Just Normal Girls

Chapter 18: Change of Plot

On the Earth's moon, in the remnants of an old castle, a man with steel skin was conducting a ritual over a vortex of dark energy. He held a sword in one hand and had a long flowing cape, showing that he was a member of some sort of nobility. He held a small chrome bolt in his other hand.

"I shall avenge you, my love, Archerena." He said to himself.

He put the bolt in his pocket and shot lightning out of his sword into the vortex. There was an enormous flash of lightning and a person slowly rose from the smoke left from the vortex. It was vaguely male, but human was not a word to describe it. His faced was completely covered by a knight's helmet with a 'Z' coming out of the top. He had no skin, only complete muscle, with a metallic chrome exoskeleton and tubes carrying fluid in and out of his veins. His staff also had a Z on it, but also was bladed.

"You! I thought you left before I torched your bucket of bolts father!" the new being said in his growling, sinister voice.

"Do not compare me to that pathetic excuse of a father. I am Prince Gasket, and the Royal House of Gadgetry shall be revived under my rule, and you and I will divide the universe equally."

"And why shouldn't I just get rid of you now, like I did to King Mondo?"

"Because I gave you new life and a chance to rule with an iron fist yet again. Would you really want me to take that away? I can have you under my control easily with the spell I used to get you back."

"Grrr...Very well, but you will help me take control of Earth first. Then we move on the other planets. I have a score to settle with the goody goods."

"I'm glad we have an agreement, welcome back, Lord Zed, Emperor of Evil."

Meanwhile, a cloaked figure was watching in the shadows. He stealthily moved out of the castle without being noticed and opened a device on his wrist, typing 335 on the dial and turning into the Red Space Ranger. 'I've got to tell Tommy about this.' he thought as he flew way on his Galaxy Glider.

Change of Scene

"So that's the gist of it. Andros found out about this about a week ago, and we feel that we need to unite the Rangers and Senshi against this threat." Tommy said.

The group was now gathered around a campfire as Carter and Tommy explained what was going on and why they were following them.

"Why should we trust you? We kinda have our own problems right now." Ranma said.

"With the Moderators? Yes, we know." Tommy said.

"We're willing to help you against these Moderators, as long as you help us against Lord Zed and Gasket." Carter said.

"But, wait, I read that the Machine Empire was destroyed when the Space Rangers saved the Earth from the invasion. Also, I thought you guys got rid of the last of the Machine Empire." Ami stated.

"It's true, we did destroy the five generals from the Machine Empire, but Prince Gasket was located in another galaxy at the time and he was disowned many years ago by King Mondo. Now he's back to have the Machine Empire rise from the ashes. And what better way to stick it to the memory of his dad than resurrecting the guy who killed him last time, Lord Zed." Tommy said.

"Also, it turns out that there are bigger problems. When all us red rangers got together to get rid of the generals, we thought Cole, the Wild Force ranger, had destroyed Serpent Terra, Lord Zed's personal dragon zord. I really don't know how we could be so stupid. It was clearly a decoy with how easy it was to destroy, the zord is powerful enough to blow up a planet."

"How did Cole destroy the decoy?" Makoto asked.

"With a flying motorcycle." Tommy replied. The girls all looked at him like he grew a second head.

"It doesn't matter. All that matters is...we need your help."

"It's clear that we won't stand a chance with Cogs, Puddies, and Tengas combined. We wish to join the forces of all Rangers and Senshi alike." Carter stated.

"There's a catch, you wouldn't bother asking if there wasn't, we would say yes immediately." Shizuku said.

"As a matter of fact, yes." "We're starting our own personal army at PRHQ. It will serve as both a base, and an academy for future Rangers to come. We want all of you to join the academy, as well as fight with us against Zed and Gasket."

"So, we get special combat training, as well as our regular education and an army to help us fight the big baddies?" Ranma summed up.

"That's what we're proposing. Of course, your parents and guardians will need to be informed of this and give their consent, what with you all still being minors." Carter said.

"But, our parents don't know about our secret identities." Rei brought up.

"Then you'll have to tell them. I'm sure they'll understand that it's a government operation."

"Which government?" Minako asked.

"The World Government. We have no time to bicker between countries, so American and Japanese ambassadors are working together to help construct the PRHQ program." Tommy said.

"Well, if we can get things off the ground, we'll join you guys." Usagi said.

Change of Scene

Lord Zed sat on his throne watching the scene on Earth with his magnified vision.

"Damn that Tommy Oliver. And Damn his new friends as well!"

"And how do you plan to stop this collaboration?" Gasket asked, standing to the side of the imperial chamber.

"I plan to show those Senshi just what kind of powerful force I am!" "We are." "Whatever! I'll need a soldier who's quite expendable..."

Zed raised his hand and, in a zap of lightning, two new creatures emerged in the room. One was an anthropomorphic ape with gold plated knight armor and large wings. He had bright red eyes and appeared to be snarling. The other person was a skeleton who had an army helmet, as well as a long sword made of bones.

"Goldar! Rito! You fools have failed me in my past life, but you have a chance to redeem yourselves now!"

"It is an honor to work for you again my lord." Goldar said. "Meh, I got nothing better to do." Rito said.

"Gasket will give you the details."

"There's a large group of young women that our old friend Tommy wishes to recruit. Take as many Cogs and Tengas down there and show them what our power is." the robot prince explained.

"Yes, my lord!" "You betcha!" The two teleported away and down to Earth.

Gasket turned to Zed, "Do you think it'll work?" "No, it never does."

Change of Scene

"So, I guess the training trip will be cut short ladies, we got bigger priorities. Usagi, Minako, Rei, Ami, you all need to tell your parents right away about what we're doing." Ranma said. The four girls nodded in agreement.

"Someone's gonna need to tell the Outers about this arrangement." Natsuru said.

"You mean Setsuna Meioh, Haruka Tenoh, Michiru Kaioh, and Hotaru Tomoe? We're on our way now to tell them about the situation." Tommy said.

"Hey, how do we contact you incase we need to tell you what the situation is?" Haruhi asked.

"Well, you all have communicators, I'm sure there's a frequency where they can contact ours without the call being intercepted by our enemies." Carter said.

"Leave that to me." Ami said, "Computer, calculate what frequency ranger and senshi communicators can contact each other with." "The number is...calculating...531-8008."

"Alright, then you tell us right away when we can set up your dorms at the academy." Tommy said.

"Okay, the next time we see you will be at PRHQ." Carter said.

Suddenly, there was a flash of lightning and Goldar and Rito appeared in front of the group. Behind them were several giant crows that cawed menacingly at them, as well as some strange silver and copper colored robots with pale gold face masks.

"Long time, no see Tommy!" Goldar said.

"Goldar, you really don't know when to quit do you?"

"Lord Zed wants me to murder you and your girlfriends, and that's just what I'll do."

"Well, if you're gonna be that way...It's Morphin' Time!" Tommy grabbed his belt buckle and thrust it forward, green lightning shooting out of it.

"DRAGONZORD!" A flash of light and Tommy was in his original green ranger uniform. His chest covered by a triangular golden shield, with his helmet looking like a dragon's head.

"Lightspeed Rescue!" Carter said, clicking the sides of his morpher, causing it to fold out. He passed through a large red shield and he then had his uniform on. Very different form Tommy's, Carter's suit was red with a white pattern on the chest. His visor covered his entire face and he stood at attention. "Red Ranger! Rescue Ready!"

"Well, no point in being subtle now girls, let's show them how we do it!" Usagi said.

"Moon Prism Power!" "Mercury Crystal Power!" "Mars Crystal Power!" "Venus Crystal Power!" "Jupiter Crystal Power!" "Crimson Crystal Power!" "Cyan Crystal Power!" "Io Lumina Power!" "Ganymede Lumina Power!" "Umbriel Lumina Power!" "Callisto Lumina Power!"

"MAKE UP!"

The Kampfer girls didn't need a phrase to transform, but theirs was also like the senshi's.

"Lotta people to beat! Lotta more fun for us Goldar!" Rito said.

"You ready to show us what you got?" Tommy asked the senshi.

"We were gonna say the same thing to you." Moon said.

"Attack!" Goldar yelled. The Cogs and Tengas all charged.

Tommy pulled out his weapon, a short green dagger, and faced Goldar head on. Moon and Venus teamed up to fight a squad of Tengas. Moon used her tiara Tron Light Disc to slash through multiple crows while Venus used her chain as a whip to knock several birds off their feet.

"I think it's time we showed them our newest attack love." Moon said.

"I think you're right sweetie."

The two blondes jumped into the air and landed in the perfect position, in front of a large group of Tengas. Venus started whipping her chain around in a spiral while Moon got her wand out for their attack.

"Lovers Vortex!" They both yelled, unleashing an energy wave that reduced almost all the Tengas to dust. They both posed next to each other and kissed.

Cyan and Crimson paired with Mars and Mercury. Cyan and Mars shot their own flames in bright blue and red. Mercury froze several Cogs and Crimson shattered them with her staff.

"Time for the quad attack?" Mars asked.

"Hells yeah!" Crimson and Cyan said.

The four senshi stood in a square and put their hands toward the middle. They all fired their attacks as it created a ball of flames surrounded by a thick shell of ice. Together they raised it into the air.

"Meteor Impact!" They all yelled, slamming the orb into the ground. The resounding explosion completely decimated the Cogs.

Carter pulled his gun and fired multiple rounds into several Tengas, because that's how Carter rolls.

Jupiter threw her Supreme Thunder into Io's hammer. Io and Callisto then charged Rito. Callisto blocked Rito's sword with her naginata, hitting him in the head with the blunt end.

"Io, now!" she yelled. Io jumped into the air, landed in front of Rito, and underhanded her electric charged hammer into his gut, sending him skyward.

When all the Tengas and Cogs were destroyed, Goldar took a hit in the chest from Tommy and stumbled back. He looked around and noticed he was the only one left.

"You may have one today Green Ranger, but know this. Lord Zed is back, and he won't stop until you're all dead."

"Yeah, we heard that the first time Goldilocks, tell Zed that if he wants to mess with us, we dare him."

With that, Goldar teleported away, leaving the group of heroes victorious.

"Power Down!" They all said at the same time, reverting to their civilian forms.

"Okay, I guess it's clear you guys are worth having around." Tommy said.

"The same can be said about you sugar." Ukyo said.

"Tell your parents about what's going on right away. PRHQ opens its doors in one month's time."

"Do you guys need a lift back to Tokyo?" Carter asked.

"No thanks, we'll catch the train back home. Besides, we still have to plan for our wedding." Ranma said.

"Very well, things are finally looking up for us. May the Power Protect you." and with that, Tommy and Carter left the valley, leaving the teenage girls to wonder about how big of a fight they just got into.

End of Chapter: And once again, I finally manage to find some time to get this all down on paper, or keyboard, or whatever. So the second story arc is beginning now, how will things work out for the Senshi and Rangers? I dunno.

A few things, one, when I do the KH crossover, I might actually cross it over with my other story, World Jumpers, since it's in the KH universe. Two, if you wanna learn more about Power Rangers and why I love it so much, look up Linkara's History of Power Rangers videos.

Thanks for reading, reviewing, favoriting, and being all around beautiful people.

This is adakun13, and the next chapter will still probably be another month away...sorry.
