Dr. Oliver's POV

I walk out of the teacher's lounge with a stack of graded papers as well as a pretest I made up for the final to help relieve some of the stress the students may feel during this time. As I enter my classroom, Conner, Ethan, and Trent walk up to me.

"Kira just told us that Miss May knows who we are, is that true Dr. O?" Trent asks.

"Yes, Trent, Miss May does know we are the Power Rangers," I say.

"Does Tracy know?" Ethan asks.

"No, but she will find out at the lab after school," I reply.

"We could just text her," Conner suggests.

"Bad idea Conner," Ethan says.

"Yeah, unless you want to have your phone confiscated," Trent adds.

"You three are late for your next class, so get going. We'll take more after school," I say.

Tracy's POV

I notice that I've missed about ten minutes of PreCalcus class, but I don't mind since that is my least favorite class. I'm surprised that we had to wait as long as we did in the ER, considering there was only one other person there beside Edmund and me in the waiting room. My cousin bought me some lunch before dropping me back off at school. I signed back in and stopped by my locker to get what I needed then go to Mr. Johnson's PreCalculus class. I apologize for interrupting the lesson as I walk into the room, handing my Doctor's note to Mr. Johnson.

"It's fine, Miss Burlew, I'm glad you are alright, please take your seat," Mr. Johnson says.

"He isn't the only one who is happy that you're okay," Mike whispers, and he puts his hand on mine after I sit down.

"Thanks," I whisper back.

"Miss Burlew, you and Mr. Andrews can continue your lovefest after class," Mr. Johnson says.

Mike quickly takes his hand away, and we turn to face the front of the room.

"Sorry, sir," We say in unison.

Ten minutes later, Mr. Johnson reminds us about our final project that is worth 1/3 of our grade for the class. He also gently drills home into all the senior students in his class that they only have two weeks left to turn in their projects because our last day is fast approaching.

"Can we partner up for the project?" Mike asks.

"Yes, but only teams of two," Mr. Johnson says.

I couldn't put my finger on it why I can't get the thought that Mike may break up with me before graduation ring in my brain when I feel him place his hand on mine again. I look over at him and force a smile when he asks me to be his partner for the final project. I nod, and he pushes his desk over, then we get to work brainstorming ideas. When the bell rings, I start to gather my things, but Mike takes them out of my hands, placing them on top of his stack of supplies.

"Mike, you don't have to do that," I say.

"I know, but I want to," Mike smiles as we walk out of the room.

After we got everything I needed for English from my locker, Mike and I go to his. He grabs a few items, and we walk to Miss Drew's English Class. I feel him gently squeeze my hand like he picked up on my nervousness somehow.

"Hey, angel, are you still worried about your surgery tomorrow," Mike asks.

"Yes, and there is something else I'm scared about, too, and I'm not sure if I should believe what Cassidy said earlier," I admit, slowly looking down at my feet.

I feel Mike let go of my hand then put his index finger under my chin. He lifts my head till we lock eyes.

"What did Cassidy say?" Mike asks.

"That she was surprised that we stayed together as long as we have." I reply as I feel tears build up in my eyes, " She also said that the chance of us breaking up after Graduation is like 97%," I continue as a few tears begin to roll down my cheek.

"I don't know where Cassidy found that information, but I'm sure it was on Wikipedia," Mike says as he kisses me on the cheek."Even though I haven't picked out a college yet, but no matter where I'm going, I won't break up with you," Mike continues as he backs away.

The warning bell rings, so I do my best to quickly regain my composure before we sprint down the hall to make class on time.

Normal POV

Tracy is a little stressed out over her final paper she has to write for English class the topic she got was. Do children learn better in boys-only and girls-only schools? She and Mike head outside to meet up with the others next to Dr. Oliver's jeep. She gasps seeing Circuit perched on Miss May's shoulder

"Why is Miss May here? What exactly happened while I was in the ER?" Tracy asks.

"Not to mention, isn't it dangerous for Circuit to be here too, considering none of the students at this school are smart enough to make a robot that advanced," Mike adds.

"Hey," Ethan snaps.

"Ethan, you know Mike doesn't doubt your intelligence in any way, but we don't even have the technology to build anything like that in this time, what about the whole time stream being affected if too many people know about the future," Tracy adds.

"Calm down, you two, he's only been here for like two minutes," Wes says as he walks up to the group.

"Tracy, I promise to fill you in once we get to the lab," Tommy says.

"Can you at least tell me what happened to Amber, I never saw her once I got back?" Tracy asks.

"Elsa showed up and filled Amber's brain with false memories," Mike says.

"I'm sorry everyone, I never should have tried so hard to get Amber to remember who she was," Tracy sighs.

"Tracy, please, stop apologizing. You had zero control over happened today," Mike says as he put his arm around her before kissing her on the cheek.

"Mike is right. Someone was bound to figure out our identities sooner or later," Ethan says.

"Dr. Oliver and I are going over to the school board to discuss what happened with Principal Randal," Miss May says.

Little did the rangers know Mesogog is putting his new plan into action. Two ants he genetically modified walks over to Mike and Tracy. They bit the duo on the ankle. The fast-acting poison rushes through their veins.

"Rangers, my scanner is picking up a strange energy signature moving towards those bushes," Circuit says.

"Circuit, what are you talking about, I think your scanner is faulty. It was just a couple of ants," Ethan says as he runs over to the bush spotting two ants going into an anthill.

"Yeah, there are several anthills all around campus," Miss May adds.

Ethan quickly turns around after hearing a thump as Mike collapses, hitting his head on the passenger side door. He sees Wes crouched down, holding an unconscious Tracy in his arms.
