ASHLEYS POV

I was helping set up chairs as I watched the boys practicing in the ring for the tournament coming up when I got that feeling something was going to happen. Turning towards the stairs I went to go run down and tell the boys to be careful when I saw Rocky fall over the guard bars and hit the ground hard. I ran as fast as I could when he didn't move. Dropping to the ground next to him I let my small amount of medical knowledge I had from taking care of Kelsey and learning from Dana come forward as I held his head steadily in place so he wouldn't move too much if he had a neck or spinal injury.

I heard a group of gasp and cries for Rocky from behind me and saw Kat and Tanya had arrived with the kids from the orphanage. One boy stuck out of the group and I instantly knew it was Justin a boy Rocky talked about a lot from his time volunteering at the orphanage. Sighing I turned my attention back to Rocky who was coming to and in a serious amount of pain, paying complete attention to him and only him as I talked soothingly to him trying to calm him down and keep him still until the ambulance got here. Adam knelt next to me putting an arm around my shoulders giving me his support to hold strong and not break down in tears as I wanted to at seeing my best friend, my brother, and my protector lying on the ground in pain. Time seemed to fly by as the ambulance arrived and the paramedics worked carefully but quickly at getting Rocky stabilized on the backboard with a neck brace and moving to get him into the ambulance.

"Ashley" it was faint but even over the noise of everyone talking I heard Rocky. Moving quickly I walked alongside the stretcher as the paramedics wheeled it to the ambulance talking softly to my brother giving him my strength to stay strong through his ordeal.

"Are you family?" One of the paramedics asked

"No I'm his best friend" I said not looking up at the paramedic

"I see I'm sorry but only family can ride in with the patient" had replied

"Please sir she's like the sister I never had. I don't want to be alone" Rocky said through pained gasps.

I saw the two paramedics share a glance before nodding and the other one who had not spoken said "alright but if anyone questions you are his sister no questions asked alright?"

"Yes sir. I promise" I said smiling at Rocky before turning to Adam and Tommy who had followed behind us to let them know I was riding in with Rocky before climbing into the ambulance after they loaded Rocky in and secured the stretcher sitting on the bench near his head so he could see me without straining too much and I could gently run my fingers through his short hair soothingly keeping his mind off of the pain.

"You did the right thing in stabilizing his neck young miss" one of the paramedics said breaking the silence in the ambulance. "Not many people would know to stabilize a possible neck injury without causing unneeded pain."

"You learn a lot when taking care of a younger sibling for half your life and having a friend interested in nothing but medicine." I said looking up at the paramedic with a slight smile on my face until the ambulance accidentally hit a bump making Rocky groan in pain again. I returned my complete attention to my brother humming one of his favorite songs softly in order to get him to focus entirely on my voice instead of his pain. I continued to hum his song over and over again until we got to the hospital and he was wheeled away and I was led away by a nurse to the waiting room until further news. I decided to call his parents, who were away on a business trip, to let them know what had happened and promised to call back later when I had more news. It was a while but eventually the nurse that brought me to the waiting room told me I could go see my brother and that he had been moved up to the third floor.

Following the nurses directions I found Rocky's room with no problem. He was in his bed half awake and half asleep do to the pain medication he was given. I smiled as I brushed his short hair away from his forehead placing a kiss on his forehead in a sisterly fashion. I sang a little bit of his song but not much and just sat there talking to him about everything and nothing until I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket from a call.

"You got Ashley." I said because I didn't check the caller id.

"Ash its Adam how is he?" My boyfriend's voice said

"He's asleep right now. Where are you guys?"

"Down at the gift shop. The girls wanted to get him something."

"Alright I'll be right down I kinda want to get him some flowers anyway" I said

"Okay see you in a few" he said and hung up

I stood up from my perch by Rocky's side and gave another kiss on the forehead before telling him I'd be right back and headed towards the door. Once I was out of his room I took a deep breath and went down to meet up with the others at the gift shop. Once there I looked around and spotted everyone over by the balloons. I went over to them to let them know I was there and Adam immediately pulled me into a hug where I just let loose and lost it breaking down in tears crying into his shirt as he lead me over to a bench to sit down as he held me gently. I must have sat crying there for at least half an hour because when I looked up with red eyes everyone was there with balloons of all the ranger colors and Kat had a blue vase shaped like a teddy bear that had a green and yellow ribbon tied around the neck filled with red pink and yellow flowers. Tanya handed me a tissue then handed her balloons to Adam pulling me into the bathroom along with Kat, who had handed off her stuff to Tommy and set the vase on the bench where I was sitting, to wash my face a little bit and rid me of all evidence that I had been crying. After about five minutes I was deemed tear free and we left the bathroom where I saw that Adam was now holding some green balloons as well as Tanya's yellow balloons. As the girls recollected their balloons Tanya picked up the vase and handed it to me.

"Thanks guys" I said smiling gratefully at them for getting me the flowers I had wanted to brighten up Rocky's room.

"No problem Ash you would have done it for any of us if we were in your place" Tanya assured me "Now I think we have an injured blue to go see, don't you agree guys?"

"Yeah come on he's on the third floor" I said as grabbed Adams hand and held onto it as I lead the way up to Rocky's room. I walked in first and spotted a shoe briefly as it disappeared under the sheet but something told me not to mention it to the others, so I just ignored it and saw that Rocky was awake this time around when we entered.

"Hey bro how you feeling?" Adam asked

"Eh I feel okay but this medicine they give you here is something else. I don't even feel the littlest amount of pain" Rocky said happily

"Yeah and I bet it will only be a matter of time before you are hitting on all the pretty young nurses coming in right?" I said

"Oh yeah, that's how I roll you know." Rocky said with his impish grin happily

"Oh we know all right man" Tommy joked "we know"

"So are those balloons and flowers for me or is there another injured ranger somewhere in this hospital?" Rocky said with his joking nature

"Same old Rocky. You know if you weren't injured I would probably slap upside the head but since you are I'm gonna have to settle for annoying you" I said as I settled down next to him and started poking his shoulder with him occasionally swatting at my hand. No one said anything we just sat there laughing amongst ourselves until their morphers beeped signaling Zordon.

"Rangers you must get to the power chamber immediately" Zordons voice boomed over the communicator.

"We're on it Zordon" Tommy answered "Ashley are you staying?"

"Yeah I'm needed here more than at the power chamber" I said

"Alright then see both of you when we get back" Tommy said as they all teleported out of the room.

"Guess I should call your parents back. Huh?" I asked looking at him.

"You didn't call them did you?" I nodded sadly at him

"I did, when I was waiting for news, when they first brought you in. Before you give me the big speech of how your mom is going to be worrying like crazy now, let me explain. I think your parents would rather get the phone call from a friend then a random nurse or something okay?"

"Yeah I guess you're right but I still don't like the fact that my mom is probably worrying like crazy and wanting to leave her meeting early just to be here."

"Hey stop worrying I'm calling right now and you can assure her yourself that you are fine okay?" I asked

"Okay"

"Ashley how is he?" His mom said as she picked up on the first ring

"He's better not in much pain right now but he is quite medicated he is actually awake right now so I'm gonna let you talk to him and then I'll answer any questions about what happened exactly as best I can" I say and hand the phone to Rocky

"Mom?" He said hesitantly

...

"no mom, I'm fine I promise, the doc said it wasn't as serious as it could have been"

...

"No mom, you don't have to do that. You'll be home the day after tomorrow."

...

"I'll be fine, the doc said I can get out of here sometime tomorrow as long as I'm not in a lot of pain"

...

"I know I shouldn't be alone at home after just getting out of the hospital"

...

"I'll ask, I'm not sure." Rocky said as he took the phone away from his ear and looked at me "Hey Ash, mom doesn't want me to be home alone do you think Donna would let me stay at your place until my parents get home?"

"Not sure but I'll ask okay? You keep talking to your mom I'll go call Donna and ask" I say as I got up and headed to the door as Rocky nodded thanking me.

Once in the hallway I headed towards the nurses' station to find where the nearest pay phone was. The nurse filing papers at the desk pointed me around the corner and said there was a wall of pay phones. I thanked her and headed towards where she pointed me taking a few quarters out of my pocket and inserted them into the nearest phone dialing Donna's cell in case she wasn't home.

"This is Donna, whose calling?" She asked

"Donna, it's Ashley, I'm at the hospital with Rocky, I'll explain fully when I get home but would it be possible for him to come over to our place when he gets discharged tomorrow?" I asked

"Well where are his parents, do they know?"

"Yes they know he is talking to his mom right now on my cell phone and his parents are on a business trip until the day after tomorrow and Rocky doesn't want them to leave early just for this because he says it's not serious, but his mom still doesn't want him to be alone right after getting out of the hospital."

"Well in that case I guess so do you know when he will be released tomorrow?"

"No not yet but hopefully I'll know before I leave to head home."

"Well when you are ready to come home text me and I'll come get you it's a long walk otherwise, alright?"

"Kay, I'll see you then, I need to get back to Rocky"

"Alright, bye Ashley"

"Bye Donna" I said and hung up the phone before heading back to Rocky's room. I nodded to him as I entered that it was alright and to tell his mom that he could stay with Donna and I for a night.

"Mom Ash says Donna said it was alright that I stay with them till you and dad get home" Rocky said

...

"Okay mom I'm getting kind of tired I'll talk to you soon okay?"

...

"Love you too mom, bye." He said and hung up

"I guess you explained what happened then?" I say

"Yeah I know about as much as you so what you would have told her wouldn't have been much different than my version." He said

"I guess you're right oh and remember we are posing as biological siblings okay?"

"Yep that much I remember from the ride as well as your singing, you need to sing more, you know that?" He said

"I don't know it's not my thing really at least not in front of people"

"Whatever Ash, whatever you say" he said and then we kind of just let the silence sit there for a moment and all of a sudden there was a bump and you could hear someone say ouch from what sounded like underneath us and I instantly remembered the foot I saw disappearing under the bed.

"Whose there?" Rocky asked and Justin crawled out from under the bed.

"You're the power rangers?" Was the first thing out of his mouth and both Rocky and I looked at each other like uh oh.

"No Justin we are not the power rangers at least I'm not, I just now about them. Rocky was but is out of commission right now." I said after a moment "you can't tell anyone"

"I won't, I promise" he said "what's it like being a power ranger?" He directed towards Rocky.

Rocky and I shared a glance before I leaned into whisper in Rocky's ear "send him in your place I know I heard Zordon say something about new powers so there is no big power transfer or whatever is done"

"He's too young, I can't send him out in that kind of danger" he whispered back

"Rocky trust me on this, this is his destiny if not now then it would happen sometime and sometime soon. The team needs a blue and he's the only available person." I whisper back and he sighs but nods

"I don't like it but you're right why do you have to be right all the time?" He said aloud this time.

"Because I'm awesome that's why. I'll take him to the power chamber myself alright? You just rest."

"Okay but don't take too long it will be suspicious if you aren't here when the doctor comes around"

"Yep I know. Come on Justin time for you to go meet someone" I say as grab ahold of his hand and press the button on my communicator. The feeling of weightlessness overtakes us as we disappear in a beam of light.

"Welcome Justin!" Zordon's booming voice filled the command center making Justin jump and look around even more confusion then before.

"Relax Justin, it's just Zordon. And don't worry I had close to the same reaction you did when I first met him." I said as I stood behind him with my hands on his shoulders

"Ai yi yi yi yi a new friend how wonderful" Justin spun around in confusion again as alpha came out from wherever he was

"And that's Alpha. He's a big robotic teddy bear." I told Justin

"What's going on?" Justin asked nervously

"You have uncovered the secret of the power rangers just as Ashley did, but you have been chosen by Rocky to take his place as the new blue turbo ranger." Zordon said "do you accept the responsibility as a power ranger and promise to follow these three rules: Never escalate a fight, don't use your powers for personal gain, and to keep the secret if the power rangers a secret."

"I accept Zordon" Justin said with not an ounce of nervousness in his voice.

"Very well then follow alpha and he will lead you to your destiny as a power ranger. And Ashley I do believe you need to get back to your brother." I swear I could almost detect laughter in his voice as he directed the last part to me.

"You will do great Justin just remember to listen to the others it will help you out in the long run but other than that you will be a great blue ranger. Make Rocky proud" I said as I teleported out of the command center and back into Rocky's hospital room, and just in time too because not a moment after I got settled back in next to my 'brother' did the doctor come in to check him over and give the final assessment on when he could leave.

"Well according to your chart you haven't been complaining of any pain, how do you feel now young man?" The doctor asked

"I feel great just a little sore but nothing major."

"I see and it says that you are 18 so you can discharge yourself. Well I don't see any reason why you can go home first thing in the morning say 10:00 unless you have any changes during the night but with these types of injuries it is unlikely. And for you young miss visiting hours are over in 30 minutes okay?"

"Yes sir" I replied

"Good I'll see you first thing in the morning then ." The doctor said as he turned and walked out of the room.

"I guess I better text Donna to come get me then huh?" I asked

"Probably be a good idea. Do you know what time it is?" He asked

"Um one second let me finish texting Donna then I'll check." I said "it is 7:00" I said after a moment.

"Ugh I'm going to have too much time on my hands in a room all by myself." He groaned

"Read a couple magazines I'm sure the nurses have a bunch you can read somewhere. Do you want me ask as I'm leaving?"

"Would you that would be amazing not as good as having someone to talk to would be better but reading is still productive right?" He asked

"Yep I'll go ask and then I'm heading out most likely Donna will be waiting once I get to the parking lot."

"Alright, see you tomorrow Ash."

"Of course, see you then." I smiled at him giving him a small kiss on the forehead before leaving. I stopped by the nurse's desk on my way out again to ask for some magazines for Rocky and the nurse said she would get someone to bring him some soon. I thanked her and left for the elevator to go to the first floor so I could go home for the night. As expected I saw Donna's car was already there in a 10 minute parking spot.

"So you said you would tell me what happened?" Donna said questioningly as I opened the car door and got in.

"It was horrible I have never seen him in that much pain and I don't ever want to see anyone in that much pain ever again. He flew right over the safety bar and hit the floor it knocked him unconscious for a couple minutes and all the kids from the orphanage saw what happened. I don't think any of them will ever forget what they saw and today was supposed to be all about them." I said sadly as I looked out the window at the world passing by that had no idea of whatever danger was out there that the rest of my friends were fighting.

"And where are the others? I was expecting to see Adam there at least." Donna asked

"They had to go back and finish cleanup from the tournament that didn't happen. I think they are going to try to get it rescheduled to another day if they find someone to take Rocky's place." I sighed

"Well what about Jason? Can't he do it?"

"No he went out of town to meet up with an old friend who was in the area. He's not supposed to be back until sometime next week with it being summer vacation already for the seniors and I think they want to do it as soon as possible so everyone else that came to participate will still be in the area hopefully." I said as I turned away from the window getting too depressed at thinking up scenarios that my friends could be facing.

"Well as soon as we get home I think we need to get the place cleaned up a bit seeing as we are breaking your friend out of the hospital. It will probably be hard for him to climb stairs so I'm going to suggest that we bring the cot out of the back room and bring it into the living room. Does that sound good to you, and then I guess the two of you can camp out downstairs since I trust you not to do anything..."

"DONNA... He's like my brother and even if he wasn't I'm with Adam and I hope to always be with him and no I do not need the TALK I got that years ago from Karen." I said

"Alright alright ... I said I trust you and I've never had any reason not to especially when it comes to boys."

"Ugh can we please change the topic. How about summer vacation I was kind of hoping that maybe I could have a friend come stay with us or maybe even go stay with her?"

"Dana?"

"Yea how did you know?"

"Well she is the only other friend you talk about other than the ones here. Well we'll see, talk to Dana and see what would work best for her parents and then I'll talk to them and we'll make the final decision but I see no harm in the matter in fact I'd be more than happy to let you spend time with your friends."

"Thanks Donna you're the best, oh and umm it's not parents for her it's just her dad her mom died when she was very little."

"The poor girl she must have a hard time not having a female figure to look up to."

"She does sometimes but then she remembers that at least she has her dad unlike me and all lot of other kids around the world."

"Well that is definitely a way to look at life, always on the bright side."

"Yep she sure is one of a kind"

"And so are you Ashley not many foster kids I've had are as happy with their life like you are. You could be all depressed and stuff but instead you choose to make the most out of your situation."

"Thanks Donna not many people are nice to me like you have been so it is much easier here to make the best out of my situation here than it was in some of the other towns I was in" by this time we were pulling into the driveway and I was more than ready to get out and stretch my legs after that car ride and my day spent sitting.

"Now then let's work on getting that cot downstairs and some padding for the chairs outside on the back porch."

"You got it, do you want me to start with the chairs and then come up and help with the cot?"

"Actually how about you eat dinner first cause if I'm correct you probably haven't eaten anything since breakfast, right?"

"Yeah I guess food just wasn't top on my list of priorities today."

"I thought so, you go get changed I'll go make you a sandwich, deal?"

"Deal." I said as I turned and ran towards the stairs. Running into my room I got changed into black workout shorts and a yellow tank top that had flowers decorating the bottom edge happy to be out of my jeans before running down to the kitchen where Donna was just finishing up a grilled cheese sandwich for me. Grabbing a glass from the cupboard I poured myself a glass of milk before sitting down at the table with the sandwich in front of me.

"I'm going to go make sure there are no boxes in the way of the cot so once your done come upstairs and we can work on getting that monster down here okay?" Donna said as she headed towards the stairs

"Okay I'll be up in a minute."

"Take your time, don't rush yourself, okay?"

"Yep" I said as I took out my phone once she had disappeared up the stairs. I opened my pictures and found on of me an Adam that Rocky had taken when he stole my phone. "Where are you?... Are you safe?... What about everyone else? Are they safe? Did Justin find you? How is he?" I whispered this to myself. I always worried about them when they were at battle but this time I have no idea where they were and I couldn't be in the power chamber watching to make sure they were safe. Sighing I put away my phone and finished my sandwich so I could help Donna get that cot downstairs.

"Just in time Ashley I just got all these boxes moved to the side so now let's strategize do you want to be in front and guide the bed down?"

"Sure" I said as I tried to hide my sadness from Donna.

"Okay what's wrong, are you worried about Rocky or is there something else going on I need to know about?"

"Nothing's wrong I promise. I guess I'm just tired from everything today." I said hoping she would buy the lie.

"If you're sure but know you can talk to me Ashley that's what I'm here for, okay?"

"Yep now how about we try to get this thing down stairs."

"Sounds like an ideal plan to me. Ready?"

"Ready" I said and without much struggle we got the cot out of the room but the tricky part was getting it downstairs without any injuries to us or the cot, but we managed and once it was downstairs I ran back up to the linen closet to get some sheets, pillowcases and a lightweight blanket which was ironically blue. With those in tow I then went to the guest room and grabbed the pillows off the bed. I replaced the pillow cases so I could throw the old ones in the laundry chute by the upstairs bathroom as I went by. Coming back downstairs I found that Donna already had the bed set out, and could hear her on the back porch getting the chair pillows out for tomorrow, so I started to make the bed and finished at the same time as Donna.

"Okay well I guess that's that. How about you get ready for bed early you had a pretty stressful day and another one ahead."

"I think I may take you up on that but before I do I might call Dana."

"Sounds good but not too late we need to be ready to get the hospital early."

"Okay, see you in the morning Donna."

"See you in the morning." Donna replied and with that I took off up the stairs and into my room. By this time it was close to 9 so I hoped Dana would still be awake. Punching in her number I counted the rings and was just about to hang up when a breathless Dana answered the phone.

"Hey Ash... Sorry I didn't answer right away I was cleaning my room and I seemed to have misplaced my phone in the black hole under my bed."

"It's okay. So you still haven't gotten that mess under there cleaned up?" I teased

"Well I did but then stuff just got piled back up under there and I'm going to tackle that again tomorrow. So how are things with you girly?"

"Wow change of subject much?"

"Yeah sorry, but you haven't answered my question."

"Well to be honest today wasn't the best... Rocky got hurt pretty badly he fell over the edge of the ring during the teams practice before the tournament. He was knocked unconscious and in some serious pain when he came to."

"Is he alright though, did you do like I taught you and stabilize his neck as a precaution?"

"He is fine and yes I did. The paramedics even complemented me for knowing just what to do."

"Well good I'm glad he is fine and that I managed to get something through that thick skull of yours! You are almost impossible to teach!"

"Hey don't be hating me just cause I'm energetic."

"Oh trust me I'm not I'm glad it's you with the energy not me I don't think dad could handle it if I was as crazy as you!"

"Yeah yeah yeah you're just saying that cause you don't know how awesome it is to have endless amounts of energy."

"Uh huh, I'm sure it is awesome to have the energy, I sure could use it with cleaning my room."

"Okay whatever you say. Hey I have to go soon, Donna wants me up early so we can go pick up Rocky from the hospital. But um I called to tell you Donna said as long as it's okay with your dad it's okay with her for us to hang out this summer!"

"Sweet okay I'll ask dad in the morning. I think he already went to bed already, but umm do you wanna try to come here or I go there?"

"You come here probably so you can meet everyone and I can give you the grand tour of Angel grove. That and I have cheer practice a couple times over the summer." I ended the last part kind of sheepishly

"By a couple how often do you mean?" Dana asked skeptically

"Once a week unless we are told otherwise."

"Well that wouldn't be too bad I guess, and if I get to be friends with your new friends I could hang out with them for however long you are at practice."

"Yep and don't worry I know they will love you just like I do, your just awesome like that."

"I hope so, I don't exactly make friends that easily." Dana said sounding kind of sad

"Hey you made friends with me so you will definitely make friends with them." I said sounding confident in myself

"Oh don't get a big ego, you're not that hard to get along with the only thing that pushes people away is the fear of you leaving."

"And my energy." I laughed this part

"Okay maybe a little of that too." She started laughing as well. "So do you want dad to call Donnas house phone when he has made his decision?"

"Uhh... Yeah that may be best. You still have the number right?"

"Yep. Well I'll let you go, you need to sleep missy. Dad will probably call sometime tomorrow to talk to Donna."

"Kay... Night Day."

"Night Ash." She said and with that I hung up and finished getting into bed. After plugging my phone into my charger and setting it on my bedside table I made sure my alarm clock was set for 7:30 and finally I shut my light off settling in for a restless night no doubt.

I was correct it was around midnight when I woke up for the first time. I had had a nightmare of what happened today only Rocky was in worse condition than he really was. The second time I woke up it was about 3:00 in the morning and I had a horrible nightmare of Adam and everyone else being seriously injured or in Adams case killed. I finally decided after about 10 minutes of staring at my wall after the second nightmare that I wasn't going to fall back asleep so I turned on my light and pulled out my diary and began to write about my day. I wrote about everything what really happened, my dreams, and how worried I was and still am. I just kept writing until around 6:30 when I finally called it quits and turned off my alarm clock and headed downstairs to the living room to watch some TV. I was still tired so I curled up on the cot as I watched some of the early morning cartoons. I must have fallen back asleep because next thing I knew Donna was waking me up. Looking around I saw that it was 8:30 almost time to go get Rocky.

"Couldn't sleep Ashley?" Donna asked once I was sitting up straight

"No I kept having these horrible nightmares" I said

"Do you want to talk about it?"

"Not really I kind of just want to forget about it altogether."

"I understand and I'm not going to force you to talk but if you ever want to talk about it I'm always all ears."

"Thanks Donna really. I think I'm going to go get dressed, I'll be right back" I said as I pulled myself up from the bed and made my way to the stairs.

"Okay I'll go get breakfast ready for us and then we can go jailbreak Rocky" Donna called after me

"Sounds like a plan... Should we swing by his house so he can have some clean clothes?"

"Yes I was planning on it, you know where the DeSantos keep their extra key right?"

"Yep like always it's in the plant by the door."

"Alright go get changed so we can leave as soon as we have breakfast it's already 8:30 and if we want to get there before he is discharged we should leave within the next 15 to 20 minutes so you have time to grab him some clothes."

Fifteen minutes later I was changed, eaten breakfast and was on my way out to the car where Donna already was. The drive to Rocky's house was silent and as soon as the car stopped I was out of the car and headed towards the front door to get the spare key when my cell rang. Seeing Adams number I answered as fast as I could while getting the key into the lock.

"Adam! What happened is everyone okay? Did Justin find you?" I asked in one breath as I held the phone between my shoulder and my ear so I could have both hands free to grab the stuff Rocky needs.

"Calm down Ash everyone's fine for the most part just minor bruising and such."

"What do you mean my minor bruising and such? Adam Park you better tell me what happened right this instant!" I exclaimed as I entered Rocky's bedroom and went to his closet where he had a couple extra bags, I grabbed one and grabbed the essentials from his dresser drawers.

"It might be better to tell you in person so you can fuss over us all you want but for right now I'm just saying we are all in one piece and yes Justin did find us, he did pretty good for his first time as well. You should be proud, you helped pick quite the new blue."

"Good and fine if you must tell me everything tomorrow at school when you fill Rocky in at the graduation preparation because I can already tell you I'm going to have my hands full with him today so there will be no way that he will miss the preparations."

"Why not today?"

"Because today you are going to be resting. I can only imagine that you are tired and I'm sure your parents are wondering where you were so you better have some explanation. And also I can only deal with one tired, injured or just plain cranky ranger at a time and I have a feeling Rocky will be all three of those things, so spare you girlfriend and get some rest, okay? You can call me later after you have slept some and hopefully I will be with Rocky we can talk then."

"Alright, you win again. How do you always do that?"

"Do what?" I asked as I entered the bathroom and grabbed Rocky's toothbrush toothpaste and a comb

"Persuade people to do the things you want them to do."

"I don't know guess it's just my awesome ability. Get some sleep I gotta get back out to Donna she's waiting on me to get some of Rocky's clothes for him."

"Oh I bet he's going to love that, having had his little sister to through his clothes."

"Yeah well he will have to deal cause there is no way I will let him wear what he wore yesterday again today and tomorrow and no, before you say it, he wouldn't be able to wear my clothes I'm half his size so I doubt that he could even get one of my stretchable tank tops on."

"I don't even want to think about that. Tell him that we hope he is feeling better and we will see him tomorrow."

"Will do. Love you Adam."

"Love you too. See you later"
