DISCLAIMERAUTHOR'S NOTE
Nothing belongs to me, but Haim Saban, Fox Kids, and Disney. Resubmitted because I forgot to give you what was happening next time.
"Yeah! We annihilated that thing!" Ethan cheered. He pointed two fingers and made shooting noises. Everyone laughed.
"Calm down, Ethan," Rocky said.
"Hey, has anyone seen where Conner went to?" Rocky questioned.
"Yeah, I figured he'd be here," Aiesha continued. They were all at Reefside High.
"He said he had something to take care of," Jason replied with a shrug.
"He probably wanted to finish the float," Kira said.
"Float?" repeated Zack. Tommy explained what had happened.
"I remember when somebody else fixed a float," Jason stated.
"Yeah," Tommy recalled. They grinned at each other.
"So that's why you told Conner he could stay behind. He was following in your footsteps," Zack teased.
"Shut up, Zack," Tommy growled. Just then, they noticed Principal Randall talking with a group of people, while Krista watched unhappily.
"What do you suppose that's about?" Rocky asked.
"Let's check it out," suggested Kimberly. They walked up.
"Principal Randall, what is your basis of getting rid the school's flower bed?" a man asked. Cassidy, who rarely missed an opportunity to practice her calling, stuck a microphone in Principal Randall's face.
"It's an eyesore. It takes away from seriousness of the school and it doesn't belong," Principal Randall replied, glaring at the girl. Cassidy was undaunted and turned to Krista who had just stepped forward.
"It does belong! A lot of people really care about the garden!" Krista burst out.
"Ha. I'll believe that when I see it," Principal Randall scoffed. As if to belie her distrust, Conner came in carrying something. Krista gasped, put her hands over her mouth, then brought them down to the side, palms together.
"That's my float!" she exclaimed.
"He finished it!" Kira cried. With that, she and the other Rangers followed Krista who was fast approaching Conner.
"Where do you want this, Krista?" he asked. She told him and he set it down.
"Oh...wow..." Krista's voice trailed off. "You did this for me?" she asked.
"The others helped," Conner stated.
"But Conner did most of the work," Kira added. With a happy exclamation, Krista gave Conner a hug and a kiss on the cheek.
"Aw, man. I just got a hug," Tommy groused. Kimberly whacked him on the arm.
"Ow," he complaimed, rubbing the sore spot.
"Well, Principal Randall, it would appear that the kids do care about the flower bed. Therefore, it stays," a woman said. The kids exploded into cheers as Principal Randall walked off in a huff.
"Well, you heard it here first: the Reefside High flower bed is here to stay. This is Cassidy Cornell signing off," Cassidy said. Then, she turned to Krista.
"Congratulations," she complimented.
"Thanks," was the response. The girls smiled at each other.
THE END

Will be the last story I write for a while. Will write again when I have a free break, which means a break with no home assignments.
