The explosion had taken its toll over the city, the buildings surrounding where the battle took place were broken apart. Pieces of the buildings were on the roads and sidewalks. Several cars were in flames, you could hear the bitter sound of the emergency alarms go off.
A young man with green hair slowly opened his eyes his vision was blurry at first he could see a young man in front of him with his back turned. Slowly he sat up his whole body ached with pain.
"Good you're awake" said Tommy turning around, slowly Trip got up on his feet.
"Where is everyone?" asked Trip looking around only seeing buildings that had been destroyed, the smoke in the air made it had to see things clearly.
"I was hoping you could tell me" said Tommy pointing to Trip forehead. Trip confused at first then he understood hat Tommy was talking about.
"I can't, it only dose it every once in a while" said Trip sadly, Tommy upset shook his head understanding.
"I was afraid you were going to say that" said Tommy, Tommy took up his communicator and handed it to Trip. "Can you fix this, I may need to get in contact with Alpha" Trip took it then looked up at Tommy.
"Why?" he asked, Tommy put his head down licking his lips.
"Because if the other are dead, I may need to get a hold of our back up rangers" said Tommy.
"Back up rangers?" asked Trip, Tommy nodded his head as he took a seat down on the ground.
"Yes, in case we were unable to defeat this army. I needed to make sure there would be someone here to protect the Earth, Kat, Aisha, Justin, Tonya and Billy" Trip remained silent as Tommy spoke, "I never thought it would come to this, I never wanted them to have to do this. Aisha is in Africa with her family, Kat's in London with her dancing. Justin is young; this isn't a battle for him to be part of. I should know when I was his age I fought many battles, Tonya heck she can't fight she has a son to care for and Billy he's on Aquatar helping its people cope for the loss of the Alien Rangers. It shouldn't have ended up this way" said Tommy sadly. Trip could feel Tommy's sadness and guilt slowly he walked over to him placing his hand on his shoulder.
"Maybe it won't, maybe their still alive. There's still hope Eric and Taylor are out there they'll come through I know they will" said Trip.
Zaspor and his men that were left all regrouped in one of the buildings that had been destroyed. "This is all that is left of my army" Zaspor was furious, "This is not acceptable, all of you better be prepared to battle tomorrow. You will have until the morning to regain what strength you have left" he said angrily.
"Ahh ahh" Rocky screamed out in pain, as Carter and Dana pulled him out of the rubble. Sweat covered his face as his breathing became deeper.
"Rocky you need to loosen up okay, let Dana look over you" said Carter. Rocky nodded his head he kept his eyes in contact with Carters. Carters face was bruised up dry blood up on his lips.
"Let me know when it hurts okay" said Dana.
"Okay" Rocky said softly, Dana began to press lightly around his body when she came upon his back. Rocky tensed up, "There" he said. Dana removed her hands from Rocky.
"What's wrong with him?" asked Carter.
"Rocky are you taking any pain pills" she asked him.
"Yeah for my back I injured it a few years ago" he told her.
"Do you have your pills with you now?" she asked,
"No I left them at the bunk, I didn't think I would need them" Rocky said. Carter nodded his head.
"So that was what you argument with Tommy was about" said Carter. Rocky laughed a little.
"Yeah, pretty dumb huh. Guess I should have listened to him" said Rocky.
"Well that doesn't matter now, what dose matter is we need to get you back to the bunk. Your back could become worse if you don't have one of your pills" said Dana her eyes said it all she was being very serious.
"We can't do that, we don't even know what's out there. We would be sitting ducks" said Rocky.
"That's a risk will have to take" Carter lifted one of Rocky arms on his shoulder as Dana took the other side.
The sun began to set on the city Jen, Lucas, Jason and Kim had been walking around for an hour not finding any of their team mates. "We better rest here guys, who know what will happen tomorrow" said Jason as he led them into an ally. Jen put her distance in she wanted to be alone. She sunk down on the ground putting her knees up to her chest; she held her hand tight were the ring Wes had given.
"You worried about him aren't you" said Lucas placing his hand on her shoulder. Jen looked up at him tears were in her eyes.
"I don't even know if he's still alive" Jen then began to lose it right there. Lucas quickly got onto the ground putting his arms around her in a hug.
"It's going to be okay Jen, Wes is okay I know he is" he told her, "He has to be" he said silently.
Jason watched as Lucas tried his best to confer Jen, he smiled bitterly. He then brought his attention to Kim, who had not said a word in hours. "You okay" he asked her.
"It's just a bruise I'll be fine" she said.
"No" Jason said,
"Oh, you mean Tommy don't you. I guess I knew what you meant I just didn't want to get into it" she said softly.
"I'm sure he's okay" said Jason
"I know, it's just..."
"He's not the same" said Jason
"Yeah" said Kim
"He'll be himself again it's just going to take some time" said Jason.
"We may not have time" said Kim putting her head down, Jason nodded his head.
"Yeah" he said letting out a breath
Eric made it into Silver Hill it was nearing night smoke from the fire earlier that day was beginning to fad a little. "Noo" Eric said as he slammed his fist on the road. He then heard a sound of rubble hit the ground, Eric quickly turned around. "Kelsey!" he said running over to her, catching her in his arms.
"Eric, you don't know how glad I am to see you" she said, dirt covered her face. Her arms and legs had scotches all over.
"What happened, where are the others?" asked Eric loudly. Fear shined in Kelsey's eyes, she took a deep breath.
"There was too many, the last thing I remember was the huge explosion it sent all of us flying in mid air" she said shacking to death. Eric was a loss for words he too began to shack with fear.
