[hider=Sample] Jonah stood behind a lone tree with his binoculars set to night-vision, the darkness only lightened by the stray strands of the moon.. He had set up his sting in a small park for kids, surrounded by small shrubbery and a few trees all of which was going to be demolished soon. Across from him stood the construction zone where they were working on a 20 floor parking garage. As if the world needed more places for Galatec to park their fancy vehicles. He was there because there had been a report of beasts getting loose from the science division, a few Githkin test subjects had broken out of the lab and ran off into the city with a few people commenting on seeing them in the park at night. No one was advised to stay indoors because Galatec didn't want panic to ruin their precious balance which meant the people of the city were being left high and dry. Instead, curfew was moved up to 9:00 pm, lucky there weren't any encounters in that short amount of time. But now, night had fallen and anyone not in doors was a target which didn't seem to matter as there had been no sign of any people for awhile. Jonah wasn't sure if he was happy or sad about that. In this part of town there was always someone trying to get one over on you, he remembered hearing gun shots from his window from time to time, now he doesn't hear anything, no crimes, no muggings just the silence of night. “Every thing's so peaceful now.” He thought to himself as he watched the area. It was nights like these where he was the most conflicted. He was about to stop a few monsters that could kill a lot of people but he wasn't sure if the city has ever been safer than it is now. Nights like these could happen every day, a few Githkin escaping every night and it might not even make a dent in Earth's war torn history. This was one of the main reasons he couldn't except the other ranger's idea of a righteous victory, he couldn't say that Galatec wasn't a benefit to earth as a whole. He certainly got higher in this society than his background would have allowed him to before, there wasn't much prejudice or pollution or war. Just work and while that might be boring he couldn't say that weren't plenty of people who should only have that option in life. *rustle* His gaze instantly went to a bush on the opposite side of his hiding place. His hand went for his morpher but he didn't move, he wouldn't till he confirmed his target. As he watched, two figures popped out of the bush, they looked around warily before fulling stepping out into the moonlight, revealing their small frames. Children, two of them, they walked around as if trying to find something. The first was about twelve while the other was at least 13. Jonah didn't move from his post but instead used his binoculars to scan them closer. He noticed that they weren't frightened, instead being rather resolved. Judging by their hooded attire, they must have planned to be outside tonight. Hooded children out scouting the night sky with an emotion in their eyes, they must be part of the .5% meaning.. They were rebel scouts. “Great, just what I needed.” Jonah scoffed to himself, obviously not thrilled with the idea of having to deal with another rebel problem. Those guys really need to start leaving things to the professionals. Not that he was any more of a professional than they were but he definitely had more combat training. Luckily they didn't spot him as he hid in the shadows, to bad a very aggressive group of something had the duo in their sights. The rogue Githkins, five of them. The creatures moved toward the children and they screamed. The scout duo clearly hadn't had access to the same reports that his team had. The younger child ducked behind the eldest but still held some form of courage as the creatures drew nearer. The first Githkin raised it's hand to strike but the blow was offset by a timely thrown stone that knocked it's hand off course. The beast quickly turned to identify the attacker only to be met with a larger stone striking it in the face, in fact they were all being pelted with stones, most at their legs and ankles but a number of them aimed at their eyes and face. The children were initially scared but then became rather perplexed when they saw their would-be attackers being pelted. They stood there curious before a glimpse of a figure in the shadows ushering them to escape had them nodding and running back into the bushes, leaving as fast as they had come. “Perfect.” Jonah thought within the shadows. “They didn't see my face and I managed to sit some of those idiots in the eye.” He quickly scanned them over, three of the five still looked like they had a decent control of their faculties. “Even blind, that's still too many for my liking, I'll have to fight them on my terms if I wanna win.” And then he remembered the construction yard. “That's it.” He dashed out of the foliage to close the distance between him and the Githkin, Shocked at first, one made a fierce swing he ducked and rolled under before popping up to his feet in between the two blinded by stones. He deflected a left hook with an open palm before his leg whipped up to kick both eye damaged Githkin's in the chest, leg swinging back and forth between the two of them. "As I thought." The attack merely stunned them and soon the others were on him as well, swinging violently as he back flipped away and skidded to a stop. “That's right, your enemy's right here,” He cockily saluted before running into the parking garage shadows with the Githkin's hot on his trail. “Alright,” He swiped his hand over his wrist and his morpher flashed [hider=GREEN] “Strike force, flash forward!” …... In the parking garage on level three, the Githkin's crept. Deep into the shadows they lurked, foot steps echoing in the hollow space, often turning at the sight of a shadowy gray figure passing by them like a phantom. Their eyes scanned the area for their prey but to no avail. Suddenly, they spotted a green glow across from them. On closer inspection, it was the light of the green ranger. He stood in his armor plated black suit, neon green lighting his person as he waited for the mob to reach him. They all quickly attacked, the first lunging only to hit air when the ranger dispersed into light, revealing itself to be a hologram. “Not quite.” The Githkin stood confused for a moment before a slash from behind and a spinning back kick had it slamming into a stone pillar.. Jonah landed to turn and face the rest of the soldiers geared up in his green ranger suit, now wielding a glowing combat knife of neon green and a pistol of the same design. The four remaining Githkin's flew off to attack in a frenzy. “Four targets left, their intelligence is low but I knew that already, Remember, even in your ranger suit, you're not a tank, I'll need to make of use of their weak mindedness and avoid a head on confrontation. .” They closed in with amazing speed. [i]“Dodge, don't block!”[/i] He dashed backwards to avoid an incoming punch from the next Githkin to close the distance, firing twice into its chest before splitting into two. [i]“Now, misdirection!”[/i] Both greens dashed forward to strike, one going airborne to come down on the alien soldier with a superman punch. The soldier held up its hands to block but felt nothing when the airborne ranger dispersed into light and it was instead faced with a round of laser fire that struck it in the chest before the real ranger closed the distance with a slide kick that knocked the Githkin's feet right from under it and had it flipping and landing on its back. [i] “Don't waste a second, each attack is a set up for the next one!”[/i] As Jonah slid, he fired into the remaining three Githkin, blasts striking their legs to immobilize them before he was on his feet and bursting forward, splitting into three rangers with a flash of green light. His two copies shattered upon contact, blinding the two Githkins on either side with a flash before Jonah knocked them into stone with a split kick. He hit the ground in a roll but didn't stop his momentum as he kicked off the cold concrete and ran down to attack the final target. “Green saber.” His blade beginning to shine brightly. “Shattering Mirage!” He accelerated, leaving a trail of green light as he slashed through the Githkin before him. As the light dispersed the creature fell to its knees, falling over as Jonah walked away. [/hider] [hider= BLUE] “Strike force, flash forward!” …..................... In the parking garage on level three, the Githkin's crept. Deep into the shadows they lurked, foot steps echoing in the hollow space, often turning at the sight of a shadowy gray figure passing by them like a phantom. Their eyes scanned the area for their prey but to no avail. Their search came to a halt at the sound of a spinning blade of light flying out of the shadows. A neon disc of blue, it soared through the air before striking a Githkin in the face and knocking it to the ground. The disk bounced off the creature and returned to where it came from. “Okay,” Jonah stood behind a stone pillar with the glowing disc now back in hand, his blue armor scratched the surface of the stone column holding up the garage level's ceiling. He took a deep breath to analyze the situation. He had already set his helmet to calculating the proper trajectories for this floor, his helmet accounted for the stone columns and the material of the ceiling. “ let's get this over with.” “I'll disorient them first by striking all five at once!” He hit the ground rolling, coming out of the maneuver with a toss of his shield into the crowd of five. The shield bounced off each of the Githkins, striking them in the chest and face before returning to Jonah as he spun around to cath it and pull up his gun. He fired into the group four times, precise shots aimed at their legs and eyes fired off at lightning fast speed. “Cripple their defense and than move in for the kill!” Then he was rushing forward as he twirled his combat knife in hand. He slashed the first in a flash of blue before delivering a sharp kick to another and firing at a third from point blank range. An incoming blow was blocked by his shield before he parried and let the punch slide across his wrist so he could strike the attacker's back with his dagger. They were strong but he was faster, he out maneuvered them to weave through each blow and return with a sharp strike in retaliation to throw them off balance and set up his next assault. “Crap!” He bent backwards to avoid a high punch just to come back up and stomp the attacking Githkin square in the chest and send it skidding backwards. The revamped space was calculated by his helmet and he quickly kicked off the ground to spin twice before throwing his shield. The disc struck them all, ricocheting off each Githkin in a blinding flash of blue until it was caught by Jonah. In the next instant, the shield formed an orb around his hand and he brought it down on a Githkin skull to smash it into the ground. The shield strike had given a favorable distance so he quickly brought up his gun to put down each of the Githkin with a head shot. Flashes of blue eclipsed the shadowy landscape as he turned to fire, over and over he released a round of lasers into each alien grunt with each shot a stirring calculation from point blank range. On the last shot, he tossed his shield into the shadows, watching as all but one creature fell. “Stronger than the others, perfect.” He commented as he raised his gun. “Take a step back for me.” He fired once, blast of light pushing the soldier one step backwards and into the path of his returning shield. The wary Githkin had a second to realize before the blue disc struck the creature in the head and knocked it to the ground. [/hider] Jonah breathed heavily as his ranger form shattered out of existence. He had been lucky, the obstacles in the unfinished parking garage gave him ample back up for his strategy. Had he been left in the open, the tide could have very well changed to their favor but what could have been wasn't really important now. By hook or by crook he was still alive and the kids were still alive, that was all that mattered now. He sighed to himself, heart still racing from the exertion. He waited for a moment to steady himself before he retrieved the item he had been hiding in the back of his pants. A flare gun, simple but elegant in its design. He pointed the weapon up at the sky and fired. The flare flew high into the sky before exploding like a fire work. “That'll get Galatec's attention.” He noted. Now notified in as proper a way as possible, the corporation could retrieve their lost and unstable experiments. Jonah wasn't totally pleased with the idea of assisting someone he had designated as his enemy but he couldn't carry them out on his own and Galatec had better facilities for the alien soldiers albeit slave ready more than anything else. “I guess that means the mission's over.” “Time to head back to base.”[/hider] So, I think the pre-morph part show his ideals concerning the war pretty well and how he thinks outside of, and during, battle. For the actual Power Ranger part of the sample, I hope I managed to showcase his methodology concerning combat. He makes use of his surroundings and always picks an area where he can get the most out of his abilities, even before the fight, he uses rocks to damage their eyes to a degree before luring them into the shadows. Jonah is the kind that attempts to take control of the battle before it begins. He never closes the distance until he's properly knocked his opponents off balance and always goes for the surprise strike. Everyone, please tell me if you liked this and which ranger color you thought I used better. I know it's [@ProPro]'s final decision but I'd still enjoy feedback I can use as a future reference. Edit:Sorry for any grammar errors!!!
