Episode 226: Power Rangers Ninja Storm: Samurai's Journey: Part I
At Ninja Ops, the Rangers are standing around Sensei and a board.
"No way" said Hunter "there's no way he does it"
"I don't know" said Dustin "he is strong for a little guy"
"Quiet" said Shane "a little respect for the master"
"Watch closely Rangers" said Sensei and he jumps a thick block and splits in two
"You were saying" said Tori
"I stand corrected" said Hunter "but how?"
"The Power comes not from the body, but from faith in God" said Tori
"Correct Tori" said Sensei
"All right" send Hunter "I'm up"
"Are you sure you want to go there bro?" Blake asked
"Look" said Hunter "I have faith in Christ too" and Shane puts down a new block. Hunter karate chops it, but only hurts his hand, the block is fine
"Rodent 1" said Shane "Thunder Ranger zip"
"Think you can do it?" Hunter asked and one by one the other Rangers try and fail.
On Lothor's ship, Marah and Kapri are arguing over who's eviler
"Girls, girls" said Lothor "don't fight. You're both evil. I myself has been scared of you"
"Really?" Marah asked "you think we're evil?"
"And beautiful" said Lothor "and intelligent. Have I told you two how much I love having you here?"
"He really likes us" said Marah and they hear a laugh and turn around to see another Lothor.
"That was rich" said the second Lothor "I haven't laughed that hard in years" the first Lothor turns into a monster
"Meet Madtropolis" said Zurgane "he has the power to make it appear that he is another being"
"Just a little thing I do" said Madtropolis "it kills at barbecues"
"A neat party trick Zurgane" said Lothor "but it doesn't exactly scream world domination does it?"
"Wait" said Zurgane "there's more" and Madtropolis pulls out a bomb.
"I can use this to cut off the Rangers' link to the Morphing Grid" said Madtropolis
"Now we are getting somewhere" said Lothor
Back at Ninja Ops, Sensei reminds the Rangers that while they have come a long way in their Ninja training as well as the faith in God, that they still have much to learn. Cam the chops the block in two.
"What?" Shane asked
"What?" Cam asked
"All right" said Shane "how did you do that? You used a laser beam right?"
"It's got to be a trick" said Hunter
"You still don't get it do you?" Cam asked
"Get what?" Shane asked
"Just because someone isn't a Ranger" said Cam "it doesn't make them completely useless. I need some air" and he storms out and Tori follows.
"Are you okay?" Tori asked
"Yes" said Cam "just tired of the lack of respect"
"Cam" said Tori "everything we're able to do is because of what you're able to do"
"It's not enough" said Cam "I want to be part of it"
"You want to be a Ranger" said Tori "why don't you talk to Sensei?"
"I have" said Cam "he's forbidden me"
"Forbidden you, why?" Tori asked
"My mom was a Ranger" said Cam "she was a Pink Ranger, and she died in battle recently. She knew about the Wind Power Discs and she dying wish was that I not become a Ninja Ranger"
An explosion occurs and Marah, Kapri, Madtropolis, and Kelzacks appear.
"We hate to break up the moment" said Kapri
"But were here to destroy you" said Marah "Evil enough for you?"
"Whatever" said Kapri "Attack" and Cam takes a fighting stance "back off geek" and then the other Rangers appear.
"I've heard of cities coming alive" said Dustin "but this is ridiculous"
"Everyone's a comedian" said Madtropolis "are you going to morph, or do I have to beg" Cam began shaking his head, warning them not to.
"You got it" said Shane "Ready?"
"Ready!" said the other Rangers.
"NINJA STORM!" said Shane
"THUNDERSTORM" said Hunter
"RANGER FORM!" said Shane and Hunter in unison
"POWER OF AIR!" said Shane
"EARTH!" said Dustin
"WATER!" said Tori
"POWER OF THUNDER!" said Hunter and Blake in unison
"Cam" said Hunter "run"
"No way" said Cam "I can help" and the battle begins. The Rangers lose badly
"Now for the drain event" said Madtropolis and he opened his bomb and the colors drained from the Rangers.
"What's he doing to us?" Blake asked
"Try to resist" said Shane
"I can't" said Hunter and they collapsed and demorphed and the villains vanished
"Are you guys okay?" Cam asked and they go back to Ninja Ops
"What did that guy do to us?" Shane asked
"He cut off the connection between the Power Discs and the Morphing Grid" said Cam "if you go out and fight again, there's a pretty good chance you won't come back"
"Dude" said Dustin "that's harsh"
"This is grave news" said Sensei "we must find a way to retrieve your Powers"
"Look" said Tori, pointing to the computer "there he is"
"All right" said Shane "it's go time"
"You can barely stand Shane" said Cam
"I'm not going to sit here while that freak is loose" said Shane as he tries to stand
"Me neither" said Tori and the rest of the Rangers try to stand
"At least let me give you an alternate Power source" said Cam and he used his computer to change the Rangers Power source from the Power Discs to Ninja Ops "this is like a battery. You'll be able to fight at full strength for a little while, but it won't last"
At a lab, Madtropolis is about to blow up his bomb, and with it, the Rangers connection to the Morphing Grid. Shane Ninja Streaks in, grabs the bomb, and pulls out the fuse. Madtropolis tries to get him, but Shane shoots him with his Hawk Blaster, but he vanishes and reappears behind Shane, and hits him in the back and the other Rangers appear.
"Shane" said Cam "you need to conserve energy"
"Easier said than done" said Shane
"Give that back" said Madtropolis
"Now let me get this straight" said Shane "we're just suppose to hand this over, with all our Powers in it. That's never going to happen. C'mon guys! THUNDERSTORM CANNON!"
"But which one of me is real?" Madtropolis asked as he copies himself many times
"Only one way to find out" said Shane "FIRE!" and Madtropolis was destroyed
"Scroll of Empowerment Descend!" said Lothor and the monster grew.
"You ready Shane?" Dustin asked and Shane used his Ninja Sword to try to open the bomb, but failed
"I can't open it" said Shane
"We don't have time to figure it out" said Hunter
"Cam" said Shane "we need the Megazords"
"You'll never last through a Megazord fight" said Cam
"Look" said Shane "we don't have a choice"
"Do what you have to" said Cam "but we've got to get that sphere back to Ninja Ops. I've been working on a new teleportation system, based on the one used by the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. The plans were given to me by Ninjor, I hope it works" and he hits a button and the sphere vanishes from Dustin's hands "There it goes" and hits another button.
In a subterranean hangar the Hawkzord teleports away, followed by the Dolphinzord, and the Lionzord. The Hawkzord appears from an airplane, the Dolphinzord appears from a cruise ship, and the Lionzord appears from an amusement park. The Thunderzords appear from behind dirt hills
"HAWKZORD!" said Shane
"LIONZORD!" said Dustin
"DOLPHINZORD!" said Tori
"CRIMSON INSECTIZORD!" said Hunter
"NAVY BEETLEZORD!" said Blake
"STORM POWER MEGAZORD!" said Shane
"THUNDER POWER MEGAZORD!" said Hunter "THUNDER POWER MEGAZORD: POWERED UP!"
"Hey" said Madtropolis "two Megazords to make my day" and he blasts them.
At Ninja Ops, the sphere appears.
"Yes" said Cam "it worked. Rangers, I've got the sphere. Now I'm sending you some protection, it's all you can handle right now"
"We'll take any help that we can get" said Shane and a Power Disc appeared on his console "POWER DISC: LOCKED AND DROPPED!" and he inserts the Power Disc into the console and the Megazord's chest opens and reveals Power Sphere 9, which reveals the Ninja Scarf "A scarf, you sent us a scarf?"
"Just go with it" said Cam
"If you say so" said Shane. The Storm Power Megazord used the scarf as a shield and then threw it, damaging Madtropolis, then it used it to make both Megazords disappear.
"It's going to take more than a giant hanky to fool me" said Madtropolis and blasted the Megazords and the Rangers were forced to eject and demorph.
"Say goodbye Rangers" said Madtropolis
At Ninja Ops, Cam can't find anymore Power.
"You know something" said Cam "what is it?"
"There is an old artifact" said Sensei "it will give whoever can pass its tests will be given Great Power"
"The Matthew Scroll" said Cam as raced to grab, but Sensei flipped through the air and stopped him.
"No" said Sensei
"Dad" said Cam "it's the only way"
"Cameron" said Sensei "as you well know, the Matthew Scroll is an excerpt from the original Scroll of the Gospel of Matthew, penned by the Apostle Matthew himself, it only contains Matthew 4, although I am most grateful that Mr. Hartford gave us the scroll after he found it. Don't you remember what happened in Matthew 4?"
"The Temptations of Jesus" said Cam "so?"
"So" said Sensei "you will be given your own set of temptations. Are you willing to face them?"
"Yes" said Cam
"Then go" said Sensei as he stopped out the way. Cam began to open the scroll, but then it opened itself and created a portal.
"You have your mother's courageous heart" said Sensei "and your father's stubborn head. Be careful my son"
"I'll be back dad" said Cam "I promise" and he enters the portal. He lands right outside the waterfall "did it work, nothing's changed" and then a Air Wind Ninja appeared on a horse.
