-AWAKENTHEBEAST-

It was late Friday night. Roxanne had entered HQ in order that she didn't miss Zane, which she was lucky that she didn't. The new ranger walked up to the monitors where Zane was standing by while talking to Anya. Anya and Zane had chemistry but it wasn't going further than a friendship.

"Uh- Zane." Roxanne spoke.

Zane and Anya turn, "Roxxy?" "What are you doing here?"

Roxanne fumbles with her fingers, "Well um- I was wondering if we could speak in private, Zane."

Zane nods, "Yeah sure thing."

Zane and Roxanne walk away from Anya, down toward the training room. Zane noticed the awkward feeling he was getting from Roxanne, it was a sudden worry he felt as she looked upset and tense about what was going on in her head.

"Everything okay?" He asks.

Roxanne shakes her head as she brushes hair behind her ear, "I got a phone call today. It was from my dad's lawyer, he was granted time to see me but I can't go alone- so I was wondering if you'd come?" Roxanne said.

"You sure?" Zane asks.

Roxanne nods, "After everything you've done for me so far. I feel like I can trust you."

Zane nods, "I just assumed you'd ask Zack." He says.

Roxanne shrugs, "He doesn't know about it. And I don't want him to meet my dad." Roxanne said.

"Why?" Zane asks.

Roxanne rubs a single tear from her eye, "After the parent day event- I don't want him to see what I have been hiding from people. I don't feel proud of my family, I don't even know my grandparents. I just want him to know me and not my family."

"You like Zack?" Zane asks.

Roxanne blushes, "He's- a good guy." She avoided looking at Zane.

Zane's smile faded, "Listen he's not going to judge you because of who you are related to. Trust me, Zack isn't that kind of guy. Besides, he really likes you." Zane says.

Roxanne looks at Zane, "You think?"

"I know, now call him. He can tag along." Zane said.

Roxanne nods, "I'll call you tomorrow with the address of my dad's place."

Zane nods, "I'll see you there kiddo."

-AWAKENTHEBEAST-

The next morning Zane had stepped out of his car and walks over to Zack and Roxanne. Roxanne was pacing back and forth, all worried. That was until Zack placed his hands on her shoulder as a form to calm her down. Roxanne looked at Zack and then to Zane.

"I can't do this." She says.

"Yes you can, we're here." Zane said.

Roxanne nods, "Okay. I think I'm ready." Roxanne said.

The three walked up the pathway to the house. Roxanne knocked on the door. Then slowly the door opened revealing a bald, fat man. He glanced at Roxanne and a smile appeared on his face. He opened the door wider and hugged Roxanne.

"Roxxy, it's been too long." He says.

"About five years." Roxanne says.

"And you brought friends?" Her dad says.

"I'm Zane Daniels, her karate instructor and tutor." Zane says.

"And I'm Zack Calvin, I go to school with Roxxy." Zack says.

Her dad eyes them and nods, "Well come in."

Roxanne and the guys follow inside the home. Yet, Roxanne noticed that her dad hasn't changed at all. There were beer cans on the floor, empty beer boxes laying in the corner. Bottles of whiskey and vodka laying or sitting on the coffee table half empty. Roxanne looked shocked and her dad noticed it.

"Sorry for the mess." He says.

Roxanne swallowed, "It's fine."

Zane nods, "You probably weren't expecting guest." He tried to cover up.

Roxanne's dad nods, "You said it. By the way, the name is Walter." Walter says.

Walter motions for them to sit on the couch, which had some empty cans on and even an empty pizza box. Walter just threw the trash across the room and he sat down on a sofa chair. He smiles and looks at his daughter, Roxanne looks at her dad before turning to the floor.

"So you do karate? I didn't think Diana would be okay with something violent." Walter said.

Roxanne brushes hair behind her ear, "I also box. But- mom doesn't really know about it." She says.

Walter nods and reaches for a red solo cup, "I'm proud you're doing things despite your mother." He then takes a drink.

Roxanne watches him place the solo cup on the coffee table, "Yeah."

Walter turns to Zane, "So is she some karate champion?"

Zane awkwardly smiles, "She's a great student yes. She quickly caught on and caught up to my other students." Zane said.

Walter chuckles, "That's my girl." He grabs the solo cup and takes another drink.

Roxanne watched her dad's behavior and the way he kept drinking that the liquid out of the cup. Zane glanced at Roxanne before turning his attention to the host, Zack kept his eyes on Roxanne with a worry expression.

"So, Zack you dating my baby?" Walter asks.

"What? No." Zack said.

Walter seemed offended, "Why? What's wrong with her?"

"Dad!" Roxanne asks.

"Roxxy, its only a question. So what the hell is wrong with my daughter?" Walter asks.

"Nothing, I- just don't know." Zack says.

Walter stands up, "Is she not pretty enough?"

Walter went on to spat on more reasons why Zack isn't dating Roxanne. Until he tripped over something and spilled the liquid in his drink, it fell on the floor near the guest in his home. Roxanne smelled the spilled liquid and it was familiar to her.

"You're drinking vodka? Now." Roxanne asks.

Walter turns his attention to his daughter, "It's only one cup."

"One cup? Explain this damn mess!" Roxanne shouts standing up.

Zane and Zack stood up too, in case this got violent in any way. Both guys knew the history between Roxanne and her father.

"Don't use that tone with me young lady!" Walter shouts.

"What will you do? Throw another book at me?" Roxanne asks.

Walter gets in her face, "Don't yell at me Roxxy!" Walter goes to slap her.

Roxanne grabs his wrist, "Don't call me Roxxy ever again." She says and shoves the drunk back.

Walter collapsed onto the mess in his home. Roxanne stood there staring down a man she in a way wanted to have a relationship with all her life but didn't get it. Now staring at him she realized she didn't need that relationship with him. Roxanne glanced at Zack and Zane.

"We should probably leave." Roxanne said.

Zane nods, "Yeah."

As they reach the door they hear Walter begging for Roxanne to come back, "Please. I'm so sorry. I promise- I'll quit."

Zack noticed a single tear slide down her cheek, she bit her lip and walked out of the house. She walked down the driveway and waited by Zane's car, as the guys came out of the house. Zack watches Roxanne rub the tears from her eyes.

"You okay?" Zane asks.

Roxanne nods, "Yeah- um thanks for coming."

"Roxxy?" Zack asks.

"I'm gonna go. Later." Roxanne says and takes off.

Zack didn't go after her, which he wished he did. He began to head off in one direction but was stopped by Zane.

"We need to have a talk." Zane says.

-AWAKENTHEBEAST-

Roxanne sat in her bed in her bedroom. She curled up with her pillow and was crying. She sobbed and sobbed. When she heard her mother at the door, she didn't even yell for her to leave her alone. Diana opened the door to see her daughter crying.

"Roxanne," Diana said.

Roxanne looks up, "Why is he like that? Why can't he change?" Roxanne cries.

Diana walks over and hugs her daughter, "It's not your fault baby."

Roxanne held onto her mom, "I- I shouldn't have gone. I had a feel he didn't change." Roxanne said.

Diana kissed her daughter's forehead, "You had no idea baby. And his lawyer said he had the right to see you, you were curious. It's okay." Diana said.

Roxanne sobbed, "Mom. He almost hit me."

Diana embraces her daughter again, "Oh baby."

-AWAKENTHEBEAST-

Zane and Zack were sitting on Zane's car hood by the park, "Why are we here?" Zack asks.

"So we can talk." Zane said.

"About?" Zack asks.

"Roxxy." Zane said.

There was a sudden silence. Zack had a feeling what it was going to be about and felt nervous about it.

"Roxxy is going through a lot right now, and you need to be there for her. She trust you, probably more than me. She needs that shoulder right now." Zane said.

Zack looks at him, "But- I don't know what to say." Zack said.

Zane looks at Zack, "Sometimes not saying anything helps the most. Just hug her and be her friend." Zane said.

Zack looks down and then pulls out his cell, "I'm gonna call her."

"Okay." Zane says.

Zack dials Roxanne's number. Zane hears Zack's side of the call, it sounded like it was going well. That Zack was going to head over to Roxanne's to talk to her and just hang out. Zane watched a smile appear on Zack's face as he said something which made him and probably even Roxanne laugh lightly.

-AWAKENTHEBEAST-

Zack found Roxanne in the garage. Roxanne was changing the tire on her car when Zack entered the garage. Roxanne stopped what she was doing and turned to Zack, he had a soft smile on his face. She formed a small smile and stands up.

"Hi," She says.

"Hey," He said.

Roxanne pulls up a small chair for him, "Sorry you had to see that today."

"It's okay." He says.

Roxanne shakes her head, "No its not."

Zack looks at her, "Roxxy it's not your fault."

Roxanne looks at him, "I was hoping that everything could be fixed. My dad could be my dad again, and not a drunk. Maybe my mom could be a mom and not her usual bully self. I just hoped to have a normal family, again. Does that seem so bad?" She asks.

Zack shakes his head, "No." He says.

Roxanne pulls her hair out of her face, "Ever since I was a kid, I've felt just alone." Roxanne said.

Zack stands up, "But you aren't now." He says.

"Zack," Roxanne turns to face him.

Zack forms a smile, "You're surrounded by amazing people who care for you." He says.

Roxanne felt tears sliding down her face, "You didn't have to say that."

Zack nods, "Yeah I did. I need to say something else I haven't told you yet." He said.

Roxanne rubs her tears away, "What?"

Instead of saying something, Zack just walked forward placing his hands on Roxanne's shoulder to kiss her on the lips. Roxanne's eyes were wide until they shut and she embraced Zack. Zack pulled back and stared into Roxanne's eyes with an awkward smile.

"I love you, Roxxy." Zack said.

Roxanne holds onto his hands, "I love you too, Zack."

Zack smiles, "That's a relief. Or this would have been awkward." He said.

Roxanne giggles, "Isn't it alright awkward?"

Zack chuckles, "Probably." He says.

"So?" She asks.

"So what?" He says.

Roxanne forms a smile, "Are we- you know? Dating?"

Zack blushes, "Do you want to date?" He asks.

Roxanne smiles, "I'd love to."
