Storm looked up at Marla. "Can you please see to the wounds on Gr...Amara."
Storm was still dealing with the wounds on Michelle to really see to Amara yet. "Firebolt, help Lord Helios."
Both Mina and Amy seemed to be alright but just a little weakened as they had used their powers to hide their power signatures.
"Am I glad to see you guys," Mina moaned. "We tried to protect Rini... but... " Mina couldn't say anything more. But it was clear Queen Rini had been taken captive.
"We've been trying to hold off the palace as long as possible," Amy said tiredly. "And so far we have been successful, though we have been separated."

Marla nodded,and gently started wrapping Amara's ankle up.
Firebolt went over to Helios."Where are you hurt,Lord Helios?" the young fire scout said.
"Everything's going to be okay," Trax assured."Tropico-take Grandma Mina and Grandma Amy to the tunnels. Windshear and Seaspray-keep looking while I take these guards to the tunnels."
Windshear and Seaspray nodded,and left.
Tropico and Trax took the 2 guards and 2 elder women to the tunnels.

Helios looked at the fire scout. "I think my arm may be broken. I haven't been able to move it in a couple days." He took a better look at her. "Carla, you are so much like your grandmother, it's unreal."
Mina and Amy were amazed in how Trax was taking everything. Her mother was missing and she was doing a good job in hiding her sadness about it.
"What happened to you guys?" asked Amy as she was being helped by Seaspray.

Carla thanked him and began tending to his arm as Retro helped her.
Seaspray told Amy and Lita all that happened,and both elders were surprised.They also started seeing Trax's resolve start to crumble.
They got to the tunnels. " Oh good-you've found Grandma Amy and Grandma Mina!" Firebolt said.
Trax nodded." Excuse me....I need to go do something..."Trax said,leaving. The young train scout went to the surface,unaware that Michelle was follwing her.
"This is getting to be too much...we're finding everyone except the royals...." Trax said,making a fist and punching a wall.
Trax then started picking up handfuls of dirt and throwing them at a tree. The train scout did this until she had gotten rid of all her frustration. The young train scout felt a hand on her shoulder,and turned to see Michelle standing there.
"Grandma Michelle! How much of my display did you witness?" Trax asked.

"All of it my dear," Michelle was wounded but she was still able to walk. "Rosa, Your parents and grandparents are strong willed and you know that." Michelle wrapped her arms around Trax. "You don't have to stay strong just because you're leader. You are hurting and we all can see that."
When Trax left, Storm gave a sad expression, which Amara noted.

"I'm just so frustrated,Grandma Michelle," Trax said,a tear running down her face." I don't know if the royals are okay or not.."
Michelle smiled kindly and wiped Trax's tear away. " Oh,I'm sure they;re okay,dear.You just have to have faith." the sea elder said in a soft voice.
Trax sighed and started confiding in Michelle.
" I hope Trax will be okay..." Firebolt said as Seaspray and Windshear left to try to find others." I think I should go after her."
Amara shook her head and stopped Firebolt. '"Sometimes people just need to be alone to work out frustrations." Amara said as her ankle was being bandaged.
" Are you sure,Grandpa Amara?" Firebolt asked,and Amara nodded. "Just give Trax some time alone to work things out on her own. I know when I was young,there were times I wanted to be left alone to sort things out."
" I guess you're right." Firebolt said to the wind elder.

"Grandpa Amara," Fantasia said. "I know this wasn't right but we brought the Freelancers here to fight Valkal."
Mina and Amy looked up to see the young scouts.
"Freelancers?!" blurted Mina.

"Why did you do that?" Amara asked,and Firebolt told her.
"Well,as long as they're returned to the very exact time they came from,then the timeline will not be affected," Amara said. "There's also a very good chance that they won't remember what happened once they return to their own time.
Trax got through talking to Michelle. "Thanks for letting me vent,Grandma Michelle." Trax said,hugging the sea elder.

"Besides with the time key, couldn't that help to erase their memories?" asked Fantasia.
"Grandpa Amara," Storm interrupted, when Amara was all bandaged up. "Who knows maybe this is how you guys were trained by them. Maybe they knew what was to come and trained you guys to better train us for this moment in time."
Michelle weakly smiled. "You're welcome, dear. That is what Grandmothers are for. And you may not be my Granddaughter by blood, but you are in every other way. Perhaps we should rejoin the others before we are discovered. Valkal is planning another offensive. Question is when."

Amara thought. "It could be,Storm." Amara said.
Trax nodded and helped Michelle back to the tunnels. The train scout helped Michelle sit by Amara.
"Is Trax okay,dear?" Amara asked. Michelle nodded and told her wife everything that went on.
Amara put her arm around Michelle's shoulders. We've been through so much over the past few decades,dear...battles...watching the children and grandchildren being born...Crystal Tokyo being formed..." Amara said.
" I know,dear..." Michelle replied as Windsheae and Seaspray came back with Rini and Aaron.
" Mom! Dad!" Trax said,running up and hugging her parents.

"Daughter!" Rini cried for joy as she rushed over to her only daughter hugging her tightly.
Storm looked up and gave shed a few tears of joy. Her girlfriend had found her parents.
"Rini! Aaron!" shouted the elders in the room. "You're ok."
"Yes, but Mom and Dad were taken. Valkal thinks they have the silver crystal." Rini looked at the Freelancers. "Am I seeing ghosts?"

Firebolt explained everything about the Freelancers to Rini and Aaron.
"I hope they can defeat Valkal-she's really powerful." Rini said.
"With teamwork,we can!" Trax said as the other scouts came,saying they couldn;t find Grandma Raye or Grandma Trista anywhere.
"That means they must be held captive along with my grandparents," Trax said. "Freelancers,Scouts-let's go!"
The Freelancers nodded and stood up as their guardian animals joined them.
"Be careful,Scouts!" Mina said,remembering how her old guardain Artemis used to say that all the time.

Fantasia turned to her grandmother. "We will Grandma. Father. I will find mother and bring her back to us, safely."
Storm gave her wishes as well to the elders. She was really worried for her grandmother and even her parents too.

The young scouts and the Freelancers moved out and began searching the premises.They soon came upon Valkal in the throne room,sitting on Rini's throne.

Storm rested a hand on her girlfriend to make sure her girlfriend doesn't do anything rash. Over in one corner, resting in cages lifted high above were the captives, which were the rest of the elders and even the mothers of the young scouts.
"We have to figure out a way to distract Valkal and get the others down," said Starburst.
"Firebolt," said Forest. "Is that really the same woman you saw in your fire reading?"
