Chapter Nineteen-The New Beginning Of An Answer To All Of The Problems Already Solved

Ann was sitting in her hospital bed, exausted.

But it was worth it.

The end result of the endless hours of pain was definitely worth it.

If only a few special people could be here to witness it.

"Hey Ann." A voice said suddenly from the doorway. "Look what I have."

Ted walked into the room, holding a bundle of pink blankets in front of him. He was smiling down at them. In the blink of an eye, he was beside Ann's bed.

"Here you go." He held the blankets out to her.

Ann took the bundle in her arms, and smiled down at the little girl sleeping within them.

"Look at her Ted, she's beautiful."

"I know."

Ann sighed softly as she gazed at their newborn daughter.

"I just wish her grandparents could be here to see her. I bet dad's driving."

Ted nodded in aggreeance. "Not only is he late, he's probably lost as well."

"Hello!" A new voice said brightly from the doorway. "The family is here, bearing gifts for...well...who are these for?"

"You'll never change David." Ted said shaking his head. "So, where's everyone else?"

"Mom and Dad are currently arguing over the easiest way to get here, while Jason and Willie are trying to kill each other in the car, and Zachary is sitting there muttering to himself about how his brothers are crazy. As for your parents, they're picking Teresa up from school. Seeing as Aunt Tanya works here, I'm sure they'll be here in no time."

And just as he finished speaking, the Park family appeared in the doorway.

"Hey mom, dad." Ted said. He turned to his ten-year old sister. "Come here, Teresa."

Practically sprinting, Teresa was at her brother's side in an instant. He picked her up and sat her on the bed next to his wife and daughter.

"Look."

Teresa sighed as she gazed down at the face of her little neice. She looked up at Ann, whom she had come to refer to as her sister.

"What's her name?" Teresa asked softly.

Ann glanced at Ted. "Ada."

"She's beautiful." Teresa breathed.

"Want to hold her?" Ann offered. Teresa gladly accepted.

Tanya sighed as she leaned against her husband, just inside the door to the room.

"Tommy doesn't know what he's missing." Tanya said. David smiled as he heard this.

"That's dad for you." David said. "Doesn't understand the importance of being on time."

"I heard that." Tommy's voice said from the doorway. "It's not my fault your brother's started World War III in the back of the jeep."

Kim appeared at his shoulder. "I also suppose it's not your fault that you were reading the map upside down. Honestly, how could you not know where the hospital is?"

Tommy chose to ignore this question. A grin lit up Ann's face as she looked up to see her parents standing there. Both of them grinned back as her younger brothers walked into the room.

"So, what's her name?" Tommy asked.

"See, this is what I mean." David said, cutting Ann off. "You miss important things if you show up late."

Ann rolled her eyes at her twin. "Her name, is Ada Lynn Park."

At that moment, a faint reddish light seemed to emanate from the baby still in Teresa's arms. When it was gone, a birthmark had appeared on Ada's shoulder. It was in the shape of a pair of wings.

"What was that?" Willie questioned as Tommy groaned.

"Why does this always happen to me?" Tommy asked no one in particular.

"What happened to you?" Jason asked. "You weren't the one glowing. Speaking of glowing, why was the baby glowing?"

Tanya glanced at Tommy, Kim, and Adam all standing beside her. "It was Ada's heritage.

Everyone else in the room all gave her blank looks.

"She has inherited her family legacy." Tanya elaborated. "The legacy of the power rangers."

"This always happens to me." Tommy muttered. Ann shook her head sadly at her father.

"Look at it this way, dad." Ann offered. "It's your granddaughter who's going to be wearing the spandex, not you, again."

"Finally." Kim and Tanya said together.

Willie turned to Zachary at that moment. "Know what?"

"What?" Zachary asked wearily, to him, this sounded like World War IV was brewing.

"I'm glad we were never rangers. Probably means we never will be." Willie said. "Which means, that we never have to grow old hoping and praying the we never have to get back in uniform again."

"Hey!" Tommy protested. "I'm not old!"

"Just keep telling your self that, dad." Willie said. "Your the one with a grandkid, not me, remember?"

Tommy looked at the baby again. "I remember."

Ann leaned back against her pillows contentedly. Her whole family, they were all here. It didn't matter that one day she would have to send her children through time to help defeat the former evil empress. It didn't matter that one of them would be four-years old at the time. What mattered is that for the time being, they were all a happy family, and that wasn't going to change. No matter how much time travel was involved.

The next day, Ann was able to leave the hospital and take baby Ada with her. As Ted parked the car in front of their small house, Ann looked out the window to see the familiar face of their next door neighbor on his front lawn, playing with his two-year old son.

"Hey Justin!" Ann called as she got out of the car.

"Oh, hey Ann." Justin replied. "How's the baby?"

"She's great." Ann said. "Do you and Sam want to come meet her?"

Justin stood up, and he and Sam walked over to the car, where Ted was attmepting to firgure out how to take the babyseat out. When it was finally out, Ted set it on the ground so Sam could see Ada.

"Baby, daddy." Sam said, pointing at Ada, while looking at his father.

"I know." Justin replied. He turned to Ann and Ted. "She's beautiful. Who knows, maybe one day, her and Sam will friends."

Ann bit a smile back. "Yeah. Maybe they'll even save the world together."
