Chapter 3 sorry it took so long.
DO NOT OWN
Dawn didn't like this Terra Mole.
"He's ANNOYTHING ME!" She screeched when he appeared out of the ground in front of her and sent her flying back to crash to the ground.
But thanking almighty god Dustin got him down by playing Whack-A-Mole.
Honestly that was the weirdest form of martial art she had ever seen.
But of course, Mole had to go through puberty and grow, meaning Dawn got to play with Dragon Zord again and go into Lightning mode.
But it wasn't enough, but plus side Dawn didn't faint this time!
Yay!
"Okay, now he's REALLY annoying me!" Dawn screeched again.
"Guys hold on, I'm spending you a little power boost."
Power Sphere soon appeared in front of Shane and they defeated Terra Mole with the Ram hammer.
-LATER-
"Come on Dawn!" Dustin groaned.
She shook her head. "Dustin come here."
He did and she whispered into his ear.
"I ride horses, I'm terrified of going on…one of them things, Cam doesn't have a bike for me, I'm supposed to ride with you."
He frowned. "But earlier…."
"I lied, putting up a front. I love horses always have but I really can't handle one of these things…"
He nodded. "That's cool; you can ride with me anytime Sparky!"
She smiled and hugged him. "Some day I'll get you up on a horse!"
"Uh…no."
They laughed.
-NEXT MORNING-
"Dustin where's the CD with the Tsunami Specs?" Cam asked.
"Oh it's…where's my backpack?"
"You have got to be kidding me." Dawn groaned.
"Shut up!" He told her playfully.
"Dude, Cam's the grumpiest person I know and I live with him. Don't make this any harder for me!" She groaned.
He laughed and nodded.
"So will you help me find my backpack?"
"Sure."
But unfortunately they couldn't find the backpack or the CD.
"How are we going to find it….I mean if Cam…"
"If Cam what?"
"Nothing!" They yelped.
He narrowed his eyes at them then sighed.
"Whatever. I need you to head to the quarry. There's some strange activity."
They nodded and headed there but found nothing the suddenly boom.
An explosion that left him on the floor.
"Okay. That wasn't nice." Dawn stated.
Through the dust and the smoke they saw them.
"Who are you?"
"What's with the attitude?"
"Hello anybody home?"
"Shane." Dawn whispered. "I wouldn't patronise them."
"You should listen to the short one." The crimson ranger said turning slowly. "Obviously you didn't get the memo."
"Old rangers out. New rangers in."
"What you expect us to fight you?" Dustin frowned.
"Well….if you want a fight. I'm down." Dawn stated slowly.
Thunder students had always irked her which was way the Lighting academy was all the way on the otherside of the country.
In Louisiana just outside New Orleans.
How she wished she was back in New Orleans right now. Surrounded by food, art, music and culture.
Speaking French with the old lady that owned that run down vintage clothes store she adored or Spanish with her friends in one of the cafes.
Hell she even missed that annoying Italian woman who was always in that bakery called 'Doni's' that had the best cream slices in New Orleans and spoke to loudly on her phone.
She missed it all…..she didn't want to be a ranger. She didn't want to be in Bay Harbour.
She wanted to be at home.
They ran straight at them at a serious speed that caught them off guard.
"Fuck you anyway." Dawn snarled.
"Doesn't seem like they want to talk."
"I vote for kicking their wanabee butts." Tori stated.
"Absolutely." Dawn agreed.
"Didn't anyone ever tell you that imitation is the cheapest form of flattery?"
"Thunder staff! Mega power!"
Dawn raised her eye brows. "What damage can they do with sticks?" Tori asked.
Hunter narrowed his eyes as he attacked the white lighting ranger. The energy that was running through his staff wasn't affecting her.
Damn that stupid lightning touch.
Blake's hit had them on the ground again. "Really big sticks." Tori muttered.
"Trust us. It'll be much less painful that way."
Dawn stood up and watched them go. "I always knew there was a reason I hated the Thunder students. And not just because they basically kicked me out of the academy because I was Lightning." She told the others when they walked inside the Ninja Ops.
Sensei tried to calm her down but she wouldn't have it. "No!" She shouted. "I hate them alright! I hate the thunders." She collapsed onto the bench and rubbed her temples. "But honestly I thought they had a bit more honour then siding with Lothor."
Sensei sighed and then the system beeped.
Zurgane wanted a fight.
Dawn was more then happy to give it too him and the rangers headed to meet the alien.
But of course….
The thunder rangers. On tsunami cycles.
"Okay. These guys are douche-bags." She decided growling slightly.
"Smell something burning?" One asked the other before they called their Zords.
Insectizord and Beetlezord.
Cam working fast quickly sent their Zords as well.
She's never been so happy to sit inside that dragon in all her life them she did now.
A slightly evil smirk landed on her face when she landed a hit on the crimson ranger's Zord.
"Up yours you wanabee ranger." She told him.
The Wind rangers and Dawn joined to make the Storm Megazord but of course…
They could too.
Cam sent the Power Sphere but it got intercepted and used by the Thunder rangers.
Their soft hit Dawn first and whack.
She screamed clutching her shoulder and cried out in pain.
The Thunder rangers saw this one their screen thing and something pulled at their hearts for the slightest second.
They recognised this cry….from somewhere…
She was….just a kid.
"Cam beam her back to Ninja Ops." Shane ordered and Cam did as told beaming an injured Dawn back to Ninja Ops.
When they arrived back their mouths opened in shock.
The girl that was clutching her arm in agony not 30 minutes ago was going A HANDSTAND!
"Yo." She stated returning to natural position.
"You okay now Dawn?" Sensei asked.
"Of course. Lightning blood. Lightning healing. Just one of the perks." She stated.
They handed their morphers to Cam to fix and spoke more about the Thunder Rangers.
"I could give two craps about them. Or the Thunder Academy at all."
"Why?" Dustin frowned. "What's your problem with them?"
"The Lightning and Thunder academies have never gotten on. We were at war until around twenty years ago when a marriage between the son of the sensei of Thunder and the daughter of the sensei in Lightning got married. Even then there's still bad blood. We have our academies on completely different sides of the country and we try to best each other at everything. When I arrived at Lightning people didn't want to talk to me because I spent some time at Thunder until I proved by revealing my gift I am a Lightning Blood. We can not get on and we never will. It's my blood to hate them."
"Even your brothers…"
"I love them because they were my brothers. But I hate the fact they've never tried to contact me because I know in my heart they hate I'm Lightning." She told them sighing.
"So where are you from/ if your on two separate sides of the country?" Dustin frowned.
"New Orleans baby." She told them. "Where the music is always playing and the party never stops!" She smiled.
They grinned before going their separate ways.
"You miss it don't you?" Cam stated.
"New Orleans? Damn straight I miss it. Its home you know…" She stated before getting up and going outside picking up her bow on the way out.
She shot for hours before her Morpher beeped.
But for once she didn't answer. Not today. Today she needed to get some anger out and miss home.
She was still a kid. She deserved to get homesick every once in a while.
She returned and heard a voice ask…a very familiar voice…
The voice of Hunter her big brother ask. "Where's your little friend."
Suddenly Blake ducked.
An amazingly thrown arrow head had embedded itself in the wall behind them.
"Hello Blake. Hello Hunter." She stated moving in front of the Wind Rangers.
"Dawn…" Hunter whispered slowly and stared down at their youngest sister.
The White Lightning Ranger.
"Hello brothers. Been quite some time…."
"Sparky you know Hunter and Blake?" Dustin asked.
"Uh huh. Everybody meet the brothers I was talking about."
"Leave Cam alone or I swear to god…."
"What happened to you….what happened to your arms…?" Hunter asked in almost a daze.
""Lothor happened. But that's not important. Leave Cam alone." She warned them.
They stared at their sister almost pained before pushing Cam forward into Shane.
"Come with us." Blake said.
"Go to hell." She replied.
They sighed. "Let's go we've got what we want. Goodbye rangers and good luck with your future battles." In a flash of smoke they were gone.
"Are you okay? Did they hurt you?" Dawn asked Cam.
He shook his head but revealed that they'd taken his father.
The rangers were now on a rescue mission to the Mountain of Lost Ninjas.
They found the Thunder Rangers battling some Lost Ninjas and they zoomed in on their Tsunami Cycles Dawn jumping off the back of Dustin's placing a hand calming on the first Lost Ninja who ran at her and sparked them to their knees and into just.
"Who do we fight?" Shane asked nd Dawn ducked going into a crab before kicking up and knocking it in the jaw.
"Anything not wearing a primary colour?"
"Good plan." Dustin announced and jumped off to help Dawn.
Dawn for the barest of moments saw Shane and Hunter struggling so she ran.
Three Lost Souls came running at her and she jumped over them.
Her body sliding gracefully over the (I kind stole this from when Alice Cullen jumped over that new born in Eclipse it was just an awesome move lol) Lost Ninja and landing just behind Shane and Hunter holding one shoulder each and jumping over them to land in front of the Lost Ninja and hold his face in her hand shocking him to dust.
"That's my girl." Shane commented and she grinned.
When the fight was over the truce was done and the argument started.
"Why would you take sensei?" Shane frowned.
"Because your sensei murdered our parents!"
The shock of the statement made Dawn drop to one knee. The intensity of it… the fact that they completely believed it…
"Dawn!" Dustin yelped and kneeled beside her but not before glaring for a few moments at Hunter and Blake. "You okay?"
She took two breaths and nodded before standing up and shakily asked. "W-What?"
"That's right Dawn. The Sensei of the Wind Academy killed our parents."
She shook her head. "No! No! Someone who killed my parents could not have done what he did for me! No man could hug a child as she cried over the loss of her academy if they killed her parents…." She ran a hand through her hair and shook her head. "No. Its lies….YOU'RE LYING!" She shouted tears welling up in her eyes and spilling over.
Dustin hugged her for a few moments.
To be honest it made Hunter and Blake sort of…jealous….the fact that Dustin; the goof Dustin could hold her when she cried and they…they couldn't.
The fact that they had even made her cry.
It hurt.
Before Zurgane appeared with his own Zord.
"What the…."
"You guys go after them." Tori said. "I'll keep Zurgane busy. You okay to fight Dawn?"
Her hands sparked for a few moments and the girl nodded. "More then ready."
So they did three on two. Wind and Lightning vs. Thunder.
One shot of the Thunder blaster left the three rangers down and Hunter and Blake left with Sensei.
So it was a race. A race to the Mountain and the Cavern of Spirits.
The arrived just in time. "NO!" Dawn shouted as they were about to open the ball Sensei had concealed himself in.
"You're sensei destroyed our parents!" Blake said.
"This is why he must die."
"Where did you hear that?" Dawn said.
"Lothor told us."
"And you believed him?" Tori asked.
"Why shouldn't we?" Hunter asked.
"Well dude he's not exactly known for being one of the good guys." Dustin stated.
"He burnt I was in down and left me with server burns. I'm pretty sure he's able to lie." Dawn stated.
"We're done talking." Hunter lifted the gem.
"NO!"
"Stop." They turned at the voice.
"Mom. Dad…."
"Blake. Hunter. Listen to your sister and your friends. We were killed…"
"Because of him right." Blake growled.
"No Blake. He's not responsible for what happened to us."
"Then who is?" Hunter demanded.
"The one they call Lothor."
"Now there's a shock." Tori muttered.
"Dawn." Her mother spoke softly.
"Mom…" The girl whispered.
"You have a new family now. In New Orleans. With the Lightning Academy. We worried that they're training would be too much but you've made us so proud. You're sensei is so proud of you…."
"….Your passion for your family and your friends safety is a gift….we love you Dawn. No matter what remember that."
She nodded.
"Thank you." Their mother said to Sensei in his ball thing. "For looking after her. And thank you rangers…and you two." She looked at Hunter and Blake.
"Don't Thunder Staff your sister!"
Dawn grinned at her mother but Lothor soon ruined the family reunion entering the cavern and shooting a beam of light at the ball that held sensei.
But Hunter springing to action deflected the hit and it shoot back at Lothor.
For now they were safe.
-STORM CAHRGERS TWO DAYS LATER-
Tori walked in to see Dawn sitting on the counter with Shane and Dustin just as Kelly stormed away.
"What's up with her?" She asked.
"Uh…Hunter and Blake blew the race off." Shane told her.
"Oh yeah…I know."
"You know? What happened?" Dustin asked.
"Are they coming back?"
"They're gone."
"Gone?" Dawn repeated. "Without as much as a goodbye." Her shoulder slumped.
"Where?" Shane asked.
"Not sure but they did say to say goodbye Dawn."
She nodded.
-ELSEWHERE-
The two brothers walked along the beach. "So how long do you think we'll be gone?" Blake asked.
"Why? Do you have a reason to come back?"
"Have you forgotten our sister…?"
"No! Fine I get your point….you really just want to see Tori again."
"Hey!"
That took a long time didn't it? But I gave you a longer chapter! ;) I think lol review!
