Always a Frog, Never a Prince
---------------------------------------
He was going to make Rocky pay for this. He swore that he'd make Rocky pay, as soon as he got free he was going to make sure the red ranger never forgot the day that he handcuffed Adam Park to a sink.
Kimberly sat opposite him, also handcuffed, but she was seated on the toilet with the cuffs restraining her by being placed strategically around a pipe. "What in the hell are you doing Trini?" Kimberly had yelled at her best friend who had paused for a moment to flash a smile.
"It's nothing personal Kim," the yellow ranger said, she made sure the pink ranger was trapped, "But while I was beating Rocky we managed to find an understanding. He tells me everything he knows about something we've talked about, and I spare his life."
"Damn it Rocky, you Judas, how could you do this?" Adam yelled at the red ranger who was having a whale of a time poking him in the forehead.
The red ranger ceased his relentless poking and shrugged, "Me and Trini came to an understanding, right Trine?" The yellow ranger turned her head and nodded.
"And what understanding is that?"
"Aside from the fact that you two," he pointed to the trapped rangers, "sold me down the river for no good reason, Trini made me an offer I couldn't refuse."
"Free bacon," Trini commented from over her shoulder.
Adam stared at his best friend in disbelief, "Christ Rocky. I never thought all that time we were joking that you were serious."
Rocky shrugged, "What can I say? I love bacon."
From then on they'd completed the job in silence before hanging the keys to the cuffs on a hook on the door before leaving the room laughing, they were obviously extremely pleased with themselves.
And so there they were
Pink and black ranger
Trapped
In Rocky's bathroom
Kimberly knew why Trini was doing this. She was still trying to prove that something had happened between Kimberly and Adam that night. Going for one walk was beginning to turn into one of the biggest annoyances she'd ever experienced.
"I'm sorry about this Kim," Adam offered, both of his hands firmly cuffed behind his back.
The pink ranger smiled, "Trust me Adam, this is more Trini's idea than Rocky's."
"True. Rocky doesn't have the smarts to think up something like this. But do you know what's really disturbing about this entire situation?" Kimberly shook her head, "What's Rocky doing with two pairs of handcuffs in his dorm?"
---------------------------------------
Tommy had searched high and low for Kimberly, but there was still no sign of her. He'd been to Adam's dorm, and Trini's, but neither of them was home. Later he'd seen Trini drive past with Rocky, both of them were laughing at something. He'd been through the park, to the youth and leisure centers and checked all of the malls. But it was as if Kimberly had vanished.
Letting out a disgruntled sigh he collapsed onto a park bench and decided to take a five minute break. Maybe after that he'd be thinking clearer.
It wasn't working
Whatever he thought about always brought him back to Kat, and the way she'd sounded during their argument. Angry was way off. Pissed wasn't it either. And you can imagine where it went from there.
The last words she said to him echoed through his head.
"Don't you see it Tommy. You're obsessed with Kimberly Ann Hart," he'd replied that she was blowing the whole thing out of proportion, to which she responded. "I need to be able to trust you Tommy, to know that when we're making love you're thinking about me and not Kimberly." Then there'd been a moment's silence before, "I need some time to think, stay somewhere else tonight, and the next time we talk it'll because of one of two reasons. Either to tell you to come home, or to tell you to move out."
Tommy got off the bench, he couldn't lose Kat, she was the one who'd held him together after Kimberly had left, the one who had shown him that there were other women for him. And because of one stupid decision he could now be left alone again, and that was something he definitely didn't want.
---------------------------------------
Rocky had been a complete waste of time. He had no affirming evidence on whether there was anything going on between Kim and Adam. In fact, when asked about it all Rocky said was, "I think they like each other."
"Useless," Trini muttered. There was one good thing that had come out of the day though; she'd gotten her revenge on Rocky. A cunning smile crossed her face while thinking about Rocky having to walk all the way back to Angel Grove, through the scorched desert, with no shoes. She took a sideways glance at the sneakers she'd practically ripped off of him before throwing him out of her car.
Feeling very happy about herself she took notice of her cell phone vibrating on the dash. Grabbing it she pressed the answer button and held it to her ear. "Hello?"
(Hi Trini. It's Kat.)
"Oh hey Kat, you will never guess what I just did to Rocky," Trini was about to begin her enthusiastic explanation but the pink rangers voice cut her off.
(I'd like to hear it Trini but I need to ask you something.)
"Shoot!"
(Do you know where I can find Kimberly?) Trini froze and for a good while she remained silent, (Trini, you there? I can't find her at Adam's and I figured since you're her best friend you might know what she was planning to do today.)
"Why do you need to see Kimberly?" Trini asked offhandedly, feigning that she was just interested and not worried.
(I need to talk to her about something, it's pretty important.) There was another long pause, (I take it you know what happened between her and Tommy. Aisha let me know, and I just think that Kimberly and I should sort some things out.) Trini stayed silent for well over a minute, she cursed Aisha; that big mouth of hers was always getting other people into trouble. (Trini! You still there?)
"Uh, yeah Kat I'm still here," Trini said, she was stalling for time while frantically racking her brain for an excuse to come up with.
(I know this must be difficult for you, what with being Kimberly's best friend and all. But it's in both our best interests that we get this sorted now)
Damn that aussie. Sometimes she was just too damn nice for her own good. With a sigh Trini decided to tell Kat where she'd trapped Kim. "She's handcuffed to the toilet in Rocky's bathroom."
(What?) to say the least Kat sounded a little surprised.
"It's a long story, the door should still be open, the keys hanging on the bathroom door," there was a long silence on the other end of the line."
(O…k, thanks Trini)
The call ended Trini tossed the phone back onto the dash, she glanced somberly out of the window, "I'm sorry Kim."
---------------------------------------
"Okay I've got another one," Adam said, Kimberly rolled her eyes. He'd been telling her jokes for the past half an hour and although some of them had been funny the majority had not.
"Shoot," the pink ranger said, she was actually glad that Adam was providing a distraction to the fact that her butt had gone to sleep and her wrists were killing thanks to the metal cuffs.
"What's red and yellow and looks good on hippies?"
"I don't know."
"Fire," the black ranger smiled deviously.
"Adam!" Kimberly scolded, he was positive that if she wasn't chained to the toilet then she would've swatted him one, damn that Rocky. They'd been sitting there for over an hour and a half and Adam was fast approaching the end of his jokes list, plus his nose was itching like hell.
"So what now?" the pink ranger asked while tossing her hair over her shoulder and away from her face.
Adam shrugged, "Well I'm out of ideas."
"I'm really sorry Adam, since I've started living with you, your life has become a living hell; first I hit you in the face with a china sculpture, and now this," Kimberly noticed that the black ranger held a grin on his face, "What?"
"Well it hasn't all been bad," Kimberly's eyebrows furrowed in confusion, "There was that time you flashed me."
"I did not flash you," Kimberly tried to kick the laughing Adam but he was too far away.
There was the distinct sound of the front door opening and Adam's and Kim's eyes met, they waited a moment before both yelling at the top of their lungs, "HELP!"
The sounds of footsteps could be heard and a few moments later the door opened, Kimberly's eyes went wide when she saw who it was and Adam didn't look too pleased either.
Tommy stared at the two of them before asking, "What the hell happened to you two?"
