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: This is one of the longer chapters. So far. This is where all the Rangers, and their kids, are introduced. Tedious, I know, but once it's done with, the exciting stuff begins. Sorry if this isn't one of the best chapters, but this is the only one this boring, I promise.

Last
time
Elektra said, closing her notebook. "Sounds like
a plan. We could all use the time to relax before we get too heavily
occupied with training to fight Lamia and her teivels." Alex smiled
and left her room.
Now...
Chapter Nine: Flag
Football and a Change
The next morning, Elektra, Faolan, Cami, Nic, Violca, and Torin were eating breakfast when the others walked into the workbay. Elektra had put in the new program just before breakfast. Alex smiled and sat next to his sister as the all the former rangers and their kids got breakfast. He asked, making the rangers and their kids look at them.
"What should we do first when we get to Earth?"
Elektra shrugged and shoved a fork full of pancakes into her mouth as Tammie Oliver asked, grinning at the Space Rangers. "You guys are going to Earth?"
Violca looked at her leader while saying. "This is news to us."
Elektra swallowed her pancakes and said, after drinking some milk. "After Alex and I had a talk last night," Her friends eye brows shot up. "We decided that we need to do something . . . fun before we started training intensively to fight Lamia and her teivels."
Cami grinned at her younger cousin. "What did you say to her?"
Alex smiled softly at his older sister and said, making Elektra look down at her food. "I told her that she's the best sister a guy could have, that I loved her, and that she's my hero."
Cami hugged him and said, smiling at him. "You're amazing, you know that?"
Elektra looked up and said, her eyes brighter than normal. "Let's not make his head grow, Cam."
Alex slugged his sister gently in the arm. "Ha. Ha. Ha. You're funny."
Elektra shrugged and replied, rolling her eyes. "I try so hard."
Alex smirked. "I can tell." Elektra shook her head and Alex asked. "So . . . what fun are we going to have today?"
Elektra sighed and said. "Why don't we ask a native to Angel Grove. They pro-"
"You're going to Angel Grove?!" Karen Scott asked, grinning.
Cami grinned. "If we can figure out what we're doing."
Walt Taylor yelled out, shocking the group. "Carnival!"
His twin sister, Deena, shook her head at her brother. "Hell no. Yo stupid ass got us kicked out last time."
"Deena!" Zach said, scolding his daughter. "There are younger children in the room."
Deena looked sorry. "Oops." Zach rolled his eyes at his daughter.
"Just watch it, Dee." Deena smiled at her father and he smiled back.
Elektra had been watching the loving exchange and felt her chest tighten. Elektra got up and said, her eyes dull, just as they had been before. "Well, let's all meet on the bridge in an hour and we'll go from there."
Elektra was the first to leave and Deena asked, looking at Cami. "What just happened?"
Cami sighed and replied, glaring at her uncle. "Not much. Lek just suffers from lack of love from her father."
Andros felt a headache coming on. "I've already explained-"
"Well it's the dumbest explanation I've ever heard!" Cami replied before she, too, left the room.
Alex said, getting up and shaking his head. "I have to agree with Lek and Cami on this one. The way you've alienated her, just because she's a girl, and first born, is wrong." He left the room with the other Space Rangers following him.
Andros turned to Ashley and asked. "When did he and Eris start getting along?"
"Last night." Violca replied as she turned to face them. "I was going to go in and tell the brat to buzz off when I heard what he said to her. Despite the way you two have spoiled and favored him, he's a very sweet guy. He's proud to have Elektra as his sister and we, the Space team, are proud to have her as our leader." Then she turned and left the workbay.
Teddy Oliver, Tammie's older brother, said, looking at his sister and friends. "What do you say we get ready to go with them and give them the grand tour?"
Gabby DeSantos grinned. "I say you're on. Lek said an hour?" Tammie nodded and group left to get ready, leaving the adults in the workbay.
An hour later, the fifteen of them were standing on the bridge. Olivia Johnson said, looping her arm around Elektra's. "We're your unofficial tour guides for Angel Grove, California."
Elektra looked at the girl and couldn't help but smile. "Thank you, Livie."
Livie smiled and Aiden said, grinning. "Well, let's get started."
"DECA," Elektra said, looking at her new friends. "Fifteen to teleport down to Angel Grove."
"Teleporting now." The AI said, and the fifteen were soon in Angel Grove Park.
"I say we play some flag football!" Aiden Johnson said, grinning.
Elektra, Alex, Cami, Faolan, Violca, Nic, and Torin looked confused. Elektra asked, blinking. "What is this game?"
Livie grinned. "We'll introduce you. It goes like this..."

Elektra, Alex, Cami, Faolan, Violca, Nic, and Torin were having lots of fun playing flag football when the other rangers arrived with their kids. Elektra flipped through the air and caught the ball, landing in her team's declared end zone. Teddy smiled and swung her around.
"Great job!"
Elektra blushed and replied, giving him a tiny smile. "Thanks."
Teddy smiled back and set her down on her feet. "No problem." Tommy cleared his throat and Teddy blushed as he stepped away from Elektra, who was blushing profusely.
Tommy smiled. "So what game are you guys playing?"
Tammie smiled at her dad and replied. "Flag football."
Teddy grinned. "And we won!"
Tammie stuck her tongue out at her brother. "Only because you got Elektra, Alex, and Cami on your team."
Elektra smiled at the younger girl and said, her eyes sparkling for the first time in years. "You have Violca, Faolan, Torin, and Nic on your team."
Tammie grinned at her and said, hugging her. "Yeah, I know." The teens laughed and Elektra rolled her eyes.
Cami locked eyes with her mother and they smiled at each other. The walls around Elektra's heart were slowly melting.
Cami threw her arm around her cousin's shoulders and said, smiling. "Well, I think we've got some more time before lunch. What do you say we play some more football?" Elektra smiled and the teens went back to their game.

Later that day, Elektra went into a grocery store and found herself in an aisle full of boxes of different hair colors. Cami, Livie, Tammie, and Teddy came up next to her and Cami asked, grinning.
"What do we have here?"
Livie grinned. "These are boxes of hair color. Thinking of dying your hair?"
Elektra's eyes widened. "I'm not thinking of killing my hair!"
Livie covered her mouth. "Shh! No, I mean are you thinking about making your hair a different color?"
Elektra looked back at the boxes of hair color and replied, biting her lower lip. "I might, if I found the right color."
Cami smiled and said. "I think it'll be a nice change."
Elektra browsed the hair colors and found Hawaiian Sun, which was a honey blonde. It was non-permanent, lasting about six weeks, and Elektra liked the shade. She looked over at her cousin and friends and asked, holding it up. "What do you think of this color?"
Teddy looked at it and looked at her before smiling at her. "I like it. I think you would really good with blonde hair."
Elektra smiled and Tammie, Livie, and Cami agreed with him. Tammie said, grinning. "It'll be a really cool color."
Cami nodded and Livie said, taking the box. "I'll buy the box of color for you and we'll help you color your hair. Consider it an aide in rebelling against your stupid parents."
Elektra smiled and said, looping her arm through Livie's. "I'll take you up on that." They laughed and Livie went to pay for the box of hair color.
As they walked out, Cami and Elektra hung back. Cami asked, smiling at her cousin.
"The walls you put up around your heart are falling."
Elektra nodded, a smile making it's way across her face. "They are and you know what?"
"What?"
Elektra smiled and said. "I like the feeling." Cami grinned and they went back up to the Megaship.

Livie helped Elektra with her hair and eyebrows and when both were dry, Elektra nearly didn't recognize herself. Her honey-blonde hair and her colored eyebrows made her tanned skin more pronounced. Elektra smiled and asked, turning to Livie.
"You like it?"
Livie nodded. "Totally. You look a lot like your Aunt Karone. Now let's go surprise everyone." Elektra nodded and they left for the bridge.
When they reached the doors, Elektra took a deep breath before nodding. They walked onto the bridge, and her teammates smiled. Violca walked over to her and said, fingering Elektra's newly died hair.
"I like it."
Elektra smiled. "Thanks, Vi." Violca smiled back and went back to her work.
Teddy whistled softly before walking over to her and saying. "It looks good."
Elektra bit her lip, her heart flipping in her chest. "Thanks, Teddy." Teddy smiled back and went back to what he had been doing while Elektra went to her post.
One by one, the former rangers noticed the changed, both her new hair color and her new outlook, and smiled at each other. The walls they had sensed around her were now melting. Leo looked at Karone and said, half smiling.
"You know, if I didn't know any better, I'd say she was yours. She looks a lot like you, Karone."
Karone smiled at her friend and replied while looking at her niece. "Yeah, she does."
Alex asked, finally getting their parents attention. "So why the color change?"
Elektra replied, looking up from the reports she had been studying. "Because I felt like it and," her eyes narrowed as she glared at her parents. "I didn't feel like looking like Mother and Father. Not anymore." Alex nodded and Cassie said, walking over to her.
"Come on, now. You should give them a-"
"Chance?" Elektra asked, her tone clipped, as she faced Cassie.
Cassie nodded. "Yeah."
Elektra shook her head. "No." She turned back to the reports and Cassie said, getting slightly angry at her best friend's daughter, not able to believe that her best friend and her best friend's husband could have hurt her that much.
"They couldn't of hurt you that much."
Elektra's eyes narrowed. "Oh really?" At Cassie's nod, her friends all groaned. Elektra said, her voice deadly calm. "Every time Father dropped me off at Cami's house, I would call back to him and say, 'I love you, daddy' and he would say nothing, wouldn't even acknowledge me. Before I realized that they didn't really love me, he was my hero. I wanted to be just like him," tears and pain filled her chocolate brown eyes. "I wanted to be the red ranger and save the universe." Memories flitted across her mind and she continued.
"As I got older, I realized how little they loved me and you know what? It felt like my heart was ripped out of my chest and stomped on. It hurt me so badly to realize that they didn't love me. I wanted them to love me so badly. I studied hard, was at the top of my class, but they still didn't love me. So I gave up and closed off my heart so that I would never have to go through all that pain again." She wiped her tears away and walked off of the bridge.
