CHAPTER 18 Predictions
A few hours had passed and the rangers had all had lunch together. Conner and Ethan took the ninja rangers, except for Hunter, out. Trent and Kira wanted to spend a little bit of time together before joining them. He expressed his concern to Kira about calling them that morning. Kira thought it was a little amusing.
"What is so funny? I don't think it's funny," Trent said.
"Trent, just assume that none of this family stuff had come up yet and you were still under the assumption that Leila was nothing more than a friend to you, rather than your adoptive sister. Can you honestly tell me you'd be reacting the same way that you are now?" Kira asked. Trent was about to answer but stopped and thought about it. He sighed.
"I guess your right. I just don't like the idea of my sister in bed with some guy," Trent said.
"Hunter isn't some guy. He's her boyfriend and unless you're a really good actor, he's also your friend. I doubt Leila would do anything irresponsible or something she didn't think she could handle. She's a smart girl Trent," Kira said.
"Your right. How are you so calm about this?" Trent asked with a smile. Kira smirked.
"It helps that I'm just her friend and your girlfriend rather than a relative," Kira replied honestly. They laughed and Trent went to hug her but Kira playfully backed away. Trent eyed her playfully and suspiciously. Kira just laughed and then took off running, with Trent right behind her. They laughed all the way until Trent tackled Kira from behind. He managed to angle himself so he would fall first and they just rolled until he was on top and pinned Kira down. They laughed as they tried to catch their breath. Kira lifted her head and locked eyes with Trent. They gazed at each other with smiles on their faces. Trent leaned in and locked lips with Kira for a sweet but quick kiss. He backed away a little and smiled down at Kira. She smirked.
"And your worried about Leila?" she asked playfully. She leaned in, framed his face with her hands, and kissed him passionately. They made out with each other, not caring about the world around them. Meanwhile, Hunter had stayed behind to take care of Leila. She had managed to bang herself up by exerting so much power. He got her bed ready for her to rest. He had brought up some ice packs and a first aid kit. He heard her bathroom door open and turned to see Leila walking out. She was walking as if she was sore. She had on white knit shorts and a halter that revealed her back. She walked up to Hunter.
"Let me see," he said. Leila hesitated and Hunter smiled.
"Baby, it's okay, I want to help," he said reassuringly, kissing her forehead. Leila bit her lip and turned around. Hunter silently grimaced. Leila's back was pretty banged up. Hunter just wasn't sure how she had gotten banged from using the energy.
"It's bad isn't it?" Leila asked, apparently upset. Hunter gently hugged from behind and planted kisses along her shoulder and up to her neck.
"Don't worry about it. Climb in bed and I'll take care of it," he said. Leila climbed into her bed and kept her back to Hunter as he sat on her bed and put relaxation lotion over her brushes. Leila hissed in pain but relaxed as Hunter's hands gently massaged her back. He carefully gathered her long hair and placed over her shoulder, kissing the back of it.
"How are you feeling?" he asked.
"I'm scared," Leila said softly. Hunter stopped when he heard those words. He could always tell when Leila was scared or uneasy about something, but he had never heard her admit it. He got up from one side of the bed, walked around, and laid down next to Leila, cradling her in his arms. His heart broke when he saw tears in her eyes.
"I mean, I didn't think I would like moving to Reefside but then I met the others, but the whole thing with my mom and dad came up. Yea, Trent's great, he's a great brother but I'm still getting to know him and it's so awkward with my dad. I feel like he wants to spend all his time with me and none of it with Trent. Now all this is happening and I don't know what it's doing to me. Hunter I'm scared," Leila said, tears falling from her eyes. Hunter leaned in and gently kissed her.
"Baby, I think I know what's going on with you," he said simply. Leila's eyes widened and she looked at him.
"You do?!" she asked anxiously.
"I think! But you know the legend of the 'Thunder Box' right?" he asked.
"Yea, where they keep a legendary power bonded from the destined ones two sides. What about it?" Leila asked.
"We found it in your mom's room," Hunter said. Leila was stunned but she then narrowed her eyes at him questioningly.
"What were you doing in my mom's room?" she asked suspiciously.
"Trying to find out what was ringing. We were affected by the spell they put on it," he explained. Leila was shocked beyond belief.
"Why didn't my mom tell me?" she asked.
"Probably because this was something you were supposed to come into on your own. I only told you what I know because I can't stand to see you cry," Hunter said.
"Will I ever be able to control these powers?" Leila asked.
"Knowing you, you probably will," Hunter replied. Leila smiled up at him. She leaned in and gently kissed him. She left a trail of feathered kisses down his chest before settling back onto her pillow.
"I know this is off subject but I have something for you," Hunter said.
"What?" Leila asked. Hunter reached into his pocket.
"It's an early birthday present. I wanted to give this to you when we were alone anyway," he said before pulling out something from his pocket. Leila saw that it was a silver ring with tiny bright sapphires encrusted into a heart in the middle.
"Hunter, it's beautiful...," Leila whispered.
"It was my mother's. I had it cleaned and fixed up. I wanted to give it to you as a birthday present. But also as a promise ring," Hunter said. Leila looked up at him in surprise.
"A what?" she asked, smiling.
"Leila, we're going through a lot right now and we have a lot more to go through, but you're it for me. I'm giving this to you as a promise that you're the one for me and I don't want any other woman in my life," Hunter said. Leila smiled.
"I love you so much Hunter. You're the only one for me," she said before leaning in and kissing him passionately. They made out for several minutes before settling into each other's arms.
"Not to ruin the moment but is there anything else you need to tell me about the 'Thunder Box'?" Leila asked. Hunter gently ran his hand along her back.
"Well, there's one thing that is a general myth amongst these Academy legends," Hunter said.
"What is it?" Leila asked.
"Your grandpa once told me that academy legends, when they're destined ones are children of sensei's the powers tend to be a little different," Hunter said.
"How so?" Leila asked.
"In your case, there's a good chance your powers will take the form of...well...," Hunter said, trying to find the right words.
"Hunter, tell me right now," Leila demanded.
"There's a good chance you'll become a ranger," Hunter said.
WHAT? Leila a ranger. Is Hunter right? What kind of power will she have? Will she be able to control her powers before coming into the legend of 'Thunder Box'? What's going to happen with Mesagog? Will they ever find out about Anton's weird behavior? Find out all this and more in the next few chapters. Please R&R.
