I own nothing but the story. I wish I owned the power ranger characters but sadly I do not.
I don't own any of the characters I only own the story and the soldiers.
Chapter twelve
The next morning everyone in the room awoke to Trini coming in.
As soon as the door opened Mark, Emma, and Tommy's eyes opened and they were instantly awake. It took the others a few more seconds to get there. "So what's the news doctor?" Mark immeaditly asked.
Tommy was a bit taken back as he was planning to ask Trini a similar question but waited because he knew it didn't matter who asked as she was getting ready to respond. "Everything has been looking as good as we hoped for at this point through the night. So the plan is in about 2 to 3 hours from now we will give her the medicine to wake her up. I suggest that if anyone wants to go out for coffee or breakfast now would be the time as I know that everyone will want to be here once we start with the process."
The gang all said their thank you's to Trini and she left to get ready for that was going to happen later on and to check on some other patients that she was helping with.
"Well" Emma said standing "I think that I will go across the street and get coffee. Everyone looks as though they need it. Does anyone want to come with me?" she asked looking around at everyone. "Tommy would you like to come" she said as no one jumped at the chance to go.
Tommy was undecided on how to answer as he didn't want to be rude. He didn't want to go and in fact didn't want to leave the room in general but one look at her face made him change his mind. She looked as though she wanted to speak to him about something. "Sure, I will come with you. Everyone write down what you want on a piece of paper and we will pick it up for you while we are over there."
Once everyone did as instructed Jason handed the paper to Tommy saying "I wrote down what to get Trini too. I doubt very much that she plans to leave anytime soon and that she is probably drinking the hospital stuff by the gallons by now."
Nodding Tommy and Emma left. Once they were gone Jason looked at Mark and said "I wonder why she asked Tommy to go and no you. No offense dude but didn't you find that odd?"
"Not really" Mark said "she wants to have a chance to talk with the one person that Kim holds that close to her heart." Kat looked like she wanted to say something but Mark continued with "Kim knows that they are done and its history. She feels like even if she has no right to she will still keep him there always. Maybe not the man he is now as she doesn't know him that well anymore but for sure the boy she once knew."
"But its not history or done" replied Kat "he loves her and he will want her back."
"And that my dear is what Emma and I are hoping for" replied Mark. "The tuff part will be to get her to open up to him. Her life has changed and its worlds different than what it used to be."
The gang let it end there and they all started to get lost in their thoughts waiting for Tommy and Emma to return.
"So Tommy things have to be a bit weird for you seeing her like that" Emma said as they waited for the coffee.
"It is. I have always hated seeing her hurt in any form." he said
"You feel like you should have been able to do something huh" Emma asked
"How did you know" as she hit it right on the head
"I've felt that way before when Mark was hurt. Heck even this last time he was hurt. It tore me in many directions knowing he was hurt and then that Kimberly was missing. If it did that to me I can only imagine it did the same with you."
Tommy nodded and felt relief that she understood that. She was not questioning why he wanted to be in her life but accepting that he now would be. He wanted to be there from now on and she wanted that for both him and Kim.
"I know we just met" she said as she took his hand "but you have to understand we only want whats best for her, Mark and I. Without us she would be alone without anyone in the world. We don't want that, we want her to be happy and if thats with you than we will support it all the way." She let go of his hand at that point and finished with "I truly believe that it would make her heart happy to wake in your arms in the morning and lay down there in the evening. However, if you are not a 100% sure that is what you want too than you should tell me now because everything Mark and I have done to this point was to help you two rebuild that relationship again."
Tommy nodded and said that is what I want more than anything. Just than the lady at the coffee shop handed them all the coffees. "Well than lets go" Emma said as she smiled "it is almost time to wake your lady love up."
They exited the shop and started making their way back through the mass of people that was in front of the hospital. They were almost all the way through when a little girl pulled on Tommy's shirt and said "excuse me mister but I have a question."
Emma and Tommy both stopped. He sat the coffee on the ground and took a knee on the ground so that he could quick answer the girls question. "Sure, what do you need" he answered
"Well I am making a card for the soldier in there" she said as she held up the paper she was drawing on "I need to know how to spell hero." The girl finished looking frustrated.
Tommy smiled and said "its h-e-r-o"
Gratefully the girl smiled and wrote it down. Tommy looked at her and asked "do you know what a hero is" as the girl only looked about 5 years old.
"Its someone who saves your world" she replied.
"Yep" Tommy answered feeling his heart warm "its deffinately someone who saves your wold."
"Thanks mister" she said as she sat down and started drawing flowers on it.
"Would you like us to take it to her" Emma asked
"Not yet. I'm not done with it. There is a basket up front for anyone dropping off a card or something so I can put it there." she replied
Nodding Tommy picked back up the coffee and he and Emma went back inside and up to Kim's room. A few minutes after they got back inside and handed out the coffee Trini came in.
"Hey Trini, Tommy and Emma went on a coffee run and they picked you up one" said Jason
"Thanks guys" Trini smiled gratefully "um the hospital decided that since we are already set up that we should just go ahead and wake her up now. Is everyone ready for that?" She looked at all the faces in the room and they all nodded. "I will go and get the medicine then."
"Lets do it" said Mark
Five minutes later Trini came back with a needle full of medicine and injected it into Kim's IV bag. "Now we just wait for her to wake up" she said
