Angel Grove Hospital Room 203
"Andros," Ashley said. Andros slowly came back to reality. TJ, Carlos, and Zhane helped him up. Andros looked at Ashley and the baby in her arms. It was his baby.
"I'm a daddy?" Andros said. Ashley nodded trying not to cry. Andros walked closer to Ashley.
"We should probably leave the three of you alone," TJ said. The other nodded in agreement they left Andros, Ashley, and Halley alone. Once the door was shut Ashley spoke.
"I'm sorry you had to find out this way I mean I wanted to tell you the day I found out, but you were far away and I had no way to get in touch with you." Ashley said. Andros turned his back facing the window. "I understand if you're upset with me."
He turned around and went over to her he looked at the sleeping baby in her arms."Ash I could never be upset with you," he said."I love you and I love our child."
"Really," Ashley said on verge of crying.
Andros nodded."Ashley I helped create this beautiful baby and I am going to be there one hundred percent," he said.
"Would you like to hold her?" Ashley asked. Andros nodded as he walked back over to Ashley and Ashley handed him Halley. He looked down at Halley as she slept. She was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen.
"She's beautiful," Andros murmured. Ashley smiled.
"Her name is Halley," Ashley said."Like Halley's Comet."
"Our first date," Andros smiled he sat in the chair next to Ashley's bed.
"Uh-huh," Ashley smiled. Andros and Ashley caught up for a few hours before the others decided it would be a good time to come back. Everybody hugged Andros welcoming him back to Earth and congratulating him and Ashley on their new addition.
Once they all got Andros caught up on graduation and what not, they all left the new family alone for the evening. Once the nurse took Halley back to the nurse Ashley and Andros were left alone for the first time since Andros had arrived. Ashley made some room next to her on her bed patting the spot right next to her smiling at Andros.
Andros came over and sat next to her wrapping his arms around her. Ashley snuggled into his chest.
"I've missed this," Ashley said.
"Me too, me too," Andros said.

"Excellent," said the Dark Specter. "I have big plans for him,"
Angel Grove Hospital Day 3
Today was the day Ashley was finally being release from the hospital with baby Halley. Andros pulled up the car around to the front of the hospital. Ashley put Halley in the car seat and sat in the back with Halley as Andros pulled out of the hospital. Andros and Ashley bought a house online the first night they were at the hospital because they knew they would live together and they needed a place of their own. So once they found a place they liked Andros checked it out and it was perfect. He showed the others and they took care of making it into a home.
They pulled into the drive way and Andros opened Ashley's door and went onto the other side and took the baby carrier out and opened the door into the house.
"Welcome home," TJ, Cassie, Carlos, Zhane, and Karone said as the happy family entered. Andros put the baby carrier on the ground as everybody hugged them.
"Thanks you guys," Ashley smiled. "And thanks so much for getting everything," Ashley said.
"It was no problem we couldn't have my cutie of a niece live in some ugly place," Karone said.
"Yeah and you should of known Karone and I would take care of you," Cassie said.
"Well you guys are the best," Ashley said hugging them.
"Of course we are," Cassie said and all three of the girls laughed.
Halley started to get fussy and Andros took her out of the carrier."Hey there baby girl," Andros said. He cradle her in his arms.
"Aw look how cute, I need a picture of this," Cassie said. Ashley and Andros laughed. Ashley walked over to Andros and Halley.
"I can already tell she is going to be a total daddy's girl," Ashley said. She then kissed Andros on the cheek and then kissed Halley's head. Cassie wouldn't stop taking pictures. Once Andros and Ashley got Halley all set in her nursery they came back downstairs to their guests.
They all sat down in the living room. "So when are you two getting married?" Cassie smirked.
Andros put his arms around Ashley and kissed her head. "Cassie jeez Andros just got back were not going to get married right away there is too much going on right now," Ashley said. She knew Andros had come back for her, but she didn't want to rush anything.
They all spent the day dotting over Halley and chatting it up like old times. Once it got to around eight o'clock at night the gang left and Ashley and Andros were getting ready for bed.
"We're finally alone," Andros said walking out of the bathroom attached to the master bedroom. Ashley giggled sitting up in the bed. Andros jumped into the bed next to Ashley. He kissed her long and passionately. They pulled away slowly from each other when they heard sounds of a baby crying.
"I'll go get her," Ashley said getting out of the bed and walking into the nursery.
She went straight over to the crib and took Halley out of the crib and Halley stopped crying. Then Ashley brought her into hers and Andros' room. She got back into bed next to Andros holding Halley. Andros kissed Ashley forehead and smiled down at Halley.
Ashley leaned her head onto Andros shoulder and smiled down at the baby girl before her. "I can't believe she is all ours," Andros said.
"I know right," Ashley said. They never took their eyes off of Halley. Ashley placed Halley between her and Andros. Andros stroked Halley's face ever so gently.
Once Ashley fell asleep Andros picked up Halley and brought her back into the nursery and put her in the crib. He then left to go back to the mega ship.
The Mega Ship
Andros looked at the screen he had gotten a transmission from KO-35 saying that the heir to the throne was taken away and that they needed his help to find him. Andros was torn he couldn't just leave Ashley and Halley, but he knew he had duties as the Red Astro Ranger. Andros looked at the video again of the young prince was being kidnapped. It reminded him of the time his own sister Karone was taken away, but this young prince was only one years old and taken in during the middle of the night when everyone was sleeping.
He looked at the time on his watch it was also two in the morning so he headed back to the house.
Somewhere in Space
"Eclipser," Dark Specter said.
"Yes my lord," Eclipser said.
"Do you have the child?" he asked.
"Yes my lord," Eclipser replied.
"Excellent," Dark Specter said.
Back on Earth some months later
The past six months had been going great for Andros and Ashley. They had a beautiful healthy little girl and they had found their way back to each other. Ashley was being a stay at home mom while Andros went to work for NASA. Andros even cut his hair.
Halley was crawling around on the floor as Ashley was making dinner. Andros walked into the house. "I'm home," he said. Halley crawled her way to the sound of Andros voice and Andros picked her up and kissed her on the head. He walked into the kitchen.
"Hey hun," Ashley said as Andros kissed her on the cheek."How was work?"
"Work was work," Andros said putting Halley back on the ground."How was your day?"
"My day was good my parents stopped by," Ashley said.
"And how are Mr. and Mrs. Hammond?" Andros asked wrapping his arms around her waist.
"Their great," Ashley smiled.
While Ashley finished making dinner Andros spent his time playing with his daughter. She was the world to him. He never thought he could love something as much as he loved Halley and Ashley. They were the best things to happen to him. The thing was he hiding something. Something he knew would worry Ashley. All the rangers had lost their powers except for one and that was Andros. He was still trying to save the universe from evil and with this new mission he was working on and everything.
Once Halley was fed and had a bath Andros put her to bed and came back downstairs to his girlfriend and smiled. Ashley had a thing for candle lit dinners and they knew once Halley got older they wouldn't be able to have them anymore.
"This looks amazing Ashley," Andros said kissing her.
"Why thank you," Ashley said. They sat at the table across from each other talking. Andros knew he had found the one and he wanted to be with her forever and that night he was going to do it.
They were sitting together on the couch watching some television snuggle. "Ash?" Andros asked.
"Yes Andros," Ashley said looking up at him.
"Come with me," he said getting up off the couch and headed outside.
"What is it Andros," Ashley said as she followed him outside.
"Look at the stars," Andros said.
Ashley looked up, "They are beautiful tonight, but Andros why are we outside looking at the stars," Ashley said and looked back to Andros and he was kneeling down on one knee.
"Ashley Hammond," he started pulling out a box from his pocket.
"Ohmygod ohmygod," Ashley said putting her hands over her mouth.
"I loved you ever since you and the others found my ship and joined my team, you are the mother of my child and I love you so much and I want to make you my wife," he said, "So Ashley Hammond would you marry me," Andros said opening the box.
Ashley started to cry. "Yes Andros I'll marry you," Ashley said. Andros picked her up and spun her around and passionately kissing her. They released from each other and he placed the ring on her finger.
