Alright, before we begin i just want to mention that there is going to be a heavy dose of O.C. characters(Mainly the villains) in this fic. The idea about this hit me when i got back into watching Power Rangers, after hearing about the movie coming out (P.S. haven't watched it yet.), and i'm trying to follow the general structure of what a power rangers story should be, but don't expect the plot to be for kids like the show itself XD, it has a rating T for a reason. I don't know how i managed to build this up in my head to make sense, but i did. Anyway, hope you enjoy and i welcome Reviews of all kinds :D. Begin!
Chapter 1: The chosen part 1
It was an ordinary spring day at Ashford Academy in the city of Tokyo, Japan. Suzaku Kururugi, the son of the prime minister, was trying to comprehend the physics lesson, but just couldn't seem to concentrate on the teacher's lecture. His desk neighbor wasn't very interested in the lesson, either.
"Hey, Lelouch. Do you feel like going to the roof of the building next brake?" whispered Suzaku to his friend.
"Sure, I'll go grab us something to drink on the way." whispered back his dark haired companion.
Lelouch Lamperouge was the first born son of the English royal family, making him a prince, and he and Suzaku were childhood friends. He was currently studying abroad in Japan.
Both of them, like every other male student, were dressed in the school uniform. Black jacket with golden linings and the school emblem on it along with a white shirt under it. The look was complete by black jeans and black boots.
Their small conversation was interrupted by the teacher.
"Sir Lamperouge, Sir Kururugi. I take it that you want to come over here and share what you were talking about, after you solve this equation." Said the teacher, not pleased that the two boys weren't paying attention to his lesson.
"Yes, Sir." Replied the two boys, as they did as they were told.
Lelouch solved the equation effortlessly, while Suzaku explained their activity to the teacher, who wasn't exactly pleased that the two boys completed their tasks, but decided to let them go.
The two were heading back to their desk at the far right corner of the room, when a tall blond teen stopped them.
"Aren't you going to let us in on your scheming?" joked the boy.
"Not now Gino." Smiled Suzaku, as he and Lelouch sat back at their desk.
Gino Weinberg was a tall blond young man, who was half Italian half German. He was a head taller than the other two boys and was a great friend to them.
On the side, Shirley Fenette, a ginger headed girl who befriended the two boys from the start of school, dressed in the girls uniform, a yellow jacket with the school emblem along with a green shirt and skirt, was sitting in the middle of the room was complaining to herself.
"Oof, why don't Lulu and Suzaku ever pay attention in class?" She thought.
In the front of the classroom was sitting, the nominated princess of the school, Euphemia Karsten, a girl with long pink hair, coming from a well known German family, was giggling at the two boys' mischief. She was also another of Lelouch's childhood friends, since she regularly went over to his place to play with him and his younger siblings.
At the far back, sitting on the desk right beside theirs was Kallen Stadfield, a half English half Japanese red headed girl with a sizeable body and short temper, who was chuckling at the teacher's reaction.
When the brake hit, all of the aforementioned teens met up at the roof and were having a peaceful conversation.
"Gosh! You two are just incomprehensible. You know that the teachers will scold you if you aren't paying attention!" Shirley complained to Lelouch and Suzaku.
"Relax, will ya? It's not like they'll be banned from school." Complained Kallen, irritated from Shirley's nagging.
"Hey hey, lets not fight among ourselves." Gino tried to calm down the two girls.
"Still, you two should really start to take your education seriously." Said Euphemia.
"Yeah, sorry." Apologized Suzaku.
"Hmph, they should first learn to teach their subjects in a more interesting way, then maybe there would be a chance that I would pay attention." Replied Lelouch, with his usual cocky attitude.
"Yeah, yeah. Hey, how about we go to the disco after school?" suggested Gino.
"I'll be with the student council after school, so you'll have to go without me." Said Lelouch.
"You will? Oh, then we can go some other time." Said Shirley disappointed.
"We can always have you skip, no?" asked Gino with a scheming grin.
"Yeah, I'd like to avoid Milly's Wrath, so its not happening." Replied the dark haired boy.
"Gino, don't you have to attend practice for your upcoming match?" asked Euphemia.
"Nah, the guys will be fine without me. Besides, you know that I'm the best baseball player in the school." Replied the blond with a confident smile.
"Your humbleness knows no boundaries." Joked Kallen.
The six teens had become great friends over the years and enjoyed spending time together.
Lelouch looked at his wristwatch and noticed that the bell for the next period was going to ring.
"We should be heading back, if we don't want to be late that is." He said, as he headed over to the staircase.
"Right behind you." Added Suzaku, as he and the rest followed after him.
The school building was quite big and its fancy architecture only added to its prestigious image. The halls and corridors were all neatly designed with lots of windows and fancy lighting. The classrooms differed from one another, but all of them shared a single theme- they didn't look cheap.
While they were walking towards their history class, the group received applauding screams from their fans since all of them were a highly popular thematic for the school populace.
Gino was the ace of the baseball team and as such had a lot of girls hot on his tail.
Suzaku and Kallen were both members of the martial arts club and had the respect of the whole school, since there was once an incident with armed robbery at the school and the two had managed to beat down the criminals and hand them over to the police.
Shirley was a crowd favorite for her optimistic and hard working persona, combined with the fact that she was in the swimming club.
Lelouch and Euphemia, however, were of another class. The dark haired boy was one of the smartest students and his charismatic and cold personality, not to forget his astonishing good looks, drove the rest of the female populace wild, something which he wasn't really fond of. Euphemia was the student which everyone looked up to. The pink haired girl was top of her class along with Lelouch and had a certain charm about her that drove people to rally behind her.
Along the way, Lelouch was pulled over by a rather 'large' blond. This blond was Milly Ashford, daughter of the school chairman and president of the student council.
"Hey Lulu! Guess who gets to spend the rest of the day with his buddies at the student council free from attending classes for the rest of the day?" asked him the blond with a playful smile.
"*sigh* I get the message, Milly. Still, there was no need for you to go out of your like that." Replied the boy, not feeling very encouraged, since he knew that the girl had schemed up something again.
"Well then, I'll relay to the teacher that your out on club duties." Smiled Euphemia.
"Thanks, Euphie. If only you could save me from all of Milly's rambling, too." Said the dark haired boy, muttering the last part, gaining the smiles of his companions and a glare from the student council president.
She tugged him by the ear.
"Ow, ow, ow!" she started to pull harder.
"You are going to do your duties as vice president of the student council, whether you like it or not!" said Milly, as she dragged him.
The group sent off their friend with smiles and waves and hurried toward their class.
Lelouch and Milly entered the student council club-room. They were greeted by the other two members. Rivalz Cardemonde, a blue haired boy with a happy go lucky attitude, and Nina Einstein, the smart and timid green haired girl with glasses, who alongside Lelouch was stuck to deal with the actual work of the group.
"Yo, how ya doin, Lelouch?" said cheerfully Rivalz.
"Hello." Greeted Nina.
Lelouch gave a quick gaze to their president, who was humming happily, most likely due to the fact that another one of her crazy ideas popped up in her head.
He sighed and greeted his friends.
"Hi." He replied blandly, as he sat on his chair.
The other two did the same and prepared to hear Milly's new idea.
The day continued on normally, as school ended and Lelouch had managed to free himself from the tyrannical grasp of the president. On his way out, he encountered the rest of his friends.
"So, how'd it go?" asked him Gino with a smile.
"I don't want to talk about it." Replied Lelouch with an exhausted sigh at the end.
"Must be tough trying to organize things, considering the type of person that our president is." Said Shirley, feeling bad for the boy.
"Look on the bright side, Lelouch. With you helping them, the student council has had a grand improvement in their event planning." Said Euphemia.
"Heh, not like it's a very important job. If you ask me, he is wasting his potential helping them out." Kallen shrugged.
"You're only saying that cause you never come for any of the events planned by the school. They're really fun, you should know." Smiled Gino, as he folded his hands behind his head.
"Try me, blondie." Replied the red head, not interested in the guy's opinion.
"Enough you two-" Lelouch was cut off by a large earthquake, which came west from the school.
It quickly subsided, causing the panic, which had first ensued, to turn into mass confusion.
"What was that?" asked a worried Lelouch.
"We should go and check it out." Suggested Gino.
"Are you insane!?" Shirley yelled.
"I'm with blond boy on this one." Said Kallen.
"I think we should leave the investigation to the police, no?" said Suzaku.
Strangely enough, Euphemia was the one to settle the conversation.
"Let's go, you guys! There might be people who need help!" she said and took off with Gino and Kallen following after her.
"Euphie, wait!" Suzaku ran after them.
"You guys! It might be dangerous!" Shirley did the same.
"Oh, for crying out loud, why do I even bother!?" Lelouch groaned as he took off after the rest, not wanting to see any of them get hurt.
Unknown to anyone, deep in space, on his spaceship was traveling one of the galaxy's most feared rulers- Kreuz.
The fearsome being arrived on the main deck of the cruiser.
"Welcome, my lord!" bowed his minions in the room.
The being in question was almost 7 feet tall and had the appearance of a bipedal dragon, with his grey spiky scales, tail and pair of wings. Blood red and black armor was encasing most of his body and his limbs, silver robes were beneath his armor. He had spikes protruding from the back of his head, with his face encased in a metallic silver mouthpiece, allowing only the upper part of his head to be visible. His eyes were glowing orange with the irises of a snake and the rest of his face was covered with his grey scales.
He sat down on his throne and rested his head on his right arm.
"Report." His voice came like the revving of a sports car.
"Sir, planets PQ23 and RF51 have been put under our domain." Said one of the lackeys.
"Good, soon my empire will be big enough to stand against those of the likes of Zed and Grumm." Mused the ruler.
"Sir, we also have a report that some of our troops in the eastern quadrant of the galaxy have picked up large energy readings from a planet called 'Earth'. It's third in line of the Solar system." Reported another.
"Hmm? Interesting, tell the eastern fleet to send a few scouting parties over there to check the situation. If it turns out to be anything worthwhile I want to hear about it on the next update." Said Kreuz, as he found such an occurrence intriguing.
"Understood, my lord!" bowed the soldiers and went back to work.
"How amusing. The eastern quadrant was the only one without any opposition thus far. It would seem that things won't be as boring as I thought they would." Kreuz thought to himself.
The six friends had gotten deep into a forest, searching for the source of the earthquake.
"Great, we're lost!" panicked Shirley.
"Calm down, will ya?" said Kallen, irritated from the girl's whining.
"Hey, guys. Where's Lelouch?" asked Suzaku concerned for their friend.
"You don't think he got lost in the forest, do you?" replied Euphemia who was also worried.
"Relax. Lelouch's a smart guy, he can handle himself just fine." Gino assured everyone. "Anyway, we shouldn't be much further."
The five continued until they noticed a being in green armor ahead of them. It looked like a woman, though her body was fully covered with dark green and silver armor with the lower part splitting into four long pieces of clothing of the same palette. Her head was covered by a dark green helmet with a silver symbol across the front, which looked like a bird flapping its wings.
She noticed their presence and looked at them.
"No, you're not the one I'm looking for." She shook her head in disappointment.
"Huh? What do you mean?" asked Suzaku confused.
"No, the more important question is who are you and what are you doing here?" said Kallen narrowing her eyes at the woman.
Just then a bunch of strange humanoid creatures appeared in a flash of light. They looked reptilian, though they were bipedal with grey scales and black armor.
The masked woman wasn't really pleased from the sight.
"Ugh great. Gushters." She sighed, as she dodged a few of the attacks of the said enemies.
The five teens were shaken up at first, but when the things started to attack them, Suzaku and Kallen fought back. Gino helped them, while Shirley and Euphemia got behind them.
The group was pushed to the ground.
"What are those things?" groaned Kallen in pain.
"*pant* They're really tough." Grunted Gino.
"Are you ok?" asked Euphemia concerned, as she and Shirley ran over to their friends.
"We're fine. Both of you, get back!" Suzaku yelled, trying to protect the two girls as one of the things attacked them.
He was sent to the ground from the hit, causing the two girls to gasp with shock. They found an old big piece of a log and shattered it in the thing's head, causing it to fall to the ground.
"Ho? It would seem that the five of you aren't as bad as I thought you were." Said the masked woman in green, as she effortlessly kicked a few of the minions out of her way.
"Well, since all of you will most likely die at this rate, I'm going to leave you a present for entertaining me." She said, as she created five crystals with a strange energy in her palm.
The five teens watched in confusion as the woman dropped the crystals in front of them and turned around.
"Hope none of you bite the dust. See ya." She waved and disappeared in a mist of green energy.
"What was her deal?!" asked Kallen shocked.
"I don't know, but she left these for us, so I suggest we get to doing something with these crystals before these things do us in!" replied Gino, as each of the teens rushed to get one of the stones.
Suzaku grabbed a white one, Kallen a red, Gino a blue, Shirley a yellow and Euphemia a pink one. As soon as they did that the crystals disappeared from their hands.
"What?! Now what are we supposed to do?!" panicked Shirley, failing to notice a change that was affecting the five teenagers.
Their eyes started to glow with the color of the crystal they had taken and in their eyes were symbols similar to that of the masked woman's visor.
"Whoa, Suzaku your eyes!" Gino was amazed.
"Yours, too!" exclaimed Kallen.
"Euphie, it's the same with you!" said Suzaku, as he noticed the pink symbol in the girl's eyes.
The Gushters were charging at them, leaving them unable to marvel at each others' strange changes.
"Here they come again!" Said Kallen preparing herself.
"Hyah!" Suzaku threw a punch at one of the things.
The white symbol in his eyes flared up and his attack caused a shockwave, which knocked the other armored lizards to fall to the ground.
"Suzaku, how did you do that?" asked Shirley amazed.
"Look, his eyes flared up, when that power activated." Pointed out Euphemia.
Suzaku was still taken aback from the feat he had achieved.
"Alright! If Suzaku could do it, I can do it better!" proclaimed Gino with a huge grin, as the blue symbol in his eyes subconsciously flared up.
He dashed at insane speeds through the monsters and knocked them to the ground.
"Sweet! Man, this is awesome!" he proclaimed.
Some of the monsters charged at Kallen.
"Take this!" she yelled and her eyes flared up.
She swung at the beasts and when her punch connected a blast erupted, sending the lizards flying.
"Eek!" screamed Shirley, as she was about to be attacked, but her eyes flared up and a stream of yellow lightning surrounded her body and fried the attacker.
Euphemia was surrounded by a group of the monsters.
"Euphie!" Suzaku rushed over to her, only to see her eyes flare up and the wind around her became like cables, which sliced through the monsters.
"Suzaku, what is this?" she asked scared.
"Everything will be okay, somehow, you just have to trust me, ok?" he hugged and tried to reassure her.
"O-Ok." She replied hugging him back.
Gino and Kallen proceeded to beat down the other lizards until they were all lying on the ground.
"Ok, with this taken care of, I suggest we figure out what these strange powers are." Said Gino, liking his new ability.
"And who was that woman, anyway?" asked Shirley, even more confused at the situation.
"I believe that I can answer all of your questions, but you must come with me." Came a man's voice.
Somewhere else in the forest, Lelouch had gotten lost trying to find his friends.
"Damn it, I lost them! I sure hope they're alright." He said, as he sat on a tree stump.
He was soon surrounded by a large group of the same lizards, which appeared as instantly as before.
"What the?! What are these things and where did they come from?!" he jumped back from his seat, shock and fear taking over him.
He tried to run away, but quickly noticed that he was surrounded. He received a blow from one of the creatures and was sent to the ground.
"No, this can't be the way it ends! Not when I still have so much to do!" Lelouch said terrified.
In that moment, the woman in green and silver appeared and kicked all of the lizards away.
"Wha?!" Lelouch was confused at the sight of his savior.
She turned to look at him, with her helmet hiding her face.
"I've finally found you." She said.
Lelouch became speechless from what was happening. Everything was illogical. He hated when there was something he couldn't perceive.
She walked over and leaned closer to him.
"You don't want things to end, right? What do you say? If I give you power, power unlike anything you've dreamed of, which you can use as you wish, and in return you owe me a favor? Do you accept this contract?" asked him the woman.
Lelouch, being in a life or death situation, didn't have much choice. Furthermore, he wasn't about to let an opportunity like this slip by him. Power was something he could use in the future to achieve his plans.
He looked at the woman with resolve in his eyes.
"I accept your contract." He stated with a serious and unwavering tone.
The woman smiled under her mask and extended her right hand towards the boy. In it was a black crystal glowing with dark purple energy.
"This is now yours." She replied, as he took the crystal and it disappeared.
Lelouch felt strange for a moment, then he felt a change in his body. It felt stronger than usual, no, stronger than a normal human body. He also felt a tingling sensation in his eyes.
When he opened them, there was a reddish purple glowing symbol in them.
"Go on, try out your new power." The woman said, as she pointed to the group of lizards that was getting back up.
The dark haired boy frowned as he saw them stand up.
"I order all of you… to die!" he said, as his eyes flared up and entranced the creatures, which began to kill each other off.
Lelouch and the woman now stood across a pool of dead bodies and blood.
The mysterious woman turned over to look at the boy, only to notice his reaction.
At first he had a terrified look on his face, but it suddenly turned into a malicious grin.
"This incredible power, oh the wonders I could do with it!" the boy thought to himself.
"Well then…" Lelouch's sick smile grew.
Done! I don't know why, but i'm really satisfied with the whole idea for this story and i'm most likely going to continue writing on it and post updates, but only when i feel like it. In short, my schedule will be something like 2 to 4 chapters a month for this story. I went with our real life earth and not the Code Geass earth because i felt like it XD, plus it's easier for me to think up events and their locations this way. Anyway, hope you enjoyed this first chapter and if there was something that you'd like me to explain feel free to message me or write it in the review section. I also welcome criticism and reader ideas, for i believe it broadens my view of the story and gives me more things to think about and work with :D. Thank you for reading and i wish you a great day!
