Mighty Morphin Power Rangers is owned by Saban. Almost everything in this series is owned by Saban. Mind you this is not your typical MMPR fanfic. REALITY BENDS written by Shaun Garin Los Angeles, 1994 AD Sui-kyaaaaa!” With a vicious spin kick that didn’t really connect, a putty patroller flew backwards into a pile of mats. Then, a gruff voice called out “CUT! PRINT!” Jason David Frank removed the helmet that covered his face and wiped a trickle of sweat. Spandex or not, this was a hot costume. The director, aging and pudgy ran up with a big smile on his face. “Incredible Jason!” he enthused, “This will make the best episode of Power Rangers yet!” “Thanks,” he said before taking a towel from Amy Jo who stood to the side at the table of food. “Thanks Amy.” “No problem,” she replied. “Nice kick by the way.” “It’s nothing.” She shrugged before saying, “Oh, David is arranging a party in the park. Wanna come?” “Sure, just have to get changed out of this costume then I’ll meet you guys there.” With that, he snagged a donut and ran off towards wardrobe. Moon, same day. “AAAAHHH! AFTER TEN THOUSAND YEARS I’M FREEE!” Rita Repulsa turned to the assembled monsters and sneered at them. “Finster! Goldar! Squatt! Baboo! Prepare for an invasion!” Los Angeles Park “Heads up!” A spinning frisbee soared overhead towards Steve who caught it in a showboat forwards flip. David Yost grinned a bit. During filming, they never really had much fun. Steve Cardinas, a slightly hispanic actor played Rocky De Santos on the series they all worked on. “Steve! Over here!” Karan Ashley called to the short man. Steve wound up and tossed the frisbee.... ...only to be knocked out of the air by a energy bolt and a shower of sparks. “What the heck?” Johnny Yong Bosch shouted in shock, as a platoon of putties appeared from out of nowhere, accompanied by a familiar golden monkey. Amy Jo stood up and addressed the monkey, “get a life. What’s with borrowing the Goldar suit off company time?” The supposed Goldar snickered a bit before firing a bolt that carved a small trench before her feet. Amy leapt back with a yelp as he laughed. “Emperess Rita will conqour this world! And you can’t do anything about it! Putties, attack!” With a bubbling sound, the putty patrollers ran forwards, closing in on the actors. Karan blocked a front kick before the putties grabbed her, tossing her into a tree. “OW! These guys are real!” “Real enough huh? Lets see if they can handle actors! Lets go!” The six rushed into battle, hands and feet spinning. Soon though, it came to a sick realization that these Putties wern’t playing around, and they wern’t actors. Or stuntmen. As Jason pulled his fist back in shock from where the Putty had broken apart from a particularly solid hit, he looked up into the air. “No way...” he breathed. Goldar snarled a bit. “So, you teenagers will defy Empress Rita? Well you won’t live long enough to do so!” From his eyes, twin ruby beams lanced out, crashing against a tree, sending it toppling down atop the Teens heads. Goldar laughed before dissapearing from view in a rush of gold fire. Soon, Johnny’s hand pulled the rest of his body from the tangle of tree branches with a heave. “Ah geez, that’s going to leave a mark.” Amy was helped from the pile of leaves and branches, a nick of blood marring her temple. “Goldar. Do you think he really a monster?” “Dunno,” Jason said. “David, any thoughts?” David shook his head. “I can’t tell. I’m not Billy Cranston.” “Maybe some kind of lunatic?” Karan said. “But those pyrotechnics are too...real to be fake.” “Man, and I thought acting was dangerous,” Steve sighed in exhaustion. “We’d better get some rest. I have a feeling that Goldar will be back next time,” Jason said, his eyebrows knotting into an angry crease. Next Day “You okay Amy?” Jason asked of the shorter girl. “You seem jumpy.” “Yeah, I guess I am,” she admitted. “The putty attack really put me on edge. How are you handling up?” “Not so bad,” Jason said. “But what about the putties?” Just then, a grey hand tapped Jason’s shoulder. He yelped before pulling it over his shoulder into a flip. Drew fell to the ground with a thump and a cry of shock. “Hey! Whadja do that for?” he exclaimed. “Sorry man, been a little edgy.”
