A re-imagining of the entire season in Zeo as it enters Turbo, leading into passing of the torch now, as if they spoke about this.

Prologue: The Crane and her Falcon and the Ninjetti Reunion

The day Kimberly Hart had sent the letter that would not only break her heart, but her boy-friends' Tommy Oliver, she had to think through how to tell Tommy that even though they weren't together anymore that they would always be one, because of their animal spirits, hers and Tommy's, as well as her Ninjetti team, Adam Park, Billy Cranston, Rocky Desantos and Aisha Campbell, their spirit animals had kept their connection strong, though they were separated, and now they were helping her as they guided her actions as she wrote the letter, helping her to pick out the right words.

While she was writing it she felt a jolt in her heart every few minutes, till she had to stop, because she was crying her heart out, 'This is the right thing to do, why do I feel like it's tearing out my heart to do this?' she asked softly in her mind and then heard the voice of her Crane, Shalimar. 'Our bonds are soul bonded now Kim, it's the right thing to do, and it's alright to let it out as you do it, we belong to him, no matter what.' she said and Kim nodded. "Should I rewrite this, or send the paper looking like this?" she asked her and Shalimar answered her gently as she gave a few tips to her.

"Send it like this, to let the others know this was no light hearted decision, my other suggestion is changing the wording, to put hidden meanings into it, you'll always see him as a friend, you were friends before you became mated, you see you him as a brother, direct translation is get your twin involved as quickly as you can, and to top off the cake use your nickname and put 'Your' in front of it, to make it clear you belong to him, if necessary to fix the bonds of the Ninjetti, because they will take it the wrong way."

'Also use their nicknames when you tell him to take care of them, including Tanya, my suggestion is using her connection to Kenya as her nickname and call her lioness, to make it clear you're extending your hand in friendship. So before you meet face to face, if Brennan tells him to tell her and Jason first, that's your stepping stone and take it. You can add her to the list of newly created Ninjetti, simply by her seeing you meeting now face to face finally.'

'Call a meeting that night after it arrives, and call Rocky first, if he refuses to listen shout that out to the ape and it's going to freeze him automatically, since only he's going to be the one to listen. So though William is too stubborn at times to look at the truth, he thought your powers were destroyed, as had Adam, but Rocky loves you like you're really his baby sister."

"And he's going to understand why you did this, once you explain it to him. But the duo and Katherine, they need to see you today, so you can surgical strike it, before the twosome attempt to sabotage us here. Uncle Buck taught us this from an early age, as well.' Shalimar said to her gently and she nodded to that, before her statement about Jason caught her. "Wait you know about my bond with Jason?" she asked and she heard a gentle chuckle as Shalimar answered her.

"Yes, his spirit animal is a friend of ours and to answer the unasked question, his spirit animal is your nickname for him, Rex, your zords became your spirit animals and bonded you together for life. Our parents are us as a adults. And it's the same for the thunderzord spirit animals, but all of us were feeding into your strength during your first three years of life as a power ranger."

"This was our destiny as well, life as a ranger we created the first ever power rangers when our grandparents were our age. Sit his who we are and who were destined to be now Those of us who are more dangerous than others are the ones you need to keep under tight control, your temper is the result of Firebird herself, and it's the same for Dragon in the case of Tommy."

"So with that in mind, you have to make sure he's never woken up a second time, after he nearly went green ranger when Zedd got his hands on you. You and Tomy are meant to be together, we are not giving him up, and to keep the team together, call a meeting of the Rangers today, before doing so again the night it arrives, we were never lost, we've always been with you nine.'

'Spirit animals see the bonds their humans have for each other, when you and Jason took on your powers I got a look at your bond with Jason and saw your adoptive twin bond with him and Billy. But we and Billy were meant to become Ninjett, I know what you mean to him and what he means to you now, but certain bonds were forgotten in areas, like the one regarding Zack and Trini."

"And some of them are not going to not look at the big picture, so with that, put in hidden meanings into your letter to him, and let them read between the lines in every underlined sentence.' she said and Kim nodded as she read through it and grabbed a white out blotter, and added the suggestions to it, and underlined the key points to it while she was doing it then, before reading it to herself then.

"Dear Tommy, how are you, I'm fine the training is going great right now, Coach says I'll be ready by the first competition in a few weeks, and it's at the Pan Globals, I'm hoping to be able to win my first medal this way. Tommy this is the hardest thing I've ever had to say, in some ways it's hard and the most wonderful thing that could happen since I left home."

"And in some ways it's wonderful and others it's frightening at the moment. Because I know what is going to do to us but I..., I've met someone else, I think you'll like him he's kind and a good listener. I never wanted to hurt you, but I feel like I found the one I'm meant to be with. Tommy I'll always love you, but I see you as a friend and brother, no matter what happens between us,

"I'll always love you, be careful right now and take care of yourself my Falcon, our connection is intact, always, forever yours, 'Your' Crane, Kimberly. P.S., Take care of Cat, Monkey Man, Wolf, Kermit and Lioness, and be careful, my friend, don't let this get to you, be careful of our friends upstairs, stay strong, and keep 'him' contained no matter what, things are calm right now.'."

"But that could change at a moments notice, my love, the gruesome twosome may be gone, but there's still a danger. One here we can't ever risk, keep concentration and don't lose focus.'." she read out as she wrote her letter and then thought it over. 'That sounds about right, alright time to emphasize the message, if they don't get it and he finally wakes up its going to happen all over again, here.'

'But I'm not losing him to his alter ego no matter what, Rita I swear to god you're never getting your gree name anger back. You thought you got rid of me well you crossed the wrong pink ranger, The Pink Crane Ninjetti Mighty Morphin Power Ranger will return, I promise you.' she thought to herself and then wrote out a longer message to that warning, before reading the letter thoroughly a second time and sighed in relief.

'Our conversation two years ago is the biggest reason you need to stay strong, don't let those parasites do it again, focus on what we were taught. And most of all my friend, don't let this get to you, this situation. And be careful of our friends upstairs, keep contact with Mother Bear and Rex. But stay strong, and keep 'him' contained no matter what, 'he' must not be allowed to be released.'."

"And not after the 'Changing of the Zords' incident or the 'Back to the Future' incident. Parts one and two when you became a member of 'our' family, when he came alive when was he was first released. You're the leader of the team, but he's still inside you, he can never be allowed to come back. Or it'll start all over again, guys listen to him when he says this is serious, Billy, you too.'."

"Of ten, only five have the knowledge regarding that danger, of ten, only one has the skills to match him move for move, you and I both know the dangers. As we've been with him his entire career as a ranger, only we truly understand those dangers. But only you, Billy, only you can prevent that from happening, you're all that's left of us, take care of each other, remember your promises.'."

"Remember Billy, remember the trap we walked into after Sha and the guys joined the team. And when Dragon was cloned, as we had his zord form on the loose. You remember the amount of damage 'he' himself caused when Tommy was placed under that spell. You remember how close he came to destroying us, we can't let him return and get his hands on the dagger, for if we do."

"It's going to start all over again, Billy, trust me I know what I'm doing, this is no longer just about us, it's about the safety of the entire planet. Think about that, before the guys upstairs notice something is up, understand. Billy, listen to me carefully here, this is about something even bigger than you think. But 'he' can't be allowed to be back on the loose, it's dangerous enough already.'."

"But if you don't listen to him, the side of him you saw before he joined the team is going to be back on the loose. As your omega, I'm just saying this now, alright, but that is a direct order boys, Tanya, you three are pack animals. But I'm making this a direct order, listen to him, stick together. And take care of each other, as the senior Pink ranger that is a direct order guys, understand.'."

"Billy again this is serious, you need to remember these titles, Green With Evil, Back to the Future Parts one and two, Changing of the Zords. But everything that had to do than with an old enemy I'm trying to stop. But this about why I'd do this for his sake and mine, its now about someone else. I'm trying to protect not only him, but us and the entire team and planet right now in this.'."

"Yes, we're separated, but I love him still, this isn't forever, if you need to call me than do that, just give me a chance to explain this all of you. Billy I promise nothing changed for any of you and why would it. You're my brothers and sisters, I love you and I'd never let you go and why would I exactly. Because, like you, I'm pack, I've flown in a flock all my life, like you, I'm lonely.'."

"There are certain things that I need to explain to you guys here and in order to do that, you got to look deeper than the surface of what you can see. Ninjetti, you recall the first lesson we learned when we started out. 'To all those who possess the great power, all things are possible, Sha' and I are away, but our connection remains, think about that boys, there's more than you think to this."

"Those titles are not just from any normal situation William, I'm talking about the events before and after Tommy moved to town. But think about the dates, starting with the first and work your way up to when I got chosen. And for training, if you need another indicator here he's in the pier. And just waiting to resurface if the whistle goes off and my mate is converted for a second time.'

"Rangers listen to me carefully, this is no longer just about him and me, it's about the safety of the entire planet, the evil that was around. Just before he became a ranger is now a security concern we can't ever risk. The danger is still alive and its uniform is on display at the office keep that in mind. I'm not staying in Miami forever I'm coming home for the spring semester next year.'."

"And you're hearing what this letter really means, to repeat that Rangers listen to me carefully here. There are going to be some very trying times after this arrives, but I'm making it very clear here, take care of him and each other. We're not together, briefly, but I still love him, I always will, soulmate. As ninjetti, the soulmate connection it went Ninjetti, when we were released.'."

"Billy you know what I'm trying to say here, you were around for the biggest portions of it. But when these powers were unlocked everything that comes with it activated too. We're still Ninjetti, though we're separated, but you boys are my boys, the girls my sisters, and Tommy my one true love. I'm not staying gone forever, I promise I'm returning after the competitions, to repeat that.'."

'I'm coming home after the games are finished, I'll be back next spring in the mean time, just take care of each other, see you soon. I'm not giving you up Tommy, stay strong and I'll seen you soon Falcon, and the Crane and the Falcon will fly together forever, I Love You 'My' Falcon, Your only love the Crane.'." she read and smiled as she thought to herself softly at writing it out like that, knowing Tommy would hear it instantly.

'That sounds good, he's going to see it automatically, but hopefully he doesn't look too closely, I don't want him to know how much this is killing me to write this. It doesn't matter anyway, I belong to him and no one else, guys please listen, don't destroy our friendship, see it, please see it. I can't lose you, just give me chance to explain here, I love you guys, don't destroy our friendship, because of this.'

'And Kat, my sister, listen to me carefully now, if you get hit again, I swear I will find some way to free you from that spell, I'm not having you suffer another case of guilt here, it's going to be fine Kitty, just fight it, fight her as hard as you can.' she thought to herself in concerned affection for the other girl. "Kim don't worry, I know you belong to him and he belongs to you, nothing changes that my sister, I love you sis." she heard a teenage voice say gently and she quickly answered the voice.

"Who are you exactly, I didn't think she started yet?" she asked and the voice answered her with a gentle smile in her tone. "My name is Kalina, I am her cat spirit, and to answer your second question, she reached the point to where she's ready now. But in order to unleash it, we got to get Rex and Elena involved and we're at the level needed to be able to take out the troops that did this to both of us."

"We're your complete equal in powers Kim, in fact her color and symbol is purple and me, she's the Purple Cat Ninjetti Ranger. Jason is the Cherry Red T-Rex Ninjetti Ranger and Tanya is the Gold Lioness Ninjetti Ranger. But if we all combine together when Jason comes home, we have enough power to destroy the enemy troops with just our Ninjetti powers now, and we're now the enlisted officers." She told her and she nodded in happy amazement at the news.

"Enlisted officer, you mean to tell me that with the fact we took on these powers, we just entered officers training, Kalina?" she asked and she heard her explain that to her. "Indeed we did, but here the thing with the guys. White and Cherry Red, with gold mixed into it, is the symbol of the alpha, hot pink, near violet colored, is the symbol of the omega, Rocky's color is the sign of the beta and we go down the list from there in ranks of officers training, but it's enlisted officers."

"But the ranks are who you're mated too, but I'm mated to Damian, Elena to Tobin, Jesse to Lexa and you to Brennan." she said to her and she nodded. "Alright me to Tommy, Rocky to Aisha, you to Billy and Tanya to Adam. Should I tell them this and call a team meeting and let the seven know, this right now, before it shows up?" she asked her and she heard a gentle smile as she heard her sister's bear answer that question, as she looked at her sister's symbol on her bracelet as it start glowing.

"Yeah, you better tell our humans and call a meeting so we can nip this in the bud, Shal, but don't worry the seven of us are going to choose both sides anyway if you tell us in advance, before the blasted thing shows up in a few days. As to that us Ninjetti can see the truth in another Ninjett's words and we know you're not letting us go when you tell us this, but we need to see each other." she said to her and she nodded as she took her pictures out and saw the one of her, Aisha and Kat with their arms around each other.

Katherine Hillard had joined the team when Kim had been selected for advanced training and previously she'd been under a spell that was placed on her by Rita, who had turned Tommy into the green ranger, though Kat was freed from the spell, her feelings of lust had only grown, though Tommy belonged to Kim she wanted him. As those thoughts ran through her head she ran a second check in reading it thoroughly as she grabbed an envelope, wrote it to the juice bar at their favorite hang out.

The Youth Center, better known to the entire community as Ernie's Gym and Grill, which for the town adult population was a favorite, because he had everything needed to work out, while for the kids, it was the teen and junior population's favorite hangout, because it gave them a place to work and hang out, and he was a friend of their parents, and he'd watched them and the kids of her generation grow up, and he knew them all extremely well. 'If he knows about us if he overheard our conversations nine months ago, he's hiding it well, but he's a good parental friend and I love him like another uncle, and with that, I know he's going to know something's up, if they over-react.'

'I knew this was going to be hard though, but I have to let Tommy know the truth and that is that my heart will always belong to him, it's always about the greater good, no matter the sacrifice I do what has to be done for the sake of the entire planet, I'm a ranger, I protect the planet, only this time, I'm tearing my heart out to protect my mate, my friends and the entire planet, I have to do this.' Kim thought to herself as she put it in the mailbox to go out and stood there for a few minutes thinking.

After thinking it through then she decided to teleport to the command chamber and talk to her mentor, Zordon, who'd been her adoptive father, since she became a ranger. 'He always gave good advice, I should see him, if his opinion matches to mom, and my godparents, as well as the rest of team parental gang it would help to have a second opinion, though I sent it out already.' she thought, as she smiled at the thought of seeing her mentor then.

This worked in not only helping her, but give her a chance to bring herself home for a few hours then, but being able to see Tommy before the letter arrived and letting him know that she would always be his no matter what happened, was the biggest reason to do it now. After checking to make sure that there was no one around or listening, the former pink ranger activated her communicator to call her mentor to let him know that she was teleporting in, wanting to hear his voice as she missed her surrogate father a lot, her parents were out of town, and she hadn't seen her god-parents in a while too.

"Zordon, this is Kimberly, I need to teleport back to Angel Grove, is it alright if I teleport in?" she asked and heard a smile in his tone and grinned as he answered her then. "Yes Kimberly, you have my permission." Zordon said and she nodded to that, "Alright stand-by." Kim said and, after quickly looking around one last time before she activated her communicator, she turned it on and disappeared in a flash of pink.

After arriving at the command chamber as the pink pulse faded around her, she looked and saw the changes that Tommy had told her about. She also noticed their old uniforms and weapons in the glass cases against the opposite wall and saw her uniform and smiled as she saw it next to his, it didn't matter she was retired that was who she was as she thought on what he told her what happened so far. Tommy had told her that because there were only five pieces of the Zeo crystal, Billy had passed his crystal over to Tanya Sloan and took a position as their tech advisor in case there was trouble later.

Because the team had been turned back into children a few months earlier, and the fact that Lord Zedd and Rita Repulsa and destroyed their power coins, the team had to go and find the Zeo crystal and get a stronger set of powers. They had found the crystal, but Goldar and Rita's brother Rito Revolto had destroyed the command center. So to keep it from getting attacked again they have moved it lower and renamed it the command chamber, as she looked at her brother's assistant and her mentor smiling.

"Kimberly it is so good to see you again." Alpha 5 said with a smile in his voice and Kimberly smiled back at him. "It is good to see you too Alpha," She said and Zordon got started then, "What can I do for you, my pink crane?" he asked her gently and she sighed as she explained that to him then, knowing he'd understand. "Today I sent a break up letter to Tommy and I need to talk to him before he gets it, I'm not completely ending it, but I wanted your advice regarding this at the moment."

"I will always I belong to him, but I came to explain everything to help us both concentrate now, and keep them protected." Kim said and he nodded as he got the reason for this, his current red ranger, was still suffering from the spell Rita had put on him, and if this meant he was protected from getting turned again, they were willing to bend the rules of over abusing the powers then.

"Alright Kimberly, I will comm Tommy and have him teleport here so the two of you can talk." Zordon said to her gently. "Thank you Zordon." Kim said as Alpha moved over the control panel and prepared to contact Tommy. "How have things gone since I left Zordon? Kat told me he's nearly been killed fifteen times since I left and the Machine Empire showed up" she asked and he sighed as he answered her gently.

"They have been a bit hectic since the Machine Empire arrived, Tommy has been a bit distracted." Zordon said and she nodded to that, knowing the distraction was because they were separated. "Okay, and I know why actually, our animals spirits are still very active, every time they get hit, it hits me in the process. And I've lost my concentration as well, so him for me and me for him, we got one chanc at this."

"But I think I can handle that and take care of it." she said, as she asked the next question, knowing he'd probably agree with her mother then and wanting to hear it from him then as she asked the question. "How dangerous is the latest set of parasites exactly. If you had to send them after those crystals. And Billy got sidelined this after the explosion 5 months ago anyway?" she asked and he hid a smile as he answered her.

"King Mondo is the metallic version of Lord Zedd, just as powerful, evil and devious, but his sons are younger versions of him, and they're monsters are much stronger than the ones you dealt with when you were a ranger, so I sent them to get the Zeo crystal shards and they got upgraded to being Zeo Rangers in the last five months, but it's been pretty hectic in the last eight months and Tommy's having a hard time in concentrating, with your bond over reacting with you and Aisha gone." he said and she nodded as she answered with a sigh.

"The Rangers and I are getting worried about him, because of it." he added and she nodded as she answered with a sigh. "You got something else to worry about here, Zordon, because despite the fact a clone of Dragon is in the past, he's still inside of him, but that's why I came back, I need to talk to him, so we can help him focus finally now in both areas." she said and then looked more closely at the wall and saw her mate's old uniform, sitting on the left side of his white one and looked back at him again.

"Dragon you hear me, you awake." she said, pressing her hand against the glass and in response the glove reached out to press his hand against hers. With the glass between them and she nodded, knowing that was her him that did that. "I know that's you, my you, but I promise, she's never getting her hands on you again, I swear it. I love you, I love all three sides of you, my mate." she said and the helmet lowered slightly then.

And she smiled at that knowing he was looking into her eyes at that gently. "You got him locked up tightly?" she asked and it gave a nod to her and she nodded. "Dragon possessed his uniform, he, and I don't have to hear his voice, to know that. He's still awake, our him is still awake, but his alter ego is under lock and key right now. At the current moment and with that in mind right now, is it just because she duplicated him."

"Why did you keep the original green ranger uniform and put it next to the white ranger uniform?" she asked him and he explained it. "It's a tribute memorial to the green ranger, when Tommy became the white ranger, but it's meant to be warning. Now that the danger is still very real that Dragon is still here, just contained. But am I to understand you decided to add that warning yourself to the letter you sent him, to remind Billy?" he asked her and she nodded as she answered him.

"To go into the first portion of it is that I gained certain information since they destroyed the power coins Zordon, and that was that though they destroyed the coins. It's that they didn't destroy our powers, but whatever Dulcea told you she's right. I had a discussion with Kat's animal spirit and she told me they're awake. In fact our spirit animals are still very active, here watch this." she said and turned to their uniforms then.

"Hey guys, the Crane is back in the nest." she said and the sextet of uniforms all lit up in a flash of their colors and he smiled at that response as she looked at her mate's second uniform then. "Hey baby it's your crane, crane's home." she said in response to that his sent out a flash of white light and hers sent out a flash of pink light and they intertwined themselves together and he responded to the demonstration with a smile.

"Well I see your powers are very active, does this mean that Dragon is active as well, if the quintet are still awake right now?" he said and in response to that a green flash of light went flying out of Tommy's original uniform and intertwined itself with the white and pink ribbons and she smiled as she answered his question. "Yeah he's awake, but it's the good side of him at the moment, that's why I came actually."

"My Dragon is Tommy's tough Demeanor, while Rita's is the evil green ranger, and he's going by the name Draco now, so our Dragon is Dragon, her's is called Draco as of today. But the letter is focused on the side of him that wrecked the command center, that's what I'm trying to prevent now and to answer your question on whether or not. If I put him in there and my orders to prevent him from going on a rampage."

"Yeah I did, he's a power ranger, but he's still the Green Dragon Ranger, I'm going by what I see it here, but Draco only takes hold if he's beyond pissed or he's placed under a spell, if they don't understand that and keep talking about it it'll piss him off enough that he could have a relapse and I'm not risking it and losing him to his alter ego now." she said and then sighed as she asked her question, knowing he was going to understand this, while explaining her hypothesis of her mate at the same time.

"To put this gently, he's come close to losing me four times, and they were all when we before and after we became Ninjetti, I'm the only thing that is keeping Dragon from losing it. I'm his angel to put this for a better word, Fred was Anakin when he started out, Tommy is Anakin at his life as a Jedi and that's where it gets dangerous. As to why Tommy is Anakin, Vader is Draco and Tommy's the median, that's the message now."

"I've been running over things since we got our Ninjetti powers, and this is our version of the Sith/Jedi war, only in terms of his soul. Our Tommy is the good, light side version of him, which is what Brennan really is, Brennan is the Jedi side of him, while Dragon is the dark, destructive alter ego, and he is the Sith side of him. As to where I fall into this, I'm his reason for living, his very soul, if anything happens to me, Dragon would take full control and go on a killing spree, we can't let that happen no matter what the cost."

"When we started we didn't know there was a sixth power coin, nor did we know there was another who was destined to join us, what did your prophecy say about the green ranger exactly, when we offered him a place on the team, because it felt like it was completely right, almost like he was the final piece of the puzzle needed to finish our gang?" she asked him and he explained that to her as he started feeling his heart start pounding as he remembered that conversation with Alpha at the time.

"For he who possessed the sixth power coin, he had to make a choice, choose what was right or what was easy. I didn't know she had the sixth power coin till he flamed-teleported into the command center, it took a genetic testing of his bio waves to figure out who he was, before I figured out what she did. And told Jason to destroy the sword of darkness, after Jason destroyed it, and as the leader of your team, Jason was the true leader of the team in my absence."

"He was the one to offer him a chance to redeem himself, but I hadn't known what was coming at the time, why do you ask?" he asked her and she explained that to him. "Because in typical fashion, I think the powers were searching out the right person for the sixth power coin, I'm looking at this in terms of the powers like they're completely sentient, but I think the dragon ranger power coin was waiting patiently while its counterparts, our power coins, were put to use, protecting the town.

"And it, or rather he, was hoping to be used for good, he preferred to be used for good then evil and was waiting till it could be used for it, but getting drafted by an evil sorceress meant it's real use had to wait. Dragon was waiting till he met me so he could get started, if we drafted him right when we saw his training, that would keep Dragon, our Dragon in total control. It was hoping for a correct match, because somehow Dragon himself was waiting till he found his mate, and put that into the powers and it."

"And he, were waiting till their true owner arrived and when he moved here they zeroed in on him, and in doing so, that woke up Shalimar completely. And she was waiting for Tommy and Dragon's spirit brother, and by that I mean Jason and Rex. But Rex and Dragon are brothers in the spirit animal world, to break him out of it, and the power coin was glad to join its fellow powers coins in the fight against evil. As we worked as a sextet during that year at the time, but that bond was meant to happen as was us meeting the trio, I changed history by ensuring the quintet were the very first Rangers."

"Shalimar had to wait for us to admit our feeling for each other before Brennan woke up then and it completely activated the powers in our case as Ninjetti. And with that in mind here, he was meant to join the fight when he moved to town, but that brings it to our soul bonds, when he was chosen by the powers themselves. So fate had a higher hand in mind when I came into his life, Brennan was waiting till he met me, before he found a girlfriend, and vice versa, I wasn't interested in dating till I saw him and he saw me."

"To put it for a better word here, our lives as power rangers are our version of the Sith/Jedi war, he's our chosen one, and in my case I'm his very reason for living. With me he's got a reason to fight for the light side of the powers, but that gets as dangerous as it gets, because thanks to the spell. But Draco is waiting just under his good, Jedi like stature, if something happens to me or if I'm hurt, in all three areas, his anger could wake up Draco, but that's why I came to see you today, I need your advice."

"Zordon, I have to know something, to protect us, and the team from being destroyed, what would be best, that letter I sent is meant to protect him and the rest of our team. I can't lose him to Dragon and I won't, so what's the best call once it arrives, if half the team sees it and the other half doesn't. I'm trying to protect us from being used against each other, if they don't see that, it could cause a relapse, and I'm not losing him to his alter ego, he's my everything?" she asked and he answered as he heard the love for his Red Zeo Ranger in her voice and knew she'd do anything to keep from losing Tommy.

"I never saw his ranger abilities in that light before, Tommy was meant to be a power ranger, but Rita got to him first, you'd freed him and he took his place on the team. Alright so my Red Ranger is the chosen one meant to battle the parasites of our galaxy and you're his angel, his very mate, wait a minute my young Crane. You created the program when you met the quintet's great grandparents at the time, but if he's the chosen, what does this mean now."

"If we're looking at this battle to protect earth that way, who is the only one who can stop him if he finally falls if something ever happens to you and he completely falls to the darkside?" he asked her and she explained it, feeling her heart falling as she did it, if he was killed or never came back from the darkside she'd never survive the heartbreak, he was her very reason for living, like she was his.

"It's Jason, he's Tommy's equal in every way, and Jason knows his moves extremely well. Just how close are the T-Rex and dragon powers in equality exactly, because Jason loves him like a brother, he's determined to not let him fall a second time or worse. Zordon I have to know, are the guys total equals in powers, and does the gold armor mean that?" she asked and he felt his concern growing by the minute as he answered her.

"They're completely even, Jason is, out of the original five of you, the strongest in terms of powers, the green dragon Ranger powers are completely matched up to them. So in the right hands they're safe, but when warped by evil are extremely dangerous, when Tommy was placed under that spell his powers were warped by the spell. And his alter ego, but when himself, he's stronger than your brothers, because he's working to protect them, you and everything he cares about, Tommy is a true leader where it counts now."

"The true mark of a warrior is their heart, they will fight to protect everything they care about, and with that in mind, his powers are always a risk if Dragon is back on the rampage, and if we have no chance to save his life, we may not have a choice here, but to put him down to save his soul." he said to her and she nodded as she answered him as she said her thought on that.

"So long as I'm here, that's not going to happen but that's a risk we can't take and with that let's just hope this never happens, because if either of us falls to the darkside and need to be put down and killed it will kill the other half, out of heartbreak, and we can't take that chance, we learned a lot from you and Dulcea, about our powers, but the underlining lesson is, in our case, we're one mind, heart and soul in two bodies now, he's my exact match and vice versa, our parents hear this and they'll be thrilled we found our other half, but hearing we're power rangers is something they'll need to get used to."

"I've been in training since I left though, our spirit animals were training me this entire time, the power went back into our hearts, but this was a decision to protect him, me, the entire power team and the entire planet, was this the right choice, I know my mother and the parents of my quintet would say yes, but I want a second opinion." she said and he nodded to that as he answered her gently as he explained his opinion.

"If it means to protect him, and your friends, put your relationship on hold till you're home, my young Crane. I never monitored your talks with your mother, but if I'm acting like a normal parent, this is the advice your parents would suggest, and with that, whatever the letter says. I can guess there's several hidden meanings in it, aren't there?" he asked her and she nodded to answer him.

"Yes, everything but my training is a lie, I'm not seeing anyone else, the statement as a friend, our relationship was that of friends first, the brother means get Jason as quickly as you can, if the situations start getting worse, he's the only one who can help him heal while I'm out of town, I need my big brother taking care of him, and finally the possessive tone in the word 'your' and my nickname."

"I belong to him and no one else, I'm his crane, he's my falcon. Zordon though the power coins were destroyed our powers ares still active, I've been feeling Shalimar in my head for the last nine months since I left, she and Brennan have been training me since I've been gone, my sister bond with Aisha and the guys had been helping with the pain of separation, so when it arrives, my only option is talk to the rest of the Ninjetti."

"Zordon what are the rankings in terms of the entire power team exactly, in terms of the military, when you recruited us, because when or if our parents get the truth, Preston needs to explain this to her if she crosses the line out of this, when I gave a direct order to her." she asked him and he explained that to her, as he used the enlisted services officer Ranking system, since it was as close to their way as possible as he went into it.

"With the fact I'm your mentor, I'm the ranger version of a three star general, following me are the reds, and they're full bird colonels, in your case you're a lieutenant colonel, right after Tommy and Jason. So you're the senior officer to the Eight, which in this case, when you took charge all those times, like when you ended up in your grandparents past, you were acting like a true leader to the others, between the duo and you, you're the leaders of the power team."

"Immediately following you and he's your equal, is Rocky, as the Red Ninjetti, he was leading the five of you, while Tommy leads the six. Rocky is your counterpart as the second Lieutenant colonel of the team, while Billy is the science officer and is a Major and right after you and Rocky while Aisha and Adam are both captains and Trini, Zack, Kat and Tanya are all first lieutenants, but the Ninjetti are the core of the team now."

"When your spirits animal deem the quintet ready for their powers, the ranking changes, but if this causes a split, and they cross the line, Jason and Tommy are the leaders of the team, you're next, Rocky's after you, and then Billy, followed by Aisha, and then Tanya, Adam, Trini, Zack and Kat, and if and when the time comes your uniforms are getting doubled and the green ranger uniform comes back into use when that happen." he said and she nodded to that as she answered him to explain the situations then.

"Actually to rephrase that Zordon, the nine of us are in charge now, the duo are no coms but the nine of us are enlisted officers. In order it's the duo, followed by me and Rocky, and then Billy and Aisha are majors, and the trio are captains. While the duo are non coms, but that sums it up now here, what also does it is that the Ninjetti are now the leaders of the team and with that, while the reds are sharing it's turning into a fight."

"Rocky made a promise to me from Jason, I need to let him know the truth here, I love him as much as I love Jason, he's my big brother, only he and Tanya, as well as Jason, can keep him from breaking." she said and he nodded to that. "I just made contact with Kat's spirit animal as well too here. She said that our ranks as rangers are by who we're mated too. And Jason is the secondary alpha, but Cherry Red and White with gold mixed into it are the symbol of the alpha, I'm wearing the symbol of the omega."

"Rocky is the dressed in the color of the beta and it goes down the ranks from there." she added as she told him and he nodded. "Indeed Kimberly, her cat is very correct, your levels are on who you're mated to and the gold is the symbol of the Alpha. But Jason is dressed in the color of the Alpha, Rocky the Beta. Billy the Alpha's third and so on, but the Ninjetti are in charge now." he said as Alpha was working on communications to call her mate to the Command Chamber for that meeting, knowing this was needed to get their current team leader a chance to concentrate then.

At that moment at the Angel Grove Youth Center, Tommy was sparring with one of their friends, Rocky Desantos, the Zeo blue ranger, felt a sudden stab in his heart and froze and he raised his hand to his chest at that, before looking up. "Whoa, what the hell was that exactly?" he said as he quickly sat down and the quintet surrounded at that. "What, what's wrong exactly?" Billy Cranston asked him and he quickly said it to him then.

"I just got hit by a more then pained case of heartbreak right now, before it faded, heartbreak like writing a letter. And whoever of us wrote it, it's killing them to do it right now and suddenly it was replaced by a sudden jolt of hope. Hang on." he said as he closed his eyes as he probed the emotions and felt a sudden jolt of determination and a more then determined tone to the mental voice to the voice as well then.

And finally a more then possessive tone towards him, Adam, Billy and Tommy then and nodded as he looked at the trio as he said it to them at that. "It's sounding more than possessive towards us, but we did say we were Kim's boys. And when it came to us, the idiot that crossed her was getting barbecued for it." he said, before he felt a gentle mental nudge in response to that and he smiled as his new pink ranger answered him.

"What's going on here, how is we could still be feeling each other's emotions, I though when they destroyed our abilities, they destroyed the rest of the connection with it?" Katherine 'Kat' Hilliard said in an undertone to him and he nodded. "Evidently not, what the..., Kat look at your bracelet, the pink crane is glowing on it." he said and she looked down at her bracelet and felt a jolt of shock, because it was glowing her friend's color.

As she gave a gentle mental push as her symbol glowed purple, before the pink answered the purple and they started a sequence of pulses back and forth. Before their friend's symbol answered the pulse and they started glowing gently in response. "I'm telling you first, as you're here with him, but I'm not letting you go. We're a trio for life no matter what happens, Kitty, love you sis, boys." Billy read out through the pulses.

Before Rocky pushed hard and his symbol glowed red and the crane answered his with a gentle glow, before he did it again and it started a gentle conversation back and forth. Before he did it one last time and hers glowed 3 times in response. "I think that means don't over do it, monkey man." Billy said and her crane glowed once to answer him. "Love you crane, miss you sis." he said and his glowed blue before hers glowed back.

"I think I know what the problem is, since the machine empire, we lost sight of who we are, you guys, we expected to live in our colors forever and by destroying our power coins. And their destroying the command center, Kim, Billy and Sha,' they just destroyed us in the one way that brought us down. Till we realized we had the crystal and we hated them and the machine empire ever since for it." Kat said with a sigh and they nodded.

"Severe case of identity crisis for us right now and she's feeling the same right now, she expected to live in her color for life, she misses having us on both sides of her. Her communicator on her wrist and her morpher always at the ready. She's as lost as we are and then to top it off now, is that our leader is in a color. And one he doesn't recognize himself in and Adam and I switched places in rankings, in colors we don't belong in."

"Billy is off the team right now, on physical duty rather then stand by, Sam, David and here's the damn result. We're all suffering a damn identity crisis and she decides now to page us, we need to be together. I keep hearing Shalimar give off a pained squawk every time we get hit and it's immediately followed by a distracted bear growl, what the hell's going on here." Adam Park said and she nodded as they exchanged looks at this then.

"Aw god, if she's hearing us and we're hearing her, Sha's getting bombarded by us every time either the five of us, or Kim, is getting hurt on the job. Or in training, so the link never quit, we can still feel each other's emotions and you're nearly killed when you got blasted Billy. If she felt that when they blew the base, she must have needed an immediate shower if the blast caused a heat flash." Tommy said and they nodded to him.

"One option, if she's here, we have to take that decision back, now, we need to be together, we're Ninjetti, we're the Ninjetti 7. We can't do this anymore, so if I'm reading it right to why she's talking to us in morse code, but she returns to town. And we're spotting shifts between us as he has her and Billy on both sides of him again. Or and this is a more immediate probability, but I think she decided she's not staying out there."

"She reached her limit now, so it's either a step back or they, and we, end the long distance friendship and relationship and she comes home as we're back together." Kat said and they nodded as the crane symbol on her wrist pulsed a gentle light to answer her and she nodded. "Yeah that's what I thought, I miss you too Crane, I need my partner back." she said and it glowed gently in response as it pulsed a message to her.

"I miss you too Kitty and that's why I reached my limit, it's either I can take a year or two off training. And I come home and we spot shifts or we come up with a better plan so we can do this. But you just read my thoughts out loud, we're in an identity crisis and we need to fix this and before one of us gets so hurt. That it puts us in the hospital Kitty, Werewolf, Kermit, Ape man, my falcon.'." Billy read out as she looked at him then.

"Calling us by our nicknames of last year that only makes it more clear here, she's right we're in an identity crisis right now. But, wait, look at the pulses, "many roads to take, some to happiness and to heart-ache. Any one could lose the way, but if I said we could turn it around and back to the beginning. Would you take the chance and make the change.'?" she read out through the pulses and they nodded in agreement that.

"Yeah we would and we would take it in a heart beat, we can't do this anymore, we want you back, we miss you, Crane, we want our sister back. If you asked us that question we'd do it in a heart beat and nothing is ever going to change between us." Rocky said and the duo and Kat nodded in agreement to his remark. "Kitty, Werewolf, Ape Man, we have to talk, but you read it right, Kitty.'." she read out and they nodded to her gently.

"When did you gain that nickname Kat?" their new yellow asked and explained that to her. "Right after she broke the spell on me, but after she did, she, Sha' and I became a trio, but of five girls, only Aisha and were the ones who stuck by her. But before we separated we had that bracelet made for her and the necklace as a going away present and mine and Aisha were friendship bracelets." she said and the quartet nodded to that.

"Kim is that you?" Adam asked and the pink crane glowed in response to his question and they nodded. "Uh..., yeah okay, what is it you have to tell us exactly if I just felt the emotional pained jolt exactly?" Rocky asked and it gave a gentle pulse in beeps as Billy read it out then. "Before I tell you, Tommy and I have to discuss this, but don't say anything, I'm here, but I wanted to see you." he read out through the pulses.

"There's only four of us who are still here with him, the him being Tommy, but..., you guys better listen to this, but the pulses are a case of morse code, and our animals are flashing out a message if Kim's symbol is glowing like this, but listen to this.' I'm telling you first guys, Kat, but it's urgent you understand this guys, but I'm not letting him go. I'm not letting you go, either, you're my brothers and sisters, I'm not letting you go."

"But the Ninjetti 7 will live on and we will prevail, but you're never getting your dark warrior back or destroying us. So get ready, stay away from my boys and sister, or you're getting cooked you two.'. Uh oh, well I know that tone, and the last time I heard it was after the terror toad. Ninjetti 7 she's been feeling lonely and ever since we separated and if our symbols are glowing, I think we hit the wall." he added to her and she nodded.

"Whoever of the girls wrote it, the voice sounds more then possessive regarding us, it's like she's determined to not let us go boys." Rocky said as he sent a questioning pulse to the person and he got a gentle nudge in response. Before he sent back his beta response and he got hit with his equal's pulse in response as he felt a jolt of love in the pulse. And with it a very possessive tone in the pulse towards him and the trio then and hid a smile.

"The possessive tone is aimed at us, you, me and Adam, as brothers guys, like she's determined to not let us go after the last close call and Tommy as their mate. I think it's Kim, something's wrong and whatever it is, it's pointed at the fact that it's been nine months now. And she's determined not to lose us over something like this, whatever it might be right now, our bond is possibly still active if the empathy link is still there."

"As if that not enough, her tone went overly protective over you and Kat, Tommy." Rocky said and they both nodded. "Aw crap, whatever it is, I think it's the fact that we just hit the wall, in her last letter she said she's losing focus. And Patrick said he had to catch her a few times, we may have given her a substitute flying companion. But she's alone, on her own, for the first time in 13 years right now." Kat said and they nodded to her.

"Kim are you here in town, where are you?" Tommy said softly and he felt a massive jolt of love shoot through their bond. "I think she hit the brick wall if she's feeling this towards us, but for years she's lived in a pack: always in a group of five for 8 years. And a sextet in the years since we took on our powers and for the first time. She's flying alone and she's lonely with out us, her pack, she's a pack animal and she misses us."

"Damn it, if she's feeling this, then she's homesick." Billy told him then when his communicator went off. "Go ahead Zordon I read you." Tommy said quietly and heard his voice. "Tommy, I need you to teleport to the command chamber alone, I need to talk to you." Zordon said and he nodded as he answered him then. "Aright I'll be there in a few minutes, Zordon." Tommy said, then turned to Rocky and the others.

"I've to go guys, Zordon needs to talk to me about something." he said and they nodded to that. "Alright we'll see you later I guess." Billy said to him. "Right see you later, but the five of you be on stand by to teleport there as well when I call you, okay." Tommy told him and they all nodded, grabbed his gym bag and left to teleport. As he walked away from the table he wondered what their mentor wanted to talk to him about.

'Aw man I hope there isn't anything going on right now.' He thought to himself as he walked into the hallway and looked around for anyone else before he activated his communicator and disappeared in a flash of red and reappeared in the command chamber and looked up at his mentor. "What is it you needed to see me about Zordon?" he asked and he smiled as he answered him then.

"I needed you to come, because there is someone who needs to see you." he said and Tommy looked confused at that "Who?" Tommy asked and she answered that from behind him then. "Me." Kim said, and Tommy turned around to find her standing behind him with a smile on her face and he smiled in delight. "Kim, what are you doing here?" he said with a smile as they hugged as she smiled softly as she answered him.

"God I missed you so much." she said as she buried her head into his shoulder and he tightened his arms around her. "Missed you too baby." he said as she looked at him. "How are the guys and Kat?" she asked and he sighed as he answered her. "They're getting worried about us, Rocky said he felt three things regarding the pulse with you, is our empathy link still locked on right now." he asked and she nodded with a sigh then.

"Yeah I came to see you, we need to talk." she said and he looked worried then as he answered her. "What is going on here?" he said and she sighed as she said it. "I think we better do this alone." she said and he nodded to her then as he answered her. "Come on" he said and lead her into a private section of the chamber they had set up three months earlier. "Alright, what is going on?" he said once they were alone and she got started.

"I sent a letter today that is going to be tough on both of us." she said to him and he sighed. "Why, what do you mean, if this is what I think it is?" he asked and she sighed as she answered him. "It's been nine months, our bond has been screaming from our separation, neither of us can concentrate, I can't focus, and I've come close to doing a repeat five times in four months, and I know you can't concentrate either."

"Tommy, we haven't talked much since you guys have gotten your new powers, and when I try to call you, you are just coming back from a fight or going to one, so with we have to choices here, just to prevent us from cheating on each other." she said, and he sighed as he got ready to ask it, knowing what she was going to say next then. "What are you trying to tell me Kim?" Tommy said to her gently then.

"With the way things are going, it would only take a few things to fracture our relationship and with the extended activities and your ranger duties. But there may come a time when our relationship would be split and it'll distract you, or it tears us apart and we start cheating on each other, I'm not risking that. That's why I came to talk to you baby." She said and he repeated it, feeling his heart sinking then.

"What are you saying Kimberly?" Tommy asked again. "I think that we should break up" she said and he looked at her in shocked disbelief. "But why, Kim, why split, we can fix this?" he asked and she took his hands then and explained things to him, as she got ready to tell him the truth, knowing this was going to give him a shock afterwards. "Because we are drifting apart, we haven't spoken to each other in weeks."

"Sooner or later our bond is going to be so strained that we are going to start hating each other or cheating on one another. I want to head that off before it happens." she said and he nodded to that. "So what now, where does this leave us at?" he asked softly then. "Even though we are not together, we remain friends and rebuild that bond, our relationship may be over, but it's not completely, so long as we're able to maintain the connection, but this is between us and it's not going to affect them."

"So though we're separated, nothing's changed between us, I belong to you and you to me, but we belong to each other and we were friends first. So we rebuild that bond as well, we are ninjetti, and we can still feel each others' emotions, so if you need to call me we can still do it telepathically, so this will help if something happens later. Tommy, it's been 9 months since I left and I miss you guys so much now, but here it is."

"I've tried this long to hold up a long distance connection and relationship, I can't do it anymore. For the first time I'm alone, I have this weight sitting in my chest and no matter how I hard I try it's not going away. Because I keep seeing you and me when we dealt with my cousin, when we got together at the moment right now. But instead of a letter, the matters have changed, to prevent it from destroying us now."

"But I've had this weight in my heart and it's not going away either I keep seeing us in the beginning, before and after you returned to the team. When the trio joined us and when we went from 6 to 7 after Kat joined the team. But we've tried so long that I finally drew the line now, I can't do it anymore, I miss you guys so much right now." she said and he nodded as he gave her a hug and she buried her head into his neck then.

"Rocky said he a sudden jolt of heartbreak earlier, that's what it was, you drawing the line and writing that letter. So if I'm reading the emotions correctly, it's heartbreak because it was killing you to write that letter, and then hope. And because our animals possibly told you that though separated, you belong to me and vice versa. And finally determination, and that ones focused on the fact you're not letting the guys and me go."

"Okay I get it and I understand, if our empathy link is still active, Rocky got hit by your emotions, but your bonded to him in nearly the same scale you're bonded to me. But like any pack animal, the pack animals have such a deep bond, that being separated from the pack it's beyond lonely." he said and she nodded. "Rocky read the pulses correctly, I miss you guys, I'm homesick and I want to be with you." She said and he nodded to her.

"No not letting you go, you came to me instead of calling here, if that's the next episode after Yost got back we just change the sequel now. Just a step back for a while, but we take it back and do it again here." he said and she nodded. "Yeah it's better like this and with us making this decision it's going to be stronger then ever, for us. And the gang, the boys and Kat, but we're not going to lose, we fix it." she said and he hugged her tightly.

"Us too, with you, for Billy it's even worse and you just spoke our thoughts out loud, looking at things now, we should have thought it through. If you stayed, I tried harder and we could turn things back to the day you left, but that portion is written in stone now. But from this point and forward, if we said we could take it right back to the start again and the guys are going to agree when I say this, as well now right now."

"But we take the chance and make it last forever now by taking that decision back now, take this decision back, take things back to the start again. Are you thinking what I'm thinking, we can fix this." he said and she nodded. "Yeah I would, if I take it back now, and you're still mine, I guess you pray I never left your side now, don't you. But I never let you go, and here you are, you're still my mate, the man I know."

"The you I know would never give up this quickly, but like you said, you don't want to lose me well you don't have worry about that now. Because we take this jump twice and we stay together forever now. But if we rethink this, take back the original decision, us Ninjetti separated." she said and he nodded. "And we bring us back together, if you stayed, if we tried, and we thought this through, and if we do it now as well."

"And you're still mine if we do, but here it is, we make this decision now and we can fix what went wrong in our relationship. Many roads to take now, some to happiness and others to heart ache and anyone of them could be taken now. But if I said we turn that clock around, would you take that chance and we could make it last forever now?" he asked and she nodded to him as she answered him then as she looked at him

"I would, we both come to regret letting me leave, if I stayed, you at least had me and Billy with you and Kat and I could take turns as the pink ranger. But to fix what went wrong, that's an even better option right now. But the four of you, I miss you guys so much, that unknowing or not, you contacted me in animal form. And in morse code, but you, Adam, Billy, Rocky and Kat, your symbols on my bracelet were talking to me."

"And I made my decision, I had to see you, so it's we take a step back or we end things, but the Olympics can wait a year or so, right now. But you guys, no I can't do this anymore, I want to return to the team and my nest. I miss my nest and I miss my flock, I just want to come home now." she said and he looked confused as he thought it over and then it hit him and he felt hopeful as he smiled as he looked at her smiling.

"Wait a second here, what was it your mother used to say about this?" He asked and she quickly answered that. "For a relationship this important, set things on..., you mean just cool things off and when I come see you, we act like we're still together. There's no need for changing our circumstances, but we act like we're still together every time I see you and the quintet now. You think we should just set things on hold for a bit."

"So we just set things on hold and rebuild our relationship til I come home next year." she said with a smile and he nodded in agreement as he said it to her smiling gently. "Yeah exactly, we set things on hold and rebuild the bond till we're like we were the previous two years. There's no reason to just let go, we belong to each other. Do we tell the seven that, and our parents now?" he asked and she nodded, smiling to him

"Yeah mom and papa would just agree with this anyway, as would mom and dad and Uncle Preston and Aunt Alicia, we have to tell the seven though first though. Have you and Billy heard from the duo at all, since we separated. I've been getting frequent letters and phone calls from Jason, but them I haven't from them more then ten times in two years, and this situation and is issue is going from friendship to resentment now."

"To answer the other, the first to know are the ones with you, our best friends and the family, before we tell them, in alignment. We took this chance and make last forever, but if you get lost and lose yourself." she said and he nodded as he pressed his forehead to hers. "Then what does it really mean, but back to the beginning, you know where you're going, but it starts here, time to come home." he said and she nodded to him gently.

"Yeah time to come home, you, Kat and the guys need me even more, so we have to do this, but there's more to life when we listen to our hearts." she said and he smiled as he answered her. "And because of you I have the strength to start and get my head back in the game, my omega, my alpha's mate. Alpha and omega, we can do this, we can combine both together, we take this chance now." he said and they smiled at each other.

"Because the..., aw for gods sakes here right now, alright I see the problem and real issue here now the first to know are the enlisted officers, we've got to tell the seven. Though if Jake, Curt or even Richie catch her with anyone else, she's screwed, we have to get to the duo first, before he hears this second hand from the guys, Jamie and Angie." She said and he nodded in agreement to her thoughts as he answered her.

"Agreed our friends, the Ninjetti, the seven are the first to know this, as they're who you're soul bonded too, me included in that statement. And to answer your second question, no we haven't and right now that friendship. It has shifted from friendship to resentment, Billy especially, for the three of us. And in our eyes, we've bonded to the guys and Aisha, and while Jason has kept his side of the bargain, they haven't at the moment here as to that, they're jealous they've only got themselves to blame."

"So what's going on if we can be sure nothing's changed between us?" he asked her and she smiled. "They destroyed the power coins, but they didn't destroy our powers, all three sides of us are bonded nothing's changed and nothing's going to change." she said and he nodded in shock disbelief at that. "You mean they're still here, I haven't heard from him in six months, where's he been this entire time?" he asked and she nodded to answer that as she explained it to him.

"Yeah they are, in fact they never left at all, the coins were destroyed, but they went back into our hearts. The reason you didn't hear from him in a while is because they were waiting for us to again make contact. And as to why it's because he and Shalimar have been training me to teach me advanced techniques, we feel each other's thoughts now, and if we can teach Rocky and the guys, that solves our problem."

"The sextet explained to me that our bonds are completely symbiotic, as our spirit animals, they are what give a Ninjetti their powers." she said and he nodded as she finished her explanation them. "So it's like the force and being a Jedi, the force is what's a Jedi his powers. As Ninjetti, our animals give us are powers and we're in a total symbiotic relationship with our animals, we are one, I've already connected and bonded to Shal completely, the four of you have to do the same here."

"To answer you second question, he and Shalimar have been training me in how to increase the intensity, its so strong now, you can speak to him mentally or aloud now, that keeps it strong and if either of us are in trouble, I'll send her to you or vice versa and we can do it from within if we're placed under another brainwashing spell, try it." she said gently and he nodded as he called out then.

"Brennan, can you hear me?" he asked and he heard the voice of his falcon. 'Yeah Tommy it's good to hear your voice friend, she's right, you can talk to us still, your powers were on stand by after the power coins were destroyed, we were still here, and we've been watching over you and the quartet, your relationship is fused for life, she belongs to you and vice versa, you got to tell the guys later.' he said to Tommy and he smiled as he got it as he looked at her and took her hands then as he pressed his forehead to hers, smiling.

"Alright we're mates for life, so my soul belongs to you now, I don't want anyone else I want you and with that, Kim, though we aren't together right now, just know that even though we are not together any more I love you, just you, and no one else." Tommy said taking her in his arms and she responded to that in the same manner. "I love you too Tommy, I always have and I always will, my heart is, was and always will belong to you." Kim said and she moved closer to him and kissed him.

"Separated or not, I love you, and I'll always love you." Tommy said and they hugged tightly as she pressed her forehead to his. "The Crane and the Falcon, soulmated for life, nothing is taking you away from me and nothing will, including Draco, Tommy be careful the next few weeks, we're lucky they never noticed you were distracted, but if they realize it now, they're going to pull a Rita and do it again and I can't lose you." she said and he pulled her into a hug.

"First call, once that letter arrives we need to get Jason and Aisha back up here to go into this, with one piece missing, I'm going with the other and Jason is the first of the nine to hear it from both of us, following him is Aisha, but this better not screw things up, if necessary, we're calling a full Ninjetti meeting right after it arrives." he said and she nodded in agreement to that as she sighed then. "No need, we're calling team meeting now rather than that night." she said and he nodded gently to her

"That letter was sent to the juice bar and I know that one of the others are probably going to be reading it over your shoulder when you get it and with that. With the fact they already know, they can see the lies for what they are this way." she said and he nodded. "Anything else in this situation." he asked her and she nodded to him as she answered him with an aggravated sigh.

"You need to know that although most of the letter is the truth, nearly everything else in it is a lie." she said and he nodded as he decided to look over what was going to be fake when he read it when it arrived later. "What part is the lie. Because Kat, no doubt, is going to be reading it over my shoulder, and she's been keeping her promise to take care of me ever since you left, so she's going to know it when she sees it?" he asked her and she explained that to him gently in relief that he understood her so well then.

"The part that is a lie is I found someone else and that I think of you as a brother, but the key points are underlined to send hidden messages to you. I'm also using the quartet's nicknames, and I'm extending my hand in friendship to Tanya as of now. Her new nickname where I'm concerned is now Lioness, an offer of friendship from the Crane to the Lioness." she said and he nodded with a smile at that as he answered her then.

"Well that is one hell of a lie." he said with a smile as they both laughed at that, "Come on, let's head over to my house, I know that my parents will be happy to see you, and knowing my mom. She's going to agree with your decision here, as would your mother and the rest of the parents of your original quintet, they watched you grow up and they raised you. But if I see the problem here right, they're not going to talk to or call their parents, to get their advice, into why you really sent it." he said and she nodded to him.

"So rangers, did you work things out between you." Zordon asked after they came back into the room. "We did Zordon, we decided to put things on hold till I come home next year and rebuild the bond till then. Zordon with the fact our powers are still very active, Billy, Aisha and I can help when need be, but we got to rearrange the rule book, because with the fact we just did this it's going to keep the team together."

"And we're telling the team beforehand, we are going to keep our friendship strong no matter what happens over the next few months. but we're calling a secondary meeting the night it arrives and I'm telling Mother Bear and Monkey Man. As well as Lioness, Kermit, Kitty, Werewolf, Lioness and Rex that night. With the Ninjetti now in charge, the duo are non coms, so as to that, we take it to the adult Ninjetti Nine next."

"So as that, they're the first to know, before we tell our paternal alphas and my adult alpha's fourth. The adult Ninjetti Nine, and the duo's parents are going to agree with this, but my godparents and adult Falcom are the first to know now. But the trio, like mother crane, they're the adult version of the 4 of us." Kim said and he nodded, knowing she meant Jason, Rocky, Tanya and Aisha, and the trio's parents in that statement.

"Paternal alphas and adult alpha's fourth, you mean the duo's fathers and Aisha's mother" he asked and she nodded to him. "That is good, that is a very good idea, but it is going to be hard when the other rangers find out. By that I mean the duo, in what is going on, especially is something else is happening in the middle of it." Zordon said and she nodded in agreement, with a aggravated sigh.

Trini and Zack had been her best friends since they were four and she was determined to get them to understand. "Yeah that could be a problem, Trini, and Zack have known me longest, and the others have known me since our sophomore year, how are we going to handle this, if they start jumping to conclusions, it's going to be next to impossible to get them to listen, especially Kat, she wants Tommy, even if it means stabbing me in the back to get him." Kim said and he nodded with a sigh as Tommy said it for him then.

"When did you say that the letter was going to arrive again?" Tommy asked and she explained that with a sigh, "Between tomorrow and Thursday and if I know the others they are going to think that I was cheating on you and rip out our Ninjetti bonds, if the spell activates." she said and he nodded as he thought over of how to do it then. "Yeah we need to get the quintet up here, so we can go over this, but there's more than this I have to tell you regarding this." she added to him and he nodded, smiling then.

"Alright, when the letter comes I'll do damage control, but most if not all of them are going to be furious over this, if that the spell activated, before we have that meeting. But if I can get to Tanya first, she's the key now, she doesn't know you in that way, and only from the way the guys and I talk about you, once I tell her, she's our most important ally here, Jason's your twin brother and Aisha and Rocky, are not giving up our spirit bond." Tommy said and she nodded as he finished up.

"We're going to spend some time together and then Kim will teleport back to Miami tonight." Tommy added to Zordon. "Zordon we need to rearrange the rules slightly till we're out of the danger zone here. We've got whoever knows how long, before Zedd and Rita try to get him back, so we have to work at exploiting and looking for weaknesses in whatever this spell is she put on Kat if there's another she programmed her with, but if I'm the omega, I'm the neutralizer." she said and he nodded and answered her.

"Indeed you are correct Kimberly, until we are out of the danger zone, we make changes to the rules. You are my senior pink ranger and the leader of the girls, Tommy and Jason lead the boys. And with that fact in mind, what goes on between you is between you, Jason and Tommy and your parents. And you alone., so taking sides is something I'm not allowing, but tell the seven first."

"As its best with them with him and its best to tell their parents in what's goes on as what's between you is completely private. It's not their love lives, so if it doesn't concern them, then they better mind their own business, it's between you and that's it. Though the duo, Zack and Trini, start holding resentment over the fact that you just prevented whatever is going on behind Zack's back."

"From happening to you, and they're jealous you and the boys bonded this tightly to Adam and Aisha, and their parents. And I'm not taking it well at all, because this is behavior unbecoming of a power ranger. I left the door open, they chose to leave, if they're getting jealous, they have themselves to blame here." he said and she nodded in agreement to his thoughts as she said it.

"Wait check this out." she said to Tommy and looked at their uniforms. "Hey guys the crane and the falcon will fly together forever." she said and the seven all lit up in in rainbow of colors and he smiled at that. "Nice, we got to show this to the others, once we got enough of the group on our side they're going to love this. Hey Shal, it's your falcon." he said and in response her uniform flashed a pink light and his threw a white flash of light and they intertwined themselves together in response and he nodded.
