Lauren is revealed to be the true head of the Shiba Family when she arrives on the scene to take over for an injured Jayden. After her Father sealed Master Xandred temporarily and died, Ji knew the heir to the Shiba family had to be hidden away where she would practice and master the sealing symbol in order to properly seal Master Xandred once and for all! In her place, her younger brother Jayden would play the role of the Red Ranger so that the Nighlok would never know there was another heir! Lauren has spent her entire life training to take over the role of Red Ranger and has been practicing the Sealing Power her entire life.
