Chapter 7: Deception

Blake stormed out into the hallways, he wasn't paying attention to where he was going. He turned the corner and bumped into someone, looking up to see the crimson blonde, he backed away a little.

"Whoa man." Hunter laughed, "What's the matter?"

Blake kept a serious look on his face, "I'm not going to kill you."

Hunter arched his eyebrows as Blake brushed past him and towards him room. Giving the most distraught look, he continued towards the main headquarters room where Shane and Cameron were still in. He entered and the two of them looked at him, Cam too had a strange look on his face.

"What's going on?" He looked around, "I just saw my brother and he was totally freaked out."

"Well, I wouldn't blake him." Shane scratched his head, "He found out what will happen to him in the future."

"What do you mean?" Hunter was a bit lost, "I don' t get it."

"He's suppose to kill you man." Cam blurted out, "Crazy I know, but that's what these records are saying."

"What?" Hunter stormed forward and looked at the control panel, "Are you serious?"

"We just read Cam's." Shane glanced at the man in green, "It was strange, it didn't make sense."

"Forget it." Cam changed the subject and exited out of the program, "We don't need to know our future."

"How is Tori doing?" The one in red asked, "She seamed a bit freaked."

"She was.." Hunter sighed, "I don't want to talk about it. I wonder what we named our kid though." He shrugged.

"Does it matter?" Dustin's voice echoed behind, "You were never around when it was born."

Hunter spun around, arching his eyebrows, "What do you mean?"

Dustin took a few steps forward, "Weren't you looking at your death records. You were killed."

"By Blake right!?" Shane and Cam chorus, "That's what we read." Shane added.

"No." Dustin explained, "Blake was caught before he could succeed. But someone else finished the job. Guess more then one person was jealous that you were going out with Tori."

"Who?" Hunter muttered.

Dustin just laughed, "We actually don't really know." He reluctantly replied, "That data was never put in the computer."

"So what's our plan?" Cam adjusted his glasses, "We going after Sakura?"

"As soon as were ready." He responded, "Better get working on those morphers."

"Yeah.." Cam muttered, "I'll do that."

------------

Tori exited her room, she finally had calmed down a bit. Walking down the halls, she started to hear smashing and a bit of yelling coming from Blake's room. Turning, she slowly opened the door and watched as Blake threw a chair at a wall mirror. The glass shattered and fell, she opened the door completely wide and gasped. He turned towards her.

"Can I help you?" He asked angrily, "If you haven't noticed, I'm a bit busy."

"Yeah, I can see that." She looked around at the mess, "What the heck are you doing!?"

"Letting off steam." He sat on the bed, "I'm just a little ticked."

"I've seen you mad before." She leaned against the door, "And this is beyond you normally being mad."

He stood up and turned away, "Whatever Tori."

"Don't whatever me." She took a few steps forward, "What is the matter?"

"I just want to go home." He sighed, "That's all."

"You and me both." She forced a smile as she stuck her hands in her pocket, "I think I had enough of the future for more then one day."

She walked over and sat down next to him, he turned to her and laughed weakly. His smile faded away, Tori looked into his eyes, it seamed like he wanted to say something.

"Do you ever think.." He started, "Do you ever think you can change your future?"

"I don't know." She replied, "I've been wondering about that too."

He stands up, "People always wonder what would happen to them in the future, and when we find out, we all wish we hadn't." He pointed out, "It's pretty weird."

"Maybe it's a good thing." She explained, "Maybe this can help us decide what course we don't want to take, so we don't have to make the mistake before it happens."

"Perhaps." He said, "But, we don't know what to do to change the course yet. We don't even know how it happened."

"You're right." Tori fell back on the bed, "Everything might come so unexpected."

Blake looked down at the shatter mirror, seeing the thousand images of his face starring back at him. Tori sat back up from the bed and hoped onto her feet, heading towards the door. Blake looked up just in time to see her wave and closed the door. The blonde decided she best go find Dustin, and talk to him about what they were going to with Sakura. Heading around the corner, she stopped and noticed Dustin down the hall talking to a guard. Curious of what they were talking about, she backed against the wall and listened closely.

"Is everything going according to plan?" Dustin crossed his arms, "I don't have time to waste."

"Everything is ready, we are just waiting for that Watanabe guy to activate the morphers." The solider responded, "I presume they have taken the bait."

Dustin grinned and walked past him and stopped, "There eating every word out of my hands." He turned his neck at him, "It's only a matter of time before I get the power."

"Those reports must have down a number on them!" He laughed.

"Yes." He grinned, "Now contact the damn wind and thunder academy, let me know if Sakura has arrived."

"And the prisoner?" He asked, "What do you want to do with him?"

"Get rid of him." Dustin replied, "Last thing I need, is him to ruin my plans."

Tori gasped, as the words she heard ran through her head. She bolted off the wall, and ran across the hall way towards the other side to get to the headquarters. Dustin turned and saw Tori running by, right then and there he knew that she over heard. He used his ninja streak to quickly catch up with her, stopping right in front of her.

"Dustin!" She backed away, "I heard everything, you were planning something all along weren't you!?" She sneered.

He just laughed, "I didn't think you were so nosy." He glared

"Yeah well." She smirked, "So how long have you been lying to us? Was Sakura lineage a lie to?"

"Of course not." He chuckled, "That I told the truth."

"What is it that you want?" She shook her head, "What has happened to you?"

"I can' t allow you to leave." He crossed his arm.

Tori tried to run past him, but he moved in her way. She lunged a punch at him, but he leaned to the side and knocked it out of the way, before grabbing her arm and slamming his knee into her stomach. Gasping for breath, she stumbled back and got into a fighting postion.

"Don't make me hurt you." She clenched her fist, "I will."

Dustin just rolled his eyes as he ran to the side of the wall and jumped off, slamming his foot into her face. She spun around and fell to the ground hard. Groaning, she flipped back up and high kicked him in the face. She then roundhouse kicked him back, knocking him to the ground. Taking the time to escape, she took a few steps back and bolted forward, jumping over him. The brunette grabbed her ankle in midair and she fell to the ground hard. Rolling on her back, she kicked him off and scrambled to his feet. Dustin ran after her as she turned the corner nearing the door where Shane and the others were. Dustin grabbed her by the hair and pulled her back, wrapping his hands around her mouth. Her screams muffled as he dragged her back, spun her around and slammed his fist in her face. She fell to the ground groaning, slipping out of conscious.

Cam was running test, he was in near completion in storing his old samurai morpher. Typing a few things in the computer, he stuck the ball in a machine capsule and hit a few buttons. Energy surged through it, sending data to the computer. Hunter was pacing around, he didn't like waiting around while Sakura was still in danger. Sighing a bit, he turned to Cam.

"Are we almost done!?" He asked, "How long do we have to wait?"

"Calm down." Shane laughed, "These things take time."

"You think by now, you learn patients." Marah added, "Nothing will go right if we just rush in."

Cam hit a few more buttons and the energy of the machine began to intensify, beginning to glow green a bit. He starred at the monitor as the energy level began to increase and power was restored to the moprher. The one advantage of the future was advanced technology. No old fashion way, even though he had originally lost his morpher he had managed to get it back. A different story all together. The door opened and Blake appeared, he looked around as he saw the machine.

"Tori not here?" He asked, "I thought she said she was swinging by."

"Guess not." Hunter shrugged, "Probably cause I'm here."

"We'll look for her after were done with this." Cam suggested, "I might need her help in something anyways."

--------------

Tori groaned as she woke up, she pushed felt the cold hard cement beneath her. Opening her eyes, she found herself in a dark cold dungeon. Rubbing her head, she stood up and looked around. Only a small ounce of light from the moon came threw the window. She turned and saw the door, and ran to it, trying to break it open. It was no use.

"Somebody!" She screamed, "Somebody help me!!"

"They wont hear you." A soft voice from the corner spoke, "I already tried."

Tori spun around and saw a figure hiding in the shadows. She leaned against the wall and squinted her eyes, wondering it was. The figure stood up and came out and into the light. Showing his messy brunette hair and torn up yellow clothing.

"Hey Tori." He spoke.

"What!?" She screamed, "Dustin!?"
