"Oh, you know me," says Dean keeping the gun pointed at Shapeshifter. "I knew something was wrong the minute you walked in here,"

"Somehow you got weak," says Shapeshifter glaring at Dean. "You need five people to even help you protect that colt,"

"You think I'm weak?" Dean said. "Why don't I shoot you right now?"

"Are you sure that's what your brother would want?" smirked the Shapeshifter as his hands were still held up. "To kill someone like me. A power ranger?" When the Shapeshifter spoke about his brother, he gripped the gun tightly.

"My brother died five years ago, how would you know?" Dean questioned as he glared at the creature.

"Are you sure your brother died?" says Shapeshifter. "Or did he by any chance survive and get sucked into the gate with everyone else?"

"Shut up!" says Dean as his hand started shaking. "You know nothing!"

"Do they know about your secret? Or have you kept it from them like you did everyone else?" he continued. "There's no way you can shoot me Dean Winchester," he kept going, taunting Dean and he was enjoying it. Dean hated being taunted, and he hated shapeshifters even if Lucifer upgraded them. "You've grown weak, without the rangers you would not succeed," Knowing very well that Dean could not shoot at Shapeshifter he lowered his gun just enough to give Shapeshifter the opening to attack. Suddenly Dean found himself fighting against the monster, it fought back hard blocking his every move until suddenly a shot was heard and the monster was hit in the leg. Mark had watched around the corner as Shapeshifter groaned and took off running, was Mark hearing, that right? Did Dean have a brother that he had not told the rest of them about.

"What happened?" asked Mark in shock as he helped Dean off the floor. "Why did Sean run?"

"That wasn't Sean, it was one of Lucifer's monsters," says Dean. "Sean is missing,"

"That's not possible, and what did he mean about your brother?" questioned Mark. "Do you have a brother?"

"It doesn't matter right now," spoke Dean. "You and the other rangers have to save Sean," The other rangers had gotten downstairs and heard everything. They looked at Dean with confusion as Dean looked back at them. "I will explain everything later, go save Sean now!" Without another word, the rangers morphed and went to search for Sean and the creature that had turned itself into one of the rangers. The blood had led them directly to an abandoned warehouse that was surrounded by dark angels. The rangers groaned as they started fighting against the dark angels. But there were so many of them, someone had to go save Sean before something happened.

"Mark," yells Sam. "Go! We can handle these weaklings,"

"Right," says Mark as he flipped over the dark angels and entered the warehouse. Keeping his guard up he started looking for the monster. Meanwhile, somewhere deep in the warehouse, Sean had figured out what to do and was starting to rub the rope against the metal which started to snap the rope. He had to be careful, however, because Azazel, Morgana and the shapeshifter was standing not too far from him. It still looked like him and he was disgusted, when it came back it had a slight wound on it's right ankle but that had since been healed. Sean kept rubbing the rope against the pipe until it finally snapped, and he broke free, removing the gag from his mouth he untied his ankles and got up.

"Wow you guys must be very dumb," says Sean taunting the three of them. "You three are horrible at keeping watch,"

"How did you?!"

"I'm smarter than the three of you combined," says Sean as he jumped into the air and grabbed his ring from Morgana's hand and landed on his feet, putting the ring back on he got into a fighting stance.

"You can take it from here Shapeshifter," says Morgana as her and Azazel retreated back into the depths of hell. Shapeshifter watched as his allies retreated and was now left with Sean. Still, however, they looked alike.

"You are going down Shapeshifter," says Sean. "You may look like me, but there's a lot you don't know,"

"Really? Because I look exactly like you," says Shapeshifter as he stood in front of Sean. "And I can read your mind," Immediately Shapeshifter started fighting with Sean. Sean fought as hard as he could knocking him down, but it was clear that they fought exactly the same way. Quickly thinking, Sean morphed into his ranger suit as Shapeshifter followed his lead. While the two fought against each other, Sean kicked Shapeshifter knocking him through boxes directly in front of Mark. Mark, in shock, stayed focused looking at the two green rangers before him.

"Mark," says Dean suddenly communicating with Mark. "I'm sending you and your friends some new weapons, they're lightning guns," he continued. "The two rangers before you, only one is the real Sean," he finished.

"Got it," says Mark. "Summon Lightning gun!" Holding his hand out, Mark's gun appeared in his hand it was a white gun with lightning bolts on the side, Mark pointed it at the two green rangers. "Freeze both of you!" yells Mark. Both green rangers froze in place as they looked at Mark.

"Mark," says Shapeshifter still sounding like Sean. "What are you doing?"

"Don't listen to him, he's not the real Sean, I'm the real Sean," says Sean. Mark was confused as he was unsure about which person was the real Sean. They both took a step forward, but Mark stayed in place.

"Don't move!" he exclaimed. "I don't know which of you is the real Sean, but I won't hesitate to shoot,"

"Mark," says Sean. "I know that you know who the real green ranger is, ask us a question only the real Sean would know,"

"Fine," says Mark. "who was Sean's inspiration?"

"My inspiration," says both the rangers. "Was you Mark," Seeing that the question didn't work a thought occurred to him as he came up with a new question.

"This should stump at least one of you," says Mark as Sean looked at Shapeshifter who had been reading his mind. Quickly he had thought about a fake meeting time. "How did we meet?"

"It was," says Shapeshifter who immediately caught Sean's idea. "At a video convention in California,"

"You texted me on twitter first, when you found my channel and asked to do a collab with me," knowing who the real Sean was he shot at Shapeshifter which caused him to lose his suit and fly back outside, he landed on the ground and transformed into a monster with hideous features.
