Sky was alone, he liked it that way. He breathed in the cool evening air and looked out from the roof of the SPD academy a place that he had come many years ago to do one thing, become the Red Ranger. His had almost inadvertently moved to the red stripe on his uniform.
"I did it Dad," Sky sighed. "I'm the Red SPD Ranger, just like you. I only hope I can be as good as you were. Commander Krueger said you were the best of the best. I don't know if anyone could ever fill your shoes, but Dad I'm going to try."
"I thought I'd find you up here."
Sky spun around, "Bridge what are you doing up here?"
"You always came here when you were troubled, even when we were in the inductee class."
"And if I remember correctly you always seemed to find me up here."
"Well isn't that what friends are for?"
"Yes."
Bridge went to lean against the wall where Sky was standing. "So what's going on in that head of yours?"
"A lot, you know I had that meeting with Commander Krueger today."
"Yes, it seemed really long what happened?"
"Well we're standing there in his office and in walks Eric Meyers and Wes Collins."
"No way, like Silver Guardians Quantum Ranger Eric Meyers."
Sky threw him a disparaging look.
"Sorry go on."
"I can't blame you I was pretty excited myself. But the reason they were here was very different that what you might be thinking."
"So no galactic battle of mega importance save the earth kind of thing."
"Not even close."
"So what was it?"
"They came all the way to New Tech City to tell me that Wes Collins was my father and that my whole life was a lie."
"What?" Bridge said shocked.
"My father Paul Tate wasn't my real father and Angela Tate isn't my mother."
"Then who are they?"
"My father's nanny and gardener."
"I don't get it."
"I don't really want to get into it."
"Ok…so what are you going to do?"
"I already did it."
"Sky what did you do?"
"I looked at them told Wes I didn't believe a word he was saying and that I didn't want to see either of them again."
"Whoa, what did Krueger say?"
"He left the office before they dropped the bomb on me otherwise I probably would be in bigger trouble than I am already."
"Is there anything I can do to help maybe some computer work?"
Sky didn't answer.
"Sky? You said Angela Tate wasn't your mother. Then who is?"
"A Ranger from the year 3000."
"Where is she?"
"Dead, or so my father believes. She had a difficult labor."
