One I do not own any of this the rangers to Saban and Disney HP belongs to JKR and Charmed belongs to the WB.
I have had various story ideas like this come up and have the beginnings to like two or three other stories with HP and the Rangers crossed over.
One Year Earlier
An old man in robes climbed a hill, and looked down into a valley. He looked down on three different groups that were busy with their training. They were divided into groups of color Red, Blue and Yellow. Training for the day had already begun he was pleased to see. Master Watanabe sighed, as he watched three of his former students teach the elements Air, Water, and Earth to the next generation of ninja. He was proud of them all, he had taught them well. First as ninjas, then as Rangers, they had learned many lessons over the years. He was only sad that it was about to change on them once again. He remembered the prophecy that he had heard a long time ago that spoke of the Grim Son. Soon it would be time for the Grim Son to be found. He was supposed to be a legend in his own right, and be brother with another legend. The only hard part in that, would be finding the Grim Son, whom he supposed was frozen in time somewhere or other. He wasn't sure why he though it would be soon, he just knew that the time was approaching. The only clue he had could mean something else entirely.
He also had an idea what a reference meant, and if he was right, at least some, if not all of his former students would once again rise up for battle.
He waited and watched, as yet another group of ninjas were sent away for the day. A few of them joined in groups of multiple colors, while others stayed in their own orders. The man sighed in disappointment at this. These were the ones that needed to learn the value of teamwork the most. By mixing with the others they were more powerful because they had more than one element at their disposal. He greeted his three teachers, waiting for an old friend to show up. He looked at the three in speculation. Shane, the Ninja Master of Air, and skateboard fanatic, was dark skinned his black ninja uniform was trimmed with the red of his element. The dark haired young man he had trained as a boy, and was a confident leader that he was proud of. Dustin, Ninja master of Earth and dirt bike racer was much paler in complexion than either of his fellow teachers, since he was often wearing a helmet that covered his entire face. The teacher who wore a yellow trimmed uniform was still slightly scatter brained, and often made mistakes. But the brown haired, blue-eyed young man was still a power to reckon with. Then there was gentle Tori, Ninja Mistress of Water, and an accomplished surfer. The blonde beauty was a nice bronze from all of the time she spent out in the sun, but no where near as dark as Shane who's Asian features were as much as why as his time spent in the sun. The young woman who for the most part was as gentle as the lake that guarded the entrance to the Academy, but when angered she was as fierce as a typhoon. Her uniform was trimmed with a cheery light blue. It was hard to believe that two years ago, these three had been the Power Rangers that had defeated Lothar from taking the world.
"Hey sensei!" Dustin greeted excitedly, a grin on his face. "Is something up? Cause last time we got called up to a cliff like this we got to be rangers again. Which is kind of a mixed thing." He said, as he shivered under the glares that his fellow teachers and teammates were sending him. "Considering the morphers were evil at the time."
"I believe the time shall be soon for the arrival of a new threat, one that will affect more than just us. When the time comes, all I ask is that you be ready. I can not tell you more than that, as I know no more than this at the moment."
"We'll be ready sensei." Shane promised.
"I want all of you to be ready." Their mentor continued. "That includes Cam, Hunter and Blake as well."
"We'll be ready dad." Another figure said, as it ninja streaked onto the mountain with two others. Sensei Watanabe nodded, as his son arrived with the other two members of the Ranger team. His son Cam Watanabe had a tall wiry Asian figure, and wore glasses. Cam unlike the others was samurai, as the green in his uniform told. Personally he couldn't be prouder of the path that his son was set upon. The man then turned to look at the other two members of the team. The Bradley brothers hardly looked like brothers, but sometimes there was more to family than looks. Hunter the older of the two, was a blond Caucasian, with blue eyes and shaggy dirty blonde hair. The Crimson Thunder Ninja Master while sometimes arrogant; was also very protective of those that he cared for. His adopted brother Blake, had a more oriental look to him though. The Navy Thunder Ninja was the calmer and quieter of the two, less prone to let his temper lead him. Though when he was angered it was something to behold.
"Something is coming sensei?" Hunter asked curious what it was that could be a threat to them. They were stronger now than either of the times when Lothar had attacked them. True they were no longer Rangers, but they could still cause some serious damage.
"Yes." The old man said knowingly. "Cam has been experimenting with the morphers, and says that the Morpher merely lack power. If they were to find something to renew their power they could still become active once again."
"No offense Sensei, but we already know that." Dustin said.
"True, but the time may come when we will need to find a new source of power for them faster than we thought. Especially you Hunter." Sensei said giving him a piercing look.
"Me why me?"
A person of prophecy shall be studying under you that is why. And when he comes it will bring many things that we do not care for." The ninja master explained to his former student. "Perhaps this will help." The man said as he noticed the blank looks that he was receiving. He removed a scroll from the sleeve of his robe, and began reading to them.
The Chosen warrior of Thunder comes. Born of a house of darkness the Grim son comes. The Grim son shall be known as his father's child, due to the Paladin colors he wore on yesterday's battles. The twice time lost Grim son, shall take his place uniting three worlds. Found by the young wolf of science, and the old wolf of magic. His body though young, his mind shall be experienced in a number of battles. The chosen warrior of Thunder shall take the crimson Paladin as his new master.
The Crimson Paladin shall call upon his closest allies, and train the warriors of yesterday and today in their forgotten arts merged with the powers of the beasts that the students shall teach them to them. United, they shall be a new breed of Paladin.
The cry of the animal spirits shall sound once again, as the Legendary Rainbow Falcon comes to his brother's side. United once again shall the legendary warrior brothers fight together. The Rainbow Falcon shall come bearing memories of powers both old and new, bearing upon its shoulders new and old warriors allies to help in a coming war. The Thunder Warrior shall take his warrior spirit beast and show his destined colors. His warrior ride shall burn a fiery path of justice through the worlds of darkness.
"So Crimson Thunder huh?" Dustin said looking at his fellow Ninja Master. "What makes you think this is going to be happening soon sensei?"
"I have been having dreams and visions much like Hunter here has been having."
"Hunter?" The other ninjas looked at their friend for an explanation.
"Yeah I've been having them." Hunter admitted under the combined stares. "Sensei and I have been trying to figure out what they mean though. This is the first I've heard of a prophecy though. Why do you think this prophecy has anything to do with this anyway though Sensei?" The blonde questioned.
"Because of the one of the objects that is shown in the dream."
"The disks?"
"Indeed. Recall this line if you will. Bearing memories of powers both old and new,
"You think this might mean Ranger powers?"
"Yes."
"What disks?"
"The disks from our morphers, only they looked different." Hunter explained.
"Why don't you start from the beginning?" Tori asked, "it might help make things a bit more clearer for us."
"All right, but try not to ask to many questions all right?" The Ninjas all nodded in agreement. "There's the sound of thunder coming from all over, and the amount of power that I can feel coming from whoever or whatever is immense. Its like when you feel Sensei going at you full throttle with everything that he has on just one element, or a lot of people with the same element in the same room. Only I think this is just the raw unrefined power of someone or someone's. Then I start seeing stuff, it starts with nine golden coins like from a pirate ship or something. Only they're about as big as a half dollar, maybe bigger. Anyways, they have these strange markings on them that I can't quite make out. I think they're some kind of animals though, and they're all glittering in specific colors."
"What colors?"
"Well one of them is red, with a bit of green, like it was just partially put in. Then there's another red one, and a blue and pink one. Then there are two yellows and two blacks. The last one though was a combination of green and white glitter. After a while they started to spin really slowly, and I could see another animal on the other side of them. And I still couldn't really make out what kind of animals, just that they were there. Well, then I started to hear animal calls. While three of the coins kind of took a back step, and the colors seemed to get brighter, except for the green. It seemed to get dimmer, and the coins split in half each side had a different kind of animal on, it but I still can't tell you what they were. Lets see, then a new pink coin joined the group, and the other pink went away somewhere. The only difference in this one though was that it was spinning like that was all there was on the coin. After that, there was a change. There were these pieces of crystal or something. Anyways, all of the coins got behind the different colored coins and the animals stopped making as much noise like something was blocking them. This big red one was behind the white and green coin, a blue crystal got behind the red coin, the green one moved behind the black, and pink moved behind pink, but the yellow and blue coins disappeared. Then that red and green coin came back, only there was this odd sick thing by it, and it was giving a kind of golden glow. Then the gold stick thing goes away with the coin, though I did see something odd about it I can't be sure. Then tires or something covered the crystals like that. After that they left they were replaced with new tires, and then its like a blur for a while. I remember seeing lots of different animals and things, then I see the disks for our morphers, and Cam's amulet. Then the dino thunder teams gems, the only thing is the black gem is covering the red crystal and green and white coin. Then when that's done I hear a whole group of new animals, and I see all of the ones that I saw earlier come back. Only now they were all glowing specific colors. Then a white owl with these intense green eyes looked at me, it looked like its trying to tell me something. Then I see the Ninja elemental symbols swirling around, theirs lots of them too. Each one of the symbols finally finds a coin or combination to connect to. The last thing I remember seeing is a big black dog looking at one of the things then smiling I think at one of them. Then it looks over its shoulder at an eagle, a wolf, a lynx, and a fox. Then the dog, well it's like it falls when two sets of eyes come into view. One of them is red, and they're full of dread and such stuff. The other set is blue, and its like they just make you want to trust them. They look at the symbols and stuff, but don't seem to be as interested as the wolf whose looking where the dog was. When the eyes are gone, then all of the various things start glowing, and right before I wake up I see this weird symbol like a circle with three drops in it, or a propeller and each of the pieces is glowing a different color as well." Hunter shrugs in confusion, lost at what the dreams and visions mean.
"That's some pretty intense stuff man." Blake says, clapping his brother on the shoulder sympathetically. "You honestly think this prophecy and the dreams are connected Sensei?" He asked looking up.
"Yes I do."
"And why, if we ask that is Sensei?" Shane asked curiously.
"Because, right before Lothar returned the first time I experienced dreams that signified you each." Sensei Watanabe said, "And I would not be surprised if after tonight that you each begin experiencing dreams and visions of your own. Something is coming, and it will require all of our powers and more to defeat what is coming."
"You can count on us to do our part sensei." Dustin said eagerly. "We'll do everything that we can to figure it all out."
"I am glad you all feel that way Dustin." Sensei said, as he hid the scroll back in his robes. "Let us hope the others that are involved in this are as ready as we hope to be." The Ninjas nodded, as they wondered what it was that could be coming to cause dreams and visions to appear like they had.
"So do we contact the dino Thunder Team and tell Kira and the others to be ready, or do we leave them in the dark for now?" Blake questioned, he didn't even notice the dangerous scowl that Tori was sending his way. He was more concerned for his brother at the moment. The others smirked, knowing that Tori was jealous at how the yellow Dino Thunder ranger, and Blake were on a first name basis it seemed.
"I think we should contact Tommy at the very least. These other emblems of power may mean something to him, and he may be able to tell us." Cam said. "For all we know they are the source of other Ranger Powers."
"But is that right? I mean if we're wrong and this is still some time off, then he'll have gathered the dino Thunder team together for no reason. Cause you know if this concerns them he'll contact them man. And the Dino's are all in college right now anyways. We can't just ask them to drop everything and come help us prepare for a war that might be happening soon or might be happening in five years." Shane argued.
"Yeah he's right dudes. For all we know, we could be like damaging the prophecy if we were to go and tell everyone about it dudes." Dustin said.
"But with the information we could learn from Tommy we could be better prepared." Cam argued back at the other two.
Sensei stopped the disagreement with a wave of his hands. "This is a troubling problem we have, and we shall need to consider all of our options before we decide what it is that we must do. Cam, Shane you have both brought up good reasons for your arguments, making whatever decision we make a hard one. I hope though, that when the time comes, that you will respect my decision and will present a united front with me no matter what I choose to do." Both young men nodded in agreement with his request. "That is good. Return to your duties for now, whatever they may be. I want all of you to meditate on this problem though, there is no telling what we may learn from each of your different point of views in this matter. We shall discuss this more another day"
"Yes Sensei." They all said, and bowed to the man that had been there guide during some of their troublesome times.
