Disclaimer: Well, as usual, I only wish I owned the rangers. I do have some
original characters but you should know by now who they are.
AN: Thanks to all of you who reviewed. I had originally started this second part one way but it changed as I wrote. Go figure huh? Well, I hope you like how it's progressing so far. From certain reviews, I can tell that somebody loves it. And to Lovewildfire, you were pretty close on your guess but not quite. But I still think you will like the visitor. Now, on to the visitor!
The Visitors
The newcomer walked in the room and smiled. "Hello Trini. Nice to see you and your friends again."
"What are you doing here" Sarah smiled as he joined her next to the bed.
He smiled and wrapped an arm around her. "I came to visit you for the weekend and they told me that you were here with Trini."
Sarah smiled and turned towards Billy. "Billy, this is my fiancé Eric. Eric, this is Billy, Kim, and Tommy. We haven't found out the others names yet."
Eric smiled at Billy. "It's nice to finally meet you Billy. Sarah keeps telling me how Trini always talks about you." He winked at Trini and grinned. "Sounds like you've got your hands full with her."
"Hey! I'm right here you know!" Trini laughed and turned towards the couple in the corner. "Billy, this is Billy and his mom. They came to see how I was doing."
The boy looked over at Billy and grinned from his wheelchair. "You're the genius from Angel Grove? Cool!"
Billy smiled. "Yes I am. And your dad told me about you. I heard you are a big fan of the power rangers."
"Yeah! I like the blue ranger. Daddy says he's always showing up with the answer. I think he's a genius like me." The boy looked over at the group of teens. "Do any of you know the rangers?"
"Billy, what did I tell you about the rangers?" John walked into the room and shook Trini's hand. "Thanks for doing what you did."
"You told me that they probably don't want anyone to know their identity." He looked over at the teens and frowned. "I'm sorry."
"How would you like to meet some of them?" Jason smiled as the boy's eyes widened. "I mean we are always seeing them around so I am sure I could get one of them to pose for a picture or something." He glanced over to see Tommy nodding and closing the door and blinds.
"Really? That would be so cool!" The boy watched as the rangers lined up. "How?"
Billy smiled at his friends and nodded. Immediately they morphed into their ranger uniforms. "Like that Billy." He took his helmet off and knelt down next to the boy. "I want you to have this." He handed the boy a gold coin.
He smiled as they demorphed and looked at the coin. "What is this?"
"I made it when I was on another planet with those alien rangers. I had to stay there while I was being treated for something. It is a replica of my power coin." Billy smiled as the boy fingered the edge of the coin.
"Wow!" He looked over at Trini. "You are a ranger too aren't you?" When she nodded, he looked up at his dad. "I knew she was a good one to go with."
Trini smiled as Sarah and the mom laughed. She frowned as she remembered something. "Billy, why didn't you hesitate when I came up to you? You seemed to know something."
The rangers looked at Trini in wonder as she watched the boy. "What do you mean Trini?" Billy walked up to her and took her hand. "Did you feel anything?"
"I felt something when I took his hand." She looked at the boy. "You felt something too didn't you?"
The boy nodded and looked at his mom. When she nodded, he looked over at them. "I felt like I was connected to you in some way. I had an image of a tiger and wolf in my dreams last night and it popped into my head again when you took my hand."
Billy stiffened at the word wolf and grinned at Trini. "It wasn't a dream Billy. It was a vision." He smiled at the confused boy. "I am the wolf and Trini is the tiger. We are getting married this summer." He knelt down in front of the boy. Why did you trust her when she took your hand?"
"I heard some voice in my head telling me to stick with my own kind and that she would help me." He looked over at Trini. "What does that mean?"
Billy laughed. "It means that you have a spirit animal of either a wolf or a tiger." He looked at Tommy. "Tommy's grandfather is a Native American. He taught me long ago that every person has a spirit animal. Your mind is smart enough to know how to use nature and connect with it. Now, do you have any other dreams or visions that have any of these animals in them?"
"Well, I've been having a few all this past week that have a tiger in them. I don't know why it's running though. Its almost as if it is playing with some friends. The wolf pops up once in a while."
"You are connected to your spirit Billy." Tommy knelt down in front of him. "That tiger is your spirit form. The wolf is the spirit of the person who will be closest to you. It could be either a future girlfriend or your best friend. When you have these visions in your dreams, you must pay close attention to all the details."
"I write them down as soon as I wake up so I don't forget them." He looked at Trini. "Is that why I felt at ease with you?"
She nodded. "Your spirit called out to mine and that is why I could feel it too."
John shook his head. "This is all too much for me." He laughed. "We not only meet the rangers but we also find out the reason for Billy's dreams!"
Jason laughed. "Well, you wished you knew what was going on with his dreams!" He turned to the mother. "Kimberly, make sure he keeps writing them down. When he gets into high school, his friends will really start to show their animals."
She looked at him with a frown. "Why do you say that?"
Billy laughed. "Well, for some reason, we all started using animals in our screen names or other stuff. I know I for one started collecting wolf stuff. I know Trini has a bunch of tiger stuff."
Billy smiled and looked at his mom. "And I named the cat Tigris!"
"That's a perfect example Billy." Tommy laughed along with the others.
Eric shook his head and sat down. "Wow, this is a little too much for me to take in." He glanced up sheepishly as they all looked at him. "I have been teasing Sarah for a few years now about all the frogs she has."
Billy looked over at Tommy and Kim and all three of them started laughing. He sat down on the bed before he fell over laughing. "Tri..." he shook his head and pointed at Sarah.
Sarah looked at Trini in confusion. "What's he trying to say?" This brought about another round of laughter from Tommy and Kim as well as Zack and Jason. "What'd I say?"
Trini held her sides as she laughed. "I always had to translate for Billy when he used the scientific words." She glanced over to see him nod. "But when Eric mentioned the frogs, they were laughing because our friend Adam is the frog. And he didn't like it too much at first."
"Ah. I see." She looked at the others and they all began laughing again. "Well, when I come to the wedding, I will have to bring him a little gift. To show that frogs can be a good thing." She grinned as the rangers laughed again.
Eric shook his head. "Sarah, you find the strangest friends." He laughed as she smacked his arm. "But I am saying it like its a good thing!"
John laughed as he noticed his son yawning. "Well, it's been nice to meet all of you but we better get Billy back to his room before he falls asleep."
Kim nodded and shook the mother's hand. "You make sure he writes down anything he dreams of."
"I will. Thank you Kimberly." She grinned at having to say her own name. "That feels weird saying my own name."
"I know. But you can call me Kim." The lady nodded and waved as she followed her husband and son out the door. "Ok, now what do we do?"
Tommy sighed. "Well, we should get back to the command Center and let Zordon know what's going on." He turned to Trini. "We'll see you when you guys get back."
"Ok. See you later guys!" She watched as they teleported out. "Now, where is Eric gonna stay while he's here?" She turned to her roommate.
"He can stay with us." Zack smiled. "I still have that rollout bed that we used for you when we were cramming those long nights."
Eric nodded. "That's fine by me." He took the key from Zack. "I'll get my things and meet you back in your room." He waited until Sarah got her things and they left the trio alone.
Zack watched as Billy lay down next to Trini and reached for a blanket. "Well, I guess I should head out too." He took the blanket and helped Billy open it to cover himself. "I'll see you guys tomorrow morning."
Billy nodded and watched him leave. "Now, do you think you can get some good sleep?"
She smiled and leaned on his shoulder. "I can try. My side is killing me but I am comfortable now." She yawned and closed her eyes. "See you in the morning Billy."
"Good night Tiger." He smiled as she drifted off to sleep. He soon followed her.
THE NEXT MORNING
"Hey sleepyheads! Time to wake up and go home!" Zack laughed as Billy opened his eyes and groaned.
"Do you HAVE to be so cheery today?" Trini smiled as Billy got up and stretched. "We still have to tell our parents we are coming home."
"Already taken care of." He motioned to his device on the stand next to the bed. "I went back to the room and got it last night. Sarah said she would be packing your clothes. Or at least getting started."
Zack looked at him. "Who all knows we are coming home early?"
"Well, Zordon, Alpha, and our parents. But your parents will be picking you up at the airport." He turned to his device and checked for any email. "Zack, your parents told my dad and he will help the Kwans to get us into our homes unnoticed. They also said they will keep my dad and us informed as to what is going on with the others. They will talk to the other parents to keep the others busy." He glanced up to see them watching him. "What?"
Zack laughed. "Man, you know me and my parents too well! They played right into your hands didn't they?" He shook his head as Billy nodded. "Where will we stay until we actually go back to school?"
"His cabin!" Trini smiled as Billy nodded. "Ernie will be there with Bulk and Skull so we can get caught up there!"
They were distracted by a knock at the door. The nurse walked in with a smile. "Good morning. I'm here to check you out to make sure you are able to be released."
"Great. Billy, why don't you and Zack go down and get some breakfast. And bring me back something good." She smiled as Billy kissed her cheek and followed Zack out.
30 MINUTES LATER
Trini smiled as the door opened. She took the plate from Billy and gasped as Zack motioned an old man into the room, followed by Sarah and Eric. "What are you doing here?"
The old man smiled and sat down in the chair Billy moved over to the bed. "It's nice to see you again Trini."
Billy smiled and joined Trini on the bed. "We saw him at the cafeteria. He is visiting a friend." He saw the man nod. "We got to talking."
"About what?" She watched them exchange grins.
The man reached for their hands. "I sent you to my friend because I knew something would bring you two together. I could feel it when you were competing. My house was consumed in a fire and I now live closer to my cousins outside of Angel Grove."
Billy squeezed her hand as she looked at the man in confusion. "Master Chan has a proposition."
"He does?" She saw him nod. "What is it Master Chan?"
The old man smiled. "I need a couple of people to help me advertise my academy. I will be opening up my friend's academy in a few weeks. Would you be willing to join William in a few exhibitions?"
"But I haven't picked up my gear since I moved." She watched as Billy got up and walked to the window. "What's wrong?"
Billy watched as a small bird flew into the tree outside and right to a nest of 3 other birds. They seemed to be watching him. That's when he heard his mother's voice in his head. "We both stopped for different reasons." He turned back to her with his mind made up. "If we don't do this now, then we will never get around to it. Mom would want me to. Master Lu would want me to as well."
Trini saw a bird land on the windowsill behind Billy. It appeared to be watching her. Can that be her? She smiled as it nodded its head. "I'll do it."
Billy turned to see what she was looking at and saw the other 3 birds join it outside the window. He smiled and walked over to her. "We can refresh ourselves during our weeks off. Master Chan is flying back tomorrow."
Trini smiled as a thought popped into her mind. "You won't have to change your training techniques either will you?" She grinned as he shook his head and turned to her mentor. "You sent me to his Master for that reason didn't you?"
"We were alumnus of the same academy. We were also business partners before his wife got transferred." He smiled and took her hand in his. "Trini, things happen for a reason. My best friend had to leave so that he could help bring the two of you together. I must go now. I will see the two of you upon your return." He nodded to Zack as he walked to the door. "Farewell."
Trini smiled as she climbed off the bed and got her stuff around. "Do you think we are ready for this Billy? I haven't really thought about training again."
"Don't worry Trini. I saw the way you two were in that video. You know that deep down the both of you can still do it." Zack winked at Billy. "Besides, you'd be letting the guy down."
"Excuse me Miss Kwan. We need you to sign these papers before we can release you." The nurse walked through the door and waited patiently while she signed them. "Thank you. You kids have a nice day!"
"You too." Trini smiled as the nurse left. But the door was pushed back open and a small face popped around the edge. "Hey Billy! Come on in!" She gave him a hug and looked out the door. "Where are your parents? I have something to ask the three of you."
"They are signing some papers and will be here in a minute." He watched as she finished gathering her things. "Are you leaving now too?"
Billy smiled as she nodded. "Cool! We can all leave together!"
Zack laughed as the boy's parents walked in. "I guess we are ready to go!"
Billy smiled at John. "Good morning. I see Billy couldn't leave without saying hi."
"Yeah, he is always like that. Whenever he isn't at school or practicing he is in here sitting with the patients and cheering them up. He's like a little morale booster." John laughed as Billy's eyes widened at something Trini whispered to him. "Uh oh."
The young boy grinned. "Really? That would be so cool!"
Trini held out her hand and waited for him to take it. "Let's get out of here." She held out her other hand to her fiancé. "Ready?"
"You bet!" He laughed as his friend opened the door and they headed towards the elevator. The head nurse stopped them.
"Miss Kwan, the nurses and staff would like to give this to you." She handed a large envelope to Trini and a small medallion to her as well. "It's for all that you did for little Billy here. He's like an angel when he comes in here with his parents."
Trini smiled as she opened the envelope and pulled out a letter. "Holy cow!" She read the letter before handing it to Billy. "Oh, that is so sweet!" She showed them the contents of the envelope. "There is at least $500 in here!" She turned to the nurse. "You don't need to do this."
"The whole hospital knows him and if it hadn't been for you, then we all would have felt a loss. Because of you, the rest of the patients will be able to have their little visitor back to cheer them up. You deserve it." The nurse motioned to the small medallion. "That is from the President of the Board. He knows Billy well and has even been one of the patients that he visited. He says that anyone who risked their life to save that one boy, deserves an award."
Trini blushed as the nurses around them all applauded. "Thank you." She shook the head nurse's hand and followed her friends into the elevator. "I don't believe this. What will I do with this money?"
The boy looked at her in thought. "You could use it for your wedding!"
"No, I think I have a better idea. I can use it for a hotel for you and your parents." She looked at his parents. "I already told Billy. I wanted you to come to our wedding. It is this summer."
"We'd be honored to!" Kimberly smiled. "And we both have a few weeks of vacation to take so I think we will!"
Sarah snapped her fingers. "Hey! We have a guesthouse out near our house. And my neighbor's kids are about the same age as Billy." She turned to Trini. "Save your money for your wedding and honeymoon."
"She's got a point Trini." Billy smiled as they headed out of the building and into the sun. He grabbed a piece of blank paper from Trini's notebook and wrote a few things down. "Here Billy. This has our addresses on it. You can write us at either one. I want you to keep us informed on you and your parents."
Billy took the paper and nodded. "I will."
John shook Trini's hand and smiled. "We have to go the other way so you kids take it easy."
"Hey, you do the same." Trini smiled as they waved and headed off. She suddenly looked at her watch. "Oh my gosh! We have to get ready for the banquet tonight!"
Sarah froze. "I forgot about that!" She began to mentally go through her list of things to do and ran into a bush. "Ooops!"
Zack laughed. "Hey, we still have all day to get ready guys!" He watched as Sarah blushed. "Let's just get back to the dorm and get ready."
Trini smiled and helped her friend up from the ground. "I think I know what you can wear." She pulled her along towards the dorm.
5 HOURS LATER
Trini smiled at her reflection. "I can't wait to see their faces."
Sarah smiled behind her as someone knocked on the door. "Let's find out! She let the boys in and laughed as Billy stared. "I think he's speechless!"
Billy grinned as she slowly turned around for him. Her pale yellow dress had tiny blue and white flowers on it and the sheer fabric on the skirt billowed out when she turned. "You look beautiful."
She smiled as she touched her bare neck. "I thought you might like it. I just have to get my necklace and then I will be ready."
Billy winked at Zack as he pulled a small box out of his pocket. "Why don't you wear this?"
Trini gasped when she saw the design on the box. She opened it and saw the very necklace she had admired on Aquitar. "I don't believe it!"
"I asked them to take you there first. We followed." He placed the necklace on her and kissed her forehead. "She and her son designed those pieces in honor of me."
Zack smiled as Trini hugged Billy. "Well, now there is no way Tommy can top that!"
Sarah smacked his arm and smiled. "Be nice!" She looked at her watch. "We should get going or we'll be late."
Trini smiled as they left the room. "I have a feeling that this evening will be wonderful."
4 HOURS LATER
Sarah sighed as she took off her shoes and sat down. "That was awesome."
"Yeah. I didn't know there would be an award for the all around delegate." She set her medallion and statue down. "I can't wait to show my parents."
Sarah smiled as she set her own medallion down. "I'm still getting over the fact that our team accomplished the most. And the fact that they wanted Jason to have one for it was nice."
"Hey, that reminds me. What did the director have to talk to you about?" Trini finished changing into her pj's as her roommate did the same."
"I am taking my last final tomorrow morning and going home with you guys." She smiled as she hopped into bed. "But he also said something else. I'll tell you on the way home."
Trini turned off her light and smiled. "Fine. Goodnight Sarah."
"Nite Trini." Sarah turned off her light and smiled.
AN: Well, now that you read it, go review it. PLEASE!!!!! Hope you all liked it!
AN: Thanks to all of you who reviewed. I had originally started this second part one way but it changed as I wrote. Go figure huh? Well, I hope you like how it's progressing so far. From certain reviews, I can tell that somebody loves it. And to Lovewildfire, you were pretty close on your guess but not quite. But I still think you will like the visitor. Now, on to the visitor!
The Visitors
The newcomer walked in the room and smiled. "Hello Trini. Nice to see you and your friends again."
"What are you doing here" Sarah smiled as he joined her next to the bed.
He smiled and wrapped an arm around her. "I came to visit you for the weekend and they told me that you were here with Trini."
Sarah smiled and turned towards Billy. "Billy, this is my fiancé Eric. Eric, this is Billy, Kim, and Tommy. We haven't found out the others names yet."
Eric smiled at Billy. "It's nice to finally meet you Billy. Sarah keeps telling me how Trini always talks about you." He winked at Trini and grinned. "Sounds like you've got your hands full with her."
"Hey! I'm right here you know!" Trini laughed and turned towards the couple in the corner. "Billy, this is Billy and his mom. They came to see how I was doing."
The boy looked over at Billy and grinned from his wheelchair. "You're the genius from Angel Grove? Cool!"
Billy smiled. "Yes I am. And your dad told me about you. I heard you are a big fan of the power rangers."
"Yeah! I like the blue ranger. Daddy says he's always showing up with the answer. I think he's a genius like me." The boy looked over at the group of teens. "Do any of you know the rangers?"
"Billy, what did I tell you about the rangers?" John walked into the room and shook Trini's hand. "Thanks for doing what you did."
"You told me that they probably don't want anyone to know their identity." He looked over at the teens and frowned. "I'm sorry."
"How would you like to meet some of them?" Jason smiled as the boy's eyes widened. "I mean we are always seeing them around so I am sure I could get one of them to pose for a picture or something." He glanced over to see Tommy nodding and closing the door and blinds.
"Really? That would be so cool!" The boy watched as the rangers lined up. "How?"
Billy smiled at his friends and nodded. Immediately they morphed into their ranger uniforms. "Like that Billy." He took his helmet off and knelt down next to the boy. "I want you to have this." He handed the boy a gold coin.
He smiled as they demorphed and looked at the coin. "What is this?"
"I made it when I was on another planet with those alien rangers. I had to stay there while I was being treated for something. It is a replica of my power coin." Billy smiled as the boy fingered the edge of the coin.
"Wow!" He looked over at Trini. "You are a ranger too aren't you?" When she nodded, he looked up at his dad. "I knew she was a good one to go with."
Trini smiled as Sarah and the mom laughed. She frowned as she remembered something. "Billy, why didn't you hesitate when I came up to you? You seemed to know something."
The rangers looked at Trini in wonder as she watched the boy. "What do you mean Trini?" Billy walked up to her and took her hand. "Did you feel anything?"
"I felt something when I took his hand." She looked at the boy. "You felt something too didn't you?"
The boy nodded and looked at his mom. When she nodded, he looked over at them. "I felt like I was connected to you in some way. I had an image of a tiger and wolf in my dreams last night and it popped into my head again when you took my hand."
Billy stiffened at the word wolf and grinned at Trini. "It wasn't a dream Billy. It was a vision." He smiled at the confused boy. "I am the wolf and Trini is the tiger. We are getting married this summer." He knelt down in front of the boy. Why did you trust her when she took your hand?"
"I heard some voice in my head telling me to stick with my own kind and that she would help me." He looked over at Trini. "What does that mean?"
Billy laughed. "It means that you have a spirit animal of either a wolf or a tiger." He looked at Tommy. "Tommy's grandfather is a Native American. He taught me long ago that every person has a spirit animal. Your mind is smart enough to know how to use nature and connect with it. Now, do you have any other dreams or visions that have any of these animals in them?"
"Well, I've been having a few all this past week that have a tiger in them. I don't know why it's running though. Its almost as if it is playing with some friends. The wolf pops up once in a while."

"I write them down as soon as I wake up so I don't forget them." He looked at Trini. "Is that why I felt at ease with you?"
She nodded. "Your spirit called out to mine and that is why I could feel it too."
John shook his head. "This is all too much for me." He laughed. "We not only meet the rangers but we also find out the reason for Billy's dreams!"
Jason laughed. "Well, you wished you knew what was going on with his dreams!" He turned to the mother. "Kimberly, make sure he keeps writing them down. When he gets into high school, his friends will really start to show their animals."
She looked at him with a frown. "Why do you say that?"
Billy laughed. "Well, for some reason, we all started using animals in our screen names or other stuff. I know I for one started collecting wolf stuff. I know Trini has a bunch of tiger stuff."

Billy looked over at Tommy and Kim and all three of them started laughing. He sat down on the bed before he fell over laughing. "Tri..." he shook his head and pointed at Sarah.
Sarah looked at Trini in confusion. "What's he trying to say?" This brought about another round of laughter from Tommy and Kim as well as Zack and Jason. "What'd I say?"
Trini held her sides as she laughed. "I always had to translate for Billy when he used the scientific words." She glanced over to see him nod. "But when Eric mentioned the frogs, they were laughing because our friend Adam is the frog. And he didn't like it too much at first."

John laughed as he noticed his son yawning. "Well, it's been nice to meet all of you but we better get Billy back to his room before he falls asleep."
Kim nodded and shook the mother's hand. "You make sure he writes down anything he dreams of."
"I will. Thank you Kimberly." She grinned at having to say her own name. "That feels weird saying my own name."
"I know. But you can call me Kim." The lady nodded and waved as she followed her husband and son out the door. "Ok, now what do we do?"
Tommy sighed. "Well, we should get back to the command Center and let Zordon know what's going on." He turned to Trini. "We'll see you when you guys get back."
"Ok. See you later guys!" She watched as they teleported out. "Now, where is Eric gonna stay while he's here?" She turned to her roommate.
"He can stay with us." Zack smiled. "I still have that rollout bed that we used for you when we were cramming those long nights."
Eric nodded. "That's fine by me." He took the key from Zack. "I'll get my things and meet you back in your room." He waited until Sarah got her things and they left the trio alone.
Zack watched as Billy lay down next to Trini and reached for a blanket. "Well, I guess I should head out too." He took the blanket and helped Billy open it to cover himself. "I'll see you guys tomorrow morning."
Billy nodded and watched him leave. "Now, do you think you can get some good sleep?"
She smiled and leaned on his shoulder. "I can try. My side is killing me but I am comfortable now." She yawned and closed her eyes. "See you in the morning Billy."
"Good night Tiger." He smiled as she drifted off to sleep. He soon followed her.
THE NEXT MORNING
"Hey sleepyheads! Time to wake up and go home!" Zack laughed as Billy opened his eyes and groaned.
"Do you HAVE to be so cheery today?" Trini smiled as Billy got up and stretched. "We still have to tell our parents we are coming home."
"Already taken care of." He motioned to his device on the stand next to the bed. "I went back to the room and got it last night. Sarah said she would be packing your clothes. Or at least getting started."
Zack looked at him. "Who all knows we are coming home early?"
"Well, Zordon, Alpha, and our parents. But your parents will be picking you up at the airport." He turned to his device and checked for any email. "Zack, your parents told my dad and he will help the Kwans to get us into our homes unnoticed. They also said they will keep my dad and us informed as to what is going on with the others. They will talk to the other parents to keep the others busy." He glanced up to see them watching him. "What?"
Zack laughed. "Man, you know me and my parents too well! They played right into your hands didn't they?" He shook his head as Billy nodded. "Where will we stay until we actually go back to school?"
"His cabin!" Trini smiled as Billy nodded. "Ernie will be there with Bulk and Skull so we can get caught up there!"
They were distracted by a knock at the door. The nurse walked in with a smile. "Good morning. I'm here to check you out to make sure you are able to be released."
"Great. Billy, why don't you and Zack go down and get some breakfast. And bring me back something good." She smiled as Billy kissed her cheek and followed Zack out.
30 MINUTES LATER
Trini smiled as the door opened. She took the plate from Billy and gasped as Zack motioned an old man into the room, followed by Sarah and Eric. "What are you doing here?"
The old man smiled and sat down in the chair Billy moved over to the bed. "It's nice to see you again Trini."
Billy smiled and joined Trini on the bed. "We saw him at the cafeteria. He is visiting a friend." He saw the man nod. "We got to talking."
"About what?" She watched them exchange grins.
The man reached for their hands. "I sent you to my friend because I knew something would bring you two together. I could feel it when you were competing. My house was consumed in a fire and I now live closer to my cousins outside of Angel Grove."
Billy squeezed her hand as she looked at the man in confusion. "Master Chan has a proposition."
"He does?" She saw him nod. "What is it Master Chan?"
The old man smiled. "I need a couple of people to help me advertise my academy. I will be opening up my friend's academy in a few weeks. Would you be willing to join William in a few exhibitions?"
"But I haven't picked up my gear since I moved." She watched as Billy got up and walked to the window. "What's wrong?"
Billy watched as a small bird flew into the tree outside and right to a nest of 3 other birds. They seemed to be watching him. That's when he heard his mother's voice in his head. "We both stopped for different reasons." He turned back to her with his mind made up. "If we don't do this now, then we will never get around to it. Mom would want me to. Master Lu would want me to as well."
Trini saw a bird land on the windowsill behind Billy. It appeared to be watching her. Can that be her? She smiled as it nodded its head. "I'll do it."
Billy turned to see what she was looking at and saw the other 3 birds join it outside the window. He smiled and walked over to her. "We can refresh ourselves during our weeks off. Master Chan is flying back tomorrow."
Trini smiled as a thought popped into her mind. "You won't have to change your training techniques either will you?" She grinned as he shook his head and turned to her mentor. "You sent me to his Master for that reason didn't you?"
"We were alumnus of the same academy. We were also business partners before his wife got transferred." He smiled and took her hand in his. "Trini, things happen for a reason. My best friend had to leave so that he could help bring the two of you together. I must go now. I will see the two of you upon your return." He nodded to Zack as he walked to the door. "Farewell."
Trini smiled as she climbed off the bed and got her stuff around. "Do you think we are ready for this Billy? I haven't really thought about training again."
"Don't worry Trini. I saw the way you two were in that video. You know that deep down the both of you can still do it." Zack winked at Billy. "Besides, you'd be letting the guy down."
"Excuse me Miss Kwan. We need you to sign these papers before we can release you." The nurse walked through the door and waited patiently while she signed them. "Thank you. You kids have a nice day!"
"You too." Trini smiled as the nurse left. But the door was pushed back open and a small face popped around the edge. "Hey Billy! Come on in!" She gave him a hug and looked out the door. "Where are your parents? I have something to ask the three of you."
"They are signing some papers and will be here in a minute." He watched as she finished gathering her things. "Are you leaving now too?"
Billy smiled as she nodded. "Cool! We can all leave together!"
Zack laughed as the boy's parents walked in. "I guess we are ready to go!"
Billy smiled at John. "Good morning. I see Billy couldn't leave without saying hi."
"Yeah, he is always like that. Whenever he isn't at school or practicing he is in here sitting with the patients and cheering them up. He's like a little morale booster." John laughed as Billy's eyes widened at something Trini whispered to him. "Uh oh."
The young boy grinned. "Really? That would be so cool!"
Trini held out her hand and waited for him to take it. "Let's get out of here." She held out her other hand to her fiancé. "Ready?"
"You bet!" He laughed as his friend opened the door and they headed towards the elevator. The head nurse stopped them.
"Miss Kwan, the nurses and staff would like to give this to you." She handed a large envelope to Trini and a small medallion to her as well. "It's for all that you did for little Billy here. He's like an angel when he comes in here with his parents."
Trini smiled as she opened the envelope and pulled out a letter. "Holy cow!" She read the letter before handing it to Billy. "Oh, that is so sweet!" She showed them the contents of the envelope. "There is at least $500 in here!" She turned to the nurse. "You don't need to do this."
"The whole hospital knows him and if it hadn't been for you, then we all would have felt a loss. Because of you, the rest of the patients will be able to have their little visitor back to cheer them up. You deserve it." The nurse motioned to the small medallion. "That is from the President of the Board. He knows Billy well and has even been one of the patients that he visited. He says that anyone who risked their life to save that one boy, deserves an award."
Trini blushed as the nurses around them all applauded. "Thank you." She shook the head nurse's hand and followed her friends into the elevator. "I don't believe this. What will I do with this money?"
The boy looked at her in thought. "You could use it for your wedding!"
"No, I think I have a better idea. I can use it for a hotel for you and your parents." She looked at his parents. "I already told Billy. I wanted you to come to our wedding. It is this summer."
"We'd be honored to!" Kimberly smiled. "And we both have a few weeks of vacation to take so I think we will!"
Sarah snapped her fingers. "Hey! We have a guesthouse out near our house. And my neighbor's kids are about the same age as Billy." She turned to Trini. "Save your money for your wedding and honeymoon."
"She's got a point Trini." Billy smiled as they headed out of the building and into the sun. He grabbed a piece of blank paper from Trini's notebook and wrote a few things down. "Here Billy. This has our addresses on it. You can write us at either one. I want you to keep us informed on you and your parents."
Billy took the paper and nodded. "I will."
John shook Trini's hand and smiled. "We have to go the other way so you kids take it easy."
"Hey, you do the same." Trini smiled as they waved and headed off. She suddenly looked at her watch. "Oh my gosh! We have to get ready for the banquet tonight!"
Sarah froze. "I forgot about that!" She began to mentally go through her list of things to do and ran into a bush. "Ooops!"
Zack laughed. "Hey, we still have all day to get ready guys!" He watched as Sarah blushed. "Let's just get back to the dorm and get ready."
Trini smiled and helped her friend up from the ground. "I think I know what you can wear." She pulled her along towards the dorm.
5 HOURS LATER
Trini smiled at her reflection. "I can't wait to see their faces."
Sarah smiled behind her as someone knocked on the door. "Let's find out! She let the boys in and laughed as Billy stared. "I think he's speechless!"
Billy grinned as she slowly turned around for him. Her pale yellow dress had tiny blue and white flowers on it and the sheer fabric on the skirt billowed out when she turned. "You look beautiful."
She smiled as she touched her bare neck. "I thought you might like it. I just have to get my necklace and then I will be ready."
Billy winked at Zack as he pulled a small box out of his pocket. "Why don't you wear this?"
Trini gasped when she saw the design on the box. She opened it and saw the very necklace she had admired on Aquitar. "I don't believe it!"
"I asked them to take you there first. We followed." He placed the necklace on her and kissed her forehead. "She and her son designed those pieces in honor of me."
Zack smiled as Trini hugged Billy. "Well, now there is no way Tommy can top that!"
Sarah smacked his arm and smiled. "Be nice!" She looked at her watch. "We should get going or we'll be late."
Trini smiled as they left the room. "I have a feeling that this evening will be wonderful."
4 HOURS LATER
Sarah sighed as she took off her shoes and sat down. "That was awesome."
"Yeah. I didn't know there would be an award for the all around delegate." She set her medallion and statue down. "I can't wait to show my parents."
Sarah smiled as she set her own medallion down. "I'm still getting over the fact that our team accomplished the most. And the fact that they wanted Jason to have one for it was nice."
"Hey, that reminds me. What did the director have to talk to you about?" Trini finished changing into her pj's as her roommate did the same."
"I am taking my last final tomorrow morning and going home with you guys." She smiled as she hopped into bed. "But he also said something else. I'll tell you on the way home."
Trini turned off her light and smiled. "Fine. Goodnight Sarah."
"Nite Trini." Sarah turned off her light and smiled.
