As Shane's friends plot to get him back on stage......

"Hey, Shane, did you see this?" Tori was pointing to the flier on top of the pizza box.

He nodded noncommittally, acting like it was no big deal.

"Dude, you should totally do this," Dustin said, reading the flier for himself.

He shrugged. "I don't know. It didn't work out so well last time, you know?"

"That was last time," Tori argued. "Not this time. Are you going to let that stop you from singing forever? It didn't stop Dustin or me."

....Shane's dreams become haunted by visions of Skyla

A flash in front of him made him turn away, shielding his eyes with his arms. He waited for his vision to clear before looking to see what had happened. And there, before him, was a floating light sphere. The brilliant glow never faded as it drew closer to him, swirling around him, almost happily, before going back to float in front of him. There she floated for a few moments before moving away. It took all his will to make himself speak before she was gone.

"Wait," he forced out, hoping it would stop her from leaving him, "Don't go."

She stopped before moving back to him, and there she stayed, floating unmoved, bathing him in her light. He didn't move, didn't breathe, afraid that she would disappear as easily as she had appeared. He didn't know if it was that he didn't want to move or if he couldn't move. All he knew was that he didn't want her to leave him. Again.

All this and more, NEXT WEEK on Power Rangers Ninja Storm!!
