"Adam is a chicken," Bulk taunted as he punched Adam across the face. Adam had hidden in the corner to get away.

"Ha, ha, ha" mocked many of the other boys in the locker room. As one of them jerked him up and called out, "I've got him, everyone come and take a punch."

The entire class got into a line and all took one or two swings at him. To his embarrassment he started to get tears in his eyes, as the bell rang everyone else left the locker and Adam was left there to cry. After everyone was gone he wiped his tears and went to class.

The next day in school the Boys did the exact same thing. Adam once again had to go through the humiliation of crying in front of his peers. But this day was different; there was a new kid at school that day. He got up and said, "Leave him alone." And when everyone else walked out and the bell rang he added, "Hay, I'm Rocky. Are you okay?"

"Yeah" Adam replied rather over-whelmed at the incident.

"Stop it now," said a voice that Adam could recognize. It brought him back into the present and he looked out to see what the commotion was about. It was Maria, the girl he liked but had never been able to talk to.

Bulk and Skull were bugging her and he wished that he had the guts to go up and stop them. Bulk and Skull had always been two of the biggest bullies he knew. He wanted so bad to give them what he had received from them as a child but, he knew his powers as a ranger could not be used that way.

Being that Adam had spent a while in the park he was getting thirsty and so he decided to go to the Youth Center for a drink and hopefully he could catch Rocky and talk to him. Rocky was always to busy for him now and never really got to talk much so it hurt Adam to not get to speak to his best friend.

When he arrived he saw that Rocky was giving karate lessons. "Oh well" he blew it off in his mind, "Maybe another time."

When he went to see the other rangers Tommy and Kim were talking and Billy and Aisha were talking. They were not giving him much attention anymore because they were to busy with their relationships. So Adam just ordered a drink of Sprite. He kind of over-looked the idea that they might be involved in their relationships, as he saw it he was no longer liked by his fellow rangers. Depression had begun to set in him, and he didn't know where it came from. All his bad memories were coming to him and he just couldn't shake them off.

So he decided to let them stay there and engage in conversation and he would return to his home, and that is what he did. When he set of for home his depression really set in.

"Oh Finster," Rita complained, "I am sick of those rangers, getting in my way. I have just found out that they are braking into our system and listening to our plans when we communicate them to the monster. We need a way to stop this."

"Well my queen," he suggested, "I could make a language that only we will be able to speak."

"That is a magnificent idea." Rita replied smiling then she left Finster's Chamber saying, "I will give you one year to get it done."

"Yes my queen," was all Rita heard him say as she slammed the door to go and tell Zedd her new plan.

"Well honey poo," she stated very seductively, "I know how to stop the rangers from listening to our messages."

"How," Zedd questioned in disbelief that Rita actually had a good idea.

"We are going to have Finster invent a language for us." She told Zedd.

"Well, I guess that will work," was all Zedd replied.

"I am going to go and visit my father for a week." Rita said, "I will be gone so be sure to keep the house clean or I will not be happy when I get back." She then patted him on the cheek and walked out.

After she had gone out said replied, "Hooray, she will be gone for a week. I still wonder what possessed me to marry her."

Adam had not been reduced to tears since he was in middle schools but he was on that verge on his way home. He had his head down and didn't realize were he was going as he bumped into Skull.

"Watch where you're going," said Skull, "You are so stupid."

Adam was then pulled down to his last breathe. He ran home so that he could hide himself from the world and the shame of crying would not haunt him that way. He began to wish he was dead. He hadn't thought about food all day, and was too depressed to get out of his chair and make himself some food.

Just as he began to think a baseball went through the window, the neighbor children had been playing baseball. He told them that it would be alright and they didn't need to worry about paying for it, then he started to pick up the mess.

"Tommy, Billy did you guys see Adam today?" asked Rocky, "He really looked sad today. Do you know what is wrong?"

"No I haven't seen him," Billy and Tommy said simultaneously.

"Oh okay," Rocky replied really worried, he had noticed that Jason was being really quite and loosing a lot of weight, "I will go and check on him at his house."

Just as Adam got done picking up the glass Rocky knocked on his door. Adam got up and answered the door.

"Hay, Adam." Rocky said, "I noticed you at the Youth Center you didn't look very happy. What was wrong?"

Adam told Rocky about how he was filling down that day and how he felt that the rest of the rangers were not giving him attention. And how he felt that all of the rangers no longer saw him as important.

When Adam was done Rocky said, "Sorry man. I have been busy, and I didn't realize that you were feeling so bad. The rest of the rangers don't hate you either, they too are busy."

With Rocky's explanation Adam felt so much better. Rocky then went home and Adam went to sleep.
