Several years passed since Kimberly had her first Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Birthday with Tommy. Both of them remained very close over the years. Until they were in their teens, they sat out on the porch and looked at the stars and constellations'. They didn't make friends very well at school, so they spent all their time at school together. Jan and James requested that Tommy and Kimberly were in the same class every year. When Tommy and Kimberly were Freshmen, James got a new job. The Oliver family moved from Seattle to Angel Grove California.
When they moved to Angel Grove, a lot of things changed. Tommy became the evil green ranger and almost destroyed the power rangers. But, the power rangers were able to free him from Rita's spell. Tommy joined Jason Scott, Billy Cranston, Trini Kwan, Zach Taylor, and Katherine Hillard. Kimberly didn't get a long well Kat and Jason at all. And Tommy and Jason didn't get a long either. Since Jason and Tommy didn't get a long, Tommy didn't spend time with the other rangers. Especially after he lost his powers as the green ranger. Shortly after he lost his powers, he became the white ranger. A few weeks after Tommy became the white ranger, Jason,Trini, and Zach passed on their power so they could go to peace conference. Rocky, Adam, and Aisha took over as the yellow, red, and black rangers.
Tommy and Kimberly started spending more time with the rangers. Kimberly and Kat had a huge rivalry because they both were interested in Tommy. The only reasons why Kat was interested in Tommy was because she knew him when they were younger and she knew that Tommy and Kimberly were very close. She was sorry she wrote him a letter, when they were kids. Kat was sorry that she ended the friendship with him because he was closer to Kimberly. Tommy thought that Kat had changed over the years and decided to give her a chance. He went on a couple of dates with her. Tommy began to wonder if he truly loved Kimberly or Kat.
Kimberly still lived with the Oliver family. But, she had her own room. Almost every afternoon, Tommy and Kimberly would walk home together. One day Tommy had a karate match, so Kimberly had to walk home alone. She ran into Rita on the way home. Rita casted a spell on her to make her work for her. Kimberly was able to transform into a cat to spy on the rangers. She even became a cat monster and the rangers defeated her in battle. Rita wanted a power coin, so Kimberly stole Kat's power coin, while they were fighting Tengas. Kat's life force was being drained until Zordon could cut her connection from the power coin. Weeks later, Kat learned that there was a coach from Florida looking for someone to train for the Pan Global Games. While Kat was training, she hit her head on the diving board. Kimberly was near by and called for help. While Kat was recovering, the rangers learned that Kimberly was under Rita's spell.
"Do you know how Tommy became a ranger?" asked Kat.
"No," answered Kimberly.
"I was under one of Rita's spells too," admitted Tommy.
"My best friend was the evil green ranger!?" gasped Kimberly. "We lived under the same roof and you didn't tell me!?"
"Zordon, asked us not to tell anyone," stated Billy.
All of them went out side to for a walk. Kat had decided not be in diving competitions', which she had done for years. Rita and Zedd sent a message saying if they didn't turn Kimberly over by the end of the day, they'd throw Ninjor into the sea of sorrow. Kimberly felt guilty and began to wonder what she should do. That night at dinner she didn't touch her dinner. Tommy asked his parents if they could camp out in the back yard. Both of them agreed. After dinner, they took their showers got in their pajamas. Tommy got out their sleeping bags and tent. It had been a few years since, Tommy and Kimberly had been camping.
Kimberly put her pink robe over her night gown and slipped on her slippers and went outside. Tommy sitting outside in his green robe and white pajama set. For over an hour they watched the stars. Both them talked about making wishes on stars, when they were little. Around 11:45, James came outside and told them that they needed to go to bed. Tommy noticed that she had something on her mind.
"Can't sleep?"
"You have to let Rita and Zedd have me."
"Beautiful, I'm not going to it happen. They aren't going to give you a welcome home party."
"I know. But, need to make things right."
"I think I know what we can do. Billy could create a device that will put us in a force field around us. We could get Ninjor back. I will call Billy in the morning."
"Why are you going to get in the force field?"
"When we younger, you always took care of me. I'm just doing the same thing."
"What about your power coin and power morpher?"
"I'll leave them at the command center."
Tommy moved his sleeping bag closer to Kimberly's and he held her all night, while they slept. The following morning Tommy called Billy to make a device. He told Tommy it would be ready in two hours. Tommy and Kimberly picked up their tent and sleeping bags and went inside for breakfast. They quickly ate breakfast, brushed their teeth, and changed into jeans and tee shirts. Tommy met Billy, Rocky, Adam, and Aisha at the command center. He gave Alpha his power coin and morpher to hang on to. All four of them teleported to the park and met Kimberly.
"Tommy are you sure about this?" asked Rocky.
"I'm sure," answered Tommy. "I'm not going to let them have Kimberly. It could be a trick."
"What if it is a trick?" asked Aisha. "You don't have your power coin and morpher to protect Kim, if they take you."
"They are more likely to give us Ninjor," smiled Tommy. "If you offer Kim and an extra bonus."
Billy placed the device by a tree. Tommy and Kimberly stood in the center of the park. All of them could tell Kimberly was unsure of Tommy idea.
"Rita, we have a bonus offer for you," stated Adam. "We're going to give you Kim and our leader."
Rita, Goldar, Rito and Tengas appeared. They were holding a blue jar. The rangers asked for Ninjor and Rito threw the jar down.
"Give us your leader and the girl," demanded Rita.
"We're all yours," smiled Tommy.
"Now, Billy!" shouted Adam.
Billy put the force field up around Tommy and Kimberly. Rocky, Adam, Aisha, and Billy morphed into their ninja forms. They started fighting Tengas. Adam got a hold of the jar and opened it... and it was empty. While they were fighting Tengas, one of the Tengas found the device that Billy hide behind a tree. It destroyed the device.
"Tommy, Kim, the device has been destroyed!" yelled Billy. "There's nothing to protect you any more!"
"Tommy, what will we do?" asked Kimberly.
He quickly grabbed Kimberly and held her close. Rito came up behind them both and grabbed them. Before the others could help Tommy and Kimberly, Rito disappeared with them. Rita, Goldar, and the Tengas left too.
"It's my fault," cried Billy. "I should have been watching the device."
"It's no body's fault," reassured Aisha.
Meanwhile, Tommy and Kimberly were in a cell down in the dungeon. Rito was guarding the cell. He had the keys and they were trying to quietly take the keys, so they could escape.
"My back and shoulders hurt," complained Rito.
"I know of something that will help," stated Kimberly. "But, you'll have to come here."
Rito came over by the cell and Kimberly was massaging his shoulders. For once she didn't complain; Tommy knew that she'd be complaining later on. Rito began to get drowsy. Tommy noticed there was pink light coming out of the box on the table.
"I think I know what that is," whispered Tommy. "It's the pink power coin."
"As soon as we get the keys, we will wait until Rito is gone," answered Kimberly. "We'll unlock the door, grab the coin, and find a way out."
"I like that idea," Tommy whispered back.
"What's that on the table?" asked Kimberly.
"I can't tell you," answered Rito.
"You can trust me," lied Kimberly.
"It's the pink power coin," answered Rito. "But, don't tell anyone I said that."
Rito began to doze off and Tommy quietly grabbed the keys. Zedd called Rito to come upstairs and he left the dungeon. Tommy quickly unlocked the door they walked out of the cell. Kimberly shut the door behind them. She walked over to the box with the pink power coin and took it. Rita came down stairs to bottle Tommy and Kimberly up to send them to the sea of sorrow. She saw they had the coin.
"Hand the coin over!" demanded Rita.
"Not a chance Rita," replied Kimberly. "I've had enough of your game."
Back at the command center, the other rangers were trying to locate Tommy and Kimberly. But, they weren't having much luck. Alpha got a reading about the pink power coin.
"The pink power coin is in the hands of good again!" cried Alpha.
"Do you think Tommy and Kim have it?" asked Kat.
"If so, we can get Tommy, Kim, and the pink power coin," declared Billy. "I will teleport the coin here. It will be a few minutes."
Meanwhile, Rita was chasing Tommy and Kimberly around the table.
"I said hand it over," ordered Rita.
"And I said forget it!" replied Kimberly.
Tommy noticed the Tengas were summoned. He quickly grabbed Kimberly. Before the Tengas could do anything, Tommy and Kimberly were teleported to the command center.
"We're alive," cried Kimberly.
She noticed they were in a room with a robot, a giant floating head, and the rest of the rangers. There was circular table with buttons. She also noticed there was a clear globe.
"Wow this place is amazing," gasped Kimberly.
"Kimberly, I am Zordon," stated the floating head. "The rangers and I wish to welcome you to our command center."
"Katherine, I have something that belongs to you," said Kimberly.
She pulled the pink power coin out of her pocket and gave it to Kat.
"How'd you get the power coin?" asked Kat.
"Let's just say Tommy and I were in the right place at the right time," smiled Kimberly. "Kat could you meet me at the youth center later on today."
Zordon teleported Kimberly out of the command center. She went to the mall and got a gymnastics leotard. Tommy and Kat came into the youth center. Kimberly was on the balance beam.
"I can't believe she's up there," gasped Tommy.
Kimberly did a cart wheel on the balance beam. Both Tommy and Kat were surpised that she was still able to do some of her gymnastics stuns. It had been over a decade, since Kimberly had gotten on the balance beam due to her injuries.
"What made you decide to get back on the balance beam?" asked Kat.
"You did Katherine," answered Kimberly. "Now you need to do something for both of us. Get back up on the diving board and go the competition. You've been waiting a long time for this."
A few weeks later, Kat competed in a diving match. Tommy, Kimberly, Rocky, Adam, Aisha, and Billy were there to watch her. Kat was the best in the whole show. All of her friends gave her a party. During the party, Kat was offered the chance to compete in the Pan Global Games. But, she'd have to go to Florida.
At the command center, Zordon and the other rangers were talking to Kat about the Pan Global Games. She didn't want to leave the team. Even though she was a bully as a child, she had changed. She turned out to be a good person. Kat was even Tommy's girl friend for three years.
"Kat do you realize what you are giving up?" asked Billy.
"I do," answered Kat. "This is something I've wanted to do since I was a child. I had a chance once before. But, I blew it. I pulled a lot of mean tricks on Tommy and Kim."
"Kat you are a changed person," declared Tommy. "I don't want to loose you. But, I can't let you not take this opportunity. It wouldn't be fair."
"I really want to go," admitted Kat. "Only if it is okay with you all."
All of them were okay with it. But, they wouldn't have a pink ranger. They would have to find a replacement and that would take time.
"I think I know of someone who would make an amazing power ranger," said Kat.
Alpha teleported someone to the command center.
"Hi, everyone," smiled Kimberly.
"I talked to Kim and Alpha about this," explained Kat. "Just in case you all got me to change my mind."
Kat got out her power coin and handed it to Kimberly.
"The power is all yours," stated Kat.
"I promise I will carry on as the pink ranger," promised Kimberly.
"Kimberly you will command the pink shark cycle," explained Zordon. " And you will command the pink crane zord, if willing. In the meantime, you'll share the white shogun zord with Tommy."
"You all have been the best friends that I've every had," stated Kat. "I'm going to miss all of us being together."
All of the rangers helped Kat pack up and went to the airport with her. It was an emotional time for them, especially Tommy. His girl friend would be thousands of miles away from him.
"Tommy, I promised to keep in contact with you," promised Kat. "I wish that things were different, when we were younger. But, I'm glad that we met again and we became friends. I'm happy to be your girl friend."
"Kat, I'll miss you too," added Kimberly.
"Kim, thanks for giving me a second chance," smiled Kat.
Her plane was getting ready to take off and she had to leave. All of the rangers left the air port, expect Tommy. He stood there and watched her plane take off. He watched it, until it was no longer in sight. After the plane was gone, he slowly began to walk out of the air port. Tommy decided that he was going to walk home alone.
When he walked out on to the street, he was surprised to see Kimberly was waiting for him.
"The others are going to the park," explained Kimberly. "I told them I had something to do and couldn't go."
"What came up, all of a sudden?" asked Tommy.
"Nothing," admitted Kimberly. "I knew you'd be walking home alone. And I wanted to walk with you."
Tommy smiled and took her by the hand. They started to walk home. It was a long walk home. Kimberly could tell he was missing Kat. Even though she would never admit it, Kimberly loved Tommy. She realized that he was with Kat and didn't want to come between them.
