Zach

I woke up and found some clothes next to the bed, they weren't fancy but at least I got to take off this prison drab. I walked into the next room and saw a girl about my age sitting on the ground. She must have had fire as a power because she had a ring of flame spinning around her body. She must have heard me walking because it dissipated.

"Hello," She said. "My name's Jessica. Kindra didn't mention your name so I don't know it."

I offered my hand, "Zach, Kindra talked about having friends on the outside, once. Then again I only just met her when they put her in solitary for throwing Alex into the middle of a riot. The little rat is lucky he got out alive."

Jessica snickered, "Well Kindra is resting, she's had a rough year."

I nodded, "Me too. That place is, ruthless." I turned and rubbed my head. "Well anyways what would you like for me to do?"

"You're planning on staying with us?" She looked skeptical. "Fine, but..." She stopped as two people walked in the door. She motioned for me to be quite.

I was poised, ready to act. The intruders were two women but I would never underestimate women after seeing what Cali could do.

Suddenly Jessica stood up, "Rachel? Rain? It's so good to see you!" She ran over and they did a group hug. "I'm sorry about not being here this past year Marty took us to the past and didn't come back to the right time."

Rachel smiled, "I knew I sensed others out here. Where is Marty and Daila? Not to mention the others."

Jessica's face drooped, "I think Marty and Daila are dead. Mike and Kim, we don't really know." She paused and then explained, "They got left behind, at least two hundred years ago."

Rachel shrugged, "Assuming they hid, they could still be around."

Jessica shook her head, "Probably not, we were being attack he brought us back."

I could see, the one I thought was Rachel eying me the entire time, now she finally said, "Who is he?"

"He helped Kindra escape from that prison," Jessica smirked. "Good news right?"

Rachel's face lit up, "Where is she?"

"There is something you should know first Rachel," Jessica warned.

"I don't care, where is she?" Rachel insisted.

Kindra walked out of the bedroom she had been in and asked, "What's all the racket about?" She then noticed Rachel, "Momma?" Kindra ran over and nearly tackled Rachel.

Rachel didn't know what to say. Kindra spoke first, "I know, I know, I grew up fast even for one of us but the times demanded it."

Rachel finally smiled again and I felt like an extra wheel. Rachel walked over to me and gave me a hug, "Thanks for helping my daughter out of prison."

"Zach," I provided for her and squirmed out of her hug. "It wasn't completely selfless. I got out because of it as well."

Rachel shrugged, "True. Now then let's figure out what do to next."
