"Are you alright Lexi?" Kapri asked.

"I... don't know." Lexi whispered clutching her head; "It... hurts."

"What hurts?" Marah quizzed.

"My head. It's about to fall off." Lexi groaned. The good inside her had pushed down temporarily by the evil, and she decided she was ready to go; "I have to go kill some Ranger now."

"Why is she in control of her bike when the rest of you get yours when Cam decides to send them out?" Blake wondered.

"She's the bike tech, not me. She made the bikes and I just programmed their bluprints on CDs." Cam shrugged; "It's hers."

"Speaking of Lexi, what're we supposed to do?" Tori sighed; "It's not like she's going to give up."

"Maybe we can remind her what friends are for." Shane smiled, putting his arms around Tori and Dustin; "All I know is we have to help her."

"And we'll do whatever it takes." Hunter nodded.
Cyber Cam watched the screen; "Well here's your chance to do it. Orange Wind Ranger at the Quarry."

"You guys ready to try this?" Cam asked them, receiving nods as answers.

"We've been ready." Tori smiled.

"Ninja Storm! Ranger Form! HA!"

"Thunder Storm! Ranger Form! HA!"

"Samurai Storm! Ranger Form! HA!"

"Ninja Ranger Power!"

They streaked over to the Quarry to see that it was a bit too late. Lexi, accompanied by her monster friend stood in front of them, weapons wielded. The monster attacked most of them immediately, leaving Hunter wide open. So Lexi went after him, bringing him high into the air.

"Lexi! Don't let the evil win! You are a good person and you always were. Just look deep down." Hunter begged.

"It's too late to help me Hunter." she whispered; "If I don't destroy you he will kill me."

"This isn't the Lexi I know. She isn't afraid of anything." Hunter said, clinging on to her suit.

"Then I guess I change Hunter." Lexi snapped. But again she couldn't hurt him. She streaked closer to the ground, dropping him and running to help the monsters defeat the others. She brought them all down and turned to the monster; "Get lost. They're mine. "

"Yes madam." The monster said, disappearing.

"Your attempts to help me were feeble. This is your last battle Rangers, adios." Lexi scowled. She thrust her hands out at her hands and they started flaming; "I really suggest you make it count."

"If you really are going to destroy us, destroy Hunter first." Tori grinned knowingly.

"Tor!" Blake shouted furiously: how dare she just give up his brother.

"Good idea Tori." Cam nodded; "What're you waiting for? Destroy Hunter."

"What's wrong Lex? Too scared or something?" Blake asked, finally understanding heir plan.

"Fine! I will!" Lexi growled. She lunged at Hunter but he grabbed her by the arm and held her still.

"Calm down Lex." Hunter said into her ear.

"I don't think so!" she snapped. She grabbed Hunter by the arm, flipping him over. She took her blaster out and aimed for him while looking at the others. When she looked down she froze. She had a blaster pointed at one of her best friends. She wasn't a Ranger, she was a monster. She dropped the blaster by Hunter's head, backing away slowly; "I'm so sorry..."

She wasn't paying attention, but the other three Wind Rangers formed the Storm Striker; "Fire!"

Lexi rolled put of the way, only getting the blast of the aftershock; "This is the end!"

"No it isn't!" Blake growled. He came up from behind with his antlers to shock her.

Her suit fell to the ground empty. Lexi came back out, blasting Shane down followed by Blake and Tori.

"Hey Dustin. What kind of apple isn't an apple?" Lexi grinned, hitting him with her sword; "A pineapple!"

"Not cool, you didn't even give me time to think!" Dustin grumbled.

"Lexi, you have to stop!" Cam frowned; "What would your mom say to this?"

"Which mom? First or second?" Lexi shot.

"Do you think anyone wants their children to be evil? Besides dumb evil villains like Lothor." Tori snapped from the floor.

"Snap out of this Lex!" Hunter plead. As if her mind agreed, Lexi doubled over clutching her head. The war between good and evil was going on, making it hard for her to focus on the battle.

"She will do as told and destroy the Rangers!" an evil voice hissed.

"No! She will do what she was raised to do, protect the innocent!" a good voice countered.

"She is evil! She will never break free, now destroy them!" the evil voice commanded.

"No, listen to your friends. You are a good person! The spell is just a mere distraction to draw you away." the good voice soothed; "You know the truth! You are good! You were always good!"

"Ahhhhh" Lexi screamed, startling the others; "I am not evil! They can't make me kill my friends!"

"Lexi!" Tori yelled,, trying to get the girl to calm down; "It's okay! We know you're not evil!"

"Stop telling me to kill my friends!" she screamed anyway; "I won't do it! Shut up, shut up, shut up!"

Lexi demorphed and everyone saw her face completely red and streaming with tears. She stopped crying for a second, whistling for her tsunami cycle and riding off.

"Shouldn't we follow her?" Dustin asked his teammates.

"I'll go see if she's okay." Hunter nodded. Blake chuckled, knowing this would happen.

Hunter tried following Lexi, but he couldn't because she just disappeared. He turned his communicator on; "She's gone."

"And you're sure she just disappeared?" Tori asked.

"Yeah, it was as if she went into thin air." Hunter shrugged.

"I highly doubt that statement." Sensei shook his head; "Lexi must have used the Ninja Red Eye."

"Probably, but why would she just turn her communicator off?" Cam wondered.

"Who knows, maybe she's giving up." Shane smirked.

"Lexi doesn't give up like that Shane." Dustin frowned; "She probably has another idea."

"Look, the Monkeyzord." Blake said, pointing to the screen. The Monkeyzord was walking around looking for something, but no one was inside; "What's it doing?"

"I think it's looking for Lexi." Tori gaped; "It must know something's wrong."

"Can't you tell it to calm down?" Shane asked Cam.

"The only one who can calm him down is Lexi." Cam replied; "I couldn't even if I wanted to."

"Well then we'd better start looking for her too." Hunter told them.

"But then who's going to take care of that monster thing?" Dustin asked. The monster was back in the city, trying to hurt the Monkeyzord.

"Right, we'd better go stop it before any damage comes to the zord." Cam agreed; "Hunter, you can go look for Lexi if you want."

"How do I know where to look?" Hunter asked.

"I think I have the answer to that." Cyber Cam smiled; "I tracked her signature to a small cliff near Reefside."

"Good luck Hunter." Shane said to him as he streaked off.

Lexi stood on the hill, clutching her head; "Shut up! I'll jump before I ever do anything else to hurt them!"

"Just do it and then we will leave you alone." the evil voice commanded.

"Never!" Lexi screamed.

"Resist it!" the good voice told her; "Don't hurt those who care for you even more than you did already. And don't jump sweetie, it isn't the answer."

"Shut up! Leave me alone!" Lexi said, focusing on breaking the spell; "I am Lexi Fernandez, Orange Wind Ranger. I am a professional BMX rider. Martial Arts is my life. I do not have a family, and I am not evil!"

After a couple more moments of stabbing pain, it ended, and Lexi knew the good side had won. She opened her eyes slowly, and let go of her head; "Is it gone?"

She finally noticed that she was being watched by Hunter. He approached her; "Are you alright Lexi?"

Lexi was thoughtful for a moment, breaking out into a smile; "I broke the spell!"

"Are you alright Lex?" Hunter asked; "About the Lothor thing?"

"I feel awful. I hurt you guys. I can't believe I turned into the monster my father is." Lexi frowned; "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to do any of it, I promise."

"Don't cry." he said, grabbing her in a hug; "We'd all be fine just to have you back on our side."

"Yo Hunter, we need help over here!" Blake yelled to Hunter.

"We can talk about this later, you coming or no?" Hunter asked, letting go of Lexi.

"You go, I'll meet you there." Lexi said. He waited for a moment. Lexi turned back to the cliff, the one her brother was pushed off of. The one she almost jumped when she was only fourteen. She smiled inwardly, thanking Hunter for finding her before she tried again.

Hunter streaked in, slashing at the Monster with his Thunderstaff. The monster grabbed the staff, flipping him backwards onto his friends before blasting at them all, demorphing them; "This was too easy!"

He got ready to blast them again, but wasn't able to as an Orange blurr streaked from infront of him, pulling him into the air as she kept kicking and slashing him back. She kicked him away before taking up a defensive position in front of her team.

"I thought you were my friend Lady!" it grumbled.

"Sorry, I don't do evil!" Lexi growled, taking out her blaster and aiming for him. She fired at him, and as soon as it hit, she ran forward with her sword. She slashed at him until she saw sparks. She then ran back to her friends; "You guys okay?"

"Lex? But I thought-" Shane began.

"I'll explain later alright? Right now just stay down." Lexi instructed. Her hands began flaming and she threw fire at the monster, destroying it.

"Scroll of empowerment! Descend!"

"Hey there Monkey! You ready to end this?" Lexi called into her morpher. The Monkeyzord bounced its way over to Lexi, making it look like a dog. Lexi leapt out of the Monkeyzord after defeating the monster. She ran to check up on the others; "Are you guys alright?"

"I don't feel my limbs." Blake groaned.

"Hey Cyber Cam, you mind teleporting us back to Ops?" Lexi asked.

"Ugh. More work. Fine, teleportation device activated." Cyber Cam sighed.

They all teleported to Ops and Lexi was the only one standing; "Can't believe you guys went down that easy."

"Well maybe that's because fighting you took up our energy." Shane snapped.

"Well I'm sorry my dad made Fragra kidnap me and turned me evil." Lexi retorted. Despite all of the anger they had towards each other, Lexi pushed it away as she tended to their wounds; "Good thing is none of you have anything very dangerous. Just take it easy for a few days."

"What happened anyway Lex?" Dustin asked.

"When I was watching you guys race with Cyber Cam I almost lost it. So I snuck away. I was too busy thinking about how much I hated the fake Can that I hadn't noticed Fragra came behind me. She took me into one of her bottle things and passed me over to Kapri, who took me to my father." Lexi explained; "They use some kind of ray or something to hit me and then I became evil. He told me to either you all or else. I never meant to hurt anyone I swear. "

"No worries Lex we believe you." Tori giggled; "I'm just glad we don't have to deal with the evil you anymore."

"Yeah, I never knew you were that tough Lex." Blake nodded.

"Sorry." Lexi frowned.

"Hey, why are you beating yourself up over this for?" Shane asked, finally smiling; "It's not like it could have gone any different."

"My dad's evil." Lexi said, looking at the floor; "He made me evil."

"He isn't your father Lexi." Sensei shook his head; "The one who gave birth to you was your mother, and your father was banished much before they met. You have no father."

"Gee, thanks." Lexi said sarcastically, but she knew he meant well; "Thanks for helping me you guys."

"It was all Hunter's doing." Dustin blurted, Lexi shot him a confused look.

"When we saw the way you two were looking at each other in battle we knew you had a thing for each other." Tori explained, a hint of laughter in her voice.

"We do?" Lexi asked, looking at Hunter.

"I have no idea what they're saying." Hunter shrugged; "I think they're high or something."

"You're still in denial?" Tori laughed; "C'mon you know it's true."

"As true as how much you love Blake? Without knowing that he loves you the same way?" Lexi shot, she then thought about what she said; "Oh wait."

"Well this is awkward." Cam smirked.

"You said it." Shane nodded.

"You know, I have no problem with setting your hair and clothes on fire and watching you turn into ash." Lexi glared at them; "After I learn how to do it."

"You are way too violent." Hunter sighed.

"Well duhh!" Lexi smiled.

"Definately chemistry." Tori grinned.

"Hey Tor, remember you told me the other day how cute Blake is?" Lexi asked, making Tori and Blake freeze and the others laugh; "You two seriously gotta get over the awkward phaze of your friendship and just go out."

"Okay, its time to go Lex." Tori said, grabbing Lexi by the arm and pulling her out.

"I win." Lexi smiled happily, as she walked out; "Later guys!"

The guys chuckled watching as Lexi flipped out of Tori's grasp and disappeared up the exit.
