Desiree slumped against her chair as the wedding and reception was over and done with, the ninjas had dispersed and some even began to talk to others seeing as the schools were closed to celebrate the union of the Wind and Ice Academies. Angelica and Cam were off to their honeymoon, and she was happily blocked because she didn't want to be a third wheel in that part of today.

"You seem tired."

Desiree forced her eyes open and blinked when she realized who had spoken Sensai Hikari. "What gave you that idea?"

"Only that you put together a wedding that should have taken months." Hikari answered, "So what's going on with Master Mao and your training?"

Desiree looked down at the ground. "Master Mao is no longer apart of the physical world." she stood up and didn't look her former Sensai in the eye, "Thanks to you, I'm on a team of misfits again, who wouldn't know how to get along. If i tied them in a bundle."

"Dai Shi escaped?" Hikari gasped

Desiree spun and stared in disblief at Hikari "How do you know about Dai Shi?"

"The question you should have asked is how do I know about the Pài Zhuǎ." Hikari answers, then pulls up her sleeve to reveal the Order tatoo.

Desiree didn't know how to process this bit of information,

"I'll let you know what my spirit is when you really need me, but that is for another day." Hikari states, then sat down besides her heir to the Fire Academy. She wanted to cry, she wanted to vent. "Master Mao was my year-mate when I entered into the order, we were close almost as siblings. So close in fact that I named him, my son's godfather. How did he pass?"

Desiree explained about the Forbidden room and Jarrod being overtaken by Dai Shi.

Hikari looked up, "I think you got more explaining to do, and I have a few students to stop from getting into a massive fight, we'll talk again soon."

Desiree followed Hikari's gaze and saw her parents coming her way, both sets.

"No need to explain about everything," Aya states, "I've already taken care of that."

"Thanks, because I want to go to bed then back to Ocean Bluff." Desiree replies,

"She's what?!" Kira yelled as yellow sound waves appeared,

Desiree stood up and turned to leave,

"Get back here!" Shane shouted as the former Ninja and Dino rangers just found out that Desiree was back in action. "We got to talk about this!"

"Mom, Dad. I'll call you later. But i got to fly." Desiree states and ran for her life.
