First of all, as always I would like to thank everyone who read and reviewed my previous chapter. I hope this one will please people as well. Enjoy the 12th chapter, Psycho Island.
Sean walked around a whiteness that went on forever: the dreamscape. He had been there previously, where he found himself face to face with himself, the original Sean and the Phantom Ranger. Obviously they had both been shocked, but the Phantom Ranger put their fears at ease and explained, or in Sean's case confirmed, what Tommy had previously told himself…them.
Boy using personal pronouns like this was tricky.
"Sean, I am glad to see you." The Phantom Ranger said, appearing.
"Hey,umm, where is myself?" He asked.
"He is still awake, he just got back from dealing with a Zangyack attack, but do not worry we don't need him at the moment. It appears that there is a place where several Ranger Keys on your end have all been gathered in one place, a place that didn't and won't exist."
"the hell does that mean? Do you honestly have to be so cryptic?" Sean asked annoyed.
"I do not intend to be. However what I have told you is quite literally all I know. Where ever the keys are currently, there in a place that week ago didn't exist, and soon will not again."
Sean was about to question him further when the dreamscape began fading, and a loud noise began to make itself known.
"that's my alarm clock. Looks like times up." Sean said.
"Indeed. Be careful, I don't believe the coming events will be easy." Phantom Ranger warned.
"News under the file marked "Duh!". Nothing those guys have a part in is easy." Sean deadpanned as he awoke.

After showering and changing, Sean made his way to the main deck, where the group was gathered around the table and having breakfast.
And try as he might, he couldn't tune out the argument between Rachel and Kyle.
"Strange things happen all the time, and obviously this is one of those things." Rachel said, obviously trying to end the conversation. But the multiverse traveler had known Kyle long enough to know three things about him:
1: he would never turn away from a fight no matter the odds, in fact the worse the odds the better he liked it.
2. he had no issues singing as loud as he could, particularly ones that he probably shouldn't sing.
And finally 3. When he was in disagreement about something, he kept going until not only did you want to stop, but until you would be willing to kill to never hear the subject of the conversation again.
"How do you miss that, it doesn't make any lick of sense at all! It is the very definition of impossible." Kyle said.
"I'm going to regret this, but what is so impossible." Sean said, pouring maple syrup over his pancakes.
"An Island has been discovered two days ago off the coast of Japan, 9.3 miles off the coast to be precise."
Sean ate some pancakes and bacon, thinking for a few minutes he looked up in confusion.
"Run this by me one more time, I wasn't caring before." Sean said.
"Ok here's the deal," Deion said, cutting the two off, "A few days ago, a fishing boat reported an Island about 9 miles off the coast of Kamogawa in the Chiba Prefecture. What these two are going on so long about is that fact that, and I do have to agree that it is strange, that the island, which according the reports is pretty big, hasn't been sighted before. "
"I know what happened." Crystal said with a grin. "Obviously the Animarium from Wild Force ran out of gas and made a landing."
The group looked at her before breaking out in laughter.
"Ok, that was funny, but we're all in agreement that it's pretty weird?" Tommy asked.
'Yes. Now, let's finish breakfast and get moving. If we don't have one new Greater Power by sunset someone's getting shot." Kyle said as he brought his plate to the kitchen.
As the team got ready to head to their rooms to wash up and prepare for the day, Daisy picked up the newspaper and glanced at it.
"Huh, apparently the island has been declared off limits, due to the fact that 3 teams sent to investigate all went missing. I guess the Wild Zords are in a bad mood." She said, setting the paper back on the table and heading to her room. Soon the team was making its way down to the ground, but Sean was still thinking about what they had said, about the island that had just seemed to appear out of nowhere.
This warranted investigation.

Sean walked down the streets, staring at the ocean, roughly in the direction this mysterious island was located. The Phantom ranger had told him his remaining ranger keys would be located somewhere that didn't exist. What better place to start then a large island that showed up out of nowhere. After a bit of walking he saw what he was looking for, a rent a boat location. As he walked over to the location he paused in his tracks.
"Son of a.." he started.
"Don't curse in front of a lady." A voice cut in. Turning, Sean noticed and amused Rachel standing behind him.
"how long have you been following me?" He asked.
"Pretty much the entire time you've been walking here. You've been pretty out of it. So, what's going on?" She replied. Sean thought about it for a few moments before deciding that not telling her served no purpose, seeing as they were on the same team. He explained the visitation by the Phantom Ranger and how he suspected the missing Sentai Ranger keys were located on the island.
"So that's the deal, only as I approach I realized I have a problem."
"You don't speak the language, and the Japanese government put a notice prohibiting travel to the island?" She asked. Sean paused scratches his neck.
"Ok, I have three problems. I forgot my wallet, and even if I didn't forget I don't have any Japanese currency."
"that's four problems." Rachel said.
"Three and a half at best, so we have an issue with how we get there."
"Why is there an issue at all? We live on a giant flying ship." Rachel asked.
"Yeah, but Kyle's the only one who can operate the thing, and if I ask him to help me I'll have to listen to him crack jokes about my age all week. In addition to the ones he's already been giving me." Sean told her. Rachel takes his arm and leads him down to the rent a boat location.
"Then we'll have to do this the low key way." Rachel speaks in Japanese to the woman behind the counter, pays her and goes to get a boat.
"What was that?" Sean asked.
"that was my renting a boat, and paying with Japanese yen." Rachel replied grinning as she dragged him to their small motorboat.
"I thought that we couldn't get to the island because of the government?"
"Well I didn't tell her we were going to do that. I told her we wanted to have some fun on the water. Come on; let's get going before the gang bothers us."
"where do they think we are anyway?" Sean asked.
"Oh I told them I was finishing some loose ends and was brining you with me in case of any trouble. Now come on."

At present the five were standing, well the men were standing, while the women were sitting on a bench overlooking a movie theater across the street.
"So what's so special at this theater?" Deion asked as he leaned on the bench and glanced at their captain.
"That is the favorite theater of Mitchi Love, better known The Heart Queen from J.A.K.Q. Dengekitai. We'll meet her and get a Greater Power, and in the meantime we can catch a movie. Come on, I think the new Kyrouyger movie is playing." Kyle said, walking to the street.
All five began crossing the street once the path was clear, but before they stepped off the street and onto the sidewalk the theater exploded, sending the five flying back, and landing on the street in pain.
"what was that?" Daisy asked as she got up.
"Don't know. Come on, let's get in there, maybe some people are still alive." Deion said, but as they got to their feet they all froze. Walking menacingly out of the remains of the movie theater were the dreaded Psycho Rangers, never once looking away from the team, as though the death and destruction they had just caused was beneath them.
"So, you're the Pirate Sentai." Said Psycho Red.
"Not much to look at." Followed Psycho Blue.
"Still, we love to pummel heroes." Said Psycho Yellow.
"And that's something we do very good." Psycho Green mocked as he cracked his knuckles.
"So let's not waste time, we don't have all day." Said Psycho Pink.
Without responding, the five gokaiger charged at the evil team of Sentai, all thoughts consumed with anger and a fierce desire to seek revenge on behalf of the innocent people harmed by the Psychos. But they neglected a vital fact:
They hadn't transformed.
The five fought bravely, but even with their heart and abilities, the augmented power of the evil rangers was just too much for them to handle.
Daisy attempted to back flip onto a table to get some distance between her and Psycho Pink when the table was kicked out from under her, causing her rotation to be off and land hard on her back. Before Daisy could try to get up, Psycho Pink was on top of her, the cold metal in its glove grabbing onto her forehead.
Deion managed to slip behind Psycho green and jumped onto his back, wrapping his arms and legs around him to try and choke him out, but the move was completely ineffective, as Psycho Green calmly reached back, grabbed Deion and tossed him through the air and into a wall. Deion struggled to get to his feet as his opponent approached, arm outstretched to grab him.
Crystal jumped back to avoid a grab and leapt forward with a kick right to the rights, a kick that was caught, allowing her to be easily tossed back into and through the windshield of a car.
Kyle had a bit more luck, in that it he scored at least a punch across the face mask of Psycho Red before he was in trouble. However, after overextending a punch, he was kneed in the gut, and Psycho Reds hand went straight for his throat, squeezing tight as he was lifted in the air. Kyle had often wondered why people in movies didn't pretend to be choked out to make it stop, but now that he was in the position, having his lungs on fire screaming for air, he knew full well why they didn't.
It was only when a musket ball fired from Tommy's gun stuck Psycho red's arm did he let go, but that left Tommy wide open to be easily defeated by Psycho Blue.
The Gokaiger couldn't do anything as their thoughts were copied by the Psycho Rangers, who let them go and regrouped once they were through.
"We have what we came for. Let's get back, and maybe we'll be able to finish them later." Psycho Green said.
"Yeah, maybe next time they'll give us an actual challenge." Agreed Psycho Yellow as they turned and vanished, leaving the five gokaiger unconscious in the street as emergency crews started to arrive.

"Look at them, their helpless." Said a strange onlooker, viewing the action from a nearby rooftop.
"Yeah, let's get down there and finish them." said a second man.
"Not a chance." Said the third man, folding up a map and looking at them, not amused.
"Why not? You wouldn't need to get involved. Carlos and I are more than enough. We'd be rid of them in no time at all." The first man asked.
"Because Willy boy, attacking now would reveal our presence and serve us nothing. It's better to let the gokaiger keep ramming their heads into a wall fighting Delta's troop, and wait for the perfect opportunity."
Standing, the apparent leader marched to them, glaring at them.
"I've been waiting for the right moment for quite some time now, and I will not have you two blundering it up, savvy?" he growled at them. The two looked at each other before reluctantly nodding in agreement. Their leader gave them a beaming smile and turned away, crossing his arms as he walked away from the scene. "Come now, we still have work to do."
Carlos looked down to see the gokaiger being helped to their feet by some civilians while emergency personal checked the injured and put out the fire in the theater.

Pulling their small dinghy onto shore, Sean and Rachel looked around.
"So this is the place. Pretty unimpressive." Said Rachel, taking her coat off and tossing it on the boat.
"Yeah I know what you mean. It looks deserted, but I can't help getting a bad feeling." Sean said, starting to walk inland.
"No don't say that. If it's just me I can ignore it, but if you say that it means It's not just heartburn." Rachel said dejected.
"Sorry. I'll stop talk- what the hell?" Sean asked as they got a better look at the island. In the middle of the island was several buildings, many high tech and obviously working, judging by the sounds and lights coming from them. Glancing at each other, they both slowly began to make their way down the cliff and peered into a window. Inside was a conveyer belt, which appeared to be manufacturing robots at a steady pace.
"Those things look a lot like the robot we fought last week. Only not as stacked and a lot more of him." Said Sean as they looked into the building, watching the robot making process.
"I think your right. And look over there, isn't that the little guy we fought that same day?" Rachel said, pointing across the room. Sure enough, AlphaVron was pacing around, talking to a large screen.
"Listen don't worry. The process is on schedule and by the end of the week we'll have more gotengo's then we do Sugomin's. As it is we have nearly 100 ready to be activated. I can handle this, you don't need to pester me every hour." Alphavron was telling whoever was on the screen with him. The two new Gokaiger glanced at each other. 100 gotengo robots was plenty tough, and if more were on the way, then they needed to get the others to the island ASAP.
As Rachel reached into her pocket to get her Gokai Cellular, Sean saw something out of the corner of his eyes and pulled her away as a Gormin rocket exploded next to where they were. Spinning to face the direction the rocket came from, they saw squads of Gormin and a dozen Sugomin heading towards them. Rachel opened up her cellular to morph, but Sean stopped her.
"We're sitting ducks here, we gotta move and get help." He told her. She let out a groan of frustration but agreed the two climbing up the slopes of the cliff as the Zangyack forces followed them in hot pursuit. Thankfully the two were able to lose the alien forces by hiding under an uprooted tree, waiting until they were sure the Zangyack had left before crawling out. Once they were both out, Sean flipped open his Moribites and called Kyle, but got nothing.
"I've got static, try Tommy or Daisy." Sean told Rachel, who took out her cellular.
"Nothing. What's going on?" Sean thought, they pointed back the way they came.
"We need a better look of that facility. Come on." He told her as they carefully made their way back.
XpagebreakX
"Does anyone know where the fuck Sean and Rachel are?" Kyle demanded as he angrily paced around the room. Tommy and Deion were both on the couch, bandaging the cuts Crystal got from the windshield as Daisy sat at table, her moribites to her ear.
"I'm not getting through to them. It doesn't make sense. The signal should be able to reach them around most of the planet. There's no reason we can't make contact." Daisy said.
"Could it be their just ignoring us?" Tommy asked glancing over at her.
"No, we'd at least get a signal. We're not getting through at all. The only thing I can think is somehow the signal is being blocked." Daisy told them as Deion and Tommy got off the couch to let Crystal lay down.
"We can't worry about them right now. If the Psycho Rangers are taking the stage we've got to be ready. I screwed up and didn't call the morph last time. Next encounter we don't hold back. I suggest we all get some rest." Kyle said as he walked to his room.
Deion and Tommy glanced at each other and then headed to their own rooms, while Daisy stayed with Crystal to make sure she was ok.

"No wonder we couldn't get through, if that's what I think it is." Sean said as they looked at a large tower in the middle of the complex.
"If you think that's a signal jamming tower, you're right. And those look like Anti-aircraft weaponry." Rachel said. They had gotten to a new vantage point and had crawled to the point, managing to evade detection from Zangyack search parties.
"How do you know so much about this?" Sean asked her.
"My parents were both in the military. I spent most of my life in bases all around the world." She reminded him.
"Do you think you can disable the jammer?" he asked.
"I doubt it. I may be able to tell what it is, but I doubt I can hack into their systems and turn them off without having the entire island coming down on us."
"I don't like this. We're gokaiger. We shouldn't be on the defensive when It comes to Zangyack. It goes against my grain." He confessed to her.
"I know what you mean black coat." She agreed with him. "But we need to be careful about how we go about this. If we take out all the gormin they may switch on the Gotengo's they've already finished, and we'd be screwed."
"Good point, I almost forgot about them. Ok, we should go back to the boat and back to the mainland. That way we can get the others and put together a real plan." He told her.
"Not bad. Ok then, we'll call that plan B: 'Off the island." She said as they managed to crawl away before heading to the shore. On the way they encountered a small group of gormin which they easily bested before arriving at shore. As Sean bent over to push the boat into the water he paused and stared at the motor.
"What's wrong?" Rachel asked, knowing she won't like the answer.
"Are bombs standard Japanese boating equipment?" he tentatively asked her. Rachel slowly walked over and leaned over to look where he was. Sure enough, a Zangyack explosive device was attached to the underside of the motor.
"We'll I'm about ready to go back to plan A: 'Stay on the island and fight." She told him.
"Yeah the boating idea isn't looking to good right now." He agreed. They looked at each other and bolted away from the boat, managing to get away before it exploded, sending them face first into the sand and rocks of the beach.
"now I'm getting pissed off." Sean said as he spit sand out of his mouth. "that bomb went off went off only after we were out of range of the blast."
Rachel coughed and got to her feet, looking around.
"Which means someone is watching us. I hate being screwed with. We need a new plan. If we can get to the jamming tower, we can disable it long enough to send a signal to the others for back up."
"Good idea, but for now we need to get our game faces on." Sean told her, pointing to where a battalion of gormin were charging at them from the woods. The two jumped to their feet, ready to fight.
Gokai Change: Gokaiger

"What do you mean Gokai black and Gokai silver are on Murantious? How could you let them on the island, let alone see what our operations are?" DeltaVron hissed at her younger brother.
"I don't know how they got here but they aren't leaving. The gormin found their ship and destroyed it. Their trapped on the island and the shields and jammers are holding. They won't be able to send a signal for help and those other fools won't be able to find them. Not that they'll have time if you do your job!" AlphaVron snarled back.
"I'm sending Psycho's black and silver to the island to assist in the operation. We'll have to get their neural patterns for my master work. Unfortunately I'm "benched" as the humans call it. Gil wasn't happy that the Psycho's were recalled from the battle. I managed to convince him it was due to a glitch in the bio-nervous systems, but he's decided to send one of his action commanders to earth instead." She told him.
"What do you want me to do about the two on Murantious?" Alpha asked.
"find them, and let the Psycho's deal with them for now. At the moment Gil doesn't know about the island and I want to keep it that way. Let them worry about them. I know you little brother, and you won't do our plan any good by going out looking for payback." Delta told him before terminating communication. Turning she walked over to the alcoves where the Psycho's were downloading the information taken by the five core gokaiger.
"Vulgar and Disgust, I'm sending you two to Murantious. Your counterparts are on the island. Find them, get the required data and return. We don't have much time." She told them, using the code names of Black and Silver. The two nodded and teleported to Earth.
XpagebreakX
"Wh
at is bothering you Daramas?" insarn asked as they watched Zatsurig walk off to go to Earth after the pirates.
"It's what happened with DeltaVron's "psycho rangers". I don't buy her excuse as to why she was forced to recall them. She's planning something, and I don't know what." He told her.
"Maybe we should take our thoughts to Lord Gil?" Suggested insarn.
'No, I doubt that would do any good. He's far too willing to give her the space she needs in order to work, and accepts her thoughts much too readily. We need proof, not suspicion if we are to sway his opinion." He said.
"I can't believe that witch was able to convince Lord Gil to work camera free. That alone should at least give cause for concern." She pointed out.
"Not exactly. She's one of the top scientific minds in the entire empire. She convinced him to shut down surveillance on her to prevent anyone stealing her work." Daramas admitted.
"Of all the arrogance, like anyone would want to steal her slipshot work." Insarn said angrily.
"We'll just have to keep our eyes open and hope we find something we can use to prove our suspicious."

Opening a skylight, Sean poked his head in, looking around and seeing that no one was in the building, opened it up fully and leapt down along with Rachel.
"Ok these looks like the systems we're looking for. Keep an eye out while I examine them." Rachel said as she stepped up to a computer, typing on the alien keyboards.
"Sean crept up to the door and poked his head out, looking around before glancing back.
"Anything yet?" he asked.
"Almost. I've found a connection area we can bypass the signal jammer and call for help, and the source of power for the production facilities. We can hit there and prevent the creation of more Gotengo's." Rachel said as she took out her cellular and opened a control board, rummaging through the wires.
"Ok, let's hurry. I don't see how we can stay hidden here for very long." Sean said as he took out his gun, listening for any sounds that might indicate approach. Rachel took a connection cable and attached it to the bottom of her cellular and dialed the others.
XpagebreakX
Kyle sat in his usual chair, flipping his moribites open and flipping it closed again, and repeating the process over and over again.
"Still nothing from the others?" the voice of his girlfriend came from behind him. Glancing back he saw her walking over and smiled when she sat on his lap.
"No, I'm starting to get worried about them. They've been out of contact for several hours and I can't find their moribites on the scanner. I don't like this at all." He confessed.
"Their both capable and smart. Whatever's going on, I'm sure they'll be able to handle it." She assured him. Cuddling for a few minutes, there moment was spoiled by the ringing of Kyle's moribites. Grabbing it and flipping it open, he quickly put it to his ear.
"Where have you guys been?" he asked, knowing who it had to be.
"We're on that island that we were talking about. It's a Zangyack Stronghold and it's mass producing Gotengo robots. They blew up our boat so we're stuck here." Rachel told him.
"Hang on, we're on our way." He told her.
"No, the island is defended by Anti-Aircraft weaponry, the Galleon comes close and it gets shot down. You'll have to use a different way to get here." She warned him. He heard alarms from her end of the connection.
"Uh-oh, they detected my call. We need to bail before they swarm here. We're fine for now but there far too many here to fight head on. Don't take too long getting here." She told him, disconnecting the call. Kyle opened his mouth but Daisy was already out of his lap, heading to the console to wake the others and brief them on what was going on. However the discussions were interrupted when sensors detected a Zangyack in the city. The island would have to wait.

Sean and Rachel, as the Go-On Wings, fought their way out of the room, heading to the room that supplied the energy for the generator. After locking the door behind them, they examined the machine.
"The power source appears to be some sort of sphere. Get rid of it and we stop the plant." Rachel told him after they smashed most of the consoles.
"Then let's get rid of it." Sean said as he opened an access port and reached inside, taking out the rather large sphere. It seemed to contain something inside, but they couldn't get a clear look due to the material surrounding it.
"Lets get out of here before things get hairy." Rachel said opening the door and walking out, bumping into Psycho Silver.
"Too late for that bitch!" She growled and blasted her back, sending her into Sean. The two got up and ducked under punches from the Psycho's and rolled out of the way before tackling the two through the wall, sending them outside and rolling down the hill that was outside. Leaping to their feet, the two changed back into Gokaiger and glanced at each other before reading themselves to fight the Psychos, who charged at them.
Blocking a strike from Psycho Silver, Rachel kicked her back and swung her trident at her, striking her across the chest. However her follow up attack was blocked and she was hit with several strikes from the Psycho Silverizer, sending her back. She attempted to counter but was blocked and had Psycho Silver's hand go for her head. She managed to duck, and felt a pressure on her back as Sean rolled across her and kicked the evil Sentai away.
'I'll take her, you take mine." He said before charging at her. Spinning around. Rachel used her trident to block and attack from Psycho Blacks Psycho Rod, kicking the rod away and striking him in the knee with the bottom of her staff. The newest gokaiger fought off the mismatched Psycho's for several minutes, but in the end they were out maneuvered and their thoughts copied.
"We didn't get the corresponding thoughts." Silver told Black.
"True, but we managed to copy the thoughts anyway. We can still use them for now; we just have to download them into each other's data locker.. Let's get back to the ship." Black reminded her. The two were about to teleport away when they were once again attacked by the gokaiger. However they were sent back with a strike.
"you petulant fools." Psycho Silver said as she and her partner turned to face them, channeling energy into their hands. Rachel glanced down and saw the sphere from the generator room in the sand between them. jabbing her trident into the sand under it, she kicked it up, sending the sphere into the air and into the direct path of the dual blasts. However, it was shattered, with enough force left over to send the pair back and over a cliff.
"Do you think they were destroyed?" Silver asked.
"I doubt it. Those two are weak, but not that weak. Let's get back to the ship and give DeltaVron this data. Then we'll come back down and wipe them out." Black told her as the two turned and teleported away.
XpagebreakX
DeltaVron nodded satisfactory as Psycho Black and Psycho Silver transferred the data from the gokaiger to the systems.
"Now that the memories from the gokaiger, can we please destroy them already?" Psycho Red angrily "asked".
"No. I was monitoring the fight between the gokaiger and Zatsurig. They destroyed him and then vanished. I haven't been able to find them, and I don't like it." She told them.
"What about Black and Silver, we know where they are!" Reminded Psycho Black.
"yes, but I want you to hold back until we've determined the locations of the others. These humans are tricky creatures. They have defeated numerous creatures despite the odds." Delta reminded them. "they are not to be underestimated."
"We're superior in every way. Stronger, faster, smarter we even have access to their thoughts. There aren't any combat options we aren't prepared for." Psycho Blue boasted.
"Listen to me, every single action commander that has gone up against them as said many of those same words. I have combed through the combat data. Statistically they should have been defeated long ago. Do you know why they haven't?" She asked them. The group looked amongst themselves, then back at her.
"You seem to have all the answers. Why?" Psycho Green asked.
"I can't say. Their ability to survive despite the forces put against them is incredible. And it is not something that can be quantified or plugged into a combat simulation. They survive because they possess a bond forged in war, courage to put their life on the line for the others of their team, for their ideals, for their planet. They survive because if they do not, their home falls. They survive, not because they are seven people with a common goal, they survive because they are one cohesive entity. One being, with seven different colors in its wardrobe." DeltaVron told them. She turned away from them and went to her consoles. The Psychos went into another room to confer amongst themselves, and within minutes, Delta's console indicated that they had all left the ship.

"And just where are you going?" Carlos asked their leader.
"I've got a good idea of where the pirates have gone. I'm going to go see if I'm right. You two keep working. We need to locate owners of Grand Powers of Super Sentai. The more we find, the more difficult a job the pirates will have." He said as he stepped off the ledge of the building, falling off. Neither Carlos or William had to look to know that the body was crushed against the pavement. Just before the body hit the pavement, the spirit that had possessed it left the body and flew away.
"I swear that guy does that to creep us out." Carlos said as he and William went to the roof access door.

Sean splashed water on his face , trying to wash away the dirt from his face. After being blasted by the Psychos off the cliff, they had been sent into the woods below before finding themselves near a creek. After demorphing they had assessed their injuries and had been relieved to learn that the worst of it was cuts and bruises covered it dirt.
"I don't like this. There's so much going on that we don't know about. Why did the Psycho's leave so soon into the fight? They did that mind thing, then split." Sean asked Rachel.
"After blasting us through a wall." Rachel reminded him.
"No, they did that because we were keeping them from leaving. They wanted our minds for something, and I don't think I'll like the reason why."
"No, you won't!" Said Psycho Silver as she and the other six Psycho's appeared on the cliff face overhead. Holding their weapons ready, Rachel and Sean glanced around, trying to figure out what ways they had to defend themselves against the odds. Their thoughts were cut off when a whistling sound came from behind and the two ducked, dodging the missile that flew past and exploded against the cliff, scattering debris all over the two. Looking behind them, they could see dozens of Gotengo robots approaching.
"Fuck me!" Said Rachel as she swallowed, watching the approaching Robots. Sean desperately tried to think of a plan to keep him and Rachel alive. Then he hit on one, it was risky, but given what he remembered about the Psycho Rangers from watching Power Rangers, it might just work.
"Don't tell me that you Psycho's are so inept that you can't fight us without an army of machines to back you up!" He shouted at them. That got their attention.
"You think you can smart mouth to us!" Shouted Psycho Blue angrily.
"You pathetic pirates have a hard time taking one of those Gotengo models on." Psycho Pink pointed out.
"No way is some assembly line tin can going to take the pleasure of destroying the gokaiger from us!" Psycho Black snarled, cracking his knuckles.
"And to prove how superior we are, we'll thrash those robots." Psycho Yellow said, as she and the other Psychos readied their weapons.
"Silver, Black, you two can take on your gokaiger counterparts. No need for them to feel left out." Said Psycho Red as he and the other four Psycho's leapt off the cliff charging at the gotengo robots.
"Ok, so we've got the playing field leveled. Now what?" Rachel asked Sean who glanced back to see the Psycho's battling the Gotengo robots and destroying them one after another.
"We keep the show going." Sean said as he held up his ranger key., an action mimicked by Rachel.
Gokai Change: Gokaiger

AlphaVron grinned smugly as he watched the POV feeds from the Gotengo robots on the screen showed the Psycho Rangers making short work of the hoards of the mass produced robots. It hadn't been easy, but he had been able to power up the constructed machines and send them out to the location of the two gokaiger on the island: finding the Psycho's was a stroke of luck. Since the power source for the factory had been stolen, and most likely destroyed, it would be next to impossible to restart the work that had been done here.
He had to give credit to the vron family, setting up this island under the nose of the Zangyack and getting all this production going was pretty impressive. But he needed the Gokaiger still, so he had to intervene and help them out, much as it irritated him to do.
After disabling and destroying the communication systems AlphaVron looked around to make sure he wasn't forgetting anything, before he suddenly collapsed over the console. However, the ghostly figure exactly AlphaVron stood simply turned and walked through the wall.

Sean landed on his feet after his backflip next to Rachel, cursing as he saw that the other Psycho's had finished dealing with the Gotengo robots.
"See, we're obviously more powerful then you pirates are. Now that we're done with the warm up, time to get to the main event!" Psycho Green said as they approached the cornered pirates. Sean held up his sword, ready to fight for his life alongside Rachel as the Psycho's charged at them, only to be stopped by a hail of musket balls.
Spinning around, Rachel and Sean were heartened to see the other Gokaiger on the cliff above them.
"Main event huh? That sounds peachy to us." Tommy said as they lowered their guns and leapt to the ground next to their friends.
"Sorry it took so long to get here. Zangyack attack, and those cannons made traveling here tricky." Crystal said.
"Don't worry about it, we were just keeping our hosts entertained while we waited for you guys." Rachel said.
"DeltaVron was pretty worried about you seven. She seems to think you humans may be able to change the course of what's to come. But you all won't live long enough to do anything like that." Psycho Red boasted, holding up his sword.
"I'd ask you about that, but we all know you won't tell, so we'll just do what we do best. Make these copies walk the plank." Kyle said, flipping his ranger key closed, an action mimicked by the others.
Gokai Change: GoooKaiger
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 went next 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"
Rachel 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!"
Wanting to prove anything the Gokaiger could do, they could do better the Psychos followed up.
The Phantom-PsychoRed
The Bizarre-PsychoBlue
The Sophia-PsychoYellow
The Anger-PsychoGreen
The Jealous-PsychoPink
The Vulgar-PsychoBlack
The Disgust-PsychoSilver
Psycho Rangers, ready to destroy!
The battle went underway, much more even than the previous battles with the Gokaiger mounting more of an offense, scoring several hits as the time went on. However, the Psychos were still devastating foes and gave every single bit as good as they received.
After several minutes, the teams split up and regrouped, coming up with new plans.
"You pirates might be better than before, but still not enough to handle us. Anything you do we're prepared for!" Psycho Red snarled, angry that he and his team had been wounded in battle.
"We've thought of that, so we came up with a plan to handle you freaks." Kyle said, holding up a ranger key, in unison with the others. "It's a little plan we like to call "Seven Shades Of Red"!"
Gokai Change:
ZyuRanger
Kyle turned his ranger key and held out his moribites as he changed before striking the pose of TyrannoRanger,
Gingaman
Tommy turned his key and held out his moribites and changed, striking the pose of GingaRed
MagiRanger
Crystal turned her ranger key and held out her moribites as she changed before striking the pose of a skirted MagiRed
Goseiger
Deion turned his ranger key and held out his moribites as he changed before striking the pose of GoseiRed
MegaRanger
Daisy turned her ranger key and held out her moribites and changed, striking the pose of a skirted MegaRed
JetMan
Sean turned his ranger key and held out his moribites as he changed before striking the pose of Red Hawk
DekaRanger
Rachel turned her ranger key and held out her moribites and changed, striking the pose of a skirted DekaRed
"What is that supposed to be?" Psycho Blue asked as he got off his knees.
"just a little curveball." Tommy said, holding his sword ready. With a yell, the pirated red rangers charged at their Psycho counterparts.
Rachel blocked Psycho Silvers strike with her D-Knuckle, grabbing her wrist and pulling her close, slamming the visor of her evil counterpart into her elbow causing her to drop her weapon and send her stumbling back, enabling contact with a crescent kick once again to the face, before following up with several punches to the face, grabbing the Psycho Silveryzer and delivering a slash across the torso.
Sean caught a kick from Psycho Black and leapt into the air, kicking him in the chest and sending him stumbling back. But his evil counterpart wasn't finished, swiping at him with his Psycho Rod, putting Sean on the defense and making him back to the edge of the cliff, overlooking the ocean and jagged rocks below. Hatching a plan, Sean back flipped away from a strike, jumping over the edge and down the cliff. Psycho Black ran to the edge and looked down, only to see the current red ranger fly up and tackle him straight into the air for several feet before bringing him back to the ground, scoring several strikes with the bringer sword before spiking Psycho black right into a large boulder.
Daisy rode her Cyber Slider straight at Psycho Pink, holding her arm back to deliver a high speed strike, but her ride was blasted by several arrows from the PsychoBow, sending her crashing into the ground. Hauling herself to her feet, Daisy raised her Drill Saber to block a physical attack from the Bow and kicked Psycho Pink in the knee and stabbed her through the stomach with the Screw Drill Saber before lifting her up and heaving her away.
Deion ran at Psycho Green, ignoring the blasts being fired at him and exploding all around him from the Psycho Gauntlet. Leaping into the air he swung the Skick Sword at Psycho green, but he ducked under it and got behind him. Ducking under a kick from Psycho green he leapt back behind his opponent, grabbing the holster for the Gosei Blaster and pointing it at him firing the sidearm while it's still in the holster, blasting him and making him an easy enough target for a strike with the Sword across the chest and another to the Psycho Gauntlet, destroying it.
Crystal let out a yell as she dives out of the way to avoid being blasted by the Psycho Sling. Grabbing her Magistick, she transformed it into a crossbow and fired several bolts at her, causing her to leap backwards into the air. Seeing that she would most likely land on a thick tree branch, Crystal pointed her MagiPhone at her and dialed 92, the Majuna Giruma spell, causing her to lose her balance and slip off the branch, landing back first on a large rock. The momentum caused her to bounce off the rock and pitch forward, right into the Fire Screw Upper attack from the MagiPunch gloves, sending her into the air, crashing through the branch.
Tommy blocked a strike from the Psycho Axe, twisting his Starbeast Sword to hook it in with the Axe to keep Psycho Blue from pulling it away, and delivered several strikes of his own using the Kiba Cutter before jumping into the air and hitting a front dropkick, forcing Psycho Blue to relinquish his hold on the axe. Kicking the handle of the axe, Tommy knocked it free from the tanglement with his sword, and spin kicking it into the stream. Psycho Blue charged at him, weaponless, but Tommy blocked it and delivered a twin strikes to the torso, before charging his weapons with Earth Fire Energy and struck him with the Two Swords Flash attack.
Kyle used his Ryuugekiken to parry several attacks from Psycho Red's Psycho Sword before back flipping, pulling his knees in so they catch his opponent in the face. However he wasn't able to follow up as Psycho Red began to attack him with energy blasts, forcing the pirated TyrannoRanger to hide behind a thick tree. As the tree was blasted by the energy attacks, Kyle leapt into the air, landing on a branch and pivoting, pointing his sword at Psycho Red and firing charged energy beams from the blade catching him by surprise and damaging him. Lunging at him, Kyle tackled him and knocked him to the ground. When Psycho red got back to his feet and spun around, he found the Ranger Slinger pointed at his face and was repeatedly blasted.
As the battle went on, the Psychos suffered more and more damage until they were on the defensive, not something they were used to. The seven Red Rangers walked to them in a line, confidence radiating from them.
"It's time we end this, in a blaze of Red showy style." Kyle said, motioning for the others to make their move. His friends nodded and all leapt into the air, landing in a circle around the Psychos.
Deion opened the Tensouder and inserted a Gosei card while Crystal pointed her MagiStick forward and Tommy held out his hands.
Tensou: TwisTornado
Magi Magi Magi Magicka
Mane of Flames
The strongest fire attacks Magired and GingaRed had were amplified by GoseiRed's tornado, keeping the fire in one tight place to increase its effect, making the fire even hotter then it usually would be. As this trifecta of attacks was being preformed, Daisy pointed her Drill Sniper into the fire tornado as Sean combined the Bringer Sword with the Bird Blaster to form the Jet Hand Cannon and Rachel formed the Hybrid Magnum. The three pulled the triggers of their weapons at the same time, pouring energy bolts and bullets into the inferno laced twister.
In a flash of red light, Kyle transformed into Armored-TyrannoRanger, holding both Zyusouken and Ryuugekiken back before leaping into the fire. Spinning and twisting as he used the two swords to strike at the Psycho's. One by one he struck them all with the weapons before the fire tornado vanished and all the Psychos fell to the ground around him and exploded.
As the fire from the tornado and the explosions subsided, Kyle walked to the others and changed back into GokaiRed before shaking his head briefly.
"I can't hear anything. Those explosions made me deaf." Kyle looked at his team before tilting his head. "Nope, still nothing. Hey what is that?"
The group turned to where he was pointing, and several meters away several large clear objects.
"Oh, that's the energy sphere that the Vron's were using to power their generators. It got wrecked a while ago." Sean said walking over to the remains of the sphere with Deion, Rachel, Tommy and Crystal, while Kyle and Daisy examined the remains of the Psychos. As they approached, Tommy noticed something.
"What's that?" he asked, using the barrel of his gun to poke at it. It was a wooden chest with the Gokaiger logo. After picking something up off the ground and putting it in the plot convenient pocket that Sentai weapons are often stored in, Kyle and Daisy went to join them.
"Can that be?" Rachel asked as Sean grabbed the chest and opened it up. 10 ranger keys were inside, four green rangers, a gold ranger, a silver ranger, and black ranger, while the other three appeared to be extra hero's rather than rangers.
"I recognize this one, it's Gosei Green." Said Tommy, picking the key up out of the box.
"That one is DekaBright, oh and that's DekaGold." Said Daisy picking two more up.
"What are the others?" Crystal asked.
"I don't recognize most of them." Said Deion. Their conversations were interrupted by the seven Psycho Rangers once again appearing, this time in their monster forms and growing giant sized. As the team prepared to summon their mecha's Rachel pointed out that AlphaVron was rapidly approaching.
"We'll hold the Psychos at bay. You two deal with Alpha and back us up. But don't take too long." Tommy said as Kyle flipped open his moribites.
"We'll be done in no time. Wait, where's the galleon, what about the AA cannons?" Sean asked quickly.
"Don't worry, we took care of all that." Crystal said as the five turned and dove off the cliff and onto the Gokai galleon, where it rose from its hiding place in the ocean. The Galleon briefly fired it's cannons at the Psycho Monsters before transforming and combining with Fūraimaru to form hurricane-GokaiOh and starting the battle.
XpagebreakX
"Ready to finish him once and for all?" Rachel asked Sean as she spun her Gokai Trident in her hand.
"Yeah, three strikes and he's out. But I'm curious, what did they mean by they took care of the cannons? " Sean wondered.
"Those fools, they are targets for my cannons!" AlphaVron laughed. Indeed the two large Anti-Aircraft cannons shifted to point at the GokaiOh, but as the energy built up inside them to fire, giant explosions erupted from their bases, destroying them.
"What! Impossible!" He screamed, totally focused on what had just happened and leaving him vulnerable to a double strike from the two.
AlphaVron snarled and charged at them. While he had much superior speed, the two gokaiger had the numbers advantage and teamwork. The two fought him off for a time before Sean lost his weapons and Rachel was struck back by an energy blast. Sean slide in front of her to defend her as Alpha grabbed Sean's sword charged at them for one last attack. Sean held out his arms, intending to use himself as a shield to protect her, but just before his own sword touched him, Rachel thrust the trident past him, causing Alpha to impale himself on it. With purple blood dripping from his mouth, the fastest Vron dropped the sword and looked down in pure shock, the kind you can only get when you know you're dying and can't do anything about it.
But he had caused to much destruction for either to be truly sympathetic as Sean and Rachel grabbed the Trident and used it to toss Alpha way. Rachel converted her Trident into Gun Mode while Sean grabbed his sword and changed it into its double bladed mode.
"Let's put him out of our misery." Sean said as he inserted his ranger key.
"And his own." Rachel agreed as she did the same.
Final WAAAAAAAVE!
SuperNova and Crossbones
The blast from the Gokai Spear-Gun was joined by the X slash of Sean's Gokai Saber, forming a tag team version of his signature attack. The attack hit straight on and destroyed AlphaVron once and for all. But the two didn't have time to celebrate, their friends were badly outnumbered and needed help. They had destroyed Psycho Monster's Blue and Yellow, but that still left five.
Crossing over time: GoZyuDrill!
Crossing from the Void: Gokai Tank
XpagebreakX
The five gokaiger grunted as they were struck by Psycho-Monster Red, sending them into attacks by Psycho-Monsters Black and Green. They had lost Fūraimaruu when they attempted to use the turbulence cherry blossom attack and it failed, and they hadn't been able to buy the time to use another ranger key, to worried about staying alive.
When P-M Silver and Pink went for their turn, they were blasted by missiles and lasers as Gokai Tank and GoZyuDrill arrived, transforming into their fighting modes.
"Sorry to keep you waiting." Rachel said over the intercom.
"Better late than never I guess." Deion replied as the three mecha's stood together against the five Psycho-Monsters. They all stood still for a moment, but then the fight was on, as GokaiOh fought against the Phantom, GoZyuJin fought The Disgust and The Jealous, and GokaiRobo fought the Vulgar and The Anger, Rachel and Sean both deciding to battle two monsters at once to give GokaiOh a rest, since it had been battling against the worse odds previously.
After ten minutes into the fight, the numbers were finally even, as The Jealous was destroyed by the Gokai Triple Drill Dream, and The Anger was destroyed with the Gokai Harpoon Torpedo. However, the fight would still have a disadvantage for the Gokaiger, due to the damage GokaiOh sustained.
"Guys, pull back. Rachel and I will handle it from here." Sean said to the others.
"Are you guys sure? We can keep going." Tommy said concerned.
"No, stay back. You guys have done enough. We can handle it from here." Rachel told them.
"Alright, good luck and be careful." Daisy said as the five let go of their helms, causing them to spin and GokaiOh to take several steps back to give them room.
XpagebreakX
"So, what's the plan?" Sean asked.
"No idea. How about we keep the show going?" Rachel replied, eyeing their three opponents.
"Not bad idea. Let's show them that bravery knows no bounds." As Sean spoke this, his buckle opened, and his GokaiBlack key glowed.
"hey Sean, my key is glowing." Rachel said, indicating that it wasn't just him.
"Sounds like fun, let's see what we got." He said as they flipped their keys closed.
Ranger Keys: Let's go!
GokaiRobo leapt into the air and began to twist and break apart, combining with GoZyuJin. The Tank Barrel and platform attached to the back, and the tank treads attached to the shoulders, becoming an odd cape of sorts, (think those machine gun things Daramas has) while the Drill Arm opened up and small missile launchers went inside before closing up again. A new fist attached to GoZyuJin's other hand and GokaiRobo's chest piece formed a new chest shield and a new helmet attached to the head to finish the combination.
"WHHHAAAT ISS THAT!" The five main Gokaiger all shouted at once, taken totally by surprise.
"GoZyuJin!" Sean called from his new seat behind Rachel.
"Tank Armament!" The Silver Ranger called as she shared a thumbs up with him. The cockpit was inside the GoZyuJin, and mostly stayed the same, only difference was that Sean was there, and he had a new joystick type controlling device.
"It doesn't matter what you do, you can't stop us!" PhantomRed yelled as he charged at the newly combined machine. However, the two calmly block the attack, punch him with the new fist and slash him with the drill arm.
"Lets try this." Sean said, pulling the trigger on his control handle. The Drill opened and shifted into trident mode as it began spinning, firing several missiles from the launchers that attached to the inside during the combination.
"Gokai Driller Missiles!" the two called as the missiles scored several hits on the monster, destroying it.
The two remaining monsters charged at Upgraded GoZyuJin and battled it for a time before VulgarBlack grabbed them and held them still so DisgustSilver could attempt to attack from behind.
"Tread Rockets away!" Sean yelled. The treads that had attached to the back shifted so they were pointing at the monster coming up from behind and fired several small rockets at it, stopping the attack and allowing the two to focus on the monster in from of them, escaping its grasp and heaving it behind them and right into its companion.
"Lets show them the finale." Rachel said as they inserted their ranger keys and turned. GoZyuJin-TA bent over so the launcher barrel on its back was pointing at the two, energy gathering inside it before it fired, sending a powerful energy laced shell at them, destroying them and disposing of the Psycho Rangers altogether.
"Have I mentioned that Black and Silver are my favorite color combination?" Rachel asked as she and Sean clasped hands in celebration.
XpagebreakX
The crew lounged around as the Galleon flew back to the mainland as the crew told the story of what had transpired regarding the AA Cannons. Hard to believe that it was almost 7 at night, meaning Sean and Rachel had been on the island for nearly 8 hours.
"You see, we submerged the Galleon under the ocean so it wouldn't be detected, and made our way to shore. Then we attached Zangyack explosives to the Cannons at key points." Daisy as she brought Sean and Rachel some drinks, which the two eagerly accepted.
"When the cannons charged to attack us, the explosives overheated and ignited, destroying the cannons, and the facility all at once." Tommy finished for her as he and Deion looked through Sentai books to attach names to the ranger keys from the chest. Kyle looked over and saw what they were doing, and remembered something.
"Gus, look what the Psycho's left us." He said, reaching into his pocket and tossing several small objects into the air. The crew caught them all and opened their hands to look at just what they had caught.
Psycho Ranger Keys.
"this is unexpected." Crystal said, looking at hers.
"I'm not complaining. I always thought they were pretty cool looking." Deion said with a grin as he collected the keys and put them in the chest. Kyle glanced at the clock and got up.
"I better take care of the last of our business for tonight." He said. "Mitchi Love said she could get us three grand powers instead of one, so she wanted me to meet her later."
"I'll go with you." Sean said as he got up.
"Are you sure? You've been fighting for your life most of the day." Tommy reminded him.
"It's fine, the adrenaline is still going on. A quick errand won't kill me." He assured the blue ranger.
"If you sure." Kyle said as they two left the Galleon.
XpagebreakX
The two walked to the remains of the theater as Kyle filled Sean in on their meeting with the Heart Queen. When he and the others had been left for dead by the Psychos in their first fight, Mitci Love was one of the civilians who had arrived to help them. She had the number of another Sentai actor, and wanted him there when she passed on her Grand Power so he could do so at the same time.
"there she is." Kyle pointed. The two hurried a bit to meet her.
"Hello, you must be Gokai Black. It's so very nice to meet you." The second ever pink ranger greeted him. "My friend is running late, so I'll just give you my power and he'll give you yours when he arrives."
"That's fine." Kyle said as he accepted her glowing hand: The gokaiger now had the Grand Power of the J.A.K.Q.
"Never get tired of that." He said with a smile. Sean glanced over to see a man running over to them.
"Is that your friend?" Sean asked.
"That is indeed. Ohba Kenji, possessor of the Grand Powers of Battle Fever J and Denziman." She said as he approached. However, before the multi-roled actor got to them, a strange high pitch trumpet noise came from nowhere and Kenji was enveloped in golden fire, causing him to seize in pain and fall to the ground. The Golden fire, representing the Grand Powers, flew into an alley next to him. The three ran over and as Mitchi checked on him, Sean and Kyle faced the entrance to the alley, shadows blocking the attacker from their vision.
"Whoever you are, get out in the open. Right now!" Sean yelled angrily. The sounds of footfalls told them whoever it was, was complying with Sean's demanded. However they were prepared for what they saw.
Holding the Rapperatta Trumpet in one hand, and two Grand Power Spheres in another, was Basco Ta Jolokia, grinning like the Cheshire cat.
"Well hello 'new Marvy-Chan'. So nice to finally meet you." Basco greeted them.
"Don't "hello" me, what are you doing here!?" Kyle demanded.
"Like you need an answer. I'm after the Greatest Treasure In The Universe. And to do that, I need the grand Powers. Thank you both so much for delivering these to my doorstep." He said happily, slipping the spheres in his pocket.
"Well we're about to take them back from you." Sean said, pointing his gun at him. Basco gave a short laugh and held out his arms gleefully.
"Go right ahead. You can shoot me, but it won't do any good." Basco said. Kyle held out his arm to calm Sean. He had a good enough sense of Basco's character that he knew he wouldn't make a boast like that if he could back it up.
"What do you mean?" The red ranger asked.
"I'm incorporeal. A phantom of a ghost. I'm only here because I've taken over the body of some poor man walking by." Basco said, shocking the two.
"He can't be serious." Sean said, not taking his gun away from the privateer, but his finger was no longer on the trigger.
"Lets find out." Basco said, taking out his own gun and putting it to his neck, causing the two to step back in shock. "No, nothing? You two aren't going to do anything? Ok then. I'll do something." He said, snapping his fingers.
The two were then struck from behind, sending them to the ground in pain. This wasn't the usual "thick armed monster strike" Kyle realized as he got to his hands and knees. This was the old fashioned "wooden baseball bat to the spine" kind of strike, which hurt like hell none the less. Glancing behind them, Kyle saw his attacker was a large black guy, while the guy pummeling Sean was a Latino. Rolling away to avoid another crack in the back, Kyle pivoted on his hands and kicked the black guy into the Latino, giving Sean the time he needed to get to his feet. The two charged at their attackers and started fighting them back, but were forced to focus on Basco when he attacked them from behind with his sword.
With their attention split and already hurt and tired, the gokaiger were easy pickings, getting kicked, punched, and cracked with the bats. The Latino guy seemed to have a real interest in Kyle, focusing on him more than Sean, with several hits to the face, capped off by a kick to the face that broke his nose.
"That's plenty enough Carlos." Basco said. "We can't have them dying just yet. Willy boy, if you'll finish this?"
With a nod, the black guy, "Willy boy" threw Sean into Kyle, sending them both through a storefront window.
"We'd love to stay and chat some more, but we've got places to go, Grand powers to steal." Basco said, turning away, before pausing. "Oh, before I forget, show our friends what we've already got."
The two thugs both held up their hands, in each hand was a Grand power sphere. They recognized them as being GoggleV, Dynaman, Liveman, and TurboRanger. Meaning that in addition to Battle Fever J and Denziman, Basco already had six Grand Powers.
"That should give you something to think about. Have a pleasant day. And before I forget, be wary of DeltaVron: she's much more dangerous than anyway in the Zangyack's invasion fleet." Basco told them with his signature smug grin as he and his two cohorts turned and left. Mitchi Love and Ohba Kenji ran into the store and helped the two to their feet.
"Are you both alright?" Kenji asked.
"No, not even close." Said Sean, but all four knew he wasn't referring to the beating they had just taken.
"We need to get back to the Galleon." Kyle said as they began to hobble off.
XpagebreakX
"I'm a bit worried about Kyle and Sean. It shouldn't have taken this long." Crystal said as she glanced at the clock.
"You know they are, probably just talking their ears off." Tommy said as he played chess against Rachel.
"Yeah, I predict they'll show up right about- Kyle!" Daisy yelled, jumping out of the captains chair and running to tend to her boyfriend, whose nose was bloody and helping Sean walk into the room. Deion and Tommy immediately helped Sean to the couch and laid him down, Crystal running to get the medkits.
"What happened to you two?" Rachel asked as Kyle limped his way to his chair and slumped into it.
"We got jumped by Basco and his gang. He stole a pair of grand powers right out from under us." He said, obviously angry at himself.
"What do you mean?" Daisy asked as she gave him a cloth to press to his nose to stop the bleeding.
"Basco stole Batter Fever and Denziman's Power, and he had two thugs beat on us with baseball bats." He explained. "Not to mention he already had four powers before that."
The galleon was silent as they tried to figure out what to make of this news.
"These guys with Basco, were they human or monsters?" Crystal asked.
"Human, both of them: an African American he called "willy boy" and a Latino guy by the name of Carlos." Sean told them. Both Daisy and Deion straighten, and then ran to their rooms, returning with some photos.
"Are these two them?" The Pink ranger asked. Sure enough, both Basco's new "friends" were in the photos of the green and pink rangers.
"That's them. Who are they?" Kyle asked.
"William is my older brother. A real asshole. I haven't spoken to him in years." Deion said, glaring at the picture.
"And Carlos is my ex. I went out with him for a while but he became abusive and tried to rape me, but Deion and Sensei Frank stopped him and he was locked up. He shouldn't be out of jail yet." Daisy said.
"I don't know if they were being controlled or not, but something tells me they're both doing this of their own free will." Sean said. "And from the way Basco talked about it, he's some sort of ghost that takes people over in order to have a body, but we didn't want to find out if he was lying or not."
"He also implied that DeltaVron was planning something big." Kyle said. He sat in his chair for a few minutes before running his hand through his hair.
"Before, I used to think this war was like chess. Nope, it's a game of Chinese fucking checkers, but we can't see the board which is booby trapped, and we can't see how many people we're playing against." He said to no one in particular as they all sat around, disgusting what they had been told."
XpagebreakX
DeltaVron looked around emotionless as she examined the island. The facilities had been destroyed, along with all the Gotengo troops. And it seemed like her younger brothers luck had finally run out and he had been destroyed. She had become worried when time went by with no communication with either him, nor the Psychos. After going to the Island, she could see why.
Turning, she teleported back to her ship, grabbing the console in front of her as she tried to reign in her emotions.
Another sibling lost She thought. Now it was only her and her older brother OmegaVron. She sent a message to him, informing him of what had happened as she quietly mourned the loss of so much of her family. Soon she received a reply that cheered her up, if only slightly.
It's time. Let's begin
That was the message, but it brought a disturbed grin to her face. After so long, the time of the Vron's was at hand. The Zangyack would be under their control, and the universe would be theirs.
Glancing at the large pods in her lab, she sent her reply. Not only would the Universe be under their control, but her secret weapons were almost ready. The data the Psycho's obtained had put her ZhanJi project back on track.
Turning to Action Commanders she created just for this occasion, she grinned.
"You know what to do?" She asked. Her creations both nodded and bowed before teleporting away. Soon, revenge will be hers.
End Chapter: Roll credits.
Next episode:
As the stakes get higher, the gokaiger are forced into a strange new adventure they couldn't be prepared for. While they fight for their lives, The Vron Coup is set in motion, changing the dynamic of the entire invasion. What are her plans for the Gokaiger, and what is this ZhanJi project?
What is the goal of Basco, and why had he recruited former friends and family of Deion and Daisy to accomplish them?
Find out in 2014's episode: "A Jurassic Problem."
Also, a bit of an Author Note: While a Jurassic problem is indeed the next step in the story, I will be first publishing a Christmas special. This one will be lighter in tone and a bit more fun. It will also not follow the continuity of the story, so don't be upset that they aren't freaking about Basco and such in the next chapter. And it isn't a clip show.
The 2013 Christmas special (and The Accidental Gokai Change's 1 year anniversary of being published):
Welcome to Wherever You Are
The Gokaiger race to save the spirit of Christmas from the Zangyack.
I hope people enjoy this chapter. This one changed during writing and including subplots I hadn't even planned on when I started.
Before I forget, how many people have seen the suit's for the next season of Super Sentai? I have.
AND THEY FUCKING SUCK
I mean, WOW do these blow. They look worse than some of the Pre-ZyuRanger suits we've gotten. I know a lot of people said that the Kyouryger suits sucked when they first saw them, I was one of them, and they later changed their minds, but I don't see that happening with these ones.
I think be a case of the simple fact that Super Sentai is approaching its 38th season, and they might just be running out of new and interesting looks for the suits. I don't know if the show will be any good, but the suits are going to make it tough to watch.
Ok, first things first, the ranger keys found by Sean and Rachel. They include movie exclusive Sentai and one off Sentai that never fought in the legend war for one reason or another. They include, in no real order at all
X1 Mask- from Maskman, who only appeared in episode 39 of the show. If you haven't seen that episode I recommend you do so. It's actually very fun to watch. It was made almost 30 years ago, so naturally the effects aren't near as good as what we're getting in our shows now, but it's still a gem.
Gosei Green- from Goseiger. He never really appeared in the series due to dying before the series itself began, but in epic 10 they do mention him, and even show him and how he dies. This change made a cameo in my Gokaiger/Bleach crossover with koolKen a while back, but that will be explained later.
Green Seal, from the alternate Go-Busters. Yes I know that wasn't the animal for the character, and it was also only in an alternate version, but I wanted to use him because I liked the suit, and I thought a seal would be better than a hippo.
Black Panther- also from the alternate Go-Busters. Changes are made for the same reason as the Green Seal, and included for the same reason.
Deka Gold and DekaBright- both from DekaRanger. DekaGold was a movie exclusive character while DekaBright briefly appeared in the end of the show (she was used for Nova Ranger). I know that technically I don't need any more Dekarangers since the team already has 8 keys, but I'm including them anyway.
Green Eagle and Birdman from Jetman- Technically it's cheating having Green Eagle in the list since he was a manga exclusive character, but I'm including him anyway. Birdman was a character who appeared in episodes 23 and 24 of Jetman before being killed. I'm counting him as an extra hero because he could transform, and was very brave, giving his life avenge his fallen teammates, and to help protect the jetman, especially his love interest blue Swallow.
Mange Warrior, from Bioman- considered the prototype for 6th heroes along with X1 Mask, he only appeared in two episodes.
Beast-Demon hunter Zeek- an extra hero who only appeared in the V-cinema GoGoV a sudden shock. The last of a people exterminated by Juuma Demon clan, he came to earth in pursuit of Golomois and briefly battled against GoGoV, because they were helping people caught in the crossfire instead of battling Golomois. However when he came his senses and passed on his powers, before he himself passed on. If you want to know more, watch the V-Cimena special. It sounds interesting.
If you want to watch these old episodes but don't know where to look, send me a message and I'll tell you.
