"Tell me." Tiana said.

She stood across from Alex who nervously played with his jacket zipper.

"Did you hurt Madison?" Tiana asked.

"Do you think I'm possible of hurting anybody?" Alex asked.

Tiana sighed. She knew Alex was a nonviolent person. Considering her last boyfriend was an abusive psychopath he's a great step up.

"Alex tell me the truth."Tiana said.

"I love you." He said.

Tiana was taken back. How could that one little word throw her off. That one word had so much power. She wanted to say it back. But she wasn't sure if she loved him or if she felt the need to because he said it.

"That's why I've kept this from you." Alex sighed. "Your brother is the one who burned Madison's house down. I went to Madison's to talk about some victims from a deamon attack. I thought she could heal her. She texted me that she already left however I later learned this was Trevor. When I got there I saw your brother walked in. I followed him and that's where I dropped the phone. Next thing I know the house was on fire." Alex felt tears stream down his face.

"I didn't know Madison was still inside. I called 911 and went to school trying to pretend everything was fine. I didn't want you to find out about your brother after everything you've been through this year. I'm sorry."

Tiana was shocked. At first she was numb. Her brother did this? A small part of her was relieved Alex didn't. But that victory was shorter than short.

"Please say something." Alex said.

Tiana hugged him. She placed her head on his shoulder. They sat that way for several minutes.

"We need to tell Madison and the cops." Tiana said.

"He's your brother." Alex said.

"Madison's my friend." Tiana said.

Their conversation was interupted by their alarm going off. They looked at each other and got up.

"Defenders!" They yelled.

They morphed and teleported.

Josie grunted as a glowing blade met her daggers. She was currently fight a monster made of steel.

"You shall fall to Lord Magnetism." He roared.

His metallic arms transformed into axes at slashed at Josie. Josie rolled to side and yelped. Before she knew it his fist transformed into a hammer and clocked her in the head. She groaned as she flew into a car. Luckily her helmet absorbed the impact.

"You hit like a girl." Josie groaned.

She leaped up in the air and punched him in the face. Luckily her ranger armour added force. Enough force to throw him through the window.

Lord Magnetism got back up but before he could attack a car was thrown at him. Josie looked and was excited to see Tiana throw cars like darts using her telekinesis. Alex and Calev charged with their weapons. Calev tripped him with the staff, while Alex lit his scimitar on fire and sliced through the metal body.

Lord Magnetism hissed in anger. His body reassembled.

"You pesky little rangers." He hissed.

"I know silly us for trying to be good people and do the right thing." Jaxon said as he sliced with his scythe.

Metallic spikes shot out of his his body and launched at them. Jaxon grunted as he wrapped his force field around them.

"I'm tired of this clown. Tiana pin him down while I'll freeze him." Alex said.

Tiana clenched her fists together and slammed Lord Magnetism into the wall with her mind. Alex leaped up in the air and froze the monster from the head down. He hissed.

"Apocalypse is making these monsters weaker and weaker each time." Alex grinned.

Lord Magnetism hissed. "He shall kill you. He won't stop until he has your dead body."

"I'd like to see him try." Alex hissed.

"He's coming for your horsemen. His traitor has been feeding him information for a long time." Alex frowned.

Everyone looked shock to see their was a traitor among them. Except for Calev. Alex turned to him.

"You knew." Alex said.

"He's psyhic of course he knew." Josie frowned.

"Who is it?" Madison asked.

"I don't know." Calev said.

"How do we know you're not the traitor?" Jaxon asked. "Tell them about baby."

"What are you talking about?" Tiana asked.

Everyone looked at Calev and he sighed. "Madisons' baby. If it's a girl it grows up to be a dictator that kills us all and enslaves humanity. And if it's a boy Apocalyspe uses him as a power source to wipe out the planet."

Madison began to cry. "How could you keep this from ME! This is my child!"

"There's more. In one of the futures I seen Tiana was president and Josie...she was the traitor." Calev said.

"So it was you!" Madison said she turned to Josie who growled.

"I'm not the traitor. Besides Calev is the one keeping secrets from us. Think about it he's psychic he'll always be a step ahead." Josie said.

"Look in my aura, do you sense any deception?" Calev asked.

"Z betrayed us once maybe it's her." Jaxon said.

TIana frowned. "It's not Z."

"Everyone shut up! This is what Apocalypse wants. Us fighting." Alex said.


Gondu frowned as he looked at the monitor. Master Famine noticed this and walked over.

"Problem Gondu?" He asked.

"It's strange. Apocalypse and his monsters always know where we are, know everything about the rangers."

"Are you suggesting a traitor? Z did use to give them information." Master Famine said.

"But their still getting their information. And Apocalypse knows things the rangers would never tell anyone...anyone but you. A trusting leader." Gondu said.

Master Famine hissed. "Careful what you are insinuating."

"The rangers report their where about to you. You feed this to Apocalypse. You told him their back stories, the reason why you don't want me to see my parents is because you aren't really my master. I'm your hostage." Gondu said. "You don't want me to learn magic because you think I will turn against you."

"Silence." Master Famine hissed.

"Explosivo found the base because you told him where it was. That story you told us about you turning against him was a lie. You were always a Horsemen." Gondu sighed.

Master Famine growled. "You were always to smart for your own good. Everything I've done I did for you."

"What about us." Madison said from behind them.

Master Famine turned to see the rangers.

"You bastard." Calev hissed.

"You were the one that made me hallucinate about killing Owen." Josie said (This was a couple chapters ago)

"Why? Why would you betray your family?" Madison asked.

"You are not my family." Master Famine said.

Master Famine released an energy blast that threw Alec and Jaxon into the wall. Tiana charged but Master Famine snapped his fingers and caused her to sink into the ground.

She screamed. Josie held up her daggers and they transformed into snakes. They wrapped around her. She screamed and fell backwards.

Calev stood in front of Madison.

"Stay away from her." Calev warned.

Master Famine flicked his wrists and Calev passed out. Madison screamed. She soon felt a rumble in her stomach. She could understand what the baby was trying to say.

She looked up at Master Famine. "The baby dosen't like you."

The blade Master Famine held turned to dust. He screamed as black veins surged through his body. Master Famine screamed as his body turned into dust. Orange energy left his body as he turned to dust.

Everyone groaned as they got back up.

"You killed him." Alex sad.

"The baby did. It communicated with me somehow." Madison said.

"How can a baby talk from the womb?" Tiana asked.

"And if it can kill a wizard from the womb imagine what it can do when it's older." Jaxon gulped.

"I can't believe Master Famine was the traitor." Calev said.

Tiana sighed. "Sometimes people hurt people they care about."

"We trusted him." Madison frowned.

"That's why he did." Josie frowned.

"The power of the horsemen of Famine is out there and we don't have a leader." Madison said.

"Ahem." Alex said.

"You know what I mean."
