Power Rangers; Ninja Fury (Today in Class 5-2 Remastered) [On Hold]

Episode 7a: Victory or Defeat

Episode description: After Natsumi successfully blocks his soccer goal, Ryōuta begins to frantically challenge her to various athletic activities, betting all the boys' lunch desserts. After facing defeat at every turn, Ryōuta finally finds something he is better at -- embroidery.

'Enjoy.'

It was a warm day just like any other. Ryouta was back at it again with battling Hirikawa. This time he was on offense.

"Today, I'll win for sure." Ryouta said.

"Oh? I'll look forward to that." Hirikawa said.

"For this day, I had to endure hardships. I have a secret plan." Ryouta thought. "For the sake of those who've trained with me, too... I can't lose!"

Dillon and the other boys were watching from behind him. And the girls were watching from Hirikawa's side.

"Now, come!" Hirikawa said, taking her stance.

"My aim: The goal's corner." Ryouta thought. "But that's not it! Let's do this!"

"Alright, Ryouta. You got this!" Dillon said.

Sweat dropped from Ryouta as he made his move.

"The right, huh?" Hirikawa thought.

Ryouta kicked the ball as Hirikawa knew what to do.

"The opposite!" Hirikawa said, rushing to the ball.

She successfully blocked it. The boys were in shock.

"Oh, come on!" Dillon said.

The girls cheered for Hirikawa.

"Natsumi-chan, you're amazing!" Yuki said.

Hirikawa laughed scratching the back of her head.

"I-Impossible!" Ryouta said, falling to his knees. "My shot didn't make it?!"

"No way..." Tsubasa said.

"How could this happen? Our hope is..." Kouji said.

"Hang on, guys. She still has one more challenger." Dillon said, stepping up. "Ryouta, leave this to me."

"Okay." Ryouta said, standing to the side.

Dillon took out a soccer ball in ranger colors, as he put it on the ground.

"Hmm?" Hirikawa said, looking over to Dillon. "So, you want to challenge me too, huh? Very well."

Hirikawa took her stance, as Dillon was ready. He sat down on his knees and prayed.

"Dear Lord, in the name of my Ninja Master father, Joseph Dachisen. I pray you help me make this shot against Hirikawa Natsumi." Dillon prayed. "And wherever my father is, I hope he is smiling down on me. Amen."

Dillon stood back up as he was ready.

"Wait, did Dillon just pray?" Asahi said, confused.

"Yup." Kouji replied.

"Who did he just pray to?" Takumi asked.

"His dad, Joseph." Tsubasa replied. "Five years ago he disappeared in a battle."

"Ooooohhhh." The other boys said, in shock.

"Alright, let's do this." Dillon said, taking his stance.

Hirikawa was ready to block his shot. Dillon had a plan, so thought out, she wouldn't expect it. Sweat dropped from Dillon's face as he made his move.

"Here we go!" Dillon said, as he kicked the ball.
