Dana and Carter - Chapter 8 / Sickness

Dana's POV

We looked around a few more places of interest and we found a clue in a old warehouse, on the floor of a warehouse was John's cap which I hd seen him wearing in some of the pictures at his home so I knew we were on the right path but finding John's cap and no John was a little worrying, we decided to do a sweep of the warehouse, Carter take upstairs, I take downstairs then we met in the middle and we were to call the moment we found anything whether it be big or small.

As I went down the stairs I heard something, I wasn't to sure what it was but I continued down the stairs and seen Loki standing in front of a man he had tied up... John "Carter come in, I found him he's downstairs in the basement with Loki keeping watch on him" I said into the comm system.

"OK I'm on my way, don't do anything until I'm there" He said and moments later Carter was standing next to me. Carter was going to keep Loki busy whilst I went and freed John and take him to safety, Carter managed to get to the other side without being detected and he knocked something over to get Loki's attention and it worked. Loki went off in Carter's direction and I went over to John "I'm from Lightspeed I'm here to take you to safety" I told him and he nodded.

I managed to get him into the car then I morphed knowing there was going to be a fight between Carter and Loki, when I got down the stairs Loki and Carter were fighting and by the looks of it Carter was losing badly so I pulled out by battle blaster and took some shots at Loki which surprised him, Carter took advantage and also took some shots at him then he disappeared.

When we went back up to the car John was sitting there nervously looking around, Carter sat in the back with him in case anything happened and we started our drive towards home.

It took two hours but we made it back to the Aquabase without any incident and John was taken away immediately to go and see my dad, me and Carter were given the rest of the day off and decided to go to the movies to see this new movie that I had wanted to see for ages but Carter didn't because he thought it was to girly, thankfully I changed his mind and an hour after we got back me and Carter were leaving the Aquabase again to go to the movies.

As we drove he had his hand on my knee the entire time and I felt so in love it was un-real I never knew I could love a person as much as I love Carter and I know he feels the same just by the way he looks at me and touches me "What you thinking about?" He asked.

"How much I love you" I answered, he looked over and smiled softly at me before rubbing my knee "I really want to know what John's got that they would want so bad" I said to Carter.

"Yeah I know, e have just risked our lives getting him and I don't know why, it's crazy. Maybe we should ask your dad when we get back to base if he's not busy" Carter suggested.

Halfway through the movie I started to feel sick but I ignored it and the feeling passed but then right near the end of the movie the feeling came back and was stronger then before, I got up from my seat and ran to the bathroom were I threw up the contents of my stomach. When I came out of the bathroom Carter was standing by the door holding my bag and coat "What's the matter?" He asked concerned.

"I don't know, about halfway through the movie I felt sick but it passed and then just now I felt like I was going to puke up my intestines... Can we go please?" I asked and we started heading for home.

When I got to my room it was empty meaning Kelsey was out so Carter said he would come in and look after me until she got back and felt I was in good hands, I got into my pyjamas and climbed into bed. Carter got into the bed beside me and I huddled into him and he put his arms around me in a protective way and kissed the top of my head "Love you" He said lightly to me.

"I love you too" I said back as my eyes closed and I fell into a deep sleep.

Carter's POV

"Carter we need you!" I looked around but no one was in the room and I thought I was dreaming but then I heard the beep of my morpher "Carter!" It was Kelsey calling me "I swear to God Carter if you don't answer soon I'm gonna kick your ass" I looked at Dana and seen she was still asleep.

I managed to untangle myself from here and left the room "Sorry Kels I fell asleep, I'm on my way" I said into the morpher.

When I arrived at the scene Loki, Vypra and lots of Batlings where fighting the other rangers and they were severally out numbered "Where's Dana we could really do with her help!" Joel called out when he seen me.

"She's really sick" I answered as I took on some Batlings.

Loki came at me pushed me and I went flying into the air then landed on the ground hard hurting my back "You made me lose my prisoner!" He shouted and came at me I didn't have time to reach my battle blaster he kicked me and I flew again and landed into a car which had been abandoned "Where is he?" Loki asked.

I stood up and pulled out my battle blaster "Like I'm going to tell you... What do you want from him?" I asked.

"He's got a stone which has so much power it can bring Queen Bansherea back to her normal self, you won't stand a chance then she will eliminate all of you" He told me and lunged at me but this time I was to quick for him and shot him with my battle blaster and it slowed him down, I turned it into baton mode and we started our own little battle.

Loki managed to get a cheap shot in and I fell to the floor and he was about to finish me off when he just disappeared, into thin air. I sat up and seen that Vypra and the Batlings had gone too, I got up and went over to the other rangers who were confused "Why did they leave mid fight?" Chad asked.

"I have no idea but it's nothing good" I stated and we made our way back to the Aquabase and whilst the others went to speak to Captain Mitchell I went to check on Dana and as I entered her room she was in the bathroom crying by the sounds of it. I went into the bathroom and see her sitting by the toilet crying her eyes out "What's the matter?" I asked and rushed over to hug her and pulled her as close to me as possible "Tell what's wrong" I said.

She pulled away from the hug and held up a tampon in it's wrapper unused "I'm late" She simply stated and I sighed, this was not the time for her to be pregnant "Carter I'm scared, what if I'm pregnant? We haven't been together that long" I hugged her and she cried into my shoulder and I thought about all the things that would happen if Dana is pregnant, how could we be this reckless?

"Dana I'm sorry I should have been more careful, I really am sorry" I told her.

She pulled away from my hug again and looked me in the face "It's not just you Carter, it takes two to tango. We both did this I could have been more sensible and prevented myself from this... We don't know for sure yet so lets not apologise for anything just yet" She said and kissed me.

What the hell was I going to tell her dad? He wasn't that happy when we got together in the first place and now she was possible pregnant "Dana we need to find out for sure, the sooner we know the sooner we can sort things out but it needs to be now" I told her.

"Yeah I know, I didn't want to do a pregnancy test here and have people knowing my business so I'm going to my family doctor but I my appointment isn't until tomorrow, will you come with me?" She asked.

"Of course I will go with you" I said and kissed her.

Dana's POV

Me and Carter walked into the doctors surgery and I went over to the reception desk "Hi I'm Dana Mitchell, I have an appointment with Dr Kyle at two" The receptionist nodded and told me to take a seat. I sat next to Carter and he held my hand I could tell he was scared his knee was moving up and down and he was taking long deep breaths "Carter calm down you're making me more nervous" I told him.

He turned and looked at me "Sorry but I just can't stop thinking of what your dad will do to me if you are pregnant then there's Ryan. If you're not pregnant then we need to be more careful and if you are pregnant... Then we'll cross that bridge if we come to it" He said.

"Dana Mitchell?" The doctor called out, me and Carter stood up and went to the doctor's office where wee took a seat "What can I help you with today?" He asked.

"Well I'm late on my period and I've been getting sick, I was wondering if I could take a pregnancy test today just to prove or disprove the pregnancy" I told him.

"OK I'm sure we could do that" He handed me a little pot "The toilets are just out the door and turn left, when you're done bring it back and I'll do the rest" I nodded and left the room. When I came back I handed him the pot, he took it over to the sink and put a stick in the pot and the room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop "Well..." Here it comes...
