Danny woke up the next day when he felt a pair of unwelcome eyes on him. He looked around to find out where they were but he couldn't locate the source of the vulnerable feeling. The feeling followed him around all day. Then it acted upon his weakness and out from the shadows leapt Blaze X. She grabbed him in front of Michael and whisked him away to the top of the School building. He didn't even have time to morph. Luckily Michael did.
"Sonic X! Sonic Speed!" Knuckles X jumped to a really high point in the parking lot and glided for a punch to Blaze X's gut. She had Danny all tied up for the time being. He couldn't even reach his X Morpher. All he could do was wait for Michael to realize that Danny was stuck. Which actually was a while ago but, Blaze X was too good of a fighter for him. He had a hard time finding an opening let alone getting away with blowing by.
Then Michael had the perfect opening. He took it and Blaze X fell to the ground. Michael punched the rope and the entire thing snapped off. Danny was free to morph and help out Michael.
"Sonic X! Sonic Speed!" Danny was ready to fight. He dashed around and caused a cyclone that Michael used to encircle Blaze X and take her down. When she transformed back Michael almost looked Shocked at what he had done. The girl had blue streaks in her blond hair, and her face was that of a cheerleader. Then the eyes flew open and Danny could see why Michael was shocked. Though he had never seen this girl, Danny knew this had to be Michael's girlfriend, Christine Archer.
"Michael?" Christine said. "What am I doing here?"
"You don't… remember anything?" Michael asked.
"I remember fighting the next X-Rangers… as one of them."
"Okay your memory isn't messed up then," Danny said. "I'm Michael's friend, Danny." After the introduction, Danny explained everything, how she had disappeared a few weeks ago, how she was turned against the X-Rangers, and how she and Blaze had become X-Rangers themselves. He also told her about the two of them being X-Rangers.
"Oh God!" Christine said. "Michael, I'm so sorry about this-"
"Don't apologize," Michael said. "You know I don't like being apologized to."
"I didn't," Danny said. "Oh, is Blaze still with you?" Christine checked her Morpher.
"Yeah, I can still Morph," She said.
"Good, welcome to the team." Out of the door on the roof rushed Elizabeth, Xavier, and Karen. When they couldn't find Blaze X, Michael explained what had happened with Christine. With the new member under the team's might, they went to check up on Dr. Cooper. Christine was admitted as a Team Rose member of the X-Rangers. Michael had never been happier to be with someone in his life.
