Rated: M for language.
Disclamer: The only money was that made was the money the electric company gets from my Dad for how long I was on the computer typing this story. Yes, I still live with my parents. Hey, I'm only 13!
Wham! Kelsey slammed straight into a wall while she was walking to the Aquabase's cafeteria for a little snack. Gotta watch where I walk. She said to herself. She just kept on walking. Dana came up to her. She had just seen what happened.
"Hey Kels! You O.K.?"
"Yeah, why? It's just a little bump into the wall."
"Well, it's just, you've been really weird and… well, different."
"So, your point?" Kelsey snapped. Dana was silent. Kelsey went over to the refrigerator and grabbed an apple. "Anyway, I'm my room if you need me. Later. Oh, and good luck on your next date with Carter." Kelsey said with a smile and left. Dana kept silent as she sunk into a chair, thinking. Soon, her boyfriend came in and snapped her out of her thoughts with a sweet kiss. Dana smiled a little. Carter grabbed milk carton from the refrigerator and started to gulp it down. Dana's smile grew as she turned around.
"CARTER!" she yelled through her laughter.
"Fine, I'll get a glass." He said with a chuckle. "Anyway, what's up?"
"It's Kelsey, she's been acting so weird since that encounter with Vypra." Dana remembered it as if it happened just three minutes ago.
Flashback: Vypra had an unmorphed and weak Kelsey trapped with her sword turned into a spear at her. She was to slice her when Ryan's titanium laser hit her arm, distracting her. Ryan quickly snuck past her and grabbed Kelsey. Vypra figured it was a trick. But she was too late. She grabbed her spear and turned it into a staff and started to hit many sites. Kelsey and an unmorphed Ryan watched from a safe hiding place for cover. "Shouldn't we stop her?"
"No. Your too weak, morphing will only make you weaker, maybe destroy you. Captain told me to bring you back to the Aquabase. No question." Ryan said, turning to Kelsey. "O.K." she said.
Her head was hanging, not wanting to make eye contact, not with a guy. She turned and ran as Ryan followed. End Flashback.
"Now that I think about it, Ryan hasn't left his room except for Lightspeed and ranger issues and food." Carter said with confusion.
Dana couldn't believe this. Two of the most important people in her life were acting up. Now way. Could they be in love with each other? She had acted the same way when she created a crush on Carter.
Meanwhile, Kelsey sat in her room, muching on her apple, thinking. Dana was…correct. She loved Ryan with all her heart. She had been acting weird so she wouldn't say anything to Dan, Ct. Mitchell, or Ryan himself. "Ugh." Kelsey groaned as she plopped on her bed.
Ryan was in his room, thinking as well. He loved Kelsey, thus why he isolated himself so he wouldn't spill his crush. "What the freaking hell am I gonna do?" He asked. He went over to his bed and climbed in. Even though it was only 2:00 p.m., his eyes closed and he found his way to sleepworld.
