A/N: In this story there will be a paring between Sky and an oc named Kathleen, Kathleen is Kat's daughter, although… thanks to genetic mutation, if you don't look directly at her face you would think she was a human (more about her in later fics)
Let Me Know You
Jack walked into the command center along with his team. They hadn't seen Kat all day and Z had went so far as to look for her and didn't find her.
"Commander Cruger, do you know where Kat is?" Sky asked
"Yes, rangers, I do" he replied "but before I tell you, three is something you need to know"
"What is that, sir?" Syd asked
"Her daughter, Kathleen, was officially deemed 'Missing in Action' yesterday evening"
"Sir, you mean to tell us Kat has children," Z said
"Actually, a child, singular, Kathleen is her only living child, had Gruumm never attacked her planet she would have two children today"
"If Kathleen is Kat's daughter then how come none of us know her?" Sky asked
"She is stationed on KO-35 and was the equivalent to our A-squad red ranger, or actually, she would be Jack's equal now" Commander Cruger replied
Meanwhile:
Aisynia Cruger watched over the unconscious form of a juvenile felina girl. She was worried about this young girl because she had been unconscious for multiple Earth days and showed no signs of regaining consciousness, and Aisynia feared that this girl might be steadily slipping away from her.
'Come on little one' Aisynia thought desperately before noticing that the girl was wearing dog tags around her neck with the SPD insignia on one side and vital information on the other.
"Cadet Kathleen Manx
Ethnicity: Felina
SF-Squad A; Red Ranger" it read
"Kathleen Manx" Aisynia mused silently then went back to monitoring her vitals again as Kathleen started to show the first signs of regaining awareness.
The rangers went into the lounge their minds reeling over what they had just found out that it didn't look good for Kathleen Manx, Missing in Action, they knew those words must have been like taking a stab from the Shadow Saber to the heart for Kat, whom they still had yet to see.
"I hope Kat's okay" Sky said, "I mean she doesn't usually just up and vanish like this"
"True" Bridge said, "then again she hasn't had this happen, I mean guys Kathleen is her daughter she's really upset"
"He's right guys, she's really upset" Syd said
"Yeah, and I can't blame her, no one could" Z said
Commander Cruger entered Kat's lab and went through the back door and turned right and went down through the door at the end of the corridor. There he found Kat Manx, curled up in a chair, crying.
"Kat, you know that SPD is doing everything possible to find your daughter," he said as he approached her.
"I know, Doggie, but that doesn't make me worry any less, I lost her once, I couldn't stand to lose her again!" Kat cried, and that moment he realized what she was feeling and wished there was more he could do to comfort her. Kat rearranged herself in the chair before standing up. Commander Cruger watched her helplessly before guiding her into a gentle embrace that she returned.
"Kat listen, you need to have faith in Kathleen, I know she'll find a way to get back"
"I hope you're right" Kat managed faintly before begging to cry again.
Commander Cruger made a noble effort to comfort his friend, but nothing he did seemed to help her much, she needed the comfort that would only come when they found her daughter, hopefully, alive. He said a prayer to whatever deities existed that Kathleen Manx would come through this for her mother's sanity, if for no other reason.
