Sorry for not posting sooner... my family had kept me busy all afternoon...

Anyway... the Disclaimer...

Disclaimer: I do not own Power Rangers Ninja Storm or it's characters, or the songs in this chapter. all I own is Celea and a few other OCs... and the Academy she goes to, and it's moves.


Celea

"That's one ugly mutt." I murmured.

"Man, the leash laws in this town need some serious work." Hunter agreed.

"You guys better get out there." Cam noted, "Before it decides to make the federal building into a chow toy."

We nodded in agreement and turned around. "Ready?" Shane called out.

"Ready!" We nodded.

"Ninja Storm!"

"Thunder Storm!"

"Moonlit Storm!"

"Ranger Form! Ha!" Once we were all morphed we called out, "Power of..."

"Water!"

"Earth!"

"Air!"

"Moonlight!"

"Power of Thunder!"

Cam called the Zords and we all quickly got into them, and formed our Megazords, with me combining with the Thunder's.

Once we got to close to where that freaky-wolf was, I smirked, "Let's pound this hound!"

"Right!"

"Yeah!"

"Let's do it!"

We tried to attack it, but it dodged each one, and instead struck us, causing sparks to fly into our cockpits.

Finally Shane called out, "Hunter! Celea! Minizord Formation!"

"Good call, Shane!" We agreed.

"Power Disk, Locked!" I put the disk into the slot, "And Dropped!"

"Rangers Forming the Lunar Thunderstorm Megazord! Wind Power, Lunar Power, And Thunder Power unite!" It exclaimed before our Megazords combined. The Wolf monster growled when we finished.

"That's right Fleabag! We've got something for you!" Shane called out.

"Flood Laser attack!" We all yelled.

The... well... flood of lasers struck the monster, and caused a huge explosion.

"Yeah!" I cheered and leaned back in my chair.

The only thing was... the Wolf monster was still standing!

"You've got to be kidding!"

"What?!"

"No!..."

"...Possible!..."

"...Way..."

"...Is this happening!"

"This can't be happening!" I shook my head in dismay.

The Wolfblade jumped into the air, and threw out Megazord to the ground. We all yelling in pain, as our cockpits sparked.

Right as the Wolfblade was about to attack us, again, we disappeared.

And reappeared in Ninja Ops. "Power Down!" We touched our morphers and demorphed.

I breathed heavily, "I... hate... wolves!"

Hunter and Blake nodded, "Agreed."

"Okay... listen up everybody." Cam got our attention, "The Zords should be back online by tomorrow at the latest... but we're gonna need reinforcements."

"Well.. I'm open to any suggestions on how to deal with these freaks..." Shane shrugged.

Blake, Tori and Dustin, bit their lips and wouldn't meet my eyes.

"Guys... what's up?" I raised a brow at them.

"Nothing!" Blake answered, his eyes wide.

"Nothing at all!" Tori held up her hands.

"Not like Ty could help again!" Dustin revealed, and the other two hit their heads.

"Ty... did... WHAT?!" My mouth fell open.

Blake sighed, "You know how Ty was able to control us... his eyes turning brown and all?"

"Yes...?" We nodded, shivering at the memory.

"He did the same thing to the Wolfblades when we were fighting them on the ground." Tori continued.

I raised a brow then smiled sadly, "He does like making others fight for him."

"I will see to it that Ty is brought here to help." Sensei agreed.

"I have another." Cam got our attention again and looked over at his dad, "Dad, I think this is a pretty clear case of 'Emergency'."

"Say no more, Cam." Sensei nodded, as the door his was in front of opened, "You have my permission."

"We're finally gonna get to see what the big deal is!" Blake smiled at the thought.

"Anyone wanna take bets?" Hunter requested as Cam went to open it.

"It's gotta be some... really old sword." Shane figured.

"Or a really powerful bow with awesome arrows!" I smirked at the idea.

"Or a cool fighting staff!" Blake gave his two cents.

Cam walked over to the table with a small box, "We'll see."

He opened the box and all of our smiles fell. "Joy..." I grumbled.

"Just we needed... another ancient scroll." Tori frowned as Cam took the large rolled up scroll out of the box.

"Hey... Cam... I just wanted to ask-"

"Shh!" Cam shushed Shane as he looked over the scroll.

"Okay... well... maybe we'll just leave you alone..." He decided instead.

"So what do we do while we wait for the dog pound?" Blake looked over at Sensei.

"Be strong, and stay alert." The Guiana Pig answered.

"Let's go dude." Hunter tapped his brother's shoulder, causing us to look at him with raised brows, "We've... just... got something to take care of."

"They're kidding right?" Shane looked at me, to which I shrugged.

"Call if you need us!" Blake told us as they left.

I looked over at the others, "I've gotta go tell Ty... call me when you find them."

Tori and Shane nodded as I headed out of Ops.

1 hour later...

When I stopped, I saw the one person I wanted to, "Ty! Hey."

"What's up?" He raised a brow while we walked into the Storm Chargers.

I looked around before I whispered in his ear, "We're gonna need your help at Ops... think you wanna go?"

He nodded, "Sure thing... anything to get rid of those rabid rejects."

I smirked and nodded before my phone went off and I checked the ID to see that it was Shane. "Good thing I came to watch some sports since I don't work today..." I grumbled before I answered, walking out, "Yeah Shane?"

"Found them... wanna see what they're 'secret talent' is?"

"Oh yeah." I smirked before I headed for the alley, "Where are you?"

"Studio downtown."

"Got it, on my way." I nodded before I hung up and Ninja Ran over to said studio.

Tori, Shane and I hid behind a wall while I glanced over and saw the brothers walking into a room.

"I feel kind of guilty... spying on them like this." Tori noted she looked over the side when the door closed. Shane and I moved around her and smirked.

I patted her shoulder, "All's fair in love and show biz."

"I gotta go check out what they're doing for 'Totally Talented', come on." Shane beckoned us to follow. And we were about to... when we heard thunder and quickly turned around nervously.

"You guys lost?" It was Blake and Hunter, who had their arms folded, and were smirking at us.

"Hey... hey." Shane smiled weakly.

"Uh.. I hate it when you guys do that." I informed them.

Blake shook his head while Hunter smirked, "You guys need any help?"

"Uh... um... well..." Tori tried, "We were just in the... area... and..."

"Tori, you're such a bad liar." Blake noted.

"And you Celea?" Hunter frowned.

"Well... I was... just... walking by... you know, clearing my head for some ideas and..." Great... now I've got nothing!

"Cel... don't you try lying." Hunter continued to smirk. I smiled sheepishly.

Shane's morpher when off and I praised the heavens for it. "Go for Shane."

"Shane, you and the other rangers must come to Ninja Ops right away." Came Cam's voice.

"On it." Shane nodded before all five of us ran off.

1 hour later...

Cam was holding out his hand after he explained what he needed us to do.

"Let me get this straight," I blinked, "You want what?"

"Your Power Disk." Ty answered.

"I know I'm the slow one but... doesn't that mean we'll have no power?" Dustin frowned.

"Yes, but... only until I return." Cam answered.

"Yeah, I don't know if that's such a great idea." Blake countered.

"Yeah, I kinda like knowing I could kick some Space Ninja butt," I hit Hunter's side for that, "If I have to."

"I understand your hesitation, Rangers." Sensei moved his house over to us, "But it is the only way."

"How's giving up our Power Disk help us to defeat Shimazu?" Shane frowned.

"To defeat his Wolfblades, we must open a portal to the Ancient World." Sensei answered, "Your seven Power Disk are the only entity powerful enough to do that."

"Yo." We looked to see Cyber Cam walking in, holding the scroll.

"Look, if anything happens, Cyber Cam and Ty can activate the Zords." Cam sighed, "You can still operate them, you'll just be in civilian form."

I groaned, "Okay... I can't believe I'm doing this..." I took my Power Disk and put it in Cam's hand. Hunter frowned, and did the same, then Blake, then Tori, then Dustin, and finally Shane.

"Alright..." The Red Ranger looked at out Green Ranger friend, "We'll be ready."

"Well, wish me luck." Cam nodded before he turned and activated his morpher, "Samurai Storm! Ranger Form! Hyah!" Once he was morphed he called out, "Green Samurai Power!"

He headed out and we were forced to watch from the Console.

"He'll be okay... right?"

'I'm sure he will.' Hunter put his hand on my shoulder.

"I've got the coordinates and I should be in range soon... stay on alert Rangers." Cam called through.

We watched right as the Samurai Chopper went down and we gasped. "Cam!"

"We have to help him!" I decided.

"Uh, hello, anyone notice a three-headed dog on the loose?" Cyber questioned as we walked out of Ops.

"You know, you really need an attitude adjustment." Blake noted before I grabbed his arm.

"It's not in my programing." He shrugged.

"Is sending the Zords in your programing?" I grabbed Hunter's arm for that too.

"Right." Cyber nodded and headed over to the console with Ty.

"Let's go." I dragged them out of the Ops.

Hunter

10 minutes later..

"Alright." Shane's voice called through my Morpher, "Without our Powers, we can't take any direct hits."

"Is that supposed to cheer us up?" The girls scuffed, "Cause it's not working."

"Just be careful." Shane instructed.

"You heard him, Cel." I agreed.

'Careful, is my middle name.' She reasoned.

"I thought you'd agree not to say that again?" I rolled my eyes.

"How 'bout we just blow this thing away and go home?" Dustin advised.

Dustin moved his Zord in front of the thing, spinning a bunch of air at it that made it fall back a bit.

Tori flew at it, "Over here in the flying fish!" She struck it and forced it back a bit more.

Cel moved her zord over to Blake and I, as we moved closer, "Let's go, boys!"

"No need to tell us twice." Blake smirked as he looked at the monster, "Yo, what up dogs."

I saw Celea hit her forehead for that, 'Remind me to hurt him later.' I scuffed and nodded.

"Meet the beetles and the bird." Blake and I chorused as we moved our attack panels over our eyes and sent electricity at the Wolfblade.

Celea hit a button on my control panel, "'Owl flap'." Her zord's wing's started flapping hard and struck it even more.

"Haven't you heard? Bird is the word." The White Ranger flew up to help Shane with the next attack. They struck it with some of the lasers that came from their Zord's wings.

I groaned when the Wolfblade struck the Beetle Zords, mine taking the full force of it.

'Hunt!'

I groaned as I got my Zord back up, "I'm fine, Cel... don't worry."

She gave me an unconvinced look then nodded, "Okay."

Celea's Zord was forced into a building and I had just about of waiting, "Cyber Cam, any word from your Twin bro yet?"

"Yeah cause we're getting hammered out here!" Blake agreed as he got his Zord back up.

"Nothing yet. He answered as we helped Celea's Zord off the building, "Just hold those mutts off as long as you can."

The Wolfblade sent Tori's Zord flying and Celea quickly caught it with the beak of her's, "Catch of the day!"

"Thanks for that Cel."

"Guys!" Cam's voice came over our Morphers, and we looked over at a building. I saw a small speck of green and smirked, "Check it out!" He was holding a... weird looking guitar.

"Who knew." Celea grinned.

"He should totally try out for 'Totally Talented'." Dustin agreed.

"Not now Dustin." Tori reasoned.

"I'm calling it the 'Lighting Riff Blaster'." Cam declared.

"You couldn't come up with a better name?" Blake joked.

"Actions speak louder than words, Blake!" Cam replied as he flipped his power coin, "Check it out! I can use it to summon the Might Mammoth Zord!" He played a chord and suddenly a huge white and gold... well... Mammoth Zord came out from a cluster of buildings.

"Well why didn't you say so?" Celea smiled at the color.

Once it was all the way out Cam added, "I'm sending you back your Power Disk."

'Yes!' Celea cheered as they came into our loading docks.

I picked mine up and put it back in my morpher.

"Ninja Storm!"

"Thunder Storm!"

"Moonlit Storm!"

"Ranger Form Ha!" Once we were all morphed we chorused, "Ninja Ranger Power!"

We finally combined our Zords into the Lunar Thunderstorm Megazord.

I glanced over and saw the Mammoth Zord giving three of our Power Spheres. The Serpent Sword, The Ram Hammer, and the Turtle Mace. The Wolfblade came at us but we struck it down with the Serpent Sword.

"Combine with the Mammoth Zord, the power should be enough to defeat the Wolfblades." Cam instructed.

"Got it! Initiating sequence!" Shane agreed. With that, the Megazord combined with the Mammoth Zord. "Mammoth Zord! Engage weapons! Sphere attack!" Within seconds, a whole bunch of Power Spheres were put into the huge zord and struck them.

I smirked as we all set up our strongest possible attack and called out, "NINJA RANGER POWER!"

We struck the monster, and it finally was destroyed!

"YES!" Celea yelled with joy. I laughed with her as the others cheered too.

Third Person

2 days later...

Celea walked into the 'Totally Talent' Studio with something behind her back.

Blake raised a brow, "What's that?"

Celea smirked and held it up, "Small Piano... I got it just for the show."

Hunter blinked as the memory came back to him, "You made me forget!"

Celea held up a hand, "Sorry, but you two were being just as secretive."

She got them there.

"Still not gonna win." Shane sing-songed.

"Don't count your chickens till they hatch." Celea sung back, with a smirk.

Tori smile at her, "You'll still do great."

"Yeah... maybe not as good as me, great, though... cause I'm gonna win." Dustin smirked.

"Sure." Ty smirked, "We'll see."

They turned when they saw Cam walking in. "Hey, you made it." Tori smiled at him.

"Sure it's not Cyber Cam?" Blake tried to look under the cowboy hat that the Green Ranger was wearing.

Cam smiled and raised his head a little, "It's the real me."

Ty noticed a guitar he was carrying, "Uh.. that thing's not gonna summon up an Ancient Robots or anything is it?"

Cam pulled the guitar in front front of him, "It might... I've been known to rock a few worlds."

Celea smirked, accepting that as a challenge, "Oh... big words, little man."

"Hey, but don't feel too bad when you come in... second." Shane joined in.

"Or third! Or Fourth or even... fifth." Dustin added.

The theme music for 'Totally Talented' started to play.

"Let's go guys!" The group of Seven quickly got over the stage.

"It's time for 'Totally Talented'!" Stu turned to the camera, "Today one talented act will win the chance of a lifetime! So... who's it gonna be?"

Tori's turn...

Tori sashayed a bit as dance music played, she rolled her shoulders a bit as she did a spin to finish.

Shane's turn...

"I can reach the sky," Shane sang, "On the wing of your love. Like a mighty eagle, soaring high above."

Dustin's turn...

Dustin moved about the stage as he played the tune he'd been practicing all week.

Ty's turn...

Ty played his favorite beat on the upcycled buckets he'd been using all week, and the crowd was loving it.

Cam's turn...

Cam played a few chords that was similar to the ones he played to summon the Mammoth Zord.

The Bradley's turn...

"I can't watch..." Celea turned away, laughing softly as they got onto the stage.

"Mo...to!" Hunter started, "Yeah I'm Hunter, me and my brother Blake..." He motioned to Blake who was playing a turn table beside him, "We may not look alike, but make no mistake! He spines and scratches for my lyrical matches, my wicked brother's technique is hardly tongue-and-cheek. We make Rappers look like Tongue flappers! We're the Moto bros, we take no prisoners! We've got a million listeners! You can be a part of it too, but to be a part of it too, but to be a part of the groove you gotta Moto come through!"

Celea was barking with laughter when he finished. She always found rappers annoying... now the brothers were never gonna live down how ridiculous they were.

Celea's turn...

Celea walked onto the stage, gulping softly as she looked out at the audience. It was now or never... face her stage fright or never get on stage again.

She took a deep breath as she put her piano down, put a mic with it's stand next to her, and sat down on a stool.

She put her fingers to the keys, closed her eyes, and started playing. Then, she started singing, "You fascinated me, cloaked in shadows and secrecy... the beauty of a broken angel... I ventured carefully, afraid of what you thought I'd be... but pretty soon I was entangled." Memories of her and Hunter, helped calm her down a lot, "You take me by the hand... I question who I am! Teach me how to fight, I'll show you how to win! You're my mortal flaw, and I'm your fatal sin!... Let me feel the sting, the pain, the burn, under my skin!"

She opened an eye and glanced over at where the guys were sitting, before back at the camera as she played still, "Put me to the test, I'll prove that I'm strong. Won't let myself believe, that what we feel is wrong! I finally see what you knew was inside me all along!... That behind this soft exterior... lies a warrior!"
Celea smiled as she played and looked out at the audience, her heart clenching with fear, "My memory refused to separate the lies from truth... and search the past my mind created!... I kept on pushing through, standing resolute, which you... in equal measure, loved and hated."
Not that the Bradly's did...
"You take me by the hand... I'm seeing who... I am!" Celea continued to play, calming her nerves and she tried to tell herself that her friends were supporting her, "Teach me how to fight, I'll show you how to win! You're my mortal flaw, and I'm your fatal sin! Let me feel the sting, the pain, the burn, under my skin! Put me to the test, I'll prove that I'm strong, won't let myself believe that what we feel is wrong! I finally see what you knew was inside me all along!"

Celea smiled as she finally calmed down enough as she played, "That behind this soft exterior..." She stopped playing for a moment before picking it back up, "Lies a warrior... Lies a warrior...!... You take me by the hand... I'm sure of who... I am!Teach me how to fight! I'll show you how to win! You're my mortal flaw, and I'm your fatal sin...! Won't let me feel the sting, the pain, the burn, under my skin! Put me to the test! I'll prove that I'm strong! Won't let myself believe, that what we feel is wrong...! I finally see what you knew was inside me all along!... That behind this soft exterior...! Lies a warrior...! Oh... oh... oh..."
She smiled softly as she thought of Hunter and her friends again for the final part, "The pictures come to life! Wake in the dead of night! Open my eyes... I must be dreaming!... Clutch my pillow tight, brace myself for the fight! I've heard that seeing... is believe...ing...!"

Backstage...

Ty's and the Ranger's mouths were wide open. Celea was good... really good. Pro good!

"We're done."

"We've lost."

"We've definitely lost."

"Oh yeah..."

"No doubt."

"No question."

"Definitely."

The White Ranger walked off the stage and over to them, raising a brow when she noticed them gocking at her, "What's up guys?"

"You sure you're not some freaky Cyber thing?" Was the first thing Shane said.

Celea blushed a bit, "I'm... kinda a jack of all trades... I needed a way to make money... so I do a lot."

"That was so cool!" Tori smiled at her.

"Yeah... well... I didn't know those boys could rap." Celea nodded to the brothers as she sat down, before she started laughing, "Though I'm never letting you live it down... I hate Rappers!"

They shrugged before Stu called out, "Now for the final act from..." He looked at his card, "Well all it says is 'Far, far away'... SNA, Space Ninjas with Attitude!"

Celea blinked, "What name?"

Two girls that Celea instantly associated with Kapri and Marah started singing.

When they finished, Stu came onto the stage, "Well there's no doubt about it! Our Winners are SNA, Space Ninjas with Attitude!"

Celea's heart sank, "So much for putting myself out there." She looked down, and Shane patted her back.

"Don't say that, you were amazing..." He assured.

"No question." Dustin added.

"Stunning." Ty continued the praising.

"The best." Cam agreed.

"Radical." Blake concurred.

"Totally perfect." Tori conformed.

"Way better than anyone here!" Hunter finished. While they were trying to cheer their friend up, Stu continued talking about what SNA had won.

Finally, Ty couldn't hold back his annoyance, and looked over at the others as Celea looked up again, "Okay... there's something wrong with this picture."

"Really wrong." Tori agreed. She and Celea looked over at something that was covered and their eyes widened, "And I think I know why."

They got up and grabbed a pink boom-box. They then smirked at Marah and Kapri, "Do you guys wanna try that again?" Celea pushed the play button and the song they'd just sung, lyrics and all, played out before she pushed the button again, "Without the CD player?" Stu shook his head, and walked away.

"Well if we can't win, then nobody wins!" Kapri's hand glowed pink and stuck Stu.

He groaned as his clothes, hair and face was covered in ash, "That's it! I'm sick of working with amateurs! Where's my agent?!" He walked away.

"Wait... so... does that mean nobody wins?" Dustin frowned.

Ty shrugged, "I don't know Dustin, I think we're all winners." The Rangers all hit his shoulders for that cheesy line.

One of the judges walked onto the stage a moment later though, "Well... I guess that means we go to the second winner... Celea Palensa!"

The Rangers perked up at that, and quickly pushed Celea onto the stage again.

"Th... than... thanks." Was all she could manage as she shook the Judge's hand.

"Should we tell her that the second winner only get's a trophy?" Blake whispered to his brother.

The crimson ranger smiled at his best friend as she got the trophy, "Let her have her moment, she deserves it."

Celea cheered happily, smiling at them, finally glad she got over a fear. One down... one huge one to go.

And her friends were not gonna stand by and let her lose.


Here it is. Again, sorry for posting later than expected...

Anyway... next week, next chapter.

In the meantime, please review, please no flames.
