Abby had figured what she wanted to say but wasn't sure if should or if it was better to let the other figure it out themselves or leave it to Takashi. As their master it was more likely her two team mates would listen to him but at the same time she had to get better at being decisive and she felt they needed to hear this. Hoping she wasn't gonna make things worse she turned to face to Shotaro
"While you rag on Cory for not being from a real ninja clan or not being serious about the whole thing you seem to ignore that I told you my family isn't a clan at all or the fact I was considering dropping out of the team. In fact as I far as I know only one member of the Gonokami family was a Ranger. Also when Cory basically repeated the same thing I said before our transformation into Mechs you didn't even seem to notice I wasn't upset enough to say anything."
Next up was the Blue Ranger. "Honestly I know you mean well but the way you bring things up seems more rude than anything while not accepting your own faults. If we attacked the monster at the at the same time Shotaro's plan could have worked but you went off too soon while I was too late. You immediately considered the plan itself to be what failed instead of the execution."

Cory Hunter
Cory took time to listen to both, Abby had taken a lot of responsibility for herself. Where as Shotaru and Cory were not. He sighed a bit before speaking up.
"Listen... we all want the same thing... Zonbu and the Nara to be destroyed... we don't have to be friends... but we need to be a team... his defense is too strong... he isn't like Grazer... that attack should have worked but he's got some trick up his sleeve... even though we were off... he blocked our attacks with no effort whatsoever. Like he didn't even have to look at us..."

Shotaro let Abby and Cory's words sink in he knew all about being pressured by family and hadn't stopped to consider what it must've been like for Cory to be chosen to be the next Ranger after so many generations of skipping over his family he wondered if Cory was even mentally prepared for being a Ranger after all Shotaro had been training since an early age just like Cory and he still felt like he was in over his head at times he was pretty sure Cory must've felt the same even if he was too proud to admit it
Shotaro contemplated all this and spoke again "We all have our own reasons for fighting to prove ourselves to our family or wanting to fight for our own sake or in my case vengeance but they're all understandable reasons I don't know if if we will be able to win but win or lose I want to do it beside you both it's said that the red ninja star goes to the warrior who has the strongest will I don't know if I have that will yet but I think with your cunning and your strength I can find it Shotaro held his hand out to Cory and Abby "Will you fight with me?" Shotaro asked his teammates

Abby was glad that that Cory and Shotaro were at least able to agree on working together, even if they didn't seem to be likely to actually befriend each other any time soon. When Shotaro asked if they were still in she had only one response. "Not gonna lie I still wish I didn't have too, but I said I'm in and that hasn't changed. We need a new plan though but I do have something in mind if you're willing to listen." Abby wasn't too sure about her idea but if she wanted to get over what Takashi said her biggest issue was she had too start somewhere.

"Please explain there are no stupid ideas when it comes to saving the city at this point maybe what we need is a new perspective" Shotaro said to Abby waiting to hear her plan

Abby nodded at Shotaro's encouragement."It's a modification of your plan that depends on the monster believing Cory would abandon us after the argument you two had. Simply put he sneaks up behind the monster without being seen, the two of us attack from the front from different angles and at the same time he hits the monster from behind."

Cory Hunter
Cory listened to Abby's plan and it made sense. The formation was probably their best bet at this point. Suddenly Isaiah piped up.
"Guys I figured it out... check it."
He motioned for the Rangers to head over as he pointed to the screen. "His barriers... they're activated by the shield he holds. Each time it seems he presses some button and generates the barrier. Knock his shield out of his hands and he'll be vulnerable."
Cory looked to the others. "Then Abby is right... if I can get behind him I can knock that shield out... and you two put the pressure on him with your attacks... we might be able to put him away for good."

Shotaro thought about the plan Abby suggested and heard Isaiah mentioned the fact that the monster's barriers were generated by his shield and Cory had suggested sneaking up behind the monster to grab the shield Shotaro gave it a quick thought and then an idea came to him "What if we get Abby to grab the shield? She has the wind element so she's the fastest of the three of us and you and I can use our fire and water elements to create a steam cover for her if the monster can't see her that will make it easier for her to grab the shield what do you think?" Shotaro asked his teammates

Cory HunterCory gave a look to Abby. "Let her decide... she had the idea. And quite frankly her comfortability is what will matter." He gave a nod to Abby feeling confident with the plan either way. Takashi unknown to the others listed behind his closed door, stroking his beard with a smile hearing the team work together. ----- Meanwhile Baku and Gozu appeared once again in the City as Baku put a hand on the monsters shoulder. "Listen... now that we have the Rangers cowering in their boots I need you to destroy this city. Let nothing stop you and I assure you there will be a place for you among Zonbu's ranks!"Gozu gave a nod as he made his way into the city with a cackle. "Time to wreck havoc!"

Shotara had a point with his suggestion but Abby also felt that Cory "being absent" would be the most believable. She spent quite some time thinking it over, even mentally going through her move list to see if she had anything that could help. What Shotaro said about her being the fastest stuck with her though and eventually she started wondering if she could boost her speed by removing the air friction in front of her while letting some gust of wind push her. "I..I can try."

Cory Hunter
"Just in time guys! Gozu is attacking the city again!" Isaiah said wide eyed as destruction was ensuing again.
Cory gave a knowing nod to Abby and Shotaru. "Alright... Sho and I will confront him and hold him off while you snea behind. You'll have to teleport to a different location for this this work... stay focused and even if it looks like Sho and I are struggling stay true to the plan... Cunning one." He said with a smirk before pulling out a teleportation scroll. "Let's go... fearless leader." Sarcasm still in his voice but Cory still spoke with confidence this time towards the Red Ranger.

This Shotaro smiled at Cory's sarcasm "Right behind you oh mighty warrior" Shotaro said jumping through the teleportation portal created by the scroll as Shotaro and Cory appeared in downtown Angel Grove where the monster was wreaking havoc Shotaro yelled at it to get its attention
"Hey ugly you ready for round two!?" Shotaro yelled at the monster he then turned to Cory "let's make our families proud" it's morphing Time!" Shotaro yelled as his shinobi striker Morpher transformed from its bracelet form into its Morpher form "Ninja Art: Transform!" the shinobi striker Morpher calls out as Shotaro threw his Shinobi Star and a red portal opens. Shotaro leapt through coming out of the other side in a red suit. A helmet forms around his head as the Shuriken Visor spins and locks in place.
"Blazing flame shinobi red!"

Wanting to be sure she didn't reveal herself away Abby morphed before leaving. "Rising Current, White Shinobi Ranger!" As soon as she was morphed the took out her own teleportation scroll and jump in. she emerged about two streets away from the others and decided to see if her new move was even possible. She took an unused scroll and attached it to her Striker Blade.
As she sent her chakra into it Abby focused on what she wanted to do, so far she had only manipulated air in one direction so to speak. This time was different though as she tried to do two things at once. It took a lot of effort but eventually she managed to create a vacuum in front of her and a gust of wind behind, pushing her forward much faster than she could on her own, it seemed she could use to move in straight line though. Content her new move was possible but not easy she headed in the direction of her teammates.

Cory Hunter
Cory and Shotaru arrived on the scene and he gave a nod before activating his Strike Morpher.
"It's Morphin time!"
Ninja Art: Transform!" the shinobi striker Morpher calls out as Cory threw his Shinobi Star and a blue portal opens. Cory leapt through coming out of the other side in a blue suit. A helmet forms around his head as the Shuriken Visor spins and locks in place.
"Unforgiving Wave Blue Shinobi Ranger!
Cory aimed his blaster at Gozu gaining his attention as he and the Red Ranger waited for their White Ranger to come onto the scene. Once again a barrier blocked the shots. "Only Two of you?! I must have done more damage than I thought to the other!
As Abby made her way she would notice a few Narabots targeting civilians.

You want to see damage!? I'll show you damage ugly Hikari light ninja art 1000 knives!" Shotaro weaved the necessary hand signs and a thousand shards of light formed behind him before flying at the monster he knew it wouldn't do any damage but he had to keep up the charade so Abby could get in place and steal the shield
