In just a few short years, what was once a quiet, peaceful planet has become a battleground for all forms of life, whether it be human, alien, demon, or otherwise. Fortunately, all of the immediate threats were handled by groups of Rangers around the world, but the US government felt uneasy with these groups of warriors with enough power to conquer the planet, so they sought to create their own Rangers and succeeded with SPD. The SPD Rangers successfully dispatched numerous enemies to both their country and the planet, keeping the world safe. Unfortunately, with their victories came tragic losses along with a controversy that nearly shook the Earth to its core and delivered a black eye to the government in the process. Realizing that there were still threats to the planet, the government re-tooled a project originally designed to function alongside SPD so that it can function on its own, minus the emotional factors that nearly doomed the planet with the built in ability to wash their hands of the situation should there be failure or if the same emotional factors hinder this project as it did the last.
Shortly after the final battle against Prometheus and his forces, the government launched project Nitro Blaze, the government's second Ranger program. Unlike project SPD, the government has chosen to recruit five highly skilled criminals to wield these powers to complete missions that are deemed too dark for SPD or need to be done quietly with the incentive of shaving years off of their sentences and the added benefit of disavowing this group should they fail their mission. This merry band of criminals will have to gel quickly as they will be matched up against villains from across this and other planets and for their sakes, these are missions that this new team of criminal Rangers cannot afford to lose.

Okay guys, here's the next game in the Neo Silver timeline. We're staying away from the multiverse and teams of returning rangers for this one and focusing on a new crew, although some time travel shenanigans will be involved. I'm hoping to get this one up quickly, so if anyone has any questions, please review the rules and FAQs down below and if that doesn't answer your question, please let me know.
Rules
*No Original Rangers or Ranger-like allies. Please stick to the designated open role(s)
*Not first come, first serve. Best bio gets in.
*This is a marathon, not a sprint. If for whatever reason, you have to step away for a few days, please let me know so I can make sure that the game keeps moving.
*PLEASE remember that this is a game and not to take things that are said here personally.
*Once selected, please start working on your focus episode info. (Core five only)
*Please note that for the weapons, they will have no other abilities outside of the ones presented in the shows.
*Any romantic subplots are to be ran by me and more importantly, by the other person before being implemented into the story.
*No, you cannot bring in a character from a different timeline BUT, I am okay with a different version of that character for this timeline.
*All other RP rules apply...oh and have fun. If there are any other questions please direct them here and then to the DT once the game starts.
Game FAQs
*This game is part of a universe that does not include any of the Ranger teams/characters that you have seen on TV/movies.
*You may apply for a max of 2 Rangers.
*This game will reference previous games, so while it is not mandatory to read through the old games, it is encouraged when possible. (Mainly SPD Galaxy Wars)
*If we discuss something pertaining to the game and the answer is no, don't do it.
*Remember, your character is a criminal and keep in mind that your crimes should be serious enough to warrant being arrested by the CIA, but we are NOT including any crimes dealing with anything sexually, religiously, or racially charged.
*While your character cannot be a former Ranger, they can have ties to former/current Rangers in this timeline such as being a friend/family member.
*If your character has ties to another person's OC in any capacity, you must gain the go ahead from that person to proceed.
*I may ask you to switch to another color as I feel your character may be better suited in another role. You absolutely have the right to decline but keep in mind that if you're going for the same role as someone else and you decline, it may affect your chance to get selected all together.

Several months have passed since the defeat of Prometheus at the hands of SPD. After the defeat, the Rangers all went their separate ways with Ken, Flynn, and Jag all resuming normal lives while Joey was away on what everyone else thought to be CIA business but the truth was much more sinister and heartbreaking. Brooklyn and Amy remained in active duty with the CIA with the former being elevated to Commander and Amy maintaining her technical duties. They have tried to aid neighboring Ranger teams in their fight against evil, but the constraints placed by their government has made their aid extremely limited in both quantity and frequency. The fight against DRAGO has come to a standstill as they have not encountered a single DRAGO operative since the battle against Prometheus which left many feeling uneasy.
Brooklyn was sitting in what used to be Storm's office, reviewing paperwork. He heard his door open and didn't bother looking up.
"What have you got for me, Amy?" He asked, knowing she was the only person ballsy enough to enter his office without asking.
"Sources have confirmed the new terrorist group in Japan." Amy said as she sat. "They call themselves the Akatsuki. Their rap sheet is long and the death count is longer. We received word that one of their Rangers is in a coma and it's 50/50 on whether or not she pulls through."
"Shit." Brooklyn laid both hands on the table, letting out a deep sigh.
"This would be an ideal time to call the team in."
"Yes, but no. You know why."
"It's still bullshit. Do these stuffy ass suits not realize that if one of these big bads succeed with whatever they wanna do, it's only a matter of time before they come knocking at our door."
"You're not wrong." Brooklyn leaned back in his chair "But sending the team to Japan is risky. If something goes wrong, we're risking an international incident."
"And the end of the world if we keep standing by." Amy argued.
"I have a solution, but you're not gonna like it."
Amy knew where this was going and shook her head. "Oh no! We've been through this. I'm not trusting my tech in the hands of crooks!"
"It's the only move we've got. If you want to be able to spread your wings, this is the play."
"Well what about Director Finley? You know his ass is obsessed with being on the straight and narrow."
"Let me worry about that."
****
The newly finished Synchro City Penitentiary was home to a variety of unsavory criminals, many of which with an axe to grind. One notable prisoner was Paul Cross, former special ops and sometimes friend to Brooklyn, Amy, and Joey. After being caught again, he was sent to this jail instead of being housed in Delta Command as there was no Storm to work things behind the scenes.
The former operator sat on the benches outside in the yard, watching some inmates play basketball while he ate a bag of Zapp's potato chips.
"At least they got the brand right this time."

Wayne sat in a isolated corner he seemed to be tapping buttons on his wrist, it was smart watch like device, he had moved assets around having a regular scheduled money on his books and paid the occasional gaurd or outsider for what anyone else would name useless junk. But with it he was able to build the watch. "A5... Are you there..." he spoke quietly into the watch before a digital circle popped up as Soundwaves were formed and a female voice was heard.
"WAYNE!" She shouted as Wayne smacked the watch.
"Keep it down... This was the best I could do with what I was limited to..." The tech Wizard stated as A5 kept a hushed tone.
"Who would have thought Wayne Turner would get caught?" A5 shook her virtual body as a face began to form.
"They tracked my affairs back to me somehow, they had a good team or something. Give me a couple months... I'll be out of here..."

Corrie had spent the last few ours doing most of her daily routine of pacing her cell. She had spent so many days cussing herself over and over again for getting herself caught. "God how could you be so stupid Corrie." She spoke to herself aloud, her head shaking. She was done for, this was going to be how she goes out. In prison.

Lenny Powers was seen in the jail cell, silent over the ordeal. When he was brought in, he was silent and refused to respond to any officers, especially Brooklyn whom he flipped him off when being hauled off. As he sat in his cell, he saw some inmates looking at him. "The fuck y'all starin' at!?" he barked out.

Sitting in her cell, Kestra Fenix chuckled as she looked at the news. "Good. Son of a bitch got what he deserved," she said. After bringing down a multinational company that was intending to start a war, the young woman was "retrieved" by Brooklyn and his agents. She crumbled the paper up and tossed it away, stretching as she got up and paced around. "C'mon, man. Let me out in the yard. I didn't break anyone's hands this week!"

Still in his office, Brooklyn was now engaged in a heavy conversation with Director Finley who was on screen and didn't look pleased. "Director, this can work. Threats are increasing and we don't have the firepower to handle them all without additional aid. If you're so against enlisting heroes outside of the government, why not this?" "Commander Turner, I'm not sure you comprehend what you're asking. If anything goes wrong, we could have a global crisis on our hands." "I know this is high risk, but it's the only play we have. Maybe if this was in play sooner, Storm would still be alive." Brooklyn responded. He knew that Storm was a sensitive subject especially given the fact that Finley and Storm were friends in the same vein that he and Joey are and came up the ranks together. Ever since Storm's death, Finley has been motivated to bring down those responsible and while Brooklyn felt dirty playing the Storm card, he would whatever he had to do to protect the city and by extension, the planet. Director Finley took a sip of his whiskey before putting the glass down. "Do you have protections in place?" "She's got that covered." Brooklyn motioned to Amy, ceding the floor to her to explain the technical aspect of this operation. **** While Paul was watching the inmates play, one of the security guards walked up to him with his menacing appearance. "You shouldn't have that in the yard." The guard said, talking about the chips. "It's just a snack, big man. I'll be done soon." "No!" The guard snatched the bag, keeping his hand on his taser which was attached to his hip. "Now get out of here before I drag your ass to isolation." "Okay okay! Ol' uptight lookin' ass." Paul got up from the benches and took a walk, smirking as he left. The guard walked in the other direction, looking in the "bag of chips", finding cash. The exchange in the yard was nothing more than stunt to lessen suspicion with those not in the know. As Paul continued to walk, he heard talking that didn't sound like another inmate, he glanced in that direction to find Wayne Turner talking to someone. "Heh. The kid's sloppy." Paul walked away, opting not to bring attention to the younger criminal or rat him out. He walked past the cells of some inmates, stopping in front of Kestra's. "What's good, Kes? You look extra violent today."

"Have you made any friends?" A5 whispered to Wayne.
"A5... you are programming... you don't really care about my Social Ventures." Wayne rolled his eyes as he was typing on his watch.
"Sooo... you programed me to mimic inquisitive social wonderings..." A5 replied.
"..."
"..."
"So Any-"
"NO." Wayne responded.
"Bummer." A5 sighed
"Anyways... I have to source how my escape will play out. I could hire a Galactice Terrorist to upset the balance to give me an opening to run." Wayne stated
A5 blinked "I feel there are steps to take before that one..."
Wayne tapped his chin as he was brainstorming escapes.

Some of the men began to yell at Lenny and the drug dealer jumped up, walking to the doors of the cell. "What the fuck you mean what are we starin' at? You in here like everyone else!" one inmate called out.
"Oh, you wanna fight, bitch? Then come at me then!" Lenny shouted back and soon both he and the inmates began to have a shouting match.

"What's good, Kes? You look extra violent today."
Kestra looked over, seeing Paul. "Why don't you come on in here and find out, Pauly? See how talkative you can be with a broken jaw," she said with a smirk, cracking her knuckles. "Or you a chicken?"

"Come on now, Baby. You know I'm a gentleman. Trying to get me in that cell.. at least buy me dinner first." Paul smirked, getting a kick out of picking at Kestra.

Wayne turned around hearing the commotion that Lenny was creating and sighed. "Neanderthals...." he said a little too loudly as he was annoyed by the loud noises.

"Do somethin' then, motherfucka! If you so damn tough!" Lenny shouted out, pulling his jacket off, ready to fight the inmates despite being behind metal bars. The inmates kept cursing at him but Lenny refused to back down.

"The mud from the yard or the slop off the kitchen floor? That's the best I got right now," Kestra said with a smirk. "Or a double knuckle sandwhich?"

"That's it? I know my standards are low, but geeze!" Paul chuckled. "I can't even get a bag of chips or a cup of noodles?" He shrugged, faking as if his feelings were hurt.
