Author's Note: You guys don't really expect me to write Ninja Storm and not finish with the team up, do you? I don't own anything in here except my own original ideas. Comments are welcomed, reviews are better!

Kelly glanced up at the sign as she stepped out of the car. She and Hunter were meeting up in Reefside with Blake and they were going to bring him home during his few days of vacation so he and Tori could meet up. The original plan was that Tori come up to visit him, but Sensei had called an emergency meeting and left the details rather cryptic.

They had arranged to meet up with Blake in a local café that went by the name of Hayley's Cyberspace. Kelly thought it was a good idea, being an entrepreneur herself. Kids loved technology and they loved food, probably more than they loved sports.

"C'mon," Hunter smiled as he locked up the car, "Stop staring and let's go in. It's been a while since I've seen my bro."

Kelly nodded her head, taking Hunter's hand as they walked in. The two gazed around quickly and spotted Blake at the bar with his pal Jesse as well as another girl, dressed in yellow.

Hunter ignored the fact that Blake was in the middle of the conversation and rushed right over, grabbing his brother.

When Hunter let go Blake introduced everyone. Jesse, upon seeing Hunter, had dropped Blake's bags off by the counter, said his goodbyes and took off. He had only tagged along to keep Blake company. Now he needed to head off for some practice laps before the big race.

"Uh, Hunter, Kelly, this is Kira," Blake said, pointing to the girl in yellow. "Kira, this is my bro Hunter and his girlfriend Kelly."

"Your brother?" Kira frowned, noting there was not a familiar trait between the two boys at all.

"We're adopted," Hunter explained. Kira let out a small gasp.

"Oh, I'…"

"Don't sweat it," Blake smiled. "We get it all the time. So how about my offer?"

"Are you asking me out?" Kira asked. Blake shook his head.

"No, no, not at all," he said. "Part of being a rider is spreading the word of our sport. You know, like getting people to come out. People who never would on their own. I take it you're not really a sports fan, are you?"

"Music is my thing," Kira nodded.

"Well, I promise you, you'll totally be into it," Blake smiled.

Kira shook her head, "I guess. The guys would probably love it."

"The more the merrier," Blake smirked before letting Kira go. He turned to Hunter and Kelly, and then the clock, "Wow, perfect timing, dudes."

"It's easier to get out the door when Hunter actually wants to travel," Kelly laughed. She checked her watch, "But, um, if we're going to surprise Tori, we're going to have to leave now. The meeting wasn't supposed to last all day."

"Are you sure you'll be okay to some extra traveling right before the big race?" Hunter asked as his grabbed his brother's bags.

"Dude, if I had to go another few months without seeing you or Tori I don't think I would have to worry about how I performed in this race. You don't know how long I've been looking forward to today."

"We can imagine," Kelly smirked. "Tori couldn't stop talking about it. Leanne and I had set up a countdown in the surf shop."

"You should have seen her face when Sensei called the meeting and refused to let her back out," Hunter laughed. "It was priceless."

-Reefside-

As the three Senseis traveled through the forest in search of Sensei Watanabe, Tori couldn't help but chuckle to herself. They had all just finished up their training with a small group of students, and Tori had noticed just how much Shane was beginning to sound like Sensei. It freaked her out to be honest, but she needed to focus on what made her smile.

If she had it her way, by now she would be getting showered and changed and on her way up to Reefside to visit her boyfriend, whom she hadn't seen in months. She had been looking forward to this day since he took off and was completely devastated she had to cancel on him. She would be lying if she said that some of the punches she threw at her students weren't for Sensei Watanabe's head.

But she cleared her mind and tried not to act like she was completely bummed out. If she did, Dustin would just initiate another awkward hug.

"You know, Shane, you kinda sounded like Sensei back there."

"Yeah, well, speaking of Sensei, wasn't he supposed to meet us here?" Shane frowned, looking around the forest for any sign on his master.

"Do you think he forgot?" Dustin asked. Tori turned to him.

"He said it was urgent, he wouldn't forget."

"Yeah, and if he did he would have to suffer the wrath of the angry girlfriend," Shane smirked, turning to Tori. She glared at him.

"Don't make me go there."

"Hey, check it out," Dustin said, grabbing Tori's arm as he pointed to a scroll hanging from a tree. The three Senseis rushed over to it, praying he wasn't cancelling this urgent meeting. They had all given up too much to be here.

"Tori, Shane, Dustin," Shane began reading, "Go to the highest point in Blue Bay Harbour. Meet me there at Sunset."

"Do not speak of this matter until I have spoken to you," Dustin finished reading off the letter. He turned to his two friends. "Well, that's a bummer."

Tori rolled her eyes, "At least the meeting's not cancelled."

"If it's so urgent, why did he push it back?" Shane asked.

"I don't want to think of that right now," Tori said as she unzipped the top of her uniform, allowing herself to loosen up. The one thing she hated about the leather uniforms were that they were so tight. Shane and Dustin didn't hesitate to do the same.

-Reefside-

"Dude, you moved in with Kelly?" Blake asked as he set his bags down in Kelly's loft and noticed a few of Hunter's items were scattered around.

"Yeah, of course," Hunter nodded. "I don't make enough to pay rent on my own."

"Where am I supposed to sleep, then?" Blake asked. "I was looking forward to sleeping in my bed."

"I'm sure Tori will let you stay with her," Kelly smirked as she walked to the fridge. "She bought her own place with Leanne just a few minutes from her shop. Do you want anything to drink?"

"No thanks," Blake declined. "How is the shop coming along?"

"Pretty good," Hunter nodded. "The Grand Opening is in a few weeks. Right now we're all just helping unpack boxes and set up shelves."

"Sounds great. I'll see if I have some time off around then," Blake smiled. He checked the time quickly, "What time will I get to see her at?"

"Not too sure," Kelly frowned. "Leanne's going to call me when she gets home. Until then, you and Hunter have some catching up to do."

-Reefside-

Tori, Shane and Dustin walked to their meeting point and saw their Sensei looking out at the water with a look of concern on his face. The three approached him slowly, alerting him of their presence, without disturbing him.

"Sensei," Tori called softly, "is everything alright?"

"No, Tori," Sensei said, turning away from the water. "I'm afraid it's not."

"You don't look so hot," Dustin commented before Shane smacked him in the arm, "Uh, I mean, no offense."

"None taken, Dustin."

"So what's up?" Shane asked.

"He's back," Sensei said, turning back to the water. "Lothor is back."

"Wait, dude, Lothor can't be back," Dustin frowned, eyeing his friends before looking back at Sensei.

"We saw him disappear into the abyss of evil," Tori pointed out.

"Wait… if Lothor really is back, how are we going to fight him without powers?" Dustin asked, bringing up a good point. They had won their final battle without their Ranger powers, but the suits had proven useful many times. There was no way they could defeat Lothor without a little help and protection.

Sensei held his hands out, at which a box materialized in his hands, confusing Shane, Dustin and Tori.

"Cam has been saving these for just such an occasion," Sensei said as he opened the box, revealing the three Wind Ninja Morphers. "Shane, Tori, Dustin it is with a heavy heart that I must give you your morphers. A dark cloud has descended upon us, and it is time for you to resume your duties as Power Rangers."

The three Rangers strapped their morphers to their wrists, feeling the adrenaline coming back. It was only now they realised just how much they loved and missed being Rangers.

Shane looked at his Sensei, "We won't let you down."

He, Tori and Dustin pressed on their morphers to activate them, but felt an unfamiliar surge of energy running through them, Sparks flew from the morphers, as well as their bodies, as the three of them collapsed to the ground, breathing heavily.

"Well?" Sensei asked, his voice changing suddenly as he watched the Rangers with a devilish grin on his face, "How do you feel?"

"Like Blue Bay Harbour must be destroyed," Shane replied.

"Why stop there?" Tori smirked, "I want the whole country."

"And then the world!" Dustin added.

"That's what I was hoping you would say!" Sensei shouted before changing almost instantly with a wave of his hand, into Lothor. "I never thought I would say this, but it's a pleasure to see y'all!"

"And it's our pleasure to serve under you," Shane said as he bowed.

-Reefside-

Blake and Hunter had long since run out of things to discuss. They had talked on the phone often enough, that there wasn't too much news to share. Blake's eyes continued to stray over to the clock as he wondered how long Tori's meeting could have been.

Hunter looked over to the kitchen, where Kelly had reluctantly decided to start making dinner.

"Maybe your sister forgot to call," he said.

"Leanne wouldn't forget," Kelly frowned.

It was then that the phone rang. Kelly put down the pot and grabbed it.

"Leanne?"

"Yeah, but I have some bad news. Think you guys can come to the Academy?"

"Why?" Kelly said. Blake and Hunter turned, hearing her unusual tone. "Is everyone okay?"

"Define okay."

"We're on our way," Kelly said as she hung up. She pointed to the coat rack, "I guess we're going to the Academy."

"What was that about?" Hunter asked. Kelly shrugged as she turned off the stove and placed everything in the fridge.

"I don't know, but something's happened."

-Reefside-

"So, you think it's Lothor?" Hunter asked as he, Blake, Cam and Leanne walked around the wreckage. The Wind Ninja Academy had been attacked, and all the students had been taken. Cam had been out in the forest, looking for his father when the attack happened. He could only assume Lothor was behind it after finding some goo that he recognised from the Abyss. However, as much as the school and the students were a concern, he was worried about Tori, Shane and Dustin. He hadn't seen them since they left to speak with his father, and if Lothor really was on the loose, he would be after them.

"It would have to be," Cam sighed. "Who else leaves purple slim in their wake?"

"You haven't seen the others?" Kelly asked.

"Not since they left," Leanne frowned. "We're a bit worried. I even tried calling Tori, but I got her voicemail. I left her a message, telling her Blake was in town… but nothing."

"Now I'm worried, dude," Blake said. "Do you think Lothor got them? It wouldn't be the first time he's played the con card."

"You better hope this is a con and that the guys are still alive," Kelly said. "I'm going to go check around town. Maybe I'll find them there."

"I'll come with you," Leanne nodded, refusing to leave her sister alone now that Lothor was possibly back. She turned to her brothers and her boyfriend, "Why don't you guys check the Abyss? If Lothor's escaped, he would definitely have left his mark."

"Good thinking," Hunter said. "You two be careful."

"We're not going to the Abyss," Kelly said.

Kelly and Leanne turned and ran for the exit and quickly hopped into the car. When Kelly turned it on, the radio started up. Leanne flicked through the stations, hoping to catch the news. If Lothor was back, they would hear about it.

"… wore a mask over his face and ran once police… a woman leaves her child in the… in other news, the Dino Rangers in Reefside have finally met their match as they face off against…"

"No, wait, go back," Kelly told her sister as Leanne changed the station. Leanne shrugged, flipping back.

"… could this be the end of the Dino Rangers? It seems the rivalry between Reefside and Blue Bay has gotten to these colour superheroes. Stay tuned as we cover this fateful fight."

"Well," Leanne frowned. "Reefside?"

"One step ahead of you," Kelly nodded as she drove back onto the path and headed in the direction of Reefside.

-Reefside-

The city was completely deserted, which was normally a bad sign, but Leanne and Kelly were looking for a fight. Something had happened to Shane, Tori and Dustin and it was making them fight the Dino Rangers all the way in Reefside.

Leanne picked up on the sounds of metal bins crushing and small explosions and led Kelly through a maze of alleyways until they finally reached the sight of the battle. Wanting to stay as far away as possible until they came up with a plan, Kelly pointed to one of the abandoned buildings. At the top was a bridge, connecting it to the other building. From that bridge, they could looked down and examine the fight.

When they reached the top Leanne grabbed Kelly's arm, holding her back.

"Whatever happens, don't you dare move from this spot," she told her sister. Kelly nodded. The last place she wanted to be was in the middle of a Ranger battle. Leanne could take care of breaking up the fight on her own.

Shane kicked the Red Dino Ranger in the chest, sending him flying into his team-mates, knocking them all down while the Winds regrouped, laughing maniacally. As they were about to finish off the Dino Rangers, Leanne summoned her Thunder staff, pulled her mask over her face and jumped down, landing right between the two teams of Rangers.

Shane, Dustin and Tori pulled back when they saw the ninja and immediately recognised her.

"Out of the way, Leanne," Shane barked. "This fight doesn't concern you."

"This isn't you, guys," Leanne said. "You have to stop this."

Dustin tapped Shane, "C'mon, dude, I've had enough fun for one day. We'll finish them off another time."

Shane nodded in agreement. As he turned to leave, he gazed back at the Dino Rangers.

"Expect us soon," he said.

The Dino Rangers got to their feet, powering down. They weren't worried about protecting their identities from Leanne; she was obviously on their side. And, anyways, she already knew one team of Rangers.

"Uh, thanks," Conner, the red Ranger said as Leanne pulled off her mask. "We owe you one."

"We just want our friends back," Leanne said. She looked up at Kelly, signalling that it was okay for her to come down.

Conner held out his hand, "I'm Conner, this is Kira and Ethan."

"Leanne," Leanne said. "The Rangers you were just fighting are my friends. Shane, Dustin and Tori. Something's happened to them and we're not quite sure."

"You keep saying we…" Ethan frowned before Kelly ran out of the building. Leanne smiled and pointed.

"This is my sister Kelly. We're both here to help you guys."

Kira looked at Kelly for a moment before recognising her.

"I met you at Cyberspace," she said. "You were with that motorcycle guys."

"Motocross," Kelly corrected, "And yeah, Blake."

"You didn't tell me you knew the Power Rangers," Kira said, only to realise how stupid that statement was. Kelly laughed.

"Well, you didn't tell me you were the Power Rangers," she smiled.

"Look, maybe this isn't the best place to talk," Conner said. "Why don't we head back to Dr. O's?"

"Are you sure that's a good idea?" Ethan questioned. "These guys know those evil Rangers. What if this is a plan."

Conner pointed to the symbol on Leanne's chest, recognising it.

"Remember how I told you my brother trained at a Ninja school?" Conner said.

"I remember you telling us about how he flunked out," Kira laughed.

"Well, she's from the other school," Conner said.

"Thunder Ninja Academy," Leanne nodded. "You can trust us."

"And if you don't believe her, I can't fight for shit," Kelly laughed. "I'm just the store owner who one day got in way over her head."

"I guess we're going to Dr. O's," Ethan shrugged. Conner nodded and smiled as he led the way home.
