I don't own anything. Just the part of the story-idea or better to say, anything unrecognizable is mine ;)
A big thank to those reviewing my story!
Ernie's juice bar:
The rangers were sitting at one of the round tables, talking while they waited for Kim.
"So, how long do you think Kim will stay?" Rocky asked Tommy.
"Well, I think a few days or longer. She takes a motel in town." Tommy answered, knowing there would be other questions to come.
"So, what else have you been talking about?" Kat asked him.
"Actually, the time had been short as I missed the alarm, but…" Tommy wanted to begin, however Rocky interrupted him before he could finish.
"You overslept again?" Rocky asked amused.
Tommy rolled his eyes, which didn't go by unnoticed by his friends.
"What? It's no secret, is it?" Rocky stated and the others agreed.
"Yes, I know. I have overslept five times so far, and before you remind me, it is the fifth time this month though it is only the tenth… again." Tommy sighed.
"Again? What do you mean?" Tanya wondered. How had he known what she wanted to say?
"Well, if Rocky hadn't interrupted I would have been able to complete my sentence by telling you that I already lived through this day a few times." Tommy explained and the others were suddenly silent.
"Why is everyone so quiet? No teasing about oversleeping today?"
A voice from behind asked in the silence and the rangers, except Tommy, were caught by surprise. They had been focusing on Tommy's words… wondering… and hadn't noticed anything else around them.
Kim took the remaining seat while the others just stared at her.
"Am I the only one, who is completely lost?" Adam asked his friends.
"I began explaining to them about the repetition of this day." Tommy told Kim and she nodded smirking, "and they didn't believe you, did they?"
"What about Zordon and Alpha, did they?" Tommy questioned her back and Kim shook her head.
"They only thought some kind of déjà-vu. But you know, we will be prepared this time." Kim explained and turned her attention to the others, who still sat there with open mouths, wondering what was going on.
"Ok, we don't have much time Kim. We should hurry in explaining." Tommy proposed and Kim nodded.
"All the questions you have to me about my career and everything else has to wait. It won't take long and Zordon will call." Kim began telling her friends, who had wanted to know these things a few moments before. Now they were wondering how she had figured it out.
"Yes, this time you will be going to fight them alone." Tommy took over and didn't stop though the others still weren't able to say a word. "You'll teleport to the park and fight the monster. Kim and I will be teleporting near the battlefield, but out of view. Maybe we will find the answer to the things that are happening again and again. When you need us, which will be the case, we'll come to your help."
"Ok, but why do you think Zordon will…" Kat began, but stopped talking as her communicator began to beep as well as the ones from the others.
"Wow!" Rocky told them, "this is weird!"
Tommy and Kim didn't waste time and went to an empty corner and answered Zordon's call as the others were beside them.
"Rangers there is an attack in the park. Just like Kim told us there would be. Though I still don't know how she could know, you have no choice but to go there. Maybe defeating the monster will hold the answers."
"We know. That was our guess. The others will teleport to the park and Kim and I are teleporting to a location near them." Tommy answered and seconds later coloured streams could be seen flying to the park.

Command Centre:
This time Billy was the only one, seeing how the rangers fought.
From the moment they began fighting, the monster seemed to have the upper hand.
Each attack was blocked or avoided by the creation of King Mondo and Billy began to think, that Kim had told the truth. Still he couldn't believe that the machine empire was so powerful, that they could turn the time back. But on the other hand, a few years before he wouldn't even have guessed that such things like aliens, Power Rangers or even Zordon and Alpha existed!
So why not?
He went over to the panels and began checking the surrounding of the rangers. If Tommy and Kim's story was completely true, then there had to be something… somewhere…
…
In the Park with the Rangers:
They had tried all they could, but kept being thrown away and pushed to the ground.
"Not again!" Rocky exclaimed as he and Adam were thrown back once again. Their double attack hadn't worked.
Kat tried her best at attacking the monster from behind, but it was like the monster could foresee it and ducked while spinning around and kicking her in return. She would have landed hard on the ground, if Jason hadn't been standing in her flying line and was now buried under her.
"Sorry," Kat mumbled and hopped she hadn't hit Jason too hard.
"Doesn't matter," he replied, "are you ok?"
"I am, but how can we ever defeat that thing?" Kat answered and in her voice could be heard, how hopeless she felt.
"Damn!" Tanya shouted, as she was thrown back, too.
Quickly she made her choice, while lying on the floor. She raised her wrist and shouted into her communicator: "Tommy, Kim, we need you!"
….
With Tommy and Kim:
They had been searching for something strange, while trying not to raise attention. "Tommy, we still haven't found anything and the others won't hold up much longer. This time they're even one ranger more down."
"I know. You should go, when they call." Tommy answered knowing very well, that she was right. Just then, their communicator beeped and it wasn't one of the rangers calling, but Billy:
"Tommy, Kim, I think I might have found something interesting. I scanned the park and though I found no energy signatures of the machine empire I found something else. One part of the Park showed an interesting reading on the scanners. It was like it didn't exist and the scanner "jumped" over it. My guess would be an energy shield."
"That could be it, Tommy!" Kim told the red ranger, "we haven't found anything till now, because it is shielded and we can't see it!"
"You're probably right! But when we can't see it, maybe we can't enter it, too." Tommy thought out loud.
Just then a familiar voice could be heard over their communicators: "Tommy, Kim, we need you!"
"Ok, there isn't much time left." Tommy told Kim and made his choice. "You go in and help while I try to find something. Billy, can you give me the coordinates near that piece, please?"
"Sure," Kim answered Tommy, "this time we have a plan."
"Yes, and this time we will be the ones to hold the surprises!" Tommy added before he made his way to the coordinates.
"Tanja, I'm coming!" Kim now told her new friend over the communicator and called her glider. "This time we play it my way," she smirked and flew off to aid her friends.
Please review! :)
