed some weapon armors from the wall. "So sister, what do I tell Daramas and Insarn when they ask why this robot won't be defeated again?'
Deltavron didn't even look up from her terminal, just slid a datapad across the table to him.
XpagebreakX
"Lord Walz Gil, I request permission to go to Earth and lead at attack against the Gokaiger." Alphavron said as he and Gotengo arrived on the bridge. The leader of the Zangyack Space Empire sat up in his chair and stared at the machine, trying to remember when he had last seen the robot when it occurred to him.
"I remember that machine. Those pirate rats destroyed it once before!" he said once he realized where he had seen it before.
"With respect my lord," It killed AlphaVron to have to refer to Gil as being his superior, but he was more than skilled enough to keep anything from entering his voice or his actions. "Gotengo was only damaged. He has been upgraded since the original battle. They will find it much more difficult to best this time. And if you recall, they had difficulty during the original battle."
Walz gil scratched his chin in thought before nodding.
"Very well, attack those accused pirates." As Alpha and Gotengo prepared to leave, they were stopped by Insarn.
"My lord, it appears the pirates have left America." She reported.
"Where are they going?" Daramas asked.
'It appears they are once again heading to the area of land called "Japan." As you know, they attempted to go to that land in the past, but were sucked into the dimension anomaly."
"Where they were followed by Thetavron, only to return weeks later back in America." Gil remembered. "It will be difficult for us to attack them while they cross the oceans, so we shall wait until they arrive. Now if you excuse me, it is time for my bath."
It took all of his willpower for AlphaVron to not snarl as the Space Commander left the room, followed by Barizorg. Alpha turned and motioned for Gotengo to follow him as they returned to Delta's lab. It seemed they would have to wait.

When Sean woke up the next morning, he looked out the window, and was shocked to see only blue skies and blue oceans. After a quick shower and a change of clothes, he headed to the main room, where he saw the gathered gokaiger, minus Kyle, sitting at the table eating.
"You know, this may be the first time I've seen Daisy without Kyle's arm wrapped around her." He said as he sat down at the table, leading to amused chuckles from the others. "So, where are we?"
"Somewhere over the Pacific Ocean I think. Kyle decided that it was time we got back to work. So we're heading to Japan in the hopes of gathering the rest of the grand powers. We haven't gotten any since the Power Rangers gave us theirs back in New York a while ago." Deion said as he ate breakfast.
"In a few hours we're going to have a training session up on the deck, want to join?" Tommy asked Sean, who nodded as he put some food on his plate and started eating.
XpagebreakX
Sean somersaulted backwards, landing on his hands and springing back even more, putting distance between him and Deion, before dropping low for a leg sweep, which was blocked and found himself in an ankle lock, which he immediately rolled through was about to follow up when Tommy came up and grabbed him, but Sean managed to slip out and roll away. He caught Tommy with a spin kick, and was about to press his advantage when out of the corner of his eye he saw Deion and Kyle going at it and paused.
Blow for blow, kick for kick, elbow for elbow, punch for punch, the two fought an even and very fast paced fight. Sean watched in amazement as the two fought. Tommy stood next to him and rested his elbow on the black rangers shoulder.
"That's right, you haven't seen these two go at it before. It's quite a sight to see." Tommy said with a grin.
"Red and Green rangers going at it in an intense martial arts battle. Reminds me of the Green with evil saga." Sean said, watching.
"That's right, you don't know do you?" Crystal said as she and Daisy walked over. Sean looked at her curious."Both Daisy and Deion were trained in martial arts by Jason David Frank, original Green Ranger. Small world."
Sean blinked in surprise and glanced at Daisy who nodded. Glancing back at the two sparring rangers, he was shocked to see that the two had both gone for jump spin kicks and were fighting back to back.
"Deion's trained by Jason David Frank and Kyle's fighting him dead even. I don't know if that means Kyle is a natural fighter or if Deion just plain sucks." Sean said, causing everyone to laugh.
As Sean watched Deion and Kyle fight, he felt the muscles in Tommy's arm twitch, and ducked, dodging the kick Tommy had aimed at him and gave him a shove. The slight pressure combined with the shock the kick had missed caused Tommy to fall flat on his face. Sean then ran over and leapt, tackling both Deion and Kyle, sending them to the ground.
"I win." The black Ranger said with a laugh, helping the two up as Tommy was helped up by Crystal. "I hope that proves that just because I'm the youngest of the group, I can hold my own. I can do anything you guys can do."
"Really?" Kyle said with a smug smirk. "Go buy me a bottle of rum and a pack of cigarettes."
Sean groaned in annoyance and bolted after the pirate captain.

Tommy sat in his usual chair in the living room of the galleon, deep in thought. Recently he had began to wonder about his place aboard the Galleon. He couldn't help shake the feeling he wasn't cut out to handle this. Sure he had some good moments, and he was the only one who could truly operate alot of the more complex devices aboard the Galleon: but he constantly found himself coming up short in dealing with the Zangyack's forces. With increasing frequency, he found himself unable to handle intense moments, requiring assistance from the others. He couldn't even take down Sean when he had the perfect opening.
Gormin and Sugomin he could handle ok, but once the action commanders appeared on the field he found himself out of his league. He loved hanging out with the team, and he loved the thrill of being GokaiBlue, but if the team was suffering because of his inability to handle difficult battles maybe it was time that he stood back and let them find someone else to handle the position, while he could handle the technical aspects needed to locate Grand Powers.
He shook himself out of his thoughts and decided to focus on one more mission. If he couldn't deal with it on his own, then he would talk to the others about finding a replacement. Walking over to the trenger chest he closed his eyes and opened it up, rummaging through the keys, picking one at random. Whichever key he found he would do an independent investigation and find an owner for that power, assuming it was one that still lacked a Grand Power. After a few moments he held up a key and glanced at it.
Beet Buster.
Nodding, he left a note for the others and headed out. Hopefully he would prove it to himself that he truly did belong in the group.
XpagebreakX
Meanwhile, the Gokaiger, minus Tommy, walked down the streets of Osaka, searching for one of the actors from Maskman. They had managed to find that at least one of them was in the area, so with any luck by sunset they would have a new power. Crystal noticed that Sean was being silent, so she slowed down and walked next to him.
"Whats up kiddo?" she asked him, smiling as he groaned.
"You know, Kyle's jokes are annoying enough, don't tell me I have to deal with your jokes too?" He asked.
"Once in a while. So, what has you down?"
"I'm not exactly down. It's just, I'm having a hard time adjusting to not having my powers anymore." He explained.
"Really? You looked like you were doing pretty well before." Crystal asked.
"Some moments are better than others. More often than not, it feels like my ligaments are...just heavy. Like right now." he lifts up his arm. "It feels like I have weights attached to my arm. I'm wondering if it'll start to affect my fighting."
Crystal nodded and scratched her chin, thinking.
"Ok, mind if I give you some advice?" Sean blinked and looked at her curious. She smacked him in the back of the head, pretty hard.
"OW!" he cried, grabbing his head. "What was that for?"
Kyle and Deion glanced back at them, obviously curious about what is happening behind them, but stayed silent. Daisy communicated with a Japanese lady trying to find a specific street location.
"My advice is to focus on anything you can, other than the problem with your lead bone issue. I don't know exactly what you're talking about, but I'm thinking that if you keep thinking the way you are, then your mind will start to make things worse." Sean stared at her in disbelief. "It's the same sort of principle that happens when people are so worried about being sick, their minds make them sick. Just try it."
Sean thought and nodded, grabbing his iPod from his jacket and put in his headphones, listening to some music. Daisy walked over to the group.
"Ok, we're looking for Fujiyama. Problem is, there are two streets with that name, so we're going to have to split up."
"That's annoying." Kyle said as he took a piece of paper from her. "Me and Sean will check out this one, while you guys and girls check the other."
"Sounds good. Let's get going." Deion said as he, Daisy and Crystal began to walk towards one of the streets.
Daisy grinned as she stepped close to the yellow ranger.
"So, when did you end up being the team mother?"
XpagebreakX
Alpha walked onto the bridge of the Gingant Horse, followed by Gotengo.
"Lord Gil, the pirates are in the land of Japan. With your blessing, I shall launch an attack against them."
The blue-blooded son of Ackdos Gil sat down and leaned forward.
"Aha! Yes, launch an attack immediately!"
Bowing, the quickest of the Vron's and the rebuilt cyborg walked out of the room to make their way to earth.
XpagebreakX
Tommy walked down the street, hoping to find the location of Suzuki Katsuhiro, the former Red-Buster. He had heard that he liked to frequent a local sushi place not far from where he was. Assuming he wasn't going in the complete opposite direction.
As he walked he happened to look into the window of a local eatery, he happened to notice the next best thing: Ryoma Baba, known for his role as Blue Buster. Walking inside, Tommy walked over to the table and reached into his pocket.
"Excuse me." Tommy said as he arrived at the table, causing the actor to look up. "Do you speak any English?"
Ryoma looked at him in confusion. Tommy held up his Gokai Blue and Blue Buster ranger keys, causing the actors eyes to widen.
"Gokai Blue?" The actor asked. Tommy nodded and sat down.
"Yeah. I was wondering if you could give me any information about the Go-Buster Grand Power."
"I don't know anything about our Grand Power. It vanished a few weeks ago." Tommy blinked and looked down at the key and saw it glow. Smacking his forehead, he remembered that when the keys had been found in the Terenger Chest they already had the glow indicative of a Grand Power.
"I can't believe this. I forgot we already had it. I'm so sorry for bugging you." Tommy said, groaning as he held his face in his hands. As he began to feel sorry for himself, his moribites rang: a monster was causing problems not far.
Ryoma held up the Blue Buster Key Tommy dropped.
"You can do this. No one ever said being a super hero is easy. Believe me I know." Tommy took the key and stood up.
"Never could understand that. Ok, I'll help. Thanks." Tommy ran out the door.
XpagebreakX
Kyle and Sean ran down the road, heading towards the explosions, helping people get to safety. Sean was still worried about his abilities to perform at a good level, but he knew he had to push himself to forget about that and do all he could. But as they ran past a burning building, sounds from inside caught his attention.
"Kyle! Someone's trapped in that building!" The red pirate spun around and looked at the building Sean was pointing to.
"Are you sure?" he asked.
'Yeah, positive."
"Good enough for me!" The two broke into a run for the door.
Throwing themselves into the door, they charged in, but were forced to throw their hands up to shield themselves from the flames. Following the cries for help, they quickly come to a woman pinned under a shelf.
"Lets grab her and get going. This place looks like it may come apart on us." Sean said as they ran over and grabbed the shelf, slowly lifting it off her.
"I've got it, get her out hurry!" Kyle said as he held the shelf with all the strength he could muster. Sean immediately let go and helped the woman out from under the shelf. "Hurry, I can't hold this much longer!"
Realizing that if the shelf was dropped on her, it would severely injure her, or worse, Sean grabbed her and, after apologizing, forcefully dragged her out from under the shelf. Once he knew the woman was free, Kyle dropped the shelf, his arms aching from holding it up for so long. As Kyle carried the woman into the street to an EMT, Sean made a quick check to make sure no one else was in the building, before running out just before parts of it began to collapse.
"You ok?" Kyle asked as he received some bandage tape for his palms.
"Yeah, you?" Sean replied.
"I'll be fine. Let's go!" The two once again broke into a run, flipping open their moribites as they turned the corner.
XpagebreakX
Deion and his team arrived at the monsters location, already morphed and found a shock at the opponent.
"Didn't we trash that hunk of junk back in Detroit?" Crystal asked. The robot turned and faced the four pirates.
"I have been upgraded since our last encounter. I am now "Gotengo of the Assault". I will destroy the gokaiger." The enhanced robot said as he launched lasers and missiles at them, putting them on defense. Rolling away from the attacks, the three began to fire their guns at him as they charged, holding their swords at ready.
As Deion fought Gotengo, out of the corner of his eye he saw AlphaVron charging at him from down the street. Sliding his foot, he struggled to spin around to defend himself and his friends, he knew that he wouldn't be near in time. He didn't need to be as musket balls struck Alpha from different sides. Glancing around, he saw Sean and Kyle arriving from an alley, and Tommy arriving from a rooftop.
"Sean-"
"I know, Alpha's mine.
Gokai Change: Titanium Ranger
Transforming into the first American Exclusive Ranger, Sean charged at Alpha, holding his Titanium Axe ready. Diving out of the way of an attack, he converted it into laser mode and opened fire, blasting him. Snarling, Alpha charged at him, tackling Sean and slamming him into a car, totaling it, but Sean wrapped his legs around the smaller warrior and began pummeling him with rights and lefts before smashing their helmets together, disorientating them both.
XpagebreakX
Tommy ducked under a swipe from Gotengo and kicked it in the back, sending it to Kyle and Deion, who attempted to keep up the momentum, but they were blasted by missiles. As Tommy went after its exposed back, a panel opened and he was blasted by a hidden cannon port. Daisy and Crystal were also blasted via targeted missiles.
"Same plan as before guys. Crystal, hang back. the rest of you, follow my lead."
Gokai Change: J.A.K.Q
Charging at the upgraded robot, the four circles around him and linked arms.
J.A.K.Q. Hurricane!
Spinning in a circle, the four lifted Gotengo into the air and tried to get him dizzy for Crystal, but robots don't get dizzy, and all they got was blasted by missiles for their trouble. But as they fell to the ground, Crystal saw that the weak point they used to destroy him last time was still there and slide a ranger key into her gun.
Final Waaaaave
Pulling the trigger, she sent a yellow energy bullet from her gun and directly to the back of Gotengo. However, to her shock, the bullet was absorbed and fired back at her, blasting her away.
"Did you really think that Mistress DeltaVron would have left such a glaring weakness in my design?" The machine mocked and blasted them again.
Roaring in anger and frustration. Deion charged at Gotengo, followed by Kyle and Daisy, but no matter what they did, they kept getting blasted by missiles. Tommy ran over and used his swords to deflect some missiles, but was blasted by eye lasers, sending him back.
As he struggled to get back up, he watched Crystal and Deion get blasted through a wall by lasers.
Anything we go to him gets us blasted with lasers. And missiles.
After a moment he realized that Gotengo had stopped using missiles and had switched to lasers. And as the battle dragged on, he noticed that Gotengo had stopped using missiles and instead was using its physical weapons. He stared carefully and realized what was happening, running over to the group as they reassembled.
"We need a plan." Crystal said.
"I've got an idea." Tommy said, pressing the buckle and holding up a ranger key. "About damn time we busted this group out"
The others grabbed the keys and stood up, flipping the keys closed and holding them out.
Gokai Change: Gooooo-Busters
As they transformed into the 36th sentai, they twisted their moribites so the key was facing towards the key.
Lets Morphin'
The ranger key itself flew out of the gun, and transformed into the visor and flew into the helmet, finishing the change.
"Don't worry about beating him, just fight him." Tommy said.
"Buster- Ready-" the group kneels, their muscles tensing. "GO!"
Grabbing their weapons, the team charged at him,
XpagebreakX
Sean grunted as he was sent flying through the air into a wall, letting go of his weapons as he changed back into Gokai Black. He had done a good job holding his own for a while, but Alpha's speed was something he was having trouble getting around. Soon, the tables had turned and he found himself on the defensive, suffering alot of damage in the process.
Groaning, he slowly stood up and saw Alpha charging at him, but was unable to do anything about it. Just before the attack landing, something was thrown into the smaller alien's path, tripping him and sending him flying, Sean avoiding the alien.
Turning, he inspected the weapon. It was a large, gold and silver trident, with a keyhole in the handle. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a figure leaping off a building and landing next to him, taking the spear out of the ground. The figure was about his height, in a Gokaiger uniform, but Silver.
"Hope you don't mind, but you looked like you could use help." GokaiSilver said. Sean nodded and grabbed his weapons.
"Thanks, lets finish this midget off."
Charging, the two attacked, landing several attacks. It was when they slide their ranger keys into their weapons did AlphaVron decide it would be best to retreat, and vanished in blue teleportation light.
"Damnit, he got away." Sean said, before an explosion interrupted him. "oops. We better go help. Come on!"
Raising their weapons, they charged towards the battle.
XpagebreakX
Deion, as Beet Buster, and Daisy, as Stag Buster scored with kicks to Gotengo's chest, sending it back, and avoiding laser blasts. Tommy and Kyle ran at him, using their swords to engage him with small success, however, a small error by Kyle lead to him and Tommy getting blasted, with Tommy being sent into Crystal.
Daisy ran over to try and help her boyfriend, but a swift punch to her stomach left her staggering. Gotengo raised his arms to finish her off, but Kyle ran over, wrapping his arms around the machines massive frame and lifting with all of the strength he could muster, taking Gotengo off its feet and managing to send it back slightly. Kyle tried to get up but pain in his back stopped him.
"You ok?" Deion asked as they ran over.
"I think I pulled something." Was the reply.
"You just gave that thing a German suplex. Not surprised." Sean said as he ran over. "don't worry, I found us someone to fill your spot while you rest." He said, jerking his thumb to the new Gokaiger. Daisy and Crystal looked at each other, wondering how long it would take the others to notice.
"The hell I'm going to be laying down now, not when we have a seven member roll call to do." Kyle said as he got up, holding his back.
"This guy really has his priorities in order." GokaiSilver said, causing Daisy and Crystal to look at each other. How could the others not have noticed.
The leader of the pirate Sentai stood forward, holding his hand in front of his face and clicking his fingers
"Gokai Red!"
Tommy stepped up next, placing his hand on the top of his helmet, as though adjusting his hat.
"Gokai Blue!"
Crystal joined them, waving her hand briefly in a dismissive motion.
"Gokai yellow!"
Deion smacked his hands together, brushing off his shoulder and flexing his muscles.
"Gokai Green!"
Daisy followed up the roll call, holding her hand in front of her and kneeling briefly.
"Gokai Pink!"
Sean finished by striking a pose with his left arm over his chest and his right arm stretched out with only his thumb, index, and middle fingers pointing out.
"Gokai Black"
The newest member of the team raised her hand up, slowly lowering it before spinning around and spreading her arms in challenge.
"GooooooKaiSilver!"
Straightening at the same time, they tighten the glove on their rights hands, stepping forward and tugging at their collars, showing off the logo of their team before assuming their final pose.
"Kaizoku Sentai: GOKAIGER!"
As Gotengo got back to its feet Tommy noticed a slight dimmering in its eyes and grinned under its helmet.
"It's running on empty. It used up all its missiles, and using laser attacks and sending our attacks back at us are hammering its power source. One well aimed blast should finish him off."
The group pulled out ranger keys, sliding them into their weapons to start the final wave. The original 5 pointed their guns at Gotengo while their swords were held at ready.
Sean spun his sword around in his hand, before the blade split and formed a double bladed cutlass. He stood apart from the group, needing extra space for his finisher.
GokaiSilver ran about 20 feet behind them before spinning around, twirling the GokaiTrident waiting for the go sign.
Final WAAAAAAVE!
Pulling the trigger, the five sent energy shots flying from there, gun, before pulling down with their swords, the curve the blades took being launched after the shot, combining and flying at their target.
Gokai Blast and Slash
Sean pulled the trigger, then swung both sides of his sword, sending purple/black waves of energy in the form of the signature pirate motif at Gotengo.
Gokai Skull and Crossbones
The newest member ran forward and leapt into the air, hurling the trident at Gotengo.
Gokai ShooootingStarrrr
The 7 attacks converged on their target, which raised its reflective barrier to deflect the attacks as it did before. However, with its power reserves lowered and the attacks having more power then calculated, the shield wasn't enough and it shattered easily, the Final Waves having more than enough left over power to destroy Gotengo.
XpagebreakX
"I knew that wouldn't go well. Just because you made something out of recycled material doesn't mean it's going to work. It's still junk after all." Walz Gil said as he sat back in his chair, arms crossed. Isnarn nodded as she crossed the room, activating the giant laser and firing.
XpagebreakX
The gokaiger turned to learn about their newest comrade, when Kyle asked a question that he had for quite some time.
"Are you a girl?" The silver clad pirate stumbled and spun.
"You just now noticed!?" She screeched. Indeed, GokaiSilver had a skirt.
"I didn't notice." Said Tommy.
"Me Either." Deion replied.
"You're all idiots." Crystal said amused.
Then an annoying pair of purple beams blasted the wreckage of Gotengo and caused it to grow.
"Wait, they can enlarge robots?" Deion asked.
"Apparently so, come on, let's go." Kyle said as he opened his moribites, but he was interrupted by a squad of gormin firing rockets at them.
"Damnit. Sean, can you handle that guy while we clean up here?" Tommy asked. Sean nodded, grabbing his own moribites.
"It'd be my pleasure."
"I can help, I just need DragonRanger, TimeFire, and AbareKiller keys." GokaiSilver said.
"You have ZyuRanger's power?" Daisy asked.
"Yeah, I'll tell the tale later."
"We've seen the episode." Kyle said, tossing the three keys to the new woman of the team. Putting TimeFires ranger key in her Gokai Cellular, she tapped the TimeFire key three times, then pushed GoseiKnights button.
"Crossing over time: GoZyuDrill!'
Sean dialed his four digits, 5-4-8-2, then pressed call.
"Crossing from the Void: GokaiTank!"
As the two Gokai Machines appeared, their pilots leapt into them and went after Gotengo, while the five gokaiger turned to face the gormin.
"Lets mop these guys up before the others get in trouble.' Said Kyle, cracking his neck.
"Didn't you pull something a minute ago?" Asked an incredulous Crystal.
"Your backs going to feel like hell when you demorph." Said Deion.
"Another reason to finish quick, let's go." Said Daisy, smacking her buckle and grabbing a ranger key.
"Gokai Change: Shinkenger!"
Drawing their swords, the five charged at the approaching foot soldiers.
XpageBreakX
Sean spun his wheel quickly, avoiding being stomped on by gotengo, and blasted him with a tank shell point blank. Grunting as he was blasted by a laser, he was saved from continuing fire by the GoZyuDrill, attacking Gotengo's back with its drill.
"Let's show this hunk of scrap what for?" GokaiSilver's voice came over the intercom.
"Your on." Sean folded up his GokaiBlack key and slid it into the keyhole, turning it and starting the transformation.
The Treads changed and became feet as the Tank propelled itself into a standing position and the torso turned around. The arms folded down from the back and the top unfolds, allowing the head to pop out from the inside. The folded down section also formed chest armor with a gold Gokai logo. The head is a silver robotic face with blue eyes and a gold pirate beard. The change finished when the barrel shifted position on its back, becoming a harpoon gun.
"GokaiRobo, ready!"
Joined by GoZyuRex, Sean charged after Gotengo, testing out the handling of his new mode as he fought. The controls were quite well balanced and he had an easy time holding his own. GokaiSilver wasn't doing to bad either, using the drill on its tail and Godzilla like laser breath to attack, going after the previous damages they inflicted.
"Ok Silver, let's put this buy down for good!"
"Right behind you."
Sean turned his Ranger Key to set up the finishing attack as GoZyuRex became GoZyuJin.
"Gokai Harpoon torpedo!"
GoZyu- Triple Drill Dream!"
Pointing the Harpoon Gun at gotengo and firing, a rocket attached harpoon flew out of the weapon and blasted the robot, at the same time as the trifecta of drill attacks made their mark, destroying Gotengo once and for all.
"You're times up. " GokaiSilver said over the intercom.
XpageBreakX
"So, what do you think?" Tommy asked Kyle as they watched the fight.
"Not bad. Let's keep them. Which reminds me, feeling better about yourself?" He asked his friend.
"Yeah, a whole lot better." Tommy said. Kyle smiled and summoned the galleon.
XpageBreakX
"So, what did you say your name was?" Deion asked their newest member as they ate dinner aboard the Galleon.
"Rachel Saitou." She replied. She was an American Japanese woman of 21 years, her mother having met and married her father when stationed in Japan for Military service. A longtime fan of Super Sentai and kamen Rider, she came across her powers after Thuy Trang, the actress who played Trini Kwan from the original MMPR movie, who tragically died in 2001, and Baku Hatakeyama, the actor who played the original KiRanger from Gorenger. As they predicted, the ZyuRanger ultimate power was given to her, but it was made clear that the Gorenger power had been given out "a long time ago, the very beginning in fact" was the words given to her.
"Trading one mystery for another. Figures. Anyway, welcome to the team." Kyle said as he held out his hand to her, which she accepted. The others all placed their hands on top of hers and smiled…..until the alarms went off.
"I don't want to hear it." Deion said, looking at his meal with longing.
"I don't want to say it. We've got gormin, let's go. You stay here and rest." Daisy said, directing her last comment to her boyfriend as the team got up and ran out.
XpagebreakX
Crystal ducked under a swing of the gormin club and slashed it in the back, then slashed at a few more. The fight was a typical gokaiger/gormin fight, and the team had gotten this to a science.
Except for their newest member, who was having a few issues as she tried to fight off the multitude of grey foot soldiers.
Tommy and Sean leapt over and swung their swords at the exposed backs, fighting them off and giving her time to breath. Pretty soon they were all gone, and the six went back to the Galleon. As they walked in, it appeared that Kyle had gone to bed already. Rachel sat down noticeably depressed.
"What kind of Gokaiger am I if I had trouble with gormin?" She asked. Crystal sat down next to her and gave her a hug.
"listen sweetie, I've never been in so much as a shoving match before a pair of blockheads walked up and asked me to put on yellow tights and be a superhero. So trust me when I say this: The first thousand gormin are easily the toughest, but by day two its a lot easier."
The others chuckled at her wording and cleaned up the table before winding down to enjoy the evening.

Kyle leaned back on his bed, exhausted after everything that had happened. He was in the middle of nodding off when his cell phone began to ring. Growling, he groped for the phone on his nightstand before finding it, flipping it open and holding it to his face.
"Hello?" He said, sleepily.
"Why do you sound so tired? It's only about six' o'clock over there isn't it?" came the voice of Jason David Frank.
"Yeah, but you try adding monster battle of the week on top of jet lag." He said, sitting up and rubbing his eyes. "So, have you been able to find anything out?"
He had contacted David Frank before they left America and asked him to do some digging into Sam's disappearance.
"Not very much, and what I have found isn't good." Jason replied.
"What is it?" Kyle asked.
"Do you remember a man named Ronald Grint? Lived in the apartment across the street from Sam?" Jason asked him. It took Kyle a few moments for him to recall who he was talking about.
"Oh yeah, I know him. Never much liked him, always seemed the slimy sort. What does he have to do with it?"
"Turns out he was a peeping tom, and he would spy on Sam, along with other women in the building. And he happened to be looking into Sam's apartment on the day she vanished." Jason told him. Kyle could vaguely hear the rustling of papers on the other line.
"Son of a mother…" Kyle took a deep breath and calmed down. "What did he see?"
"He claims to have seen a tall man in a black outfit, a jumpsuit with a helmet of some sort. He said the figure just appeared in the apartment, and then it vanished. But before it left, the man in black looked at him."
"And then what?" Kyle asked, groaning. He was thankful for the help Jason had given him in dealing with the Power Rangers and Super Sentai, not to mention looking into Sam's disappearance. But he was exhausted and the torn back muscle was aching and all he wanted to do was sleep.
"I don't know: that was the point where he became so agitated the orderlies had to sedate him." It took several seconds for the words to sink in.
"Wait, orderlies, sedate? Is he in a hospital?" Kyle asked.
"Not exactly. Whatever Mr. Grint saw when the man looked back at him shocked and horrified him beyond belief. It's driven him completely insane. He's in a mental institution." Jason explained.
Kyle had no idea what to say about that, and simply closed his phone, his mind trying to wrap around the idea. His back protesting, the red pirate stood up and walked to the window, looking outside before glancing at the wall, where the picture of him, Tommy and Sam hung.
"I don't know what's going on Sam, but somehow I'll figure it out. I just hope I won't be to late when I do."
And here is the latest chapter: I hope you all enjoyed it.
The next episode will be very different from other chapters, as Sean and Rachel investigate something that doesn't exist, but find themselves running for their lives from the latest Zangyack Plot, as the others reach out to a Sentai Legend.
