Disclaimer: Of course I obviously do not own Power Rangers. Power Rangers belongs to Haim Saban and Nickelodeon. However I do claim ownership of the Element Force powers, zords, and weapons, as well as the Omega Hub and all original characters.
Power Rangers Element Force

Chapter 3:
Prehistoric Takeover
Last time on Power Rangers:
In a beam of white light, though more fluid looking than Alpha's and Lerigot's teleportation streak, Billy appeared clothed in Aquitian garb.
"Welcome to the Omega Hub, the new base of operations for the power rangers," Billy said, a broad grin on his face.
Gold sparkles flashed once in unison, lighting up the Power Chamber before disappearing. The fortress lay in ruins once more. The rubble flashed again before reforming into the large hollow tower on a flat stone surface, a final monument to the old base of command for Zordon.
"Zordon!" cried out Billy and Justin in unison.
"Element Fusion! Red Ignis Element Power!" he cried out as he was engulfed in red and white light.
Justin appeared to be standing on fire. A giant flame came rushing towards him from behind and consumed his body. The flames enveloped him and formed the suit: a red jump suit with white gloves, boots and belt. The pattern across the chest looked like blazing flames. Little gold medallions on the boots and gloves appeared, the symbol for fire embossed on them. The belt buckle appeared in a flash of light, gold with the same fire symbol. Another flame consumed Justin's head, forming the helmet, red with a black visor in the shape of the fire symbol as well.
"You are now the Power Rangers Element Force. Go now, and may the Power protect you."
Miles away from the calm tranquility of Angel Grove, above the sky scrapers, through the clouds and the atmosphere, all the way to the cold rock suspended in orbit around Earth, a shadow passed over the lunar surface. It passed over a few times before finally hovering over one spot. The source of the shadow, a large space ship, landed just yards away from the former palace of the former Emperor of Evil. The Moon Palace loomed ominously over the space ship as three beings stepped out of it.
"We have arrived, my Queen," said the first being. "Our previous analysis was correct. This was indeed the Moon Palace of Lord Zedd and his wife, Rita Repulsa. Though I am afraid that because of the Eltarian's sacrifice, any evil that once resonated off of the very walls is now no more."
"No matter, my power will grow and feed off of the power that lingers here and corrupt it," said the Queen, leading the trio towards the palace.
"Queen Titanica, allow me to escort you into your palace. From there you can create Neo Pangaea," said the third being, offering his arm to Queen Titanica.
"Why of course, my husband. Do escort me, King Gigantus. Open the door for us, Stegma."
Stegma immediately stepped ahead of the King and Queen to open the main door. He stepped aside and allowed the two the first entry into the palace. As the three walked along the passages, Titanica began to chant. Within seconds, the palace itself started to transform. Gone were the metallic gratings and the steel grey stone walls. Replacing it were polished granite tile floors and roughly hewn stone walls. Where there had never been, computer consoles appeared in the throne room, transported off the ship. As the trio entered the throne room the "Z" on Zedd's old throne twisted and warped into a "D". Torches then burst aflame, brightening the room and revealing the appearance of the three creatures. Queen Titanica was sitting on the throne. She had long, wavy, black hair, decked with a silver tiara. She was a smaller, stronger, more intelligent, more evolved, giganotosaurus. She has evolved into a half dinosaur, half human creature. Her husband sat beside her in a new throne. King Gigantus was larger than Titanica. He had strong muscular arms and no hair, though his head was topped with a silver crown. Other than that he looked exactly like Titanica. Stegma was the smallest, with the appearance of a humanoid stegosaurus.
"Stegma, use the Monster-matic in the next room to make an army of Raptors, I doubt we will need to send in the real ones. When you are finished, send them to Earth to find fossils. As many fossils as we can find," said Titanica.
"My Queen, our sensors indicate that there is a large concentration of Dinotopian fossils at the Angel Grove Archaeological Museum," replied Stegma.
"Yes, Angel Grove, a perfect place to start my empire on Earth. We will take over where those two bumbling idiots, Zedd and Rita left off. We'll get the job done, and the Master will be pleased," said Titanica, a malevolent grin spreading across her reptilian face.
Stegma bowed himself out of the throne room and walked into Finster's chamber. He took some of the magic clay and molded it into a Raptor. He hardened it and then made a mold from it. He made many clay Raptors and sent them through the machine. In a few seconds, the machine spat out over a dozen Raptors.
Titanica looked over Stegma's work in satisfaction. "Yes, perfect. Now my drones, retrieve your ancestor's bones! Yhahahahahahaha!"
Teleporting down in crackly grey light, the clay Raptors touched down outside of the museum. They stormed into the museum and in a matter of minutes they had all of the fossils in cases.
Back at the Omega Hub, alarms were going off all over the place.
"Aye yai yai yai yai! Zordon, there is an attack at the Archaeological Museum," shrieked Alpha, panicky as ever.
"Alert the rangers," said the wise sage calmly.
"Right away, Zordon," replied the panicked robot as he pressed a button on a console.
While chaos was being wreaked across town, the rangers were enjoying what was the calm of the Surf Spot. Justin and Derek were sparring with each other in one corner, Alec was doing homework at the bar, Selena was stretching, getting ready to practice for her upcoming gymnastics competition, and Krista was in the locker room changing clothes as she had just got in from softball practice. When she finished freshening up, Krista walked over to Alex at the bar.
"How's it going Alec?"
"Oh hey Krista, I'm doing fine. How was practice?" he asked.
"Can I get you anything to drink?" asked Adelle from the other side of the bar.
"Sure Adelle, can I get a strawberry and mango smoothie, low fat yogurt please," answered Krista.
"No problem shoog" said the older woman as she turned away to make the drink.
"Anyway, practice was good, Coach Hill worked us pretty hard though," said Krista, answering Alec's question.
"It will pay off in the end though. When's your next game?"
"Tomorrow at 4:00 actually. We're playing Stone Canyon High."
"I'll be sure to take a break from this paper to come and watch."
"Great, the support is really appreciated," said Krista with a smile.
"Hey Krista, how was practice?" asked Selena as she walked over.
"Good, I was just telling Alec about the game tomorrow," she answered.
"Good luck to ya, Krista," said Adelle, as she gave Krista her smoothie.
"Thanks, Adelle," Krista said as she paid Adelle for the drink.
"Anything from the Hub?" asked Selena after Adelle had walked away to tend to another customer.
"Nothing yet. Billy did say it might be a few more days before this new evil arrived," answered Alec, looking up from his paper again.
Walking over to the group, from the mats, Justin and Derek both looked like they had had a good work out. "Pheww. That was a nice sp-" Justin started but was interrupted by the beeping of Justin's Element Caller. Justin pointed to a wall and grabbed his stuff real quick. The others did the same and followed him to the wall. Pulling his Element Caller from his bag he tapped the speakerphone icon on the screen.
"Go for Justin."
"Justin you and the other rangers need to get to the Angel Grove Archaeological Museum. It's urgent."
"Thanks, Alpha, we're on our way," said Justin.
He looked around to make sure no one was looking and when the coast was clear he nodded to the others. All 5 pressed the teleportation icon on the screens of their Element Callers and were teleported away to the Museum. They saw the Raptors and ducked behind a wall.
"Ready?" Justin asked in a low voice.
"Ready," was the answer from the other four.
All five pulled their Element Callers out and shouted in unison, "Element Fusion!"
"Red Ignis Element Power!" Justin cried out as he was engulfed in red and white light. He appeared to be standing on fire. A giant flame came rushing towards him from behind and consumed his body. The flames enveloped him and formed the suit: a red jump suit with white gloves, boots and belt. The pattern across the chest looked like blazing flames. Little gold medallions on the boots and gloves appeared, the symbol for fire embossed on them. The belt buckle appeared in a flash of light, gold with the same fire symbol. Another flame consumed Justin's head, forming the helmet, red with a black visor in the shape of the fire symbol as well.
"Blue Aqua Element Power!" Derek cried out as he was engulfed in blue and white light. He appeared to be standing on water. A wave came crashing towards him from behind and crashed over his body. The water enveloped him and formed the suit: a blue jump suit with white gloves, boots and belt. The pattern across the chest looked like crashing waves. Little gold medallions on the boots and gloves appeared, the symbol for water embossed on them. The belt buckle appeared in a flash of light, gold with the same water symbol. Another wave crashed over Derek's head, forming the helmet, blue with a black visor in the shape of the water symbol as well.
"Green Terra Element Power!" Alec cried out as he was engulfed in green and white light. He appeared to be standing in an open, grassy, field with one tree full of green leaves behind him. The earth began to shake and the leaves fell over Alec. The leaves completely covered him and formed his suit: a green jump suit with white gloves, boots, and belt. The pattern across the chest looked like a grassy plain. Little gold medallions on the boots and gloves appeared, the symbol for earth embossed on them. The belt buckle appeared in a flash of light, gold with the same earth symbol. Another leaf consumed Derek's head, forming the helmet, green with a black visor in the shape of the earth symbol as well.
"Yellow Ventus Element Power!" Selena cried out as she was engulfed in yellow and white light. She appeared to be standing in mid-air. The wind starts blowing really hard behind her, blowing a giant cloud towards her. The cloud enveloped her and form the suit: a yellow jump suit and skirt with white gloves, boots, and belt. The pattern across the chest looked like a puffy white cloud. Little gold medallions on the boots and gloves appeared, the symbol for wind embossed on them. The belt buckle appeared in a flash of light, gold with the same wind symbol. Another cloud consumed Selena's head, forming the helmet, yellow with a black visor in the shape of the wind symbol as well.
"Pink Spiritus Element Power!" Krista cried out as she was engulfed in pink and white light. She appeared to be standing in a pink void with sparkling lavender wisps swirling around. The lavender wisps start to swirl faster and wrap around her, forming the suit: a pink jump suit and skirt with white gloves, boots, and belt. The pattern across the chest was a lavender colored wisp. Little gold medallions on the boots and gloves appeared, the symbol for soul embossed on them. The belt buckle appeared in a flash of light, gold with the same soul symbol. Another cloud consumed Selena's head, forming the helmet, pink with a black visor in the shape of the soul symbol as well.
The five morphed rangers ran around the wall they were behind and into the museum.
"Where'd they go?" asked Justin.
"I don't see anything," said Alec.
"Me neither," replied Selena.
The rangers walked down the hall to the Dinosaur exhibit where they saw about half of the Raptors teleport away with crates filled with fossils.
"No! We're too late," exclaimed Justin.
"That's not good," said Derek as another group of Raptors teleported with more crates.
"We need to stop them from taking the rest," said Krista.
"There's ten of them and only five of us," said Selena.
Derek looked to Selena and nodded. "Yeah, but we can take them. We're the Power Rangers!"
"Right. Let's split up. We'll each take a pair of Raptors and regroup if necessary," directed Justin.
The other four affirmed Justin with a united "Right!" The five split up and tried to separate the Raptors from the crates. Justin side kicked a Raptor into a crate, causing it to burst into clay. Derek round housed another Raptor, knocking it into another, making both explode into clay.
"These things are awfully weak," said Derek.
"You're right, they must not have been expecting a welcome committee," remarked Justin.
Alec was standing their calmly as two Raptors came towards him. When they were right in front of him, he summoned his Element Saber, and spun as they came towards him, slicing the two Raptors in half. All four halves melted into clay.
"That was kinda fun," he said, grinning behind his helmet.
Krista and Selena teamed up and were fighting off the last four Raptors. Krista and Selena held each other's hands and began to turn in a circle, each one balanced by the other. The two rangers started spinning faster and faster until they were a yellow and pink blur. The disk that was formed spun into the four Raptors and totally demolished them. Selena and Krista then released their grips and flipped back over to the other three.
"That was awesome!" exclaimed Justin to the two ladies.
"Yeah, kinda dizzy though. Not really sure where that came from," said Selena.
"Maybe it comes with the powers," Krista suggested.
"Maybe so. It looks like we might have our own individual powers over our element, and then a group power. That could come in handy. We need to get back to the Omega Hub though," said Justin.
And with that, the five teleported away from the museum.
Back at the Dino Palace on the moon, Titanica was fuming.
"You said there were no Power Rangers!" she screamed.
"My Queen, our spectral analysis and Raptor scouters showed that there were no active Power Ranger groups in Angel Grove. This team must have formed within the past few days," replied Stegma, cowering slightly.
"Well the important thing is that we have retrieved three-quarters of the Dinotopian fossils that were at the Angel Grove Archaeological Museum," said King Gigantus, trying to diffuse the situation.
"If it is any consolation, my Lord and Lady, I do have a Tyranitron ready for you to reanimate, my Queen.
"Well, it does help. Thank you, Stegma," replied Titanica. She snapped her fingers and scepter appeared in her hand. It was made out of a T-Rex tooth and had a large jagged cut diamond adorning the top of it. She pointed it towards the T-Rex skeleton that Stegma had presented to her. "Gli alcoolici diabolici del sin e della disputa, portano a questo Dinotopian la nuova vita. Riporti il dino che รจ perito qui. Viva ancora e riappaia!"
The skeleton of the T-Rex began to glow as muscle tissue and organs appeared. Veins started growing and cartilage reconnected the bones. Blood started pumping through the veins and finally a thick reptilian skin covered the Tyrannosaurus Rex before another flash of light engulfed it. When the light dissipated, the dinosaur was standing erect on two legs, now distinctly more humanoid in appearance and was wearing armor.
"Tyranitron, go to Angel Grove and attack as soon as you are ready!" cried out Titanica.
"Yes my Queen," he replied, and bowing his head, he teleported out.
Tyranitron immediately teleported down to Angel Grove. He took a large blaster from his side and began firing at buildings.
"Come out little Rangers, it's time to meet your maker!" he taunted as he continued his rampage through the streets.
"Rangers, analysis of the Raptors showed that they were made out of the same super putty clay that Rita used for her Super Putties. Clearly the Dinotopians were not expecting a resistance. But now that they know we're here they're sure to amp things up," said Billy to the assembled rangers. As if on cue, the alarms started going off.
"Aye yai yai yai yai! Tyranitron is attacking the city," exclaimed the frantic android.
"Behold the viewing globe," said Zordon. The group backed away from the center of the room as lights started shining from three spots, forming a holographic three-dimensional image. The image showed Tyranitron making his way down Broad Street. "Where are you rangers?" the dinosaur warrior taunted.
"Alright guys, let's get to it," said Justin, raising his helmet above his head. "Back to action!"
In a rainbow flash, the five rangers teleported out.
Rematerializing behind Tyranitron, Justin called out, "Looking for something?"
"As a matter of fact, I am!"
"Well, maybe we can help," said Selena, taking a defensive pose.
Tyranitron whipped around to face the rangers. "No need, I've already found it," he replied, aiming his blaster and firing at Krista. Using her gymnast skills, she nimbly leapt into the air and dodged the attack and returned one back with her Element blaster. The laser blast just deflected off of Tyranitron's amor.
"Alpha, do we have any power weapons?" asked Justin.
"They were just completed, Justin," came the robot's voice through the helmet speakers. "Call for them using your Element callers."
"Copy that," said Justin. "Alright guys. Let's show this fossil what we can do." He pulled his morpher from his side and flipped it open. "Elemental Ignis Sword!" he called out and a double-edged silver sword with a gold hilt adorned with a ruby in the pommel appeared in his hand.
"Elemental Aqua Trident!" called out Derek and a blue and silver trident with a blue sapphire embedded in the cross-section appeared in his hands.
"Elemental Terra Shaker!" called out Alex and a large green hammer with an emerald in the end of the handle appeared in his hands.
"Elemental Ventus Twister!" called out Selena and a yellow fan with three silver blades adorned with a yellow citrine appeared in her hand.
"Elemental Spiritus Bow!" called out Krista and a pink and silver bow adorned with two pink topazes at the ends of the bow appeared in her hand.
"These are great Alpha, thanks," said Justin.
"Rangers, your power weapons will help you in manipulating your individual element," came Billy's voice through their helmets.
"Let's do it guys," said Justin.
"Right, time to set his soul afire," said Krista, aiming her bow at Tyranitron. A pink arrow materialized and releasing the laser string, she fired at the monster. Tyranitron merely deflected it with his shield though. The arrow ricocheted and hit a civilian running for cover. But instead of running, the person turned around and started cheering on the Rangers. "Whoops, let's take it down a notch."
Then Selena stepped up with her fan. "My turn." She pulled the trigger and a yellow whirlwind started whipping around Tyranitron and caught him in its vortex. When she released the trigger the whirlwind stopped and Tyranitron fell.
"Let's shake him up," said Alec. He raised his hammer up and pressed a button on it. As the handle extended he brought the whole hammer crashing down a foot from Tyranitron's face. Green energy crackled through the ground as Tyranitron was blasted up into the sky.
"Time to play with fire," said Justin, his sword suddenly blazing with a red fire. "Fire slash," he cried out. He sliced his flaming sword through the air, sending a fire ball towards Tyranitron as he was falling from Alec's attack.
"I think he's ready for a cool down," said Derek. He raised his trident up and slammed the end into the ground, causing a huge wave to rise up behind him. He swung the trident over his head behind him and the wave was sucked into the trident. Swinging the trident forward and at Tyranitron, three beams of high intensity blue energy shot out at Tyranitron.
Despite the combined efforts, Tyranitron still stood. He charged up his blaster and blasted all of the rangers. They fell down, but quickly got back to their feet and regrouped.
"Time to bring them together," said Justin.
Selena held up her Ventus Twister and Krista laid her Spiritus Bow across the top of the pistol grip. The handle of Alec's Terra Shaker shrunk down into the mallet which then split in half. He placed the two halves on top of the bow. The handle of Derek's Aqua Trident then shrunk down, leaving only the tip, which split in half along the middle prong. The two halves then attached to the ends of the bow. Finally, Justin placed his Ignis Sword on top.
"Element Cannon Fire!" they all cried out. A beam of red, blue, green, yellow, and pink shot out of the Element Cannon and hit Tyranitron. The dinosaur warrior exploded into a pile of bones. Justin pointed his Element Caller at the bones and they reassembled into a T-Rex skeleton and teleported to their proper place in the Museum.
"Great job guys, let's head back to the Hub," said Justin. With that, all five teleported away.
"Impossible! How were those rangers able to defeat my creature? Of course, it wasn't my creature. Stegma! Do not fail me again!" yelled Titanica, furious at the defeat.
"Well done rangers on your first mission. You all did an extraordinary job in acclimating to the powers," said Zordon once the rangers had arrived.
"Yes, I'm sure that Earth will be safe now. But I must return to Lyaria so that I can return here with Yara and Batel," said Lerigot.
"You are always welcome here, my friend," said Alpha, walking over to hug the Wizard. Raising his golden key, Lerigot teleported away in a shower of gold sparks.
"These powers are really amazing. The computer still hasn't finished analyzing them yet," said Billy.
Justin looked up to the plasma tube and asked, "Zordon, do you know who is in charge of these things?"
Zordon's head nodded within the plasma tube. "Yes, they are the Dinotopians. Over two-hundred million years ago, a force of Dinotopians arrived on Earth from Dinotopia. They established a colony on what was then Pangea. My ancestors knew the importance the Earth would play in the never ending struggle against evil as a battleground, a safe haven, and even a prison. As you know Justin, the Island of Mirantheses in the Nemesis Triangle, is located on Earth. There are countless other locations, both good and evil, on this planet that most humans do not know about because the locations are protected. The Elders of Eltar, as they were called, waited to see what the Dinotopians would do. Over the course of 165 million years they gathered intelligence. Their intentions seemed honest at first, but as time progressed, seven Dinotopians grew disheartened at what was taking place and risked their lives to bring the Elders information. At this point I had been inducted as an Elder of Eltar and had been assigned with the protection of the Milky Way Galaxy. The seven Dinotopians pledged their allegiance to me, believing that I and my fellow Elders would be able to stop the Dinotopian plan for Universal Domination. The Elders, in order to prevent the pending invasion, redirected an asteroid sixty-five million years ago and had it collide with Earth. Those that chose to left the planet and returned to Dinotopia. Those that remained were unable to survive. All that remains of their occupation is their fossils. Now it seems that the Dinotopian leader has come back to Earth to take back what could have been theirs. It is imperative that they do not succeed.
"Woah," was all that Selena could say.
Krista looked up to the plasma tube. "We'll do whatever it takes to stop them."
"The Dinotopians will not succeed," said Selena.
"Affirmative," said Alec.
"We won't let you down," piped in Derek.
"You can count on us Zordon," said Justin at last.
"It is good to see such loyalty, Rangers. With your bonds of friendship, you will succeed," said Zordon.
The End
Next time on Power Rangers:
"Billy, what is the status of the Zords?" asked Zordon, appearing in his plasma tube.
"Construction is complete on the Zords themselves. The bios is now uploading to the onboard computer systems," said Billy.
"I believe it's time to bring in Brachion," she said after a few minutes of silence.
"My Queen, are you sure? Our history books show that Brachion nearly destroyed this planet before your own great grandfather destroyed him," said Stegma.
"Do not question my judgment, Stegma. I will merely put a restrictor on his power levels," said Titanica.
"Looks like you should see a doctor about that neck problem, first," said Justin.
"It was old sixty-five million years ago, and it is still old now, human," said Brachion. He lifted one of his legs and stomped the ground. The seismic wave produced knocked the rangers down.
Raising his bone sword Brachion slashed the Super Zeo Megazord across the chest. Billy's voice came over the speakers.
"Guys get out of their before the Megazord explodes!" came Billy's voice from a speaker inside the cockpit.
