Chapter 1: Taking Love For Granted?
The last day of September this year was the busiest and also the most anticipated, for the renowned Angel Girls Club was announcing their newest members on the bulletin board! What was better was that if the members had boyfriends, then the boys joined in automatically. As soon as they read it, Kimberly and Aisha beamed in excitement. They made it in and that meant that Rocky and Tommy could join them as well. But just as they were about to tell them the good news, Kim spotted a note next to her name. It read, 'Kimberly Only'. Kim frowned in confusion and annoyance (mostly annoyance), which did not escape her sharp friend.
"What's wrong?"
"For some reason, Veronica doesn't want Tommy to join." Kim answered with a steely edge in her voice. "But I'm going to find out."
Aisha nodded in agreement, also looking horribly miffed. Together, they walked over towards Veronica, who had a business suit on. She had tanned skin, long black hair, and dark brown eyes. She looked like a perfect angel, but both of the female Rangers knew that she was one of the meanest people on the planet. Today, that would all end, hopefully.
"Aisha, Kimberly, hello." She said in an disarming voice.
Aisha was about to return the greeting snidely, but Kim got to the point. "Why didn't Tommy make the club?"
"Tommy?" Veronica asked, confused. "Tommy who?"
"Tommy Oliver." Aisha chorused. "You know, the guy who always wears a white shirt all the time, the guy with long hair."
"Oh, him." Veronica almost hissed out the reply. "Well, let's say that he doesn't fit the criteria of what makes a perfect man. For example, a perfect man must always be at his girlfriend's side, must always wait upon her every whim and demand, and absolutely should never make her feel uncomfortable. In all this time that I have observed her, I have seen that he does not fit the criteria at all."
Kim blinked back in shock and anger. "Tommy may not seem like the perfect man to you," She growled. "But he's my kind of guy! Besides, if that were the case for a girl, then I'm doing it wrong."
"Please, Kimberly. Your own mother was in the Angel Girls Club. You're a legacy!" Veronica pointedly said. "And Tommy, well, he's just a nobody."
"I don't think that my mother would ever be a part of this terrible club," Kim continued. "And if this is how you're going to treat people and their significant others in this club, then I don't want to join this club!"
Aisha agreed, "Me neither."
So saying, they walked away together, leaving an angry Veronica fuming with her thoughts.
Although Aisha tried to get Kim's mind off the club, Kim still felt bad. Not about losing the club, mind you, but about Tommy and how he couldn't join. He still had the chains of regret still lingering about him and the whole Green Ranger fiasco, he didn't need someone else unintentionally rubbing his misdeeds in his face. He never talked about it at all and heck, he still went on life smiling and happy. But seeing his eyes cloud over a bit every time somebody brought up the evil Green Ranger bit, innocently or not, still hit her. The fact that he still wore the color (with limitations, might I add) like it was his price to pay.
"I still wonder who actually did this." (Warning: Purple Prose dead ahead.) His melodious voice rang out.
There he was, in all of his sweetly hot glory. Although he wasn't too muscular, it still showed that he'd been hitting the gym. His long brown hair, that splayed out at all sides, framed his neat, lean face. His brown eyes shined with vigor and energy and his thin lips frowned in concern and worry. Framing that body of his was a loose green T-shirt, baggy shorts, and white sneakers. True, he wasn't what Veronica wanted, but he was all she needed. Noticing her and Aisha, that frown grew into a full smile. Motioning the girls over there, his happiness melted Kim's anger away. Soon, they, along with Rocky, Billy, and Adam were laughing at the latest hijinks and mayhem.
"Hey, so did you get into that club that you girls talked about?" Rocky asked innocently.
At this, the girls froze and looked at each other. In an instant, the boys immediately knew that something was amiss and the girls weren't about to spill it. It took some time, but they got the real reason out of them. To their surprise, Tommy smiled and said that they could go to the club without him, he didn't mind. When Kim tried to protest, he merely smiled and tried to mask the sadness and hurt that he was feeling right now. But his friends shouldn't be bothered by this mishap. After all, they would be with him, club or not, because they loved him. Little did he know what was brewing on the moon.
"Did you hear that, my petite pestilence?" Lord Zedd cackled in delight.
"So the precious Green Ranger is left out of a club activity~?" Rita Repulsa purred. "Who knew that the day would come?"
"It gives me a great idea!" Lord Zedd snapped his fingers and instantly a phone appeared. Wasting no time at all, he dialed the number of his old friend, Contemno. Despite the boyish-sounding name, Contemno was a mistress of hatred and despair. What's more, Lord Zedd knew that she was looking for action, so what better way to burn off that boredom than give a certain ranger a real breakage in spirit? Pretty soon, she appeared before them, kneeling and giving her respect. She was beautiful in a hideously fascinating way. Covered in black hair, she had red eyes, a long dress, and red high-heels.
"Hello, Master Zedd." She said in a soft-spoken voice. "How can I serve you?"
"I want you to incite a hatred against the Green Ranger." Rita shot out before Zedd could speak. "Make him feel despair, break his entire spirit, and when you have finished, I want him in here so that he can serve as a little, ah, servant to me and me only." Rita finished with a creepy blush growing on her face. Contemno raised an eyebrow but decided not to pry. She needed to get right to work and so thinking, she bowed to Rita and Zedd before heading towards Angel Grove. Zedd turned to his wife.
"Servant?" Zedd deadpanned.
"...I just want to put him in a cute little maid outfit so that I can take pictures for the album and..." Rita babbled before being cut off by Rito. Zedd just blinked.
In the dark of the night, Contemno gazed the area before spotting a sleeping figure. She peered inside the bedroom window and grinned. So, this was her target for the mission: a cute guy sleeping in his bed. Well, as she said time and time again, the cute ones are always the most pleasurable in spirit breaking. So she brushed a strand of hair from his face and gently plucked a hair from his head. Then, she flashed back outside and, concentrating on her victim, she unleashed a hate spell all across Angel Grove.
"It's just the right amount of subtle and despair that I want." She whispered. "It'll be an enjoyable time before my mission is complete." So saying, she vanished.
Author's Notes: So, yeah, I changed things up a stretch just so the story is a bit more believable. Don't worry about Bulk and Skull, they'll be in the next chapter! And will Tommy ever get through this ordeal? Well, the answer is yes, but he will endure a ton of hardships. Poor guy. :(
Rate, review, and critique! I'm open to criticism!
