A Christmas Letter:
Sky and Z
Sky, I know your probably off with your family for the holidays, and I am stuck here at the academy alone. Jack didn't feel like staying, so he decided to dress up as Santa for the Children's Hospital. Syd took a trip with her family, and Bridge, well you know Bridge. He's also with his family, but he called earlier saying his was making toast for his grandma. And Sam is on a mission. Sky…I don't have any money for presents, but if I were to tell you something, would you like it?
Z…for some reason I can't stop thinking about you. We all probably left you alone at the academy, and I'm sorry for leaving you. But I got you something for Christmas, it may be small, but I am pretty sure that you'll like it. No wait, LOVE IT! Oh Z, I love you, and I have a little surprise for you…just in time for the holidays…

Dear Elizabeth Marie Delgado,
MERRY CHRISTMAS Z! You got to LOVE the holidays…well who doesn't? So Z, how's it at the academy? Kat and Cruger have anything going on or did Boom put more lights around the base…again? Boom, he's so funny, but weird. But he's a great friend. Kind of getting off topic here, and I know that your probably have one of your prettiest smiles on. How I wish I could see you smile. You make me drool when I see your smile pop up. It's funny, but in a good way.
Oh Sky, you sure know how to charm a girl. You know you have a great personality in the inside, but how come you don't show it? I taught you how to loosen up, but you are still too scared to show it. Maybe when everyone gets back from the holidays, you'll show everyone how you really are for a Christmas present. That would be nice.
Z, I'm truly sorry for leaving you at the academy, and I really mean it. I know how it feels to be alone; not saying that your alone. You got cadets and people running around the academy. So your not actually being alone, but technically your alone of your kind. Your kind meaning no other B-Squad rangers. Whoa…what am I saying…I am starting to talk like Bridge? The holidays can really get to you. Now, I am really getting off topic.
That's what you get for sleeping with Bridge every night. I just hope that I won't start becoming like Syd. Now that's freaky.
By the way, I have a little story for you, it just seems right for the holidays. I just changed some parts, but I hope you love it…
'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the halls
not a troobian was stirring, not even phone calls.
The lights were hung by Boom with care,
in hopes that Jack won't mess up the lair.
Syd and Bridge were nestled all warm in their beds,
while visions of buttered bread danced in Bridges' head.
And Kat in her lab, and I in my seat,
had just settled on plane for a long winter's beat.
When my head arose with such a clatter,
I sat up from my bed to see what was the matter.
Away to the desk, I flew like a Zord,
tore open the drawer, and fell over the light cord.
The thought of you like the new-fallen snow
gave me a sign of love to all those below,
when, what to my wondering eyes should appear,
but a picture of you and me was just sitting there.
With Sam as a ball of light, so lively and quick,
I knew in a moment Syd was having a fit.
More rapid than RIC, Cruger started to run,
and he whistled and shouted and actually had fun.
As we first met, our love was fried, but
when Z and Sky met, they tried and tried
so as we got to know each other,
others did not try to bother.
And then, in a twinkling, I thought in my head
the loving and caring of us in our bed.
As I drew in my head and was turning around,
I saw you as you came with a bound.
She was in the most ravishing dress,
and didn't care if her hair was a mess.
A bundle of joy that you gave to me,
as you and me kissed under the Christmas tree.
The Christmas spirit was through the air,
and I smiled when I saw you, everything was fair.
Despite our differences, I had nothing to fear,
as me and you had HOLIDAY CHEER.
I was speechless, when we first kissed,
Thank God I had nothing to miss.
And laying my hand aside of your chin,
and startled to see Bridge with his toast tin.
I sprang to the ceiling, as you gave me a hug,
And I said to you on your face was a bug.
But I lied and laid a kiss, and I know
something was true,
"Oh Elizabeth Delgado, I LOVE YOU!"
Z, now don't freak out. I can tell there is a lot going on your mind, but I just wanted to let me feelings out. Like my reenactment of Twas' The Night Before Christmas? I tried to make it special just for you. Because I LOVE YOU.
All I can say is, WOW. I never knew how he felt about me, and we share the same feelings for each other. I LOVE YOU Too SKY…
I wish I could make sure you always had the best; like laughter, rainbows, butterflies, and health. I wish I could take you anywhere you wanted to go and treat you to waterfalls, river, forests, and snow. I wish I could make it possible for you to do anything you ever dreamed of even if just for a day. I wish I could keep you from ever being hurt or sad. I wish that all your troubles and problems would disappear.
I wish that I could package up all the memories that bring smiles to you and have them handy for your immediate enjoyment. I wish I could guarantee you peace of mind, contentment, fait, and strength, as well as constant ability to fin joy in all things that sometimes go unnoticed. I wish you moments to connect wit other individuals who are full of smiles and hugs to give away and stories and laughter to share. I wish you could always know how much you are loved and appreciated. AND I WISH YOU THE BEST ON THIS HOLIDAY SEASON.
Z this is what I wish all for you because you are something special. Something very special that I would like to keep with me forever. And, by the way I have something else for you.
Sky, you have made me a very happy girl. There's more? You have given me enough to be happy about…
THIS TOOK YOU LONG ENOUGH TO READ DIDN'T IT? You might not know what I am talking about, but turn around and look out your window. Just go, you'll love it.
Love,
Schuyler Wesley Tate
MERRY CHRISTMAS :)

What are you talking about? Hey what's that?
"Z come on out!" shouted a familiar voice.
"Sky?" said Z as she walked to her bedroom window. "SKY!"
"COME ON! I HAVE A SURPRISE FOR YOU!" shouted Sky.
Z came running out of the doors of the academy. She didn't know what was coming for her, but Sky had an important question to ask. Sky the tough guy as he was, was showing a side of him no one had ever seen. He was dripping with sweat while shaking from side to side.
"Took you long enough," said Sky.
"Is that I see, Sky Tate acting nervous?" asked Z.
"You look beautiful."
"Thank you. Well, ummm…this is kind of awkward."
"Yes, I know, but I have to ask you something."
"Since, it's Christmas and all, I have a present for you. By the way did you love the letter? I know it wasn't the best, but I tried. And…"
"Sky, shhhh. I loved the letter, and you didn't have to give me anything."
"I know, but this is something you'll love." Sky got down on of his knees. "Elizabeth, Z, I know we practically hated each other when we first met, but as time went on, I saw different in you, and you know you saw other things in me. Were different, but perfect for each other. I know I haven't known you for long, but I would like to spend the rest of my life with you. Elizabeth Marie Delgado, will you marry me? And there is something I would want in return."
"Sky, you know I don't have the money to give you anything."
"No, items are not what I want, I would be perfectly happy with a YES."
"Oh Schuyler Wesley Tate, YES, I would loved to be married to you."
Sky got up and kissed his new fiancé, and another miracle had just happened.
"Look Sky, it's snowing!"
"Wow, it barely snows here. But hey, anything can happen."
"Yes, Mr. Tate, anything can happen," she said as she laid another kiss on her soon to be husband.
