Disclaimer: same as Chapter 11....TORI BRADLEY ROCKS...Read "Code Blue"...it rocked..............

CHAPTER 12 Rejoicing

Anton, Laura, LeeAnn, Sensei Omano, Tommy, Kim, and Hayley discussed amongst themselves in the kitchen. Cam, Shane, Dustin, Hunter, Blake, Tori, Ethan, Devin, Kira, and Trent were doing there best to get a little distracted from the fight as they needed to recharge.

"Hey little guy, I'm going to teach you skateboarding, and rollerblading, and anything with wheels that your daddy can't teach you," Shane said to baby Kai. Blake rolled his eyes as the others broke down laughing.

"So do you two know what you're having yet?" Tori asked of Kira and Trent.

"Nope, we want to be surprised," Kira said.

"I just want a healthy baby," Trent added. Blake chuckled.

"Good luck if you have a girl," he said to Trent, whose face fell.

"Why?" he asked.

"As much as you will love her, she is a father's worst nightmare," Blake said. Kira and Tori glared at Blake.

"What? It's true," he insisted. Suddenly, a pair of feet bounded down the stairs and the group looked up to see Leila, out of breath and standing on the landing.

"Hey guys, can I borrow Trent for a second?" she asked, a little oddly.

"Everything okay Leila?" Ethan asked.

"Yea, yea, you'll all see in a second that everything's fine, just need to borrow Trent," she said as Trent got up and walked over to her. As soon as he was close enough, she grabbed his hand and literally dragged him up the stairs.

"LEILA!" he screamed. Tommy and Anton ran in while the others looked from their seat.

"What's wrong?" Tommy asked. The kid rangers were so dumbfounded that they just shrugged their shoulders. Meanwhile, Chloe and Conner were kind of having a little get to know you again session. They just looked at each other, smiling and blushing, but at the same time a little uncomfortable.

"You're more handsome than I pictured you," Chloe commented, smiling. Conner smirked at her.

"Well, your still as beautiful as ever. But you've got something on your face," Conner said, frowning a little and leaning forward.

"What is it?" Chloe asked. Suddenly, Conner planted his lips on Chloe's and they embraced in a heated kiss.

"Oh I really wanted to see this," came a familiar voice sarcastically. Chloe and Conner separated. Chloe looked up to see Leila and Trent, her brother whom she was seeing for the first time. She smiled as she stood up.

"Trent?" she said, a little unsure. Trent frowned and looked at his sister.

"Yea Chloe, it's me. What's wrong? What did you want me to see Leila?" Trent asked.

"She wanted you to see that I could see," Chloe answered. Trent's face fell once again.

"What?" he asked.

"I...can...see...you...Trent," Chloe said playfully, doing hand motions and stopping to embrace her shocked brother, who finally grasped the concept. Conner and Leila smiled as the brother and sister embraced, almost as if was their first time meeting.

"Now can I go nuts?" Chloe asked of Leila.

"Sure," Leila said.

"Hold on, why are you going nuts?" Trent asked.

"I'm going down to see dad and everyone else for the first time," Chloe said before running past Trent and bolting for the stairs. Trent, Leila, and Conner all glanced at each other and smiled before following her.

"MOM!! DAD!!" Chloe screamed as she came bolting down the stairs. The kids in the living room stood up as everyone in the kitchen ran out.

"Chloe what's wrong?" Anton asked as he walked up to his daughter. Chloe looked like she was about to cry as she stared into her father's eyes for the first time. Anton's face fell as he stared back into her eyes and realized what happened.

"Oh my..baby," he said as he embraced his daughter and almost broke down crying. Everyone else was extremely confused.

"Dudes, mind cluing us in?" Dustin asked. Anton and Chloe separated and Chloe glanced at all of her family members and friends.

"I can see you guys...," she said simply. That did it, happiness, shock, and tears of joy instantly filled the room. Everyone was overjoyed at the news. It was the break the kid rangers were looking for. Their distraction from the current situation was celebrating with Chloe her new sight.

Hours later, Chloe sat outside her father's house, taking in the sunset. Conner watched her from right outside the glass doors. Tori, Blake, Hunter, and Leila watched from the kitchen.

"They're hopeless," Hunter said.

"I think all of us were like that at one point," Kira pointed out.

"There he goes," Trent said. The others looked up to see Conner walked out towards Chloe.

"Good thing dad and Hayley went out for the evening," Leila said, in reference to what might happen between Conner and Chloe. Meanwhile, Chloe still sensed Conner approaching and looked up just as he sat down.

"How are you feeling?" Conner asked. Chloe smiled.

"Like I have a whole new life," she said.

"Amazing that your cousins who turned on you could give you something like second sight," Conner said.

"I don't think it was unintentional," Chloe commented.

"What do you mean?" Conner asked.

"I don't know about my adoptive parents involvement. But I really think there is more to my cousin's involvement than what we saw. I think them restoring my sight was a sign that I need to look into this," Chloe explained.

"Do you think that were forced into it?" Conner asked. Chloe sighed.

"I hope so. I don't want to think about me being wrong on this," Chloe said.

IS Chloe right? Were her cousins forced? Are they really GOOD guys? And what about her parents involvement? What is to come with the fight against Torrance? What's to come between Chloe and Conner? Find out in the next chapters.

A/N: Okay guys. A few things to vote on. First of all, my next three stories to come are the Tori/Blake prequel, the Hunter/Leila prequel, AND Dino Storm 2. Now, I want you all to vote on the order you want them in. And I can't make promises now, but if all goes well with Dino Storm 2, then you'll spinoffs with all the kids too. Also, mention if you want a Chloe/Conner "moment". I'll probably have one but I'm not sure when. Thanks. –Storm2003
