Scene: First Reunification of the Fracture Protocol Rangers
Location: Earth-137, 3:13 AM – Sky split in half
Kael jolted awake.
The stars were… wrong.
They were pulsing, like heartbeats. One by one, constellations winked out—not falling, but blinking from memory.
He stumbled out of his cabin, hand still instinctively reaching for a morpher that no longer existed. The cliffside he'd called home for a year was now cracking—like glass.
Then came the voice.
Static and whispers layered like oil:
"Kael… remember me?"
"I was the timeline that never got to be yours."
From the fractured sky, Null Kael descended.
Same body. Same posture.
But soulless eyes, and a gaping wound of light where his emblem once was.
Kael braced, fists up. "What… the hell are you?"
N-Kael tilted his head. "You. Without the delusion of redemption."
Location: Earth-913, A New Grid Research Lab
Mira was running numbers.
Something wasn't aligning. Entire branches of the Multiversal Archive had gone dark. Reports from restored realities were flickering—like they'd never been written.
Her console chirped. Then sizzled.
The logo of the new Grid Network glitched—morphing into a shattered morphing coin.
"Error: Subject 'Cipher' detected."
She froze.
And then she whispered, "No… not again…"
Location: Earth-XS9 – The Laughing Realm (Ayla's Home)
Ayla dodged explosions of custard and glitter as a birthday prank went sideways.
But the laughter stopped when everyone in the world forgot her name.
She called her mom. Her teammates. Her world.
They answered with confusion.
Ayla blinked.
"…who are you?" they asked. "…Do you go to this school?"
And then the clouds above split, revealing five figures in blank suits, dripping static.
Null Rangers.
"Don't worry," one whispered. "We'll erase you gently."
Location: Realm of Echoes
Rin sat cross-legged, meditating.
But the wind howled.
His flowers died in an instant. The sky turned grey. The stone trees cracked.
And he felt it.
A version of himself—forgotten, erased—resurrected in hatred.
He stood and drew his blade.
"It begins again."
Location: Phantom Atlas – Now a Museum in Orbit
Alarms screamed.
A golden beam of light exploded across the command deck.
Zara Vey—alive but aged—limped forward, grasping an ancient console.
The computer said only two words:
"FRACTURE DETECTED."
Moments later, across dimensions…
Kael, Mira, Ayla, Thorne, and Rin were ripped from their worlds mid-step, mid-sentence, mid-thought—teleported into the new Phantom Atlas floating in Gridspace.
No introductions. No time.
Just a screen showing Cipher's face.
Pixelated. Cracked.
Smiling.
"Hello again, Rangers.
Let's see if you can fix a universe…
…that doesn't want to be saved."
⚔️ Null Ranger Suit Descriptions (Text-Only)
These Rangers are not bound by color—but by absence. Their suits appear as glitching matte-black forms, devoid of color or symbols, marked by thin silver or white data-like cracks.
Cipher (Leader)
Full matte-black armor with silver filament veins across his chest.
Helmet has a shattered X-shaped visor.
Speaks with multi-layered, reversed echo.
Moves like time itself bends around him.
Null Kael (N-Kael)
Crimson cracks glowing faintly in his obsidian armor.
Wields a jagged anti-saber made of raw Morph-static.
Faceplate has a broken V carved diagonally.
Echoes Kael's fighting style, but twice as ruthless.
Noxis (White Void Ranger)
Pure white, almost featureless armor with faint smoke trails.
No mouth on helmet, eyes glow like static.
Speaks in reversed whispers.
Appears to Rin as something terrifyingly familiar.
The Echo (Null Ayla)
Suited in distorted yellow-gray with a jagged, smiling mouth carved into her helmet.
Laughs like static warps.
Fights with unpredictability and chaos, like corrupted joy.
Dreadthorn (Null Thorne)
Wears heavy black armor with burning red vents.
A brute force berserker, created from Thorne's darkest thoughts.
Believes emotion is weakness, mercy is failure.
Null Mira
Sleek armor, laced with broken tech tubes.
Helmet glows with shifting data symbols.
Seeks to correct the Grid by erasing all anomalies—living and dead.
