One cold night, Mr. Grandruler and his wife Principal Celestia were riding back to their grand-manor on near a side of the island, overlooking the sea, and away from all the hustling-bustling noises and crowdedness of the city. Celesto is a millionaire, business-man, ex-astronaut. He flew on many space missions, was one of the last men to walk on the moon, and served aboard the international space station. A tall man wearing a white suit, and a black tie, a red cape and holding a walking stick. His hair was dyed a very darkish blue. Celestia was six months pregnant with fraternal twins.

Suddenly, something rushed across with road, making the driver hit the brakes. "What happened?" snapped Celesto.

"Something just leaped across the road, sir." the driver replied. The pair looked out the window and saw very strange creature. This one was 22 feet long and it had a wingspan of 42 feet long. It was sleek with lighter coloring and glimmering textures that include white, cream, and pink. It had a long, single spine running down the center of their back and light blue eyes. It also have two pairs of ear-like appendages on the top of their heads and a pink-colored nose.

The creature looked back for a moment before rushing off.

"What...was.... that?" Celestia asked.

"That definitely was not a deer." Celesto added. Just then, her opened the door and got out, "Honey, where are you going?"

"Something's telling there something going on with that creature." He began to walk away, trailing the creature from a distance. "Hey, wait!" Celestia called as she opened her door and followed him.

The creature was walking towards an alleyway. It looked back and the couple hid out of sight. When the creature turned back around, they came out and trailed her to the mouth of the alleyway. They peeked around the corner and saw the creature curling up around something. The two squinted their eyes a little and gasped.

The 'something' was a teenage girl! She was light skinned with aquamarine hair with a single purple streak in it. Her clothes looked really tattered and had holes in it. Even with the creature curled around her, the girl still shivered in the cold air. "Oh dear." Celestia gasped.

Mr. Grandruler started to walk down the alleyway. "Honey, what are you doing?" Celestia whispered.

Her husband didn't reply. He carefully walked down the alleyway. The creature saw him and hissed at him. "Easy girl, easy." he cooed. "I'm not here to hurt you. I just wanna help your friends there." The creature was still tensed until the girl coughed and sneezed. The creature calmed down and looked at Mr. Grandruler. He nodded and the creature allowed him access to the girl. He bent down and felt the girls' head. "She's got a high fever."

Mr. Grandruler picked her up in his arms, "Come on." he said to the creature.

The creature nodded and followed him out the alleyway and back to the white limo along with his wife.

The girl slowly began opening her eyes and she saw Mr. Grandruler and Celestia. She flinched a little and looked around in shock, seeing that she was in a large living room and she had a blanket on her. "Easy little one, we won't hurt you." Celestia cooed.

The girl whined a little, "I'm Celesto Grandruler and this is my wife, Celestia. What's your name?"

"S-Sapphire S-Sunlight." the girl said in a soft voice, like Fluttershys'. “W-Where's Snowflake?"

"Snowflake?" Celestia asked.

"My Light Fury Dragon. Snowflake?" The Light Fury warbled and came to her side. "Snowflake, are you okay?" Snowflake nodded and nuzzled Sapphire. The pair could instantly see the two shared a strong bond with each other. "Sapphire... what were you and Snowflake doing in the alleyway?"

Sapphire twittled her fingers, "I-I don't really don't want to talk about it." she said nervously.

The couple respected her wishes and Celesto asked, "Tell me, have you ever been to school before?"

Sapphire shook her head, "No." Grandruler told Sapphire that he's planning to enroll him in high-school, to help set her back on the right track. Sapphire looked really nervous now. "It's alright, we know some people who we can have look out for you." Celestia stated.

"O-Okay."

"Now come on, let's go to bed." Mr. Grandruler said.

The pair had Sapphire sleep in a guest bedroom and Snowflake slept on the floor, next to the bed. "Goodnight, Sapphire." Celestia said.

"Goodnight." Sapphire said and she fell asleep.

It was another day at Canterlot High and all the students were in walking to class. The rangers and Twilight were walking to their history class aka Lightning's class.

“I can't wait for history class!" Twilight exclaimed.

"Ugh. You are such an egghead, Twilight." Rainbow dash complained.

"I'm not an egghead." Twilight countered. Everybody else rolled their eyes. They walked into their history class and Lightning took his seat at his teacher's desk while his friends took to their normal seats.

Just when Lightning was about to start talking, Principal Celestia came with Sapphire Sunlight. "Hello Lightning, this is Sapphire Sunlight, she’s going to be a new student in your class.” she said.

Sapphire tried to hid behind Principal Celestia. “She’s really shy, for some reason.”

“Alright. Sapphire, you can take your seat next to Twilight, okay?” Sapphire nodded and quickly walked over to her seat, avoiding eye contact with anybody.

And so Lightning began to teach his class. Today’s topic was World War I. As usual, Twilight answered most of the questions, but when Lightning asked for Sapphire to answer on, she just stayed quiet and looked away from him. “Sapphire? Are you okay?” Sapphire just nodded still not saying a word. Twilight and the others could sense something was bothering Sapphire.

Soon, class ended and the student were going to their next class. “Sapphire, can I talk to you for a moment?”

Sapphire stopped walking and turned towards Lightning, not making eye contact. “Sapphire, is there something bothering you?”

Sapphire shook her head. “Then why wouldn’t you answer when I called on you?”

Sapphire still didn’t reply. Lightning could see he wasn’t going to get an answer out of Sapphire yet so he decided to let it go… for now.

After class, Sapphire was walking towards her next class: Biology. A trio of burly male students suddenly blocked her path. They all looked like they were in a gang; biker jackets and chains on their necks and etc. The leader had black hair and had a small scar on his cheek. "Um... pardon me." Sapphire said shyly. She tried to walk around them, but two of them blocked her path again. "So you're the new girl at the school, huh? You know what I call newbies around here; Fresh meat!” the leader said.

Sapphire shuddered a little, "Please, I'm just trying to get to class."

The boys approached her in a threatening manner. Sapphire's heart started racing and her blood started pumping, "Boys, let's show her what we do to newbies around here." the leader said. They were about to lunge at her when... "Leave... me... ALONE!!!!"

When she screamed alone what came out was a loud male lion roar that sent the trio flying down the hall and frightened the other students in the area. Sapphire stopped roaring and looked at the minor damage. "What happened here?" a voice asked. She turned and saw a tall woman with voluminous purple, sparkling hair coming onto the scene followed by Celesto and Celestia. The trio of boys groaned while Sapphire was quickly walked away to her Biology Class. Lightning Dawn and the others saw the whole thing and were totally shocked.

They were excused from their next class so they could speak to the three adults.

"She roared like a lion?!" the three adults exclaimed.

"Yeah. The boys were threatening her, she screamed at them. Her scream turned into a lions' roar and she sent to boys flying down the hall!" Buddy exclaimed. "I've never seen anyone do that in my life!"

"Oh my. This is a first for me." Lightning said.

"I sensed something was different about her, but I never thought she was that different." Celesto added. "Where is she now?"

"We don't know. She walked away when you three showed up and we haven't seen her since." Rainbow said.

"Umm.. excuse me?" Everyone turned and saw Fluttershy coming in. "Umm.. Sapphire's.. um... crying near my locker."

"Crying?" Celestia asked with worry. Fluttershy nodded and she led the others over to her locker where they found Sapphire sniffling. "Sapphire... are you okay?" Sunset asked.

Sapphire sniffled and shook her head. "Oh, you poor thing." Fluttershy cooed as she hugged Sapphire. Celestia came up to her, "Sapphire?" Sapphire looked at her. "Do you wanna go home?"

Sapphire nodded, "Okay, I'll take you home." Celestia lead Sapphire away while her husband and the others watched. "Poor kid." Rainbow said. The other felt pity for her.

Meanwhile, Marla, a very beautiful humanoid lady. She had pale grey skin, pointy ears, long, flowing light pink hair that ran all the way near the ground. She wore a red, sparkling, armored vest with a black skirt attached and matching black boots on her feet, and long fingerless black gloves, was walking down the round walkways, passing by each cell and inspecting the prisoners on their looks.

“Ugh! Too dark!

Too hairy!

Ew, gross! I think I’m going to gag!”

The three creatures did not take kindly to her scoffing at them and would have loved nothing more than to teach her some respect as they hammered at their cells, snarling at her.

Marla just blew them a raspberry, “Tough bricks, boys!”

She got out her compact mirror and gazed at her beautiful face “It’s so hard to be ravishing in a world of ugly creatures.”

More creatures overhearing felt very offended and Marla then heard one of them speak out from a cell behind her, “Beauty isn’t the only thing you know…!”

Marla felt so shocked, not just by that outburst, that she nearly dropped her mirror. “That voice! Oh, no… it can’t be!” she turned and looked in the cell behind her, and inside was a female humanoid, devil-like creature with red skin, and white horns on her red. She even had a devil’s tail.

“Devila!” sneered Marla.

“It’s been a while hasn’t it, old friend!” Devila hissed.

“Ha! You and I were never anything more than partners in crime…”

Marla recalled how she and Devila were once the greatest notorious of intergalactic jewel heisters in the entire Dimensional Galaxy from their world.

With Marla’s incredible charm that could stun just about anyone, and with Devila’s cunning… as well as a super special trick she could perform… they robbed whole star-systems of their precious jewels, ores and refinery materials.

…But then, one day, while during a heist in trying to take a set of crown jewels being donated to a museum on a planet. Things went horribly wrong, Marla and Devila were about to capture the crown jewels, when Marla realized she had horrible split ends in her hair, and a hangnail, which made her scream out in shock… giving both crooks away and alerted the guards.

It also turned out that the crown jewels they tried to steal belonged to Grand Ruler Celesto, the commander-in-chief of Starfleet, and ruler of the planet Unicornicopia, whom was donating his crown jewels for a charity cause.

The ladies were caught and arrested, and from that moment on they become such bickering ninnies, that the guards threw them in separate cells in the tower.

“Why Vulcan lets an overbearing diva like you serve him directly, I’ll never know.”

Marla was losing her temper and protested, “At least I’m not trapped in a cell anymore!”

The bickering was getting so annoying, many of the prisoners hid under their mattresses to drown out the sound.

“QUIET!!!” Vulcan shouted as he appeared before the bickering ladies. Vulcan was a humanoid like alien, the same height and Marla. He seemed rather muscular. He wore a black armored vest, with a black overcoat, with matching black pants, black boots with spikes at the toes. His hands were crimson red and scaly and had sharp claws, like a dragon. His head seemed human shaped, but was red, scaly, his hair was fiery orange with red highlights and stuck up all over like a flame. Yet his facial features were humanoid, and he wore a solid mask like shades across his eyes.

The ladies trembled before him and his look of fury and annoyance, and he unlocked Devila’s cell, turning her loose. “Since you both claimed to be old accomplishes, you can both get out there and find a way to crush those rangers.”

“WHAT?!” the ladies whined, not looking forward to the idea of working with each other again, but Vulcan flared up and thundered “…GET GOING!!”

The ladies freaked out and left the tower in the blink of an eye.

Bronc, a big muscular armored creature, much taller and muscular than the others. Very little of his actual body was scene as he was covered in head to toe in white and blue armor, complete with a helmet hiding his features. He almost looked robotic, but he wasn’t, and Keto was a mage, though shorter than the others, about up to Marla’s upper-body. His skin was gold colored, he wore a black witch hat, a red cape, a green robe, and he carried a long metal staff with an upside-down crescent-moon with a large red ruby in the center at the top, saw the whole thing, “Very well done sir.”

Vulcan snuffed “At least it stops them nagging. Now they’re the rangers’ problem.”

The bickering ladies appeared on Mystic Island, deep within the city, but remained out of sight.

Devila stretched out and took in a huge breath, “Ah, it feels so good to be free again.”

Marla was still being sulky. “Glad you’re enjoying yourself, but just what are we supposed to do now?”

“What do you mean “What do we do?”

“I mean… how are we supposed to get the rangers without a plan?”

“I was asking metaphorically! Gosh you are such a whiner! I already have a plan…and it involves and old trick of mine.”

She demonstrated her little trick before Marla, revealing she still had it in her. “Hmm, somewhat impressive.” said Marla, but she then grinned wickedly realizing what a dastardly trap they could set. “The rangers will never know what hit them.”

After school was let out, the rangers decided to check on Sapphire. They entered Celesto's mansion and were surprised to see Snowflake next to her. Snowflake hissed at them, "No, no, it's alright. They're my, sniffle, friends." Sapphire said. Snowflake calmed down.

"So she's your..." Rainbow trailed.

"Light Fury dragon, Snowflake." Sapphire replied.

“Feeling better?” Lightning called. Sapphire nodded. “M-Mr. Grandruler, V-Vice Principal L-Luna a-and P-Principal Celestia are v-very nice.”

Fluttershy sat next to her and Snowflake warbled, "She's very beautiful." she said.

"Thank you." Sapphire said.

"Where'd you find her?"

"Umm.... I d-don't really want to talk about it." Fluttershy and the others could tell that something bad must have happened to Sapphire. She didn't want to discuss her past with anyone, which was strange and concerning. Anyway, Fluttershy and the others decided to introduce themselves to Sapphire. They told her their respective names and that they were the Power Rangers, which confused her a little, but they explained everything.

"Don't worry about school, we'll be there for you." Rainbow said.

"Really?" Sapphire asked.

"You bet."

"We won't let anyone hurt you." Buddy stated.

Sapphire grinned at the gang, "Thank you." Sunset and the others hugged her while Celesto, Luna and Celestia watched her proud smiles. It looked like a bright future for Sapphire. The moment was ruined by the jewel on Celesto’s cane and the rangers' morphers flashing red, meaning there was trouble a foot! “What’s that?” Sapphire asked.

“The red-alert. There’s trouble in town. We’d better get going guys.” Sunset replied. The rangers nodded and dashed off.

“Come on Let’s go to the base.” Twilight said and she took Sapphire’s hand, “You can come too.”

"O-Okay."

The four of them arrived in the underground base. Twilight went it the monitors and saw what was wrong. There was a hold up at the First National Bank. The goons in the suits, the hostage-- but no signs of any dangerous alien activity. Just as they saw it, it seemed to be nothing more than a simple bank holdup.

But Twilight was rather concerned about the looks of those goons on the roof. “What are you thinking?” asked Spike.

Twilight didn’t answer and began to type on her keyboard, and the scanned showed what was really going on. “Oh, no!” she cried softly.

Even Spike growled angrily at what he saw.

“I’ve got to warn them.” said Celesto, and he ran off to the radio!

At the bank roof, Marla was growing impatient as well as uncomfortable in hiding, “What’s taking those rangers so long?” she wondered.

Before long the people in the crowd began to holler…

“The Power Rangers…!”

“They’re here!”

The rangers came leaping in from out of nowhere and onto the bank roof, and they just stood where they were, not saying a word.

The goons all turned and gazed at them, even turning their hostage towards to face them, and that’s when Sunset whipped out her Star Scepter and fired at the hostage and the goons holding her.

The goons that got shot got up, revealing to be Lingos in disguise, just like all the others.

“We’re not fooled by your little trick!” sneered Sunset.

“Good thing, Twilight warned us in time.” said Buddy.

The hostage woman angrily got up, and her eyes glowed furiously red as she transformed into her true form-- Devila. “You rangers got lucky, but it won’t save you this time…

…GET THEM!!”

All the Lingos threw off their disguises and attacked the rangers.

“Let’s go, guys!” said Sunset.

It was quite brawl as the rangers fought their way through the swarm of Lingos. Then they stood to face Devila, and though she didn’t seem like it, she was rather strong and swift, which she demonstrated by blocking their every attack, and hitting them back with strong punches and kicks. She even head butt them hard in the chests with her horns, and swatted them with her long devil’s tail.

…even knocking Sunset’s scepter out of her hand, sending flying far, far off the roof and way down into the streets. “No!!” she cried.

The scepter soared far, landing far up the street. Devila laughed, “Too bad, Red Ranger. What’cha gonna do now?”

Sunset clenched her fists furiously, but before she could answer, the other rangers were suddenly grabbed by long threads of familiar pink hair.

“Marla!” shouted Sunset.

“Surprise!” Marla teased…

…That’s when Devila extended her long tail and ensnared Sunset, binding her tightly.

The rangers struggled all they could, but they couldn’t’ seem break free from bondage.

“Looks like our little trap worked out after all.” said Marla.

“Our… trap?” sneered Devila “It was MY idea.”

“Yeah, but without my help you wouldn’t have caught all the rangers, would you?”

“Shesh, you two sound like sisters fighting over a doll.” teased Rainbow. That only angered the ladies, and made Marla tighten her grip around the five rangers she had. “Take it easy, we’re not melons!” cried Buddy.

“You think that’s rough?” teased Marla “Just you wait until we take you to Vulcan. I’m sure he’ll enjoy breaking you all limb from limb as we would have.”

“But first we’re going to have a little fun of our own.” hissed Devila “Sorta… soften you up a bit!”

With that, Devila sent a wave of burning energy through her tail, harming Sunset greatly, sparks flew all around as she groaned in pain, while Marla bashed and crashed the other rangers into one another, making more sparks fly, and each slam was more harder than the last.

“We’ve… got to… get out… somehow!” screamed Fluttershy.

“Yes… OW!
But how…?” cried Rhymey.

“Wow, this is so incredible!” cried Marla “Serves you rangers right anyway for causing us so much trouble.”

Devila laughed and continued to burn at Sunset.

Down below the crowds watched in horror, but were ultimately powerless to do anything about it.

Sapphire, Twilight and Spike watched everything on the monitors, and the power levels for the suits were reading critical! “They’re getting their cans kicked.” said Spike “We’ve got to try and help them.”

“I… I don’t know what to do!” cried Twilight.

“Try activating their Able-Boost.” Celesto ordered.

“Right.” Twilight said. “Hang on guys, help is on the way.” She hit the send command, but the computers showed a flashing sign saying “Error: Cannot Transmit”

Celesto grunted in frustration, “The evil energy from the monsters is blocking the signals. The rangers need to break free first, or we can’t help them.”

Twilight and Spike whimpered in fear, and turned back to see the thrashing! Unknown by any of them, Sapphire slipped out of the main room and secretly took on of the jump tubes to the bank. Snowflake followed her as well. When she arrived she saw Sunset’s scepter on the ground. She knew what she had to do. She just hoped it would work.

Grabbing it, she mounted Snowflake and flew up to the roof of the bank.

”Hang on guys, I’m coming.”

The rangers were already beginning to look really beat up, and the all felt very woozy.

“Can’t… defeat… us!” groaned Sunset.

Devila snickered “Oh, really… and she slammed her down hard on the ground, and Marla did the same.

“Okay, that one really hurt!” groaned Rainbow.

Marla laughed, “I think that’s about enough punishment. Time to take you rangers for a ride…”

“…To meet your end!” hissed Devila.

The rangers grunted and growled, but still were hardly able to do a thing to stop them. Suddenly, someone called out to the evil ladies, “Drop those rangers!”

“Huh?”

“What?”

The rangers looked up, and even through their weariness, they could see Sapphire, on Snowflake, holding Sunset’s scepter. Snowflake was hovering over the roof, growling at the ladies.

"Sapphire!" cried Sunset.

"What are you doing here?" Lightning asked.

Marla and Devila looked at each other and burst into laughter. "Look at who's trying to be a hero." Marla taunted. Devila's eyes glowed red. "You've made a big mistake. We'll give you one last chance, leave or else it'll get ugly." Sapphire was starting to sweat nervously, but she kept her brave face. "No! I'll give you one last chance! Let them go!" Sapphire threatened. Snowflake landed on the roof and growled at the ladies.

"Sapphire! Get out of here!" Lightning cried.

"You can't save us! Just go!" Rainbow added.

Sapphire was staring down Marla and Devila, waiting for one of them to make a move. "We gave you a chance, now you'll regret it." Devila snarled. Marla and Devila launched themselves at Sapphire but at the last second, Snowflake blasted the girls with a plasma blast, sending them back a few feet.

Everybody was shocked!

Marla and Devila charged at Sapphire again, but Snowflake rammed the two of them. "Let my friends go, now!" she demanded.

"No! And if you take one more step." Marla added. Marla and Devila placed the rangers over the edge of the roof, if they let go the rangers will fall to their deaths! “They’re done for.” Sapphire grunted in anger and clenched her fists. "I wish I didn't have to do this, but I have no choice."

She dismounted Snowflake, placed the scepter on the ground and concentrated, closing her eyes. She began to glow brightly, surprising the ladies and the rangers, "What's going on with Sapphire?" Lightning asked.

Sapphire suddenly got on all fours and the light vanished and everyone looked shocked.

"Oh..." Sunset said.

"My." Twilight added.

"God." Celesto added.

Sapphire had changed into a jaguar with large eagle like wings! She roared at the ladies, wrapped the scepter in her tail and flew right at them, slashing Marla's hair. The rangers began to fall to the ground until Sapphire caught them all on her back and she flew back up to the roof, snarling at the ladies. "You think you're pretty tricky don't you." Marla snarled. Sapphire snarled and Sunset blasted the duo with her scepter. Knowing they were beaten they decided to retreat. "We'll be back, rangers!" Marla declared and they both vanished. The crowds below cheered loudly in joy.

The rangers de-morphed and Sapphire changed back into her normal self. She looked at her friends and they all had strange expressions on their faces. Sapphire sighed. "Time to come clean."

Back at the base, everyone had the same question. "HOW DID YOU DO THAT?!"

Sapphire sighed. "I guess I have to tell you...

It all began in a hidden lab where I was created.”

“CREATED?!” Everyone exclaimed. Sapphire nodded, “The people who made me gave my the DNA of every single animal that ever lived on the Earth.”

“Every animal?! Even dinosaurs?” Lightning questioned.

“Yes. Even dinosaurs. They put me through tests to see how efficient I was with my powers; from shapeshifting to communicating with animals. They treated me like... well... an animal. They put me in a cage for most of my life, they rarely let me have breaks, they would abuse me whenever I didn’t follow their rules and sometimes they didn’t feed me at all.”

Everyone was no doubt disgusted by this information. “That awful.” Fluttershy said, trying not to burst into tears.

“Then one day when I was ten years old, one of the scientists broke me out of the lab and I escaped, met Snowflake and eventually I found the alley and his there with Snowflake, too afriad to show myself until I became eighteen and Mr. Grandruler and his wife found me. And I guess you all know the rest.” The rangers and the Grandrulers’ were amazed and shocked at Sapphire’s story. “So you’ve been living in the streets for eight years!” Rainbow exclaimed with concern, “How come we never noticed you?”

“I always came out at night to avoid people. And with Snowflake's cloaking ability, she can stay hidden in the darkness, so no one would notice her."

"Cloaking ability?" Celesto echoed.

"Snowflake can cloak herself in her plasma blasts." Sapphire explained.

“So that explains why you were so afraid of us." Celestia said.

Sapphire nodded, “I didn’t have much social interaction in isolation.” The rangers and Grandrulers’ felt pity for Sapphire.

“Well that changes today.” Rainbow said. “From now on, you’ll be with us. We’ll teach you everything you need to know about being a normal teenager.”

“Normal teenagers don’t have magic or are Power Rangers.” Sunset pointed out, giving Rainbow a look of disdain. Rainbow shrugged, “Whatever.” Sunset rolled her eyes and looked back at Sapphire. “Like we said, we’ll help you.” Sapphire smiled and hugged Sunset. “Thank you.”

At the Prison Tower, the Marla and Devila reported to Vulcan and the boys. "So there's a new girl with extraordinary powers, huh?"

"Yes Master."

"Well then, how about we give this girl a test of our own." Vulcan chuckled evilly and the minions chuckled along with him.
