"Dani, Dani, I know you're here, stop hiding from me" Nick yelled with hurt, anger, and betrayal in his voice, as he went to their place, the place they met 5 years ago, and fell in love, and eventually broke up.

"You don't need to yell I'm right here" Dani said leaning against the tree behind him with her arms folded

"You're the golden ranger." Nick said bitterly when he saw her morpher

"I knew you would recognize my voice, I just didn't realize you would want to find me so quickly" Dani said casually

"How could you be so calm about this, you lied to me, your whole life was a lie to me." Nick said getting closer to her

"My life was a lie, clearly I wasn't the only the only one with a secret" Dani said getting a bit angry

"What have I ever lied to you about" Nick asked

"Nick I've been in this business way too long, you have magic in your blood, I know that your parents are legendary mystics." Dani explained

"That never stopped us from being together, yes I should have told you, but I still lived a normal life, I never ran off out of nowhere" Nick said

"You have no idea what my life has been like, I was never normal, I tried to be. Being with you was a risk but I took it, I risked everything, my safety, you're safety. It was easier when we were friends, but when we started dating, you became…" Dani said but stopped knowing this was going nowhere

"I became what Dani" Nick said frustrated

"Just forget it, listen we both have a job to do. Let's just do it, we only have to see each other on the battlefield." Dani said hopping on her bike, leaving Nick behind

"Bowen, Bowen are you alright" Udonna said as Nick stormed into Rootcore

"I don't want to talk about" Nick aid bitterly

"Bowen you need to have more control over your emotions, it isn't healthy" Udonna sighed knowing something had happened

"Just leave me alone" Nick said angrily at his mother even though he didn't know why he was taking his frustration out on her

"Bowen that is no way to speak to your mother, now we know you're upset" Leanbow explained

"You don't understand anything I went to find her, and I thought it would bring me closure but nothing" Nick explained

"You went to find Danielle" Leanbow said not knowing if he should tell his son what Daggeron had told them

"Yeah, and it backfired, if I never see her again, in civilian form, I'll be fine with that. The past is in the past" Nick stormed to his room

"Oh dear, if she is truly Athena, this is going to be very uncomfortable" Udonna said

"They were meant to find each other, it will just take time" Leanbow said

~…~

"Is it true" Daggeron said entering Snow prince's dimension

"I'm sorry, Daggeron, you'll have to be more specific" Snow Prince said casually

"Is my daughter, my child, still alive, is she the gold ranger" Daggeron said swallowing the lump in his throat

"Yes, Athena is alive and she is the Gold ranger" Snow Prince said

"How, how could you keep her from her mother and I, allow us to believe that our child was dead" Daggeron said

"She was in danger, darkness was after her, had she have stayed she would have been dead" Snow Prince explained "I brought her to the human realm myself"

You've been training her all these years" Daggeron said

"Yes, and I must say she is a worthy student, she shares many of the same skills and values as you do, you should be very proud" Snow Prince said

"I need to see her" Daggeron said

"I told her the truth before the last battle I would have thought she had returned to Rootcore with you" Snow Prince explained "Ah but here is your second chance, there seems to be a battle at the moment"

Daggeron saw the screen and teleported back to his dimension

Dani arrived on the scene just as Nick flew past her.

"Looks like I came right on time" Dani said to Nick

"You shouldn't be here at all" Nick said angrily

"Listen we're on the same team, let's just deal with it" Dani said as dogged hits

"Whatever" Nick said as he joined his team with their battles and she battled her own, until Daggeron came flying on his carpet

"Looks like you're out numbered" Daggeron said

"I'm fine but thank you, shouldn't you be with your team" Dani said as she blasted the Hidiacs

"You are part of my team" Daggeron said as fought his own Hidiacs

"Seems like someone is getting adjusted to being on another team" Koragg said as he landed in the field

"You and I have our own battle to fight Koragg" Dani said as she grabbed her blaster

"You will fail again gold ranger, it's only a matter of time" Koragg said as he blasted Dani who was thrown into a tree and struggled to get back

"Are you all right" Daggeron said as he rushed to the young rangers aid, who had de morphed due to the impact

"Dani, are you ok" Nick said as he to rushed over to her

"I'm fine, agh" Dani groaned as she held her side

"We should bring her to Rootcore" Zander said

"No, really I'm ok" Dani pleaded

"Dani, stop being stubborn, and let us help you" Nick said

"Please" Daggeron said as he helped her up, as Dani nodded

~…~

"I'm ok honestly I've been through worse" Dani winced as Udonna wrapped her ribs

"You are a stubborn child, has anyone told you that" Udonna laughed

"Once or twice" Dani winced again

~…~

"Snow Prince, what are you doing here" Leanbow asked

"I've come to check on my student, I saw that she was hurt" Snow Prince said

"I'm fine Snow Prince, I'll be heading out now" Dani said

"Please stay, join our team" Leanbow said

"Thats not the greatest idea" Dani said

"Please, Athena…"Daggeron said softly as Dani turned around

"You know" Dani said looking at Daggeron "You told him" Dani said to snow prince

"He came to me, he knew" Snow Prince said

"When Nick looked you up on the locator it showed that you were adopted, you have my crest, and your mothers eyes" Daggeron said softly moving closer to Danielle you had unshed tears in her eyes

"Can someone explain to us whats going on" Nick said

"This was thing they found of you after the battle, it was given to you when you were born" Daggeron said handing Dani a pendent in the shape of the sun and moon, as it touched her hand it started to glow "You are Athena… my daughter" Daggeron said softly as everyone including Nick stood in shock

"Are you alright Danielle." Snow Prince said

"I'm sorry I can't do this, I can't be part of another team" Dani said softly as she stepped away looking at Snow Prince "Not after everything I've done. Dani said as she ninja streaked out of Rootcore

"Explain, you know my daughter for years, what happened, thats caused her so much hurt and pain that she can't accept a new team" Daggeron said to Snow Prince

"It is tragic what happened in her life, but telling her story, would be me betraying her, and that I can not do, but please know that she is slowly healing, and unfortunately me telling her of her true parentage has made the pain worse" Snow Prince said sadly as he disappeared
