Austin wrapped his arms around her, snuggling against her , he held her close protectively . His hand gentley began to stroke her long tresses, he smilled softly , " no more tears, lets just fall asleep , i promise i wont let go,"


seriously lacking Squizz is tonight , been a bad night :)

Natasha nodded, her head nuzzling his bare chest, as she yawned, "No more tears ..."

She sighed as her body litlted gently off to sleep in his arms, feeling so protected ...

--

Okay, maybe we should slow Austin and Natasha down so that the rest can catch up .. you know, or at least have danny do his explanation before we do new day ...

Billy paused, "ah, i seem to have found it, the event Wood was talking of," Billy punched several buttons,

Sora's ears perked at the scene, " the invasion," Sora muttered, he looked on as his morphed cousin attempted to take on hundreds of grunts.

It was a familiar scene (specially if you love in Space XD) but there in the middle of it all was some very familiar children. A young Wood was attempting to take a pirahnatron down on his own , trying his best toprotect his friends, as an incresing anxious blue ranger noticed the young oneabee,

Call it timing but a one Mr TJ Johnson beamed into that CC at that moment , his blood ran cold at the footage, " the wormhole monster," he muttered,



It was then indeed a large monster made itself known to the children , a daunting monster, "bye bye kiddies," it hissed, a vortex started to swirl dragging the children in, Nathan screamed, grabbing hold of something secure as his legs lifted off the ground,

"No" TJ screamed, he lashed out at the monster just as the vortex had took hold of the Kennedy siblings, they'd gone simply disappeared, damn his brother whyd he have to follow him out bring his two friends too and worse than that the one younger sister, he had no chance to voice his anger, as the monster now struck back.

It was several hours later when the rangers stumbled upon Kali and Danny Kennedy only they seemed subltey different this time, as much as an 8 year old and a 7 year old could.

"No, not Danny, Felix," a boys voice said blinking at Wood in confusion on the tape as TJ reunited them, it was there the footage ended.


"Holy cow," Winter proclaimed, " so these are the originals?"

Billy nodded, "it would seem so, "

Mina watched with interest and was nodding to hyerself

Lammy also watched with interest. She too was nodding. "Yes, they are. Athough idtenicle in ever way, there are subtle differences in style, body language. Yes, these are definately the orginals. They belong here. Zoe's head trauma must have triggered the rubberband effect," she mused thoughtfully

"Now we're gettin' off into the world of Danny don't know shit about it," Danny declared, crossing his arms over his chest

Tori grabbed Wood's arm. "that could have been you," she murmured softly, fearfully

It was a bit mroe easier to take the information kali had given. Ryla was surprised, and near laughing to hear herself timid, but gently rubbed Tai's back ,knmowing how his parents were such a sore and horrible subjest , and his sister ... Charlie had been a bit surprised, no doubt tha tif she had never encountered that night wit hteh General ... she would have turned out much different. Ariana was still wiping the tears away, as she watched the footage. She saw little Felix, and she smiled slightly. He was so sweet, and that just started off anotehr slew of silent tears ...

Kali had jumped back up onto the console, banging the top gently, "SO I takes it ... here mum and pop didn't split ..." She shrugged, "Lucky Fe and Zo I guess ... didn't have to go through that battle ..."

She shuddered at the memory, probalby the move and the split is what toughed both her and her brotehr up so much more than could have ...

Ryla linked her arm around Tai's back as she nodded, "No ... all one happy family unit, from what Zoe told me ... sickening gross sometimes I think she said ... yo know, PDA's and all that ..."

"Dang ... well that'll take gettin' used to pop alive and well ... Amanda and pop being civil? No less ... lovin' and that? dang ... and he probably don't smoke ... so I'm guessing ..." she fished something out of her pocket, tossing it to the ground, a pack of cigarettes, "Neither did Zo ... frig, you got yer way now Danny ... i gotta quit now ... or get an ear full I'll bet from Manda ... she was on me plenty when we moved back to quit ..."

Charlie reached down to pick up the pack, "Yes, indeed, quite the filthy habit."

"Oh please .. .I wasn't alone," she pointed, "Queeny smoked, Kakura chewed, now that's gross ... I was tryin' my hardest to keep Nate away .. but he was lookin' for the stress relief ..." she shrugged, "But I quit ... here and now ..."

Ryla make a face at the smokes, and shook her jhead, "Lung cancer in a stick ... mum smokes ... like a chimney ... no way I wanna drag off that ..."

It had just dawned on Kali, as she looked around, and she almost asked out loud, but simply eyed her brother, in that knowing way brothers and sisters could, Where's Nat and AJ? ... hmmm ... must not be found yet ...

"Chewing Tobacco, " Wood exclaimed, "yeah you copuld be calling me by my middlename," he smilled.

TJ mouthed the words at the same time eying his brother, obviously the Wood in that world had popped, his stomach squirmed, " How's Kakuras relationship with his family in that world?" However he already knew obviously that Wood had popped.

Nath went quiet, he wasnt beyond picking a ciggarette up when stressed, definately one of his dirty secrets.

"Rubber band? " Winter asked, "oh twang," he exclaimed as it sunk in.


Autumn looked thoughtful "so basically im a ditz in that world and wins.... well he is anyway,"

"i aint the only one," Win joked, "you've resisted sliding down the stairs on matresses as much as me over the years,"

Ryla leaned up and kissed him gently, "Well ... none on me ..." she hugged him, smilng softly, gently rubbing his back.

Kali nodded, making a face at her brother, "ya Ya Lex," she liked to annoy her brother by giving him a abreviation of his first name, "Don't make a face Tori ... you seemed to like it just fine .. well, second hand anyways .. .the way you and Kakura were always sucking face ... or, eatin' each otehrs off more like it ..." she hgave a wink, and laughed, "Ahh, good times ..."

Ryla started laughing, "TOri? Sucking face with wood ... oh man, I'd pay to see that ..."

Ariana moved over towards Billiy, "Billy ... is there any way to tap into the altenate dimension via the power source from their command centre? Perhaps see what is going on? see anything .. .maybe get a better odies of how felix and zoe are doing ... have done ... somehting ..."

" i can try," Billy said tapping at a control panel

Wood blushed extremely, at the mention of that , his freckles seemed more noticable than ever.

TJ bit his lip, and rather surprisingly grabbed Wood in a hug from behind him, somwhat shicking the blushing Wood. " You know they do care dont you?"
Teej not the time," Wood declared looking irritable.

Sora shook his head, " you guys are meant to be the eldest," he exclaimed, he blushed somewhat forcing Rei roving hand away , "<not here, not now>" he muttered in Japanese in a whisper.

Autum giggled, "we can still have fun when we want to, you've become a stick in the mud Sora,"

"Why?" Tai wondered. "DO you want people paying to see us do it?" he asked, teasing again

"Hell, no. I don't even wanna see it for free," Rex declared


Tori was just plain pink all over now


Taran looked innocent. "oldest doesnt necesarrily mean anything. Besides, Tai's Mr. Respinsible leader. The job's in his hand now and I aim to enjoy myself being just a follower," he stated

Lammy merely grinned enigmatically

Ryla flushed a bit, grinning, "Well ... i could use the money .. and to see Rex gag would be worth it ... but who'd pay to see it?" she laughed kissing him again, "Because I seem to enjoy doing it for free ..."

Kali inched to the other endof the console, near Rex, "Dang ... at least alter you all was ... dicreet ... makes a girl wanna have to keep up ..." she threw a wink at Rex before grinning, and turning abck to her brother, "So we all gotta act like we belong at home ... how's Amanda and pop gonna deal wit hthe us they see now? GOnna definatly see the differences ..."

Ariana nodded to Billiy, tugigng his arm, "Please do ..."

"Got it," Billy griined,


" Ay guys ive got through on this damn thing the fucking thing seems to have worked, " the face on the screen was erely familiar, Those twinkling brown eyes that chocolate warm skin those speckled freckles, even the dreadlocks, only this boys seeme to be much longer draped over his shoulders and dangling down his back. " Hey erm, not Danny and Kai, is this where you come from", suddenly Kakuras almost Wood like expression changed growing darker, " ay Will do your thing before you pansys think ive gone soft,"

Wood's jaw dropped, " Holy shit,"

Sora nodded, his eyes widened, to some unknown stimulus, he wasnt' exactly Mr Maturity himself, as hed managed to prove of late, something Rei was taking good advantage of as she practised some of her recently discovered powers, to project images into Sora's mind,

"Rei was oddly unfazed by goings on smirking, looking oddly Zita like, she was quite besotted with Sora, to take much notice she wasnt going to be a great help anyway she should really even be there.


"I like the sound of that," Autumn beamed her brown eyes a twinkle,

Tori blinked. "Oh dear," she murmured


"Ok, Ok," another voice offscreen came through, sounding quite meek and as if it were in midst of a wince. "D-sorry, Felix, did you wanna say something?" she asked sofly

Billie and Mina were in agreement they couldnt belive that was her voice sounding so cowed. "Good lord, get a backbone already," she muttered

Felix's familiar face appeared on screen and he blinked. "Wow...you know, this royally sucks," he declared. "Ok, we don't know how long we have...and...Zoe's ok..we talked, decided that...well, It's meant to be this way from what we learned," he explained, sadness filling his expression


Lammy reached out and piked Rei in reprimand. "leave him alone. this is serious buisiness," she scolded gently, though in a friendly way

Taran grinned at Autumn but put his finger to his lips and paid attention to the goings ons around them

Ryla was seeing past the others, to the view of a girl with amazingly long blonde hair, with a shy grin on her face, flushing furiously with someone that looked neough like Tai not ot be mistaken, "The hell ..."

"I do hope yo uand Danny are going to like it there Kaliegh!" she smiled and clutched Tai's handwaving her goodbye, tears glistening, "We'll miss you something fierce!"

"Oh ... my god ... did I swallow a pound of sissy ..."

Kali winced at ehr full name used, "Yea yea La La, We'll be fine ... now Zo's gotta watch you flushin when Tai grabs your butt ..."

Zoe rolled her eyes, "I can see that will be trying ..."

Ariana rushed to the viewig globe, "Felix!" she touched the globe, "Felix .. I ..." shewasn't sur qwhat to say but ... she had to sy ... "Felix ... I'm going to miss you so much ... I ... I love you ... I donm't think I can ..." she was all tears now, sobbing, "PLease I ..."

Charlie came up behind Ariana aagain, gathering her in her arms, "Shh ... honey come on now .. he don't want to see you like this ..."

Rei grinned slightly, though it seemed from the deep breaths Sora was taking, she'd stopped messing with his head,

Sora smilled , "thanks," he said to Lammy gratefully,

Autumn smilled, though her attention was suddenly gone her eyes sparkled with tears at Felix and Ariana, "this is so awful," she murmered,"

"Hey man," a comforting arm was already round Felix''s shoulders, his face now visible on the scene, those ice blue eyes noticeble anywhere even if the spiky black hair and dishy features werent, though those features did exist under his greesey mop, "you can both pull through this," the calm voise said even to Arianna, " your made of the right stuff,"

"OMGod i look like Rex's twin," a startled nath said before he even found chance to react to Billies backbone comment.

Even Winter gauped at the fresh faced Nate , "wow, has Nath....."

"What is it with , yes felix is blonde and yes Nath is well," Autumn grinned slightly, " whats a matter win fearing competition from the young uns,"

Both Ryla's looked at their respective boyfriends before grinning, "I think it's kind of cute ... but I like yours better ..."

Kali smirked, "He is, isn't he? Not a bad kisser either ..." she licked her lips, blwing kisses to Nate, "Miss you all star! give plenty kisses to the girls for me! You too Xavier ... not that I'd have to tell you ..."

A picture of Laurel appeared on screen, holding hands wit hRex, "Where am I?" she shrugged, smilng, "Have a great life you two ... you guys wil do well I'm positive!" she gave a polite wave and smiled, grinning, before hugging Rex, stepping out of the weay of the globe.

Ariana's breath caught, as she stepped away, out of Charlie's embrace, he never even ... he just ... her eyes fell shaking ehr head, "Felix ..." she turned away, shivering.

Suddenly, the screen fizzled, and the long haired, slutty image of one woman who looked eerily like Ariana and raina combined. She had the sparkle of sweetness in ehr eyes, before but the evil quirk against her lips, "Ahh ... didn't think you two would get away without my sayig fairwell ... now did you?"

Kali hopped off the console, growling angrily, "Queeny!"

Queeny laughed darkly, before qouting, "So sad you'll be leaving ... but don't think I won't miss you ... Kali my dear ... it'll be hard to hate some new girl ... as so much as I hated you ..." she waved to her laughing, before her eyes fell on Danny, "And Danny ... sweet, sweet Danny .. .Zi must say, I will miss you ..." she puckered her lips blowing akiss, "Not even my husband kisses as well as you ..." she licked her bottom lip, "Yum ..."

Nath blushed , " erm yeah ," he scratched the back of his head sheepishly, his usually sarcy quality diminished, no retort of was that suppose to be a compliment like he might have tried normally.

"Holy shit," Win proclaimed, "its like some bad dream, " he shuddered slightly at a few memories he didnt want to remember let alone talk about indepth with Ariana or Lammy.


Rei smilled oddly, "things will turn out right," she smilled egnimatically,
Sora gave her an odd look.
