Sub-setting: Takes place three days after Tommy get's the letter; he did not go skiing with Kat and Billy

Tommy lay on his bed, one arm behind his head, the other holding a letter. His eyes scanned the words over and over again, as though they would change each time. But he knew that they wouldn't. The words were there and wouldn't change no matter how much he wished it. As he looked at it again, he couldn't believe what he was reading;

…I've met someone else…in some ways you're like a brother…

Kim had broken up with him. She had gone and fell in love with someone else, someone that wasn't him. He got the letter three days ago, and even now, he still couldn't understand. He had been hurt and confused, and though he was still in the confuse stage a bit, he was now firmly planted in the anger stage and he welcomed it. Anger was better than sadness. His anger seemed to be focused on Kim, the others and Coach Schmidt. He was angry at Kim for leaving, and for breaking up with him; he was angry at the others for the looks of pity that they gave him, for the way they had acted around him ever since he got the blasted letter. Out of the team though, he was most angry at Kat. He knew what her idea was when she suggested that they go skiing, 'Seriously, my girl just broke up with me, the last thing I want is to be surrounded by couples. What the hell was she thinking?' he sighed as he placed the letter on his chest. He might be forgetful and sometimes dense, but he wasn't so bad that he couldn't figure out that the Australian blonde had feelings for him. From the moment she joined the team, Kat was always trying to be where he was. She would always touch him or would prefer to sit next to him rather than any other team member. At first he had thought that she was nervous about being around everyone and had clung to him because they were both used by Rita, but now he knew better. Even though it was harsh and mean, it was also the truth, he knew that Kat thought that she could take Kim's place on the team and from the way he knew she felt about him, she was trying to replace her in his life as well.

'I really hope she gets over this crush soon, because she's not my type. She's too in your face, and a bit too clingy for me.' Forcing his thoughts from Kat, he focused on the last person he was angry at. Coach Schmidt.

'I regret the day that man showed up in town," he sighed angrily, 'He's the reason Kim broke up with me. If he hadn't come here, then Kim never would've have left and I wouldn't have lost her.'

From the moment he saw the man looking at Kim that day in the youth center, when recognition had seeped in about who he was, he knew what was about to happen. He knew what the man was there for and in that moment he had felt fear. He had wanted to shove him out of the center and then pretend that he was never there. When Kim had gotten the offer, even though he knew that it was her dream and was happy for her, he couldn't help but wish she didn't have to go. And now he hated Schmidt even more. Letting out another angry sigh, he let his eyes roam the letter once more, before getting up and dropping it on the bed. He went and stood in front of the window, bracing his hands on the glass. He saw that it was raining and was inwardly pleased that weather matched his mood. His eyes followed the drops as they splattered on the glass before sliding down. After a while, he became aware of someone standing behind him, and immediately he knew who it was. The person didn't make any noise, but by the way his heart beat faster, his palms grew slightly damp and the scent of a strawberry shampoo that teased his senses, they didn't have to. There was only one person that had that scent and could cause such a reaction in him. He closed his eyes and refused to turn around, knowing that they would speak anyways. He didn't have to wait long. His thoughts on who it was were confirmed when he heard his name,

"Hello Tommy."

…

The young woman paced her room almost reverently. She would stop for a few seconds, before resuming her actions. Her thoughts were going over the last few days and the decision that she had made. Kimberly Hart, seventeen years old, former power ranger and now Olympic Trainee, was agitated. She had broken up with her boyfriend of almost three years, Tommy Oliver, and she regretted it ever since. She had told him that she had met someone else, which was the furthest thing from the truth. She never met anyone else; the whole letter was a lie. The only problem is, Tommy didn't know that.

'Of course he doesn't know that. God Kim, you told him you met someone else. You demeaned your relationship by saying he was like your brother. Your brother!' she sighed. 'What am I going to do?' Her gaze fell on the bracelet lying on her bedside table; only it wasn't a bracelet but rather, the communicator that Billy had made for her. 'There's only one thing left to do.' She walked over to it and picked it up. Her fingers played as she thought on what she was about to do, 'Come on Kim, you can do this. Besides, you owe him an explanation.' With that thought, she pressed one of the buttons on the side. "Zordon do you read me?"

"Yes Kimberly, I do," she heard, "What can I do for you?"

"I was wondering if I could ask a favor?"

"What is it?"

She took a deep breath, "I assume you know about the letter?"

"Yes I do," he replied.

"Well I was wondering if you could teleport me to Tommy's. I need to talk to him, to explain some things."

"As you wish my young crane."

"Thank you Zordon."

"No problem," he said, "Prepare for teleportation."

No sooner had the words left his mouth, did she feel the familiar sensation of the teleportation beam. When she opened her eyes, she saw that she was in Tommy's room. She looked around until she spotted him standing in front of the window. She knew that he knew that she was standing behind him, though he made no attempt to move. She stared at him for a few more minutes before speaking, "Hello Tommy."
