Nicole Scott watched as the the people of Angel Grove boarded, the space colony Terra Venture,

"I'm surprised you're not going," a voice spoke from behind her, Nicole turned around, and smiled when she saw TJ,

"Nah, I like earth better," Nicole replied,

TJ rocked back and forth on his feet like he wanted to ask a question,

"Mind joining me for lunch, as old friends?" Nicole asked, "Jase, is at work."

"Sure, I haven't anything better to do." TJ replied,

Nicole and the former space ranger, went to a small restaurant, sitting down in out of the way booth,

"How life since Countdown?" TJ asked

"Order anything you want, my treat." Nicole replied as a waitress came over,

"My Name's Leslie, May I take your order," the waitress greeted, as she passed out menus

"I'll have an ice tea, and we'll take a few minutes to order," Nicole stated,

"ice tea too," TJ ordered,

the waitress walked away dazed as the blue space ranger talked to her,

"Life since my secret as a Sailor Senshi came out. well, I have been avoiding the press, they want to know about me, my parents, the other senshi that came during mighty morphing era, but mainly the citizens of Angel Grove have been leaving me alone, as I'm a heroine" Nicole explained,

"Brutal," remarked TJ, "Any other places wanting to know about you?"

"Nope, just Angel Grove was targeted by Astronema, speaking of I need to contact Karone," Nicole replied, "I have seen a vision, that Karone will be needed, in a few months, helping the Lost Galaxy Rangers."

TJ's mouth dropped open, "I would ask but I don't think I will."

"my gift is foresight, I seen that the new team of Rangers will win the battle of good vs evil," Nicole stated, "Oh, do you still have a morpher,"

"No, the other space rangers and I locked are Astro morphers in the power vault on the megaship." TJ answered,

Nicole reached for her purse, and dug though it, and pulled out a turbo morpher, and passed it to TJ,

"I saw Lighting Cruiser, and he wanted me to pass this to you, just in case." Nicole explained,

the waitress came back "Ready to order?"

"Yes, I'll have the grilled chicken club sandwich, with side order of French fries" Nicole ordered

" Swiss and mushroom burger," TJ ordered, "with onion rings,"

"I will be right back with that order," Leslie stated,

"Healthy lunch?" asked TJ

Nicole looked down and blushed, "No, I have to watch what I eat for the next few months."

"Are you?" questioned TJ

"congratulations, You're going to be an Uncle." Nicole grinned,

"Wait till I tell Ashley and Cassie, they'll want to throw you a baby shower," TJ laughed,

"Might as well add in Karone too," Nicole sighed,

"Have you told Jason yet?" TJ asked,

"Nope, I found out today, that is why I'm not going on Terra Venture," Nicole answered,

Leslie came back with their orders, "Here is your grilled chicken club, swiss and mushroom burger,"

"Thank you," Nicole stated, as she began to eat. Between bites Nicole looked at TJ, "So what have you been doing?"

"Nothing much, trying for that baseball career since I was side tracked, have you heard from Tommy?" TJ replied,

"Tommy, last I saw him, he was going to college, he gave up on the racing thing," Nicole answered,

Nicole paid for their lunch and left a tip, together the two friends left.

"It was good to see you again, TJ. I hope we meet each other something," Nicole replied, "Oh before I forget, here." Nicole handed TJ a business card,

"Crescent Moon Dojo?" TJ read the card,

"My personal number is on the back, keep the card but give the girls my number, if they are going to plan, I have to tell Jase," Nicole explained, "Also call me if you need anything color based,"

"alright and good luck with Jason." TJ replied

They hugged each other, and went their separate ways.

Nicole sighed as she opened her and Jason's apartment door, they would need someplace bigger,

"Jase, Selene, I'm home." Nicole called out,

Selene padded up to her, her topaz eyes brightened at her friend came though the door, she leapt at Nicole,

The guardian caught her feline friend, "You can't do that in the next five months,"

"Five months?" Jason asked as he came from the bathroom wearing only pants, and no shirt. With a towel around his shoulders to dry his hair off,

Nicole bit her lip, "I went to the doctor today,"

Jason blinked "Doctor? I thought you didn't get sick,"

"Not that doctor, my gynecologist," Nicole stated, "Selene, you're going to have a new little charge,"

both Selene's and Jason's eyes widen in surprise,

"You're pregnant," Jason stated in awe,

"How far along, Nicole?" Selene asked, seeing as Jason in his father-to-be land,

"six weeks," Nicole answered,

Jason finally came out of his fantasies, and crossed the room in three steps to pick up Nicole and swing her around the living room before kissing her,

Selene looked at the happy couple, it was beginning to be a good life, after all the heartache, battles, losing treasured friends. Nicole finally got what she desired, the love of her life, now starting her very own family,

"I'm not babysitting," Selene teased.
