Captive
Chapter 13
Will’s POV
I nervously watch the comm panel, waiting for any word from my children.
They are on another mission and a very dangerous one at that. But they
are part of the ranger rebellion, as we all are. No longer do rangers wear
multi-colored costumes and flashy helmets. And rangers are much more
numerous in numbers these days. Eltar has at least 100 teams of rangers,
each with five members. It is similar on KO-35, Triforia, and Edenoi.
Ranger uniforms these days are all black, except with colored lining
reflecting a ranger color. Each also has a diagonal strip across the torso of
the uniform in their color. They are form fitting like spandex, only not as
shiny and complete with a silver utility belt for holding weapons and gear.
Each ranger is equipped with two blasters, an extending cable, and a
number of other assets. Also, they have the ability to call on various
weapons at any time, as we used to in our ranger days.
Time has been good to Katherine and I, as it has to most of us who have
held ranger powers.
My daughter has grown up to be very beautiful like her mother. She is a
beautiful dancer, gymnast, and an excellent fighter. She has long, wavy,
sandy blonde hair and my green eyes. Only her eyes are a much brighter
green than mine and are nearly emerald in color. I’ve heard many people
tell me that my children’s eyes are the first thing they notice about them.
Aside from my hair and eyes, Larisa looks much like her mother inheriting
her facial features and beautiful smile. She is petite like her mother, but
shorter than all of us standing at 5'5, where as her mother is 5'8. Larisa’s
uniform is striped in pink.
My son, unlike is sister, is very tall. He is 6'2, which is two inches taller than
I am. His thick, crop of sandy blonde hair is a lot like mine. He is starting to
let it grow long in back and often has to hide from his mother and the
scissors. He inherited a lot of his looks from both of us as well, giving him
unique, yet very handsome facial features. I often tease him, telling him
that his smile makes girls fall all around him and it does. He inherited his
mother’s sapphire eyes, though his are a darker cobalt blue. Startling in
their unique color, but beautiful. He has a lean muscular build now, though
he had been a little lanky in his early teen years. Luke is an exceptional
fighter, far surpassing any of his teachers. He also takes after me in the
area of technology. His sister excels in arts and dancing, but he excels in
building and fixing things, as well as piloting. There hasn’t been a ship yet
that my son has not been able to pilot. Luke’s uniform is striped in red.
Unfortunately, because of his exceptional skills, he can tend to be a little
arrogant. And very shy around girls, like I used to be. Larisa doesn’t share
her brother’s arrogance, but she can be confrontational and argumentative.
She always has to have the last word...much like her mother at times. I just
hope the mission is going well and they get back soon...

I peeked around the corner and gazed into the empty hallway. So far, no
one has spotted us and they aren’t aware of our infiltration onto their
imperial vessel. I slowly creep along the hallways, hoping not to run into
any droids. I clutched the blaster at my side though, ready to turn any in to
spare parts if I needed to. I slip into the control room where two android
soldiers command this particular deck on the ship. They spot me, but I
make quick work of them, delivering two flying side kicks aimed at their
heads. But to make sure they stay put, I levitate a large bench and hurl it at
them, effectively pinning them against the wall. My fingers fly over the
console and I place a small, silver, circular disc into a small slot designated
for it and wait. I suddenly hear a small blip in my ear piece and I press it.
“What is it?” I asked.
“Luke, where are you?” my twin’s anxious voice asked.
“In the control room on deck ten, why?” I answered.
“Because there’s an awful lot of activity up here on eleven. I think there
might be some kind of security trip in that room and I think you’re about to
have company,” she replied.
“Okay, I’ve almost got the data. Meet me in the shuttle bay,” I told her.
“Okay, be careful,” she replied.
“You too,” I answered back, as the disc ejected itself. I smirk and place in
its case and secure it in my pocket.
“Freeze rebel scum!” I hear, as I turn to see a blaster pointed at me by a
soldier. I smirk again.
“Behind you,” I pointed. The soldier fell for it and received a devastating
crossing kick to the face from my sister. I perform an aerial flip over the
heads of several other soldiers and join my sister in a run.
“I told you to wait for me in the shuttle bay,” I told her.
“Your welcome,” she shot back, as we both dodge several laser blasts. We
turn back and counter with our own blasts, effectively taking out our targets
before we continue on our way. We found our way to the shuttle bay and
hop into the small two-person fighter pilot. I punch the accelerator and
we successfully escape . Once we are clear I switch on the cloak and
readied us for hyperspace.
~*~
We arrived back to our cruiser an hour later. Dad locked onto us and pulled
us in for docking. We disembarked and made our way to the bridge, where
our parents and friends were waiting for us. I smiled, as the rest of my
team welcomed us back. I shared a handshake with my best friends Steve
Desantos and Brian Park. Steve’s uniform was striped in blue and Brian’s
in green. My sister hugged our other close friend Kendra Bradley. Her
uniform was striped in yellow. After that, we were both hugged tightly by
our worried, overprotective mother.
“Ah mom,” I complained, as she ruffled my hair and kissed my cheek.
“I was so worried about you two. Why do they always give you the really
dangerous missions?” mom asked, sending a slight glare at my dad.
“Luke volunteered us for this one,” Larisa answered. Mom rolled her eyes
in defeat.
“I got the data, but I have a feeling it’s not what we’re looking for,” I told
dad, as I handed him the disc.
“Even if it isn’t, any imperial information would be helpful,” dad replied, as
he patted my back. Dad slipped the disc into the computer and pulled up
the information gathered.
“Did you guys have any luck on that other ship?” I asked my friends.
“No, it turned out to be just an imperial cargo freighter. The disc we got
didn’t have anything interesting,” Brian replied.
“Unfortunately, there’s not much on this one either,” dad said.
“I’m starting to think they don’t keep any kind of important information on
any of their ships,” I replied.
“Oh they do, it’s just a matter of finding the right ship. Unfortunately, the
correct ship will probably be carrying people I would rather you guys not
meet,” dad replied.
“You mean like general Goldar?” I asked, intrigued. I had heard a lot about
Golda’s notorious fights with the rangers from my uncle Tommy and Jason.
“Yes, definitely Goldar,” dad replied.
“So what now?” I asked.
“Well, we’ve decided to go to KO-35 for a couple days for a visit. Things
are quiet and your mother and I figure we won’t get another chance for any
down time for a while,” dad replied. My ears perked and my heart soared at
the mention of KO-35. It had been five years since we had last been
there...and five years since I had seen her. I had fallen in love with her
despite our tender ages of fifteen and thirteen. Princess Amina or Ami, as
everyone called her, was the most beautiful girl I had ever seen. And now
she was probably even more beautiful at age eighteen. I clearly remember
her beautiful, soft features. She had the most beautiful chocolate colored
hair that spilled down her back in natural soft curls. And her warm brown
eyes could stare a hole right through me. She was the daughter of Andros
and Ashley. About a year after the comet hit earth, KO-35 had begged
Andros to be their king and leader. But Andros has always believed in
democracy, so at Ashley’s suggestion, a democratic monarchy was
established. The people elected Andros into office as their king, avoiding
the corruption that often came with monarchs that rule because of
bloodline.
~*flashback 5 years earlier~*
Luke’s POV
Our Eltarian shuttle docked in the shuttle bay at the Kerovian palace. I
marveled at the beauty of the planet. It was only one of few planets that
were still untouched by the empire. Eltar was also one, but it was a
mountainous rocky planet, whereas KO-35 was lush and green with lots of
water. Eltar had a some forests and plains and a few bodies of water, but
nothing like KO-35. We disembarked and found three people waiting for
us. I was anxious to meet the king of KO-35. Dad had told me a lot about
the red Astro ranger. I recognized the man and woman from pictures I had
seen in the ranger archives. But I was captivated by the petite girl who was
probably a little younger than me. She was beautiful. Chocolate-colored
curls spilled down her back and her warm chestnut eyes danced with life.
She smiled at me and I was convinced now that she was indeed an angel. I
carefully hid the blush that was threatening to creep onto my face. My dad
shook hands with Andros.
“It’s good to see you Andros,” dad said.
“It’s good to see you too Will,” he replied. My mother hugged Ashley.
“It’s been too long Ashley,” mom said.
“I know, it’s so good to see you Kat,” she replied.
“This is our daughter Amina,” Andros said.
“Please, call me Ami,” she replied.
‘Ami’ the name rang through my head.
“It’s nice to meet you Ami. These are our twins. Luke and Larisa,” mom
replied. I snapped out of my trance and politely acknowledged her.
Ami’s POV
My heart was pounding in my chest, as he flashed me a smile. He was so
gorgeous and I felt like melting under his cobalt stare and dazzling smile. I
came to my senses, as I heard my father say my name.
“Ami, why don’t you show Luke and Larisa around the palace,” he
suggested.
“All right,” I replied.
“Risa, you coming?” he asked his sister. Her emerald eyes sparkled with
mischievousness and Luke gave her a weary look.
“Actually, mom asked me to help her with something. You two go ahead
and I’ll join you in a while,” she replied. Luke flashed her a disbelieving look
like he didn’t believer her, but didn’t say anything. I turned to him and found
that he was already looking at me. I knew I was probably blushing, but I
couldn’t help it under his gaze.
“The palace is pretty boring, but I could show you the lake and the
waterfalls behind the palace,” I suggested.
“That sounds great,” he replied with another smile. She led us out onto a
balcony that overlooked a beautiful lake. The view was awe-inspiring. I had
seen a few places like this that my parents had replicated on the holodecks
when we had family outings. But the real thing was so much more
amazing.
“It’s beautiful,” I told her.
“Yeah, I come out here all the time. It’s so peaceful, unlike the galaxy,” she
replied a bit sadly.
“Yes, but it won’t always be like that,” I replied.
“I’m not sure. This is the only way we’ve ever know it to be. Things won’t
just go back to the way there were before,” she replied.
“No, they’ll never be the way they were. But I’m going to change it. I’m
going to defeat the empire someday. I will become a ranger when I turn
sixteen and then I can fight for freedom like my parents,” I replied.
“I want to become a ranger too, though I have a few more years until I turn
sixteen,” she replied.
“Who knows, maybe we’ll free the galaxy together,” I replied.
“I hope so,” she replied.
End flashback
‘Those four days we spent on KO-35 were some of the happiest I had ever
had. I can’t wait to see Ami again. I bet she’s even more beautiful now,’ I
thought, as dad brought us out of hyperspace. We all strapped in, as he
prepared for landing.’
“Unknown vessel, identify yourself,” an accented voice said over the
comm.
“This is Commander Will Cranston requesting clearance for landing,” dad
replied.
“It’s great to hear from you Will. Andros is expecting you. He’ll be waiting
on landing platform 27,” Carlos replied.
“Thanks Carlos,” dad replied. Dad and I began the landing sequence and
soon we were grounded. We unloaded and were met by the worried faces
of Andros and Ashley.
“Andros, what’s wrong?” dad asked.
“We just received some bad news. Ami was returning from a diplomatic
mission to one of the neutral planets in the outer rim when her ship was
captured by an imperial vessel,” Andros’ voice cracked. Mom hugged
Ashley, who could no longer keep her composure.
My blood boiled and the strong feelings that roared inside me were a bit
surprising. Ami is a good friend, but I haven’t seen her in five years, yet
these feelings are so strong. I knew that I would need to sort out my
feelings for her and consider what they mean. But first, I have to rescue
her.
“Dad, can you have her ship’s last know coordinates relayed to our ship?” I
asked. Dad looked into my eyes, silently telling me to be careful.
“Sure son,” he replied.
“Sir, I promise that I’ll bring her home,” I said respectively to her father.
“I’m coming with you Luke,” my sister told me.
“Please be careful,” mom said, as she and dad hugged us.
“We will, don’t worry mom,” I replied, knowing that she would anyway.
Larisa and I strapped in and took off. The coordinates were relayed to us
and a homing beacon signal was also relayed to us. We were lucky that
the beacon was active and now it wouldn’t take too long to locate her
captors’ ship. I set the coordinates and we entered hyperspace. One thing
is certain, if anybody hurts her...they’re going to pay...
AN: Hope you enjoyed it! In the next chapter, Luke and Larisa infiltrate an
imperial vessel to find Ami. Will they find her and be able to escape? And
will Luke admit to himself and Ami that he loves her? And how does Ami
feel? All this and more in the next chapter...coming soon!
