Price of loss.
An amazing discover.
It was beautiful Friday morning. Chip was walking down the street, hurrying to The Rock Porium , he wanted to see his friends and tell them about his amazing discover. Last five meters to the shop he covered in some seconds, like a huge, ugly monster was pursuing him.
-Hey guys! – He shut door behind him. Right at this time Xander rushed to him with greeting-devilish smile and hid behind his back. At next moment Chip found himself soaked in water.
-Ooops! – Vida smirked and rubbed back of her head.
-Nice shot, V! – Xander grinned and vanished in staff room. Immediately, Maddie appeared from the door, where Xander has just disappeared. She gave V misunderstanding 'what's-with-him' look and pointed at the stuff room door. Vida just shrugged her shoulders and, unsuccessfully, tried not to laugh.
Maddie moved her look to Chip, and her eyes widened.
-Oh my gosh! Chip, what happened to you?! Is it raining outside? – with this words Madison stretched out her hand in Chip's direction, right after it all liquid was gone off of Chip, flying in the air, it ended up on the floor in front of screaming Madison. Chip was absolutely dry and had a triumphal look on his face. V was just staring in amazement.
-Wait a minute…I thought our powers were gone after Master destruction!
-So did I. But today at the morning a little thing happened. I wanted to tell you, guys, but V… - he was cut off by Vida.
-Enough! It was a joke, you know it, and it was intended for Xander, you also know it, and…just forget about it! – Maddie listened to them with annoyed look.
-Hello! – she waved at them.
-Is it just me, or something strange is really happening with our powers?! – She then crossed her hands at her chest, looking at Chip, waiting for explanations. V just did the same.
-Well…actually…I don't now much more than you are…I just waked up in the morning, and found a little clot of energy, flying above my head…then it exploded and left a little hole in my ceiling! Hopefully, mum wouldn't notice it.
-So…it means, that our, with Xander, powers are back too? – V rubbed her hands with a smile, that didn't promise anything good.
-I guess so…why? – Chip knew, that she was planning nothing good.
-Xander, come here, please, for a minute!
-Oh no, V! I know, why you're asking that! No way! – V knew Xander wouldn't give up so easy.
-OK…so I could tell this girl, you won't show up?- they all heard a fast tramping, and X's head, and then body, appeared in the doorway.
-So…which beautiful fairy wants to see me today?- Right there and then a small pink tornado caught him and started to spin him all over the place.
-Get it off of me! – Xander yelled to Vida with all his lungs. V smiled and snapped her fingers, X fell on the floor.
-As you wish sweetheart! – V turned around, wanting to come back to her turntable. Xander rolled his eyes, while getting up on his feet. Then he raised his hand and a huge liana wrapped V's waist. He smiled.
-I don't want to know, why we're able to do this again…but it's cool! Again… - V sent a blast of wind to Xander, but he moved out of the way, and it hit Maddie. She growled playfully and shot a stream of water at her sister. They all started fighting.
Soon all shop was in awful mess. Then door bell rang and somebody entered the shop. Everybody was stopped by a scream of surprise. They turned to the door and saw a ginger girl, staring at them with all of her eyes. It remained only to pray, that this girl hasn't seen anything. Meanwhile the Girl started to walk towards them.
-Hi…-she waved to them, everybody did no response, just stuck to places, where they've been. First Xander came to himself, because this girl was looking gorgeous and he just couldn't let his chance to go.
-Good morning, looking for something…or someone? – he winked to her.
-Actually yes…by the way, I'm Lindsay. – she offered Xander her hand and her cheeks turned a little pink. The boy took offered hand.
-I'm Xander, nice to meet you. – He kissed her hand slightly, making her cheeks even, more pink. Once he saw Daggeron doing this, and he saw what effect it caused on girls.
-This is my friends: Madison, Chip and…Vida.- Everybody said they greetings.
-Yeah, I know, you were Power Rangers. – everybody was shocked.
-How did you…I mean…Who told you?! – Madison was serious as newer, their secret was out now. Lindsay smiled.
-Don't worry, I won't tell anyone. – Chip looked at her suspiciously.
-You're too kind…
-I just need help. – she raised her eyebrows. 'It could be harder, than I thought.' – c'mon, I really need help! – she looked at them with prayer.
- OK, it was sweet…but NO – Vida broke silence. This girl, in every way, was too suspicious character. V didn't like Lindsay from the very outset. Especially, after the moment, Xander kissed Lindsay's hand. Maddie looked at her sister's uneasy expression on face and suggested, that the girl better leave.
-Sorry…but we couldn't help you anyway, we haven't got our powers anymore! – Maddie gave Lindsay an apologetic look.
-Yeah I see…- Lindsay said with sarcasm.
-Stop! Why we couldn't?! Of course we can! – Xander received an angry look from Vida.
-Cool! Thank you! – Lindsay hanged over Xander's neck. X laughed too, Maddie and Chip shrugged their shoulders, while exchanging glances, and V shot a dreadful look to Lindsay, but it seemed, like girl hasn't seen it.
Everybody started to clean the Rock Porium and then Lindsay left, after all of them agreed about their next meeting. Maddie leaded her to the door and closed it after Lindsay left. It was late and Chip left to his home, he wanted to repair a hole in his room, before his mother would see it. Xander also was gone soon; he had set a date with another girl earlier that day. Now there were only V and Maddie in the store. Maddie was seating near window, looking at the opposite side of the road, when she heard a quiet melody flowing from loud speakers, she tried to catch words of the song:
Has anybody ever felt this way? I wonder if he ever thinks of me?
Has anybody been ripped apart?
Anybody give everything to the one they love?
Am I the only one left behind?
Am I the only one who hates goodbyes?
God I know this can't go on forever.
And all the promises he swore to keep
Some nights I lay in bed just burning up
'Cause I know that he's out with someone else!
She turned to see Vida, walking towards her with peaceful smile. V sat near her sister and hugged her shoulders a little.
-Do you miss him, sis? – Maddie opened her mouth in a soundless answer.
-You know V, it's just so complicated! – she bit her lips in despair. Vida smiled in silent. She knew perfectly, what her sister was talking about.
Nick Russel blew up their peaceful life in Briarwood, brought an adventure with him. He was handsome and gallant. And he always acted in a special way around V's sister. Vida thought, that he liked Maddie, but she didn't tell her about this, she was afraid to make a mistake. When they beat The Master, Vida hoped they'd finally get together, but Nick left Briarwood, left them, left Madison. V lost her hope after three months of waiting, but it seemed like, Madison won't loose her hope at all. One part of Vida Rocca wanted her sister to move on from Nick, but another truly respected her, for her permanency, and V didn't know what's good for Maddie, anymore.
-You know there is a good side of Nick's departure. – Maddie told after a long, uncomfortable silence between two sisters.
-Which one, sis? – Vida looked at girl.
-It's inspiring me. – Maddie smiled and gave V a piece of paper, which she took out of her jeans pocket. With this she left the Rock Porium without one more word, just smiling. Vida looked at the paper, there were a song, written on it. 'She never did such things before!' When V read her sis's song, tears were streaming down her cheeks, it was so emotional:
Lost in the darkness, hoping for a sign I'll find you somewhere Lost in the darkness, try to find your way home I'll find you somewhere Wherever you are, I won't stop searching. I'll find you somewhere
Instead there is only silence,
Can't you hear my screams...?
Never stop hoping,
Need to know where you are
But one thing is for sure,
You're always in my heart.
I'll keep on trying until my dying day
I just need to know whatever has happened,
The Truth will free my soul.
I want to embrace you and never let you go
Almost hope you're in heaven so no one can hurt your soul...
Living in agony 'cause I just do not know
Where you are
I'll keep on trying until my dying day
I just need to know whatever has happened,
The Truth will free my soul.
Whatever it takes, I need to know.
I'll keep on trying until my dying day
I just need to know whatever has happened,
The Truth will free my soul…
After reading the song, V just sat there, thinking about her love, and how it had hurt her all through this time. After half an hour she wiped her tears, stood up, turned off the music and went home, previously closing the store. While walking home she had admitted of how badly she wanted all their adventures back. When, they all spent a lot of time together. When, Xander spent a lot of his time with her.
