Galaxy's Edge, an Overview
(Written 10/12/04)
While revising these stories, I thought I would give a quick look at the story that never got on the site called Galaxy's Edge.
About two days after the Rangers lifted off from the NASADA center, their shuttle is caught in a tractor beam with a larger ship. They disembark from the shuttle, and explore the mysterious ship. While exploring, they meet Zhane, a human from the distant planet of KO-35. Zhane introduces them to the rest of his AstroMegaShip.
Suddenly, they come under attack by the Fortress of Evil in which Astronema, the princess of evil and her general, Ecliptor, are chasing Zhane under Divatox's orders. Zhane gives the humans new Space morphers, and they become the Space rangers. They continue along to Galaxy's Edge, and learn of many things along the way. They learn that if Divatox drains Zelda of her magic, then she can rule the galaxy with it.
With a bit of dramatic irony, the readers would have learned that Astronema was really a KO-35 citizen named Karone, who was Zhane's cousin and kidnapped by Ecliptor and Divatox when she was young, and turned evil. The readers for a brief time would see a good side to Astronema/Karone, as she battled with her feelings until Ecliptor installed a microchip inside her to block all good emotions.
As the rangers neared Galaxy's Edge, Ecliptor revealed his true plans. He was using Astronema, and had her kill Zhane. After this, Samantha led the rangers in a battle, destroying the Fortress of Evil and Ecliptor. Where Lost Dimension picks up is where Galaxy's Edge ended.
