Chapter 18: Please Remember
Everyone stood out from where the Aqua-Base sat. All of the Red Rangers and their wives were going back home. Each of the Lightspeed Rangers said goodbye to their friends. Kimberly sighed as she stood in front of her friends. "It was great being back in action again, thanks," she told them. She walked over and embraced Dana.
"You are welcome to Mariner Bay whenever you want," Dana assured her.
Time, sometimes the time just slips away
And your left with yesterday
Left with the memories
I, I'll always think of you and smile
And be happy for the time
I had you with me
Though we go our separate ways
I won't forget so don't forget
The memories we made
"Hey, you guys are still invited to Ryan and Kelsey's wedding," Dana reminded. Tommy and the rest of them nodded.
"We'll be sure to come," Wes assured them.
"It's been a blast, but let's not do it again anytime soon," Cole stated.
"Trust me, we don't want to go through the same thing again," Joel agreed.
Once they watched their friends go back home, they all looked at each other. "So, Joel, what are you Angela going to do?" Carter asked.
"Angela and I are going to take our son and go back home," Joel replied.
"I'm heading back to work. I can't wait to be with Clara again," Chad stated.
"What about you, Carter? What do you and Dana plan on doing?" Kelsey asked.
Carter wrapped an arm around Dana's shoulders with a grin. "We're going to go back home and raise Destiny the way she should be," Carter replied. They looked back to where the Aqua-Base was sitting. Memories of all the times they shared both times they were rangers came back into their minds. Now they were parting once again.
Please remember, please remember
I was there for you
And you were there for me
Please remember, our time together
The time was yours and mine
While we were wild and free
Please remember, please remember me
Goodbye, there's just no sadder word to say
And it's sad to walk away
With just the memories
Who's to know what might have been
We'll leave behind a life and time
We'll never know again
Dana walked over and hugged Kelsey. Ryan and Kelsey were going to go back to their new home they had moved to before coming back to Mariner Bay, Reefside. Dana hugged Ryan with a sad sigh. Ryan hugged his sister back and kissed the side of her head. He then looked at Carter. "You better take care of her," he insisted.
"I will, don't you worry," Carter assured him.
Once Chad said goodbye, he walked to his car and drove off. Joel had his family waiting in the car so he said his goodbyes and left. With Kelsey's help, Ryan got into the car and they went back home. Dana looked at Destiny, who was asleep in her stroller. "Now what do we do, Carter?" She asked.
"We go home," he replied.
Dana nodded before they left.
Please remember, please remember
I was there for you
And you were there for me
And remember, please remember me
(Two Months Later)
Everyone was celebrating Ryan and Kelsey's marriage. All of the rangers were there. Dana was sitting at the table with Destiny sitting in her lap. She watched as Andros and Ashley greeted Leo, Karone, Lacy, and Kailey. She smiled at the family before looking over at her husband to see him talking to Ryan. Destiny started to whimper and she knew that Destiny wanted Carter. "Carter," she called. Carter walked over and she placed Destiny into his arms. "She wanted you," she informed. Carter sat down with Destiny in his arms with a smile. Dana then walked over to Kelsey with a grin. "So, how does it feel to be Mrs. Ryan Mitchell?" She asked.
"It feels different, but I'll get used to it," Kelsey replied.
Dana hugged Kelsey with a smile. "Do you have to stay in Reefside? You can always come back to Mariner Bay," she insisted.
"We'd love to, but we like it in Reefside. Besides, we have new neighbors," Kelsey stated.
"Really, who are they?" Dana asked.
Kelsey gestured over to Tommy and Kimberly. "They moved to Reefside not too long ago. Tommy got a job offering as a high school science teacher," Kelsey replied.
"That's interesting."
Kelsey nodded and then Ryan wrapped his arms around Kelsey's waist. Dana smiled as she went over to talk to her friends.
Please remember, please remember
I was there for you
And you were there for me
Please remember, our time together
The time was yours and mine
While we were wild and free
Then remember, please remember me
A year later, Dana was tending to a girl's broken wrist when her nurse came in. "Dr. Grayson, this came in for you," she informed. Dana let the girl go and took the letter. She opened it and read it.
Dear Dana,
We are happy to inform you that Kelsey and I are proud parents to little Katrina Rebecca Mitchell. We'll be coming to town in a few days for you to see her. Make sure to tell Carter.
Sincerely Your Brother,
Ryan
And how we laugh and how we smile
And how this world was yours and mine
And how a dream was out of reach
I stood by you, you stood by me
We took each day and made it shine
We wrote our names across the sky
We ride so fast, we ride so free
I had you and you had me
Dana smiled and looked over at her desk to see her and Carter's wedding picture. Destiny's baby picture was sitting by it and next to that was a picture of all of the Red Rangers and their wives by them at Ryan and Kelsey's wedding. She picked up the phone and called Carter's cell-phone. "Carter, you're not going to believe this," she told him.
Please remember, please remember
