Chapter 37

"Well, well look at what my husband brought me, a little Pink Ranger." Rita said to Kim through the bars. They had her in the cell that had once held Kat. She thought that it was somewhat ironic.

"Rito, you are not to let her go like you did that kiddy Kat." Zedd said as he and Rito walked to where Rita and Kim were.

"I won't. She won't trick me like Kat did." He said as Rita and Zedd walked out.

Kim looked around. She was ready to get out of there and back into Tommy's arms. She knew that Zedd was planning something but she didn't know what. This place was something out of her nightmares. She shrived at that thought and hoped that Tommy would be here soon. She didn't think that she could take anymore.

"It's time to attack." Mesogogg said as Zeltrax lead the army of tyrannodrones to the park. They were to attack the rangers and destroy them. He was ready to finish Elsa's work.

"Tommy!" Trini yelled from the basement.

Tommy jumped up and ran downstairs with everyone following closely on his heels. He hoped that they had found Kim and that he could go and get her. He really needed her.

"Have you found her?" He asked as soon as his feet touched the floor of his basement. He walked over to Trini who was standing by the computers.

"No, but you and the Dinos need to get to the park. Mesogogg has sent someone new and they are attacking the park." She said as she watched his face fall. She knew that he wanted to get to Kim but he was a ranger first and foremost. The people of Reefside needed him to be a Power Ranger.

"Dinos, Dino Thunder Up!" He yelled as they morphed.

They jumped on their bikes and rode to the park. Tommy felt different in the Black. He knew that he was the Black Ranger but he also knew that White was his ranger's soul color. He was just having to wear Black right now. He had to get Kim back before she was turned evil.

XXXX

"Is it ready, Finster?" Zedd asked him.

He needed to hurry up and get Kim turned before Tommy managed to get her back. He sensed that Mesogogg sent an army. He would deal with that creature later. He had to turn Kimberly into the most feared ranger on Earth. She would be even more evil than that punk Tommy was.

"Yes it is. You may bring her. We will place her in the center of the room and blast this laser at her." Finster said as he got the laser charged while Zedd went to get Kim. He was worried about turning Kim. She would be even more powerful than Zedd.

"It's time my dear." Zedd said as he opened her cell. Kim stood there looking at him. She would not move. He would have to drag her out.

"I'm not your dear." She barked at him as he grabbed her arm and dragged her out. He placed her in the center and chained her so that she wouldn't move. She looked at the chains. She remembered that last time she was in chains at least this time she wasn't over a lava pit.

"Get on with it Finster!" Zedd yelled as Rita and Rito came up behind him.

They watched as a white beam of light hit Kim and surge into her body. Her body absorbed the blast and began to glow a menacing shade of white. They thought that it was weird that she was glowing white instead of pink but shrugged it off.

As the light, receded Kim looked at them and pulled her arms up with the chains attached. She broke the chains and they noticed that her eyes were glowing pink. She was more evil looking than Tommy when he was the Evil Green Ranger.

"Kimberly, welcome to the dark side. You will join me in the fight against the Power Rangers." Zedd said as he walked up to her. He wanted to attack now but knew that she needed to rest up so that the evil could take over her completely.

"Whoa Ed. I don't think that turning her evil was such as great idea." Rito said as he hid behind his sister. This new and improved Kim was scary.

"It was a great idea now follow me Kimberly." He said as he continued to walk towards her.

"What?" She said as he walked closer.

He took her hand and put her back into the cell. He wanted to keep her locked up so that she would rely on him completely.

Unbeknownst to him, she was having an internal war. She was fighting an inner fight for good and evil. As he locked the door, she sat down on the floor and closed her eyes.

She let her thoughts run rampant. She had another voice in her head as well as her own. She couldn't place it but she let the thoughts fly. She wanted to destroy the Power Rangers and knew that she needed Zedd for that purpose only then she would take him down. He would not control her. She would be a force to be reckoned with.

"Tommy doesn't look good." Aisha said as he went down to his knees in battle. She was worried about him. His signals were all over the map. She just knew that something was wrong with Kim. Tommy won't be getting worst if she was fine.

"I fear that Kimberly has been turned evil. I feel the shift in power. She is drawing strength and power from him. His Dino gem will keep him in power. He needs to be careful though." Zordon said as he shook his head.

He knew that Kim could beat this. He just had to get inside her head. He went upstairs to be alone. He sat at the table and began to work on Kim. She was going to be difficult he knew but he had to try. His thoughts went out to her but she was blocking his entry. He knew that this was bad if she could not win her inner war then everything would be lost.

"Where did Zordon go?" Zack asked as he turned from the fighting. He knew that Kim being evil was not a good thing. He was worried and knew that everyone else was too. He had faced Tommy but knew that facing Kim would hurt everyone. She was the glue to their team, they needed her back.

"He went upstairs." Kat said as she spoke up from the back of the room. Everyone knew that he needed to be alone. One of his rangers was in danger of never being good again. The heart of the team was becoming evil.

XXXX

The dinos finally defeated the monster and made their way back to Tommy's basement. Tommy was hurting more than he had ever. It felt like his powers were being drained.

He knew that Kim had been turned evil. He had felt this before. It was as if she was taking on his evil side that he had buried. He didn't think that she would survive if she took it on. He prayed that she would. They finally made it back and he went in search of Zordon. He found him in the kitchen with a sad look on his face.

"She's evil isn't she?" He asked him. He just knew that she was. He also knew that she was battling.

"Yes and its bad." He said as Tommy walked out outside. Zordon stood up and watched his White Ranger break down.

He knew that Tommy wanted to go after her but knew deep inside that he could not get her back. This was a battle that Kimberly had to fight with herself. She would be more powerful than any foe they had ever faced. Zordon turned as Kat walked up behind him.

"Are they going to be alright?" She asked her former mentor. She knew that what made Tommy and Kim's relationship great was their ability to lean on each other and be there for one another.

"Kat, it's up to Kimberly now. She must fight the evil inside of her. He could not do it for her even though he would love to. Her nightmares have led her here. He must hang on for her. If she loses him then she will never be back." He said as Kat looked on as her former leader and team member cried into the wind.

Her heart was breaking but she knew that it was not her place to go to him. He would only accept Jason that close to him right now. She heard footsteps on the stairs. She turned and saw that Jason was making his way up. He nodded to them and walked outside to his best friend.

Kat stood there and watched them. Zordon had gone back downstairs to see if he could help with anything. She stood there, watched Jason sit beside him, and looked out over the yard. They didn't say anything and she knew that they didn't have to. Their bodies and minds were talking. She could feel their thoughts flying between them. She turned and went back downstairs leaving them alone. She took a deep breath and prayed for Kim and Tommy.

Inside Kimberly's mind

"Kimberly."

"Who are you?"

"I'm you. The powerful side of you."

"What are you doing? This evil is not me."

"Oh it's you alright. It has always been apart of you. It is time for you to let it take over. You can destroy those Power Rangers and Zedd. He tried to hurt you years ago. He needs to be punished."

"Yes he needs to be punished. I will do that first."

Kim's thoughts were finally settling into a plan. She would destroy Zedd first then take on those Power Punks. She grinned an evil grin and let her eyes glow pink. She would finally get her revenge.

XXXX

"I think that it's time to see what she can do." Zedd told his wife. He saw the White Ranger breaking. He knew that it was time to attack and finally destroy those rangers. He smiled as he went to fetch Kimmy from her cell.
