Episode 1
Reunion
It was a sunny day at the Thunder Academy and Hunter was walking through the courtyard, observing the students that were training. He has been the head teacher of the Thunder Ninja Academy for the last few months or so. With Lothor gone, he has been focusing his time to help students out. The academy is far away from Blue Bay Harbor so Hunter rarely visited his friends anymore. He would sometime stop and think about all the good times they had. Dustin, Shane and Tori. They were all great friends. He even missed working at Storm Chargers but he had duties to full fill and with Blake gone, touring the country for Factory Blue, the students have been looking up to him. Hunter continued to walk in till a student walked up to him.
"This came for you." The student spoke, holding out a letter. Hunter extended his hand and took the paper. He nodded and the student walked off. He ripped open the top part and read the letter carefully
Dear Bro,
Its been a while since I last wrote. Who would have thought that touring with Factory Blue would take so much dedication. I hope the academy is running smoothly and the kids are all listening to you. I received a letter from Tori. She told me to pass her regards to you. They all miss you, ya know. Why don't you take a break and visit them? I do the same but I'm across the country, you know how it is. Well I have to wrap this up, I have a race in like 10 minutes. Hope to hear from you.
Blake.
Hunter cracked a smile and folded the paper and stuck it in his pocket. He stared out into the pond that was stationed in the middle of the courtyard. He's right. I should visit them." He spoke to himself, "It's been far to long, but I can't. Not now. Not for a while." He frowned. He turned and headed back down the path and entered the academy. He walked down the long wooden hall all the way to the end and turned the corner to a room that station a desk and a chair. In the corner was a bed and a huge window, with a view of a waterfall. The waterfall that flows to the pond he was just at. He sat down at his desk and spun around on the chair. The chair slowly stopped in front of his desk. Hunter looked down and noticed the picture he had on it. The picture was of him and the gang at Ninja Ops, all posing for the camera. It was two days after their graduation that it was taken, right before Blake left. Hunter couldn't help but chuckle, remembering how Dustin dropped the camera on the first attempt to take the picture, then held it upside the second. Finally, Cam just used an automated camera to do it for him. At that point he started to laugh out loud. He couldn't take it anymore. He had to see everyone. Everything just reminded him of them or the city.
"Leanne!" He screamed out loud. The beautiful brown hair girl slowly walked in.
"You called?" She asked. Hunter started recall the time when he ran into her the first day as the Head Teacher. He asked her, or more like begged her to stay and be a teacher. She was a good friend of his and she couldn't say no.
He walked over to her and grabbed her hands and held it, "I'm leaving you in charge of the academy while I'm away." He told her. She was a bit confused, she stared in to his eyes
She started to speak, "What do you mean?"
He let go and headed for the door, but he turned around and replied, "I'm going on a little vacation for a while"
"Where to?" She asked.
Hunter smiled, "Back home." He responded, and bolted out the door. He ran through the halls and out the door and back through the courtyard. He exits the academy portal and found himself in the woods. He walked down the path to the streets where his trusty crimson beat up car was parked. He hopped in and started the engine and sped off down the road towards Blue Bay Harbor. A few hours passed, and he entered the familiar city. Nothing has changed for the last few months and he felt good coming back. He started to drive towards the Wind Academy. He parked his car in front of the woods and looked around. No one was in sight, so he headed in. He followed a trail that lead to the waterfall. He entered in and appear in the Wind Academy's courtyard. Ninja students where everywhere, training hard. Hunter walked forward, everyone stopped and turned to him. He kept on walking, ignoring all the stared faces. He made quite a name for himself at this academy and everyone had such high respect for him and the other rangers for risking their lives to save them from Lothor. This was Hunter's first time in a long time being back here and everyone was a little surprised by his sudden appearance. Hunter made his way to the latch, that lead down the Ninja Ops. He opened it up and quickly walked down the stairs where he found Cam at his terminal typing things up. Hunter snuck behind him and leaned over his shoulder, to watch what he was doing.
"Whatcha doing?" Hunter spoke up.
Cam shook his head, "Just testing out the-" He started to say before he realized who it was. He quickly turned the chair around, "Hunter!?" Hunter chuckled as he stood up, "What are you doing here!?" He gave him a high five.
"It's been far to long." Hunter replied.
Cam nodded, "Indeed it has. How's the academy? Do the rest know you're here? How long you staying?" He was throwing millions of questions out. Hunter gave a light laugh.
"Whoa man, slow down. One at a time." Hunter replied, "I left Leann in charge. I'm thinking of taking a vacation from the whole head master thing. Maybe just till the end of summer." He explained.
Cam smirk, "Head Masters don't take vacation." He told him.
Hunter shrugged, "Now they do." He then looked around the room, "Where are the others?" He asked.
Cam sat down in his chair, "Storm Chargers. Dustin's working. Tori and Shane are probably just pestering him." He informed him.
"I'd like to find them. Wanna come?" He looked down Cam.
He nodded his head in dismay, "Can't. Got stuff to do here, but we should catch up sometime." Hunter nodded in agreement. He started to walk to the stairs as he saw Sensei come down.
Hunter bowed to him, "Sensei." He spoke.
Sensei smiled, signaling him to stand back up, "It has been a long time Hunter."
"Yeah. I'm going to hang around here for a while if that is okay with you." He asked.
"And who is running the Thunder Academy?"
"Leann. She's a good teacher. I trust her." Hunter bit his lips, afraid that Sensei wouldn't allow such a thing.
Sensei thought for a sec then nodded, "Yes, as do I. You are always welcome here." Hunter face gleamed with joy as he bowed and ran up the stairs. He went through the courtyard where he bumped into Marah.
She turned to him and waved, "Hunter? Is that you!?" She came up to him.
Hunter smiled, "Marah. Still training hard?" He asked.
She nodded her head happily, "Yup! Dustin is so great at teaching." She said, letting her mind wonder off to think about how great Dustin was. Hunter snapped his finger in front of her face, bringing her back to reality, "Oh, sorry!" She laughed, "It's good to see you. You going to find the others?"
Hunter chuckled, "Hope so. I'll catch you later." He said as he exited the academy. He got into his car and began to drive through the city to Storm Chargers. He parked his car and got out, looking at the same old shop he left months ago. Nothing has changed. The door jingled as he entered in and he saw a crowd of customers everywhere. He turned his head and spotted Dustin working at the registers. There was a long line in front of him so Hunter decided to get in it.
"Thank you for shopping at Storm Chargers. Have a nice day." Dustin said his usual to the customers. The customers left one by one and Hunter was up next. Dustin was looking down at his register, counting the money.
He spoke while counting, Not bothering to look up, "Can I help you?"
Hunter took a deep breath and spoke in a deep tone, "Yes, I would like to buy a cheeseburger, well done, fries and a coke." He tried to resist from laughing.
Dustin put the money down, "Look, this isn't-" He started to say as he looked up, "Hunter!?"
Hunter started laughing as he gave the goof ball a high five and a friendly pat on the back. Dustin quickly ran around the corner, happy to see his friend.
"What are you doing here?" He exclaimed.
Hunter smiled, brushing his hand through his head, "How many people are going to ask this?" He laughed.
"Huh?" Dustin was bit lost.
Hunter shrugged, "Never mine. I saw Cam and Marah earlier."
Dustin turned his neck to the back, "Shane, Tori, Kelly! Come here quick!"
"Dustin..if you knocked over the bikes again..I'm going to.." Kelly spoke as she appeared from the back door. She quickly noticed Hunter and smiled, "Hey! It's Hunter!" Tori and Shane's head quickly popped from the back room. They came out the moment they heard Hunter's name. Tori's face lit up as she ran over to him and gave him a huge hug.
She whispered in his ear, "I missed you!"
Hunter chuckled as he broke off the hug, "Same here." He then turned to his other good friend Shane and gave him a high five.
Dustin was stoked, "This is awesome. Now I have someone to talk about Motocross and will actually get me!" He exclaimed.
Tori sighed, smacking her forehead, "Dustin.." She groaned. She then looked back at Hunter, "Any word from Blake? Will he be coming back?" She asked.
Hunter shrugged, "I don't know anymore then you do." He replied.
Tori bit her lips, "Oh, that's okay. Same here." She said, folding her hands together.
Dustin sat up on the counter, Kelly was glaring at him but he shrugged her off, "So, Hunter? Where you staying?" He asked.
Hunter raised an eyebrow at him, "Why?"
Dustin scratched his head, "I'm dying to find an apartment but no one wants to room with me. Maybe you could?"
Hunter thought for a sec, "Did you find an apartment already?" Dustin nodded, "Sure, why not." Hunter smiled.
"Your going to need a job to support it." Kelly grinned.
Hunter laughed, "Kelly, may I have a job please?" He asked, giving her a puppy dog face.
Kelly covered her face, trying not to laugh, "Yes Hunter! Just stop doing that."
Shane picked up his skateboard "Well if you don't mind guys, I'm going to hit the park Promise a few buds I have a session with them. Good seeing you Hunter." Hunter waved and then turned to the remaining three.
Tori stuck her hands on her hips, "You know, an apartment doesn't sound so great.." She admitted.
Dustin looked at her, "Then where we suppose to go?"
Tori thought for a sec, then smiled, "My uncle has this cool house that he rented in the city! He doesn't use it anymore. It was just for when he visited during the summer. I'm sure I can convince him to let you guys rent it out. It'll save you the money to not buy all the furniture.
Dustin snapped his finger, "Dude, good idea! Thanks Tor!" He exclaimed.
Tori smiled, "No problem. I'll show you the place tomorrow. Meanwhile, Let Hunter stay at your house for the night."
Hunter looked over at Dustin who nodded. He jumped off the counter and turned to Kelly, "Am I off work now?" He asked.
Kelly looked over at the clock and then sighed,"Go home Dustin. I'll take it from here."
"Sweet thanks." Dustin replied and pushed Hunter out the door, "Let's go home." They walked through the parking lot and got into Hunter's car.
Dustin looked around inside, "Sweet wheels. When did you get a car?"
Hunter shrugged, "Its old. Had it for a while." He replied as he started it up. They started to drive through the city, Dustin looking out the window at all the shops, seeing if there is anything knew he hasn't seen yet.
"So, my cousin is coming into town." He spoke, looking back at him.
"Oh really?" Hunter responded, "I didn't know you had a cousin. What's her name?" He asked.
Dustin looked back out the window as Hunter turned on his street, "Kalya."
Hunter grinned, "That's a nice name. She sounds cool already."
Dustin rolled his eyes, "Pu-lease. She doesn't know about the whole ninja thing or martial arts so let's not let her know..." Dustin told him. Hunter nodded as he pulled up to Dustin's house. He exited the vehicle and turned to the one story blue house in front of him. He followed Dustin to the steps and inside where they were greeted my Dustin's mom.
"Hello Dustin. Who's your friend?" Ms. Brooks looked at Hunter.
Dustin put his hand on Hunter's shoulder, "This is Hunter. The kid I was telling you about. The one that left a few months ago. He's back." Dustin exclaimed, "He's going to stay for the night if you don't mind."
"Of course!" Ms Brooks replied happily, "Have you found a new place Hunter?"
Hunter stuck his hand in his pocket and bit his lips, "Well.." He began to say, "Tori has this uncle that might let us rent his little house he owned." He replied.
"And I'm going to move in with him! Cause Hunter can't be all alone." Dustin chuckled.
"All right, you did want to be more independent, but your coming right home if your grades are poor." She told him sternly.
"Yeah, Yeah." Dustin replied and waved Hunter to follow him up the stairs. They entered Dustin's room where a bunk bed was stationed in the corner. The room was full of Motocross Posters and tools.
"Nice room." Hunter said, exploring the room.
"Yup, make yourself at home." Dustin smiled cheerfully. Meanwhile Tori was walking through down the empty beach. The waves were crashing softly and the wind was blowing lightly in her face. She continued walking, looking out into the vast ocean. She stopped and turned to it. She pulled out a white envelope which was from Blake. She got it a couple of days ago but never really had the chance to open it. Every time he mails her, she would miss him more. Sometimes Tori wondered if she should have ever told him how she felt or if he ever felt the same way. She tore open the letter and read it carefully, like every letter she had done.
Dear Tor
This is probably the second letter you got in a week. Hope you don't nind . I'm trucking half way across the country as usual. Meeting new and wonderful people. This whole motocross thing rocks ya know? Anyway, I was thinking about the time before I left for this whole tour thing and how I told you I had something important to say. I know you got mad when I didn't and left for the plane with great haste so I thought I make it up for you. Expect a surprise in the next few days.
Your good friend
Blake
Tori looked up from the letter, "A surprise? What does he mean?" She was a bit confused. A huge gust of wind then blew the paper out of her hand, "No!" She screamed as she saw it blow towards the ocean. She sighed and turned to see Shane walking towards her with his skateboard in his hand.
He smiled to her, "What are you doing here?" He asked.
She frowned, "I lost my letter Blake gave me."
Shane chuckled, "Plenty of more where they came from."
She smirked, "Haha, funny." Tori spoke sarcastically, "And what are you doing here?" She asked, putting her hands on her hips.
Shane shrugged, "Just finished Skating. Noticed your car." He replied.
"Well, that's cool. By the way, the Blue Bay High Dance is coming up soon. Who you taking?" She asked curiously.
"I don't know." He replied, "Does it matter?" He asked as they both began to walk towards Tori's van.
Tori looked away, "No.." She responded flatly, "Just asking. Don't get all mad."
Shane rolled his eyes, "I'm not mad. Who you going with?"
Tori gave a loud sighed, "I don't know either." She replied softly, still thinking about the letter that Blake mailed her. They made it to Tori's Van where they both hopped in. Tori turned the ignition and they began driving away. Back at Ninja Ops, Cam was on his terminal, busy updating the network. Marah and Kapri came skipping down the stairs, arguing with each other.
"Your head is so much bigger then your body Marah." Kapri laughed.
Marah gasped, "Is not." She snapped back.
Kapri turned to her, "Is to."
"Is not!" Marah said again.
Cam spun his chair around, "Would you two stop. Both of your heads are equally big." Kapri and Marah exchanged looks.
He sighed, rubbing his forehead, "So-sorry." He told them.
Kapri grinned and walked to him, "Aw, is poor Cammy wammy a bit mad about the Dance?" She asked.
Cam glared at her, "And why do you say that?
She picked up the flyer next to his computer and handed it to him, "You only have been staring at that for like a thousand times in 1 hour." She smiled.
"So who do you wanna go with!?" Marah asked excitedly.
"That's non of your-" He spoke in till he saw Tori coming down the stairs. He smiled happily as he rose from his seat. Kapri and Marah glanced at each other, trying not to laugh. They had a feeling they already know who.
The blonde walked over to him and smiled, "Hey Cam."
"Tori. What is going on?" He asked.
"Just dropped Shane off. Thought I came by and do some training." She responded.
"All right. I'll get the Virtual Simulator up and running." He turned to the terminal. The day had passed as quickly as it came and a new day was upon the rangers. Hunter awoke from a sound of a car pulling into the driveway. He pulled off the covers and went to the window to see who it was. He heard Dustin waking up in the background. Dustin rolled off the bottom bunk and fell to the ground. He quickly got up and saw Hunter staring out the window. He went over to see what he was looking at. They both watch as a young woman got out of the car and brushed her brown wavy hair back and looked towards the house. Her brown eyes were fixed on the door.
"Who-who is that?" Hunter was speechless.

She continued walking, looking out into the vast ocean. She stopped and turned to it. She pulled out a white envelope which was from Blake. She got it a couple of days ago but never really had the chance to open it. Every time he mails her, she would miss him more. Sometimes Tori wondered if she should have ever told him how she felt or if he ever felt the same way. She tore open the letter and read it carefully, like every letter she had done.
Dear Tor
This is probably the second letter you got in a week. Hope you don't nind . I'm trucking half way across the country as usual. Meeting new and wonderful people. This whole motocross thing rocks ya know? Anyway, I was thinking about the time before I left for this whole tour thing and how I told you I had something important to say. I know you got mad when I didn't and left for the plane with great haste so I thought I make it up for you. Expect a surprise in the next few days.
Your good friend
Blake
Tori looked up from the letter, "A surprise? What does he mean?" She was a bit confused. A huge gust of wind then blew the paper out of her hand, "No!" She screamed as she saw it blow towards the ocean. She sighed and turned to see Shane walking towards her with his skateboard in his hand.
He smiled to her, "What are you doing here?" He asked.
She frowned, "I lost my letter Blake gave me."
Shane chuckled, "Plenty of more where they came from."
She smirked, "Haha, funny." Tori spoke sarcastically, "And what are you doing here?" She asked, putting her hands on her hips.
Shane shrugged, "Just finished Skating. Noticed your car." He replied.
"Well, that's cool. By the way, the Blue Bay High Dance is coming up soon. Who you taking?" She asked curiously.
"I don't know." He replied, "Does it matter?" He asked as they both began to walk towards Tori's van.
Tori looked away, "No.." She responded flatly, "Just asking. Don't get all mad."
Shane rolled his eyes, "I'm not mad. Who you going with?"
Tori gave a loud sighed, "I don't know either." She replied softly, still thinking about the letter that Blake mailed her. They made it to Tori's Van where they both hopped in. Tori turned the ignition and they began driving away. Back at Ninja Ops, Cam was on his terminal, busy updating the network. Marah and Kapri came skipping down the stairs, arguing with each other.
"Your head is so much bigger then your body Marah." Kapri laughed.
Marah gasped, "Is not." She snapped back.
Kapri turned to her, "Is to."
"Is not!" Marah said again.
Cam spun his chair around, "Would you two stop. Both of your heads are equally big." Kapri and Marah exchanged looks.
He sighed, rubbing his forehead, "So-sorry." He told them.
Kapri grinned and walked to him, "Aw, is poor Cammy wammy a bit mad about the Dance?" She asked.
Cam glared at her, "And why do you say that?
She picked up the flyer next to his computer and handed it to him, "You only have been staring at that for like a thousand times in 1 hour." She smiled.
"So who do you wanna go with!?" Marah asked excitedly.
"That's non of your-" He spoke in till he saw Tori coming down the stairs. He smiled happily as he rose from his seat. Kapri and Marah glanced at each other, trying not to laugh. They had a feeling they already know who.
The blonde walked over to him and smiled, "Hey Cam."
"Tori. What is going on?" He asked.
"Just dropped Shane off. Thought I came by and do some training." She responded.
"All right. I'll get the Virtual Simulator up and running." He turned to the terminal. The day had passed as quickly as it came and a new day was upon the rangers. Hunter awoke from a sound of a car pulling into the driveway. He pulled off the covers and went to the window to see who it was. He heard Dustin waking up in the background. Dustin rolled off the bottom bunk and fell to the ground. He quickly got up and saw Hunter staring out the window. He went over to see what he was looking at. They both watch as a young woman got out of the car and brushed her brown wavy hair back and looked towards the house. Her brown eyes were fixed on the door.
"Who-who is that?" Hunter was speechless.
