CHAPTER 18 Decisions
Drea and Hunter waited anxiously in the side room to the center of Ninja Ops. Drea looked at the floor nervously. Hunter glanced up at his nervous fiancée and put his arm around her.
"Hey," he whispered, bringing her closer to him. Drea looked at him and smiled.
"Whether you're pregnant or not, I want to be with you the rest of my life. We'll get through whatever we need to together," he said. Drea looked at him lovingly and kissed him passionately.
"I love you," she said after breaking away from him. The two were about to kiss again when they heard Cam clear his throat. They looked up at him and suddenly got slightly nervous.
"I'm not sure if I should say congratulations or not," Cam replied. Drea sighed, putting her hand on her stomach. Hunter smiled.
"We're going to be parents, baby. It's going to be okay," he said. Drea smiled, reassured by Hunter's confidence.
"You guys need to tell the others," Cam said simply. Drea and Hunter nodded.
"Would you call them here?" Hunter asked. Cam agreed quietly and went to summon the other rangers. Drea kept her hand on her stomach.
"Was this supposed to happen? Now?" she asked.
"I don't know, but we'll work through it," Hunter said. He kissed her temple and went into the next room with Cam.
Meanwhile, Lothor was plotting on his next reign of terror.
"ZURGANE!!!" he bellowed. The tin henchman came running into the throne room.
"Yes sir," he replied.
"I want you to begin a plan to kidnap that baby as young as possible. You have almost a year to plan," Lothor order.
"A year?" Zurgane asked. Lothor rolled his eyes.
"You don't know humans that well do you? It takes nine months to give birth to a baby. It's not much good to us in the girl's stomach, now is it? GO!!!" he cried to Zurgane. The tin man ran out of the throne room as fast as he had come in.
The other rangers were gathered in Ninja Ops, waiting to hear what the big news was. Hunter and Drea stood next to the computer.
"Guys, what's up?" Blake asked. Hunter and Drea looked at each other. Hunter scratched his head.
"I'm not sure what the best order for our news is but.um.I guess I'll start with we're engaged," Hunter replied. The other rangers were ecstatic by the news.
"Congratulations," Tori said to Drea, giving her a hug.
"About time, bro," Blake said, giving him a hug then moving to Drea.
"What's the other news?" Shane asked.
"I'm pregnant," Drea replied. The excitement died down and pure shock came over everyone in the room, who didn't already know. Drea waited for them to respond.
"In their defense, they were engaged before they knew about the pregnancy," Cam said. Drea gave him a smile of appreciation.
"A baby? Whoa," Dustin said.
"Yeah, and we've got a fear that Lothor may come after our baby," Hunter said, holding Drea close to him.
"We're not sure what to do," Drea replied.
"Whatever happens, we're here and Lothor's not getting his filthy hands on you or my niece/nephew," Blake said to his future sister in law. Drea smiled her typical 100-watt smile and hugged the man she already considered a brother. Hunter smiled at seeing his love smile once again.
"Well, I guess to keep you a little distracted from worrying about that, we can go plan a wedding," Tori said to her friend. Drea smiled along with Hunter. It would be a wait to see what unfolded from Drea's pregnancy and their marriage, but Hunter had decided right then and their that he would rather die than let any harm come to the love of his life or his child.
The next few chapters will jump ahead to after the marriage and the baby. We'll also finally see how Lothor fits into all of this and find out more about Drea's powers, and what the baby inherits from Drea and Hunter. Find out in Chapter 19.
