DISCLAIMER: Not mine. But I can dream.
SUMMARY: Kim's been missing for almost ten years. Where has she been and why has she shown up on the doorstep of an old friend about half dead? Better question: who are the two little girls who keep calling her Mommy?
A/N: This story has no ties to my other three Rangers stories.
The couple was just returning home from a night out, celebrating their third wedding anniversary, when they heard two voices crying. "Mommy? Mommy, wake up. Mommy, you have to wake up. He's going to find us."
The two of them turned to see two little girls kneeling in front of a figure they didn't quite recognize. They took a step toward the trio but the two little girls turned toward them, taking a defense stance. "Who are you?" asked the one in white with a sharp tone to her voice.
The second little girl looked closely at the couple standing under the porch light. "Mommy, I think we got the right house," she called behind her as she stepped closer to the couple. The two adults were shocked as they got a good look at the little girl in front of them.
"Bri, get back here!" hissed the first little girl.
"TJ, I think this is Billy and Trini. Mommy told us about them. We've been trying to get here all along." She looked up at Billy. "My mommy says that you can help us. She's sick and needs help."
"TJ, be nice," rasped the voice from the form laying on the porch. "These are my friends."
"Oh God! Kimberly?" Trini's voice cracked on her friend's name. She stepped forward. Billy went with her and knelt beside Kim.
TJ had stepped back behind her mother while Bri had walked around to take her place beside her sister. "Kimberly, I'm going to carry you into the house. Do you have the strength to put your arms around my neck?"
Kim nodded, lifting her arms and wrapping them loosely around Billy's neck. As Billy walked into the house, the two girl followed with Trini right behind them.
'What happened to you, Kimberly? Where have you been?' Billy wondered as he set his friend on his couch. He watched as the girls took up specific positions near their mother. TJ had taken up a position at her mother's head, standing as if guarding her mother. Bri had sat down on the floor, holding her mother's hand. 'Where's Tommy? And does he know that he's a father?'
