I don't own Power Rangers. Rick, Rebecca, Louis, Zara, Alex, Joe and Jin were created by Jetman21, Thewhatzupwriter26, RushQuake, GoseiShinkenPink, decode9, TimmayIsAwesome and Gadget the Critic, respectively. Ted, Cronos and the Professor were created by me.

...

Rebecca sat in her room, using a set of curling irons on her hair. It was her 16th Birthday, and the party was due to start in a couple of hours. She'd already changed her dress about nine times, finally settling on a yellow flowery dress with a denim jacket.

"Knock knock." Came a voice from the door, Rebecca turning to see Zara and Alex stood in the doorway, Alex continuing "We thought you could use a hand setting up for the party."

"Maybe you should go talk to my Mom." Rebecca said with a small laugh "She's tearing her hair out over the party. Doesn't help that my older sister's bringing her new Boyfriend and Dad's more concerned with working out his 'touch my daughter and I break your face' speech."

"Rick drove me, your Dad can practice on him." Zara said, chuckling "If he hasn't already disappeared. He said something about needing to finish a project he's been working on."

"Oh." Rebecca said, her tone slightly disappointed "I'd better go say hi while he's here then."

"Okay, no worries." Zara said "Last I saw him, he was going to take a look out back."

Rebecca walked out of the room and quickly ran down the stairs. It was times like this she wished her Mother wasn't quite so good as a lawyer, so that they lived in a more normal sized house. Still, she wouldn't be able to have big Birthday Parties at home if they did.

She walked through to the garden, a large, open space currently being set up for a barbeque. She looked around for a moment before seeing Rick, a number of plates stacked up in his hands, Rebecca's mother, a slim, blonde woman in her mid forties, supervising him as he laid them out on the long tables set out throughout the garden.

"That's it, Richard, just between the cutlery." Rebecca's mother said with a smile before noticing Rebecca "Oh, Becca, you're just in time. Pass me that tray on the table over there, will you?"

"Sure." Rebecca said, picking up the silver tray and taking it over to her Mother "Can I borrow Rick?"

"Sure, honey." Her Mother said with a smile "You're lucky, Richard. She's saved you from my monstrous clutches."

Rick half laughed at the statement. Rebecca figured he'd probably have found it funnier if they didn't fight literal monsters on a regular basis. She watched as he set the stack of plates down on the table, and waited for him to catch up to her before leading him inside.

"Sorry she drafted you." Rebecca said, rolling her eyes "You'd think it'd be my Dad the Admiral who'd do that."

"She didn't draft me." Rick corrected her "She was struggling so I offered to help out."

"Well aren't you the knight in shining armour." She teased "I hear you're not staying for the party?"

"Afraid not." He said "I've got a project to finish off back home. I'll try and swing by for the tail end of the party."

"You'd better, blue boy." Rebecca said, pulling Rick into a tight hug "Thanks for helping my Mom set up."

"No problem." Rick said, pausing for a second before wriggling out of the hug "See you later."

Rick turned and walked out. As he did, Alex came walking down the stairs, holding up a pair of dresses; one a short green strapless one, the other a longer, diagonal cut crimson one.

"Can I borrow one of these?" She asked with a smile "I have nothing to wear for the party."

Rektax sat in his chair. He had been watching the events unfolding at the Yellow Ranger's house for the last half an hour. It was so pathetic, but since the Emperor had ordered him to standby, he had nothing to do but sit and watch the Power Rangers. It gave him sympathy for the children that were put in front of the TV to watch them.

Still, it gave him an idea. He'd been told he wasn't to advance the invasion. He'd been given no orders regarding the Rangers. He snapped his fingers.

"Komodus!" He yelled, the black and white figure appearing apparently from thin air behind him "How has your practice imitating Humans been coming along?"

"Why, I don't know, old chap!" Komodus said, his usual voice replace with a thick, upper class British accent, which slowly slipped to Australian as he said "I think I'm doing a cracking job, right, mate?"

"It will have to do." Rektax said "I have a task for you."

...

Kevin James pulled up to the house in his Porsche. He'd been invited to his Girlfriend, Stacey's younger sister's birthday party. He could think of better things to do with his time, but he had to make a good impression on her parents. Even if that was a bother.

As he went to get out of the car, the weight of it shifted, Kevin looking beside him and being shocked by a figure in white and black armour with silver spiked sections on it.

"Hi there." The figure hissed "I need to borrow your look. Here, have a free vacation!"

The figure reached out and touched Kevin, who felt a rush and a wave of nausea, before appearing in what looked like a black, metal cell. Outside were a group of insect like creatures, buzzing sounds coming from them.

"Oh crap!" He said, jumping back "Where am I?"

...

Rebecca walked out into the garden. She could see a few dozen people from school, with a couple of the other Rangers dotted around. Alex and Zara were stood with her sister, Lacy, chatting about something or other, whilst Ted, Louis and Joe were sat at a table, Ted apparently trying to eat what looked like a mountain of burgers.

Meanwhile, up by the barbecue, she could see her parents talking with Stacey and a young man with black hair in a leather jacket and jeans. She sighed. It was time to meet her sister's new boyfriend.

She walked across the garden, crossing over to them and smiling politely as she reached them.

"Hi Daddy." She said, pecking her father on the cheek before turning to her sister and the young man, holding a hand out to the young man with a polite smile "Hey, I'm Rebecca."

"Nice to meet you, and thanks for inviting me to this lovely party." He said with a small smirk "Martin here was just telling me a couple of his old stories."

"Seriously?" She asked, looking at her father "Dad, you've just met Stacey's new boyfriend, and you're already boring him with stories about boats?"

"He asked, sweetie." Her father said with a chuckle before turning to the barbecue, flipping a few more burgers "Your friend in the red over there sure likes his food, doesn't he? This is the third batch in half an hour!"

"Ted's got a bottomless pit instead of a stomach." She said with a laugh "So, Kevin, right? What do you do around school?"

"I've just transferred, and I'm thinking about trying out for the football team." He said with a smirk.

"Thinking about?" Stacey said, slapping him in the stomach "You did try out last month, that's how we met!"

"Oh, I, uh, know." He said, his voice faltering for a second "I was just teasing."

Before Rebecca could respond, she heard a beeping from her purse. She smiled politely as she excused herself, moving behind a nearby tree and pulling out her morpher, raising it to her mouth.

"What's up?" She asked.

"I'm getting some strange readings." Came the Professor's voice "They match the ones I saw on the monitors when Komodus showed up last week. Is anything odd going on there?"

"Nothing I can think of." She said, pausing before shaking off the thought "No, nothing."

"You paused." The Professor noted "What were you thinking?"

"It's nothing, it's just-" She began, before thinking her wording through "My sister has her new boyfriend here. He made a joke about trying out for the football team a little while ago. Then he seemed genuinely surprised when my sister pointed out he was already on it and that's how they met."

"Keep a close eye on him." The Professor said "Try not to do anything that might make him suspect you're onto him. I'll let the others know."

"Got it." She said "I'll check in later."

"Good." The Professor said "Happy Birthday, Rebecca."

The line cut off and she put her morpher back in her bag. She walked back round, seeing her parents stood by the barbecue alone. She frantically scanned the area before running over to them.

"Mom? Dad?" She said "Where'd Stacey and Kevin go?"

"They went out the front." Her mother replied "Apparently, he wanted to show her his new car."

"They're on their own?" Rebecca said, before running off.

"Aren't I supposed to be the one who's worried about her being alone with a boy?" Her father questioned, before both her parents shrugged.

...

Rick walked into the house, nearly being knocked to the floor by Rebecca's sister and a young man about his age, the large, rectangular package he held hitting the floor. He grimaced. Hopefully it was okay.

"Rick, you came!" Rebecca said as she approached him, helping him up "Come on, let's get after them."

"After who?" Rick said as she grabbed his hand "Wait, the present!"

Rebecca disregarded his statement as she dragged him out the front door before grimacing as she turned around quickly. Rick sighed as he looked at her, at what she'd turned away from and back to her.

"This is what's so important?" He asked "Your sister and her boyfriend making out?"

"What?" She said "No, my morpher was beeping and then I spoke to the Professor, and then-"

"It's fine." Stacey said, smiling "Becky's probably just jealous that she doesn't have a boyfriend as cute as mine."

"What?" Rebecca asked, confused "Stacey, why would you say that?"

"Because it's true." Stacey said, walking up to Rebecca and saying quietly "It's fine. He's pretty cute."

"Cute..." Rebecca said, pausing "When do you call anyone cute?"

Before Stacey could reply, Ted, Alex, Louis and Rebecca came running out.

"Get away from those two!" Zara said, the four who had just arrived standing ready to fight.

"They aren't who they say you are." Ted said "The Professor used his scans and kept tabs on your sister's new boyfriend. He took her and she was replaced with someone else."

"Let me guess." Rick said "Chamella?"

"Spoil sport!" 'Stacey' said poking her tongue out as she changed into Chamella, while her boyfriend changed into Komodus before a dozen Buzzers appeared "Let's deal with them!"

"I think she took the words right out of my mouth." Rebecca said as her and Rick joined up with the other four Rangers as all six of them pulled their morphers "Ready guys?"

"Ready!" The other five said, all six of them calling "Rev Max, Power Up!"

Golden gears outlined in their respective colours appeared on their chests, spinning rapidly causing the energy around them to radiate around their bodies, forming the suits. A moment later, their helmets appeared.

"Over Rev mode!" Rick, Rebecca, Zara and Louis called, pressing the control on their morphers, their suits converting to Over Rev mode.

"Paladin Morpher!" Ted called, the red and gold device appearing on his wrist before he pressed the control on it "Red Paladin Ranger! Warrior mode!"

He transformed into his battilized form, the six Rangers forming up to face down their foes.

"Green Rev Max Ranger, ready!"

"White Over Rev Ranger, ready!"

"Black Over Rev Ranger, ready!"

"Blue Over Rev Ranger, ready!"

"Yellow Over Rev Ranger, ready!"

"Red Paladin Ranger, ready!"

"Power Down, Rangers." Chamella said, smirking as she added "Unless you want your Yellow Ranger's sister and her little boyfriend hurt?"

The other five Rangers looked to Rebecca. After a second, she powered down, Alex, Rebecca and Louis following suit. Ted and Rick stood there for a moment, standing off with Chamella and Komodus before finally powering down, scowling at the two Kaltax warriors.

"That wasn't so hard, was it?" Komodus said, laughing before continuing "Morphers, now."

"Oh, hell no." Ted said, charging forward only to have Komodus catch him by the throat, lifting him into the air.

"Not so tough now, are you, Red Ranger?" The creature said, laughing as he hurled Ted backwards, Louis and Rick moving over to help him up "Okay, keep your morphers. Not like they're any use to you."

"Exactly." Chamella said with a sadistic grin "We'll continue our invasion, and if we see even a hint of interference, her sister dies. Try having that one on your conscience."

The two Kaltax warriors laughed as they teleported away, along with the Drones. Rebecca fell to the floor, tears in her eyes. Zara and Rebecca crouched down beside her, trying to console her, while Louis and Rick huddled round Ted.

"What's the plan now?" Rick asked.

"Yeah, c'mon fearless leader." Louis added "What're we going to do?"

"Regroup, and come up with a plan." Ted said, turning to Rebecca and saying "Don't worry, Rebecca. We'll get them back. No matter the cost."
