I do not own Power Rangers. Currently it is owned by Hasbro. I only own my OCs.

Hey Ranger fans! Just wanted to give a shout-out to my first review from JTWAS1994, who has some favorite fics you should definitely check out. If you have any questions and/or critiques, please feel free to write a review. Until then, it's time for Episode 2...

Myth 2: No "Eye" in Team

Jay was very excited. His whole world had changed yesterday when Power Rangers were confirmed to indeed exist, and that his destiny was to be the Olympian Force Red Ranger. He hadn't gotten any sleep the night before, and he hardly could pay attention to his classes. Math just didn't feel as important as saving the world. His excitement hadn't faltered by the time lunch came around.

"Are you just going to stand there with a stupid look on your face or are you going to sit down and stay a while?" Nate asked impatiently behind him. "Because you're kind of in my way."

"Oh, sorry!" Jay said as he finally sat down. "I've just been thinking about our new 'club'."

"Trust me when I say that we noticed," Mera said as she sat down. "He told the class the square root of 16 was Mississippi."

Nate snorted some milk out of his nose as he started laughing hysterically.

"Either there was a really funny joke being told, or someone doing something stupid," Valerie said as she sat down in her usual seat.

When Nate explained, she started to laugh too.

"Come on, guys!" Jay said. "Don't you think you're overreacting just a bit?"

"Oh the tales I could tell about you…" Mera said mischievously.

"Don't you start," Jay said to Victor as he sat down, gaining a confused look in response.


Jay went into the library after school and headed to the back. When he came up to room O, he opened the door and went inside. As soon as he closed the door, the walls came down to reveal the rest of the Temple was currently occupied by four teenagers and one god.

"I'm the most excited, but I got here last?" he asked as he put his bag down. When no one answered his question, he decided to ask a new one. "So, when does training start?"

"Right now," Hermes responded as he pressed a few Greek letters on the mosaic's keyboard. In response, the weapon cases on the one end of the room spread apart as part of the floor rotated around on an axis to reveal a large sparring mat.

"So, who wants to be first?"

Nate's hand shot up like a rocket

"The main reason I showed up so quickly was so I could go first," he said.

He walked over to a weapon rack and grabbed a trident that was laid on it.

"Who or what am I fighting?" he asked in earnest.

Hermes came floating down with a wooden dummy.

"How about you learning to use it before you attack somebody," he said. "Same with everyone else. Grab a weapon. You may know how to wield the weapons, but you don't know how to use them."

"Then why did you ask?" Nate muttered as the rest of the Rangers grabbed their weapons.

As Hermes floated around from person to person, they practiced with their assigned weapon.

"Victor, use the weight of your hammer to your advantage and use your strength sparingly, you need to be able to hit many enemies with as few strikes as possible so you don't overuse energy."

He left Victor hitting several dummies with his hammer to visit Valerie with her bow and many wooden targets.

"Valerie, the true power of the bow is the range you can strike at without losing your weapon, like you would a spear or trident. The more range you can strike from, the less of a chance of a counter-attack there is."

He went over to Mera next

"Merrida, the spear is a weapon made to do many strikes in little time. The point, as obvious as it may be, is the part you want to be hitting your enemies with, but the dull end can still be used in the other direction as a blunt object."

He then joined Nate in his training.

"Nathaniel, you should follow the same advice I gave Merrida, but you must also be aware of how the trident is angled. If angled correctly, you will be able to hit more enemies at once than most of the others."

Finally, he gave Jay a few pointers.

"Jason, the sword is considered by many to be the simplest to wield, but it is also the hardest to master. It grants you more mobility than any other Ranger, but you must be aware of the distance between you and the target, as well as the angle you are slicing at."

After a few more minutes of training, he signaled for a quick break. As the teens got bottles of water, Hermes removed the broken dummies and replaced them with metallic figures.

"These are the Automatons," he said. "Because they can actually move and fight, they should give you the challenge you need for teamwork drills. First, let's see how you all work in one large group before we try groups of two or three."

The Automatons eyes flashed red as they came to life and drew their swords. The teens grabbed their weapons and walked up to meet them. Nate was the first to strike, stabbing an Automaton in the head with all three points of his trident. He was about to rip the head off when an arrow came and hit him in the arm. While it didn't pierce him, Nate still felt some pain from the arrow.

"Sorry!" Valerie yelled as she rolled out of the way of a sword strike, only to bump into Mera. Because of the disruption of her concentration, Mera dropped her spear as an Automaton smacked her with the side of its blade, sending her flying into Victor, who was swinging his hammer at the time. Because Victor had been swinging his hammer at the time, a force that normally wouldn't affect him caused him to be off balance, so he let go of the hammer. The hammer went flying past an Automaton, and struck Jay in the back of the head. With a cry, he fell to the floor, becoming unconscious before his head even struck the mat.

"Automatons! Shut down immediately!" Hermes shouted as he flew over to the prone form of the Red Ranger. The other teens came over as Hermes landed and bent down on one knee. WIth a mutter of a few words, his hand had a white aura around it for a moment before fading.

WIth a shout, Jay sat up from the floor. As the other teens gathered even closer around him, Jay started to rub the back of his head.

"DId someone get the number on that truck?" he joked before grimacing a little from touching the tender spot.

"I am so sorry!" Victor said. "I just let go and…"

"And smacked me in the head. It's fine. Accidents happen," Jay replied as he got up off the floor before stumbling forward. He was luckily caught by Mera and Nate, one grabbing a shoulder.

Valerie came forward and felt the back of Jay's head.

"Your head should be split open right now, but I only feel a bruise," she said before realizing she had been stroking Jay's hair. She quickly backed away with a mad blush on her face.

"Is it more awkward if I say how awkward that was to watch?" Nate asked.

"Yes!" the other four teens said together.

Hermes cleared his throat before coming forward. "Perhaps there is a way to build teamwork without weapons. Everyone, come with me!"

As Hermes walked towards the opening doors, his toga changed into a white polo and shorts. The winged hat on his head changed into a baseball cap for the Olympia Hills Warriors. His shoes had the wings retract and become a design on the sneakers that now appeared. A parcel bag appeared over his right shoulder.

The teens followed him out the door and found themselves in the Olympia Hills Park. Hermes grabbed two pieces of rope from the parcel bag.

"The three-legged race!" he said as he tied together Nate and Victor, and then Mera and Valerie. "Now, Jay can sit this one out. The trees on the other end of this meadow is your goal! Ready? Set! Go!"

As soon as Hermes said go, both teams tried to run, before tripping up their partners and causing all four to hit the ground.

"That went well," Nate said as he spat a leaf out of his mouth.


Meanwhile, in the Underworld, Hades was on his skull throne again, with Persephone by his side once more. Hades smirked as the teens fell into the grass again.

"It will take a while for these new Rangers to reach the pinnacle of power the original Olympians were at," he said. " I need to take them down now, while they are still inexperienced with the idea of teamwork. And I know just the monster to do that!"

His hand swirled in the blue-flamed brazier before creating a portal by throwing the fireball into the wall.

"My lord," Persephone said, "isn't it too early to bring out that monster?"

"No, my dear" Hades said as the monster jumped out of the portal in the wall. "I think it's the perfect time for the Rangers to meet Argus."

Argus cackled as he opened all of his eyes located all over his body. Some were on his arms, or his legs with a few covered by the armor he wore with a large eye-emblazoned chestplate.

"EYE see trouble for the Rangers!" he shouted.

Hades threw another fireball, creating the portal to Earth grinning as the monster walked through it.

Those teenage brats are done this time! he thought.


After falling down several times along the way, the two teams had finally gotten to the goal. Hermes shook his head.

"There has to be a better way to do this…" he thought out loud. "Wait...that's it! Jay, why don't you try to help them out?"

"What do you...oh! I know what you mean!" Jay said as he put the puzzle pieces together.

"All right guys, follow my lead! Left! Right! Left! Right!" he yelled as he jogged next to the other teens. By following Jay's pace, the others very quickly got a rhythm going, and had reached the other end of the field very quickly.

They were just about to celebrate when a blue flame circle rose up in front of them. Out stepped Argus, the eye creature, and some Spartoi.

"EYE commend you on your teamwork, but EYE can still defeat you! Spartoi! EYE command you to attack!" he said, emphasizing the "EYE" parts.

Hermes ran towards two trees as his hands glowed white. He managed to run in between them and teleported through his godly powers back into the Temple. He quickly sat down at the mosaic computer and quickly started typing out some commands.

The Spartoi were on the Rangers before they could even activate their morphers. Jay grabbed the arm of a Spartoi and swung it around to hit another one in the head, sending it straight into the lake. The body flailed around for a minute before disintegrating.

Nate was grabbed on each arm by two Spartoi as another one came charging at him, trying to hit him in the gut. Nate used the leverage of his grabbed arms to lift himself up to kick the charging Spartoi straight in the chest, sending it flying into the lake as well.

As a Spartoi tried to punch Valerie, she ducked and swept her leg against the legs of the Spartoi. As it crumbled to the ground, she punted the head into the lake and sighed in relief as the head disintegrated into dust.

"At least we aren't polluting the lake," Valerie said to Mera as Mera rolled away from a Spartoi to give it a side kick into the lake.

"I agree that there are benefits to it," Mera agreed. "After all, who knows the effects it could have on the environment if it didn't disappear?"

Victor managed to grab the Spartoi who tried to grab him and put one in a bearhug. He shuffled over to the lake and threw the Spartoi in.

With all of the Spartoi defeated, the Rangers regrouped in front of the lake and crossed their arms and the gems started to glow with power.

"Pink Olympian Power!"

"Yellow Olympian Power!"

"Black Olympian Power!"

"Blue Olympian Power!"

"Red Olympian Power!"

After Jay called out his color, all of the Rangers were surrounded in a flash of their respective color before stepping forward to start their roll call.

"Aphrodite, goddess of love! Pink Olympian Ranger!"

"Athena, goddess of wisdom! Yellow Olympian Ranger!"

"Hephaestus, god of the forge! Black Olympian Ranger!"

"Poseidon, god of the sea! Blue Olympian Ranger!"

"Zeus, god of lightning! Red Olympian Ranger!"

"Using the powers of the past to protect the future! Power Rangers Olympian Force!"

Following that, each Ranger called for their personal weapons:

"Lightning Sword!"

"Ocean Trident!"

"Blacksmith Hammer!"

"Battle Spear!"

"Love Bow!"

The called weapons materialized in the Rangers' hands as they prepared for the battle at hand.

Valerie pulled back her bow string as an arrow appeared. As she let go and fired it, Victor charged with his hammer and got hit in the back with the arrow. While it didn't hurt him, it still disrupted his concentration.

Jay noticed this and took charge

"Alright, we can't have a repeat of practice, so follow my lead!" he ordered. "Mera and Nate, you two try to jab out as many eyes as you can on his arms. Valerie, you aim to shoot at his head. Victor, see if your hammer can crack that chestplate. I'll distract him by slashing his legs. Let's move!"

The other Rangers nodded and went to their assigned tasks. Mera and Nate pulled back their weapons and quickly jabbed repeatedly any eye their weapons could reach. Just as Argus was about to deal with them, an arrow struck him in the face. He roared in pain as, one by one, his eyes were stabbed or shot out.

Jay slid on the ground between Argus' legs, slashing with his sword as he went. Argus fell down to the ground on his knees as VIctor brought his hammer around and smashed it straight into Argus' gut, cracking his chestplate.

"You may have thought that we couldn't work together, but you were wrong!" Jay said as the other Rangers nodded, "and the best way to show it is when we bring our weapons together!"

Very quickly, the Rangers had changed the weapons and had combined them into the Olympian Crossbow. The other Rangers helped brace the crossbow as Jay imbued some of his power into the Lightning Sword.

"Olympic Lightning Storm!" he shouted as he pulled the trigger. "Fire!"

The sword was launched from the crossbow as it sparked with lightning power. It struck Argus straight in the face, and he yelled in pain as he exploded in a large ball of flame.

"Alright," Nate said, "monster vanquished and all, time to go home!"

"You may want to reconsider your original conclusion!" Mera shouted as she pointed behind the other Rangers. "Look!"

The remains of Argus were now surrounded in blue flame as he was put back together piece by piece before growing to a size 50 times his original height. He cackled as he tried to stomp on the now miniscule Rangers.

"EYE don't think you Rangers can conquer this!" he laughed as he kicked down the trees around him.

"Uh, Hermes?" Jay asked through his morpher. "Polyphemus didn't do this! How in the world do we deal with it?"

"No problem, Rangers," Hermes explained as he finally finished his typing. "I was waiting to see if Hades would pull this trick. Because of you learning to work together, I'm sending out the Zords now!"

"Zords?" Valerie asked. "Aren't those the giant robots other teams of Power Rangers have used before?"

"Not just that!" Victor said excitedly. "They're mechanical marvels! By the laws of physics, their internal systems shouldn't be able to support themselves! Especially with all of the abuse they usually take!"

"Someone's really going to enjoy this part…" Nate said saratically. "They can't be that gre- OH MY GOD!"

In the air came a large Red Eagle Zord with ridges on the wings to represent feathers, a large rectangular body that was red with an orange belly and two little small legs with talons, and a Yellow Owl Zord with a silver crest on its head, flat wings and even smaller legs than the eagle.

On land came a Black Bull Zord with silver horns and a trapezoid- shaped body and a Sea-Blue Horse Zord with a darker blue mane and hooves. The Horse Zord's body was a long, thin rectangle compensated by its long, many-jointed legs.

By sea came a bright Pink Fish Zord. It had a darker, magenta tail and dorsal fin that traveled up the length of its body.

Each Ranger jumped up and into their Zord by way of the holes that opened to accept them. Inside each cockpit was a seat, and controls in front, to the left and to the right of the pilot. On the back golden wall was a colored version of their visor surrounded by a circle.

"Alright, everyone," Hermes said over the communicator, "you have to place your Olympian gems in the indents on the left and right of you."

Jay removed the gems from his wristbands and placed them in the little gold-colored indent, and suddenly the systems flashed to life. The same thing happened in the other Zords as the Rangers placed their gems in the designated areas.

"All Rangers report in!" Jay called out over the communicator in the Zords as he pulled a lever, causing the Zord to start flying towards the monster.

"This is Nate, ready to kick some monster butt!" Nate said as he pulled back one of the throttle sticks, causing him to gallop forward.

"Mera responding, all systems are primed and readied," Mera responded as she pulled a similar lever to Jay, causing her Zord to fly right next to the other two in formation.

"Victor calling in, glad to use technology to save the day!" Victor called out as he pushed his joystick forward, which caused his Bull Zord to charge right next to Nate's horse in formation.

"Valerie here! Excited to fight evil in style!" Valerie returned as she pushed her steering wheel forward, which caused her Fish Zord to zoom along like a motorboat through the lake next to the other Zords.

Now completely in formation, the Zords charged forward to hit Argus head-on. As Nate and Victor tried to push him over by striking his legs, Jay and Mera were swooping around his head, distracting him as Valerie shot lasers from the fish's eyes. Their attempts appeared to be in vain, however, as Argus just tossed the land Zords around like rag dolls, swatted the air Zords out of the sky and just ignored the lasers of the water Zord.

"I've always wanted to say this," Jay said. "It's time to bring them together!"

He flicked a few switches before turning a dial from "ZORD MODE" to "WARRIOR MODE"

"Right!" the other four said as they did the same.

The Bull Zord was the first to change, as the head came off, the body split apart and the legs flipped around 180ᣞ and the front and back legs combined.

The Horse Zord was next, as its head went into a chest cavity while the front and back legs combined together and connected to the Bull Zord legs, forming a complete waist, legs and feet.

The Eagle Zord was next. As its wings clipped off together in one long arc-shaped piece and its legs slid into its body before it connected to the Horse Zord, it was now forming the entire body of the combination. The Eagle Zord head screeched and opened up its mouth to fit the other side of the Bull Zord's head into it, revealing a robotic face.

Next came the Owl Zord. As its head detached from the body and the body detached from the wings, the wings clipped onto the sides of the Eagle Zord and expanded, forming the arms.

Lastly was the Fish Zord. As the entire dorsal fin and tail came off, it popped open completely in half before coming onto the Eagle Zord's body as a chestplate and combining together again. The tail folded into a plume that went onto the Eagle Zord's head to complete the helmet look. The horns from the Bull Zord head attached together and became a straight point before combining with the dorsal fin to create a large spear that went into the left hand. The Owl Zord body lengthened itself a bit before the head slid into a hole in the center, finishing the shield, which went on the right arm.

"Olympian Megazord: Warrior Mode ready!" all five Rangers shouted as they all joined together in a single cockpit. Jay was in the front with Nate diagonally to his right, Victor diagonally on his left, Valerie diagonally behind Nate and Mera diagonally behind Victor.

"Uh oh… EYE didn't see this coming!" Argus said as the Megazord walked forward towards him. He quickly got over his fear, however, and charged at the giant robot.

The Rangers shifted their controls to the side, and the shield and spear shrank as the Megazord rolled out of the way of the charge, causing Argus to fall on his face. The weapons quickly expanded to normal size just in time for the spear to stab Argus' cracked chestplate. The Megazord slowly walked forward, pushing the spear in as they went. Argus grunted as the spear was driven in deeper.

The Megazord finally drove the spear right through the monster, but Argus wasn't about to give up. He got up as the hole in his chest quickly regenerated itself.

"EYE am immortal!" Argus shouted as the hole completely filled itself.

"We'll see about that!" Jay said as he pressed his gems on the console, causing the entire cockpit to glow with red energy. "Activate Lightning Javelin!" he commanded.

The other Rangers pressed their gems and the Megazords eyes started to glow as a storm gathered over the two combatants. The Megazord raised it's spear as red lightning struck it, causing the entire weapon to course with red electricity.

"Lightning Javelin!" all five Rangers yelled, "Go!"

The Megazord threw the spear in a straight line, right in the forehead of Argus, causing him to start to spark.

"EYE admit defeat…" Argus said as he fell to the ground, exploding as the Megazord posed in front of the flames.

"THAT WAS AWESOME!" Nate yelled as he got up from his cockpit to join all of the others in the center while taking off his helmet.

As all of the other helmetless Rangers congratulated each other and celebrated, Jay smiled. They had saved the day again, just like his heroes.

"Quick question?" VIctor asked. "how in the world do we get out of this thing?"

Everyone started to laugh as Victor stood there confused.

"Guys? Guys? That wasn't a joke, I'm serious!"


After getting out of the Megazord and getting back to base, the de-morphed Rangers were in the Temple again. Victor was behind Hermes as he typed away in some strange language, Nate and Mera were sparring on the mat and Jay was admiring the armor.

Valerie cleared her throat as she came to stand next to Jay.

"You know, Mera told me how much you loved the Power Rangers, but I didn't realize how dedicated that love would make you to the idea of the team, You're the reason we were able to come together and beat Argus today," she said.

"If one of you was the leader, I'm sure you would do the same thing," Jay replied.

"I disagree," Valerie countered. "No two teams are alike, right? Well, you're the leader this team needs, because you understand all of us and you know how to get us to work together."

"It was a team effort," Jay said as he brushed a speck of dirt off the helmet of the red Ranger suit. "The Power Rangers can do anything, as long as we work together."

The other Rangers walked up and gave Jay a round of applause.

"Well said," Hermes said as he hovered next to the teens, "the reason you could use the Zords today wasn't just because you needed them, but because I knew you could work together to create the Megazord. It can only work when you all are in perfect harmony with each other"

"So we need all five of us to form it?" Mera asked.

"Yes," Hermes said, "each Ranger must pilot their own Zord. Of course, there are exceptions to every rule…"


"No no no no!" Hades said as he threw a mini tantrum before recomposing himself. "I'll just have to be more creative," he said in a calmer voice. "If I can beat them now, they can never stop me!"

Persephone had a worried look on her face,

"Fight hard, Rangers," she whispered. "The planet is depending on you…"

Not quite as long as the last one, but 4k isn't bad. Reviews are nice, knowing you enjoy this is even better! Until next time, may the power protect you.
