Here it is at long last! This chapter is the final confrontation that you have all been waiting for. As such, you should know that this chapter will contain very harsh language and is very rough. By now you should all be used to that.

However out of respect for our readers, I will post the warning.

WARNING: THIS CHAPTER CONTAINS HARSH VIOLENCE AND USE OF DEROGATORY TERMS. PROCEED WITH CAUTION!

Now, read on and please leave us reviews!


Kim watched all the action rapt attention. On either side of her sat Caroline and Annalise. Trini and Tanya, along with the two agents in plain clothes were sitting in a private box which Pierre had rented for them to use. The twins had never been safer.

That gave Kimberly a small measure of peace, but her attention, at the moment, was focused on her husband and big brother. She scanned over the crowd and her eyes soon found her target.

Demetrius. The scum bag.

Instantly she sat up straighter. Caroline noticed. "Is he here sweetie?"

"Yeah, his team are the black dragons. Right there." Kim pointed to the team in the black uniforms.

Analise squeezed her hand. "Are you okay Kim?"

Kim only nodded. "Yeah, he's going down tonight. As long as he's free, he's a threat to my babies. I'll be able to breathe easier the moment the Feds have him. I'm only anxious to be done with this whole mess."

And I want to hold my babies.

"Is there really no other way to do this?" Caroline whispered.

Kim shook her head. "No, for this to work, I'm gonna have to lure him away. He's gonna have to see and recognize me."

"Are you sure you can beat him?" She asked becoming more afraid for her daughter by the minute.

"Absolutely. I'm more then a match for him. Mom, I need you to take a deep breath. No sense you getting yourself worked up."

"I'm fine sweetheart. Put yourself in my place, how would you feel if Terra was about to put herself in the path of a rapist."

Kim shook her head. "She'll never have to. Ever. That's the reason I'm doing this."

Caroline frowned but sat back trying to relax.

Kim looked at her mom and then took her hand. "Mom, promise me you won't try to protect me. I know exactly what I'm about to do. I was taught to fight by the best. Even if it even looks like he's winning, don't try to intervene."

"Kim." Caroline said giving her a pleading look.

"Promise me, Mom. I know exactly what I'm doing."

Her mom took a deep breathe. "Fine. I won't intervene. I promise."

Kim sighed. "It'll be all over soon."


On and on the tournament went, an hour later, only a handful of fighters were left, Tommy and Jason were among them.

But so were two men from Demetrius's team. Jared and Anthony. They were both pretty menacing on their own...and they'd literally torn through the rest of the teams. No one stood a chance against them. Except of course the two champions from Angel Grove.

They were on an intermission as the woman's final was going on. Aisha had unfortunately been taken out of the tournament...on a stretcher. Awesome fighter though she was, Her opponent had been relentless and had kicked out really hard, Rocky had rushed to her side as fast as he could while the appointed physical therapist looked at her. She wouldn't need an ambulance, but she was sporting a big bruise on her right side just below the rib-cage and she would be tender for a while. Tanya was with her now, readying for the final confrontation.

Rocky walked up his friends. Jason turned to him. Hey Rocky, Aisha okay?"

He nodded. "Yeah, 'Ish is fine, the doc's given her a prescription for some morphine pills. She's taken some now, just enough to take the edge off the pain. But she'll be out of commission for a while."

Tommy nodded. "Not the first time that's happened, that's for sure."

All the guys nodded. "I wouldn't be surprised if my blood wasn't 90% Ibuprofen by now." Jason said as the final bell rang.

The two girls on the mat were very evenly matched. The fighting was beyond fierce, it was an all out battle for dominance. Finally, the taller girl went down, and the same girl that took Aisha down was the last one standing.

And that was Serena Collins from Chicago IL. She's powered her way through all her bouts and is now the Woman's division champion. She'll be going home with $50,000 dollars in cash and the beautiful golden trophie for first place. After the break, we'll come back for the men's semi finals."

When the microphone cut off, Tommy wiped his brow and took a drink of his water. He looked up in the VIP section and saw his wife smiling back at him. Then she looked over at the other team. Demetrius was staring at her with a startled expression.

Jason frowned and Tommy almost growled, Adam put a hand on his shoulder. "Take it easy Tommy, it'll be over soon."

At his friends calming voice, he took a deep breath and looked away.

"I need you to focus, Tommy" Jason said. "We never did anything half-way. And I'll be damned if we start now. I know you want to be up there with her, but I sure as hell won't let you throw this fight. The Dojo's reputation is at stake."

As he said this, he saw David walk into the VIP area and greet Kimberly. He sat down in the row behind her and then looked him straight in the eye. Tommy took another deep breath. "Okay, lets do it."

Jason nodded in approval as the announcer came back on.

"And were back at the Staples arena. We're just about to start the semi finals of the men's competition. We've got the top notch team from Angel Grove vs. The Black Dungeon Dojo from Miami florida. They're looking fierce and ready to begin the final rounds."

"It's been a night of heated matches and its about to get even hotter. Before we begin, it's time to introduce the final four competitors."

First we have the team from Angel Grove California. For this semi final bout, we have Jason Scott. This fighter with a heart of gold stands tall at just under 6 feet and weighs in at just under 180 pounds of pure muscle. He's been undefeated this entire night and has become a crowd favorite. Before taking up at the Dojo, he spent a year in Switzerland as at peace conference with two fellow students from his high school.

And right beside him is best friend Thomas Oliver. The second competitor representing Angel Grove. He's a brand new father of twins, which made their debut into this world barely two weeks ago. His wife is here to cheer him on tonight."

The world seemed to slow down for Tommy as he looked up at his wife. She blew a kiss at him and mouthed 'I love you'. He smiled up at mouthed back to her. He felt Jason stiffen next to him and turned his head to see Demetrius looking furious. He looked back at the VIP box and met David's gaze. his brother waved to him and then flashed a thumbs up.

Recognizing the subtle hint he nodded slowly and turned back around as the Announcer introduced the other team.

Not that he was really paying attention. He just wanted to get the fight over with so he could be at his wife's side.

"And back down in the arena its first up Thomas Oliver VS Jared Keiser. They're meeting in the middle...bowing...and it's on."

Tommy was devoted to the match this time around. With every flip, kick, and sweep, he proved again and again how he'd gotten so far in the competition. His opponent couldn't get near to him, but not for lack of trying. Tommy was on fire and before Jared knew it, he was flying out of the circle on his back.

Tommy backed out of the circle as the referee checked the other guy over. When everything checked out, they entered the circle for the second time. Jared was giving him a look full of hatred. Tommy chuckled evilly.

"Fight!" The ref called out.

Tommy went into a defensive stance and as he began to move in for the attack, Jared aimed a kick for his midsection, and Tommy blocked before he dropped to the ground...which was just what his opponent was waiting for and he launched another kick that landed hard on the side of Tommy's head near the corner of his eye. Tommy covered his eye and groaned. Instantly the ref was at his side.

Thomas, are you okay, can you stand up."

Tommy opened his eyes and suddenly felt really dizzy. He dropped to the mat. "Give me a minute. I'm really dizzy."

The next voice in his ear was Adam's. It's okay Tommy, I'm right here. Can you go another round?

"I...I got to get to Kimberly...is she still there?"

Adam looked up at the box. "Crap, no she's not." He looked across the matt..."And Demetrius...he's gone too."

"Dammit. Adam, he's going after Kimberly. Fuck this match, I won't let her face him alone. Help me get up."

Adam didn't say another word as he helped Tommy to his feet. He grimaced when his best friend swayed on his feet.

Rocky looked at the ref. "He won't be continuing, you better call it."

Jason looked at Adam. "Stick to the plan."

"Got it. Come on buddy." Lets get back to the locker room.

Tommy only nodded as he leaned on his friends shoulder. As he did he heard the ref announce.

"Jared is the winner of this bout by default. Thomas Oliver will not be continuing this match. To win this competition, Jason Scott will have to win his match against Anthony Hearthstone and then take out Jared Keiser. Best of luck to you Jason."

Kimberly walked down the stairs towards the locker room. She'd known that the moment to make her move had arrived when Tommy went down. Caroline was at her side and Anna trailed just behind her. David followed behind them, waiting for the confrontation.

She had just passed the Girls locker room when Caroline was roughly pushed out the way. She landed with cry on the hard floor. Kimberly looked down ather mom and then gasped when she was roughly pushed against the wall. She looked up into the eyes of Demetrius.

"What the fuck are you doing alive. You were supposed to die!"

Kimberly chuckled. "I'm not that easy to kill. Lucky for me, my friends came to my rescue."

Demetrius slapped her hard. "Shut the fuck up, Bitch. I'm in control here. Who did you go crying to? If you breathed even one word to the police. I'll slit your throat right now."

Kimberly smiled coldly up to him. "I didn't have to...you've just told on yourself."

Demetrius lifted a hand to slap her again, but Kimberly was faster and she kneed him in the groin and then pushed him roughly. He swore loudly and got up, groaning in pain and charged at her again. But Kim was ready for him and moved to the side. She winced when he ran into the wall. She grabbed him by the back of his shirt and pulled him back. Adrenaline was coursing through her body and she used all her strength to throw him to the ground. He landed on his stomach and she was a blur as she jumped on his back and wrapped an arm around his neck and then flexed all the muscles in her arm, effectively putting him in a choke hold.

"You're wrong. I'm in control now. You raped a pregnant woman that day, you lowly bastard. You may have thought you killed me, but I bounced back, healed up, and now I've effectively kicked your ass."

She pulled her arm back, grabbed him by his hair was just about to slam his face in to the floor when she felt a hand on her shoulder. She growled up into the face of Zack.

"Easy Kim, as much as I enjoyed seeing you kick ass, You need to release him and let the Feds take over."

Kimberly growled again, leaned into Demetrius' ear, and whispered coldly. "You deserve to get much worse then this, and maybe you will. I've heard that rapists die in jail."

She allowed her friend to help her to her feet and Zack kicked Demetrius towards Agent Cochran. They all watched as he was cuffed and hauled to his feet. Then Detective Embers grabbed Demetrius by the collar and looked over her head at Tommy who was still leaning on Adam for support.

"We're holding up our end of the bargain. If you're getting closure now's the time."

Tommy closed his eyes again and with all of his concentration walked unsteadily towards cuffed man.

"No words are needed. My wife just gave you a hell of a beat down. I'm thrilled that I got to watch. I'm pretty angry with you right now...no, I'm furious with you. You raped the mother of my children, left her to bleed to death in that disgusting basement under your 'business'. And then had the gall to attack her here, where the eyes of the world are watching. You really must be dumber then you look."

Demetruis growled at Tommy.

"You're right. I did rape her...and I loved every minute of it." He chuckled evily and then looked at Kimberly.

"Tell me, Mrs. Oliver, do you still see my face when your husband fucks you? Does he take you rough? How did he react when you screamed my name instead of his?"

Tommy growled and Kim held up a hand and kissed his cheek. "I've got this, Handsome. This is the moment I've been preparing for." She looked over at her mother who was being held up by David.

Then she looked back at Demetrius and laughed coldly.

"You're kidding right?"

Demetrius growled and tried to lunge at her. But Agent Cochran held him tight, he wasn't going anywhere.

She walked up to him, still keeping her distance.

"You give yourself way to much credit. Tommy was my first and the father of my children. After that whole weekend Tommy and I spent making love, no man...least of all you could measure up. Now, whenever he...as you say, fucks me, I come hard screaming his name. Every time. He's so very amazing at it. Well you...nope, can't say I ever gave you a second thought. He's three times the man you are. My husband was very good that night...and he's erased every memory of you."

Tommy chuckled at her from behind and she gave him a grin as he took a deep breath and managed to make his way over to her side. He held onto her for support.

Damn, baby. Have I ever told you how sexy you are like that? Saying that he wrapped an arm around her abdomen and pressed her into him. Then he looked at Demetrius who was giving him a death glare.

That's right you filthy bastard. She's mine. You really must be an idiot to think she'd ever remember you. With me around, she'll have everything she'll ever need want or desire. The only thing you ever accomplished with your lame ass attack was to give her a reason to get stronger. She's even better then she was before she left for Florida."

Kimberly lifted her chin to kiss her husband and then she turned back to Demetrius. "After this moment, I won't ever think of you again. However, there is one more thing I need to take care of."

"Yeah, and what's that, dirty whore?"

Kimberly smirked at Tommy who let her go and watched in pride as she got in her attacker's face. "You. Hit. My. Mother...And that... was a very bad decision." Saying this she slapped him hard across the face putting all her strength behind it.

Demetrius hissed in pain and tried to lunge for her, but Agent Cochran pulled his arms tighter behind his back.

"I think that is enough violence for today." He looked at Kimberly and Tommy. "Is this enough closure for you two?"

Kimberly sneered at Demetrius. "Yeah, he's not worth another moment of my time." Saying this she turned on her heel and walked back to her husband's side. "What about you Handsome?"

Tommy chuckled darkly. "Yep, I'm good...I give him no more then a month before he's somebody else's dirty whore."

David chuckled. "Whatever you do, if you're not alone in the shower, don't bend over!"

Adam cracked up at that and shook his head. "Maybe you should invest in that soap-on-a-rope."

"Oookay. That should do it." Then he turned to Demetrius and began to read him his rights as he and Detective Ember led him away.

When they were gone, Tommy sighed heavily and sank to the floor. Adam knelt down next to him.

"Still dizzy?"

Tommy nodded. "A little. Give me another minute and then I'll try and make it to the locker room."

Zack knelt on the other side of Tommy. "I'm seriously doubting that. You could barely see straight when you got here. Come on Brother, we'll get you to the locker room."

Tommy took a deep breath and opened his eyes to see that Billy and Kat had joined the little gathering. He didn't even bother to argue with him as both Adam and David helped him walk to the Locker rooms where the doctor was waiting for them.

Jason stood outside the circle as Anthony Hearthstone limped off with the help of the ref.

Served him right for taking such a cheap shot.

Jared Kaiser is out of the fight. Now, comes the final bout...wait, what's this?" The annoucer paused as he looked up towards the screen to see Demetrius in cuffs being led away by the authorities. He grinned at the sight and then looked back at his opponents.

Just then Rocky came up behind him. "It's over. You've got one more opponent and then we'll call it a night."

Jason nodded. "How's the fearless leader?"

"Being checked over. It looks like a mild concussion. He needs help walking."

"And Kim?"

"Adam says she was spectacular...there are no words for the awesomeness she displayed. Demetrius sang like a canary and confessed to everything. He's not going anywhere."

Jason chuckled. "Good. Now, I wonder how this will effect the competition.

They both looked at Jared to see him giving him a death glare before he focused on the ref as he watched the referee confer with the officials.

He looked back at Jason and they locked gazes. But that only lasted a moment before the referee came back.

"The rules state that all teams must have a sensai present. I'm sorry Mr. Keiser, but he's just been arrested by the feds. This means Angel Grove whens by default. Jason frowned. "Damn, I hate winning by default."

He looks ready to attack you." Rocky said softly from behind him.

Jason grinned. "Let him. It'll make me feel better."

The ref walked up to him. "Congratulations son, You win."

Jason bowed to him in respect as the ref walked took Jason's wrist and lifted it above his head. Then the announcer came on. "Jason Scott, of Angel Grove, is this years champion! Congratulations! In addition to the trophy and the honors that go with it, he'll be leaving here 50,000 dollars richer!"

Jason grinned, hoping that Trini was watching as the Referee walked over to him with the first place trophy...and that was when Jared made his move. He ran at the ref, who saw it coming and moved out of the way as Jason leapt into action.

Jared kicked out at his head like he had done Tommy, but Jason was ready for it. He grabbed Jareds foot and yanked him down. He was no longer in the competition so he could defend himself without fear of reprisal.

Jared landed on the floor in a heap. But he was on his feet instantly and this time he tried to come at Jason with a sweep, but Jason jumped over his leg and landed a good punch to his midsection and Jared hissed as he got the breath knocked out of him.

Jason was on him instantly planting a knee on his chest. "It's over, but I thank you for attacking me, it's so more satisfying...now I really have won." He said the last part with a grin.

Jared glowered at him. But didn't say anything more as Security rushed the mat. The whole world watched as the subdued loser was lead away.

"Well, that was something I thought only happened in Wrestling." Came the announcer's voice as he stepped onto the mat. Jason gave the camera a smile and a wave. "That was a very entertaining fight right there. Congrats on being the new Martial Arts Champion. How does it feel to win?"

"It feels Amazing. I had hoped I'd have my brother with me when I won so we could share the spotlight, but this will do."

"Now that you've won, what will you do now?"

Jason grinned. "Go see my girlfriend and check in on my family. We've got a lot of celebrating to do."

The announcer shook his hand. "Sounds like fun to me. Once again congratulations!"

"Thank you." Jason answered as the ref handed him the trophy. He bowed once more and then turned to Rocky, Adam, and Sensai Jackson. "Here ya go, this should make a great display piece on the shelf."

His sensai grinned. "Yes it will. But you've done much more then win tonight. You represented our dojo with dignity and honor and both you and Tommy have showed me how much you have both grown I step down soon as Sensai, and you two will make perfect replacements."

Jason grinned. "Are you serious?" He looked at Rocky and Adam, who were giving him looks of encouragement. "But what about Rocky and Adam? They're just as good as us."

Jackson nodded. "That's very true, you four are a tight-knit group. You've just become a champion, I have a feeling that our dojo is about to become even more popular. We'll need more teachers. I'm prepared to offer you all teaching positions...the moment you graduate High school."

Jason looked at Rocky and Adam. "What do you guys think?"

Adam grinned. "I've already said yes, you should do it."

"Rocky?"

"Aisha and I have our whole lives ahead of us. If we're going to get married soon, I'll need a steady job. I'm in too."

"Tommy has a whole family of his own now. He'll need this job too. I'm willing to bet that he won't hesitate to say 'yes.'"

"Then it's settled. As of next September you are all the newest Sensai of the Dojo. Now, lets go check on Tommy and Aisha. I know you're all dying to see them."

And with that, they left the mat behind them, for one more year.


When Jason entered the private viewing box, he was greeted with an almost normal sight. It took a moment for it to sink in that the fight was over. This was what would greet him from now on, that is, when Mondo and his machine empire were gone.

Trini rushed up to him with a big smile and wrapped her arms around him, pressing a kiss to his mouth. He grinned and returned the kiss before he lifted her up of her feet. She wrapped her legs around him.

"This is something I could get used to, Miss Kwan."

She grinned at him. "Consider it a Champion's welcome."

Jason grinned and kissed her again before he settled her back on his feet and looked around. Kim was sitting on the couch with Tommy's head in her lap, she held a wet cloth over his eyes. He knelt down next to Tommy.

"You okay bro?"

Tommy nodded and held out his hand, which Jason took. "I'll be okay in a day or so. My eyes and head hurt. The doc said I only had a mild concussion. But thanks for kicking Keiser's butt for me. I wish I could have seen it, tell me you got that on tape."

"We will. The dude from ESPN said we'd be getting a copy of the competition broadcast." Zack said as he walked towards them. We'll have a viewing party when we get back."

"Sounds good to me. Or it will as soon as I get better. Have you gotten any word about Shen and Minoko?"

Zack nodded as he came up to them. "Yeah, they're both at the hotel. They're leaving in the morning to go back to Florida, but they wanted to thank us for ridding them of the threat. They want to treat us to dinner back at the hotel."

Tell them thank you Zack, but I really don't have much of an appetite, I just need my family with me tonight, but go ahead and enjoy the dinner."

"Hey man, you sure?"

Tommy lifted up the towel and squinted at Zack. "Please, I want you and the others to go on ahead." He looked at Jason. "You deserve it the most Jase, you were there for me that day. If it weren't for you, I dont know how I would have handled all that, if you weren't there with me. You've been the clearheaded one all this time."

Jason flashed him a grin. "That's what Big brothers do. You just go enjoy your family, who knows how long M..." he paused looking at Sensai Jackson who was still in the room. "Who knows how long we'll have before the drama starts again.

Their Sensai walked up to them again. "Don't bother hiding anything from me. I know you guys are rangers." Jason gaped at him.

He rolled his eyes. "It's not hard to figure out when the rangers have the exact same moves as my top students? I noticed that the Gold Ranger works the same way with the Red ranger as you too did tonight. I'm may be an older man, but my eyes are still sharp as ever. I'm more then willing to work around the battle with you guys. And your secret is safe with me, you can be sure of that. I can sleep much better knowing that you guys will be there to defend the city."

"In the meantime, I'm taking Aisha back to the hotel after we stop by a pharmacy to get her meds." Rocky said from his spot where Aisha was curled up in his lap. "I'm gonna take care of my girl tonight."

Jason stood up from his spot. "Well then, I'm starving! Let's go feast!"

Trini grinned at her boyfriend. "Spoken like a true red ranger."
