Disclaimer: Still not mine. Wish I could say I'm working on it, but I'm not, it costs way too much for me to buy it. I do own Toynee, Eyn, Zeyah, Liaum, Andrew, Aaron, Andrea and any other character you don't recognize from the original series. If not, I'll let you know.

Make A Wish!

Summary: Sequel to 'Born To Fly otherwise know as The Freak'. The rangers are offered to make wishes and see what could have been. At first it seems great, until they find out they're stuck and have to find a way back to their own universe.

Necroblade: Who ever said Nychelle is Dros' girlfriend? Small hints on the identity of his girlfriend are carefully placed in the chapters. Am not saying you're wrong, but neither am I saying you're right. I'll just remind you of one critical hint. Dros woke up with his lover in chapter 2 and Nychelle said she didn't know he was back. Hint, hint.

Firehunter: I'll see what I can do. I know I'm sinister, I love toying around with my readers, sending their thoughts in the wrong direction and stuff, but I can't help it, it's fun. :grins evilly:

Arwennicole: No need to wait longer. Hope you update soon too.

Starlight63: Hey, someone actually paid enough attention to mention that. Same goes for you as I said to Necroblade. If Nychelle is Dros' girlfriend, how come she didn't know the rangers were back? For Dros' woke up with his lover at the end of chapter 2.

Jeanka: Who's kid? What kid? Karlesha? She's Eyn's sister. How do I get these chapters out so fast? Uh, well once I'm in the story, the words just keep flowing with sometimes a break from my brains. I don't have a clue how to continue when it decides to do that. Second, I know it's bad, but writing mostly comes before homework, it's more fun. Third, I have an overactive imagination, helps a lot with the word flow. And last but not least, I finally have a beta-reader I can work with: Jenny. If I mail her the new chapter in the evening before I go to bed, I have the corrected version in the morning so I can update before I go to school.

Jenny: A review is a review, being early or late doesn't change that. :smiles: Don't worry, be happy, things will turn out fine. I already decided how to reveal Dawn's boyfriend, but it does take her out of the team for a while. You'll find out what I mean soon enough. You're not the only one totally crazy about Andros and Ashley, I had them as wallpaper of my laptop for I don't know how long. Oh and the only one that needs to study around here is me, but I like writing better. I hate studying hard only to find out you failed the test. You and the other reviewers make writing one of the most fun things for me, for every review proves I'm not entirely useless.

Lucy E: Now their going to meet the Karovan ranger's parents and after that Dawn will have to quit the team for a while, but I'm not going to tell why.

Chapter 10

Karlesha's exclamation must have been audible inside the buildings, for some front doors opened and more people appeared in the opening of the double doors.

"Took you long enough." A man in the opening of the red front door called, smiling.

"Something came up." Dros called back, repeating Dawn's words of this morning.

"Something always comes up." The man retorted.

"Where have I heard that before?" Meatball laughed.

"Visitors?" A woman asked from her spot in the open double doors.

"They're from another dimension." Eyn replied, trying to pry his sister out of Dawn's arms.

"Leave her alone, Eyn. She obviously likes me better."

"Hey Aunt Tila." Nychelle greeted, finally letting go of Andros and skipping over to the woman who just spoke.

"Hey Nychel." The woman replied, hugging her niece.

"Why don't we go inside and you can tell us all about it." A woman that joined the main in the door opening of the red door said.

"Good idea, mom." Asty said and walked over to the open double doors.

The inside of the building was one large room. Two long tables stood on either side of the door, going from the door to the back wall. Benches were placed at the table so you could sit. On the right side of the door was a bar.

"This is our community room." Dros explained. "You might want to sit down. I don't think we'll be leaving for some time."

They did as they were told and sat down. All the Karovan rangers sitting next to their parents with Karlesha on Dawn's lap, but that didn't stop her from shifting around.

"Hey, twerp, stop that." Dawn warned.

"Braid my hair?" The girl replied.

Dawn smiled and put her on the bench before moving herself to the table with Karlesha between her legs. Eyn's mother laughed.

"No one was allowed to braid it today. She stubbornly kept saying you needed to do it."

"That's because she's good at it." Karlesha defended.

"Who do you think touched her?" Andros' mother replied.

"Dawn needs to do it." Karlesha said, stubbornly.

Dawn smiled and shot a quick look around the room.

"Well, I would do a much better job braiding if I had a brush."

Suddenly a brush came flying from somewhere behind the bar and hovered in front of Dawn. It wasn't clear who had brought it there, but Dawn must have known who did it, for her smiled brightened and she snatched it out of the air and called her thanks to no one in particular.

If she hadn't been looking, Ashley wouldn't have seen the twinkle in Meatball's eyes and Dros turning his head to him and rolling his eyes.

"So, what have we missed?" Tila asked.

The Karovan rangers started to explain what was going on and along the way, the Turbo and Astro rangers started to give their own input to the story and the slight tension that was still there from being in a different dimension, disappeared.

Ashley kept quiet, though. Watching Dawn braid Karlesha's hair into a combination braid. Dawn looked up for a moment and smiled at Ashley. All too soon for Ashley's liking, Dawn took the blue scrunch from Karly's wrist and tied it around the end of the braid.

"There, all done. Now go show your brother."

Karly jumped up and bounced over to Eyn, interruption his story. Dawn watched the girl go, but kept sitting on the table, resting her elbows on her legs and her head in her hands.

"You look beautiful, Karl. Good job, Dawn." Eyn said, smiling at Dawn.

Dawn returned the smile back absently, obviously lost in thought.

"What ya thinking about?" Asty asked.

"What we're going to do when Say gets here." Dawn answered.

"He's coming?" Andros' father asked.

"Yeah." Dawn replied.

"Why haven't I ever heard you talk about this 'Say' before?" Nychelle asked.

"Say doesn't like it. Nobody even knows that he comes here." Dawn said.

"I want to meet him." Nychelle stated.

"No." Liaum disagreed.

"But Liaum." Nychelle whined. "I'm your cousin."

"And that's why you know more than others, but you are not meeting him. You blab too much. If Say wanted people to know where he was, he would tell them. Since he doesn't, we aren't going to ruin that cover for him. There's a reason for this secrecy you know." Liaum snapped.

"Say falls under the category ranger business of the highest level." Dawn added.

"You knowing he comes here is already too much." Dros agreed.

"But Dros…" Nychelle pouted.

"That doesn't work on me, Nychel and you know it." Dros said sternly. "Say is our business and he stays our business."

"And even if he wasn't, we wouldn't let you meet him." Zeyah put in. "Knowing you, you'd be all over him and he comes here for a break, not to pick up girls."

"I'm not interested in that. I'm quite happy with my boyfriend, thank you."

The longer Ashley was in the presence of Nychelle, the more spoiled she found the other.

"Eyn?" Karly's voice was soft as if she didn't want to interrupt.

"What's up, Karly?" Eyn asked, turning his attention to his sister.

"When Say's here, will he play with me again?"

Eyn smiled.

"You know he will. He loves it, remember. You remind him of his own sister, though not much younger than him."

"Yay!"

"Dawn does have a point, though. What do we do when Say's here?" Dros asked, bringing them back to the original subject.

"Does that mean I have to leave the room again?" Karly asked.

"Not only you." Dawn assured her. "Would you mind waiting on the courtyard for a few minutes?"

"Of course not." Deana replied. "Ranger business comes first. Come on, guys, let's go."

Everyone not allowed to stay got up and left, but Karly didn't move, looking a little lost.

"Ashley." Dawn called.

Ashley stopped dead in her tracks and turned around.

"Would you watch Karly? Tell her about one of your fights or something, she'll love it."

"Sure." Ashley smiled. "Coming, Karlesha?"

"You can call me Karly if you want." Karly replied, skipping over to the hand Ashley was holding out, slipping her hand in it.

"Alright, Karly. How 'bout I tell you about the time we ran into a wasp with a heart?"

"Really?"

"Yeah."

Dawn smiled at her other self and Karly. Once they were out of the door, she turned her attention back to her teammates and their parents.

"So…" Dros' father started. "What do we do? We can't have a dead ranger walking around here with the big change he runs into the wrong person, but we can't have a ghost ranger taking a vacation here either."

"The Megaship is no option. It's not fair to isolate him just because we have some visitors." Dawn put in.

"And telling him he can't come is out of the question." Meatball's mother said.

"A chaperone making sure he doesn't run into the others?" Liaum suggested.

"Say has five years on us!" Zeyah protested. "You can't honestly ask us to baby-sit him! He would laugh at you right in your face if you told him that."

"He is empathic." Eyn said. "Maybe that can help him keep out of the other's way?"

"Maybe, maybe not." Dros muttered. "We don't even know what state he's in this time. Maybe he's too tired to do anything but sleep and with a little luck the others are gone before he's 'recharged'."

"You're asking for a miracle." Dawn informed him. "You know we have the worst case of bad luck when it comes to these things. If you ask me, he wasn't stubborn this time and isn't half as tired as the worst we've seen him. With our luck all he needs is one day of rest and a week of taking it easy before he's ready to go again. Making the change very large that he'll run into our visitors."

"Everything always happens at once, doesn't it?" Dros' sighed, not knowing how right he would turn out to be.

A/N: Give a big hand to the first beta-reader that has proven I can work with; Jenny. Read her story, it's good. She's written it under the author's name: Silia. Hope you liked it. Please review.
