Within just a few short weeks, Tommy and Kimberly lost track of how long they had been in Rita and Zedd's evil clutches. Rita and Zedd decided to keep Kimberly and Tommy in the cage full time to prevent them from trying to escape. They used magic to refill the bird feeder and they added play stands, bird toys, and horizontal bars to keep Kimberly and Tommy entertained.

"For some reason, the green slime woman left after she brought us here," Kimberly told Tommy. "I wonder where she's been all this time?"

"I have no idea," Tommy replied. "I'm sure that she has a really good reason for being gone all this time."

"What if she went to help her son?" Kimberly questioned while standing close to Tommy. "I know he will be just as bad as Alvin."

Tommy didn't answer. His eyes were locked on the entrance to the throne room, as the doors swung open and figure began to walk in.

"Kim, I think someone's coming," Tommy whispered as he took Kimberly under his wing. Fear began to run through both of their bodies as a younger version of Ivan Ooze walked into the room. "That must be Alvin."

"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THE OOZE IS HERE!" Alvin shouted as he made his way to Zedd's throne.

"I'm Lord Zedd, ruler of all evil," Zedd stated as he introduced himself. "It's an honor to finally meet you. I've heard a lot about you through your mother."

"He's so handsome," Rita stated as she saw the younger version of Ivan.

"Why, thank you," Alvin smirked as he shook Rita's hand. He began to look all around the room as he searched for something. However, he didn't see it and his smile turned into a disgusted frown. "My mother told me you had Tommy Oliver. I don't see him. Where is he?!"

"He's over there in that cage," Rita assured him as she points to the cage.

Alvin turned and looked at the cage. "All I see is a white falcon and a pink crane," Alvin huffed as he looked at Rita. "Where is he!"

"Zeddy, you tell me that this guy is brilliant and a master of disaster," Rita exploded as her turned bright red. "He's just like his father, just slime and has brain as big as peanut!"

"No body insults my father in front of me and gets away with it!" Alvin yelled as he snapped his hand and a huge wad of ooze went flying across the room. It landed across Rita's mouth.

Zedd got up from his throne and picked up his Z staff. "Finally, I don't have to hear her complain all the time!" Zedd remarked as he walked over to the big cage. "I promise you Alvin, we have them. We just turned them into a falcon and a crane."

"Wait a minute, you said them," Alvin interrupted. "Who is the other one?"

"Rita and I were always trying to capture Kimberly," Zedd explained as he stood by the cage. "But, Tommy always rescued her from us. This time, we are taking precautions. We know that their greatest weakness is each other. So, we captured both. We decided to turn them into a falcon and a crane because they will be useless to the team if they are ever rescued. Rita and I are the only ones who can turn them back and there's another way too. I'll tell you about it later."

Alvin looked inside the cage at Tommy and Kimberly. "I assume, she's that cute little pink ranger that my father talked about," Alvin smiled as he watched as Tommy hold Kimberly close to him under his wing. "She's a prefect bonus. I want to speak with them face to face."

"When I turned them into a falcon and a crane, I put a spell on them where they can communicate with you, Irina, Rita, Goldar, or myself," Zedd assured him.

"I want to talk to Tommy in his human form," requested Alvin as he glared at them. "I've waited a long time to see what the leader of power rangers looked like. And I've been wanting to come face to face with the cute little pink ranger. I heard she was second in command. So, I'm also holding her responsible as well as Zordon of Eltar. I promise you they won't escape while I am talking to them. And you can turn them back into birds as soon as I finish my chat with them."

Zedd sparks came out of Zedd's wand and hit Tommy and Kimberly. Both fell asleep and Zedd took them out of their cage. He carried them into a small empty room and just pitched them in there. He pointed his wand at them and sparks hit them.

Tommy let out a moan as he opened his eyes. He felt the cold floor touching his cheek. "I'm a human again!" he gasped as he sat up. As he shook his head to clear away his dizziness, he saw he was in a small chamber. There was a cold breeze in the room and he started rubbing his arms to warm himself up. Suddenly, it dawned on him why he was chilly. He was in his nude form.

He heard someone moaning. Tommy looked up and saw Kimberly laying a few feet away from him. She was also in her nude form, but she was shivering. Tommy quickly got up and walked over to her. He scooped her up in his arms and looked to see if there was a blanket, a towel or sheet he could use to cover her up with. In the corner laid a purple blanket. "Prefect!" he cheered as he picked up the blanket. He sat down against the wall and covered Kimberly up. She was still shivering in his arms. For a few minutes, he didn't do anything but her in his arms, trying to her warm with his body heat. As he held her he smiled as he gazed at her face. For weeks, he wanted to wrap her in his arms and he wanted to kiss her. Tommy tilted her face upwards and then gently kissed her cheeks and forehead.

Kimberly slowly opened her eyes and felt Tommy kissing her on the lips. She cupped his face and started kissing him in return. After sharing a long kiss for several minutes, they had to break apart to catch their breath. "I can't even begin to tell you how good it felt to finally be able to kiss you again," Kimberly smiled as she gazed into his chocolate eyes.

"I know the feeling," Tommy replied as he felt her get up to hug his neck. "And I've missed us being able to hug each other."

"At least I have you with me," she purred as she sat in his lap.

Suddenly, Kimberly began to feel cold and she started shivering again. "Beautiful, I'll keep you warm," Tommy assured her as he threw the blanket back over them and wrapped his arms around her tiny shoulders."Is this better?"

"Much," she answered. She loved feeling his warm bare chest brush up against her back.

"I'm glad," he whispered as he kissed on the head. As he held her close, Tommy appreciated her soft, warm, and smooth skin warming him with body heat.

"Tommy, you're squeezing me," Kimberly cried out. "Can you please loosen your grip."

Tommy looked down and saw their blanket was turning into ooze chain. "Kim, I can't," Tommy answered as he felt the ooze chains wrap around both.

They heard heavy foot steps outside the room. "Someone's coming," Kimberly whispered. "What if it's Alvin?"

"Don't worry," he reassured her while he felt the sticky ooze against his bare skin. "I love you and won't let him take you from me."

The door opened and a young version of Ivan Ooze walked into the room. "Allow me to introduce myself," Alvin requested as he kicked the door behind him. " I am feared all over the galaxy. I am Alvin Ooze."

Alvin walked over to Tommy and Kimberly. He threw ooze on the floor and used his magic flute to turn it into a folding chair. Once the slimy and gross chair was formed, he took a seat. "Tommy Oliver, we meet at last," Alvin smirked. "I know you are the white ranger and leader of the team who killed my father."

"Mr. Raisin-head, he didn't go out a slay your father," defended Kimberly as she looked into a pair of evil purple eyes. "For your information, Ryan's Comet destroyed him, after he chased us into space."

"I should have known that the cute little pink ranger would open her big mouth," Alvin remarked. "My mother told me that the white ranger has a crush on the cute little pink ranger. Mother told me that you were defending pinky when she was about to get in trouble."

"It's the truth," Tommy hissed as he glared at Alvin. "And it's not a crush, I love her and I'm going to marry her."

"Oh, where's my wedding invitation?" Alvin mocked as he looked at the two of them stuck to the wall.

"We don't want you or your disgusting family at our wedding!" Tommy informed him. "All of you are cruel disgusting slime-"

"No body insults my family and gets away with it!" Alvin shouted as he threw a wad of ooze and it splattered across Tommy's face.

"Mmmph, mmmffff, mmmmph," Tommy grunted while he struggled to open his mouth. But, the ooze had sealed his mouth shut and he couldn't get it off."Rrgh, mmffpprr, mmrrrph!"

"Now, Kimberly we can finally talk without Tommy interrupting," Alvin smiled as he watching Tommy struggling to get the ooze off his mouth. "You're a very beautiful girl. You'd be a prefect model."

"I'm not interested in modeling," Kimberly explained as she rested her head on Tommy's shoulder. "My mother was married to a French painter and she modeled for his art classes. He was so wrapped up in his classes and painting. It caused them to have trouble in their marriage. He was never home and she only saw him when she was modeling for his classes. They fought over her not being able to stay posed and not getting enough breaks."

"Really?" Alvin gasped as he put his hand over his mouth. "I promise you that you'll like modeling."

"I really don't think I would," she replied. "I would have to be away for fashion shows and art classes and I wouldn't have any time with Tommy. It wouldn't be good for our marriage."

Alvin started pacing around the room. "Caroline Hart was the best art model in Paris," Alvin revealed after several minutes of silence. "She was married to Pierre Dumas. He's a famous French painter."

"Wait a minute!" Kimberly interrupted as soon as she heard Alvin say those two names. "How did you know who Caroline Hart and Pierre Dumas are?"

"It's your mother and former step father," he smiled as he sat down in the chair.

"How did you know who they are?!" Kimberly gasped. Something just wasn't right. She could feel it in her bones.

Alvin stood there and began to transform. A few seconds later, a tall man with dark brown. He had on red Beret, and a painter's coat. "Mmmph, mmmph?" Tommy muffled out in question.

"No, way?!" Kimberly cried out in disbelief.

Alvin quickly transformed back into his purple like ooze appearance. "Yes, it was me," Alvin answered as he transformed back. "It was me a long. I did everything I could to make sure she fell in love with me. Then after several months, I asked her to marry me and she said yes. When she went back to Paris after the Christmas pageant, she started doing fashion modeling and art modeling for me. Then I met Gunther Schmidt. He was looking for someone to train, I told him you were into gymnastics. That is why he came to Angel Grove. He wasn't going to take you to the Pan Global Games when they started. Instead, he was going to bring you to me-"

"Rmrpmrmr!" Tommy interrupted as he glared at Alvin wanting answers. "Rmrprmrm!"

"But, you had to stick your nose in other people's business!" Alvin yelled as he pointed his finger at Tommy. "I warned Coach Schmidt about you. I told him that he should get rid of you first. But, he thought he could handle you himself. I thought he could until he ended up going to jail."

"You the person that Coach Schmidt was talking to on his cell phone?" Kimberly realized.

"Very good Ms. Hart," complimented Alvin, while was enjoying his moment of glory. "Coach Schmidt hated Tommy so much from the moment he saw him. Then he found out Tommy was allergic to peanut butter and it would make him quit breathing. So, he pulled the stunt and almost succeed until you saved the day? Why did you do it? Coach Schmidt said you were good and mad at Tommy for trying to find what was going on at gymnastics practice."

"I love him," she admitted as she rests her head on Tommy's shoulder.

"Is that when you fell in love with him?" Alvin remarked as he crossed his arms. "Or are you just saying that? You probably didn't want to feel guilty over how you treated him."

"I was in love with him long before then," Kimberly revealed as Alvin kneeled in front of her. "Probably around the time we got to be really close friends."

"Why did you love him?" Alvin asked as he was losing his temper.

"I don't know or why. I just did."

An evil smile appeared on Alvin's face. He decided it was time to reveal some things. "Kimberly, I bet your scared now," Alvin remarked as he got out his flute and he turned to face the chair that he made. He played his flute and it turned to an arm chair. The chair had nice soft padding. He took a seat. "All you have covering your bodies is my ooze chains, neither one of you can move, and Tommy isn't able to talk to you."

Ooze chains were holding them in place from the shoulders down. The slimy ooze stuck to Kimberly and Tommy's bare skin like glue and felt sticky. However, she felt safe simply by having him with her and his arms wrapped around her shoulders. "Actually, I'm not scared," she acknowledged. "When I'm with him, I feel warm, safe, secure, and loved. Tommy's loyal, sweet, and caring. I feel that I've found the person I belong with."

"Do you know why Caroline agreed to let you stay in Angel Grove?" Alvin asked.

"Because she wanted me to graduate with my friends," Kimberly answered as she looked up in to Alvin's face.

"Because she didn't want you to be around us when we were fighting all the time," Alvin corrected her. He got up from his chair and started pacing around the room. "We were fighting because she didn't want you to be an art model when you came to Paris."

Kimberly felt her heart skip a beat as soon as she heard the news. Caroline had never told her any of that. "That must be when you were having trouble!" Kimberly gulped.

"Yes, you are correct," Alvin announced when walked over to them. "She was modeling half of the day since all of my other models were quitting all the time. When she wasn't art modeling, she was being my manikin my clothing store at the mall. She was always in the formal wear department or swimsuit department."

"You didn't expect her to remain like a statue all day," Kimberly question. Her heart was pounding on the bars of her rib cage. There was no way she could do that."

"Yes, she could," Alvin informed Kimberly as he grabbed her face. "I used my flute to turn her into a statue for several hours. She stayed in the window all night. When morning came, I played my flute and she could move again. As soon as the mornings arrived, she went to get ready for my art classes. That is the real reason she kept canceling all her visits with you. Then one day we got into a fight during my art class. She ran away and hid. I found her eventually, but she saw me in this form. I made her write you the letter right before I drained her life force."

After she wrote you that letter, she found out who I really was. I drained her of her life force because I couldn't let her expose my plans."

"Why did you do that?" Kimberly questioned as tears formed in her eyes. "She did nothing wrong!"

Alvin slapped her across the face in anger. "Yes, she did!" he yelled out. "My mother was with me when we found her. She told Caroline that she was the cheerleading coach at your school and she was going to capture you and Tommy. Caroline was going to warn you about our plans. But, I couldn't let her do that." Alvin let go of Kimberly's face and there were small cuts on her face where Alvin drove his sharp finger nails into her skin. He moved over to Tommy and started his knife-like finger nails across Tommy's forehead as hard as he could.

"Mmmph, mfpmffmf, mmmfff!" Tommy cried out in pain. Alvin ignored Tommy's cries and continued to scratch him. "MMMMPH!"

"STOP HURTING HIM!" Kimberly yelled when heard Tommy cry out in more pain.

Zedd opened the door and walked in the room. He was carrying the clothes that Kimberly and Tommy were wearing when they first came to his palace. "Before we change them back, I want to make the pink ranger my bride," Zedd explained as he walked into the room. "We're going to a wedding chapel. And Tommy is going to walk her down the aisle and give her away to me."

He waved his wand. All of them were in a wedding chapel. Tommy stood there in his black tuxedo, a white dress shirt, and green tie. A red rose was pinned to his jacket. Kimberly stood next to him dressed in her rose evening gown. Her long bangs were curled and hanging down. The rest of her hair was curled and twisted up in a bun.

Zedd stood at the end of the isle waiting for Kimberly. "This should be us," Kimberly sobbed as she wrapped her arms around Tommy. "I don't love him, I love you. I'm not going through with this."

"Kim, what if you could marry me today instead?" Tommy asked as he just stood there holding her in his arms. "Would you go through the wedding then?"

"You know I would," she replied as laid her head on his chest. "But, is that even possible?"

"Remember what we learned about those who possess the great power?" Tommy asked her as he let go off her and held her hand in a nice firm grip. "All things are possible."

He gently took his hand and wiped her tears away. "How do we pull that off?" Kimberly questioned as she saw Rito standing outside the entrance. "We can't leave."

The music began to play and Tommy just looked around to find a place for them to go to. "There's a closet nearby," Tommy whispered. He grabbed her hand and lead her inside the closet and closed the door. He turned the light on long enough to lock the door.

"WHERE IS SHE!?" Zedd screamed in anger. His voice echoed all through the wedding chapel. "WE'RE NOT LEAVING UNTIL KIMBERLY IS OFFICALLY MARRIED!"

Kimberly sat on the dusty floor wrapped in Tommy's arms. "Now what are we going to do?" she whispered as she started shaking. "Zedd is eventually going to find us."

"Beautiful, everything is going to be okay," Tommy promised her as he held her tight in his arms. "I'm not going to give you away. You're mine and mine only. Zedd has Goldar as his best man and you need to have a maid of honor. You haven't chosen yet?"

"Tommy, that's it!" Kimberly gasped as she kissed him on the cheek. "I think we may have found the answer to the problem! I have the perfect person in mind!"

Will Kimberly end up marrying Tommy or be forced to marry Zedd? Who does she have in mind for her maid of honor?" Find out in chapter 7.
