You Can Have The Best Of Me
Chapter 11: Rain Down.
Conner and Kira waited there for what seamed like forever. Time was going slow and they were both worried about the others. Conner kept looking out the window, waiting for something to happen. His patient was drawing thin and he was tired of sitting around waiting. Even if he was in cast, he still could do something.
He shook his head, "I got to go help." He spoke out loud.
Kira raised her head and stared at him. She stood up and went to him. Conner slowly moved off the bed, trying to get out. Kira placed her hand on his shoulder and shook her head.
There's that place
A good place to start
There's that end
That's the beginning of it all
Are you that girl
That's going to break my heart
I don't wanna be me
When disappointment makes its call
"I have too." He told her.
She continue to shake her head.
He looked down at the ground and then back at her, "Look, unless your going to say something, you really can't stop me."
Conner slowly moved himself closer off the bed. He was about to jump off when the Doctor came in.
He chuckled, "Trying to run away huh? A broken arm and a leg wont get you very far Conner." He told him.
The doctor walked over and pushed him back on the bed. Conner groaned in dsapointment that he got caught. The Doctor inspected his body, to see how is wounds were doing. He raised an eyebrow when he noticed something wasn't right.
"Wasn't there a cut in the side of your stomach?" He asked as he took a look.
Conner looked where he pointed and noticed that the skin was fully healed. He felt his face and saw that the scars were less noticeable.
He began to chuckle, "The Dino gem. Dino DNA."
The doctor gave a puzzled look, "What?" He asked.
Conner shook his head, "Never mine." He said.
Conner took his free arm and began to pull on his cast.
"Conner, what are you doing!?" The doctor yelled.
Kira stood there watching as he pulled harder on the cast, ripping it right off. Conner wiggled his once bounded arm around and felt little pain. The doctor stood there in shock as he continue to pry away at the casts. He tugged at his leg cast, tearing it off slowly, using as much strength as he can. He then wiggled his toes and continue to laugh. He moved his legs towards the edge of the bed and hoped out.
If you don't know by now
All my hope it gone
"Thanks for everything Doc. We'll send you the bill by mail." He joked as he grabbed Kira and ran out the door.
Conner brust through the hospital door and outside. Majority of his strength had return, but not all of it. He could feel himself getting stronger though. Kira held his hand tightly as she looked around. Cars were passing by and people were walking across the street. She was looking to see where Tommy and Ethan could be battling. They had to be somewhere.
"We have to get to the base." Conner told her and pulled her onto his back, "Hold on tightly, I'm going fast."
She closed her eyes as he used his dino speed to get to Hayley. Seeing how he didn't have a car anymore, this was the only way. He ran as fast as he could, minutes later he found himself in front of the house. Kira hoped off and they both ran up into the house and down into the secret basement. Hayley was sitting on the computer, monitoring the battle. She was typing a few things in the computer when she turned around and noticed Conner. She stood up.
"Conner.. how is this possible?" She asked
He smiled, "I think its the Dino DNA." He replied
She thought for a sec, "Yeah, might be. I've been doing research and noticed that there were a few more effects to fusing your DNA with dino DNA. This might be one of them."
You must know
Know what you want
And if you go
It don't matter who is at fault
Now I see
I'm up against the wall
Don't wanna be me
When disappointment makes its call
"Never mine that!" He exclaimed, "I need my moprher!"
She nodded and handed it to him, "Will you be all right? Your not at full strength."
He looked at Kira and stuck the moprher on, "Keep her here. I'll be back." He told her.
He turned around and go into a moprher position. Kira watched, she closed her eyes and then opened them as the brace reacted to his call.
"Dino Thunder! Power Up! Ha!" He shouted
Conner ran to where the battle was located. It was being held near the bay. Ethan and Tommy were doing everything they could to keep the white dino thunder back.
"He's too strong Dr. O." Ethan shouted.
Tommy sighed, "We got to stop him. He wants that egg inside."
"You think that's what he's after?" Ethan asked.
"Drago Laser Arrows...fire" The White ranger shouted.
Ethan and Tommy jumped out of the way of the explosion. Suddenly the White Ranger was hit a few times and he stumbled back. He looked up t see Conner riding on his raptor cycle, firing with his thunder blaster.
"Conner!?" Ethan and Tommy chorus
Conner stopped in front of them and gave them a thumbs up before flipping off the bike and turning towards the evil ranger.
"Is this possible? Your suppose to be dead." The white ranger sneered.
All I know is that…
If you don't know by now
All my hope is gone
Conner grinned, "Sorry to disappoint you whitey but you can't get rid of the guy in red."
"We'll see about that!" The white ranger laughed.
Conner charged forward, transforming his blaster into the thunder max sword. He swung against the White Ranger's saber and they both clashed. Ethan and Tommy stood in the side line as they battled. The white ranger dodged one of Conner's swing and slashed him in the stomach. He then spun around and round house kicked him in the head. Conner flew back and on the ground.
"Damn, your a pain." Conner groaned as he got up.
He charged back forward and attempted another swing, but the white ranger dodged and hit him back again. Kira was watching on the computer back at the dino base. She kept her fist clenched and her eyes glued on the screen. She started to mutter a few words, but nothing but silence came out. She watched as Conner was thrown back into a gate and pinned against fence.
"Co..." She started to say out loud.
Hayley came from the backroom when she heard a faint voice.
"Conn." Kira struggle to say as she watch him get thrown into the building.
"Kira?" Hayley asked, not sure if it she was talking.
Kira's eyes widen as Conner was thrown to the ground. Ethan and Tommy tried to help him but was thrown back.
"Conner!" Kira finally bursted out, "CONNER! CONNER!" She continue to scream.
Kira's eyes shifted to the corner where she saw her brace on a table. She ran over and grabbed it.
"Kira don't!" Hayley screamed.
"Dino Thunder Power up!! Ha!" She screamed.
Kira transformed into her yellow suite and ran towards the bay. The white ranger was about to slash at Conner when he was hit multiple times. Kira ran forward and punched him in the stomach, sending him flying into a gas tank nearby.
Oh yea…it's so hard to say
Seems to be this day
Seems to be that way
I don't know what to tell you
I don't know what to tell you
It's so hard to believe that this could be the end
"Conner!" She screamed.
"Kira!? Your voice. It came back!" He exclaimed
She helped him up and gave him a hug, "Oh my god."
Kira wasn't sure what had gotten into her, but she knew she cared for him very much. So much has happen, and he was always there. Conner broke her silence, she would die if anything would happen to him. Suddenly the yellow gem began to react, becoming unstable. It was starting up again.
"Kira, you have to umoprh!" Conner demanded.
She shook her head, trying to fight the pain, "The White ranger is going down. I'm going to make sure of it." She told him
She turned around and started to walk towards the evil ranger. The yellow gem began to glow brightly and pain was surging through her body. She ignored it and took out her weapons.
"The gem. Give in to it, let the evil feed off of you Kira." The white ranger spoke, "It's only doing what it was ment to do. Just like my gem."
"No stupid evil gem thing is going to stop me." She forced the words out. She got into her yellow dino ranger pose, the yellow gem glowed a bright yellow before the light began to fade away, "I wont sink to your level. I'm better then that."
The gem began to restore back to normal. Kira's determination and good heart was reawakining the good. She grinned as the pain let up and she was able to stand straight up.
"We shall meet again." The white ranger growled before disapearing.
Ethan and Tommy ran over and umoprhed. Kira and Conner did the same. They exchanged looks, both with experssion of concern and relief.
"I think that did it." Tommy pointed out, "The gem should be okay for now. Wiether it will start to react again, i'm not sure. I should check it out"
"At least Kira's voice is back." Ethan said happily.
If you don't know by now
All my hope is gone
If you don't know by now
Where did I go wrong
"Yeah and at least Conner isn't all broken or anything." Kira joked with a smile
Conner rolled his eyes, "I see you haven't lost your cruel sense of humor."
Tommy looked up at the sky. Dark clouds were rolling in, a thunder storm was coming.
"Hope Mesogog will cancel any of his plans on account of rain." He said.
Ethan nodded, "Come on Dr O, let's find this dino egg and then head back to base. Will you two be alright?"
Kira smiled, "Yeah we will. Come on Conner." She exclaimed and grabbed his hands.
Conner waved to the others and followed Kira to the park. She let go and spun around through the park.
"Your in a good mood now." Conner said surprisingly.
She nodded, "I thought I was going to lose everything in that accident." She admitted to him.
"Oh really? Like what?" He asked.
She stopped spinning and walked towards him, "My family. My friends. Being 17." She listed and stopped two inches away from him, "Being with you." She finished off with.
Conner smiled, trying not blush. The clouds had darken and the sky began to rumble. Kira took a step forward and wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him. The moment they locked lips, it began to pour heavily upon them. They stood there in the warm rain, still kissing. A flash of lightening and a rumble of thunder echoed in the background. Both of them were comepletley soaked but they were still going at it. Finally Conner broke away and he looked up at the sky, letting the rain fall on his face. He began to laugh as he stretched his arms out in the air. Kira looked up also and then back at Conner. She brushed the wet hair out of her face as smiled.
"That was interesting." Conner spoke up.
Kira rolled her eyes, trying not to giggle, "I'll see you in school?"
He nodded, "You betcha."
She turned around and slowly walked away through the rain. She glanced back and ran her hands through her hair before she continue walking. Conner stood there with his hands in his pocket as he watched. He bit his lips and turned to walk the other way. He felt a huge rush of excitment hit him. He couldn't help but start to run and laugh. This was the best moment of his life. He jumped off the bench and onto the grass. He then tripped and fell onto the ground. He rolled and laid on his back, looking up at the sky.
"Your the man Conner." He told himself.
