Just Jill- Sorry that I didn't make it clear.

Before that part of the story began, Ashley had already given birth. That's why I said that Saoirse was Bevan's older sister. They only had two children, Saoirse Kara Hammond and Bevan Gawaine Hammond. Aoife was just a name that they considered.

Saoirse is pronounced SEER sha, sometimes SAYR sha. Aoife is pronounced Eefa.

AH/AY- Glad you liked it. Sorry it wasn't soon… :-(

Phantom Rogue- Thankies! Soz that it wasn't soon, and what would be the point (beside adorable stripey babies) in making Ashley give birth if Andros didn't get his hand crushed?

GinaStar- Glad you liked it.

Slytherin-Angel44- Once again, sorry it wasn't soon. I'm glad you thought they were cute.

Sakura-angel113- Thanks :-D

Sorry it's short and kind of pathetic, but I think I'm all out of inspiration for this fic. This is the final chapter.

Ashley smiled at her two sleeping children as night fell upon the palace. Although a few cities and several country houses were still to be rebuilt, almost the entire planet had been restored. Saoirse and Bevan were almost three years old, and the light of the castle. Their many cousins, no matter how distantly related, were as close to the two as if they were siblings. Even Carlos and Catalina's children, who were not at all related to them, were close.

How different everything was to that lonely night so long ago, when Ashley had lost herself in her memories. Since then, she had become an official princess and heir of Madre, as well as defeated one of the greatest evils of all time.

She had fallen in love with Andros, and they had discovered that they were soulmates. They had also discovered that Ashley was not infertile, as she had thought. That lesson was the biggest shock and joy that Ashley could have ever received. It had shocked her parents that the little girl they remembered from before they were enchanted/programmed was now a young woman with a fiancé and two children on the way. It saddened them that she wasn't able to stay in a room with them for long, due to old fear.

She had worked on it though, and although the Hammond family would never be as close as it was, they were gradually becoming the Hammond Family again, rather than a bunch of people who happened to be related. Other things had changed too, such as she now loved her hair, although she missed the contrast of the blonde hair to her skin. Due to a secondary bout of Mycenae, which had robbed her of her fertility for many years, her 'naturally' coloured hair had darkened from an average blonde to a light brown.

She was pleased that the purple stripes had remained, and that her son had inherited them, while her daughter had inherited Andros's own blonde and brown striped hair. TJ had joked about the reactions they'd get on earth, but he meant no harm. He and Cassie had a daughter already, called Aoife. They were expecting another child in the summer.

TJ had been shocked when he had come face to face with his biological father for the first time. The two corresponded regularly, although TJ had confided in Ashley that it was more for Ignacio's sake than his. Ignacio deserved to know his grandchildren, as he had lost his chance with his own children.

Cassie had learnt to develop her power to sense the future, and had known that she was going to go into labour about an hour before she did. She had confused the heck out of TJ when she had ordered him to get Penda, even though she hadn't even started contractions. Luckily he did as she asked, and Penda arrived just as Cassie's waters broke. It had been a quick labour, and little Aoife had entered the world in record time.

Andros was yet to reconcile with his own father, but he was a doting dad, and due to years of diplomatic experience, a great representative for Madre. He was the go-between for the Kerova system and Madre, an arrangement that suited everyone. He rarely had to leave Madre, he would just help both cultures understand and respect the other. Then, he would usually have to argue against teaching Saoirse and Bevan telekinesis when his father came on the line. The argument usually ended with "You've disappointed me Andros. You're leading them to wrong."

Andros had learnt to ignore him.

As for Zhane, he and Sabrina had just recently gotten married. They already had a son, and their daughter had been born three days after the wedding. Sean and Abigail were their names, much to Andros's amusement. He'd been expecting them to go all out with unusual names, like the ones they themselves had. Zhane had made a joke, saying that in their family, unusual names were normal, so his children were especially unique!

Catalina and Lee had shared a look, before bursting out laughing. When they both had calmed down, they told Zhane that it was very unusual to find someone with an 'unusual' name on the colony they had both lived in. Catalina was about as adventurous as it had got on the colony.

Carlos had wrapped an arm around his long time girl friend and made a joke about what they would name their kids. Catalina had declared that he would find out in seven months. Their son had been named by Justin, after another comic book. His name was Robin.

Lee and Justin remained firm friends, although Justin was a little uneasy about Lee's apparent immunity to violence and graphic material, and Lee was often intimidated by Justin's brains.

The other power rangers on earth had grown up, and they too had gotten engaged, married, a few had had kids. One had even gotten divorced (lesson for the day, don't ever get drunk in Vegas).

Earth had gradually adjusted to the fact that they were other planets out there, and the President of the United States had actually had the nerve to ask Madre if they had any thing worth trading, trying to play on their 'loyalty' to earth.

Emma had told him very politely but firmly that she would not allow her planet to become polluted and drained of all it's natural resources the way earth had. She did however know of alternative fuels that could be made from most rocks. They were hard to make admittedly, but it was better to million-year-old sand and water than fossil fuels. Especially at the rate that Global warming and Global dimming were occurring.

He had been gobsmacked, to say the least, and that had been the start of Emma's reputation as a tough negotiator, despite the fact that Ashley had been telling her what to say through the Rogue Gems. Rocky had been extremely proud of his wife and the mother of his three children. The triplets had surprised both of them. They were two boys and a girl who had been named Kaze, Tobihi, and the little princess, Heisui. Kaze meant wind in Japanese, Tobihi meant leaping flames, and Heisui meant calm water. It was now a standing joke that they needed a daughter, and they would have to name her Terra, or stand to something similar but in Japanese or Spanish.

So much had changed…. Ashley was now one person, instead of a body with many different personas in her head. Andros was a doting father and husband, carefree with his laugh and smile. Sabrina was a wonderful mother, and had proved to be a natural housewife, even by Madre standards. Luckily, woman could work on Madre, it was just discouraged until the children were old enough to go to school. Madre put a big value on family, and housewives were some of the most admired women around.

Zhane, still a joker, had changed his views on many things. He was happily married, and everyone knew that he'd rather shoot himself with the Super Silverizer than hurt Sabrina. Jeff and Aisha had gotten married, but their first child wasn't due until early winter. They were a wonderful couple, both on earth and Madre. There was no real need to hide their identities as rangers and royals, but they were both careful not to let their status interfere with their lives on earth. Jeff was now a partner in the family Company, and it was doing even better than ever!

Lee attended school on Madre with Justin, who had moved there with his father so he could get a grip on his new super brain. He'd been intelligent before, but now he was uncannily so. Scarily so.

Carlos had found a girl he loved, and who loved him back. The former soccer star was happy to be behind the scenes as head of security, while Catalina was head of the house. And the changes in Catalina Binx-Valaderte, the innocent yet scarred girl from Felix, were also evident. She was no longer afraid to absorb as much of another culture as she could, or to ask questions.

Adam, or Rana as he was now known affectionately, had a successful career as a policeman on earth. His wife, Tanya, was a doctor.

Alf had married a nice woman from KO-35, and kept in regular contact with all the rangers. Deca had met a nice man while travelling the Universe, seeing it through new eyes. They now had a child together, but we no longer a couple romantically. Young Melanite didn't care; they still loved her more than anything.

Yes, everything had changed. Although, unlike many stories, it was all for the better.
