Author's note: This story is dedicated to Pink Green and White 4ever and to Phantom Rouge, and of course to my loyal subscribers, whom I love to write for. These two authors have inspired me greatly to keep writing my stories. Greetings to everyone! Please review! I'm terribly sorry for the delay, I apologize to everyone. It's just I've been really busy with school and everything, I hope everyone likes this chapter.
Summary of last chapter: The Grayson home is attacked by Grumm and Broodwing. Carter, Dana, Wes and Jen do their best to protect Sky and Syd, but sadly fail to do so. Grumm captures Syd and takes her aboard his ship. Morgana brands Sydney on the back, telling the innocent 7 year old that if she ever tries to escape, that she would kill her.
Disclaimer: I do not own anything from Power Rangers SPD.Otherwise I would have absolutely had given Syd and Sky an onscreen kiss. I wish I could own Sky and Syd, but I don't.
Eleven Years Later
Sydney woke up that morning feeling weirdly happy. She jumped down from her bed and went to the central chamber of the ship. As she was walking, Syd remembered that she was barefoot and the floor was extremely cold, as it always had been. When Syd reached the chamber, she was indeed shocked at what she had found. A rectangle shaped cake covered in pink and white frosting was lying in the middle of a table. She rushed over to it and opened her mouth in awe, and stared at it in a genuine look of shock and surprise. She was so distracted and blown away that she didn't even hear the footsteps that were approaching her.
Syd felt a bony hand touching her shoulder, she jumped in terror and quickly turned around. She calmed down and looked at the creature with relief. It was just Grumm, she calmed down and stared at him quietly. Grumm circled her several times, looking at her from head to toe. Syd gave him quizzical look for his rather strange behavior. Gruum stopped his circling and faced Syd. Grumm turned around and grabbed a knife, he carefully cut a piece of the cake and placed it on a plastic plate that was on the table. He picked the plate up with his right hand and handed it to Syd. Syd was really confused now.
"Sydney let's go sit. I need to speak with you." He ordered, without protest Syd followed him to the table and sat down besides him.
"Thank you for the cake."
"You deserve it, after all, it is your 18th birthday today." He complimented
"Yeah, I know it's my birthday, but you have never bought me a cake for my birthday since I got here." Sydney said rather confused
"I know, but today's special."
"Special? Why is today different from any of my other birthdays?" She questioned
"Because you have now completed your training and you are ready to fulfill the destiny we have talked about in the past." Grumm turned around and lowered his head
"Yes, I'm indeed ready to fulfill my destiny." Syd had a huge smile on her face, Syd observed Grumm and was curious about his attitude "My Lord, is there something that has you worried?"
"It's good that you ask that, Sydney." He said " I'm just worried about the many obstacles we will face before you can fulfill your destiny."
"Obstacles?" She asked
"Yes, obstacles. The first obstacle we will encounter is in the planet below." He said
"Which planet are we orbiting right now?"
"We are orbiting your home planet, Earth." Syd squealed in delight
"Earth, I can't wait I haven't gone down there in a lot of time!" Syd screamed once again
"Stop shouting!" Grumm ordered
"I'm sorry. It's just that I kind of miss my home and everything that I had back on Earth." She confessed sadly
"Look, Sydney you are not going to Earth to visit your home." He snapped and his eyes began to glow. " You are going to Earth to destroy the only thing that stops you from fulfilling your destiny!"
"I understand and I'm sorry for acting in such a childish way." She apologized
"You know what obstacle I'm talking about?" She shook her head in denial
"I'm talking about destroying the SPD headquarters in Earth, and I'm going to let you help me in doing that."
Syd was rather amused by his orders and delighted in some way, Syd herself knew she would truly enjoy causing destruction down on the planet she called home. Grumm had never let her take part in any fights against other planets, because according to him, she wasn't fully trained and her powers hadn't reached her maximum potential. Syd tried to think twice about her destiny, did she really want to destroy her home planet or leave as it was? Syd soon realized that she had no choice but to destroy Earth. She did not have a home to go to or a place to stay. She didn't even know people on Earth.
"Yes, My Lord, I will help in destroying SPD. What are your orders?" Syd asked
"Your first official orders are to recover the proton accelerator located in downtown New Tech City." She nodded in obedience
"Do you have any allies on Earth that can help us find this proton accelerator?"
"Yes, I actually have one in that location." The cruel emperor answered "His name is Piggy, he resides in a dumpster. But let me tell you that he likes to receive payment before granting his services to anyone."
"What kind of payment do I give him?" Syd questioned
"He is kind of pathetic when it comes to payment. He likes to receive rotten food for payment." He answered with a laugh
Syd slowly walked out of the room. Suddenly, before she could fully exit the door before her was closed. She returned to Grumm and faced him. Grumm snapped his fingers and a variety of weapons appeared in a flash of light before her own eyes. She open her mouth in awe at the simple sight of weapons. Grumm snapped his fingers once again and now a small device had appeared in his hand. Although, Syd couldn't tell what the device exactly looked like, but it looked like some sort of bracelet.
"Before you go, I wanted to give you a little help to accomplish our plan." Syd looked confused once again
"Help? Help for what?"
"In case SPD shows up and tries to arrest you. Which I'm certain they will." Syd now looked even more confused
"How would SPD know I'm there?"
"SPD has tons of security around the city. They will surely locate your energy signal and alarms will go off. Once the alarms go off they will send a squad of cadets, which are not fully trained or complete amateurs, or officers, which have a larger range of weapons and wil have an easier chance to arrest you. That's why you need my and of course, Broodwing's help."
"I don't mean to pry, but what is the device that you're holding?" She asked motioning to the skeleton's clutched hand
"You are prying, but this is actually for you." He retrieved her hand and put a sort of bracelet around her wrist
"What is that?" Syd asked looking at the strange bracelet that was now tied around her wrist
"It's what you call "power maximizer", this little device will help you to transform into your battle suit, which serves for protection against your enemies. It's bullet-proof and this will increase the potential of you powers." Grumm explained.
"When can I begin my mission?" She asked with a Cheshire smile on her face
"Right now, my dear." Grumm circled her once again. "Another thing, my dear, if you want to be a respectable villianess, you will need another name. You don't suppose that every villain out there uses his or her real name, right?"
"OK, but what name should I use?"
"I'll give you three options." He said stopping for the third time. "Rogue, Raven or Syren. You have the final choice."
"I really don't like Raven, it's way too... birdy for me. I do like Syren but I have to admit, it is a little too porn star-ish." She rambled, Grumm just rolled his eyes. " I'll go with the name Rogue."
"Then, Rogue, you are now ready to complete your mission."
"Yes, My Lord."
SPD Command Center
Two young men were pacing around the Command Center, both filled with the same expectations and dreams, to become a Power Ranger. One of the men was tall, handsome, had brownish sandy hair and soulful dark blue eyes. The other had spiky brown hair and chocolate brown eyes, and for some strange reason always wore black leather gloves. The tall one was pacing around the room like a mad man, while the other young man was much more calm.
"Sky, if you keep walking like that you're going to dig a hole in the floor." One of the young men joked
"Bridge, I can't help it, I'm nervous." Sky said still pacing
"I know, I'm nervous too." Bridge said
"I know you are, cadets. But you're ready." A deep voice came from the outside of the room, the voice came from Commander Anubis Cruger
Commander Anubis Cruger, or Commander Cruger as everybody around the base knew and respected was much like his name stated a big, blue dog, taller than most people and somewhat intimidating at sight. The Commander walked over to two cadets and both saluted their Commander.
"Cadets you have completed your basic training and excelled at it, me and Dr. Catherine Manx have been talking and we reached the decision that you are ready for bigger challenges and missions." The Commander explained. "That's why we decided to give you this..."
Doctor Katherine "Kat" Manx, was an alien that had feline features, such as the pointy ears and green emerald eyes. She came in with a clear transparent tray with something on top of it, three things to be exact. She placed the tray on the table and grabbed one of the devices.
"Cadets, by being promoted you will be receiving dangerous missions, what happens in the simulators is not the same as out there. So this will help you on your various missions." Kat briefly explained
"What is that thing that you are holding?" Bridge interrupted
"This Cadet Carson, is a morpher, now take one." Both of them obeyed and took one the devices.
"You will now be able to transform into Power Rangers with it, it also has a judgement mode. Judgement mode wil help you determine whether the suspect is guilty or innocent." Kat paused "This never makes mistakes, it measures body temperature, impulses, etc. As you both know we don't destroy criminals, we lock them away in containment cards. You can trap any guilty criminal into a containment card by pressing the left button on the upper side of you morpher." She pointed to a red button on the device.
"Sky what do you say if we go celebrate." Bridge raised his hand in high five , as usual, Sky wasn't amused by his childish ways and simply decided to ignored him. The alarms went off and Bridge lowered his hand. Kat ran to the computer system and started clicking and tapping buttons.
"Sir there's a disturbance in downtown New Tech."
"Send A- Squad." The big blue dog ordered
"A- Squad is currently fighting off a robot in the plaza." The feline informed
"What kind of disturbance is it?"
"The disturbances are human sir, they are robbing Parkington market."
"Cadet Carson, Cadet Tate head over there and bring the thieves to custody." He ordered
"Yes Sir." They left the Command Center and headed for their vehicles
