Note: So so sorry for not being able to update. I've been very very busy these days. As soon as I healed of my illness I backed to school and High School is getting difficult ( at least for me). So, with homework and personal things I couldn't update. But now I'm going to do all I can to update as soon as possible. But really, sorry guys.

Anyways, here is a new chapter so I hope you enjoy it!


"Finally, we finished" Jayden spluttered as he took swiped away the sweater of his forehead. He stretched his back and neck and turned to Mike and Kevin. "Is this really how a tend looks like?"

Mike shrugged his shoulders and Kevin nodded his head "According to the instructions and if we follow them well, this is how it needs to look"

"Doesn't matter how it should or shouldn't seems like" Mike said "While it gives us a roof where to sleep, I think it's great! For you?"

"I guess so" Jayden agreed.

"Yeah, whatever" Kevin sighed and took a seat on one of the chairs they had brought.

Finally the team Samurai had made it to "Sunny Races", or at least it was the name the owner of the place had said as soon as they arrived there. He had selected them a place where they could join a couple of days companied with nature and fresh air so the rangers could forget the troubles they had gotten into.

But when they stepped there, the day was a little hot but fortunately there was a fresh wind running and because Jayden, Mike and Kevin needed to make up a tent were the seven samurai could sleep comfortably, it was a little more than a struggle, this way and that with the ropes and stakes. But finally they could finish it, bringing up the tent. Or an intent of a tent.

"Guys, have you seen Antonio?" Jayden asked looking around him.

"He said he was going with the girls" Kevin answered "They wanted to take a look around and see what else is here"

"Doesn't matter, they're coming" Mike pointed out to the path his fiancé and friends had followed to take a walk. "How's the place? Something to have fun?"

"Fun? This place is freaking awesome!" Antonio threw his arms to the air.

"It's just because they have a lake" Lauren smirked and adjusted the cap she was wearing to protect from the sun "But it's really beautiful"

"And they have something you'll love, Mike" Mia turned to the green ranger

"What is it?" Mike asked

"They have motorcycles"

"Really?! Antonio I agreed with you!" Mike turned to the gold ranger and they started talking about how amazing this time out could be.

So, meanwhile, the others continued talking about the next activities they could do together.

"And Kevin, you're not behind" Emily wrapped her arm around her friend. "They have a swimming pool"

These words were music to him and made it to smile. Kevin scratched the back if his neck "Well, then I..I think we need to try it, right? I mean I can teach you guys if you want how to swim or just play in water"

"Yes, it sounds cool" Mia smiled "And with the beautiful weather….it's going to be awesome!"

"Yeah, yeah" Lauren smiled. She was a little unsecure about the water but the idea of hanging out with friends and has nothing less than fun was great.

"So, what are we waiting for?" Emily said excitedly taking from her bag a towel. "Come on, guys"

"But now?" Jayden frowned "We barely arrived, we should rest at least, relax a lit-…."

"You can relax at home" Emily chuckled and smacked Jayden in the chest with her towel.

"Aw! Well I think so, but…"

"No more buts, let's go"

"Just let us take our things, Em"

Lauren took her bag, just as the others to head to the swimming pool. Antonio when saw his friends saying they were going to swim, growled because he wanted to fish as soon as possible but accepted his friend's suggest. They had many days to leave the place and many days to fish.

As they were walking to the pool, Mike and Emily were discussing some things; Kevin was telling Mia how good teacher he was in water and Antonio was overhearing. So that left Jayden and Lauren walking in the end of the group.

Both siblings were walking in an uncomfortable silence as they think in their heads.

For Lauren, as things took the course, practically life was starting to make sense to her. Although it always had, the sense that she only had was to follow the plan of someone else-his father's plan-but this time it was the opposite because she could do and put her own plan. She decided once and for all forget about what had happened, both with her and her brother, and their friends, and forget not meant to leave it as if nothing had happened, but as something that had already happened. So it was her turn to go ahead and do the best of her. It was her time to have fun and what better than with the people she appreciated.

But Jayden was another story.

Lauren wrapped one arm around him while she carried her bag with the other arm. "Why so silence, Jay?"

Jayden looked to his sister and shook his head "Nothing"

"Perhaps I haven't been with you in a long time but I know something is bothering you. I don't see what it is cause…well, what is it?"

"It's nothing" Jayden assured his sister "I'm fine"

"You're not a good liar. Come on, you can talk to me about anything"

"Nothing, I swear" Jayden shook his shoulders a little to get free of Lauren's arm and she got the hint.

Maybe his brother was frustrated about something and even if Jayden hadn't said a word about anything, Lauren knew what it was.
He was worried, maybe afraid of what the future would bring to him but she needed to make a sense on Jayden's head. He had to understand that he could not continue thinking the same thing every day, that if it continued only it'd increase his fears and doubts. It was good to have in mind that not everything would be perfect and that not everything would be best, but lock you thinking about something that was not in your disposal handling was a wasting time.

"You know…"Lauren brushed her hair away from her face and looked to her brother "everything's going to be okay. What needs to happened will happen, and what not, not. Simple. I also took a little time find out, I think long trips give you a good time for reflection. Nobody knows what will happen with our lives, nobody. For example, look at them…" She pointed to others "…they also don't know. Emily and Mike are freaked out now, because they never planned anything. And they are fine, just as the others…"

"But..."

"You need to move out, Jayden. Because if you keep your head in something that it's impossible to know, you're going to get mad. And everything happening around you will mean nothing. Let things happen and we'll see what's next"

Jayden nodded "But still…it's…it's kind of scary, you know…" Jayden took a look around and sighed "I was the leader, Lauren. I always made the calls, made the right choices and…chose the next movements. Whatever I did, whatever I led, it was something that would do some consequence in the world. Good or bad…But now… If I choose something, good or bad, it only will benefit me or damage me. The others won't have any problems. The world won't care. Now these are my decisions but for me. For no one else."

"And that's nice, Jay" Lauren smiled warmly "Because that means you're feeling free. You have nothing to worry about. Things will happen, yes, but we need to help them. We're the ones building up our futures and we're going to help it to be better"

"And how to know what's better?"

"You don't know. It's called hope. You only trust in yourself"

Jayden looked down and nodded. He wasn't sure how Lauren had figured it out but if she could, why couldn't he? Maybe if he stopped thinking and stared acting, his doubts would be answered.

"Amigos, ¿vienen o qué?" Antonio said turning to the Red Rangers. "Están muy lejos"

"I think I need to practice my Spanish" Lauren gestured.

"Just, hurry up" Jayden chuckled and ran to his friends.
