Chapter 2
Ranger's to the Rescue
It's been at least four months now since Eric, Michal, Alex and Kelvin were brought to the world of Eostia, and life has been good…well as good as being stuck in a medieval world can be. It wasn't easy adjusting to this new world but they made it work, they even started their own bakery so that can earn money. Which brings us to here, a small village just along the border that separates Kin and the land of Olga the dark queen, it was nice place to live but it was heavily fortify to keep Olga's forces at bay due to its high walls and guardsman patrolling the top of it.
"Alright sir, that'll be five gold pieces please" Eric said to a customer
Said customer then fished out said gold and placed it on the counter as Eric handed him the bread.
"Thank you sir and come again" Eric said has he waved the customer off
Eric then placed the gold in their savings jar they kept under the counter and made his way back. He then stepped through the door; Eric was hit with the wonderful aroma of baked bread and chocolate cake. In the room there was Michal who was in the middle of taking a loaf of bread out of the oven, and Alex and Kelvin were in the middle of decorating some cookies and cakes.
"How's everything going you guys?" Eric asked as everyone turned from their tasks
"Just finished up the last loaf for the day" Michal replied placing the fresh bread on the cooling rack.
"Just about done with these cookies here and Kelvin is just putting the finishing touches on the cake" Alex added as Kelvin nodded at this.
Eric smiled at this, seeing his friends working together like this. It was nice change of pace from when we first arrived, we were literally fish out of water and we had no idea what to do with our selves. Luckily for us the village that found us took great care of us and helped us get up on our feet. So now here we are, being bakeries for the people and enjoying life as it goes by… at least for now.
"Guys, how about we take break for a second, we need to discuss our plan" Eric said as they nodded at this
So once everyone put aside their tools, they all made their way into their "secret planning area" to discuss there plan to save this world. Inside this room were tons of maps, documents and pictures all across the room, some pinned to the wall and some strewn across a large table.
"Alright guys lets recap what we know" Eric said as the three others listened, "To recap, we have landed in the world of Eostia and currently were right smack dap in middle of the war between Celestine and Olga" he said as they nodded
"And if I remember correctly the plot of the "show" starts with the capture and … defilement of Olga and Chloe" Alex uncomfortably said making everyone cringe
"So what you're saying is we need to save Olga and her handmaiden, right?" Michal asked as Alex nodded
"That's good…now how do we do that?" Kelvin asked as the others grimaced
"Not sure yet, still figuring that part out" Eric replied causing everyone to sigh
"Then guess we keep doing what we've been doing, keep a low profile and wait for our chance" Alex said as everyone nodded at this.
Once our business was done, we got back to work and just in time as another costumer walked in through the door.
"Hello there, what can I do for you today?" Eric asked as a woman stepped up to the counter
"Yes I was wondering if I can get a couple of biscuits." Women asked as Eric nodded
"No problem" Eric replied and went to grab the biscuits, "So any big plans today?" he asked as he put the biscuits into a box.
"Yes actually, my sister are planning to go into woods later today, were going to pick some berries today" the women replied
Eric's eyes then widen in fear knowing full well what lies in those woods.
"Um, are sure that is good idea miss…" Eric said as the women smiled
"Beth, Beth Autumn" she answered as Eric placed at the box biscuits on the counter
"Miss Autumn, you sure going into the forest is a good idea?" Eric asked making Beth quite confused
"I don't see why it's not" Beth replied
"Well, you know because of the…orcs" Eric said making her shiver
"Yes I realize that, but they've been quite for some time now, I think it will be safe" Beth said sounding quite sure of herself.
Eric grimaced at this, already seeing the danger that would happen, but she didn't seem like someone that can be persuaded. So once she payed, Eric gave her the biscuits and watched her walk out the door.
"Just be careful okay" he called out as Beth smiled
"Don't worry I will" she replied as she left he's sight making him sigh
"Then why don't I believe it."

In the capital city of Kin, gazing upon her kingdom was Celestine, the goddess reborn. She stood in the clear afternoon sun having he hair flow through her long blond hair; she wore usually attire with her crown on her head and her reviling white dress. Currently Celestine was deep in thought thinking over a new vision she had; well new vison wouldn't be the right word more like a changed vision. It happened later that night when she fast asleep, it was the same vision she saw every time she closed her eyes. All of Eostia was in flames, men dying in the streets and women raped by mercenaries and monsters alike, and like always she can't see who was responsible since everything is dark and shrouded in shadow. But this time something changed, she's in the middle of her vision it was playing out as normal like every other time until out of nowhere a bright white light swept over the entire city. It was so bright causing her to cover her eyes but in the light Celestine could make the shape of four people, there features were obscured by the light but she made out a few details. One the people had a golden tiger, another had a reptile like head, the third one had a pair of flashing red lights on the sides of its head and the last one's head resembled that of a rhino. The four beings then raised their hands to the sky; bring down a beam of light that covered the entire area that eradicated all the monsters causing the people around her to cheer and weep tears of joy.
"My vision has stayed the same for years, so why has it changed now?" she asked herself
So many questions filled her head, why now has her vision changed, what is the meaning of that light and who are those people she saw? Celestine then looked beyond her kingdom and in the distance she could see the stormy clouds of the Olga's lands, her old friend, seeing that stormy land she couldn't help but let out sigh at this.
"Oh Olga you were so good at finding hidden meanings in dreams" Celestine said mournfully
(~~~~~)
In the village, the four of them had closed their shop for the afternoon and were now in the middle of having lunch together.
"I must admit dude, one of the best things about owning a bakery, you get make the best bread ever" Michal said taking a bite out of his sandwich
"True that, just as long as Eric doesn't make it" Kelvin said making Eric groan
"You burn one piece of bread and no one lets you forget it" he said as he sat down with others
"Um, one piece, try the whole loaf" Alex said making everyone laugh out loud, while Eric rolls his eyes
"Yeah sure laugh it up, but who do you think came up with the idea of bakery" Eric said with a smug smirk making them stop laughing
"Okay good point" Michal said with a pout
Eric then snickered at this, seeing he won this argument. But before he could dig into lunch a loud bell could be heard throughout the village, causing them to run outside to see what's going. Once they made it outside they saw most of the people running inside their homes and started to lock their doors and windows. Not only that, but there were guardsmen seen running to the walls with swords and spears in arms. Michal then reached out grabbed one of the guards by his arm, getting his attention.
"Hey what's going on here?!" Michal asked
"A band of orcs has been spotted heading to the village, we need to set up our defenses so if you don't mind" the guard said shacking off Michal's hand
Hearing this, the four eyes widen in shock at this. It's been days since another monster attack so why of all times, so far the guards have been able hold them off but it's getting worse by the day.
"You think we should?" Kelvin asked though they knew what he meant
"No, were trying to keep a low profile remember until our chance comes" Eric replied causing Michal to groan in frustration
"Aghh, this bites we have these powers now, why don't we use them!" Michal shouted in frustration
"Because if we do, we might attract some unwanted attention from either side of this war" Alex explained, hoping to defuse their friend.
The four of them were about to go back to their shop to lock up, until something caught their attention.
"Help, please help, I can't find my daughters!" a voice said
They then looked over and found an old man shouting into the sky. Seeing this Eric then made his way over to old man to see if he can help.
"I'll help sir, where was the last place you saw your daughters?" Eric asked, hoping to do some good today
"They said they were going into the woods to pick some berries today" the old man replied
Eric's eyes then shrank in fear and shock; he could feel sweat going down his face as realized who he was talking about…Beth. Eric then stepped back from the man and slowly went back to others his head held low. Seeing this they were confused by his sudden change, there confusion then changed to shock when Eric took the last thing he would take out…the Mighty Morphin Morpher.
"Eric, what are you doing?" Alex asked
Eric then looked up at his friends with a serious look in his eye.
"Guys, let's do this" he said shocking them
"But I thought you said…" Kelvin said
"Forget what I said!" he shouted cutting him off, "Someone out there is in danger of losing their life or worse, and I refuse to stand by and let someone lose someone precious to them…not again" he said making the other three look away down casted.
Kelvin then stepped forward and unfurled his sleeve reveling a bracelet with a symbol of a three claw marks with fourth one going through it.
"Let's do it" Kelvin said with smile
Alex then stepped forward and rolled up his sleeve too, revealing his Omega Morpher.
"You know I will always be by your side" he said with a determined look
Michal then chuckled as he rolled up his sleeve to reveal a white gemstone only for it change and turn into white dino morpher.
"It about darn time" he said with a smirk
Seeing everyone was ready Eric then put his hand into his pocket and brought out his Tiger Power Coin, and then placed into the morpher.
"Let's do this"

In forest, Beth and her sister Marron were running as fast as they could, trying to get back to the village and away from the band of Orc's that were following them.
"Come on sis, run were almost their" Beth said trying to assure her little sister
"Uh, sis my legs hurt though" Marron replied in tired voice
"Just ignore it, keep running" Beth replied
Just up ahead they could see the village through the clearing, they were going to make it, and they were going to. Suddenly Beth felt her feet leave the ground as she was hoisted into air. Beth's eyes shrunk in fear as her captor… was an orc. The monster had sickly green skin, a large fat body and tusks that stuck out of its mouth. The filthy creature practically wore nothing but a brown cloth around his waist but Beth could see the bulge growing from underneath. Beth then heard a scream, turning she saw her sister pinned down to the ground by another Orc, licking its lips with a lustful gaze.
"No please, don't touch her, just use me, not her just me!" Beth shouted hoping to deter the monster but it was all for not.
The orc that was holding her then reached forward and grabbed the front of her sundress, making her gasp.
"Please don't" Beth weakly begged
But with one strong pull, the orc ripped all the clothes off her body, undergarments and all, leaving her naked as the day she was born. The orc then raised its cloth, reveling it large penis to her making her tear up in fear. With one final bit of energy, as the creature mover her closer to its manhood, she turned her head skyward and shouted out.
"Someone! Please help!"
Suddenly and orange light then erupted outward from the tree's causing a huge explosion, causing the two orcs to stumble back in surprise and threw their "prizes" into the air making the two woman scream in terror. Suddenly a white object then jumped out from the trees and grabbed the two women and placed them on the ground. They then were covered in a large blanket to hide their nakedness, then a voice then spoke spooking the two.
"Sit tight you two, we'll handle this" It said
Then a figure jumped over them and landed right in front of them, making them see there savior.
(Play Jungle Fury theme)
"Hey you two, that's no way to treat a lady!"
The figure wore white suit, with black shoulder pads, a black belt around his waist and a logo of three claw marks on his chest. He's helmet was white and was shaped like that of a rhino with black glass over its eyes. In his hand was an orange gauntlet that looked like a fist with the same logo.
The orc's then charged at the strange person, their fists raised ready to smash him. But to their shock the person then grabbed their fists with ease and pushed them back, only to follow up with a punch to their guts sending them flying back.
"Had enough!" the warrior said
The orc's then got back up with a grunt, rage evident in their eyes.
(End theme)
But before then could move and huge blast of energy then erupt from the ground, toppling the two monsters.
"Sorry mind if I cut in?" another voice said as another person stepped from the tree lines
(Play SPD theme)
The person wore a white and blue suit, with a golden roman numeral six on his body. His helmet was white with a large black visor and two blinking red lights on the sides of its head, along with a golden shield on its forehead.
Once the monster were back up, the person then jumped forward and delivered a split kick to the orc's head making them stumble in pain.
(End Theme)
While the Orcs were stunned suddenly a white and black blur rushed out cut across the orc's chests causing some deep gashes. The blur then jumped up on a branch and revealed another white suited person.
(Play Dino Thunder Theme)
This one had black, sharp markings on its arms and legs, a large chest plate that covered its upper chest and shoulders with black spikes on the shoulders. Its helmet had what looked an avian creature on its forehead and a sharp red visor. In his hand was a dagger like weapon that was shaped like that of a bird's feather.
"Sorry was I supposed to wait for my turn?" The person taunted making the Orc's growl
One of them punched the tree hoping to knock the figure off but all he did was jump off and landed on the ground safely.
(End Theme)
The Orc's then lumbered over to the three white warriors clutching their chests in pain as blood flowed from their wounds.
(Play Mighty Morphin Theme)
But there advance was stopped when a flying sword then flew out from the front of the path and sliced the two orc's throats with ease, causing them fall to the ground in a heap. The sword then flew back in other direction, only to be caught by a white gloved hand. Then behind them was a fourth white warrior, this one having a black chest plate with a strange symbol on the front and golden shoulder pads, along with this he also golden bracelets on his arms. His helmet had a black visor that was surrounded by a golden Tiger faceplate.
"Looks like you two could use some help" the figure said as walked up front to join with the others.
Seeing the strange warrior the two women were in shock and what they just saw.
"Who…who are you?" Beth asked as the tiger warrior stepped forward, sheathing his sword as he did which looked to have a tiger head on the handle.
"Miss…were the Power Rangers"
(End theme)
Suddenly everyone then heard a couple of grunts coming from behind them, quickly turning around they saw a huge group of orc's, all them looking quite pissed by the death of their comrades.
"Did you do this?! Who do you think you are to do this and keep us from our prize!" one of the orcs shouted
The four warriors then walked forward and stood in line in front of them.
"Who are we…let me tell you" the tiger warrior said as turned to others, "guy's rollcall!"
(Play White Ranger Tiger Power extended)
"TigerZord, Mighty Morphin White Ranger!"
"Drago Power, Dino Thunder White Ranger!"
"Force from the Future, SPD Omega Ranger!"
"With the power of a rhino, Jungle Fury Rhino Ranger!"
"We are the light that shines on Eostia, saving the innocent and thwarting evil, we are White Hope!"
With a shout the orcs then charged at the team, clubs and maces raised over their heads while the Rangers then charged as well, raising their own weapons.
"Let's show him whose boss around here!" The tiger Ranger shouted
"You got it!" the other shouted
Then with a single jump the Tiger Ranger was first to enter the fray, one orc raised his club to smash him but Tiger dodged the attack and kicked the orc in the gut sending him to the ground. Tiger then jumped on the Orc and stabbed his blade into the orcs chest, killing it.
"Sorry for getting you messy there Saba" Tiger Ranger said to his blade
"I'm a sword, I'm meant to be dirty" the tiger head spoke
Another Orc then swung its club at him only for Tiger to block it with Saba. He then pushed back sending the club out the greenskins hand and slashed across its neck, causing blood gush out its neck. Tiger then kicked behind him, nailing another orc sending it flying into another one. Tiger then jumped forward delivered a flurry of punches to another orc's stomach until hitting with an elbow strike sending it flying into another group of orcs. Turning around Tiger saw another group behind him; weapons raised, but Tiger then twirled Saba around in his hand so that Tiger hand was pointing at the orcs causing white beams to shot out the tiger eyes and blasted the orcs sending them to ground dead.
"Thanks Saba" Tiger said
"It was my pleasure" Saba replied
Drago Ranger was busy with his own group as he kicked an orc back from him making him fall over. Dino then saw five more coming at him but Dino then rushed forward with incredible speed and started to slash at the orcs causing multiply gash and cuts on their bodies. Once Drago stopped the orcs then fell over dead as Drago looked at his handy work.
"Now that going to hurt" Drago said
He then dodged another attack from an orc and then slashed across it's chest causing blood to come spewing out, killing it. Another Orc tried to smash Drago but he just grabbed its fist with ease and slashed across it throat killing it as well. A third orc then came up behind him with a mace and swung down at him, but Drago back flipped away from the mace and kicked the creature in face in the process. Once he was far enough Drago then started to "draw" in the sky making multiply glowing arrows.
"Laser Arrows, Fire!"
The arrows then shot forward scorching the orcs and piercing them as well, once the arrows were gone all that was left were a bunch of bodies with holes in them.
"Ha, too easy" Drago said resting his blade on his shoulder.
Omega Ranger then punched an Orc in the face, cracking it jaw in the process. An orc then made a grab for him but Omega then grabbed it arms and flipped it over his shoulder sending it crashing into another group of Orcs.
"Come on whose next?" Omega said
Then five more then charged at him all them raising their weapons.
"All five you, that's fine, just let me charge up a bit" Omega said
He then pulled the handle on his omega morpher up and started to twist the handle causing his glove to glow orange.
"Omega Morpher, Blast Mode"
Omega then slammed his fist into ground causing a huge explosion causing the group to go flying in multiply direction. Another was coming to the side of him but Omega just swept his legs out from under him making fall to the ground, until Omega then brought down his foot on the Orc's throat, crushing it.
"Looks like your friends could use some juice, allow me to help with that" Omega said twisted the handle again
This time his glove glowed yellow causing electricity to surge off it.
"Electro Mode!"
Omega then grabbed an Orc's arm causing electricity to course through it body and started to chain to other orcs, causing them all fall to the ground like dominos.
"Piece of cake" Omega said cracking his neck
Rhino Ranger was busy pumbling another orc in the face with his gauntlet until hitting him straight in the face causing it to cave in. Another one came at him but Rhino hit straight in the gut stopping him dead in his track.
"How about we go for a ride?!" Rhino said
He then hosted the monster into the air; still on his fist, until uppercuting it into another group. He then landed on another Orc sending to the ground until stomping its face in. Another batch of orcs then came up to him but he then jumped into the air avoiding them. He then pointed his gauntlet at the group as orange spikes jutted from the fist.
"Rhino Morpher, Stamped!"
A flurry of orange blasts then shot out and stuck them, causing them to bore into their chests. Once he landed, he then blocked a fist coming at him with arm until flowing it up with a kick to it face, again crushing it skull in.
"You shouldn't have messed with me" Rhino said lowering his Rhino Morpher.
(End Theme)
Looking around the rangers saw that all the orcs were defeated and that all that was left were just there beaten corpses. They then looked each other over and to their surprise there suits stayed clean through the whole ordeal.
"Huh, never realized these things are stain-proof" Rhino said
"Guess that's power ranger logic at work" Tiger said sheathing Saba
Tiger then walked over to Beth and Marron and crouched down to be eye level with them.
"Best you get home, your father is worried sick about you" he said
Beth reached forward and gave him a hug, causing the blanket to fall off much to tiger's embarrassment.
"Thank you! Thank you so much!" Beth said as Tiger patted her back
"Your welcome, now hurry along home" Tiger said as she let go
Once she did, Beth and Marron made their way back to the village as they waved the Rangers off. Once they were out of sight, they then crossed their arms.
"Power Down"
In a flash of light, they were back to their normal selves that being Eric, Michal, Alex and Kelvin. They then looked over there handy work and couldn't help but be impressed, slightly.
"Geez that was crazy" Kelvin said
"Yeah no kidding, never realized how strong we really are when morphed" Alex said looking over the battlefield
"Guess that means we just need to be careful right Eric?" Michal asked
But they looked over they saw him staring at where Beth and Marron had gone. Alex then walked over to him placed an assuring hand on his shoulder.
"Hey you did a good thing today, there safe because of us" Alex said making Eric look away with serious look
"Yeah, I know…but at what cost".
