Tracy spent the night dreaming about Antonio. She changes into the training outfit. The team is in the living room, sitting around the coffee table, eating breakfast.
"Buenos días, bontina, how did you sleep?" Antonio greets.
"Good morning to you too, Guapo. It's much better than I did on the flight here." She answers.
Tracy is so distracted that she forgets about the ledge between the hallway and the step into the living room. As her left foot slips, she nearly trips over her feet and starts to fall.
"Careful, Princesa, princess, that's a pretty big drop. I'd hate to see you get hurt so soon after your first battle," Antonio says, catching her right before she hits the floor.
"Thanks for the save, but I thought you were only fast when you are the Gold Ranger," Tracy says, trying not to blush as she looks up at him.
"De Nada, you're welcome, pretty lady. I don't need the suit to be fast. It's just an amazing accessory," Antonio says, helping her to her feet.
"Are those two cute together or what?" Emily asks.
"I know Em," Mia adds.
"I wonder how long the flirt session will last till Ji breaks them up," Mike says.
"Not too long, Mike," Ji says. "Tracy, Antonio, you two can act cute after morning training,"
After breakfast, Mike watches Tracy train with two small wooden swords that her father used to train her to use her penguin sabers.
"Tracy, why are you using two swords?" Mike asks.
"They are my training weapons for the penguin daggers; it's the weapon my spin sword will become when I use the penguin disc," Tracy says.
"Tracy, why don't you train with Antonio?" Ji suggests.
Sure, have me train with the Ranger, whose attacks are as fast as lightning: no pressure or anything, Tracy thinks.
"Are you sure about this, Ji?" Antonio asks hesitantly.
Ji nods. Antonio grabs a bamboo sword. They walk over to the platform and begin sparring; Tracy focuses on what she is doing. When Antonio swings his sword at her feet, she jumps over it. When she lands and brings her hands forward to counter-attack, the hail kanji appears when the blades cross in front of each other. Tracy accidentally activates it when she brings her swords to her chest. The hail stones fly off the ends. Tracy quickly drops her training swords and starts to back backward.
"Oh no, I did again. Antonio, Lo Siento. I'm sorry. Are you okay?" Tracy asks, seeing small scratches and cuts on his arms and face from where small shards of ice hit them when he deflected the hail stones.
"I'm fine," Antonio says.
Tracy sees the platform's edge from the corner of her eye and jumps down when she reaches it.
"Tracy, are you okay?" Antonio asks, watching Tracy wince in pain as she lands on her right ankle.
Tracy nods and stands up straight, but the sudden rush of pain causes her to have a dizzy spell. When she sets her right foot down, she drops to her knees and blinks her eyes a few times to shake it off. Then she quickly stands up and takes out her samuraizer. She draws a power symbol and covers the swords in a huge mound of snow.
Tracy looks down at her ankle. She sees it beginning to swell up. Tracy whispers a few colorful words in Spanish under her breath. She returns to the house and gets ten steps before the pain hits her like a truck. She begins to fall backward. Antonio runs over to her and catches her in his arms.
"Gracias, Thanks, Antonio, nice catch," Tracy says, trying not to blush.
"De Nada, Are you okay?" Antonio asks.
"Yes, Etas Bien, I'm okay. I just got dizzy. You can put me down now," Tracy says.
Tracy winces in pain as her right foot touches the ground. She holds her breath to keep herself from swearing in Spanish again.
"Tracy, let Antonio help you inside. You've already had two dizzy spells. You'll end up fainting if you continue to push yourself to walk on your ankle," Ji says.
"JI is right. You can hardly walk on it as it is," Jayden says.
"I'm not going to faint, ¡Ay! I can make it to the living room." Tracy says.
"You got your stubborn streak from your father," Ji says.
"Ji, no estoy siendo terco," Tracy says.
"What did she just say?" Mike says.
"She's not being stubborn," Antonio says.
"Ji, you are confusing me with my dad," Tracy says.
"Ji, you knew Tracy's dad," Mike asks.
"Yes, we became good friends while he stayed here when he went to college," Ji says.
Tracy wants to walk into the house alone but feels she has lost this battle. So, she reluctantly allows Antonio to help her the rest of the way into the house. Tracy does her best not to blush and puts her left arm around Antonio's neck. They head back inside the house with Ji flowing close behind. Antonio helps her into the living room and over to one of the chairs in front of the coffee table. Tracy puts her arm back at her side and sits down. Ji goes over to the stack of pillows he set up. He takes one off the top and walks back over to Tracy. He hands it to her.
"Thanks," Tracy says.
She sets the pillow on the table. She reaches down to untie her shoe. She carefully removes her shoe and sock, but her ankle hurts when she moves it. She looks down at it. Her ankle is black and blue. Now, it swells to the size of a tennis ball. Tracy tries to keep calm and not faint. She looks back up at Antonio.
"I'll go get the first aid kit and an ice pack," JI says.
"Ji, you don't have to go get an ice pack, but you can get the first aid kit," she says.
"What do you mean?" Antonio asks in a curious tone.
"I'll do you one better and show you." She answers.
Tracy takes out her samuraizer and draws a symbol in the air. She activates it, and an ice pack appears.
"When did you learn that symbol?" JI asks.
"A while ago, I just remembered that I knew it just now," Tracy answers.
"Tracy, don't overdo it, remember," Ji says as he leaves the room.
"Lo sé, I know using symbol power can be incredibly draining," Tracy sighs.
JI returns with the first aid kit as the other ranges enter them.
"Did you twist your ankle?" Emily asks.
"Yeah, but it's not that bad," she replies.
The Gap Sensor sounds. Ji unrolls the map. JI tells them that the attack is in the forest outside the city.
"Let's go, team," Jayden says.
"I'm coming with you," Tracy says as she takes her foot off the pillow.
Jayden sees Tracy wince when her right foot hits the floor. She walks to the door and limps the whole way. She is about to open the front door when a third dizzy spell hits her. Antonio dashes over to her and catches her in his arms for the second time.
"Are you going to make a habit of having me catch you when you fall?" Antonio asks.
"No, and you don't have to be the one who catches me. You can let one of the others do it," Tracy answers.
Antonio chuckles. He helps her back over to the chair.
"Tracy, you're in no shape to fight. Stay put and rest. We can handle this," Jayden says.
Tracy knows that Jayden is right but wants to help the team. She sits back down, sighing in defeat. The Rangers run off to battle. Meanwhile, in the forest, a Nighlok terrorizes the poor creatures that live there and the people trying to enjoy nature's peaceful serenity. The team leads the people to safety.
"Only six Rangers. I guess the seventh Ranger is too afraid to fight." The Nighlok says.
"It's already six on one. Do you want to make it even more lopsided?" Antonio says.
"The more Rangers I take down at once, the better." the Nighlok says confidently.
They morph, and the Nighlok summons up some Moogers to attack them. They enter through the gaps and charge toward the Rangers. The Rangers use their spin sword attacks to defeat the Moogers.
"You are next, Nighlok," Jayden shouts.
The Rangers use the quintuple slash and aim it towards the Nighlok.
"Nice try, Rangers, not even a scratch." The Nighlok says, laughing evilly.
The battle continues for a few more minutes; the Nighlok dries out and slips back through a gap to the Sanzu River. The Rangers enter the house and turn to their right to face the dojo. Jayden sees Tracy leaning against the far wall, fast asleep with a sword in her right hand.
"What now, Jayden?" Emily asks.
"Let her sleep, and I'll come back to check on her in a bit. We should focus on a new plan to defeat that Nighlok." Jayden says.
The other rangers leave, except for him and Antonio.
"You'll wait till she wakes up, starts to train again, and then sneak in on her, right Jay?" Antonio asks his best friend.
"Man, Antonio, you know me too well," Jayden says.
"Yup, we are best friends after all," Antonio says.
In the Dojo, Tracy wakes up and uses the sword to push herself back to her feet. She limps back to the middle of the room, but her bad ankle refuses to let her put a lot of pressure or weight on it. She ignores it and then goes back to work.
"I'm getting faster, but I'll never be as fast as Antonio." She says, thinking out loud.
"You might become even faster than me if you keep at it," Antonio says.
Tracy jumps and lands on her bad ankle. She falls to her knees and looks up at the boys.
"¡Diablos! warn a girl next time, huh." She snaps.
"Sorry about that; I didn't mean to scare you." Antonio apologizes as he walks over to her and offers Tracy his hand.
Then he helps her back to her feet. Jayden looks towards the far wall and sees three used ice packs lying on the floor.
"Where did all the ice packs come from?" Jayden asks.
"I made them with my symbol power," Tracy answers.
She looks down and sees the old ice pack on her ankle has melted. She takes out her samuraizer and draws the ice pack symbol. Then, it activates, and a new ice pack appears.
"Didn't Ji tell you that using symbol power is incredibly draining?" Jayden asks.
"No, he told me not to overdo it," Tracy says.
Tracy begins to feel dizzy and loses her balance again. She starts to fall backward, and Antonio catches her before she hits the floor. He helps her back to her feet for the second time.
"Don't you think you are overdoing it just a little?" Antonio asks.
"No, not really," Tracy says confidently.
She bends back down to put the new ice pack on her ankle. As soon as she unwraps the old ice pack and puts the new ice pack on, she gets back to her feet. A few seconds later, she drifts back into a deep sleep. Her samuraizer starts to fall out of her left hand. Jayden catches it before it hits the floor, and Antonio catches her for the third time. Antonio looks down at her and sees her sleeping like a baby.
"We should take her back to her bedroom," Jayden suggests as he slowly takes the sword from Tracy's right hand and puts it away.
Then he takes Tracy out of Antonio's arms and cradles her in his. He puts her on Antonio's back, and they leave the dojo. They walk into her room, and Jayden puts Tracy's samuraizer on the end table next to the bed. Then, Jayden grabs a few extra pillows to prop her ankle up. He sets it at the end of the bed, takes Tracy off Antonio's back, and gently puts her on it. Antonio picks the extra blanket off the end of the bed. He drapes it across her body, and they leave the room quietly. Antonio closes the door slowly.
"Tracy's determination got the best of her, didn't it, Jay?" Antonio asks his friend.
Jayden nods. They go to the living room and sit in the extra chairs, and a few seconds later, the gap sensor goes off again. The rest of the team dashes into the room. Ji informs the group that it is at the Highville construction site. The Rangers run off to battle again. People are screaming and running away from the Nighlok at the construction site.
"That's it. Run, pesky humans. The rangers I'm going to defeat should be here any minute." It says.
Jayden uses his spin sword attack to make a dramatic entrance. It flies back a few feet and gets back to its feet.
"Nice entrance, Rangers. It's too bad this battle will end like our last battle did," it says confidently.
"I don't think so, Nighlok, because we've got your number this time," Mike yells.
The Rangers battle the Nighlok, and it seems to have the upper hand again.
"Give up, Rangers," It says
"A true samurai never gives up," Kevin says.
Antonio charges toward the Nighlok. He gets within range, and the Nighlok grabs him mid-attack. It throws him towards a steel beam. Antonio hits the beam hard.
"Antonio!" Emily shouts.
"Don't worry, Em, I'm fine," Antonio says.
He gets back to his feet. The Nighlok fires his laser attack at Antonio.
"Antonio, look out," Jayden yells.
Antonio gets to his feet and draws his blade. The attack is so fast that he cannot deflect it in time. As the attack comes within range, a folding zord flies in and deflects it, saving him.
"Hey, Nighlok, anyone who hurts my new friends/ or Antonio has to answer to me," Tracy yells.
"Just the Ranger I wanted to see. Now I can defeat all seven samurai Rangers at once." It says.
Tracy morphs and draws a new symbol into the air.
"Try to dodge this Nighlok. Symbol power Blizzard!" Tracy yells.
When the attack hits, nothing happens. Tracy is in shock, considering she put everything into that last attack.
"I thought that the attack would have more strength behind it, ranger," It says
Tracy demorphs and falls to her knees. She looks up to see another laser blast coming toward her.
"Tracy, look out!" Antonio shouts.
Deker jumps out of the shadows and draws out a sword, then uses it to deflect the attack.
"Deker, why did you save me?" Tracy asks, slowly getting to her feet.
"You'll find out soon enough, Silver Ranger." He says.
Tracy starts to feel weak and dizzy. A few seconds later, she feels herself falling forward. Deker catches her in his arms. Tracy pushes him away quickly. She won't accept help from a bad guy. She knows that it is a trap. The only problem is that her brain knows it was a bad idea. On the other hand, her body has other plans, and she faints. Deker catches her in his arms again.
"I'll take care of the silver ranger from here," Deker says as he leaves, carrying Tracy in his arms.
"Come back with my friend," Antonio calls to Deker.
"Jayden, we have to help Tracy," Emily says.
"We will, Em, but we need to deal with the Nighlok first," Jayden says.
The Rangers use the beetle cannon and the barracuda bite combo to defeat the Nighlok. It grows to the size of Yankee Stadium. The rangers called for the zords and went into megamode. Then, they formed the Octo spear Megazord. The Rangers fought valiantly and defeated the Nighlok.
"Good work, guys. Samurai Rangers, victory is ours. Jayden says.
"Guys, we still need to find Tracy," Antonio says.
