Disclaimer: Still don't own Power Rangers.

A/N: I actually wanted to work on my other story tonight, but I just didn't like the way the chapter was looking, so here I am working on this one, now complete with chapter titles! Again, thanks to the reviewers!

"Trini Kwan has been officially listed as a missing person after her disappearance last week," the news reporter on the television was saying. "She disappeared on the way to her boyfriend's house. He claims she never arrived. Police claim to have several anonymous tip-offs all pointed at a single suspect, but have yet to disclose who. Trini was president of the volleyball club and was involved in many community service activities, as well as being a devoted martial arts practitioner. Friends and family have been praying for her safe return, and the entire community has rallied together in an effort to get her back. In other news, three varsity football players at a Seattle high school found inside three lockers claim to have been attacked by Angel Grove's Green Ranger..."

Kimberly found herself in tears once again. It had been an entire week since Trini had vanished, but she knew exactly what had happened when she hadn't called like she was supposed to that night. Kim hated herself for letting Trini go over there and see David. Trini had been so sure of herself, so Kim had made her promise to call to make sure everything was alright. At one in the morning she found herself in Jason's room crying her eyes out, frantically trying to tell him what had happened. By two that same morning, Jason had been thrown out of the Whaley's house with the threat of police action if he ever returned. Since then, everyone had been avoiding David while trying to figure out just where he had Trini. They had been able to phone in to the police and all identified David as the kidnapper, even Alpha and Zordon managed to get in and make calls. Then it hit Kimberly all over again. Trini had been kidnapped. She exploded in tears once again in the middle of the youth center.

Jason grabbed her instinctively and pulled her as close to him as he possible could while rubbing her back. He didn't know what to say, or do. He was so mad. Being thrown out of David's house hadn't helped, but his parents didn't seem to be exactly the brightest people in the world. They believed David was a perfect little angel and wouldn't listen to a word Jason said. Just thinking about that made Jason burn with rage. He was removed from his thoughts by Kimberly wrapping her arms around him as tight as she could, grabbing fistfuls of his shirt. He looked down at her as she buried his head in his chest. She had been through so much lately. Her almost sister was kidnapped the same day her boyfriend was put in the hospital, and the same person was responsible for both. Jason could understand why Kimberly was clinging to him lately. She didn't want to lose a third person so important to her.

"Kimberly, look at me." Jason said, causing a teary eyed Kimberly to slowly look up at him. "It's going to be alright. We can get through this."

"Don't let anything happen to you, Rex. I need you more than anything. Promise me." Kimberly quickly said. She knew she was usually so much stronger than this, but this was different. Her friends were so important to her. Without them she was...well...this.

"Kim, don't worry..." Jason started.

"Promise me!" Kim screamed out, not even caring about the people turning to look at her.

Jason narrowed his eyes and nodded. "I promise, Kimmie." he said, and she buried her head back in his chest, the tears flowing once more. Jason just held her there. He knew she needed to let it all out, and honestly, he needed her just as much as she needed him right now.

Ernie just watched the two of them from the bar. This had been hard on him as well, seeing as how close he was to the group. He hated seeing the group torn up, and couldn't believe way these two horrible events had happened so close to each other. Shaking his head, he went back to work making a two massive plates of food for Jason and Kimberly. It was the least he could do...

Beth Whaley walked to the front door, having heard the doorbell ring. When she answered it, she was shocked to see two police officers standing there. "Officers...can I help you?" She asked slowly.

The first officer nodded. "Is there a David Whaley present?"

Beth nodded, confused why two police officers wanted to see her son. "Yes..."

"We need to talk to him. It's important." The officer stoically continued.

Beth stared at them uneasily, but finally turned and called for her son. David came strolling down the stairs a few minutes later, and his eyes widened at the sight of the two police officers.

"David Whaley?" The officer asked. David slowly nodded. "You are under arrest."

"What!? For what!?" David yelled, stepping back as the two officers forced their way in.

"You are suspected to have involvement in the kidnapping of Trini Kwan." the officer continued, ignoring David's screaming mother as they handcuffed his hands behind his back. "You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to speak to an attorney, and to have an attorney present during any questioning. If you cannot afford a lawyer, one will be provided for you at government expense. Do you understand the rights I have just read to you? With these rights in mind, do you wish to speak to me?"

"Y-Yes." David barely managed to get out, and the two officers proceeded to pull him out the door and to the car.

Tommy hated hospitals more than anything else. If you were in a hospital and weren't on the payroll, you were useless. Didn't matter if you a patient or visiting one. Doctors and nurses were in charge here, and everyone else was just in the way. He hated being useless. Luckily, his back injury hadn't been too bad, but the injury to his pride was another thing. He couldn't believe David had attacked him, and then the Thunder Megazord. Sure he was a little bit rebellious, but he liked the kid. At least he used to. Tommy shifted uncomfortably in his bed as the door opened. He couldn't help but smile as Zack and Billy walked in.

"If you've brought me something to eat that isn't hospital food...you're my best friends forever." Tommy said as he watched them sit down with two fast food bags.

They exchanged slightly fearful glances, while Tommy frowned. "Whoops..." Billy slowly said.

"I swear!" Tommy yelled. "You guys remember all kinds of things like your communicator and morpher every morning, but a guy asks for a damn cheese..." Tommy was cut off by Zack throwing a wrapped up cheeseburger at his face. Tommy just caught it and gave a big grin.

"Scared ya, didn't we?" Zack asked with a smile.

"I wasn't scared. You were the one that needed to be scared." Tommy defended himself as he unwrapped his burger, and looked up at the broken TV. "So how's life outside these walls?"

"No word on Trini, still." Zack said, looking down. "Kimberly's taking it really rough. Jason's sort of stepping up in the leader role again."

"Good. Better me in here than him." Tommy said, taking a bite of his burger.

"Don't say that, Tommy." Billy started.

"I'm serious, man. He'll lay down the law. He always does." Tommy interrupted, looking seriously between the two.

"The law's gonna lay down the law soon. Billy and Alpha rigged up the Command Center's communications and that let us send in two more calls to the police." Zack said.

Tommy smiled at the thought of Zordon calling the police station. "Well that's good. What about monsters. This is my first day really being coherent. Have I missed anything major?"

Zack leaned in closer. "Nothing," he whispered. "Zedd hasn't struck at all. We're down two Rangers and he hasn't even sent a single putty."

Tommy frowned. He didn't like the sound of that at all. "Well, tell Jas and Kim that I'm up and recovering good. I should be out soon."

Billy nodded. "That would be good. We need you, Tommy."

Tommy just nodded, and kept eating his cheeseburger, trying to figure out why Zedd wasn't striking at such a golden opportunity.

David looked around as he was brought into the police station. He was scared out of his mind. He had never fully considered that the police would be after him. There was nothing he could do now, though. The Yellow Ranger was out of his reach. Suddenly, he noticed one of the officers removing his handcuffs.

"Alright. Search him for any kind of weapons, and take him to an interrogation room." the first officer instructed the the second, causing David's eyes to widen.

No!

They couldn't do this! He wasn't a criminal, he was above criminals. He was the Green Ranger, and he wasn't going to be stopped by the police of all people. David turned and ran suddenly, stopping a few yards away from the two officers when he came to a wall with no doors or windows. He was trapped.

"Get away from me!" David yelled, turning to the officers again, who were slowly moving towards him.

"Kid, calm down..." the first officer was saying.

"No! I'm not a criminal! I'm not listening to you! I don't have to! I'm better than you all! I won't be locked away for the rest of my life! You can't control me and you'll never be able to! I'm not giving myself to you! Not without a fight!" David was hysterically screaming, and he suddenly reached behind his back. "It's morphin' time!!!"

A/N: I Wikipediaed the Miranda rights because I wasn't sure how the end went. Didn't know they had to add that extra sentence in California. Anyway. Cliffhanger. Whee!!!
