A/N:

Greetings friends! Today, I bring you a new story, this time centering around the universe of Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers, which had recently become one of my favorite shows to binge-watch on Netflix. Very recently, I have become inspired to write this story because I've fallen in love with the gritty tone of the 2017 remake, but I also love those classic characters. I decided that I wanted to create my own universe, my own canon for Power Rangers, where it's set in modern day. Keep in mind, this will be my own version of how I would have personally done it, so Billy in this story never super-aged and went off to another planet. Kimberly and Tommy never broke up and are happily married. Jason now owns the Youth Center in Angel Grove and is a karate instructor. In this continuity, yes, Zordon is dead, but Alpha and the Command Chamber are still very much so around. Here's the summary:

Twenty-five years after the years of Mighty Morphin and Zeo, the Rangers are all living lives of their own. Tommy and Kimberly are happily married with two daughters, Roxanne and Brianna, who are now students at Angel Grove High School with their own set of friends, Georgiana "Gia" Marco, Robert "Bobby" Hanson, Casey Adams, and Jacob "Jake" Black. Everything seems to be going their way. Brianna and Roxanne are accomplished black belts, following in their father Tommy and their godfather Jason's footsteps. However, fate strikes the six teenagers when they are hanging out at the beach of Angel Grove, and they find six Zeo Ranger crystals buried under the ocean, gifting them with the spirit animals of the Falcon, the Crane, the Bear, the Frog and the Ape. It is then they learn they have been chosen to become the next line up of the Power Rangers, and Roxanne and Brianna learn they have been selected to take on the legacy of not only their father and mother, but their respective godparents Billy Cranston, Jason Scott, Aisha Campbell and Katherine Hillard. As the newest "teenagers with attitude", what adventures would these six teenagers go on? What does the future hold for them? Can Roxanne and Brianna take on their parents' and godparents' legacies of being superheroes?

Chapter 1

Oliver Home – Kitchen

The smell of sizzling bacon, coffee and cinnamon filled the air of the Oliver home. World-renowned paleontologist and teacher Thomas "Tommy" Oliver sat at the kitchen table in his home, drinking his morning cup of coffee. As he read his morning paper, he looked over at his wife, Kimberly Hart-Oliver, who was cooking breakfast.

Twenty-five years have passed. Tommy and Kimberly found that they were in a happy marriage in their Angel Grove home they now occupied. Tommy, now thirty-five years old, was happy and at peace. After having a successful career as a paleontologist as well as being a mentor to the Dino Thunder team, Tommy settled for a quiet life with Kimberly. The two had gotten married, and had given life to two, beautiful daughters. Both girls were now students at Angel Grove High School, where Tommy and their godfather, Billy Cranston, were teachers. Billy had retired from being a chemist, and went on to being Angel Grove High's chemistry and biology teacher. Tommy taught at the high school as an anthropology and biology teacher, and proved to excel at his job. To think that he and Billy had gone back to become teachers was something the father of two thought would never happen.

Kimberly found success in her own right, as well. After having brought home gold for the United States in gymnastic, Kimberly went back to being a gym teacher, as well as the high school's cheerleading coach. The proud parents of two couldn't be more thrilled.

As Kimberly was preparing breakfast for the girls, she could hear Roxanne coming down the stairs.

"Oh shit . . . I hear Roxanne!" Kimberly whispered, rushing to grab Roxanne lunch out of the fridge which she had packed away. She rushed to pack the clementine she'd sliced into pieces into a plastic, zip-lock.

"Kim, Kim, we don't have to be at school for another twenty-five minutes," Tommy said.

"Don't you remember your tardiness record in high school? Do you want that for our kids?" Kim quipped.

"Good point," Tommy said with a sigh as Roxanne came in, wearing a pair of jeans and a white t-shirt, something she wore almost daily. Her thick, dark hair was tied in a French braid.

"Mom, Mom, why are you rushing?" Roxanne asked.

"Do you want to be late for your first day of tenth grade?" Kimberly asked, standing there in her pink workout clothes and running shoes, her hair tied in a braid.

Roxanne sighed as she sat at the table, her cinnamon oatmeal and bacon placed in front of her as Brianna came into the room.

Although Roxanne and Brianna were sisters, they couldn't be more different. Roxanne was a struggling student who focused more on her karate than her academics. Brianna on the other hand had blue tips on the ends of her hair, wore glasses, and was a straight-A student who excelled in not only karate, but also aspired to become an actress on Broadway.

Brianna's hair was curled slightly, and she was wearing perfume and lip gloss, something her father couldn't help but take notice to. Although Brianna was a straight-A student, she was also a freshman and fourteen years old. She was at the age where she was sneaking out of the house to meet boys. For Tommy, he didn't like the idea. But he also had a very relaxed relationship with his girls.

"Dude, do I smell perfume?" Tommy asked Brianna.

"Yeah, I took a shower," Brianna giggled as she sat at the breakfast table.

"Uh-huh," Tommy said, narrowing his eyes. He knew when a girl was trying to impress a guy. Kimberly would get all shy yet flirtatious when they'd first met. He watched as Brianna and Roxanne pulled out their phones.

"Can we have breakfast without cell phones, please?" Kimberly asked with a sigh as she sipped her second cup of coffee.

Both teenagers sighed heavily.

"Look, you two girls have got twice the amount that we had growing up," Kimberly pointed out.

"We know, Mom. And I know that I am fortunate enough to have two parents who support what I want to do," said Roxanne.

"It's like we've told you girls. You can come back home whenever you wish. But the goal is to get out of Angel Grove," Tommy said.

"Then why'd you come back? I thought you were successful in Reefside," Brianna asked.

"Because this was where we wanted to spend the next half of our lives," Kimberly said. "And we wanted to be closer to your godparents. Anyways, I know you got your schedules. Roxanne, do you have Uncle Billy for chemistry?"

"First period," Roxanne said.

"Alright. When you see Billy be sure to give him our love," said Kim.

"Don't know how that would somehow make me do better in science class," quipped Roxanne.

"That's all procrastination, and lack of discipline," Brianna said, crossing her arms over her chest with a smile.

"Your sister's right," Tommy said. "Okay, girls. Finish up with breakfast so we can all get to school early. Today's not just first day of classes. It's orientation day."

Roxanne and Brianna both nodded, finishing their breakfast before putting their dishes into the sink. Both girls grabbed their backpacks before going into their parents' van. The ride to Angel Grove High School was silent as Roxanne and Brianna listened to music in the car. Before they knew it, they were at the high school and heading into the auditorium, where they were to find out who else was in their homeroom class. Walking inside, they were happy to see their usual group of their four best friends, Georgiana "Gia" Marco, Robert "Bobby" Hanson, Casey Adams, and Jacob "Jake" Black.

Gia's flaming red hair and blue eyes made her stand out, add to that, she was a skilled dancer and gymnast. Bobby was striving to be president of the debate club and young scientists of America club while Brianna was hoping for role of treasurer. Bobby was blonde, tanned, wore glasses and had a very high grade-point average. While his grades gave him and Brianna something to connect on, Bobby was also pegged as a know-it-all and a teacher's pet. As a result, he was often teased for it.

Casey was of Vietnamese descent on his mother's side and was fluent in Spanish, Japanese and French, and his long, dark hair made him irresistible with the girls. Lastly, there was Jake. Olive-skinned, light brown eyes and dark brown hair, Jake was a skilled football player and baseball player.

"Hey, Olivers," said Jake with a grin as he slapped Brianna on the back. Brianna pounded her fist against his. Her, Jake and Bobby were in the same grade while Gia, Roxanne and Casey were in the same grade. Being a year apart was convenient for Roxanne and Brianna, because they shared the same group of friends.

"Salutations, Brianna, Roxanne," Bobby said with a smile.

Brianna grinned at Bobby, brushing her blue-ended brown hair out of her face. Roxanne shared a grin with Gia as she sat down next to the redhead. Just as the kids were in a good mood to be back in school, they could hear faint, annoying laughter coming from the auditorium.

"Oh no," groaned Casey, rolling his eyes.

"Bulk and Skull," Roxanne said in disdain at the sighting of Spike Skullovitch and Frances Bulkmeier. The six teens could only hope they wouldn't face harassment from Bulk and Skull, two teenagers who had gotten held back in Angel Grove High for a few years. Apparently, their parents had been classmates of Tommy and Kimberly, which gave Roxanne and Brianna much more of a desire to stay away. They were relieved however when their principal, Principal Carter, gave his speech. When it was announced that Gia, Casey and Roxanne were all sharing the same homeroom, the kids couldn't help but feel relief. They gathered their books and headed towards chemistry with their teacher Billy Cranston.

Billy Cranston was more than just an old, family friend of Tommy and Kimberly. Not only was he Roxanne's science teacher, but he was also her godfather. He'd always been close to her and her sister, and even though he wasn't blood, the girls called him "Uncle Billy." But Roxanne knew when she walked into his classroom, she had to call him "Mr. Cranston." Roxanne, Casey and Gia took their seats at the lab tables, awaiting on the arrival of Billy.

Billy arrived in the classroom, wearing his white lab coat and his hair smoothed back. Writing his name on the board, he said, "Greetings, everyone. My name is Mr. Cranston and I will be your chemistry teacher this year. Time for roll call. Casey Adams . . ." Billy went down the list until he said, "Roxanne Oliver!"

"Present!" Roxanne said, raising her hand.

Billy's eyes softened slightly at the sight of his goddaughter. While he was pleased that she was in his class, he also wasn't going to go easy on her. Despite Roxanne being his goddaughter, he had very high expectations for her and held her to them. After Billy went through the rest of roll call, gave out his syllabus and explained what the course entailed, he let his students go to their next class of the day. However, there was one student he wanted to speak with.

"Roxanne, may I have a word with you?" he asked her.

Roxanne nodded politely towards her "uncle." She walked up to his desk.

"Roxy," he said, using his nickname for her. "As you know, your science grades last semester in your dad's class verified to be inferior than I would like to see in here. It had placed you on academic probation."

"You know science and math aren't my subjects. I'd passed with D pluses," Roxanne said.

"I'm just telling you this, because I expect more out of you in here. This is the next level of science you must take and it's going to necessitate you to work harder. What are the three things I consider to be the most imperative that you apply to your quotidian life?" Billy asked her.

"Honor, courage, respect," Roxanne said.

"Exactly; therefore, I would hearten you to recognize that if you need to ask for help, you respect and honor others enough to allow them to aid you. I want to see you pass, and I am not talking about just getting by. I want to see you do better, because I know you're bright, you're exquisite; you're endowed. You just need to hone in on it and focus it. I know that you can, because I really believe in you," Billy said.

Roxanne nodded. Billy always seemed to know what to say to her to get through to her. "Thanks, Mr. Cranston," she said.

Billy gave her a gentle smile and squeezed her shoulder. "Class is over, Roxanne."

"Uncle Billy," Roxanne said with a chuckle as Billy hugged her gently and kissed her forehead.

"Alright, go off to class. I'll see you and your sister and Aunt Kat, and Uncle Jason at dinner," Billy said. Before Roxanne left the room, however, Billy added, "Oh, and if you need any assistance with geometry, just ask me."

"What about chemistry?" Roxanne asked.

"Do you covet me to just bestow you the resolutions, or do you want to receive your grade?" Billy quipped.

Roxanne smiled. "Guess you know me better than I thought," she said.

Underwater Command Chamber

Somewhere deep under the waters of Angel Grove's ocean, there remained a hidden fortress. The darkness of the technological cave and the coldness made it eerily calm. But the exception was the sound of soft beeping, and the quiet noises of "Ay-yi-yi" filled the air. The gentle form of Alpha Five, the peaceful robot who had aided the original Power Rangers team was strolling about, monitoring everything.

The sweet, innocent, caring robot found he was awakening again for what felt like another ten thousand years. After the death of the Rangers' mentor, Zordon, Alpha had never truly left. In fact, the droid had managed to create himself a second Command Chamber under the sea of Angel Grove. Never once did the bot ever think about leaving, not even after the Rangers had grown up and had families of their own.

Alpha Five found that he was observing the viewing globe, watching over his Rangers. He'd watched over the years as Tommy went on to become a Rangers legend. He'd watched as Tommy and Kimberly got married and had two daughters together. He'd watched as some Rangers, such as Trini, have fallen. But nevertheless, Alpha felt the need to always be there.

The robot smiled warmly at the sight of Kimberly and Tommy's daughters Roxanne and Brianna. Both were now fourteen and fifteen, and already proving to inherit their parents' traits. Both girls were skilled in martial arts and had a fighting spirit.

Suddenly, the blinking on the computers in the new Command Chamber Alpha now occupied caught his attention. Turning to the computers in the chamber, he could see alerts of an anomaly.

"Ay-yi-yi-yi-yi!" Alpha said. "I do not understand!" he added as he turned his attention towards the Viewing Globe in the Chamber. Before Alpha's very eyes, he could see a monstrous figure towering over. He appeared to be a monster beyond anything any Ranger had ever faced before. His skin was made of red scales that appeared to be a form of armor. He had glowing, purple eyes, and a face that was distorted.

"If only Zordon were still here," wept Alpha as he thought of his late master who had sacrificed himself years ago. Zordon's sacrifice had allowed the Rangers' most dangerous villains such as Rita Repulsa and Lord Zedd to turn to the side of good. However, Alpha continued with trying to run a diagnostic on who this mysterious new monster was. From what he could see, this monster appeared to be in Angel Grove. One would never think evil such as this would come back to the quiet town.

As Alpha continued struggling with gathering statistics on this new foe, a thought suddenly clicked with him. He knew that most of the Rangers were now residents of Angel Grove. Katherine and Jason had both bought the Youth Center and were certified karate and dance instructors. Kimberly was a cheer coach and gym teacher at Angel Grove High School, and Tommy and Billy were now science teachers. From what Alpha knew, Aisha was in Africa with Rocky, her husband. Zach was still in the Peace Conference in Switzerland. Tanya and Adam from what he knew were on a third honeymoon in England. Unfortunately, their former yellow Ranger, Trini, had been killed in a car accident back in 2001.

Alpha proceeded to look for Tommy, Billy, Kimberly, Jason and Kat's locations, finding them in their respective jobs. Kimberly was currently holding cheerleading try-outs. Tommy and Billy were in a staff meeting with other science teachers. Kat was teaching a dance class. Jason was teaching a karate class for the kids. Additionally, Tommy and Kimberly's daughters were at the Youth Center with their friends Gia, Bobby, and Casey, practicing their martial arts and gymnastics. Jake however was on the football field at practice. Alpha instantly knew that now was not the time to contact his former Rangers.

Youth Center and Juice Bar

'Alright, this move is a piece of cake,' though Gia as she stood up on the balance beam, practicing her gymnastics. She was dressed in her usual hot pink and black work-out gear. She managed to pull off an impressive back-flip on the beam, earning her applause from those witnessing.

"Nice work there, Gia," praised Brianna with a smile from where she stood next to Bobby in Jason's karate class.

"Thanks Brianna," Gia said brightly.

"You know, Gia. I could always use some help with the dance classes here," said Kat with a smile, her Australian accent coming through heavily.

"I appreciate the offer, Kat, but between my gymnastics competitions and my dance competitions and school, I don't have time," Gia said, proceeding to get back onto the beam to continue practicing. "However, I do have some down time tomorrow. Why don't you say we go to Angel Grove beach before the semester starts getting busy? We can do some scuba diving. Bobby, I know you've been dying to test out your underwater camera to take pictures of the sea life."

"I could be down for that," Roxanne said, flashing her friend a smile.

Bobby was finding it hard, however, to keep up with Jason's karate class. Casey, Roxanne and Brianna were naturals, however. Both Oliver girls having a black belt for a father and a blue belt for a godparent most certainly helped a lot. Jason seemed to sense that Bobby was having difficulty. When it came to athletics, the young man was a remedial student.

"Bobby, everyone learns at their own pace," Jason said, leaning a hand on his student's shoulder. "Even I was a beginner once. I'm sure Mr. Cranston – your science teacher, could say the same about himself. He thought he did not have what it took, either."

Bobby nodded. "Thank you, Jason," he said.

"Alright guys, let's take fifteen minutes, and we can resume the session. Katherine, you want to help me check inventory on the equipment?" Jason said.

"Sure Jase," Kat said with a smile as they headed off towards the supplies closet. Just as they entered, the former Pink and Red Rangers felt a surging energy surrounding them, an energy that they hadn't felt for a long time.

"Kat, do you know what's happening?" Jason asked her.

"It feels like we're about to be teleported. We haven't experienced this since –" Kat said, before swirls of red and pink surrounded both her and Jason. The two adults soon found themselves in a dark hallway, and they were not alone, either. With them were Tommy, Billy and Kimberly.

"Let me guess, you guys, too?" Jason asked.

"You could say that, bro," Tommy said.

"We haven't undergone anything quite like that since our Ranger days," Billy said with a sigh.

"Well, where are we?" Kim asked.

"I don't know. Stay close, alright?" Tommy said quietly, holding his wife's hand tightly in his own. Suddenly, they could hear the soft cries of an "Ay-yi-yi-yi" that sounded all too familiar to the former Rangers.

"What?" asked Kimberly.

"It sounds like Alpha," Billy explained, leading them down the halls to what seemed to be a doorway entry. Walking inside the doorway, they could see dozens of computers turned on, as well as the familiar form of Alpha Five. For the former Rangers, it was a sight that brought them all a sense of warmth and relief.

"Alpha!" Kimberly said, her and Billy being the first ones to run up to him and embrace him.

"Billy, Kimberly, Tommy, Katherine; Jason! It's so good to see you, ay-yi-yi!" Alpha cried out. Kimberly could see tears forming in the eyes of the small robot.

"Alpha, don't cry you'll rust up," Kimberly said with a gentle smile, remembering.

"Alpha, what are you doing here, buddy?" asked Tommy.

"I've been here ever since after Zordon died, Tommy," Alpha replied. "I created this Command Chamber here deep in the seas of Angel Grove to keep watch on all of you!"

"This whole time," Kat said, shaking her head with a smile towards Alpha. She leaned over and kissed him softly.

"Alpha, why'd you teleport us all here? What do you need?" asked Jason. "Because last time I checked, we all retired from being Rangers."

"Not exactly. Before Kim and I had our daughters, I've been busy," Tommy said.

"Yes, I am aware, Tommy. Congratulations on having formed the Dino Thunder Rangers team!" Alpha said cheerfully.

"Okay, this reunion is nice and all, but Alpha, why did you teleport us all here?" asked Jason.

"Oh, I wish it were under better circumstances, Jason. But I think you should observe the Viewing Globe! A new threat is arising here in Angel Grove!" Alpha cried out. "Ay-yi-yi!"

The former Rangers turned to look at the footage Alpha had seen nearly an hour ago. From the looks of it, this new monster was especially grotesque. It looked far worse than the Cogs, Putties and Tengas. Even Lord Zedd didn't look nearly as terrifying as this one.

"Alpha, who is this?" Jason asked.

"I was hoping Billy would be able to help me figure that out," Alpha said, a little shy about it.

"Don't worry, Alpha. I can see if there is anything Zordon left behind in the database," Billy said. "Tommy, Kim, I might be late to dinner tonight," he added.

Tommy and Kimberly both nodded. "Alright, Billy. The girls will understand. Well, Alpha we better get back home before Roxanne and Brianna come back from the Youth Center."

"Of course! I shall teleport you home, my Crane and Falcon!" Alpha said, but before he could teleport them, Tommy had one more question to ask of him.

"Wait, Alpha, before you do that . . . what about this new threat? Who is going to deal with it?" asked Tommy.

"It looks as though we're going to have to build a new Ranger team," Kat said.
