Chapter 44: Cadets learn from the Past
"Commander, what exactly did happen the last time Magnificent tried for power?"
"Well, the last time he tried New Tech City was almost destroyed. During just one of the fights Magnificent killed a third of New Tech City's population. At another battle the city lost 12 firefighters and that is when Syd's dad left SPD plus he did not want Syd attacked. That same battle I am sorry to say was the day that we lost Z's dad and Jack's mom. That was the same day Grumm attacked my home planet of Sirius, and I hung up Shadow Ranger I thought permanently. The battles went on and on. Z, unfortunately a week after you and Jack lost one parent, you lost the other. We tried to make it so you could both be at the Academy, but when Birdie's processor died, Birdie said no, and two days before we were going to give you both to a woman that would have loved to have you both, you two managed to leave the academy. The day you and Jack found each other was actually the same day that we found Jack again, since I had already found you in the shadows. Then everything was quiet until…"
"Mirloc"
Syd saw Sky's face drop and she leaned her head on Sky's shoulder and also put her hand in his.
"Yes, Sky, the day you lost your dad."
Sydney felt Sky squeeze her hand, so she squeezed it back.
"After Mirloc was taken into custody, it seemed as though Magnificent just disappeared. No one really knew what happened to him until now."
"Sir, I think that we are going to have to know where Grumm is being kept or at least his containment card is so we can help prevent anyone from breaking Grumm out."
"I cannot answer that for you , but I wouldn't think that he is anywhere near here. I don't even know where his containment card is."
"Well, who would?"
"Supreme Commander Birdie, for all I know he is in his containment card and stuffed into a safe somewhere. Rangers go ahead and take rest again because magnificent will be harder to battle than Grumm, and who knows when you will all sleep come again. You are dismissed."
After the rangers left, Kat chimed in.
"Doggie, If Grumm did come back, you do not think that he would try for Morgana or Mora do you?"
"Yes, Kat I do. They are both good at evil plans, but the monsters are Mora."
All four rangers were sitting in their common room just relaxing and lazing around.
"Z?"
"Yeah?"
"Do you remember your parents?"
"Only a little bit"
"What were they like?"
"My mom's name was Alyssa and she was really pretty, and my dad's name was Cole and he athletic and was generous as was my mom. They both had a lot of hardships. They both loved animals. They were also so much in love and told me I was a miracle for them. I don't remember much more than that. Why did you want to know Syd?"
"I guess after knowing how your parents died, I guess I wanted to know how much you remember about them after they died."
"Syd, one night about ten nights ago, right before you and bridge got sick, I looked over and you weren't there, I think it was the night of your uncle's ball, where were you or where did you go?"
"I couldn't sleep so I went for a walk around the base."
"Syd, does Doggie know or I hate to say or even think that you stole the files"
"Relax and yeah, Z, he does because he saw me when he was coming to shut down the computers. I knew he could have also probably told me but I wanted to look up something to answer some questions that I had."
"Like what, Syd?"
"Like with other times that rumbits were around and if it was at all possible if I could have seen them before or seen them with Cruger and my parents."
"Did you find anything?"
"Yeah, apparently it was long before when I was still a baby, I was only twenty months old. At the time when I saw them I was with my parents and Cruger, and I was half way between my dad and the Commander when I was suddenly grabbed by a rumbit. I hit him with a rock fist because he then dropped me. My mother picked me up and gave me to the Commander who gave me to my grandfather who had just gotten there. They chose not to erase my memory because I was learning things and they did not want me to forget what I had learned and they never thought that I would remember that. "
When Syd finished, they noticed that most of the lights in the city were still out, and as long as there was no attacks everything would be okay. It was only too bad that they had not looked at the sky before going to bed for the night.
A/N: Whoa, I hope that you are still enjoying the story. I am working as fast as I can to get chapters up, but I am getting to the ones that I am editing and reading over again, plus I am also trying to write them.
