DarkPriestess66: Down and Dirty, don't own it. I don't write what happens on Lothor's ship, because I really don't feel like it and it has nothing really to do with the Rangers.

The Ninja Gang were at the track cheering on Blake, Hunter, and Dustin.

"Welcome to the Blue Bay Harbor motocross, and the last qualify before the nationals next month," the announcer greeted. "The top four riders will qualify for the big show, so there's a lot at stake here folks,"

Desiree walked with Kelly, Hunter, and Blake to the starting line, she had permission, one because she was Hunter's girlfriend and second, she was The Desiree Oliver semi-pro rollerblader,

"You put in the new air filter right?" Kelly asks,

"Yeah," Blake answers,

"Did you seal it, so that no dirt gets in your air box?" Hunter asks,

"Bro, I'm not an idiot," Blake answers,

"He never said you were," Desiree states,

"Hey has anyone seen Dustin?" Kelly asks,

"No, I thought he'd be here for sure," Blake replies, as they reached the Thunder Brothers' bikes,

"Thanks man," Hunter thanked the guy, who was holding his bike, Desiree stood between Hunter and Blake,

"Good luck, guys." Desiree stated as she stood on her tiptoes and kissed Hunter's cheek, then for good measure and pure enjoyment, she did the same to Blake, who she loved like another brother.

She backed away and stood with Kelly, but she could still hear everything.

"Crazy huh?" Hunter asked his brother,

"What's that?" Blake replies,

"If one of us wins, it's not like we can bail and fly around the country side racing," Hunter explains,

Desiree bit her lip, there were thirty seconds to the start of the race, and Dustin wasn't there.

Blake looked over at Hunter, he kicked his bike to start "Dude, I just want to prove that I can beat these clowns, and if I do beat them, it's all good why do you think Ree isn't going pro? "

"Well don't get to disappointed," Hunter replies,

"What's that suppose to mean?" Blake asks,

"I'm not here to pony them, I want first." Hunter replies,

Blake just shook his head like he couldn't believe what he was hearing,

"We're not going as a team, but we're still racing," Hunter finished.

"No problems here," Blake replies, he raised his hand and Hunter gave him a high five.

Five seconds left, the racers revved the engines of their dirt bikes, Desiree looked around and Dustin still hadn't shown up. She was beginning to worry if something Lothor related had got to him,

"The gate drops and there they go," The announcer inform the crowd, "And it looks like clean start,"

Desiree cheered as Hunter and Blake took the lead,

"Now it's Hunter and Blake Bradley out in front and they're battling, you wouldn't know these guys are brothers,"

In the end Blake came in first,

"Remember folks, we got some free style demo after the show today if you like to stick around to see some guys bust out some mad tricks we totally recommend it," the announcer states,

Desiree caught up with Blake as he pushed his bike toward the pit area, "Congrats, but that was a cheep shot," she was talking about Blake riding in front and using his back tire to throw Hunter off balance,

Hunter came over the hill and threw his helmet to the ground, Desiree didn't like the angry expression on his face,

"You're going to scratch your helmet," Blake stated

"What was that? You totally high sided me," Hunter replies,

"I didn't" Blake responds, "You came under me,"

"That's ridiculous!" Hunter exclaims,

"Besides you wanted to race, I was racing," Blake states, he reaches into a tool box,

"Do you realize this means I don't make nationals?" Hunter asks,

"So what, you said you can't go anyways," Blake replies holding his arms out to the side,

Hunter just turned and walked off,

Blake threw the wrench back in the tool box, and turned back around, "Hey! You know what I think. I think you're just mad because you got beat by your little brother, if it was anyone of these other guys it would have been a clean pass, but because it was me,"

Hunter huffed and walked off,

"Hey, is anything alright here?" Kelly asks walking up,

Desiree looked between her sponsor and Blake, then looked as Hunter kicked over some plastic chairs,

"Just great," Blake replies, he walked off.

Desiree rolled her eyes to the sky praying for the will not to strangle the brothers, herself. Then she ran after Hunter.

Angelica and Blake were watching the free style demon, Kelly came up behind them,

"Where's Hunter?" Kelly asks,

"He got a ride," Blake replies,

"Ree went with him," Angelica adds, "not sure why, she said something about a cheep shot?" she went back to watching the free style, there was a rider clad in yellow, Angelica thought it was Dustin,

The rider went up the ramp and into the air, did the splits in mid air and came back down the other ramp, but his bike slid out from under him, and he went rolling on the ground,

Angelica's hands came up to her mouth in a gasp of horror, the medics came over to cheek on him, when the rider pulled off his helmet, it was Dustin.

"Dustin!" Kelly exclaims, she, Blake, and Angelica came running over.

"Are you alright?" Angelica asks,

"Yeah, I'm fine," Dustin replies,

"Since when did you start doing free style demo?" Kelly asks,

"Yeah man, I thought you didn't want to get hurt for race season?" Blake adds,

"Dude, you're not helping," Dustin replies,

Blake clapped Dustin's shoulder, "I'll be waiting in the van," he then walked off,

"What's happening?" Kelly asked

"I guess I just miss free style you know, I've been so busy racing, I haven't had time to hit the ramp," Dustin replies,

Angelica and Kelly shook their heads and sighed.

"What was that?" Dustin asks,

"You have a promising racing career," Kelly replies,

"Even I know that," Angelica adds, "You really want to risk that?"

"I don't know, why can't I do both?" Dustin asks,

"You're a great rider, Dustin. But you're not Travis Pastrana," Kelly replies, then walks off.

"I'm going to find out what's wrong with Hunter and Blake, I'm feeling Desiree's worry and concern vibes," Angelica states, then walks off as well.

~~Storm Chargers~~

Tori, Angelica, and Blake were in the lounge area,

"I can't believe he did that." Blake states, "I mean what was he thinking?"

Desiree, Shane, and Hunter were in the workroom, sitting on the counters,

"He stuffed me," Hunter states, "He totally blocked me to the burn,"

Tori and Angelica sat curled up in chairs listening Blake's rant,

"You don't really except me to pick sides on this do you?" Tori asks,

"Yeah, I'm not choosing a side," Angelica adds,

Shane looked at Hunter, "I'm not choosing between you two cause that would be like..."

"Tori, Angel, just admit he shouldn't have step to me like that," Blake states,

"Whatever it might of looked like, I'm sure he didn't mean to do it," Shane states,

"All I know is there is clean racing and dirty racing, and what he did was diffidently dirty," Hunter replies,

"All I know is that you guys have to work this thing out," Tori and Desiree told the Thunder Brothers.

"You should see my sister and me," Tori adds,

"Yeah, you seen Desiree and I go at each other's throats," Angelica seconds,

"Hey, when my brother and I start to fight, Look out." Shane states,

"I'm not apologizing to him until he does to me," Blake states,

"Well I'm not going to him, no matter what." Hunter states, he got up and left.

Shane and Desiree shared a look before following, they met up with Tori and Angelica after the brothers glared at each other and walked the other way.

"Maybe we should lock them in ninja ops and let them fight it out," Tori suggests,

"Yeah, I'll pay to see that," Shane replies,

"I much as I love Hunter, I would pay to see them fight too," Desiree agrees,

Dustin walks over carrying a rag, looking bummed out,

"Dustin, are you alright?" Tori asks,

"Yeah, I could have used a little more help with Hunter," Shane states,

"Yeah, I just have a lot of things on my mind," Dustin replies,

their morphers beep, they look around and huddle in a tight group,

"Go for Shane,"

"Shane, you guys better get over here." Cam replies,

"On our way," Shane states,

The five run off.

~~~Ninja Ops~~~

Shane, Desiree, Angelica, Tori, and Dustin run into Ninja Ops, Hunter and Blake were still not speaking toward each other or even looking at each other,

"Hey, What's going on?" Shane asks,

"Look at this," Cam replies sitting by his laptop, "And more importantly listen,"

The ninjas grouped around Cam's laptop,

"Come on Rangers, where are you?" Kapri's voice asks from a megazord, "Don't you want to come out and play, it's just little old me,"

"Is that who I think it is?" Dustin asks,

"Kapri?" Desiree asks,

Sensai came flipping onto the table and did a rail side on the laptop, "You are correct, Desiree. There is no time to waste, you must intersect her before she can do any damage."

"I'll Initiate the zord sequence from here then join you," Cam adds,

"Before you go, Blake, Hunter. Remember whatever differences you have right now, you must put them aside, when performing your Ranger duties," Sensai states,

"I will if he does," Blake replies crossing his arms,

"Don't worry about me, dude." Hunter states,

Desiree step in between the brothers, giving both of them a heated glare, "If you two start an argument in the battle, I will crack your skulls open,"

"Well now that we got that settled," Shane states, slightly fearing Desiree's anger "Ready?"

"Ready!" the others answers,

"Ninja Storm,"

"Ice Storm,"

"Fire Storm,"

"Thunder Storm,"

"Ranger Form, ha!"

"Ninja Ranger Power."

The zords formed the Storm, Thunder, and Ice Phoenix Megazords,

"Storm Megazord,"

"Thunder Megazord,"

"Ice Phoenix Megazord!"

"Well there they are, all my least favorite colors," Kapri states,

"oh ho, now it's on," Dustin states,

"Let's do this," Hunter replies,

The three megazords charged forward, Kapri's megazord slashed at them,

"Feel the love, Rangers." Kapri states as she sent heart shaped energy blasts at the Ice Phoenix

Angelica and Desiree ducked as their control panels explodes in sparks,

Dustin called on a power sphere number five the lion laser and shot at Kapri's zord but she cartwheeled out of the way and the laser fire hit the Thunder Megazord.

"Oh man," Angelica, Desiree, Shane, Dustin and Tori states.

"Nice shot losers," Kapri states, "Man, this is easier then I thought it would be,"

~~Ninja Ops~~

Cam and Sensai watched the battle of the monitor,

"Hey! Why didn't you duck?" Hunter asks Blake,

"Me? You're the one who has the lateral controls," Blake replies,

"Excuse me, but what did we just discuss?" Sensai interrupts,

"Don't make me come over there," Desiree snarls,

"Sorry, Sensai, Desiree." the Thunders apologized.

"It won't happen again," Hunter adds,

Cam looked at relived, "Sometimes I'm so glad, I'm an only child."

Back at the battle, Kapri's zord battled with the Storm and Ice Phoenix Megazords as the Thunder Megazord was down for the count,

Desiree slammed her controls, "This isn't working, I'm up for suggestions,"

"I'm going to lighting mode," Shane states, the Storm Megazord went to lighting mode, the parts shrunk smaller, and they had the upper hand on Kapri's zord.

"Wait a minute," Kapri states as her zord was on the ground,

"Let's finish this," Shane states, they start to charge,

"Now!" Kapri orders,

Pink lighting stuck the Storm Megazord, as two more evil space Megazords leapt onto the scene,

"Who's that?" Shane asks,

"Remember me?" asks Shimazu

"You didn't think I'll let Kapri get all the credit, did you rangers?" Marah asks, she sent a laser beam at the Storm, but the Storm Megazord cartwheeled out of the way,

Shimazu's megazord charged at the Ice Phoenix, "Fire!"

Angelica and Desiree screamed as their zord controls exploded again,

"What is this? Pick on the twins' day?" The twins asks,

The Ice Phoenix kept getting pounded by Shimazu,

Angelica groaned.

"Angelica, are you alright?" Cam asks,

"I think so," Angelica replies, "Just a little shaken up,"

"You're going to be more then shaken in a minute, sister." Kapri stated as she did a flying kick at the ice phoenix, they landed on top of the Thunder Megazord,

"Huh? I'm back online?" Hunter states,

"Me too," Blake replies,

~~Ninja Ops~~~

"Tori, I got something to even the odds, Stand by I'm on my way," Cam states,

"You got it," Tori replies,

Cam stand up from the computer desk and yanks the Samurai Amulet of the leather cord, and it grows larger, "Samurai Storm, Ranger Form! Ha!"

The Samurai Star chopper came flying in,

"It's Cam" Tori states,

"And Cam,"

"And Cam,"

"Woah," The twins states watching from their downed Megazord,

"Fight fire with fire right guys?" Cam asks,

the three choppers transformed into the Samurai Star Megazords,

"They're drones, use them to form them to combine with your megazords," Cam explains,

"Talk about multitasking," Dustin laughs,

"Let's check them out," Shane replies,

the megazords combined with the drones,

"Tori, be ready," Shane states,

"Standing by," Tori replies,

"We're back online," The twins states, "I guess the systems just needed to reboot,"

"Ice Phoenix disengaged," Desiree commanded, "We're standing by too,"

The three megazords battled it out with Kapri, Shimazu and Marah,

They used maximum power and destroyed Marah's and Shimazu's zords,

lighting started sparking from the three megazords,

"What's happening?" Desiree asks,

Cam fought against Kapri's zord,

"Tori, Angel, Ree, are you three ready to get in on this?" Cam asks,

"You know it," the girls replied,

"Remember me?" Tori asks, as the dolphin zord took a bite out of Kapri's zord,

"Or us?" the twins asks, as they sent their own zord to attack, The Phoenix zord attacked with it's talons, while the the white dragon took a bit out of the other side of Kapri's zord.

The three zords broke off the attack, Tori rejoined the Storm, while the Dragon and Phoenix formed again to form the Ice Phoenix megazord,

"Now let's show her what a real zord is," Tori suggests,

"You heard her guys," Desiree states, as she put her power disk in, "Power Spheres, Locked and Dropped."

Tori summoned the Lighting rift blaster, "You're going to have a mammoth headache when this is over,"

the Hurricane Megazord jump aboard the Mammoth Zord, and summoned all the power spheres'

"Mammoth Megazord blast. activate" Tori states,

"Fire!" the eight rangers commanded

The blast destroyed Kapri's zord, and the Rangers started to cheer.

Kapri landed on the ground, Shimazu and Marah came over,

"Your plan failed," Shimazu states, as Marah helps her sister up,

"Well at least we had a plan, what do you have?" Kapri asks,

"Besides a escape route that is," Marah adds,

"How dare you," Shimazu replies,

"You don't like the way we're talking to you?" Kapri asks,

"No I don't," Shimazu replies turning away and crossing his arms,

"We can fix that," Marah states as the evil sisters backed away,

"Shall we?" Kapri asks,

"We shall," Marah answers,

"No, I didn't mean it," Shimazu stated but the evil sisters fired their ninja beams at him, destroying him.

"Poor Shimazu," Kapri states, picking up the mask, "That had to hurt,"

"Oh well, I never really liked him anyway," Marah replies, "So now what?"

Vexacus walks in behind them, "Now we complete our plan by overthrowing your uncle," He walks up to them putting his arms around Marah and Kapri's shoulders, "Then the three of us will rule earth together,"

~~Storm Chargers~~~

Angelica walked in with Desiree, the fire ninja pulling the two feuding brothers in after her, she pushed them toward where they're bikes are,

"Get your bikes and gear, We're going to the track." Desiree orders.

The Bradley brothers did as Desiree ordered them to do, and left.

*Good luck, sis. Don't kill them.* Angelica teases,

*Shut up* Desiree replies, with a hint of teasing in her mind voice,

Dustin walks in as Angelica was looking over Kelly's shoulder, "Hey Kel. Can I talk to you for a sec?"

"Sure," Kelly replies, as she came out from around the counter,

"I made a decision," Dustin states,

"decision about what?" Kelly asks,

"I'm giving up racing," Dustin replies,

Angelica walks over, "What?"

"You're not serious?" Kelly asks

"Yeah, I am." Dustin answers,

"Please tell me, this has nothing to do with what we talked about?" Kelly begs,

"I really like racing," Dustin replies,

"Then why would you give it up?" Kelly asks,

"Because I realize I love free style," Dustin replies, "That's what I want to do and um I don't want to let you down, and you have been so good to me,"

"Look, Storm Chargers is about action sports and freestyle Motocross is an action sport," Kelly replies, "If that's what you want to do, I'm behind you one hundred percent and so is the shop."

Dustin smiled and hugged Kelly, "Thanks, Kel."

~~Track~~~

Desiree stood on the side lines. "You're going to have a rematch," she walked off to the finish line, to watch the whole race

"Alright, five laps." Hunter states,

"Five laps," Blake agrees, "Let's settle this once and for all."

"Fine," Hunter replies,

Desiree watched carefully as the brothers raced against each other, and Blake came in first again.

"Yeah man, good race." Blake commented. "You totally railed that last turn,"

"Thanks," Hunter replies, "You were right,"

"About what?" Blake asks,

"What you said earlier," Hunter replies,

Blake nods,

"You beat me fair and square," Hunter states, "It's hard to admit that your little bro does something better then you do,"

"Listen man, today might be better, tomorrow might not be," Blake replies, "but we're always going to be Bros, just got to remember that,"

"Yeah," Hunter replies. He and Blake clapped their fists together, "We do,"

Desiree smiled and shook her head, "Boys."
