Inspired by similar stories only with Marinette getting a different Miraculous instead of becoming a Ranger.

It had been four months since Marinette had put the Ladybug Miraculous into Alya's bag and she thought she had made the right choice. Well she did, anyone else would have thought she made the wrong one.

Even after Alya had managed to purify the Akuma in Stoneheart; the reports of her and Cat noir against the Akuma villains showed her not too perceptive about where the Akuma would be. She ended up making a lot of errors and people were wondering even if she didn't catch the Akuma the first time; the original Ladybug would have done a better job.

She could be seen quarrelling with Cat Noir quite often and Marinette gulped at these reports. With her Lucky Charm; she was seemed disregarding anything that was not a weapon. People saw her as a terrible replacement and as Cat Noir's sidekick. She stayed closed friends with Alya, even comforting her that Ladybug would get better whenever she would look at the comments on her Ladyblog.

She wished she could tell Alya the truth about knowing her secret identity but kept quiet about it; she focused on spending time with her friends and thinking she was not cut out to be a superhero.

She tried to stay out of Akuma situations but it was not easy and she did have to accept whatever excuse Alya gave to her as to why she had to bail or where she was.

Lately seen around Paris was what seemed to be a blue monkey in winged golden armor; a weird Akuma to say the least. Ladybug and Cat Noir were seen trying to catch it but he seemed to be ignoring them and trying to look for something.

At school they were doing large group projects in class and Marinete was paired with Rose, Sabrina, Max and Kim. They were at a park when they saw five different colored beams of light. They ended up going towards them and caught them in their hands disappearing as they did so.

They were astonished to find themselves in what seemed to be a spaceship. Then there was a robot to which Max was in awe off and... A giant head in a tube?

"Little young to be Power Rangers but who am I question the Morphing Grid? If the Grid chose these five to be Power Rangers then they must be the Power Rangers." The head on the wall told the astonished teens.

He explained he was Zordon keeper of the Power Coins that there in their hands now and that they were chosen to be warriors called Power Rangers. Apparently the armored monkey was called Goldar and he was a servant of an alien witch called Rita Repulsa who was looking to find something called the Zeo Crystal to take over the Universe.

Kim was the have the power of the Black Mastodon

Rose was to have the power of the Pink Pterodactyl

Max was to have the power of the Blue Triceratops

Sabrina was to have the power of the Yellow Sabretooth Tiger

Marinette was to lead the team with the power of the Red Tyrannosaurus

"Wait Marinette gets the T-Rex, those are much cooler than a mammoth or something. Can I switch?" Kim asked but Zordon shook his head to Kim's disappointment.

"Alien robot technology, I must be allowed to study it!" Max muttered.

"Oh I love Pink; I would love to see what kind of powers I can get!" Rose gushed excited about all this.

"Wait, are we going to be superheroes? Like ladybug and Cat Noir, Chloe and I play heroes all the time so this is going to be so exciting..." Sabrina muttered with excitement.

Marinette stared in open mouth in shock and horror, no this could not be happening. She was not meant to be a superhero, that's why she gave the Ladybug Miraculous to Alya. She could not deal with this again!

Marinette just fainted, "So, this girl is going to lead the team... aye-aye-aye-aye!" Alpha 5 muttered in his robotic voice.

3 days later Ladybug and Cat Noir was seen trying to fight Goldar who kept ignoring them as a waste of his time. The five of them were called to the Command Centre as it was called to begin fighting training with Alpha 5. Zordon told them of 3 rules: they were not allowed to use their powers for personal gain, not to escalate a battle unless they were forced to and to keep their identity secret.

Marinette along with school didn't have much time to jsut hang out with Alya but she seemed to be busy with her project as well. Plus trying to think of a strategy for Goldar. If made Marinette guilty she could not help more than just assure her the Superheroes would save the day.

She was able to keep with the new combat training well but struggled trying to be a leader to her team. Sabrina seemed to be lost without Chloe to help guide her, Kim was being a goof off, Max kept asking Alpha 5 questions about him and Rose was wondering when she would get her own suit.

She finally lost it:

"Enough everyone!" Marinette shouted facing everyone furiously in the Centre taking them by shock at the uncharacteristic outburst by the usually kind and shy girl.

"Kim, Max and Rose can you please focus on this and please not treat this as a game. Sabrina; you don't need Chloe to guide you and boss you about all of the time. I don't think I should be here; let alone being the leader but if I am going to be a leader then I am now going to start acting like one!" Marinette told them before calming down a bit.

"I know this is a new situation but remember; we are expecting to fight Goldar who treats Paris' own defenders as jokes so if we keep acting like this how are we supposed to fare any better? Remember he is only even a lackey of someone more powerful and threatening; if we have any hope of fighting Goldar before he finds the Zeo Crystal, then we should start taking this seriously!" Marinette told them with a firm tone and they looked at her.

Then they nodded and began clapping for Marinette, Alpha joined in and Zordon was smiling at them. Soon enough they were taking the training a bit more seriously and Marinette began having them doing teamwork exercises. Soon came the final day and Marinette got in first.

She was in for a surprise.

"We have been going over footage of this Ladybug and Cat Noir; their powers seemed to be in sync and yet their owners are not; I can't help but find the previous Ladybug to be familiar." Alpha stated to Marinette and she looked down.

"...That was me; I messed up and didn't think I was cut out for it and I gave the powers to someone who I thought was more cut out for it." Marinete admitted with a sigh, deciding not to bother denying it.

"Yet you have shown the leadership quality to get the Rangers into shape and I have seen you go about your life Marinette; always the first one to want to help others. It seemed that you were always meant to be a Superhero and this second chance is merely fate trying to correct the previous error." Zordon stated and Marinette was still a bit doubtful but she decided she would put her doubts aside for her team and this mission.

She heard coughing and then looked behind her to notice her team; she gulped and then heard their words:

"Statistically I think you would have made an excellent Ladybug if you continued Marinette."

"You were Ladybug Marinette? Why would you give that up? You would be amazing!"

"You couldn't have been worse than the one we have now?"

"We follow you now Marinette!"

Marinete was surprised at their support and then hand them put their hands together and lift them up in the air. Zordon told them that Goldar was out again, "Good luck Marinette, may the Power Protect You and your Rangers!" Zordon told them with a big smile.

Marinette had them lift up their Power Coins and uttered:

"It's Morphing Time!"

Goldar was seen flying outside the streets of Paris only to feel his wings being hit at by arrows. Goldar then landed and then was surprised to see the five of them in suits of their respective color; with white belts, boots, gloves and a white pattern and helmets that matched their respective animals.

Rose had been firing at him with her bow, Max had his Power Daggers ready , Kim with his Power Axe, Sabrina with her Power Sais and Marinette with her Power Sword. "So Zordon's little squad of heroes have arrived at last, took you all long enough!" Goldar snarled as he charged with his sword.

Marinete gave orders to her team as they charged in to fight. Ladybug and Cat Noir was watching from a distance amazed at the five seeming new heroes that were fighting the monster they had been tracking for some time.

Ladybug was suspicious but Cat Noir could not help but find the Red Ranger's way of relaying orders to be familiar.

After some time Kim had managed to through the wings of Goldar with Max and Sabrina finished off the rest of the wings with their weapons. With her bow Rose had managed to pierce a hole through the armor with Marinette giving the final strike by stabbing him in the torso with her sword.

"I am but the first; Rita will send more and the Zeo Crystal will be herself..." Goldar warned her as he took his final breath. He exploded into nothingness and civilians began looking to the 5 Rangers and began clapping for them.

Nadja Chamack went up to them and asked who they were and what was with the Akuma. "Not an Akuma but a monster from outer space; Hawk Moth is not the only bad guy seek threaten Paris and the Earth. Don't worry because neither he nor Rita Repulsa will get this planet now that the Power Rangers are here!" Marinette told Nadja as Nadja wanted to ask more questions.

Ladybug and Cat Noir came forward with Ladybug demanding answers and Cat noir looking at Marinette. "Cat Noir..." she muttered as they disappeared back to the Command Centre in flashes of light.

There were mutterings as to where they went but Cat Noir muttered "My lady?"
