"We came to take down Lothor we figured you'd need our help." Naomi said
as they walked into Ninja Ops. Her and Cam were talking about what the
three of them were doing so far from home.
*Though it seemed like the three understood there was still a slight feeling of frustration surrounding them. Underneath all of it the aura of tension would soon be broken with such force it would take an amazing power to take it down. As they walked into Ninja Ops Gabe couldn't help but complain.
"I still can't believe that you are the good guys." Gabe was looking at Hunter and Blake who eyed them warily. Kaia nodded and was the first to back him up.
"I second that, spell or no you switched awfully fast." Kaia spat eyeing them both with concern. She then turned to face the Wind Ninjas.
"Are you sure you're not under a spell? Cuz I-"
"Don't start again-" Hunter reacted more to Kaia's challenge than Gabe's.
"We just went over this." Blake commented.
"-mean it would make sense." Kaia continued than walked over to Blake and took his wrist and tried to pry the morpher off of him. To see if she could connect to Lothor.
Blake instantly went into combat mode and Kaia aimed a punch but he blocked it and then knocked her to the ground with his own attack.
Everyone turned around to watch the challenge. Flipping out Naomi yelled at kaia and Gabe, hoping it would break the ice that surrounded their thick heads. "Guys, get over it! It's not like the first time this has happened to rangers-so stop freaking out!" Naomi's scream succombed the silent room.
"Sure, you weren't the one stuck with them for a week and a half!" Kaia retorted remembering having to deal with the Thunders alone before. Shifting over to Hunter she sweeped him off his feet and took him down.
"That's for taking me prisoner!" She glared at him as Blake came up behind her and grabbed her shoulder, making her off balance.
Blake, Hunter really that's enough!" Tori tried to calm the boys down. Reaching over to one of them she tried to grab their wrist but missed.
"So much for forgive and forget." Tori stated. Backing up to rethink her strategy.
"They were the reasons why are lives are turned up side down!" His thought directed towards the wind rangers. Then he turned his anger towards Naomi.
"How do you know so much about the rangers anyway!"
"You're the one who refused to admit it!" She shot back ignoring his question. Going up to him she looked into his eyes.
"I got us this far-trust me."
That was a fire starter that broke Gabe's tension and he let it all out.
"Oh REALLY, WELL WHO DIED AND MADE YOU LEADER?"
"HMM.YOU!" Naomi shot back with an attitude.
Shocked the others looked on and leaning over Dustin and Tori said to Kaia, who was still fighting Blake:
"Are they-"
"Always like this?"
"No. Usually it's me and Gabe." A slight smile escaped on to her lips.
"Someone's gotta break up this fight." Cam commented but made no move to get in the middle of it. Then he corrected himself.
"These fights. They might break something."
"This wouldn't have happened if Kaia hadn't come running to us!" Gabe yelled transferring his anger to Kaia.
"Oh no you are not blaming this on me." She kicked blake and swung at Hunter. Then doing a couple of backflips she turned to face Gabe. She shoved him.
"All I did was come to get help, the Thunders took care of the rest."
Hunter shook his head and made for Naomi, Kaia and Gabe.
"Hunter", Blake warned, "don't do anything stupid."
Fully aware that his bro wasn't going to leave this alone. I am just as mad at them as you but I know that a fight is not going to solve the problem.hopefully!
"The three of you are pathetic." Hunter said making the three turn on him. He quickly backed up and tried to make peace.
"That's it wonderboy you're going down. Now that Lothor's not here there's no one to stop me from kicking your-" Kaia made a move but Gabe and Naomi stopped her.
"Kaia let's stop wasting our time here. We'll go take care of Lothor all by ourselves." Dragging Kaia with him out the door it was all Kaia could do not to rip his head off.
"You've been warned rangers you try anything dumb and I'll be back here in a flash." Was the last statement that Kaia made before she was out of hearing range.
Naomi just stood there. She didn't know what to do. She wanted to cry. She wanted to stop hurting. Most of all she wanted to help. Of course helping them meant leaving her friends. How could she do that? Still the thought of joining the Wind and Thunders against Lothor sounded a lot safer than doing all alone.
No one made a move to talk to Naomi, not one single ranger. Hunter helped Blake up and they checked for bruises. All of them looked at her half ready to fight and half peacefully; they couldn't decide the reactions of this one. As she took her back pack off and opened it up they tensed.
Sighing she took three letters out of her bag. Then zipped the bag up and Slowly she walked over to Shane and said to him.
"I am sorry about my friends they are.different. Anyway please do me this favor." He held his hand out to accept the packaged letters.
"These are for some friends of mine-"
"The ones you were trying to find." Cam responded. Naomi shook her head "yes. These are extremely important I don't know if I will get another chance." She looked at them her eyes filled with hope.
"We'll give them to your friends." He took the letters out of her hands.
She turned around and wasn't going to look back. She had come so close to her dreams only to find them shattered. It was not a good day for her.
"What are you going to do now?" Tori asked looking at her with simpathy. 'There's something about her that reminds me of someone. I just wish I knew whom.
"Not sure got to go make sure they are all right. Maybe we'll just go home. 'The less sensible option; running away but it just doesn't seem right.'
"Dude, you shouldn't leave we could probably use your help." Dustin said enthusiastically in his way of asking her to stay. He held out his hand.
"Your friends are bound to get over this eventually. Give them and yourself a chance." Cam surprised everyone with that remark.
"I don't know if it was truly meant to be." She wiped a tear and said finally, "Goodbye rangers.until we meet again.
Then she walked out to look for her miscreant friends who cost them their allies.
________________________________________________________ "Dude you know that wasn't so bad." Dustin exclaimed trying to cheer up his buds.
"You have got to be kidding, right. It was non stop fighting." Hunter rallied.
" No you boys had your ego strung up on hi definition, that's what burned a hole in them." Cam said sarcastically.
"All I know is that there's something weird about them." Shane said sitting down next to Tori who looked completely bummed.
" Yeah like I feel like I have met one of them before." Tori said thinking out loud.
The room settled into complete quietness until sensei showed up. One look at them and her knew something was wrong.
"It appears that our new friends are quite different from what you expected, hmm." He looked at them.
"Sensei it was different. I mean alone the three of them seemed like normal teens but when they were together-" Tori was interrupted by Shane.
"They recognized Blake and Hunter and it's like."
" Like they were completely different."
Sensei cocked his head to the side not understanding.
"What are you talking of? How did they know the Thunder Rangers?"
Looking from one to the other they told about what had happened before they met the Wind Rangers. Ending with what had just gone down.
"I understand why they presume to act this way but I don't understand why they chose to fight their problems." He stated.
"Sensei, so what are we supposed to do?" Dustin asked.
"Should we just let them figure this out for themselves?" Blake suggested. Hunter rolled his eyes but refused to comment.
"Dude, and you said we couldn't handle this." Dustin said.
"Yeah, tell me we were a lot better than them.
Cam rolled his eyes knowing he was cornered. Shane stood up and said In his most like cam voice.
"Ladies and Gentlemen the defenders of the galaxy." He bowed.
"I did not say it like that," Cam tried to cover, "I was more excited than that."
"Yeah excited at the thought of getting rid of us." Everyone laughed while Cam was still trying to explain. Sensei though interrupted him
"Rangers you must go home you have school tomorrow and Blake, Hunter it might be wise to stay away from them until this has settled down."
"All right with us." Hunter commented.
They all said their good byes and left for home still talking of the day Cam said those worfs. The envelopes forgotten by Shane were left on the table. Sensei looked at the addresses and commented;
"Well this is interesting." ____________________________________________________
" No Mel I don't know when I'll be back.I am thinking like maybe tomorrow if this is all settled." He looked at Naomi who just shook her head.
"Yeah well you know life's difficult.No I don't need anymore support here.alright how about you fax me your stuff and I'll fix it for you by tonight. Promise."
"How long are we going to stay here and do nothing" Kaia asked innocently to Naomi." Who just shrugged and continued to pack her stuff up.
"Why don't you ask our fearless leader." She shot back.
"He's to busy trying to control a store more than a hundred miles away."
"Now come on Mel you know I want it.I promise I will be back for the ceremony.it's in three months Mel how could I possibly miss it?.Okay I will talk to you later. Bye." Gabe shut off his phone and looked at the others as he turned to the refrigerator.
"I am thinking we head back." He stated.
Kaia shook her head.
"Look we came here for a reason to decimate Lothor and I want to NOW!" She let her lungs fill up with air as she tried to restrain herself.
"I am going to bed I will see y'all in the morning." Naomi got up walked into her room, shutting the door. ______________________________________________________
It was the middle of the night and Naomi was having a nightmare. It seemed so real she couldn't tell the difference. She watched as the place was being burned down and ancient scrolls were destroyed. She wanted to scream- she tried to but nothing came out and she watched helpless.
Waking up she gulped in air for a long time before she felt normal again and she drifted off into another part of the dream sequence. __________________________________________________
The bell rang at Blue Bay High and the sun was brightly shining. The forcaster stated that it would be a beautiful day with not a cloud in the sky. Dustin was running around trying to find Shane or Tori.
"Dude, did you get a note in your locker?" He asked as they walked down the halls. The other students talking over them.
"No. Why?" He looked questioningly at Dustin. Whom just shook his head.
"You gotta read it to believe it!"
Shane walked a few feet to his locker and unlocked it. Then he put his books away but something fell to the ground that looks oddly familiar. Dustin picked it up and shut Shane's locker nearly missing his fingers.
"Read." Was all he said. Calmly Shane tore open the envelope and unfolded the letter. He read it once and looked at Dustin then read it again.
"No way." He whispered. "Does Tori-"
"Hey guys" Tori was racing down the hall," did anyone else get a letter-"
"We both did." Shane confirmed.
"This week is getting stranger and stranger." They walked down the hall looking at each other for answers.
"First those kids and now this?" Dustin said. He leaned on a random locker. Truly prplexed.
"What's next?" Was Tori's reply. She was answered by Cyber Cam's voice.
"Hey guys we got a small sitch. Lothor sent one of his fish near the beach.
They looked at eachother and nodded.
"Call the others Cyber-Cam and we'll be right there." The teens raced down to the beah in flashing lights. At the same time Hunter, Blake and Cam met them.
"Wait a minute I don't see anyone." Tori commented as they all searched for the evil being.
"If you're looking for mister ugly you're a little late!" A voice said behind them. Slowly they turned around.
"Gabe what are you doing here?" Blake asked. The others went into defense mode as Gabe laughed.
"I took care of it rangers just like I told you I would.'
"So much for team work and the whole three as one thing." Tori commented. The others nodded.
"I gotta run but we'll meet again." He said before vanishing into a cloud of blake smoke.
Turning to everyone Cam said;
"We really have to fix this problem asap.
*Though it seemed like the three understood there was still a slight feeling of frustration surrounding them. Underneath all of it the aura of tension would soon be broken with such force it would take an amazing power to take it down. As they walked into Ninja Ops Gabe couldn't help but complain.
