12/29/2017

  Today, I finished Chapters 21, 27, 28, and 29.  In Chapter 21 concludes the side stories for the story, with the Elemental Universe (Universe E) as it's setting.  Agent E is in his Command Center, trying to plan his next move.  Not only does he have to worry about his Universe due to the current Avatar (Aang) still being trained, but now, he has to worry about Agent N coming for him.  Suddenly, he is alerted that the Fire Nation is attacking the Air Nomads, where the current Avatar is being trained.  Knowing it's a trap, Agent E knows that he can't risk the Avatar being killed, and teleports there.

  However, by the time he gets there, the battle has already been finished, with all of the Air Nomads being killed.  Agent E falls to his knees as he takes all of it in.  Suddenly, Agent N appears behind him, mocking him.  When Agent N reveals that he was the one who opened the gate for the Fire Nation to walk through, Agent E loses it.  He lunges towards Agent N, attacking him with the power of the elements.  He lands some strikes on Agent N, and it looks like he can win.  However, Agent N was only tricking Agent E by having him tire himself out.  Once Agent E couldn't fight anymore, Agent N executed his opportunity.  He managed to rip Agent E's Core out of him, and threw him over a cliff, killing him.

  The story then goes to a girl named Madison Brand, who is walking home from her job when she decides to make a trip to the market.  There, she notices that two Fire Nation guards are harassing a vendor for not paying them for "insurance".  Angered, Madison throws a rock at them, angering them.  Realizing that she bought off more than she could chew, Madison began running.  Once getting to a dead end, Madison thought she was done for.  Before the guards could attack her with fire, she was teleported.

  When she woke up, Madison noticed that she was on an island, thinking that she was dead.  But then, the island grew, revealing that it wasn't an island at all, but instead an Element Turtle.  Confused, Madison asked what was going on.  The Element Turtle explained to her about the Protectors.

  Later, the Element Turtle asked if Madison was up to the challenge, to which she agreed.  Using his power, the Element Turtle gave Madison the power of all elements.  After receiving her new powers, Madison had trouble controlling them.  The Element Turtle then told her that he would train her on how to master her abilities.  This is where the chapter ends.

  In Chapter 27, Doctor Strange fights Doctor Doom.  As the two have a brief chat, they begin to use their powers to fight.  Doctor Doom continues to launch blows of green lightning at the Sorcerer, but he easily deflects them.  Doctor Strange then teleports Doctor Doom to the Fire Dimension, where they continue to fight.  Doctor Strange then entraps Doom, and decides to leave him there as punishment. 
'
  However, as he opened a portal to leave, Doctor Doom broke free and struck the Sorcerer with a burst of green lightning.  Caught off guard, Doctor Strange was damaged and fell.  Doctor Doom then exited the portal, and was about to strike a finishing blow on the Sorcerer.  Doom asked Strange if he had any last words, to which the Sorcerer responded "Brace yourself".

  Confused, Doctor Doom turned around and say Ethan in his giant form, kicking him into the air.  Ethan then shrunk back to his normal self and aided the Sorcerer.  After a brief chat, the two went after Doctor Doom.  This is where the Chapter ends.

  In Chapter 28, Agent X fights a weakened Agent N, who cannot use his powers.  As Agent X takes out his two swords and Agent N activates his pike, the two charge towards each other.  The two kept blocking each other's blows until Agent X blasted Agent N with his Core.  With Agent N on the ground, Agent X prepared to strike his Core.

  Before he could do that, Agent X was thrown away by the Reverse Flash, who just exited a portal.  The speedster then proceeded to give Agent N the Dark Stone and Staff.  Agent X couldn't believe his eyes, and realized tat this was all a distraction.

  As Agent N put the two objects together, it emitted a massive amount of Dark Energy.  When the Dark Energy cleared, Agent N was holding the Dark Stone in his hands.  Agent X tried to get up, but was too weak.  The Reverse Flash then urged Agent N to give him his payment, with Agent N agreeing.  He the pulled out a vial containing Velocity X, a speed drug that could give the user unlimited speed and power.

  Agent N then proceeded to leave, walking through a portal.  Agent X saw the Reverse Flash holding the vial, laughing.  Agent X knew that he couldn't have the serum, so with all of his power, Agent X blasted the serum with his hand, destroying it.  Enraged, Thawne ran up to Agent X and struck him over and over.

  Finally, Thawne chocked Agent X, and vibrated his hand towards the Protector's Core.  However, before he could do it, Thawne was made frozen by Ben, who was using the Force.  Barry then ran up to Thawne and punched him, knocking him out.

  Later, the team finds out about what happened, and the team boards the Universe Jumper to report back to Verndari and come up with a plan.  This is where the Chapter ends.

  In Chapter 29, the Protectors travel back to the Unknown Sector, where Verndari is waiting.  Once they land, the Grand Protector greets them, urging them to follow him as he has something to show them.  When they enter the room, they see three other people standing there.  He explains that after discovering that Agent N possessed the Dark Stone, he deiced to search the Multiverse for anyone that could help, leading him to the three individuals.  

Verndari introduces them to Andrew Hunter of Universe L (appears in Chapter 13), who is wearing a white power ring.  Next is Brandon Riley (appears in Chapter 15), who is wearing a strange-looking watch.  And finally, he introduces them to Madison Brand (appears in Chapter 21), who is wearing battle armor.

  After the introduction, Verndari and the team begin discussing the plan.  They plan on teleporting to Homeworld, where they would move towards the giant energy shield protecting the Grand Temple.  The only way to get through the shield is if they focused a massive amount of energy on a specific spot which would briefly open a hole in the shield.  Once through, they would move into the Grand Temple to find Agent N.  Agent X believes that Agent N would be in the Observatory.
After finishing the plan, the team began preparing. 

  Once finished, everyone boarded the Universe Jumper.  Agent X had a brief chat with Verndari, wishing him and his team luck.  Once finished, the team set off on their mission.  This is where the Chapter ends.

  Like the previous entry, I will explain more about the villains seen in Chapter 27.

Victor Von Doom (Doctor Doom)

Abilities:
*Magic
*Control Electricity
*Telepathy
Equipment:
*Green Cloak
*Vibranium Armor
Bio: Victor Von Doom allowed Reed Richards to bring a team to a solar flare, believing they could use it to create a new type of energy.  Going into space with them, Victor, along with the other members, became exposed to the solar flare's energy, reorganizing their genes.  Later, Victor found out that the flare gave him the power of telepathy along with controlling nearby electricity.  This drove Victor to evil, using his power to take over the world under the alias Doctor Doom.  However, his plan was stopped by the Fantastic Four.

  Doctor Doom later formed the Legion of Doom, a group of Supervillains who wanted to stop the Avengers and S.H.I.E.L.D.  His advanced abilities made him a perfect choice for Agent N's group of villains.

  Before I end this update, here is a few interesting facts about the chapters:
*Chapter 21 takes place after the events of Chapter 5
*At this point, each of the three Protectors have finished their main story along with mastering their abilities
 *Andrew has defeated the Black Hand and saved all of the other Lantern Corps from destruction.  He can also channel the power of the Black Lanterns without being corrupted
 *Brandon has stopped Kayren and knows how to morph into every Power Ranger
 *Madison has mastered all four elements

11/25/2017

  Today, I finished Chapter 25 and 26 of my story.  In Chapter 25, Ben fights Deathstroke in an intense battle of who's stronger.  While Ben was stronger then the mercenary, Deathstroke was smarter and knew how to fight make the battle even.  He used dozens of gadgets, like a flash bang which blinded the Jedi.  However, being trained in he Jedi arts, Ben learned to fight without sight, and was able to stop the mercenary. 

  Trying to even the odds, Deathstroke used a grapple gun to disarm the Jedi, engaging him in hand-to-hand combat.  Having the advantage, Deathstroke easily defeated the Jedi.  As Deathstroke pulled out his pistol and pulled the trigger, he noticed that the gun didn't fire.  Not realizing that Ben had been using the Force to prevent the bullet from firing, Deathstroke tried fighting back, but was held in place by the Jedi.  Channeling the Force, Ben threw the mercenary into the rocks, knocking him out.  After retrieving his lightsaber, the Jedi ran towards the others.  This is where the chapter ends.

  In Chapter 26, Ethan fights Captain Boomerang.  Captain Boomerang throws multiple boomerangs at the Protector, with one secretly being an E.M.P.  Unaware of this, Ethan wasn't able to stop the boomerang, which exploded, disabling Ethan's Core.  Taking cover, Ethan tries to come up with a way to stop Captain Boomerang.  He decides to charge the attacker, fighting him his own way.  Escaping his cover, Ethan charges Captain Boomerang, extending his blade.  The two fight briefly before Ethan gains the upper hand.  Ethan then tells the defeated Captain to give up, which he does.  Afterwards, Ethan sees an explosion in the distance.  Knowing that he needs to get to them, he's informed that some of his Core's systems are back online.  Without hesitation, Ethan rushes to help.  This is where the chapter ends.

  Like the previous entry, I will give more information on these chapter's villains.

*Agility
Equipment:
*Body Armor
*Dual Pistols

11/7/2017

  Today I finished Chapter 22, 23, and 24 of my story.  Note that I haven't completed Chapter 21 yet as I am still determining how to write the final side story.

  In Chapter 22, the Protectors go to Universe S to seek help from Doctor Strange, a powerful sorcerer who protects Earth from mystical attacks, to hide the Dark Stone and Staff from Agent N.  When they get to his Sanctum Sanctorum, he agrees to help them.  However, they are interrupted by Agent N, who brought together a group of the Universes supervillains to stop the Protectors, including Doctor Doom, the Green Goblin, Captain Boomerang, Deathstroke, and the Reverse Flash.  Doctor Strange teleports everyone to a dimension without technology (Agent N's weakness), where each member fights a supervillain.  This is where the chapter ends.

  In Chapter 23, we see the first fight between Barry Allen and Eobard Thawne, the Reverse Flash.  The two speedsters race each other all over the dimension, with the Reverse Flash outrunning Barry.  Eventually, the two fight each other, but Thawne easily defeats Barry.  As Thawne taunts Barry on how weak he is, Barry tells Thawne that he will never stop fighting, and manages to gain enough strength to punch Thawne repeatedly, and manages to punch him into the air.  When Barry tells Thanwe that its over, the Reverse Flash admits defeat this time, then escapes by teleporting (an ability speedsters can do).  After he escapes, Barry receives a message from John, asking him if he's there, to which Barry responds back.  This is where the chapter ends.

  In Chapter 24, we see the next fight between John and Norman Osborn, the Green Goblin.  John chases the Green Goblin using his jetpack, to which the Green Goblin laughs psychotically and fires the machine guns in his glider, but John manages to dodge the attack.  The Green Goblin then throws multiple pumpkin bombs at John, with one managing to hit him, causing him to crash to the ground.  As he gets up, the Green Goblin strafes John with his machine guns, but John manages to hide behind a rock.  After the Green Goblin passes, John reactivates his jetpack and attempts to get the Green Goblin off his glider. 

  He manages to do so, and he begins firing at the Green Goblin with his wrist pistols.  The Green Goblin's tough armor deflected the attack, and he threw multiple pumpkin bombs at John.  However, these weren't bombs, as the outer shells broke off and 4 sharp blades extended from them.  Surprised, John attempts to dodge them, but one manages to cut his shoulder.  As he tries to ignore his injury, the Green Goblin takes out a long blade and attacks John.  John activates his own wrist blade and deflects the Green Goblin's attack, and counter attacks him multiple times, but does no damage.  The Green Goblin then tries to stab John, but he grabs the blade and throws it away.    

  The Green Goblin then calls back his glider, which takes John by surprise as it slams into him.  After the Green Goblin gets back on his glider, he activates the glider's 2 long blades and flies towards John.  John runs away and tries to contact Barry.  This part is seen at the end of the previous chapter.  After telling Barry to come, John turns around and runs towards the glider.  Before he's impaled, John slides under the glider and immediately fires his grappling hook at the glider, successfully catching it.

  As the Green Goblin tries to escape, Barry comes running and runs on top of the cable and punches the Green Goblin, causing him to fly off of his glider.  The two then walk up to the unconscious Green Goblin, and take in the victory.  This is where the chapter ends.

  These were all supposed to be one chapter, but I decided to make each fight its own chapter because I didn't want to make them quick and stale.  Chapter 24 was really tough, because since the Flash and the Reverse Flash are speedsters, there isn't much action besides running.  When trying to come up with ideas for the fight, I went back to the CW Flash TV series, where the Flash of this story takes inspiration from, and remembered that whole the Reverse Flash was faster then Barry, he was also better in hand-to-hand combat.  I decided to give the Reverse Flash the same quality, resulting in the hand-to-hand part of the fight.  While Barry may seem far slower than the Reverse Flash, this isn't necessarily the case. 

  At the time of this story, Barry has been a superhero for 4 years, and has fought Thawne dozens of times, and many of those times, Barry lost.  At this point, Barry is much faster and more experienced, but still isn't as powerful as Thawne due to the fact that Thawne has trained to become faster and faster way longer then Barry has.  Due to this, Thawne has often acted cocky, which usually causes him to lose like he did in this chapter.

  While I briefly explained the backstory for each supervillain, I've decided to go ahead and further explain each supervillain in more detail.

Eobard Thawne (Reverse Flash) 

Abilities/Powers: 
*Super Speed
 *Phase through matter
 *Speed Mirage
 *Throw Lightning
 *Time Travel
 *Travel through Universes and Dimensions
*High Intellect
*Martial Arts
Equipment:
*Reverse Flash Costume
*Reverse Flash Ring 
Bio: 
  Eobard Thawne was a electrical technician at S.T.A.R. Labs, where he watched over Lab's extremely advanced Electric Generator, which was similar to Tony Stark's (Iron Man) ARC Reactor.  He was present at S.T.A.R. Labs the day the Particle Accelerator went off.  He knew that if the Accelerator exploded, the Electric Generator would too, and cause terrible damage.  Thawne tried to turn off the generator, but was too late.  When the Accelerator exploded, it caused the Electric Generator to explode as well, releasing lighting all over.  One of those lightning bolts managed to strike Thawne, and with the combined power of dark matter, immediately gave him super speed.  He managed to move so fast, he accidently time traveled 100 years into the future.  Unknown where he was, Thawne investigated, where he stumbled upon the Flash Museum.  Curious, Thawne went inside. 

  He saw the various Flash's and his villains when one of them caught his eye, a yellow-suited figure called the Reverse Flash.  Thawne noticed that he looked familiar, and when he looked closer, he noticed that the person's real name was Eobard Thawne.  Thawne couldn't believe it, but began to realize his powers.  He spent the next few years mastering his powers and learning about the Flash and their various battles throughout the years.  Finally, Thawne was ready, and after stealing the Reverse Flash costume from the museum, he traveled back in time back to the present, where he watched over the Flash, waiting for him to become fast enough to challenge him.

  When finally revealing himself, Thawne easily defeated the Flash.  After a few months, the Flash asked the help of some friends who helped stop him.  He was taken by S.H.I.E.L.D., but was broken out by the Legion of Doom, an evil organization of super villains led by Doctor Doom.  He continued fighting the Flash, and was even recruited by Agent N during the Multiverse Conflict.                   

Norman Osborn (Green Goblin)

Abilities/Powers:
*Enhanced Strength
*High Intellect
Equipment:
*Goblin Armor
*Glider
*Pumpkin Bombs
*Extendable Blade
Bio:
  Norman Osborn, the CEO of Oscorp Industries, was always in competition as the superior weapons manufacturer with Stark Industries and Hammer Industries.  Unlike the other companies, Norman was obsessed with making a Super Soldier Serum that was used to make Captain America, and dedicated years of research to find out the formula.  When the government caught track of this, they ordered him to shut it down.  Refusing to do so, Norman took the uncompleted formula and tested it on himself.  It enhanced his strength and other abilities, but also made him lose his mind. 

  He adopted anther identity as the Green Goblin, and became obsessed with Spider-man.  He used his companies weapons to wreak havoc over New York by supplying various villains with technology to stop Spider-man.  When the villians kept failing, Norman realized he had to stop Spioder-man, and used various technology to fight him.  He wore an advanced combat suit with a helmet that had a HUD.  He also took a military glider packed with weapons such as machine guns, missiles, and grenades that he turned into pumpkin bombs, along with many more technology.

  He has proved to be a powerful villain against Spider-man, similar to Batman and the Joker (who also exist in this Universe), and was even recruited by Agent N, to fight the Protectors.

10/21/2017

  Today, I finished Chapters 18, 19, and 20 of my story.  Originally, I planned on having these be one chapter, but after seeing how long it was, I decided to split it into multiple chapters.

  In Chapter 18, we are introduced to Admiral Graksis O'neal, an Admiral in the New Republic Navy.  He just received orders from High Command (the group of people we saw in the previous chapter) to intercept a Sith Fleet that is trying to get to Coruscant.  When arriving to the coordinates, the Admiral began planning the upcoming battle.

  We then see Darth Havok and his flee exit hyperspace, where they attack the New Republic Fleet.  While attacking, the Sith Lord left the bridge to get something that would end the battle quickly.

  We then go back to the Admiral O'neal, who was doing well in the battle until suddenly, two ships from his fleet began colliding into each other.  After being told that there was nothing wrong with the ships, and they weren't close enough to the nearby planet to be affected by it's gravity, the Admiral concluded that it had to be from a Force User, but even then, that seemed impossible.  The Admiral now knew why High Command was so worried about this.

  We then go to the Universe Jumper, which has finally caught up with the fleet.  The team looked at the massive battle, and Agent X told them that that the Dark Stone was there alright, as it was emitting massive amounts of dark Energy.  Ben suddenly realizes that the other fleet is part of the 907th, the group Ben was leading before he was teleported.  Knowing that they had to do something before the fleet was wiped out, John came up with a plan.  The Universe Jumper would destroy the Sith Flagship's engines, and Ben would use the Force to push the ship towards the nearby planet.  Without any engines to stop it, the ship would be caught in the planet's gravity and crash.  While doing this, John would provide support by engaging the enemy ships.  This is where the chapter ends.

  In Chapter 19, we see Darth Havok destroying the enemy fleet, when suddenly, the ship shook.  The Sith is then told that the ship's engines had been attacked.  Furious, Darth Havok told then officer to take care of it while he dealt with the New Republic Flagship.

  We then go to the Protectors, who prepare another attack run on the ship's engines.  Evading the ship's defensive armament, Agent X managed to again fire on the engines, but barley did any damage.  Knowing that they had to keep trying, they began another attack run, but were interrupted by enemy fighters.  John then flew out of the ship to divide the enemy fighters.  Using his skills, John was able to take out a few fighters.  But knew that the team had to hurry.

  The Universe Jumper evaded the enemy fighters and Agent X came up with an idea.  When the enemy fighters fired missiles at the Universe Jumper, Agent X flew the ship towards the ship's engines, and at the last second, quickly flew the ship away from the engines.  Without enough time to react, the missiles flew right into the engines, destroying them.  Now that they were destroyed, Ben used the Force to push the ship towards the planet.

  We then see Admiral O'neal, who began to lose hope in winning the battle.  He considered retreating but he couldn't afford the Sith Fleet to make it to Coruscant.  Suddenly, a nearby ship began losing control like the others and began drifting towards the Admiral's Flagship.  Knowing there was nothing he could do, the Admiral accepted his fate.  Just then, the ship stopped drifting, which surprised the Admiral.  As he looked at the enemy Flagship, he noticed that it was now drifting towards the planet.    

  We then go to Darth Havok, who was about to destroy the Republic Flagship, but was again interrupted when the ship shook.  He was told by the officer that the ship's engines were destroyed, and they were drifting towards the planet's surface.  Furious, the Sith Lord ordered to abandon ship.

  With the tide now turned in the Republic's favor, the Admiral looked down at the falling flagship and ordered a group of troopers to go down to the planet to look for survivors.

  We then go back to the Protectors, who fly towards the planet to retrieve the Dark Stone.  This is where the chapter ends.

  In Chapter 20, Darth Havok escapes his Flagship via his shuttle, and tries to fly back to his fleet so that he could escape, but was intercepted by the Universe Jumper.  After shooting him down, he crashes towards the surface.  The team then lands with John staying behind, and heads towards the crash site.  When they get to it, they see Darth Havok emerging from the debris.

  The team then engages the Sith Lord, each member managing to put up a fight, but were overpowered by the Sith Lords power.  Eventually, the Sith Lord has enough, and attempts to destroy them with the Dark Stone.  However, the Stone proves to be too much power, and Darth Havok gets destroyed by the Dark Stone.

  As the team heads back to the ship, they are intercepted by a group of New Republic Troopers, one being Commander Phoenix.  At first, they wanted to take the team in for questioning, but was interrupted when Ben told them to belay that order.  Everyone was surprised, including Commander Phoenix, who thought that Ben was dead.  Ben briefly explains what's going on, and the commander allows them to leave.  Before going, however, Commander Phoenix asked Ben what they called themselves, with Ben saying that they called themselves "The protectors" with a bit of humor.  The team then departed the planet.

  The team then discussed what they were going to do with the Dark Stone and staff, with Barry having an idea, saying he knew just the person to help them.  This is where the chapter ends.

  Before I end this update, here are a few interesting facts about the chapters:
*The reason Darth Havok could hold the Dark Stone for a small amount of time is because of how powerful he is in the Dark Side of the Force
 *However, this doesn't mean that he could hold it for a long time, as this proved to be his downfall
*Admiral Graksis O'neal is one of the smartest Admirals in the New Republic Navy
*At the end of Chapter 20, Barry mentions that he knows a guy, referring to Doctor Strange

10/3/2017

  Today I finished Chapter 17 of my story.  In this Chapter, we see the Protectors go to the planet Orgaan 6, the setting of the previous chapter.  We see the team look at the damage done by Darth Havok and locate the Dark Stone's crash site.  After accessing the damage, Agent X believes that someone used the Dark Stone, and Ben assumes that a Sith Lord used it since they have a connection to the Dark Side of the Force.  However, while the Dark Stone was on the planet, it's long gone.  Before the team gives up, however, Ben believes he knows where the Sith Lord is going.  He thinks that he is going to Coruscant, the capitol of the New Republic.  Seeing no other option, the team rushes to the Universe Jumper and head in the Sith's direction.

  We then go to Coruscant, where the New Republic's highest military officials have meted to discuss the problem.  They learn that it is indeed a Sith Lord, and they are on a course for Coruscant.  They suggest building a fleet around Coruscant, but is shot down by High General Verno, who states that they wouldn't have enough time to build the fleet.  Grand Admiral Xander came up with a solution to the problem.  He stated that the 907th Legion wasn't too far from the Sith's trajectory, and suggested that they use them as a distraction to hold off the fleet long enough for them to build a fleet around Coruscant.  There was a slight backlash, but ultimately, everyone agreed.  The Admiral then proceeded to contact the fleet.  This is where the chapter ends.

  Before I end this update here are a few interesting facts about the chapter:
*The 907th Legion was the Legion Ben Merrick was in charge of

9/26/2017

  Today I finished Chapter 16 of my story.  In this chapter, we see what happens to the Dark Stone after Agent X teleported it.  It was teleported to Universe F, where it crash landed on a planet known as Orgaan, where the New Republic was engaging the Sith Empire.  It was found by a team of Sith Troopers (the foot soldiers of the Sith Empire) and then brought to Darth Havoc, a Sith Lord who is leading the forces on the planet.  Due to the massive amount of Dark Energy, it amplified Darth Havoc's power (since he uses the Dark Side of the Force), allowing him to push back the Republic forces to the point of retreating from the planet.  Later, an officer informs Darth Havoc that the Supreme Leader is pleased, but now needs his troops to go to another planet.  Darth Havoc disagrees, and believes with this new power, he can end the war once and for all.  He then orders the officer to plot a course for Coruscant (the home world of the New Republic).  This is where the chapter ends.

  At first, I wasn't sure of including this side story at all, but I realized that the next chapter (where the team tries to stop Darth Havoc) would cause a lot of confusion about what's going on, so I decided to add it in.

  Before I end this update, here are a few interesting facts about the chapter:
*This chapter takes place right after Chapter 5

9/15/2017

  Today, I finished Chapter 15 of my story.  This chapter is the second side story of the book.  It's set in the Morphing Universe (Universe M), where Agent M, who is worried about the others because he hasn't been able to contact them.  Agent N lures him into a trap by releasing Kayren, one of the first power rangers (more on that later).  Agent M knows he can't allow Kayren to be released, so he attempts to stop N.  However, by the time he gets there, he's too late.  Kayren is released and Agent N leaves him to deal with Agent M.  After leaving, Kayren fights Agent M.  Agent M attempts to fight back, but is quickly stopped by Kayren.  Wanting revenge for being imprisoned for centuries, Kayren destroys Agent M's helmet and leaves him to die.  Since his helmet was broken off earlier in the fight, Agent M is suffocating due to the lack of air (since he's on Mars).  Before dying, Agent M tells his A.I. to launch the contingency plan.  Granting his master's dying wish, the A.I. launches a watch-like device to Earth, where someone worthy will find it.

  We then meet Brandon Riley, who is walking in a forest at night.  He sees a meteor crash in the forest, and goes to investigate.  When he gets to the meteor, all he finds is a watch.  Reaching for it, the watch scans and latches onto him.  Trying to get it off, the watch activates and he is transformed into a power ranger.  This is where the chapter ends.

  Universe M (the Morphing Universe) is based off of Saban's Power Rangers series.  In this Universe, there is a power source known as the Morphing Grid.  This power allows people to transform into Power Rangers.  I really wanted to keep the original power rangers and the 2017 versions, so in this story, they exist in different dimensions (sub-universes).  Basically, Agent M had the power of the entire Morphing Grid, and could basically turn into any power ranger.  During his time as a Protector, Agent M realized the potential of the Morphing Gird, and chose a group of people to make up a team powered by the Morphing Grid.  This team would become the first Power Rangers.  


  Before I end this update, here are a few interesting facts about the chapter:
*This chapter takes after the events of Chapter 13
