Captain Blues: Here we go
[Location: Outer Space
POV: General]
Running down the halls of his ship, the Pirate Galleon was a ranger with a red spandex jacket that bore white accents and gold straps on the sides of the jacket as well as a flipped-up white collar that was connected to the jacket.
And within that jacket was a black spandex shirt with a white skull and swords in the middle of it as well as black spandex pants with a thick gold belt around the waist with a gold buckle in the middle.
The ranger also wore red boots with a grey strap around the top of them, white gloves with grey cuffs around the gloves, and finally, a red helmet with a pirate hat motif and a black visor that was shaped like a wide, bold "V" with two black spikes that were attached to the visor going down the sides of the helmet with gold accent tracing around it and the same skull and swords insignia on top of the helmet
Seeing the cogs running towards him, he gripped the hilt of his Pirate Sabre, a cutlass with a black and red hilt with the skull and crossed sword insignia on a small light blue platform, swearing under his breath as he was struck in the chest by a Cog, a robot foot soldier of the Machine Empire that had a shining silver body, a gold head, hands, and boots.
"Damn it," he swore in annoyance, striking down a few more Cogs before running forward, trying to get to the center of his ship where he knew that his teammate, Pirate Pink, would be there steering the ship but then he when he got to the door
The woman he saw steering the ship was dressed in a similar attire as he was but the only difference was that instead of having a red helmet, red boots, and a red jacket, she was wearing a pink jacket, a short pink skirt that was just beneath her pink jacket a pink helmet where her visor was shaped as a heart and her boots where pink as well.
"Pirate Pink!" The ranger yelled in relief at seeing her at the helm of the ship.
The ranger turned around and said "Captain Red! You're still alive!" Pirate Pink shouted while trying to keep the ship steady.
"Of course, now you need to get out of here!" Captain Red exclaimed while steadying himself on a banister nearby
"I can't do that without the others, Captain!" Pirate Pink exclaimed while clutching the steering wheel tightly.
Captain Red shook his head and took her by the shoulders and said to her in a harsh tone "The others have already been captured by the Machine Empire. The Pirate Galleon is being destroyed by their forces as we waste time speaking here. We need to get out of here as quickly as possi—"
Another explosion took over the ship they were in, causing both pirates to fly forward, causing them to slam to the ground beneath them. "Well…It seems like things have gone to hell for the Pirate Force," A male, mechanical voice said from above them in a cocky tone.
The two pirates looked up to see a large, bulky silver robot with brass pipes and machine parts on its body, five light bulbs on its head and red eyes, and a large silver blade in its right hand.
"Hiramechimedes," The two Pirates exclaimed in shock.
"In the name of the Royal House of Gadgetry, I suggest you two surrender to the Machine Empire immediately!"
Captain Red got onto his feet with a wince and held his chest in pain, looking back at the Pirate Pink to say "Get in your zord and get out of here! I'll hold off Hiramechimedesas long as I can," while pulling out his Pirate sabre and Pirate pistol, never taking his eyes off of his opponent.
Hiramechimedes hopped down to where Captain Red was standing and slashed his blade down at the Captain. Captain Red managed to block the blade with his sabre, pushed the blade away, and used his Pirate pistol to shoot the machine in the chest, making a brief shower of sparks fall from the machine's chest.
After stumbling back from the shots, the robot merely laughed before kicking Captain Red in the chest, causing him to fly backward into a wooden table but he quickly got back up to block the next strike.
"What are you waiting for?! Get out of here!" He demanded with anger in his voice
She looked at Hiramechimedesthen at Captain Red, not wanting to make the choice but she heard her Captain yell, "Go, I'll be right after you! I promise!"
After hearing that, she nodded and ran out of the room as fast as she could, trying to block out the sounds of Captain Red's pain-filled grunts and yells as well as the sounds of swords and gunfire.
As Pirate Pink ran through the exploding ship to her ship, she caught a few Cogs coming towards her and hissed in anger, pulling out her pistol and began to shoot at the foot soldiers with it, shooting down many of them before feeling the entire ship rumble again, causing her to spill over into the kitchen.
Once she got back on her feet, she started to attack the soldiers of the Machine Empire once more, kicking two in the head before shooting two soldiers in the face but quickly hopped onto the kitchen counter and flipped off of it while simultaneously pulling out her Pirate Sabre just as two Cogs were going to tackle her and quickly shot one in the head while stabbing another through the chest.
Withdrawing her sabre, she quickly turned around and slashed/shot through the remaining foot soldiers until she came upon the large chamber at the bottom of the Pirate Galleon where her zord, the pink submarine lay waiting for her.
Without wasting any more time, she ran towards the machine and quickly went inside and sat down in the leather chair.
She gazed at the lifeless console in front of her and shakily murmured into the built-in microphone, "This is Pirate Pink."
For a moment, the console in front of her was still dead but then the lights around her and on her console began to shine a bright pink as a mechanical female voice rang out, "Pirate Marine is online."
Pirate Pink let out a small breath of relief but then she heard another, albeit small female robotic voice say, "Pirate Pink, please open the door."
The Pirate let out a small gasp in surprise and murmured "Navi," before quickly opening the door of her zord and a small robotic crimson and gold parrot came flying into the small chamber.
"Pirate Pink, I am so glad to see you," The parrot exclaimed happily while Pirate Pink nodded in agreement before an explosion shook the ship they were on.
"We must get out of here before the Pirate Galleon is destroyed," Navi said to her as another explosion rocked the ship.
"But the Captain—" Pirate Pink started to say but once more, an explosion rocked the ship, causing her to accidentally bump into the launch button.
"No!" Pirate Pink shouted in horror as the bottom floor of the Galleon opened up and her zord fell from large ship.
Pirate Pink left the seat of her small chamber to look out the back window of her zord, just moments before it exploded completely.
"No…" She murmured in stunned horror.
That wasn't just some ship.
That was her home and the home of her friends and now it was gone…Completely gone and the worst part was that her Captain was on that ship, battling the Machine Empire's top agent.
"Captain…" She murmured while pressing her gloved hand to her window, tears falling from her unseen eyes but she heard an alarm blare inside of her zord.
Once she returned to her seat, she buckled into her seat and saw a few gold ships flying after her.
"I need to get out of here!" She cried while steering her ship away from their lasers but after managing to avoid two of them, the tail end of her zord was struck, causing her to spiral out of control down to the planet Earth.
Pirate Pink was pressing the emergency button that was held on the left side of her cockpit and a moment later, a blue orb wrapped around her zord just as she started to enter the Earth's atmosphere.
[Location: Hiramechimedes' Ship
POV: House of Gadgetry Knight Hiramechimedes]
Hiramechimedes was sitting on his throne in his ship, listening to his report from the Cogs in interest, listening to how they successfully managed to capture Pirates Yellow, Blue, and Green but as they were getting to Pirate Silver, three Cogs came in and bowed in front of Hiramechimedes and said in a robotic voice "Sir, Pirate Pink has gotten away."
Hiramechimedes suddenly launched himself from his chair in anger and stomped down to the bowed Cogs, lifted it by its neck, and said "What do you mean by this?!"
The Cog that wasn't in Hiramechimedes' grasp told him how they had shot her down and watched as she fell toward a planet.
"A planet…There are many in this solar system. What planet could she have fallen on?" Hiramechimedes pondered, crushing the neck of the Cog he was holding, causing its head to explode before dropping its remains onto the floor.
Walking towards a large console that had a hologram of the crest of the Machine Empire above it, Hiramechimedes pressed a few buttons on the console and watched as several planets were brought up into his sight.
"Hm…Tell me Cog, what were the coordinates of this planet where Pirate Pink was shot down?" Hiramechimedes typed in the coordinates of the planet and after a few minutes, a hologram of Earth appeared in front of him, spiraling very slowly.
"Earth…."
Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Final Mix
Crossover Episode One: Might Morphin x Armada Force
[Location: Halo Beach
POV: Katherine Hillard]
It had been two days since the battle alongside the rangers and Katherine felt as if her world was tilted to the side.
She felt as if she matured after battling as the Aura Pink Ranger and coming back home after all of that seemed…Strange to her.
Was this how the others felt after their first outing as rangers?
They were fighting for their lives against these forces of evil and any day could truly be their last. Of course, they would need to mature to survive.
Speaking of the rangers, it had been two days since she had seen any of them but she knew that they all had been pretty injured and that they needed to heal. Luckily, the city hadn't been attacked since that battle.
'No doubt Rita is hurting due to two of her monsters being killed and a third possibly going rogue,' Katherine thought with a wry grin.
So since the others weren't available, Katherine and her mother, Charlotte Hillard were sunbathing at Halo Beach after a surfing session, both wearing purple bikinis while her father, Peter Hillard was busy at work at the Sky Force Labs, probably busy at work on the Ranger Project.
But despite the amount of fun she was having, Katherine was troubled by what occurred after what happened two days ago…
[Location: Command Center (Flashback)
POV: Katherine Hillard]
"I can't believe that happened!" Katherine happily exclaimed as she slung her arms around Jason and Billy the moment they got into the Command Center's medical bay. "Not only did we save Zack and Kimberly but we managed to defeat the bad guys!"
Katherine could see the excitement and happiness in Jason and Billy's eyes as they laughed along. Zack and Trini may have been injured but simultaneously managed to leave the battle alive to great them heal.
As the three of them walked into the main area of the Command Center, Billy turned to her and said "It sucks that your Aura power was only a one-time deal."
Katherine nodded and said "I know. I'm just happy that I got the chance to help you guys get them back...I feel so much better about it all now."
Jason nodded in agreement and added "I know. But I wonder how you got that power anyway. I mean, you handled yourself like you had always been a ranger. It was amazing."
Katherine turned to Jason and said, "Well…During my time, I could see images of what to say to become the Aura Pink Ranger as well as show me how to summon my weapons and special attack. The rest was all me."
"You did wonderfully then," Jason said with an encouraging smile on his face, to which Katherine responded with a smile in return.
Once the three fully got in front of the large tube that Zordon resides in, a burst of electricity slammed on each side of the tube before a large crackling of electricity met within the tube and Zordon appeared but he looked displeased.
Something all three of them noticed.
"Rangers! Congratulations are in order. Thanks to the three of you, not only have Zack and Kimberly returned to us safe and sound but also damaged more of Rita's forces. I am proud of all of you," Zordon told them.
"It was all Katherine Zordon…All we did was be her backup," Billy said truthfully before he turned back to smile at Katherine, who blushed a bit from both his statement and the proud look on Billy's face.
"I agree with him," Jason said firmly. "Katherine was a great help with the Aura Ranger powers and because of her, we managed to win."
Zordon nodded and replied, "That I saw. Katherine was nothing short of a miracle and I thank you for your assistance."
"It was no problem Zordon," Katherine said with a smile on her face but when Zordon's face remained pensive, Katherine felt that there was something wrong.
And she was proven right when Zordon continued, "However…You disobeyed a direct order from me to remain here due to the dangerous circumstances. Not only that, but you used a power that could have very well destroyed you."
Katherine let a frown form on her face at his words and replied "I had to fix what I caused Zordon. Besides, the Aura Powers came to me. I didn't actively seek it out."
"How did it occur?" Zordon asked her.
"I was in the medical bay. It was right after the others left and as I sat there, I heard a voice say "Come" and "Follow me" then a pink orb appeared and I followed it until I wound up in some abandoned place and that was where I found the Aura Pink Ranger waiting for me, asking me to wield its power. I did what I had to do," Katherine said once she finished explaining.
"Katherine, you must understand the risks that you took. The Aura Rangers' powers were not meant for a human to handle. I'm looking at your form right now and I see the exhaustion in your eyes…It does not matter that the Aura power sought you out. The fact is that you could have been destroyed. That is what matters and that is why I have decided to wipe your memory," Zordon stated, which shocked the three teens.
"What?!" Katherine exclaimed in shock. "You can't just erase my memories of all of this!"
"Katherine, you disobeyed an order that I only put to protect you. This shows me that you are untrustworthy to hold the secrets of the Power Rangers," Zordon explained firmly but then his tone softened as he said "I understand why you did it…But when I state not to do something, it is because I need to keep humanity safe and unlike your friends, You aren't a ranger and at this rate, you will never be…So I must erase your memories of all of this to keep you safe and to make sure that you don't do anything reckless like this again. Please understand…"
Katherine lowered her head as Zordon spoke but that was when she heard Billy's voice shout "I refuse to let that happen!"
Katherine's head snapped up to look at the angry look on Billy's face as he faced Zordon. "Katherine disobeyed your orders but it wound up saving all of us!"
"Yeah!" Jason added on. "If not for her, we could have lost and who knows what would have happened to us!"
Billy turned back to Katherine looked her in the eyes and said, "She sacrificed it all to help us…To save us when we had no one…"
Billy then twisted his head back to Zordon and said "The least we can do for her is to keep her memory intact because while you feel she isn't trustworthy, I trust her with everything."
Katherine felt another blush form on her face when Billy spoke up for her but she felt that there was a double meaning to what he said at the end.
He really trusted her with everything?
Did that mean…
'Not the time to think about that right now,' Katherine thought to herself while forcing down her blush just enough to see Jason begin to speak.
"Besides, Adonis and Angela know about us being rangers and Adonis was our enemy at one point and hated Billy beforehand. She risked her life to save us all and that alone shows me that she will always have our back. And if Trini, Kimberly, and Zack were awake, they'd agree with me," Jason summed up with a determined look on his face.
Katherine was truly touched by Billy and Jason sticking up for her and she couldn't hide it as she said "Jason…Billy…Thank you…"
Katherine could see Zordon stare at her for a few moments and it was then she thought she saw a flicker of a proud smile appear on his face before a frown settled. "Very well. Katherine is allowed to keep her memories. However…If I catch her anywhere near any battle whatsoever, I will transport her back and erase her memories. Understood?" Zordon stated.
The three of them nodded in agreement at this, although Katherine balled up her fist in anger.
"I understand Zordon…" Katherine softly confirmed.
[Location: Halo Beach (Present Time)
POV: Katherine Hillard]
She was so close to having her memory wiped because she helped the others out and as much as she hated it, she didn't want to lose all of that.
She loved knowing that she helped the Power Rangers when all seemed lost…But had she known that she would have felt so empty after being forced out of that life, she started to have some second thoughts.
"Honey…You've been a bit distant today, what is wrong?"
Katherine's head snapped up to the worried blue eyes of her mother.
As many people had pointed out in the past, Katherine was a spitting image of her mother and if that meant that she would still be super beautiful at the age of Thirty-Nine, then that was a very good thing.
"I'm fine, Mother," Katherine responded with a tiny smile on her face. "I'm just feeling a bit off. Nothing that a little sunbathing and surfing won't continue to fix. How are things at Sky Force? I know that the two of you have been working hard on your project."
When Katherine moved to Angel Grove, her parents had told her that they were the head scientists responsible for creating their very own Power Rangers and Katherine knew that while they were making some headway, there wasn't much.
If only she could help them…But the question is, should she?
She knows who the rangers are and she was one for a time. The power she felt within that was something that she knew her parents couldn't replicate all too well but then again, considering who they were, she did believe they could.
Not to mention, the president wouldn't have wasted his time in bringing them to the country to do this in the first place had he not felt that her parents could do it.
"We are making some sort of progress but to be honest, I'm starting to lose hope," Charlotte replied with a small sigh. "I mean," She continued. "We've been going over the few tapes of their battles and their equipment seems to come out of thin air."
Katherine nodded at this and leaned back in her chair and listened to her mother as she said, "Not to mention, from the tapes we got of the two of the rangers at the mall, it seems that their suits appear instantaneously on their body and that is something that we aren't sure we can re-create..."
Katherine opened her mouth to say something when her eyes widened in shock. "Wait…Tape from the mall?" Katherine asked with a shaky voice, trying to keep calm but the paleness of her face said otherwise.
Her mom nodded and suddenly, Katherine could see her mother's eyes narrowing as she replied, "Yes…The mall…There was a video of two of the rangers transforming before fighting a knight and the knight taking them. Unfortunately, the rangers' identities are still unknown due to some electronic issues just before they changed."
Katherine let out a sigh of relief and said "Well that sucks to be hon-"
"But imagine both me and your father's faces when we saw our daughter throwing something at that large knight as well as seeing our daughter's unconscious form before the tape ended," Charlotte interrupted, causing Katherine to pale considerably.
"Mom, I can explain," Katherine started but it was then her mom raised her right hand, causing Katherine to shut her mouth before she continued.
"Katherine, while I am proud of you for standing up to that thing, we did not come here to Angel Grove to have you getting hurt."
Katherine lowered her head and said "I'm sorry it's just…The Pink Ranger…she got hurt because of me and I didn't want that thing to touch her. I won't get myself into any more trouble. I promise."
Charlotte chuckled and sipped her raspberry iced tea.
"Good…It would be a shame if we had to move back once all of this is done. I quite like it here."
[Location: Earth
POV: Armada Force Pirate Pink Ranger]
Pirate Pink was in trouble and she knew it.
Despite being in her zord, she knew that the landing of it would not be pretty so after pressing the button one last time, she braced for impact, hoping the failsafe was going to kick in.
Pirate Pink looked out the window and saw a large city coming into view.
"Oh no…Am I going to crash into that city?!" Pirate Pink asked in horror before her zord began to tip forward and that was when she noticed that right below her was a large body of open water but that water was coming closer to her at a very quick rate.
The force field was already active around her zord and Pirate Pink knew from many of these landings that the force field was going to fail upon impact so all Pirate Pink had time for was to turn to the robotic parrot and shout, "Brace for impact!" before the zord slammed into the water, causing a massive splash of water to go into the air.
As she predicted, the moment that her zord had slammed into the water, her force field deactivated upon impact, sending sparks flying around her cockpit which showered her suit and helmet but she also noticed that due to the impact, the black tinted glass in front of her was cracked in many spots, sending small but strong streams of water into her helmet.
"We must get out of here," the robotic parrot exclaimed with panic, trying to avoid the water that was slowly filling up the cockpit.
Pirate Pink knew that if she didn't do something fast, she was going to go down with her zord, something she didn't want happening but as she looked around, she saw the eject button shining brightly despite now being underneath the water.
Eyes widening in surprise, Pirate Pink quickly took Navi into her arms and said a small prayer before slamming her palm against the button and nothing happened.
Both Pirate Pink and Navi began to panic for a moment but then the roof above her opened up, causing water to quickly fill the cockpit as well as fall on top of the two not a few seconds later, the two were ejected out of the cockpit and straight up through the water.
Despite her suit taking most of the pressure off of her, Pirate Pink's body was still in pain after shooting up against the pounds of water that slammed down against her darting form to the point where when her body shot out of the water, into the air and then back in the water, she was unconscious…
But Navi was still in working order.
"I must get help," The robotic parrot exclaimed in worry, her wet body squirming against the seatbelt that was around her small body, trying and quickly succeeding in getting free from the binding.
Navi floated in the air, turned to the unconscious Pirate, and chirped, "Do not worry, I will find help!" before flying into the air, heading to the city of Angel Grove.
[Location: Halo Beach
POV: Katherine Hillard]
"Now that we finished that discussion…How are things between you and your new friends?" Charlotte asked her curiously, wondering about her daughter's continued friendship with the teens that she had met here.
Katherine opened her mouth to answer but that was when she noticed it.
A sparkle in the sky.
At first, Katherine didn't know what it was but then it started to get brighter and brighter until she could make out a few details but before she knew it, the object slammed into the waters of the beach, causing a giant wave of water to rise into the air.
Katherine quickly got up from her chair and ran to grab her mother's arm and said "We need to get out of here!"
Her mother wasted no time in grabbing her purse and stumbled a bit as she got out of her chair but as the two ran, the two got separated by the large crowd of people running from the wave of water.
Katherine struggled against the large swarm of people as she tried to reach the end of the panicked public and once she escaped from the swarm of people, Katherine leaned against a white picket fence and panted.
"That was far too close," Katherine muttered as she hunched over to breathe a bit. Just then, she heard a woman scream behind her.
Katherine turned her head and saw a robotic gold and crimson parrot avoiding the swinging purse that belonged to the woman who was trying to hit it.
"I'm sorry but I need help in rescuing my friend," the parrot said in an apologetic but panicked tone but the woman was not hearing any of it and continued to swing her purse in defense before Katherine's hand clasped against her wrist.
"I'm sorry ma'am. My creation tends to get out of control," Katherine said with a nervous but bright smile, grabbing the parrot and tucking it under her arm before running off, not bothering to hear the woman's reply to her words.
After ducking into a currently empty surfing store, Katherine placed the robotic parrot on a clothing rack and asked it "Are you ok?"
The Parrot seemed to stare at her for a good long time before its yellow eyes flickered briefly as if it blinked before it said, "Y-Yes, I am ok. Thank you for saving me from that woman."
Katherine let out a soft laugh as she hunched over and placed her hands on her knees as she replied "You needed the help and from what I overheard, you still do."Katherine's eyes then softened lightly as she said "Now….Tell me why you needed that woman's help…"
[Location: Hiramechimedes' Ship
POV: House of Gadgetry Knight Hiramechimedes]
"Sir, we have found where Pirate Pink has landed!"
Hiramechimedes turned his head to the cog that had just run up to him and nodded in approval, telling the much smaller machine to give him the coordinates to where his prey had landed, and when he saw that there was a city nearby, his eyes narrowed at the name…
Angel Groce.
But then he was told about something he hadn't expected whatsoever.
"What?! There are Rangers in this city?" Hiramechimedes screeched in shock as well as anger, eyes narrowing dangerously at the messenger, whose legs started to shake.
At first, he didn't believe the robot's words but when he managed to look at the city on a large screen, he managed to intercept an image of the Red Ranger and the Black Ranger and at the bottom of the transmission was scrolling text at the bottom of the screen said "Power Rangers implosion?!"
With a deep groan, Hiramechimedes turned off the screen and slammed his fists into the console in front of him in a sudden burst of anger.
He could not believe his misfortune.
Of all the places Pirate Pink could have landed, she had to land in the city where more Rangers resided but then he stopped as a thought entered his head.
The machine then turned his head and eyed the five silhouettes to his left in a cell, all of them chained together on the ground, none of them moving but they were all breathing, signifying that they were still alive.
His lord, King Mondo would be happy to have the pesky Pirate Rangers that had gotten in his way time and again but if he was able to capture another set of rangers.
His lord would reward him handsomely for his great deeds while also gaining the lord's respect and gaining his lord's respect as a loyal soldier of the Machine Empire was just as good as the rewards he would gain.
"...It seems we have found our enemy. All cogs, get ready to be transported to this city at once!"
[Location: Angel Grove
POV: Katherine Hillard]
"I cannot believe I'm in this mess," a very wet Katherine grumbled to herself while dragging the unconscious ranger into the alleyway as quickly as she could, making sure she wasn't seen carrying the brightly colored ranger.
"You did it," the robotic parrot chirped happily while flying towards Katherine, who gave the bird a tired smile.
"I know. It wasn't easy though. I had to practically swim back with one arm but I did it…" Katherine muttered with a sigh, as she sat the unconscious Pink on a crate that was in front of her.
"So…" Katherine started after a moment of silence, staring at the small parrot "Who is she? Who are you?"
"Well…I'm Navi," The robotic parrot chirped out, flapping her wings lightly. "I'm the official navigator of the Armada Force Pirate Rangers."
"Armada Force Pirate Rangers?" Katherine asked with a tilt of her head. She hadn't known that there were other rangers in the universe. "Yes, but the issue is that we are not of this universe. We came here from a wormhole while chasing the remnants of the Space Empire Zangyack."
"Space Empire Zangyack?" Katherine questioned with a tilt of her head.
"Yes. You see, in our universe, the Zangyack were created from the various villains that had fought every group of the Power rangers in our universe, led by the student of the late Master Vile, Emperor Ackdos Gill." The Parrot explained.
Katherine's eyes widened in shock.
"There were more rangers?!" Katherine exclaimed in shock, unable to wrap her head around this fact. Navi chirped in reply with a brief nod.
"Yes. There are currently twenty-four ranger teams in our time. With us being the twenty-fifth," Navi answered, which made Katherine blink in shock.
"How did all of this happen?" Katherine asked.
"After the last group of rangers, Megaforce ended their tenure, the Zangyack decided to attack the planet during the time of peace. Jason Lee Scott, Trini Kwan, Zack Taylor, Kimberly Ann Heart, and Billy Cranston, the original Power Rangers in our world gathered every hero that donned the title "Ranger", yourself included, and led all of them to battle the Zangyack army. The Zangyack were in control of the majority of what Earth was called 'The Legendary war.'"
"What happened next?" Katherine asked, enraptured by the story the robotic parrot was telling her.
"Well in the waning days of the war, The Phantom Ranger, the spirit of every ranger, past, present and future as well as my creator told the brave warriors to combine all of their powers into their combined weapons. It was a success. It destroyed the Zangyack invasion fleet but the price was high…All of their powers were gone...Never to come back…Or so we thought."
"Instead of their powers being lost, all of the rangers' powers were instead changed into ranger keys and spread across the universe. The Phantom Ranger decided to gather six rangers to collect them all and to stop the Space Empire."
"And it seems you guys won but how did you end up here with Pirate Pink?" Katherine asked.
"Well…After we defeated the Zangyack, Warz and Bacchus Gill, sons of the late Emperor had fled into a wormhole and we followed them. We didn't know was that they had made allies of the Machine Empire so when we destroyed them, we incurred their wrath…" Katherine could hear the sad tone in Navi's robotic voice as she then said, "So much so that they sent waves of their foot soldiers as well as their machines after us but each and every time, we defeated them but that all changed when their top general, Hiramechimedes came after us."
"Our ship, the Pirate Galleon was already damaged from our final battle with the Emperor and became even more damaged when we fought Rocket Launcher so when he managed to attack us, our ship stood no chance. All of the other Pirate Rangers were captured except for me and Pirate Pink," Navi finished with a small sigh, turning her head to the unconscious Pirate Ranger.
Katherine also glanced at the ranger but before she could do anything, the ranger began to shine a bright pink before the light faded.
Sleeping in front of Katherine was a teenage girl with flowing red hair, tan skin, a black shirt with a pink jacket and a pink shirt as well as a pink scarf wrapped around her neck.
Katherine watched as she opened her eyes, revealing her otherworldly emerald green eyes took a step back in surprise.
"W-Where am I?" The girl murmured with pain, shaking her head to try to rid it of cobwebs.
"You're awake!" Navi exclaimed happily while flying over to her and circling her head.
"Haha, Hello to you too Navi," The girl said with a small smile, catching the robotic bird in her arms and hugging her close but then she noticed Katherine and nearly shrieked in surprise. "Y-You're Katherine Hillard!"
Katherine was confused.
"That's me…" Katherine said, unsure how to proceed as the girl limped towards her.
"The last time I saw you, You were in your Zeo Ranger One uniform, saving my ass twice when I was trying to get the Zeo Ranger power…And now here you are…You are very beautiful," the girl told her.
Katherine blushed a bit at the compliment before she caught what the girl said and replied "Zeo? What in the world is Zeo? Wait, before you answer that…Who are you?"
"My name is Princess Koriand'r of the planet Tamaran but you can call me Kori…And I am The Armada Force Pirate Pink Ranger, " Kori introduced with a smile before turning to Navi to ask her something but then the two heard the distinct sound of crackling energy coming from the sky.
"What is that?" Katherine asked with a tilt of her head.
Kori paled.
Taking Katherine by the hand, Kori quickly pulled her deeper into the alleyway, praying that she wasn't seen. "Why are you pulling me away from the exit of the alley?" Katherine asked with a frown on her face. "The Cogs…" Kori responded with a wince of pain.
"I'm sorry what?" Katherine asked in confusion.
Kori stared at her for a moment and started to open her mouth to explain but something flashed on the side of them.
The two looked to the side and saw several cogs standing on the side of them. The two screamed out in surprise and leaped away while Navi flew into the air.
The two girls quickly turned around to run off but one of the cogs had managed to grab Katherine by the waist while another grabbed Kori but the two girls quickly moved out of their grasp and kicked their respective cogs in their chest before jumping back to avoid the next pair of cogs' blades.
The two ran forward and landed a solid kick to the next pair of cogs before taking their arms and flipping them onto their back but then Kori rolled forward to take out a cog's feet while Katherine leaped forward and kneed another cog's head.
Kori flipped onto her feet while Katherine landed on hers and together, the two slammed their fists into the last cog, sending it flying back into the brick wall behind it, smashing it to bits.
"You have some moves," Kori commented with a small smirk on her face.
"Thanks…It comes from years of training," Katherine replied with a grin on her face before she saw Kori wince and hold her side.
Katherine quickly grabbed Kori, slipped Kori's arm around her neck and said "Let's get out of here before they come back."
With a nod, Kori and Katherine ran off as fast as they could.
[Location: Angel Grove Docks (Flashback)
POV: Mighty Morphin Yellow Ranger]
"Come on Yellow Ranger," Swan Song said as their weapons clashed once more. "Surely you can put up a better fight than that. Then again, you could barely handle me the first time we fought."
Yellow growled and broke the clash and thrust her right arm forward to stab Swan Song in the right side of his stomach before her left arm reached over and slashed at his face.
Swan Song hissed in pain and delivered a brutal straight kick to Yellow's chest, which sent her skidding backward on her feet before he raised his left hand and set a dozen white feathers towards her rapidly.
Yellow rolled to the side to avoid the stream of feathers but what she didn't expect was for Swan Song to dash to the same side she had rolled to and shoot out another stream of feathers, which managed to hit her, causing sparks to fly from her body as the razor-sharp feathers sliced across her.
Yellow fell to her knees in pain as Swan Song lifted his right hand and laughed boisterously before he said "You have definitely grown weaker since our bout two weeks ago. And to think, I went through all that trouble to study you and him."
"Yes me," Swan Song said with a bow. "It was so easy to play you and your pathetic friend against one another. All I had to do was change myself to him and lock him away and it was all over from there."
Yellow's fist shook in rage as she stood there in silence as Swan Song laughed once again. "You were so pathetic that day! You were my puppet and you played your part well. Because of you and your dislike of the Black Ranger, you Trini Kwan nearly killed your own teammate!"
Swan Song took a step forward and asked "Tell me something Trini…How close were you to killing him? How close were you to killing an innocent warrior for your enemy? Do you feel pathetic in knowing how easily you played into my plan?"
Swan Song leaned back with his right hand on his hip, returning back to his original form with a flash of black feathers as he stared at Yellow and said, "Such a silly human."
[Location: Command Center - Medical Bay (Present Time)
POV: Trini Kwan]
Trini woke up with a gasp as she rose from the bed she was lying on sharply before she panted hard.
A dream?
A nightmare?
No…It was reality.
"Do you feel pathetic in knowing how easily you played into my plan?" Swan Song's voice echoed within her head as continued to pant before her panting evened out.
"You're awake," Jason's voice said from her left, causing her to turn around to see him sitting in the chair next to her bed. "I'm glad. You've been unconscious since our battle with Swan Song and Death Rose."
"A-And when was…" Trini drifted off when Jason held up two fingers, which made her eyes widen in shock. "Two days…I was out for two days?" Trini questioned in surprise.
"Yeah. You, Zack, and Kimberly have been out for the last two days. You're the only one that has woken up so far," Jason explained as he nodded his head at her direction while looking behind her, which made Trini turn around to see Kimberly and Zack floating in the healing tank.
"I told your mom and their parents that you guys were staying with me for a few nights for a sleepover. They believed it instantly," Jason said, explaining to Trini the next question that she was going to ask.
Trini's eyes lingered on Zack and Kimberly's forms as Jason said "It was thanks to Katherine that we managed to save them. She managed to find the power from Zordon's past power ranger. She really came once Violent Knight knocked you out."
Trini chuckled at this knowledge and said "You knew exactly what I was going to ask before I even had to ask them…"
"I do know you Trini," Jason replied serious look on his face before he added, "Which is why I can't understand any of what has happened with you so far."
Trini looked to the side and murmured "What are you talking about?"
"This…Thing between you and Zack," Jason responded with a firm tone in his voice. "You know that I don't want to pry into your business but whatever is going on, it's caused a lot of damage to our team."
Trini watched as Jason stood up from the chair and walked away from the bed he said, "From the first appearance of Swan Song to Zack and Kimberly being kidnapped and to me fighting Zack, all of these came about because of your problem with him. We can't give Rita more ammunition to tear this team apart. We're already at a disadvantage because of there being a limited amount of us but we don't need her to get inside our heads like this."
Trini let a frown appear on her face at Jason's words and responded, "What happened between me and Zack is between him and I. It doesn't involve any of you."
"And yet we are involved Trinity! I had to face the possibility of killing my best friend!" Jason snapped, causing Trini to look at him in surprise. "Hell, it's not even something between us anymore. The entire world is involved now!"
'H-He called me by my full name…He's never done that before…' Trini thought to herself in surprise.
"When we accepted Zordon's call to become rangers, any pettiness died. We are the only defense that Earth has against Rita's forces and when we are at odds with one another, Rita can take advantage, which she has! She has taken advantage of your issues with Zack which has led to where we are now. Down two rangers…"
Trini watched as Jason shut his eyes and took several deep breaths as if to calm himself down. After a few moments, Jason opened his eyes and said "When he wakes up, you and Zack will tell us what happened so we can fix it and become a cohesive unit once more because, at this rate, Rita will win and take over Earth…So you two will tell us…Am I understood?" Jason finished.
Trini could only stare at Jason with a stunned expression on her face. In all of her years of knowing him, Jason and never yelled or given orders before, and yet this was the moment he decided to do it.
"W-Wow…" Trini breathed with an air of awe. "You sound like a real leader…"
Jason's frown immediately deepened by this and denied, "I'm no leader Trini."
"And yet you just sounded like one…I gotta say, I'm impressed," Trini said with a small chuckle while Jason chuckled as well.
Just then, Billy came rushing into the room and said "Jason, Zordon needs u-" Trini watched a large smile appear on Billy's face before Trini found herself being hugged by the ranger, which made Trini smile and return his hug.
"I'm glad to see that you are awake," Billy said with a bright smile on his face, which Trini returned.
"I'm glad to be awake," Trini said softly before she asked, "What did Zordon need?"
The smile on Billy's face quickly died, revealing a worried look. "These robots are roaming the city. Zordon and Alpha just saw Katherine and some other girl fighting them off with some robotic parrot," Billy divulged.
Trini and Jason looked at each other in surprise before they looked back at Billy and in unison, the two exclaimed, "Say that again?!"
[Location: Command Center
POV: General]
Jason, Trini, and Billy watched the screen in shock.
Katherine had not only gotten into this strange situation but now she was battling these machines while hanging on to a girl that they had never seen before.
"Those are the foot soldiers of the Machine Empire…This is most troubling," Zordon said to the three rangers watching the viewing globe.
"On the scale of 1-10…How bad are they?" Trini asked Zordon as she turned around to face him, with Jason and Billy following her lead.
"You must destroy every inch of them in battle. Otherwise, they can rebuild themselves," Zordon responded.
"So 10 basically," Jason summarized before he said, "We need to help Katherine out there before she gets overtaken by them."
Trini and Billy nodded but just as they were going to get ready, they heard a familiar voice playfully ask, "So you going to leave without us?"
The three turned to the entrance of the medical bay to see Zack and Kimberly standing in front of the entrance.
Billy and Jason's eyes quickly widened in surprise before the two quickly jogged to their two newly awakened friends while Trini took a step forward before she stopped and lowered her gaze.
Billy quickly hugged Kimberly, which made her squeal happily while Jason and Zack clasped hands and got into a brief hug.
The sets of two quickly pulled away before they turned to Trini. Trini looked up at the four but without warning, Zack smiled and said "Get in on this group hug action."
"A-Are you sure?" Trini asked with an uncharacteristic stammer.
"You're our friend," Kimberly said with a smile.
Trini smiled and quickly ran towards the four and once she met, the five of them engaged in a group hug. They knew that there were at a lot of issues to handle but right now, they were just glad they were a whole unit once again.
Zordon smiled softly at this reunion and said, "Welcome back to our side Zachary…Kimberly. You both have been missed terribly."
"Thanks Zordon. It's good to be back," Zack said with a smile.
"So, what did we miss?" Kimberly asked with a glowing smile on her face.
"Quite a bit…But there is no time to explain. We need to help Katherine," Billy said with a worried frown on his face.
Zack and Kimberly looked at each other with looks of confusion on their faces before they both said "What's going on?"
[Location: Abandoned Warehouse
POV: Katherine Hillard]
With a crash, Katherine and Kori jumped into the window of an abandoned warehouse and rolled to the ground, and moments later, several Cogs came bursting through the wall with robotic wailing.
The two had been running and fighting for the past twenty minutes but the Cogs kept coming and with Kori injured, they were reaching the end of their rope.
Katherine held Kori tight as the two of them hopped over a bunch of steel canisters while simultaneously kicking them backward, causing them to hit two Cogs in the chest, making them fall to the ground.
The second the two landed, the two ran up the rather rickety steel stairs but as the two went up, two cogs crashed through the wall in front of them. Katherine let go of Kori briefly and quickly landed a kidney blow to one Cog that had engaged her first before she kicked him off the stairs.
The second Cog aimed a kick at her head but Katherine ducked it and pushed it off the stairs as well before she grabbed Kori and quickly ran up the rest of the way as she grumbled, "These damn things keep coming."
"They always do," Kori whispered with a haunted tone in her voice, something Katherine managed to catch despite the chaos around her but she didn't comment on it.
Instead, Katherine helped Kori into an abandoned room in the warehouse and said "We need to stop them somehow…And with you injured and unable to morph, we'll get creamed."
Kori nodded and leaned her head back against the wall she was leaning against. Kori winced in pain as she pulled out her Pirate-Mobile and looked at it sadly as she said, "You're right…I am unable to morph but you…Can morph."
Katherine sighed and muttered, "I can't either. I'm no ranger…"
Kori shook her head with a smile on her face and held the mobile out to Katherine as the sounds of windows being broken were heard faintly in the background.
Katherine looked at the Pirate-Mobile and whispered, "Is this…?"
Kori grinned tiredly and pulled out a small ranger key that looked like a miniature version of Kori's ranger uniform. "Even though you aren't a ranger yet…You have the heart of one…So I want you to use this while I am injured."
Katherine was speechless at Kori's words and could only look at the mobile in the girl's hands.
"You put the ranger key into the lock on the top of the mobile…After that, say "Armada Force: Set Sail," Kori explained with a small smile on her face.
"Armada Force: Set Sail…" Katherine whispered in awe as she took the Mobile with awe. Once again, she was being put as a Pink Ranger.
"I know…" Kori said with a smile on her face. "It's a lot to deal with but you'll catch on quickly."
With a deep breath, Katherine stood up and glanced at the Pirate Mobile in her hand once more and said, "Then I better get to it!" Katherine twirled the ranger key in her hand before she placed it in the lock on the mobile and said "Armada Force: Set Sail!"
[Morphing Grid
Katherine Hillard]
(Theme of Pirate Morph - The King of Fighters 2002 UM – Destiny)
Appearing in a dimension with pink starlight behind her, Katherine was floating with her naked body glowing a bright white.
Suddenly, a black "V" slammed into Katherine's chest with a black flash, forming her wearing her black spandex as well as her boots and gloves.
Then another pink "V" slammed into her with a flash of pink which formed her pink jacket and skirt. Another pink "X" slammed into her head with a pink flash, forming her helmet middle of it.
A final pink "X" slammed into her body and with a pink flash, the pirate force insignia was etched into the middle of her chest and her helmet.
[Location: Abandoned Warehouse
POV: Armada Force Pirate Pink Ranger]
Pirate Pink stood in full uniform in front of Kori, pink energy flowing from her body as Pirate touched the pirate insignia on her chest before she said "Whoa…This is intense…More intense than changing into Aura Pink."
"Wow, that suit looks wonderful on you," Kori said with a smile on her face. Pirate Pink turned around and gave her a thumbs up.
"Stay put. I'll take care of them!" Pirate Pink exclaimed before she ran out of the office but the minute Pirate Pink ran out however, she was immediately blocked by two Cogs.
Pirate Pink quickly ducked the swing of the first Cog's sword and quickly pulled out the Pirate Sabre and slashed it twice in the chest before bringing the Cog close to block a sword strike that was aimed at her by the second Cog.
Pirate Pink kicked the two Cogs away before pulling out the Pirate pistol and firing at them, causing them to explode.
Pirate Pink then saw multiple Cogs running up the stairs and she smirked beneath her helmet before she twirled the sword and charged towards them.
Pirate Pink leaped into the air and slammed her knee into the first Cog, sending the Cog falling into its brethren.
Pirate Pink leaped off the chest of the first Cog, flipped backward onto the stairs, and used her Pirate revolver to shoot at the Cogs that were stilling on their feet.
The Cogs that were hit flew backward into the wall behind them, exploding upon impact while the ones lying on the stairs got back to their feet to attack Pirate Pink but the ranger swung over the rusty steel banister beside the stairs before she leaped off and landed on a wooden crate.
"Over here!" Pirate Pink shouted at the Cogs on the stairs.
The Cogs quickly leapt over the banister but all of them fell straight to the ground. Pirate Pink laughed at this before she pulled out her Pirate Sabre and leaped down to engage them, making sure to slice off the head of one of the Cogs as she landed.
Pirate Pink quickly rose to her feet and sliced two Cogs in the chest before blocking their weapon with one of her own. "Tsk, Tsk," Pirate Pink teased before she kicked the Cog away and blasted it in the head with her Pirate revolver.
Pirate Pink ducked the arms of the two Cogs in front of her, sliced the arm off of one, and blasted a hole into the torso of the other before she turned around and looked at the remaining Cogs with a smirk on her face.
"Well? Weren't you going to throw down with me?" Pirate Pink taunted, her Australian accent becoming more pronounced. "Come at me then, you bloody wusses. I'll send you back to your mum."
Just then, she heard clapping coming from the entrance of the warehouse, which caused her head to snap up and there she saw a large, bulky silver robot with brass pipes and machine parts on its body with five light bulbs on its head and red eyes standing in front of five teens.
The first person she saw was a pale white teenager with wild orange hair with shining green eyes and he was wearing a white t-shirt with a silver-grey vest on top of the shirt with a white scarf around his neck along with a pair of black pants and white shoes.
The second person she saw was a bald black teenage boy with black eyes. He was wearing a blue jacket with a black shirt beneath it, black pants and brown boots, and dark blue and silver goggles that hung from around his neck.
The third person she saw was a white teenage boy with dark forest green hair that nearly hid his dark green eyes. He was wearing a black tank top, white wrap around his wrists and hands, a baggy pair of pants that was attached to his unzipped green jumpsuit which was bunched up around his waist, and a pair of black shoes.
The fourth person was a surprisingly pale white teenage girl with dark purple hair that was tied in a ponytail with striking purple eyes. She wore a yellow long-sleeved shirt with the shoulders ripped up in the front intentionally, a blue jean skirt, and a pair of yellow sneakers.
The last person she saw was a white teenager with smooth black hair that fell over his cloudy blue eyes. He was wearing a red jacket with gold straps on each side of the jacket, a white button-down shirt beneath it, a black vest, baggy black pants, and red sneakers.
But all of them had a metal collar around their necks, that glowed dark red.
"Who are they?" Pirate Pink asked softly before she noticed that in each of their hands was a Pirate Mobile.
The same one Kori had given to her…
Was that her team?
The robot took a step forward and said "Bravo. You put on such a great show but now it's time for you to join us, Pirate Pink."
Pirate Pink scoffed and pointed at the machine and asked "Who in hell are you?"
The robot chuckled pompously and replied, "I am the mighty Hiramechimedes and as I said, it is time for you to join your team."
"And if I refuse?" Pirate Pink asked with a sneer.
Hiramechimedes chuckled ominously and replied, "Then I will make you."
"Then make me," Pirate Pink shouted.
"Very well…" Hiramechimedes said as he raised his right arm and snapped his fingers, which caused the rangers behind him to instantly raise their Pirate Mobiles. Wordlessly, the five placed their ranger keys into the mobile, and with a flash of red, green, blue, yellow, and silver light, each of the teens was now in their ranger uniform.
While the Red, Blue, Green, and Yellow Pirate Rangers' had suits similar to Pirate Pink with the differences being in their colors, along with no skirts for the male rangers, Pirate Silver's was slightly different.
Instead of the normal helmets that the four other rangers had, his helmet was in the shape of a bike rider's helmet with black on the top with the silver outline of an anchor on the top of the helmet while the bottom of his helmet was silver and his visor was gold in color and was in the shape of glasses.
But the rest of his uniform was similar to that of his team, with a silver jacket and silver boots with the pirate ranger insignia in the middle of his chest.
"Rangers…" Hiramechimedes said softly. "Bring her to me."
[Location: Abandoned Warehouse
POV: Princess Koriand'r of Tamaran]
Kori was afraid.
The minute she heard the voice of Hiramechimedes and his command to her team, she knew that Pirate Pink would get into a very dicey situation. She had to find a way to tell her about the main abilities of the Pirate Force Rangers.
But how?
Kori lifted herself out of the ground and limped towards the large window where she saw Pirate Pink and her team, fully morphed and instantly found her eyes locked on the collars around their necks.
Those collars…
The only way those collars could be destroyed is by destroying the controller…But how could she even get near it?
But the better question was…Would she even survive the encounter with the Armada Force Rangers led by the villain, Hiramechimedes?
[Location: Abandoned Warehouse
POV: Armada Force Pirate Pink Ranger]
Pirate Pink's eyes were focused on the five rangers that stood behind the large machine as beads of sweat fell down her hidden face. She could face monsters and the Cogs easily but facing another ranger was something she was unfamiliar with.
She could only hope that this would go as seamless as possible.
Pirate Yellow and Pirate Green quickly dashed towards Pirate Pink, who immediately slid off the crate she sat on. Once she landed on her feet, Pirate Green came from her left with a jab while Pirate Yellow came from her right with a roundhouse kick.
Pirate Pink used her right forearm to block the roundhouse kick while her leg blocked the fist. Seconds later, the crate in front of her exploded and Pirate Blue appeared in her vision moments before she was taken off of her feet and rammed into a wooden crate, which caused her to burst through it and slam into the ground.
Pirate Pink quickly got back to her feet and quickly dodged the rapid fists of Pirates Green and Yellow before the two suddenly jumped to the side, only to show Pirate Silver's weapon, the Pirate Trident, lunging straight towards her head.
Pirate Pink fell onto her back to avoid it and quickly rolled to the left to avoid the trident slamming down upon her but when she flipped to her feet, Captain Red was in the air with his right arm cocked back.
With a hard punch delivered by the leader of the Pirate Rangers, Pirate Pink was sent soaring backward until she slammed against the cement wall and that was when Pirate Blue came out of nowhere and tackled Pirate Pink so hard, that the two of them crashed through the cement wall and into a larger area in the warehouse.
The two rangers slammed into the ground and after several moments of stillness, Pirate Blue rolled off of Pirate Pink's body and sat up on one knee while Pirate Pink remained on the ground.
Pirate Blue got on his feet, walked towards Pirate Pink, and reached down to grab her. Pirate Pink immediately kicked the ranger in the stomach and as he bent forward, she then used both feet to kick the ranger in his face, sending Pirate Blue on his back.
Pirate Pink rolled to her stomach and got onto her feet and was immediately met with Pirate Silver, who lunged his trident towards her twice but Pirate Pink ducked the first lunge and blocked the second lunge with her sabre.
Just then, Pirate Yellow vaulted over Pirate Silver and kicked Pirate Pink in the face, sending her flying backward where she then slammed into the ground as she got up, she saw that the five rangers were standing side by side, all of them with the Pirate revolvers in their hands.
Pirate Pink's eyes went wide before she jumped onto a large box that sat next to her before she launched herself high into the air to avoid the beams of lasers that nearly struck her.
Pirate Pink landed on the edge of a steel landing and jumped over the railing but as she did, Pirate Yellow leaped from the ground and landed in front of her. Pirate Pink immediately threw a left jab at the ranger but Pirate Yellow leaned back to avoid it before rushing forward and slamming her right fist into her side.
Pirate Pink hunched over in pain but overextended her hunched form to land a solid right hook to her opponent's head, causing the ranger to land on one knee before she grabbed the railing to lift her off the ground to kick Pirate Yellow in the face, sending them both on the ground.
Pirate Pink flipped to her feet and turned around before she had to duck the swing of Pirate Silver's trident but she was not quick enough to dodge the strike to her back from his left leg, which sent her smashing/breaking through the thin metal railing and down towards another steel landing.
Pirate Pink rose to her feet just as Pirate Silver landed in front of her and Pirate Yellow landed behind her, which caused her to leap off the landing and onto the railing on the side of it, turn her body around, and jump off of it while clotheslining the other two rangers, sending all three of them to fall to the landing below them with a crash.
"Well...That hurt," Pirate Pink groaned out as she rose to her feet and leaned backward on the railing while holding the left side of her body, her right eye closed as she winced. She must have hurt something when she fell.
Pirate Pink saw the other three Pirate Rangers running towards her from a distance and that caused her to fall backward off of the landing to land on another landing where she quickly ran to the left while avoiding the red beams of energy from Captain Red's Pirate revolver.
But as she leaped onto the right railing and jumped to another landing, Pirate Green came out of nowhere and clotheslined her in mid-air, sending both of them to a lower landing, where the two slammed onto the steel landing hard.
Pirate Pink rolled to her feet as Pirate Green flipped to his and when the two were up on their feet, Pirate Pink quickly dodged the first two jabs Pirate Green tried to land on her before she jumped up and kneed him beneath the chin, causing him to stumble back.
Pirate Pink then landed on the ground and swept her right leg against his two legs hard enough to send him falling and once he hit the ground, Pirate Pink hopped up and rammed her elbow into his head.
Pirate Pink rolled onto Pirate Green and then rolled onto her feet but was punched hard in the face by Captain Red before she was kicked twice by him on the left side of her torso, causing the pain she was already feeling to grow before he pulled her close and rammed his head against hers hard, making her stumble back.
Unfortunately for Pirate Pink, she stumbled back into the chest of Pirate Green, who swiftly wrapped his arms around her waist and lifted her off the ground, bent backward, and slammed her upper back onto the steel landing hard.
She then felt him lift her off the ground to deliver another slam but as he lifted her, she wrapped an arm around his head and forced herself to the ground and tossed him to the ground in front of her but as she loosened her hold, she felt Captain Red lift her and launch her off the landing.
As she fell off, she watched as Pirate Blue ran up five empty metal crates, each a different size, and leaped off of it towards her and before she knew it, all of the breath left her lungs as Pirate Blue's shoulder rammed itself against her stomach and his arms wrapped around her waist.
Then pain.
That was the only thing she felt when her body crashed through the steel crates that were unfortunately beneath her and it was the thing that blinded her when she felt the energy around her explode like a nuclear bomb.
The pain went off the charts as it felt like her very soul was being ripped apart by the unnatural demorphing and the energy she had felt mere moments before was now sapped from her body, along with her voice due to her scream of pure agony.
She couldn't think.
She couldn't see.
She couldn't breathe.
She could feel the suit around her evaporate into the energy that swirled around her and Pirate Blue
By the time this storm of agony had ended, Katherine found herself looking up at the ceiling…At the bottom of a medium-sized crater that was created by her and Pirate Blue, she demorphed.
Katherine tried to move but the pain was so agonizing, it caused her to cry out in pain instead. "So that's how that feels…" Katherine muttered weakly as she did her best to lift her body off of the ground beneath her.
"Didn't expect to feel like someone ripping my soul apart…" Katherine finished as she laid back down, unable to fully lean up.
She looked at the opponent in front of her and watched helplessly as he walked towards her, albeit on shaky legs, and as much as she tried, she was just so weak…She couldn't stop him from doing anything now.
She felt him gingerly pick her up off the ground and held her in his arms before he began to walk out of the crater and it was then she fell unconscious.
[Location: Abandoned Warehouse
POV: Princess Koriand'r of Tamaran]
Kori was horrified.
She knew that Katherine couldn't handle her team on her own but seeing her team being so vicious to take her down was sickening seeing her tackled in mid-air by Pirate Blue only for the two of them to be sent into several metal crates followed by an explosion of Pink energy caused her to shriek in fear.
She had to get down there.
She had to save Katherine before she was killed!
Kori limped to the door and began to try and make her way out of it but she fell to the ground in pain.
She was still too banged up to move.
"Damn it," Kori hissed out in agony.
Katherine was going to die and it was all her fault!
Just then, she saw a blue flash come from behind her and when she turned around, she saw the Mighty Morphin Blue Ranger in front of her.
Kori was speechless.
The first Blue Ranger was standing right before her. She watched as he leaned down and said "You were the one with Katherine. You look injured…Can you move?"
Wordlessly, Kori shook her head.
The ranger nodded and said "Stay here and remain silent. When this is all over, I will get you out of here, ok?"
Kori nodded and without any fanfare, Blue walked out of the other door and ran down the steel landing before he leaped down.
[Location: Abandoned Warehouse
POV: House of Gadgetry Knight Hiramechimedes]
Hiramechimedes was pleased as he walked up to the location where the explosion of pink energy had come from.
Taking control of these rangers was nothing short of a marvelous idea.
Hiramechimedes could see that four of the five rangers he had under his command had now reached his side just as he got to the medium-sized crater where Pirate Blue came walking out with the unconscious ranger in his arms.
Hiramechimedes let out a victorious laugh as Pirate Blue laid Katherine's unconscious form in front of him and said "Finally…All of the Pirate Force Rangers will be under my control…" Hiramechimedes then pulled out a silver collar, the same ones that were around the necks of the five rangers near him, and began to lean down to put it on her neck but without warning, a beam of energy destroyed it, causing him to hiss in pain.
"Don't you dare touch her!" An unfamiliar voice rang out and as he turned around, he saw them.
The Power Rangers protected this city, with the Black Ranger holding the gun that had shot at him.
"More rangers…I should have known you all would appear sooner or later…You all are such a predictable bunch," Hiramechimedes hissed out with an angry tone.
He watched as the four rangers skidded to a stop while the Black Ranger responded with "When it comes to world-ruining assholes such as yourself, you should know we would appear to stop your plans."
"How crude," Hiramechimedes responded as he placed his wounded hand behind his back. "But that is what you Earthlings are…Crude. But even crude beings like yourselves should understand the precarious position you are i-"
Without warning, he had been struck in the face by the knee of the Blue Ranger, who appeared from above.
Hiramechimedes was sent flying into the crater due to the strike but as he went down, he shouted, "Do not let these rangers get her!"
[Location: Abandoned Warehouse
POV: General]
Blue landed on the ground and reached down to grab Katherine but was immediately grabbed by Pirate Blue and swung over the ranger's shoulder and onto the ground on his back. Blue instantly growled and flipped back to his feet before simultaneously leaping up and twisting his bod to kick Pirate Blue in the chest, forcing the latter to release his arm while sending them both to the ground.
Blue flipped to his feet and reached in to grab Katherine's unconscious body again but was stopped when Pirates Green and Yellow grabbed his shoulders and forced him to the ground before the two of them leaped into the air and landed with their elbows slamming into Blue's chest, causing sparks to fly from his chest.
Seeing their friend in danger, the four rangers dashed forward towards the other rangers.
Yellow and Black instantly tackled Pirate Yellow and Green off of Blue while Pink slammed her elbow against the head of Pirate Silver and finally, Red punching Pirate Red in the face.
And thus, the battle between the two ranger teams began.
Captain Blues: And that is the first episode of this crossover. So the Armada Force is NOT based on Power Rangers: Super Mega Force, it's based off of Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger and yes, these are the Teen Titans (The Animated Versions of course)
