In the city of Angel Grove, a city prone to monster attacks from various enemies of the free people of earth, a new team of Power Rangers assembled. The man who assembled the team went by the name of Andy but he was once a fighter for truth and justice just like those that he would come to train. He had three morphers to hand out to people who could utilise them to defend both the city and the planet from any potential enemy. He had short brown hair and seemed to move rather stiffly but otherwise was the picture of perfect health.
Like the wise sage of Eltar before him this man assembled teens with attitude to aid him. He chose teens that embodied the spirit of the Power Rangers. He would spend weeks studding the local populous undetected. 3 Teens stood out to embody the attributes of courage , truth and selflessness though there were many people who would have made great rangers these three were the best.
The first of the rangers to join the team, Keenan would become the Black Dragon Ranger. Andy did not need to try and convince Keenan to join the team; he had always wanted to be a Power Ranger. Growing up in Angel Grove he had seen many incarnations of the rangers and while he was once scared of the various monsters and robots that attacked the city he now wanted to protect those that without the means to protect themselves.
Kai would be the second of the rangers to join becoming the Green Deer Ranger. He wasn't impressed with the violent ways of the previous rangers. He didn't like the idea of killing or destroying the evil monsters but instead rehabilitation them. It took Andy many days to convince Kai that he could change the destructive ways if he were the one to accept the title, Andy would not normally dedicate more than a week to convince someone that becoming a ranger was the right decision for the but Kai had this quality about him, a sort of innate sense of good and evil that mentor thought was invaluable to the team he was constructing. Before accepting the mantle he worked full time as a landscaper and gardener.
Hannah would join last; the only woman of the team would become the Pink Dolphin Ranger. She had always wanted to make a difference in the world. She campaigned vigorously for various charities, organising events such as runs and dinners. But despite all her work she felt as if she wasn't doing enough, the chance to become a Black Dragon Team member was the chance she had been waiting for accepting the powers without even a second thought on the day that Andy had mysteriously appeared and offered them to her.
The three chosen rangers met for the first time in a chamber hidden somewhere beneath the city. There was no obvious entrance or exit to this chamber as all the walls were lined with glass tubes, both empty and encasing a strange flowing energy of various different colours. Multiple curved control panels created an inner circle with only a few breaks in the near continuous circle. Lights flashed and the occasional beeping sound could be heard amongst the introductions. The mentor offered the teens one last chance to turn back before they would need to battle the evils that frequent the planet. None of them accepting.
Andy would hand over the three morphers to their respective team members. Each one was essentially identical except for the stylised centre. They were wrist mounted devices circular in appearance coloured the same as the ranger they would allow the user to morph into. The teens would be able to activate these devices either by voice or my pressing down on the morpher. Suddenly all the energy tubes that hung on the walls of the chamber flashed red.
"Are you ready?" Andy asked, the first challenge of the Black Dragon Team had arrived, a monster terrorising the citizens of Angel Grove. This monster was a horrible creature but would likely be able to be stopped by the local law enforcement, a perfect chance for the new rangers to test their skills. The trio nodded silently in agreement.
The gruesome creature stood in front of the trio of novice rangers. Dozens of people ran past, some screaming in fear, others just running as fast as they could. Dead bodies had already begun to litter the park. The monster was nearly completely black , only little accents of silver appeared throughout his body and over its face. A large stylised silver Z appears on his chest with silver lines flowing out from it over the remainder of his body. The creature didn't say a word before firing a flurry of energy attacks at the rangers.
"Black Dragon Team!" the trio screamed as their civilian forms were covered in an aura of black light transforming them into their ranger forms. The energy burst from the transformation destroyed the oncoming energy attacks. Though the team had no formal they took to the battle like veterans. Keenan was the first to fight proactively rather than reactively like the rest of his team mates. He charged towards the creature striking the stylised Z on its chest with his curved blade. Sparks flew from the creature's body but he did not seem to be phased by the attack as he immediately slammed the Black Dragon Ranger against the ground.
The creature would have struck Keenan down if it were not for the intervention of Kai and Hannah's blast from their side arms stunning the creature long enough for Keenan to get up. As he stumbled to his feet he was able to fire off another shot from his side arm. The creature fired several more blasts into the group of rangers but each blast was countered and dispersed by a blast from each of the three ranger's blasters. The Black Dragon charged forward this time blasting as he ran straight into the monsters stomach. Slashing continuously into the monster until it was knocked down to the ground. He was defeated, unconscious he was no threat. The Black Dragon Team watched over his body as the SPD took the monster into custody.
