The other four were simply cadets who'd gone to see what all the noise was about. Squee was able to lift out Kat from the rubble. Other than being unconsious and blood gushing out of her mouth, Kat seemed perfectly fine. Rain joined her friend and began to check the five bodies and sighed.
"Only one of them is in sever condition. Kat simply cut the inside of her mouth. There's a few cuts and scrapes on her, but it looks like curiousity saved the cat this time." Rain smiled. "We just need to get this one-" she indicated the only female of the group of cadets "-to the medical bay."
Squee nodded and went to pick up the girl and carry her away when Sky stopped her. "What?" she said, her eyes sharp and cut through Sky's exterior. "Something I can help you with, cadet?"
Sky's hand tightened it's grip on her wrist. "I want a word with you."
"Now?" Squee looked down at Rain and back up to Sky.
"Yes, now." Sky dragged her off, down a hall and out of sight of the danger area. He turned around, turned her around to face him and stared her in the eye. "That amulet around your neck, where'd you get it?"
"It was my birth father's, why?" Squee looked so confused.
"I keep thinking it's calling me." Sky released her and took a good look at her, his eyes staring deep into her's, as if trying to find something he couldn't see. Finally, he looked down at the amulet. "It's the Samurai Amulet, used against Lothor. I read about it. They said it was lost to the tides of time. But if you have it, your living proof that the amulet still co-excists with our technology. That means Kat could unleash so many different kinds of inventions that we can use to destroy Grumm..."
Squee looked off to the side, muttering; "NOW he understands. Sheesh." She turned to him. "You do know a lot about the Samurai Amulet, why is that? Did someone tell you to? Or were you working off pure instinct?"
"Pure instinct." Sky blinked. "I had a dream about a girl just like you, and she asked me to take this amulet. I kept dreaming out it, ever since I became a Ranger, but when I met you, they just stopped, just like that." Sky stared at her with such an inoccently curious expression. "What's that mean?"
Squee gave a warming smile. "That's because the Samurai Amulet wishes for it's new master." She took it off from around her neck. "It will only work once for you. It will give you the boost you need when you call upon it. Oh, Sky..." She stood on her tip-toes and kissed his cheek. "Thanks for reminding me." She ran back around the corner, her footsteps and voice echoing back to a very stunned Sky.

Bridge sat beside Kat, since his old friends were still training. He couldn't help but wonder... Why was he given the power of psychic sense? Why did he have these strange revelations so suddenly? Why did he have to be so... so weird? Why wasn't he given something that gave him a normal life?
Kat's voice broke him.
"Bridge?" She was laying in her bed and her hand was raised.
Instinctively, Bridge took hold of it, his own mind in a whirl. Kat was awake! "I'm here." Bridge gently gave her hand a squeeze. "Don't worry, your gonna be fine."
"Bridge, he's coming."
"Who is it?" He didn't understand.
"Stop him!" Her grip tightened, "He mustn't come near you!" It was constricting his fingers."He'll hurt you!"
And with that, Kat's eyes slid shut, returning her to the sleeping state she was in prior. Her eyes fluttered like butterfly wings and her tightening grip slacked so much her finger fell limp to the bed, laying still on the white linen sheets. Bridge just sat there, his eyes wide, his mouth agape. He had to find out what Kat meant!
Just as Bridge stood up, the sirens went off. Crugger was calling him and the other two A-Squad Rangers to active duty. He gently stroked Kat's hair and took off, morphing right as the door opened. He darted past Sky and Jack and was soon joined by Squee and Rain, who were also morphed. Bridge stopped and turned around as Crugger entered the Comand Center. Squee and Rain stood on either side of him, at attention.
"Grumm has decided to attack an orphanage in Japan. I need you to go and stop him from hurting anymore people. There's a hyper drive located on Squee's SWAT truck. Dismissed, Rangers! Hurry!"
Bridge stopped right outside the door. "Sir, if we need, please send Jack and Sky as back up."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes, sir."
"Very well."
Bridge smirked to himself. 'You'll get your chance to shine, Sky. That amulet's almost healed. Squee's going to give it to you soon enough.' He ran right past the duo who had come to the Command Center. He waved to them before running off to join the girls. 'Squee know it's time to pass it on to a stronger generation than her bloodline, so be ready for it Sky.'
