The others looked on as Tommy tried contacting Zordon, but to no avail. He turned and faced the others.

"Nothing, I can't get a decent signal."

"And we can't teleport there?" Rocky asked. He shook his head and sighed.

"We can't cross through time, Zordon can send us, and bring us back, but we can't." The others' shoulders dropped into defeat, but Billy was struck with an idea.

"There has to be some power." He muttered. Adam looked at him, and raised an eyebrow.

"Power? What power Billy?" The others looked interested in what the young genius had to say.

"Well where the command center is, or was well in this case will be…there is power, there has to be a large magnitude of power to hold a place of such magic…"

"And power! I follow!" Kat said, her smile hidden by her helmet. "And by accessing that power, we can probably breech whatever needs to be passed so we can contact Zordon?"

"Precisely Katherine! All we need to do is…"

"Get to the site of the command center, or would be command center." Adam interrupted and finished Billy's statement.

"Exactly, so what are we waiting for? We might have saved our hides, but we still have to get Kim back here." Tommy said matter-of-factly.

"Right, teleporting…now" Billy punched a few buttons and in a second they were being teleported to the place where they hoped they would be able to contact Zordon.

          "I said let go of me you freak!" Kim screamed and hit Goldar's back with her fists. Goldar muttered something not understandable to her, though she kept screaming.

"Hades! What is that incessant shrieking that is echoing off the walls?" Zed's shrill voice rang out.

"That would be the ex pink power brat Master." Goldar replied and walked into the main chamber, and threw down Kim.

"Hey! That was really uncalled for!" she shouted. Goldar turned around ready to hit her when Zed cried out.

"Touch her and you die."

"Yes master, Tengas, gag and cuff her!" A group of tengas flapped their way to her and she struggled as they shackled her hands and feet and gagged her. She glared daggers at Zed, who walked over towards her, his staff in hand.

"So this is the pretty pink ranger's ancestor, why they could be twins, You've done well Goldar, take her to a room, make sure she isn't harmed, though don't make the princess too comfortable." He smirked through the mask of steel and turned to walk back over to the throne.

"ZED!!!!!!!" Rita's voice yelled as she stormed into the chamber and glared at her husband.

"Yes motor mouth." He muttered.

"Our plan isn't working! There's some stupid power puke there!" she yelled and pointed towards the Earth. "Out of nowhere and all of a sudden, its' kicking our monsters butts!"

"Well who is it!" he snapped and she pouted.

"Well I don't know, I just know they're against us, and its just one! Not six, but one!" She looked over at the corner to see Kim struggling then looked back over at Zed. "And that is?" she asked.


 "Meet Kimberly Hart, our favorite little ex ranger's ancestor. My plan is to use her to lure the rangers in and destroy them, her along with them."

"Zeddy! It's perfect, we kill two birds with one stone, more like seven." She laughed.

"No more like eight including this new pest." Zed reminded her and looked over at Kimberly. "Never thought a Power Ranger would be my best asset." Kim tried lunging at him, only to not get far.

"Watch her struggle, its fun." Goldar smirked.

***

          Kim fought off a few more tengas and putties and sighed. "God this is tiring!" she thought for a moment and smirked. "Time to try out that new fire power." She raised her hand and called out.

"Panther Ninjazord power now!" she watched in amazement as the panther zord came down. "Wow." She murmured. "Lets get to it!" she teleported to the cockpit and began working.

"Now this is what I call a zord!" she laughed as she sent a smaller missile aimed at a large group of putties. Moving around easily through the city without harming any people or buildings, but targeting and hitting all she needed to.

"This is too easy." She flicked a switch and the Panther zord leaped onto a building, and perched there, waiting for its prey.

"Kimberly, come back to the command center immediately, Ay-yi-yi!" Alpha's voice came through.

"I'm on my way Alpha." She responded and turned the panther around. "Take me home kitty!" she said happily and the panther leaped off the building and made its way to the command center.

***

Tommy and the others arrived at the site of the command center and looked around. They all had powered down and began looking around.

"What should we be looking for Billy?" Rocky asked glancing at the sand that surrounded them.

"Anything that we can get a connection with right?" Aisha suggested as she kicked some sand around.

"Yes, and when we find it, then we can make a direct connection." Billy nodded and scanned around. They were spread out around where they thought the perimeter of the command center would be.

"Hey guys I think I…never mind, its just a rock." Adam muttered and threw the rock over to where Kat was looking. It make a clink noise and she stopped searching.

"That's odd." She said softly. Adam looked over at her and walked towards her spot.

"What is?" she waved him closer and she moved the rock and began batting the sand away with her hand.

"It made a clink noise, sand usually doesn't clink." She replied brushing more sand away, she stopped when she reached something solid.

"Um guys, I think you should come over here, Kat found something!" Adam called out. The others made their way over and looked down.

"What is it?" Rocky asked as he watched Kat finger what she had found.

"Well it looks like some sort of…lock and its missing a…" she trailed off and her eyes brightened. "Oh my gosh!"


 "What what?" Aisha asked. Kat didn't answer, she took out her power coin and held it up, then looked down at the lock.

"I think I see where you're going with this." Tommy nodded. Kat placed the power coin in the lock and it proved to be a perfect fit. 

"Kat move!" Billy yelled as the ground began to shake and the lock began to move u. They all moved back to see a large pedestal come up out of the ground with a hexagon shape, a circular type lock in every corner, Kat's occupying the top right one.

"You think that's it?" Rocky asked Billy. He shrugged and grabbed his power coin placing it in one of the middle corners.

"Only one way to find out." The others followed after Billy put in his, Tommy being the last.

"So what now?" He asked after he put his in. Before Billy could answer a gold light shot out from the middle and began showering them in golden sparks.

"We trying contacting." Billy said encouraging Tommy to try. He pressed his communicator.

"Zordon, can you hear us? Zordon." He repeated waiting for an answer.

***

Alpha was looking at the viewing globe, as the destruction hit the city once more when the transmission came through.


 "Zordon, can you hear us? Zordon." It came through loud and clear.

"Ay-yi-yi Tommy! We hear you yes!" Alpha replied. There was a sigh of relief and a light chuckle.

"Its good to hear you Alpha." He replied.

"AS IT IS GOOD TO HEAR YOU TOO TOMMY, HOW ARE THINGS?"

"Great, well not really, we destroyed the monster but we need to get back as soon as possible."

"THE CITY IS UNDER ATTACK BUT WHY THE URGENCY IF YOU DIDN'T KNOW?" Zordon asked.

"Well Goldar took Kim with him and has her on the moon palace in the future we need to get back to save her."

"AND SAVE THE CITY, ALPHA BEGIN TELEPORTATION SEQUENCE."

"Beginning sequence now let me just put in the coordinates." He punched it in the pressed the teleportation button. "Teleporting now, Ay-yi-yi Rangers it'll be good to have you home."

"It'll be good to be home Alpha." Tommy replied then cut the transmission.

***

          The others arrived into the middle of the command center, all smiling and happy.


 "I'm so glad to be back!" Aisha smiled up at Zordon. "I missed you Zordon."

"AS I HAVE MISSED YOU, I'M GLAD YOU ARRIVED, COMPLETED YOUR MISSION AND CAME BACK SAFELY."

"So are we." Kat said distractedly as she watched the viewing globe. "Wow that bad huh?"

"Home sweet home." Adam muttered as he watched. They were all focused on the viewing globe that they didn't see the ranger clad in black and pink walk in. Tommy looked up first and got into a fighting stance.

"Who are you?" he asked. The ranger looked up at Zordon, then back at Tommy. Zordon gave a nod and the ranger proceeded to begin taking off their helmet.

By Tommy's observations he could tell it was female, the uniform resembling the uniform of the pink ranger except it was dark pink and black. She took off the helmet and Tommy had to pinch himself.

"Do you greet everyone like that or am I just special Tommy?" she grinned and held her helmet under her arm.

"Kim!" Kat and Aisha said excitedly as they ran up to their friend and hugged her. She laughed and returned the group hug.

"Good to see you both too." She replied then pulled away, the others except Tommy walked up to her and hugged her.

"Its good to see you back in ranger attire Kimmy." Rocky laughed and she glared at him.

"I can still kick your butt Rocko don't go there." She poked him lightly then hugged Adam again.

"Hey there Danny Zuko." She joked as she looked at his 50's attire. He rolled his eyes.

"First the frog jokes now this, it'll never end." She laughed and turned to Billy hugging him tightly.

"Oooh its so good to see you!" she said happily as she hugged the guy who was like a brother to her.

"Same here Kimberly, I've missed you, and you haven't kept up correspondence." He joked lightly she nodded.

"Sorry about that but I will get better I promise." She pulled away from his embrace and looked over at Tommy. Placing her helmet on one of the consoles she puts her hands on her hips.

"Well? I don't get a hello?" she says with mock sternness. He grinned and walked over wrapping her in his arms.

"Beautiful, I missed you." He murmured into her hair. "Like you wouldn't believe." He added. She smiled and wrapped her arms around him.

"Wow I know a month is a long time but…"

"I'll have to fill you in later, I promise." He laughed lightly and pulled away, placing a kiss on her forehead. "Right now we have a city to save and an ancestor to save."

"Yeah what's going on about that." She asked. Aisha pulled her away and began filling her in on what had gone on while Tommy and the others began planning an attack.  The alarms went off and they all turned toward the viewing globe.

"RANGERS, THE SENSORS HAS DECTECTED ANOTHER DISTRUBANCE IN THE CITY." Zordon announced as they watched the destruction.

"They sent down Goldar." Adam muttered as he watched a very Large Goldar begin terrorizing the city.

"Ew and he's still as ugly as ever." Kim made a face and Aisha nodded, smiling at bit.

"Well lets go guys, we have Kim to save." Tommy stated. Kim looked up at him and he rolled his eyes. "The other Kim."

"Thank you, so there won't be anymore confusion." She smiled at the others. "See you on the battlefield, Back to Action!" she called out and teleported out. Tommy smiled briefly.

"Alright guys, lets go kick some butt!'

"Right!" they agreed in unison.

"It's Morphin Time!"

"The Falcon!"

"The Frog!"

"The Ape!"

"The Crane!"

"The Wolf!"

"The Bear!"

"MAY THE POWER PROTECT YOU!" The old sage said as they departed from the command center.

***

          The others arrived in the middle of the city, surveying the destruction. "Geez, talk about a mess." Kat looked around at the smashed up cars, torn buildings and streets lined with other debris.

"Rangers! Come out where ever you are! Don't hide! I have my little gift with me and if you don't show up, she gets it!" Goldar's voice boomed from somewhere in the city.

"Alright guys, its time to take care of business!"

"Calling out the big guns right Tommy?" Rocky asked and Tommy nodded.

"We need ninjazord power now!"

"Ninja Crane Zord!"

"Ninja Ape Zord!"

"Ninja Wolf Zord!"

"Ninja Frog Zord!"

"Ninja Falcon Zord!"

"Ninja Bear Zord!"

"Ninjazords power up!" they called and soon were in the cockpits of their zords.

"I say we go major since he's playing mean!" Aisha called flipping a few switches.

"I couldn't agree more Sha, We need Ninja Megazord power now!" Tommy called out and the Ninja Falcon Megazord was formed.

"Alright lets nail this bad boy." Aisha called from her spot. They all nodded as they sent a punch towards Goldar's midsection.

"Anyone seen Kim?" Adam asked as they got into a hand to hand combat with Goldar.

"Looking for me?" Kim's voice came over the speakers. "Ninja Panther zord battle mode!" she called out, her zord turning into a battle zord of its own.

"Goldar doesn't know what he's against." Tommy said as they both fought against the enemy.

"Meddling pests, we'll have to finish this at a later time, I have to attend to my guest!" Goldar laughed and was gone.

"I can't believe that!" Kim said upset as she hit the control panel in rage.

"Its ok, lets get back to the command center and see if there's something we can do to get the other Kim out of there." Adam said trying to calm Kim down.


 "Yeah that sounds like a plan, lets do it."

***

          They regrouped back at the command center, preparing to come up with a plan on what to do.

"Anybody have anything?" Tommy asked as they all stood around, looking at one another.

"I wish I did, I can't come up with anything though." Aisha shrugged and Rocky put an arm around her shoulders.

"If we could just teleport there, grab her and get out, without being caught, that would be the ideal plan." Kim sighed and leaned against Tommy, who wrapped his arms around her and shook his head.

"Too much of a risk, though that would be the best plan." He nodded. Billy sat in thought then came up with an idea.

"Well knowing the way Goldar operates he'll gloat that he has her captive and tote her around as if she were a trophy." He began.

"Meaning if we get a good enough shot when he has her around, we can get her." Kim concluded, getting a smile from Billy.

"Affirmative, therefore…"

"We just sit around and wait for Goldar to attack?" Rocky asked. Billy shrugged and gave a nod.

"Well that's all we can do."  They all agreed to go home, rest a while and meet up at the juice bar later on.

"Kimberly?"

"Yeah Tommy?" she turned and looked at him. He slipped his hand into hers and gave it a tiny squeeze.

"How about we go out for a walk? Just to talk and stuff." She smiled up at him and nodded.

"I'd like that."

"Hey Kim!" Rocky called out before her and Tommy had disappeared. She turned and looked at him.

"Yeah Rocko?"

"So you're the pink panther huh?" he smirked. Kim shook her head and the others laughed.  Aisha hit him in the back of the head and walked off.

"What? You know it was funny!" he defended himself.
