Three months later
Isabella has now been living with them for six months. Emma is at home but Troy isn't currently. There's a knock at the door.
Emma goes to open the door. On the other-side is Merrick and Shayla, Isabella's parents. Emma and Troy have been wondering when this day would come.
"Mum, Dad" Emma says
"Emma, technically" Merrick speaks up. This is the first time she's called this version this, after everything it feels good.
"I know" Emma interrupts him before continuing
"Come in, Isabella's at school, she started three months ago. She's fitting in well, better than I did. Then again she has me and knew you would be back, it was just a matter of when"
"How?" Shayla asked confused, they weren't even sure they would be back
"We had a couple of visitors three months ago, my parents from my world. Be happy with happened here, they came here looking looking for a nine-year-old. They didn't know I had arrived in the past" Emma explains
"I'm sorry, what happened?" Shayla asks
"They were from over a year after I left, they said they couldn't come earlier because my mum was pregnant with my sister Krystal. They came here hoping I would come back with them, but I couldn't I have a life here and Isabella needed me but they told what happened there, so I had an idea of what might happen here" Emma answers her
"We're not" says Shayla
"I think it was because a new Princess was needed, you both gained me as a second daughter, it was my biggest worry if I didn't return. Who would be the Princess, Mum couldn't her time had ended" Emma explains
"How's Isabella been?" Shayla asks realizing Emma doesn't want to talk about original home and family its hurts to much
"As I mentioned earlier Isabella has started school here, when we knew there might be a chance that she could be with us for months longer and had discussed it already we enrolled her in the local elementary school. Troy and I loved having her here with us we wished it could have been under different circumstances, we have come to see each other as family. Isabella became my little sister, when anyone asked that's what I told the Isabella was my younger sister. Our parents had left her in my care because they couldn't look after her, they moved around a lot. There are a couple of things you should know, I had to tell my adoptive parents something, so I told them Collins was mother's maiden name, my parents weren't married when I was born. We moved around a lot, we were in a ranger city when I was separated from my parents. I was evacuated during the final battle, my parents weren't found and a little while later they adopted me. I told them you had been looking for ne since I disappeared and I found you five years ago and how I told you if Isabella ever needed somewhere to stay she was always welcome at my house and you took me up on that when fighting started in your home town" Emma explains to them
"It's good to know she's fitting in well, we will talk to Wes, there might be a way to make that story even more believable" Shayla tells her
"I know you need to stay on the Animarium but Isabella is welcome to stay here as long as she needs" Emma tells them
"We can visit more, but it's safer for Isabella to stay here until the battles are over, and it's good for her to have this experience, this world is so different to ours and the Animarium reflects our time" Shayla responds
"We can discuss this with her when she gets home, also my adoptive parents want to meet you, seeing as don't know everything as far as they are aware you're my parents as well as Isabella's" Emma tells them
"We can organize that some point in the future, but you might consider explaining it to them one day" Shayla offers
"Maybe, it was hard enough to explain it to all of you and my team. Originally Gosei was the only one who knew and told me share it and in time I did to Troy. I didn't have plans to tell anyone else but I couldn't let Isabella go through what I did" Emma explains
Emma checks the time realizing its time to go collect Isabella she turns to Merrick and Shayla and asks "I have to go collect Isabella, would you like to come?"
"Yes, Please" Shayla answers
The three of them head out and get into Emma's car.
X-X-X-X-X
In the car Emma decides to bring up the subject of the battle but she has an idea of the answer to what she's about to ask.
"How is everyone back home?"
"I'm sorry to say that…" Shayla says but can't finish
"Danny?" Emma asks sadly
"How did you?" Shayla asks shocked
"It happened back in my original world too, I guessed" Emma answers sadly "I was hoping that maybe it was different but it wasn't"
"I'm sorry you're feeling it twice over" Shayla says softly
"Thank you, How's Kendall holding up especially with little Elizabeth" Emma asks them she never asked her parents about that
"She left and took little Elizabeth with her, Sky's going to miss his little playmate sadly in time he won't remember her. She wanted to get away from attacks I believe and with little Elizabeth I don't blame her" Merrick answers her
"I understand it took me a long time to tell anyone about my past let alone meet all of you, it hurt too much and I couldn't change your lives, if I met you when I arrived you may never have had Isabella, I didn't know what I might change, hopefully one day you see them again" Emma tells them
"I hope so too" Shayla replies
X-X-X-X-X
They pull up outside the school and the three of them get out.
From her spot Isabella sees her parents standing with Emma.
She runs to them yelling "Mum! Dad!" she flies into their waiting arms
When they pull apart Isabella asks "What are you doing here? Can I come home? I miss everyone!"
Noticing everyone is watching them Merrick speaks up "We will talk about back at Emma's"
The four of them get into Emma's car and head back to Emma's.
X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X
Six Months later
In the last six months Merrick and Shayla has visited on multiple occasions when they have been able to leave the Animarium and Turtle Cove.
There is a Knock at the door, Emma gets up to answer it. On the other-side is Merrick, Shayla and Nicolas.
"Mum, Dad, Nicolas, come in" Emma says as she invites them in
The four of them head into the living room, where they sit down.
"What's happened?" Emma decides to ask; this is the first time they have brought Nicolas with them. She hopes it's a good sign.
"Zen-Aku has been defeated" Nicolas tells his sister
"Really? Wow, that's great, well done" Emma tells him
"Unfortunately he left on a note stating one day someone will be fighting Orgs again, it doesn't sound good" Nicolas continues
"Hey, you don't know if he was telling the truth, and if he was then someone is going to have to fight Orgs again, there is always going to be another whether it be Orgs or something else. Mum and Dad fought the Orgs 3000 years ago and again in 2002, then you fought them yourself. So if they come come back someone will fight them but for today celebrate your Victory, you and your team defeated Zen-Aku" Emma tells him
Merrick and Shayla are thankful to Emma; they have told him this. Hopefully this time he will listen to his sister.
"What's going on back at your home?" Emma asks turning to Merrick and Shayla
"Wild Force have stopped fighting, Melissa has gone and joined Lily in Ocean Bluff. Time Force is still fighting unfortunately" Shayla answers
"What's the plan now?" Emma asks wondering what happens next.
"We were hoping Isabella could finish her Elementary schooling in Harwood County, It's still safer here. We were thinking of spending summer holidays here. Alyssa, Cole and Kyle would stay on the Animarium for those months. After that we will see hopefully by then Time Force won't be battling anymore" Merrick informs her
"How has it been here? How is your project going?" Shayla asks Emma
"Noah's been working with a team to create a device that will allow travel to other earths, hopefully we will be able to visit my original Earth/World it's still a little while off, which is ok. We don't want to travel until after Time Force has defeated their Enemy. We also won't leave Isabella while she needs us" Emma answers them
"I'm glad to hear it all" Shayla tells her
The family spends the next few hours in conversation, just talking about everything that's happened since their last visit. Nicolas tells stories from his time as a ranger.

Thanks for reading
Hope you enjoyed reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it.
As you tell the added information was about Sky and Z. Originally I didn't want them to know about Z. Originally Kendall was pregnant when she left and others didn't know. But with pushing the battle forward two years that meant Z was born and Sky had been adopted by the Collins family. In this Universe SPD happened ten years later. In this story they knew each other as babies. Because she had hidden herself so well the others never knew of her death and orphaning of Z if they had they would have adopted her without a thought. Kendall didn't want that life for her daughter. Yet it found her anyway.
The son Wes and Jen adopted mentioned in the previous authors note was Sky Tate.
Danny's story was told in here, He and Kendall married and they worked for SPD. That's why he was always away. They had a daughter Elizabeth Delgado. When Danny died Kendall moved away wanting to get her daughter away fights, she didn't want her to have anything to do with it. Danny's teammates kids were rangers she didn't want that for Elizabeth, she didn't want to lose her like she lost Danny. SPD helped get her a job in her new location. Kendall never told Elizabeth about her father being a ranger. Z would later find this out from Sky when he learns who she is.
There's another chapter coming that will include a crossover with Dino Charge.
