A/N: Hello everybody! I was re-reading over this story and realized that I didn't like the way it was going. Everything was kind of coming out of left field, and the relationships weren't built up the way I would've liked. So I decided to re-write it! I changed the pairings, except Tori and Blake, they shall live on! Lolz and I added a few more OC'S to the mix to keep things interesting. So, please read and tell me whatcha think!

Disclaimer: I don't own Power Rangers. Only my OC's.

Prelude to a Storm

"Danni! Get up! It's almost time for classes." RJ called from the kitchen. He was making breakfast for his cub so she wouldn't be hungry at school. His best friend Dom, and uncle to Danni, was setting the table and helping where he could.

"TJ's going to be here any minute with Alex and Mike!" Dom reminded her. The door to Danni's room opened and out shuffled the sleep deprived girl. "It's alive!"

The long haired brunette looked at her uncle and rolled her eyes. She yawned stretching her arms over her head, lifting slightly up her dark red tank top and her dark blue skinny jeans. "You guys are so cheery. How are you so awake?" She questioned. She slowly made her way into the bathroom to brush her hair and teeth, but left the door open so she could here their answer.

"Because, we actually went to sleep at 11, instead of 3 o'clock in the morning like you did." RJ pointed out laughing. Danni spit the toothpaste out of her mouth and walked over to sit at the table with Dom.

She pouted slightly. "Yeah, but I was still doing research on the computer. I thought I had something too…" RJ stopped flipping the pancake that he was making at looked at his adoptive daughter. Dom looked at her and put his hand on top of hers rubbing the back of her hand soothingly.

"Don't worry, you'll find out what happened soon. I just know it." Dom encouraged her. She smiled.

"Breakfast is ready!" RJ called out putting the stack of banana pancakes on the table. He brought over some eggs and orange juice and put it on the table. They started eating in an unusual silence. RJ cleared his throat. "Danni, can you promise me something?" Danni looked up from eating her pancake.

"Sure dad. What is it?" She asked curiosity evident on her face.

RJ shifted uncomfortably. "If- When you find out who your biological family is, and where they are…can you promise that you will still call, and come and visit us?" He asked. Danni put down her fork and stared down at the two grown men sitting at the table. They looked oddly like children though, at this point.

"Dad, Uncle Dom. You should know that no matter WHAT I find out that I'm not going to leave you. I can find out that I have an insanely rich family, or that I'm some heir to a dynasty, but no matter what I'm always going to be your cub. That's never going to change. In my eyes…you ARE my family." She insisted. In a flash the two adults were at her side crushing her in a hug. "Okay…kinda need to breath here!" She laughed.

"We love you two squirt." Dom laughed. The doorbell rang to their loft just above Jungle Karma Pizza, the pizzeria that RJ owned. The door opened and TJ walked in with Alex and Mike.

"Aw…such a Kodak moment." TJ teased. The trio separated and Danni got to her feet.

"Time already?" She asked. Alex and Mike bobbed their chestnut colored heads.

"Yup, if we want to get there on time we'd better hurry." Alex commented.

"Yeah, or else Sensei is going to get mad." Mike put in. Danni nodded her head.

"That's what I'm here for. Let's go. I'll drive you girls today." TJ offered. "Cassie is out shopping for some groceries so I've got nothing to do." He shrugged.

"Thanks TJ. Dom and I have got a lot of work to do today and couldn't have driven Danni." RJ thanked.

Alex smiled and raised her hand. "We can all drive you know." She reminded them. Dom laughed.

"Yes, but you all almost crashed your cars, and motorcycles." He pointed out.

"In my defense it was Alex at the wheel not me. I just lent her my driver's license because she forgot hers." Mike held her hands up in defense.

Danni looked at the clock on the wall. "Oh crap, we've got to go." She said chugging her orange juice.

"Language!" Both Dom and RJ shouted.

"Bye Dad! Bye Uncle Dom!" She shouted grabbing her backpack and following TJ and her friends down the stairs.

"Hurry dad hurry!" Alex urged him. TJ laughed.

"I'm going as fast as I can, without going over the speed limit." The group made it to the woods and started walking out. TJ followed them.

"Um dad…you don't have to follow us." Mike told him. TJ shrugged.

"I told you I've got nothing to do. Might as well just follow you." The four kept walking through the woods when they came upon a waterfall, although something looked different. There were scorch marks around the pool of water and tree branches were ripped off.

"Something's not right here." Danni muttered. The four quickly ran onto the water and through the water fall to see the Elemental Ninja Academy being attacked. "Oh no! We've got to find Sensei!" Danni rushed off before her friends or TJ could stop her. She dodged and weaved through the battling students and headed for the main building. She jumped inside and saw her Sensei battling a few deformed looking monsters. "Sensei!"

Her Sensei turned around. "Daniela!" He shouted. He kicked the three monsters he was fighting away and ran up to her. He shoved a box in her hands. These are for you, Alexandria and Michaela. You must take these and travel to Blue Bay Harbor. There will be another Ninja Academy there. You will assist them. Do you understand?"

"No, I don't. What's happening? Who are these people?" She asked confused.

Her Sensei looked at her and started pushing her out the door. "You must go. Follow my instructions and go to Blue Bay Harbor. Yours is the one in the middle. It doesn't matter which you give Alexandria or Michaela. Now go! Quickly! The fate of our school…and the world rests with you." He spoke and then pushed her out of the building. All the students were gone and a giant tornado hit the top of the school. Danni screamed and started running back to the entrance.

Debris and dust was flying everywhere, making it nearly impossible to see. "AJ! MJ! TJ! Where are you?!" She shouted covering her eyes. A strong hand come on her shoulder and she yelped.

"It's me! Alex and Mike are in the car. We've got to go!" TJ shouted pulling her along.

"But the school!" Danni tried turning to look back.

"The students and the school are gone! I already called you dad, he should be here soon. For now we've got to get you out of here!" He shouted pushing her through the waterfall and out onto the land.

"I can't see." Danni muttered clearing her eyes using the water. She slowly blinked and saw the fuzzy figures of TJ and her two best friends.

"Danni! Danni! Where are you?!" RJ's panicked voice sounded through the otherwise calm forest.

"RJ! Over here!" Dom shouted. He apparently was standing near the group. Danni blinked a few more times and her vision cleared, just in time to see RJ run into the clearing and relief wash over his face.

"Thank God." He muttered and ran over hugging her. Dom wasn't that far behind.

"What happened?" Dom asked.

"Somehow, someone got into the Academy." Mike spoke up for the first time.

"The students were all captured in these clear bubbles and taken into the sky." Alex added on.

"What?" The two newest arrivals asked in shock.

TJ nodded. "Then Danni ran out of the school just before a massive tornado ripped it apart." Danni nodded and then pulled at the box that her Sensei gave her.

"I saw Sensei and he gave me these. He said to take one and give the other two to Alex and Mike. He said we have to go to Blue Bay Harbor and help the Wind Ninja Academy." RJ took the box from his daughter and opened it up. He gasped.

"What's in the box RJ?" Dom asked. TJ looked at the box and RJ's face with a knowing look. RJ turned it around and nestled in the box were three morphers.

A Few Hours Later

"You sure you want to do this?" Cassie asked. The four adults were standing in the driveway of Jungle Karma Pizza looking at their children, or in Dom's case niece.

"We've got to do this mom." Mike muttered.

"It's either that or the world is doomed." Alex said dramatically. They had each had their bags packed and stowed away in Alex's sleek silver Volvo. Danni stood by her black and red Suzuki sports bike. She was wearing her black leather jacket and pulled on black leather gloves.

"But are you sure you can handle this?" RJ asked. The men nodded in agreement.

"I mean, back in our old team it was pretty dangerous." TJ reminded them.

Dom decided to jump in. "And not to mention the fact that you girls have no idea who your fighting, and where the Ninja Academy is." Danni sighed.

"It's something we've got to do though. We'll be back as soon as we can and we'll call you everyday to tell you how it's going." She assured. Cassie sighed.

"Alright, then good luck you three." She hugged her daughters. RJ and Dom embraced Danni in another bone crushing hug.

"Need…oxygen!" She shouted. They laughed letting go. TJ and Cassie then hugged Danni and RJ and Dom attacked the twins.

Alex gasped "We're…"

"…Suffocating." Mike finished. All the adults laughed and watched silently as Alex and Mike hopped into the car, and Danni put on her helmet. With one last look at their family they drove off. The road to Blue Bay Harbor was desolated. "How long do you think it'll take to get there and find the academy?" Mike asked. Alex shrugged at the wheel and Danni sighed. She had moved her bike so it was by her friends car.

"One thing at a time Mike. Let's just make it to Blue Bay Harbor first." After a few hours of driving the road started to become inhabited and a sign came up.

Welcome to Blue Bay Harbor

"Okay…now what?" Alex asked.

"Find a place to stay and some jobs." Mike reasoned. Danni nodded in agreement.

"You guys take the left half of town, I'll take the right. We'll meet up back at the beach if anything." The three agreed then split up.

At the Beach

A girl with long blonde hair and wearing a blue tankini and blue swim trunks was surfing in the water. Her hair was matted to her back as the wave washed over her. She rode the next big wave back to shore and hopped off her board. Picking it up from the sand she jogged up to a blue van and packed her surf board inside. She reached into her bag which was on the sand and pulled out her watch which was beeping loudly. She grimaced at the time and quickly strapped her watch on and tossed her bag in the van. She was late- really late.

At the Skate Park

A teenage boy in a red sweatshirt rode up to the ramp in front of him. He skated to the top and grabbed the bottom of his board, so he didn't drop it, and flipped in the air. He continued down the ramp and skated over to his friend and skidded to a halt, pushing his skateboard up and into his hand as he did so.

"Hey that was awesome dude!" He friend spoke.

"Ha, ha! Finally landed the back-flip man." He spoke proudly.

"Hey you wanna hit that new rail?" His friend asked. Suddenly remembering that he had to be somewhere the boy clad in red grabbed his friends wrist to look at the time.

"Nah, man I can't I've got to get to class." He said worried.

"Class?"

"Never mind man. I'll catch ya later bro." He spoke and skated off.

At the Motocross Track

A blue and yellow bike flew into the air. The rider, clad in yellow gear, bent his body backwards so his feet were at the handlebars. As he was coming down he quickly shifted his position so that he was sitting down correctly in the bike. He landed and quickly took off passing more racers. He turned on a hill, kicking up dirt as he blasted through the finish line. A short girl with fiery red hair clicked a stop watch and raced over to him.

"Not bad." She told herself. "Lap times are about 2 seconds off." She told the boy. He had just pulled off his helmet revealing a mop of curly dark brown, ear length hair.

"Yeah, I know. My bike's bogging on that uphill." Realization suddenly hit the motocross rider. "Ooh, what time is it?" He asked frantically.

"Five after why?"

"Oh man. I am so busted." He blurted out, ditching his bike and running off. The bike slowly started to tip over on the red head.

"Dustin! Where are you going?!" She shouted.

"Call me later okay? I gotta go!" Dustin shouted back and ran off.

The bike continued to tip further over. "Hey! You okay?" A female voice called out. She ran over and helped steady the bike. The red head sighed in relief.

"Thanks. I owe you one. I'm Kelly. And you are?" Kelly looked to the young brunette who was just a bit taller than her.

"My name's Daniela James. But you can call me Danni or DJ." She said with a smile. Kelly smiled also.

"You seem to be new in town. Well whatever you need just come to me." She insisted. Danni grinned inwardly.

"Well…I DO need a job…"

Out in the Main Square

"Where are they?" Tori asked from inside her van looking at her watch. She bit down on her lip. "Come on."

Shane came up skating from behind the van. He hopped onto the sidewalk and stopped at the open window on the passenger side. "BOO! Ya miss me?" He asked. Tori smiled at her friend.

"Dream on." She countered. Shane opened the door and hopped in putting his skateboard in the back. "Where's Dustin?" She looked over to see Dustin running across the grass putting on his backpack. She sighed. "Last as usual." He opened the back of the van and climbed in.

"What's sup dude?" He asked high-fiving Shane.

"Sup?" Shane asked. Shane pulled Dustin forward as he flipped over the seat landing in between Tori and himself.

"How can you guys be late every single time." She asked as they were driving, emphasizing single. "I couldn't pull that off if I actually planned it."

"Maybe that's because you're the reliable one." Shane spoke.

"What does that mean? The reliable one." Tori asked.

Shane turned slightly. "In any group there are different kinds of people."

"Totally true, think about…um…like the Power Rangers." Dustin added on. Tori smiled at her friends.

"Power Rangers? You've got to be joking." She asked.

"No. Like, okay, there's always like the mellow, like reflective dude."

Shane jumped into the conversation. "Then there's the risk taker. The adrenaline guy." He spoke turning the rearview mirror so he could look at himself. "That would of course be me." The three laughed.

"And you Tori, your just the logical one." Dustin finished.

Tori shook her head. "You two need to lay off the comic books. Seriously. Power Rangers? Whatever." She spoke as she traveled along the road leading to the mountainous forest. Tori pulled up to a patch of trees.

"This place always creeps me out." Dustin commented as he got out along with his friends.

"I heard that bro." Shane agreed. Tori sighed.

"You guys are so lame." She spoke as they started off into the forest. The three made their way through the forest and came upon a spot by a waterfall.

"It sure is quiet out here." Shane commented. "A little two quiet."

A black blur jumped behind the three. Instinctively they whirled around and got into a defensive stance. In a flash ninjas garbed in black leather suits appeared before them looking for a fight. Shane looked from Tori and Dustin and nodded. They grabbed a fistful of clothing and ripped it off revealing black leather ninja clothes with Red, Blue and Yellow outlining respectively. The Ninja's ran forward after the three.

Tori saw two ninja's behind her and jumped out onto the water. She ran a few yards before stopping and turning. The two ninjas jumped onto the water and followed Tori. She gasped and turned and started running again. She skidded on the water and whirled around to see them jumping into the air. Surprised, Tori lost her concentration and fell into the water.

Dustin jumped, twisting mid air and landing in a group of ninjas. He stooped down so he could kick the legs out from one of them, but they jumped away. He immediately stood up and blocked a kick from another. The Ninja's scattered and two smoke paths came from under the ground. "Uh-oh, not good." He muttered as two ninja's popped out of the ground. He made a hand sign and pointed downwards creating a puff of dirt and smoke. When it cleared Dustin was waist deep in the ground, covered in dirt, twigs, and leaves, struggling to get out.

Shane flipped over so he was a few yards away from three of the ninja's. One of them made a hand sigh and jumped, starting to run on the air. Shane followed his actions and charged forward. However, the ninja was faster and struck Shane in the back sending him towards the ground. The three were gathered by the ninja and forced back to the waterfall.

"Let go of me man." Dustin complained. Tori looked soaked and miserable. Shane's uniform was ripped and dusty. Dustin's hair was messy and his clothes were full of mud, sticks and leaves. In the distance a hawk shrieked. "Aw man." Dustin muttered. It landed in front of them and transformed into a man in white and grey ropes holding a staff. Dustin tried to hide behind Shane but a jab to the ribs prevented him from doing so.

"That's enough for today." The Sensei said. The Ninja's immediately scattered. He walked up to the three teens and looked at them in turn. "Tori, Shane, Dustin. I'm very disappointed. I will expect a visit from you, so we may discuss your lack of commitment to your Ninja Training." He said before walking out onto the water and disappeared into the waterfall.

"Well that wasn't so bad. Huh?" Dustin asked. His two comrades turned and glared at him before walking onto the water. "What?! It wasn't! Tell you what, you can blame it all on me."

"Don't worry we will." Tori retorted as they walked into the Academy. Their Sensei was waiting for them.

"You have been students at the Wind Ninja Academy for nearly a year and you still haven't seen the importance of punctuality. I suggest you find a way to change that before you return tomorrow. Otherwise I will have no choice but to expel you." Shane's head jerked up.

"Wait you can't!" He argued.

"You all have great potential. It would be a shame to waste it." Shane lowered his head again. "Now go. You must have other studies." The three bowed and walked off. A teen with black hair, cut in a bowl shape with glasses and a green buttoned shirt walked up to the Sensei.

"I don't know why you put up with them." He spoke.

Sensei smiled. "Well then Cameron, I guess that's why I'm the Sensei. And you're the Sensei's son."

Cam smirked. A soft rumbling sound went off in the distance. Sensei turned around and looked to the purple gathering of clouds in the sky with fear.

"What's wrong dad?" Cam asked.

In Space

A man wearing a black leather mask with horns was sitting on a throne in a spaceship heading towards Earth. He was laughing maniacally looking at the scene.

At Storm Chargers

Dustin was in the back room fixing some bikes, surrounded by hundreds of alarm clocks all set to the same time. Tori walked over to the lounge holding two cups of coffee. She handed one to Shane who was sitting on the couch and then joined him. He was watching the TV.

"Kick-flip to 50/50. That's what I gotta learn for my video!" He pointed to the TV screen using the remote. The door opened and Danni walked in. Kelly saw her and smiled.

"Danni! Glad to see you found it okay. Welcome to Storm Chargers." She greeted the girls. "Wee sell everything and anything that has to do with sports." Danni broke out into a huge grin.

"Sounds like my kinda place. You got a motocross track anywhere around here?"

"You ride?" Kelly asked surprised. Danni nodded.

"Totally. I've been playing in the dirt since I was a cu- I mean kid." Kelly smiled.

"Awesome. There is a track not to far from here. Your co-worker, Dustin, actually rides two. You both can come out to the track so I can get your lap times. Maybe enter you in a few races." Danni beamed.

"Aw man Kelly thanks! So where's Dustin?" She asked. Kelly jerked her thumb to the back room. Danni walked back there and saw Dustin looking at the clocks. "Late fore something?" She asked. He jumped and turned toward her.

"I will be, If I don't have all these clocks. Hey, I'm Dustin. And you are?" He asked shaking her hand.

"Daniela James. Call me Danni or DJ. I'm going to be working her from now on." She spoke. Suddenly all the alarm clocks rang out. Tori and Shane were immediately out of there seats and running out the door.

"Shoot, I'm going to be late. It's been nice meeting you. I'll introduce you two my friends later!" He shouted and ran for the door.

"Dustin, your not leaving me here to clean up again are you?" Kelly asked. Dustin skidded to a stop.

"Have I ever told you what a cool boss you are?" He asked. Danni laughed.

"I can do the cleaning. You go on." Danni spoke from the back room.

"Thanks Danni! Bye Kelly!" Dustin shouted running out. Kelly turned and looked at the girl.

"Looks, like it's just you and me." She smiled. "Oh, do you have any of your gear with you?" She asked.

Danni looked up and shook her head. "No, the trip to Blue Bay Harbor was a spur of the moment thing so I forgot to pack my gear." She pouted. Kelly smiled.

"Well, since you were so generous to stay here and clean up, I'll give you one of our bike's and some gear. On the house." Danni's eyes widened.

"I couldn't impose on you like that." She spoke rapidly. Kelly shook her head.

"No problem. It's a gift. Think of it as a Welcome to Blue Bay Harbor!" She insisted. Danni smiled at the girl.

"Guess we better get cleaning." She muttered and started humming the song from the Nutcracker Ballet. The Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy.

In the Van

"These continued atmospheric disturbances has the weather service baffled." The radio sounded.

"Are we on time?" Dustin asked looking at his watch as Tori drove along.

"We're early." Tori spoke. She noticed a car on the side of the road. The hood of the engine was opened and smoke was coming out. "Hey, it looks like they need help." She stopped the car and got out.

"No way. Tori we can't." Shane started arguing.

"We can't just leave them here. What if something happens to them?"

Shane followed her out of the car. "All I know is, if we're late something will definetly happen to us." He countered.

Dustin hopped out with his tool box. "Two minutes dude."

At the Ninja Academy

Sensei was meditating under the bright sun in the sky. The flowers swayed gently with the passing breeze. Then suddenly the wind picked up and the sky darkened. Sensei's eyes opened. "Lothor." He muttered before getting up and walking a few yards.

In front of him five figures materialized. One being a short stocky monster dressed like a black knight with swords coming out of his shoulders. The next one was big and green. He had on a sword of white box on his back. The next two were both female and human looking. A girl with pink hair and with a type of Mohawk in the front and braids in the side stood smiling. She had some horn typed headgear on her face and was wearing skin tight clothing. The last girl had brown hair in long curls with a type of bug eye head gear on her forehead, making her look like a bee.

The last one was a man with a black leather mask with horns coming out. He hand long jet black hair in a pony tail and wore long flowing black clothes. Sensei looked at him with apprehension. "The dark energy is strong with you."

"It's had time to grow." Lothor countered.

"It has been a while."

"Armies take time to time. And now is the time for revenge. Zurgane…proceed."

"As you wish sir." The black knight known as Zurgane spoke while bowing. He and the other three disappeared while Lothor stayed behind.

"It doesn't have to be this way." Sensei spoke.

Zurgane took a step forward. "Why would now be any different?" He asked. He shot out a red beam of energy at Sensei who rolled out of the way. It instead his a statue and exploded. The explosion could be seen by all the students of the academy, who immediately stopped to stare.

The four appeared again. The girl with pink hair raised her hand. "Kelzaks!" she called out. Human shaped monsters with circular shaped head and black Mohawks appeared. They were in black suites with what looked like white stitching and on it's face were red snake designs. The Ninja's all got into a fighting stance and charged forward fighting the Kelzaks. Though they fought valiantly the Kelzaks and four mysterious evildoers were too much for the students to handle.

On the Side of the Road

Dustin closed the hood of the car dusting off his hands. They said goodbye to the elderly couple who were saying their thanks and returned to the van.

"Hey dude! What if his alarm clock didn't go off this morning and he doesn't even miss us?" Dustin asked being his usual optimistic self.

Shane opened the car door and sighed. "He's a Ninja Master, Dustin. He doesn't oversleep." Dustin stood in front of him with a face of confusion.

"Really?"

At the Academy

Lothor jumped into the air and started firing red beams at Sensei once more. Sensei continued to roll and jump out of the way of the numerous blasts.

Down with the students they were being completely creamed by the Kelzaks. "Now Chubo!" Zurgane ordered. The green monster stood up.

"Goodbye Wind Ninja Academy!" He shouted as bubble like orbs flew into the sky and trapped the students. The orbs flew upward into the purple sky. Lothor walked toward Sensei as a vortex flew down onto the Academy and started to rip it apart and take it into the sky. He blast Sensei with one final energy blast seeming to have hit him.

At the Entrance to the Academy

Shane, Tori and Dustin appeared and saw the chaos before them. "What's going on?!" Dustin asked.

"Something's attacking the school!" Shane shouted. The three covered their faces from the debris flying at them.

They watched helplessly as the Academy was torn to pieces and sucked up into the sky. They final assault blew them backwards and the sky cleared. They each shot up fearful and looking at the spot where there Academy once stood. They slowly made there way and saw a giant crater where the Academy stood. There was no sign of life at all.

"It's gone!" Shane exclaimed.

Dustin looked shocked. "I don't know I'm thinking…Earthquake."

"When was the last time you heard of an earthquake sucking buildings and people into the sky?" Shane asked sarcastically. They wandered along the ruble for a few minutes surveying the damage.

"Who would do something like this?" Tori asked.

"Are…we the only students left?" Dustin asked slightly scared.

Shane noticed pieces of ruble moving and a hand come from out of the rocks. "Whose that?" He saw Cam's face and started running toward him. "It's Cam! Help me get him out!" The three of them ran over and pulled him out.

"We've got you. Come on." Tori encouraged him.

"Cam are you okay?" Shane asked.

Cam nodded. "Yeah, I'm fine." He assured. Not two seconds later a red beam shot down from the sky a few yards from where they were standing. The four immediately got up and started running away from the blasts. Cam led them to a secret door in the ground. He opened it and climbed in. "Come on guys. This way!" He shouted. The three Ninja's looked at each other, then at the blasts and quickly piled in. Tori closed the door behind her.

"Cam what is this place?" Shane asked.

"Just follow me." He ordered. He dusted his hand off and placed it on a multicolored scanner. Lights turned on and the cave turned into a room. There was a computer at one end of the room, a library on a raised platform and a table in the middle.

"No way." Shane muttered.

"It's amazing." Tori breathed.

"Dude." Dustin spoke for lack of a better term.

"Don't ask any questions because I can't answer them." Cam ordered.

"So what this is all like one big secret?" Shane asked. Cam sighed annoyed.

"Yes Shane this is one big secret."

"And there are times when secrets must be revealed Cam." Sensei's voice spoke as a small miniature model of a the sanctuary where Sensei would meditate came forward. In it was a guinea pig dressed like Sensei.

"Whoa. He…uh…that big rat sound's just like Sensei." Shane muttered. The others nodded in agreement. Dustin bent down to look at him.

"Yeah, but it doesn't really look like him though. Well…except for the clothes." Cam sighed at Dustin's antics and looked at the other two.

"My father's not a rat. He's a guinea pig." Cam corrected Shane. Dustin spun around still on the floor and looked at Tori and Shane.

"Dude, did he just explain why and I like…" He whistled and waved his hand over his head. "Missed it?"

"He's stuck." Cam said.

"Stuck?" Shane asked.

"Yes Shane, stuck. Observe." Sensei spoke. He flipped over onto the computer effectively knocking Dustin on his butt and pressed a few buttons. A screen came up showing the battle between Sensei and Lothor. "This is Lothor. Once a great Ninja he was banished from the Earth when his hunger for power turned him to the dark side. When our energy fields collided, I was transformed into what you see before you. Now he is back, and has an army who will do anything they can to take our planet for their own. Unless they are stopped."

Dustin spoke up. "Who is going to be dumb enough to try and stop them?" He asked.

"An excellent question Dustin. The morphers, Cam." Sensei ordered.

Cam looked shocked. "Father, your not serious."

"We have no choice."

"But these guys?! I mean…them. They're…well, they're…"

"We're what?" Tori inquired. Shane crossed his arms.

"Yeah, I don't like the way that sounded. Do you?" He asked Dustin.

"Actually, dude, I'm a kinda lost here." He admitted.

"Now Cam." Sensei spoke more sternly. Cam sighed and marched off to the back room. When he returned he had a box, much like the one given to Danni, by her Sensei. He opened it and nestled inside it were three different morphers, in red, blue and yellow.

"These…are your Power Ranger Wind Morphers." Cam explained. Tori looked unbelieving, Shane's mouth fell open and Dustin was nearly jumping up and down with excitement.

"Yeah right." Tori muttered.

"Yes!" Dustin snapped his fingers. "See I knew it dude! I was right! Power Rangers are real!" He took out his Wind Morpher and strapped it to his wrist.

"No way…" Shane spoke as he and Tori took theirs and strapped it on.

"Dustin, Child of the Earth. True to your heart, you will embody the powers of the Yellow Wind Ranger." Sensei spoke. Dustin looked like he was going to explode with joy. "Tori, Fluid and Graceful like the water. You will become the Blue Wind Ranger." Tori smiled gratefully. "Shane, Reaching for the Stars. You will command the powers of the Red Wind Ranger." Shane smirked. The three lowered their hands in unison. "From this point on you will be known as the Wind Power Rangers. Protectors of the Earth."

There was a two second awkward silence before Shane spoke up. "So…what exactly does this thing do?" Dustin and Tori looked at Shane.

"Where's the switch?" Tori asked Shane and Dustin.

"Does it have games or what?" Dustin asked being Dustin.

Tori rolled her eyes. "No, it doesn't have games." She chastised as the three started arguing.

"Ladies and gentlemen. The defenders of the galaxy." Cam said sarcastically. His computer started beeping.

"Quickly! Lothor's army is attacking! You must intercept them. Call on your powers by saying 'Ninja Storm Ranger Form.'" The three nodded and headed out to where the school once stood, which was now being prowled around by a monster and some Kelzaks.

"Hey! Looking for us!" Shane called out from the cliff, he Tori and Dustin were standing on.

"It's them!" The monster shouted.

"Okay." He raised his arm up and did a double take. "Ninja Storm…what is it again?"

"Something form?" Tori asked.

"Ninja Storm Ranger Form." Dustin explained.

"No it's not." Shane argued. Dustin sighed.

"Dude…watch and learn." He cracked his neck and stepped forward. "NINJA STORM! RANGER FORM! HA!" He was soon dressed in a yellow suit with a helmet that looked like a lion. "Power of Earth!" He looked down at himself and laughed. "Oh yeah baby yeah! Well, I guess no one's laughing at the comic book geek now are they?" He snickered at the two. Shane looked at Tori and nodded.

"NINJA STORM! RANGER FORM! HA!" They shouted. Tori was in a blue suit with a skirt and a dolphin like helmet. Shane had a red suit with a hawk like helmet.

"Power of Air!"

"Power of Water!"

"Attack!" The monster ordered the Kelzaks.

"Wind Rangers! Ninja Swords!" Shane shouted. They pulled out the swords that was on their back. Shane started walking at the water and whacking at the Kelzaks. "Alright boys, step aside." He laughed.

Tori turned her sword into a laser rifle. She charged out onto the water firing at the Kelzaks. "What's wrong? Never seen a girl in blue spandex walk on water?" She asked.

There was a trail of dust harming the Kelzaks before Dustin flipped out of the ground. "Yeah! It worked!" He cheered. He stabbed his sword into the ground effectively wiping out the rest of the Kelzaks.

"Your impressive against Kelzaks but you didn't really think that was all we had did you?!" The monster shouted firing lasers at the rangers who jumped into the air on gliders. Shane swooped in and scooped up the monster. "Put me down!" It ordered.

Shane shrugged. "You got it." He laughed and dropped the monster where he made an indent in the ground. The rangers dropped to the ground and pulled out their special weapons. "Hawk Blaster! Fired up!"

"Sonic Fin! Sound off!" Tori shouted.

Dustin held up a huge lion shaped hammer. "Lion Hammer! Ready to Roar! Beat this blue dude!" He shouted hitting the ground with the hammer. The monster flew into the air and came crashing back down.

"Ready for a workout?" Tori asked putting the Sonic Fin to her lips. "And 1...and 2... And Spin! And work those abs! Work it! Work it! And down!" She ordered. And the monster was doomed to follow her commands.

"Is it hot out here? Or is it just you?" Shane asked firing the blaster at the monster. "Let's put em together guys!" Shane ordered. They put all the weapons together so they formed a blaster.

"Storm Striker!" They shouted in unison. Dustin and Tori held the weapon on their shoulders while Shane was at the trigger. "Ready?" Dustin asked.

"Fire!" Shane shouted. A black ball of energy shot out attacking the monster so he exploded. The three celebrated. They lowered their visors.

"That really just happened right?" Shane asked.

"I'm pretty sure it did." Tori nodded.

"Now that…was AWESOME!" Dustin shouted.

Back at Ninja Ops

The three Power Rangers walked in with their helmets off. "Ha! See I told you guys! I told you there were Power Rangers but you guys were like 'Nah you comic book geek it's an urban legend man.'" Dustin boasted.

"Hey, hey, hey. That wasn't me. That was Miss Fluid and Graceful over here." Shane spoke poking fun at Tori.

"Alright that was me." She admitted.

Sensei spoke up. "You did well this time Rangers. But understand that there will be battles in the future. Lothor will not rest until the Earth is completely under his command. Or until he is destroyed. The future is in your hands Power Rangers."

In the Forest

The headlights from a car signaled the arrival of Alex and Mike. The two hopped out of the car and walked over to Danni who was leaning against her bike. "You two find any jobs?" She inquired. They nodded.

"We got jobs at some places down by the beach. I'm working at Starbucks." Mike informed her.

"And I'm going to work at Aeropostale." Alex added on. "And you?" Alex asked.

"I'm working at Storm Chargers. I'm met the boss at the track and helped her with a bike so she gave me the job. She's even giving me a bike and some riding gear while I'm in town."

Mike smiled. "Well she sounds really nice." Danni nodded.

"But as for the house hunt, it wasn't too good. We don't have enough money to get an apartment." Alex informed. Danni shrugged.

"We'll just stay in your car. There are some blankets in the trunk and it'll be better then sleeping outside." She suggested. The three girls agreed and after getting out the blankets and hopping in the car they took out their phones and called their parents. They informed them about how there day was going and what they were doing, minus the sleeping in the car part. They hung up and looked at each other.

Danni snuggled under her blanket in the back seat. "Tomorrow's a new day girls. Get some sleep. If got a feeling we'll need it."
