[quote=Charlie Fox, Purple Dino Ranger][i]"Nearly a decade ago, I had the privilege of being part of a group of kids that were charged with saving the world from the threat of the Druidon Warfare Tribe. At different points in our life, we were bonded with the Power Crystals that granted us access to our powers to become Rangers and we used that energy to fend off a grave evil. Druidon burst into our world behind the improper use of power and corruption within GENESIS, a tech company that's obviously no longer in business, and sought to destroy our planet in order to mold it into their image. As Rangers, we struggled initially. I mean... try shoving ten teenagers into a fucking group project and you're bound to see some interesting results. Nonetheless, we found a way to make things work for all of us, successfully holding off Druidon for as long as possible.

That is... until matters grew worse.

Silas was certain that we had defeated Druidon after we combined our efforts for one final attack... but the deranged group was expecting this. Somehow, they caught us off guard and stabbed the Red Ranger through the hard. Obviously, Parker, his girlfriend at the time, was heartbroken and, in a fit of rage, she responded with her own attack which led to her murder as well. Two rangers were gone... but Andre and Eddie had the idea of using the energy from their own Power Crystals to forcefully combine with their physical bodies to take down Druidon once and for all. The sacrifice paid off... but at what cost? I know that Clint and Jordan were devastated, despite the fact that we had won. As for Kayla, Anna, and Wesley? They've moved on with their lives, leaving behind their Power Crystals and their duties as Rangers.

Since that time, I've grown up, graduated from Angel Grove University and invested much of my time during the day to my technical repair business. Things are going well in the entrepreneurial world I guess, but my primary focus is restoring the Ranger powers that were depleted after the war with Druidon. The media is sugarcoating the re-emergence of Druidon behind random explosions or juvenile acts, but I can sense Druidon's energy from a mile away. I've recently finished most of the Power Morphers, but now I need pilots for each of the suits. I know that Kayla, Anna and Wesley are lost causes... but I have hope for Clint and Jordan. If we can find more Rangers, then we can increase our strength. But for now, I've got to stay Ranger ready."[/i]

[hr][center][h3][b][color=37B6E1]Episode 1 - Ranger Ready, Part I[/color][/b][/h3][/center][hr]
[b]The Veterans[/b] - A few weeks ago, [color=BA55D3]Charlie[/color] spotted [color=4169E1]Jordan[/color] as the former Blue Ranger was in the midst of her job search, trying her best to get re-acclimated to Angel Grove as she settles back in to her hometown. After spending about an hour catching up with each other, [color=BA55D3]Charlie[/color] suggests to Jordan that they grab lunch or something on a Saturday. Well... that particular Saturday has come and [color=BA55D3]Charlie[/color] has plans to unveil what's about to happen in Angel Grove as Druidon has re-emerged. Will [color=4169E1]Jordan[/color] show up? Or will she blow off meeting with her former teammate? Likewise, [color=3CB371]Clint[/color] doesn't spend as much of his time in Angel Grove anymore due to working on his family's ranch. He knows that's he's in line to takeover the business and focusing on that has somewhat helped him ease his mind from the war years ago. But what happens when [color=3CB371]Clint[/color] stumbles upon [color=BA55D3]Charlie[/color] and possibly [color=4169E1]Jordan[/color] as he goes into the city for a lunch break? Will the former Green Ranger pull up a chair with them?

[b]The Rookies[/b] - The Angel Grove Youth Center is hosting a community event this weekend and, of course, [color=000000]Ross[/color] has the honor of working the event. In partnership with the other youth center workers, they have setup a food table, carnival events and other fun attractions to get the kids excited. Prior to the event, the AGYC also reached out to other community partners, including [color=DC143C]Sloane[/color] and his fraternity as well as [color=EE82EE]Vallory[/color] and some of the other members of the Women of Power League, to get some volunteers to do things such as passing out food, facilitating games, and cleaning up. The three of them have an opportunity to cross path around lunch time, connecting with each other and/or some of the kids at one of the tables on the back lawn. Or maybe they would rather be alone after expending so much energy volunteering? Regardless, [color=000000]Ross[/color], [color=DC143C]Sloane[/color], and [color=EE82EE]Vallory[/color] will have to find a way to each other... especially after a "surprise visit" from some "men in costumes."

Whenever Gaia Co. was ready to announce a newly developed software or hardware to the world, it was not uncommon for them to host a press conference. With the demise of GENESIS over the course of the past few years, Gaia absorbed the former technological power resources and people in an effort to boost itself further into dominance. The result, which was the purpose of this press conference in the first place, led to a multimillion dollar state of the art facility known as the Gaia Co. Headquarters in downtown Angel Grove.

A well-dressed man with piercing green eyes took to the podium rooted directly in front of a uniquely constructed building, shaped in the fashion of three spheres and foliage decorating the interior and exterior. [color=48B428]"Good afternoon everyone... to those watching online and [i]especially[/i] my fellow angels of Angel Grove. My name is Augustus Beaumont, Chief Executive Officer of Gaia Company, and I am happy to share this bit of news with you all."[/color] Gesturing his right arm to the building behind him, Augustus offered a proud grin and continued. [color=48B428]"For the past few years, Gaia Co. has been the leading company, [i]internationally[/i], for your technological needs. Cell phones, computers, security systems, televisions, home appliances... you name it, we make it! With the assistance of our civil engineering team, I am ecstatic to announce that Gaia Company Headquarters is now [i]open[/i] for visit!"[/color]

Murmur fell over the audience watching from the other side of the podium, blending in with the clicking sounds of cameras taking photographs. [color=48B428]"Now... you may ask: so what? And I understand that! Our 'so what' is that Gaia Co. wants to be [i]the most[/i] transparent technology company that has ever existed! No longer will you question [i]how[/i] we make our products or [i]why[/i] we make our products... [i]unlike other companies that no longer exist[/i]."[/color] Of course, Augustus was making a clear shot at the defunct GENESIS. [color=48B428]"No... Gaia Co. is intent on providing our customers with the best technological experience in the most natural way. That is the Gaia way. Darius, go ahead and bring those big scissors up here for me, will ya?"[/color]

A similar looking [url=https://static.tumblr.com/e5bd0ae0adb6c799aaa7d9140a458f32/x215yt9/ZYmo04wia/tumblr_static_tumblr_static_6b0nmg0pfhs8swc4o48kg0s80_focused_v3.jpg]man[/url] dressed in a suit, of younger age based on his looks, walked behind the podium where there was a bright green ribbon wrapped around two light poles directly in front of the entrance. He handed the scissors to Augustus and nodded his head. [color=48B428]"My younger brother, ladies and gentlemen,"[/color] he said with a laugh as Darius gave the crowd a quick wave before standing off to the side. [color=48B428]"Gaia Company: Where we go to the future... and take you with us!"[/color] With that, Augustus applied pressure to the handles of the scissors, thus prompting the first day that the all-new Gaia Co. HQ was accepting visitors for tours.

[color=#FA8072]"Look at them... frolicking around without a care in the world. They haven't the slightest clue as to what's in store for them."[/color]

Turning on his heel, the massive creature donned with castle-like structures along his shoulders faced his massive tribe of warriors from the Druidon lair. [i]"Hail Tankjoh! Hail Tankjoh!"[/i] The voices were monotone, but somehow held a level of passion that they were in support of their leader, no matter what he declared. The massive screen behind him was showcasing the Gaia Co. press conference with people now entering into the headquarters for the first time since its opening a few weeks ago.

After a moment, the screen then shifted into another scene, showcasing a short woman dressed in purple garb with a curly bun of brown hair. Glasses were resting on her face as she stood outside of the Angel Grove Diner, seemingly waiting for someone to show up.

Turning to face the screen again, Tankjoh said, [color=#FA8072]"And we haven't forgot about you, Purple Ranger... You have plans to put an end to us, but unfortunately for you, those plans will fail."[/color] Thrusting his right arm to the side, Tankjoh turned his head slightly so that he was looking over his shoulder at the group of [url=https://i.imgur.com/YBCoHaZ.jpg]Drunn Soldiers[/url] standing at the ready. [color=#FA8072]"I want soldiers to attack the city. It's time that this world learns that Druidon [i]was not[/i] defeated and that every knee will bow before us! Move out!"[/color]

[i]"Hail Tankjoh! Hail Tankjoh!"[/i]

[color=#BA55D3]Interacting w/:[/color] No one (yet).[/center]
[color=#BA55D3]"Ugh... I'm gonna barf..."[/color] Charlie said to herself as she watched the Gaia Co. press conference on her phone, feigning a vomiting sound as she walked down the street along the downtown strip, her sights set on the diner that was a good distance away from where she currently was. The weather was transitioning into more of a spring time feeling, so Charlie adjusted as such, sporting a faded black t-shirt that had a picture of the Prince movie 'Purple Rain' on the front of it. She had never seen the movie, but Charlie actually did enjoy some of Prince's songs. Around her lower half, she had a purple flannel shirt, that she had no intentions on wearing around her upper half, draped around her waist and a pair of short light wash denim shorts hugging against her figure. A pair of purple, black and white Jordan 1's rounded out her outfit, her feet stopping in place at a four-way intersection just as the light told her to stop.

[color=#BA55D3]"All they do is fucking brag about what they do. Why not just actually do shit and shut up?"[/color] she mumbled to herself, tugging the AirPods out of her ear and sliding them into her bag draped across her chest. She needed to be in the know about all things technology because, well, that was [i]her[/i] business. Charlie [i]wanted[/i] to work for a company like GENESIS... [i]like Gaia[/i]... but was finding that maybe being a "minion" wasn't what it was cracked up to be anymore. Besides, she had [i]other[/i] business to attend to that needed her attention. As the walkway light showed the white "walking" symbol, Charlie quickly walked across it, lifting her left hand up to glance down at her Power Morpher that doubled as a watch as well as a way for her to check her text messages without needing her phone. She was [i]proud[/i] that she had developed this and the other ones all by herself.

[color=#BA55D3]"God, I hope Jordan shows up..."[/color] she said with a sigh, speeding up her pace as she neared the Angel Grove Diner, pausing at the bottom of the steps to glance around for any sight of the former Blue Ranger. [color=#BA55D3]"I'm starving.. let me just, go ahead and grab our booth."[/color] The diner itself was self-seated and, luckily, there was an open booth big enough for a nice group of people. For a moment, Charlie paused to stare over the empty seats, swearing that she could see the faces of the other fallen Rangers... as well as the ones that were no longer willing to serve. [color=#BA55D3]"Yeah... let me just sit down and eat,"[/color] Charlie said, chuckling to herself and sliding into the booth that was situated near the corner windows.

"Can I get ya anything to drink hun?" the waitress asked, bringing over a few of the laminated double-sided menus. "Also, how many are we feeding today?"

[color=#BA55D3]"Uh... just two. And I'll do a water with a lemon. Thanks,"[/color] Charlie replied with a nod and then began looking out the window. Glancing down at her Power Morpher, she tapped the "message" icon and decided to send Jordan a follow up message.

[center][quote=Charlie]"👋🏽 Hey Jordan. I've got us a booth near the windows whenever you get here. 💜"[/quote][/center]
