Ch. 30 Family Reunion

Months passed slowly for the rangers as Astronama's attacks became much more frequent and the monsters became tougher to beat. Andros and Ashley's relationship grew quickly and Zhane had taken credit for every part of it. They were now all on the Bridge doing system checks and scans.

"Dros," Zhane began, coming up behind his best friend, "these readings are off the charts." He handed Andros the data pad in his hands and his best friend took a good look at it.

"DECA, can you get any specific readings from the planet?" he questioned as he pressed some buttons on the console in front of him.

"Yes," the AI answered and Andros and Zhane could swear there was joy in her voice. "I'm getting what appear to be Power readings, two of them."

"Meaning Bryce and Zarkin," Zhane whispered and Andros nodded. A smile broke out across both of their faces and they all but danced around the room.

"Who are they?" Ashley asked from beside them, racking her brain frantically for the answer.

"Our brothers," Andros answered simply. "And if they're there are little sister, Kilee must be there too."

"Are we sure it's not a trap?" T.J. questioned from the back.

"No," Zhane replied, "that's while we'll go prepared for an attack. If there's not one great but if there is we'll be prepared." Andros only nodded already halfway out the door before anyone else could relax. "Slow down there, brother. If you think you're getting there before I do you're crazy." Andros nodded his head once in obvious compliance to the challenge and they raced to their jump tubes. The others watched them go with a laugh, glad that Andros was allowing himself to have fun again. The others followed the toy playing brothers slowly, giving them plenty of room to race. It wasn't long before they were on the planet's surface, where DECA demorphed them into safety suits. "Thanks, DECA," Zhane stated into his morpher. Andros and Zhane led the way, trying to use their telepathy to locate their siblings but having little luck.

"Looking for these?" Darkonda asked behind them and they turned to see him holding their brothers. Andros took a step forward but stopped when Darkonda shook his head. "Red Ranger, you know what I am capable of. I suggest you back up and do exactly as I say." Andros only obeyed and watched as some of KO-35's best shoulders slowly advanced on Darkonda using the dust clouds as covers. "Now, hand over your morphers." When the rangers hesitated he added, "Now! Or I won't hesitate to kill them right now!" Just as Andros unstrapped his Darkonda growled as he was hit by a beam. His grip loosened on Bryce and Zarkin, giving the two just enough time to rush over to their brother.

"I can't believe you're alive," Zarkin stated, hugging his brothers slightly.

"We'll have more time later," Andros replied, "but for now we have to take care of this problem. You guys stay here, this is our fight." The other rangers nodded but kept a look out for incoming danger. It wasn't long before Darkonda was yet again blown up and the two rangers approached them with goofy smiles on their faces. "Zarkin! Bryce!" Andros jumped at his brothers, who laughed at his enthusiasm. He pulled back just long enough to ask, "Where's Kilee?"

"She's with the other rebels," Zarkin explained. "We started getting energy readings that matched the Megaship so we came out to take a look around and guess who we ran in to. He sure has a way of messing solely with our lives, doesn't he?" Andros only nodded and everyone could see the guilty look in his eyes. "You know I didn't mean it like that. Don't make me have to teach you another lesson." Andros nodded and quickly straightened up, remembering too well the lessons his brother had taught him after Karone's disappearance and all the other traumatic events in his life that he blamed himself for. He would stand at his door and tell really bad jokes or sing until Andros let him in and agreed to go places with them or at least spend time out of his room.

"Let's go then," Zhane stated excitedly, letting his brothers lead the way.

"Andros! Zhane!" Kilee screamed upon spotting her other two brothers. She ran over to them, jumping into Andros' arms and hugging them both. "When did you get here?"

"We started getting Power readings and came down to see if it was really Zarkin and Bryce," Zhane explained. "It's really great to see you." He backed away and looked at his sister. "Since when did you get so big?"

"Silly," Kilee began, "you haven't seen me in over two years did you expect me to stay the same?"

"Of course," Andros answered. "We wanted you to stay that cute little girl forever. Now, you're an all grown up twelve-year-old."

"Hey," she stated, "my birthday's not for a whole nother week so I'm still eleven." Ashley noticed her comment about a birthday but decided to corner Andros about it later, much later if it meant him being happy.

"So, you're a grown up eleven-year-old," he replied. "I wanted you to stay a cute little baby, like right before you learned to say no all the time." His siblings laughed and they went off to play with their little sister.

"Did you hear what she said, Ashley?" Cassie whispered in her friend's ear.

"Yeah," she answered, "but if it means him being happy for a little while, I'll wait to ask him about it."

Meanwhile, Andros and his siblings were playing and interesting game of tag not far from where the rangers were and Andros couldn't keep his attention from going to Ashley. He knew that she had heard Kilee's statement about her birthday and knew that it wouldn't be long before he had to tell them about Karone. He snapped out of his thoughts when someone hit him on the arm.

"You're it!" Kilee yelled, running as fast as she could to get away from him. He quickly joined back in the game and it wasn't long before they were all drinking a nice, cool cup of water. "Do you have to leave again?" she questioned, looking at Andros.

"Yeah," he answered and he saw the hurt in her eyes, "but I have an idea. Why don't you guys come and stay on the Megaship? It's a lot safer now and we're not exactly flying around the universe as much as we use to."

"Can we?" Kilee asked her other brothers. "Please? Please?"

"You know we've never been able to tell you no," Bryce replied as he telekinetically brought over their suitcases.

"You had this planned, didn't you?" Zhane accused and Bryce just winked. Andros sighed as he watched his brothers argue and couldn't help but think that everything was going to be right now that their family was almost all together.
