Moms & Bombs!
Tommy and Ethan moved slowly through the quiet houses. They observed the dark and light houses. They looked at the cars and the doors. Ethan was looking around the different houses when he spotted something out of place.
'Tommy,' he said and the former black ranger turned to look at him.
'What?' he asked.
'Isn't that Jack's car?' Ethan asked.
'Jack?' Tommy asked confused.
'The guy that owns the shop we passed,' Ethan said and Tommy stopped the car.
'You think Trent took the car?' Tommy asked and received a nod from Ethan.
'Park back there so we can check it out,' Ethan said while pointing to a road behind them. As they parked Tommy took his phone and opened the door. The two men moved slowly toward the light but dull house. Ethan tip-toed toward the house and saw small drips of blood going in toward the house. 'I definitely think this is the house,' Ethan said and received a punch from Tommy.
'Be quiet!' Tommy whispered in a harsh tone.
'Oh yh...' Ethan said and Tommy rolled his eyes.
'Let's go around the back,' Tommy whispered and they made their way toward a small wooden door. They entered the garden of the house and could see a light on. Ethan and Tommy stayed on the wall and saw Trent washing his hands. The young man looked horrible. His eyes were bloodshot, his hair was in a mess, his face had wrinkles and parts of his skin was turning green.
'He looks awful,' Ethan whispered. Tommy nodded and took his phone. He took a picture of Trent and sent it to Connor. He put his phone back and looked at Ethan.
'Let's go back. We'll sleep in the motel near here and check the house out in the morning. Trent will have to go out and when he does – we make our move,' he said and Ethan nodded. The two walked slowly back towards the car not knowing the busy day they were going to have in a couple of hours.
Kim woke up at around 6am and immediately got up from the floor. She looked up and saw Ryan sleeping fast asleep and kissed his forehead. She put the cover on him properly and walked out of the room. She walked slowly down the stairs careful not to make any noise. She walked into the living room and cleaned up some of the mess in the living room. Then she walked into the kitchen to make some food. She looked into the fridge and saw some eggs, bacon and sausages and some bread from the counter. She quickly put the cooker on and took a frying pan from the cupboard below the sink. She put the fryer on and put the bread into the toaster. Kim was lost in her cooking and had no idea of the trouble her husband was going to get in.
Kira woke up in the morning and smelled bacon and toast. As she turned she met deep brown eyes. As she stared into them a smile came to her face.
'Hey,' he said sweetly.
'Hi,' she replied and moved to kiss his lips. Their lips were soft against each other and Kira felt at peace again.
'Who's downstairs?' Connor asked.
'Well, I doubt Ryan's cooking, Billie's probably on his laptop so that only leaves...' Kira said waiting for him to finish.
'Kim,' Connor said. 'Are you ready for today?' he asked.
'I don't know. I want to beat Trent but I don't want us getting hurt,' Kira said.
'We don't have to do this. I can try fighting Trent on my own,' Connor said and Kira gave him a look.
'There is no way I would let you fight that maniac with no powers. I don't care what you say. I just want you and Aden safe,' Kira said and kissed Connor's chest. As the two enjoyed each other's embrace they closed their eyes and swayed.
'We can do it,' Connor whispered.
'I know we can. I just wish there was a better way,' Kira told him and he hugged her tighter. 'Are we going to escape? I mean after you beat Trent. I doubt he'll leave us alone,' Kira said honestly.
'I know. Kim told me about the plane tickets to New York. I have a small house there but it will do for a little while. There's a school not too far away and I'm sure I can find a job somewhere,' Connor said.
'Can I ask you something?' Kira asked.
'You already did,' Connor said and smiled at her.
'No seriously,' Kira said and saw Connor nod. 'Why did you come back to Reefside?' she asked him.
'There's two main reasons I came back. I came to teach soccer around the area and I came to see you...' he said.
'Why would you want to see me after what I had done?' Kira asked.
'I wanted to see you because even after all those years I still loved you. I didn't care who you were with or if you had a kid. I just wanted to see how you were doing,' Connor said.
'You're too good to me Connor McKnight,' Kira said and received a kiss on her head. 'So what will you do when you get back to New York?' she then asked.
'I don't know yet. I'll find out when I get there,' Connor told her. Kira looked up at him and her eyes moved to his lips. She remembered the day those beautiful lips were on hers. She remembered when his long tongue had entered her small mouth. She stared at his lips and found herself moving towards them. She joined her lips with his and felt a thrill go through her. 'This is where I'm meant to be,' she whispered so only she could hear it. She would save her son. Defeat Trent and escape to New York.
Kim had finished making breakfast and was waiting for the rest of the people in the house to get downstairs. Kim moved to the living room and saw Kira's purse on the floor. She picked it up and a picture fell from it. As she took the picture in her hands she saw a picture of Aden when he was 6 years old. At the back of the picture it said "like father like son." Kim smiled at the picture and opened Kira's purse. In it there was Kira's credit cards, pictures of Aden and a picture of an older woman. Kira studied the picture along with a picture of Kira. Kim looked at the two and couldn't help but notice the resemblance. She looked at the long hair that laid just after the shoulder. The honey brown eyes and the same shape face. Kim was lost in thoughts and didn't hear Kira come down the stairs.
'Kim what are you doing?' Kira asked.
'Who is she Kira?' Kim asked not answering Kira's question.
'Why are you looking through my purse?' Kira asked ignoring Kim as well.
'I wasn't. A picture was on the floor. I picked it up to put it in your purse and saw this woman. Who is she Kira?' Kim asked again.
'None of your business Kim,' Kira said and snatched her purse away.
'Kira...' Kim tried to begin.
'NO! You don't have to know! Leave me and my business ALONE! Understand Kim?' Kira screamed causing the whole house to hear.
'What is going on?' Billy asked as he came down the stairs.
'Nothing,' Kira said rudely.
'Kira?' Connor questioned.
'What?' Kira snapped and turned to see a confused Connor.
'What is going on?' he asked her.
'I found a picture of a woman in Kira's purse and wanted to know who she was,' Kim said simply.
'So what's the problem Kira?' Connor asked.
'I know who she is but I don't know who she is,' Kira said and made everyone in the room confused.
'What do you mean?' Kim asked.
'A couple of years after Aden was born I found out something that changed my whole life. I had gone to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor needed my mom and dad's blood and when I asked them for it they said they couldn't. They told me they couldn't because I wasn't their birth daughter,' Kira said with tearful eyes.
'So that woman...' Kim began.
'That woman in the picture is my birth mother,' Kira said and caused shock to fill the room.
Tommy and Ethan had woken up at the cause of an engine. They saw Trent leave the small house and go toward Reefside school. Trent drove quickly and his face had changed. His eyes were still bloodshot. He no longer had any eyebrows. His lips were sealing together. He had no hair and no ears. Trent was losing himself to evil and it was getting worse.
'We have to get Aden out of there,' Ethan said as he sat on his chair properly. He turned to see the former black ranger gone and in front of the car.
'Well what are you waiting for?' Tommy asked.
'Ohh... right,' Ethan said and got out of the car. The two boys went into the house as they had last night. They moved passed the living room and saw the back door. The two crossed their fingers and hoped the white door was open. Tommy put his hand on the door knob and the door slowly opened. The two men looked at each other and entered the dark house.
'Aden!' Tommy yelled. 'ADEN! It's uncle Tommy!' he screamed.
'Mmmmmmm!' the men heard and looked upstairs.
'Aden you up there?' Ethan asked.
'Mmmmmmm!' they heard again. The dark house was hot and dust filled the air. A gloomy atmosphere filled the house and both men wished they weren't there. They walked up the stairs on at a time and the noise got closer.
'Aden?' Tommy asked again.
'Mmmmmmm!' they heard and turned to the room just behind them. The men walked slowly towards it and stood in a position ready to fight. As Ethan moved to open the door he hoped that this wasn't a trick. The dark door opened wide and the two men weren't prepared with what they saw. Aden was badly hurt and blood dripped from his head and stomach. He had some sort of machine around him and as Ethan got closer he gasped.
'Mmmmm?' Aden said in fear.
'Ethan?' Tommy questioned. 'What is it?' he asked.
'That is a bomb. If Aden moves an inch...' Ethan began.
'He will die...'
