**From NetNavi to Ninja: Lan Hikari's Transformation**

Question: Write a transformation story of Lan Hikari (from the Megaman Battle Network video game/anime series) turning into Hunter Bradley (in his Crimson Thunder Ranger suit) from Power Rangers Ninja Storm live-action television series, complete with age progression, height progression, clothes change (Lan's clothes instantly changing into Hunter Bradley's power ranger outfit), reality change (the world of Megaman Battle Network warping and turning into the world of Power Rangers Ninja Storm), and mind/mental change (with Lan Hikari's personality and memories being completely replaced with Hunter Bradley's personality and memories, despite his best efforts on fighting off the new memories/personality, making him completely forget he was a young boy named Lan Hikari and only remembered ever being the ninja and a power ranger, as well as being named Hunter Bradley). For Lan Hikari's appearance, he is an 11 year old boy who stands at 142.8 centimeters tall and has brown eyes and untidy brown hair, which he keeps out of his face with a bandana bearing the Hikari family mark. His upper-body attire consists of a white long-sleeved shirt with black squares on the elbows under an orange vest. From the waist down, he wears black shorts with yellow stripes on the sides, black ankle-socks, and orange shoes with black stripes. He carries detachable roller blades that allow him to instantly modify his shoes. He will often be seen with his backpack. He almost always carries his PET with him, and the later versions usually come with a pouch or a strap to carry it with. For Lan Hikari's personality, he is outgoing, headstrong, and has a strong sense of justice, though he is often lazy, often sleeping in causing him being late to prior engagements (even if he is the one who set them up), and is a poor student in school, much to Ms. Mari's frustration and despite MegaMan's nagging, though he has the highest grades in Virus Busting. Lan enjoys sports such as soccer and inline skating, which is shown in his preference to skate wherever he goes. He is shown to have a large appetite, often indulging when food is around. As an operator, Lan is able to concentrate in a way he cannot bring himself to do in other situations, and is quick to jump into action to save the day while others panic, even at his own risk. He has a keen sense of deduction, though he often has a simplistic way of looking at things. Despite his aptitude for Net Battling, Lan's ego and arrogance often lead to him making careless mistakes which sometimes put people he cares about in danger. His simple outlook on life also leads to several other problems, such as his emotional vulnerability, which has been exploited. Late in the third game, his vanity and then his trust are both abused in succession, and he is left believing that he is guilty for putting thousands of lives in danger, including his father's, causing him to fall into depression. When he finally arises, his worldview is tempered with a better understanding of evil. For Hunter Bradley's appearance (after Lan turned into him), he is a tall, athletic power ranger, standing at around 6 feet tall. He has short, blonde hair. He is of European in origins. In his power ranger outfit, he wears a pair of knee-high crimson boots with golden crops, and has golden circular armor on his knees. He also has a black jumpsuit with a golden belt around his waist to separate the crimson torso area and silver arms of the suit, with golden shoulder pads on his shoulders and the neck part of the jumpsuit being black like the legs and lower torso. In the middle of the jumpsuit's chest, it contains a strange symbol resembling a golden tree inside of a golden circle. He also wears a pair of crimson gloves with golden outlines on it. His helmet is crimson-colored and covers his entire outfit, with a black visor outlined by golden (which also has an ornament on top resembling a "stag beetle's horn"). For Hunter Bradley's personality, he is cool-headed, independent and dedicated. He is loyal to his team, especially his adopted brother Blake. Sometimes, Hunter can be a loner and prefers to work alone. Not a lot is known about Hunter and Blake Bradley's early years, except that they were both adopted at a young age by the Bradleys, a young couple who were also members of the Thunder Ninja Academy. It seems that both Bradleys shared a content childhood with their adoptive family, until they were later murdered by the fallen Wind Ninja, Lothor. Hunter and Blake unfortunately are unaware who is responsible for their deaths until years later. Following the death of their family, the boys continued to live at the Thunder Ninja Academy, now being raised by Sensei Omino. Years later, both the Thunder and Wind Academies are attacked by Lothor, and nearly the entire population of both schools are taken captive by the space pirate. Fortunately, before being captured, Sensei Omino selects the Bradley boys to take the Thunder Morphers (which were developed in a joint effort between the Thunder and Wind Academies). With their new powers, and unfortunately unaware of who was responsible for the attacks, Hunter and Blake manage to make their escape. Soon after, Lothor locates the Bradleys, and approaches them with the promise of avenging not only the capture of their school, but also the deaths of their parents. Lothor spins them a lie of how the Sensei of the Wind Academy Kanoi Watanabe, was responsible for their parent's murder. Since neither Blake nor Hunter know the truth, they agree to use their Ranger Powers and begin a full assault against the Wind Ninja Rangers and their Sensei. For a time, the two Rangers were forced to battle against each other, leading up Hunter and Blake infiltrating Ninja Ops, attacking Cameron Watanabe, and finally kidnapping Sensei Watanabe. However, before they able to kill the ninja master turned guinea pig, the ghosts of their parents appear to the Thunder Rangers revealing the truth of their deaths. The Wind Rangers, although reluctantly, ask the Thunder Rangers to join them in their battle against Lothor. Yet, Hunter and Blake instead chose to leave for a while so as to come to grips with the truth of their parent's deaths and also to come to terms with their own misjudgments. In hopes to make up for their past mistakes, the boys attempt to infiltrate Lothor's Ship. Unfortunately, while they are on the ship, Choobo captures and brainwashes them so that they become a threat to the Wind Ninjas once more. Choobo traps the Wind and Thunder Rangers on an island so that they can kill each other, but the Thunder Rangers regain their memories. As a last resort, Lothor uses a ray that causes Hunter to fly into a rage and attack everyone. Hunter accidentally takes a breath of mist that makes him even more confused and angry, but the Wind Ninjas and Blake later help him come back to his senses. Following this, the Wind Rangers again offer to join forces with the Thunder Rangers, who this time accept. Upon joining the Wind Rangers, Hunter and Blake get jobs with Dustin Brooks, at the local motocross shop, "Storm Chargers". Although the pair agree to work with the Wind Rangers, trust and teamwork does not come quickly for them. There was particular aggression between Hunter and Shane Clarke, who battle for seniority and leadership, due to both being technically 'Red' Rangers. After a battle with another of Lothor's monster, although they maintain a friendly sort of rivalry, pair of them developed a sense of respect and trust for each other and Hunter accepted his position as Shane's second-in-command. The Wind and Thunder Rangers continue to fight against Lothor and his minions for several months, and soon they were joined by Cam, who took on the powers of the Green Samurai Ranger. Their adventure soon built up to final battle against Lothor who managed to strip of them their powers using the Abyss of Evil. Fortunately, the Wind Ninjas managed to use their elemental powers to overpower Lothor, leading to their foe being banished into the same Abyss that took their own powers. Now without their Ranger Powers, the six former Power Rangers become official graduates of the Wind Academy. Shane, Tori and Dustin became teachers at the rebuilt Wind Ninja Academy under the command of head teacher Cam and his father, the newly re-human Sensei Watanabe. Hunter reveals that Sensei Omino is officially retiring and has asked Hunter to be the new head teacher at the Thunder Ninja Academy while his brother Blake continued his racing career. There should also be quotes from the characters in this story so we know what they're saying and what they're thinking.
