*-Thoughts-*

Chapter 1 - An Old Friend Returns.

"Come on guys." Shane called to them.

"Shane what's so important about this person anyway?" Tori asked.

Shane had received a letter during the week that this person was returning to Blue Bay Harbour and for the rest of the week he was acting abnormally happy.

"I haven't seen Sapph for a long time."

"Dude the way you're acting it sounds like you two used to date." Dustin said.

"We were just really good friends Dustin that's all." Shane replied.

"You could have fooled us." Blake said.

"Tell you what if you guys don't want to meet her fine. I'll just go meet her myself." Turning and walking off.

"Shane." Tori said.

Shane kept on walking.

"Well that went well." Hunter said.

Sapphire Roberts skated around the city, she was on her way to meet an old friend of hers. *-It's been such long time since I've seen him. I wonder if he still looks the same.-* she was so busy thinking that she wasn't paying any attention to where she was going and bumped into someone.

"Oh I'm so sorry." She apologised a little embarrassed "Here let me help you up." Helping the guy up.

"Don't worry about it, but I'd watch where you're going if I were you." he said.

"Are you sure you're okay?" she asked.

"Yeah."

"Okay." She smiled and skated off.

The guy smiled and watched Sapphire before continuing on his way.

Sapphire reached the place they said they would meet and looked around not seeing him.

"Come on , where are you?" she wondered aloud. *-Am I early?-* she then thought *-Mind you he could be here already I could've skated straight pass him and not known it.-* she sighed.

"Sapphire." A voice said from behind her.

She quickly turned round wondering who it was that called her name which resulted in her losing her balance and ending up on the floor.

"Hey sorry Sapph." they apologised helping her up.

Sapphire smiled she recognised the voice immediately.
"No worries Shane, no harm done." She lied. When she had fallen she landed on an old skating injury, which was now giving her immense pain.

"You sure? You look in a little pain."

"Honestly I'm fine." She smiled though it was a little forced. "You're looking well." Changing the subject.

"Thanks, so are you. You all unpacked?" Shane asked.

"Not really, wanted to get out and about first. You wouldn't believe how much I've missed this place."

"Need some help?" he offered.

Before Sapphire could reply Shane's morpher went off.

"Ah listen how about we meet later at Storm Chargers there's a few people I want you to meet." Shane said walking backwards.

"Okay sure."

Shane then ran off. *-Okay that was weird.-* she thought as she skated home, but stopped suddenly when she realised Shane hadn't given a time. *-I'll go after my unpacking-* she thought and continued on her way.

*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*

"Man that was one intense battle." Blake said as they all returned to ninja ops.

"Tell me about it." Tori says.

"How'd your meeting with your friend go?" Hunter asked Shane.

"Oh no I totally forgot. I said I'd meet her at Storm Chargers."

"You'd better get going dude." Dustin said slapping Shane on the back.

"Actually I said I'd also bring you guys with me."

"Next time Shane… leave us out." Blake said.

(A couple minutes later at Storm Chargers)

"So... where is she?" Tori asked.

"I don't understand I said I'd meet her here." Shane answered a little confused.

"Face it dude she isn't coming." Hunter said.

"Guess you're right." He sighed.

He started to walk out when he bumped into someone who was running in they both landed on the floor. The others ran over to help.

"Shane, we really must stop meeting like this."

"Yeah, it hurts too much." Shane joked as Hunter and Dustin helped him up.

Sapphire laughed as Tori and Blake helped her up.
"Betcha thought I wasn't gonna turn up."

"The thought hadn't even crossed my mind." Shane answered as he looked at Hunter.

"Yeah right."

"Aren't going to introduce us Shane?" Tori asked.

"Ah yeah. Sapphire this is Tori, Blake, Dustin and Hunter." Gesturing to each of them "Guys this is Sapphire."

"Nice to meet you all."

"Yeah Shane's been going on about meeting you all week." Dustin said to which Shane hit him.

"Dude."

Sapphire smiled.
"Well I gotta go still have a few things to unpack. Which reminds me Shane your offer to help still stand?"

"Sure."

"We'll help too. If you don't mind more people that is." Tori said.

"We will?" Blake said a little surprised.

"Sure the more the merrier."

"Uh… I'd love but… uh I'm working at moment." Dustin said trying to think of an excuse.

"Uh…yeah me too." Blake says.

"Yeah." Hunter said.

Sapphire smiled again.
"No problem." And started off home with Shane and Tori following.

"Man that was close." Dustin said.

"Yeah what's more boring than unpacking boxes." Blake agreed.

At Ninja ops -

"Why does she seem so familiar?" Cam wondered.

"I fear there is more to her than meets the eye."

"Are you saying that she could be one of Lothor's creatures?"

"Who could?" Hunter asked as he walked in with Blake and Dustin.

Cam turned round.
"That girl you guys were just with. Who is she?"

"She's a friend of Shane's." Blake answered.

"Why?" Dustin asked.

"She reminds me of something." Cam replied.

"Something? Dude don't you mean someone?"

"No I mean something."

"Do you by chance know her name?" Sensei asked.

"Sapphire." Hunter said.

Cam turned back to his father.
"Do you think it could be?"

"It is a possibility but we must not jump to conclusions."

"Yo Cam what's going on?" Dustin asked slightly confused.

"Sorry guys but until we can be sure I can't say." Cam said.
