Chapter II - A Chance Encounter

(Six Months Later, Harwood County)

Since Rocky DeSantos had moved to Harwood he had thrown himself into opening and running the Rising Sun Dojo, which had been an immense success. The only worry he had was that Adam had disappeared with a trace, but being Adam he probably turn up some where random, completely safe.

Currently the former ranger was in a supermarket stocking up on food. Once again Rocky left himself wondering how on earth he could eat so much.

Just as Rocky two boxes of Twinkies into his trolly a small mass collided with his leg. Rocky looked down to see a young boy around two.

"I lost my mummy," spoke the child.

Rocky knelt down to look the child in the eyes.

"I'm sure we can find her," replied Rocky, "What's your name?"

"Jake. Jake Holling," answered the young boy.

"That's a nice name," commented Rocky, standing up.

"JAKE!" came the shout of a woman.

Said woman raced down the aisle and engulfed the boy in a hug.

"He's my son," explained the mother, standing up.

"He's a nice kid," said Rocky.

The woman laughed, "He's like his dad, always cause trouble somewhere or running off."

"I'm Rocky DeSantos," introduced the former ranger, holding his hand out.

"Anna Holling," spoke the woman, shaking Rocky's hand.

"I'm a martial arts master!" added the hyperactive child.

"He's obsessed with martial arts, but all the kids dojos in Harwood are full," explained Anna.

"Actually not," said Rocky, "I recently opened a dojo, I have free spaces."

"Really? That would be great," spoke Anna, "He's already doing gymnastics at Hart Gymnastics, he's really good."

The name startled Rocky, surely it couldn't be Kim, here in Harwood. Aside from the Muiranthias Incident no one bar Jason had heard from Kim after the letter.

"Sure," spoke Rocky, distracted, "come by any time you can."

"Okay, goodbye," said Anna, "Jake, say goodbye to Mr. DeSantos."

"Goodbye Mr. DeSantos," uttered Jake meekly.

"Please call me Rocky," added the former ranger, "Mr. DeSantos is my dad."

"Sure," affirmed Anna, "Goodbye Rocky."

"Goodbye Anna," replied Rocky, "See you soon."

With that both Rocky and Anna turned and went in their separate directions, Jake following the latter.
