The fog was frustrating. Sarah couldn't quite understand what was happening.

She was in a small house with a woman. She was bound, she knew that, and for some reason she couldn't speak. All a suddenly, a bug became a man and he started speaking with the woman who had abducted her. She held an object in her hand, a weapon like a knife or… a gun? Then as soon as she put it down, the bug man charged at her, taking her down and Sarah found herself once again being abducted. This time, it was the bug-man taking her. He brought her to a giant, red robot and then set her down on the floor as people crowded around her.

"Sarah?" the bug-man said and removed whatever was on her mouth. "Sarah, do you know who I am?"

"W-Wh-Where… Where am-m-m I?"

"You're in the Zord," the bug-man told her. "You're safe now."

"Sarah!" she heard again and this time a woman, younger than the other one, came near her. She put her arms around Sarah and held her tight.

So Sarah screamed and tried to push the woman off her, but she was still bound. She couldn't move. She was helpless. The woman let her go and backed off as the bug-man gently grabbed her arms.

"D-D-D-Don't tou-touch-touch me," Sarah said. The bug-man let her go and nodded.

"Levi's behind you," he said. "He'll cut you lose, okay?"

"D-Don't t-t-touch-ch me," Sarah repeated. The bug-man nodded.

"We're only cutting the tape," he said and then, just like that, Sarah felt her arms were free. She tried to push the bug-man, but he grabbed her.

"Sarah, settle down," he said. "You're safe now."

"Will she be okay, Mick?" the woman asked.

"Brody, you want to get us back?" Mick looked to someone behind Sarah, prompting her to turn her head and see there were more people behind her. One of them had a weapon.

"Gun," she said and her eyes widened as she tried to move away, but bumped into the bug man. He put his hands on her shoulders and then spoke to the man.

"Levi, set the knife the down. Sarah, you're safe," he said.

Sarah grabbed her head. Knife, not gun. The man, the cowboy, was holding a knife.

"My… my head h-h-h- pain."

"We're going to take you home, okay," the bug-man promised her.

The only upside to being stuck in traffic was that by the time Jenny finally made it back to the city, Sarah was home safe. Hayley had called again to say they had brought her to the Ranger base and to meet them all there.

Jenny went around to the workshop at the back, where Mick was waiting for her alone. She remembered the last time she had seen Mick and how frustrated she had been with him because he had let Sarah travel back in time, just so she could watch her father die. A part of her felt poorly for being so quick to assume Mick hadn't done everything he could. She knew through Hayley that, this time, Mick had been the one to help Sarah.

"Is she okay?" she asked. She wanted to apologize, but more than that, she wanted to know about Sarah. When she had left her home that morning, she had been disappointed Sarah hadn't come back in time to say goodbye to her grandparents. If she had only known what really happened, she would have been the first to track her down. She would have been the one to pull Sarah out of the cottage instead of Mick.

It was funny how as soon as she earns her in-laws' trust that she can look after Sarah, something like this happens.

Mick's answer was to shake his head, "Kelly said she had at least one seizure last night. There's likely been more."

"More? More than one?"

"There's some damage to her brain," Mick said. "My scans are detecting some abnormalities. She's been shocked…"

"Shocked?"

"There's light burning around her neck. When we found her, she had a dog collar, like the ones used for training."

"A shock collar?"

"It likely triggered more seizures and furthered the damage to her brain. She's confused and stuttering and…"

Jenny felt her knees weaken and she swayed. Mick grabbed her and sat her down on a stack of tires.

"Sarah and I have been working on a device. It's our brain-block project, for when we're stuck on ideas with weapons and stuff. It's supposed to help treat injuries and get the Rangers back on the battle field sooner."

"A what?"

"It's not operational yet, but RedBot's doing his best with Sarah's blueprints and we're hoping the Nexus Prism will give us a hand."

"That big star?"

"The pink Power Star chose Sarah for a reason. We have to have faith that it will help her."

"But you're not sure?"

"If Sarah was hurt in battle, while morphed, I'd be very sure the Prism and Star would help," Mick nodded his head. "But since this was personal… it's possible Sarah will no longer be able to be the pink Ranger. The injury may be too severe and… Mrs. Thompson, we got there as quickly as we could but… I'm afraid by the time we arrived, it was already too late."

Jenny covered her face as she broke down into tears. Mick put his hand on her back.

"Mrs. Thompson, if you need a minute, I can sit with Sarah," he offered. "But, when you're ready, I think she could really benefit from seeing you."

"I… I should see her," Jenny said and wiped her eyes, but Mick shook his head.

"Mrs. Thompson, if you need a moment to collect yourself, take it," he said. "But Sarah needs someone strong right now. I can wait with her, until you've gathered up your strength. I'll take good care of her."

"Where are the others?"

"They're in the base."

"So everyone can see her but me?"

"You can visit her, but not like this," Mick said. "Take five minutes, then you can join us. I'll take care of her."

"Please," Jenny nodded and let Mick return inside the base. When he walked inside, the room was quiet, though he could sense the tension. The Rangers were all in one corner except for Sarah, who was on the other side of the room, muttering to herself.

"She got mad," Brody said to Mick and he nodded his head. He walked over to Sarah slowly.

"Sarah?"

"S-S-Stop," she growled at him, the frustration still very evident on her face.

"I know it's hard," he said. "But take a few deep breathes, okay?"

"I-I-I don't nee-need to breathe."

"Humour me," Mick said and then modeled for her. Sarah didn't follow, but at least she wasn't getting angrier.

"I w-w-want my d-d-d my father," Sarah told him.

"He's not here," Mick said. "But your mother is right outside."

"Mom's a who-whore."

"Your step-mother," Mick corrected.

"I want m-my da-dad."

"Sarah, he can't come. But your step-mother will be here in just a few minutes and…"

"I want my dad!" Sarah screamed and threw her Power Star across the room, into the Prism where it stayed. Mick and the Rangers looked to it worriedly, but Kelly limped over and pulled it out. She offered it to Sarah.

"Keep this, please," she begged. Sarah grabbed it, threw it out of Kelly's hand and then pushed her over.

"G-G-Get-t-t Get ow-out… Get- Go away!" she screamed. Kelly crawled backwards as Mick stepped between her and Sarah. Kelly then went to pick up the Power Star.

"Kelly, you… you," Brody looked to Kelly, then the Prism, then back to Kelly. "You just pulled out the Power Star."

"So?" Kelly frowned.

"It was in the Prism," Levi told her. "The only people to ever pull a Power Star out of the Prism are… Rangers."

"Yeah, Sarah is a Ranger," Kelly nodded.

"No you pulled it out."

"For Sarah."

"Kelly, the Star was inside the Prism, just like when we first found it," Brody said. "And Galvanax had almost every warrior in the galaxy try to grab it and no one succeeded."

"What do you mean?" Kelly asked.

"Let me try something," Calvin said and he took his own Power Star from his pocket. He threw it as hard as he could at the Prism but unlike with Sarah's throw, his bounced off the Prism and landed on the floor.

Kelly's eyes suddenly widened. "Oh… shit…" she looked down to the Power Star. "Am I the pink Ranger?"

She looked to her friends, who all nodded slowly. She looked to her Power Star again, "FUCK!"
