Dana and Carter - Chapter 2 / Saved
Dana's POV
I opened my eyes and tried to sit up but my arms and legs were tied up, I was laying on a table and I noticed I didn't have my morpher on so I couldn't even try and contact the others. I have no idea what happened to me the last think I remember is chasing the Batling and the little girl and then it all goes blank. Was the little girl OK? Did the other rangers get to her in time? Do they know where I am? "You're finally awake pink ranger!" I followed the voice and seen Vypra standing to my right with her arms crossed over her chest looking at me and smirking "One ranger down, four to go" she laughed evilly.
"You won't get away with this you know... They will destroy your monster like we always do. They will find me and they will kick your butt too!" I stated to her.
"Yeah right! You don't even have your morpher so you can't do anything" she leaned over me and stared at me for a few moments before she started undoing my ties "I'm bored so I'm going to fight you" she undid the last tie and threw he sword on the ground "I will fight you fairly but I'll make you a deal if you win the battle you can leave but if I win you have to stay here forever" was this a bet I was willing to take? She had better odds against me at the minute...
"Fine!" We got into our positions and we lunged at each other for the attack.
Carter's POV
I laid in my bed and thought about Dana. She should have listened to me when I called her and I know she did hear me, I would have went with her then none of this would have happened! I can't just sit here and do nothing "Joel come on... We're going to find Dana" I said to Joel who was sitting on his bed reading fan letter or something.
Joel got the rest of the team while I went to Ms Fairweather and told her what we were going to do "Carter your looking for a needle in a haystack, you don't know where to start looking" she stated to me.
"I'm gonna get Joel to search from the sky, I'm going to go out with Chad and Kelsey and look around the area where Dana's morpher was found, I can't just sit around and do nothing. If you get anything let us know" I said and she nodded. I ran to transport where the others were already in the jeep sitting and waiting for me, I jumped in the drivers seat and we drove off.
We got to where Dana's morpher was found and had a look around for anything but none of us could see anything that would help us find Dana "Joel can you see anything from up there?" I asked through the morpher.
"I think I might have something here! There's a cave thats got Batlings in front of it guarding it, I don't know if Dana is in there but they are defiantly something in there they want to protect" he answered "The cave is about ten miles west of where you are right now. I'll land and wait for you guys OK?" He said.
Dana's POV
I was really injured she was winning the fight I was still weak from being out cold for however long but I couldn't give up just yet. I had to keep fighting until the others found me and kicked her ass and the demons ass too "Give it up ranger you've lost this battle" Vypra stated and lunged at me again and then I was starting to go lightheaded and knew I wasn't going to last much longer in this tight. She lunged at me and I kicked her away but she pushed me and I fell to the floor and she leaned over me and kicked my in my side and I flipped over so I was laying on my front struggling to get up, I heard footsteps and then shouting but I was out of it and everything was going black around me once again.
Carter's POV
We met up with Joel and went to the cave where there was Batlings and we didn't take any chances so we took out our battle blasters aimed at them and we took a few of them out and then we fought the rest and then went into the cave, we found Dana she was on her own tied to a table and injured. Batlings came and surrounded us "Guys you take care of the Batlings I'm going to get Dana and take her back to the Aqua Base" I told them.
I got Dana and untied her she was out cold, I carried her to the jeep and made sure she was secure before driving off to the Aqua Base where I called in to say that I had her and made sure there was a medic team standing by waiting for her because she was really hurt and unconscious.
When I got to the Aqua Base a team of medics grabbed Dana and rushed her off towards the medical bay and I instantly followed behind them but they wouldn't let me in whilst they were examining her so I had to just stand outside with Captain Mitchell "What happened?" He asked.
"I don't know, we found her and she was tied to table and she was really injured, she was covered in bruises and had blood splats on her" I explained to him and he nodded and looked through the window at Dana but they pulled the curtain around her so we couldn't see what they were doing.
When they finally let me in I rushed to her side and seen her looking like a fragile doll, she was pale and covered in tubes. She looked like she was just having a peaceful sleep but part of me told me that she wasn't at peace in her sleep. I stroked her hair out of her face and held her hand and just stared at her "The doctor told me that talking to you might help so I'm going to give it a go... I don't really know what to talk about to be honest with you so I decided to read you a chapter from your favourite book 'Lorna Doone: A Romance of Exmoor': If anybody cares to read a simple tale told simply, I, John Ridd, of the Parish of Oare..." I started.
I finished the chapter of the book and put it down on the table beside her bed then I just looked at her expecting her to be awake and tell me to stop being so silly for worrying this much but she was still in that peaceful slumber that I was beginning to think she was never going to come out of. Truth is I worry about her more then I worry about anyone else, my feelings for her are stronger then they have ever been for anyone, she can make my knees melt just by looking at me the right way and she doesn't even know it. I grabbed her hand and felt how soft and slender it was in my big rough hand she had just got her nails done this morning and now they were covered in dirt and one had fallen off.
The door knocked and I pulled my hand away and Kelsey, Joel and Chad walked in looking over at Dana with sad eyes "Has there been any change?" Chad asked and I shook my head in response.
I felt a hand on my shoulder and seen Joel standing behind me "She'll pull through, it's Dana, she's a strong girl she'll be OK" I knew he was trying to make me feel better but I didn't have much hope at the moment "Why don't I go find a doctor..." I just nodded and heard a couple of different feet walk away but when I turned around I seen Kelsey still standing there looking at her crying.
I got up from my chair and hugged her, she hugged me back and cried into my shoulder "She's going to be OK isn't she Carter?" She whimpered.
"I hope so Kels... I really hope so. There are so many things that I have to tell her and I hope I get the chance" I told her and we pulled away from our hug and looked over at Dana "I need to go to the bathroom... Can you stay with her?" She nodded and I left the room.
When I got back from the bathroom I seen Captain Mitchell and Ryan sitting at her bedside holding her hand and crying "Ryan your back" I stated.
Ryan turned around and got up off his chair "Thanks for saving her life, me and my dad don't know how we can thank you for everything that you have done" I shook his hand.
"You don't have to thank me for anything, it's Dana, I wasn't going to leave her there was I?" I questioned and he shrugged in response "Is she doing any better?" I asked.
"Yeah the doctor thinks that she might wake up in a couple hours" he explained.
"That's good... I'm going to go and find the others" I stated and turned to leave.
"Carter wait... Me and Ryan will leave you alone with her for a little while" Captain Mitchell got up from his seat and he left with Ryan.
I sat down in the seat Captain Mitchell had previously occupied and held Dana's hand again "Dana I really need you to wake up, there are some things I need to tell you and I will not live with myself if I never got the chance to tell you..." I sighed and looked at her.
