"That's right hot shot," says Dean. "A bunker, it's not that far from this place, let's go," without another word, all the rangers made their way to the bunker. Once they arrived it wasn't long until Artemis decided to make an appearance practically appearing in front of Dean as they were standing in the living room.

"Hello Artemis," said Dean deadpan. "Wasn't expecting you to be a mentor to the power rangers,"

"The same goes for you Winchester, I figured that going after women was more your speed." She said crossing her arms.

"For your information I decided not to go after women anymore, my main priority is protecting the colt now that's why I chose my rangers to help me," said Dean as he glared at the goddess with slight hatred.

"That's Lady Artemis to you mortal! What evil have you brought upon the earth this time? A Phantom?!" She yelled and all of the rangers looked at each other in confusion as they witnessed the two mentors practically bite each other's heads off.

"Oh really? Just because it's me you assume I did something to cause this," yells Dean his voice raising. "Where were you when the gates of hell were opened, originally princess? Were you still mourning the loss of your daddy?" In rage Artemis used her powers to send the man flying across the room.

"You will pay dearly for your insults Winchester!" When Artemis sent Dean flying he had hit the wall of the bunker the rangers backed away very carefully, however, Sammy and Colby stepped in trying to block a fight from happening between the two. Sammy could tell that Dean wanted to kill Artemis very badly.

"Guys," says Sammy. "Can you two focus?! We've got a common enemy on our hands!"

"I'm sorry," says Tara. "Do you two know each other?"

"You could say that" Artemis growled.

"If you're done throwing me against the wall airhead, we can get down to business," responds Dean giving Artemis a side long glare.

"Alright you two enough, this bickering will solve nothing," Kristina said, stepping in between both of them. While she admired both of them, arguing with each other would only cause more problems.

"Yeah," says Sam. "We have a common enemy that we need to defeat," he continued as he turned to the Nature force rangers and Artemis. "We're dealing with Lucifer and his dark angels right now and with him working together with Chrysalis, we have to be on guard," While the rangers talked with each other, Yan took this as an opportunity to sneak away unnoticed or so he thought. As Sean was trying to listen out of the corner of his eye he noticed Yan sneaking out of the bunker at the Same time Shela noticed as well. Walking over to Mark, Sean tried to get his attention, but it was clear that he was engaged in a conversation with Johnny. Sean then snuck away from his teammates and followed Yan. At the same time Shela also began following her teammate as her empathic abilities were picking up a lot of negative energy. Yan walked into a forest and didn't even flinch when he felt a claw touch his back.

"My queen," Yan said, turning around to see Chrysalis standing behind him along with Lucifer, Azazel, Morgana, Raymond and Sombra.

"Green ranger I trust that you have valuable information for me?" She asked, giving him a smirk.

"The Lighting Strike rangers came to rescue; they're planning to join forces with Artemis to make sure your plan does not succeed." Yan explained and meanwhile Sean and Shela watched from their hiding spot completely horrified and shocked that Yan was betraying them.

"Well then we will have to do all we can to make sure that they don't succeed." Sombra grunted as he still didn't like the fact that Azazel of all people was here and that his queen made a deal with Lucifer.

"Indeed, if we're to succeed in opening the gates of hell again then we will need to remove the pests that stand in the way." Lucifer said, revealing his plan as he figured that with Chrysalis's help he would be able to take over the world. Meanwhile Chrysalis would be able to use the Nature Force crystals to destroy the Lighting Strike rangers and she could do whatever she wanted with the wildlife and mortals once he had the colt.

"I am impressed with your spying skills Yan; you have proven to be very useful." Morgana told him.

"That may be true, but it seems that Shela and Sean suspect something," Yan said looking directly at the hiding spot completely aware that he had been followed.

"How do you know that?" Prince Raymond asked wanting to know,

"Because they're both here," Yan said as Lucifer snapped his fingers and the Dark angels appeared behind Shela and Sean unexpectedly, grabbing them by the arm and pulling them from behind the bush, Sean tried to fight back but he was unprepared as the dark angels brought Sean and Shela over to the enemy.

"Yan what are you doing? Chrysalis is our enemy, not us!" Shela yelled as she was dragged away by Dark angels.

"Don't take it personally Shela I just don't work for hypocrites." He declared taking her crystal bracelet and Sean's ring.

"So, this is how you treat people? You betray them and your friends?" says Sean as Yan had taken off Sean's ring.

"Betray? No, the only betrayal happening is with the teammates I thought were my friends." Yan declared.

"Then you're weak, you listen to what others say before you even think for yourself," glared Sean.

"Enough chatter take them away," Lucifer commanded and the dark angels dragged Shela and Sean to the dungeons. Meanwhile back at the bunker, the rangers and their mentors had finished discussing when they noticed that three of the rangers had been missing. Mark started to become concerned as he walked over to Dean who was talking to Artemis about a plan.

"Has anyone seen Sean?" asked Mark. Dean looked at Mark as realization dawned on him.

"I thought he was here," says Dean. Kristina also took notice of her sister's absence and in a rush of panic she ran up to Sammy and asked, "Have you seen my sister!?" Sammy tilted his head toward Dean with pleading eyes.

"Dean, a little help," now on high alert, Dean quickly stepped around the island table and walked over to Colby who was sitting at the computer on his phone.

"Colby," says Dean with a worried expression. "Pinpoint Sean's exact location quickly!"

"You got it Dean," says Colby as his fingers flew to the keys and started to pinpoint Sean's ring until he stumbled across the location. "They're in the forest,"

"We should split up into groups so we can find them." Kyra suggested.

"Agreed, we won't stop until we find them," says Dean as they split up Dean went with Sammy and Artemis while the others went together.

"This is all your fault Winchester; you took the rangers from right under my nose and now two of mine are missing!" She yelled.

"You always blame me for everything, don't you miss moon goddess! Your rangers aren't the only ones in jeopardy here!" exclaims Dean. "One of mine is missing too!" Sammy groaned as he was listening to the two arguing.

"How dare you!" Artemis exclaimed her eyes flashing white.

"Well if you had kept your temper we wouldn't be in this situation in the first place," says Dean.

"Chrysalis was evil long before I cursed her, all I did was punish her for her actions!" Artemis yelled back.

"Like I said, you need to learn how to control your...." before Dean could finish what he had to say, his brother groaned.

"Both of you shut up!" yells Sammy. "If we weren't on a mission here I would lock the both of you up in the vault back in the bunker to air out your differences!" he continued. "You two are mentors, act like it!"

"Fine, but she started it," Dean said.

"I don't care who started it! Stop acting like little children!" finished Sammy.
