Chapter 15: Ranger Recruit Part II
(Last Time on Ninja Storm Revealed)
The Rangers have lost all their morphing energy. Cam has gone back in time to find another source of power to help the Rangers. Kimberly's Ninjetti powers are gone and now Lothor's draining her life energy. What is to come of all this?
(Now the Conclusion)
Hunter was slowly pacing back and forth before he finally sat down. He looked over at his friends before looking at the ground. He couldn't keep his mind off his mother. He couldn't lose her, not now, not after everything they have been through. He rubbed his forehead and let out a heavy sigh. "Hang in there, mom, please just hang in there," he murmured.
(In another City)
Someone drove up to Tommy's house and saw that he wasn't home. "Good," the person mumbled. The person walked up to his mailbox and looked through is mail. The person lifted up another letter from Kimberly. "Mine now," the hissed quietly. The person took the letter from the mail and stuck it in their jacket pocket. The person put the rest of the mail back into the mailbox, got back into their car, and drove off.
When the person got home, the person took the letter and threw it in the fireplace.
(Blue Bay Harbor)
Hunter looked at his hand to see that he was fading. He looked up when he saw that his friends were fading as well. "What's happening?" Tori asked.
"You're being put back to where you originally stood when time froze," Sensei replied.
(The Battlefield)
Everything unfroze and they looked up to see the monster about to destroy them when a blast hit it. They looked up to see a ship of some kind going their way. The Green Ranger destroyed the monster before jumping down and landing in front of them. The Green Ranger de-morphed and saw that it was Cam. "Hey guys," he greeted. They ran over to him with smiles on their faces.
"Cool powers, dude," Dustin commented.
Cam nodded, but then Lothor started throwing blasts at them. "LET'S GO!" Hunter shouted. He grabbed Tori's arm as they tried to dodge the blasts. One hit too close and they were thrown off their feet.
"Thunder Rangers, you two are being fools if you believe you can save your mother now without your powers," Lothor taunted.
Hunter and Blake stood up. "GIVE US OUR MOTHER BACK!" Blake shouted. Lothor laughed.
"We've already gone through this. I'm going to drain all the energy she has," Lothor answered.
Dustin and Shane grabbed onto Hunter's arms. "YOU MONSTER!" Hunter shouted. Lothor bowed slightly.
"Why thank you," he answered with a cackle.
Hunter and Blake glared at Lothor. "Don't worry, you'll get her back…her lifeless body," Lothor added. Cam grabbed onto their arms.
"We have to get back to Ninja Ops," Cam insisted.
They stood still for a second before leaving again.
(Ninja Ops)
When they returned to Ninja Ops, they were able to open the container that held their powers and got their powers back. "Yes!" Dustin cheered. Hunter looked at Blake. Blake nodded and they headed towards the door.
"Where are you going?" Tori asked.
"To get our mother back," Blake replied.
When they were far away from Ninja Ops, Hunter looked at Blake. "Ready, bro?" He asked. Blake nodded.
"Ready," Blake replied.
"THUNDER STORM, RANGER FORM!" They shouted.
They morphed and looked up at the sky, knowing that Lothor's ship sat there with their mother inside. "Blake, you distract the kelzaks and Zurgane. I'll get mom out," Hunter informed.
"You got it," Blake replied.
They got onto Lothor's ship.
(Lothor's Ship)
Hunter and Blake looked around the ship. Hunter pulled out a scanner. "Where did you get that?" Blake asked.
"Mom's friend, Billy, gave it to her just incase. Thought it'd be fitting to bring it out," Hunter replied.
Blake nodded. Hunter tapped some keys on the scanner. "Okay, kelzaks and Zurgane are surrounding mom's cell," he informed. Blake nodded again.
"Don't worry, bro, I've got it covered," Blake assured him.
"Be careful," Hunter cautioned.
Blake nodded before pulling out his staff. "Hey, did you guys miss me?" Blake asked.
"Get him," Zurgane ordered.
Kelzaks charged at Blake and the Navy Thunder Ranger fought them off. Hunter stood around the corner waiting for Zurgane to get away from the door. Blake saw that Zurgane wasn't moving away from the door and he threw his staff at the general. "You'll pay for that," Zurgane snapped. Hunter then took the chance and ran towards the cell.
Hunter ran through the doors and he saw his mother lying on the table. "Mom!" He gasped. He ran over and undid the straps that held her arms and legs. He realized he couldn't move her with the machine still taking her energy away. "THUNDER STAFF!" He shouted. He raised the staff above his head and brought it down on the machine. He covered Kimberly from the explosion before picking her up and running out of the cell.
Hunter came out of the cell with Kimberly in his arms. "BLAKE!" He shouted. Blake looked up. "I'VE GOT HER LET'S GO!" Hunter called.
"Right," Blake answered.
Zurgane looked up just as Hunter ninja streaked off the ship. "NO!" He shouted. Blake grinned behind his helmet.
"See ya," he laughed.
Then he too ninja streaked off the ship.
(Ninja Ops)
The Rangers looked up when Hunter and Blake came back, still in Ranger form, but in Hunter's arms was Kimberly. "Is she okay?" Dustin asked.
"Clear off the table," Hunter instructed.
Dustin, Shane, and Tori pushed all the stuff on the table onto the floor and Hunter set his mother down on the table. Hunter and Blake de-morphed and Cam came over with a scanner. He ran it up and down Kimberly's body. "Is she going to be okay?" Hunter asked.
"All her Ninjetti powers are gone. Half of her life energy is gone," Cam replied.
"What do we do?" Blake asked.
"You must give Kimberly some of your own life energy," Sensei answered.
"It won't be that easy. Once you two do give some of your life energy to her, it'll make you weak and you won't be able to morph for awhile," Cam informed.
The two brothers looked at Kimberly. Blake nodded his head. "Let's do it," he insisted. Hunter nodded in agreement.
"Yeah," Hunter agreed.
The Wind Rangers stood back and watched their friends sacrifice some of their life energy to save their mother.
Hunter held onto Kimberly's hand and placed his other hand on her forehead. Blake took Kimberly's other hand and he placed his other hand over her heart. They closed their eyes and concentrated. Hunter started to glow crimson, Blake started to glow navy, and Kimberly started to glow pink.
After a few minutes, the boys pulled back and suddenly felt very dizzy. Tori ran over to Blake and helped his sit up while Dustin helped Hunter sit up. "You two okay?" Shane asked.
"We'll be fine," Hunter replied.
Cam walked back over with his scanner and scanned Kimberly again. "Well?" Blake asked.
"You gave her enough that the other half of her life energy has been restored," Cam replied.
Hunter shook his head slightly. "Whoa…feeling very lightheaded here," he commented.
"That's your body reacting to the loss of energy," Cam informed.
"Will they be okay?" Tori asked.
"They should be fine. Their Ranger powers should give them the life energy they need back," Cam replied.
"For now, let them rest," Sensei instructed.
The Wind Rangers watched as the Thunder Rangers slowly lost consciousness. "Leave them here, they will be watched over," Sensei added. Tori and Dustin set Hunter and Blake down by Kimberly before leaving.
