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, but not Saryn, I nicked him from Starhawk. 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: Sure Zhane and Karone are going to end up together, they're perfect for each other. You're right Andros and Ashley were lucky Zhane showed up, they're not allowed to go that far just yet. It would screw up my story.
Maiken: Jups, heel handig. Heb weer een nieuwe fic bedacht. Zal als je weer online bent het bestandje wel ff sturen.
Arwennicole: Glad you liked it. Hope I didn't make you wait too long.
Jenny: Yeah, it's that Tessa, but since she's not going to be in the rest of the story yet, I don't have to put it into the disclaimer. I just used her name. I could translate what I'm saying to Maiken for you, if you want. Right now I told her I thought of another new fic and I'll sent it to her when I talk to her again. You'll see it soon too.
Lucy E: I stole what Zhane said. Kinda. Just like what Ashley's going to say near the end of the chapter. Glad you liked it.
Starlight63: Well, it's going this way:
Phantom Rogue: Real live sucks, that's why I write. I can escape reality for a while.
Juzblue: How am I going to react to that? You make it really hard. I guess the only thing I can say to that is :grins:
Velvet regret: Love English too, ben er beter in dan in het Nederlands. :wordt rood: Ashley was zeker 'blunt', maar ik had dat al zo lang in mijn hoofd zitten en het klonk zo grappig, dat ik het wel zo moest doen.
The-power-of-love: Hope to talk to you soon on aim, for I really need you help with a fic. Glad you liked it.
Chapter 15
Dawn sighed, this didn't look good. While the others were explaining their dimension to the visitors, Karly had bounced in with a datapad. 'Compliments of Say', she had said as she handed it to her.
The datapad held the result of their research for a way to get the other rangers back home. The answer was now in her hands, but she didn't need to look at the numbers and writing to know this was going to take a lot of energy. Energy that would take at least a week to be gathered, probably more. And that was the least of a problem.
The portal that needed to be used, required a lot of difficult math formulas, some she never even heard of.
She could do it; there was no question in that. Math was one of her best subjects at school. But the amount of time she needed to get it finished, that was what was bothering her. It could be days, weeks, months even, maybe even longer. Especially if she didn't finish this before the last month of her pregnancy.
Dros would be able to care for this baby alone, she had no doubt of that and his parents would probably help out whenever they could, but she didn't want to be spending her day behind a computer screen, trying to figure out how to open the right dimensional portal, when she could be spending it with her new born.
Her sigh must have been auditable over the conversation, for the control room had quieted and they were all looking at her curiously.
"We found a way to send you guys back." She sighed again.
Her heart sank when the other rangers looked delighted. She hated to wipe those smiles away.
"But getting the right portal is tricky and takes a lot of calculating. One flaw might send you to the wrong dimension. Not only that, but opening such a portal is going to take a lot of energy."
"In other words, we'll be stuck here for a while longer." Andros concluded.
"Three more weeks and we've missed graduation." Carlos sighed.
"Don't remind me." TJ complained. "We are going to be in so much trouble when we finally get back."
"Jeff is probably freaking out already." Ashley muttered, upset.
Andros quickly wrapped his arms around her and kissed the top of her head.
"Don't worry about him. He knows better than anyone else, you're able to take care of yourself."
"You do too." Ashley retorted. "I dare you to say you wouldn't worry if you were still there."
"That's different."
"How?" Ashley demanded softly.
"You're not the other half of his soul." Andros whispered in her ear.
"Point taken."
Andros smiled, but didn't let go of her and she didn't care. His embrace ensured her that, eventually, everything would be all right.
Suddenly the alarm sounded.
"Not again." Liaum complained. "This is really starting to annoy me."
"Let's move out." Dros ordered. "Dawn…"
"I know, I know, I'm sitting this one out, just like every other fight for the coming ten months or so." Dawn replied.
Dros smiled a little, before teleporting out with the rest of his team.
"Why are you sitting the fights out?" Deana asked.
"Mind if I tell you guys tonight at dinner?" Dawn replied.
"Yes." Jeff answered. "But since you aren't going to tell us before anyway, we'll just have to wait."
"You're having dinner with us?" Darien said at the same time. "Wow, what made you decide to grace us with your presence again?"
"Could one of you inform dad, so he won't be working overtime today? It's really important."
"Sure, I'll go." Daniel offered and dashed out the room.
Dawn turned her attention to the viewing screen, which was showing the fight. She winced when Dros was knocked down. She so badly wanted to be there watching his back, but he could take care of himself and he didn't need to worry about her and the baby's safety on top of his own.
As she continued to watch the fight go on, she couldn't help but get the feeling they were trying to lure her out.
After ten minutes it became painfully obvious her teammates were being toyed with. A minute later, she turned away from the screen.
"I can't watch this anymore without being able to suppress the urge to join in." She stated.
"Your morph. It's the same as mine, isn't it?" Ashley's question took everyone by surprise.
"We don't have the sunglasses-function in our visors." Andros answered, before she could open her mouth.
The reason behind Ashley's question might be lost on him, but it got through to Dawn all the more clearly.
"Take my morpher, we tempered with it a little more than just the sunglasses-function after Asty joined."
Ashley nodded, pulling her morpher of and handing it to Andros, before walking over and taking the morpher Dawn held out to her.
"Let's rocket." Ashley cried out and entered the morphing sequence.
The rush of power flowed through her veins. It had been a while since she felt it, but even more alien was the sudden knowledge of all the upgrades the Karovan Rangers had given their morphs.
"Deca, teleport Ashley to the battle." Dawn's voice ordered, cutting through the temporary fog in her mind.
A yellow light took over her vision for a moment, then the battle formed around her.
"Dawn?" Asty asked.
Unfamiliar fighting techniques kicked in when a monster moved in on her. She ducked his blow and landed her elbow in his stomach, spinning and ended up behind Asty to cover her back.
"Ash." She replied firmly. "I'll explain later."
Asty gave her a court nod before turning her full attention to the fight.
It was a strange experience. The Karovan rangers had been present in the back of her mind ever since she arrived here, but now it was as if she was a seventh part of one entity. Her telepathic senses were on full alert and the presences of the other rangers pressed against her own.
Between dodging blows, throwing punches, and delivering kicks, her mind found some spare time to come to the conclusion that her arrival had only improved the situation marginally and before she fully registered what happened, two monsters were holding her tightly.
Looking around she noticed she wasn't the only one caught.
The monster that was obviously the leader positioned himself in front of Dros.
"Give up yet?" He taunted.
"Never!" Dros growled.
"It's always the same with you rangers, never know when to give up."
"And you're obviously not familiar with KO-35, for if you were, you'd know the wind has punches." Zeyah retorted.
"What do you me…" The monster could not finish his sentence, before he went flying through the air.
The monster to Ashley's right suddenly collapsed and she took full advantage of it, not even thinking about what had happened to it. She swung her now free hand to punch the monster on her left. It caught her fist, but she used her momentum to continue to spin, taking the monster with her and slamming it into a tree.
"Monster, meet tree." She commented. "You two make a lovely couple."
She heard Meatball snigger from somewhere behind her, but she didn't pay attention to it as she once again threw herself into the fight.
Dodging, kicking, punching and blocking, she suddenly sensed an unfamiliar, yet familiar presence flanking her, but she saw nobody. Not really caring at the moment, she ignored it, but she knew it was going to come back to haunt her later.
A/N: A bit shorter than normal, but I hope you liked it. Sorry it took so long. School decided to have a sudden need of attention from me. Please review.
