A/N: I already know that Curtis' actor was Zack's voice double until Zack was written out with Jason and Trini, Iceranger32.


Sophie and Billy kept their eyes on Alpha working on the new Ranger.

"Alpha, recheck the quantum morphin pods and power away." Zordon instructed Alpha. "We can't leave anything to chance."

"This is incredible." Billy said.

"Not to mention, unbelievable." Sophie added.

"Right, Zordon." Alpha said. "Quantum pods are on-line. We're nearly finished."

"A new Ranger." Billy muttered.

"But who is it?" Sophie asked.

"I don't know." Billy replied. "It could be anyone."

"It is time to start powering up the morph control circuits." Zordon told Alpha.

Billy and Sophie then put their faces up.

"Go slowly, Alpha." Zordon advised. "We can't afford to overload."

"We've got to get back to the others." Billy said.

"I agree." Sophie said. "They need to know what we found out."

They both then got on their feet and went back out to find the others.

(The palace)

Lord Zedd was sitting in his throne.

"My Scarlet Sentinel is magnificent." he said, triumphantly.

"The Rangers have retreated." Goldar explained.

"Yes, without Zordon, their powers are inadequate." Lord Zedd said. "But they'll be back, and then we shall crush them."

"What do we do in the meantime, master?" Goldar asked.

"We procced with my plan." Lord Zedd explained.

(Billy's house)

The Rangers had all regrouped at Billy's house and were all in the lab as Billy discussed what he and Sophie did at the Command Center.

"Well, after re-examining the disc the information that I gained from it...allowed me and Soph to access the door of light." Billy explained.

"Billy, no offence." Kimberly said. "Can you just cut to the chase."

"Yeah. What exactly did you and Sophie find at the Command Center?" Trini asked.

Billy turned to the others, while Sophie was beside him.

"Do you want to tell them or shall I?" Sophie asked Billy, sighing.

"Zordon and Alpha are in a hidden chamber making a new Ranger." Billy explained.

Jason opened his mouth wide.

"What?" he asked in shock.

"Are you sure?" Zack asked.

Sophie nodded.

"Who is it? Do you know?" Kimberly asked.

"Where exactly are they?" Trini asked.

"Could you be wrong?" Kimberly asked.

"Listen, we're sure." Billy said. "That's all we know."

"And we can't both be wrong, Kim." Sophie said, answering Kimberly's last question. "We saw the new Ranger suit with our own eyes."

"Well, that would explain why the Command Center was basically shut down." Jason realized.

"Exactly." Billy said. "All the energy's being concentrated into the creation of this new Ranger." Billy explained.

"Man. If ever we needed some help, we could sure use some now." Zack said.

"How come Tommy couldn't have gotten these powers?" Kimberly asked. "I mean he's already one of us."

"Kim's right." Zack said. "I mean, who's this new guy?"

He then sighed.

"We're a team." he said.

"Yeah, we've all been friends for so long." Trini said.

"Guys, we got to get a grip." Jason sighed. "I'm sure that Zordon's got a good reason for this."

"Jason's right." Billy said. "Lord Zedd's monsters are far superior to Rita's with a vast amount of strength. We need a new Ranger."

"No matter who it is, guys." Sophie said, taking Billy and Jason's side.

"Are you sure you don't know who it is?" Kimberly asked.

"We're sure, Kim." Sophie said. "We saw the suit, but the helmet was still on. It could be Richie, Curtis, Dave...just about anyone."

"Well, I still think Tommy should've gotten these powers." Kimberly said sadly.

Sophie then sighed, not knowing what to say. The others just looked upset, 'cause like Kimberly, they'd all rather have Tommy back.

(Hidden chamber)

Alpha pressed a button on the computer nearby, and then turned to the new Ranger.

"Alpha, are you ready to proceed to the final level?" Zordon asked.

"Yes, Zordon." Alpha replied. "Ready when you are."

He then pressed more buttons on the computer.

(The workshop)

Bulk threw a mini handle on the table, annoyed, while Skull looked a bit tried, as they started at the dumpster.

"I don't get it, Skull." Bulk said. "We have tried every tool in the workshop and we can't get this thing open."

An idea then popped into Skull's head.

"Maybe not everything." he said, getting Bulk's attention. "Why don't we go pay Ernie a visit?"

Bulk had a confused look on his face.

"I've got an idea that just might work." Skull explained.

He then got up from the table, and then Bulk followed, still confused.

"I've got to get out of here!" Rita moaned loudly, pushing the lid open a little.

(Command Center)

Alpha was now back in the main room, and had gotten the computer back on-line.

"There. The master control panel is back on-line, and full power is restored." he said.

Zordon then appeared in his energy tube.

"Good work, Alpha." he said.

"Everything is ready, Zordon, and it's time to summon the Rangers." Alpha said. "This is so exciting."

He then pressed a few buttons on the computer.

(Billy's house)

The Rangers looked bored, when Jason's communicator beeped.

"I guess this is it." Kimberly sighed, as they gathered around each other.

"Zordon and Alpha must be finished." Zack deduced.

"Zordon…" Jason said, answering.

"Rangers, please teleport to the Command Center immediately." Zordon said.

"We're on our way." Jason said.

"Remember, Zordon and Alpha know what they're doing." Billy said.

"That's right." Trini said. "We shouldn't question their judgement, huh."

"We have to accept who the new guy is." Sophie said. "Whoever it is."

"Alright, let's get this over with." Kimberly said.

They then all teleported.

(Command Center)

Alpha walked over to a computer when the Rangers arrived. They then walked forward towards Zordon.

"Welcome, Power Rangers." Zordon said. "This promises to be a momentous occasion. You are about to meet the newest member of your team."

The Rangers all put smiles on their faces, especially Kimberly.

"As you are aware, the Green Ranger's power was completely decimated by his last few battles." Zordon explained. "Alpha and I felt it was time to create an even more powerful Ranger to combat Lord Zedd and his diabolical evil. To the end, a candidate was selected and a new Power Ranger was created."

Sophie and Billy sighed, as Zordon and Alpha didn't know they'd already told the others about the new Ranger.

"And now, my friends, I present to you the White Ranger." Zordon announced.

As he spoke, a light appeared behind the Rangers, which they then turned to, covering their eyes as they did. A figure then appeared in the light and then began to float to the floor. The light then got less bright so the Rangers removed their hands from their eyes, and then the White Ranger put his feet down on the floor. He then stood up straight, and then the light disappeared.

"Welcome, White Ranger." Zordon said. "The time has come to reveal your identity."

The Rangers all looked at him, while he reached for the clips on his helmet. He then unclipped them and began to take his helmet off. As half the helmet came off, Billy smiled, and then Kimberly fainted. He then removed the rest of his helmet, revealing himself to be none other than Tommy, the former Green Ranger.

"Guess who's back?" he asked his friends.

A huge grin fell on all their faces.

"I don't believe it." Billy said.

Sophie then ran up to Tommy and hugged him while Trini clapped. Zordon smiled as the others walked up to Tommy, after Sophie had let go.

"What's up, man." Zack said, shaking Tommy's hand. "Oh, you look good."

"Thanks, man." Tommy said.

Trini then hugged him.

"We didn't know who it was going to be." Zack admitted.

"Yeah, we thought it might've been someone else." Sophie admitted.

"We we're all hoping it would be you." Billy said, as Jason and Tommy shook hands. "Especially Kimberly."

They all laughed when Tommy spotted Kimberly on the floor.

"Speaking of Kimberly..." he said.

He moved past the others and walked to her, while the others grinned, and then put his helmet down.

"Hey, beautiful." he said, picking Kimberly up. "It's time to wake up."

Kimberly opened her eyes and saw Tommy.

"I don't believe it." she said, smiling. "I must be dreaming. Is it really you?"

Tommy chuckled. "In the flesh." he said.

The two of them then hugged while everyone else smiled at them.

"Man, awesome." Zack said. "Simply awesome."

Tommy and Kimberly then broke apart as the others walked towards them.

"It's fantastic." Kimberly said, as Tommy and Zack high-fived each other.

"AY-Yi-Yi-Yi-Yi. All this human emotion." Alpha cried, before sighing. "Oh..."

"So, Power Rangers, may I assume that you are pleased with the new leader of the Power Team?" Zordon asked.

"This is great." Jason grinned.

Tommy smiled, as Sophie put a hand on his shoulder.

"I'm sorry for being secretive. We had to guard against Lord Zedd's interference." Zordon explained.

"But, Zordon, how?" Kimberly asked. "I mean, I thought that Tommy lost his powers for good."

"Yeah, so did I." Sophie said.

"Not Tommy's. The Green Ranger's powers were gone for good." Alpha explained.

"That is correct. However, Tommy has proven himself to be worthy and true." Zordon explained, as the Rangers smiled. "His courage, strength and honor allowed us to choose him to be the new White Ranger. This time, his powers have been created by the light of goodness and can never be taken away by the forces of evil."

"The new Ranger will control the white Tigerzord-a Zord of strength and fierceness. He will carry an enchanted white saber known as Saba. Saba will assist the White Ranger in battle as well as control the new Zord." Alpha explained, as he pressed a few buttons on the computer.

Tommy lifted his hand up.

"Extend your hand, White Ranger and accept all that has been granted to you." Zordon said.

Sabe then showed up in Tommy's hand, and he looked at it before putting it down.

"Congratulations, Tommy. You are now the leader of the Power Rangers." Zordon announced.

"Oh, man, it's good to be back." Tommy said, looking at the others.

They all smiled at him.

"I guess there's a saying here." Sophie said.

"What's that, Soph?" Trini asked.

"I guess, once a Ranger, always a Ranger." Sophie said.

"You are right there, Sophie." Zordon said. "No matter what happens to a Ranger, once they become one, they remain one forever."

They all smiled.

(The workshop)

Bulk and Skull had now returned from the Youth Center, and had brought a big can opener with them.

"Prepare... to learn the secrets of the Power Rangers." Bulk said.

Skull laughed, and then they turned the can opener, trying to get the dumpster open. Bulk held the long bit while Skull twisted the small bit but the dumpster still wouldn't open.

(Command Center)

The alarm suddenly went off.

"Nimrod, the Scarlet Sentinel is attacking the Industrial Center." Zordon explained, as Alpha walked to the viewing globe.

"Zordon, our Zords were damaged in the last battle with the Nimrod monster." Jason explained. "We need time to repair them."

"Oh, no! AY-Yi-Yi-Yi-Yi-Yi-Yi!" Alpha cried, before turning to the Rangers. "Bulk and Skull are just about to open up Rita's dumpster!"

"What?" the Rangers all asked.

They all walked towards the viewing globe, and saw Bulk and Skull trying to open up the dumpster with the can opener.

"Missed." Bulk said, as the can opener wasn't near the top of the dumpster.

"We got to stop them." Zack said.

"If they open up that dumpster our cover will be blown." Trini said.

The others looked at her.

"Yeah." Kimberly agreed. "We have to stop the Nimrod and the goons too."

"Yeah." Billy said, as they turned back to Zordon. "And repair the Zords."

"Billy and Trini, you must teleport to the damaged Zords and begin repairs." Zordon instructed. "Alpha will provide you with all the information you need."

Billy and Trini looked at each other and nodded.

"Right." Billy said.

They both then teleported away.

"Jason, Sophie, Kimberly and Zack you must go to Bulk and Skull's location and secure Rita's dumpster. She cannot be allowed to escape." Zordon explained.

"We're on it." Jason said.

"Tommy, it is up to you to do battle with the Nimrod monster until the others are able to join you." Zordon explained. "Go now, and may the power protect you."

Jason and Tommy nodded to each other while the others smiled.

"It's morphin time!" Tommy said.

"Tigerzord!" Tommy shouted.

"Compsognathus!"

"Mastodon!"

"Pterodactyl!"

"Tyrannosaurus!"

They all then arrived outside an RV lot, expect Tommy., and came across a group of Putties.

"Great, Lord Zedd must be looking for Rita too." Kimberly said.

They then went off to fight them.

(Elsewhere)

Tommy meanwhile jumped onto a cliff and saw Nimrod towering above him.

"Activate the Tigerzord!" Saba said.

"Tigerzord, power up!" Tommy shouted.

The Tigerzord then arrived and growled.

"Yeah! It works!" Tommy cheered, jumping up. "Alright! Wahoo!"

The Tigerzord then jumped onto one cliff and then onto another, only to loose its footing and fall onto its back. It had landed near Tommy, forcing him to move out of the way and he landed on his back, and then rolled over till his was sitting up.

"Hey, I thought you knew what you were doing." he said to Saba.

"I do." Saba replied.

"Yeah. You sure could've fooled me." Tommy said.

The Tigerzord appeared to be lying on its belly.

(The RV lot)

Zack ran up a ramp, then blocked one Putty's punch and then knocked it behind him, then he ran past another one and hit it in the back, then he blocked another ones punch and then punched it in the chest, then kicked one that was behind him, then ducked when another tried to punch him before hitting it with his knee. Kimberly kicked one in the chest and knocked it over a barrel, while Zack back flipped down the ramp, then jumped and kicked one with both feet, which then shattered as he kicked the Z. Sophie ducked as one tried to punch her before grabbing its arm and pulling it down, then she kicked one on her left, and then punched one on her right, then she rolled forward and then hit one with her knee before punching it on the Z, making it shatter.

(The cliff)

Tommy now had a ball in one hand and Saba in the other.

"All right, there he is!" he said.

He then jumped onto the Tigerzord.

"All right, Saba, we'll start all over." Tommy said.

"White Tigerzord, Tiger mode, battle ready now!" he and Saba said together.

The Tigerzord the got up and then charged at Nimrod.

"Sorry, I never had a partner before." Tommy explained to Saba. "We'll get it together. Alright, let's do it!"

"You're toast, White Ranger!" Nimrod said, firing electric beams at him.

The beams missed Tommy and the Tigerzord, but they landed right near them.

"It's getting a little warm out here. I'm going inside." Tommy deiced, jumping into the Tigerzord.

He then walked to the middle of the cockpit, which had eight glowing balls behind it.

"Ah, much better." he said. "Let's send this lighting rod packing."

The Tigerzord then growled, and then kept glowing, sending smoke at Nimrod, which blinded her.

"Tigerzord, convert to warrior mode, now!" Tommy said, putting Saba down in a hole beside him.

The Tigerzord the jumped up, and then the legs moved back and turned into humanoid legs. The top half then bent forward, forming the arms and body, and then the head came out from the top.

"Power up!" Tommy said.

The Tigerzord's tail then turned into a sword. Nimrod then charged at it with her staff and tried to hit the Tigerzord with it, but it blocked it with its sword. They then turned to face each other again, and then got their weapons locked again, but then the Tigerzord got its sword loose and then hit Nimrod in the face, and then hit her with the sword in the face again and then again.

"Sabe, I want the Zord to follow my every move." Tommy said.

The Tigerzord then growled. Tommy then did a punch, and then the Tigerzord copied him, punching Nimrod in the face. He then did a kick, and then the Tigerzord copied him again, kicking Nimrod and knocking her down and away, but she soon got back up.

"Oh, that was most impressvie." Saba complemented.

"Thanks." Tommy said. "Let's wrap this guy up."

(The RV lot)

Jason was fighting a bunch of Putties around him.

"You want a fight?" Jason asked them. "You got it."

He then kicked one in the chest, then punched another one, then knocked one aside and then kicked another, then blocked ones attack and then knocked it into the fence behind him. Kimberly blocked ones punch and then punched it in the chest, sending it onto a barrel, where another one pushed it back up, while Sophie grabbed ones arm and elbowed it in the chest and then jumped forward to a few more and then split kicked two of them. A Putty on top of a scaffold threw a box at Jason, who jumped up and kicked it back at it, which hit it, and caused it to fall down the scaffold. One then tried to punch Kimberly, but she ducked, grabbed its arm and then threw it into some boxes behind her, while Sophie back flipped to avoid a few, and then stopped and kicked one to her left.

(The Megazord battle)

Tommy took out one of the balls behind him.

"It's time to fight fire with fire!" he said, putting it into a hole in front of him.

The Tigerzord's mouth then powered up.

"White Tiger thunderbolt, armed and ready!" Tommy said.

The Tigerzord then fried a fire thunderbolts out of its mouth, hitting Nimrod and then caused Tommy to laugh.

"Say good-bye, Nimrod." he said. "You're history."

"We'll see about that!" Nimrod said, getting her balance back. "Don't be so sure of yourself, White Ranger. If you're not careful, history will repeat itself!"

She held her arms out and electric beams came out of them, creating AC and DC, as she laughed.

They then all laughed.

"Whoa! Cool move but guess what, it's not good enough." Tommy said.

"We'll see." Nimrod said. "Go get him, boys."

AC and DC then charged at the Tigerzord, and then DC hit it with his sword, and then AC hit it with his, making Tommy moan.

"Blast him!" Nimrod ordered.

They then all fried at the Tigerzord and hit it, knocking it down and causing it to turn back to Tiger mode, while also knocking Tommy out of the cockpit, who landed in a forest, holding Saba.

"Oh, my, that didn't go very well." Saba said.

"Tell me something I didn't know." Tommy said, getting back up. "Contact Jason."

(Command Center)

Alpha and Zordon had seen the whole thing in the viewing globe.

"AY-Yi-Yi-Yi-Yi! Zordon, Tommy's in trouble!" Alpha said.

"I'll reconfigure the other Zords to join with the Tigerzord to become the Megatigerzord." Zordon said.

(The forest)

Saba couldn't get through to Jason.

"I'm having difficulty getting through to the Red Ranger." he said.

"Jason, where are you?" Tommy asked desperately. "I need you."

(The RV lot)

Jason soon got the message from Saba.

"Let's show her the power of thunder!" he shouted.

The Red Dragon Thunderzord then arrived, and then it started changing into warrior mode.

They've got a power and force that you've never seen before
Go, go, Power Rangers...

The warrior mode was then complete.

(The forest)

Tommy ran past a tree.

"I need White Tiger thunder power, now!" he shouted.

He then jumped onto the cliff again, and then a white ball came out of the sky and landed in his hand. The Tigerzord then tried to get back up, but it slipped.

Go, go, Power Rangers

The Tigerzord then manged to get back up and then growled. It then put its tail up and wagged its tail, and then charged at Nimrod.

Go, go, Power Rangers

The Red Dragon Thunderzord flew in the air, spinning its staff around.

You mighty morphin Power Rangers...

The Red Dragon Thunderzord then landed on the Tigerzords back. The Tigerzord then charged at Nimrod again, with the Red Dragon Thunderzord riding it like a house, holding his staff like a lance. It then spun the staff around as the Zords moved closer to Nimrod.

"Back for more?" Nimrod asked.

The Zords kept charging at her, AC and DC, like a knight in a jousting contest. The Zords then knocked DC aside with the staff, followed by AC, and then they hit Nimrod with the staff as the jumped past her. AC and DC then charged at them, while Nimrod fired at them, but she missed the Zords.

Tommy was now in a quarry near the cliff.

"It's time to turn up the heat a little." he said. "Disengage!"

The Red Dragon Thunderzord then jumped off the Tigerzord. Tommy then jumped onto the Tigerzord and then got straight into the cockpit.

"Megatigerzord transformation now!" he said, putting Saba in its spot.

The Tigerzord then changed into its warrior mode.

Go, go, Power Rangers

The other Thunderzords then arrived, as Billy and Trini had repaired them all by now.

Go, go, Power Rangers

They then went around the Tigerzord, and then started to combine with it. The Lion Thunderzord attached itself to the chest and right arm, and the shoulders.

Go, go, Power Rangers

The Griffin and Unicorn Thunderzords became the legs, the Garuda Thunderzord attached itself to the back, and then Firebird Thunderzord went on the left arm.

You mighty morphin Power Rangers...

Some amour went over the head, and then the Megatigerzord was complete.

"Oh!" Nimrod said, as she, AC and DC backed up.

The Megatigerzord then matched towards them.

"Get him!" Nimrod ordered.

They all then fired electric blasts at it, but it kept on marching, and then AC and DC hid behind Nimrod.

"Don't hide behind me! Get him, you fools!" she shouted.

The Megatigerzord kept on walking. AC and DC then jumped over Nimrod.

"Hey!" she shouted, as they jumped on her head.

They then went closer to the Megatigerzord, which then punched them and sent them back towards Nimrod, which knocked them all down. The Megatigerzords eyes glowed as they got back up.

"Can't you do anything right?" Nimrod asked her assistants.

Go, go, Power Rangers

The Megatigerzord then fired the Firebird Thunderzord at them, and then the Tigerzord fired a beam out of its mouth at it. The Firebird Thunderzord then spun like a boomerang and hit Nimrod, AC and DC.

Go, go, Power Rangers

Nimrod then dropped her staff as they lost their balance.

Go, go, Power Rangers

AC and DC then disappeared.

You mighty morphin Power Rangers...

Nimrod then fell to the ground and was destroyed. The Firebird Thunderzord then swung back towards the Megatigerzord and took its place back on the left arm. The Red Dragon Thunderzord then walked over to the Megatigerzord, and they then shook hands and nodded to each other.

(The workshop)

Bulk and Skull were still trying to get the dumpster open with the can opener, but they eventually gave up, too tried to carry on. Bulk threw the can opener to the fall, and they then turned around and fell down exhausted. They then took a few breaths each, before Bulk turned to Skull.

"Face it, Skull we are never gonna get this tuna can opened." he said, as the lid lifted up.

"Oh...look at this mess." Skull said, before realizing something. "My father's going to kill me."

Rita had crept out of the dumpster, and then walked in front of it, chuckling as she did.

"Ah! I'm free!" she said. "I'm free!"

Bulk and Skull then turned around, and opened their eyes wide in shock.

"What are you looking at, you blithering pickleheads?" Rita asked them.

Bulk and Skull muttered but they couldn't get the words out.

"Ah! Great!" Rita said. "Just what I need- a human Squatt and Baboo."

Bulk and Skull then turned around and fainted.

"Yoo-hoo, Rita!" called Kimberly's voice.

Rita looked up and saw the Power Rangers hovering over her.

"Ah! Not you again!" she moaned.

"Afraid so, Rita." Tommy said.

"We're, like, your worst nightmare." Kimberly added.

"You'll never get rid of us." Zack said, picking Rita up. "Nighty-night, Rita."

"Put me down, you Power Geek!" Rita shouted, as Tommy opened the dumpster.

Zack then put her into it.

"No!" Rita shouted. "You listen to me! Do you..!"

Tommy put the lid back on before she could finish.

"Yeah. Good job, guys." he said.

"Right. I just can't believe Bulk and Skull slept through the whole thing." Kimberly admitted.

"I know what you mean, Kim." Sophie said.

(A while later)

The boys had taken the dumpster away, while the girls de-morphed and stayed in the workshop. Trini then hit Bulk's cheek softly while Kimberly hit Skull's the same way, trying to wake them up.

"Mommy, give me two more minutes." Bulk said sleepy. "I'll wake up, I promise."

Trini then hit Bulk's cheek again and they then both woke up.

"Come on, Bulky, wake up." Kimberly said.

"You too, Skully boy." Sophie joked.

They both looked and saw the three girls standing over them.

"Are you guys okay?" Kimberly asked. "We heard you screaming."

"What happened?" Skull asked, confused.

"Why don't you tell us what happened?" Trini asked them.

"Yeah. Why were you both screaming, guys?" Sophie asked.

"Oh...uh, don't... look...behind us." Bulk stuttered, pointing behind him.

"There's a little witch." Skull added, doing the same.

"What are you guys talking about?" Kimberly asked.

"I don't see anyone behind you guys." Sophie said.

Bulk and Skull turned around and saw no one, leaving them confused, as they turned to the girls, then back to the table.

"It's gone!" Bulk said.

"Where'd that little creature get too?" Skull wondered.

"What little creature?" Kimberly asked, as they turned back to them.

Bulk and Skull didn't know what to say for a while.

"No little creature." Skull suddenly said.

"Everything's fine." Bulk added.

"Yeah. Just...fine." Skull said.

They both then smiled.

"Yeah." Kimberly said.

Bulk and Skull then grinned and smiled.

(A empty field)

The boys had de-morphed themselves and taken Rita's dumpster to the middle of an empty field.

"Time to send Rita back into space where she can't cause us anymore trouble." Tommy said.

They then held the dumpster above them.

"Alright, Zordon, we're ready." Billy said into his communicator.

(Command Center)

Alpha was standing by the computer.

"Alpha, activate the energy beam." Zordon told him.

Alpha pressed a button on the computer.

(The field)

The energy beam then zapped Rita's dumpster back into space.

"Well, at least she's out of our hair again." Tommy said.

They all laughed.

"At least for now." Billy said.

(Youth Center)

The next day, they were all at the Youth Center sitting at a table. Ernie was putting the finishing touches on a cake which said: Welcome back Tommy.

"Oh, man, you guys are the best." Tommy said.

"Yeah, well, I think that your surprise was more of a surprise than our surprise." Jason said.

They all then laughed.

"Hear, hear." Trini said, raising her cup.

The others followed.

"Welcome back, Tommy." Billy said.

"Welcome back." Trini said, as they clicked their cups together.

Richie, Dave and Curtis then walked over to them, Richie carrying a trophy while Dave carried a drawing.

"Hey, guys." Richie said, getting their attention.

"Hey." Kimberly said, before eating cracker.

"Welcome back, Tommy." Dave said.

"Thanks, Dave." Tommy said, before noticing the drawing. "What's that?"

"A welcome home present." Dave explained.

"Dave's a pretty good drawer, Tommy." Sophie explained.

Dave then showed Tommy the drawing, and it showed him and his six friends all around each other. The boys were at the bottom on their knees, while the girls were behind them standing up.

"Thanks, Dave." Tommy said, shaking his hand. "This is pretty good."

"Thanks." Dave said.

"Um, did you win that trophy?" Trini asked, noticing the trophy in Richie's hand.

"Yeah. I won it in a karate tournament this afternoon." Richie explained.

"Wow, congratulations, man." Tommy said.

"Yeah, Richie, that's really great." Kimberly said.

"Yeah. Way to go." Billy said.

"He was pretty good." Dave said. "Me and Curtis saw him. The best in the tournament."

"Yeah, he was." Curtis said.

Ernie then finished the cake and picked it up.

"Hey, how about demonstrating some of those moves?" Tommy asked.

"Yeah, come on, let's go." Zack said.

"Yeah, show us something really cool." Kimberly said, as Richie put the trophy on the table.

Richie then back away as Ernie walked towards them, then spun around and did a kick, sending the cake out of Ernie's hands.

"Hey!" Ernie said.

Bulk and Skull then came in, and looked just as the cake landed on their faces, covering their eyes. Everyone then laughed at them, while Richie shrugged his shoulders at Ernie, who smiled. Bulk then shook most of the cake off him while Skull ate some of his, and then turned and left the room.

"Oh, man, it's good to see some things never change." Tommy said.

They all then laughed while Jason took a sip of his drink.
