Back in Japan, the next day, when all the Dekarangers had recovered from their over twenty-four hours operation. Wells was to be found somewhere in the Dekabase building, staring outside to the horizon. Jasmine had approached him at some point. She called his name once, but he didn't respond. Then she touched his shoulder and tried again: "Bill?"

Wells had suddenly woken from a trance: "Oh! Sorry, I think my thoughts were somewhere else for a time."

She smiled as she said: "I already thought you were still thinking about the baby."

Wells's silence was enough to acknowledge that that was what he was doing.

"I really feel for him." Jasmine sounded sad, "I mean, even to me he was unique."

"Well, I suppose it could've been worse." Wells remarked, "The baby could have been some kind of human looking duck that will grow up to be a purple costumed superhero with a tremendous ego."

Jasmine didn't look as if she understood the joke, so Wells mumbled: "I need to stop making references like that."

"You know, I was really looking forward to raise him together." Jasmine continued.

"I'm not so sure." Wells replied, "How did you feel when you first found out about your ESP abilities?"

Jasmine was surprised he'd bring that up: "... I was scared. Why?"

"And did your parents know you had such powers before you found out yourself?"

"... No?"

"And how would you imagine you'd respond if they did? The same thing would go for that kid. I'm not so sure we would make good parents for him."

"And you think he will have better parents where you dropped him off?"

"I think he would at least survive in a better environment. It's all I can truly promise."

Jasmine smiled a little, then said: "You know, Shun really wished you wouldn't have taken the meteor rocks with you too."

"Maybe. But if that ant somehow found out about those rocks being here, I'm sure others found out too. So if those others would want to get their hands on them, they would have to come here!"

"But they won't find anything!" Jasmine understood, "Clever thinking!"

"I guess you of all people would know that best!"

She smiled as he said that.
