They all met aboard the Megaship the first evening after they returned to Earth. Cassie wasn't too surprised - after all, there was such a thing as too much fame and too many shrieking fans, believe it or not.
And, of course, they were eating food from the synthetron again, not that she thought anybody *really* minded for once. A chance to eat a private dinner must have appealed to everyone else as it did to her. They could go back home later in the evening, and, in fact, they would be doing so, or at least all the Earth-born Rangers would be.
Cassie couldn't believe how much she'd missed her own bed in her own room. Her quarters on the Megaship hadn't been bad, just a bit utilitarian for her tastes, and there was always the problem of that upper portion of the bunk. It was nice to be able to get up to an actual sunrise and not worry about bumping the back of one's head. It was also nice to get back to her civilian clothing - while the uniform was nice, she preferred the variety of her own outfits.
"So, how was your first day back at school?" Karone asked. Cassie smiled a bit, thinking that it was awfully weird to have her ask that question. She was, after all, part of the reason that the team had missed so much schooling. Fighting monsters did take a toll on one's grades, especially if they were a bit on the shaky side to begin with. Still, Karone was just trying to be conversational and fit in.
"I hope things calm down a little bit," T.J. answered. "If half the school doesn't know that we're Rangers, they *will* know it by the time June rolls around."
"Yeah," Ashley added. "I mean, the only thing that's different about us is because a lot of people know that we're Rangers now. But everyone is so *curious*!"
"If something happens, we can always go back to KO-35," Zhane offered. "People know who we are there."
"I don't really want to leave unless I really have to," Carlos replied. "This is my home- I don't want to be driven off it!"
T.J. placed a hand on Carlos' arm. "We won't, unless it's a last resort."
"Let's hope it never comes to that," Carlos said, and Cassie agreed silently.
_Amen,_ she thought, although she'd never been religious. _Amen._
