Scott Household

Inside a medium-sized bedroom, a girl slept, her jet-black hair splayed out on the pillow behind her head. On her left wrist, two communicators sat, one small and watch-like, the other large and much bulkier. On her other wrist, a charm bracelet was, only one charm, a crimson heart, clipped to it. A smile graced her face as she slept, simply from the good dream she was having. The room reflected the girl perfectly- half of the walls were purple, while the other half was white. Beige carpeting covered the floor, and different posters and pictures covered the walls. Most of the posters were of her favorite music groups and singers, with one being a picture of a kitten yawning, the text, 'it's hard work being this cute' written above it. Most of the pictures were of friends and family, although some stood out. One was of her with the original Power Rangers team; another was her and the next team, and another was the current team, which included her as a Ranger. A moon chair sat in one corner of the room, facing the T.V. and right next to her bed. A small balcony facing the backyard was also attached to the room, making it the perfect room for a teenage girl.

The door to the room soon opened, revealing Jason and Trini Scott, their son Danny in Jason's arms. The three crept into the room silently, and Jason set his son down on jac's bed, smirking. He nodded to his son, who then started jumping on Andy's bed. "WAKE UP! WAKE UP! JAC, JAC, WAKE UP!" Danny shouted with glee as he jumped, effectively waking her.

"I'm up, I'm up!" jac laughed, catching her nephew and sitting up, setting him next to her as she yawned and stretched. Looking up, she saw her brother and sister-in-law, both smiling at her. "Good morning; mind telling me what the loud awakening was all about?" she questioned, her light green eyes sparkling.

Jason looked at his wife, who was slowly becoming bigger as her pregnancy progressed, and back to his sister, his smile growing. "Oh, come on! Don't tell me you forgot about your birthday!" he exclaimed. "You're seventeen now, jac!"

Jac's eyes widened and she looked at the calendar on the wall. Indeed, it was June 1st… Her seventeenth birthday.

"Huh. I completely forgot, with all the monsters we got during the week," jac said. Turning sheepish, she also added, "I thought it was tomorrow," she admitted. "Oh yeah, Zack is promoting the dojo today at noon; almost forgot about that, too."

Jason rolled his eyes. "Come on, sis, get up! You can't stay in bed all day!" he exclaimed, picking up his son from her bed.

Jac groaned and threw the covers over her head. "No," she moaned, "It's too early!"

Trini laughed. "Sweetie, it's ten in the morning," she informed the girl she always considered as a sister.

Jac groaned again, but got up, picking up some clothes and heading to the bathroom to shower. Once she was out and showered, she pulled on her clothes, as well as her Motocross gear, and drove her bike to the track, having promised Dustin, Blake, and Hunter a race. Arriving at the track, she saw the three boys waiting near Tori's van, Tori and Shane themselves nearby.

"Hey! I'm here!" jac called as she got close, stopping her bike next to the van and hoping off.

"Finally! We can get this race started!" Dustin exclaimed, pulling on his helmet.

Jac rolled her eyes and turned to Tori. "Tor, at 11:55, signal me, and turn the radio to 107.7 on FM." She said.

The blonde nodded. "Sure; may I ask why, though?" she asked.

Jac smirked and hopped on her bike, shaking her head. "Nope; it's a surprise," she said before slipping on her own helmet.

She and the three Motocross boys rode off to start their race, leaving Shane with Tori. "So, did you talk to Trini?" Shane asked once the four were out of sight.
