"I'm not sure if you can hear me," Skull said out loud, "I've been in a coma where I could hear, but couldn't speak or move, so I understand. Just wanted to let you know you are safe and that you have friends that care about you and want you back."

"You haven't left her side since she got here, except when you went to speak to Tommy. Go get some rest," Bulk mentioned to his friend.

"I don't want her waking up alone and not knowing where she is," Skull replied.

"Have you heard from the others yet?" Bulk asked.

He shook his head, "I think they are either waiting for her to wake up or for another attack."

"Can they really beat Lucifer? Are you going back into battle?" Bulk worried.

"Everyone has set backs, but they will do it. I'll go if they need me; I'm not letting the world get taken over."

"You know I'll be there to help too, even if you won't let me in the fighting," Bulk joked to lighten the mood.

"Thanks," Skull said turning back to Raven. He didn't have a medical chamber that could heal her like the space rangers had, and he didn't have a ton of medical supplies, but he knew how to set bones to heal, and so he did that and waited. He'd been giving her water and liquid food so she didn't dehydrate and starve.

It'd been a week since she had been attacked, and at this point, with the extra healing powers of the bandages, it still would take a couple more weeks for the bones to heal.

Raven started gaining consciousness. She started to move just a bit, "Raven?" she heard. She tried opening her eyes but it was so bright she had trouble focusing, there was a face, but she couldn't tell whose.

"Raven, it's ok, don't move too much, you broke your arm," she heard. Finally, her brain worked through the fog until she could see clearly. There was a guy, not far from her age, with dark hair and dark clothes.

"Who are you?" she coughed, trying to bring words to her mouth.

"You can call me Skull. You are safe here, don't worry," he said calmly, "I know Tommy, and your friends know you are here."

"What happened?" She said trying to sit up and clear her mind.

He helped her sit up without hurting her arm, "You were fighting the purple ranger, and she broke your arm. I saved you but she's still out there. You've been out for about a week."

"Skull, dinner is ready," they heard from the kitchen. Bulk had gotten a lot better at cooking in the past couple years.

"Bulk, make a third plate," Skull yelled back, then he asked Raven, "You do like macaroni right?"

Raven nodded in response. Finally she got the courage to ask, "Are you a power ranger too?"

Skull showed her his wrist morpher, "A bit different than yours, and my outfit is different design, but yes, I am a power ranger."

Raven felt her stomach grumble, "Lead the way?" She tried standing, but her legs were a little uneasy so Skull helped her walk.

They went out to the kitchen, "This is my best friend Bulk," Skull introduced.

"Good to see you finally awake," Bulk said while plating up food.

"Nice to meet you," Raven said.

They talked over dinner, about interests, their jobs, and what it was like to be a ranger. As they finished, "We should probably call your friends to let them know you are awake," Skull said, "I did promise a certain Jack that I would let him know as soon as his best friend woke up," he laughed.

"Jack worries too much, but yeah, I'll let them know. I should probably go back to campus soon anyway," Raven replied.

"It's gotten late; you might get attacked being on your own out there. I can walk you back if you'd like, or you could stay here until morning, we can play games or something," Skull suggested.

"Games sounds nice," Raven answered, reaching for the cell phone she thought would be in her pocket.

"Oh, your phone was in the other room, it should be fully charged," Skull knew what she was looking for.

"Hello?" Jack answered through the phone.

"Hey Jack," Raven answered.

"You're awake! How are you feeling? Are you coming back soon?" Jack asked quickly.

"I'm ok, just sore. I'm coming back to campus tomorrow, so we can hang out then, ok?" Raven replied, "Tell everyone I'm fine."

"Ok, goodnight."

"Night."

"Did you want to take a shower? You could borrow a change of clothes if you like. I know what it feels like after you've been out for a while. Although, I was out for three weeks instead of one, and I had a computer taking care of me," Skull smiled.

"Sure," Raven managed to get herself undressed and in the shower. Skull had given her a black shirt and a pair of skull covered pajama pants, 'seems like he only wears black and skulls, could be worse though,' she thought to herself.

She got out of the shower, dried herself, and managed to get the pants on. She got the shirt half way on but couldn't finish with her broken arm, plus it needed to be bandaged again. She was embarrassed but knew she needed help. She opened the door slightly, "Hey Skull?"

He came to the outside of the door, "Yeah?"

"If it's not a problem, could you bandage me and help me finish getting dressed?" she asked.

"Yeah, let me go get the bandaging," he replied. He came back and she opened the door. He kept his eyes on her arm and back, and got her bandaged and fully into her shirt.

"Thanks. And thanks for taking care of me this week, you didn't have to do that," she told him.

"It's what rangers do for each other," he replied smiling.

Raven and Skull stayed up all night playing card games. He told her how he became a ranger and how they saved the world, and she told him how she became a ranger. Bulk would have played too, but he had to work the next day. Skull drank coffee to help him stay up longer, and Raven wasn't tired from having slept for a week straight.

In the morning when it was light out Raven decided it was time to go back to campus.

"Are you sure you don't want me to walk you there?" Skull asked her.

"I'll be fine, the walk isn't that far, thanks again, I'm sure I'll see you around though," Raven replied.

"Plus you'll need to get your clothes out of my washer," he reminded her that she was currently wearing his clothes, "It's ok though, I put my number in your phone in case you need me for anything."

"Thanks again," Raven said as she tried to hug him, before she started her walk back home.

Skull closed the door and saw Bulk there in his work uniform.

"You're falling for her, aren't you?" Bulk asked his friend jokingly.

"I've only known her really a day, but yeah, there's just something about her," Skull mentioned before heading off to take a nap.
