The Coming of the Fire Storm
Chapter 2
Bulls Eye!
"Hey! Blake!" yelled a pretty blonde girl.
Blake wheeled around to see his dreams, Tori running up to him.
"It's good to see you Tori," said Blake, feeling a little light- headed. "What have you been up to today?" That was the most interesting thing Blake could think of.
"Well, I rode some pretty awesome waves earlier," said Tori, "and I saw this really cute guy down at the beach!" she finished triumphantly, though she had her small unique shine in her eyes.
Blake felt a twinge of envy.
"That's great, Tori," he mumbled.
Tori smiled.
"You're not jealous, are you?"
"Me?" he said, trying to sound surprised. "No, no. All I want is for you to be happy."
Tori felt her heart melting warmly. Before she knew what she was doing, she kissed him on his dark cheek.
"Hey, I could get used to this!" said Blake.
"Good," said Tori. She moved her face closer to his, about to give him another kiss, before Hunter showed up.
"Hey dudes!" he said coming between them and putting an arm round each of them.
"Hey, Hunter!" said Tori, forcing a smile. Why did he have to wreck that perfect moment?
"What are you up to later Tori?" asked the dirty blonde.
"Well, before you arrived," began Tori, "I was going to ask out your younger brother."
"You were?" asked Blake in disbelief.
"You were?" repeated Hunter. "Man, I'm so sorry."
"Hey, don't sweat it," said Tori patting him on the back. "So, Blake, do you want to go out with me later?"
Blake looked uncomfortable. He was torn between his crush and his brother. Who should he choose?
"Tor, I've got plans later, sorry," confessed Blake.
Tori's face fell.
"No problem," she said.
"No!" said Hunter stepping forward. "Blake, we'll arrange our race for another time! Go with Tori, you'll have a great time."
Blake looked into his brother ice blue eyes and saw that he was sincere.
"If you say so, bro," said Blake, feeling a little better now that his brother was on his side.
"I do say so," said Hunter, "Go and enjoy yourself."
Blake gave his brother a warm hug.
"I won't forget this Hunter," said Blake, "I'll make it up to you, I promise."
Hunter nodded.
"Go on, you crazy lovebirds, get out of here!" he said playfully.
Blake grabbed Tori's hand, and they ran outside Ninja ops, laughing and shouting. This made Hunter feel very put out indeed.
He also left Ninja ops, walking slowly with his head down.
"Just because Blake has someone and I don't, doesn't mean I can sulk," Hunter said to himself. "I'll go for a ride by myself now, just to practise, without my brother."
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Once Hunter was back at the track, he went to the bike shed to get his bike. He wheeled it out, still thinking about his brother.
"I can't come between them, I won't," he said as he placed his bike helmet on his blonde head.
He started his bike and sped off.
He was riding freely, without a care in the world. All thought seemed to have left his mind.
"I won't race on this track," he said, "I'll go somewhere else."
He turned his bike and went off the track, heading into a forestry area.
Hunter was weaving in and out through trees and plants. This was what life was about; getting away from your problems...or was it?
Hunter suddenly found he was slowing down a little. He pushed down his accelerator to speed up.
Now he was going far too fast. Hunter had no control over the speed. What was happening?
The bike seemed to have a mind of its own. It was spinning in all directions, before turning sharply into another.
"What's up with this bike?" panted Hunter. He was scared. This had never happened before.
Behind a few large trees, two evil space ninjas were giggling continually.
"Oooh!" screamed Marah. "This is so much fun! Watching the crimson ranger spin out of control!"
"This is taking too long!" spat Kapri. "Let's speed things up!"
She stood up, took aim, and fired a bright pink blast at Hunter.
"Argh!!!" bellowed Hunter, as he fell off his bike. He tumbled down a steep hill, knocking his head on many rocks. He landed at the bottom, unconscious.
"Bulls eye!" cried Marah. "Uncle will be pleased!"
"Come on," said Kapri, "let's not stick around." And with that, they vanished.
Down at the bottom of the hill, blood began to stain a little of Hunter's hair. He wasn't moving, and his breathing was very faint. He was there for a few moments, before help arrived.
They were two females. One was tall, skinny and had shoulder length black hair. The other was shorter, and curvier, with long fiery red hair.
The two ran over to Hunter, and attempted to revive him.
"Hurry up," said the black haired. "We might loose him." She was standing behind, letting the other do the work.
"I'm trying!" said the red head, and she began to perform mouth to mouth.
Hunter grunted.
"He's waking up!" she said.
"Come on then!" said the other, pulling her friend off the ground.
"Wait!" said the red head, as Hunter began to open his eyes. "Crimson ranger! If you ever need help, just call us. You'll know who we are when the time is right!" The two disappeared.
Hunter regained consciousness, and sat up.
"Hello?" he said faintly. "Is anyone there? Ouch!" He found that he was injured, but someone had bandaged his broken leg.
"How strange." He thought.
