Bridge's Secret Friend Chapter 4

Leaving

5:50 P.M.

SPD Head Quarters

Bridge was shaking as he made his way to the roof.

He never met Yoko at SPD before; they always met in the park but never here.

So many questions raced through his nerve-racked mind.

What if they were found? What will happen to Yoko if he was found? Would Yoko kill them to get away or get killed himself?

Bridge felt his breath catch as a far worse thought came to his mind.

What if Sky found out he had lied to him? What would happen to their friendship? Bridge shuttered at the thought of the possible outcome. He suddenly found himself wishing he had told Sky about the note from Yoko. What had possessed him to lie about it in the first place?

He looked up startled to see to find the door to the stairs in front of him. Bridge swallowed hard and turned the doorknob. It wasn't like he could turn back now.

What should have been a five-minute walk up the stairs felt as if it had taken hours. The fact his legs felt like rubber more than likely didn't help.

Bridge put his hand on the knob of the door that led to the roof. He hesitated long enough to take a calming breath before he opened to door to meet with the one on the other side.

Yoko stood there looking over the city, his coat flowing out behind him like water.

"Bridge, I see that you made it," he noted without looking at the green ranger, his clam voice never once betraying whatever it was he felt.

Bridge gave a slight smile. "Good to see you again, Yoko."

Yoko turn around, arm crossed. Bridge was too used to this unemotional act from him to really notice.

"I see you been keeping up with your training." Yoko said, after look at Bridge for a moment.

"It shows?" Bridge asked surprised. Yoko gave him a rare unfocused smile.

"It shows." He said as he uncrossed his arms and walked towards Bridge.

"We need to talk about something serious."

Bridge gave a quick smile. For as long as they had known each other Yoko had always been one to change moods quickly.

"What is it about?" Bridge asked with a straight face.

Yoko reached into a carrying case that Bridge hadn't noticed before and pulled out a scroll with a map rolled into it.

"I found ancient item 30 miles out side the city, which I find ironic. Weird, how these things work out and come to be." Yoko babbled.

Bridge raised an eyebrow; Yoko didn't babble.

"What's is it called?"

"Its an amulet. As for its name, I don't know. No one does." Yoko replied, holding out the scroll to Bridge.

Bridge nodded a thanks, reading what it had to say.

"It says here it has the power to give a person control over their natural power and focus it." Bridge looked up confusion in his eyes and hope in his smile.

"So, if I get this amulet I can ditch the gloves at last and won't get anymore headaches from other peoples feelings?" Bridge asked hopefully.

"I don't know what it means by focus but it has to be a good thing." Yoko answered honestly with a shrug of his shoulders.

"So now what?" Bridge asked as rolled up the scroll.

Yoko took a deep breath. "Now it time for you to make a choice."

"What choice?" he asked, not sure that if he wanted the answer.

"Come with me to get the amulet and leave SPD or stay here." Bridge was shocked at this statement that fell against a near by wall, Yoko remained where he was.

"You're asking me to leave my friends and home." Bridge said after finding his voice.

"No. You have to make the choice here. I won't force you to do anything if you don't want to do." Yoko said in a kind voice. Bridge found the courage to look him straight in the eyes.

"If I say no then what?" He asked in a harsh voice.

Yoko looked at him for a good long moment before answering.

"Then I'll go find another way to help you. A way that wouldn't make you choose between your life and the answer to control your growing powers." Yoko said.

Bridge was surprised by this answer. Yoko was willing to help in anyway that he could, even if it meant looking in other places to help him. Bridge sat up and smiled.

"Do you really mean it?" Bridge asked.

Yoko gave another smile. "I meant every word of it."

Bridge returned the smile and walked to the end of the roof, looking over the city. They both stood there for a long moment as Bridge thought about what Yoko told him. Without warning Bridge turned around and faced Yoko.

"Lets do it, lets go get it." For the first time in his life Yoko was a bit taken back. Bridge had a fix look on his face, that told Yoko he made up his mind and there was no changing it.

"Alright, we'll leave at midnight." Yoko said, as Bridge nodded in agreement.

"I'll meet you the at the main entrance at five minutes to midnight." Bridge said, as this time Yoko nodded.

Bridge went to the door, he turned to have one last look at his friend but saw he was gone. Bridge shrugged and went through the door, wondering how he was going to explain this to Sky.

Bridge lied down on his bed holding Mr. D to his chest; the conversation he had with Yoko kept going through his head, wondering what he was doing was the right thing to do. He had a bag packed and ready to go under his bed.

God, Sky was going to kick his ass, leaving SPD like this. But Bridge didn't want to say good-bye. At that moment Sky walked in their room.

"Hey, Bridge. How are you doing?" he asked, as he threw his morpher on the nightstand and threw his jacket over to a near by chair.

"Doing good." Bridge replied, trying to sound as if it was good.

Sky turned and looked at Bridge. Bridge's tone spoke volumes. Sky sat at the end of Bridge's bed and looked him dead in the eye.

"Is there something you would like to tell me?" Sky asked in a soothing voice. Bridge turned his head to avoid Sky's eyes.

"No, why do you ask?" Bridge said after a minute, shrugging his shoulders as if it would put an end to Sky's questions. The blue ranger raised an eyebrow.

"I have known you for way too long Bridge. You're lying," he put a hand on his shoulder. "So please tell me what's wrong."

Bridge looked at Sky with an unsure look a minute before found his voice again.

"I saw Yoko tonight and he said he found a way to focus my powers."

Sky didn't know how to feel about this piece of news.

"What did he find?" Sky asked in a shaky voice.

Bridge finally turned his head to look at Sky.

"It's an amulet, that is said to focus the user's powers." Sky knew for some reason this wasn't the reason.

"Anything else?" Sky asked trying to sound causal about it. Bridge sat up and looked Sky in the eye.

"I have to leave SPD for a while to get it."

Sky suddenly understood. "So, you don't know what to do, right?"

Bridge gave a light nod of his head, eyes drifting down to Mr. D.

Sky sighed as he did the right thing. Bridge needed to hear this even if Sky didn't want Bridge to leave.

"You should go with Yoko."

Bridge's head shot up, that wasn't what he was expecting, at all.

"Are you sure?" Bridge asked.

Sky nodded his head. Bridge was so overwhelmed with this that he hugged Sky. Sky rubbed his back in soothing circles neither of them talking. After a moment Bridge let go.

"What I should tell Cruger?" Bridge asked. Sky got up and Bridge followed suit.

"Don't worry, I'll tell him,"

Bridge looked at the clock and saw it was 11:50 P.M. "I need to get going."

He when under his bed and pulled the bag out throwing it over his shoulders.

Bridge hesitated for a second before he picked up Mr. D. and handed the toy to Sky with a small sad smile. "Watch him for me please, if anything happens to him I'll kick your butt."

Sky nodded and Bridge with a heavy heart began to walk out of the room.

The door open and Bridge turn around and said, "Sky, thanks, for being the brother that I needed when I needed it the most. I'll…I'll miss you." With that he walked out.

Sky held Mr. D. in his right hand, forcing back tears. He walked to the window and look outside. Sky watched Bridge walk toward a dark figure that must have been Yoko. It looked as though they exchanged a few words and started to walk away.

Bridge knowing Sky was watching from their window turned around and waved. Shy waved back as he watched them until the darkness shielded them from his sight.

Sky flopped down on his bed still wearing his clothes. He put Bridge's beloved stuffed dinosaur on his chest and stared at it.

"Please, Bridge, be safe." He fell asleep with a tear falling down his check.
