-Carol
Sky was in his room sitting on his bed looking at the picture of his mom, and started to remember.
Flashback
Sky went upstairs and knocked on his mother's room.
"Come in!" Jen said, when the door opened to see it was Sky.
"Hi mom." Sky said.
"Hi sweetie." Jen responded.
"How are you feeling?" Sky asked.
"A bit fine, you know." Jen answered, and saw her son a bit sad. "What's wrong?"
"I just can't believe this is happening to you. That you have some kind of illness and only a few months to live." Sky said.
"I know, but it's going to be okay. As long as my family is here with me, it's all that matters." Jen said.
"Hopefully you'll still be around on my birthday." Sky said.
"If I can still make it close, I wouldn't miss it." Jen said, when the door opened to see it was Alex.
"Sky. You should let your mother rest." Alex said.
"I'm just keeping her company, besides she was already awake." Sky responded.
"Alex. It's okay, I've already rested enough, we were just talking a bit." Jen said, then suddenly started to cough.
"Jennifer. Here. Drink some water carefully." Alex gave her a glass of water and tried to drink it.
"Mom. Are you okay now?" Sky asked.
"Yeah. I'm okay." Jen responded, slowly breathing.
"Sky. Let's leave your mom to rest for a bit, she needs it." Alex said.
"I want to stay with her." Sky said.
"Sky." Jen said. "I'll be fine. Thank you for keeping me company."
"Come on." Alex said, and both walked out of the room.
"Next time, just let me stay with her." Sky said upset with Alex.
"Sky." Alex said, but Sky didn't listen and went to his room.
End of Flashback
"Sky!" he heard his name being called and put the picture back in his drawer, as the rangers walked in his room. "Hey. What is it?"
"Just to let you know, that commander Cruger wants us to start packing as soon as possible." Bridge said.
"Will be leaving first thing in the morning." Syd said.
"Anything else?" Sky said.
"Yeah. We didn't know you were from that town where we're going to." Z answered.
"Silver Hills. It's where I grew up." Sky said.
"Really? What's it like over there?" Syd asked.
"I can hardly remember, I don't know if it's the same on how I remembered it." Sky answered.
"You didn't seem happy, when commander Cruger said it." Bridge said.
"He thought you would have been, but you weren't." Z said.
"Don't you have family there, who will be happy to see you come back?" Syd asked.
"You barely don't talk about them." Bridge said.
"My parents are dead." Sky responded, and everyone was surprised.
"We're sorry, we don't know what to say." Z said.
"Nothing. I mean what does it matter anyway." Sky said.
"You don't have any siblings?" Syd asked.
"Only one sister, she's been living with friends of my parents, ever since I left." Sky answered.
"See. At least you do have someone who will be happy to see you." Z said.
"I guess, I never had the chance to go back to see on how she's been doing." Sky said.
"Well, why don't you surprise her, I'm sure she'll be happy to see you." Bridge said.
"I don't know, even if I go back, it will bring back so many memories." Sky said.
"Mind if we ask: How did your parents die?" Z asked.
"I sort of don't want to talk about it." Sky answered.
"It's okay, we understand. Whenever you feel like talking about it, we're here to listen." Bridge said.
"Thanks. I think I'm going to take a walk." Sky said, and left his room.
"You think he'll be okay?" Z asked.
"I would say, he has a lot in his mind he's hiding." Bridge said.
"Well I don't know about you guys, but I'm going to go star packing." Syd said.
"Yeah. Let's go." Z said, and went to their rooms. Sky was making his way out when he came across Doggie.
"Cadet Tate. May I have a word with you in my office?" Doggie asked.
"Sure Commander." Sky responded and both were headed their way in Doggie's office.
"Care to explain on your reaction when I said the name of the town your all going to for your mission?" Doggie asked.
"It was a surprise to me, the place where I grew up and thought I would come back soon." Sky explained.
"Well there is your chance now, I thought you would have been happy about it, but I guess I was wrong." Doggie said.
"Maybe a bit, I only have a sister who's my only family there, she's been living with friends of my parents." Sky said.
"I'm sure she'll be happy to see you again, after being far away from home." Doggie said.
"I guess you can say that. I finally found a place where nobody thinks I'm a-" Sky was interrupted.
"Freak. Never say that, cadet. We are all the same whether your human or alien with gifted powers of use in saving the world from evil." Doggie said.
"Thank you, Commander." Sky said. "Anything else?"
"Actually, now that you mention there is something I want you to do and I hope he accepts, he could be a good use in help for the mission." Doggie said.
"I think I know who your talking about." Sky said.
"Go and see if he is willing to accept." Doggie said.
"Will do, Commander." Sky said.
"Thank you. Dismiss." Doggie said and Sky left his office making his way out. When he made his way to Samuels Clothing then went inside and walked to the front desk.
"Hi. I'm looking for Jack Landors." Sky said.
"Who may I ask is looking for him?" the chair turned around seeing it was Piggy there and was startled to see Sky. "Oh! It's you. You gave me quite a scare, sorry I still get a little jumpy whenever I see you or your friends come unexpectedly."
"I completely forgot you work here." Sky said. "Anyway, is Jack around?"
"He is actually, I'll let him know your here." Piggy answered.
"Thanks. I'll wait for him." Sky said, when Jack appeared and was happy to see Sky.
"Sky. Hey. Nice to see you here." Jack said.
"Hey Jack. How's it going?" Sky asked.
"Good. Not much." Jack answered. "How about you?"
"I've been good." Sky said.
"Well you didn't seem okay yesterday when we all went out to celebrate you guys being awarded." Jack said.
"I wasn't in the mood, that's all." Sky said.
"Everything okay with you now?" Jack asked.
"Yeah. Nothing to worry about, though there is a reason why I'm here." Sky said.
"Why is that?" Jack asked.
"Commander Crugger sent me to ask you if you would accept to join us on a very important mission." Sky explained.
"A mission? What's in it for me?" Jack asked.
"Well, we could really use your help in this, you may no longer be part of SPD, but to us your still considered as one of us." Sky said.
"I don't know, Sky. I mean things have been going great for me, I'm not sure if Ally would be okay with me leaving for a bit." Jack said, not noticing Ally walking behind him.
"I think a vacation is what you need, Jack." Ally said, which startled Jack turning around.
"Ally. I didn't even see you there." Jack said.
"Hey Ally." Sky said.
"Hi Sky." Ally responded. "Jack. You should accept going, I'll be okay running the place, after all when was the last time you got to spend time with your friends even if your not an SPD ranger anymore?" Jack was surprised hearing Ally's words.
"So what do say?" Sky asked.
"Alright. I accept. For old times sake." Jack answered.
"Great. Thanks Jack." Sky said.
"No problem." Jack said "So when do we leave?"
"First thing in the morning." Sky answered.
"Then I better start packing." Jack said.
"Good idea. I haven't even started yet." Sky said, and laughed.
"Well you both better get started." Ally said.
"Yeah, well I better get going, I'll let Commander Crugger know and keep this a surprise for the rest." Sky said.
"Okay, then see you tomorrow." Jack said.
"See you. Bye Ally." Sky said.
"Bye Sky. Nice seeing you." Ally responded, as Sky made his way out.
The Next Morning
Everyone had gotten up around six in the morning and started to load their things in an SPD truck, though they were still a little tired.
"Well that's the last of it." Bridge said.
"You mean of what Syd had packed." Z said.
"What. Who knows how long will be there." Syd said.
"It's not a vacation, we're on a mission." Sky said, when Doggie, Kat, Boom, and RIC, came to say good-bye to them.
"Well rangers, do your best in capturing this criminal and making the world safe again." Doggie said.
"Good luck rangers, your going to need it. If there is trouble going on, you know you can reach us whenever you can." Kat said.
"Before you all leave, I would like to give you all these. They could be in good use on your mission." Boom said, opening a small case which were wrist watches.
"Watches?" Z said.
"Not just a watch, they are tracking device watches, in case your morphers loose contact to one another and you got a substitute for it, they won't block any signal or cause any interference, like say your trapped in another planet or dimension and now have a way in contacting." Boom explained.
"Looks so cool." Bridge said.
"Thanks Boom." Syd said.
"I think will keep them in the case for now." Sky said, when he turned around hearing RIC bark in the truck. "No RIC. You can't come with us. Sorry." RIC jumped out walking sadly.
"Poor thing. He's going to miss us." Z said.
"Alright rangers, have a safe trip." Doggie said.
"We will commander. Good-bye." Sky said, as everyone else waived good-bye, and started driving off. "Hang on guys, there is one stop I want to make." when Sky stopped the car and the rest wondered why and saw not far someone waiting.
"Wait a minute." Syd said.
"Is that..." Bridge paused for a minute.
"It's Jack." Z said.
"Hey everyone. Happy to see me?" Jack said, as everyone got out of the truck and hugged him happily.
"I knew you guys would be happy to see him." Sky said.
"Your coming along with us?" Syd asked.
"Of course I am, you guys could use my help." Jack said.
"Just like old times." Z said.
"Let's hope your stuff fits in here somewhere, the majority is all Syd's." Bridge said.
"I'm not even going to ask." Jack said.
"Very funny, Bridge." Syd said, as they all got in the truck.
"All right guys buckle up, to our destination." Sky said, as they were making their way to Silver Hills.
