Author's Note: I skipped Pork Chopped; it was boring as hell, so sue me. Just pretend it didn't happen. There was a scene with Hannah and Cam, and another between Hannah and Shane that I will miss out on, but other than that it was so un-motivating and totally filler-centric and was in the way of Cam's becoming a ranger, that I had to skip it. =D

Author's Note Two: Apologize for not updating sooner. I have literally lost the motivation to write these past few days. That and I have ideas for other stories, mostly my Lightning series, I have been having discussions with two different people on certain aspects of the plot, mainly Rebecca and Aliyah, but I have also started planning for a new "What if…" story involving Abby Holloway. More information about this will be posted on my profile soon, so keep a look out.

Disclaimer: No copyright infringement intended in the making of this series. I simply own my OCs and anything that is not recognizable from the show. Power Rangers belongs to Saban...although Ninja Storm was created by Disney. Enjoy.

Shout Outs: I would just like to say a big thank you too: Abby0512x, Twistergirl14, CamaroDude1989, Dark Stormchaser and Nairn1572 for adding this story and/or me to any of their alerts. Appreciate it mates.

Title: The Lost Thunder Ninja

Summary: After learning that the Thunder Academy had been destroyed, sixteen year old Hannah Bradley returns to Reefside, California to search for her brothers, Hunter and Blake. However, during her search she will realize that her greatest mistake will be to give up and her hardest deed will be to hold on.


"No way, dude," said Hunter, shaking his head as he looked around at Shane and Dustin. "There's no way he does it!"

"I dunno, dude, he is pretty strong for a little guy," Dustin shrugged.

Shane hissed at the two.

"Quiet, have a little respect for the master," he told them.

"Now, watch closely, Rangers," Sensei told them, before leaping into the air and smashing the brick with his tiny paw.

The Rangers laughed in astonishment.

"That was radical!" Blake exclaimed.

"You were saying?" Tori asked, smirking at Hunter.

"I stand corrected," Hunter nodded, looking up. "But how?"

"The power comes not from the body," Tori answered, "but from the mind!"

"Correct, Tori," Sensei nodded at his student.

"Alright," Hunter said, clapping his hands. "I'm up!"

"You sure you wanna go there, bro?" Hannah asked, fighting back a grin.

"Hey, if he can do it, I, um... I can give it a shot," Hunter hesitated. Shane smirked and placed a new brick in front of the crimson ranger, patted it and then stepped aside as Hunter took his place.

Hannah and Blake exchanged looks as the others watched Hunter slam the side of his hand down and gasp in pain.

"Looks like Rodent - 1, Thunder Ranger - zip!" Shane laughed, winding his arm around Hannah's shoulder as she nudged him for laughing at her brother's pain.

Hunter glared at him.

"You think you can do better?" he challenged.

Shane heaved out a breath, slid his arm from Hannah's shoulder and motioned for Hunter to get up; the crimson ranger stood and walked away, leaving Shane to take over - and fail. Dustin was next, followed by Blake, Tori, and Hannah, all of which failed in their attempts to break the brick.

Sensei sighed.

"You have come far in your training, Rangers," he told them, "but you still have a long way to go."

"Yeah, but you're like a full on Ninja Master," Dustin pointed out, before whipping around just in time to see Cam slam his hand onto the brick, a crack appeared, travelled straight through the stone and broke it in half.

Hannah laughed.

"Yes! Way to go, Cam!" she cheered.

"Alright," Shane said, interrupting Hannah's celebration, "how did you do that? You used some kind of laser beam thing, didn't you?"

"Or you switched the bricks," said Dustin. "I saw that once at a stunt show at an amusement park - okay, maybe not!" he added quickly, as Cam threw a large chunk of stone at him, and he nearly fell over trying to catch it.

"It's gotta be a trick," said Hunter, shaking his head in disbelief.

Cam sighed and shook his head. "You still don't get, do you?" he said. "Just because someone isn't a Ranger, doesn't make them completely useless..." his gaze travelled to Hannah, who was staring at him with a look of sympathy. "I need some air," he said, shaking his head and walking away.

"Idiot!" Hannah muttered, hitting Hunter in the stomach and hurrying after Cam.

~*Lost Thunder Ninja*~

"You alright?"

"Yeah, i'm just tired of the lack of respect."

"Who says you don't get any respect?"

"Cam, everything we're able to do is because of what you're able to do,"

"It's not enough," Cam sighed. "I wanna be part of it!"

"You want to be a Ranger," Tori nodded.

"Why don't you talk to Sensei?" Hannah asked.

"I have," Cam answered, "but he has forbidden me!"

"Forbidden you?" Tori repeated. "Why?"

"Because of a promise he made a long time ago," Cam explained.

Tori paused and then turned to the boy in green. "Cam, your father just wants what's best for you," she said. "You have to tell him how you feel! Make sure that he understands how important this is to you! He is the most reasonable... well, Guinea Pig, I have ever met!"

"Tori's right," Hannah nodded. "Go talk to him!"

Cam smiled and looked between the two girls. "Alright," he caved, skipping the last of his rocks. "But if he doesn't listen, I'm not cleaning his cage for a month!"

Tori and Hannah laughed.

"C'mon, genius," Hannah smiled, looping her arm through Cam's and turning him away from the lake, however, they hadn't made it more than a few meters from the water's edge when it exploded into the air around them

Spinning around, the three of them came face-to-face with Marah, Kapri, an ugly looking monster creep and a cluster of Kelzacks.

"We hate to break up this greeting card moment," said Kapri.

"But we're here to destroy you," Marah nodded, before pausing and turning to her sister. "Evil enough for you?"

Kapri rolled her eyes. "Whatever! Attack!"

The freaky monster behind her fired an energy beam at the three Ninja's causing Cam to jump one way, and Tori and Hannah to dive the other.

"Back off, geek," Kapri laughed, as Cam made it back to his feet.

Hannah shook her head and clutched Tori's arm as they got back to their feet.

"Hannah!" Shane said, supporting the youngest Bradley as she let go of Tori. "Are you okay?"

"Better now," Hannah nodded.

"I've head of cities coming alive but this is ridiculous!" Dustin said, observing the monster.

"Haha," the monster laughed. "Everyone's a comedian! Are you going to morph, or do I have to beg?"

"You got it!" Shane nodded. "Ready?"

"Ready!"

"Ninja Storm, Ranger Form!"

"Power of Earth,"

"Air,"

"Water!"

"Thunder Storm, Ranger Form!"

"Power of Thunder!"

"Cam," Hunter yelled to the boy genius as Blake and Hannah were divided from him. "Get out of here!"

Cam stubbornly shook his head. "No way, I can help!" he said, as the Kelzacks attacked him.

"Whoa!" Hannah squealed as she took a hit to the stomach, one that flipped her over backwards and caused her to land on top of Tori, who had already hit the ground. "Oh, dude, I am so sorry!"

"It's okay," Tori said, as Hannah rolled off of her.

"Girls," Shane and Blake said, landing beside the two females and helping them back to their feet. Dustin and Hunter joined them seconds later, after being thrown through the air by the space monster, and causing the whole team to hit the floor once more.

The monster laughed at their domino effect, before Marah aimed her staff at them and caused the ground beneath their feet to explode, throwing the rangers into the air like rag dolls.

"Now for the draining event," the monster growled, opening the top of the container he had with him. There was a bright white light that emitted from the inside, and instantly Hannah felt her energy escape from her body.

Hitting the ground beside Hunter, Hannah rested her head on his stomach as his arm wound around her shoulders.

"You guys are looking a little pale," Kapri teased.

"You should try a little make-up," Marah gushed. "I have these colour charts that would totally match your skin tone!"

"And end up looking like you?" Hannah rasped. "I'll pass!"

Marah glared at her, before there was a flash of white and the two sisters, the monster and Kelzacks disappeared.

"Are you guys okay?" Cam asked, rushing forward and helped Dustin stand, behind the yellow ranger he sought out Hannah, who was leaning against Hunter.

"I feel like I just rode a 45 minute moto on a Tricycle!" Dustin groaned.

"We better yet you back to Ops," Cam said, directing them back to the underground headquarters.

~*Lost Thunder Ninja*~

"Man that guy worked us," Shane said, groggily. "What happened out there?"

"Madtropolis drained your ranger energy force," Cam explained. "If you go out and fight again, there is a good chance you won't come back."

"Dude, that's harsh," Dustin whined.

"This is grave news," Sensei sighed, from the main frame. "We must find a way to retrieve your powers."

Tori looked up as the computer screen changed to show the monster with the ball containing their powers.

"Look, there he is," she managed to say.

"Alright, it's go time," said Shane.

"You can barely stand, Shane," said Cam, pushing the red ranger back down into the chair.

"Look, i'm not going to just sit here while that freak is loose," Shane growled, as the others started to get to their feet.

"Me neither," Tori agreed, pushing herself up from the table.

Hunter moved to follow her, jostling Hannah who had been lying against him. The amber ranger whined at the sudden movement and topped sideways off of the table. "Ow..." she complained extending her hands into the air. "Someone help!" she said, smiling as Cam appeared in her line of vision and pulled her back up.

"Alright," the boy genius said, once Hannah was standing. "Let me adjust your morphers. I'll be able to give you a 10% increase in energy, but be warned, it won't last."

Hannah looked down as her morpher glowed a bright amber, she smiled and looked up at the others, as she felt her energy brighten somewhat. "Anyone up for a little game of piggy in the middle?" she smirked.

~*Lost Thunder Ninja*~

"And now to blast these ranger powers out of existence," Madtropolis growled.

There was a red blur and the sphere disappeared from its perch. Madtropolis turned just as the rangers arrived behind him, Shane clutching the sphere.

"Sorry, but we're here to snuff out your plan!" the red ranger said.

"Hey, that's mine!" Madtropolis growled. "I stole from you fair and square!"

He shot lasers at the rangers, causing them to disperse. Shane, grabbing Hannah's hand, jumped over Madtropolis and started running deeper into the building, the monster right on their tail.

Suddenly Metropolis disappeared, before reappearing behind Hannah and pulling her away from the red ranger.

"Shane!"

"Let her go!" Shane yelled, spinning around, just in time to catch the amber ranger as Madtropolis tossed her back him. "Are you okay?"

Hannah nodded, before she was thrown into the air as Madtropolis fired laser beams at her and Shane, sending them flying onto the ground.

"Shane! Come in! You've got to conserve energy!"

"Easier said than done!" Hannah whined her grip tightened on Shane's arm as they got unsteadily back to their feet.

"Now, give that back!" Metropolis growled.

"We're taking the ball and going home!" Shane said.

The monster growled. "That's what you think!"

All lights in the warehouse distinguished as every became black.

"Oh man! I got a bad feeling about this!" Shane said, and securing his arm around Hannah's waist, he turned to glance around him. Everywhere he turned there was total darkness. "See anything?"

"Yeah," Hannah nodded. "Thunder staff! Mega power!"

Her staff grew bigger and she slashed at the monster charging towards them, however, she screamed as her brothers flipped over backwards away from her the second her staff connected with the monsters' body.

"Hunter! Blake!" she cried, falling to her knees beside them. "I am so sorry! I thought you were that freak!"

"It's okay," Hunter reassured her. "We thought you were that freak too!"

"This place is totally crazy," Blake said. "Watch your back!"

"I have her back," Shane said, causing Hannah to grin behind her helmet. Hunter's hand tightened around her wrist causing the grin to fall and a frown to replace it.

Just then Tori and Dustin appeared.

"You're toast, Madtropolis" Dustin said, firing lasers from his Ninja Sword at the group of four.

"Dustin!" Shane yelled. "What are you doing?"

He groaned as Dustin's Ninja sword slashed across his back, as the Yellow ranger overtook him and started to attach Hunter and Blake, leaving Hannah and Shane to fight off Tori.

"You can't fool me," Tori snarled. "You're going down!"

"Tori no wait!" Shane struggled.

Hannah growled and rolled in front of Shane, she pushed up with her Ninja sword and swept Tori's feet out from underneath her, knocking the blue ranger backwards into Dustin.

"Dustin!" Tori yelped looking up at the four Metropolis's that towered over them.

"Whoa," Dustin breathed, as the four monsters turned into their friends. "Tell me you saw that?"

"I saw it," Tori nodded. "But I don't know what I saw!"

"What's the matter?" Madtropolis asked, appearing before them, smirking. "Can't tell what's real and what's not?"

"We've had enough of your mind games!" Shane yelled defiantly, they all re-grouped.

"Aw, you're not fun! I'm just getting started!"

Madtropolis disappeared once more.

"Shane!" Hannah said, as the red ranger pulled away from her and run forward, he stopped and turned back at the sound of her voice but found himself face-to-face with a monstrous Madtropolis.

"Aw man!" Shane complained, as four more appeared around him. One growled and attempted to attack him. "This has gotta be him!" he said, slashing down and knocking Dustin off of his feet! "Dustin! I don't know what to do!"

Shane, listen to me carefully.

"Sensei?"

You must trust your heart. Your eyes will deceive you. Concentrate and your inner ninja will tell you what is real and what is not.

"I'll try, Sensei," Shane nodded, lowering his sword as his visor snapped open. He closed his eyes and concentrated as six monsters crowded around him; Shane opened his eyes, aimed his sword at a monster to his right, and fired.

As soon as the monster hit the ground, the Rangers were returned to reality.

"I can't take much more!" Tori complained.

"Power boost must be wearing off," Shane said, groaning and dropping to his knees.

"Shane!" Tori and Dustin yelled placing their hands on his shoulders and back as the others dropped to their knees around them.

"I'm crashing!" Hunter complained.

"Me too," Blake agreed.

"This is worse than an ice-cream headache!" Hannah complained.

"Thanks," Tori said. "Now i'm hungry on top of everything else!"

"Now for the last time, give that back!" Madtropolis demanded, appearing in front of them.

"So, let me get this straight?" Shane asked, getting unsteadily to his feet. "We're just supposed to hand this over? With all our ranger powers inside? That's never going to happen! Come on guys!" he said forcefully and they each removed their weapons, and connected them together.

"Thunderstorm Canon!"

"Thunder Bow!"

"But which one of me is real?" Metropolis asked.

"There is one way to find out!" Hannah said unleashing a flurry of arrows, one after another at the monsters, until only one resided. "And Bingo was name!" she grinned.

"Nice one, Hannah!"

The amber ranger nodded as Madtropolis snarled and her and leapt through the air, however, before he could reach his target, an energy beam ripped through him and he exploded, showering little gold flecks down on the amber ranger.

"That was -" Hannah started, before cutting off as Madtropolis returned, this time bigger than ever. "Aw crap!"

"I'm scraping the skies," Madtropolis growled. "End of the road rangers!"

"Ready, Shane?" Dustin asked.

Shane nodded. "Yeah!"

He handed the sphere over to his yellow friend, and raised his Ninja sword, slashing it down on the sphere. Sparks flew but the sphere remained closed.

"I can't open it!" Shane complained.

"We don't have time to figure it out," Hunter said, stepping up. "We've got to stop him!"

"Yeah," Hannah and Tori nodded.

"Cam, we need the Megazord!" Shane said into his morpher.

"You'll never make it through a Megazord fight!" Cam answered.

"But we have no choice!" Hannah said, appearing at Shane's shoulder and looking down at his morpher, acting as if it was a two way mirror and she could see Cam who was, subsequently, back at Ninja Ops.

"Okay, do what you gotta do," Cam said, although there were traces of concern and fear in his voice. "But we've gotta get that Sphere back to Ninja Ops."

"Okay,"

"I've been working on a new teleportation system. I hope it's ready."

Everyone directed their attention towards the sphere as it disappeared from Dustin's hands, and seconds later the Zords arrived. Taking to their respective zords, but ended up failing, badly, before Cam's voice returned to their intercoms.

"Cam, please tell me you have a way to help us!" Hannah said.

"I'm sending you some protection," Cam answered. "It's all you can handle right now."

"And the sphere?"

"I have it!"

Hannah nodded.

"Thanks, Cam," said Shane after a brief pause and Hannah could only guess that the boy genius had sent the power disk to him. "We'll take all the help we can get!"

The Power dis was locked and dropped and seconds later a scar, with the Wind Academy sign popped out of a red sphere.

"A scar?" Hannah exclaimed. "What's that gonna do?"

"Just go with it!"

"If you say so," Shane answered, waving the scarf around, blocking the laser beams that were directed at them. As the Thunder Megazord ducked behind the Wind Megazord, Shane threw the scarf at the monster, causing it to swirl around him and then return; the red ranger then waved it in front of the two Megazords, causing them to disappear.

"It's going to take more than a giant hanky to fool me," Madtropolis said, firing several more rounds of lasers at the spot where the rangers had disappeared. The ground below them ignited with flames as the Megazords reappeared, sparks exploding from the exterior.

"The heat!" Hannah yelped. "It's hot... dude it is like Africa hot! I don't have the strength to fight it!"

With rapid explosions occurring all over the outside of the Megazord, the six rangers were ejected and sent crashing back to the ground, where they landed with heavy thuds, their suits falling away seconds after they hit solid earth.

"Now, say goodbye Rangers," Madtropolis snarled, aiming his giant hand at the six defiant teens, each of which prepared themselves for the inevitable... however, the inevitable destruction that was close at hand did not come, as instantaneously Madtropolis froze, hand outstretched ready to squash the six rangers, that had also frozen in time.
