Chapter nine

Shane and Dustin arrived at Ninja ops after Cam appraised them of the situation.

"Where's Tori and Hunter?" Shane enquired as soon as he got there.

Cam stood up to greet them. "They're on their way. They'll be here soon."

"What about that Emma chick? I mean I thought she was meant to be with Simone?" Dustin felt a little nervous after seeing what she could do when they fought her, he wondered if they could take her without ranger powers if she turned to the evil side again.

"She is with Simone."

"Nah man. I see Simone, who is wearing some weird but neat threads." He said pointing at the woman standing next to Cam. "But I don't see Emma around, unless she can become invisible."

"Erm, Dustin?" Cam cleared his throat. "This is Sabrina, not Simone."

Shane snickered while Dustin smiled sheepishly. "I know that." The latter said. "I was just testing Shane to see if he knew."

Shane put his hand on Dustin's shoulder and tapped it a few times. "Sure man, sure."

It didn't take long for Tori and Hunter to arrive. Hunter's eyes widened while Tori's shocked face turned into a smile.

"Wow. You look exactly like Simone." Tori said as she approached Sabrina.

"I noticed." Sabrina said shyly. She looked up at Hunter unable to believe it and smiled. "Matthew?"

"Not quite." Sensei interjected as he walked into the room. "This is Hunter, from our time."

"Oh." Sabrina nodded. "I'm sorry, you just haven't changed. Well except for the colour of your hair. Matthew had brown hair."

"So I've heard." Hunter stood by Shane feeling a bit uncomfortable with the situation. He really wished that Blake was there with them at the moment.

Hearing the entrance to Ninja Ops open, all tunred to see who had arrived.

"Expecting someone else?" Emma said as she walked into the room, closely followed by Simone.

"Well Emma, I never expected that we'd ever see you down here." Tori put her hands on her hips.

Emma raised her eyebrows at the little challenge. "Things have changed."

"So I see. Hopefully this is a one off."

"Tori, Emma, stop this now. We need to work together to sort this out. We will talk about your indifferences later when this is over." Sensei said putting an end to the argument that was brewing.

"Father's right. Now Emma, how exactly did you summon Sabrina here?" Cam asked. He took notes on his computer when Emma went into detail of what happened.

"Do you know how to send her back?" The former red ranger asked. "No offence Sabrina." He said quickly.

Sabrina just smiled and nodded.

Emma shook her head at Shane's question. "I summoned her here to give Simone an answer. Until Simone finds out the truth, Sabrina is stuck here."

"Do I have to stay down here if I am stuck here?" Sabrina asked. "It's just I'd like to see your world. To see how things have changed." She glanced at Hunter. She really did miss Matthew.

"Trust me there have been some big changes since your time," Dustin stated. "but if you are allowed out, people are going to wonder why you are dressed like that."

"Actually, they won't." Simone stepped forward. "I brought some clothes with me, just incase you were required to go out in public."

"So can I go out?"

Sensei nodded. "As long as you stick with one of the others, I don't see any problem with you going out in public."

Cam adjusted his glasses. "At least when you go back after what you've seen, you can't change our futures."

"How's that?" Dustin frowned. Technically if Sabrina went back and told everyone what she saw, their futures and lives as they knew it could change.

"Because...well...she's..." Shane stuttered, not wanting to offend Sabrina.

"I'm kind of a ghost." Sabrina answered for him. She accepted the clothes from Simone and thanked her. As she took the clothes, she felt a little electric shock from Simone. "I'm going to get changed."

"I'll show you where you can go." Simone guided her to another room. "I'm sorry about the little spark. I didn't do it on purpose, it's just that I'm still a bit nervous around you."

"That's alright. I understand. It must be overwelming to see another you, especially one thats deceased." Sabrina stepped into the designated room and proceeded to get changed while Simone waited outside. "So do you not control water like me?"

"No. I have the power of lightning, which explains the electric shock earlier. Sorry about that."

"You apologised already." Sabrina exited the room wearing a pink top and denim shorts. She looked down at herself. "I cannot believe women in this time wear these clothes. In my time, we wouldn't dare show our legs like this or wear male clothing."

"Oh, you mean trousers. Well times have changed" Simone laughed.

"You know, I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw Hunter, but then you look exactly like me except for the hair length so I shouldn't have been so shocked when I saw him." A grin appreared on Sabrina's face. "There is another of your friends who looks similar to someone from my past."

"Who?"

"I think I heard him being called Dustin. He looks just like the powerful wizard who bestowed my power."

"Wow. This just get's stranger and stranger."

"Dude, it's like Simone has a twin and both their names begin with the letter S. How cool is that?" Dustin exclaimed. The others looked at him and laughed at his excitement.

"So if Sabrina couldn't give Simone an answer how does she get back to where she came from?" Tori enquired.

"Well father and I had the idea of sending someone back in time to find the answer." Cam explained.

Hunter looked up. "Which is where I come in."

"And me, remember." Simone said as she entered the room again with Sabrina.
