Dad...
Kira sat alone on her front porch thinking about what just happened. Kim, Connor and Billy had just found out she was adopted and her family had abounded her. She cried as she thought of the woman on the picture. She thought of how she smelled, how she dressed, where she worked, if she had any more children. When Kira had found out it had been a big shock causing her to de depressed for weeks. She was in her thoughts when someone put a hand on her shoulder. She turned around and saw Kim standing behind her. Kira gave a small and weak smile to Kim and turned facing the road once more.
'You OK?' Kim asked her and she nodded. 'Come on Kira, talk to me,' Kim said and the former yellow ranger turned around to look at her.
'What do you want me to say Kim?' Kira asked and saw no answer from the first pink ranger. 'That's what I thought. I have nothing to say. I'm adopted. I was abounded. The woman that left me never tried to get in touch and yet I still have a picture of her in my wallet,' Kira sobbed and Kim put her hand around her. 'You know that might not even be her. That was a picture I found and immediately thought it was her because I look like her. I mean I do right?' Kira went on
'Shhh... Think about it like this. If you hadn't been adopted you would have never been part of the Ford family. That family adores you Kira. If it wasn't for them you wouldn't be the woman you are today. You wouldn't have fallen for Connor. You wouldn't have been a ranger. You wouldn't have had Aden,' Kim said. 'So yes it is sad that you were adopted but never forget that Mr and Mrs Ford made you who you are today and without them you wouldn't have this life, OK Kira?' Kim asked.
'Yeah, I guess you're right. Thanks Kim,' Kira said and smiled better than before.
'No problem. Just know if you need anything I am more than happy to sit down and listen to you,' Kim told her.
'You're a really good friend Kim. I promise if I need anything I'll come to you,' Kira said and gave the former pink ranger a bright smile.
'Well, I'm going to leave,' Kim said suddenly and looked behind Kira. Kira turned and saw Connor standing outside the door. She didn't even hear him open or close the door.
'Thanks,' Kira whispered so only she and Kim could hear. Kim nodded and then went back into the house.
'You OK?' Connor said not knowing what to say.
'Yeah I'm fine,' Kira answered looking at him.
'So what did you do after you found out?' Connor asked.
'I was confused. I had no idea what to do. I was scared that my whole life has been a lie. I was angry because I know that after I saw Aden I could have never let him go so if my mum was prepared to leave me then she must have really hated me,' Kira said crying.
'She didn't hate you Kira. Maybe she just couldn't handle a baby at the time. Maybe she knew that she wasn't going to be good enough for you. Maybe she knew that with Mr and Mrs Ford you could have a better life than she could've given you,' Connor said and got closer to Kira.
'How do you know that?' Kira asked him.
'I know this because anyone that sets their eyes on you - will always love you,' Connor said and caused a small smile to reach Kira's lips. 'I also know that I don't care who your parent are because I will always Love you. I love you because you are Kira, the love of my life' Connor said and moved so he that only a piece of paper could fit between them.
'I love you too,' Kira said and put her head on Connor's chest. 'You know my mother named me Kira,' she said and looked up at Connor
'Well if she hated you she wouldn't have named you would she?' Connor asked and caused Kira to nod.
'Thank you,' Kira whispered.
'Anytime,' he answered back. The two stood in silence leaning against each other. As time passed by they remembered their son and walked back into the house. In the house they began their training and research for when they go on to take the Prince of Evil.
Aden looked at both his uncle's in fear after what he had heard. He couldn't die. He had just met his father and he couldn't leave his mother. They must be going through a lot and they would risk their lives to save him. They'd find him dead and fight. They would hate each other and it would all be his fault.
'You can get rid of it right?' Aden asked scared.
'I can try...' Ethan said with fear in his voice.
'Before you do can I please talk to Connor? I know he probably sent you so can I please talk to him?' Aden asked and watched Ethan and Tommy look at each other.
'Sure,' Tommy said and took his phone off. He dialled Connor's number and waited for him to pick up. As he did he put the phone on loud speaker.
'Hello,' Connor said on the other line.
'Hey. We have some bad news,' Tommy said.
'W-w-what is it?' Connor said with fear in his voice. Aden listened to his father and had never had someone care for him in such a short time.
'Aden has a bomb around him. There's a chance he might not make it!' Ethan said.
'No! Ethan don't say that. He has to make it right. Come on Ethan you have to!' Connor said and sounded as if he had tears in his eyes.
'I can try,' Ethan began.
'No! YOU WILL! You WILL SAVE MY SON!' Connor yelled.
'Calm down Connor,' Tommy said and heard the former red ranger breathe in and out. Aden cried as he heard his father on the phone.
'He wants to talk to you,' Ethan said and put the phone next to Aden.
'OK,' Connor said before sniffing.
'Hi,' Aden said.
'Hey dude, you OK?' Connor asked.
'Not really. I just wanted to say I'm sorry and I shouldn't have gotten mad at you and mum. I just didn't get it. I didn't know why you left me,' Aden said.
'I had no idea I was you're father and I hope you can forgive me. I'm always going to love you no matter what OK?' Connor said and Aden began to cry.
'Yeah I get it. Thanks Connor for everything and in case I don't make it take care of my mom OK?' Aden said.
'You will make it and I will,' Connor said.
'Tell her I love her too,' Aden said and began sobbing.
'Listen to me Aden. You can't quit now because you are a McKnight and we aren't quitters. I believe you will make it and I am not going to stop fighting till you are safe. I care about you more than I can for myself and never forget that. I love you kid,' Connor said.
'I love you too...' Aden began. 'Dad,' he said and heard Connor take a breath.
'Be strong for me and your mom OK?' Connor asked.
'Yeah, course,' Aden said. 'My name is Aden Ford McKnight and I will make it,' he said.
'That's my boy,' Connor said. 'I'll see you soon,' Connor said.
'Yeah you will. Bye dad,' Aden said and the phone was taken from him. Aden eyes lit up and he faced his uncles.
'Uncle Ethan. I have an idea,' he said and both his uncles looked at him interested.
