Chapter One
She couldn't believe it. Dr. Thomas Oliver was finally married to the girl of his dreams, and she had to go back to Reefside to see him. She had missed the wedding and he and Kimberly were just getting back from their honeymoon, which was convient because she had just gotten off tour. She wasn't going back to see just him, though. the rest of her "partners in crime fighting", or so Ethan called it were going to be there for a little reniun. Sometimes she missed fighting bad guys and saving the world, but that part of her life was over. Another part of it was just begining.
Kira Ford was one of the most well known singers in the country, and in some other countries as well. She had toured with Kylee Styles, one of her best friends, and along with some other great bands who were just starting on their road to fame. She had even toured by herself, which was a really great experience. But during all those tours she had never forgotten about her friends. They wouldn't let her. They were always poping up before the start of a show, during a photo shoot, and CD sinings. But now she was going home.
Kira wasn't the only one who had gotten their dream come true. Conner McKnight was now a pro soccer star. He had played in the olyimpics and on many other pro teams. He was well known all over the country as well. Almost every soccer team in the world wanted him on their team, and if they didn't, that was because they had never seen him play. He had even opened up soccer camps all over the country for kids who wanted to play soccer.
As of Ethan James. He was the best computer software desingers in the world. When he had graduated computer school(note to self: find out what kind of school that is called.) he said, "Move over Bill Gates, here I come!" They all got a good laugh out of that one. He had desinged a lot of different, well played games, he had even desinged computes and and gaming systems to play them on.
Trent was a comicbook writer. He had about five different series of them and he made millions of dollars. He also helped disinge the same games as Ethan. But that was all Kira really knew about him. Since their breakup, they hadn't really kept in touch, despite her best efforts. She had invited him to her concerts, but he never came. She had tried to call him, but he had never returned her calls. She would have belived he had fallen of the face of the earth if it wasn't for tabloids.
Dr.O still tought at the high school. When she had asken him why, he had just shrugged and said, "I can't just walk away when I have the opportoonity to teach young people. I just love to see their faces light up when they learn something new." It was when he had visited his home town, Angel Grove when he had met Kimberly Hart agian. At first they had been skitish around each other but soon after they had hit it off agian. Not long after that they had started dating agian. They had liked beining together so much that they had decided to get married.
Kira felt exciment bubble inside of her as she felt the plane start to land. Conner was supposed to be there to pick her up, but she wouldn't be surprised if he had forgotten. Sometimes he took the dumb jock routine a little to far. She remembered back when they were still teenagers how he would say some of the stupidset things that would make her boil with rage, but then he would say something so sweet that would make her melt inside.
She stood up as the plane stopped and she reached above her head to get her carry-on bag. As she walked off the plane into the crowd of people, she looked around for a sign of anyone she knew.
"Kira!" She looked around to see who had yelled at her when she saw a guy with a head of auburn colored hair waving at her.
"Conner!" she yelled as she started to run toward him. As she got near him, she threw her carry-on bag on the ground at his feet, and jumped into his arms, her legs around his waist and her arms around his neck. "I'm so glad to see you agian! I missed you so much," she exclaimed to him.
"I missed you too, Kira," he told her, setting her down. "What are you wearing?" he asked.
"Oh, this? What you don't like it?" she asked, hurt shining in her eyes. She was still wearing the same yellow that everyone had come used to seeing her in, but she wasn't wearing as much black as she used to. And usually she wore a skirt over a pair of pants, though every once in a while she would just wear the skirt, like today. Her make-up wasn't as heavy as it used to be either. It was just a light yellow today with a light pink lipgloss.
"No it's not that. I'm just used to you dressing differently. You look a little less goth today," he said, trying to soothe over the hurt.
Kira couldn't explain it. For some reason she had wanted to dress up. She didn't know why. "Heavy make-up is not a good thing to wear on a plane, trust me I learned that the hard way, and I just felt like wearing a plain skirt today," she said, trying to figure out why his opinion was so important to her. Why had his opinion alway been so important to her?
"I like it though. You look great," Conner said with a grin.
"So have you met Kim yet?" Kira asked, trying to change the subject.
"Yeah, she's really something. I've watched her make Dr. O so mad and then turn around and make him melt. It's pretty intertaining," he said.
"The time I met her, it looked like her and Dr. O were conjoined at the hip. They couldn't stay away from each other."
As they had been talking, they had been walking toward the baggage claim. When they got there, they retrived her bag and started to walk toward the door. When they got outside, Kira spotted Conner's prized red Mustang almost instantly. No matter how many times she had tried to talk him into it, he had never let her drive it.
"Hey, Conner, will you ever let me drive you car?" she asked him.
"Let me think about that for a second," he said dryly. "Yeah, you can."
"I can!" Kira said excitedly.
"Yeah, when hell freezes over."
"Oh Conner, quit being so mean. Just let me drive it once and I'll never ask you agian," she said with a mock pout.
"No!" Conner cried, opening the trunk so she could put her luggage in the back.
"Wow. You're snappy today. What's up with you?" Kira asked cuirously.
"I don't know. I've just been under a lot of stress lately." Conner stalked to the driver side of his car and yanked the door open. Kira sat down beside him and watched him bang his head lightly agianst the stearing wheel.
"Conner, you didn't have to come pick me up today. I could have caught a cab. I've read some of the things that have been going on with you. I would have understood," she said soothingly.
Conner turned to her and said, "That's the thing. I wanted to be here today. It's not you're fault I'm in such a bad mood. I'm sorry."
"It's fine, Conner." She paused for a second. "Come on, Conner. I'm ready to see the rest of the gang agian."
He turned to the front agian adn started the car. Putting it into gear, he started to pull away.
"Conner, do you miss it?" she asked him suddenly.
"Miss what?"
"Crime fighting; kicking Mesagog's butt; all the excitment?" she replied.
"Sometimes. I don't miss all of it though. I know I don't miss the cut in my social life. That sucked," he said off-handedly.
"You're still the same, Conner. Ever still the jock," she teased.
"You can't tell me there hadn't been times when you had been writing a song and it was suddenly interrupted by a monster?" he asked.
"There was times," she replied. She was looking out the window as they were talking and she started to recgonise the scenery. "Lord, do you realise how much I've missed this place? I haven't noticed it until now. It feels good to be home agian." She looked over at him and smiled. "Have you ever felt that way on your road to fame?"
"Yeah. Espically after the last few months," he said.
Kira couldn't hold back her curiosity anymore. "So, how is the case going?" she questioned.
"It could be going better. I just hope i win," he whispered.
"Don't worry, Conner. If the judge doesn't rule with you then he or she is crazy," she supported. She reached over and rested her hand on his arm. "You're the best person I know. You also make a really good father."
"Thanks Kira. I really needed that."
"I mean it." Kira then looked around and noticed that they were in the main part of the town, stopped at a red light.
"So, do you want to go to your hotel or do you want to go to Dr. O's?" he questioned.
She looked at him and smiled. "Take me home, Conner," she said. Conner smiled, knowing what she meant.
During the short drive to Tommy's house, they talked about little things. They mostly talked about their old times as power rangers. When they pulled into Tommy's big driverway, she smiled. She was finally home.
