Chapter two
Simone rushed down the steps of the house she was staying in with her brother to answer the door. When she opened it, she saw a familiar face all dressed in Navy with a Navy cap on his head. "Hi. It's Blake isn't it?"
Blake looked taken back. He was about to introduce himself but she beat him to it. "Yeah it is. How did you..."
"Our Sensei showed us photo's of what you guys look like. He didn't want us to end up meeting with imposters." Simone smiled and held out her hand. "I'm Simone by the way."
"Nice to meet you Simone. Ah, your English, I know that accent anywhere." Blake entered the house and closed the door behind him. He thought for a while as he did this. "Wait a minute, how do I know that you're not an imposter? We weren't shown any pictures."
"Hmm, well if I was, wouldn't I have made my move by now?"
"I guess so. But that's not enough."
Simone lifted her left arm revealing her morpher. "How about this?"
"It could be a fake."
"Well, then how about this?" Simone waved two fingers on her right hand and drew out the form of a lightning bolt in the air, she then pressed the activating button on her morpher while saying, "Lightning Storm, ranger form." Instantly a pink aura surrounded her and she changed from wearing civilian clothing to wearing her pink ranger uniform.
"That's good proof." Blake said as she powered down. "So where is your brother?"
"On the phone to our Sensei. He'll be down soon. Do you want a drink while we wait?"
"Nah, I'm alright. Nice place you have here."
"It's my cousins place. She said there was no point in staying in a hotel when she has room here." They fell silent for a little while. Blake wanted to know more about why she and her brother were there, but he knew that would be explained later. Simone broke the silence. "So, I hear your on a motocross tour."
"Yeah. Do you follow motocross?"
"Oh please. The only sport she follows is football or what you would call soccer." A new voice said. "Hi, I'm Jake."
Hunter paced the floor in Ninja Ops. He desperately wanted to know what was going on. If Lothor was to return, himself along with his friends would be sitting ducks with out their ranger powers.
Dustin watched him walk back and forth. "Dude, your like making me dizzy."
"Yeah man, sit down. They'll be here soon." Shane put his hand on Hunter's shoulder.
They all looked towards the entrance as they heard Blake, Jake and Simone descend down the steps. "Hey guys," Blake said to his friends. "This is the Lightning ninja academy's Red and Pink rangers, Jake Lewis and his sister Simone."
Everyone walked forward to greet the newcomers. Dustin grinned. "Simone, that's French isn't it?" Dustin's friends looked at him. "What? I might be a goofball sometimes but I do know some things."
"So your French then?" Hunter asked.
Blake spoke before the siblings could. "Bro..."
He was cut off by Hunter. "Hey, I can do this." He turned to the two rangers. "Bonjour..."
"Wait." Simone held up her hand. "Before you go any further."
"You speak English."
"Very much so."
"Dude I could have told you that." Dustin informed the former Crimson power ranger. "I said her name was French, not her."
Tori laughed and shook her head a she walked forward. "Never mind them. I'm Tori and this is Shane, Dustin, Hunter, Cam and Sensei Watanabe."
Sensei walked forward with a smile on his face. Hunter's mistake obviously cheered him up a little. "I am glad you can be with us today. I have heard many good things from Sensei Wang. I wish we were meeting under better circumstances."
"Me too." Jake answered. "Hopefully we can all sort out Madas and get to know each other better."
"Madas?" Blake stood next to Tori. "Who's that?"
"A very powerful being. He joined forces with an ex student of our ninja academy named Emma. When Madas first appeared on the scene, Sensei Wang had no other choice but to pick four students to become Power Rangers. He chose the best students and Emma didn't agree with his decision. So she turned to the craft and decided to fight against us with Madas. You see, she just wants one thing and that's power." Jake explained.
Shane folded his arms. "So she wants to bring Lothor back for more power?"
Simone continued for her elder brother. "They both do. And if we don't stop them, they will succeed. When we became rangers, Sensei warned us about a crystal that could take away our powers. It can also give others power if they don't have it and in the wrong hands it could be very dangerous. Emma knows this, so we have to find it before her. The thing is, we can't pin point its exact location."
"I've heard about that crystal." Cam stood up. "It's kept in an unknown cave in Blue Bay Harbour. No-one knows its exact location."
"Oh we might know." A blonde female who was not Tori said.
"Yeah." Her brunette sister excitedly exclaimed beside her.
"Hey, why weren't we invited to this party?" Kapri and Marah had been eavesdropping on the meeting since the newcomers arrived.
"Oh look, new people." Marah ran towards them. "Hi, I'm Marah and this is Kapri. So what's going on?"
Cam looked towards Sensei who nodded. "There is a chance that Lothor could come back. So we need to get to the crystal before Madas and Emma does. And it seems you two will be the ones to lead us there.
Meanwhile...
"Dammit," Madas slammed his fist on the arm of his seat. "We're getting nowhere. We have to find that crystal before the rangers do. If they get to it first and destroy it, we will not able to get Lothor back."
"Oh, I can guarantee that we'll get that crystal." Emma held up a necklace in the air with a tiny gem on the pendant. It glowed green, pulsating for a while before turning clear. "One way or another, we'll get it."
A/N: I told you the second chapter would be out soon. Though I didn't think it would be this quick. I'll get the third chapter out as soon as possible. If I don't, then you can bug me in the review section.
