Here is the first chapter in my mass upload! I have the other chapters for my other stories ready and will be publishing them sometime during the day. Hope you guys like this!
Bella walked through the forest on the outskirts of Sol Valley quietly, trying to lay low. She touched a few plants as she walked, making them greener and full of life. She had a content look on her face, feeling very at peace with the world and herself. She felt right at home.
She walked a bit more ahead, slowing down a bit when she came across a small grassy area. She knelt down to touch the dying grass, and almost instantly, the grass began to turn green and luscious, and she smiled to herself.
"Quite impressive," A smooth voice said from the side of her. She looked over to see Ceres perched on a large rock, looking at her with an unreadable expression. "You've been practicing."
Bella stood up straight and walked a bit closer to her. "You're my mother," She said, unnecessarily. "You really are." Bella shook her head in disbelief. "You don't know how long I've been waiting to meet you."
Ceres' expression didn't change. "I figured. How long have you known about this, Isabella?"
"A few years," Bella looked down, as if she was ashamed. "I was on a hike when I discovered my abilities. I didn't know where I got them from until you showed up, though. After you did, I researched you.. and it all made sense. I'm a demigod."
The goddess nodded. "Yes, and soon you will take on a powerful role."
"You keep saying that, but it doesn't make sense," Bella crossed her arms. "Don't I already have a powerful role? I mean, I can control plants and the environment."
"I didn't say you weren't powerful," Ceres commented. "But that doesn't mean that you're in a powerful position. Normal humans don't know about you and us gods don't find you all that special. Soon, you'll take on a powerful position that will change you and your life."
"But, what if I like my life the way it is?" Bella made a face. "What if I don't want the position?"
Ceres regarded her with mild irritation. "Then the world as you know it will cease to exist and perish at the hands of Saturn. You are the true intended server of the yellow ranger powers."
"Wait," Bella paused for a moment, taking in the information. "I'm supposed to be the yellow ranger? How exactly is that gonna work when there already is one?"
Ceres tilted her head up to look at the clear sky. "Marissa will soon face her fate, as will you." The goddess stood from the rock and walked up to Bella. "You will know when it's time. For now, just keep practicing. You'll need it."
Bella frowned, opening her mouth to speak when Ceres disappeared before her. She took a deep breath, before walking back the way she came.

Aiden was thrown back against a car by the latest creature attacking, a succubus. He groaned in pain and sighed in exhaustion. The team had been looking for this creature for a few days, and now, in battle, she was even harder to fight than she was to find.
Succubus had very pale skin, dark eyes, and long dark hair; her body was tall and slender. She had a short, ripped up, white dress on, and a long, thin sword in one hand. She looked more human than most of the monsters they fought, which made it even more surprising at how strong she was against the rangers.
She grabbed Luca by the neck and lifted him into the air, cutting off his air supply as he struggled against her hands. She brought him close to her face and smirked. "You've been a naughty boy," She hissed lowly, her eyes cutting to Mari for a moment, before they focused back on Luca. "You're gonna pay for those mistakes soon enough."
Luca gave her a startled look, surprised she knew anything about that. Before he had time to react, she slammed him down on the ground hard, demorphing him upon impact. She looked down at him as he coughed and tried to regain his breathing, clutching at his chest and neck in pain. She shook her head. "Pathetic." Succubus kicked him off to the side.
Mari got to her feet from her position on the ground and ran over to her. Succubus rolled her eyes at the yellow ranger, who grabbed her by the arms and tried to burn her, her hands glowing yellow. The creature hissed in pain, kicking Mari hard in the knee, forcing her to let go and fall to the ground.
Succubus looked at her ghostly white arms, seeing handprints burned deeply into them. She growled and stomped her foot down on the same knee she had kicked, demorphing the yellow ranger. She held her foot on Mari's knee and looked at her deeply. Succubus grabbed her by the arm and pulled her up, forcing her to look into her eyes as they glowed red.
"Mari!" Aiden yelled, trying to get up to his feet. Succubus put her sword tip to Mari's chin, silently threatening the rangers if they moved.
She turned back to the yellow ranger, and Mari seemed to be in a trance as they stared at each other. Succubus frowned when Mari shook her head a bit and snapped out of it. "You..." She whispered. "You're already broken inside - in more ways than one. You have no confidence.. none at all." She said disgustedly before throwing her off to the side.
Aiden quickly got up and stumbled over to her with his sword in hand but she shook her head as their swords clashed. "I have no interest in you," She ground out.
"What'd you do to Mari?" He asked, pushing his sword to throw her off, to no avail.
Succubus laughed. "Nothing, unfortunately. There was nothing I could do that hadn't already been done." She pushed back, making Aiden stumble back before she slashed her sword across his chest, making him fly back and demorph.
Ryder then pushed himself up, using a car he was next to to help himself get to his feet. He sighed, looking over to October, who was also trying to get to her feet. He pulled out his blaster and shot it at Succubus, who immediately turned her attention to him, crying out in anger.
She ran at him and he jumped out of the way of her sword, which she stabbed straight into the car behind him. His eyes widened at the sight and he pulled out his spear, trying to stab her with it while she was pulling her sword out of the car. Succubus quickly retaliated and clashed her sword with his spear, before reaching her hand around and clasping it around his spear, yanking it from his hands and throwing it to the side.
Succubus shook her head. "The son of Mars.. tough, angry, but so, so dumb," She smirked as she tried to stab him with her sword again, though he narrowly jumped out of the way.
"Oh yeah?" He growled, feeling anger bubble up inside of him. "Try me, bitch."
He pulled out a dagger and tried to distract her by throwing a punch so that he could stab her with it, but she dropped her sword and caught both of his hands, twisting them to the sides. Ryder was forced to drop his weapon and get down to his knees to avoid his bones breaking under the pressure.
When he was on his knees, Succubus took the opportunity to take her own knee and throw it upwards, hitting him hard in the chin and throwing him back, making him demorph before he even hit the ground.
October finally made it to her feet, looking around at her friends, who were all injured and on the ground around them. She growled under breath and ran at Succubus, digging her dagger into her back when she wasn't paying attention.
Succubus roared in pain and turned, immediately grabbing the pink ranger and lifting her off of her feet. She jumped up onto the car next to the them and slammed her down on top of it, breaking the glass windows and denting the metal drastically, causing October to demorph under the force of the blow.
When she demorphed, Succubus saw her face and smiled deviously. "The daughter of Venus, goddess of beauty..." She grabbed her by the face and forced her to look into her eyes as they glowed red again. October resisted for a moment, before she was caught up in a trance like Mari was.
"October!" Ryder yelled, trying to get up but quickly stumbling and falling to the ground again. "Let her go!"
The creature ignored him and smiled when, unlike Mari, October's eyes rolled up in her head and she lost consciousness, like Succubus expected. She swiped her off of the car with ease and smirked at the rangers, before disappearing.
Ryder quickly shoved himself back to his feet and limped over to his sister as fast as he could, falling to the ground next to her hard. He shook her shoulders, but the only thing that happened was her head lolling to the side. "October," He called, tapping her cheek. "Come on, damn it."
"Ryder," Aiden said from behind him. The green ranger turned back to see the red, who was hunched over slightly and had his arm wrapped protectively around his chest. "She's unconscious. We should get her back to the command center."
The younger male was about to nod in response when October stirred and sat up in out of surprise, shocking the other rangers, who were all standing, or kneeling in Ryder's case, around her. "October?" Ryder asked, looking her over worriedly. "Are you alright? How do feel?" He said quickly.
October nodded. "I'm okay. Did she beat us?"
Aiden made a face, finding this question a bit odd. "Well, she didn't beat us. We're still alive and she just left. She'll be back."
"Okay," She said, looking a bit like she wanted to respond to his statement, but not wanting to speak up at the same time. October began to stand up, and Ryder helped her.
He was hovering over her, making sure she didn't stumble or fall. "Are you okay to walk? Do you need my help?"
October looked up at him with a strange expression on her face. "I wanna go home." She said out of the blue. "Can we go home?"
Ryder frowned. "You wanna go home? Don't you wanna checked out to make sure you're alright? I mean, you were just unconscious."
"I feel fine," October told him. "Hey, I'm gonna stop at Walgreen's on the way home. Do we have money for that?"
The green ranger stared at her like she was crazy. "I don't know, I guess it depends on what you wanted to buy," He shook his head, exasperated. "What are you talking about? Are you sure you're alright?"
Her expression turned into one made of guilt. "I'm sorry," She looked down. "I.. I'm not trying to make you angry."
"Hey," Ryder grabbed her by the shoulders, making her look up at him. "I'm not angry. I'm.. worried about you." He said quietly, trying not to let the other rangers in on this moment of his guard being let down. "Are you okay?"
She nodded. "Are you okay?" She asked, noticing the way he was standing, which was as if he was in pain. "You should go to the command center. I'll see you back at home.. if that's alright?"
"Yeah, that's okay, I guess." Ryder said, wondering why she was asking him what do to instead of just doing it. "If you're sure."
"I'm sure," October smiled softly as he let go of her shoulders. "I'll see you at home."
"Okay," Ryder watched her walk off, noticing something was different. When he turned back to the others, he noticed Aiden had a similar expression of concern on his face. Instead of addressing it, he decided instead to change the subject. "Let's get back. Liela's gonna be waiting for us." He said, ignoring the look Aiden gave him.

Jackie and Mercury ended up in Reefside, California, which was about two hours away from Sol Valley. Jackie was mostly reading and researching during the car ride, whereas the messenger god was driving. She looked up when she saw a sign pass by, telling them what town they were in.
"Reefside?" Jackie asked, looking over at Mercury. "What are we doing here? I was unaware of another threat arising in Reefside since Mesogog's defeat."
Mercury kept his eyes on the road. "We're not here for a fight. We're here to retrieve your ranger powers."
Jackie frowned. "My ranger powers?"
"Yes," Mercury nodded once. "Your coin is incomplete. It has the power you need to morph, but it doesn't have the connection you need. We're trying to find Tommy Oliver and get his white ranger power coin."
The demigod raised an eyebrow. "You're going to steal something from Tommy Oliver, one of the most well known power rangers in history?" Mercury nodded, causing Jackie to shake her head. "That is very unwise. With the amount of powers he has.. you'll never be able to get it. He'd destroy you first."
Mercury rolled his eyes. "Most of his powers are dormant."
Jackie made a face. "Not all."
"So what do you suggest we do?" Mercury asked, glaring at her for a moment before focusing back on the road.
She thought for a moment. "Well, from what I have heard, Mr. Oliver is a reasonable man who would do anything to protect the world. Since it is my mission to do so, I believe we should speak to him and inform him of our situation."
"You wanna ask him for it?"
"Yes," Jackie nodded.
Mercury laughed. "No offense, but you have the least amount of social skills of anyone I have ever met. What are you gonna say?"
"That it is my mission to destroy Saturn and that I need the assistance of his coin to do so," She said, as if it was obvious. "I only need the coin to complete this mission."
He frowned. "Wait a minute.. 'it's your mission?'"
Jackie nodded slowly. "Yes. I believe you have been aware of that."
"Jackie, it's not just a mission. It's more than that..." He sighed. "You're saving the world. This isn't just another job or mission or whatever you wanna call it. I mean.. don't you care about and love humanity or the Earth?"
She shrugged. "Love is complex and emotions cloud my judgement. The more focused I am on people, the more distracted I will be when I'm fighting. Logic is the best way to respond to a situation."
"That's wrong," Mercury said, a disappointed look on his face. "If that's the way you think.. then maybe you shouldn't be a ranger. Being a ranger is about caring and protecting people, and becoming a team.. a family, even. I know emotions are complex and I know you being the daughter of Minerva doesn't make it easier to have them, but you can't just shut them off and think only from a logical standpoint. That's how people get hurt."
"You're saying that logic is wrong?"
"No," Mercury gave an exasperated sigh. "I'm saying that too much logic can cloud your judgement just like emotions. You have to use both to succeed. Does that make sense?"
Jackie stared at him. "Well..."
"Okay, let me give you an example. If you had the choice between destroying a monster right then and there, but you would end up killing one or two of the other rangers in the process, would you do it?" Mercury asked, cutting her off.
She blinked. "It is my duty to destroy Saturn. I would not be pleased to do so, but I would do anything to complete my mission."
Mercury shook his head. "Well, if you did that, you wouldn't be able to destroy him. You need the other rangers to do it, and if you let them die.. you can't do it without them."
Jackie looked down, processing the information. "I see." Was all she said after a few moments.
"Besides, don't you want any friends?"
She nodded. "Of course. I love being around people."
"Then how could you think like that?" Mercury asked. "You're not just finishing a mission to destroy Saturn - you're protecting humanity with your life and if you let too much logic cloud your judgement.. then no one's gonna survive this."
Jackie was silent, going back to her research as Mercury continued down the road.

Aiden made his way over to October and Ryder's apartment, going to tell her that Ryder had some last minute things to do at the command center before he got back. He knocked on the door, hearing soft music coming from inside, which he found a bit strange. She usually kept it at a loud level - though made sure she wasn't disturbing her neighbors - it was almost nonexistent.
When she didn't respond, he tried turning the doorknob, surprised to find it unlocked, which he thought was most likely kept open for Ryder. He closed the door behind him and looked around, before following the sound of the music when he didn't find October.
"October?" He called, knocking on her bedroom door, which was closed.
"Coming," October said a bit quietly, coming to the door and opening it, letting him inside, before closing the door behind him. She had her hair up in a towel and had changed clothes, wearing a rather big sweatshirt, long, baggy jeans, and socks covering her feet.
Aiden looked her over. "Is that.. Ryder's jacket?"
"No, not exactly," She picked at the hem of her sweater. "It was my dad's. He gave it to Ryder the day before he died, and he won't wear it because it reminds him too much of what happened. Do you think he'll be mad?" October asked, looking nervous. "I don't want him to get mad. I didn't wear it until after I put the stuff in my hair."
He frowned. "I don't know.. I don't think he'll be mad. Umm.. what stuff did you put in your hair?"
October reached up and pulled her towel off of her head, smiling at his shocked expression. "I went to Walgreen's for some makeup, cause it's closer and cheaper than the mall, and this lady said I'd look good blonde," She replied, running her hand through her hair, which was now dyed blonde.
Aiden raised his eyebrows. "Wait a minute.. you dyed your hair blonde just because some stranger told you it would look good?"
"Maybe," October looked down insecurely. "Do you not like it?"
He made a face. "No, it's fine. I just.. I don't know what to say. Are you alright?"
She nodded. "Yeah, why?"
"No reason," Aiden said, turning to the side and making a skeptical facial expression out of her view. "Just making sure."

Jackie and Mercury sat awkwardly in Tommy Oliver's living room, waiting as he brought them some coffee. Mercury thanked him for it, while Jackie simply nodded her thanks. Tommy sat down in a chair next to them, looking between the two.
"So, what's this about?" He asked, leaning back slightly in his chair.
Mercury looked to Jackie, who set her coffee down on the table in front of them. "We're here to ask about your white ranger coin," She said bluntly, causing Mercury to give her a look.
Tommy tensed slightly. "What are you talking about? Who are you?"
"Forgive her - she's a bit.. lacking in social skills," Mercury said, putting his hand up to gesture for Jackie not to speak. "Look, my name is Mercury, the messenger God of Roman mythology and Jackie is the demigod daughter of Minerva, the Goddess of Wisdom. We're here because she has a power coin that's not fully working, and we need your coin to power it up completely, that's all."
The veteran ranger stared at him for a moment, trying to decipher if he was telling the truth or not. "How do I know you're not lying?"
Jackie unhooked her necklace and handed it over to him. "We're trying to stop Saturn from destroying the world. He wants to ruin all of the Gods' work. The main five rangers are already fighting, and I can't join them without your assistance on this."
Tommy handed her locket back. "I don't know how to feel about this... Handing over my power coin to two people I don't even know? What if I give it to you and you turn out to be working for this Saturn you're talking about?"
"We know it's a hard decision to make," Mercury assured him. "And we know it's very short notice and you have no reason to trust us, but we really need this; or, at least, a decision."
"I..."
Jackie cut him off. "Wait," She said. "Before you make any decisions, allow me to explain. Earlier today, I thought my mission was just to destroy Saturn, no matter what the cost, and it still is, but.. there's more to it. I have to save the people above all, and that's what I want to do. Purely logically, I know I shouldn't let my feelings towards humanity get in my way, but sometimes, too much logic is a bad thing," She glanced at Mercury for a moment. "It clouds my judgement, just like emotions."
Tommy was silent as he listened to her, his gaze turned towards the floor.
"I truly want to save the people," Jackie told him. "And I'm willing to do anything to make that happen, so I'm asking you, please. Please let me do what I need to. Your decision could mean the difference between life and death."
He looked up at her, before nodding. "Alright, I'll do it."

The next day, Mari was leaning against her locker, checking her phone for something when she saw someone come up to her. She looked up from her phone, and sighed when she saw who it was.
"Luca, what are you doing?" She asked, noticing the tight look on his face. "Where's Alice?"
He shrugged. "I don't know, but it doesn't matter. We have to talk about this."
Mari shook her head. "What's there to talk about? It was a stupid, spur of the moment thing that happened because you were emotional and we both got the wrong message."
"But, what if it's not the wrong message?" Luca crossed his arms, watching her look down at his statement. "See, you know what I'm talking about. You can't just play it off like it's nothing. We kissed, Mari."
"It doesn't matter, Luca!" Mari growled out under her breath. "This can't happen. You have a girlfriend that you love and I won't ruin that, okay? So, as far as I'm concerned, nothing happened!"
Luca glared at her. "But something did happen. I don't care if you don't want to admit it because it's true, and you know that, whether you want to admit it or not."
"So, what? You just gonna dump Alice because you got kissed once?" Mari asked, glaring back at him. "You're really gonna throw away all of that time for this? All of the love?"
He frowned. "No, but..."
Mari cut him off. "But nothing. Look, while a lot of what you're saying is true.. it's not gonna happen, so I think it's just easier to forget that anything went down in the first place and let it go. We have to move on." She saw Alice walking over to them. "I have to go. Just remember that you and Alice love each other. Whatever happened was nothing compared to that."
"Okay," He nodded, watching her walk off as he felt a pair of hands slip around him. "Hey, babe," He greeted.
Alice smiled up at him. "Hey," She hugged him tightly. "I'm glad to see you; I've been looking for you most of the day. Where have you been?"
He shrugged. "Just around. Sorry you couldn't find me," Luca forced a smile. "Let's go get lunch." He said, taking her hand and pulling her away from the spot he and Mari had been standing a moment ago. As they walked away, Luca looked back once more, before focusing his attention on his girlfriend.

Meanwhile, Aiden and Ryder were at a team lunch with the other football players to discuss the previous and upcoming games. When it was over, the red ranger pulled the green aside, away from their football teammates.
Ryder frowned. "What's going on?" He asked, wondering why Aiden would want to talk to him. The two still weren't exactly best friends, and hadn't really talked too much individually, so this was unusual.
"I wanna talk about October," Aiden said. "I'm guessing you know about her hair."
"Yeah, I do." He nodded, a disapproving look on his face. "She's insane. I have no idea what's going on with her."
Aiden made a face. "Well, that's what I wanted to say. I think that Succubus did something to her. She's acting like she's insecure and worried about what others think of her, which she never really does."
"You think?" Ryder crossed his arms. "I never even thought about that. She was acting really strange after she got up. I mean, October has never asked me for permission to do something; she doesn't have to." He sighed. "What do you think we should do?"
The red ranger let out a breath. "I'm not sure. There's a good chance we'll have to wait until Succubus comes back to destroy her, but in the meantime, maybe we should talk to October - see if we can knock some sense into her."
Ryder raised an eyebrow. "Do you really think that would work? She's obviously delusional; she dyed her hair blonde an hour after that happened, and all because a lady at the store told her to. I don't know if talking it out would make a difference. Maybe we should just wait until Succubus comes back."
Aiden shook his head, "I don't think that's a good idea."
"Why not?" Ryder frowned. "It's not like she can fight when she's like this, even if we talk to her. If it is a spell, it's too powerful for us to change with words."
"Maybe it's too powerful to change, but what about, at least, making her stop being ridiculous," Aiden pointed out. "She could be doing who knows what all because she's insecure. She wants to change to conform to others. Just think of the things she could do."
Ryder was quiet for a moment, before nodding. "Okay, we'll talk to her after school at the apartment. If worse comes to worse, we could always lock her in there or something while we fight to make sure she doesn't do anything crazy."
"Okay." Aiden said. "Just make sure she doesn't find out about this beforehand."
He nodded. "Don't worry, I got it. Just meet us there."
"Alright," Aiden sighed out. "I just hope we can do something."
"Yeah," Ryder looked down at the ground. "Me too."

Down in Tartarus, Succubus was in a secluded room with a beautiful woman who almost looked to be a Goddess. She had long black hair, navy blue eyes, and pale skin, with a Greco-Roman dress and no shoes on.
"You could've done so much more, you know," The woman said. "I mean, you could've seduced the men and stole the yellow ranger's confidence as well. It would make her a much easier target for my plan."
Succubus nodded. "I understand, Phoebe, but the yellow ranger doesn't have any confidence for me to steal."
Phoebe raised an eyebrow. "Really?" She thought for a moment. "But.. the pink ranger does."
"Oh yes, my liege." Succubus responded. "So much. She's a very confident and strong person - it was almost difficult to get all of it out of her."
"Hmm..." Phoebe smirked. "Well, maybe we should adjust my plans then. Take the pink ranger, rather than the yellow."
"Even better, take the new yellow as well," Succubus pointed out. "The Gods are planning on replacing the current one, so take the new one. It'll be the perfect storm."
Phoebe chuckled. "Oh yes, and quite literally, I might add." She had a smug look on her face. "Go back to Earth and find this new yellow ranger for me. Steal her confidence, and make her an easy target. I'll come for them when the time is right."
"Yes, Phoebe," Succubus nodded once, before exiting the room.

Aiden made his way to October and Ryder's apartment, quickly hearing pounding and yelling as he got to the door. He frowned and let himself in, making his way into October's room, where he found Ryder leaning against the bathroom door, knocking and calling his sister's name.
"Come on out, October," Ryder said. "You can't just sit against that door forever."
"Maybe I will," She said defiantly, but also quietly, like she didn't want to speak up against him.
Aiden made a face. "What the hell is she doing?" He asked, alerting Ryder to his presence. "What did you do?"
"I may have started without you," Ryder admitted. "All I did was ask her what's going on and if she would stop being stupid, and she ran into the bathroom, locked the door, and sat against it."
The red ranger sighed, and opened his mouth to speak, when his locket heated up against his chest. He looked down at it, before looking back up at Ryder, who also had the same reaction. They both also knew that October was aware of it as well. "Go," Aiden told Ryder. "Let me talk to her. I'll get her out, and hopefully be able to meet you guys out there."
Ryder looked like he wanted to protest at first, before nodding. "Alright. Good luck," He muttered, clapping Aiden on the shoulder as he ran past him.
Aiden walked over to the door and sat down on the floor in front of it. "Hey, October," Aiden said, turning his head towards the door. "Can we talk? You don't have to open the door, just listen, okay?"
It was silent for a moment, before she whispered. "Okay,"
"I know you feel lost and insecure and worried about.. well, probably everything. I get that, and it's okay to feel that way, but you can't let it control your life - not like this."
October scoffed, "How do you know how I feel?"
Aiden looked down at the ground. "Because I feel the same way a lot. I worry that I'm not good enough daily, on everything from taking a stupid test to defeating Saturn to.. being with you. I..." He took a deep breath. "I don't think I'm good enough for you, all the time." He chuckled humorlessly, "You know, everyone says that guys aren't supposed to feel this way, and that makes it even worse."
"Why?" She asked, turning the door knob and opening the door, standing above him until he stood with her. "Why would you feel like you're not good enough for me? You're amazing. I worry about me not being good enough for you."
He raised an eyebrow. "Really? That's stupid - you're the best, most beautiful person I've ever met." Aiden reached a hand to touch her cheek lightly. "I love you." He said, which is something neither of the two had gotten around to saying before now.
"You..." October trailed off, looking up at him in shock. "You love me?"
"Yes, with all of my being. I love you."
October nearly launched herself at Aiden, burying herself in his chest and almost making him stumble from the force of the hug. He held her tightly. "I love you too," She whispered.
Aiden was about to speak, when he felt his locket heat up again, and he knew October felt her's as well. She pulled away and looked up at him, a bit nervous, but seemingly alright. "Are you okay to come?"
She took a deep breath, and nodded. "Yeah. Let's go."

Mari cried out in pain as she was slammed into the ground once again by Succubus, demorphing upon impact. Succubus picked her up and shook her head, before throwing her at Luca and Ryder, who were already demorphed and on the ground.
Succubus shook her head. "Wow. Who would've thought that you three would be so easy." On the ground nearby, somewhat hidden by a car, was Bella's unconscious form. Succubus looked over at her. "She wasn't too hard either. I would've stole her confidence like the pink ranger's, but you three just had to get in my way."
"And it's gonna stay that way!" Aiden yelled as he and October ran over, blasting at her.
The creature smirked when she saw October. "So, you mustered up enough strength to come back for round two, huh? Well, this time, I won't just take your confidence - I'll take your life with it."
"Try me," October pulled out her sword, clenching her fist around it's hilt firmly.
The two forces were about to attack, when a blast came at Succubus from behind and hit her in back, making her stumble forward and roar in pain and anger. Succubus turned around, and the rangers all directed their attention to someone walking down the street.
Aiden and October pulled the three injured rangers to their feet and stood slightly in front of them as they all watched this person come towards them through a cloud of smoke that was emitting from a nearby crashed car.
The person - a young woman - came out of the smoke, completely morphed in a ranger suit, though it was one that was different from the other rangers'. It was a white suit with a large black and gold shield over her chest. She had a golden belt and a short, white skirt similar to October and Mari's suits. She had gold shoulder pads and gold, black, and white gloves and boots. Her helmet was also white and gold.
"White Guardian!" She called out.
Next time on Power Rangers Guardians of the Galaxy: Jackie reveals herself as the white ranger and meets the rangers. Meanwhile, Phoebe puts her plan into action.
Next Chapter Title: White Ranger
So, since Jackie has Tommy's white ranger key, she has the same suit as he did, just in a female version with the skirt. I only did this because of the series I'm 'adapting' from, and I'm sorry if anyone doesn't like that - I don't mean to do anything that would upset any fans by giving one of my characters his suit.
Anyways, this is the first chapter I'm posting as a part of my birthday mass update, so expect chapters for my other stories as well sometime during the day! Since I'm updating all of them today, that does mean that the next chapter I'll be posting after today will be for this story, so keep an eye out!
Oh, and here are the upcoming chapters!
