Chapter 1: Cenozoic Era

(P.O.V. General)

The day starts off in the throne room like every other day with the Elders of Eltar giving out for them being a mix of races from many planets like Aquitar that are his friends while he has to become King of Eltar in the future that is always on Zorin's mind.

(Zordon ''Zorin'' P.O.V.)

I hate being a prince sometimes. So much pressure has been put on me since the day I was born and I never feel like I can have any kind of privacy. I love my people dearly but it can be hard to keep up with the level of commitment required to be the prince of such a powerful planet. Luckily, there are plenty of people within my family who understand how I feel and help me through many hard times. The time will come soon where I shall ascend to the throne and become the King of Eltar and I must be prepared for everything that comes my way. While the feelings of constant pressure to be an excellent king combined with never having any form of privacy as well as needing to be always committed to my work will not only remain but be amplified ten-fold, the love I have for my people and my planet shall keep me going no matter what. As the only heir to the Eltarian throne, I must keep a close eye on everyone around me to ensure that my power remains in the hands of those who are not only worthy of it but are also loyal to the people of Eltar. I do not trust the

Supreme Guardian Zartus at all, even if everyone else within the royal family and the royal guard trusts him. I have seen his willingness to defend the people of Eltar erode as his lust for power has grown stronger. If anyone were to turn against the Royal Family of Eltar, it would likely be him.

(Zartus's P.O.V.)

That little prince needs to go as soon as possible as he is far too loyal to his own people to rule an empire. He needs a harsh beating to show him the reality of ruling over a planet and an empire. Sitting back and vowing to only serve your people will get you nowhere. Conquest is the most important part of being an emperor and he is too much of a coward to even consider conquering other worlds and systems. I've heard rumours of him asking his parents if he could disband the Eltarian Empire and let the other worlds be free. The only person on Eltar worthy of continuing this great empire is me and I'm getting closer to becoming the emperor every single day because the Royal Family of Eltar are too dense to understand my true intentions and The Elders of Eltar are far too old and blind to have any power over the Eltarian Empire. There is currently nobody else on this planet worthy of possessing all of this power. I take just one look over at Delphine Shi who is that prince's beloved ninja fish lady and all I can think about is how much I hate her as well as her teammates who are all former Yokai and useless wastes of matter like the brother of that wereshark Yokai that she has no right to live with due to him being cursed. All I can see from Prince Zordon's allies are a team of children who don't know what it means to have power and a group of creatures that are not the right species to have any right to freedom. Once I become emperor, the Royal Family, the Elders and Zordon's friends will be the first to be executed.

(Spa'ark's P.O.V.)
Spa'ark looks at himself, knowing the monster that he will become in the future as the Death Ranger as he hears you will become nothing more than dust, done in by the reminds of Zeon the legendary warrior. Who knows if he was an Eltarian at all or his people took his story and turned him into an Eltarian to have a legendary warrior of their own? Haza then reminds Spa'ark that they have to leave now because they have to fulfil their duties as the Omega Rangers. He knows that if that plan fails, he can make the teenage prince disappear and replace him with a fake or kill off his family. Spa'ark cannot go near the Elders who are basically all of the greatest minds in Eltar's history. Unknown to anyone, Kimberly Ann Rose Hart, aka the Pink Ranger, is there as the Pink Drakkon Ranger. She is keeping herself hidden by wearing a mask and is well aware of the monster that he is while she is with the Universe Gamma White Tiger Power Coin which is forbidden. She is not talking and laying low, knowing that Zorin is going to become more than he is now just like the allies he will make as she helps Zorin escape Eltar and get to Earth as Zorin will remember her even if she does not remember him. Kimberly knows that she is likely going to make changes as she hopes that maybe they can save him from becoming The Vessel in order to push back Dark Specter's plans in the Darkest Hour meaning having to become a noble to get close to the crown prince as he already holds hatred for that new girl who has become a friend of the prince who allies himself with the rebels to the rule of the current Eltarian Emperor.

(Zordon ''Zorin'' P.O.V.)

I've been looking at a lot of young women who are my age because I need to pick one but I know where my heart is. I know who I truly have feelings for. I don't really approve of the system the Royal Family traditionally has where they choose other royal or aristocratic women or men for their princes or princesses to marry. When I become king, I want to allow future Princes, Kings, Princesses and Queens to be able to marry who they truly love rather than forcing them to marry someone based on their status. That will be just one of many reforms I want to make as King of Eltar. Recently, I have been seeing this girl in a pink and black dress with a mask, dark skin and black hair with brown eyes who I first met at my most recent birthday party being Kimberly who got lost in the Grid not long after she killed Coinless Tommy who was under Dark Specter's control as the Pink Drakkon Ranger. I cannot say that I know who I want to spend the rest of my life with but Delphine is my best friend in the world and the leader of her planet after her great grandfather who was the first White Ranger passed away but it was more powerful before they were broken into Red, Blue, Yellow and Black that were given to redeemed Yokai.

(Zartus's P.O.V.)

I hate having to look over at that unknown masked woman in the pink and black dress with the mask that hides her face who has been spending a lot of time with the prince who is trying to leave his birthday party because he is not enjoying having to wear a mask to hide who he really is. He wants to talk with her but knows that I am always watching him like a hawk. Who even is that girl as she is not from any known planets but she leaves easily with no trouble like she was never there.

Many years have passed and Zordon is now 16 years old and close to becoming the King of Eltar after his time as the Bronze Guardian of Eltar that was forced onto him by his father in order to have him learn how the military works before he becomes the Red Ranger and King of Eltar.

(Zordon ''Zorin'' P.O.V.)

I cannot believe my luck, I am finally going to become king but the situation I'm in is leaving me very worried but I always remind myself that the future's not set in stone with the likes of Zartus and the Elders of Eltar watching my every move as a Prince and a Red Ranger. I want to make allies with the Kingdom of Light but the Elders refuse it out of fear of the Ultras and I don't not know why or why they do not want me being friends with Ritari Pulsa who I usually call Rita as Ritari will never betray anyone she is friends with, especially me. I want to give her an opportunity that many others will never have. I recall a young man my age who was kicked from school for a forbidden morph into a white ranger because he was fated to be a red ranger as I also remember the headmaster's (Zordon) child leaving the school with me to form our own team of Rangers that will not only defend the people of Eltar but many other planets as well. The Elders do not want me talking with him as his name was Saba but he was known to his friends as Shu of the Fang Tribe who was a prince like myself but lost everything to The Gorma Empire, forcing him into exile and making him want payback. Zordon "Zorin" has no idea that the same thing is going to happen with him that will ignite a war that will kill Zartus and bring about the future Mighty Morphin Power Rangers and Omega Rangers as Kimberly has become his best friend who he has feelings for that will remain from the day she returns to the time she found making him want to found her at all costs and Barza knows that Kimberly is from a future as Lami, real name Scorpina, does too as they see Kimberly leave as there is the Zordon of Eltar who stopped Rita Repulsa on Earth in the time before Zorin or Zordon was born and was trapped for a long time and became an energy being without a physical body before Alpha 1 existed and he gets Alpha 4, later Alpha 5, after Zorin and co die in battle against Atir Vile.

Kimberly's P.O.V.

Zartus cannot be trusted with power at all but I'm not really any better because I'm currently holding the Universe Gamma White Power Coin which is forbidden and that Eltarian is likely going be killed because of what I've done. She then realised that the Red Ranger who her friend Jason, better known as Jay, hit into space was on their side, well kind of. She wanted the Zeo Crystal likely to get her long dead friend back and I know that I would do the same for any of my friends like Trina who is nothing now as I have held onto the remains of the Eltarian coin that Trina used before her friend Trin, better known as Trini, came into the team and became the Red Fire Omega Ranger. She truly loved Red so it's right that she became the Red Ranger but she is having some trouble being the leader of a team because she has never done it before. She is wearing a mask that the alien prince is so bored with just like everything here and wearing the mask reminds her of Eiyū Tatsumi, her Japanese friend, who is a bit like that alien but he reminds her of the Vessel that they are dealing with. Zorin asked if I wanted to dance. I felt a bit shy about it because I have never danced before because my homecoming was ruined by a Putty Infiltrator being my ex boyfriend, well 2nd ex boyfriend, after the porn prank which I admit was not my best idea and than it was ruined by Rita, well the cranky old witch from Earth, and her son Bubba. I really hope nothing ruins this dance and nothing like The Arbiter shows up. He has been a massive pain in the ass for what, like four years now because he sees them and every other ranger. We are far from unworthy. In fact, we are more than worthy enough to be Power Rangers. I wonder what the Ranger who became The Arbiter would think of them before Drakkon came along and ruined everything as he was fated to die saving the world that becomes Earth. Right now, I'm just wondering where the hell is Cayden at this time when they need him most to help with stopping Dark Specter and his army of Corrupted Power Rangers. He's likely off somewhere in the timeline or in the Morphin Grid or after The Arbiter for all the times he has been off on his revenge mission. Then again, if I had the power to go anywhere in time using the Morphin Grid, I would have stopped my parents from getting a divorce but I wouldn't do that because it could cause damage to the timeline and besides, I have to found my way home to the others and give them the message about a Power Ranger who cannot be corrupted by the embodiment of Dark Morphin Grid energy that is Dark Specter. I know that Zedd is likely not going to remain a major threat for much longer because Zophram will become Lord Zedd in the future. I have been seeing someone else with Zedd recently with the name Highlord Zerminius. I really hope me being here doesn't change anything about the history I know. Zophram asked me if I wanted anything but I told him that I'm all good for now. Unbeknownst to the others, Zophram is still alive unlike the retellings of the story they have heard where something made him into Lord Zedd. Sometimes I wish all of this never happened and that I could have kept being an innocent valley girl who liked shopping with her friends but then I remind myself that would have been boring.

Zophram's P.O.V.

All I want right now is for Zordon to be happy as the young prince lost both his parents to the forces of Dark Specter, leaving him to be raised by the Elders before he lost them as well. His adoptive family then raised him outside the empire with few friends, really just 1 friend, with him being a bookworm besides Delphine who sometimes comes over to hang out with Zordon when he needs it most. Zordon cherishes the time he spends with Delphine just as much as his time he spends with his new family. Zordon has been getting help because of all the nightmares he has about losing his family and his planet and I am so grateful to see him doing better but he is still not happy most of the time. He might never be happy again for all I know. All I can do for now is hope that Zordon can live a happy life where he doesn't have to worry about demonic spirits or tyrannical dictators trying to kill him and those close to him.

On a unknown planet to Eltar that will become known as Terra or better known as Earth after a bloody battle, Kimberly has returned to the future.

Zordon's and Atir/Rita's P.O.V,

I'm sorry..., I'm sorry… a badly beaten Red Ranger tells the Yellow Ranger of his team as she gives him her Power Coin before she dies. Zordon pulls himself through the mud knowing that his life is going to end soon just like the rest of his team at the hands of Atir who also calls herself Rita.

Alpha, I am the last one left. We must stop her. Send the meteor to my coordinates. He pulls away a dead tree and buries the five coins in a hole in the ground. Unknown to them, an unknown team of Rangers is stopping Dark Specter and the birth of a phantom of the Morphin Grid. Seek only those who are worthy, find only those who are strong. With the Zeo Crystal, we could have ruled the universe together but deep down, I knew that was never going to happen because of your cowardice and now you must die, Zordon. We will die together, Rita. The meteor that Zordon asked Alpha 4 to send arrived alongside many others from a unknown source, being Sledge's ship, along with a bomb from Keeper as Zordon of Eltar, the legendary sage, will eventually battle with the wicked witch named Rita Repulsa who lost her son named Bubba to a dinosaur and sold herself to a demon named Lokar The Terrible but that is not for another 65 million years.

Zordon of Eltar P.O.V.
I can't believe what I have just seen. It's a terrible tragedy that has shaken the whole universe. Rita has become far too dangerous to be left alive but there is no one out there who can stop her right now. It could take a very long time for anyone to be able to just equal her power, let alone surpass it. The only thing we can do for now is seal her away until that day comes. I saw that the Red Ranger buried his Power Coin alongside the other 4 that aren't in Rita's possession in the ground and that gives me a small glimmer of hope for the future. The chances of this happening are extremely slim but I hope that one day, the Power Coins can be retrieved by 5 warriors worthy of being the Power Rangers. Atir was not seen after she betrayed Zorin and the others because she fell into the sea as the meteors began hitting Earth which caused the Squadron Rangers to leave Earth but they are currently unknown to anyone else and they only left behind the remains of their Morphin Hearts and the Phantom Ranger. It could be eons before they return.
