"You think they have what it takes?" Shane asked over the video call. Sarah shrugged her shoulders.

"Is there really a way to know? Half the time, Oedius had us beat and we still found a way to stop her."

Shane nodded his head, "I guess that's true. But, just in case, you know you have an army at your beck and call, right? You may be on the other side of the country now, but I'll be there for you in a heartbeat, and so will the other Rangers."

"I know," Sarah smiled, though his comment did hit hard, she didn't want to show it. While she was thrilled at the job she received in Coral Harbour and was happy to be living with her fiancée, she still did miss home. She missed hanging out with her friends everyday and she missed her family. "How's the move going?"

"It's coming along," Shane told her. Now that Sarah had moved out, he had decided to sell the apartment he bought in Summer Cove so he could move back to Blue Bay Harbour and be closer to work and his friends. He had only moved out to be closer to Sarah and now that she was gone, there was nothing keeping him there. "I owe the guys a couple of pizzas, though. Price I pay for not getting a moving truck."

"Sounds like you saved a few bucks, then," Sarah chuckled.

"You haven't seen the guys eat," Shane shook his head. "Anyways, I have class in the morning. Stay safe, kid. I love you."

"I love you too," Sarah said and blew her uncle a kiss before closing her laptop. She turned to Kelly, who had just finished with her own work. "Do these calls get any easier?"

"When they do, I'll let you know," Kelly chuckled. "Once we're settled in, we can start to have some of the guys over. I know Aaron can't wait to see what kind of house Grid Battleforce would buy their employees."

"I guess we should probably consider getting a guest bedroom set up," Sarah agreed.

"Or we hold off on that for a bit," Kelly smirked. "We have a house to ourselves; you know. And if evil comes knocking, we have a team of Rangers who aren't us who can take care of it. Neither of us has anymore work to do tonight…" she trailed off with a smirk. Sarah looked to her.

"What are you proposing?"

"You know what I want," Kelly said. Sarah made her way over, leaned down for a kiss but was interrupted when there was a knock at the door. "Ignore it," Kelly told her, but then there was another knock, this one more persistent.

"I'll get rid of them," Sarah assured her. Kelly sighed.

"Fine. I'll just roll myself into the bedroom then," she teased, feigning sadness. Sarah chuckled as she made her way to the door. She didn't think to check who would be on the other side, assuming it was just someone going door to door, so she was surprised when she opened the door to find Kathryn standing on the other side.

"Mom?"

"Dead mom or jailed mom?" Kelly said as she raced back into the room after she heard Sarah. She really believed it could go either way.

Jenny was dead, that much was certain, but Kelly had already seen people come back from the dead enough to know that there was a chance it was Jenny on the other side of the door. However, logically more likely, it was Kathryn on the other side.

Kathryn had escaped prison once, just before the Rangers defeated Oedius for good. At the time, she wanted to talk to Sarah, claiming she wanted to make amends for what she had done. Gia refused to let Kathryn get close, and only brought her around to Ninja Ops because stopping Oedius from destroying the city was more pressing than getting her back to prison.

After Kelly jumped on top of Sarah to save her from the ship exploding in their final battle, she had spent a lot of time in the hospital. The only update she got about Kathryn was that she had returned voluntarily to prison without talking to Sarah. Since she wasn't dead, it was more likely she was standing at their door then Jenny, but Kelly had been sure they were rid of her for good.

Unfortunately, that didn't seem to be the case. Sarah stood at the door, frozen as she stared at the woman who had done nothing but harm to her. Kathryn seemed to understand that. She didn't press Sarah to be invited in and instead turned to Kelly.

"One night, please," she begged. "I'll explain why I'm here; I'll explain what I want."

"We owe you nothing," Kelly growled. "You owe us the decency of never having to see you again."

"I'm sober," Kathryn stated.

"We're not interested in your twelve steps."

"This is more than that," Kathryn said. "Please, I just want one night to explain myself."

Kelly shook her head and was about to slam the door when Sarah stopped her. She looked to her fiancée, "I want to hear it."

"Sarah…"

"I want to hear what kind of explanation justifies what she did."

"None."

"I'm not asking for money, or a place to stay beyond tonight. I'll say what I want to say tonight, and I'll be out of here before you go to work tomorrow, if that's what you want."

Kelly wanted to say no. This woman wasn't just vile, she was evil. Kelly didn't care about the choices she had made for herself. It was her body and so her choice, especially since it seemed like she enjoyed letting Drex control her. She had started a family with him, and seemed to choose him over anything else, even if it would provide her with a better life. What made her evil was the choices she forced onto other women, especially the ones who couldn't speak or stand up for themselves. She tried to raise two children in a brothel, surrounded by dangerous men and dangerous substances. She let Drex abuse them in the name of discipline. When Sarah was old enough, Kathryn devised the plan to kidnap her, determined to pimp out her own daughter so she could keep the money coming in.

Kathryn was a bad person. Unfortunately, she was also Sarah's biological mother, and while that meant very little to Kelly, Sarah seemed to want to get some answers.

"You get one night," Kelly told her. "And if I see you at all in the morning, I'm calling the police."

"I won't be any trouble," Kathryn promised.
