Chapter 4: Consoling Kimberly

After arguing with Kat, Kimberly was still crying. Tommy and Jason walked over to try and calm her down.

"Kim, don't listen to Kat. She's just jealous." said Jason.

"No Jase, she was right. I didn't deserve to be a ranger. All I ever did was get kidnapped." stated Kim.

"That's not true Kim. Without you we could have never defeated the Terror Toad, the Spit Flower or the Guitardo." said Jason.

"Maybe, but I still slowed the team down. How many times did I get kidnapped? And then you guys had to worry about saving me instead of battling Rita or Zedds latest monsters. I should have never been a power ranger." said Kim.

"Stop saying that." interupted Tommy. "Kim, you were the heart and soul of the power ranger team. You convinced us not to give up when things got tough. And it's ok to get rescued every now and then Whether it be from Rita and Zedd, or Bulk and Skull. And even me and Jason needed to be rescued once or twice."

"Hey!" said Jason. "I did not need to be saved."

"Yes to did" retorted Kim.

"When?" asked Jason.

"Remember when Tommy was the evil green ranger and he sent you to another dimension." asked Kim.

"Yeah." replied Jason.

"And do you remember having to fight Goldar?" asked Kim.

"You know I hate when you're right." stated Jason.

This made the three of them let out a chuckle.

"Guys, I may have helped youyou in some ways, but I was still the weakest link. There are many other people who would have made a better pink ranger than me." said Kim.

"Kimberly, I chose you to be the pink ranger because you are brave, strong and courageous. You had the best spirit whichhelped in battle. Jason, Trini, Zack, Billy and Tommy all knew you were a great asset o the power ranger team." stated Zordon

"Kim, when Rocky, Aisha and I joined the team, you welcomed us with open arms. Even though you missed Jason, Trini and Zack, you didn't expect us to be just like them. You let us be who we were and you didn't try to change us." said Adam.

"Kimberly, I never met you before today. But between Tommy, Jason, Adam and Rocky, I feel like i've known you for years. You should've heard how much they talked about you. Trying to live up to the reputation of an original ranger is tough. I may be yellow, but you are the kinda of ranger I hope to be like. I would be honored to have someone say I was even close to being like you." stated Tanya.

"Plus, you're pretty hot." said Justin.

"Justin!" said Tommy.

"What?" asked Justin. "It's true."

Everyone started laughing.

"See Kim. The ranger team wouldn't be the same without you. You never gave up on anyone, and my life wouldn't be the same if I never met you."

Kimberly wiped the tears from her eyes.

"Thanks guys. You're true friends."

Everyone got together for a group hug. Then the computers started to beep again.

"What's wrong Alpha?" asked Adam.

"The computer can't get a lock on Katherine's communicator." replied Alpha.

Everyone walked over to the computers. Unknown to the other rangers, Kat teleported in and snuck up behind Kim and grabbed her.

"AAAAHHHH!" screamed Kimberly.

Everyone turned to see Kat holding Kim hostage.

"Kat! What are you doing?" asked Tommy.

"I'm solving all of my problems." replied Kat.

"And how are you going to do that?" asked Adam.

"By getting rid of Kimberly, I get rid of all my problems." stated Kat.

"You don't want to do this." said Jason.

"Yes I do." retorted Kat. "Because I refuse to lose something else I love because of princess Kimberly."

And with that, she teleported out, taking Kimberly with her.

"Tommy! Please help me!" shouted Kim as she teleported out.

"Kim!" shouted Tommy.

Everyone stood speechless and stared at the spot where Kimberly and Katherine just stood. Tommy was the first to snap out of his shock.

"Alpha, get back to tracking Kat's communicator." ordered Tommy.

"I"m on it right now Tommy." replied Alpha.

Everyone still couldn't believe what they had just saw, while Tommy refused to believe that a fellow ranger just kidnapped the girl he still loved.
