Summary: Syd's POV on her new teammates.
Sometimes, I just don't get it.
I and my parents have fly all over the world and I have seen countless wonders. Oh, I especially love Paris during the springtime. Food and the fashion is the top of the line. My stomach is getting hungry just thinking about it. Okay, back on topic. I mean, I have study countless cultures and races and I still don't get it.
What is with the box? Why must everyone put things and people into boxes? Okay, I can understand that it make everything neat and pretty. You can add colorful wrapping paper and shiny labels. I know like my stuff put away in their little places but people don't belong in colorful boxes with labels.
For example, people put me in the blond box. Being blond, makes me instantly stupid and the focus of every blond joke in the academy. You know what I did about it? I train hard and study hard to become the best. In fact, no one has the nerve to make a blond joke in my presence now. My awards and achievements prove it. I wasn't going let a silly thing about being blonde direct my life.
The same goes for my teammates. Despite the many jokes about our team and our leader, we are the best. I just think they are jealous because we are better.
That Bridge for example, he is a goofy off the wall nut job. He always has something silly or goofy to say. You know what? He can fix anything and he doesn't mind doing it. In fact, he loves it. I have enough trouble putting together my dresser set. Mechanics are just not my thing. So, that why if anything mechanic is broken like my hair dyer, I go ask Bridge. Not only did he fix it but he made it work better. He always has a kind word to say about someone even if it is Sky.
Now Sky seems to think he should fit into his father's box. His father was the greatest red ranger that SPD ever produce. In many people's eyes, Sky was on his way to becoming the great ranger like his father. Sky is the prefect student with straight As and one of the highest training scores in the academy. He cannot settle anything less than perfection. So, it came to huge blow that he became the blue ranger instead of the red ranger. If Sky learn to loose up a bit, maybe things would have turn out differently.
Maybe, Jack wouldn't have become the red ranger. Then again, I doubt it. Jack is the type you couldn't put into a box even if you tried. Jack would take the box and make it into a paper airplane and then crush it. Jack seems be…I don't know how describe it…jumpy. He does things one way and then changes it the next minute. It is a little strange when you don't know what your leader is going to do or act in battle. I ask Z about it once. Z just shrugs her shoulders and said it is how Jack's reaction to the situation.
Who is Z? She is my roommate and Jack's best friend. Z was a thief from the streets but now she is the yellow ranger. One of our first missions was to bring Z and Jack in. I was eager to see how my training would pay off. It turns out to pretty lousy since I got my butt kick by Z. It was an unfair fight because she can duplicate herself. That is my story and I am sticking to it. Z is everything I am not. She is messy, likes loud music, and doesn't have a formal education or training. Don't let that fool you for a second. Once you get to know her, Z is an insightfully, smart, quick witted, and can think on her feet kind of person.
So, I just don't get it. People don't belong in boxes. My teammates don't belong in boxes.
That is my story and I am sticking to it.
The End
A/N: Whoa! It is finish! YAY! I hope got down Syd's point of view. This was a toughie to write. Thanks to my reviewers. You guys are the best. : hugs her reviewers and give them cookies: I have another SPD story coming up. It isn't quite finish but it almost done. It is a surprise.
