Another Battlizer Part 1

The team is sitting around the table in Ninja Ops. Sophia set her head on Hunter's shoulder. Hunter looks down at her to see her starting to nod off. He nudges her gently. Sophia quickly lifts her head off his shoulder. Sasha watches her sister wipe the sleep from her eyes.

"Hey, sis, why are you so tired?" Sasha asks.

"I've been practicing nonstop to make sure that I'm ready for my first practice for my first practice for El Diablo riding," Sophia answers honestly.

"Soph, I understand that you want to make a good impression. There is such a thing as practicing too much. You could get hurt if you go to the track to practice today. I think that you should take a break." Sasha says.

"If it will make you happy, sis, I'll take the day off tomorrow," Sophia says.

Sophia looks over at Shane. She watches him wiping the sleep from his eyes too. "Shane, what's your excuse for looking really tired?"

"I've been having the same super strange dream for the past few nights," Shane says.

"I think you should try to pay attention to it," Tori says.

"Yes, sensei always told me that your dreams can tell you a lot about yourself," Sasha adds.

Cam looks around the room. He gets worried when he didn't see his father in his habitat. Sophia walks over to it. She takes a note that was attached to the support beam closest to her.

"Hey, guys, you need to hear this," Sophia exclaims.

"What's up Soph," Blake says.

"Rangers, I have gone on a retreat to recharge my inner ninja. While I'm gone you will have tomorrow off." Sophia says.

"Awesome," Blake says.

"A day off sounds great to me too, but I was hoping that sensei would be around to celebrate…" Tori says.

"What are we supposed to be celebrating tomorrow?" Sasha asks.

"Tori's birthday," Sophia sings.

The group hears Sophia's voice crack as she sings. Sasha knew that something is wrong since she knew that her sister never had any problem hitting those notes before. Sophia sees her friends' faces she didn't like how they looked at all. They were wide-eyed and their mouths were open so wide that you could fit a big fish hook in them.

"What's wrong guy?" Sophia asks hoarsely.

"Soph, didn't you hear your voice cracking while you were singing?" Shane asks.

"Yeah, has it ever done that before?" Hunter adds.

"No, it hasn't. I think that is happening because I'm tired, that's all." Sophia says in the same tone as before.

"I think you should go to the doctor to be on the safe side sis," Sasha suggests.

"Sasha, you know how I feel about going to the doctor. Anyway, I'm sure that I'll be fine after I get a good night's sleep. Besides, we should be focusing on Tori. How about we head to the water park? I read that they're opening their remodeled surfing simulator." Sophia says.

"That sounds really cool, what about you Tor?" Blake asks.

"I'm game," Tori says.

"Good, we'll meet up at storm chargers seven am sharp," Sophia says.

"Shane, do me a favor and get enough sleep tonight," Tori orders.

"Yeah, falling asleep on the water slide is really dangerous," Sophia adds.

The next morning in front of storm charges the group is waiting for Shane to show up. The girls are wearing a cute shirt and a pair of matching shorts and flip flop over their suits. The boys are wearing a light colored T-shirt that matches their swim trunks. Sophia takes off her sunglasses and looks down at her watch, it reads 7:15.

"Guys, I really hope Shane didn't oversleep. He is fifteen minutes late," Sophia says.

"Relax, little sis, he'll be here," Sasha says.

A few seconds later, Shane runs up to the group. Sophia notices his outfit. He is wearing something that you would wear to go for a hike not a trip to the water park.

"Shane, it looks like you've decided not to join us," Sophia says disapprovingly.

"Yeah, why are you bailing on the trip?" Tori adds.

"I had the dream again, and you guys said it might be trying to tell me something," Shane says.

"It was telling you how to ruin my birthday." Tori snaps.

"I'm sorry Tor, but my senses are telling me that I need to go check the woods," Shane says.

"Shane, I applauded what you're doing," Sasha says.

"I am too, but Cyber Cam is online at Ninja Ops," Cam adds.

"Yeah, he'll let us know if something does go wrong," Tori whines.

"I'll meet up with guys after you get back, okay?" Shane says.

Shane turns around and runs off towards the woods. The group piles into Tori's van. Sasha drives to the water park. Meanwhile, in the woods, Shane looks around frantically trying to find the right path to lead to the same place he kept seeing in his dream. A few seconds later, a huge bright ball of energy floats over to him. It circles around him three times before disappearing into the tree next to him.

Okay, that was a little weird. It looked like the ball of light from my dream. Maybe it's trying to lead me to where I'm supposed to go. Shane thinks.

The red ranger's thoughts are interrupted when a huge black orb zooms in towards him. He did a quick back flip and kicks it away. The orb flies down the path. A shark looking alien appears a few feet away from him.

"Wow, I see that ugly runs in the family." Shane jokes.

"Whatever human, now step aside,"

"You don't scare me, whoever you are. Do you work for Lothor?" Shane says.

"My name is Vexacus. I don't work of Lothor. I have a job to do, so give me the Carmanian." Vexacus demands.

"I've never heard of whatever you are looking for," Shane says.

"I know that you're lying human," Vexacus says.

Vexacus pulls out his sword. They start to fight. It was a one-sided battle. Vexacus easily blocks all of Shane's attacks with his free hand. He counter attacks and punches Shane in his right shoulder. The red ranger is sent flying and runs along the path. He struggles to get to his feet. Once he does, he runs up to the alien. He pushes himself off of a tree to give his roundhouse kick more power. Vexacus ducks and kicks Shane in the chest. He rolls down the patch again. He decides to morph after he gets to his again. Even in his ranger form he was easily defeated by a laser blast from Vexacus. Shane groans as he hit the tree again. He demorphs when he hits the ground and holds his right arm in pain. He looks up and sees Vexacus walk up to him.

"I'll ask you one more time earthling. Where are you hiding the Carmanian?" Vexacus asks.

Shane slowly pushes himself up with his good arm. He faces the alien again. HE didn't say a word since he had no clue what Vexacus was talking about.

"Tell me what I need to know, right now." Vexacus demands.

A few seconds later there was a bright flash of white light and a bubble surrounds Shane. Vexacus is in shock when the light fades and sees Shane being teleported away.

The rangers are trying to have fun at Blue Bay Harbor Falls Water Park. They are standing in line for the surfing simulator. Tori is the next person in line to ride it.

"Guys, don't you think that one of us should have gone with him?" Sophia asks.

"Soph, you need to relax," Sasha says.

"Yeah, we're supposed to be celebrating my birthday." Tori adds.

"Who's the next person to brave the wave," The ride attendant says.

Tori happily walks up. The attendant hands her the board. Tori puts the board in the water. She gets on it after she gets her balance the attendant pushes her towards the middle of the wave. Everyone in the line starts to cheer loudly as Tori gets into her groove. She rides back over to the attendant after she carves in and out of the wave for the fifth time.

"Wow, are you a professional surfer?" The attendant asks.

"No, I just do it for fun." Tori answers.

Shane looks around really confused by what just happened. There was another quick flash of white light. He turns around to see a young girl walk up to him. She has long black, hazel eyes and fair skin.

"Hey," the girl says.

"Hey, but I thought I was the only one out here." Shane says.

"You thought wrong, and by the way you can call me Skyla." Skyla says sweetly.

Meanwhile, in another part of the forest, Zurgane and Choobo are trying to find the ship that Lothor wanted them to find.

"Can we stop for a minute?" Choobo whines.

"No," Zurgane snaps.

Choobo places his hand on Zurgane's shoulder. Zurgane pushes him away quickly. Choobo s stumbles but luckily for him, he didn't fall over. He sees a frog and chases after it. He bangs his head on something and bounces backward.

"Ouch, that hurt," Choobo whines.

Zurgane presses the button on the decloaker Lothor gave him. He waves it in the air revealing a strange looking ship.

"Wow, whose ship is this?" Choobo asks.

"It belongs to Vexacus; he is a ruthless bounty hunter." Zurgane answers, "Also, he is one of Lothor's sworn enemies. We need to report this to Lothor immediately."

"Okay," Choobo says.

Zurgane pulls him away from the ship. He activates the device again. The ship turns invisible again. Cyber Cam walks up and says, "Hey is there some piece of information you would like to share with the rest of the group?"

"You mean the enemy spaceship." Choobo replies.

"Shut up," Zurgane snaps, "Get out of the way ranger,"

Zurgane calls for some kelzacks. He orders for them to attack while they make their escape. He starts fighting them. The kelzacks overwhelm him, so he teleports back to ninja ops. Back at the water park, the rangers decided to take a break from the rides to get some lunch.

"Hey, water slide warriors, I think we might have a problem." Cyber Cam says.

The rangers gather around the green rangers so they could hear his cyber counterpart better. Cyber Cam continues, "We've got a new alien tourist in the forest. Here is the interesting thing – he isn't working for Lothor."

"Wow, and have you been able to locate Shane." Sophia says.

"Sorry, lighting girl, whatever is being used to hide the ship is interfering with his morpher."

"Okay, try again. I'll be there in a bit." Cam says.

"You got it bro," Cyber Cam says.

Cam let's go of the amulet. It gently falls back to its original spot before he gets up from the table.

"So, you're heading back home aren't you?" Sophia asks.

"Just until I figure out what's going on," Cam answers.

"Please stay," Tori begs.

"Tor, trust me, since his dad is gone. I have a feeling that Cam will feel better if he checks things out himself." Sasha says.

"How do you know that sis," Sophia asks.

"Just a hunch," Sasha says, as she tries not to blush.

"Whatever," Sophia scoffs.

"Should we come with you?" Hunter asks.

"No, we don't know what we are dealing with yet." Cam says.

"Okay," Tori says sadly.

"Why are we worrying so much, guys?" Sophia asks.

"Yeah, you never know it could be a good alien." Dustin chimes.

Shane and Skyla land in another part of the forest after they ran into Zurgane. A few seconds, Shane did his best to regain his balance after they landed.

"Now that was a neat trick." Shane says.

"Thanks," Skyla says.

"Were you the one who helped me when I ran into Zurgane before?" Shane asks.

"Yes, but you'll have to thank me later." Skyla says as she starts to walk down the path. "We need to keep moving because I don't have much time left."

"Hold on, I don't even know who you are."

"I could explain it to you." Skyla sighs, "trust me, it's not going to help the situation."

"Maybe, but…" Shane stammers.

"What you haven't seen an alien before." Skyla says.

"I have but they don't look as pleasing on the eyes like you."

"Guys, we've got a big problem." Cam says.

"What is it Cam?" Sasha asks.

"If that ship continues to remain cloaked," Cam says.

"We won't be able to track it." Cyber Cam chimes.

"Have you've been able to find Shane?" Tori asks.

"No, I hate to say it, but his morpher frequency is still jammed," Cam says.

"He has to be close to the disturbance dude," Cyber Cam chimes again.

Cam sighs in frustration as he hit the middle button on the console. A few seconds later Cyber Cam disappears.

"Gotcha, call us as soon as you find anything new." Hunter says.

"Will do," Cam says.

= Silver Lightning=

Hunter, Tori and Sasha walk back over to the group.

"Guys, I know we're here to celebrate my birthday, but I think we should head home." Tori says.

"Okay," Sophia says sadly.

"Let's get going before Lothor tries to distract us by sending some Kelzacks to attack the other people here." Dustin agrees.

Sophia hears screams coming from the other direction. She turns around to see people running towards them.

Dustin, I really wish that you would've kept your big mouth shut. Sophia thinks.

"Let's go guys, we need to help." Blake says.

The group runs over towards to the side of the park where the attack is. After they arrive the team guides everyone to safety. Then they start fighting the kelzacks. Sophia kicks one of them into the wave pool. A huge splash is created as it hit the water. She runs back over to the others.

"Guys, does anyone think that we should morph so we can end this battle faster." Sophia says.

"I'm in; no one messes with my birthday and gets away with it." Tori snarls.

"Ready?" Hunter says.

"Ready!" The others shout.

"Ninja Storm Ranger form,"

"Thunder Storm Ranger Form,"

"Lightning Storm Ranger Form,"

"Power or Earth"

"Power of Water"

"Power of thunder,"

"Power of Lightning,"

After they finish beating the Kelzacks, they hear their morphers go off.

"What's wrong Cam?"

"Zurgane built a new zord and he is taking it out for a test drive," Cam answers.

"Can't you just send us our zords?" Hunter asks.

"I can't access the portal for the thunder zords." Cam answers.

"What about our zords?" Sophia asks.

"The portal to your zords is blocked too." Cam says.

"Please tell us there is a bright side." Sophia whines.

"Yes, there is Soph, Dustin and Tori you two are still able to use the storm megazord I can use mine too." Cam informs.

"Good," Sophia says.

Tori and Dustin head off to fight Zurgane. While the others demorph and go back to Tori's van to drive to wind ninja school.

Back in the forest, Shane and Skyla decide to take a quick break. They sit down on a fallen log.

"This day started off because of my weird dream," Shane sighs, "Now it has become a nightmare that I can't wake up from."

"Wow, you love to whine, don't you?" Skyla says.

"Not really,"

"Do you remember that we meet here before when you were a kid?" Skyla asks, as she smiles.

"Hold on, you were the talking ball of light stuck in the spider web?" Shane asks in shock.

"Yes, you saved me back then. I came back to return the favor." Skyla says sincerely.

= Silver Lightning=

The team was sitting around the table like they were the day before.

"Cam, how bad is the storm and samurai star megazord damaged?" Sasha asks.

"Really bad, Sasha, it's hard to say how long it will take to make the repairs." Cam answers.

"Did you have any luck access our zords?" Hunter asks.

"I still can't access the portal, but I'm doing my best to figure out why I can't access them." Cam explains.

"I hate to say this, but Sensei should have picked another day to go on his retreat." Sophia says.

"Yeah, Tori, I bet this the worst birthday you've ever had." Dustin chimes.

"Honesty, I don't even what to think about that right now." Tori says.

"Yeah, I have to agree with Tori. Shane could be in big trouble and we can't even contact him." Sasha adds.

= Silver Lightning=

"So, Skyla, what does the shark face freak want to capture you so bad?" Shane asks.

"I can here to give you something that could change the tide if the battle." Skyla says.

Shane turns around and see Zurgane standing behind him. He picks him and throws him hard towards the tree closest to him. Shane moans as slowly gets to his feet. He catches a glimpse of Zurgane forcefully dragging Skyla away.

"Shane, help me." Skyla shouts.

"Skyla," Shane shouts.
