Ninja Storm: Their Darkest Hour

5. Ranger Strangers part III

Im so gonna kill them for this! Abby thought darkly as she ran through the forest; away from Ninja Ops. She had slipped out without the Wind rangers noticing she had gone, and was now trying to track the Thunders on her own. They had used her friends, Blake had used Tori! Pretended he liked her just so he could find Ninja Ops! Her blood boiled as the image of Tori's face floated into her eye Watch you're back, Blake! Because when I find ya, it aint gonna be pretty!

Fed up of running aimlessly around, the Snow rangers bounced one and Ninja-streaked through the trees, over fallen branches. With one final bounce she landed in a tree as she glanced around, okay not what I was aiming for, but it will do  she thought looking down at the ground, just as a familiar voice reached her senses.

"How much further?"

Looking down Abby's eyes narrowed as she spotted Hunter and Blake walking right under the tree in which she was now standing, it had been Blake who spoken and she sounded rather nervous. She smirked, he should be, he had no clue what was waiting for him and only he were to look up now it would be perfect opportunity for her to jump out and hit him! In Hunter's hands as a glowing sphere and she guessed that's where Cam's father was although she didn't understand how a grown man could fit into such a tiny sphere.

"We're almost there," Hunter replied, he clearly wasn't enjoying this either but was keeping it hidden from his brother, Blake breathed in a sigh of relief, before tensing.

Abby froze in her tree as an eerie sound was heard in the air "Did you hear that?" Blake asked from below her, 

"Yeah," Hunter muttered, holding the ball tightly in his hand. Suddenly they were surrounded by a group of dead Ninja ghouls.

"Oh my..." Abby started to before a scream escaped her lips as she fell from the tree and landed with a thump in front of the Thunder brothers

Hunter and Blake glared at her "What do we have here?" Hunter asked, as he reached down and grasped her wrist pulling her up to her feet "A sneak, maybe!"

"Let go off me!" Abby retaliated, kicking out. Hunter let go of her wrist and stumbled backwards, but the ghouls took this as their cue and jumped forward, two or three of them surrounded Abby as the rest run at the brothers, the Snow ranger squeaked as she realized her plan had failed miserably and she was fighting off a bunch of ghouls and not beating Hunter and Blake to a pulp for using her friends.

As Abby fought, Blake and Hunter exchanged looks "Thunder Storm! Ranger Form!" they yelled, as their Crimson and Navy suits appeared on their bodies. Hunter then grabbed Sensei and launched into another attack. A ghoul kicked him in the stomach and sent him stumbling backwards at the same time Abby was thrown away from the ghouls she was fighting. The two slammed onto one another and glanced over their shoulders at one another.

"Give me that!" Abby snapped, taking the sphere from the Crimson ranger and bolted for the trees.

Hunter growled "Oh no you don't!" he shouted, giving chase, he tackled her mid-way through the trees and the two rolled for a while. When they stopped Hunter was straddling her as he ripped the ball from her hands "pest!"

"Loser!" the White ranger argued, as she kicked up and the head Thunder ranger rolled over her head first.

Abby ducked, snagged the sphere as he rolled and jumped to her feet, laughing "Nice doing business with ya," she grinned taking off once more, but was stopping as the ghouls blocked her path "This is not working!" she exclaimed, ducking a high kick from Blake and flipping backwards as Hunter tried for a sweep; her grip firmly kept on the sphere. Just as Abby landed on her feet after flipping backwards, a series of lasers hit the ground in front of the ghouls and they backed away as the Wind Rangers rode in their bikes "You made it!" Abby cheered
