Previously on Power Ranger's Dino Thunder: Remixed:
Justin had just placed Haley's bag in the trunk when Kim brought down another bag, her third bag. He groaned.
"Really, Kim? We're only going to be gone two days." Justin said, wiping his hand over his forehead.
"That is the last one. I never know what I want to wear besides, this is my purse so you don't have to worry about putting it in the trunk." Kim stuck her tongue out at him.
"Real mature." Justin replied.
"All right, kids, no fighting." Haley mocked in a parents voice.
Tommy laughed. "This is going to be a fun trip."
"Yeah, I can't wait to meet some of your friends. It'll be great to actually meet the people you've heard so many stories about." Haley said.
Justin closed the trunk and opened Haley's door. She smiled at him before getting in.
"Trying to make me look bad, bro?" Tommy asked him.
He just shrugged and got in the car on the other side.
Kim got into the passenger side and buckled up. Once Tommy was in the car, he started it up as they drove down his long driveway.
"They're going to be so surprised when they find out." Kim said.
"Yeah, they will. I think this is going to be a great weekend trip." Tommy spoke.
Before Strange Relations
Tommy pulled into the parking lot of the hotel. Kim and Haley decided to check in, leaving Tommy and Justin to grab the luggage. Tommy had just came from grabbing a trolley as Justin pulled out Kim's heavy suitcase. "Was Kim always like this in high school?"
"You mean the kind of girl who over packs?" Tommy asked, placing the suitcases onto the trolley.
Justin nodded as he leaned against the car.
"Let's just say, don't go shopping if she asks. I only went when Aisha wasn't able to go with her." Tommy warned him.
They pulled the trolley into the hotel as they saw Kim and Haley waiting near the elevator. "We're all checked in, so all we have to do is call the group and get them together tonight."
"So, what's the plan?" Haley asked once they got into the elevator.
"Well, I figured I'd call Jason and convince him to get the gang together for a dinner, saying something along the lines that I've gotten a free weekend and I wanted to spend it with them. Knowing him, he'll come through." Tommy explained.
"And where do I come in?" Kim asked cheekily.
He took her hand. "You, my dear, Pink Princess are going to make a grand entrance and then we will announce to our friends about our relationship."
"I like the sound of that." She smiled.
"I believed you might." Tommy said.
The elevator dinged.
Justin and Haley grabbed their luggage and made their way into their room while Tommy pulled the Trolley into their room. Before Kim could grab her bag, Tommy picked her up and swung her around, Kim let out a surprised cry before she was placed onto the bed. Tommy looked down at her placing his weight on his elbows.
"What was that for?" Kim asked.
"Well, we're together, alone with no teenagers and I figured we could take advantage of this time." Tommy said placing small kissed on her neck.
"But shouldn't you call Jason first before you decide to ravish me?" Kim suggested.
Tommy groaned because he knew she was right. Tommy pulled his cellphone out from his pocket as he moved to sit beside Kim. He called Jason.
"Hey, Tommy, I didn't expect to hear from you this soon. What's up?" Jason asked.
"Well, just got done doing a big battle and I figured that I'd come down and meet up you with and the gang. I was hoping we could get together tonight. I brought Justin and Haley with me because Haley wanted to officially meet everyone." Tommy explained, but during the middle of his speech, Kim crawled into his lap. "Plus, I've got some news of my own I want to share."
"You're in Angel Grove? Awesome! Sure, yeah, I'll call up the gang and we'll meet at the new downtown restaurant they just opened. Is 8:00 good?" Jason asked him.
Kim was wrecking havoc with his brain cells. She was sucking his neck and unbuttoning his shirt and she ground her body lightly against his.
"Uh," Tommy had to clear his throat. "Yeah, 8:00 sounds great."
Kim helped him take off his shirt, and she lightly ran her hands up his exposed chest. "The place is called O'Reily's and see you then."
Tommy threw his phone across the bed before he wrapped his hands around her wrist and turned them pushing her hands into the bed. She grinned up at him.
"You know you were playing with fire." Tommy said to her.
"Well, good thing I have a big, strong dragon to scare the fire away." Kim said, with her usual sass.
"I think this time I'm going to be stoking the fire to create an inferno. We've got a couple of hours before we need to get ready." Tommy said as he pulled her tank top up over her head. "I'm done with foreplay."
He bent his head and kissed her. Kim groaned against his lips because all that tension had finally reached its peaking point.
At 7:45, the two couples left the hotel and headed down to the restaurant that Jason has told them about. "Okay, Kim give us ten minutes and then I'll come back and get you."
After Tommy had Kim's agreement, the three friends headed into the restaurant and were immediately greeted by Jason. Tommy and Jason did that guy hug thing with Jason and Justin introduced Haley to Jason.
"This is the famous Haley who helped Tommy get through college. Let me just say you are a miracle worker." Jason joked as he gave her a hug.
"Haha, you're a real comedian. We are the rest of the group?" Tommy asked.
"They are at the table, I figured I'd meet you." Jason answered.
"Well, let's go." Justin said in excitement.
Jason shook his head at Justin as they walked to the table. Trini, Adam, Rocky, Aisha all looked up from their menus when the four walked up to the table. There were lots of hugs and greetings but Tommy stood as everyone else sat down.
"There's another reason I wanted to get all of us together. Even though Billy and Zack couldn't be here I know that they will be happy with this news. So, we have two things to celebrate tonight. Justin and Haley are dating." He announced. "And I am also dating someone new."
"Excuse me?" Aisha said.
"Yes, I am dating someone. I know you guys are going to love her." Tommy responded.
"So, where is she?" Trini asked, not exactly know how to feel about the idea of Tommy dating someone who wasn't Kim, Kat not included.
"I told her to wait so she can make an entrance. I'll go grab her." Tommy said before walking away.
"Did you know about this?" Trini asked Jason.
He shook his head. "No, this is new to me."
"But did you see his face. He looked so happy though. I haven't seen him look that happy in a long time." Adam commented.
"Yeah, I mean if he can make her look that happy, shouldn't we at least give her a fair chance?" Rocky asked.
They nodded in agreement.
"Oh my god!" Trini exclaimed. "Kim?"
"Hey, Trini!" Kim said running over to hug her. Aisha stood up and joined in on the hug as they started talking a mile a minute to each other.
Tommy walked over to his chair and waited for Kim to get done with the girls.
"Tommy, anything you want to tell us." Jason raised his eyebrow.
Kim walked over to stand towards him and he grabbed her hand in his. "We're back together."
A collaborative cheer went out amongst the group. They had waited eight years for this. There was good food, great company, and even greater friends. This was one of the best weekends they could have possibly have and the great thing about it was no monster problems to ruin it.
Strange Relations:
Trent walked into the greenhouse, he found his dad their writing notes down on the plants he stood studying.
"Working on a way to make brussel sprouts edible?" Trent asked his dad.
"Trent, hey, what are you doing here?" Anton asked as he took down a note.
"I read that you won the Greenleaf Award for your new research. I just wanted to congratulate you." Trent said as Anton closed his clip board.
Trent hugged him. "Wel...thanks. I appreciate that." He walked around Trent to one of his shelfs. "If, um, only I was as successful in all my research." Anton picked up one of the plants.
"Still no luck controlling Mesogog?" Trent asked.
Anton just grunted as they walked.
"Dad, let me tell the other rangers. They may find a way to help you." Trent suggested.
Anton set the plant down on the table in front of him. "No. I can do this." He said adamantly. "I swear, Trent, I just...need a little more time. Okay?"
Trent reluctantly nodded.
"Hello?" Cassidy called from the doorway. Devon had his camera and captured her walking in and towards Dr. Mercer.
"Dr. Mercer, Cassidy Cornell. Reefside 3. Can I have a moment of your time?" She asked as she extended her microphone towards him.
"Yeah, I know who you are, Cassidy. You were in my class remember?"
"Oh, yeah." She laughed as if she didn't remember. "Anyway, I'm here to do a report on your recent Greenleaf Award for scientific breakthroughs in botanical research."
"Right, well, it will be reward enough if I can prefect these plants. If it works, they'll be able to adapt and then thrive in any climate on Earth." Anton explained.
"Oh, cool, that will mean that people all around the world can grow their own crops." Devon interjected in awe as they walked back into the room with his plants on the shelves.
"That's what I'm hoping for." Anton said.
"Intersting! Are we seeing a kinder, gentler Anton Mercer?" Cassidy asked.
"My father has always dedicated his research to helping mankind." Trent told her.
"And have you always succeeded?" Cassidy asked Anton.
"Look, every scientist has had his share of failures. I'm no exception." Anton told them as he was overtaken by a bout of dizziness and turned around so they didn't see but they could tell something was wrong.
"Hey, uh, you don't look so good, man." Devon commented. "Did you have some of that mystery meat in the cafeteria?"
Trent saved Anton from answering. "He's got a lot of work to do. We better let him get to it." Trent urged them out.
"Well, I haven't finished my interview." Cassidy remarked.
"Maybe another time." She scoffed as Trent pushed them towards the door. "I'll catch up with you later, Dad."
"Bye!" Devon yelled before Trent was successful in getting them out of the room.
What they didn't see was his eyes changing. He had fallen to the ground as he fazed into Mesogog.
Once he rose, he was no longer Anton Mercer. He was Mesogog.
He picked up the plant on the table. "Mercer's pathetic little experiments." He crushed the pot in his hands as it fell to the ground. "He's feeble attempts at helping people. Makes me sick." He slid three plants to the ground and then crashing another one in his anger. He picked up a green plant.
"My generals have shown me nothing but failure. Maybe it's time to grow a winner."

On an island, with no location inside a laboratory
"We have to do something." Elsa said as she set one of her jars on the shelf that helps them make monsters as she picked up this green filled jar. "I know Mesogog and he won't put up with our defeat much longer." She handed him the jar.
"I will show him that I am a worthy soldier." The evil White Ranger said.
He walked around a table and just when he was planning to set the jar down he was overcome by a spark in his head causing him to drop the jar onto the floor.
"Something is wrong." He grunted out as he fell to one knee. "I feel so weak. What's happening to me?"
Elsa walked over and put her hand under his arm to help him stand. "Great. You're losing your power. I'm not surprised really. It was only a matter of time." She patted his arm.
"I don't understand." He said.
"When Zeltrax created you, it caused a glitch in the morphing grid. Two White Rangers can't exist simultaneously. Eventually, one has to go." Elsa explained.
The evil White Ranger jerked her hand off of him. "Then Trent Mercer must be eliminated...and the other rangers along with him." He walked away with determination.
Elsa sneered after him intrigued as to his plan.

Haley's Cybercafe
Ethan sat at his table on his computer playing one of his video games. Just then a video popped up onto the screen. Conner was at the counter ordering a burger and some fries for he and Kira to share, while she sat at the table they gotten a few tables over from Ethan, writing in her journal thinking of lyrics for her new song that was in her head.
Kim had stopped by to talk with Haley about maybe expanding the building for something she had in mind.
"Hello, Blue Ranger." The evil White Ranger said.
"Okay, maybe I have been sitting too close to the screen." He looked around before he leaned forward. "Trent, is that you?"
"Don't insult me. I am the one and only true White Ranger." He replied.
He was a little shell-shocked that the White Ranger clone contacted him directly. "Uh, guys, you gotta see this." Ethan called out.
Conner, Kira, Kim took a position on either side of Ethan, with Kim standing behind him leaning to look at the screen.
"I have a challenge for you and your ranger friends. Meet me at the Seaside for out final battle." He demanded of them.
"And what if we have something better to do?" Conner asked defiantly. He didn't being told to show up somewhere just because the evil guys wanted him to.
"Then the consequences will be on your head." He replied before the video clicked out.
Ethan shrugged. "The dude's never heard of e-mail?"
"It makes it more fun for him with the video and makes us more aggravated." Kim told Ethan. "Besides, I've been itching for a good fight."
"Come on, guys. Let's go." Conner told them.
"What about Trent? He went to see his dad." Kira reminded him.
"We can take care of this guy." Conner informed, positive that they wouldn't need the White Ranger.
"Well, I vote for bringing in Dr. O. a little backup."

Inside a laboratory, on an island with no location
Mesogog admired the green unusually looking plant he took from Mercer's greenhouse. He believed it would serve him well for this battle.
"What's that?" Elsa asked, her voice taken on a more nasal quality.
"Since I'm surrounded by such incompetence, I'm forced to take matters into my own hands." He turned, as started to walk towards the entry doors. "When I'm done...this plant will be able to produce fearsome creatures...even a new tree of life." He explained.
"But the creatures that I make for you..."Elsa starts.
Mesogog cuts her off fiercely. "Are a joke! Now, get out of my way!" He brushed past her knocking his shoulder into hers as he made he way out of the lab.

Seaside
The five rangers all came off their cycles and looked around as the waves crashed around them.
"Come out, come out, wherever you are!" Ethan yelled out.
"Are you sure this is where we're supposed to meet him?" Tommy asked them, because the entire beach was deserted.
Kira turned. "Huh?" She said right before they all were taken by surprise when they where all attacked by surprise as the evil White Ranger, used that lightening speed of his and hitting each one of them in the chest sending them flying back.
They all landed hard on the sand. They looked up to see the evil White clone, standing so relaxed and composed.
"Miss me?" He asked crossing his arms.
"Do you really have to ask?" Kira asked sarcastically.
They all panted as they stood.
"You're really starting to bug me. Don't clone disappear after a while? Why are you still here?" Kim said to him.
His question was ignored. "Where is the White Ranger?"
"Five against one-I don't see why you'd want to make it six. I mean if you're really feeling adventures, we could invite Justin to spice things up." Conner declared.
The evil White Ranger pulled out his dagger and before they could react, he fired it at them, sending them all to the ground for the second time in two minutes. Tommy was starting to get mad.
"I'm glad you could make it. Are you ready for the next phase?" he asked them, in a cocky tone.
"Name your game." Conner said.
"My challenge, my rules. Let's take it to the zords." He told them right before he jumped into his own zord.
"Dino Stegozord, on-line!"
"This guy doesn't waste any time." Conner pulled out his Sheild of Triumph.
"Right!" Ethan, Kim and Kira yelled as they concentrated on sending their gem power into the sheild.
"Triassic Power!" He morphed. "Mesodon Rover!" He called.
All four rangers jumped into the control part of the zord. Conner placed his shield into the center console. "Shield of Triumph, full power!" Kira, Ethan and Kim stood on either side of him in front of a console of their own to help Conner with this fight.
"Mesodon Megazord!" They all said together as the mesodon split apart and came together to become the megazord.
"Auxillary zords, activiate!" Tommy yelled into his morpher as the auxillary zords added themselves onto the Mesodon zord.
"Who's tough now?" Conner asked, he couldn't help it, it was just too good to pass up.
Kira rolled her eyes at her boyfriend behind her helmet, but she could admit that they did look pretty intimidating.
The evil White Ranger struck first as he came at them with a running start and just when he brought his glider sword up to attack, the Mesodon zord used its right arm to punch the Stegozord in the chest of its armor sending it flying back.
"What's happening?" The evil White Ranger looks down at his morpher. "I'm losing energy."
Elsa and Mesogog, watched the fight. "He doesn't even have the power to control his zords anymore." She commented. "This is sad to watch."
Mesogog looked at her before returning his gaze to the screen.
"Lasers at full power." He commanded once he got his zord to stand. They fired at full power, but as the Mesodon Megazord continued towards the Stegozord, it didn't seem to have an effect on him.
"Triceras Weapons, Counter Strike!" They all commanded. The right arm came out as it shot energy balls at the Stegozord, while the left swirled its on sword absorbing some energy and sending it at the other zord.
"Now I'm mad." The evil White Ranger said. The zord jumped up in the sky before doing a curling motion towards the Mesodon, making sure the Stegozord's sharp bones hit the Mesodon.
"Tricera Lance."
The left hand did the same swirling motion it did before but the right arm added the extra kick and power blast as it send a powerful shot of laser energy to the Stegozord.
The blast was too much for the Stegozord. "The system's are overloading." The evil White Ranger exclaimed, as sparks flew around him. The zord broke apart and the evil White Ranger landed on the sand, near the ocean. He started to walk as he was suddenly overcome by an electrical surge going through his body making him even more weak than he already felt.
"What's wrong with him? Kira asked as all five rangers stood ten feet away from the crouching White clone.
"You are worthy opponents, Rangers." The evil White Ranger said.
"Maybe we can help you." Conner offered.
"No, the battle must go on until the question is answered." He shook his head as he stood.
"What question?" Kim asked him.
"Who will survive as the White Ranger." he answered, as he started to walk away.
"Huh?" Kim asked, before she looked down at her morpher. "Whoa! I got control over the new Stegozord."
"No!" He cried out. "I've lost control of them. Must...keep fighting." He stumbles off.
X~X
Mercer's Greenhouse
"Dad?" Trent came into the greenhouse looking for his dad and saw that most of his plants were all on the floor. Glass surrounded the floor, pots were broken on the table. "Dad!" He yelled but there was no sign of him. He gripped his side as an electrical surge went through him, nearly making him get to his knees by the pain that went through his body.
X~X
On an island with no location
"The White Ranger continues to fail." Elsa said to Mesogog. "He might not be around much longer."
He rose from his chair. "No matter. My plant is ready to take form," Elsa sat into his chair as he made his way toward the plant. "And make a new breed of warriors."
Mesogog harnessed an energy of power between his claws before thrusting it into the plant, and it shifted into a warrior.
"Master?" The warrior said.
"Welcome..." He waved his claw in front of the armor, as it came to life. "My soldier."
X~X
Command Center/lair
Haley set in front of the computers screens as she looked up both White Rangers through the dino gem power's. Everyone stood behind her waiting for the verdict.
"I was afraid this was going to happen. The white dino gem can't sustain being clone. The energies have to be contained by one white ranger." Haley said looking up at Kira, since she was standing right next to her.
"If anyone's taking votes, mine's on Trent." Kira commented.
"We need to contact him." Tommy told Haley.
Before she could even start putting in the keys, the computer beeped as a giant-sized monster appeared on the computer screen. Conner mouth fell open, he looked at Tommy.
Tommy shook his head. "Like that wasn't going to happen. Haley, you call Trent. Come on, guys."
They all moved to the center of the floor. "Ready?" Tommy called.
"Ready!"
"Dino Thunder, Power Up! Ha!"
"Pink Ranger Power!"
"Shift Into Green Ranger Power!"
X~X
Mercer's House
Trent had just come out of the greenhouse after he had finally stopped feeling that pain. It was weird how quick it came and had left him. He didn't know what was going on, but he was going to get answers.
His gem beeped. "Trent, are you okay?"
"Yeah, I think so. Something weird's going on. My dino gem- it's freaking out."
"I think you shoulder come back here right away." She told him.
He nodded to himself. "Yeah, maybe that's a good idea." He put his morpher down and took a breath as he turned to see the evil White clone standing not fifteen feet away.
"Not so fast. I'm tired of living in your shadow. After this, there will only be one White Ranger."
Trent's morpher appeared on his wrist. "Hey, I got no problem with that." He said as he brought morpher up.
"White Ranger, Dino Power!" He morpheed. "Drago Dino Power!"
The evil clone harnessed all the power he had left into his body. "Super Dino Mode."
THe charged at each other, the evil clone tried to slice across the left side of Trent's armor but he side-stepped to avoid it and then block the counter attack the clone tried to use to hit him with, Trent kicked his right leg up but the clone blocked it and then Trent rolled to avoid the clone's swing at him. Trent stood up and had to block the clone's own jump kick at him. Trent ducked another one of the clone's swing but the clone used the leverage of Trent forward movement and sliced the right side of his armor sending Trent to the ground.
The clone ran at Trent with an evil laugh and tried to kick him but Trent blocked with his own foot. They both kicked each other in the chest of their armor.
Elsa and Mesosgog watched the current fight between the two White Rangers on the monitor. Elsa sat in Mesogog's chair.
Elsa sighed. "I don't know which one to root for."
"I have lost all interest. But my Jade Gladiator will finally bring me victory."
Elsa didn't comment. She looked forward and continued to watch the White Rangers fight.
Trent brought up his dagger to block the clone's long black talons that he was using as a sword. Once on the left and then on the right. Trent ducked under as he brought both arms around to cut Trent, so Trent tried to swing his right arm down to hit the clone, but he was blocked and then the clone brought his talon hard against Trent's chest, sending him flying back to the ground.
"You can feel it, too, can't you? Only one of us can survive!" The clone said, smugly.
Trent panted as he sat up. "I guess it's gonna come down to who wants it more." He stood shakily.
Before the clone could reply, he was over taken at that painful shocks went through his body causing him to fall to his knees.
"Now's who's feeling it?" Trent countered.
"You wish!"
The charged at each other again this time Trent made the first move by trying to use his dagger to hit the clone in the face, but the clone bent back to avoid the attack, the clone tried to thrust one of his talons into the Trent but Trent bent back to avoid and grabbed the clone's wrist. So, the clone used his left talon to strike but Trent grabbed that wrist too. The evil clone wasn't dismayed as he crossed his talons in an attempt to get Trent's helmet but Trent stepped back to avoid the attack.
The evil clone grabbed Trent by his shoulder, but Trent was prepared and spun them around causing them to break free of each other. The next few moves where basically attacking and counter attacks. The clone tried to kick Trent, but he blocked and then did a spinning high kick, kicking the clone's left wrist in the process.
"I can feel your weakness! It won't be long now!" The evil clone declared as they stared each other down.
They struggled with each other before Trent through his clone into one of his marble bench seats, causing the middle of the bench to break in half. The evil clone panted and groaned as the power was seeping out of him.
"Get up!" Trent demanded, he wasn't finished and he was determined not to lose.
The clone stood up slowly. "You fight with honor, Trent Mercer"
"How can you talk about honor when you don't even have a soul?" Trent asked.
"I don't need a soul, thanks for reminding me." He let out a battle cry as he jumped and flew at Trent.
Trent pushed him off him when the clone grabbed him and then blocked the high kicks he tried to use. He blocked the extended kick and then had to duck under the roundhouse the clone tried to give. While the clone struck high, Trent ducked again but when he came up he struck from low to high causing the clone to roll from impact.
"Can't take much more?" Trent asked him, his breathing hard from the exertion but he refused to give up.
The clone stood, both were panting hard.
"Does it have to be this way?" Trent asked, because he didn't know how much longer he could keep gong.
"My rules, remember?" The clone said, defiant in the knowledge that he might lose. He was going to become victorious.
"If that's the way you want it." Trent replied.
They both ran at each other full speed and both gave one final blow across the chest. They kinda of stood still for a moment. The clone turned around slowly.
"I guess you wanted it more." Trent turned when he said that. "Goodbye, White Ranger." Those where he final words before he fell forward and exploded.
Trent covered his helmet from the blast before he looked at the empty spot where his clone once stood.

In the Forest
Tommy was just thrown from the Dimetria zord. Conner and the others ran to him and helped him stand. They looked at the giant jade plant with its added branches.
"How are we going to defeat this thing?" Conner asked him.
There was the sound of crunching and Ethan turned to see what the sound was. "Guys, look!" he exclaimed.
Kira and Kim gasped as they walked to stand in a straight line as they watched one White Ranger walking towards them.
"But which one, is it?" Justin asked.
They all watched until the White Ranger stopped ten feet away from them.
"Trent?" Kira asked the silent Ranger.
The White Ranger brought his morpher up. "Power down. Who were you guys expecting?"
They all laughed as they walked up to him. Conner and Trent side fived with each other. "Good timing, Trent. You guys ready to do this?" Tommy asked them.
Kim and Justin nodded. They all got into their own formation that arched out into a pyramid.
"Ready?!"
"Dino Thunder, Power Up! Ha!"
X~X
Mesogog watched his Jade Gladiator getting defeated before he stormed out of the lab. Elsa stood and started to pace.
"Mesogog is getting desperate. It's only a matter of time before he turns on me. I don't stand a chance against him, unless...I strike when he is most...vulnerable." Elsa said as she watched the video screen of Mesogog as Anton walked into Haley's Cybercafe.
X~X
Haley's Cybercafe
After a huge battle, where they combined all the zords and the auxiliary zords, and working together took a toll on them. The teens headed back to the Cybercafe.
Anton walked into the cafe looking for Trent.
"Dad, you're here!" Trent called, to his dad in surprise coming from the back where the couches are.
Anton turned. "Hey, look, um, I just want to stop by and see how you're doing." He walked them over to the counter which was partly deserted and gave them some privacy to talk. "And I wanted to give you this." He said placing an award on the counter towards Trent.
"The Greenleaf Award?" Trent asked surprised. "But you earned this."
Anton nodded. "I know. I know. Look, it would mean a lot to me if you would take it. I mean, having those, um...you do a lot more to help people than I do." He finally said.
"Dad, I know you're gonna to find a way to beat this. You just hang in there." Trent grabbed his wrist in a show of comfort.
Anton nodded before out of the cafe doors.
Kira walked up to Trent. "Hey, your dad seems kind of stressed. Is everything okay with him?"
Trent nodded. "Yeah, he's just working on a special project."
"He's a smart guy. He'll work it out." She placed her hand on his shoulder.
Trent nodded. "Yeah, I hope so." Kira walked over towards Conner and he pulled her into his lap. She laughed as they started to talk.
Trent looked away from them and saw Ethan playing near the back on one of the cafe's computers playing a video game. Justin and Haley were laughing as Justin helped Haley with her drink orders.
Even without Kim and Dr. O, being there he bet they were having a good time. He tried not to let this melancholy feeling consume him because he found a place where he fit in with this group of people. He rarely felt like that since his parents died. He just hopes they won't hate him when they find out the truth.
