I do not own Power rangers SPD. Disney does.

The only thing I do own is my character Emma.


"She will be just fine." Dr. Felix said to Kat, Tommy and Kim. "She just needs to rest."

"That's it?" Tommy asked.

"That's it." Dr. Felix stated. "Now if you will excuse me, I have to get back to work." Dr. Felix left.

"Her powers drain her energy." Kat explained. "The more she practices her magic, the less it will drain energy."

"The less that this will happen." Tommy concluded.

"Exactly." Kat said. "That is why we are working on training her."

"We should let her rest." Kim said. "Come on." Tommy, Kim and Kat left.


I woke up, looked around and slowly left Dr. Felix's office. I knew that Dr. Felix would tell me to take the rest of the night to rest, but I knew that, so I didn't need to hear it from him. I wandered around until I found Tommy and Kim in their room, Tommy working on his computer while Kim was reading.

"Hey." Tommy and Kim turned, stopping what they were doing.

"Well, look who's up." Tommy smiled.

"You gave us quite a scare." Kim said, I sat down on the bed.

"Sorry." I said simply. "I didn't rest as long as I probably needed to before the battle." I told them.

"Jason said he will call you tomorrow. He wants to talk to you." Tommy said. I nodded and looked around.

"Are you two leaving?" I asked, noticing their packed bags.

"Our flight leaves tomorrow afternoon." Kim stated. "We have to prepare for Summer School." I sighed, wishing they didn't have to leave.

"You'll be ok." Tommy said, knowing what was going through my head.

"You did exactly what you needed." Kim said, sitting down next to me. "You were able to face a big challenge and you learned a few new things." Kim smiled.

"It's true." I smiled. "Thanks to you." Kim hugged me. "I just wish we had a little more time together." I added. "It's been nice having you two here, even if I pushed you away at the end."

"You never pushed us away." Kim added quickly. "You did what you thought you had to do to protect us, and we knew that was going to happen."

"We're glad we could help you." Tommy said, resting a hand on my shoulder. "You know we are always here for you."

"Thank you both." I stood up. "I should go and let the others know I'm ok."

"And get some food and sleep." Kim told me. I smiled.

"Yes." I agreed. "I am done for the night."

"Good." Tommy smiled. "Good night."

"Good night." I said, turning and leaving the room. I made my way to the lounge. I walked in and spotted Z, Syd, Bridge and Sky on the couch. Sky and Bridge were playing a video game while Z was reading, and Syd was looking at a magazine.

"Hey." I said, making them turn.

"You ok?" Z asked, lowering the book she was reading.

"Yes." I said simply "I'm not going to overuse my powers like that again."

"Good." Sky said. "Lightball?"

"Shouldn't you guys be resting?" I asked. "Because I don't think Lightball falls in that category."

"She's probably right." Z said, not looking up from her book. I smiled as I grabbed an apple and a water. "I'll be in my room, answering emails, if you need me." I said, heading to my room. I answered emails from Zack, Maddison, Adam and Carter before going to bed.


I slept through the night, which was good because the trainings and the battle left me worn. When I woke, I got dressed and was ready to head out of my room to meet up with Tommy and Kim when the phone rang in the lounge. I was the only one in the lounge when I came out, so I answered it.

"Hello, this is Emily Richardson of SPD, how can I help you?"

"Hey Emma."

"Hey Jason." I said, sitting down. "Tommy and Kim told me you were going to call, but I wasn't expecting it to be so early."

"I wanted to make sure I caught you before you got too busy."

"Me? Busy? You must be thinking of someone else." Jason chuckled.

"How are you?" Jason asked.

"I've been better, and I've felt worse." I told him simply.

"Tommy and Kim have been keeping me updated for the last week." Jason said. "You've improved your magic I hear."

"I did." I said. "Still coming along."

"Training will help you improve." Jason said.

"I know." I told him. "It helps that I have a place I can train."

"You are pretty lucky to have a training room that you can use."

"Plus, Kat made a training course to help me channel my powers." I explained. "That helps a lot too."

"Yes, it does." Jason said. "So, I was thinking, when things settle down, we would plan for you to come to Angel Grove and meet with your family." I was silent. "I know you are interested, and now is not a good time, but I think you would benefit from coming down." Jason explained. "I would come pick you up and drive you out here. We can figure out other details when we finally get things situated."

"Ok, but you are right, now is not a good time." I told him. "Especially after everything that has happened, I need my own time to process it all." I explained. "Plus, it would be nice to really get this new magic trick I have learned down." Jason chuckled.

"Makes sense to me. We will keep in touch about it all." Jason said. "I have to go and get back to work, but we will talk again soon."

"Alright, I'll talk to you later. Bye."

"Bye." I hung up the phone. I headed towards the Command Center where Tommy and Kat were letting everyone know what to expect from me.

"She may be distant, but in time she will be herself, changed, but herself." Kim said as I walked up.

"But, no one ever said that change was bad." I said, giving her a small smile. "I'll be fine. I promise I will be."

"We know you think you will be, but there will always be bad days and good days." Tommy said, wrapping his arm around my shoulder. "Just take it all one step at a time."

"And," Kim added. "Don't be afraid to talk about it." Kim said. "Even if it means calling me and leaving me a message or sending me an email, whatever you need to do to make yourself feel better." I nodded. I gave Tommy a hug before giving Kim a hug.

"Don't worry Kim, I will call, or email, if I need you." I told her. She gave me a look. "I promise." Kim smiled.

"Good!" Kim said. Tommy turned towards Kim.

"We've got to go if we are going to catch our flight." Tommy told Kim.

"Right." Kim grabbed her stuff. "You know what to do." Kim said to me. I nodded. Tommy grabbed his bag.

"I'll talk to you later. Safe travels!" I said. Tommy and Kim left. Kat looked at me.

"How are you feeling?" Kat asked.

"Well rested." I told Kat. "I'm ready to continue my training." Kat gave me a look.

"There is no training today." Kat said simply. I looked at Kat, taken aback.

"Why not?" I asked. "I'm not on restriction, so why am I not training?"

"We are not doing our training today because you have used the training course without supervision, and after yesterday, you need to take a day off."

"But I don't need to take a day off." I stated. "I am ready to keep moving."

"No." Kat stated simply. "Commander Cruger and I discussed it, you will take a day from all training." My mouth dropped open.

"That's not fair!" I exclaimed. "All I did was train to defeat Kinesis, nothing else. So why, am I getting punished for it?"

"It's not a punishment." Kat said simply. "You need a day off. A full day off to comprehend what all has happened." Kat explained. "Plus, you need to fully recover from yesterday."

"But…"

"Emma." Z interrupted. "Don't fight it." I looked at Z. Instead of arguing, I huffed and turned away, walking back towards the lounge.

"Kat…are you sure that was necessary?" Syd asked. Kat didn't look at them.

"Don't you four have to meet with Dr. Felix?" Kat asked them simply.

"Come on guys." Sky said. "Let's go." Sky, Syd, Bridge, and Z left Kat behind and headed towards Dr. Felix's office.


I went straight to my room and laid on my bed, frustrated that I wasn't able to do my normal training. After all I had done to defeat Kinesis fair and square, and how much training I did to make sure I followed all the SPD rules and not overexert myself, I wasn't able to train. And as much as I wanted to go train, I knew it would get me on Kat and Commander Cruger bad side. I rubbed my face before sitting up. Out of the corner of my eye I spotted my rollerblades sitting next to my dresser. I stood up, grabbed my shoulder bag, my CD player and headphones, my mix CD of Vida's and a book before grabbing my rollerblades, leaving my Morpher behind. If I can't train, then I wasn't going to be on call either. Before leaving the lounge, I grabbed an apple and a water before heading out. Once outside, I sat down by the water fountain, took my shoes and put them in my bag and quickly put my rollerblades on. I put my headphones on, turning on my music before shoving the CD player into my bag and shrugging my bag over my head and heading out.


Sky, Syd, Bridge and Z walked into the lounge after being examined by Dr. Felix.

"Cleared!" Sky said, sitting down on the couch. "We can get back to our regular duties as well as fight."

"Not fully." Z reminded him. "Dr. Felix said we can return to our regular duties, but we still have to take it easy." Z grabbed a water. "Dr. Felix will make sure of it."

"I feel bad for Emma." Syd said, sitting down on the couch. "She seemed upset about not training."

"She decided to break Kat's rule with her training course, a day off is nothing." Sky stated.

"We all broken rules before, but at least she didn't break SPD rules, like some of us have." Syd pointed out.

"She was just lucky that it wasn't worse." Sky stated, picking up his book from where he left it.

"I just hope she's not taking this too hard." Z stated, joining them on the couch. "She's been through a lot the past week, and it's a lot to process."

"What if we got turned evil?" Bridge spoke, making Syd, Z and Sky exchanged a glance with each other.

"What are you talking about?" Syd asked.

"I don't want to start this conversation." Z said, standing up and walking away.

"But what if."

"No." Sky told Bridge, shaking his head. "No." Bridge shrugged and headed to his room. Sky let out a deep sigh and went back to his reading.


After lunch, Sky went to train with C and D Squad Cadets while Bridge went with Boom to work on some computer upgrades. Syd and Z were sitting on the couch reading, taking this time to rest up. Eventually Sky and Bridge returned and joined Syd and Z. RIC came in and dropped his ball at Sky's feet, making Sky play catch with him.

After a while, Commander Cruger entered.

"I am glad to see you are all using this time well." Sky, Syd, Z and Bridge stopped what they were doing and stood up quickly.

"I can't tell if you are trying to be serious or not." Bridge said, thinking hard.

"Where is Cadet Richardson?" Cruger asked.

"We haven't seen her since this morning, after Kat told her she had a day off from trainings." Syd stated.

"We just assumed she was in her room." Z added. "She seemed pretty upset about not having training." Cruger walked over towards my door. The door opened and Cruger peered in. Z, Syd, Bridge and Sky joined Cruger and peered in. Cruger walked in and picked up my morpher before looking at the rangers.

"And none of you saw her leave?" Cruger asked.

"No sir." Sky said simply.

"After the Oliver's left, and Kat told Emma about training, we had to go and get examined by Dr. Felix." Z explained. "She must have left while we were there." Cruger put my morpher down.

"Find her." Cruger said before leaving the lounge. Sky, Z, Syd and Bridge looked at each other.

"If she's not in her room, I wonder where she is." Syd wonder.

"I was training C and D Squad Cadets; I didn't see her near there."

"She wouldn't go there if she knew you would be there." Syd stated. "I know I wouldn't if I was told no training." Z walked into my room and looked around.

"Well, we are not going to find her just standing around her now are we." Sky stated. "Let's go."

"Wait." Z said, still examining the room.

"What's up Z?" Bridge asked.

"Something is missing." Z pointed out.

"Her shoulder bag is gone." Syd said, looking around.

"And her rollerblades are gone as well." Z added. She turned to face her friends. "She left."

"She'll be back." Sky stated simply. "Everything else is here."

"Well, you heard Command Cruger." Syd stated. "We have to go find her."

"No you don't." I said behind them making them jump. Sky, Syd, Z and Bridge turned to face me. I pushed past them and set my rollerblades and shoulder bag down. I took my headphones off and set them next to my bag. "What's going on? Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Where were you?" Sky asked. "Commander Cruger came looking for you."

"I went rollerblading and stopped at the park to read a little bit of my book." I told them. "And rollerbladed some more. I needed to decompress." I explained looking confused. "Why was Commander looking for me?"

"Why didn't you take your Morpher with you?" Z asked. "What if we needed you?"

"I can't train so why should I be on call?" I asked simply. "Kat said I needed to fully recover from yesterday anyway." I added. "Again, why was Commander Cruger looking for me?"

"We don't know. He didn't say." Syd stated. I walked out of my room and started for the door. Sky, Syd, Z and Bridge followed. I stopped and turned around. "What are you guys doing?"

"Command Center." Sky stated. I looked at Sky.

"You don't need to follow me." I told them simply. "Command Cruger was looking for me. If he needed you, you would already know what he had to say." I turned and walked towards the Command Center.

"Should we follow?" Bridge asked.

"No." Z said simply. "We need to give her space."

"And she's right." Sky said simply. "If Command Cruger wanted to talk to us, he would have."


I will be adding to this story as often as I can. I have almost everything written, I just have to wrap up the ending!

Got a little side tracked, but I still have been writing.
