are you? I haven't spoken to you in so long!"

^Things've been a bit crazy in Geneva, but when I saw that Daily Bugle article, I had to contact you!^

"You saw the article?" she asked in surprise.

^Yeah. One of the sessions we had today dealt with the fact that a possible invasion of Earth by aliens is one impetus for world peace. You know, to create a united front against a global threat? And to show the possibility of aliens attacking Earth, the professor showed us the article about the Purple Ranger saving that doctor from aliens. What's happened to you?^

"I hope you don't have anything immediate to do," said Alexis, lying down on her bed, "because this is one heck of a long story!"

The Terran Rangers - The Preliminaries Volume 5:

Manipulation

Excerpt from The Terran Rangers/Spectrum Force/Sailor Moon - The Preliminaries Volume 5: Manipulation

There are many parallel universes in existence. In fact, there are infinite parallel universes. For the most part, though, they are completely separate from one another. Each universe thinks it is the only universe in existence. The vast majority of beings do not know of the other universes, and frankly do not care. That is the way it should be, for parallel universes represent all the possibilities, and they should remain separate. Roma was the Guardian of the Multiverse, and it was her responsibility to make sure that the infinite universes never clash, for it could mean the utter destruction of reality. Roma lived on Otherworld, a pocket dimension floating between universes, where the laws of space and time carried no weight. Little did she know that there existed another being on the other side of Otherworld, secretly living inside a remarkable onyx castle floating in space. The only resident in this majestic and mysterious palace was Solar, a mighty creature with access to any world in the Multiverse, and an agenda that directly opposed Roma's. Solar sat alone on his throne, resting his chin on his hands. To anyone who looked at him, he appeared to be surprisingly human, with bright aqua colored eyes, sandy blonde hair, tan skin, and a medium build. The only thing that gave him away was his form-fitting armor --a white chestplate with a golden badge over his heart and concentric blue circles emanating from the round badge. His sleeves and pants were deep red, and he wore a blue belt with a golden buckle. But no matter how human he appeared, he indeed was not human. In fact, he was nothing like any of the evil beings that populate the Multiverse. Solar didn't seek selfish gain, such as riches or power. Rather, he was pure, cold, and calculating evil, and his only desire was to destroy the Multiverse, simply because it was populated by lesser beings. Solar appeared to be in a trance, not moving even slightly for a great deal of time. His eyes then thrust open, and a chilled grin formed on his handsome face.

"I have it!" he declared, his deep, rumbling voice nearly shaking the whole room, "I have figured out how I shall destroy the Multiverse. It is so simple!"

Solar rose from his throne and strode over to a large crystal ball, reflecting the colored streaks of light that decorated the black sky of Otherworld. He stroked the ball gently, and three images appeared in sequence, one of the six spandex clad Power Rangers, one of the colorful Spectrum Force, and one of the high-heeled Sailor Scouts and their ally, Tuxedo Mask. Solar's eyes twinkled gold as he studied the images of the teenagers.

"They are so young," he mused, "and yet so powerful. They may very well be the most powerful teams of super heroes in the Multiverse. Each team protects Earth from unbeatable odds, and yet always manages to succeed. If I plan to destroy the Multiverse, I must start by ridding myself of its greatest defenders."

Solar walked up the stairs and emerged on the roof of his mighty palace. He stood outside, the chill winds of Otherworld rustling his sandy hair. He gazed towards a shimmer of pearly white light in the distance.

"I must be cautious," he mused aloud, his face curling into a frown as he gazed at the light, "If I simply attack the children myself, I shall no doubt alert Roma of my plans, and I am not yet powerful enough to challenge her on my own. I must be subtle, and eliminate my enemies with as little interference as possible. I shall start with the most powerful fighters on each team, and once they are gone, the remaining ones shall be so distraught that they will fall to their typical enemies. A brilliant plan, and hopefully, Roma will not notice that I have shanghaied some of her little heroes."

Meeting the six teenagers that were the Power Rangers, she was accepted into their group and they were all later surprised when she became the Purple Power Ranger, inheriting her powers from an ancestor from long ago.

Peter Parker (Spiderman)

Peter Parker was once a social outcast, very interested in science. While attending an exhibit on a new type of science, Neogenics, a spider crawls down into the blast from the ray, and becomes mutated. It then bites Peter. After a horrible hallucination, Peter realizes his great power, and becomes Spider-Man. He then shows off his amazing powers on TV shows and such. After failing to stop a robber at the box office, that same robber murders Peter's Uncle Ben. From that day on, Peter learned to use his powers to help others, because of the saying told to him by Uncle Ben, "With great power, comes great responsibility."

At one point, Spider-Man gained a new alien costume, which gave him the power to mimic the identity of anyone he chose, superior strength, and more. He gained this alien costume while rescuing John Jameson from his crashed space shuttle, and the symbiote was attached to it. Though the costume was really an alien symbiote, which corrupted him into almost murdering the Rhino. He gets rid of the symbiote by using the sound of a giant ringing bell, as the symbiotes only weakness is sound waves.

Peter Parker has had a terrible love-life. He was first interested in Felicia Hardy, who didn't share the same feelings as he did. Once she grew to enjoy Peter, they started a relationship, which was destroyed once Mary Jane came into Peter's life. Their relationship ended abruptly when Peter (Spider-Man) fails to stop the Green Goblin from transporting Mary Jane to an unknown dimension. She comes home soon, and she and Peter get married, though it is soon discovered that she is merely an unstable clone of the real Mary Jane.
