Rock Bottom
The nights seemed extremely long for Sky and Kathleen now that they had to spend them apart after spending nearly two months together sleeping in each other's arms. They also found that hiding their relationship from their teammates to be harder than they had first thought it would be, and nearly impossible to keep Kat and Commander Cruger from knowing. They knew they would have to reveal it sometime, and that needed to be soon. They didn't know it but their teammates were planning to set them up with each other.
Sky walked into the rec. room that stormy night to see his girlfriend standing at the window watching the rain.
"Kathleen, what's wrong?"
"I can't sleep, can't get comfortable"
"Me either" Sky walked over silently and placed his arms around her waist.
"Maybe we should tell everyone else about our relationship, Sky, it's becoming harder to keep it a secret" she said, "my mom is getting suspicious"
"So is Commander Cruger" Sky reported "but I think the teams are clueless"
"Yeah, that's how it seems to me"
"I hope they can stay that way for a while" Kathleen laughed playfully
"Yes…let's"
He had become accustom to feeling her contented purring and had begun to enjoy hearing, and feeling it from her occasionally.
The next day came, and everything was quiet until a large explosion wracked Kat's lab
Kathleen was in the workout room with Sky and Jack; Kathleen was punching on the punching bag as Sky steadied it.
"So you two have become pretty close, I see," Jack observed as Kathleen stopped.
"Yeah, we have" Sky shrugged like it was just a normal thing… Jack thought it was slightly odd that Sky just shrugged his observation off, but didn't pester him about it, he knew that was not really a responsible thing to do.
"Why don't we go on and spar… you two first and then I'll take whoever wins." Jack suggested
"Cool" Kathleen replied
"Okay" Sky said
Meanwhile: Kat was working on a new project that required a bit of chemistry. She ignored the beeping sound she heard in the background figuring it was nothing, but she had no idea the truth of what was about to happen.
Suddenly a large explosion threw her backward and she struck her head on her computer table, hard.
Kathleen had just started to spar with Jack when they heard something akin to a shotgun blast coming from Kat's lab.
"What was that?" Jack demanded
"I don't know, but it sounding like it came from my mother's lab!" Kathleen said anxiously.
They grabbed their morphers
"SPD EMERGENCY!" they all exclaimed and then ran in the direction of Kat's lab: disregarding the chaos around them.
They got there to see that the force of the blast had blown out the doors to the lab.
"MOM!" Kathleen cried as she noticed Kat laying on the floor in front of her computer, unconscious!
