The Coming of the Fire Storm
Chapter 4
The Calling
It was six weeks after Hunter's fall on the track. His leg was well and truly healed, much to his disappointment, as he was enjoying his vacation. He still hadn't told anyone about his leg already been bandaged when they found him. No one had noticed.
Someone else had helped him, but he didn't know who. He had seen two very pretty faces above him, but his vision had been very cloudy.
Hunter had decided to forget about it, as Sensei had told him, but it would arouse soon enough.
Hunter was at the beach with Blake, Tori and Shane hanging out. He watched as Tori surfed some killer waves in awe. She came out of the clear blue water and brushed her long blonde hair out of her face.
"Wow!" she said. "That was amazing!"
"You certainly were!" said Blake giving her a playful hug.
Hunter frowned, but only Shane noticed.
"Come on navy boy!" said Tori, "you're coming in this time!" She pulled Blake of the ground and ran into the water, with him right behind her.
"Well?" said Shane.
"Well what?"
"Are you still jealous?"
"I never was!" protested Hunter.
"Yeah sure," said Shane smoothly. "You would say that."
"That's not fair Shane," said Hunter.
"It's totally fair," said Shane. "Hey I meant what I said about finding you a date."
"I don't believe in blind dates," said Hunter coolly.
"Of course you don't," said Shane with a small smile. "But those two gals were really hot. Which do you prefer; tall and thin, or small and curvy?"
"Listen Shane," said Hunter growing angrier, "I'm perfectly fine by myself, thank you very much."
"Yeah, but when you're by yourself, you take your anger out on us," said Shane, "why do you have to be stubborn? Why can't you be happy for your brother?"
"I am happy for him, alright!" said Hunter standing up. "I've had enough of this! I'm fine by myself! I do not need anyone!" He broke into a run and sprinted off the beach. Shane sighed.
"His leg's obviously healed well," said Shane to himself.
Tori and Blake came out of the water laughing loudly. They didn't notice that Hunter had gone.
"I really fancy you, you know," said Tori.
"Likewise," said Blake. They were acting as if Shane didn't even exist
"I'll go then, shall I?" asked Shane cockily.
Tori and Blake ignored him.
"Fine," snapped Shane. "See you guys later." And he left.

The next morning, the rangers met at Ninja ops for some battle tactics. Cam was pacing up and down the room, while the others talked with Sensei. Well, Shane, Hunter and Dustin were.
"What I mean, Hunter," said Shane, "is that I think we should all have a Ninja Glider bike."
"No Shane," said Sensei, "the Ninja Glider bike is unique to Hunter."
"Yeah, come on man," said Dustin, "we don't need one. We can have something even better! How about a Ninja hot air balloon!"
"Ha ha ha," said Cam sarcastically. "I certainly don't want to make a hot air balloon! I would take up too much of my time."
Hunter wasn't really listening. He was more aware of why Blake and Tori were late.
"Are Blake and Tori here yet?" asked Hunter.
"I'll see if I can contact them," said Cam, "Oh wait, they've contacted us first. Blake? Are you there? Where are you?"
Blake's voice was heard. He sounded much panicked.
"Hello? Guys, you've got to come quick! There's an alien attacking at the track!"
"We're on it," said Shane. "Ready guys?"
They nodded.
"Ninja Storm!" yelled Dustin and Shane.
"Thunder Storm!" bellowed Hunter.
"Samurai Storm!" shouted Cam.
"Ranger form, ha!" they finished in unison.
They transformed into the Wind, Thunder and Samurai rangers and used their Ninja powers to run quickly to the track.
Blake and Tori had de-morphed. They were covered in bruises. The others' eyes fell on a truly ugly alien. He sprouted long wiry tentacles from is fingers, and he had large yellow eyes. On his head was a red gem.
"Rangers!" he cackled evilly. "I am Tentecruel! I'm here to destroy you!"
"Think again!" yelled Dustin, as he charged forward, only to be picked up by the long tentacles. The alien fired a blast of lightning threw his fingers, shocking Dustin. He fell to the ground lifeless.
"Dustin!" shouted Shane. He darted toward Tentecruel, with his Hawk Blaster firing random shots. The alien whipped Shane across the chest with all the force he could muster, and Shane was sent flying into a bike shed.
"Man, this guy's tough," said Cam.
"Cam, go and see to Blake and Tori," said Hunter, "I'll take care of this over manicured freak."
"Hunter, it could be dangerous," said Cam.
"Just go already!" said Hunter, pushing Cam towards his brother. Hunter pulled out his Thunder Staff, and charged towards Tentecruel.
"You're in trouble now," said Hunter.
"I think not, Crimson Ranger, it is you who is in trouble," said the alien sinisterly.
As Hunter reached Tentecruel, he fired a blast at him, as did the alien at Hunter. The two blasts met, and formed a larger one. Tentecruel used his fingers to hit it towards Hunter.
The blast hit him, and Hunter was knocked off his feet.
"Argh!" he yelled.
Shane and Dustin came back over, and Cam helped a weak Tori and Blake wobble to the others.
"How can we beat this guy?" asked Dustin.
"I've no clue," said Cam.
"You're supposed to be the technical expert!" said Hunter. "It's your job to have a clue!"
"Cool it!" said Shane. "Let's pull it together and destroy him!"
"We have nothing powerful enough to kill him," said Cam. "This is it...the end."
Tori gasped.
"It can't be," she said shakily.
"Unless," said Hunter quietly.
Hunter's thoughts drifted back six weeks before. He heard voices. One was speaking to him.
*Flashback*
"If you ever need help, just call us. You'll know who we are when the time is right!"
*End Flashback*
"I know what to do!" cried Hunter, and he stepped forward. "I call upon the Fire Storm to aid us in this fight!"
The area went silent. All that could be heard was the gentle wind. Suddenly, engines were heard in the distance, coming closer and closer.
The rangers turned their heads to see the source of the noise.
Two bikes, much like the rangers bikes, had halted. Two masked riders were upon them, dressed in black. The bikes reared, and sped towards the alien.
"Hey!" shouted Tentecruel. "Who invited you?" he said to the strangers.
They jumped off their bikes, and stood tall.
"Fire Storm! Ranger Form, ha!" they yelled.
There, stood together, were the Pink and Purple Fire Ninja Rangers.
