Episode Two: Gokaiger vs Gokaiger: Truth's revealed.
The Crew of the Gokai Galleon laid around the floor. After having escaped the battle with the duplicate mechas, they put as much distance between them as they could, hid themselves and passed out from sheer exhaustion.
The next morning, they had all awoke and sat around the table.
"What was that? Who were they?" Rachel asked, checking for coffee.
"Fighting those Gokaiger, it almost felt like how I'd expect to fight the real ones." Kyle noted.
"But those others, they defiantly weren't Gokaiger, even if a few looked like them." Deion said.
"Delta must have whipped them all up to stop us. Realized that those clones couldn't handle it." Sean suggested.
"Maybe. For now, we need a plan." Tommy said.
"We also need food. Bad. Some of us need to do a grocery run." Crystal noted.
"Tommy, you and Sean know the most about how this boat actually works. I want you two checking over everything, make sure that strange lightning storm didn't screw anything important up. Crystal, you and Deion, if they ask help: until then I want you two studying the sensor data we took, try and find a weakness. Daisy and Rachel will help me go shopping. No heroics unless we have to. We're at a serious disadvantage here." Kyle said.
The crew nodded and got up.

Deion leans back in his chair as he and Crystal look over the sensor data.
"This makes no sense. According to the readings, for all intents and purposes, we were fighting ourselves." He told her. He could feel her sarcastic stare burrowing into him. "Not like that. In the sense their powers and weapons were the same as ours, not just in the body structure. Those were different."
"Well, maybe Delta has been working hard and created a copy of the GokaiGalleon." She suggested.
"One that can use the Deka Grand power, or Geki Grand power?" He asked.
"Ok good point. There's gotta be some explination. Maybe a parallel world?" She asked.
"I odn't think so. What about hose others?" he questioned.
"um. Oh, *opens her moribites* Sean, those other fighters at the area, did you recognize any of them?" She asked the black ranger.
"No, and I've been around a lot. Including with the real gokaiger. But I've never met them before." He answered.
"Worth a shot." Deion said. He and Crystal instead shifted their attention to the strange third mecha.

Kyle was uncharacteristically silent as the three walked down the street.
"You ok?" Rachel asked.
"No, I'm still thinking about those other Gokaiger we fought before. I suppose it's possible that Delta created them, but something tells me she didn't. Not to mention their black Gokaiger. I've seen it before I just can't think of where." He told them. Daisy thought, then spotted an ice cream shop.
"Come on, lets get a treat to take our minds off this before we hit the store." She said, dragging the two into the shop. Kyle sat himself down at a table, still deep in thought as Daisy and Rachel went to the counter to order. Once they got their ice cream they turned back to the table. They noticed two girls giggling slightly and turned their heads to see two girls, one wearing a yellow coat and the other in a black one, sitting at a table and eating ice cream. The girl in yellow had a vanilla while the girl in black, who was facing away from them, was eating chocolate. They had their fingers intertwined and had their faces close to each other showing they where most likely a couple on a date.
"Cute." Rachel chuckled at the sight.
"Yea." Kyle agreed, a nostalgic smile spreading across his face.
"Aren't you gonna make a joke about that being hot?" Daisy asked in slight shock
"Sam's a lesbian, if I even THOUGHT about making a joke like that she'd kill me." Kyle chuckled with a smile.
Daisy wanted to say something but Rachel saw a hoard of Gormin charging at them and interrupted.
"Guys heads up, bucket brigade!" Rachel said as the Gormin broke their way through the glass and charged right at them. Rachel and Daisy tried to fight without dropping their ice creams but it was not to be. As the three fought to Gormin off Daisy noticed the pair of women who were on the date helping them fight.
"Hey we appreciate the help but we got this." She said in Japanese
"Oh please kid, this is our job. Why don't you and your boyfriend get lost." the girl in yellow, who looked oddly familiar, said with a light growl as she continued to fight making the girl beside her chuckle lightly. The woman in yellow was wearing a yellow and white striped long sleeve shirt, a pair of black stockings, a pair of blue jean-shorts, lots of rings on her fingers and a pair of white and yellow trainers, she had both brown hair and brown eyes
"Besides, these punks ruined out first date in ages." the girl in black added before she preformed a punch to a Gormin's head and then adding a sweep kick that sent it into her knee strike followed by a roundhouse kick sending it into several others. She was about 25 years old. She had short black hair that was spiked and didn't reach past her chin and bright green eyes. She was wearing a white long sleeve shirt with black vine like patters along the arms, a pair of faded black jeans with rips at the knees and a pair of black boots.
Kyle spun around so quick he almost tore the head off the Gormin he had in the headlock and ran over, kicking his way over to the two grabbing the woman in the black jacket and spinning her around, pure relief filling him when he saw her face. "SAM! It is you!" he called in pure joy
"KYLE?!" the girl in black almost yelled in shock and happiness "What are you doing here?"
"I'm..." Kyle began but the yellow clothed girl grabbed Kyle by the shoulder and pulled him away
"Get your hands off my girl!" she growled at the red wearing boy
"Your girl..." Kyle began before he laughed in amazement and turned to Sam "Already Sammy?"
"Sammy?" Luka asked with a raised eyebrow
"You know I hate that name Kyle!" Sam growled before her eyes turned to the yellow wearing female "And don't you even START Luka!"
"L... Luka..." Kyle said in shock, amazement and realization
"Hey if you guys are finished we need a bit of help here!" Daisy called
"Let's end this quickly Sam." Luka said as she pulled out a Mobirate and Ranger Key making Kyle stumble slightly
"Got it." Sam nodded as she pulled out her own personalized Mobirate and Ranger Key "You'll love this Kyle." the two then ran forwards
"GOKAI CHANGE!" the two called as they ran towards Daisy and Rachel
"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOKAIGER!" the Mobirate's called as Luka transformed into a GokaiYellow and Sam became the black Gokaiger that was in the earlier fight... her own personally designed Gokaiger... GokaiShadow.
"No way..." Kyle muttered in shock
Rachel and Daisy's jaws dropped as they not only realized they were finally meeting the elusive "Sam" who Kyle had been obsessing over, but they had also met Luka, the yellow Gokaiger.
Oh, and there was also the fact that Sam was the black Gokaiger from before.
"I feel like an absolute idiot. I must have seen that ranger key a million times. How do I not recognize it?" Kyle said in disbelief.
"looks like those Gormin have backup. Should we help?" Rachel asked.
"yeah, come on." said daisy as the three ran outside and rejoined the fight.
"hey what are you three doing? We got this!" luka shouted at them, not happy that Kyle had made a beeline right to Sam.
"we heard, but hanging out on the outside isn't our style." said Daisy as she threw a Gormin down a flight of stairs.
Sam struck a sugomin and turned to Kyle.
"Listen, I know how good at fighting you are, but you can't handle these things." she told him. Kyle smirked his signature smirk.
"Don't worry your pretty head about me. I've got some new tricks since we last met, like this." turning to face the sugomin, Kyle held up his right hand so she could see his GokaiRed ranger key. Effort folding it up and sliding it into his moribites.
"Gokai Change: Goookaiger!"
Transforming, kyle blocked a strike with his sword and pointed his gun at the sugomins stomach and opened fire.
"Let's not let him show us up." Rachel said as she and Daisy took up positions next to Luke and transformed.
"Gokai Change: Goookaiger!"
"No. Fucking. Way." Sam muttered in shock before she got angry "You stupid asshole Kyle Robert Howell! Why didn't you recognize me and, I don't know, STOP THE STUPID FIGHTING?!" Sam yelled in rage as she charged, slashing at Gormin as she attacked
"Hey! I wasn't paying much attention! I was kinda buissy getting my ass handed to me... wait... I got beaten by Captain Marvelous didn't I?" Kyle answered back
"Yes you did." Sam nodded as she flipped over a group of Gormin that Luka slashed to pieces with her Sword Dance technique
"Awesome." Kyle gushed
"Can you stop being a fanboy for a moment and help us big red?" Rachel asked as she twirled her trident and struck down all the Gormin in her range.
"Right sorry. Let's clean up shop. Sam, I swear to god if you vanish on me when I'm not looking I will never forgive you!" he yelled to her as he ran over and helped Daisy against a Sugomin.
"Listen, I'm sorry, but it wasn't my choice!" Sam argued as she kicked a Gormin in the face and blasted another in the gut "I was sucked into this world when I was watching the first episode of Gokaiger again! It was just as the first morphed fight of the series was about to start and I did the morph scene with them with my eyes closed. When I opened my eyes at the end of the roll-call I was in the show!"
"It took weeks for us to actually believe her." Luka nodded with a slash of her blade-whip
"That's nothing. Tommy and I were almost hit by a genie who likes to ride around in meteors. He granted my wish to be a gokaiger. Same day you went missing I might add." Kyle said as he gave a Gormin a slash from his sword and shooting it.
"look out!" Luka yelled, using her sword whips to pull Daisy and Rachel out of the wave of energy blasts from an exceptionally ugly action commander who had just arrived. No doubt one of Delta's creations.
"I'm going to smash all of you...I thought the black one was a guy?" it said once it got a look at Sam.
"and that's what I've been having to deal with." kyle dead panned.
"I had to deal with that stupid Nanonada guy." Sam shot back before she got into a thinking pose "Although i DID get to see Luka in a maid costume in person... and now I get to see it whenever I want."
"You lucky bitch." Kyle muttered with slight jealousy before he shook his head when he FELT Daisy glare "I mean... erm..."
"Just give up my brother-in-all-but-blood, there is literally NOTHING you could say to get out of that." Sam chuckled softly, patting Kyle's arm
"Who IS this guy anyway?" Luka asked
"Oh, sorry." Sam said in embarrassment "Luka, this is Kyle, one of my brothers. Kyle, this is Luka, one of my girlfriends."
"One of?" Rachel asked in shock while Kyle shock his head with a light chuckle
"Both Luka AND Ahim, Sam?" Kyle asked with a light smile
"Yep!" Sam said with almost pride
"Tommy SOOOO owes me fifty bucks."
Realization then seemed to hit Sam before she turned back to Kyle
"Tommy was the Blue Ranger wasn't he." she said, although it was a statement more than a question
"Yea." Kyle nodded sheepishly
"I am going to kick him in the balls later." Sam said seriously in annoyance before she turned to Luka "Remind me to kick Tommy in the balls later."
"STOP IGNORING ME!" the Action Commander suddenly roared in anger. Kyle and Sam locked eyes through their visors for a second before sharing an unseen smirk and turned to the AC
"You say something?" they asked in unison making the AC fall to the floor face first
"so, how realistic are those powers of yours?" Kyle asked as he cracked his neck.
"how realistic are yours?" Sam shot back
"Okay then. How about you choose which Sentai we use to deal with this loser."
"Chan-Chan-Bara Chanbara!" Sam began as she pulled her Mobirate
"Oh no, she's like Kyle." Daisy mumbled in slight annoyance
"At least she can sing." Rachel chuckled
"Chan-Bara-Bara Chanbara!" Kyle replied with a smirk as he pulled out the ShinkenRed Key, Daisy and Rachel pulling out the ShinkenPink and ShinkenGold Keys respectively while Luka grabbed the ShinkenYellow Key. Sam had grabbed a white Key
"Gokai Change!" the five called together
"Samurai Sentai..." Kyle and Sam called together
"SHHHHHHHINKENGER!" their devices called. They all became the Shinkenger of their Keys, Sam becoming a white Shinkenger with the Kanji for 'Steel' on her helmate
"Appare!" the two called again as they both posed like Takeru at the end of the Shinkenger roll-call
Kyle twirled his sword and smirked "We've been authorized to kick ass across the multiverse, and we're not afraid to do it." he bragged as the five charged at the monster, fighting it.
"So, you're this Sam that Kyle's been obsessing about for the last few months?" Daisy asked as she slashed at the monster
"I guess." Sam chuckled as she looked at Kyle with a raised eyebrow before she kicked the AC only for it to be double slashed by Luka and Rachel
"I was worried, okay?!" Kyle groaned before he span the Secret Disc on his Shikanamaru making it become surrounded by flames "Rekka Daizanto!"
"So, who are you?" Sam asked as Kyle began to literally smash the AC into the ground with his stupidly large weapon
"I'm his girlfriend, Daisy!" the pink ranger told her, slightly jealous with how Kyle had been acting towards Sam since finding her.
"I'm Rachel." said the currently gold ranger awkwardly standing off to the side
"Wow." Sam said before she looked Daisy up and down. She then turned her head to Kyle, who was still fighting the AC... well, still slamming him into the ground with the Rekka Daizanto, and yelled "Kyle!"
"Yea?" Kyle called back to them
"Never thought you would get such a hot girl!" Sam called back "Nice going Little Bro!"
Kyle set the Rekka Diazanto on the Action commander and stood on the giant sword.
"What can I say, I leaned some good tricks watching you all these years." he joked before he started to jump up and down on the monster.
"Well, I AM an awesome teacher." Sam chuckled back, shacking her head at the other's current actions
Grabbing his sword, Kyle finished off the monster and put it out of his misery before changing back into GokaiRed and walking over to the others just as the two teams of Gokaiger arrived. Kyle knew which was his easily and turned to it.
"Tommy me boy this be a joyous day." Kyle said in a Scottish accent.
"And why is that?" he tentatively asked, not sure what was going on. Sam chuckled and stood next to Kyle.
"Come on Tom-Tom, don't you recognize me?" she asked.
"Wait, I know that voice. No no no, are you telling me that's.."
Sam and Kyle demorphed and grinned.
"Sam!" Tommy yelled happily, demorphing as he ran over and gave her a hug which she returned happily.
"Hey bro." Sam smiled as she hugged her brother lovingly, tears finally starting to fall "Miss me?"
"Goddamnit we couldn't find any trace of you. And lord knows we tried. It was like the earth was scrubbed clean of any sign you were there." Tommy said, his voice cracking a bit, glad to see her after so long. Kyle was grinning like a mad man.
"We three back together. Delta and her goons are going to wet themselves when they see what we can do." he said before glancing at his team "uys relax. This is Sam."
"What!" the group gasped
"Really?" Crystal asked
"Yeah." Kyle nodded as Sam pulled away from Tommy and turned to her team just as Marvelous' mind
"Who are you guys and how do you know Sam?" Marvelous asked
A quick jock suddenly flashed into Sam's mind and she said "Marvelous, Joe, Doc, Ahim, Slayer, Pride, Insarn, Sid, this are my brothers, Kyle and Tommy, and their team."
"Insarn?! Sid?!" the other team gasped in shock as Sam's team all demorphed
"Who are Slayer and Pride?" Deion asked. He trusted Kyle and Tommy but he was also careful.
"Wait, where they part of those four we fought yesterday?" Sean asked.
"Yes we where. Assholes." Slayer mumbled
"Slayer and Pride are the human-sized versions of the Grand Powes of MagiRanger and GaoRanger." Sam explained
"You certainly have been busy." Tommy said.
"Yeah. But I think you should apologize for what you did to them" Sam said.
"Your right. Sorry about kicking your asses and almost killing you. My bad." Kyle said almost flippantly, like it didn't matter.
"Why you little..." Insarn growled
"Kyle!" Daisy chastized
"Wha... ow!" Kyle began only to be slapped on the back of the head by Sam "What was that for?!"
"For being a jackass. Now, appologize this second, and don't get smart with me mister." Sam said
"Yes, MOM." Kyle joked. Sam raised her hand again and he flinched "Okay. Okay. I'm sorry. Happy now?"
"Yep." Sam nodded
"I'm glad your here to keep him in line. He's been acting all... Kylie since you vanished. More so the usual." tommy said with a chuckled watching the two.
"Ok, what's going on here exactly?" Marvelous asked.
