AN: And we've got another one that just wouldn't stay quiet in my mind, so welcome back to another Meeting everyone!

Blake: Let me guess: this also takes place at some point between Volumes 4-7?

AN: Actually no. This time, it's RWBY Post-Volume 2, Pre-Volume 3 that this Meeting takes place.

Ruby: Oh, that's cool. I was starting to think all of the Meetings you were gonna do after that first one were gonna be taking place after the Fall of Beacon.

AN: Hey, some of my other ideas do happen before that, but to be fair, there are already a lot of things out there that take place either shortly after or right at the start of the RWBY series, so you can't blame me for wanting to go a different route and start things off at a later point in the story. You know, a point where things get really exciting and interesting?

Yang: You saying things weren't exciting or interesting at the beginning?

AN: No, I never said that. I'm just saying that things did develop into a much larger scale than it was at the start when things were just you guys fighting to save the city while attending school, and at the same time, allowing everyone to see more of Remnant too.

Weiss: Right...Well, what else can you tell us about this Meeting right now?

AN: Just that our guest stars are in the same universe as yours, just from another planet.

Yang: Not to criticize, but that seems to be a reoccurring thing with these Meetings.

AN: Well the whole other dimension thing has been done a lot already, so...Anyways, Blake, if you would?

Blake: I'm on it...Today, the heroes of RWBY meet the Power Rangers!

AN: Aw yeah! You heard it here, folks! Let's...Go go Power Rangers~! (Btw, you may want to be ready to have certain Ranger tunes playing at various points, but if you can just imagine them in your head as your reading, good for you, because I was doing the same thing as I was writing this)

I do not own anything from any of the RWBY franchise or any other franchise mentioned in this story.

The Power Rangers

It had all started as just another, ordinary day in Vale, or at least, as close to one as you could get with the Vytal Festival right around the corner and everyone still getting over the thrills of the breach. Regardless of the recent events though, thanks to the efforts of the local huntsmen and huntresses, as well as those of Beacon Academy and the intervention of the Atlas military, everyone was able to go about their days and preparations for the big celebration like they always would have. Stores were hosting huge sales, visitors from other kingdoms were eagerly exploring the kingdom, the festival grounds nearing completion in their setup, and most importantly, Amity Coliseum was now floating in the skies above Vale, ready to host the tournament that the students of all the academies would be competing in, much to the excitement of said students. Even with the recent Grimm attack, everyone was able to go about their business like nothing bad had happened. It probably helped that Roman Torchwick, the man who had reportedly been behind the attack was now behind bars too, but it did not matter what reason everyone had for relaxing and thinking that everything was going to be smooth, peaceful sailing after the breach. They were soon going to find out that it was all just the calm before a much different storm than any that had ever been seen before in all of Remnant.

No one knew where they came from or what they wanted, but it was clear what it was that the strange creatures who suddenly appeared from out of nowhere wanted: destruction and chaos. They came in many different varieties too. Some of them looked like bizarre rock monsters that formed from the ground beneath their feet, others seemed similar to some type of bizarre ninjas, and others still were clearly some type of robot that, while seemingly simple in the way that they moved and fought, were very resilient and strong, given that they were able to shrug off some serious hits when the police arrived on the scene to try and help. Even a few local huntsmen were having trouble with these strange invaders, and the Atlesian Knights that General Ironwood deployed to try and help the situation were not much help either. Whatever these things were, they were faster, stronger, and a lot more durable than any of the Atlas robots.

With such a disaster unfolding in the city, it was only a matter of time before Ironwood and some of the teachers and students of Beacon Academy had joined in on the battle in the hopes of turning the tide of this unexpected catastrophe, and among those students were the two teams that were quickly proving to be some of the best of Beacon's first year students: Teams RWBY and JNPR. Of course, there were a few others there as well, such as the second year Beacon team, Team CFVY, and of course the students that were visiting from other schools like Team SSN, but from what everyone could tell, it seemed like those two student teams in particular were caught right in the middle of where the fighting was at its worst. Not that any of them were complaining mind you; this is the kind of thing that they had been training for, but given how relentless these things were and how they never seemed to take a break or even give pause, it was only natural that the eight huntsmen and huntresses-in-training had started to get really tired.

Eventually, Ruby Rose and her friends were cornered alongside of Ironwood by a good majority of the invading forces, and while the red hooded reaper was not willing to go down without a fight, she would be foolish to not recognize just how low their chances were of coming out of it in one piece, if at all. Apparently, Ironwood realized this too, given the scowl on his face as he continued firing his gun at the enemy, but it was a fruitless effort all the same. At least in the way of getting the enemy to surrender, because instead, their resilience seemed to have earned them the attention of the leaders of this attack, and they were by far some of the strangest beings that any of them had ever seen.

The collection of villains consisted of a black robot with gold lining and red eyes, who also had a black gear of some type sticking out of his back, a man in a silver mask with a long black coat that gave off a ninja-like vibe, a woman who they could easily think was some type of insect Faunus given her bug-like appearance, a man who looked like he had gotten his skin burnt off and survived somehow, and finally, a rather demented looking woman in a form-fitting green outfit, with long black hair, and a gold staff in her hand. This woman in green was clearly the one in charge, as she was the one who signaled for the enemy forces to hold their attack as she casually strode over to the general and eight students, a twisted look in her eyes and an evil smirk on her face.

"Surely you've realized just how pointless it is to try and resist at this point. Our combined forces are just simply too much for your pathetic armies and huntsmen," the woman boasted, her voice sending shivers down the heroes' spines with every word she spoke.

Ironwood was more than ready to give a retort, but Ruby beat him to the punch. "Even if it does seem pointless, no true huntsmen worth their salt would ever back down from trying to do what's right. We don't care what you say or think. We will stop you, even if we've barely got anything left to try and fight with. You can bet on that."

The ninja man had chuckle sinisterly as he remarked, "Well, you have to admit that their spirit is admirable, or that at least hers is. It's almost sickening really."

"Agreed. It reminds me of those irritating Rangers," said the insect woman.

"All the more reason to eliminate them now, before they can become anything more than a pathetic annoyance," the skeleton man stated.

"Enough," Ironwood shouted, not liking the fact that they were being so blatantly insulted like this. He was a little intrigued by these Rangers that had been mentioned, but at the moment, he was more concerned with the enemies in front of him. "Just who do you think you people are, and what reason do you have for attacking innocent people like this?!"

"Our reasons are simple. Your kind are an inferior species that must be eliminated, much like any other humans that exist on this world, in this universe, or any other world where human life can be sustained," the robotic warrior commented with a voice that was somehow both cold and calculating, while at the same time vile and vicious.

"As for who we are, that is quite simple," the woman in green stated. "I am Rita Repulsa, sorceress of evil, and with me are some of the most evil and powerful villains in the galaxy: Lothor, dark ninja master; Trakeena, tyrant queen and daughter of Scorpius; Lord Zed, emperor of evil; and Venjix, the computer virus that had conquered an entire world. This Syndicate of Evil that I have assembled under my command has only one purpose: to conqueror or destroy the entire universe, even if it's one world at a time."

"Her command," Trakeena snarled, clearly not too fond of taking orders from someone else.

"Well better her than our Rita. At least this one actually looks like a credible threat and gives off the vibe of an evil being," Lothor muttered.

"Hey! Watch your mouth, ninja, unless you want to go back into the jar we found you in," snapped Lord Zed.

"Enough," Rita snapped. "Let's just destroy these pests and be done with it already."

The five villains all raised their weapons or arms up in preparation to unleash a final attack on the eight, and while Ironwood was able to stare them down in defiance, most of the young students that were behind him could only look on in fear for a few moments. Sure, they were training to be defenders of the world, and they may have had some experience in fighting villains, but this was probably the closest that some of them were really likely to be coming to death until now, and unfortunately, the general was not sure how they could get out of this.

Right when the villains were about to launch their attacks, Zed seemed to have sensed something coming towards them, and was quickly raising his staff up in an effort to deflect a series of laser blasts while the rest of the Syndicate tried to jump clear after deflecting a few blasts as well. A moment later, the laser blasts were accompanied by a thrown sword that somehow spun around back to its owner, who the huntsmen all turned to see along with the villains, just as the weapon had returned to their hand. What greeted them was a sight that gave Ironwood and the eight Beacon students a slight pause, while the villains all snarled in disgust.

"No! It can't be," Zed snarled. "Why are one of you here?!"

"You didn't seriously think bad guys like you could really get away from us just because you were attacking a world besides Earth, did you," was the immediate reply of the surprise savior. Said individual was a woman clad in a yellow outfit that had a rather obvious pirate theme to it, and a helmet that hid her identity from them all.

Lothor looked like he was about to retaliate with some of the ninja-like soldiers when something suddenly flashed past them all, slashing at them at a speed that probably rivaled if not surpassed Ruby's. When the fast moving object finally came to a halt, they all saw another warrior like the woman in yellow, only this man was dressed in a shinning, gold outfit that was navy blue on the sleeves and legs, carried a blue and silver tantō sword, and his helmet's visor was much more elaborate in its design from that on the helmet of the woman in yellow's.

"Now that's what I call a golden entrance," the gold-clad swordsman punned, unknowingly earning him a grin from Yang while the others silently groaned.

Venjix was about to order his robots to attack, when he and the machines were suddenly lasted by another set of lasers. The laser blasts were quickly followed by something slamming into the ground hard enough to cause a small earthquake attack that sent the robots flying, and it all came from a third mystery warrior clad who was dressed like the other two. Unlike them, he was dressed in an outfit that was mostly black, with white running down the middle, with silver padding on the shoulders, cuffs of his boots and gloves, a silver belt that had a holster for the blaster he was holding in one hand, and his helmet seemed a bit more streamlined with the silver mouthpiece on it clearly helping to sell the idea that he was outfitted for missions that included high levels of danger. He also wore an emblem that was a bit more noticeable than the other two, given that it was smack dab in the middle of his chest, and it looked like a silver, segmented oval with a diagonal slash running through it that was red on the top half and black on the lower half. Along with his blaster, he also carried a large hammer, which made everyone think that he had used that for the earlier earthquake attack.

"You know, I almost forgot how much of thrill this kind of action is," the black-clad warrior stated.

Trakeena was not looking too happy over all these interventions, but it looked like they were not done yet, as she and several of the rock monsters were suddenly blasted off their feet by an unnaturally strong, concentrated burst of wind that almost looked like a small tornado. When the focused whirlwind died down, it revealed another of these colorful warriors, this time being clad in pink. Once again, the outfit she wore had several features that made it stand out from the others, namely in the fact that her visor was shaped like a butterfly or some type of pixie, and the short cape she wore on her back that extended down to her gold belt which had another emblem on its buckle, and in her hands was a short, staff-like weapon with two silver prongs.

"Haven't you heard that it's never a party until the DJ can blow everyone away," the pink-clad woman asked as she spun the staff around in her finger tips.

Zed was ready to give a retort to that argument, when he was hit by another warrior moving at high speed, and this time, it was revealed to be a man in white. His outfit design also differed from the first four, as it seemed to draw more inspiration from a certain type of animal, and was even detailed with sharp-looking black stripes running over his shoulders and up his sides, while his gold belt had a symbol on it that looked like a sharp, three-toed footprint. Also unlike the others, his helmet's visor was not colored black, but red with black lining, and seemed to be in the shape of a creature's jaws. In one hand, he carried a short, white sword with yellow and black accents, which he currently had resting on his shoulder, allowing him to give off a very confident vibe.

"Who's ready to get prehistoric on some bad guys," asked the white warrior.

Lothor was now up again and ready to attack, when someone suddenly shouted, "Hey, heads up!"

All at once, Lothor was hit by several fast slash attacks, all coming from a light blue blur, which was soon revealed to be sixth colorful warrior; namely, a young woman in a light blue outfit. Her theme seemed to be similar to that of a ninja warrior, with her helmet's mouth piece matching the main color of her outfit, while the visor was outlined with gold, and on her chest was an emblem that seemed similar to a dolphin's tail. The only other colors in her outfit were the white of her gloves, and the silver sleeves and pants that she wore to help accent her ninja appearance. On her back, they could also see a black sword sheath, no doubt for the blade that she was currently holding in her hand, and somehow, a good deal of the huntsmen could tell that this woman in blue was glaring at Lothor more than any of the other villains.

Lothor seemed to recognize this as well, as he grumbled, "Oh no. Not you again."

"Believe me, I was hoping that I had seen the last of you for a long time now, Lothor," the blue-clad ninja retorted.

Venjix was now ready to go on the offensive as well, when he was suddenly blasted by several lasers, and he was blown off his feet by yet another one of these colorful fighters. This time a man in red, with silver gauntlets on his arms, a white color that led outlined a red triangle shape on his chest. Said triangle was in the exact same color and shape as his visor, which extended into a red stripe that went over and to the back of his partially black helmet with a silver mouth piece resting right below. In his hand was an intricate, white blaster that almost looked like it could be something from the future.

"I'd say we got here just in time," the red hero quipped while spinning his blaster between his fingers like a regular action hero.

Trakeena was the next one to get attacked by a colorful hero, and this one came in silver, slashing at her with an arm-mounted weapon that appeared to be part saber and part blaster. His outfit looked a bit like something someone would wear if they were going into space, despite its skin-tight design, and was accented with gold lining, with a series of green squares going along the front of the gold line around his chest, and since his helmet was the same color, it was a little harder to discern the silver mouth piece from the rest of his head wear.

"Man does it feel good to be back," cheered the man in silver.

Rita was spinning her staff around in preparation to blast any or all of these colorful heroes, when a green energy blast suddenly came rocketing into her and blasted her back into her evil allies. When she and the huntsmen looked to the one responsible, they were met with the sight of a warrior in green with gold armor on his chest and a dagger in one hand that looked almost like a flute of some kind. His gloves and boots were both white with pointed green stripes extending down from their cuffs, and he also wore a white belt that had a very noticeable, silver belt buckle. One of the most notable things about said buckle was the gold coin that rested in the center, and the fact that it held a symbol that was shaped like a rounded, three-toed footprint. Rounding out his look, was his green helmet, which had a silver lining around the black visor, silver mouth piece, and detailing on top of the helmet that almost looked like a set of animal eyes. A black weapon holster rested on the left side of his belt, no doubt meant to hold the dagger he currently held in his hands. More than that though, there was something about this particular warrior that stood out from the others; a kind of vibe that gave off a sense of strength not just in terms of power, but experience as well.

"Hey guys," the green warrior nodded over to the huntsmen while the rest of the new arrivals all gathered around him, silently confirming for everyone that they were all part of the same team. "Hope you don't mind us cutting in like this, but we figured you could use some extra help."

Ironwood and Teams RWBY and JNPR could only continue staring for a few more minutes, even as the team of newly arrived heroes turned their full attention on the invading villains, all of whom were glaring at said team with an intense hatred, until eventually, Nora ended up being the one to break the silence. "Who the heck are these guys," the powerhouse of Team JNPR asked.

"I don't know, but I like the suits," Jaune confessed, making everyone else turn to him with flat looks. "What? They look like awesome superhero outfits. How can you not like them?"

"Hmm…He's actually got a bit of a point," Ruby agreed, but she was the only one who did, as most of the others just shook their heads at the two. Well, Weiss rolled her eyes and let out an annoyed sound, and Ironwood looked back the colorful team of heroes with a suspicious gaze, but that was pretty much par for the course at this point for the group of friends and the general.

Meanwhile, the villains were all bemoaning their recent misfortune, even as the new arrivals began to dominate and destroy their forces with an ease that almost made it seem like everyone who had been fighting up until now were just throwing rocks at them while smacking them with sticks. "I thought you said that attacking a world besides Earth would ensure we wouldn't have to deal with any Rangers," Lothor complained to Rita as he continued to glare at the woman in blue.

"I knew this would happen. Even on other worlds, there's always Power Rangers to get in someone's way, but no, you fools just had to take the new and improved sorceress's word over mine," Trakeena snarled.

"Enough! I'll admit, I was expecting to have to deal with some form of Rangers at some point while we were here, but they're a little earlier than I had anticipated," Rita confessed. She then waved to the Rangers in question as she said, "There is some good news for us, and it's something even the most dimwitted of you should be able to realize just by looking at this team."

"And just what's that," Lothor demanded. "That we're going to be blinded by color, and the fact that there seems to be even more colors in this team than before?"

Lord Zed was the one who answered the question, having realized it just as quickly as Rita. "No Lothor, you fool. They're all Rangers from different teams cobbled together in one group. More importantly, none of them are even new Rangers. They're all Rangers that have already accomplished their missions and stepped down."

"Lord Zed is correct," Venjix announced. "Each of these Rangers have been inactive for various periods of time now, some longer than others, and without their regular teammates, they do not pose as serious of a threat as they normally would."

"Please, like I'm going to believe that, or did you not notice that one of them is the Green Ranger," Trakeena pointed out. "And not just any Green Ranger, but the Green Ranger; one of the most legendary of all the Power Rangers, and one of the few who has been a Ranger longer than any other in history."

"I see my reputation precedes me," the Green Ranger commented, having overheard that part of the conversation, right when he had gotten a break between bashing down the foot soldiers to spare another energy blast for the villains.

This time, Lord Zed managed to block it, and then huffed, "Aren't you getting a little old for this, Green Ranger?"

"Like I told the last person who asked me that question, Zed: I may be old, but I can still pull it off," Green Ranger retorted. He then grabbed something on his belt and shouted, "It's morphin' time! Zeo Ranger V! Red!"

He then held the item he grabbed out in front of him, and in a flash of light he suddenly changed into a whole new outfit, this one being mostly red with white gloves, boots, and collar, gold accents, and a new helmet with a visor that was shaped like a five-pointed star. Apparently his costume change also came with a change in weaponry, as he was now using a full-sized sword as opposed to his earlier dagger, and the soldiers he was fighting suddenly started going down a lot faster than before. A quick pause in his attacks allowed him to draw a blaster that he then fired on the villains, forcing Rita and Zed to block the attacks as best they could, allowing Lothor to try and get in close. Too bad for the dark ninja master, this Ranger still had some tricks up his sleeve, as he proved when he changed again after shouting something that most of the others could not hear.

This new costume change granted the Ranger an outfit that seemed pretty similar to his first one, only this time his outfit was all white, and his armor was black with gold detailing, and a whole new emblem emblazoned on the center of his armor. Once again, his weaponry had changed, only now, it only included a curved sword with a lion's head on the end of the handle, and it seemed that he was especially skilled at wielding this particular sword, given the way he spun it around as he battled with Lothor. He eventually fired a blast of white energy from the lion's head on the sword, forcing Lothor away from him and cementing just how unprepared the villains were for the intervention of this Ranger and his teammates.

"We can't win like this," Zed informed Rita. "We need to retreat for now!"

"Fine! But rest assured, this is far from over, Power Rangers. We will meet again, and you will fall, even it's by my hand alone. After all, unlike most of these fools, I've killed Rangers before," Rita promised.

With a wave of her hand, Rita somehow conjured a strange, red energy that zapped the Syndicate and their forces away, much to everyone's surprise, including the Rangers'. "Whoa! What just happened," the Gold Ranger asked.

"I don't know, but it looked like they used an invisi-portal to escape," the White Ranger commented as he glanced at the one who was originally wearing green. "By the way, Dr. O, you look really good in white."

"Thanks," the multi-colored Ranger replied before he used his device to change back into a Green Ranger again. "But we've got bigger problems to worry about, and we can't deal with them by just standing here wondering how this Syndicate of Evil found this world's version of the invisi-portals."

"Right," the other Rangers all nodded, and they were just about to take off when Ironwood finally approached them.

"Hold it," the general shouted, getting the Rangers' attention. "Who in the world are you people and what just happened here?!"

"Sheesh. That how you thank everyone who saves your life," Silver quipped.

"Considering how you just happened to show up right when you were apparently needed, I think you can understand why anyone would be suspicious," Ironwood countered, clearly not in the mood for any jokes.

"And apparently rude, too, because where we're from, most people introduce themselves before asking, or in your case demanding for a person's name," Black easily shot back.

Ironwood had to take a deep breath in order to better calm his nerves, if for no other reason than to avoid pulling a weapon on these people. He knew it would be a bad idea to so much as suggest trying to arrest this group after so many people witnessed them saving lives and fighting off the Syndicate's forces, but that did not mean that the temptation was not there. "Fine, if you insist," Ironwood conceded. "I'm General Ironwood of the Atlesian military and headmaster of Atlas Academy. More importantly, as of this current time, I'm in charge of ensuring the safety of the people here in Vale while the Vytal Festival is going on. Now, may I finally get some names?"

"You can call us the Power Rangers, and you could say that we're living proof of the fact that heroes really do come in all colors," Green Ranger announced on behalf of the group.

That was not quite what the general was going for, but he had a feeling that it was the best he was going to get. He was about to push for some more answers when Ruby suddenly appeared between him and the Rangers, clearly about to give them a few words of her own. "Well, whoever you guys are, we really owe you for helping us out with those guys, so thanks a bunch for that."

Even though you could not see their faces, it was still apparent to everyone that each of the Rangers found Ruby's attitude much more likeable, if not endearing than Ironwood's, even before Green Ranger replied to her thanks. "You don't need to thank us. We're just good friends who want to do what's right." He then paused for another minute, studying Ruby a little before he turned to her friends to do the same, and then looked back at her when he finally asked, "That said, what's your name, kid?"

"Uh…Ruby. Ruby Rose," the young reaper replied.

"Nice to meet you, Ruby, and I get the feeling we'll be seeing you again pretty soon," Green Ranger nodded once more before raising his wrist up to speak to an unseen communication device. "Alpha, bring us back aboard the Megaship."

Before anyone could realize what was happening, the nine Rangers were all encompassed in a light that matched their respective colors and then teleported away from the former battle site, right before everyone's eyes. Once they were gone, no one could help but stare up in the direction that the beams had shot off in, wondering just where the Rangers had gone to, or even where they had come from in the first place. Both of these questions and more were racing through everyone's minds, be it in regards to these strange new heroes and the villains that they had just chased off, until finally, the silence was broken when Yang said, "Well…that was a thing."

A few hours later saw Ironwood, Glynda, and Ozpin gathered together in the Beacon headmaster's office to discuss the recent attack. Of course, it was less of a discussion of the attack, and more along the lines of Ironwood going on about the people who had intervened to save everyone, and how little he trusted them. Really, it was ridiculous how much of a hypocrite he truly was when it came to this matter, preaching on about the trustworthiness of others when it seemed like he did not trust anyone other than his robots, and it was certainly wearing on Goodwitch and Ozpin's nerves.

"And then they just…teleport away as though it were the simplest thing in the world? Something that the very invaders we were dealing with had done barely even five minutes prior! How does that not come across as suspicious to anyone," Ironwood carried on, sounding less like a general, and more like a paranoid conspiracy theorist.

"Yes, James, we are all very much aware of how suspicious you are of these Power Rangers. Thank you for making the point so efficiently clear," Goodwitch finally snapped, unable to take any more.

"No one is saying that they are above suspicion, but the fact remains that they did save many lives just now, and were much more effective than many of our best defenses were against this Syndicate of Evil as they called themselves," Ozpin intervened before any more infighting could go on. He had no intention of seeing Ironwood turn himself into even more of a machine than he already was, even after their recent fall-out in the aftermath of the breach. "If anything, we should at least be grateful that they stepped in when they did, but until we can find some way to locate and speak with them, it's pointless to really be throwing around accusations and baseless theories."

"Baseless," Ironwood repeated incredulously. "Oz, how is it baseless to be wary of someone who just happened to show up in response to a threat as swiftly as this. It's just too great a coincidence to be true."

"I'm not saying that I don't feel the same way," Ozpin assured the general. "But you forget, James, we don't have any proof to sway things one way or the other. We just don't know enough about these Power Rangers to really say for certain if they're friend or foe, so why act like they're enemies before we've done a proper investigation into their background?"

"Perhaps I can be of some help with that," a new voice interrupted, startling the three teachers, as they were not aware of anyone else being in the room with them. Naturally, they all readied their weapons in response, but when they saw the speaker in question, they all had to give pause, especially given the way he reacted upon seeing they way they were preparing to attack him. "Aye yi yi! No! Don't shoot! I come in peace, and would much rather not leave in pieces," cried a red and gold robot with a domed head and a single red light running around the center of said head acting as his eyes.

"What in the world…James, is this robot one of yours," Goodwitch asked.

"Believe me, if it was I would know," stated Ironwood.

"Hey! I'm right here, you know. There's no need to be rude and act like I'm not," the robot snapped, startling the teachers with how human it sounded.

"Our apologies. You simply took us by surprise," Ozpin slowly said.

"How did you even get in here," Ironwood demanded, not dropping his hostility in the least.

"I teleported in, of course. How else," the robot snipped in return.

Upon hearing that, Ironwood's first thought was of some of the robots that were attacking the city earlier, at least until Ozpin took notice of the flashing lightning bolt emblem that was on the robot's chest. "That's a very interesting emblem you have on your chest," the Beacon headmaster noted. "And if I were to make a rather wild assumption, would it be too much to guess that you hold some relation to the ones who saved the city earlier today?"

"Not at all, because you'd be right," the robot confirmed. "Tommy thought it would help if I came along to aid in his explanation of the crisis that your world is currently facing."

That gave the three teachers pause once more, before Goodwitch asked, "And who is this Tommy?"

Right when the robot was about to answer, Ozpin's computer sent him an alert to let him know someone was at the door, and while the other two were hesitant about letting anyone in right now while there was an intruder present, Ozpin was sure that the people he knew were waiting outside would be able to handle themselves if this machine were a threat. "Come in," Ozpin called.

Just seconds later, Teams RWBY and JNPR all stepped in, with Ruby speaking up on behalf of the group. "Sorry we're late. We thought it would be a good idea to do some quick repairs on our weapons in case something else…" She stopped short when she noticed the robot, and immediately wide-eyed with the rest of her friends. "What the heck is that?"

"Oh, hello there," the robot waved, startling the students a little more.

"Uh…Did that robot just say…?" Jaune slowly started to ask.

"Yes, I did," the robot confirmed. "Alpha 6 at your service, kids."

Unsurprisingly, Ruby recovered first, and happily waved hello back. "Hi Alpha 6. I'm Ruby, and this is Weiss, Blake, Yang, Jaune, Pyrrha, Nora, and Ren."

"Nice to meet you all, but please, just Alpha is fine."

"Ruby, are you sure it's smart to be giving the strange robot our names like that," Weiss hissed to her team leader.

"Oh don't worry. I'm not much of a fighter really. I'm just a simple talking robot," Alpha reassured Weiss, showcasing just how good his hearing is.

"And he was just telling us that he is an ally of those fighters that aided you saving the city earlier today," Ozpin filled in.

"What? You know the Power Rangers," Nora exclaimed, expressing everyone's shock in an instant.

"Indeed I do. I've known many different Rangers, of many different colors and teams. After all, it's part of my primary mission: to aid the Rangers in their quest to protect the universe from the forces of evil. One goal, one team, known as the Power Rangers!"

"Protect the universe," Pyrrha repeated in awe.

"That's a really big place," Yang whispered in the same manner, and the rest of her friends were not too far behind.

"But how do can we believe that it's true," Ironwood demanded, now a little less hostile than before. Ozpin and Goodwitch were pretty sure it was only because there were students present at the moment.

"Because we're here to ask for your help," another new voice said, and upon turning around, they all saw a man in black with a sharp, three-toed emblem on his chest become visible to them. A second later, the man's outfit changed into that of the Green Ranger, instantly telling them who he was, and he said, "Sorry about that, but I figured that I should be present when Alpha announced himself on the off-chance that you did actually attack him. I'm not too fond of my friends getting hurt."

Everyone could only stare at the Green Ranger in surprise for a minute, until Ren finally asked, "How many of those outfits do you have?"

"That one you just saw was the last of them," Green Ranger stated. "But technically I've been five different Rangers over the years. I just don't retain the fifth one since that was also the time when I passed on the power to my successor, the second Red Turbo Ranger."

"Fascinating," Ironwood muttered. "But perhaps now we can finally learn your real name and those of your teammates' as well?"

"I was fully intending on telling you that any ways, because like Alpha said earlier, we need your help if we're going to save your world from the crisis it's facing," Green Ranger stated. He then raised his wrist and said, "Rangers, time for the introductions."

The next thing anyone knew, Ozpin's office started to feel a little crowded as the other Rangers from earlier that day all suddenly appeared in the room with them. Right after they had appeared, Green Ranger moved to stand with them, and as one, they all shouted, "Power down!"

Just like that, the Rangers' outfits disappeared, revealing the people beneath the helmets. A good number of them were decked out in some variety of a fancy uniform, such as the Black, Blue, Pink, Silver, and Gold Rangers, while the others wore simple casual attire that had a noticeable amount of their Ranger color in it. However they may have dressed though, one thing was for certain: they each had a look to them that showed that gave off a feeling of heroism, and showed that they were very experienced in their work as heroes. After letting their audience take in their appearances, they began running through their introductions.

"My name's Gia Moran, and I'm the Super Mega Force Yellow Ranger," the first woman who had appeared to aid the huntsmen earlier that day announced.

"I'm Antonio Garcia, the Gold Samurai Ranger," a young, Mexican man introduced, his outfit being mostly black with gold lining, while his Ranger team's emblem was worn on the right side of his uniform.

"The name's Will Aston, Black Ranger of Operation Overdrive," said a young, black man who was decked out in a black uniform with black lining and his Ranger symbol on the right side of his jacket.

"I'm Vida, Mystic Force Pink Ranger. Not my first choice of color, but you learn to like it," was the next girl's introduction, and from what they could tell, her uniform looked like something a sorcerer would wear, or sorceress in her case.

"My name's Trent Mercer, and I'm the White Dino Thunder Ranger," announced the next young man in the line-up, and the second Ranger who was dressed in casual attire.

"I'm Tori Hanson, Ninja Storm Blue Wind Ranger," stated a girl was dressed more like a ninja than either Blake or Ren.

"Wesley Collins, Red Time Force Ranger. You can just call me Wes, though," said the man who had been wearing the red hero suit a moment ago, though he was now decked out in a simple red shirt and blue jeans.

"My turn," the Silver Ranger almost cheered, and from what they could tell, his uniform looked comparable to the ones that Ironwood and some of his soldiers would wear. "I'm Zhane, the Silver Space Ranger."

"And I'm Doctor Tommy Oliver, the Mighty Morphin Green and White Rangers, Red Zeo Ranger, and Black Dino Thunder Ranger," the leader of the group finally announced.

"Whoa, you've been a lot of different Rangers," Ruby whispered in awe.

"That's not too surprising. Tommy's one of the original Power Rangers, and one of the best at that," Wes praised, and it seemed that his teammates all shared the sentiment if their grins were any indication.

"Is that right," Ironwood asked, his voice carrying a hint of how impressed he was of that detail.

Tommy simply smiled with a modest nod of his head, showing that he was not really one to brag about that type of thing, but it still left one thing unanswered. "What is this crisis that you're here to save us from," Ozpin asked.

"It's a long story, and to truly understand it, we need to tell you the history of the Power Rangers from the beginning," Tommy explained. "Alpha, if you would?"

"Right away, Tommy," Alpha confirmed, and he then made his way to Ozpin's desk. After getting the okay from the headmaster in question, Alpha placed a device down on the desk, connecting it to the main computer of the office, and activating a holographic view screen that everyone in the room was able to see.

"What you're about to see are images that I've compiled over the years to detail Ranger history, both my own, and that of the other previous teams up until now that I'm aware of. Normally its part of a video diary I created that someone should only view in an emergency, but since this is the most recent one, I haven't had the chance to add in the narration, so I hope you don't mind if I just give it myself," Tommy stated. The minute he had finished speaking, literally everyone from Remnant had gathered around to get a better view of the images that they were about to see, and Tommy took that as his cue to begin the story. "This story begins many years ago our home planet, known as Earth, in the city of Angel Grove…"

From that point forward, Tommy regaled the huntsmen with everything about the Power Rangers. How the being known as Zordon of Eltar assembled a team of teenagers with attitude to become the original team of Rangers in response to the return of the evil sorceress, Rita Repulsa, their many battles that followed afterwards, the story behind how Tommy got his original Ranger powers and started out as an enemy of the team before being freed from Rita's evil spell and joining them, then later lost his Green Ranger powers and gained those of the White Ranger shortly afterwards, and all the battles that he and his team of Rangers fought over the years. He also mentioned how some of the original Rangers eventually had to leave for various reasons and pass on their powers to new members, along with the changes that their powers, weapons, and abilities changed during their time, right up to when he finally retired from his original Ranger days after he and the rest of the old team had passed their powers on to a new group that would then go on to save the entire universe from some of the greatest evils of their time.

It did not stop with what Tommy referred to as the Zordon Ranger Era, either. Tommy's recap of Ranger history went on to include an abridged story of each Ranger team that came after that era as well, starting from the tale of the Lost Galaxy Rangers. The group was amazed by the various changes that had taken place in the Power Rangers with each new team, but what they found even more incredible was how no matter what changes was made or who was in each new line-up of Rangers, they all maintained the same mission of protecting the universe from evil. From the heroic Lightspeed Rescue team, to the time traveling defenders from the future that were the Time Force Rangers, and the animal-powered guardians of the Earth of the Wild Force Rangers. Not to mention the Dino Thunder team that saw Tommy returning to Ranger duty once more, the high-tech adventurers of Operation Overdrive, the generation-spanning Samurai Rangers, and right down to the mighty Mega Force team that eventually discovered how to harness the powers of the Rangers that came before them. It also included a more recent team, who called themselves the Power Rangers Ninja Steel, but at that point, they had all felt like they had learned everything they needed to know. After all, the Ranger team before them did not seem to include anyone from that team, so why bother paying that much attention?

As fascinating as all of this Ranger history was, it did still leave a few things unanswered, mainly because there was something that many of them quickly took note of: the enemies that each Ranger team faced were destroyed in one fashion or another. That fact and at least one other raised a few new questions that had to be asked, and Goodwitch was the first to do so.

"If all these villains were defeated by one of these past teams, then how are they here on Remnant now, and why did the woman claiming to be Rita look so different from before," the deputy headmistress asked.

"Well, that's where things get a little more complicated," Tommy admitted. "You see, the Rita that you all met today isn't the same one that my team and I fought against years ago. She's a different version of Rita from another dimension."

"Another dimension? Like as in a parallel universe," Ren inquired.

"But I thought that was just a myth," Weiss interjected.

"Because it is. It's nothing more than the stuff of comic books and fairy tales," Ironwood insisted. His comment earned him a pointed look from both Glynda and Ozpin, mostly due to the fairy tale part of it, but he could only offer a silent shrug in response.

"I'm afraid I have to respectfully disagree, General. As you've probably noticed, the Rangers have experienced many things that you would think impossible in the past," Tommy pointed out.

"Yeah, like how my team was mostly made up of guys that were from the future," Wes reminded everyone. "And they wouldn't have even been able to access their Ranger powers if I hadn't been able to unlock their morphers for them."

"That said, we don't really know too much about this new Rita. What we do know is that she was defeated by the Power Rangers of her universe, and as a result, she was sent hurtling through space, until she fell through some kind of wormhole that brought her into ours," Tommy picked up from there. "Afterwards, she started using her powers to gather up some of the worst villains in our universe for her Syndicate. It didn't matter if they were destroyed or not; if there was some way for her to bring them back, she found it and used it. Best example would be how she managed to find a small sample of Trakeena's life energy that was left over from her final battle against the Lightspeed and Lost Galaxy Rangers, and used it as a basis to bring Trakeena back."

"Or how she somehow found a way to get to the dimension that Venjix comes from and brought him here," Antonio added on.

"As impressive and fantastic as all of this is, it doesn't explain why they came here to our world," Ozpin finally stated. "If these villains all have such a history with the Power Rangers, why attack a world that has no Rangers to speak of whatsoever?"

"It's actually because of that very reason that she came here," Trent revealed. "Rita somehow convinced the villains that it would be smarter to build up their forces by attacking other worlds, ones that didn't have Power Rangers to defend them, and then come back to Earth with an unbeatable army."

"She figured she'd start here because she found out about one thing your world has that others don't: soulless creatures that drawn to negative emotions and seem to spawn from tar-like pits of what could only be described as pure darkness," Gia continued from there.

"The Grimm," Jaune whispered.

"You think the Syndicate wants to try and take control of them," Pyrrha asked.

"Either that or find out how they're created so that they can make their own. Both are pretty likely possibilities," Will informed them.

"Well, whatever the case, you're here now, so you can stop the Syndicate and save Remnant," Ruby cheered, always the optimist. She did not know just how wrong her guess really was though.

"I'm sorry to say this, Ruby, but we're not here so we can stop the Syndicate. Our job is just to lay the ground work," Tommy admitted.

"The ground work for what," Ironwood asked.

"For the ones that will stop them," Tommy stated. He then dug into one of his pockets to retrieve a collection of shiny gold coins, all the while explaining in greater detail. "The main reason why the Syndicate came here was because your world didn't have a team of Rangers to protect it, but thanks to our friend, Ninjor, we now have the necessary tools to rectify that. Each of us either retrieved or had our old powers restored so that we could come here and deliver these new Power Coins to the ones that will become Remnant's very own team of Power Rangers."

They could hardly believe what they just heard. The idea that this Syndicate of Evil wanted to find a way to not only take control of the Grimm but figure out a way to create their own was crazy enough, but this was a whole different story entirely. Sure, they knew that the Power Rangers were capable of many great things, but the idea that this team of past Rangers was here to give Remnant its own team of them? It was like someone had just offered to make a first-year student into a huntsman, but with a whole new level prestige that outshined and surpassed all the others in the world.

Of course, while all the adults were trying to wrap their heads around this, the eight students could not help but gaze in awe at the coins Tommy was holding in his hand. To think that these little things were the keys to granting a group of people such impressive power…it was simply unreal. There was something else here, though. As each of the young huntsmen and huntresses-in-training studied the coins, they got an odd feeling that was not necessarily in their heads, but resonating in their hearts, bodies, and souls. It was like something was calling out and compelling their entire beings to step forward and do some unknown thing. Whatever it was, they ended up puzzling over it for so long, that they missed any further conversation between Tommy and their professors about how the teachers could assist the Earthlings in finding the people that could be Remnant's team of Power Rangers.

In the end, Ruby and her friends only came out of their sudden, shared trance when Ironwood's Scroll suddenly rang, and he promptly answered it. "Ironwood here," the general said, pausing to let the person on the other end speak. "What?! Are you sure?" Another pause was quickly followed by Ironwood saying, "No, don't engage yet. Just focus on getting people to safety and await further orders."

"What is it, James," Ozpin asked once Ironwood had lowered his Scroll. He was not sure if his friend had hung up or simply put the other person on hold, but he did not like the sound of that conversation, or the slight tinge of panic in Ironwood's voice.

"Bring up a news channel and see for yourself. It doesn't matter which one," Ironwood hurriedly said.

Without even thinking, Ozpin tapped a few controls on his desk, and the holo-screen that was just used to with help Tommy's lesson on Ranger history had brought up the Vale News Network. "This is Lisa Lavender. We interrupt this program for an emergency broadcast. Just minutes ago, the monsters and robots that had attacked Vale City earlier today had suddenly reappeared, this time with what looks to be several Creatures of Grimm. Huntsmen and Atlesian forces on site have already moved to engage these invaders and monsters while evacuating people to safety, but given how even some of our best were overwhelmed in their first appearance, one can only wonder if we may see the mysterious warriors that suddenly appeared to stop them again."

True to the reporter's words, it seemed that the Syndicate was on the attack once more, and this time with several Grimm at their disposal. Nothing so dangerous as a Deathstalker, or King Taijitu, but the sheer number of the soulless creatures was more than enough to warrant great concern. Seeing the danger before them, Ruby and her friends were more than ready to rush out, but right before they could, Tommy looked to his team and said, "Think you guys can handle this?"

"You bet," Wes confirmed as he lead the rest of the Rangers over to the side. "Just leave it to us, Tommy."

"Wait, you're not going with them," Ironwood asked.

"Afraid not. At least one of us has to stay behind and keep the Power Coins safe until we can get them to their rightful owners. If it does become necessary for me to step in, I will, but if that does become the case, can I trust you all to watch over them," Tommy asked.

Ozpin barely needed to share more than a glance with his trusted lieutenants before he gave an answer. "Of course, Doctor Oliver. You have my word that we'll do our very best should it come to that."

Tommy nodded in thanks before turning to Wes and saying, "Remember to watch yourselves out there, Wes. Some of you are using powers that have only just been restored for a limited amount of time, after all."

"Don't worry, Tommy, we can handle ourselves," Wes assured him. He then spared a quick glance amongst his fellow Rangers, earning nods from each as he said, "Let's do it! Ready?"

"Ready," the other Rangers chorused as they raised their morphers for action. Wes then joined them as they all cried out, "It's morphin' time!"

In an instant, the Rangers had all morphed into their respective Ranger forms, and after a brief exchange with Alpha, they all teleported out of the room, no doubt heading towards the site of the battle that was still being broadcasted on the live news. At that point, everyone left in Ozpin's office could only watch and hope that the veteran Rangers could handle things.

"They can't handle this for much longer," Jaune panicked several minutes later.

True to the blonde leader's words, the Rangers were getting overwhelmed by the Syndicate and their forces, mainly because they were still a little new to fighting Grimm. Sure, they were not too big of a problem at first, but as time went on, it seemed like some of the few cracks that remained from the Breach had opened up, allowing more types of Grimm to get in, and strengthening the enemy's forces. The Rangers were doing their best to fight back, some even going so far as to bust out some of their special weapons and equipment such as Wes's Battlizer, Gia's many Legendary Ranger modes, and Trent's Super Dino Mode, just to name a few examples, but it was not making too great of a difference.

From the look of things, Tommy was just seconds away from going out there to help the rest of his temporary team, despite knowing how important it was for him to stay behind so he could protect the new Power Coins. Not that it would have mattered, given he had already secured a promise from Ozpin that they would protect the coins should this happen, but given how dedicated Tommy was to any Ranger mission, you could easily understand why he would want to personally see it through to the end personally. Still, Tommy's base instincts as a Ranger would always win out and prompt him to step in and help others, especially his fellow Rangers when they needed him, so he was more than prepared to finally say screw it and go join the rest of his team. Too bad for him, someone else beat him to the punch.

"We've gotta go help them," Ruby decided on behalf of both her team and Jaune's, much to the surprise of both Tommy and the three huntsmen.

"Miss Rose, I can certainly appreciate that you wish to lend whatever aid you can to those in trouble, but I'm afraid that this may be a little out of yours and your friends' experience and capabilities," Ozpin tried to caution.

"That doesn't matter. We all came to Beacon because we wanted to be huntsmen, and that means that we signed up to do whatever we could to help people," Ruby insisted, the fire in her silver eyes shining so brightly that it almost made Ozpin think that he was looking at her mother, Summer.

"Ruby's right. It's our duty as huntresses to protect the people, even if we aren't officially huntresses yet," Blake agreed.

"Even if we are students, we can't just sit back and watch if there's something we can do to help," Weiss nodded.

"Besides, last time those guys caught us off-guard, but now, we know what we're dealing with, so we can handle them," Yang confidently stated.

"Just because you've paid attention to one history lesson doesn't mean you're able to handle these invaders from other worlds, Miss Xiao Long," Goodwitch scolded, still thinking that these kids had lost their minds. "None of you are ready for this."

"That didn't stop us from going out and fighting the Grimm during the Breach and that won't stop us this time, either," Jaune immediately countered. "Those guys are risking their lives for our city; our whole world, and they're asking for nothing in return! We can't just sit here and let someone else fight what should be our battle for us."

"I agree," Pyrrha nodded. "This is our world, and it doesn't feel right to let someone else fight for it if we have the ability to do so ourselves."

Ren simply gave a silent nod with a smirk while Nora happily shrugged as she said, "Hey, what more can we add to that? They pretty much said it all, and you know they're right."

Before anyone could argue or protest with the students' decision to try and help any further, something suddenly started ringing loudly at the very same time that something in Tommy's pocket began to glow. Pulling out the item in question, they were all stunned to see that it was the eight Power Coins that Tommy had brought with him from Earth. Right when they were about to question what was going on, the Coins shot out of Tommy's hand and began zipping around the room at a rapid pace before they finally came to a stop before Ruby and the other eight, each floating there as they glowed in one of eight different colors, much to everyone's astonishment.

"You've got to be kidding me," Goodwitch muttered under her breath.

"I don't understand," Ironwood gasped. "Why are the Power Coins acting like this? Are they actually…"

"The Morphing Grid is never wrong when it chooses someone to bestow the powers on," Tommy informed the general.

"But there are so many other huntsmen and soldiers in the world who are fully trained that would be better suited for this task," Ironwood tried to argue.

"Maybe, but that's the thing about most Ranger powers. You don't get to choose them; they choose you," Tommy insisted. He then smirked a little more as he added, "And more often than not, the ones they choose for any team consists of overemotional and overbearing humans, or more simply put…teenagers with attitude."

"But are we really certain," Ozpin asked, looking on at the students who were still just standing in place, staring at the Power Coins as they hovered in front of them.

"Only one way to find out," Tommy said as he turned to Ruby and the others. "Reach out to them," the legendary, veteran Ranger instructed. "If you can grasp the coins and hold onto them, then that should be more than enough proof that they've chosen you."

It took a little while before they made any move to follow Tommy's instructions, but after the eight friends had shared a quick look amongst themselves, they all counted to three in their heads, and reached out as one to grab the Power Coin in front of them. A brilliant flash of light followed right after they had extended their arms forward, and when it faded the results had made Tommy grin widely, Ironwood and Goodwitch stare in open-mouthed shock, and Ozpin smirk with a knowing look.

Explosions seemed to rock the streets of Vale as the villains and their armies blasted the veteran Rangers with every form of attack that they had, and unfortunately, it was taking everything that the Rangers had to just stay in the fight. Sadly, it was not going to last for much longer, as most of the team was already hit so hard that they were forced to power down. At this point, the only ones left in the fight were Wes, Vida, Will, and Tori, and they were just barely holding on as it was. It was only made even more worrying given that Wes and Vida had both powered up to their most powerful modes, Battlizer for the former and Legend Warrior for the latter, and they were still losing. Eventually, it all came down to the moment when one final blast from Rita herself sent the remaining Rangers flying, and when they finally crashed down again, they were all knocked out of their Ranger forms.

Despite being so soundly overwhelmed, none of the Rangers were willing to give up. They were all soon on their feet again and ready to fight, even while unmorphed, but with how many bad guys and monsters were left before them, it did not seem like it would be a fight that they could win without some backup. The Syndicate seemed to realize this as well, since they were all laughing at the admittedly pathetic display of defiance that the Rangers were putting on for them, and the team knew that could only mean one of them was on the verge of some big villain speech or something.

"You see my vile associates. It is just as I predicted and more. They may be Rangers, but there's reason why they had hung up their helmets. Their time has passed, and they've not a true Ranger team," Rita boasted proudly. "I know not what could've prompted you to come here, but it was a foolish endeavor that has done nothing but rush you all towards your doom."

"Think again, you bunch of old rehashes," someone shouted, prompting the Syndicate and the veteran Rangers to all turn just in time to see Tommy rushing onto the scene, ready for action. Unfortunately, his arrival did not seem to warrant any concern for the Syndicate. All it really did was amuse them.

"Well, look who decided to finally show up," Zed taunted. "Unfortunately, it's too little too late even for you to try and turn things around, Tommy."

"Your team of retired Rangers is beaten, we hold the advantage in numbers, and now have allies that have granted us the ability to command the Grimm," Lothor proudly boasted.

"Odds of your victory are now at an all-time low, Tommy Oliver," Venjix declared.

"There's nothing that any one Ranger, alone can do to stop us now, even if that Ranger is you," Trakeena stated.

Right when the revived empress had finished saying that, several loud blasts suddenly echoed through the air, and several Grimm were suddenly turned to dust. Shortly afterwards, a stream of red rose petals seemed to come flying through the area, tearing through several robots and monsters like a knife through butter, until they ultimately formed into Ruby Rose, who brought her scythe down on the closest Ursa. Weiss was soon to follow next, as she used her glyphs to hold several Beowolves in place to ensure she would be able to run them each through with her rapier, and by the time she had felled the last one, she had landed alongside of Ruby, with Blake and Yang following shortly after, and Team JNPR after them.

"Think again, lady. He's not alone," Ruby announced.

When the other veteran Rangers saw the eight kids from before standing with Tommy, they were understandably concerned, so Tommy was not surprised by the first thing that was said once they had all regrouped together. "Dr. O, I get that these kids are tough, but bringing them out into this was not a good idea," Trent admonished as respectfully as possible.

"He's right. You guys need to get out of here for your own safety," Gia told Teams RWBY and JNPR.

"You have no idea the kind of power that these guys have up their sleeves," Will added.

None of the nine new arrivals appeared too offended or upset, as Tommy informed his fellow Rangers, "Even if that were true, then I guess that makes things even, because they don't know what kind of power that these kinds are packing."

"Yeah," Ruby stated, and the next thing anyone knew, she and the rest of her friends were pulling out Power Morphers just like the ones that Tommy and the other original Rangers had back in the day, each with the eight new Power Coins locked into place as she finished the statement. "Because unless they've seen what these new Ranger Powers can do, or if any of them have got a Master Morpher like Tommy's, I think we've got a bit more of an edge on our side this time around."

The veteran Ranger team could only grin, smile, or show some other variety of excited or joyous expression on their faces at the sight of the Power Coins now being wielded by their chosen owners, even as Tommy said, "I had a feeling that there was something special about these kids, and it looks like I wasn't wrong. So, you guys think you've got enough in you to help the rookies out in their first fight?"

Barely more than a glance was shared before the others nodded in agreement, and with that, the team of past Rangers, and the team of newly empowered Rangers turned to face the villains once again, all with a new fire in their eyes that left the villains a little worried. Just before he reached for his morpher though, Tommy looked to the young, red-hooded reaper and said, "Care to do the honors, Ruby?"

Ruby beamed so widely she was sure her face would be split apart when she heard that, even as she happily nodded in reply, but thankfully, she was able to reign her eagerness and excitement in just enough to show she was serious about this, and declared, "You guys ready?!"

"READY," the others all shouted as one.

That was all Ruby needed to hear before she finally got the chance to say the iconic line that she only first heard that morning from Tommy. "IT'S MORPHIN' TIME!"

"Dragonzord! Green Ranger Power!"

"Let's Rocket!"

"Time for Time Force!"

"Ninja Strom! Ranger form! Hah!"

"White Ranger, Dino Power!"

"Magical Source, Mystic Force!"

"Overdrive Accelerate!"

"Samurai Morpher! Gold Power!"

"Go, go Mega Force! Super Mega Mode!"

While all these code phrases were familiar to the villains, even if only vaguely, it was the last one that was shouted that really grabbed their attention, both due to its unfamiliarity, and because of how it was shouted by the eight huntsmen-in-training that they had been besting earlier that day.

"Huntsmen power! Remnant awakening!"

In an instant, all the veteran Rangers were powered up again in their respective Ranger forms, but this time, they joined by an additional eight newly minted Power Rangers as well, and they were each wearing their colors proudly, even as they readied their powered-up weapons while joining in on the roll call, with Ren starting things off for the new team, and Ruby rounding it out.

"Mighty Morphin' Green Ranger!"

"Power Silver!"

"Time Force, Red!"

"Power of Water! Blue Ninja Storm Ranger!"

"Drago Power! White Dino Thunder Ranger!"

"Pink Mystic Ranger!"

"Kick into Overdrive! Black Ranger!"

"Gold Samurai Ranger, ready!"

"Super Mega Force Yellow!"

"Forest Ninja! Green Hunter Ranger!"

"Shinning Gladiator! Gold Hunter Ranger!"

"Energized Powerhouse! Pink Hunter Ranger!"

"Noble Knight! Blue Hunter Ranger!"

"Blazing Brawler! Yellow Hunter Ranger!"

"Shadow Swordswoman! Black Hunter Ranger!"

"Glacier Fencer! White Hunter Ranger!"

"Rose Reaper! Red Hunter Ranger!"

The villains could hardly believe their eyes and ears, but out of all of them, it was Rita who was the most baffled. "A new team of Power Rangers?! But how?! I was certain that the Morphing Grid didn't extend to this world."

"Guess you were more than a little misinformed," Ruby, the Red Hunter Ranger quipped.

"And now that we've got the Remnant Hunter Rangers on our side, things are no longer in your favor," Tommy finished for her. He then looked to Ruby once more as he asked, "You and your team ready to put those new powers to the test, Ruby?"

Ruby just smirked behind her helmet as she held her powered-up scythe in a ready position, and stated, "As you and your original team used to say, Tommy…this is gonna be morphenomenal."

AN: What? Like we didn't all see this coming? Of course I was gonna do at least one Meeting where the heroes of RWBY basically join up and become their own versions of some team or group in another franchise eventually. And I'd like to think I did pretty well with this one. Originally, I was also gonna include a Megazord fight in the Meeting as well, but at this point, I was starting to drag things out a little, so I just cut it at the ending point you all saw here.

Ruby: Aw, but I would've wanted to see a giant mecha fight! Oh, and see what our Megazord was like too!

AN: Yeah...That's another part of the reason why I cut it. You guys wouldn't be driving your own Megazord in this. You'd have just borrowed the Dino Thunder Megazords and joined Tommy and the others in the fight while they piloted the Drive Max Ultrazord and the Shadow Force Megazord.

Weiss: Uh...weren't all the Dino Thunder Zords destroyed in the final episode of Dino Thunder though? [pauses to see everyone looking at her weirdly] What? So I looked at a couple of episodes for research purposes. Namely for this Meeting. That doesn't mean anything.

AN: Well, in this case, Tommy would've revealed that he was working on rebuilding those zords for an emergency situation, kinda like how they built a new Astro Megaship in the Forever Red special. Speaking of which, what'd you guys think of the All-Star Ranger team I assembled? I wanted there to be at least one Ranger for all the major colors that have been featured over the years, while at the same time, only bringing in Rangers that were from the Prime Ranger dimension, hence the absence of guys from Dino Charge, RPM, and SPD. And obviously I didn't go into detail on Tommy's review of Ranger history because...well, I'm pretty sure we all know what's what in regards to the Power Rangers by this point, so why rehash what we already know in that regard? That said, let me talk about a few more details that would go into this little story if it were to expand.

Yang: This oughta be good.

AN: Now since the Syndicate of Evil would be trying to get control of the Grimm, obviously they would have a little run in with Salem, and surprise-surprise, the evil old hag that can't just let things go and insists on holding a grudge against the world would've joined up with them.

Salem: Ex-CUSE me?

AN: [turns to just look at her while Team RWBY readies weapons] What? That's basically you in a nutshell. I mean, I get wanting a loved one back and all, but everything afterwards...yeah, it all just showed how petty you were. And I'm not sorry for saying it. Do I sympathize with you a little? Sure, to an extent, but really? You've been around for thousands of years, if not hundreds of thousands, or however long its been. There comes a time when you need to just let things go and move on, lady.

Salem:...I will find you in the real world...and I will kill you.

AN: Not if you want me to continue writing and get to a point where you would actually appear in at least Remnant of the Key you won't.

Salem:...Curse you, lyoko Prime.

AN: Yeah, I thought so. Now, back on track, Salem would join the Syndicate, mostly on the grounds that she believes she could seize control of the group from Rita and have them aid in her purposes, if not beyond that, officially getting her into the major villain role for the Power Rangers Remnant Hunters. Meaning a lot of her magic would be used to create the monsters that get sent to attack the Rangers, along with some modified Grimm.

On the Rangers side of things, after this first battle, while Tommy and his team all depart for Earth, Alpha decides to stick around so that he can help the Hunter Rangers in their mission, and with a little help from Ozpin and Ironwood, he'd also be able to help them establish a base of operations outside of Beacon, mainly to better help protect the Rangers' identities as Beacon students. As far as the design of the Hunter Rangers...well, All I really know is what colors they would wear, as you've probably figured out from that last bit.

In case it wasn't obvious: Ren is Green Ranger, Pyrrha is Gold, Nora's Pink, Jaune is Blue, and...well, I think you can figure it out from there. I mean, it should be really obvious who's what color.

Ruby: Wait, what about Oscar? Or Penny? Or really any other characters that we become friends with? Would they become Rangers too?

AN: Well, I did think of making Oscar into the Silver Hunter Ranger, and maybe make Penny into something like...I don't know, an Emerald or Diamond Ranger, but that's about it. Anyways, like I was saying, I didn't really think too much on the design for the Hunter Rangers' suits, but I kinda figured that it'd be something like a mix of the various Ninja Ranger teams, Jungle Fury, and Operation Overdrive or something like that. Maybe even give them all cloaks similar to Ruby's to better help them stand out, since the only other Ranger team that has everyone so much as wearing a cape would be Mystic Force. The same could really be said for the zords and Megazord. I didn't really think to much about what they would look like or how they would be designed. So long as they looked cool and not stupid, like certain Megazords I could mention *cough* Ninja Steel *cough*, then I'd be cool with that.

Weiss: Uh, I think what everyone would really like to know would be if any of this would prevent the Fall of Beacon?

AN: As a matter of fact, yes. Yes it would. I mean, the attack would still happen, and something would still happen that would trigger Ruby's silver eyes, but you'd be able to stop the whole thing, regardless of all that. So, there would be no splitting up of Team RWBY, and we'd still get to expand your team's adventures beyond Vale and into other kingdoms as well. That's all I can really say for certain, as this idea is still relatively new. Like, the main reason I ever even thought of it was because I saw some videos on YouTube that set various Power Rangers theme songs to clips from your show, and I started picturing something like that one Power Rangers Legacy Wars video happening to you guys.

Blake: You mean the one where the guys from Street Fighter get Ranger Powers too?

AN: Yep, that's the one. So, there you have it. An idea that is very young to the point of infancy, and is also an open-ended challenge for anyone to take up, if they want. By all means, go for it, if you think you can handle it. And with that said, we'll see you in the next Meeting, and until then...

Please read and review, and I'll see you again in the next colorful adventure!
