A/N: Good morning folks. I know it has been a few months since I have posted. For that I do apologize. I no longer work at my former work due to some labour issues that has been going on for almost half a year. I am working at a new place and so far, they have helped me out alot more in a week so I am very happy about it. I should be back doing regular updates and I want to thank you for your patience. I do hope the creators of the characters are still reading. I would love to thank SnowBranwen, Lewamus Prime 2019, Arctic4Queen, Colton989 and powerking for submitting their characters. Sadly, I don't own the Power Rangers. That privilege belongs to Hasbro! A little tidbit, sounds like Power Rangers 2 Movie (Working title) is in the works and will be a reboot of the reboot Here's hoping! Anyways, enjoy! I have no knowledge of surfing so my experience will come from youtube videos and google.

Power Rangers: Galactic Force

Chapter: Saturn Protection!

"You got this Neo!" Olivia shouted from the crowd.

Neo pushed himself up on his board, balancing himself against the tide. He spots his first wave and angles himself towards it. When he came up on it, he veered to the right with a cutback with the purpose of a tube ride which quickly followed shortly after. The crowd was cheering as he rode a perfect tube ride and he emerged on the other side. At the end of the ride, he came to the lip of the wave and projects his board to the beach, grabbing the rails and manages to land before connecting with the water, throwing his arms in the air as he glides back onto the beach.

"Well folks, that was one hell of a ride. It shows why Neo is the best surfer on the Reevesville Knights team," the announcer shouts as Neo is highfived by his team. Well, most of the team as Derek avoids him.

"Tomorrow, we will talk about that Superman move," his coach told Neo seriously. Then he broke into a grin. "But for now, lets enjoy the victory. Burgers and drinks are on me tonight."

Neo found himself nodding but then he remembered something and his eyes went wide. He was totally late and will hear about it. He waved goodbye to his team and ran down the beach though he stopped when Olivia came to give him a hug.

"You came?" Neo asked, slightly surprised.

"Of course I did," Olivia chuckled. Neo and Olivia began to walk back towards campus.

"I thought you had a date?" Neo asked.

"He stood me up," Olivia shrugged.

"So I was your second choice?" Neo asked, slightly feeling sad.

"Hey, you will never be my second choice," Olivia said seriously, stopping and facing Neo. "You don't have to worry about that. You are my brother and nothing will keep me away from watching you succeed."

"Except the mall," Neo said, sticking his tongue out.

"You buy me designer clothes and you will top the mall," Olivia chuckled as they resumed heading back to campus. They took 2 steps before they were surrounded by Maryters and a mysterious man. Neo and Olivia gasped and got close to each other.

"Capture them!" The man ordered, pointing at the siblings. "They will provide excellent testing specimens."

The Maryters sprang at them and attempted to subdue them. Olivia pushed Neo to the side and taking a hit, sending her to the ground, knocking her unconscious. Neo, seeing that, charged into the Maryters and began to attack. He slide underneath a kick before coming up and delivering an uppercut. He twisted his body, dodging a sword slash but was immediately met with a boot to the face. He dropped to the ground, dazed. He tried to shake it off but found him grappled tightly, staring at the mysterious man.

Now that he can see him, he was donned in a black robe with a hood hiding most of his face. Neo did notice that the man had a scar running along his chin but that was all he could see. The robes didn't offer much information either, other then the fact he was part of the Shadow Order.

"Who are you?" Neo asked, trying break free.

"Who I am doesn't concern you," The man replied. He nodded at the Maryters. They took Olivia and vanished. Neo fought against his captors and managed to break free. He pushed them back before running at the man. The figure sidesteps him and laughs, watching Neo take a spill on the grass. "One thing I do admire about the human race is your resiliency."

"Well then, you will love this even more!" A voice shouted behind the man. Startled, he turned around before being hit by an axe. The man looked up and saw the Rangers.

"Why don't you pick on someone who can offer you a challenge?" The Red Ranger shouted, holding his sword.

"Oh and you can offer me that challenge?" the man sneered.

"Oh I know I can," the red ranger replied, taking up the challenge. The team jumped into the fray putting themselves between the man and Neo. The white ranger turned to Neo. "Get out of here!"

Neo nodded, knowing she was giving him an out so he can morph and join the fight. He took a step forward before being surrounded by Maryters. He groaned and was about to take a fighting stance before Jackson leapt to his side, pushing him away. "This isn't a fight for a civilian. Get to safety!"

Neo again nodded and took off running down the path. He stole a glance behind him, showing that no one was following but he did see that his team needed help. He took a look around him, and seeing no one, he clutched his necklace and shouted "SOLAR POWER!". He quickly morphed into the Yellow Ranger and sprang back towards the fight, unaware that Derek saw everything.

Just as he was about to enter the fight, the man snapped his fingers and disappeared with the Maryters. He reached his teammates and helping them standing up. Nodding to each other, they left the area and regrouped back at the house.

"We'll find her," Kelley said softly, offering her support for Neo.

"Yeah, mate, we will find her," Jackson echoed Kelley's support.

Neo was sitting down, his head bowed. He just finished telling everyone what had happened. Initially, they were pissed that he had missed another training session but realized they had a bigger problem.

"You have to stop missing sessions," Luka bluntly said. He was dressed in his signature black denim jacket over a red t-shirt. He was wearing his black jeans with a brown leather belt with two smaller belts around his right thigh. He had on his black boots.

"You don't think I know that?" Neo replied harshly. He paused before answering, trying to control his anger. "I'm trying to balance everything but I do admit, it's a little challenging."

"That's not an excuse," Luka shot back, sitting down across from Neo. "We are all new at this Ranger business, but we are managing both lives just fine. For whatever reason, you are the only one having trouble with it."

"Luka," Kelley warned him, sitting beside Neo. "This might not be the best time to say anything."

"No, Luka is right," Neo said softly. "I thought I was able to juggle Surfing, my robotics courses and this ranger stuff but it appears I can't.."

"Are you giving up?" Ari asked, leaning against the wall.

"Right now, I'm not sure. The only thing I know for sure is that I need to find my sister," Neo said. He got up and walked to the door.

"Where are you going?" Jackson asked.

"I just need time to think," Neo said, leaving the room. The others looked at each other before they also split for the day.

Neo spent the next couple of days away from the team, just thinking. He sat on the beach, just staring into the horizon, watching ships coming and leave Reevesville. He actually missed his classes for those 2 days. He basically became a ghost to his team, which scared them. After the second day, they began searching for them. Naturally, it was Kelley who found him sitting on the beach. She was about to head to him but paused as she saw Derek approaching Neo. Curious, she watched silently.

Neo looked up at the approaching footsteps. He sighed when he saw it was Derek. "Look man, I'm not in the mood."

"I know," Derek said, sitting beside Neo. "I came to apologize for the way I was acting."

"Oh... ok?" Neo replied hesitantly. He wasn't sure where this was coming from.

"You remind me so much of my little brother," Derek explained, noticing Neo's hesitation."Smart, caring, a great surfer. He died 2 years ago in a surfing accident. He got dragged underneath a wave and couldn't get back up in time."

"I'm sorry to hear that," Neo said sincerely."This explains a lot."

"It may explain a lot but not why I was a bully. Whenever I see you, I see him," Derek said, looking into the distance. A tear was forming in his eyes. "You would have liked him. He was a geek like you. He owned several comic book collections, he was into Star Trek, he played those video games online and from what little I understood, he was one of the best players of his little group."

"Sounds like he was a great guy," Neo replied softly.

"He was. He will never know it, but he was my inspiration," Derek admitted. He took a breath, wiping his eye. "Same with you. You have inspired me in ways I didn't think possible."

"I see," Neo said, disbelievingly.

"I'm serious, though you tell anyone, I will deny it," Derek said with a little chuckle. "And your team is inspired as well."

"My team?" Neo said guardedly.

"I saw you a couple of days ago. I was walking back from the beach when I saw you and Olivia being attacked. I saw that she was taken, and I saw that you are the Yellow Ranger," Derek answered honestly. "I won't say anything but from what little I saw, your team is inspired from you."

"I will never hear the end of this," Neo muttered. He was about to respond when Martyers showed up. Both Neo and Derek jumped up, ready to fight. Neo, however, shoved Derek away. "I appreciate it but this isn't your battle. Get to safety!"

"I agree. Stay safe!" Derek said, running away.

Neo turned around, clenching his necklace and shouted, "SOLAR POWER!"

"You guys wanna dance, lets dance,"Neo taunted them. He leapt at them. He summoned his Saturn Staff and began to swing it around, knocking away the demon looking fiends.

"Need a hand?" Kelley shouted, throwing her twin daggers.

"Would love one, thanks," Neo called back gratefully.

"What about 4 hands?" Luka called out, standing beside Jackson and Ari.

"The more the merrier," Neo called back.

"Does this mean you are staying?" Jackson asked, taking his axe and disintegrating a small group.

"It does," Neo called back, using his staff as spear.

"Good!" Luka replied, his sword slicing through a group.

"Isn't this touching?" The mysterious man was back.

"Whoever you are, you have one chance to return my sister!" Neo threatened him, rushing towards the man.

"Oh and if I don't?" The man challenged back.

"You will have to deal with us all," Kelley vowed, also charging the man.

"Oh I'm shaking in my boots," the man pretended to tremble. He unsheathed his sword and met the twin attacks head on.

"What have you done to her?" Neo asked, using his staff as a spear and jabbing it at him.

"She's fine ... for now," The man laughed, parrying the attacks with ease. He then went on the offensive and blasting both of the rangers off their feet. He began to laugh and started to charge up an attack and pointed it at the downed Rangers.

Energy began to flow through Neo, energy he didn't realize he had. He got to his feet, took his staff, and in an inspiration again, he brought it down. "Saturn Shield!"

He slammed his staff on the ground, creating a forcefield around himself and Kelley, abosrbing the charged up attack. He took that force-field and channelled it through his staff, watching a ball of energy forming at the top. He took that energy ball and blasted it at the man. He grinned in sanctification as the man was thrown back 20 feet. He then feel to his knees, being caught by Kelley.

"I'm alright," Neo said, panting. "Whatever that was took alot of energy out of me."

"Whatever it was, it seems to have worked," Kelley said, pointing ahead. The man and the Maryters retreated. Luka, Jackson and Ari joined up with them.

"I think we should do the same," Jackson said, helping to support Neo.

"What was that?" Neo asked Maria, who just back from an unknown trip.

"That, Neo, was you discovering a new power," Maria answered. "You each have untapped powers."

"Oh sweet," Jackson said with glee. "I can't wait to unlock mine."

"I'm worried," Maria stated. "The original team didn't unlock their powers this early. I do hope you can handle it."

"What do you mean by handle it?" Neo asked, taking a sip of his water.

"After using your new power, how did you feel?" Maria asked.

"I felt weak and tired, like my energy was drained," Neo explained. He put down his water, as he realized what she meant. "Is this new power a curse as well?"

"No. Your new power is a blessing from the morphing grid," Maria answered, sitting down. "But like with morphing. It takes a certain amount of training to properly harness. When you used it today, you expanded alot of energy to cast it. You were lucky that they retreated or else it could have been a different outcome."

"You say it's a blessing but it sounds like a curse to me," Luka stated. He looked at his team. "Just means we have to practise this. Neo, don't use that unless if we need it."

"Oh trust me, I won't be using it anytime soon," Neo said with a weak chuckle.

"Good. We have had a long couple days. Lets take the rest of the day off, but training tomorrow morning!" Luka said.

The others groaned as they went back to their daily lives. Neo looked at the sky above them. "I will find you Olivia. That is a promise!"
