"I still cannot believe you have had time to do all this...not without Billy knowing" Jason said shaking his head in disbelief.

Skye smiled. "I don't sleep much..dream yes, but sleep no, so I usually have nearly four to six hours each night uninterrupted flow of thought from Billy."

He fixed Jason with a suddenly intense stare "This knowledge must not be lost. You understand why I have done this?" He placed everything back in the drawer without waiting for a replyJulia closed her eyes. "The betrayal must have been awful," she murmured. Then she opened her eyes and cocked an eyebrow at Blue Trooper. "What happened on the record?"
          "On the record, Shadowborg has captured the Chromium Gold Beetleborg and released a look-alike monster in his place. We'd appreciate it if you'd let that get out." Justin looked momentarily sheepish. "Yeah," he admitted. "We didn't realize it could happen until yesterday, when Andy and Lee's connection to the Power wasn't as strong as their counterparts'. We thought that was strange, since it was supposed to be stronger in our dimension, but then it occurred to me that their counterparts never shared the Power. There's only one Astro team in JT's dimension, not two."

Andros was silent at that, and Ashley spoke up quickly. "There weren't any Psycho Rangers in his dimension?"

"From what JT says, Dark Spectre has other uses for his power in their dimension." Justin frowned for the first time. "They're at war there, you know. The Turbo Rangers left Earth to reinforce Eltare before it fell, but they lost their powers in the battle, same as we did. I don't know what happened to Earth."

This time, it was Ashley who had no answer. When the quiet stretched out, though, she forced herself to focus on the rest of Justin's explanation. "But you said 'their counterparts'--we must have met up with Andros there too, right?"

          Julia pretended to look affronted. "You want me, a member of the press, to lie? I work for Channel 6, not Hard Copy."
          "Well, just say that's what you were told. Enough damage has been done to his reputation already."
          Julia nodded. "All right, you have a point. You all be careful, now. Earth needs you."
          "We will. You be careful too." Then in a flash of light and circuitry, Blue Trooper disappeared.

"I think so." Jason said his mind whirling with shock. If there was one thing that going to the Peace Summit had taught him was that often it was knowlege that was the key to peace, and that ignorance bred war. The information on those CD's could have major implications. He wanted to ask Skye for more details but the artist had already turned to leave.
