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!

"Course acknowledged. Setting course now." The ship lurched and started for home; for KO-35.

Now...

Chapter 11- Funerals, breakdown, and Choosing

When the Megaship arrived on KO-35, there was a crowd waiting for them. Elektra swallowed hard and Cami hugged her. "Don't worry. No one's going to blame you, I promise." Elektra nodded and she landed the Megaship.

Elektra and Cami went down to the hatch and opened the door. Kinwon and Tykwa were standing there, waiting for the team to come out. Elektra and Cami walked off of the Megaship, followed by the bodies of their fallen friends. The two girls stood in front of Kinwon and Tykwa and Elektra said, tears filling her eyes.

"I'm sorry, Kinwon. I failed as a leader. Faolan, Nic, Violca, and Torin were killed by Lamia's forces."

Kinwon pulled Elektra into a hug and she sobbed, her knees giving out from under her.

Kinwon knelt to the ground with Elektra and held her as she cried. Kinwon looked at Cami, who was in Tykwa's arms, sobbing softly and knew this was something that would not be forgotten.

Violca's, Faolan's, and Torin's parents came forward and Elektra stood up. She said, tears falling down her cheeks. "I'm sorry, Veanya, Feric, and Trystron. I'm so sorry."

Veanya, Violca's mother, stepped forward and hugged the young woman before her. She said, her motherly instincts kicking in. "Hush, hush. I don't blame you. None of us do. We know that you did everything you could to save our children. Thank you for bringing them home."

Elektra nodded, wiping away her tears. "I couldn't leave them there."

Feric, Faolan's father, squeezed her shoulder and said, tears forming in his blue eyes that were just like Faolan's. "We could never blame you, Elektra. Our children knew what they were getting into when they became Rangers and we knew that there was a possibility of them coming home dead. They were in great hands, Elektra, and I wouldn't have trusted anyone else."

Elektra nodded, tears filling her eyes. "Trystron?"

Trystron, Torin's father, hugged her and said, his bottom lip trembling. "I knew from the moment my son met you, that he met a great friend for life. Whenever he visited home, he always said that you were his best friend and the best sister he never had." Elektra cried and Trystron held her.

Nuadah, Nic's father, said, turning to leave. "Well, I say good riddance. Nicolae was a pain that I didn't really want to deal with anyway. What a disgrace..."

Elektra glared at Nic's father and said, fire lighting in her eyes. "How dare you. HOW DARE YOU! NIC GAVE HIS LIFE FIGHTING FOR THE UNIVERSE AND YOU HAVE THE NERVE TO CALL HIM A DISGRACE?!" Her fist slammed into Nuadah's nose. "YOU'RE THE DISGRACE!" She stormed off and Cami glared at the man before going after her cousin.

Elektra and Cami were sitting with the families at the funerals. Elektra and Cami both had tears flowing down their cheeks and were holding hands. Faolan's casket was lowered into the ground and Elektra bowed her head as a sign of respect for her fallen teammates and siblings. Violca, Torin, and Nic joined him and Elektra and Cami put their heads together, silently crying.

After the funeral, Elektra saw her mother walking over to her and Elektra felt her bottom lip tremble. She threw her arms around her mother and cried. Ashley held her daughter and felt her heartache. She said, stroking her daughter's hair.

"Hey, hey. It's gonna be ok."

Elektra shook her head. "It hurts, Mama. It hurts and I don't think it'll ever stop hurting."

"Oh Elektra, if I could take away the pain you feel, I would do it in a heartbeat, but I can't and I am so sorry.' Elektra buried her head in her mother's neck and cried. Ashley just held her daughter and knew that this was a new beginning for them as mother and daughter.

When they got back to the Megaship, Elektra and Cami went into the conference room and locked everyone out. The former rangers understood why; they needed to choose four new teammates. At one point, Alex had gone into the conference room and came out looking quiet relieved.

Elektra asked, looking up at her Cousin. "What do you think of these four?"

Cami nodded. "I think they would make excellent additions to the team."

Elektra nodded. "Alright, let's go tell them." They got up and Elektra grabbed the box containing the four morphers.

Elektra and Cami walked onto the bridge and the former rangers looked up. Elektra looked at Cami and Cami nodded. Elektra said, blinking. "Cami and I have been discussing possible teammates for the last two hours and we have come to a decision."

Cami squeezed her cousin and sister's hand and said, looking at the former rangers. "Our decision was not easy to make; the deaths of our friends and teammates is still fresh in our minds. There were moments during our meeting when we almost decided not to hand out the four morphers and to put them in the Mega Vault. But then, it hit us.

"Faolan, Violca, Nic, and Torin wouldn't have wanted us to mourn their loss forever. They would have wanted us to choose new teammates and defeat Lamia. Before we announce our choices for the morphers, we need to ask the adults in the room a question." The former rangers looked expectantly at the two rangers standing before them.

Elektra asked, making eye contact with each and every one of them. "Those of you with children 15, 16 years old, would you mind if we chose your child to be a ranger? Please feel free to say no. Cami and I understand, taking into account the recent events."

The rangers looked at each other and Tommy said, stepping forward. "We would be honored if you chose our children to take the place of their predecessors. We know what being a ranger requires and we completely understand."

Deena said, nervous. "Um, I don't want to sound selfish, but I wouldn't mind not being chosen to be a ranger. Take my brother if you like, but being a ranger is just not for me."

Cami smiled at the young woman. "Thanks for your honesty, Deena. It makes everything so much easier for us."

Elektra set the box down on the console and opened it. Inside lay the four morphers. She picked up one and said. "Cami and I have thought long and hard about who to choose to be our teammates and we have come to a decision for each morpher." She gave the Astro morpher to Cami and Cami said, smiling. "For the Blue Space Ranger, we choose Christian Cranston." Christian went forward and accepted the Astro morpher. "We chose you to be the next Blue Space Ranger because not only are you intelligent, but you're kind hearted, loyal, and a good friend."

Christian replied, smiling. "I won't disappoint either of you."

Elektra nodded, smiling at her new teammate. "We know." She took out the next Astro morpher and said. "For the Yellow Space Ranger, we choose Karen Scott." Karen took the Astro morpher and Elektra said, smiling. "We chose you to be the next Yellow Space Ranger because you're wise, patient, kind, and understanding."

Karen hugged Elektra and said, pulling back. "I won't let you down.' Elektra nodded and Cami took out the next Astro morpher.

Cami said, looking at her cousin. "We choose Walter Taylor to be the Black Astro Ranger." Walter went forward and took the Black Astro Morpher. Cami said, looking at him. "We chose you to be the Black Astro Ranger because of your strong loyalty, compassionate heart, and your outgoing nature, which allows you to think of solutions that haven't been considered."

"Thank you." He took the morpher and stood next to Karen.

Elektra took out the digimorpher and held it for a second before going on. "We choose Teddy Oliver to be the next Silver Ranger." Teddy went forward and accepted the digimorpher. "We chose you to be the Silver Ranger because of your strength as a person and as a Martial artist. You listen when someone needs to talk and you have a compassionate heart."

Teddy took the digimorpher and said, staring straight into Elektra's brown eyes. "I won't let you down."

Elektra smiled as blush colored her cheeks. "I know you won't." Teddy joined his teammates and the former rangers went forward to congratulate the members of the new team.
