Chapter 9

Note: So up until now we saw how close Ryan and Blair are, but in this chapter it will be put to the test once she finds out he confronted Hunter.

Its been a couple of days since everything calmed down after the destruction of Diabolico and everyone was doing as best as they could. The four teens plus Tommy just finished the school day and were currently relaxing in the dino lab well Blair was pacing back at forth. She has been trying to get in cintact with Hunter the whole morning and afternoon and he wasn't answering her calls.

"Blair if you don't stop your going to wear or should i say burn a hole in the floor". Tommy pointed out noticing smoke from her feet.

"Oh, sorry". Blair apologized. "Its just he has never ghosted me like this". Tommy stopped her pacing and made her sit in the chair. "Did something happen when i was, uh, dead?".

Everyone shook their heads but she caught the look on Ethan's face. "You know something , Ethan spill". Blair walked over to him. "Ethan please i promise i won't be mad"

"Blair". She turned to Conner. "Ryan and Hunter got into a fight, Ryan blamed Hunter for what happened to you, he told him to stay away from you".

"He said what was happening to you wasn't normal". Blair looked at Kira as she spoke those words. "I'm sorry Blair it could be why Hunter is ignoring you". Blair couldn't believe what her friends were telling her, she wasn't mad at them but she was furious at her older brother.

"Blair we're sorry we should have told you".Tommy spoke to her quietly.

"Its okay i'm not mad at you guys but i am mad at Ryan". She waved and ninja streaked to Mariner Bay.

"Should we be worried?". Ethan asked the group.

"Oh yeah". Was all Tommy said.

Mariner Bay..

Blair got to the soccer field where she knew Ryan would be finishing up teaching his students. She walked up to him as he packed his gear into his truck. He turned as she got up next to him.

"Hey sis, what's up?". He asked her.

"Oh i just had an interesting talk with my friends they told me something interesting, but first Hunter seems to be avoiding me you wouldn't know why that could be do you?". She asked casually. "Oh and before i forget i believe this isn't normal to you either". She let a small fireball appear in her hand causing him to jump back.

"Blair, I". Blair stared him down almost daring him to speak. "I told Hunter to stay away from you, Blair if you hadn't been there and f he hadn't of brought you through Blue Bay this wouldn't be happening to you, you wouldn't have..died". He choked out.

"Ryan i was there for a game i had no choice to be there, plus you can't blame him for this I was the one who wanted to help the Fire Academy." Blair's anger was rising up. "For you to say its not normal, you make it seem like i'm not normal anymore.". Tears rimmed her eyes. "How dare you blame someone that i know would never hurt me, Hunter knew how strong i was, how much the training has taught me, you and Dana were the two people i wanted to share it with. I hid it because of this reason, you guys are afraid of me" She stepped back from him.

"Blair its not true". She cut him off. Ryan rubbed his hands over his face.

"I stood by you when you came back, i stood by you when you dealt with your cobra curse, i never once blamed you for diabolico destroying my morpher. You know whats not normal Ryan believing a Demon over your family for knowing who you really were back then over your own family, over me who fought with everything i had to get you back. I just wanted you to stand by me trhough this but i guess its to much to ask". Blair spat at her big brother. She never thought he would hurt her like this.

She turned to walk away but not before sending a fireball to his front tire, deflating it. Ryan watched his sister walk away. He banged the hood of his truck in frustration.

Blair walked until she came to her favorite spot. A rock formation that overlooked where the Aquabase used to be under the water.

"Hey Blair you okay?". Blair smiled as Kira's voice came through her morpher.

"I don't know". Blair managed.

"Are you coming back tonight?". Kira asked.

"If Chad doesn't need me at work tonight i will". Blair answered. She winced when she heard a crash and Conner grumbling. Blair got off the rocks and headed to the aquarium. She noticed Chad inside.

"Hey Blair" He greeted her. She waved.

"Hey do you need me for anything since i'm here?". She asked petting Titan on the head.

"No everything is good here, are you alright?". He asked taking in her appearence. Her red eyes giving it away.

"Oh its nothing i'm fine". She told him. Her morpher beeped. "Sorry Chad duty calls, hey Blair here?"

"Can you come help, Mesogog is being a major pain". Ethan told her.

Blair waved to Chad and ninja streaked to where her friends were.

In Reefside.

Ethan and Kira grunted as the newest montser who was a huge looking fish sent them to the ground. Conner was flung up into a tree.

"Okay this is why i have always hated fish". Kira grumbled getting to her feet.

"Don't let Titan hear you say that". Blair said with a giggle as she appeared. She tried to put the fight she had with Ryan to the back to her brain for now. "Dino Thunder! Power Up HA!".

"So how about we send this fish back to the sea?". Her three friends nodded. The four of them did a backflip against the monter's lasers. They got knocked down as he sent fish out as flying projectiles.

Kira and Blair ran up the side of a wall jumping firing from their blasters. Ethan and Conner jumped up in the air landing srtikes with their sabres as they landed.

"Ow Ow Ow!". The monster cried. "Lets see how you pesky rangers feel when your reeled in.". He flung his hook out making the line wrap around Ethan and Blair.

"Guys!" Conner yelled. Conner put his arms out. Kira jumped off them, she flipped in the air firing her blaster as the monsters head. The line released setting Blair and Ethan free.

"You know how i like my fish? Fried!" Blair grabbed the line from the ground. She threw one end to Ethan, She turned the line into fire and her and Ethan wrapped it around the monster.

"That burns!"He writhed.

Conner and Kira jumped up kicked the monster back into the wall.

"Z-rex blaster!". They yelled combining their weapons. "Fire!". The blast hit the monster causing him to explode. The teens cheered. The teens demorphed.

"Thank God i don't smell like fish". Kira said relieved. "Hey want to go to Hayley's?".

"Sure". They all agreed. Once they got their they all went to the couches all except Ethan who went straight to the computers.

"Man i don't understand how he can spend that much time staring at a computer screen?". Blair told her friends.

"Kind of like you, how you can spend hours just floating in a pool with three, huge animals". Blair threw a pillow at Conner as he spoke.

"Actually Conner growing up i used to swim laps around it, it was kind of refreshing after every game i played". Blair filled Conner in. "I still do sometimes actually Titan used to swim underneath me."

"So are you and Ryan okay?". Kira asked her friend.

"No, he admitted what he did and said to Hunter". Blair told her sadly. Hayley came over and gave them their orders.

"Blair Carter is working in Reefside tonight and is about to get off so he is on his way here". Hayley told her. Blair nodded.

"I'm sure Ryan meant well though?. Conner tried.

"What he did is inexcusable, Hunter didn't deserve it, I didn't deserve it after all we have been through it don't justify his actions". Blair answered her friend wringing the pillow in her hands.

"Hey Kira want to sing tomorrow night?" Hayley asked trying to change the subject. Kira nodded accepting the offer. "Blair you should join her." Kira turned her eyes to her friend. Blair covered her face witha pillow.

"You sing?". Kira whacked her arm. "You didn't tell me" Kira slapped it again.

"Ow!". Blair squealed. "Hayley who told you that?"

"Dana". Blair nodded. "And no i will do no such thing". The door opened causing the bells to ding together. In walked Tommy and Carter.

"Hey guys" Carter greeted everyone. Ethan just waved still neck deep in the game he was playing. Hayley locked the door as the rest of the patrons left. "So i heard you buried another monster today.".

"Yeah more like roasted him". Blair spoke giving a fist bump to Conner. They all stayed there for a little while before they all decided to head home.

"Hey Blair got a second?". Carter called out.

"If your going to say what i think your going to say then i don't want to hear it". She said with frustration in her voice. Carter leaned against the hummer. Blair climbed up on the hood.

"You know i remember the last time you were like this, the time you never spoke to Dana for a week. Remember when you had the chance to perform with Titan and you felt Dana didn't believe you could do it because you were to young". Blair nodded remembering it all too well. In order to get them talking Carter and Kelsey locked them in a room for hours.

"Carter what do you want from me?". She asked looking him in the eyes.

"I want you to see his side of it, Blair that day when we lost you i have never seen such a haunted look on his face in the years i've known him.". Carter started.

"Carter it still doesn't give him the right to order people to stay away from me,everytime i use my powers i see the look in his eyes a look that tells me he is afraid of me". Blair managed to choke out.

"BJ listen to me, Ryan or any of us we are not scared of you. Me along with Dana and your Dad couldn't be more proud of you. Ryan is not afraid of you, he's afraid that with all this power you have, joining a team of rangers that your not going to need him anymore". Carter went to stand in front of her. "Your growing up on him".

Blair didn't know what to say. She had never thought of it that way but she never gave her brother the chance to tell her either. Her eyes went to where Tommy and Kira were standing. Conner was laughing with them since Tommy was giving him a ride home.

"But why take it out on Hunter?". Carter smirked at her question.

"I think its because he has a feeling Hunter likes you and he can't imagine you dating". Blair now understood. Blair let out a small sigh.

"I said alot of horrible things to him, do you think he will forgive me?". Carter put an arm around her.

"He will trust me". Carter gave her a hug then pushed her off the hood. "Now get home or whatever you teenagers do these days". Blair stuck her tongue out on him. Carter honked the horn and drove back to Mariner Bay.

Blair smiled slightly as she walked over to her friends. "Hey you".Conner greeted.

"Hey". Blair told him.

"Everything okay?". Blair nodded at Tommy.

"Hey i am going to head back to Mariner Bay for the night i have a big brother to apologize to, i will be back tomorrow". Blair told them. Conner and Kira nodded.

In Mariner Bay..

Blair got back to Mariner Bay. She went by the fire station where her Dad told her that Ryan was at the beach. Blair walked to the beach to see him juggling a soccer ball. He kicked it to hard and it flew over. Blair did a flip over the picnic table and a caught it.

"I guess you want to burn that to do you?" Blair stepped back at his tone.

"I came to apologize". Blair hesitated to say. "If you don't want to hear what i have to say then i won't stay.". She kicked the back hard to him.

"Fine, go, you made it clear earlier that you don't need me". Ryan hissed. "You have your friends now".

Blair was about to speak when Zeltrax and a bunch of drones appeared surrounding them.

Note: So i had planned on them making up by the end of the chapter but i got something else in mind.
