Episode 11
Missing You Like Crazy
It was early the next day and there was no sign of Vexagon so Hunter, Dustin and Blake headed to Storm Chargers for work. Kelly was ringing up a few customers when they entered the shops.
She looked up at them as they came over, "Oh hey guys!"
Dustin waved, "Hey Kelly, Were here for work. What do you want us to do?" He asked.
Kelly pointed to the back and replied, "More shipment has come in. Organized the parts, mark the prices and stock them. Hunter, you can ring. I have to go and run some errands." Hunter nodded and went around the corner to the register as Dustin and Blake headed on back. Kelly then grabbed her coat and went out the back exit. The front door opened and Tori came in and took a look around. Hunter's face lit up as the blonde walked to the left part of the store. He waved to get her attention but she didn't notice as she went to the surfboards on the wall. He slowly put his hands down and scratched his head. He just shrugged and went around the counter to try and greet her again.
Hey Tor!" He yelled to get her attention.
She spun around and smiled, "Hey Hunter! I didn't know you were here."
Hunter smirk, "Yeah, I kind of figured. What are you looking for?"
She turned back to all the surfboards, "I need a new board. Mine has a crack in it." She responded. Hunter nodded and looked up at the surfboards with her. The familiar jingle of the door rung as Hunter turned to see Shane coming in, holding his skateboard.
"What's up Shane?" He called out to him. Shane turn and waved to them
"Hey guys!" He gave Hunter a high five and nodded to Tori.
Tori nodded back, "What are you up to?" She asked.
He held up his skateboard, "Ah nothing. Just skating around." He replied. Blake came out from the back, holding a large cardboard box. He placed it on the counter and went over to the gang.
"Tori!" He called out. She extended her hands and he grasped it, pulling her close, "What are you doing here?"
"Surfboard shopping." She responded. Shane stared at the two couples as they started to giggle and flirt with each other.
Shane rolled his eyes, "Do you guys mind?" He got a bit angry, "You guys look so stupid when you do that."
Tori just glared at him, "Come on Blake. I'll give you a hand, unpacking those parts." She pointed to the box. He nodded and they both headed over. Hunter and Shane both walked over to the couch and sat down.
Hunter turned to him, "What's with you man? You get all jealous or something whenever your around those two." He asked. Dustin came out from the back and took a look around. He was cleaning his hands with a rag as he walked over to Shane and Hunter.
He tossed the rag on the table, "What are ya talking about?" He asked.
Shane ignored Dustin and shrugged at Hunter's comment, "I'm not jealous." He responded, "It's just when I see those two I just can't stop thinking about.." He trailed off
"Who?" Hunter asked as Dustin sat down next to Shane.
Dustin grinned, "I think someone misses a certain karminion."
Shane sighed, "Is it that obvious?" He turned around to Dustin.
He nodded, "Yeah, cause you can't stop looking at your battlizer." He chuckled.
Shane slumped back on the couch, "Skyla was such a fantastic person and the more I think about her, the more I miss her."
"You barley even knew her for a day." Hunter pointed out.
"So? Even in that little time I had with her, she just seam so..so."
"So what?" Dustin curiously asked.
Shane cracked a smile and stood up, "You know what. I'm just being stupid. I'm going to do some more skating. I'll catch you guys later."
"Fine, later dude!" Dustin yelled out as he watches him leave the store. Meanwhile Vexagon arrived back at his fortress where he entered a large room with a huge window that looked out over the earth. There was also a computer and a big screen. In the center of the room was a large chair for Vexagon to sit in. Blade and ScaleFace were looking out the window as Vexagon came up from behind them.
Not bothering to turn around, "Looks like you had a bit of trouble with those powers." Blade spoke up
Vexagon clenched his fist, "My powers aren't stable enough to be fully use to the max but they're strong enough to eliminate you if you talk to me like that again." He snapped at him and then turned to and sat in his chair, "Is the ship fully operational?" He asked.
ScaleFace turned to him and shook his head, "Many of the base's systems have been fried and most of the energy was depleted when you used the ritual room." He answered.
A bit angry, "Well we can't just sit here while the rangers plan their next move. Send the Kaiser warriors down! Have them bring a monster down with them!"
ScaleFace nodded and exited the room. Back down on earth, Shane was skating along the side of the road when he saw something from the corner of his eye. He flipped up his board and caught it in the air and went over to investigate. He ran into a large field where he found the Kaiser Warriors.
"Look what the cat dragged in." Shane yelled to them to get their attention. They both turned around and stared at him.
The Male Kaiser took out his rapier, "If it isn't the red ranger."
"Ninja Storm, Ranger Form ha! Power of Air!" Shane shouted. Shane pulled out his ninja sword and started to circle around the Kaiser Warriors. Both Kaiser Warriors grinned to each other, not moving an inch. A bit confused, Shane lowered his weapon, leaving himself off guard. The Male Kaiser snapped his finger and a mysterious figure rammed into the back of Shane, knocking him off his feet. Shane struggled to get back up and tried to find who hit him. There stood a giant black alien with two horns sticking out of his head. He had red eyes and a large snout. He was similar to a bull in a way.
"Meet Bulltron." The female spoke up, "He'll be your play mate for the day." She evilly laughed as Bulltron charged forward at the red ranger. Shane flipped over the bull, spun around and hit the alien in his leg. Bulltron roared out in pain as he grabbed Shane and slammed him against a tree.
"Whoa, what strength." Shane said as he eased himself back up. Bulltron stomped the ground and started to charge at him. Bulltron was then hit by a blast from out of nowhere. The black bull looked around as the rest of the rangers appeared on the scene.
Tori turned her head to Shane, "You all right!?"
Shane ran over and joined the others, "Yeah, thanks." He responded. The Kaiser Warriors decided to join in on the fight and charged towards the rangers. Hunter and Blake quickly dodged out of the way and started to battle the male kaiser. Tori and Dustin teamed up to take on the female one, leaving Cam and Shane to battle Bulltron.
"This guy doesn't look so tough." Cam said with confidant.
Shane chuckled, "Looks can be deceiving. This thing is tough." Bulltron charged at them both but the green and red ranger jumped over him. Bulltron quickly turned around and grabbed Cam. Shane tried to slash at him but Bulltron's skin was to tough to do any damage to it. The bull simply tossed Cam into Shane and started to laugh.
"If you think that's something. Check this out!" He snarled, as he clenched his fist. A huge energy ball started to form between his two horns. Cam and Shane started to back away, ready to dodge the attack. Bulltron swung his head around and lunched the ball of energy right towards the rangers, exploding on impact, sending them flying into the dirt.
Shane slammed his fist on the ground, "That's it. It's time to get serious." He shouted, summoning his battlizer morpher, "Battlizer mode engage!" He called out.. He stood their waiting for it to react, but nothing happened.
Cam got back up and went to him, "What are you waiting for!?"
Shane brought his morpher to his face, "I don't understand. It's not working."
Cam sighed, "Let me handle this then. Samurai Sword, Power up!" He charged his sword up and slashed at Bulltron, penetrating through his tough skin and destroying him. The rangers all regrouped together and faced the two Kaiser Warriors who were beginning to back away.
Hunter pointed his staff towards them, "End of the line for you!" Then suddenly something in the sky caught the ranger's attention. It was Vexagon, suspended in the air.
"You kaiser warriors can't do anything can you?" He glared at them. He then raised a fist in the air and a black energy formed around it. He shot it towards the ground where Bulltron once stood. The energy created a huge explosion and as the smoke cleared Bulltron appeared but as a giant, "Enjoy!" Vexagon laughed and flew off again. The Kaiser Warriors also retreated.
The rangers looked up at the large alien, "Whoa. Looks like we might need zords for this!" Tori said.
"Cyber Cam! Activate the zords!" Cam spoke into his morpher.
Cyber Cam's voice responded, "Right on!" The zords came zipping out and onto the battle field. The rangers all jumped into their respected zords and formed the ThunderStorm Megazord and the
Samurai Star Megazord. Bulltron wasted no time and started to charge towards the ThunderStorm Megazord. The zord tried to move out of the way but it was to slow and was knocked to the ground by Bulltron's head butt.
Cam took out a power sphere,"Looks like we need some backup. Lock and Drop" The sphere dropped and the Samurai Star Megazord summoned the Bee Spinner. Bulltron turned to the green ranger's zord and started to charge again. Cam launched the Bee Spinner, knocking Bulltron back.
"Aarg!" Bulltron started to get angry. He started to charge a ball of energy between his horns again. The ThunderStorm Megazord got back up and turned to the bull.
"We better stop him! Hurry Fire!" Shane shouted to the rangers. They launched there ThunderStorm Megazord's special attack, destroying Bulltron once again.
Dustin was cheering."All right! We did it!"
"Yeah!" Blake agreed. The rangers were about to exit their Megazords when Shane notice something flying right past it. He leaned forward, off his cockpit seat to get a better look. It was a small firebird heading towards the woods. The same woods where Shane obtain his battlizer.
A bit puzzled, "What is that?" He asked himself, "Hey guys. I got something to do. Celebrate without me." He told the rest of the rangers.
"Do you want us to come with you?" Dustin asked.
Shane shook his head, "No. I'll meet you guys back at Ninja Ops." And he jumped out of the Megazord and ran into the woods. He demoprhed into his normal form and started to search around. He walked through the familiar path that he once followed when he was with Skyla. He continued walking for a bit in till he ran into the chimney.
Shane sighed, "Man, am I being foolish or what. Skyla isn't coming back." He sat down and leaned himself against the chimney and closed his eye, "Boy do I miss her." He whispered. He was tired from the last battle and all that walking that he began to fall asleep. An hour or two later, a screech woke Shane back up and he caught a blazing light from the corner of his eye. He turned around and looked up. He saw a flaming bird landing on a branch, looking down at him.
Shane took a step forward and stared at it, "Who are you?" He asked.
"Have you forgotten already?" A voice echoed in his head.
Shane's eyes widen immensely, "Skyla!?" The firebird flapped its wing, creating a ball of light. The light was to bright that Shane had to cover his eyes. When he opened his eyes again, a woman with black curls was standing in front of him.
"..Skyla..." Shane whispered. She took a step forward to him and smiled, putting her hand on his face.
"Hello Shane." She spoke to him.
Shane pulled her hand away and held it, "How is this possible. I thought you were gone forever."
She chuckled, "I told you Shane, karminions don't die. We just constantly change into another form. We are forever linked remember?"
He nodded, "I remembered. Why have you come back though? I mean I'm happy and all but why did you wait so long?"
She walked past him and stared into the woods, "I came to remind you to be strong Shane. Your begining to lose faith, I had to save it. The power that I passed on to you will dwindle and fade away if you don't." She replied. She then turned to him, "And if that happens, then I will weaken, for we are linked between this power."
Shane stared down at the ground and remained silent, "I'll try." He finally spoke, "It's just hard when your not around."
Skyla started to walk towards the chimney, placing her hand on it, closing her eyes, "I know..." She whispered, "But you must stay strong. Do not forget that you were given a gift." He nodded as she walked back over to him.
"I must go." She softly spoke, grabbing his hands, "I believe in you." Shane looked away not saying anything. Skyla smiled, letting go of his hand. She slowly walked away as he turned back to look at her. She took one last glance as Shane cracked a smile at her and nodded. A bright light shined on her, making Shane close his eyes again. When he opened his eyes, he found himself sitting against the chimney.
He stood back up and brushed the leaves off, "Wait." He froze for a sec, "Did that just happen?" He took a step forward, "Did I just dream all that?" He was confused, but before he had any real time to think his morpher went off.
"Shoot!" Shane answered.
"Finally." Cam said with a bit of relief, "I've been looking all over for you. The others are in the city battling the Kaiser Warriors."
Shane nodded, "All right, I'm on my way." As he ran off, he didn't notice the flaming bird up in the tree. The bird continue to watch as he ran farther and farther away.
"Goodbye Shane." Skyla's voice echoed as it flew up into the sky.
"Ninja Storm! Ranger Form Ha! Power of Air!" Shane shouted as he exited the woods. He then ninja streaked into the city where the two warriors were battling Hunter, Dustin, Tori and Blake.
He ran towards them, "Hey guys!" He called to get their attentions. The rangers turned to him and greeted him.
"Hey! Glad you made it!" Tori patted him on the back. The female Kaiser Warrior stepped forward and took out her lance. She spun it around and created a huge gust of wind.
"These guys are a real pain." Shane glared at them. The rangers nodded and all charged forward. The female Kaiser shot her gust of wind knocking Tori, Blake and Hunter back. Shane and Dustin manage to dodge it.
"Ninja Shadow Battle!" Dustin called out, raising his ninja sword. With that Dustin and Shane swiftly hacked and slashed at her behind a screen. When it was all over, the female kaiser went flying on to the ground. The male kaiser started to get angry and started to charge at Dustin and Shane. The other three rangers intercepted him and blocked him off.
"Hurry. Finish her!" Hunter shouted, Charging towards the male kaiser.
Shane nodded, "I can do this!" He closed his eyes and remembered what Skyla said. He snapped his eyes back open, "Battlizer Mode engage!" He shouted. He stood there for a few seconds, thinking that it wasn't going to work, when finally a beam of red light shot out of the morpher and equipped him with his battlizer armor. The female kaiser got up and started to get very angry. She jumped into the air at Shane, who punched her back with a powerful blow. He then ran forward, taking out his sword and slashing at her. He then spun around and slashed her again in the back.
"Nooo!" The female kaiser screamed as she fell to the ground and exploded. The male kaiser was knocked back. He looked up as he saw his teammate destroyed.
"You will pay for this." He shouted and vanished. Shane power down from his battlizer and regrouped with the others. Everyone opened their visors and started to celebrate.
"All right Shane!" Blake patted him on the back.
Hunter chuckled, "It worked this time. Good thing to."
Dustin was jumping around, reenacting the whole battle, "Yeah, he like totally blew her to bits. It was so cool!" Everyone started to laugh at Dustin.
Finally calming down, "Where's Cam?" Shane asked.
Tori turned to him, "He's been working on his secret project. Said he had minor set backs and that he thought we could handle this." Tori explained. Up at the fortress, Vexagon threw the Male Kaiser into a wall.
"You call yourself a warrior!?" He snorted.
The male kaiser stumbled back up and bowed to him, "My lord. I'm sorry. It wont happen again."
Vexagon continue to yell, " This base is completely useless in till its fixed. I cannot destroy the rangers myself without full control of these powers and I have to depend on you useless FOOLS!"
Blade walked into the room, "Do not worry Vexagon. I have a plan."
Vexagon turned to him, "And what is that?"
Blade looked at the male kaiser, "It involves him."
Vexagon turned towards the door and began walking, "Fine. Do your little plan thing. If that kaiser warrior fails, destroy him." And he walked out.
Back on earth, everyone but Cam gathered at Storm Chargers. They were all sitting around on the couch. Kelly was out in the back cleaning.
Hunter leaned forward, "So it was a dream?"
Shane nodded, "I think so. I mean if felt so real. I touched her hand and it was warm and life like." Shane replied. He was telling the gang about what happen to him in the forest. Even they were a bit confused and unsure of what to say.
Dustin shook his head, "Man, that is totally weird. I mean a dream that's real? That's just crazy." Shane frowned, slumping back on the couch and sighing.
"Whatever it was, it meant something." Tori reassured him. Shane nodded, "You still miss her don't you?" She asked.
"Yeah, but not as much anymore." He smiled, "I can't be all down about this forever. She told me to be strong and that's what I'm going to do. We need to stop Vexagon once and for all. We can't have anything stand in our way!"
"Yeah!" Everyone cheered.

Missing You Like Crazy
It was early the next day and there was no sign of Vexagon so Hunter, Dustin and Blake headed to Storm Chargers for work. Kelly was ringing up a few customers when they entered the shops.
She looked up at them as they came over, "Oh hey guys!"
Dustin waved, "Hey Kelly, Were here for work. What do you want us to do?" He asked.
Kelly pointed to the back and replied, "More shipment has come in. Organized the parts, mark the prices and stock them. Hunter, you can ring. I have to go and run some errands." Hunter nodded and went around the corner to the register as Dustin and Blake headed on back. Kelly then grabbed her coat and went out the back exit. The front door opened and Tori came in and took a look around. Hunter's face lit up as the blonde walked to the left part of the store. He waved to get her attention but she didn't notice as she went to the surfboards on the wall. He slowly put his hands down and scratched his head. He just shrugged and went around the counter to try and greet her again.
Hey Tor!" He yelled to get her attention.
She spun around and smiled, "Hey Hunter! I didn't know you were here."
Hunter smirk, "Yeah, I kind of figured. What are you looking for?"
She turned back to all the surfboards, "I need a new board. Mine has a crack in it." She responded. Hunter nodded and looked up at the surfboards with her. The familiar jingle of the door rung as Hunter turned to see Shane coming in, holding his skateboard.
"What's up Shane?" He called out to him. Shane turn and waved to them
"Hey guys!" He gave Hunter a high five and nodded to Tori.
Tori nodded back, "What are you up to?" She asked.
He held up his skateboard, "Ah nothing. Just skating around." He replied. Blake came out from the back, holding a large cardboard box. He placed it on the counter and went over to the gang.
"Tori!" He called out. She extended her hands and he grasped it, pulling her close, "What are you doing here?"
"Surfboard shopping." She responded. Shane stared at the two couples as they started to giggle and flirt with each other.
Shane rolled his eyes, "Do you guys mind?" He got a bit angry, "You guys look so stupid when you do that."
Tori just glared at him, "Come on Blake. I'll give you a hand, unpacking those parts." She pointed to the box. He nodded and they both headed over. Hunter and Shane both walked over to the couch and sat down.
Hunter turned to him, "What's with you man? You get all jealous or something whenever your around those two." He asked. Dustin came out from the back and took a look around. He was cleaning his hands with a rag as he walked over to Shane and Hunter.
He tossed the rag on the table, "What are ya talking about?" He asked.
Shane ignored Dustin and shrugged at Hunter's comment, "I'm not jealous." He responded, "It's just when I see those two I just can't stop thinking about.." He trailed off

In the center of the room was a large chair for Vexagon to sit in. Blade and ScaleFace were looking out the window as Vexagon came up from behind them.
Not bothering to turn around, "Looks like you had a bit of trouble with those powers." Blade spoke up
Vexagon clenched his fist, "My powers aren't stable enough to be fully use to the max but they're strong enough to eliminate you if you talk to me like that again." He snapped at him and then turned to and sat in his chair, "Is the ship fully operational?" He asked.
ScaleFace turned to him and shook his head, "Many of the base's systems have been fried and most of the energy was depleted when you used the ritual room." He answered.
A bit angry, "Well we can't just sit here while the rangers plan their next move. Send the Kaiser warriors down! Have them bring a monster down with them!"
ScaleFace nodded and exited the room. Back down on earth, Shane was skating along the side of the road when he saw something from the corner of his eye. He flipped up his board and caught it in the air and went over to investigate. He ran into a large field where he found the Kaiser Warriors.

"This guy doesn't look so tough." Cam said with confidant.
Shane chuckled, "Looks can be deceiving. This thing is tough." Bulltron charged at them both but the green and red ranger jumped over him. Bulltron quickly turned around and grabbed Cam. Shane tried to slash at him but Bulltron's skin was to tough to do any damage to it. The bull simply tossed Cam into Shane and started to laugh.

"Shoot!" Shane answered.
"Finally." Cam said with a bit of relief, "I've been looking all over for you. The others are in the city battling the Kaiser Warriors."

He stood there for a few seconds, thinking that it wasn't going to work, when finally a beam of red light shot out of the morpher and equipped him with his battlizer armor. The female kaiser got up and started to get very angry. She jumped into the air at Shane, who punched her back with a powerful blow. He then ran forward, taking out his sword and slashing at her. He then spun around and slashed her again in the back.
"Nooo!" The female kaiser screamed as she fell to the ground and exploded. The male kaiser was knocked back. He looked up as he saw his teammate destroyed.
"You will pay for this." He shouted and vanished. Shane power down from his battlizer and regrouped with the others. Everyone opened their visors and started to celebrate.
"All right Shane!" Blake patted him on the back.
Hunter chuckled, "It worked this time. Good thing to."
Dustin was jumping around, reenacting the whole battle, "Yeah, he like totally blew her to bits. It was so cool!" Everyone started to laugh at Dustin.
Finally calming down, "Where's Cam?" Shane asked.
Tori turned to him, "He's been working on his secret project. Said he had minor set backs and that he thought we could handle this." Tori explained. Up at the fortress, Vexagon threw the Male Kaiser into a wall.
"You call yourself a warrior!?" He snorted.
The male kaiser stumbled back up and bowed to him, "My lord. I'm sorry. It wont happen again."
Vexagon continue to yell, " This base is completely useless in till its fixed. I cannot destroy the rangers myself without full control of these powers and I have to depend on you useless FOOLS!"
Blade walked into the room, "Do not worry Vexagon. I have a plan."
Vexagon turned to him, "And what is that?"
Blade looked at the male kaiser, "It involves him."
Vexagon turned towards the door and began walking, "Fine. Do your little plan thing. If that kaiser warrior fails, destroy him." And he walked out.
Back on earth, everyone but Cam gathered at Storm Chargers. They were all sitting around on the couch. Kelly was out in the back cleaning.
Hunter leaned forward, "So it was a dream?"
Shane nodded, "I think so. I mean if felt so real. I touched her hand and it was warm and life like." Shane replied. He was telling the gang about what happen to him in the forest. Even they were a bit confused and unsure of what to say.
Dustin shook his head, "Man, that is totally weird. I mean a dream that's real? That's just crazy." Shane frowned, slumping back on the couch and sighing.
"Whatever it was, it meant something." Tori reassured him. Shane nodded, "You still miss her don't you?" She asked.
"Yeah, but not as much anymore." He smiled, "I can't be all down about this forever. She told me to be strong and that's what I'm going to do. We need to stop Vexagon once and for all. We can't have anything stand in our way!"
"Yeah!" Everyone cheered.
