Alrighty! This is my first of 12 "episodes" for the season 1 continuation of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I'm writing a pseudo parody of the classic series but I'm writing real morals, keeping mostly the same plots and story archs and keeping all the charm about the old series and its characters relatively unscathed (Chances are, I will also go past season 1 too). I have only two main differences from the original main story.
1. A slightly more adult theme:
Don't get me wrong, their won't be any swearing or nudity or any of that tacky stuff, but I will write something that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Most of my stories will be written in the style and formula of the original show, so it will feel as if you're watching an episode of MMPR. Except like many popular kids shows that are also liked by teens and adults, there will be lines and dialogue as well as innuendo that older fans will love. Which also leads me to number 2...
2. A NEW ranger.
Yep, I've added a 7th ranger. Seeing as the original team lacked Hispanic representation, I've added just that with my new 'brown' power ranger. This one will be a little unusual, as he won't be introduced as a new character, but treated as if he's always been there. He will be treated like the rarely used outsider (think Tommy, but in a bad way) he's crude, makes snide remarks and treats everything with universal indifference. I know, this might be strange to just act as if he's always been there, in fact some of my readers have already asked for further elaboration on his back story, well I've done just that below, with the Robbie episode guide
The Robbie Retcon
1. Day of the Dumpster: Hanging out by himself in a table by the corner, he is unfamilar with the rest of the group and is annoyed by them. He gets caught up in the Earth quake though and is sent to the command center. He is initially sceptical, but notes that a giant head did just magically transport them all to the middle of the desert. He is given the power of the Stegosaurus. The StegaZord does not appear in battle though as he is kept busy fighting off putties.
2. High Five: He mocks Trini for such a ridiculous fear when just last week she piloted a massive robot. Doesn't do much else.
3. Teamwork: Is essentially forced to help the girls petition against a big industrial company when everyone else found an excuse to not join. Complains the whole time.
4. A Pressing Engagement: StegaZord debuts along with rangers power crystals.
5. Different Drum: Is unaware that Kimberly’s friend is deaf and tries to hit on her, becoming angry when she ignores his advances.
6. Food Fight: Robbie runs a Caribbean food stand, filled with spicy foods. It's that very stand that the Pudgy Pig ignored that lead to its demise.
7. Big Sister: After the little girl Maria is mean to him, he berates her and makes fun of her unibrow.
8. Eye Guy: In detention/ not seen
9. For Whom the Bell Trolls: Joins other rangers in battle.
10. Happy Birthday Zack (Robbie): He replaces Zack in this plot. It’s his birthday and while he doesn’t expect much (Never has gotten a true birthday) he at least expected the others to acknowledge it. When they refused to even speak to him, became upset and left school to ponder his place in the group. That’s when he is attacked by the Knasty Knight. Is left speechless by the end when he realizes they had planned a surprise party.
11. No Clowning Around: Joins others in the carnival, despite an irrational fear of clowns. Stays to himself, but shouts at Trini when she loses her cousin Silvia gets kidnapped by one of them, assuming the clown has already had its way with her and left her face down in a ditch. The others wonder what on Earth happened in his childhood.
