estinoseSummary: Ashley gets ready for what is perhaps the last battle she'll ever fight. (Destruction... and after storyline)
Disclaimer: None of the characters belong to me, but instead to Saban. This takes place during "Countdown to Destruction, part 2" (written by Judd Lynn), part of a series detailing the events and aftermath of the two-parter.
This is the sixth of the "Destruction... and after" series of stories and was written November 28, 1998.

I'm so nervous. No performance on the soccer or football fields has been like this, although I was always worried about them on the time. Nor has any Ranger fight, really. I don't think we've been as overwhelmed by sheer numbers as we have in the last 24 hours. Actually, I think I only feel this way because Divatox's forces only attacked us that one final time before we lost the Turbo powers. They didn't have the population of Angel Grove there.
It must be tough on T.J. This is the second time we have almost only ourselves against a large amount of footsoldiers, and he's the leader this time again, Andros no doubt sneaking around the Dark Fortress as I look at it in the sky. But he'll do what he needs to be done, as will we all. If our deaths save our home planet in some way... well, that's what happens. It's what we're here for.
I can't believe that we're actually consider letting some of Angel Grove see who we are. I mean, I see the point that they might be willing to fight by our sides if they see that we, too, are mere humans, but still, what do we do if we win? I'm sure there's a reason why we have that rule in place for Earth's Rangers.
I must be strong, for my family, my friends, my city, country, and my world. For my universe, too, for we may be the only ones who can save that too. And it's all taking place here, where I grew up. I am not anymore Ashley Hammond, the little girl in love with fancy dreses, barbies and exercises, nor even the cheerleader I was before Tanya Sloan gave me the power. No, I am Ashley Hammond, Yellow Ranger of Earth, and this may be the most important day of my life.
Astronema has come back now. Andros must not have encountered her yet, or maybe he's dead, but I can't think of that now. Free time is over. It's time for the show.
