Author's Note: So sorry that it's taken me so incredibly long to update. First it took me forever to figure out how to write any of my next chapters, then I started re-reading the Harry Potter series so that I could read through Half Blood Prince before I went to the Midnight showing, which the movie was absolutely amazing! Anyways, here's the next chapter and I hope that it won't take as long to get the next chapter up.

Chapter 4-A Moment in Time

Syd was sitting down next to her Father. This was horrible. Her Mother and Bridge were missing. Sky was still out, he apparently had gotten quite a bit into his system, everyone in that room had. Her Father felt horrible. He had gotten up to take care of a call from a business associate, and that was why he had been in his office.

"It's okay Daddy, don't worry. I'll find them."

Her Father nodded absently still staring. He was upset, just like she was. She looked around and watched as Z walked up to her, "They're still out." Z looked from Syd's father and back to Syd.

"I'll be back Daddy."

"Of course. Go take care of business."

Syd walked a little bit from everyone before Z spoke, "Did you ask your Dad yet?"

"Not yet, I was going to, but…"
"Come on Syd."

"I know." Syd reluctantly went back to her Father, "Daddy, did you have any enemies?"

He looked at her, "You think one of them did this to me, to your Mother?"

"Daddy please, it could help us in the search."

"I'll have to go through some of my records first."

"Alright, but we're going to need to know as soon as possible."

"Right. Of course."

Syd smiled at her Father and walked back to Z, "He's going to go through his things. Are any of them waking?"

Z nodded, "I think Sky is. He seems like he's coming out of a deep sleep."

Syd looked up at Z who had her worried eyes trained on Sky. Smiling she knew that if they did not get together than she and Bridge would do everything in their power to get the two of them together.

Bridge.

Bridge was gone.

Half hour later

Sky slowly opened his eyes. It took him a second to remember exactly what had been going on. Then he remembered. Everything was going…well not fine when the room filled with smoke. He had caught Bridge's eye for just a moment before he could barely see. He quickly reached back for his morpher but before he could grab it he had started blacking out.

As soon as he started to sit up he felt a firm hand on his shoulder, "Hang on, not so fast."

He opened his eyes and saw Z right next to him with a slight smile on her face, "Z?"

"Since you're that confused I should really go and—"

Sky rolled his eyes and sat up ignoring Z's hand that had still been on his shoulder, "I'm not confused. I can see that you're Z, but…" He looked around, "What happened." He looked around and saw that he was lying on a medical bed in what must have been Syd's house.

"Someone caused all of us to black out. Syd and I didn't get it to bad because we weren't in this room. Jack and Ally only just woke up."

"That's good. What about Bridge?"

Z looked off toward another room and then back at Sky, "Syd's mother is missing."

"Well then we'll have to start a search party. I think—"

"Don't worry about that—"

"I am perfectly capable of continuing. We need to talk to Mr. Drew and see—"

"Sky don't worry we alre—"

Sky gave Z an annoyed look, "It's in the rulebook, and I know how to run this kind of an operation. What?"

"Stop interrupting me alright?" Sky raised an eyebrow at her but let her finish, "Good. Now listen Doggie already sent some back up in and Syd has already talked to her Dad, the thing is…Sky they took Bridge."

Sky felt his insides harden. Who had done this? Why had they taken Bridge? What had been the reason? Sky started standing up, "Sky, I think you should wait for a coupled of minutes before you get up and go and do something. Look Syd is getting a list of the enemies her dad has and then we'll go through that alright?"

"Fine." He let it out in a growl.

"Sky I don't know why you're so upset, just because Syd and I started checking things out…" Sky looked over at Z as she trailed off, "No, you're just frustrated because you were knocked out and one of your best friends was kidnapped."

The Red Ranger slowly sat up and this time Z allowed him, "Is anyone else hurt or injured?"

"No, and that's the odd thing, they grabbed Mrs. Drew and Bridge and that's it. So far they can't find anything that was stolen, no money gone. No ransom note. Nothing at all. It just doesn't make any sense."

Sky pursed his lips and thought for a few minutes, "Unless…unless as they were attacking they were surprised to find us here? Maybe they only wanted Mrs. Drew."

"Then why take Bridge, you guys were all there, everyone was knocked out."

"I think we need to question everyone regardless."

"Good point."

"How's Syd taking it?"

"How do you think she is?" Z gave him an incredulous look. "She's scared, upset, and she wants both of them back."

"We're going to have to make sure she doesn't do anything rash."

"I know." He began to move off to stand up and Z gave him a look, "What?"

"Are you sure that's wise?"

"I'm fine alright."

He moved her hand away and stood up. As he did he felt his head swim and found himself loosing his footing. He felt Z's hands, one on his back and the other on his arm, pull him back down, "Sky are you alright?"

Shaking his head he closed his eyes for a few minutes before opening them and looking up, "Yeah, what was that?"

"Whatever it is that they knocked us out with, it's reacted differently to people's systems. Kat's not sure why. She just knows people's reactions. Some have been sick, others…are still out."

Nodding Sky decided it was best to remain seated for a while, "Alright, well then I'll stay here for a bit longer."

"Do you want me to get anyone?"

Sky looked over at Z and the two's eyes connected. For a minute Z was the only other person there and then at the same time the two looked away. It was ridiculous. Sky knew the whole idea…he had a job to do and he couldn't afford anything to stop it. Squaring his shoulders he looked straight ahead, "Well I guess I'll wait here for a bit."

"Yeah, guess you will."

He looked at her, "What?"

"Well, seeing as I can walk just fine, I think I'll go check on Jack and Ally again, and then finish helping Syd."

Z stood up and left the room. Sky raised an eyebrow at her reaction; he wondered what that was about?
