Jake and Noah had taken their parents to their bedroom to talk privately. There was a lot to catch up on even though Gia had covered most of the basic. There were many apologies, lots of hugs and a whole lot of questions for the boys, but eventually, everyone settled down. However, there was one problem that was difficult to ignore. Mr. Carver shifted uncomfortably on the bed as he tried to figure out how to look his invisible son in the eyes.

"So, the latest monster..."

"Stuff like this happens on the time," Jake assured him. "Really, invisibility is the easiest thing we've have to deal with."

"It is?" his father asked. Jake chuckled.

"Vekar turned us into old men once. I am not excited for old age."

"Old men?"

"I was a shark once," Noah said. He sat the fearful look from his parents and laughed. "It's fine. Everyone got me back to normal before anything bad happened."

"I was a snake for a little while too," Jake said. "Granted, I was going to be used for evil, but that's not the point."

"Okay... this is all a little..."

"Freaky," Mrs. Carver stated. "I don't think we're going to like hearing these stories."

"There's a lot to tell you, mom," Noah said with a smile, despite the fact that his mother couldn't see it. "So far, it's ended with us winning, and we plan on keeping that streak going throughout the entire war."

"How long is this going to last?" his father asked. Noah shrugged.

"We're not sure. Every team's a little different. The Samurai Rangers before us had two years, other teams have had more, some were just Rangers for about a year. It really depends on when Vekar and Vrak decided to try the do or die approach."

"In the meantime, you can't just... force their hand or use one of those big robot thingies and step on their monsters or..."

"Our Powers are a lot more complicated than that," Noah explained. "The Zords require a lot of energy, and the Megazord takes even more. If we were to summon it to squash a regular sized monster and then fight him again when he's huge, if the Armada were to send down another monster even a day later, we wouldn't have enough power to hold him off for long."

"Really? But you're the Power Rangers."

"Powers have their limits. Nothing's infinite."

"Noah's got all this complicated stuff figured out," Jake said. "I kind of just do what I'm told."

"Most of the time," Noah smirked.

Their parents looked not at them, but it was close enough given they were invisible. Jake's father spoke up again.

"So Jake, it looks like you've made dating work out through all of this. Unless you and Gia..."

"Going strong. Well, right now's not a good time but... that's complicated too," Jake said. "But she and I are still good."

"So you've made it work?"

"I'm working hard. So is she. Being Rangers is kind of a hindrance and a help. Sometimes it pushes us closer together and other times, we've really got to fight hard for what we've got."

"I'm really happy to hear that," Mr. Holling smiled. Jake was happy too, but he was quick to take the attention away from himself. Everyone knew one day he would find a girl and settled down. It wasn't really news that he and Gia were still together. The real big news was how Noah had grown. Jake put his arm around his best friend and smirked.

"But Noah's got some exciting news, don't you, Noah?"

"I do?"

"You do?" his parents were suddenly very interested. They could hear from Jake's tone that the news was good.

"Tell them, Noah. Tell them how there's a certain girl you've got your eye on."

"What? I don't... oh, you mean..." Noah started to blush a deep shade of red as he turned to his parents. "Um... well... there is..."

"A girl!" his mother cried out excitedly. "You've got a crush? On a girl!"

"Mom..."

"Who is she? Where did you meet? Does she know? Have you asked her out?"

"Mom..."

"Anna, settle down," Mr. Caver took his wife's hands. "You're going to terrify the poor boy."

"He's not terrified," Mrs. Carver shook her head. "Oh, Noah, I'm so happy for you! You've got to tell me who she is. I can't wait to meet her!"

"Actually, you already have," Noah said. His mother looked curious.

"I have? Who? It's not Emma, is it?"

"No, she's engaged to Jordan and... wait, what's wrong with Emma?" Noah frowned. His mother shook her head.

"Nothing, I just... it's hard to get past the whole her trying to take over the world thing."

"Um, Mrs. Carver, we told you how Vekar brainwashed her," Jake said.

"No, no, I know. I just... Oh, just tell me, who is she? Who's the lucky girl?"

"It's... well, it's Rebecca."

"Rebecca?" Mr. Holling frowned while Mrs. Carver squealed excitedly. "Wait, Carl's girl? Jake, your step-sister?"

"The one and only," Jake nodded and gently nudged Noah again. "They've been dating for a few months now. It's getting pretty serious."

"And I've missed it!" Mrs. Carver cried out. "Noah, you have to tell me all about it! Actually, get her in here."

"Mom, I don't think she wants to..."

"I barely know her," Mrs. Carver said. "And she's the first girl my little boy's had a crush on. Please, Noah. I'll try not to embarrass you."

"It's too late for that," Noah muttered as he got up and walked to the door. Rebecca was sitting outside playing with Ryan and Tiger, but left them to their game when Noah called her over. She walked in and before she knew what had happened, Mrs. Carver hugged her.

"What did I do?" she asked over her shoulder to Noah. The blue Ranger lowered his head and sighed.

"Mom, you can't just... can you let her go please?"

"I'm so happy to hear you're dating my little boy!" Mrs. Carver said. Noah groaned.

"Mom!"

"Am I meeting the parents?" Rebecca frowned. She turned to Noah, "Hold up, this isn't fair! You can't just spring this on me!"

"She insisted," Noah shrugged his shoulders. "My mom's not to be argued with."

"I'm just so excited," his mother said. Mr. Carver walked over to pull her away from Rebecca.

"Why don't we just talk about this?" he asked. He sat down with his wife and then looked to Rebecca. It was only then he noticed there was something strange about her eyes. He frowned and now was no longer sure how to talk to her. Noah quickly noticed the way his father, then his mother, and then Mr. Holling clamped up when they looked at Rebecca and took it upon himself to explain.

"A recent attack left her blind," he stated and put his arm around her. "It's... that's kind of why we didn't want you guys getting involved. It's dangerous."

"Rebecca..."

"I'm okay," Rebecca smiled. "I'm being optimistic. Plus, Master Swoop kind of helped me unleash my dolphin senses, so I'm learning how to manage it."

"Your dolphin senses?" Mr. Carver asked. Noah rolled his eyes.

"I really wish this happened under different circumstances."

"I'm having a blast," Jake smirked. "Hey, Rebecca, why don't you tell Mr. and Mrs. Carver all about how you and Noah first started going out."

"Oh, that's a funny story!" Rebecca smiled and Mrs. Carver seemed to grow excited again as well. Noah turned to Jake.

"I hate you."

"I don't care," Jake laughed and then listened as Rebecca told Noah's mother all about how nervous and shy Noah felt about asking her out, and Mrs. Carver's responses was always to smile, touch her heart, and then make some comment that would embarrass Noah.
