Summary: A ranger suffers an injury. Will they still be able to be a Ranger?

Time Period: Set during Rita and Tommy is the Green Ranger.

Kimberly is asleep in her bed, when her alarm goes off.

"I can't believe it is 5 already, Oh well time to get up." Kim said yawning and giving herself a minute to open her eyes.

Kimberly gets up and changes into her leotard and then heads downstairs to the basement to practice her gymnastics for the competition she has coming up in this weekend.

Upstairs Jason is still sleeping. There is a knock on the door, Jason's 10 year-old-sister Lesley comes in and walks over to his bed.

"Jason, Mom says it is time to get up and tell Kimberly to stop practicing and to start getting ready for school." Lesley said to her older brother.

"Okay, I'll go get her." Jason replied.

As he got out of bed, he was thinking about how his parents seem to take in strays. People, that is instead of cats. First it was Kimberly 7 years ago, when her mother died of cancer and her father had a heart attack only a few months before that. Poor Kimberly, she was only 8 and lost both parents only 3 months apart. His cousins were also living there as they too were left orphans when their parents died in a car accident.

Jason went down to the basement area that he shares with Kimberly and the rest of the family as well. It is just a regular practice area. Jason opened the door slowly, not wanting to scare Kimberly. He waited till she finished her flips.

"Kimberly, it is time to stop practicing and go get ready for school." He told her.

Kimberly took a quick shower and was ready to go in no time. Jason and Kimberly usually walk to school, as it only a few blocks. Their parents offer to drive them, but they would rather walk.

"So you were looking good, are you ready for this weekend?" Jason asked.

"Yes, I sure hope you know who doesn't bother us." Kimberly replied referring to Rita. If Rita was listening, she didn't want to give her any ideas.

Jason smiled at her; life sure had become crazy since they became Rangers.

Kimberly was at her locker grabbing her stuff for class. When the two biggest bullies in school came up to her, Kimberly saw them coming towards her.

"Great, Bulk and Skull! When are they ever going to get the picture that I am not interested." Kim said to herself shaking her head.

"Hey babe, need a strong man to carry your books home for you." Skull asked.

"I already have one those. If I want someone to carry my books, I would just ask Jason." Kim said smiling.

"Oh yeah and why would you ask that dweeb." Bulk said.

Kimberly rolled her eyes at them. Not only were they bullies they had IQ's lower then their shoe size.

"Because Bulk, I was adopted by Jason's parents. He is my brother." Kimberly said.

Bulk still confused by what she was getting at. Kim shook her head; they had a way of making her frustrated.

"Therefore, I live with him. You know in the same house." Kimberly said trying to get it though their thick skulls.

"You can always move in with me." Skull offered.

"Yeah but I don't live at the circus, unlike some people I know, meaning you two." Kimberly told them and then she tried to leave.

Bulk and Skull were not through with her just yet and Bulk was upset that she insulted him. According to Bulk the only one allowed to insult anyone is him. So he grabbed her wrist and pulled her into him.

"Let me go!" Kimberly commanded.

Kim thought about using her powers, but that would only get her in trouble since it would be breaking one of the 3 rules she agreed to follow when she became a Ranger.

Bulk said nothing, but wouldn't let her go. Kimberly found a way to get him to let go of her by stomping on his foot. It caught Bulk off guard and Kim managed to get away. Kimberly took off and hid in the closest bathroom. There alone she let the tears fall.
