May. 12th, 2009 01:40 pmKira slowed reached for the dagger under her pillow. A noise had stirred her from her sleep. She needed to be ready for anything.
"Whoa! Kira!" Tommy stood there, hands up in surrender. "It's me."
She relaxed considerably and lowered the knife. "Oh my God, you scared the hell out of me."
"My house, my room."
She sighed and flopped back against the pillow, sliding the blade back into it's hiding place. "I know. Just forgot where I was for a second."
He shook his head as he looked around the room. "Yeah. I was just coming to check on you. Which, by the way, is something you should get used to while you're here."
"Go to sleep, Dr. O," she mumbled. "I can take care of myself."
She heard him sigh and felt the bed shift as he sat. "You're sleeping in my bed. I think we can drop the formalities."
"Not like we're gonna have sex, Tommy." She paused a second. "Unless, ya know...you want to."
"Kira."
"Right. Not funny."

When Kira realized she was actually going home for her birthday, her mom was the first one she called. Next came Conner, but while he was in Reefside now, he'd be gone by the time she got there. Ethan didn't pick up his phone, but she seriously doubted he was there. She skipped Trent altogether. Not that she didn't want to call him, but things were just...awkward between them lately.
Next person on her list? Cassidy Cornell.

She was leaving. Moving away from the only home she'd ever known to chased her dreams of musical stardom.
She just never knew it would be this hard.
The team was gathered together at Dr. O's house out in the middle of nowhere. It was so hard to believe that this was it. This would be the last time they'd all be together for an indefinite amount of time. Yes, their powers were gone now, but it didn't change anything. Once a Ranger, always a Ranger. Once a team, always a team. More than a team. They were family.
"I'm gonna miss you guy so much."
She couldn't believe it. She was actually having to hold back tears.
The guys all gathered around to hug her, Dr. O in front of her, Conner behind her, and Ethan and Trent at her sides.
"We'll miss you, too," Conner mumbled in her ear. He was crying, she could tell, but she wasn't going tease him this time. She just leaned back into him and enjoyed the moment.
