"You're an egotistical, self-centered, sexist ASSHOLE, SCHUYLER TATE!"

Z, Jack and Bridge's jaws dropped open at Syd's words. "Holy cow!" Bridge gasped.

"I'm just as capable as any male cadet in this academy at handling any situation, let alone night duty! Need I remind you I've been here as long as you, trained just as hard as you, oh, and wait, I've been a Ranger too! JUST LIKE YOU!"

The Red, Yellow and Green Rangers watched Sydney back Sky into the common room, her finger jabbing his chest to punctuate each of her comments as she raged at him.

"I've never seen her this mad before," Jack muttered.

"I just want to know what Sky did to piss her off this bad," Z pointed out, laying the blame for Syd's anger at the Blue Ranger's feet.

"SYDNEY! I didn't mean it like that!" Sky tried to argue back.

"REALLY? I know what you were thinking – Syd's just a girl, therefore she shouldn't be on night patrol because she can't take care of herself!" Syd went off again, flailing her arms about before hissing, "NEWSFLASH SCHUYLER! I've got two fists that do this neat trick of turning into whatever solid element I want to damn well change them into! Not to mention, I have a blaster strapped to my leg that I'm a damn good shot with!"

"Syd!" Sky feebly protested.

"I DO NOT WANT TO HEAR IT SCHUYLER!"

The Blue Ranger winced as his girlfriend used his full first name yet again. "Can I explain?"

"FINE! GO AHEAD! EXPLAIN AWAY!" Syd shouted, crossing her arms over her heaving chest and tapping her foot on the floor angrily.

"I had Kat switch your shift with Cadet Sanders for one reason."

"What's that?"

"I wanted to spend the night of our anniversary with you, alone, in bed."

The trio of remaining B Squad Rangers grinned when Syd's hard expression melted into shock.

"OH GOD! Our anniversary's tomorrow, isn't it?"

Sky grinned and pulled her into his arms. "Did you forget?"

"I'm so sorry, I spaced it. I got you something a month ago, but I spaced what day it was. I am so, so sorry for freaking out on you like that!"

Sky simply smiled and then leaned down to kiss her softly. "Am I forgiven now?"

"As long as I am," she smiled up at him.

Sky nodded and hugged her. When the impish smile crossed his features, the others raised their eyebrows in question. "And Syd, I'm well aware of how capable you are and just what those lethal hands of yours can do," Sky teased suggestively, making Syd blush bright red and hide her face in his chest.

The others burst out laughing at his comment and Syd's reaction.
