Tensou had to double check his findings, but if his machines and analyses were right, there was nothing wrong with the Rangers. He rolled over to them while he shook his head. He gave his papers to Troy.

"Everything appears normal," he said. "Your vitals are normal, I can't see anything wrong with you, I don't know what Gia's freaking out over."

"She's not normally one to make stuff up," Emma muttered. "If she says there's something weird going on, something weird is going on."

"But she's the only one who thinks so," Jake said. Troy shook his head.

"She's not the only one," he pointed to Ryan, who was bouncing happily on Rebecca's lap. "Ryan's acting up too."

"Maybe Gia just upset her," Rebecca suggested. "We know what Ryan's like, and we know she likes Gia. If Gia's freaking out, Ryan might have just been going along with it."

"I think it's more than that," Troy stated. "Ryan hasn't even looked at me since her nap. Watch. Ryan, over here. Look at me! Look at big brother."

Ryan looked around the room when she heard Troy's voice but never seemed to focus on him. Troy sighed loudly. Rebecca continued to play with the little girl.

"Something's up, then," Noah stated. Rebecca raised an eyebrow.

"With Gia and Ryan?"

"I'd prefer to run my tests on Gia," Tensou told the Rangers. He looked nervously to Ryan, "I wouldn't be able to get much more than a vital test done on a baby. She can't tell me how she's feeling."

Tensou then turned to Rebecca with a little sigh, "Sorry, but depending on how long this takes to figure out, you might have to wait another day or so for the opera..."

"I don't want it," Rebecca said. She didn't need to see to know her friends all turned to her in shock. She shrugged her shoulders. "This echolocation thing is kind of cool. I might get bored of it someday, but I'd like to really understand how to use it. No offence, Tensou, but what if the operation doesn't work, or I go blind again or something?"

"You mean, you don't want to see?" Noah asked. Rebecca shook her head.

"I can see what's important," she nodded. "My footsteps make enough noise for me to see where I'm going. When we talk, that's enough for me to pinpoint where you guys are. Master Swoop said I still have a lot to learn. This could be a pretty sweet advantage for us."

"No more having to worry about the dark," Jake smirked. His teammates turned to him. He shrugged, "What? We're in the middle of a war, and we all know before it's over we're going to hit that do or die fight. What if the Armada or someone attacks a power plant or turns the day to night or something."

"It won't affect me if the world is dark," Rebecca said. "I don't need light to find my way. And besides, I don't want to rely on sight to get through my life. I mean, Noah, you know how much it sucks when you lose your glasses."

"Echolocation would be pretty cool when that happens," Noah nodded his head. "But are you sure this is what you want? Blindness?"

"I want to give it a shot," she nodded. "I want to see how far I can go and exactly what I can do on my own. Gia's right. If I do decide to get my sight back, I want it to be because I feel it's a better decision and not because I think I can't handle it."

"Alright, well, I'm always willing to do the operation in the future," Tensou told her. "I guess I'll just hold off my studies until you think you might want your sight back."

"Thanks, Tensou," Rebecca smiled. She turned to her brother and Noah, "I hope that's okay?"

They looked to each other and both let out a sigh, but when they turned to Rebecca they were all smiles. They nodded their heads, "We're behind you completely. Whatever you want, we'll do what we can to help."

"Thanks," Rebecca said.

"Guys, there's still the matter of getting Gia in for testing," Orion stated. "Tensou's confirmed there's nothing wrong with us so if we're going to figure out what caused her to freak out, we've got to get her back."

"Did anything happen while you were gone?" Emma asked Rebecca. The younger girl shook her head.

"We made it to JKP and back without problems. Master Swoop did kind of hurt her during my training, though."

"Hurt her how?"

"Gia said he was just pinching her and stuff whenever I messed up. Just to make her groan or cry out or something to get me worked up. Gia swore he didn't really do anything serious."

"You're sure it was nothing?"

"Well, she did call for milk. But after she was fine and everything," Rebecca nodded. "I mean, she didn't seem to have any problems with Master Swoop. She said on the walk home she'd like to go back to JKP after the war. I mean, unless she's got more bruises I can't see..."

"She seemed fine to me," Emma said. "Besides, Master Swoop, Casey and RJ were all Rangers. We trust them, right?"

"But nothing's wrong with us," Noah pointed out. "Tensou's tests confirm it. We're all normal. Gia's the one freaking out about all this. She's behaving weirdly. We've got to get her back on the ship and..."

"Good luck with that," Jake muttered. "She used milk, and whatever's going on, she didn't think it stopped. Unless she's feeling better, we can't just walk up to her..."

"Maybe you guys can't, but whatever's going on, it's not affecting me," Rebecca said. "Well, whatever's going on with Gia is just with you guys. She seemed to be fine with me. I can go talk to her."

"Alone?" Troy asked.

"I'm going to have to," Rebecca said. "If she doesn't trust you, it's going to be hard to get her to come back."

"I don't like this," Troy shook his head. "You being blind and Vrak and Vekar still out there..."

"I'll be fine," Rebecca promised. "I can find my way around the city alright. I trust my dolphin spirit. Besides, I'll have my communicator and I'll be looking for Gia. She won't let anything happen to me."

"We just defeated Vekar's latest monster," Jake said. "It might be a day before he tries something else. You know how he likes to lick his wounds."

"And Vrak and Cliff are more likely to go after Gia than Rebecca if they're alone," Orion pointed out. "This might be our best chance."

"Alright, alright," Troy sighed loudly. "Just be safe, alright?"

"Can do," Rebecca nodded her head. She held out Ryan to pass her over to her brother. As Troy grabbed the young girl and Rebecca let go, Ryan started to cry and seemed to be bracing herself for a fall. As soon as she let out a howling scream, Rebecca took her back.

"Um... that's really weird," she said as she tried to sooth her sister.

Tensou rolled over and took the little girl in his arms, "Maybe I will run a few tests on her. A vital test and some brain scans, just to make sure everything's okay."

Rebecca nodded her head and trusting her sister was in safe hands, she turned to leave. Ryan, seeing her go, started to scream again and tried to get out of Tensou's arms. She had been left in the little robot's care before, but usually only when the Rangers were all training together and during nap times. Most of the time, she had either Troy or Rebecca watching her, or one of the other Rangers. So when one of them walked off, Ryan never screamed like this.

Tensou set her down and Ryan cried out loudly as she ran to Rebecca. She wrapped her arms tightly around her sister's legs and screamed, begging Rebecca didn't leave. Troy walked over to pick her up and comfort her, but Ryan only seemed to get more worked up.

"Okay, this is really weird," Rebecca held Ryan once more and walked her over to Tensou's examination table. She sat down with the little girl. "She's never been this attached to me before. Ry, what's going on?"

Ryan buried her face in Rebecca's chest and clung to her as if for dear life. Rebecca wrapped her arms around her and kissed the top of her head.

"Tensou, can I hold her while you do the scans?" she asked.

"We might have no choice," Tensou answered.

"Then who's going after Gia?" Jake frowned.

"I'll go once Tensou's done and Ryan's calm," Rebecca said. "Sorry, but I can't leave her like this. Something's up and I can't just walk out on her."

Emma nodded her head and then lightly tapped Jake's arm, "I think we've got to do the same."

"With Ryan?"

"Gia."

"Gia flipped out on us," Jake said. "You heard the milk and we couldn't stop whatever it was that was freaking her out."

"I know," Emma nodded her head, "But that doesn't mean we just let her go."

"Em..."

"If something is wrong, I don't want her wandering around the city alone," Emma told him. "We know we're not going to hurt her. If we keep our distance, maybe we can keep an eye on her without completely losing her trust. Wouldn't you rather she flip out in our hands than fall into one of Vrak or Vekar's traps?"

"I'll join you guys when I can," Rebecca said. Jake sighed and then nodded his head. With Emma, they teleported down to the city to start looking around for Gia.
