Episode 8:

Crimson Matters


Somewhere in Japan.

A group of individuals were in a business meeting inside the Hero Commission building. They were in there discussing a broad range of topics, but one thing remained clear. The main topic was about the power rangers.

"These new rangers are a problem; public support for the Hero bill dropped 5%," one person said.

"Our support in the house of representatives is also starting to decrease," said another person in the room.

"Public support for the S.R.F. has increased by 10%." In front of the meeting table, a blond, middle-aged woman sits in a chair. 'To think there would be more.' She would then raise her hand as she then spoke. "What of the matter of these new villains? Why is it that our heroes can't defeat them?" she asked.

"We were able to recover some samples from one of the giant battles; it appears whenever one of our analysts tries to use their quirk to identify the substance, it blanks out," said one of the people in lab coats.

"In some cases, they felt as if their quirk was being drained. We theorized that these villains, no creatures, have natural resistance to quirks." Another person in the lab coat speaks.

"Do we have any heroes or anything capable of bringing them down other than a top 10 hero?" the association president speaks.

"As of now, we have nothing but reports that show that water-based quirks have been effective. But for the giant-based villains, we have nothing so far but an idea." Said one of the scientists.

"In a world, with the forgotten, S.R.F lets go!"

"The powers have awakened, S.R.F lets go!"

"Go beyond the emergency, S.R.F lets go!"

"To stop the enemies! Power Rangers Go!"

"They will unite!" "Power Rangers Go!"

"They stand to fight!" "Power Rangers Go!"

"Have no fear!" "Power Ranger Go!"

"Cause they are here!" "Power Ranger S.R.F Lets Go!"

*Siren Sounds*


S.R.F H.Q

It was a beautiful day in Japan; the weather was nice, within the S.R.F., our response team of rangers seems to be heading to what appears to be a training facility.

"You know it's kind of nice having another team of rangers here," said Aoyama.

"I agree; it's nice knowing that there is another team around to help," said Melissa.

"As good as it is to have some help, it makes me wonder how bad things are going to get from here," Izuku wonders as he and his team enter the facility.

Within the training facility, there seemed to be multiple smaller houses, a shooting yard and targets, a small cliff face, and other locations. As the trio arrived, they positioned themselves right next to the Force trio. Arriving a few minutes later is David, and Tsukauchi, who appears to be in a new uniform, arrives at the scene.

"Alright, now that everyone is here, it's time for some exercises; each of you has to complete a series of obstacles," said David.

"On your marks... go," the rangers all rush to continue their exercises.

We start out with Aoyama and Shinso. Both appear to be rock climbing up one direction while David stands on the top. Both rush over the top of the obstacle only to land and salute as they reach their resolution. "2 minutes and 15 seconds of good work," said David, holding a stopwatch.

Izuku and Melissa were carrying out a proxy evacuation with some training drones. One of the drones fell over like an injured person as Izuku rushed and carried the heavy machine to safety. As he slowly sets it down as Melissa performs medical. David would only nod his head in approval as he looked at the watch.

Meanwhile inside the building, Momo was carefully holding a pair of pliers as she overlooked a counting down training bomb. Confident in her skills, they cut the green wire, ending the timer in under with a few minutes left on the clock.

Kirishima was going through a building with a training pistol out. Within the building were multiple targets and obstacles within the room. He would then fire his pistol at the targets, releasing paintball shots. After hitting the last target, he would leave the building and salute the captain. "1 minute and 5 seconds fastest time in this course. Good work," he says, then dismisses Kirishima as he heads into the building.

As Captain Tsukauchi walked into the building, he would begin to inspect the work done by Kirishima. At the entrance of the room, the bullets fired on the targets seem to be on point, but he would then begin to notice some discrepancies on the later targets. After some time, he would come out and talk to David.

As the group regroups with each other, David will then speak. "All of you did a good job, but for now you're all dismissed from your daily duties. Kirishima, would you stay behind for a second?" The dark-haired male would raise his eyebrow and nod only for him as the other left, leaving him alone with the two adults.

"Was there something wrong, sir?" he asked

"It was as impressive as it was to see you push a new speed record; you also got the lowest score on the course."

"But sir, I hit every target!" he complained.

"Perhaps you did, but there is more to the course than just hitting a target—more to being a cop; you got to think before you fire a blaster!" Tsukauchi stated. Before he could continue grilling the cadet, the ground started to shake. An earthquake took place for about 10 minutes before it calmed down.

"That was strange; an earthquake of that caliber should have been predicted unless... Let's get down to your stations," David commanded.

The rangers in what each of their teams assigned command stations were watching David speak on what occurred via in person for the Rescue team and in Hologram for the Force team.

"Earlier today we experienced our first category 3 earthquake in 100 years since the creation of the tremor detection system, also known as the T.D.S.. Damage to the city was minimal, and local responders are handling the situation."

"What does the T.D.S. do?" asked Aoyama.

"The T.D.S. was developed by a scientist who at first wanted to detect seismic tremors within the ground as an early warning system for earthquakes but was soon upgraded to stop earthquakes up to Category 7." A visible diagram of the system is shown.

"But if they can stop earthquakes, why didn't they stop this one? Is it malfunctioning?" as Melissa

The captain then speaks. "Unfortunately, 40 minutes before the earthquake, we got reports of a break-in at one of the T.D.S. facilities. Local authorities discovered that the facility's critical equipment was caved in and damaged." Images then show local reports. "Luckily the prevention system was still active at the site, but the detection system was still damaged."

"Judging by why we're here, this cave in was no accident," said Momo.

"That's correct. Currently, local authorities are calling this a quirk-based crime, but I believe it's something more." Said Tsukauchi.

"What's the plan, Captain?" asked Shinso.

"Right now I want Yaoyorozu and Shinsou to investigate the broken facility. Kirishima and Midoriya, you will head to the other facility and make sure it hasn't been damaged." Kirishima and Izuku nodes

David will look at the rest of the rescue team and say, "You guys are on standby in case another earthquake happens; we will need you on Zord standby for rescues." the duo nods.


At the Skull Cavern

"Well well it is a good idea to attack these facilities while my prince is searching for new allies," said Jinxer.

"Oh he is gonna be so impressed with what i accomplished." said the demonic mole servant.

"And once those facilities are gone ore damaged enough, it will leave time for quick spikes to take effect" said Jinxer.


On the drive to the facility

Izuku and Kirishima were in the backseat; Izuku was overlooking a datapad with info on the facility, and Kirishima was looking out of the window with a down expression.

"Are you ok, Kirishima? You looked down since the training exercise," asked Izuku.

"Do you ever wonder if you were the right pick to be a ranger?" Kirishima replied

"Woah, that's pretty left field; what brought this on?" Izuku asked wonder what his fellow leader is thinking.

"We have arrived. Let's just say I didn't do too well in the training exercise today," he told. Before Izuku could reply, a beeping sound on there wrist was heard.

"Guys come in," a voice could be heard through their morphers as they heard Momo's voice.

"What is it, Momo?" asks Kirishima.

"Shinsou and I were able to recover the footage of the attack; after viewing it, we are within reason that a demon is involved in the attack," said Momo.

"Then the captain's hunch was correct; Momo, keep us posted if you find anything else," said Kirishima as he ended the transmission.

"Then we better go check if this place is... woah," Izuku yells as the area around then begins to shake.

"Was that another earthquake?" Izuku asks.

"No look around; there's no damage to any surrounding beings that are centralized." Kirishima says as they both enter the building. as they entered, they would spot what appeared to be batlings attacking some workers. The two would quickly morph before going on to attack the batlings. Izuku, with his smasher in hand, would begin to realize something wrong with the situation. "Crimson, there is a chance that this may not be the only group you go on ahead; I'll handle things here." he states as he charges in punching a batling to a wall.

"Right," he says before proceeding on to the next room over.

As the crimson power ranger enters the room, he sees a large yellow mole-like demon looking over a few pylons and systems. "Getting here was easy; now it's time to destroy this one," said the yellow demon.

"Stop right there," said the ranger as he fired his laser. The demon turned around. "You're not going to stop me; I will destroy this place, and this city will be a wasteland," said the demon.

"I don't think so," said the ranger.

The demon rushes at the ranger in an attempt to slash it with its claws; Kirishima anticipates and dodges it. He then fires his laser, which hits the demon in the chest. The demon staggers back and fires another beam, which the ranger dodges.

The ranger fires again and hits the demon in the shoulder. The demon falls to the ground, and the ranger stands over him.

"You're finished," said the ranger.

"Not quite," said the demon.

The demon burrows underground and appears behind the ranger as he slashes his back in surprise. "Ahh!" he explains as he stumbles towards the ground. In a quick reaction, he would pull out his blaster and fire at the demon, causing him to fall down.

Quakemon would get up and look at the ranger. Before sinking its hands on the ground and unleashing a shockwave, forcing Kirashima to the ground and damaging some of the building behind him. "Well, finish this another time, Ranger!" the demon says as he digs a hole away.

"Hey, get back here," Kirishima states as he prepares to dive into the hole, only to be stopped by the sounds of his communicator.

"Kirashima, stand down and check the systems."

"But Captain the Demon is getting away."

"That's an order!" should The Captain

"Yes Siir." The Crimson Ranger responded reluctantly as he went over the console and began a systems check; the rest of the room itself had sparks and small flames.

A few moments later, Izuku runs into the area and uses the extinguisher function in his blaster to fend off the flames.


Back at base,

Kirishima was sitting in his chair with a grim expression on his face. He had just finished arguing with the captain over what happened.

Start flashback

"Sir, why didn't you let me go after the demon?" asks Kirishima.

"Checking the server systems was the priority," said Tsukauchi.

"But Sir..." Kirishima tried to retort,

"Cadet Kirishima, there are times when the obvious choice is the wrong choice; clearly, you need to clear your head, so stay at base while the others investigate."

End Flashback

Kirishima sighed as he watched the monitors in command. 'Man, today's not been my day.'

As he sits by the fireplace, he begins to wonder where it all went wrong today. Maybe I should start with the beginning," he tells himself as he heads to the training grounds.


Meanwhile

Mono and Shinsou appeared to be in a clearing near the mountains.

"You sure this is the place?"

"The readings don't lie; just before each quake there was a spike in energy readings in this location," said Momo.

Shinsou would look around a general area until he spotted what appeared to be a cave. "If I were trying to cause an earthquake, I would be as close to the earth as possible," as he points in that direction.

The duo would nod at each other as they entered. After some time exploring the cave, the two would hear some strange sounds in the distance.

"Hurry up and get everything set up; we got a show that's going to stomp the yard," said the demon as he is instructing the batlings to set up the spikes. As the batlings were following the orders of the demon, two shots were fired into the area. "What?" shouted Quakemon.

"Force the morph!" The two shout as they are surrounded by caution tape and pink and purple light, which disappears, showing their ranger forms.

"Sounds like your having a party!" said Shinsou.

"Mind if we crash it," Momo states.

"Batlings attack!" Quakemon commanded as the foot soldiers rush towards the rangers.


Back at the base

Kirishima had walked into the training area with his eyes distant as he continued to walk forward towards the target room, where he received his lowest score.

As he enters the building, he first notices that the first few targets were hit, but as he continues on, he starts noticing something else. "What the," he says as he continues to investigate the rest of the rooms.

Upon further investigation, he had come to realize that although he had hit the targets, he had also hit other products and displays within the room, including fire hydrants, propane tanks, and and other.

"Huh, no wonder I received a low score; I hit everything," he said as he slammed his hand towards a wall. "Maybe I'm not cut out to be a ranger."

"That's where you're wrong, Cadet," a voice said from behind him.

Appearing onto the testing area would be the caption. "But Captain, I failed the test, and I almost disobeyed orders. Won't it be better if someone else was a ranger."

"Kirishima, Though this great responsibility was placed on you, you were not chosen to be a ranger because of your brains and skills; those can be improved upon with time and training. If anything, yours and the other teams' training were far from being completed. You were chosen to be a ranger because of your heart and ability to connect to others. We all have times where we believed we had failed, but the moments that we do after that decide who we can be," said Tsukauchi.

The ground begins to shake heavily as the two begin to lose balance and stumble.

"Melissa, what's the situation?" asked Tsukauchi.

"Another earthquake occurred, and this one was to the scale of a 5.5. The responders have been deployed to assist in the damaged area while black and pink are currently engaged in combat."

Tsukauchi would look at Kirishima and say, "Go, your team needs you."

Kirishima nods and heads towards the location.


Back at the Cave,

The spikes on the ground around seem to start vibrating while the Black and Pink Rangers were blasting and combating batlings left and right.

"Man, the shaking doesn't seem to help the situation," said Shinsou.

"We have to keep fighting," said Momo.

Quakemon looks at the duo. "I've got you now, rangers" looked ready to strike against the rangers with a shockwave but was stopped by a crimson blast pushing him down.

"Not so fast," said Kirishima in his morphed form, reuniting with the others.

"About time you showed up," said Shinsou.

"What's the plan?" said Momo.

"We have to stop whatever caused those tremors. If we stop them, we can save the city," said Kirishima.

"We saw them place some spikes on the ground; they may be the cause," said Momo.

"Perfect, let's do some landscaping," responded the crimson ranger.

Shinsou rocketed towards a group of batlings towards one side of the cave. A swift combination of kicks flurried the air as he got closer to a few of the spikes. He would then pull out his Force Whip and strike towards the spikes causing them to break "That's three down!"

Momo started using her blaster to fire at attacking batlings as she reached closer to one the spikes she pulled out her Force Shooter and would proceed to fire a heavy blast destroying the spike. "Fourth one destroyed"

Quakemon is currently in battle with the crimson ranger, launching shockwave after shockwave at his opponent. Kirishima Would blissfully dodge the shock ways, as he proceeds to move closer and closer to try and destroy the spike. "Don't think ill let you near this spike." Quakemon states as he unleashes a shockwave that is sure to hit the ranger dead on.

"Not this time!" Kirishima shouts as he pulls out his Force Shield as he redirects the attack towards another direction hitting the spike near the demon. "No! You'll play for this!" the demon shouts in shame as the shaking stops with the spikes' destruction. But before It could attack in kind, Kirishima slams the demon with the shield forcing it outside of the cave in and into a clearing.

"Good work team let's finish this" he says the rangers regroup outside.

The trio pull out their blasters and place their linkers with them. "Final Emergency!" echoed out of the weapons as energy began to surround. "Ready Aim Fire!" they shouted as three massive beams of Pink, Purple, and crimson energy collided with the demon causing it to explode.

Meanwhile on top of a cliff Jinxer is looking down at the destroyed demon. "Oh curse those rangers" he would then fling a card at the demon corpse. "Demons of Earth that you came, Shake up the world and rise again" bats begin to form around the course as it begins to swirl and become one forming a giant Quakemon. "Now let's really make things shake!"


From the ground, Kirishima would look at his team and say, "The response rangers are too busy in the city to help. It's going to be just us this time," the other two would nod as Kirishima calls for the Zords. "Enforcers Roll Out!"

We cut back to the base as the familiar large tunnel begins to connect onto the bridge. As the Zords begin to move out of the tunnel and head towards the mountainside. The police trio, upon seeing the Zords arrival, would jump in and proceed with the Megazord configuration.

The Black Speed Enforcer drives past and does a u-turn to connect to the Heavy Enforcer Zord. Its black wheel splits and moves towards the side, while the Heavy Enforcer extends parts of itself, retracting the wheels and closing compartments. The pink Traffic Enforcer spits parts into two pieces and attaches itself to the Speed Enforcer's sides. The now connected rapidly begin to ascend as the Crimson zord becomes the legs, Black the torso, and Pink the arms. When finished, a section opens up on the torso, allowing the head to appear with sirens blazing.

"Forcecode Megazord!" The Rangers yelled from within their cockpit.

The Megazord proceeds to stare down the demon in front of it as Quakemon begins to go for an assault. In response, the Megazord rushes in as well to conduct a flurry of punches at the demon, hitting the demon dead on in the chest. As Quakemon lands on the ground, "I'm not done yet," he proceeds to dig a hole. Disappearing from sight.

"Where did he go?" said Momo from within the cockpit. The Megazord begins to look around its surroundings, only for it to be caught from below as Quakemon hands appear. "Got you now," it says and begins to drag the mech underground.

"What do we do?" "Grind it." On the leg portions of the Megazord wheels begin to spin at a rapid pace; unfortunately, Quakemon hands were on the wheel protons. "Ahhh," it screams in pain as it releases the zord from its grasp and out in the open.

"Let's end this," said Kirishima as the Megazord pulls out its blaster and aims at the demon.

"Final Emergency! Forcecode Megazord: Lockdown Blast!"

A heavy blast of energy hits Quakemon in the chest. The collision caused sparks to appear before the demon stubbled and exploded from the damage it received. "Justice Served," said Kirishima.


Later that day,

The rangers appeared to be in the mess hall with trays in hand as they headed towards a table. All was normal except for one individual who was now spotting red hair.

"So why did you dye your hair?" said Izuku, curious about the newly dubbed Redheads decision.

"Well, today has really put things into perspective, and I've realized that in order to be the best version of me and my team, I need to think more with my head instead of my heart," he said as he smiled. "Plus, red hair is pretty manly!"

"It's also messy; believe me, it's going to be a drag to get that dye out of the sink," said Shinsou.

The group begins to laugh at his remarks.


Back at the Skull Cavern

"Oh no, Olympius is going to be so mad another demon failed," Jinxer says as he passes around nervously.

"Jinxer, I have returned," said Olympius as he walked into the room.

"Oh my prince, you have returned; how was your quest, my lord?" said the servant.

"Why Jinxer? It has been most fruitful, and soon new stages to the plan will be implemented, and those rangers won't have a chance," said the prince as he began to laugh.
