Power Rangers: Zeo💠
Hey guys! Here's an awesome new series of commissions made by the super talented @artandfail showing what I think could have been the 2017 movie sequels!
Following Zedd's attack and the Rangers separating, a new threat rises from the wreckage of the destroyed alien main ship. Capturing civilians and building an unknown structure. What is this new enemy's goal? And without the Rangers, who will be able to stop them?
We now get to the next part of Tomi's story! Where she has to take up the mantle of Red Ranger and train a whole new team to become Rangers after the previous team separated following their losses and sacrifices.
____________________
In the aftermath of Lord Zedd's invasion, the loss of their friend and losing their ability to morph, the once proud Rangers have disbanded.
Zack has decided to leave with his mom for a new city to focus on her health and treating her long-term illness.
Jason and Kim, grieving and in need of a fresh start, applied and were accepted to a college far from Angel Grove.
Tomi and Billy stayed behind... resolute to maintain the ship and keep watch over the reformed Zeo Crystal.
"After Trin-... I'm sorry, I just need some time to deal with this. And I can't do that here."
-----------------------
Deep in the quarantine zone, in the heart of Lord Zedd's mothership wreckage, evil still remains.
Analyzing its new habitat, capturing preys to assimilate, reconstruct and remold. Creating the perfect warrior, the perfect hunter. Create an apex predator, a drone to control just as its Bio-metalic system dictates.
It recreates the greatest warriors of this planet in its own image. Recreates these... Power Rangers.
But it will need more drones to construct a signal tower to contact the rest of its kind. It will need-
"WHAT THE HELL IS THAT!?"
To assimilate another prey.
-----------------------
School project partners Aisha, Adam, Rocky and Kat were taking pictures near Angel Grove's quarantine district when the... Ranger attacked. They tried to talk to it, tried to run but it was useless, it was hunting them, separating and isolating them.
But moments before it could strike and capture one of them, someone else managed to strike IT.
"I don't know what you think you are, but you are no Ranger. YOU'RE NOT WORTHY!"
-----------------------
After facing the Dark Ranger and reviewing the pictures taken by the four teens she had just saved, Tomi came to a simple conclusion. Angel Grove needed the Power Rangers again. This new threat was too big. It was building some strange structure within the quarantine zone, not only that but it was also capturing civilians and transforming them into these Dark Rangers.
With that in mind, Tomi headed back to command center, unknowingly being tailed by the same teens she had saved.
With the help of Billy, Alpha, Zordon and a broken piece of her own Power Coin, Tomi managed to imbue slivers of the Zeo Crystal with Morphing energy and strap them into six pairs of modified wrist attachments in order to create a new method of morphing, stronger than before, the Zeonizers!
Tomi took the first set and shortly followed by giving Zeonizers to each of the four teens that had followed her into the ship, finding them worthy after seeing them in action and observing them at school. She then offered the final Zeonizer to Billy... Who refused it, holding his own now powerless Blue Power Coin in his hand.
"I was proud to be a Ranger, we were heroes, we saved the earth over a dozen times... But my time is over. This isn't my team, It's yours. You are the new Red Ranger, this is your time."
-----------------------
With the help of her new teammates, Tomi dove back into the mothership of the monster that had taken so much from her. Intent on stopping this new enemy and destroying the mysterious machine sending deep-space signals that has been constructed in its center.
Fighting these bio-metallic twisted versions of her previous team, Tomi and the new Rangers will show them that no matter what, Power Rangers never lose!
"I've fought against witches, aliens, monsters, invaders and tyrants. You think you upstart Venom-wannabes are going to be the one to conquer earth? Well you've got another thing coming!"
-----------------------
Celebrating their victory, the newly formed Zeo Rangers returned to the ship and celebrated in the pit. Four teens joking together in the sandy terrain as two others stood farther away, picturing four other friends who once stood in that very same spot, joking in a very similar way after a difficult battle.
"So, what did you think of them?"
"They'll need training, lots of it... But they have the heart... They'll be fantastic."
"Rangers at the core, huh?"
"You could say that... What about that sludge we brought back for analysis from our latest planet ending event?"
"Metallic bioplasm, living metal, I'm not sure how to even start defining it. We ran it through the ships archive and had a match but the files are encrypted. Not even Zordon could access them. Alpha is trying to brute-force the system but we can't figure out exactly where that deep-space amplifier was trying to send out a signal until then.
"I just hope we were able to destroy it in time before it could reach whatever it was aiming for."
"Me too... We were able to access one thing from the files though."
"What was it?"
"Just two words, something called the Machine Empire."
-----------------------
In a deep, old and forgotten part of the universe, an ancient evil awakens.
Something so depraved and vile, even Lord Zedd himself had deemed necessary to seal away.
A hive of living machines, assimilating all biological matter it finds.
And after millenias of slumber, a blip, a hint of a signal reaches one of its communication captors, breaking their weakened prison.
The Machine Empire lives once more.
Hope you guys like it!

So, for reasons, are there any PR characters that people headcanon as absolutely batshit crazy? Just for fun… 😂
Like it could be based on something else an actor has been in or some one off thing mentioned or said by the characters that just make you think “what if…”
And like, you could say Tommy/Drakkon, but that’s an easy one and canon to one timeline of the comics. This could be like “so and so grows up to be a freaking murderer or this person definitely has a very specific and creepy fetish that’s practically illegal” some shit like that.
One that comes to mind for me: Mike and Leo Corbett are deeply codependent once they fully process the trauma that they went through as rangers that it affects their personal lives and the families they try to have later in life.
Maybe Tanya and Adam don’t work out and one of them becomes the crazy stalker ex of the other?
Or maybe Sky can’t handle the pressure of being a leader, even though he’s wanted to be red Ranger for so long, so he desperately seeks out Jack and tries to bring him back to SPD, but when he doesn’t… he snaps?
Listen, I adore these characters, but I’ve been watching a shit ton of horror lately and I’d love some dark takes.
Thoughts? Indulge in some chaos with me.

i know this isnt the most profound, expertly edited thing ever, but i wanted to make something for power rangers' thirtieth anniversary, because this show means so much to me, so, i tried to make something emotional for it, showcasing all of the endings or at the very least heartfelt moments from each season, followed by quick flashes of every team morphing (so yes, flashing lights warning)
(elephant in the room: there's no turbo or ninja steel representation in terms of the endings i included, in the former's case, it ended on a cliffhanger that led right into in space, so i just included part of in space's ending instead, and for the latter, i couldn't find a clip of ninja steel's ending that wasn't just the entire final episode
hyperforce wasn't included because i genuinely forgot but know that i do respect it as a part of power rangers' history, and the 2017 movie wasn't included because i was pretty much only thinking of the shows while making this, so it hadn't crossed my mind to include it, but i *do* like the movie)
here's to thirty more morphenomenal years :)
(reblogs are appreciated!)

For the WIP asks, ❌ and 💗?
Thanks so much for the ask! - <3 Gooseless
❌What WIP do you find the most challenging? Why?
Part of me wants to say all of them, but I'm going to have to say It's Gonna Be Ok for the sole reason of it being such different pacing and style than I usually write in, so I have to constantly be making sure it doesn't get messed up.
💗Is there a scene you can’t wait to write for a WIP?
There are four scenes that I'm really excited for in particular, two from Crescendo and the other two from separate beyblade fanfics.
The confession scene in Crescendo because it is adorable and just really sweet and the dialogue outline alone is already some of the favourite things I have ever written.
Zeo confronting Ziggurat in It's Gonna Be Ok because of the use of internal dialogue that I'm really looking forward to playing with.
When Marcus reunites with his son after the Crystal Theatre incident in the prologue of Crescendo (recent addition that was not planned originally lol) because the outline of it nearly made me and my beta reader cry.
A sort of montage like collection of short scenes of Motti training to be a DJ and her getting really good at it because it's going to be fun writing the shift of her still being in the shadow of the Nemesis cult and gradually stepping out of it while following her passions.
