A/N: Well guys, after 8 years, this story is finally coming to an end! Thanks to everyone that stuck it out from the beginning to the end. I am really happy that I've finally seen this through and finished it. Again, I'm incredibly grateful to everyone who reviewed, favorited, followed, and went through this whole journey with me!


"I promise guys, I'm not going to break." Tori laughed as she watched all of the guys leaned forward to get up to help her. All she wanted was to grab a quick drink. She knew that it would take the guys some time to get back into their normal but she kept reassuring them that she was okay. It had been six days since she had woken up and she'd gotten stronger each day. She was still exhausted and was going to need much more time before she was ready to fight Lothor again but she was grateful to be alive. Lothor had been quiet lately. The rangers were incredibly grateful for the temporary peace. It was giving everyone time to recover both physically and mentally from the ordeal with Motodrone. Blake's back had turned into scabs and Dustin's neck bruising was starting to fade. They had spent almost the entire day just watching old, cheesy movies and having a good laugh at the bad comedy.

"We just care." Blake shrugged his shoulders, trying to play off his worry. The imagine of Tori dying still haunted his nightmares. He saw the flat line and the seizures and constantly woke up in a cold sweat. He could still hear the sound of the ventilator hissing. He shuddered before looking up at Tori who was smiling down at him. Blake returned the smile. He couldn't express how happy he was to be able to see Tori smiling again. He couldn't wait to make every memory in his brain one that contained that smile of Tori's.

"I know." Tori turned and headed for the kitchen. She glanced back and smiled even bigger. Hunter was showing Blake something on his phone, probably the latest text or photo from Kelly. Their relationship had really taken off and Tori was happy about that. Shane and Dustin were play fighting over the last bit of the popcorn. Cam was rolling his eyes and pretending that he thought it was immature but everyone knew he loved every bit of it.

"What's for dinner?" Dustin called after Tori jokingly. She turned back and gave him a pretend death stare.

"Whatever you get your butt in here and make!" Tori taunted back. She was definitely not known for her culinary skills in the kitchen. She had never been able to cook and swore she could burn water. She grabbed a drink and headed back towards the couch. She got settled back underneath Blake's arm and they all got settled back together to watch another movie.


"Please tell me I'm not dreaming?" Dustin stared at the rubble in front of him. He wasn't sure he could stand it if he woke up and Lothor was still alive. They had fought so long and hard to kill him. Lothor seemed to have an endless supply of monsters but they had finally worked through them all and Lothor had come down himself to fight the rangers but he had underestimated their strength. The rangers had never given up that they would win and they finally did win.

"We, we did it!" Shane was finally starting to come out of his shock. They had finally defeated their enemy. All of their schoolmates and the ninjas had been freed from Lothor's ship. He felt like he had been fighting for this for so long, now that it had happened, it didn't feel real.

"We did it!" Hunter exclaimed after a few more minutes of stunned silence. They let out a loud cheer and exchanged hugs. There were not words to explain how they felt. He couldn't wait to go tell Kelly that there would be no more random running out of the shop or middle of the night fights. Shane was grateful that he could tell his brother that he had won the fight. He had started to think about his future in the past few days and he hoped to talk to Sensei about a job at the Ninja Academy. He hoped to keep training future ninjas. Dustin, Blake, and Hunter were all ready to be more serious with their motocross careers. They had fielded multiple offers from sponsors and they were ready to pursue them.

"I love you." Blake held Tori tightly in his arms and kissed her. "I want to spend the rest of my life with you." He had put the ring in his pocket a few days earlier and had been waiting for the right time. He knelt down on his knee as the other rangers gathered around the two. Everyone had huge grins, knowing how hard Blake had worked to save up for the ring and how much time he had invested in looking to make sure it was the perfect ring. "Will you marry me?"

"Oh my God, Blake!" Tori covered her mouth with her hand, trying to hide her shock. "Yes!" She said without a second of hesitation. She had known for a long time that she wanted to spend the rest of her life with Blake but she hadn't been sure if he felt the same way. "Yes!" She squealed as Blake slid the ring onto her finger and got to his feet to kiss her. There was nothing else she could have asked for in this moment. She was surrounded by friends who felt more like family and felt like she was on top of the world.


"Do you take Tori Hanson to be your wife?" Sensei looked at Blake for his answer. Blake had decided to wear a traditional tuxedo. They'd thrown together a very quiet wedding with just a few guests in attendance. Tori's mom, dad, and sister sat together with a few of Tori's friends. There were a few of Blake's friends along with the ranger team and that was it. Neither of them had wanted anything too lavish so they had decided to get married right on the beach. It was a simple wedding but that was all that they had wanted.

"Absolutely!" Blake answered so quickly, it almost overlapped the end of Sensei's question. He just wanted Tori to be his wife. There was a round of quiet chuckling before Sensei turned to look at Tori. They were all standing underneath a beautiful awning that was covered in flowers in all shades of blue to represent the two rangers.

"Tori, do you take Blake Bradley to be your husband?" He grinned as he took in her happy face. She was positively glowing. Blake couldn't stop staring at Tori. Her hair flowed down her back with blue flowers woven into the strands of her hair. Her dress was white with blue lace across the midsection to represent her water powers.

"Yes!" She had a huge smile as she tried to hold back her tears as she squeezed Blake's hands tighter. She took in the faces in the crowd. Hunter and Kelly were leaned into each other, Hunter's arm slung over Kelly's shoulder and they were holding hands. Shane and Dustin were matching her huge smile as they watched two of their best friends get married. Her family was scrunched together, looking content and happy as they looked at her.

"You may now kiss the bride!" Sensei laughed as he spoke the words. Blake didn't waste a second as he reached for Tori's face with both of his hands and caressed Tori's face as he kissed her. Every time he kissed her, he felt sparks go off. Blake had always wondered if there was anyone that would be in his life but with Tori, he just knew. His whole world was complete now that his forever was with Tori.
