Hey Guys hope you liked it! I also hope that it made sense... I can't remember if I mentioned to you all before but I recently got a consussion and it's making somethings hard to remember so I'm not sure if I prevousily made Ice a pervert or if that was just some weird dream of mine. Haha! Well I hope that you guys like it and I hope that my writing is improving! Please Favourite Shogun to show your support and review as well!

P.S I will be going to past chapters to edit them and make them better, I will not be changing much of the content, but I will be adding some stuff and making it better and what not!

"K-... Kate...?" He said resting his hands on her shoulders lightly rubbing the sides of them with his thumb as he tried to figure out what exactly he had missed.

Kate, realizing that he was there beside her quickly moved her hands up to her eyes to wipe away the streams of tears that were produced. The rubbing made the under part of her eyes raw and begin to become red and swollen. Embarrassed she turned her head and tried to act like she hadn't been crying but the tears just kept coming, one after each endless other. It was a cold chill that warm evening that swept across the beach as she looked up. She looked... She looked dead. Like something had swooped down and sucked the hope directly out of her. Her mouth hung slightly open, just barley enough to breath since her nose was stuffed, her eyes were glazed over with pre-decedent tears. Two shiny streaks stretched across her red swollen cheek as a created path for tears to travel. He breathing was calm, it was erie. This made him want to tremble, seeing her like this. What was he to do? There was nothing that he could do besides watch.

She took in a slow stuttering breath before speaking in a monotones voice out looking at the sea, "First... They take my parents... Now... Now they want my Grandfather..." Saying this broke her gaze and facial expression; turning it into a pained look down diagonal from where she was looking before, "Soon..." She wasn't sure howto continue, "Soon... I-... I will have no one..." She looked up at the flame haired boy slowly into his eyes, "And when I have no one... I will have nothing to lose..." She muttered.

Why... Why was it that everything that hurt her was his fault. His Jaw tightened and he stood taking her up with him, "Lets go get you cleaned up..." was the only thing that he as able to scavenge from his mind. He took his hands under her arms and pulled her up to her feet and held her there in a small embrace resting his cheek against the top of her head. He couldn't promise anything. He couldn't promise the safety of Hastings. He was the one that had to kill him. He let out a small sigh with the words in a tine softer than a whisper, "Come on..." and he began to slowly walk with her back to the base.

Upon their arrival, Barlow and Hastings had still been interrogating the grunt that they had captured. He let no one phase him as he helped her and he lead her directly into her bunk. There, he laid her down and pulled the blankets up over her and pushed the hair away from her face. He still stayed completely silent, he had no idea what to say to her. Instead he stood and took steps back until her was out of her room.

Crawford was leaning up against the wall and had been watching the two the entire time, "What's up with Kate...?" He asked. This time insetead of trying to make snide remarks or make fun of either of them he sounded completely genuine.

Keith looked at the ranger blankly and shook his head, "She's tired.. leave her alone..." He stated while walking past him. He then made his way back towards the entrance. There he placed his hand on the door and paused releasing his breath before completely exiting the building. He made his way back to Nikki Beach where he had found Kate and planted himself in the same spot that she was sitting in. Buizel sat, still perched, on his shoulder and trying to comfort her partner.

He had heard rummaging in the growth of the small forest behind him. He then looked to see three figures and he knew who each of them were. Ready to invite his old friends over he realised that Buizel. She knew nothing about this... He couldn't let her find out... He looked up at the pokemon on his shoulder and scratched the under part of her chin, "Why don't you go see how Kate is doing... I'll be fine by myself out here..." He said grabbing the pokemon and placing her on the ground sending her off on her way.

He looked up at the figures again and his face faded into a soft smile. Lavana matched his expression and went to run out to him but was held back by Heath. Her smile soon faded into a look of sadness. The trio walked out at the same time. Ice had crossed arms and heath held Lavana's arm tightly.

Keith, confused by the meeting shook his head and still had a slight smiled plastered onto his face, "W-What's wrong...?" He asked.

Ice let out a soft chuckle, "It was an order from your father to come out here to see you. We have been watching you Keith." He said running his fingers through his soft thick blue hair, "We've seen all the opportunities and hesitations keeping you from your mission. You father made us aware of a promise you two made. He told us to pass along this message, 'It looks like you're getting too distracted, you know what happens when you get distracted."

Hearing that made Keith cringe. His father said that he would kill her just to get her out of the way. he nodded, "I understand, but that is not my plan. I was told to come up with my own strategy. When Blake Hall begins to take over Altru Tower that's when the rangers will revolt against it and try to take over the tower. When they finally reach the top, there, I will have Hastings with me. And in front of every ranger in the region he will be destroyed." That was the only thing that he could think of. He had to try to think fast, at least saying that would give him enough time to actually prepare himself for what he was about to do.

Ice nodded with a smile and smacked Keith's back in a friendly mannor, " 'Atta kid!" he said with a laugh.

Heath finally let go of Lavana who glomped herself on to the spiky red haired boy. Keith wrapped his arms around her and smiled, "I promise I'll be back by your sides soon..." He reassured her. In some ways Lavana reminded him of Kate. They both always worried about him when he was gone for too both tried to hide their fear and sadness from him. They both also were always happy no matter what, they always had a smile no matter how hard things got.

Lavana squeezed herself close to him, " Please be back soon.. We're all worried about you..." She said burring her head into his chest creating a small blush across his cheeks. She then pulled away from him to go and stand with the other two.

Ice ran his fingers through his hair and let out a grim chuckle, "That chick... What's her name..." He muttered snapping his fingers to try to remember. As soon as he did he snapped his finger a final time and pointed up, "Kate! That's her name!" This caught Keith's immediate attention, making Ice grin, "You know the one, the hot little ranger girl you went to school with?" He grinned.

Keith glanced over at him and then back down at the ground, "Yeah... what about 'er..." He muttered stuffing his hands into his pockets.

"She's a bit of a nose bleed." He laughed, "You think you could get me a picture of her... You know, to..."He thought with a smug look on his face, "remember her by."

Keith stood there in silence and said nothing to his child hood friend, 'pervert...' he thought to himself, "I'll see what I can do..." he muttered again.

Lavana elbowed Ice in the ribs and grunted, "Would you shut up you nasty perv!" she yelled.

Heath shook his head as the two brawled, "Well Keith, I think it's time that we get back..." At that he picked up the two and began to carry them off, "I'll see ya later kid!" He called out.

Day 187

The professor is still here... Now I have been asked to become one of the professors body guards with Kate... This makes things a hell of a lot harder than it was originally thought out out to be. Ever since I met her she's been distracting me for my main mission but if my father found out that she was distracting me then there would be no doubt in my mind that she would be disposed of. This would be so much easier if Hastings wasn't her grandfather... She would be able to be converted to Dim Sun's side..

If there was a way I could do this without upsetting her, Arcus knows that I would not hesitate to that option... But I don't have a choice, If I don't do this I won't be able to go home... I-I'll be rejected from my own family and I'll have no one..

Kate... I am so... So sorry...
