The desert is a beautiful place during the springtime. Flowers are blooming, Zoids are running, and Taylor is attacking Johto.

"Get back here with my food!!"

Taylor was carrying a large lead pipe in her hands. Johto had a plate of donuts in his. Johto grinned as he ate one of the donuts. Taylor ran faster.

"Johto!! Don't you dare eat my donuts!! You are going to pay!!"

"If you catch me first!" With that, he ate another doughnut.

Three Organoids and another girl sat watching Taylor chase Johto. A guy sat next to a green and blood-red Organoid.

"Summer, are they going at it again?"

Summer nodded.

"Yeah, Johto took her donuts again."

The guy looked confused.

"Again? In the same day?"

Summer nodded again.

"Johto took her donuts and her cookies today."

Johto is seen tripping and being whacked over the head with the lead pipe. Taylor grabs the plate of donuts and walks over to them.

"Hey guys, how are you doing?"

Summer looks at the plate of donuts. Taylor gives her half of the plate. Summer smiles as she eats the donuts.

"Thanks, Taylor! Who is that guy over there, anyways?"

Taylor smiled and walked up to him.

"This is our new team mate, Brad Hunter."

Everyone just looked at Taylor and started laughing. Johto walked over and gave her a look.

"You kidding Taylor? That isn't Brad Hunter! That's somebody that is pretending to be," Johto said between laughing.

"Johto! You are mean! That is Brad and I'll prove it to you!"

Taylor took out a $50 and put it in front of Brad's face. He started drooling.

"I like money..money nice."

Johto looked at Taylor, still not believing it was Brad.

"Where's the Shadow Fox?"

"In the hanger."

Johto walked into the hanger to see the Shadow Fox staring down at him. Johto also saw a red Gunsniper next to it. Johto walked back over to the group and looked at Taylor.

"Where's Naomi?"

Taylor looked puzzled.

"Who?"

"Where is Naomi Flugel? Her Gunsniper is here."

Brad walked up to Johto.

"Naomi is working on Leon's Blade Liger. They should be around here somewhere."

Johto walked up to Taylor.

"You mean to tell me that the Flugel Team has joined the Lightning Team?"

"Don't forget the original Lightning Team, Johto."

Jack Cisco and the Tasker sisters walked up behind Johto. Taylor took out a whistle and blew it. A giant group a people came over to stand around Taylor, Johto, and Summer. Taylor looked at a list and smiled.

"Everyone that wants to join the Lightning, or the Nightblade Team as we're also called, is here?"

"Wait!! We want to join!"

Taylor knew who that was by the voice. It was Bit Cloud and his Liger Zero. A Gunsniper was following the Liger. It was Leena.

"Prepare your Zoids for the trials!

***

"Taylor here! Next time on The New Lightning Team: The Dragon Strikes, an old friend of mine shows up, and he wants to challenge me to a battle! Wait, you mean Jack wants me to battle Kane? Oh no, I sense total chaos! Jack Hunter's Arrival: The Fight with the Glow Fox! See you then!"

Disclaimer: I don't own Zoids, but I own Taylor, the Beak Liger, and Nitro, and my friends own Summer and Johto.

Author's Note: I might add people for the trials. I just don't know enough people. ^_^;
