Chapter 6 - I won't let you

The Green Ranger was about to stab Broodwing in the chest, then suddenly the sword flew out of his hand. The Green Ranger was shocked and Broodwing took this time to roll away from him. Broodwing got up and the Green Ranger snapped out of his daze in time to see him running away.

"Hey where do you think your going?" the Green ranger shouted as he gave chase. But it was too late; Broodwing jumped into the air and flew away. The Green Ranger could only watch as his enemy escaped.

"Damn it!" the Green Ranger swore as loud as he could. He then turned around to see who had shot the sword out of his hand. It wasn't a big surprise to see the Blue Ranger holding his Delta Max Strike at his side.

"Power down," Green said. The Ranger disappeared and Bridge was standing there. The Blue Ranger also powered down to reveal Sky with a serious look on his face.

Bridge stormed towards him. "What the hell do you think you're doing?" Bridge yelled at Sky. Sky remained quiet. Bridge was now a few feet away from him. "Answer me, damn it. Why did you do that?" he said angrily, grabbing the front of Sky's shirt.

Sky kept his eyes on Bridge as he answered in a level voice, "I couldn't stand by and watch you make a big mistake." Bridge let go of Sky and began to walk away. Sky was shocked at his behavior. "Where are you going?" he asked.

Bridge turned around and said, "Don't know, just… away." Then he resumed his walking.

Sky wasn't going to let him get away that easily and took off after his green friend. "Are you going after Broodwing?" he asked, already knowing the answer. Bridge ignored him and kept walking. Sky sped up to keep up with him. "No you can't, Bridge. I won't let you," he said firmly, running now to catch up with Bridge, then he grabbed his shoulder and spun him around to face him.

Bridge glared at him. "You're not going to stop me Sky; this is something I have to do," he said as he made an attempt to turn on the spot and resume his walking.

But Sky stopped him by saying, "Why do you have to do this Bridge? You're not a killer."

Bridge was caught off guard by this question and he looked at Sky as he thought about how to reply. The only reason he wanted to kill Broodwing was because of the emotional scar he put there. But is that a good reason to kill anyone?

"Shut up Sky; you know why I had to do this," Bridge said in a cold voice.

Sky was hurt by this comment but he bottled up his feelings for now. "Bridge this is not you." Sky took a deep breath and continued, "Bridge you're a nice, caring, fun, friendly person who doesn't believe killing as form of justice.''

Bridge felt his eyes burn at Sky's words. He turned his back on him so he wouldn't see his face. "No Sky, you're wrong; I'm weak person. I let people walk all over me and use me for their own pleasure." Bridge felt the tears slid down his check.

Sky's heart went out to his broken and lost friend. He placed a hand on Bridge's shoulder and said, "No you're not weak. You're one of the strongest people I know."

Bridge gave a cold laugh and said, "Yeah right. If I'm so strong then why wasn't I able to stop Broodwing from using me?"

Sky turned Bridge around to look at him. Bridge's eyes were closed and tears slipped from under his eyelids. "Bridge you can't keep blaming yourself for what happened; it was out of both our control."

Bridge opened his eyes and shouted, "Yes I can Sky. I'm useless and weak." At this point he lost control and fell to his knees, covering his eyes and beginning to sob.

Sky was stunned by this unexpected reaction, but snapped out of it and got to his knees to pull Bridge into a hug. "Bridge do you want to talk about it?" Sky asked. Bridge shook his head. "Alright. Do you want to go home and take a nap?" he persisted. Bridge gave a nod of his head. "Alright lets go," he said, helping Bridge to his feet.

Sky supported Bridge as they walked back to the base. The words I'm useless and weak echoed in his head….
