The next morning, Hunter walked in ninja Ops. At the entrance to the main room he paused and looked around. Dustin was his cheerful self, touching everything Cam had made and making a mess. Cam was working at his computer, wincing every time Dustin dropped something. And always received the answer 'Dude, I got it' Shane was doing tricks with his skateboard. Cam had given up on trying to stop Shane since it was likely he would do it again. Tori and Blake sat on the couch, watching through a clothes magazine. Hunter snickered and walked in, 'accidently' tripping Shane.

" Sorry, Shane, didn't see you there." Hunter pulled Shane to his feet.

" No worries, dude." Shane replied.

Hunter forced a smile. This made him sick. He would rather just fight it out with him. He sat in a chair at the table, looking though a motocross magazine. Dustin joined him.

" So are we still one for that race tonight?" Dustin asked. Hunter forced another smile.

" Of course." He replied, with something like an evil look in his eyes. Shane first, Dustin later.

" Cool. I'm so gonna win." Dustin joked.

" Wanna bet?" Hunter said rather harsh. Dustin looked at him strange and then returned to annoying Cam. Hunter mentally cursed himself. He had to be careful or they would know something was wrong with him and he couldn't afford that. Not yet. He walked over to Dustin and apologized ,saying he had a crappy day. Dustin believed him. Good.

" Rangers, It is time for training." Sensei spoke. "Shane, you go with Hunter." Hunter smiled. Perfect. "Tori, you go with Cam and Blake goes with Dustin."

" Yes, sensei." The six rangers bowed and walked out. Shane and Hunter headed into the forest.

" Bring it on." Shane challenged, stepping a couple of feet a way from him.

" You're gonna wish you never met me." Hunter replied, grinning wickedly. Before Shane could react, a lightning shot through the air, splitting a tree in half. The tree was about to fall on Shane but he quickly ducked out of the way, standing back up to face a laughing Hunter.

" Are you nuts?" Shane yelled.

" Hell yeah." Hunter charged forward and punched Shane right in the face before kicking him in the stomach. Shane crashed in a nearby tree and stood up. Hunter spun kicked him in the face. Shane groaned as he wiped some blood away. Then he tackled Hunter and straddled him, trying to hold him down so he could reach the others. Before he could reach his morpher, Hunter painfully kicked him off. Hunter stood back up as he watched Shane squirm in pain.

" Get up." Hunter snarled. Shane sat on one knee, clutching his side and looking at Hunter.

" What the hell are you doing?" He demanded. He studied Hunter. Something had changed but what? Had he turned evil again? Possible but then they would've known or at least noticed something. He didn't get much time to think about that since Hunter attacked again. Hunter kicked. Shane barely avoided.

" I'm gonna destroy you once and for all." Hunter replied to his earlier question.

" Can't we talk about this?" Shane asked, backing away from Hunter. He got his answer when Hunter kicked.

" Guess not." Shane muttered as he blocked as best he could. He managed to kick Hunter a couple of times but he couldn't do much against Hunter's rage. Hunter kicked him three times. Two landed in his stomach and one in his face. Shane fell to the ground and lost consciousness. Hunter smiled satisfied.

" Guys, came back to Ninja Ops. Shane got beaten up." Hunter said coldly in his morpher. Hunter grabbed Shane and took him back to Ninja Ops. It would be to suspicious if Shane all of a sudden vanished since he was the last who saw him. That would mean they would suspect something. He entered Ninja Ops.

" What happened?" Dustin asked. Hunter laid Shane down on the couch.

" We went to the beach to train. Some guys decided to use Shane as a punching bag. Two of them held me so I couldn't help Shane. I tried to distract them by making it thunder but they didn't get scared. Eventually they ran off and took Shane back here as fast as I could." Hunter lied easily. The others seemed to believe him. It did sound believable. Cam took care of Shane's wounds.

" He's unconscious and in a coma but not a deep one." Cam reported. Hunter nearly smiled. Good. He couldn't afford that Shane would wake up soon because then they would know.

" God, I wish I could've done something." Hunter said, sinking down in a chair.

" Be glad you didn't get hurt ,too." Blake comforted him.

Hunter smiled. Phase 1 completed. One down, four to go…
