Chapter 4:
The girls decided to stay at the Rock Porium as they knew that it would be opening time soon. Maddie was at the till, making sure there was enough change in it and to put the rest of the money in the safe in Toby's office.
'Sis, get down!' Vida suddenly yelled from the DJ table, lunging for her sister.
'Huh, wha….' Maddie started to ask, before being knocked of her feet from an explosion that came from the front entrance of the shop. She was blown backwards into the wall behind her, hitting her head hard on the wall and blacking out.
'Sis,' Vida coughed, having faired a bit better from the explosion. She clutched her arm, seeing a small cut on the top of her left arm. 'Sis!' Vida tried again, but got no answer. She got up from the floor, by the DJ table, and started to make her way towards her sister.
'So you're the Chosen Master, Pink Ranger,' a female voice said from within the clearing smoke.
'How do you…,' Vida tried to say, but instead coughed from the spreading smoke and dust.
'Oh, Necrolai told me to watch out for you guys, but she never thought that the Chosen Master would be one of you guys,' the voice replied.
'What do you want?' Vida managed to say, rising to her full height. A dark silhouette stood right next to the counter and Vida hoped that the silhouette didn't know Maddie was there.
'I think that is obvious,' the voice said. 'I want that damn Dragon's Egg!' With that, she lunged at Vida and grabbed her by the neck. She then threw Vida into the inside window and into Toby's office.
'Ahhh!' Vida yelled as she landed in a heap at the front of Toby's desk. 'You do know that I won't give you the Dragon's Egg. Wake up sis, and call for help!' Vida urgently thought.
'Oh please, I do believe you will!' The voice said, stepping through the broken window. She was dressed as a Ninja in black clothes, with a katana sword strapped to her back. 'I've been looking for that egg for quite some time, and with that talisman I gave Necrolai, she'll be on a wild goose chase for quite some time, allowing me to take what is rightfully mine.'
'And why is it yours exactly?' Vida asked, using the desk to pull herself into a sitting position. She had landed badly on her ankle, knowing that she couldn't fight. But she also knew that her sister was injured in the shop, meaning that she had to get help soon. 'And who are you if you don't work for the Underworld?'
'O, I don't think that's important for now,' the woman Ninja said, drawing her Katana from its sheath. 'And my name is Huntress, and you will get that egg for me.' She then pointed the tip of the blade at Vida's throat.
Meanwhile, Maddie was woken by a scream coming from Toby's office. 'Ugh, my head,' she whispered, clutching the back of her head. She then looked up when she realized who that scream belonged with.
Using the wall for support, Maddie managed to stand up and took a step forward, clutching the edge of the counter for support. She then got her morpher out and dialled Nick's number. 'Come on, pick up,' Maddie whispered after a few rings. She could hear her sister talking to someone, meaning that Vida was ok, for now.
'Hello?' Nick asked blearily.
'Nick, its me, Maddie. I need you and the guys to get to the Rock Porium fast. Someone attacked us and it has my sister cornered.' Maddie explained, sitting down with her back to the counter. Her head injury was taking a lot of energy from her.
'Right, I'm on my way. Hold on Maddie, I'll ring the others on the way here!' Nick said, sounding more awake than before.
'Thanks,' Maddie whispered, closing her morpher when Nick had hung up. She then shielded her eyes from a bright light that came from the office, sending something crashing into one of the display cases at the other end of the shop.
'Sis, sis!'
'What?' Maddie asked, opening her eyes when she heard a voice she recognised. 'Vida? Is that you?'
'Yeah, of course it is.' Vida replied. Maddie looked at her and saw that her left arm was bleeding. She also noticed that she wasn't putting her full weight on her right ankle. 'Come on, we have to get out of here, before she gets up,'
'Ok, what happened? And how badly hurt are you?' Maddie asked.
'We were attacked and that doesn't matter,' Vida said, offering her left hand for her sister.
'Your hand, what happened?' Maddie asked again, seeing a large cut on her left palm that was bleeding.
'This? Its nothing,' Vida said, smiling at her sister. She then offered her right hand and hid the other one behind her back. But Maddie saw pain behind those eyes and knew that whatever happened in that office, it took a lot out of her sister.
'So Pink Ranger, you have a sister?' A voice asked from the back of the store.
Vida's smile faded and her face darkened as she looked to where the voice came from. 'That is not of your concern, Huntress,' she growled, standing protectively in front of Maddie.
'O, but it is,' Huntress said, stepping into their line of sight. Maddie got a look at the person who attacked them for the first time, and saw that her sword had blood on it.
'You see Pink Ranger, I now know how I can get you to bring that Dragon's Egg to me,' she said menacingly. 'I do believe you will for your sister's wellbeing?'
'Yeah, but you have to go through me first,' Vida said, getting into a fighting stance. She took a deep breath, ready to use her final reserves of energy. But she also knew that she wouldn't last long due to her twisted ankle.
'That shouldn't be too difficult,' Huntress said, pointing her sword at Vida. She then lunged at her but was stopped by another sword.
'I don't know who you are, but you leave my friends alone!' The owner of the sword said.
'Nick,' Maddie whispered, struggling to stay awake.
Huntress spun away from Nick and said, 'I'll be back Chosen Master, and one way or another, that Egg will be mine!' With that, she then teleported out of the shop.
Chip and Xander arrived just as she left. 'Are we too late?' Chip asked, powering down. Xander and Nick also powered down, leaving them in their pyjamas.
'Whoa, Toby's not gonna be happy when he sees this mess,' Xander said. But Nick wasn't listening. He was crouching beside Maddie, catching her as she blacked out again.
He looked up and Vida and asked, 'What did she mean when she said 'I'll be back Chosen Master'?
'That's because she wants the Egg, and she'll hurt my sister to get it,' she replied. She then crumpled to the floor next to Maddie, and blacked out.
