Kim groaned as she slowly but surely regained conciseness and opened her eyes to see that she was in her room at Tommy's house and was bandaged up with an IV in her arm. Struggling to sit up she didn't even notice when her bedroom door opened up and Tommy walking in. Letting out a sigh of relief Tommy walked over and helped her sit up before asking her if there was anything that she wanted and when she told him no he gave her a small smile and sat down in the chair next to her bed.

"Kim I…I'm so glad that you're up," Tommy whispered making Kim smile then groan in pain, "are you okay?"

"Yeah I'm…I'm fine Tommy," Kim said clutching her side, "but tell me how I am here and why am I not in a hospital?"

"Well it helps when you have connections," a woman with blonde hair and wearing a pink blouse with a doctor coat on.

"Kim this is Dana Grayson, pink Lightspeed ranger," Tommy said grinning.

"I came here as soon as my husband got the call, and it was a good thing too I don't think you or your yellow ranger would have came out of that without some serious damage had I not got here as soon as I did," Dana said smiling at Kim.

"Who's your husband?" Kim asked confused.

"Carter Grayson, red Lightspeed ranger and a friend of Tommy's," Dana said looking over the documents on her clipboard.

Tilting her head to the side then groaning in pain Kim barely noticed Tommy's look of concern and Dana springing into action. After everything calmed down Dana excused herself and went to check on Kira leaving the two alone in the room. After a few minutes of silence Kim finally spoke up when her concern of Kira overtook her.

"So…is Kira…she's okay right?" Kim asked catching Tommy's attention.

"Huh? Oh yeah she…she'll be okay," Tommy said taking a hold of Kim's hand, "Conner hasn't left her side since we got back."

"Oh really?" Kim asked with a smirk, "Well that's not to be unexpected."

"How so?"

"Kira may not know it but I can see it in Conner's eyes, he loves her Tommy just like…."

"Just like what?" Tommy asked confused.

Kim didn't answer and instead made an excuse that she was tired and want to sleep a little bit more before he forced them down into the headquarters to talk about what happened and their new battle strategy. Walking out of the room Tommy made his way over to where Kira was stationed and opened the door slightly to look in. To his amusement, Conner was sitting in the chair next to Kira's bed and sleeping with his head on his chest, but what really made Tommy smile was the fact that Conner was holding Kira's hand. Closing the door behind him Tommy made his way to the living room where Jason, Rocky, and Ethan were sitting and sat down in his recliner.

"So what do we do now?" Ethan asked looking at the three older rangers.

"We need to figure out who that purple ranger is first," Jason said crossing his arms in front of his chest.

"Well we can be sure that the ranger isn't a teenager," Tommy said taking his glasses off, "and she clearly has some fighting skills."

"We can't say that for sure though," Rocky pointed out, "you have to remember that once you become a ranger then you pull out your innate fighting ability."

Sitting there in silence for a little bit Tommy was never so glad to see Conner walking down the stair and prayed that he would break this silence with some information about if Kira had any ideas who the ranger was. Sighing Conner sat down on the floor next to Tommy's recliner and rubbed the back of his head before noticing that everyone that was down there was now looking at him.

"Kira isn't up yet if you wanted any information from her out of me," Conner said shaking his head.

Groaning the other male rangers slumped down in their chairs wondering what they were going to do while they waited when a thought crossed Ethan's mind.

"Hey Conner what happened while you were fighting Trent earlier?"

"Well…it's like this," Conner muttered sitting up.

Flashback

Conner growled as he and Trent clashed for what felt like the hundredth time during that fight as they continued towards the pond in the park. Wondering how in the hell they managed to get this far Conner dodged Trent's dagger and brought his staff up attempting to do some damage only to have it blocked.

"You should give up McKnight," Trent said as they came to a stop in front of the water, "your friends can't beat Messagog's monster or the nasty little surprise we have for your pink ranger."

"What do you mean nasty surprise Trent?" Conner asked as they circled around each other.

"Oh don't worry about that red I would focus more on me," Trent said dashing forward and attacking Conner.

Jumping over Trent's attack Conner kicked off a nearby tree and then kicked Trent into the nearby pond before landing at the edge and turning to face his opponent. Getting into a fighting position the two ran forward and clashed in the water. Jumping backwards Conner spun his staff above his head and brought it down only to have Trent block it and attempt to kick him in the gut. Side stepping his attack Conner and Trent continued to go at it when Conner managed to land a good attack sending Trent into the water again. Smirking Conner ran forward to finish the fight when a few blast went off in front of him stopping him in his tracks. Turning around confused he was soon sent sprawling into the water also when a purple claded figure kicked him in the chest. Groaning and looking up he watched as he saw, to his surprise, a purple ranger helping Trent up before turning her gaze to him and scoffing.

"Red ranger huh? Looks like they chose a dud this time," she taunted before vanishing.

Standing up Conner looked towards where he knew the others would be and started running hoping that everything would be okay, when he got there however he was almost too shocked to move. The other rangers were laying on the ground somewhat unconscious but for the most part they were fine. It wasn't until he saw Kira laying there on the ground that he was brought back into reality.

"KIRA!" Conner yelled running over to her, "Kira who did this to you?"

"It…it was…that purple ranger," Kira muttered before slipping into unconsciousness.

"Kira…Kira!"

"C-Conner," Ethan groaned standing up, "you're okay!"

Turning around Conner say Ethan and Tommy standing up, helping Jason up while the younger blue ranger helped Rocky. Looking around Tommy saw Kimberly on the ground demorphed and not moving and a sudden sense of fear overtook him. Jason, sensing this, let Tommy go and the black ranger all but dashed over to her while Conner picked Kira up bridal style. After that it all seemed to be a blur for the red ranger as Tommy demorphed and pulled his cell phone out before dialing a number and talking to someone. Not too long after that they were at Tommy's house and Conner saw a brown haired man in red and a blonde woman in a pink blouse and a doctor coat. Getting out of the car the woman ran over and helped Kira into the house while Tommy carried Kim in. Watching the other man in red Conner took notice when he walked over to him and clasped his shoulder before walking over to Jason and whispering something into his ear and leaving in his car.

"Who was that?" Conner asked confused.

"Carter Grayson," Jason said walking towards the house, "he's the red Lightspeed ranger, he's just here to drop off his wife to help with Kira and Kim."

Not in the mood to argue Conner nodded and followed the other rangers into the house before making his way up the stairs and taking his place by Kira's bed.

End FB

"And that's when I came down stairs," Conner muttered finishing his story.

"I see so it appears that Kira didn't figure out who the purple ranger was either," Rocky said as the front door opened up.

"Are you guys okay?" Hayley asked running in and over to where Rocky and Jason were.

"We're fine Hayley," Rocky said blushing slightly.

The next few hours went by with Dana checking the boys for any major injures before giving the all clear and saying that the girls needed to rest. After she left the male ranger continued to sit there in silence when Tommy cleared his throat and stated that it was best they all went to bed and that he informed Conner and Ethan's parents where they were.

"The strange thing is that Kira's mom didn't seem to care when I told her," Tommy said to Jason as they walked down the hall.

"Hm…I don't know what to say there man, maybe that's something we should look into,"

"No," someone said catching them off guard.

Turning around Jason and Tommy both nearly did a double take when they came face to face with a pissed off looking pink ranger glaring at them.

"Kim why aren't you in bed?" Tommy asked confused.

"I needed to use the restroom Tommy, and anyway don't you worry about Kira I'm already taking care of it," Kim said walking into her room, "I'll see you in the morning."

The two stood there in confusion before shaking their head and deciding not to worry about it too much.

"I wonder what Kim meant when she said she's taking care of it," Jason said as they made it to his and Tommy's room.

"I don't know," Tommy muttered opening his door, "but I know this, when a pink has a plan then you stay out of the way."
