A/N:

Disclaimer: Power Rangers Samurai does not belong to me, I'm just using the characters to make my own story.

Also, I hope y'all enjoy this, it was a lot of fun to write.

It all happened so quickly, nobody knew what had happened until Mike was on the ground clutching his head in pain. Kevin had tried to get his attention, but his attempt had failed, and Mike had gotten hit because of his inability to save him.

After a few seconds, Mike stood up, not acting like himself, unlike his usual tendency to bounce around, he looked like a statue.

"I've got a new pet, I'll call him Green!" cried the nighlok, "Sick'em Green!"

Before the rest of the team knew it, Mike was on them, like a rabid animal trying to kill its prey. Mike slashed at Kevin who had tried to get him to listen to reason, but he only got cut down in the process. Next was Mia, she didn't want to hurt Mike, but she tried anyway, also getting cut across the chest. Then Emily tried, but Mike hesitated for a minute, causing Emily to actually hit Mike.

"Oh no! Mike I'm so sorry!" cried Emily. Mike just stood back up, like the pain hadn't even affected him, that was when Jayden sprinted past him toward the nighlok, crying out, "Let him go!"

"But that wouldn't be as fun!" yelled Madimot.

Jayden attacked Madimot, and was actually able to get a few hits in, but just as he was about to finish him, Madimot disappeared, saying, "I'm dried out, see ya later fools!"

Jayden turned to face Mike, as all the others had, they had him surrounded, closing in very slowly. Mike wasn't reacting, so they took their opportunity to at least demorph him to make him less of a threat. No matter how much it pained them to do so. Jayden carefully sauntered forward, white symbol disk in hand, before saying, " I know he's your friend, but I need you guys to hit him with your power-ups, and one won't be enough. I don't like it any more than you do, but it has to be done if we want him back."

All three had pulled out their power disks, though very slowly, not wanting to hurt their friend. They all, reluctantly, mind you, unleashed their powers, all hitting Mike, who fell to the ground, demorphed, but not crying out in pain, which had to be from the mind control they figured. Kevin, Mia, and Emily all hung their head in shame, they felt awful for laying a scratch on their fellow team member. That's when Jayden walked up to him, sword in hand, and slashed Mike across the chest, where a few bolts of electricity and a blue aura escaped from Mike. Mike fell to the ground writhing around in pain, the last thing he remembered before passing out was Jayden telling the others to lift him.

When Mike first came to, it was all a little hazy, he felt like he was underwater, he could hear voices but couldn't make out what they were saying, like they were muffled. That was until he receded back into his unconscious.

The second time, he actually felt the pain, his chest and most of his extremities hurt, a lot. He tried to open his eyes but they were too heavy, he then tried to move, but only managed to moan in pain as he tried it, which caught someone's attention. The next thing he knew, a hand was on his arm, with a voice saying, "C'mon Mike, just open your eyes."

He couldn't make out who it was , but he willed his eyes to open. It took a moment to focus, but when he did, he saw Jayden, and he tried to say hey, but all that came out was a low moan. He then realized that his arm was in a sling and that his chest was wrapped tightly, too tightly in his opinion, and he had an IV drip in his arm.

"Wha….hapnd..?" was the only thing he was able to muster.

"Madimot got some kind of mind control over you, and you attacked us, but we were able to free you, although in the hardest way possible. I needed you unmorphed, so the others had to use their powers against you. They have been distraught ever since, they still haven't come to grips with what happened, and neither have I if I'm being honest." Jayden said sadly.

"It's okaaayyy…" slurred Mike. "How long was I out?" he continued.

"Three days, and we beat the nighlok, and got the Tiger Zord back, in case you were curious." Jayden continued.

The questions Mike had next were interrupted by the others walking into the room, with their heads hanging low. They looked like they had kicked a puppy. They looked up towards Mike, seeming relieved that he was finally awake.

"How are you feeling Mike, do you need anything? Food? Water?" asked Mia.

"No, I'm not all that hungry, but thanks for the thought." Mike replies, smiling.

"Mike, aren't you angry at us? Don't you hate us for hurting you like this?" Kevin pleaded.

"Not really, if it were you, I would hope you wouldn't blame us either, so I don't blame you. I would have felt even worse had I hurt any of you, and I'm very glad I didn't." Mike explained, content with what happened.

They continued to feel better as Mike continued to explain why he wasn't angry and what he remembered from the fight. It all felt like everything was going back to normal.

That was, until Mike tried to sit up, and gasped in pain. This gained everyone's attention, and they were on him, asking what hurt and what they could do to help.

"What hurts? Ji! We need some help in here!" cried the rangers.

"Guys, calm down….I'm… alriiighht…" Mike said tiredly, yawning in between words.

The next thing he knew, Ji was next to him, checking his arm and the bandages across his chest.

"He blew a few stitches trying to sit up, I'll need to redo them and change his bandages. But that mean you guys are going to have to leave the room." Ji stated, matter-of-factly.

They all stepped out of the room, albeit begrudgingly. As soon as the door was shut, Ji got to work cleaning the blood that had started to drip down Mike's chest. He grabbed anti-septic, and a clean towel, and wiped it away. He then grabbed the needle and the thread to restitch his chest. Mike had only popped three of his stitches, so it only took him about five minutes to redo. Mike moaned, not expecting a few stitches to be this painful. The last thing he remembered was the sounds of the others rushing into the room.
