Marty VO: "Previously on Power Rangers GPX SIU!"

Sean: (To Hitomi) "She looks pretty good."

Sean: "I was told you know a few things about Native American magic."

Dr. Naughton: "So you're a Power Ranger. I guess Maelstrom's pet project succeeded after all."

Bridget: "LISTEN UP! We're going to get out of here. But you have to do as I say!"

(Cut to shots of the Rangers fighting the Mannequins and helping bystanders escape. Bridget tries to get away, but a Mannequin bites the base of her neck)

Sean: "PLEASE HANG ON!"

Drake: "You can help make this world a better place under our guidance."

Sean: "Go fuck yourself."

Power Rangers GPX SIU, episode 12: The Bloodletter

:-:-:-: Pooow-er Ran-gers, Grand Prix, G-P-X, GO! :-:-:-:

He figured security would be tight here. The Ouroboros Society's conflict with the Rangers had made them cautious about the potential of enemy attack. He heard they'd already dealt with someone who infiltrated the society. Apparently their enemy had excellent resources to deal with them. And yet, he heard they were still one step ahead of their enemy. The Society is better than he thought.

The acolytes and members looked shocked at his presence. He always liked that. He did not look threatening, but his reputation always preceded him. Either they knew he was coming or this was the first time they'd seen him. He could hear them talking amongst themselves. Now when did he do that? A smile on his face meant he enjoyed hearing their rumors.

"Where is Drake?" he asked a guard he walked up to. The guard pointed down the hall. He nodded, walking away. He swore he heard the guard drop to the floor and blessing himself.

He found where Drake was. This should be good. A pair of knocks and, "Come in!" He opened the door and smiled at the look on Drake's face. "I was unaware you were coming," he said.

"I wanted to drop in," he said.

"Did you scare the acolytes?" asked Drake. "Given your reputation, Sirius the Bloodletter, I would have to say yes."

"My sincerest apologies," said Sirius. He brushed back his long black hair and sat down on the chair in front of Drake's desk. He looked at Drake witch his green eyes.

"To be honest, I was wondering when you would come, I just did not expect you to come unannounced," said Drake. "What is it that you want, Sirius?"

"I understand you're having trouble with a children's TV show," said Sirius. He smiled when he head Drake subtly pound the desk.

"What are you saying?" asked Drake, "We are having no problems at all. Our plan is falling into place one piece at a time. They will not stop us."

"And yet, you keep losing to them!" Sirius said with a laugh. "And you could have killed the Red Ranger's sister."

"Neville ordered that, not me," said Drake. "I had him punished for his transgressions. Because of that, our battle with the Rangers is personal and they will not surrender without a fight."

"And yet, you could have ended this conflict a long time ago," said Sirius.

"The situation has changed," said Drake. "The Rangers hold a power that may be what we need for the Reckoning Day. Our top researchers are working on it right now."

"Oh, so you've thought ahead, haven't you?" asked Sirius. "Do you need them alive or dead?"

"It does not matter," said Drake. "We need their powers. If they die, so be it. If they live, we will only lure them to their fate."

"I like this already," said Sirius. "Why don't I help you out?"

Drake raised an eyebrow. "You believe you can defeat the Rangers," he said.

"Of course!" said Sirius. "They're just kids wearing silly colored spandex! What are they going to do? Dazzle me?"

"Do not underestimate them," said Drake. "They are very persistent. They will not be defeated easily."

Sirius laughed, causing Drake to give him a bad look. "I'll change that."

:-:-:-: PRGPX :-:-:-:

Aaron was following Sean, wondering why they'd just left campus. Sean was walking with urgency, going down Mill Street. Neither of them said anything. Sean didn't look like he was in the mood to talk, anyway. There were times when Aaron tried to keep up with Sean, only for him to fall behind. A couple times he tried to open his mouth but the awkwardness of the situation forced him to keep it shut.

He knew Sean was still worried about his sister. For all he knew, she was dying.

"Slow down!" he called out. Sean ignored him. "I said slow down!" Sean only glanced behind him. Aaron was getting frustrated. "She'll still be there! Why are you so angry?"

It was a bad thing to say. Sean stopped and turned around. His eyes were wide, but filled with anger. Aaron stopped, shrinking under Sean's enraged stare. "I'm sorry," he said. Sean didn't say anything. He turned around and started walking again.

Ever since Bridget was bitten by a Mannequin, the Rangers had fallen on hard times. Perhaps none of them were more impacted by this like Sean and Rob. And both of them had good reasons to do so. Sean is her brother and Rob is her husband. Two of the most important men in her life except her father were Power Rangers. For Sean, it meant even more. He'd been talking about how he'd failed to save her and the guilt caused him to nearly binge on beer before he realized what he'd done.

Aaron's suspicions were confirmed when he saw the hospital starting to come into view. To their knowledge, she hadn't been moved so there was a good chance she was still there. Again, Sean sped up his walk while Aaron tried to keep up as much as he could. "Hurry the hell up, Zulu!" he said. That's a nickname he hadn't heard in a while!

Aaron decided to tune out for a while until they got to the hospital. He just followed Sean into the building. "I need to know how my sister's doing," he heard him say. He didn't hear anything else, just Sean and the receptionist talking. The receptionist directed him to Bridget's ICU room.

She looked like she was doing well, considering her situation. She was still in bed, hooked up to several machines. She was also patched up on the base of her neck, which looked like it might have been a deep bite. The droning 'beep… beep… beep… beep… beep' was the only sound in the room, save for Sean's footsteps. Aaron noted this was the most scared he'd ever seen the Red Ranger.

At this point, Aaron is only watching and perspective will shift back to Sean (if just for the moment). "Bridge?" he asked.

She looked at him and smiled widely. "Hi," she said weakly. Sean pulled up a chair and said down. "I'll be fine. How's everyone doing?"

"They're doing okay," said Sean. His voice was flat but he sounded like he was about to break.

"I'll be out of here soon," she said. "Tell mom, dad and Julie I'll be okay."

"How do you know?" asked Sean.

"The doctor," she said. "I just need to rest and they've got me on antibiotics. And they've been saying a few things about that thing that bit me."

"Sounds great," said Sean. He started to get up. "I should be going."

However, she grabbed his wrist and pulled him in. Aaron tried to listen but the thing she whispered in his ear with too quiet for him. "I know that was you yesterday," she said. Sean's eyes were wide as dinner plates. He didn't say anything. "Don't think I can't recognize your voice, especially when you're screaming my name."

"Bridge, that wasn't—"

"Thank you," she said. "Thanks for everything."

Whatever resistance Sean had it broke. At first the tears started slowly, but became so much he let loose and gave his sister a tight hug, chanting about how sorry how was over and over again. Bridget hugged him back, a smile on her face and telling him things were okay. In a way, he was the timid little boy he was when he was a kid…

This would make good blackmail material… if Aaron was a heartless prick.

When Sean calmed down he took a look at Bridget, who still had a comforting smile on her face. "When did you know?"

"Recently," she said. "I was confused from the beginning, but hearing your voice made me realize it."

"Are you going to tell anyone?" he asked.

"Of course not," she replied. Sean and Aaron both sighed in relief. "Who else?"

"Him," Sean pointed to Aaron, "Kevin, Maria, Hitomi, Rob and Marty."

"Oh, wow," she said, her voice full of wonder. Now it was her turn to be surprised. "I'm not sure which to be more surprised about."

"Look, we're just trying to save the city," he said, "And the world."

"Oh," she said. "Are you—"

"We have no intention of losing and/or dying," said Sean.

"Typical you," she said. "And I heard Maria donated some blood for me?"

"She did," said Sean.

"She'll make a good sister-in-law."

"Excuse me?"

"I said I want to thank her," said Bridget. Sean shrugged. "You should be going. I'll be out of here soon."

"Okay," he said. He got up and gave her one last hug. "We're going to beat them. I promise."

"Okay," she said. He got up and left.

:-:-:-: Power Rangers GPX :-:-:-:

"… And I just wanted to tell him, 'I'd rather not be in your shadow."

"And yet you had the good grace not to say it out loud," Kevin said, taking a sip from his coffee. The two were sitting at the Starbuck's in the Student Center after Aaron had accompanied Sean to the hospital. Aaron was staring at his coffee, deep in thought. The thoughts of failure had been pushed to the forefront. "Where did you get this idea?" asked Kevin.

"I had a dream," said Aaron, "I saved a whole school, but they gave the credit to Sean."

"When was this?" asked Kevin.

"Before his sister got bitten," said Aaron.

"And you've been feeling this for how long?" asked Kevin.

"Since after I arrived," said Aaron.

"Well, the last time we had someone have an inferiority complex, he nearly got all of us killed," said Kevin. Aaron glanced up at him and then looked up again. Kevin was dead serious.

Aaron had heard about Daisuke Miyazawa. He was the son of a wealthy Japanese family who was one of the main bankrollers of Project Ranger. Because he'd been promised he would be Red Ranger, he was angry when Sean ended up as Red Ranger and the two butt heads quite often, eventually resulting in Daisuke, in anger, breaking from the team. In a resulting battle, Sean, Kevin and Maria were nearly killed by Seamus.

Of course, they ended up reforming and beat Seamus in a truly epic battle you could set a DragonForce song to.

… After which Daisuke left the team and the university, eventually enrolling at Northwestern.

"But I'm not—"

"Of course not," said Kevin. "I'm just telling you that you should be more careful with those thoughts."

"Well what about you?" asked Aaron.

"Well, I was forced to watch the show, so I know Blue Rangers are typically second-in-command," said Kevin. "I settled into the role. And of course, I have my own mission to do."

"Oh, I forgot about that, what's going on?" asked Aaron.

"I've been talking to Dr. Nelson," said Kevin. "But he did remove the map that had the circle around the state."

"Why did he have that?" asked Aaron.

"I wish I asked," said Kevin, "But if I did, I might not get anything more out of him. Getting back to the point, I've been learning more about alchemy. It's chemistry with occult and mystical elements."

"That we already knew," said Aaron. Kevin sighed. It was pretty much accepted among the Rangers that alchemy—as it once was—was an excuse to make money tricking gullible medieval and Renaissance suckers. Ouroboros alchemy… was essentially magic disguising itself as science. And no, Clarke's Third Law did not apply. Of course, Dr. Nelson knew otherwise.

"I suspect, but I have no proof, that Dr. Nelson does alchemy," said Kevin. "I'm going to stay subtle about it."

"Sounds good," said Aaron. Neither of them said anything for the next few seconds. Kevin took a sip of his coffee while Aaron continued to stare at his. "Should I tell Sean…" Kevin had slowly thrown his head backwards in exasperation. "I shouldn't, right?"

"At least have the bloody good grace to wait until the psychological and emotional trauma of seeing his sister being bitten in the neck and coming close to death has healed!" Kevin replied.

At that time, they noticed Hitomi walking past the window, talking to some dude who looked like he was from India. They were both laughing and smiling. Apparently Hitomi seemed to like this guy. They watched as they left their field of vision. "I see she's recovered," said Kevin.

"Are you going to talk to anymore TAs?" asked Aaron. The previous topic was too much.

"Of course," said Kevin. "And if you mention him one more time, we're done. If you want to complain about him, talk to Miyazawa."

"Actually, I saw a story on the news," said Aaron. "An entire town in this state was slaughtered." Kevin looked up, his eyes filled with subtle shock.

"Where did you hear about this?"

"At the hospital," said Aaron. Kevin stayed still. Aaron did not want to see that look on his face or the uncomfortable silence that had enveloped them. They were the only ones in the Starbuck's not talking. But it's not like anyone's going to notice.

"This is not good," he finally said.

Kevin had no idea how right he was.

:-:-:-: PRGPX :-:-:-:

The first time Sirius rolls into town, no one notices. He simply comes into town. If he has no target, he'll leave everyone alone. If he does… you'll be lucky he doesn't come after you. And you'll be even luckier if he makes the death quick and painless. Even if he didn't slaughter entire towns he still did not let his queries escape. Of course, if he entered a large city, he'd only kill his target. Killing 3 million people is A, impossible and B, a good way to draw attention.

However today, he did want to draw some attention. Right now, dressed in a leather jacket, he did fit in… kind of. Some of the country bumpkins were looking at him. He could tell who the college students and transplants were because they didn't so much as bat an eye at him.

He wanted to get the Power Rangers' attention. He knew that any bit of non-typical crime would smoke 'em out. But subtlety is not a term he's very familiar with. Okay, he's familiar with it, but it just did not apply to him.

He walked into the University Mall on the east side of town. It wasn't really bustling, but he didn't care. He looked around. Anyone looked like a good target. It wasn't personal, though. He smiled while he looked around. Someone walked up to him. Mall security, from what it looked like. "How you doing?" the man asked. Sirius smiled. Those were the last words he'd say.

:-:-:-: Power Rangers GPX :-:-:-:

Marty was eager to use his police scanner app. Aaron shook his head, wondering what was so important about a police scanner app. Marty replied that it meant they'd get a head start on the bad guys because the cops would know something was wrong well before SWORD. Aaron had to point out that the Rangers have responded to enemy attacks faster than the cops have.

"Dude, why do you have to disagree with everything I say?" Marty asked.

"Because—"

"We have a 10-31 over at University Mall," the police scanner buzzed.

"Oh, it works," said Marty.

"10-35, 10-33. Suspect is armed and attacking civilians in University Mall. Suspect appears to be using magic."

Magic?

"That's our cue!" said Marty. He quickly called up Sean and Aaron did the same for the others. "Cops say there's an attack going on at University Mall!" he said.

"Then let's go!" Sean shouted on the other end.

"Wait, how are we going to get there?" Marty asked.

"Don't worry," said Aaron, "We have our own 'wheels'."

"Wait, what?" Marty didn't get Aaron to ask because he was up and out before Marty could do anything. By the time they'd morphed, Aaron had called for his "Wheels". A green Indy Car rolled up almost instantly. "Where the fuck did that come from?" he asked.

"Get on," said Aaron.

:-:-:-: PRGPX :-:-:-:

Marty was relieved his white-knuckle ride was over as soon as they reached University Mall. Hitomi had to pry his fingers off the car and drag him over to the entrance. That was where they noticed the guy coming out of the mall, surrounded by a police barricade. The Rangers didn't give the cops the time of day. They just jumped over them and confronted the man coming out. "I was wondering when you would get here!" he said.

"Who are you?" Sean replied, not taking any crap from him.

The man, dressed in black, with black hair and a sorta-muscular physique held his arms out. "You've never heard of me? I thought you would have by now!"

"I said who are you?" Sean replied.

The man did not look pleased. He liked having his reputation, but the Power Rangers were completely unaware of who he was. "Fair enough," he said. "My name is Sirius. I don't really have a last name, but everyone I've met calls me The Bloodletter. And now, it's time to show you what I mean!"

"BRING IT!" Sean shouted. The Rangers summoned their weapons, ready to take whatever Sirius could throw at them. The police, save for Chief Granger (before he recognized it was important) moved back. It was best not to get in the way.

Sirius drew a sword from his back and crouched down. The Rangers stayed firm, refusing to budge. If he was trying to psych them out, it was not working. They were not afraid of him.

… Which made it all the more better for Sirius.

Without warning, he launched himself at the Rangers. He attacked Sean. Sean blocked the attack. The battle was on! The two quickly turned to a high-intensity battle. Sirius aggressively attacked Sean, forcing him back. Sean found himself against a car. Then he jumped out of the way of Sirius's blade. Then he kicked Sirius in the solar plexus and went on the attack.

He thrust and swung the GT Sword at Sirius, keeping the assassin on his heels. Sirius blocked and parried his strikes, but tried to counter. Sean dodged and countered himself, elbowing Sirius in the face.

Sirius stumbled back and did not notice that Kevin had rushed in. He felt a blow to his gut as Kevin grabbed him and tackled him to the ground. He threw Kevin off, but Kevin rolled off and got back up. Sirius threw a punch at Kevin. Kevin blocked it and punched back. He kneed Sirius in the gut. The assassin doubled over. Kevin then elbowed Sirius in the back.

Sirius had never fought anyone like this. They were good! He rolled out of the way of Aaron's kick. He got up and grabbed Aaron's axe as he tried to bring it down upon him. He strained while the Green Ranger tried with all his might to get Sirius off-balance.

He didn't have to worry about that.

Marty snuck up on Sirius and kicked him in the back. Sirius gasped and collided with the nearest car. He turned around and noticed Maria. She thrust and swung her short swords at him. He blocked those attacks with his katana. He stabbed at her, but she jumped out of the way. Out of blindness, he rushed her but she ducked, grabbed him and then threw him to the ground in a way that would make an Aikido and Judo master smile.

Sirius groaned as soon as his back hit the pavement. He severely underestimated them. He didn't have much time to think as Hitomi thrust the blade of her Am Staff down on him. He rolled out of the way, got up and grabbed his sword. He rushed forward, swinging away. But Hitomi blocked his attacks, finding time to spin with precision, blocking his attacks.

Then Hitomi pushed him away. Sirius landed on the ground as the Rangers surrounded him. "Come on, 'Bloodletter', is this the best you can do?" Sean taunted. Sirius was not pleased. He assumed the Red Ranger was giving him a mocking smile. In reality, Sean had a serious look on his face.

The other Rangers readied themselves for Sirius's next attack. Sirius drew a paintbrush from his side. "GET 'IM!" Sean shouted. Sirius had bent down, but looked up in time to notice Hitomi knee him right in the face. Now knocked on his back, Hitomi rushed to his side and tried to pry the paintbrush out of his hand.

Naturally, Sirius would have none of it, grabbing it away from her. He drew a transmutation circle on a Chevy while keeping her at bay. The circle crackled and he drew a long bladed staff from the Chevy. Whoever owns that thing is going to be pissed. He whacked Hitomi out of the way (but only because she was off-balance). Maria picked her friend up and punched Sirius in the face. Hitomi then hooked his legs out from under him.

This was getting frustrating for Sirius. All those years he quietly terrorized the underground world of alchemy had built up his reputation, just like the Ouroboros Society. He'd never lost a battle. Anyone who challenged him was cut down by his blade. He staggered back to his feet, growling at his enemies. Who were they? They were nothing; ordinary people who were recruited by some group to fight their battles.

And yet, judging by their battle, they were not afraid of him. They didn't even care who he was!

Perhaps that was it. He'd built up such a reputation amongst a secret culture that the non-alchemists who had never heard of him had no reason to fear him. No one knew why the population of whole towns disappeared without a trace. He never left evidence of his existence.

As for the Rangers, they were not impressed with him so far. Who the hell was this guy? Why was he calling himself "The Bloodletter"? He couldn't stick a pin in his skin, for cryin' out loud! Some of the Rangers were starting to get overconfident. But Sean told them to cut it out. "So, Sirius, are you done yet? Or do you want more?"

Sirius laughed. "I'm just getting started! How about I have some fun with your sis—" He was cut off by the Red Ranger's boot to his face. He then felt himself being dragged over to the curb and his head placed on the curb.

"You want Blue to curb stomp you?" said Sean. "Say it again, and he'll do it! Hell, we'll probably do worse!"

"I thought you were supposed to be the so-called 'good' guys!" Sirius shouted.

"There's no rule that says we have to be nice!" said Sean.

"I just hope you don't cross any other lines," said Sirius. He then felt Sean grab him but the collar.

"Get the hell out of our city," he said.

"No, I just got here," said Sirius. Suddenly, Sean heard crackling. He looked down and noticed Sirius's gloves were crackling.

"What the—"

KA-BOOM!

Sean screamed, flying through the air and collided with a minivan that was pushed into several more cars just by the force of the impact. Car alarms were blaring. The other Rangers looked back at Sirius. His glove was crackling with energy. "What happened?" Sean asked in a daze.

"He grabbed your suit," Maria replied as she helped him out of the van wreckage. "Are you okay?" She stroked the side of his helmet and he nodded, giving her a light headbutt before he took her back to the fight.

It had become obvious the tide had turned. The other Rangers were very nervous now and they fell prey to Sirius. The first one to go down was Marty. Sirius noticed he was not a natural fighter and grabbed his suit. The explosion sent Marty flying and also crashing into several cars.

Kevin threw a punch at Sirius. He caught the punch and tried to grab Kevin. However, Kevin had seen what he had to do and grabbed Sirius's hand. He twisted Sirius's arm around. "The best way to disarm someone," said Kevin, "If you ask me." Sirius responded by kicking Kevin's shin. He let got and found Sirius putting his hand in his face. The resulting explosion caused him to notice he'd flown into a jewelry store.

"My alchemy allows me to create an unstable imbalance of energy," said Sirius. "Sure, I like to use regular alchemy, since it's so easy, but causing explosions, that's much more fun."

Hitomi had decided to keep her distance. She pulled out her blaster and started shooting. However, Sirius dodged her shots, grabbed her and sent her flying again. He did the same to Sean, Maria and Aaron. "Now then," he said. "Where's your bravado now, Rangers?"

Aaron had not flown very far. He got out of the Mercury Cougar he'd crashed into, stumbling out and trying to stay on his feet. Sirius noticed this and raised his eyebrow. He could see Aaron's face, which was half-covered by a busted helmet. "You're still standing," he said.

"Someone has to take a stand," said Aaron. "Might as well be me."

"GET 'IM, NDEBELE!" Aaron rushed Sirius. He threw a punch that hit his target. He threw a barrage of punches and kicks that kept Sirius off guard. Sirius tried to grab Aaron, but he got out of the way each time. He punched, kicked, blocked, elbowed, kicked, punched, punched at Sirius. He had him on the run!

"What, did you actually think you can win?" Sirius asked. Aaron noticed he had grabbed him.

KA-BOOM!

The next thing Aaron knew, his ears were ringing and he was struggling to get up. He could see Sirius's feet in the distance. He blinked several times trying to focus. However, his ears rang so badly and his head felt like it was being pounded.

"Personally, I prefer subtlety," said Sirius. "But, you left me no choice. I really enjoyed our fight, though. But you're not good enough."

"Then what about me?"

They all turned to see some Asian guy standing in the parking lot. His arms were crossed and he looked like he meant business. "Who is he?" asked Kevin.

"Who are you?" asked Sirius.

"I'm the Green Ranger!" he said.

"… What?" Sirius asked, as confused as someone who'd just seen Evangelion for the first time.

"IT'S MORPHIN' TIME! ZEO RANGER FOUR, GREEN!"

Sirius now had a mouth as wide as a subway tunnel. "THERE'S MORE OF THEM!?" he shouted.

"No. Fucking. WAY!" Sean shouted.

"COME ON!" the new Green Ranger shouted. He ran forward and attacked. Sirius seemed confused and unable to fight back. The Green Ranger threw a punch. Sirius's head jerked back, but he stayed on his feet. His gloves started to crackle, but the Green Ranger jumped back, jumping on top of a car.

"Zeo Blade!" he shouted, drawing his sword. He jumped off the car and attacked Sirius again. Sirius tried to block with his swords, but the new Green Ranger had him outclassed. He thrust and swung at Sirius, which made him stumbled backwards.

"COME ON!" Sean shouted at the rest of them. "Are you just gonna sit here and leave him to himself!?"

"But he's doing fine on his own!" said Marty.

"Rangers NEVER abandon other Rangers!" Sean replied. "LET'S GO—AAH!" He felt a twinge of pain and fell to the ground.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of him!" the Green Ranger shouted. He gave Sirius another kick to the chest, which caused the assassin to fall backwards.

He grabbed his chest and tried to stand up, but the new Green Ranger put his foot on Sirius's chest. "Get out of here," he said.

Sirius didn't need another word. He started to crackle before teleporting away.

"Holy shit," said Marty. Sean helped him up and the others got up, too. They gathered near the new guy.

"Is everyone okay?" he asked.

"Where the hell did you come from?" asked Sean.

"Oh, sorry!" said the new guy. He removed his helmet, causing Sean to recognize him instantly—even though it was clear he'd never met him.

"You—you're—"

"Nice to meet you," he said while extending his hand, "My name's Adam Park. And yes, I'm a veteran Power Ranger."

:-:-:-: Power Rangers GPX :-:-:-:

"So, the mighty Sirius the Bloodletter lost," Bellatrix cracked while he was being de-briefed by the Ouroboros Society. "What happened?"

"I underestimated them," said Sirius. "But it was obvious they underestimated me, as well."

"And then what?" asked Drake.

"Another Power Ranger arrived," he said.

"Yes, we know about him, he is a police officer," said Drake. "But he will be—"

"No, not him," said Sirius. "He was a Green Ranger." Drake spat out the coffee he was drinking.

"WHAT!?" he said. "Are you saying—"

"I don't know where he came from!" said Sirius. The others all looked shocked and surprised at this.

"How is this possible?" asked Drake.

:-:-:-: PRGPX :-:-:-:

Meanwhile, Rob drove up to the crime scene at University Mall. The CPD had cordoned off the area, so he could only go as far as the police tape. He walked up to Chief Granger and tapped him on the shoulder. "Oh, hello, Officer Jackson," he said.

"What's the situation?" he asked.

"A major fight here," said Chief Granger. "But don't worry, we'll handle it."

"Sounds great," said Rob. "I hope you catch the guy who attacked."

"He's not my concern," said Chief Granger. Rob raised his eyebrow. This was not what he expected.

"Well, if he's a member of that group, then—"

"Officer Jackson, you need to stay out of our affairs," said Chief Granger. His tone was threatening and his face sealed the deal. Rob began to feel unease in the pit of his stomach. He didn't say anything else. He simply walked away, a little nervous at Chief Granger.

This didn't make any sense! Why would Chief Granger be—oh, no!

Sean VO: "Next time on Power Rangers GPX SIU!"

Adam: "I came here to help."

Aaron: "But I feel so—"

Adam: (Interrupting) "—Inferior?"

Sirius: "I think I'll smoke the Rangers out."

Sean: "Make one more step and we will kill you."

Aaron: "ADAM!"

Rob: "I think something's going on with Chief Granger."

Sean VO: "That's next time on Power Rangers GPX SIU!"

End chapter

So how was that? Things are really starting to ramp up now, so be sure to follow along! And yes, that is Adam, and I decided to make him Zeo Ranger 4 was because he's already been Black Ranger enough that I decided to shake things up. So tell me what you think! Is Sirius a good villain? Did I make any mistakes? Let me know in your review!

Oh, and a big thanks to Brother Grimace, a fellow SIU grad for his review! I feel so honored! Once a Saluki, always a Saluki!
