Andros' Daughter
Disclaimer: Don't own the Power Rangers. Just Eris and her friends!
Summary: It's seventeen years after the Countdown to Destruction and the rangers get together for a reunion and they bring their families. Eris Morana Yanisin is Andros and Ashley's first born child. And their daughter. Very slight Ashley bashing, more Andros bashing. R&R for me please!
AN: I forgot to mention this, but it's currently 2015 and Eris, Nic, Faolan, and Cami were born in 1999 while Torin and Violca were born in 2000. Just to give you guys an idea of what the year is and how old people are. This is also another sad chapter. Sorry.
Shout outs
Phantom Rogue: I'm glad you love it. I know, I felt kind of bad for him, but it was too funny to pass up lol. Yup. Andros is still firmly an idiot. I know, she totally kicks ass. I know. I just had to throw that in there. Here's the next chapter!
Titanium Ranger: Thanks! I know, sorry about chapter 4, but at least it's over. Hmm... well there is an argument in this chapter, but it isn't between Andros/Zhane or Andros/ Elektra. I think you'll enjoy this one. I'm glad you love it cause here's the next chapter!

MagykGurl: Hey! A new reviewer! Alright! I'm glad you like the story line! Here's the next chapter!
Red Dragon Spirit Ranger: I'm glad you liked it! Thank you! Someone finally shut him up! God! He was getting really annoying. I just might have to do something to him in this chapter... Hm... Brainwashing to be nice has some merit, but Ashley would totally break it. Sigh. Oops. I knew I was missing something when I forgot to put in her description. Well, you'll get a description, not this chapter, but next. In the mean time... Here's the next chapter!
Ashley Hammond Astro Yellow: I'm glad you loved it! Yeah, It's just going to say Elektra now. Here's the next chapter!
Last time
Nic replied, as he showed Adam and Tanya to their room. "Elektra doesn't care as long as it doesn't get in our face. Besides, there's no rule on how long your hair can or cannot be. If there were, the girls would certainly be breaking it." Carter sighed and knew he wouldn't get anywhere with Nic. "Oh," the young man turned around and said, giving Carter a cool look. "Don't call me Nicolae, the name's Nic." Then he finished giving them their room assignments and went back up to the bridge as they settled in.
Now...
Chapter Six- Mother and Daughter Talk
Ashley was walking around the Megaship, memories of her time as the Yellow Space Ranger and of her and Andros getting together flooding through her mind. She remembered when she first told him they were going to be parents. They had been so happy...
Flashback
Ashley
could hardly believe it. She looked down at the stick and at the
results Cassie had given her. Slowly, a smile spread across her face.
She placed a hand on her lower abdomen and smiled as she thought
about the tiny life that was beginning to grow within her.
Ashley set the results aside and went to tell Andros. She found him sitting with Karone and Zhane. Karone and Zhane had gotten married a little over two months ago, four months after Ashley and Andros had gotten married.
Ashley walked onto the Simudeck and said, glowing with happiness. "Andros, could I talk to you for a second?"
Andros nodded. "Sure." They went into the hall and Ashley said, unable to contain her excitement any longer.
"We're having a baby!"
Andros was stunned. "Really?"
Ashley nodded. "Yes! We're going to have a baby!" Andros picked her up and swung her around in a circle.
"We're going to be parents!" Andros set her down and placed his hand on her still flat lower abdomen. He asked, looking at her. "Will we be good parents?"
Ashley smiled and replied. "We'll be great parents."
Andros smiled and said, kneeling in front of Ashley and speaking to her belly. "Be a good boy for Mommy."
Ashley raised an eyebrow. "Boy? It could be a girl."
Andros smiled and said, kissing Ashley. "I don't care what the sex is as long as he or she is healthy."
End Flashback
Ashley felt unbidden tears flood her eyes. She went back to her room and took out the photo album she had brought to show Cassie. As Ashley flipped through the book, she realized that there were very little pictures of her daughter. More of Andros, Alex, and herself together as a family.
Ashley closed the photo album as Karone and Cassie walked in. She looked up at them and said, a tear slipping down her cheek.
"I've failed my daughter."
Karone went over to Ashley and said, hugging her. "Ashley," Karone looked up at Cassie and Cassie said, setting the photo album, which she had just flipped through, aside.
"You haven't failed her, Ash."
Ashley replied, sobbing. "Yes I did. When Andros and I first learned we were going to be parents we said that we didn't care what the sex of the baby was as long as it was healthy. I've alienated my daughter, and I don't know if I can ever repair what I've done."
Karone held her sister-in-law in her arms and said, stroking Ashley's hair. "You need to talk to Elektra about this, Ash. She's the wronged party here, not us." Cassie gave Karone a look and Karone shook her head, mouthing later.
Ashley got up and dried her tears. "Right. I'll see you guys later." Ashley left and Cassie asked, glaring at Karone.
"Why did you say that? Ashley hasn't failed her daughter."
Karone glared back. "You don't know what it's been like for Elektra. Andros and Ashley have alienated her and ignored her in favor of her brother. Andros and Ashley's first born was to be heir to his red morpher so they both knew it had to be a son Ashley was carrying. But it wasn't and they gave her the name Eris Morana Yanisin. Eris means Strife, Morana means death, and Yanisin means ashamed."
Cassie dropped onto the bed, shocked. "Oh my God." She looked up at Karone and asked. "How did she-"
Karone replied, sitting next to the former Pink Space Ranger. "Zhane and I practically raised her with Cami so we were there for all of Elektra's firsts. The two are best friends as well as cousins and they're inseparable." Cassie sighed and wondered what had happened to her best friend. Her best friend who hadn't cared what her first child was as long as it was healthy. Cassie looked at the door and wondered if she'd ever know.

Ashley went up to the bridge and asked. "DECA, where's Er- Elektra?"
DECA replied, her red eye pointed at Ashley. "Elektra is in the Simudeck, training with Cameo, Violca, Faolan, Nic, and Torin."
Ashley nodded, a small smile on her face. "Thank you DECA." Ashley walked to the Simudeck and saw the six working together in perfect unison.
Ashley watched them until the simulation ended. Elektra said, her arms out in the air with her hands up vertically.
"DECA, stop simulation." The training simulation ended and the rangers powered down. They turned to leave when they saw Ashley watching them.
Faolan said, looking between mother and daughter. 'We'll be on the bridge looking for any information available on Lamia." Eris nodded and her friends left.
Ashley said, walking over to her daughter. "You train just like your father did when we were rangers." Ashley stood in front of her daughter and said, studying her carefully. "You look like him too, with your hair and your eyes."
Eris shook her head. "Don't say that! I do not wish to look nor do I EVER wish to act, anything like the man that calls himself my father." She turned away from Ashley.
Ashley blinked and said, hurt. "Eris, that's not fair. He's your fa-"
Eris whirled around and asked, tears shining in her eyes. "Not fair? Not fair?! I'll tell you what's not fair! My brother having parents, isn't fair! My brother having his parents attend everything he's in, isn't fair! My brother being loved, isn't fair! My brother having everything he wants, isn't fair!" Tears were sliding down her cheeks as her father and the other rangers including her teammates, who heard her, walked in. "If it hadn't of been for Uncle Zhane and Aunt Karone, I would turned into a cold, bitter person! If I had gotten even a tenth of the love and attention my brother got when he was growing up, I would have been happy. I learned nothing from my childhood with you and Father except that no matter how much you will it, no matter how much you love someone, they won't love you back! I loved both you and Father so much it hurt when you refused to acknowledge me and all I got for my love was ignorance, coldness. So don't talk to me about fair." She raced out of the room, tears streaming down her cheeks.
Ashley stood there, tears falling down her cheeks. Andros walked over to her and hugged her. Cami said, blinking back her own tears. "I'm going to go see if I can find her."
Violca nodded. "I'll come with you." Together, the two left and TJ asked, looking at his wife.
"What just happened?"
Cassie replied, wiping away the tears that threatened to fall down her cheeks. "I think Elektra just let out what she's been feeling." The rangers looked at each other before TJ said, looking at Andros and Ashley.
"We need to talk."

Cami and Violca found Eris in her room, laying on her bed, sobbing. The two walked over to their leader and sat down on either side of her. Cami rubbed her back and said softly.
"Hey, sweetie. Guess you cracked huh?"
Eris looked up at her cousin with red-rimmed eyes and replied, wiping away her tears.
"It won't be happening again." Cami sighed. Eris was closing up again.
"Elektra, you can't just bottle everything up. You have to let it out otherwise you're going to crack like an egg and no one will be able to help you."
Eris got up and said her usual, emotionless, face in place. "I need to go see how the search is going." Then she left, leaving Cami and Violca still sitting on her bed.
