Ninja Storm: Ranger Form: Fire Storm

Part 12- Cyber Cam and a story

The morning had started out blissfully, Shane, Tori and Dustin were at the beach with Cam; training with the new Green ranger. Whilst Blake
and Hunter were out looking for Alex; the Purple ranger had disappeared from Ninja Ops early that morning. Due to her injured leg the whole team had spent the night at the Ranger HQ as not to move her and cause her wound to re­open, what they didn't expect was for the Purple ranger to be able to walk, but everyone knew how stubborn she was and would put herself through any kind of pain, especially when
she was in denial. Yesterday, she had found about her cousin, and to make it even worse she was the niece of Lothor, via marriage of her aunt to her uncle. But she knew she couldn't just back down after all it wasn't in her nature to do that. She knew she was going to have to find her cousin and bring her back for her own safety. God Angelina was adopted but Alex nor Aria knew who had adopted her and it was going to be hard to bring her to the academy and know if she needed to start from scratch in her ninja training. 
"Im worried about Alex," Tori said, after the training exercise had finished; she turned to the three boys who were with her Dustin nodded "Yeah, she didn't seem at all happy yesterday."
"Would you?" Cam asked "she just found out she that Lothor has a daughter, and she is our cousin. On top of that she was charged with finding Angelina." 

The Yellow ranger frowned "But your Lothor's nephew," he pointed out, and then looked to Aria.

"Yeah and I am his niece." Aria said thinking about it, and then looking at the idea of being the cousin to Lothor's actual daughter Angelina.
"This is different," Shane stated "Its one thing to be a nephew and Niece. But being asked to look for her cousin who is Lothor's biological daughter that is another thing."
Dustin nodded "Good point,"
"Give her time," Cam interrupted them "She'll come to terms with it sooner or later, but Alex was one of the best tracker Ninja that we have right now, actually she is the best that we have ever seen in the wind and fire academies. She has always been good at hunting people down. Suddenly their morphers beeped, and Shane answered the call. It was Sensei, "Shane could you please ask Cam to return to Ninja Ops. Im having trouble with the mainframe."
"Uh ­oh." Tori frowned.
"I must have pressed the button I wasn't supposed too." Cam sighed, but knew it was for the best.

"I'll be right there dad," he answered, the connection was lost.
"That doesn't sound good," Tori said, turning to the Green ranger. Cam shook his head.

"I told him to stay away from the super computer." he told them looking out at Aria and Shane facing one another.

"I'll be back as soon as I can." and he ninja streaked away, he was getting better at it each time too. The Wind Rangers watched them go.

"I'm worried about Cam too," Tori added, her mind shifting between Alex and Cam, "He runs the entire Ninja Ops, and now he's a ranger..."
"Yeah," Shane agreed.

"He never gets any down time."
"Dude's gonna seriously burn out!" Dustin inputted, Aria was going to kick some butt and Cam knew as she was going to work hard.

Alex breathing was heavy but still she ran at top speed through the woods of Blue Bay Harbour, she was miles away from the Wind Ninja Academy and more on the south side of the woods than she was the North; she had been running for little over two hours now, and was unaware that she was being followed. Aria had joined her, and Alex had come out here to clear her head. Aria's leg had healed just about; thanks to their Aunt Jade who had used some of her spirit powers to heal the wound, and that had allowed her to take off from Ninja Ops while the others were still asleep; she had used the lake as her escape and then taken off further into the trees. She didn't want to return to Storm Charges until she was sure that she understood everything that happened yesterday. Ducking under a branch, Alex soon slowed to a halt just short of a familiar lake. She remembered the last time she had come here was when her academy had been attacked and her Sensei and friends had been kidnapped. A small frown crossed her pretty little face before she stepped out onto the water and walked to the center of the lake. She stopped and looked down as the water rose up over her and swallowed her like a cocoon. As she disappeared beneath the water the tower that had consumed her caved and splashed back into the lake as ripples flowed towards the shore. Behind the trees, on the shore, appeared Hunter and Blake as they exchanged glances.
"What was that?" The tall blonde asked as Blake shrugged.
