Power Rangers In Space
The Empire Strikes Back-Setting 3 years after CtoD (Sept. 12, 2001)
A/N: I don't know much about Sgt. Jason Christopher other than he hates Bosco like everyone else does, so I'm making things up for him as I go along. This also explains the PRiS/TW relationship as Marc and Steve rode with Christopher before he made Sgt.

"Rupert, do you have to tap the theme to COPS all the time?"
"No."
"Then stop." Steve hated working with Bosco. First of all Bosco was well as one of Steve's friends wrote on the car: "Bosco is a Dick". Next, Bosco liked hiding out waiting for a hot call. And finally, Bosco was more annoying than Andros had been.
"Where are you going?"
"My spot."
"55-David to Central show us 10-98."
"10-4 55-David respond to shooting at 57th and Lex."
"I never want to work with you again."
"Thank you."
"Shut up, Rupert."

"Move it." Marc shouted at the Jaguar in front of the RMP.
"Your other right." Faith gave a couple of blasts on the siren.
"Is that Bosco?"
"Let's see RMP traveling at twice the speed limit, Rupert hanging on for dear life, yep that's Bosco."
"Wonder what he's got."
"One of his famous "Hot Calls"."
"Move it, the light is green stupid." Marc blasted on the siren.
"55-Eddie to 55-Charlie where are you, traffic here is at a standstill?"
"I'm about 3 blocks from your call."
"55-Eddie to Central show 55-Charlie responding to our call."
"10-4 55-David requesting backup."
"This should be fun."
"Knowing Bosco."

"27-David, 55s David and Eddie requesting Backup at precinct boundary."
"10-4." Nick sighed it was going to be one of those days again-Bosco being a jerk. Nick arrived at the scene.
"Called for a 27 unit?"
"Yeah, what kept you?"
"Shut up, Bosco."
"He shot him, then he shot her, medics are on the way."
"Couldn't they call Jerry Springer?"
"Instead of using a gun."
"I'll call Ed and Lennie."
"Lets leave it for the 27."
"Bosco, either shut up or I'm going to Sgt. Christopher about your behavior."
"Christopher's had it in for Bosco since the incident with the subway crew."
"Shut up all of you."
"55-David to Central, 27 unit is on scene we're returning to base. I'm having a problem with Boscorelli."
"You'll be out of here in no time."

"Piett, where is my TIE Fighter?"
"Being serviced."
"No one told me."
"I just saw it on the rack."
"Have it readied, I want to go "shopping"."

"BJ, I don't know about this."
"About what, being around Marc and Kyp?"
"Marc has issues and Kyp's nothing but a pest."
"I heard that."
"Shut up, Kyp."
"Marc was 4 when his father disappeared, some say he was killed others say Vader was behind it. The Force came from Marc's father's side so the evidence pointed at the Empire and Saddam was holding Marc as ramson to Admiral Daala but Daala wanted Marc, me and Kyp dead at that time so he backed out of the deal and tried to raise Marc to take his place one day before I showed up and took him home. As a teenager the only person Marc could look up to was the world's most dangerous man. After I got him back to New York, he ran into Steven and they well let's just say that Marc changed alot after meeting Steve."
"And Kyp?"
"The Empire ruined his life completely. His parents spoke out against the Emperor and the Death Star. One night the Empire took Kyp and his parents off to the spice mines of Kessel. His brother Zeth wound up at the Imperial Academy. His parents were killed when the Empire was overthrown by the spicelords. Kyp kept a low profile until Han and Chewie arrived. They escaped from Mourth Doole into the arms of Admiral Daala. She ordered Kyp to be executed but Han and a Maw scientist named Qui Xux rescued him and Chewie and they escaped in a stolen Imperial weapon called the Sun Crusher. Kyp went on to the Jedi Academy where I met him. He went on a spree of destruction with the Sun Crusher until Han stopped him. He killed his own brother. Luke forgave Kyp and Kyp later helped defend the Academy when Daala attacked to avenge Grand Moff Tarkin. I went back to KO-35 while Kyp remained at the Academy. His story with Piett and Houston has to do with an attack on his homeworld in the Anoat System. Houston destroyed the colony and Piett fed tips at her during this."
"So Kyp's steamed with Houston?"
"Not as much as President Bush is."
"Or Andros."
"What has he been up to?"
"He's joining the FDNY."
"Something creative and he's got the best reference, his brother's a cop."

"What is wrong with you?"
"Rupert."
"He said it was you."
"They're out to get me."
"Seems to me that you're getting yourself."
"Shut up."
"That's 30 days no pay." Bosco stomped out of the station.
"Jase, what was that?"
"He'll be written up, again"
"Bosco?"
"Yep. I ordered forms with his name pre-typed on them"

"Lisa Calighan, I thought you were in jail."
"With the Empire out there the last thing some judge wanted to do was throw New Republic Intelligence in jail."
"There she is!"
"Wait!"
"They were following me the entire way here."
"I'll deal with them."
"What can you do?"
"This. Let's Rocket!"
"We're so scared, Stormtroopers." A group of the white-armored troopers appeared out of nowhere.
"Get them!" BJ turned to Lisa.
"Take cover."
"Right." The stormtroopers began their advance when five beams of light appeared and materialized into the other Rangers.
"Rito, Goldar?" Zhane asked.
"You know these morons?"
"Marc, let me show you how to deal with these two."
"CHARGE!" Goldar ran towards Zhane as Rito tackled Marc. Marc sent Rito flying into a tree as several stormtroopers began shooting at him. Zhane meanwhile was getting beat bad at the hands of Goldar thanks to a few stormtroopers who were holding him.
"Guys!"
"Zhane." Jen ran over tackling several stormtroopers and Goldar.
"Thanks."
"Welcome, let's get them." Goldar, Rito and what remained of the stormtroopers began to retreat.

Back at the Megaship, the rangers were trying to figure out who sent Rito and Goldar.
"Not Houston."
"Those stormtroopers were too misorginized for Houston's plans."
"True, and she usually has TIEs hiding somewhere."
"Gary Winston."
"How?"
"Only he would have been chasing me. Only he would have the nerve to attempt to build a superweapon. Houston outlawed the building and designing of superweapons."
"It makes sense now. His communictations project was for the Empire to invade Earth."
"But, how did he get released unless someone was planted on his jury by the Empire."
"We can have Hicks raid NURV and arrest him for terrorism and jury tampering."
"But, the Empire."
"The US Army and Marines seized numerous Imperial assets from Piett's star destroyer and NURV some of which was turned over to NYPD."
"Let's do this."Marc stared at Lisa as she went to gather the military.
"Marc, she won't go out with you."
