A/N: As promised, this is the continuation of RPM: Rebuilding a Broken World by Knightwood. I would recommend reading that first for background information. Any and all comments are welcome.

Scott guided the jet down easily onto the roof of Central Corinth Hospital. Flynn practically leapt out of the vehicle as emergency staff came to it.

"Where is she?" He roared at the paramedic that approached him. The man just pointed to the door, terrified by the frantic Blue Ranger. Flynn charged off, leaving him in his wake.

"It's his first time." Ziggy explained sagely like he was an old pro as the rest of them made their way inside. The paramedic just nodded in understanding.

Meanwhile, Sarah landed in the most desolate, lifeless place she had ever seen. Ever since the meltdown, Chernobyl had been a no-go area. Many scientists had done research of the effects of the radiation on the local flora and fauna. Right now though, nothing could be further from Sarah's mind. All she could consider was the fact that the last person who could possibly give her answers behind her twisted past was here somewhere.

She made her way towards the old cooling tower, her armour warning her about the background radiation as she approached it. She knew that the radiation shields in her armour would hold up, but given the battle against her mother, she was sure that hanging around in the open would not be wise.

She stooped down, examining a dandelion that had forced its way through the cracked, dry soil. Even in a place like this, life managed to force its way into being. It was a comforting thought. Her thoughts were dragged back as a blast shattered the stone of the cooling tower a little way over her head. Sarah turned to see half a dozen GEARS rushing towards her.

"I guess this is the right place after all." She sighed, preparing to defend herself.

Back in Corinth, Flynn raced through the hospital like a man possessed as he searched frantically for his wife. He accidentally slammed into a young intern, sending him flying but in his rush he didn't even pause briefly to check on him. Finally finding Summer in the hallway, he ran over to her.

"She's just inside." Summer informed him. "They're both fine."

Flynn made his way inside, finding Sam lying on the bed, finally at peace and resting after her long labour. She turned to him, smiling weakly, a little bundle of blankets resting on her arm.

"There's someone you should meet lover." She told him. "Say hello to your son."

Flynn scooped the child out of her arms, resting it gently in the crook of his left arm, grinning from ear to ear as he beheld his son for the first time. He was tiny and bright pink, but he was obviously exhausted from the effort of coming into the world. Flynn dragged his fingers across his face gently.

"You did well there son." Mr. McAllister stated from the corner of the room. "He's a lovely wee bairn."

"Have you named him yet?" Flynn asked Sam. She shook her head gently.

"I wanted to wait for you." She told him. "I wanted you to pick with me."

"I really like Callum." He told her, bobbing his newborn son gently.

"I think it suits him." She replied happily. "Callum McAllister."

Flynn leant over, kissing his wife's forehead gently. She was so tired after the labour, but she was still beautiful to him.

"You did well pet." He told her happily. "You did really well."

Over in Chernobyl, a man in a dark business suit, covered by a lab coat watched the monitors in interest. He had always suspected that this day would come, but he had never believed it would. He didn't even flinch as the doors flew across the room, Sarah's mechanically-enhanced strength tearing them free effortlessly.

"I guess you're the one who killed Misawa." He sighed, not even looking at her. He turned around in his chair, looking at her.

"Actually he killed himself." She corrected him. "Just like my mother did."

The last senior partner nodded his head, acknowledging the detail and got up from his seat. He held his hands up where she could see them.

"You don't need to worry; I have no intention of fighting you." He told her. "I've already received the karmic payback for what I've done."

"How can anything ever repay what you took from us?" She asked him. "We were children!"

He opened his shirt, showing her a device implanted into his chest. It was only then that she realised that it was connected by a large cable into the console he had been sitting at.

"I had a congenital heart condition. If it wasn't for the medical advances this installation created, I'd have been dead before your first birthday." He informed her. "They replaced my heart with this device. At first I thought they had given me my life back. Over time though, I came to see this place for what it is. It's more than just a prison for me. It's my tomb. I haven't been able to leave this installation in over 20 years."

"Do you expect me to sympathise with you?" She asked him coldly. He just shook his head.

"I knew the day would come when I had to answer for what I've done." He told her. He ejected a disk from the console, and put it into a case. "This is all the information you'll ever need. Unlike the others, I knew who the CEO was."

"Why would he tell you and not the others?" She asked him. He simply gestured the device in his chest.

"Without being connected to this console, the device would stop working and I'd be dead within the hour." He told her. "He knew I was no danger to him."

"Is he still alive?" She asked him. The partner nodded to confirm this.

"He was the only one of us who went to Corinth." He informed her. Sarah's yes shot wide at this revelation. Not only was the man responsible for Alphabet Soup, the one who had taken her entire life from her before she was even born still alive, but he had been in the same city with her all this time.

"Who is he?" She asked him. "I want his name!"

"Charles Winchester the Third." He replied. Sarah's eyes started to tear up as she heard this. She had no idea if Chas knew how his father had amassed the family fortune, or if he knew what he had done to her and all the others in Alphabet Soup. "The evidence on that disk will be more than enough to bring him to justice."

He reached down to the cable in his chest and unplugged it.

"I know you can never forgive me for what I've done." He told her. "I only stayed alive for the day I could atone for my part in this evil."

Sarah just turned her back and left, wiping her eyes with the back of her hand. Both Misawa and her mother had fought her, determined to destroy her, and yet this man had been the exact opposite. He had been as much a prisoner of the Macha Group as she had been. Despite his part in her evil, he had accepted his fate. Unplugging himself from the mainframe, he had sealed his own fate. He would be dead within the hour, long before SPD could come to collect him. In his own way, he had sentenced himself for his crime.

Back in Corinth, the Rangers had all gathered in Sam's room, eager to greet the newest member of their family. Flynn was sitting with Callum in his arms, still completely smitten with his young son.

"He's gorgeous." Gemma gushed as she fawned over him. "You're so lucky Flynn."

"He's amazing." Flynn responded. "I can't believe I'm a dad!"

"So are you looking forward to all the shopping?" Dillon asked him, putting his arm around Summer. "I remember all the stuff we had to get when Alex was born."

"So has Sarah seen him yet?" Scott asked. As soon as he said it, Summer, Gem, Gemma and Tenaya all looked at each other uneasily. They still hadn't told him about Sarah's departure. They had no idea where she was, or in what condition. Summer looked up to him, her eyes already telling him that she had something serious to tell him.

"Sarah isn't here." She began nervously, uncertain how he would react.

"What do you mean she isn't here?" He asked her, shaking his head slowly in disbelief. "Where is she?"

"We don't know." Gemma told him. "She left Corinth before the VV day celebration. We haven't seen her since then."

"That was over a week ago!" Scott roared angrily. "Why didn't you tell me?"

"We knew you were busy in Angel Grove, we didn't want you to worry." Summer told him. "Scott..."

Before she could finish he had stormed out of the room. They all knew that he would be worried about her. Unfortunately though there was nothing practical they could do to help him. Unless she wanted to be found, there was no way they could locate her short of using satellite imaging to manually search every square inch of the planet.

"That went about as well as we expected." Tenaya stated.

"Can you blame him?" Summer asked in response. "He's just found out his fiancée is missing."

"Do you really have no idea where he went?" Dillon asked them. Summer just shrugged.

"Dippy called to say the SPD team got a signal from Geneva. Apparently she had been there." She informed him. "Where she went after that is anyone's guess."

Meanwhile, in his mansion in another part of town, Charles Winchester was sitting in his study. He looked up from his desk to the glass doors leading out onto the balcony, and jumped back in fright as he saw a dark, winged figure standing there.

An energy blast erupted from the battle suits gauntlets, sending glass flying into the room. Sarah strode in purposefully, glass crunching underfoot as she made her way inside. She recalled her helmet to confront him face to face.

"What is the meaning of this?" He demanded angrily. "How dare you come into my home?"

"Your business partners are dead." She informed him coldly, tears running down her face as she grabbed him roughly by the shirt. With the seraphim rig augmenting her strength, she easily picked him up, ramming him against the wall. "You're all that's left of the Macha Group."

His face slipped as she said this, realising that his secret was out.

"I'll give you anything you want!" He told her.

"Can you give me my life back?" She screamed, throwing him across the room. "You took everything from us!"

Mr. Winchester pulled himself off the ground, holding up his hands defensively.

"Please, let me explain." He begged her. Sarah just slammed a hand into his chest, sending him flying into the wall.

"You can't buy your way out of this Winchester!" She yelled at him. "You're going to pay for what you did to us!"
