Yep. This one is a bit sad; it's about Molly's past. Try not to tear up, but if you do, don't say I didn't warn you.

Disclaimer: I own only my own characters.


"So you guys are from Oshu Temple?" Hunter asked. He couldn't seem to stop staring at Katherine.

"Yep, born and raised. Our parents were two of the last dragon fighters. They passed it on to us." Peter explained.

"So did you know a girl named Molly? Molly St. Pierre?" Shane asked.

This question caught the twins off guard. "Molly? How do you know her? Where is she? She's here?" The seemed excited.

"Well, no. She's working for Dao, the guy who's trying take us out." Dustin replied as soon as Marah and Kapri entered with Kapri holding a tray of lemonade.

"But that's impossible. Molly was taken from the temple seven years ago. We thought that she was…"Katherine trailed off as a tear slipped from her eye.

"So you know her." It wasn't a question that came from Tori's mouth.

Peter sighed. "We grew up with her. Maybe we should sit down, this could take a while." They all sat on small cushions at the table in Ninja Ops with a glass of lemonade each in front of them.

"We already know the story of the two dragons and how they wanted to be human. How did Molly get her powers? Which one trained her?" Blake asked for everyone.

"They both did." Katherine answered. "Their names were Sandra Dobbs and Marcus St. Pierre. Molly is their daughter and the last of the true dragon fighters."

This caused silence until Marah spoke up. "But you said you were dragon fighters."

"Our parents were trained by one of Molly's. We only use dragon style fighting; we do not have the powers that a true dragon fighter would, like Molly. You've seen her powers, I take it?" Peter sipped his lemonade.

"Yeah, only the black one though. She summoned some sword." Hunter said.

"The Yin Blade." Katherine corrected. "Molly has the ability to summon two weapons: The Yin Blade and The Yang Fan. The Yin Blade is mostly used for attack while The Yang Fan is defence."

"Anyway," Peter interrupted, "Molly grew up with us at Oshu Temple. We lived with her parents, our parents and our teacher; Master Ken. Because we were the last ones of the fighting style, they had to keep us safe; Mostly Molly because of her powers. If they fell into the wrong hands, they could to a lot more than just cut you."

"Because of the origins of Molly's powers, they control The Balance." Katherine supplied.

"What's the balance?" Shane asked.

"The Balance is what we call the dark and the light. If used properly, they can heal and help. If used wrongly, they can hurt and destroy. But used together, they can unlock something powerful." Katherine said.

"Like what?" Hunter asked.

"We don't know. The powers of Yin and Yang have never been within the same host before. Molly is the first. Something like it happened years ago…but it was by accident and Molly was angry. One can only use the powers at the same time when they are completely balanced." Katherine replied.

There was a pause for a few moments, until Cam spoke up. "So what happened to Molly that made her join forces with Dao?"

The twins looked at each other. "A little over seven years ago, there was an attack on the temple…"


"Katherine? Peter?" A small voice came from the door of their shared room. Katherine was up first, going to the door and sliding it open to reveal a small girl in their doorway with long, light brown hair and wide metallic grey eyes hidden behind a pair of black glasses.

"What's wrong, Molly?" Katherine asked.

"I had a nightmare. It was the dragons again. They were crying and there were screams and red fire and…" Molly rambled on until she was pulled into the room by Katherine.

"Molly, calm down." Katherine said. "You've got nothing to worry about, there's no red fire, no screaming, no nothing. It was only a nightmare." Peter joined the duo in comforting the younger girl.

Suddenly, there was a frantic scream coming from outside and a rumble of the ground. "Looks like you spoke too soon." Peter said.

"Katherine, Peter! Have you seen…?" A woman with flaming red hair and green eyes opened the door. A breath of relief escaped her when she saw all of them. "Oh thank goodness you're all here. Your mother and father are looking for you, Molly. We have to get out of here."

Two men came by next. One of them had mousy brown hair and blue eyes and one had dark eyes and long black hair in a ponytail. "Dad, what's happening?" Peter asked.

The man with brown hair spoke. "Someone is attacking the temple. We have to get out of here. Sandra and Marcus are waiting in the room." Their father picked up Peter while the mother took Katherine.

"Come on, Molly. We have to go now." The dark haired man picked up Molly.

"Okay, Uncle Tommy." Molly held on as they all raced down the hallway.

"Sandra! Marcus!" They entered a large room where a man and a woman were holding each other.

"Oh thank goodness you're all okay." Sandra, a woman with long white hair, pale skin and dark brown, nearly black, eyes hugged everyone. "Molly, we were so worried about you."

"I'm sorry. I had a nightmare about the dragons. They were crying and there were screams and red fire."

"It's alright Molly." Marcus, with jet black hair, tanned skin and icy white coloured eyes, smiled at his daughter.

"Where's Ken?" Tommy asked.

"I'm over here." Master Ken, a tall, dark haired man with brown eyes, was standing behind a curtain near a window. "The secret passageway will take everyone to the base of the mountain. We can get away from them if we hurry."

Unfortunately, before any of them could move, the door was blasted open by a powerful force, causing them all to be blasted away. The children were protected by their parents.

"So this is Oshu Temple." A dark voice rumbled. Everyone looked up to see a man standing there with a demonic face, dark hair and eyes. Molly hid in her mother's chest, afraid of the man already.

"You must be Dao." Master Ken stood up.

"That I am. I am here for the girl." He looked towards Molly, who was still hiding. "So you're the child with The Balance. You seem so young, so naïve. You'll be the perfect soldier."

"You're not going to take her." Marcus stood up and got into a fighting position. Tommy did the same.

"We'll have to see about that." Dao extended his hand and swiped at them. Sheer, dark power rippled from his hand and threw all of them back into the wall.

"Daddy, Uncle Tommy!" Molly cried as she wriggled from her mother's grasp to go to them.

"Molly, no!" Her mother called, but it was too late. Dao grabbed her from behind and hoisted her up under his arm.

"Put me down!" Molly started to kick him.

"Molly!" Her mother and father charged at Dao.

Dao narrowed his eyes and extended his free hand and shot a large black wave at them, causing them to shoot back into the wall. They quickly regained themselves and went after Dao. Sandra's hands glowed white and Marcus's glowed black. They attacked and caused Dao to drop Molly.

"That's enough!" Dao yelled and a large black ripple erupted from his body, throwing everyone back into the corner.

Molly, who was separated from them, could only look at all of their unconscious forms. She saw how her mom and dad were hurt, and something snapped. "You hurt them. You hurt my mommy and daddy. You hurt all of them." Molly's eyes changed colour automatically, her right one became black while her left turned white. Her left hand glowed black and the other white. "How dare you!" There was a blinding light, half white, half black that surrounded everyone and two simultaneous roars erupted from Molly. The white rushed over to her family and healed them, while its opposite attacked Dao in a flurry of power.

Tommy looked at Molly once he recovered, her powers spilling our without a second thought. "Molly!" He raced towards her and tried to grab onto her, only to have Dao break from the Yin and attack Tommy, sending him back with the others.

"I will not leave empty handed!" Dao roared once more before he grabbed Molly's right arm and started a chant, causing Molly to scream in pain.

"Molly!" Everyone started to get up, only to have a full-fledged attack from Dao to blast them and cause the ceiling to cave in on them.

Molly's power deflated as she looked in horror. "NO!" She made a run until Dao knocked her out with a powerful hit to the back of the head.

Seeing that the rubble started to move, Dao finished the seal on Molly's arm. Grabbing her and slinging her over his shoulder, he took one last look at the ruined Temple before he vanished in a mass of black smoke.

He was, however, unaware that there were a set of semi-conscious twins watching through the debris.

All they could do was watch as Molly was taken…


"That night still haunted us. We could only watch as Molly was taken from us." Peter finished the tale, with his twin crying next to him.

The mood in the room was solemn, depressing really. Marah and Kapri were crying and Tori was trying not to. All of the guys were still reeling from the story.

"What happened to Molly's and your parents?" Hunter dared to ask.

"Our parents, Molly's uncle and Master Ken survived. Molly's parents didn't." Katherine answered as he handed her a tissue.

"So why would Molly be working for Dao if he did all of that?" Shane asked.

"Because of the seal he put on her." Katherine answered. "I researched that seal and it erased parts of her memory. Judging by what we've gathered from you, she only remembers her powers, her fighting style, her name and age."

"So if the seal is removed, the Molly will remember everything." Dustin put together.

"That's how it should work." Peter confirmed.

"And no doubt that Dao has told Molly lies about her past to fill the gaps in case anyone got suspicious." Cam added, causing everyone to look at him. His eyes held determination.

"How would you know?" Katherine asked and quirked an eyebrow in question.

Cam flushed. "Because I've been hanging out with her for about two months."

"They were practically dating." Hunter mock-whispered at the twins, causing Katherine to giggle.

Cam glared until the alarm went off once more. Leaping up, everyone piled around the screen to see kelzaks, followed by Krow and finally…

"Molly? Is that her?" Her face was a bit dirty and the bags under her eyes were more pronounced, but it was her.

"Yeah, she's being controlled." Blake confirmed.

"Looks like through that headband. It has Dao's symbol right on it." Peter said. "We're coming with you, maybe she can remember us."

"Okay, then let's go!"


"Ah, I love the look of fear humans give us while we walk, don't you?" Krow asked Molly, who was starting to slow down, tiring out.

"Hold it right there!"

Krow looked and saw the power rangers plus two. "Ah rangers, come back for another beating?" He looked at the twins. "And you two must be Katherine and Peter. Say hello Molly."

Molly was silent, but kept her gaze fixated on the twins.

"No matter, Molly." He got her attention. "Attack the power rangers, they want to destroy Dao."

"Yes, Master Krow." Molly jumped at the others and attacked. Even though she looked dead on her feet, she kept fighting with the same strength.

When the twins were on either side of her, holding her arms to keep her from attacking so someone could grab the band on her forehead, Katherine spoke. "Molly! Don't you remember us? We grew up at Oshu Temple together!"


Molly sat in a small, dark room with her knees brought up her chest and her head down with her arms in a shield around her. The red seal that Dao placed on her arm coated the walls.

'Oshu…Temple?' Her head lifted to show her lifeless black eyes.

"Molly, you're favourite uncle is here!" A man's voice rang out.

"Uncle Tommy!" A small, child's voice called, followed by a giggle.

'Tommy…?'


Molly broke away from the rangers grasp before they could remove the headband and flipped back. Pressing the button on her morpher, she transformed once more and summoned the Yin Blade.

"She's not going to back down." Shane said. "Ready?"

"Ready!"

"Ninja storm, ranger form!"

"Thunder storm, ranger form!"

"Samurai storm, ranger form!"

"HA!"

Molly still attacked the newly morphed rangers and slashed them. Only the twins managed to escape and even hit her in the chest with the dragon fighting style. Unfortunately, while she was in her morphed form, she was still able to be the twins. After what felt like hours, the rangers ran out of energy and returned to their normal states.

"Jeez rangers," Krow stood beside Molly with a smirk as she transformed back, "Did you guys get soft or something? I thought have those two would help you. I guess I was wrong." He turned to Molly. "Molly, finish them. Start with the green one, I always hated that colour."

Molly started to walk towards Cam like a robot, with the Yin Blade in her left hand ready to give the final blow.


The dark room started to fuzz out, showing what was happening outside of Molly's mind. She saw herself start to walk towards Cam.

'Who is he…? Why have I seen him before?'

"I'm Molly St. Pierre."

"Cameron Watanabe, but my friends call me Cam"

'His name…is Cam.'

Memories flashed in front of her like a movie, showing the times they hung out, and when she kissed him.

'Cam…Cam…' Molly's eyes flashed back to their normal colour of metallic grey in sudden realization as she stood up, causing the seals around her start to crumble. 'CAM!' She closed her eyes again and focused, causing the second seal to crack harshly. 'NO!'


Molly held Cam up with her right arm and the Yin Blade with the left about to give the strike when she stopped. The blade was a few inches from his face, causing him to exhale.

"What?" Krow asked. "Molly, finish him! Attack! That is an order from your master!"

"You are not my master." Molly muttered, but it was loud enough to hear as the band on her forehead ripped and revealed the seal on her forehead. It glowed a strong white until it disappeared completely and her eyes returned to normal. Blinking, she looked around at the scene. "Cam…?"

Cam's face broke out into a smile and he hugged her. She hugged back and started to tear up a bit. Molly broke away and faced Krow with a glare on her face. "Tell Dao that I'm not his soldier anymore." The Yin Blade reappeared in her hand. With a flash of white light coming from her right hand, the seal on her arm lit up and broke in an instant.

Krow, realizing that he was outnumbered now that Molly was in control of herself and both seals were broken, scowled. "You might be free from us, Molly. But don't think that we're not going to stop our mission." With that, he disappeared in a blaze of black flames.

Molly inhaled and exhaled, soaking in the free feeling.

"Molly!" Everyone came running towards them; it was Katherine and Peter at the same time who called her name. Katherine and Peter were in front of them.

Molly's eyes lit up and a smile broke out on her face. "Katherine? Peter? Is that really you guys?" They could only nod as tears came to their eyes.

"We the dragons keep out scales shiny and proud." Katherine said.

"We are fluid and graceful, yet know no bound." Peter continued.

"We soar to heights higher than others fly." Molly said and tears fell silently from her eyes.

"We are the dragons, keepers of the sky." They all finished at the same time. Molly launched herself at both of them and hugged them.

"I thought I'd never see you guys again." She broke away.


"Are you sure that this is what you want?" Everyone stood outside of Ninja Ops; Molly, Katherine and Peter on one side and everyone else on the other. Sensei stood on Cam's shoulder. "We forgave you after what happened." Tori continued.

"I know that. And I do want to join you guys and take out Dao…" She trailed off for a moment. "But I have to go back to Oshu Temple. I have some things I have to do before I can join you guys. After what Katherine and Peter told me about everything that had happened after the attack, I have some things that I have to take care of. Besides," She inhaled, "I miss my parents. I need to talk to them, in spirit, anyway. And I think my uncle would like to hear from me."

"That is understandable, Molly." Sensei said.

"Watanabe-sensei, I would like to say how sorry I am once again for allowing you to be turned into a guinea pig. I will try to find a way to turn you back, I promise." Molly bowed at him.

"Thank you Molly." Sensei bowed back.

"Unfortunately, because Oshu is so far away, we'll have to leave now if we want to get there before nightfall." Peter interrupted, which resulted in an elbow in the ribs from his twin.

Molly nodded. "I'll be back, just not for a bit." She bowed to all of them. "Goodbye for now, my friends." Molly turned to leave, and Cam noticed a small white rabbit sticking out of her bag. The same one he got her from the fair.

"Molly, wait." Molly was only about four meters from them when she turned. Cam just looked at her and they started to run at each other, catching each other in their arms in a tight hug. Molly's arms went around his shoulders while his rested around her waist and back. The tears from both of them flowed lightly as they broke away. "I'm going to miss you." Cam whispered.

Molly smiled. "I will come back, don't forget that Cam." She reached up and kissed his cheek. "When I come back, I'll stay for good." She unfortunately broke away and started to walk towards Katherine and Peter, but not taking her eyes off of him.

Peter left first, jumping in a flash of gold. Katherine followed by a flash of silver. Molly smiled before jumping off in a flash of black and white, streaking across the area to meet up with her oldest friends as they headed home.

Cam could only smile as her words rang through his head.


Whoa! This is officially the longest chapter in the story! Molly's past is revealed! Everything is okay now! Except Dao and Krow… they're another story. P.S.: I will make a one-shot of someone's choice if they can guess who Molly's uncle is (He's actually her godfather but calls him 'Uncle' [ I call my godmother my aunt]). That is right! A free one-shot for the person that guesses him right.

Here's the hint: He is the reason why Molly's favourite colour is green...
