"Yes, well son. Looks like you the only one left. Want me to make a few phone call," said his father jokingly.
"Dad, come on," said Ryan, but couldn't help but laugh. Back, on the altar three candles had been lit one was green, the other was white and the last one was red. The three candles that were lit meant something special to the light speed team, for they were the only ones there that knew what they stood for. For if it had not been for him none of them would be here today celebrating this day.

Billy did feel partly responsible for Tommy's sacrifice, but he knew Tommy would want him to go on. Cestra put her arms around Billy she too felt guilty. She had been the one to send Billy to the light crystal, but it was the way of the prophecy. "Tommy was a good man, no one will ever forget him," said Cerstra looking at Billy. Billy turned his head looking at Cestra and smiled back at her.
"Yeah, no one ever will, will they. I just hope some day I can be half the man he was," said Billy. Cestra leans closer to Billy.
"Who says you're not already," she kisses him softly.

Everyone else had gone to Angel Grove to Jason's, Rocky's, and Adams karate school. Celebrating a very important day, Tommy's birthday. The karate place was decorated with balloons and of course they were green, red, and white. There were a few gifts wrapped up sitting in the corner, music was playing in the background. Kim sat at a table with Aisha, Kat and Tonya they were all laughing watching Jason and Rocky playing with the two months old twin baby boys.
"Shouldn't some one tell them it's a little too early to be teaching them karate," said Tonya laughing. Jason and Rocky each had a baby in their arms, gently showing them little fake punches.
Jason held Tom Jr, in his arms and Rocky had l Tom's brother Trent in his arms. Jason smiled looking into the eyes of the little boy. "Alright little guy let get your uncle Rocky," said Jason. The little boy giggled lightly as Jason helps him punch Rocky lightly.
"Hey Trent your supposed to help me out, not join with them" laughed Rocky as Trent grabbed as hold of Rocky's ear pulling it. The girls all laughed watching the two. Adam and Zack came walking down the hall back from the back office with a cake in their hands. They went and set it down on the table where the girls were. Zach then looked over at Jason and Rocky and laughed.
"Hey kids were about ready to eat the cake!" said Zack.
"Will be there in a minute," said Rocky. Adam looked around and saw the rest of the guest hadn't arrived yet.
"Hey shouldn't Wes, Jen, Eric and Taylor be here about now," said Adam. Jason came walking over with Rocky and the two little boys. They set the babies in their car seats.
"Wes called about five minutes ago so they should be here any minute," said Jason, just as he said it the front door open and in walked Wes, Jen, Eric and Taylor.
"Sorry guys we would have been here sooner but, Taylor was driving and then we got pulled over. And then the officer and Eric got into a big argument," laughed Wes as he and Jen walked over, taking a seat at the table. Wes sat down next to Jason. Jason looked up at Eric and Taylor.
"Boy, I hope your kids don't turn out like you two or there'll be speeding tickets all over the place," laughed Jason everyone started to laugh as Eric and Taylor sat down.
"Ha-ha laugh all you want, but who says she got the ticket," said Eric, Rocky looked up and eyed Eric.
"So you got the ticket then,' joked Rocky. Eric just gave him a dirty look. Jen looked over at the two boys.
"Oh…their getting so big..." said Jen smiling. Kim smiled back at Jen.
"Yeah they sure are, their growing every day," said Kim smiling as she looked over at her two boys. The last gift Tommy left her with.
"Well should we get started," asked Aisha looking around the table. Jason nodded his head.
"Yeah…um…I like to make a toast," everyone raised there glass of punch. "To Tommy, with out him we probably wouldn't be here, happy birthday bro," said Jason looking at all of them in the eyes and then he meant with Kim smiling.
"To Tommy," they all said together. After that they all ate cake and talked about what had been happening over the last six months. What was, not talked about was the battles they fought, or any of their days as rangers. No today was a day of celebration to remember an old friend. Jen and Taylor had not meant Tommy but they knew his name was legend. Wes and Eric knew they would never forget the brave veteran leader they meant and fought along side with.
A couple hours had passed the party was still going on and light conversation was going on. Wes was playing with the two little boys along with Zack and Adam with a little stuffed bear. Jen was not too far behind Wes watching him and smiling as he played with the little boys. Wes picked up Trent and walked over to Jen. "You know Jen my birthday is coming up," said Wes grinning at her.
"Oh no….you are not going to talk me into that," Wes started giving a puppy face and the smile on Trent's race wasn't helping much. "Don't give me that looks Wesley Collins, you know we are not ready to be parent's," said Jen looking him straight in the eyes. Wes got closer to Jen and kissed her softly on the lips.
"Oh come on honey we've been married a little over six months, come on for me," said Wes smiling. Jen couldn't help but smile as she looked into his blue eyes.
Eric who was dancing with Taylor to the music just shook his head laughing. "Jen you better watch it, if there's one thing I know about Wes he always get what he wants," said Eric smiling.
The partly continued on as the two little boy had fallen asleep in their car seats. Wes and Jen had their arms wrapped around each other as they danced to the soft music, kissing each other softly. "Now about my birthday," said Wes giving that looked to Jen. Jen just shook her head, there he goes again.
"Aren't Birthday presents supposed to be a surprise," smiled Jen as she eyed him closely. Wes smiles and leaned in to kiss her deeply.
Eric and Taylor were dancing together smiling at one another. They maybe the two of the hardheaded people in the world, but they loved each other for it. "You know if you're going to be my wife we need to do something about that speeding record of yours," said Eric.
Taylor grinned and leans closer to Eric, "Now why would we when I have my own officer,' grinned Taylor as she kissed Eric.
Zack and Aisha were dancing together; the two had grown very close to each other. Zack was singing softly to the words of the song making Aisha smile and get lost looking into his eyes.
Adam and Tonya danced together smiling and looking each other in the eyes. They had loved each other for quite a long time. "I love you Tonya," said Adam softly.
"And I love you," said Tonya smiling back at him. Adam leaned closer to Tonya and kissed her softly on the lips and then whispered something in her ear to make her eyes light up.
Rocky was dancing with Kat. He smiled knowing he had the best dancing partner. "What?" asked Kat looking at him? Rocky grinned.
"Oh nothing, just that I think I have the best dancing partner out of this group," said Rocky as he continued to dance with her.
Kim watched smiling looking at them all happy, some of them were just friends and others were so much more. She sighed inside knowing that her special someone was far gone, or perhaps not? She turned looking over at her sleeping sons Tom Samuel Oliver Jr. and Trent David Oliver. They looked so much like their father. She laughed lightly when she saw that Jason had fallen asleep looking over the two. She knew she wouldn't have to worry about a father figure for her sons. There was Jason, Rocky, Adam, Zach and even Wes. Kim was about to kill him when he gave her the present from him and Jen it was check more then enough to support her and her two young sons through college.
A ghostly presence entered the room along with Xantara. It looked as though they couldn't be seen by anyone. "Go on Tommy just because they can't see does not mean they don't know your there," she smiled looking at him. He turned looking at her with a smile.
"Thank you this means a lot to me," said Tommy.
"You earned it after everything that has happened," she said. Tommy walked over to his two sleeping sons.
He knelt down in front of them smiling. They looked perfect to him. He lightly rubbed both of their hands with his fingers. "Hey guys not sure if you can hear me, but I want you to know your daddy loves you. And you guys are going to be okay. Trust me I left a lot of great people to look after you," said Tommy. The two boys yawned softly, Tommy smiled. He then kissed them softly on their heads. His eyes fell on Jason his friend. "Jas, I know you'll take good care of my boys and Kim. Take care of her for me," said Tommy softly.
"Sure thin..gTommy," said Jason softly as he mumbled in his sleep. Tommy looked one last time at his sons and then looked over at Kim. He smiled lightly she had been so brave for these last months.
He slowly walked up behind her he put his arms around her neck holding her close. Just to hold her once again brought tears to his eyes. He held her for several long minutes letting the time pass him by. Then he felt Kim place her hand on top of his hand, he knew she couldn't see him or even feel his body around her. "Always be here for you Kim," said Tommy softly.
"I know you will," said Kim softly.
Tommy continued to hold her until Xantara walked over to him. She placed her hand on his shoulder. Tommy turned his head looking at her. "It's time, their calling for you," she said smiling as she looked up above. Tommy lightly nodded his head. He turned back to Kim and ghosted a kiss on her cheek softly. He then let go and back away following Xantara.
Kim then got this feeling over her, her cheek felt cold. She touched it and then turned around looking over at the front door was Tommy faded a little looking at all of them. Watching over all of them. Kim seemed frozen in that moment until her eyes were locked with Tommy's.
"I love you," whispered Kim. Tommy whispered back something so softly, she almost couldn't hear it. Kimberly felt tears go down her cheek and she nodded her head softly. She then watched as Tommy faded away along with Xantara.
Kim sniffled a little. She knew now that Tommy would always be there for her in her heart, her memories and in her boys. Kim felt a hand on her shoulder. She turned around to find Jason. "You okay Kim," he asked softly. She smiled back at him.
"Yeah, I'm going to be just fine," said Kim, Jason smiled nodding his head. He looked around to see everyone dancing.
"You wanna dance," he asked.
"I love to," said Kim smiling. Jason and Kim began to dance along with the others.
"And so Zordons prophecy was fulfilled, the CellBorgs had come to destroy Earth as well as the universe. Billy had been on Aquatar and was sent on a journey to find the light crystal unknown just how important his task would be in this. The Dark Wizard had created a clone from Tommy unknowingly, that he just insured the safely and survival of the entire universe. Tommy had given up everything to save all those he loved and cared for. And he will never be forgotten by all those that knew him and own their life to him…….." Xantara words drifted off into space
