Disclaimer: I don't own Power Rangers Hasbro does. I just own the OCs in this story

Authors Note: Hey everyone, here is the next chapter. Now, for the most part, this chapter is the same from its original version, but I had added in a flashback sequence in here that wasn't there originally to which probably should have been as well as one other thing and that'll be explained at the end of the chapter. So, this chapter has a little bit from the first episode of From Out of Nowhere Pt. 1 and the rest is all I added from scratch with a small hint to episode 3 of In Space, Saving Our Ship. Also, you will end up finding out who the Phantom Ranger really is in this chapter too.(At least for this story anyway.). Now, I am not going to say who right now, but I will explain a bit on it at the Author's Note at the end. Also, before I forget, yes, I'll be doing that gathering meeting of the forces of evil but it won't be until the next chapter. So, with that said, just read the Author's note at the end for more on that as well as a feel other things. Now without further ado here is chapter two of the lost series for your reading pleasure.

The Lost Story, Adventures In Space

Chapter Two: Boarding the Astro Megaship

It's been quite a few hours since the four remaining Rangers, their robot assistant Alpha 6, and I had left Earth heading for the planet called Eltar to try and rescue their old mentor Zordon.

'I guess I should have realized that Justin had me go with them as his replacement. Mostly likely so that he can stay close to his father. To which I can fully understand.' I thought to myself

I then dig out a coin from my pocket and looked at it. It is a coin that once belong to my father that I had found in his belongings after what happen to him, mom, and my sister. It had a Gorilla's face on it and was gold in color.

'I just wish I knew what this coin was for.' I thought to myself

I then put it away as I then stare back out the window looking out in the vast emptiness of space. Suddenly, I then feel a hand placed on my shoulder and see that it is Ashley.

"Hey, how you doing Paul?" Ashley wondered as she sat down next to me

"I'm fine, I just never thought I be doing anything like this." I mentioned

"Yeah, I hear yeah. I had those feelings myself when I first became a Power Ranger." Ashley admitted

I just nodded as I turned back out to look out the window.

"So, how long have you known Justin?" Ashley inquired

"Only a few weeks I had just recently moved to Angel Grove." I told her

"Hey guys, come and check this out." Cassie called out

We get up and walk over the window on the other side of the ship as we all just stare at a black hole.

"Wow." I muttered

"It's so beautiful." Ashley mentioned

"Sure is." Carlos agreed

TJ then walked over towards Alpha.

"Alpha, how long till we reach Eltar?" TJ questioned as he sat down next to him

"At the current speed we're going, we should be there in about four hours." Alpha informed us

Suddenly, we then feel the shuttle shake.

"Whoa, what was that?" Ashley questioned

I then see something in the distance that looks like a ship.

"Hey TJ, you might want to take a look at this." I called over

TJ and Alpha then came over and looked out the window.

"It's a ship." Carlos stated

"And we are heading straight for it." Cassie mentioned

TJ then went over to the intercom and pushed a button hoping to get in touch with the ship.

"This is the NASADA Space Shuttle from Earth, move away we are on a collision course." TJ said into the Intercom

"Hey." Cassie called out

TJ then turned back towards us.

"It's opening up." Cassie pointed out

TJ comes back over and we then see the front nose hatch open up.

"It's pulling us in." Ashley stated

"But how is doing it?" Cassie wondered

"I have a feeling we are about to find out soon enough." I mentioned

Our ship is then pulled into the bigger ship to which turned us around. The ship then shook as we felt it dock in place as the big hatch door then closed around the shuttle securing us in Place. We then opened the door to our Shuttle and we find ourselves in the hallway of the big ship.

"Whoa." I muttered

TJ then motioned us to follow him and we do so having a looked around and see if we can find any passengers or crewmembers on board as well. As we walked the hallways, we then hear footsteps approaching us. TJ held up his hand in front us motioning us to stop as the four Rangers took ready positions as did I. Suddenly, we then see someone in black armor with what appeared to be a Red Ruby attached to the chest walk up towards us. I then see the others relax a bit as they all got confused but assured looks on their faces.

"Billy?" TJ inquired

"Phantom Ranger, Power Down." Billy called out

Suddenly, he powered down to reveal a man that is around Jason's and Kimberly's age and someone I barely remember from a time when I had visited Angel Grove prior to me moving here. But what is odd is that he is wearing an alien like uniform.

"It's been awhile guys, we had a feeling that we be seeing you here." Billy greeted

Billy then turned towards me and gets a shock look.

"Paul Golupski, is that you?" Billy inquired

"Yeah it is, I thought I recognize you Billy." I stated as I went over to him

We then shook hands.

"Hey, how do you know Billy Paul?" Cassie inquired

I turn towards her and the others.

"Well, he is on old friend of my cousin and her boyfriend." I stated

"We can talk about all this later, but there really isn't a lot of time at the moment we need to move to the bridge." Billy told us

We all look at each other and shrugged and followed Billy. A few moments later, we arrived at what appears to be the bridge and the sign outside did say the name anyway to confirm my suspicion. We have a look around and I happen to notice something very similar to Alpha.

"Hey guys, look over there." I mentioned pointed out

They look towards where I was pointing towards and they see what I see.

"Whoa isn't that Alpha 5?" Carlos wondered

The robot in questioned turned around and spotted us.

"Oh, Ayi, yi, yi, yi, Rangers I'm so glad to see you are all okay." Alpha 5 cried out

He then looked around.

"Where's Justin?" Alpha 5 wondered

"He stayed behind on Earth wanting to stay closer to his dad so he had me come in his place." I stated

Alpha 5 comes over to me and looks at me.

"You look kind of familiar to me, what's your name?" Alpha 5 inquired

I look at Alpha 5 weird for a moment.

"I'm Paul Golupski." I informed him

"Oh, Ayi- yi, yi, yi, now I remember you, you're Frank Golupski's son aren't you?" Alpha 5 questioned

I look at him in shock.

'How does he know my dad?' I thought to myself

"Wait, how do you know my dad?" I questioned

"I'm interested in knowing that as well fivy." Alpha 6 stated

"It, may be best if we show them the video Alpha 5." Billy mentioned

"Video, what video?" I inquired

"It's a video that was made by Zordon himself in emergencies like this one." A female computerized voice stated

"Whoa, who said that?" Carlos questioned

"It was I, DECA, on board computer." DECA greeted

"Whoa, cool." I muttered

"Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that. DECA has eyes and ears on the entire Astro Megaship. She was put in by Zordon himself when him, Alpha, and myself began working on this ship." Billy explained

"Now, that's pretty nifty." Cassie mentioned

"Billy, about this video you guys mentioned. What is it anyway?" TJ questioned

"Just watch the main screen everyone and you will see." Alpha 5 told us as he pushed a few buttons

We do so as we then see some kind of blue head appear in the screen.

"Greetings, I am Zordon of the Planet Eltar, if you are viewing this then something must have happen to me. In this video, I will reveal the history of one of my very first Earth Power Ranger." Zordon stated in the video

"Earth's first Ranger, who could it have been?" Ashley inquired

"His name was Frank Golupski and he was the Earth's original Gold Mighty Morphin Thunder Ranger." Zordon stated in the video

"Wait, my dad was a Power Ranger? How?" I questioned

"Just pay attention Paul and you will find out." Alpha 5 told me

"Frank was chosen to do battle against the evil Rita Repulsa and her minions when she was accidently freed from her imprisonment many, many years ago." Zordon said in the video

The video then went to play various fight footage of my dad's battles.

'This is all too strange for me. I would have never thought in a million years that my dad was in fact a super hero.' I thought to myself

"After about two years of battling her, he was able to seal her away once more and send the dumpster into deep space. At that point, Frank retired from being a Ranger but had kept his Power Coin and Power Morpher in case of emergencies if he ever had to protect his new family which by this time consisted of a wife, a step daughter, and a son of his own. He also knew that one day, if the Earth needed the use of the Gold Mighty Morphin Thunder Ranger again, that he was confident that his son would take up the powers if needed." Zordon said in the video

"So, that's what those things were." I muttered as I scratch my chin

"What you mean Paul?" TJ inquired

"Shhh, it's starting again." Ashley shushed him

"But I fear that if something has indeed happen to me and you are watching this. Then, I believe they would be useless until an alternate Morphing Grid is formed to power up the powers once more. Frank had also thought of this as well and the both of us along with my trusted assistant Alpha 5, a space director from Earth, Commander Norquist from the NASADA Space Port, and along with Frank's little sister that also works there Gina Hart we had begun working on a secret project. Project Astro." Zordon said in the video

Alpha 5 had then paused it at that point.

"Project Astro?" Ashley wondered

"And what does Kimberly's mother and Commander Norquist from NASADA Space Port have in common with the whole Ranger thing? Besides them working together?" Billy questioned

"Billy, your question will be answered shortly, but I think it be wise if we fill the others in on Project Astro." Alpha 5 suggested

"Yeah, that's probably the wise choice of action Alpha 5." Billy stated

Alpha 5 nodded before turning back towards the rest of us.

"Project Astro, was created as an emergency backup plan had something ever happen to Zordon. Since Zordon, has been captured, and Eltar pretty much all but deserted as any survivors from there had left into hiding." Alpha 5 explained

Alpha 5 then looked more towards TJ, Cassie, Carlos, and Ashley.

"And seeing the shape you four are in as I can only assume that Justin is in the same shape as well, my guess is that the Turbo powers had been destroyed?" Alpha 5 inquired

"Yeah, we're not sure if it has something to do with the Power Chamber exploding or of the captured of Zordon with the fall of Eltar." Carlos stated

"We can look into that later, but for now. We must begin Project Astro right away." Alpha 5 told us as he walked over towards a metal brief case

We all looked at him as he grabs it and walks back over towards us standing next to Billy as Billy takes it from him. He then opens it up.

"These, are the Astro Morphers." Billy informed us revealing to us thirteen wrist like devices that are shape like something from a Star Wars or Star Track movies

'Or both." I thought to myself

Each one was next to a colored label. Red, Blue, Black, Yellow, Pink, Green, Gold, Purple, Orange, Aqua Blue, Ruby Red, Grey, and White.

"You'll use these to become Space Rangers." Billy explained

"Space Rangers?" Ashley wondered

Billy and Alpha 5 nodded. Suddenly, I then suddenly see the Astro Morpher that was labeled Red started to glow.

"Hey Billy, Alpha 5. The Red Morpher appears to be glowing." I pointed out

Billy, Alpha 5, along with the others looked on as well.

"Hmm, that's odd. I wonder why it is doing that?" Billy inquired

Suddenly, the Red Astro Morpher then lifts up from the case and floats in the air before it then flies over towards me and begins hovering right in front of me.

"Whoa, check that out." Cassie stated

"The Red Astro Morpher is floating in front of Paul." Ashley mentioned

"So, that's what Frank and Zordon did with that Morpher." Alpha 5 stated

"What are you talking about Alpha 5? What did my dad and Zordon do to make this Morpher to hover in front of me?" I questioned

"Well, my guess is that they had encoded that Morpher with your DNA. Meaning that if you are within the room with the Morpher for the first time, it would react this way." Alpha 5 told me

I look at him confused as I then turned back towards the floating Astro Morpher and then take it in my hands and looked at it. I see a red latch in the center and flip it towards me as it then opens up the center part to reveal a numbering pad. But instead of the pound and star sign buttons being between the '0' button like on a phone, it has two different ones. On the left side of the '0' button, there is a button with the symbol of a sound wave, and on the right side of the '0' button, there is a button with the letter 'E' on it with the enter key symbol right next to it. I then look up the latch and see some few instructions with certain key functions doing a few different things. I happen to see the one that has a Ranger helmet next to it.

'335.' I thought to myself

"So, I take it in order for me to Morph. I just push '335' and then enter?" I inquired

"That's correct, but you also call out 'Let's Rockit' in order to activate your Morpher." Alpha 5 explained

"But, I'm still confused as to why my dad would have the Red Morpher be encoded with my DNA and have me become the Red Ranger." I admitted

"Perhaps there is more to Zordon's message in the video." Ashley suggested

"Good idea. We might learn more of Project Astro too." TJ agreed

Alpha 5 nodded as he pushed a button to begin continuing to play the message.

"To those that are watching this, the Red Astro Morpher was encoded with someone's DNA as he was hand selected to become not only the newest Red Ranger, but the new leader of the team. Frank's son, Paul Golupski, while Paul may not have been a Ranger prior to this video being made and most likely have not seen any action, both Frank and myself have complete faith that he will guide his team to victory and restore peace and justice to the entire universe. Also, one other thing I must address to whomever is seeing this. I have a daughter named Karone as well as a son I was made unaware of until recently. My daughter was once a Power Ranger herself protecting Eltar from the forces of evil as the White Turbo Ranger. But about two years ago, she had suddenly disappeared without a trace. I can only hope that she is all right, as well as my unknown son is okay. I ask that while you are busy protecting not only the Earth, but the entire universe that you will find them both inform them that I love them greatly and had hoped that I could see my daughter one last time and my son for the first time. The fate of the universe is in your hands Space Rangers. Always know that power will always be with you, and will protect you." Zordon said in the video

Suddenly, the screen went blank as it then just shows us the outside of deep space.

"And, that's all there is to the message." Alpha 5 informed us

"Wait, Zordon had children?" Carlos questioned

"Yeah, that's news to me too as I had never heard of her before or of him having a son. He must have found out about it after I had left Eltar." Billy mentioned

"Yes, you are right Billy. Shortly after you had left Eltar to return to Earth to help the Turbo and Zeo Rangers with finally taking down the leader of the Machine Empire, King Mondo he had found out about it. He chose not to say anything to you as he wasn't for sure on all the details but was prepared to tell you before Eltar had fallen under attack." Alpha 5 explained

Billy nodded understanding why Zordon decided to keep this from him or from his old friends when they were once Rangers themselves.

"Have you had any luck in finding either his daughter Karone or even his unknown son yet?" Ashley inquired

"Afraid not, though we were close in figuring out who had last seen Karone when Eltar was attacked." Alpha 5 stated

We just nodded.

"Guys, I'm curious, there are thirteen Morphers in total and there are only five of us. Who is going to get the other eight?" Carlos inquired

"As of the moment, there will only be five Rangers. As time goes on, more Rangers will join the team." Billy explained

I close the lid hatch on the Morpher and just stare at it.

'Am I truly ready to become a Power Ranger like my father was once before me? And can I truly live up to not only his legacy, but Kimberly's and other former Rangers as well?' I thought to myself

I suddenly feel a hand on my shoulder and turn around to see that it was Alpha 5.

"Paul, I think I know what you are thinking, as does the others in this room and the Rangers before them." Alpha 5 stated

"You do?" I wondered

"Yes, you are wondering if you are able to even live up to your father's legacy or even that of your cousin's and the Rangers before you, right?" Alpha 5 inquired

"Yes, that's right." I confirmed

"Trust me when I say this Paul, I know you can do this, and so does your new teammates. Your father knows you can do this too, that's why he knew that this Morpher was best suited for you. He knew you be up to the challenge." Alpha 5 told me

"He did?" I questioned

"Yes, and I know full well that he would be the first to tell you to try and not follow in his footsteps step by step. He would want you to create your own legacy." Alpha 5 explained

I just look at him for a few moments before turning towards my now Ranger teammates and they just smile and nodded. I then feel another hand on my shoulder and turn around to see that it was Billy.

"And trust me when I say this as one of the original Earth Rangers, you can do this and we believe in your ability to lead the team as the team of Rangers to not only protect Earth, but the entire universe from the forces of evil." Billy stated

I take a few moments to let it all sink in before smiling and nodded. I then strap the Astro Morpher onto my left wrist.

"Let's get to work." I stated

Billy smiled and nodded as he then walked over towards TJ, Cassie, Carlos, and Ashley with the remaining Astro Morphers.

"TJ, you are now going to be known as the Blue Ranger." Billy informed him

TJ nodded as he then takes the Blue Astro Morpher from the case and looks at it as Billy then walked over towards Carlos.

"Carlos, you are now going to be known as the Black Ranger." Billy informed him

Carlos nodded as he then takes the Black Astro Morpher from the case and looks at it himself as Billy then walks over to both Ashley and Cassie.

"Ashley and Cassie, you two also well have a change of colors. Cassie, you are now going to be known as the Yellow Ranger while Ashley, you will now be known as the Pink Ranger." Billy informed them both

Both Ashley and Cassie looked at each other before turning towards Billy and nodded as they then reach for their respective colored Astro Morpher. Cassie grabbing the Yellow Astro Morpher while Ashley grabs the Pink Astro Morpher. Billy nodded as he closes the case and walks away as the four of them then strap on their Astro Morphers as well. I then go and stand next to them as well as we then turn towards Billy, Alpha 5, and Alpha 6.

"So, what do we do first?" I questioned

"First, you guys will need to change into your new Space uniforms that you'll all be wearing while on this ship and when we visit other planets. You'll find them in your separate quarters." Billy informed them

"Come with me Rangers, I'll show you each to your separate quarters." Alpha 5 told us

We all nodded as we then followed Alpha 5 over towards what appears to be an elevator as we all walked in as Alpha 5 pushes a few buttons before the doors shuts with us inside of it.

Normal POV

As the elevator doors shut, Billy then turns towards Alpha 6.

"Alpha 6, I see that you are holding the Black Box." Billy mentioned

"Yes, luckily, it survived the Power Chamber explosion." Alpha 6 stated

"Yeah, that's for sure. I need you to begin working on it with DECA. Alpha 5 and I are going to help the new team of Rangers in learning their new powers." Billy explained

"Yo, you got it Billy." Alpha 6 stated as he then walks over towards one of the side computers

"DECA, in thirty minutes. I want you to summon the Space Rangers to the Simulation Deck. And set a course for the Cimmerian Planet at Hyper Rush nine." Billy instructed

"Affirmative Billy. Setting course for the Cimmerian Planet and initiating Hyper Rush Nine." DECA confirmed

Billy nodded as he then walks out of the bridge to head to the Simulation Deck.

Meanwhile a bit later inside Paul's Quarters

After Alpha 5 had dropped me off to my Quarters which was on what was called Mega Deck Six, I had walked in and seen a bunk bed with a Space Uniform on it. I had walked over there and had since changed clothes into my new Space Uniform. It consisted of grey pants, black boots and a grey jacket that had a planet on it with a picture of a planet with a red wring surrounding it on the right side of the jacket and with five colored squares, Blue, Pink, Red, Yellow, and Black on them on the left side of the jacket as well as a picture below that of what looks like a small pyramid in Red. It also came with a Red Under armor type long-sleeved shirt as I am wearing it under the jacket. After having restrap the Astro Morpher on left wrist I then look around and get a better look of my quarters. Other then the bunk bed, it also had a desk, a lamp, shieling lights, and even came equip with a mini bathroom with a toilet and shower stall. I look around thinking that if I am going to have to live up on this ship for undisclosed amount of time, I may need to bring a few of my things here to make this room feel a bit more like home.

'Man, Kimberly is surly going to flip out when her mom tells her that I ended up going into space.' I thought to myself

I then looked out the window into deep space and just think back to when I had first met Justin a few weeks back.

FLASHBACK TWO WEEKS AGO INSIDE ANGEL GROVE HIGH SCHOOL

Paul's POV

After having finished with my placement test, I had walked out of the Resource office as I was heading for Aunt Gina's car. I just slowly take my time in walking with my hands in my pockets just thinking back to what lead me to coming here in the first place.

'This is just so different. New town, new state, new school, new everything. I just hope that I can fit in here.' I thought to myself

I must have been so deep in my own thoughts that I had not realize it until it was too late as I then accidently bump into someone as I stagger a bit sideways.

"Oh man, I'm so sorry. I wasn't paying attention as to where I was going." I apologized

I then turned around and was shock to see that it was a kid my own age just sitting on the ground.

"No worries, I wasn't paying attention myself." He admitted

I then offer my hand to him as he accepts it as I then help him stand up. I quickly look around to see if he had dropped anything but doesn't appear to be anything laying on the ground.

"Are you okay?" I inquired

"Yeah, I'll be fine. It was nothing." He assured me

He then held his hand out for me to shake.

"I'm Justin Stewart by the way." Justin introduced himself

I gladly accept it as the two of us then shook hands.

"I'm Paul Golupski." I introduced myself as well

"It's nice to meet you Paul." Justin stated

"Same here Justin." I agreed

The two of us then lets go of the other's hand.

"Are you new around here Paul?" Justin inquired

"Yeah, I just moved to Angel Grove the other day. I had to come and take a placement test as they wanted to see what grade I fit in here in Angel Grove." I explained

"Well, welcome. You'll find that Angel Grove is a nice place to live." Justin mentioned

I just looked at him kind of funny.

"You mean, aside from all the reported monster attacks, right?" I questioned

Justin just chuckled at hearing that.

"Yeah, besides that. But, with the Power Rangers protecting us, there isn't anything to really worry about." Justin stated

I just nodded as I then realize something.

"Hey, so why are you here in the first place Justin? Shouldn't you be like in middle school or junior high as they refer to it here?" I wondered

Justin just chuckled a bit.

"Actually, as surprising as it sounds, I am in high school." Justin revealed

I just stare at him in shock.

"Really?" I questioned

"Yep." Justin confirmed

"Wow, that's cool." I stated

"You think so?" Justin wondered

"Yeah, I mean. You get to hang out with teenagers all the time." I pointed out

"Yeah, it is. It's actually nice having some friends that know how to drive." Justin mentioned

"I bet it is." I stated

"Say, do you want to come with me to the Youth Center and hang out with me and my friends?" Justin inquired

I just looked at him.

"The Youth Center?" I questioned

"Oh, it's a real cool place to hang out at here in Angel Grove." Justin told me

I just nodded as I then kind of remember hearing about it from Kimberly and Jason.

"Thanks for the offer Justin, but I'm afraid I can't. I got to much stuff happening right now that I am not going to be able to today." I explained

"Oh well, that's okay. I understand." Justin assured me

I then dig into my pocket and dig out a piece of paper that had my aunt's address.

"Here, this is where I live. I do have some free time this weekend if you want to come over and hang out." I offered

Justin then takes it.

"Cool, I'll get a hold of you then and see if we can make something happen." Justin stated

"All right, sounds good Justin." I told him

The two of us then shook hands once more.

"It was nice meeting you Justin." I told him

"Same here Paul." Justin told me

END FLASHBACK

'I wonder if I'll ever see him again?' I thought to myself

"Paul, your presence is requested on the Simulation Deck on Mega Deck Three." DECA informed me

I snapped out of my trance and looked up towards what appears to be DECA's face on the wall.

'Man, that is going to take some getting used to.' I thought to myself

"All right, thanks DECA." I thanked

I then sighed before walking out of my Quarters making sure the door shuts behind me before walking off. I then walked over towards the nearest Elevator lift and walk in as I look over the buttons to spot button labeled '3'. After spotting it, I then go to push it.

"Hey, hold the elevator." A female voice called out

I stop from pushing it to look up and see Ashley running into the elevator.

"Thanks Paul." Ashley thanked as she puts her hands on her hips catching her breath

"No problem Ashley." I assured

I then push the number '3' button as the door shuts as the elevator starts to hum as we feel it going down. I happen to take a quick glance towards Ashley and see that other than the Pink under armor shirt, and pink trim and pink pyramid picture, was practically the same from mine. But what has my eyes still locked onto her is how she looks in it. How they tightly fit and show off her body perfectly.

'Man, if only I was a few years older, I would maybe have a chance at asking her out, if she isn't already seeing someone that is.' I thought to myself

She happens to look over towards me just smiling. I quickly get my mind to snap back into reality and smile back as I turn back towards facing the elevator doors.

'Though, maybe age doesn't matter to her as there is really only a few years difference between us. At least, I think anyway.' I thought to myself

Suddenly, the elevator stops moving as the doors then slide open. The two of us exit out of the elevator and look in both directions.

"So, any idea as to where this Simulation Deck is?" Ashley inquired

"The Simulation Deck is five doors down the left on the right hand side." DECA informed us

"Well, I guess that answers your question Ashley." I told her

She nodded as the two of us turned to the left and walked down about five doors and found an open door and walked inside to see that TJ, Cassie, and Carlos were inside there along with Billy and Alpha 5.

"Good, you guys made it." Alpha 5 told us

"So, this is called the Simulation Deck." I mentioned looking around

It was really just an empty room with a machine off to the side towards the entrance and exit of the room.

"Yes, but for the most part, it is referred to as the Simi Deck for sort." Alpha 5 stated

"Makes sense." TJ mentioned

"Okay Rangers, you are in what is known as the Simulation Deck. Here, you can program just about any kind simulation you want come to life in this very room from where that mark on the floor starts." Billy explained

We looked towards where Billy was looking at to find that it was not that big of space in itself.

'Now, that would be impressive.' I thought to myself

"So, which Simulation are we doing first?" Carlos inquired

"You five are going to Morph and then I will be putting you guys into a fighting training simulation. From there, you will learn to use and learn about your new weapons to defeat your enemies." Billy told us

The five of us nodded as we then walked over the center of the simulation platform. I looked towards TJ, Cassie, Carlos, and Ashley and they nodded their heads. I nodded too before turning back forward and took a deep breath.

"LET'S ROCKIT!" I yelled out

We each them open up our Morphers.

"3.3.5." A computerized voice called out

We then pushed the enter button as it then beeps at us. Suddenly, the five of us are Morphed into Power Rangers, me becoming the Red Ranger, TJ the Blue Ranger, Carlos the Black Ranger, Cassie the Yellow Ranger, and Ashley the Pink Ranger.

"Whoa, cool Blue and the Power Rangers are back." TJ stated

"Yeah, I feel totally reenergized." Ashley stated

"Me too." Cassie agreed

"Well, I think we're ready to try out the training simulation." Carlos mentioned

I nodded in agreement as I then turned towards Billy and Alpha 5.

"Okay guys, we're ready." I confirmed

"All right then." Billy stated

He then looked towards Alpha 5.

"Alpha 5." Billy mentioned

"You got it Billy. Activating the Craterite Training Simulation now." Alpha 5 confirmed pushing a few buttons

Suddenly, the area surrounding the five of us turned to a grid like area with green lines going up and down and right and left with black filling out the inner parts of those lines.

"Whoa, talk about being put into the matrix." I commented

"Yeah, no kidding." Ashley agreed

"Hey guys look over there." TJ pointed out

We all turned towards where TJ was pointing at to see a bunch of purple like creatures that was covered head to toe purple with a mask like thing covering their eyes that was gold.

"I'm guessing those are the Craterites." Cassie stated

"All right Rangers, let's take them." I instructed

They all nodded in agreement.

"Red." I called out as I got into a fighting stance

"Blue." TJ called out getting into a fighting stance

"Yellow." Cassie called out getting into a fighting stance

"Pink." Ashley called out getting into a fighting stance

"Black." Carlos called out getting into a fighting stance

The Carterites then charged in towards us.

"Let's do it." We all called out

We all then charge in to as we then begin fighting the Carterites. I take on a group of Carterites myself and find myself a bit out numbered.

"Man, these guys sure are tough." I muttered

Suddenly, I then see an image of a saber with the blade shape like a spiral drill appear in the inside of my visor.

'That must be my own personal weapon.' I thought to myself

The image then disappears.

"Spiral Saber." I called out

Suddenly, the Spiral Saber appeared in my hands.

"Whoa, now this is cool." I stated

I then begin striking down the Carterites around me one by one.

"I can defiantly get use to this." I commented

Normal POV

TJ takes a Carterite down by kicking it into another nearby Caterite.

"All right, time for me to try out my new weapon." TJ stated

Suddenly, an image of an axe appeared through his visor for a second before disappeared.

"All right, Astro Axe." TJ called out

Suddenly, TJ's Astro Axe appeared in his hand.

"All right, you computerized reject's check this move out." TJ informed them

TJ then outstretched his arm with the Astro Axe in it as he then begins spinning around and strikes down on several Carterites before he stopped spinning around.

"Whoa, this new Astro Axe is amazing." TJ commented

TJ then blocked an attack before going to fight off another set of Carterites. Over with Carlos he takes down a couple of Carterites.

"My turn." Carlos muttered as he then sees an image of a what appears to be a staff with what appears to be a beetle's horn on the top

Carlos then grabs a Carterite by the arm before sending it to the ground.

"Lunar Lance, now." Carlos called out

Suddenly, Carlos's Lunar Lance appeared in his hands as he then swings it around and manages to knock down every last person near him.

"All right, I'm loving this new Lunar Lance." Carlos commented

Cassie and Ashley had teamed up to take on a group of Carterites as they are then forced to come to each other back to back. They then suddenly see an image through their visors of there own personal weapons. Cassie's was shape like a sling shot while Ashley's was shape in that of a satellite listening device.

"Star Slinger." Cassie called out

"Satellite Stunner." Ashley called out

Suddenly, their respective weapons appeared in their hands.

"Fire." The girls commanded

They then fired their weapons at a few of them as they are all then sent to the ground.

"Whoa, these things are amazing." Cassie mentioned

"Yeah they are." Ashley agreed

Paul's POV

After having taking down some more Carterites, we all had regroup together.

"Rangers, try out your Astro Blasters." Billy called out

"Right Billy." I confirmed

I then make my Spiral Saber disappear as the others make their weapons disappear as well.

"Astro Blasters." We called out as we drew them out

We then take aim at them.

"Ready Rangers?" I questioned

"Ready." The rest confirmed

"Fire." I commanded

We then fire our Astro Blasters at them taking them all down.

"All right, I think that's all of them." I confirmed as we then place our Astro Blasters back into their holsters on our right side

Normal POV

"They really did will Billy." Alpha 5 commented

"Yes Alpha 5, they have. But, this was only a training simulation. They'll have to be ready to fight off the real thing." Billy mentioned

"Yes, but TJ, Cassie, Carlos, and Ashley have fought together before so they know what is at stake." Alpha 5 stated

"Yes, but this the first time they are fighting with Paul who is also now their leader. But, with their experience, I am sure that not only will they help Paul become a great Ranger, I am also sure that TJ will help him become a great leader too." Billy mentioned

"You're right Billy." Alpha 5 agreed

"End Carterite Training Simulation." Billy called out

Alpha 5 nodded as he pushed the end button.

Paul's POV

Suddenly, we then see the matrix like room disappear as we are then return to the room on the ship. We all then walk over towards Billy and Alpha 5 as we took off our helmets as I then end up returning to my normal height.

"So, what you guys think of the Simi Deck?" Billy inquired

"Man, that was awesome." TJ commented

"What a cool way to stay sharp." Ashley mentioned

"Yeah, wish we had something like this back on Earth in the Power Chamber." Carlos stated

"Well, before it had been destroyed by Divatox that is." Cassie pointed out

"Well, I think we're ready to take on the forces of evil and rescue Zordon." I stated

Billy and Alpha 5 just nodded.

"Attention, we have now reached the System location of the Cimmerian Planet." DECA informed us

"Thanks DECA." Billy thanked

"The Cimmerian Planet?" I inquired

"Hey, that's where that Messenger guy had told Divatox to meet the Grand Monarch of Evil?" Carlos wondered

"Yes, it is. Alpha 5 and I had a figure Dark Spector had taken Zordon there." Billy mentioned

"Then we got to go there and rescue him." Cassie stated

"No, only Paul and I will go." Billy pointed out

"Wait, only you and Paul?" Ashley questioned

"But Billy, that be even more of a suicide mission." Alpha 5 pointed out

"Yeah, Alpha 5 is right man. We all should go." TJ stated

"No, if we all go, surely they will pick us out easily. If just Paul and I go, we stand a better chance at being there undetected and learning everything we can about Dark Spector's current plan of action." Billy explained

"Guys look, I may be new to all this but Billy is right. We should go with his plan. Billy has the most experience out of all of here right now." I pointed out

"Paul's right guys. Billy does have the most experience out of all of us here currently. We should go with his plan." Ashley stated

"Yeah, I agree too." Carlos agreed

"Okay then, you two head for the Cimmerian Planet, the rest of us will remain here for your return." TJ informed us

"Thanks for understanding guys." Billy thanked

Billy then turned towards me.

"You ready to go Paul?" Billy questioned

"Yeah." I confirmed

"Then let's go." Billy told me

Billy and I then walked out of the Simi Deck.

Normal POV

TJ, Cassie, Carlos, Ashley, and Alpha 5 just watch on as Paul and Billy walked out of the Simi Deck.

"Good luck Rangers." Alpha 5 called out

TJ, Cassie, Carlos, and Ashley just look on wondering if Billy's plan will workout.

AN: Well, there is the second chapter to this story. Hope you all enjoyed this chapter. Now, to answer a few questions I'm sure you guys have, there is still a bunch of part one of From Out of Nowhere I still need to do as this was only meant to show them board the Megaship and gain their powers and learn how to use them and their weapons. The next chapter will be the rest of the From Out of Nowhere Pt. 1 and the following chapter will be all of From Out of Nowhere Pt. 2. Now, I am sure all of you are wondering how not only Billy is the Phantom Ranger but how TJ, Cassie, Carlos, and Ashley knew of him and about that team up with the Zeo Rangers taking on the Machine Empire? Well, to answer it simply, I am planning on a two part prequel story that takes place during Turbo and will feature a teamup between the Zeo Rangers and second team of Turbo Rangers. That will probably be out either late in the year or sometime next year. Also, as you all might have notice, I have added in a few more Space powers and that was something I had decided to add in recently. But any rate, I'll have the next chapter out sometime tomorrow. So, until next time, please R&R.
