A/N I DO NOT OWN ANYTHING!


About a week went by and little by little Kimberly started to trust the others again. There still was no news on her parents but that was all going to change.

One afternoon everyone was hanging out at the park having some lunch enjoying the nice weather. They were laughing and joking when Tommy's cell phone rang.

"Hello?"

A big smile spread a cross his lips as he heard what the person on the other end said.

"Really? Oh my gosh that's awesome!"

Everyone looked at him wondering what was going on.

"Yeah I'll do that and get back to you with the details. Thanks so much bye!"

Tommy hung up and lifted Kim from his lap and stood up spinning her around. Squeals of giggles escaped her lips as she wrapped her arms around his neck holding on.

"Whoa, Tommy what was all that about?" Jason asked.

"That was Cody," he smiled.

"Cody who?"

"One of my buddies who is a Paleontologists, I had him help with finding Kim's parents and they did it."

"What?" Kimberly shrieked.

"Yep, Your parents have been found."

"Oh…well now what…" Kimberly asked?

As much as it hurt to admit she would never have her parents back. Their bodies may have been found but they were still dead and they weren't coming back.

"Now we make arrangements for the funeral and give your parents what they deserve."

She nodded as tears filled her eyes. "They didn't deserve this…."

Sighing Tommy pulled her closer to him and rubbed her back.

"I know they didn't Beautiful."

"I did. That should have been me. I denied them sex I disobeyed their rules. I told on them it should have been me."

"No Beautiful it shouldn't have been you. You did nothing wrong and neither did your parents."

"I feel like I did."

"But you didn't!" Jason told her.

"I don't want a funeral anymore. I just want them back."

Kimberly buried her face into Tommy's chest and finally let the grief of her parent's death out. Tommy and the others just did the best they could to comfort her.


The next day Kimberly was a little more willing to do the funeral and the others helped her so everything was perfect.

"Hey Kim I hate to ask this but it's been bugging me for a while now," Jason started. "Last I checked your parents couldn't stand being in the same room with each other why would they want to be buried next to each other?"

Kimberly sighed. She knew this question was coming. "They had fallen back in love during their search to find me. If they didn't die they would have gotten back together. It's funny because as I kid I used to thing me getting her hurt would bring them back together. Turns out me getting hurt gets them back together but it also gets them killed."

"Kimberly it is not your fault."

"If I didn't need saving they wouldn't have gotten shot. If I had been stronger and fought them off better they wouldn't have gotten shot."

"Kimberly Ann Hart this is NOT your fault. It's the person who shot them!"

"I don't want to do this anymore…"

She looked down at her feet. Tommy wrapped his arms around her and kissed her temple.

"Why don't you go on up and take a nap. You were up half the night."

She nodded and slowly made her way upstairs.

"I'll be up in a little bit to check on you."

They had been down in the lab working on the preparations for the funeral when Jason asked her that question. When she was out of ear shot he sighed.

"She is hurting so much. These past two years have been killer on her."

"She doesn't deserve this." Trini said.

"Maybe we can cheer her up. We haven't had an all girls shopping trip is forever. Maybe all Kim needs is a girl's night out." Aisha offered.

"I don't think Kim will be up for anything until after the funeral." Tommy sighed.

He was right too, the next couple of days Kimberly just laid around the house. She didn't eat much and she barely slept. Tommy was surprised she could still function with the amount of sleep she had been getting.


Finally it was time for the funeral. Kimberly clung to Tommy as tight as she could. It was small only the rangers and their parents attended but that was just the way she wanted it. Surround by her friends and family. After speaking the Pastor invited anyone to get up and speak. All it took for Kim was a squeeze from Tommy's hand and she got up and spoke.

"Hello um…thanks for coming. I thought I'd be too hysterical today to get up here and speak but I had a dream last night in which I saw my mom and dad. They spoke to me and told me they were happy and weren't in any pain. They told me to grief if I had to, but then to move on and continue my life. At first I thought it would be mission impossible, till I heard another voice. I couldn't see the body of this person only his head and he told me that I could make it through this mission with my friends by my side and I knew that was true. He also said "May the power protect you" Kimberly looked at the rangers to see if they had gotten the message behind the message. They nodded at her and smiled. "When I woke up I realized I have been grieving for my parents for almost two years. Although I grieved alone I still did it I still learned to accept what happen. My point is..,today shouldn't be about sadness from a loss but a celebration of two amazing parents, friends, aunts and uncles to some because they deserve this. They risked their life trying to save me so they deserve this. I can finally move on knowing they are at peace…I…I'm going to miss you mom and dad I love you so much".

Kimberly finished her speech and went to sit back down in her seat. Once she sat down she buried her face in her hands and cried. It had taken everything in her not to cry up there. Tommy and Jason wrapped their arms around her giving what comfort they could. It took Kim a few days after the funeral to recover but by the weekend she had fully come to terms with her parents passing and could focus on healing from the rape. During the funeral she had gained more trust for the others. It was enough for her to feel comfortable going out shopping with the girls without the guys. Tommy was so proud of her. Little did he know that trust wasn't going to last very long


The girls had some lunch then walked around having fun like they used to. They met up with Adam and Rocky a little bit later too. All that fun was going to be ruined though. They were in one store looking around when Kimberly felt eyes on her. She looked around and didn't see anyone but she couldn't shake the feeling. As she was trying on a shirt in the dressing she heard "his" voice "Nice chest Kim".

Kimberly whimpered. She held the shirt up to cover her chest and tried to find him. Some caught her eye crawling on the floor. She looked down and saw Dan crawling over from the next stall.

She screamed and went to run but he grabbed her ankles. Trini heard the scream and got worried.

"Kim are you ok?" she asked

"Trini call T…." her voice became muffled as Dan cover her mouth with his head. She struggled but stopped when cold metal was pressed to the side of her head.

"No here is how this is going to work. You aren't going to scream or make a scene and you won't get hurt. You do scream and I'll shoot."

She nodded and he let go of her mouth. He stepped out of the dressing room making the rangers gasp.

"Let her go now!" Trini growled.

"Make me small fry…careful though if you do Kimberly gets a bullet in her little head."

"Let her go!" Adam said.

"Or what, you can't fight me. One wrong move and Kimberly dies." Dan taunted.

"LET HER GO!" Trini screamed lunching forward to attack but Adam and Rocky held her back.

"Don't hurt Kim. What do you want money? How much? We will give you what you want just don't hurt Kim." Aisha said.

"I don't want money I want Kimberly. I'm not going to hurt her…much…" Dan smirked as she was dragged from the store.

"TOMMY!"

That was the last sound heard from Kimberly before she was gone. Trini pulled from Adam and Rocky's grasp and ran after him but it was too late he was gone.

"KIMBERLY!" she screamed in tears.

She grabbed her cell phone and called Jason.

"Hello?"

"Jasonshe'sgoneItriedtostohimbutIcouldn'thetookherandIdon' me!"

"Whoa, whoa baby slow down what?"

Before she could answer Adam took the phone from her hands and hung up.

"What was that for?" Trini screeched.

"Are you crazy? Tommy is going to kill us when he finds out. You know Jason will tell him." Adam told her.

"At least we can find Kim!"

"Tommy is going to have our heads!"

"So what! Dan is going to kill her!"

"YOU'RE NOT HELPING HER BY CRYING LIKE A BABY TO JASON!" Rocky yelled.

Trini took off running. She didn't know where she was going she just ran. She bumped into someone but didn't say anything. She just cried.

"Is everything all right Miss?"

Trini looked up and saw a Police Officer.

"He took her. She is gone. I'm sorry. I tried to stop him." she whimpered.

"It's all right Miss we are going to save your friend." the Officer said gently.

He took off his jacket and put it around her from the shock. They took her back to the store and took questions from everyone. No one could get a word out of Trini. She refused to speak to anyone. Finally Jason and Tommy arrived. They ran to the cop.

"What's going on?"

"A girl was kidnapped here not too long ago. We'd be on our way but there is still one person who had yet to give her statement," the cop replied nodding his head toward Trini.

Jason's heart broke at the site of his girl friend curled up on the floor shaking and crying.

"Officer that is my girlfriend, could I go over and see if I can help her?"

The cop nodded and Jason went over to Trini and pulled her into him.

"Shhh baby shhh I'm here it's all right." he soothed.

"Jason he took her and I tried to stop her but I couldn't. Now she is gone again!" Trini cried.

"This isn't your fault."

"He is right Miss" the officer said.

"She was in the dressing room trying on a new shirt and she screamed. When I asked what was wrong she was going to say for me to call someone but her voice was too muffled…" Trini started feeling more comfortable with Jason there. "…A man walked out of her dressing room with a gun to her head…I told him to let her go I told him but he didn't listen. I went to attack but Adam and Rocky held me back. He walked away with her at gun point." Trini finished and broke out into tears.

The officer finished his writing before getting up and walking away leaving Jason to help her knowing he couldn't. Tommy stood in the doorway still in shock. Kim was gone again. Kim was back in the hands of that psycho and there was nothing he could do. After comforting Trini, Jason and her went over to Tommy and try to comfort him.

"I'm sorry. I wanted to save her but Adam and Rocky held me back…" Trini whimpered.

"I know you tried and that's all I would have asked…" Tommy replied.

He just walked away with his head down. Sighing Jason and Trini followed.


With Kimberly, she and Dan had finally reached their stop. It was a little house in the middle of the woods. Dan grabbed Kim by the hair and dragged her inside. He threw her into a empty bedroom and slammed the door locking it preventing her from leaving. Kimberly scrambled into a corner and pulled her knees up to her chest. She wrapped her arms around her knees and buried her face into her knees. The room was dark It had no light or windows. All that was in the room was a mattress. The room was small enough to be a closet. Kimberly whimpered hoping she would be found soon.
