Krystal looked all over Delta Base for Sky, but the one place she hadn't looked was the gym, she found the blue ranger, going at the punching bag. She said nothing but just went up and held the bag steady. No one knew it, but Sky and Krystal are close friends. Even if Sky acted like he was better than everyone else was because his father was a Red.
"Picturing Jack's face on the bag isn't going to help you." Krystal stated once Sky finished pounding the bag.
"What are you doing here?" Sky asked he did not mean to be rude but Krystal waved off his attitude as she normally did.
"You need a friendly face, and I just happen to know you better." Krystal replied handing Sky the blue towel that was waiting for him.
"You don't know me at all." Sky replied as he headed toward the locker room to change back into his uniform.
"Oh no?" Krystal asked, "You want so much to walk in your father's footsteps that just seeing someone else wear a certain primary color just rubs you the wrong way."
Sky turned and stared at the dirty blonde girl. "How?"
"I know how you feel Sky, but unlike you. I am not letting it get to me." Krystal replied, "No one knows this, but half of my family were Rangers before us. I have a lot of spandex to fill out. You just have your father."
Sky did not know how to respond, he just went into the locker room, and showered, changed back into his uniform. Once he came back out, Krystal was still waiting for him. They walked back to their squad room, and dormitory.
Krystal gave a sigh before entering her dorm, and flinging herself on her bed. She grabbed the nearby picture of her mother, father, and herself. Will she ever live up to their greatest, they have fought against terrors that came out of nightmares, and here; she was the Silver back-up Ranger.
She looked up as she thought she felt the familiar fire-essence of her mother, "What? No, she couldn't be close." She rolled off the bed, and went out into the Rec room. To stare out the window there, she couldn't be sure that it was her mother Desiree, but for some odd reason, she felt a fire ninja nearby.
"Hey cousin!" Miko exclaimed sprinting across the room, "I was just in the lab with Kat going over my next assignment from her. When I thought I sensed…"
"Our respective mother's elemental-essence?" Krystal finished
"Why were they in town?" Miko asked "And why didn't they just walk right into headquarters like they own the place."
Krystal rubbed the back of her head. "I think they were checking up on us. You know a mother's worry and all that and it's ten times worse when our mothers are ninja masters."
The two cousins stared out the window unsure as to why they felt their mothers' elements.
