Note: Hey again people, I'm honestly trying to make my story chapters longer but it could take more time.. hopefully it's worth it!
And here's my timeline note again:
I'm not too sure about the time line here... for my sake though, say the Muiranthais was 1 year after 'the letter' and the 'letter' was 5 mo. after she moved to FL. Also, for my sake, please say that the space rangers time overlapped the late late morphin' phase... because time & me don't work well together and it would make my life SOOO much easier!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kim stood, morphed in her Ninjetti suit, looking up at the window as her companion continued to sleep in the shadows.
~If I could just get up there...~ She sighed in frustration, feeling how smooth the walls were.
{Why climb anyway when you can fly?} The Crane spoke to her.
~I never knew I had the ability to fly.~
{Ninjetti is your soul. It reaches into your full potential and beyond. Go for it!}
Kim concentrated for a moment, trying to feel herself flying. Picturing herself floating gracefully off the ground. Kim's eyes closed and she began to glow a faint pink, raising slowly off the cell floor. She opened her eyes and gasped.
~It worked!~
{Of course it worked child, I'm not a spirit guide for nothing.} Kim had to laugh at the Crane's response.
~What's your name anyway? You can't just be _the Crane._~ She asked as she kept ascending to toward the window.
{My given name is Ominotago.}
~Ominotago?~
{Yes, it's of the same language that your Native Americans speak. They learned from the ancient spirits long ago. Ominotago itself means 'beautiful voice.'}
~Wow...alright 'Min, let's see if we can get out this window then.~ She exclaimed hopefully.
She reached the crescent shaped window and looked through. The moon... when she was a child it was such a beautiful place, now that she new what lived here it was disturbing. Scanning the surface she saw nothing but desolate craters. Suddenly something caught her eye in a far crater.
"What could that be..?" She wondered out loud. She looked at the window, it was big enough for her to get out no problem.
"I'll just go see what that is." Kim smiled in satisfaction but her expression soon turned to shock. She merely thought about where she wanted to be, saw herself there, and in another small flash of pink- she WAS there.
Kim turned around to see the castle, even spying the window where she had just been. Spinning around again she spotted a red machine. She'd never seen something like this before..or had she? Kim almost found the answer in her head when she heard her name being shouted. Normally she wouldn't have heard that but with the Ninjetti powers everything felt enhanced somehow. The voice came again only louder and more panic stricken. Kim jumped in surprise and thought about the cell again. Arriving there instantaneously, Kim un-morphed and ran over to where her companion was kicking around wildly.
"Andros!" She held him down trying to calm him. "Andros please! Relax!"
"Kim! No, Kim don't! Where are you?!" He continued to toss and turn.
"I'm still right here." She soothed and Andros began to calm down though he was soaked with sweat. His eyes shot open.
"Kim! You're ok." He smiled though he was breathing heavily. She sighed in relief and smiled back.
"Yeah, I'm ok."
"What are you doing here?"
"I could ask you the same thing mister. What are you doing on the moon and just look at you! You're cut up, bruised, I think you have a fever..." She began to rant protectivly but faded off in confusion as Andros laughed. "What's so funny?"
No answer, just more laughing.
"Ok, now I KNOW you have a fever. Don't make me restrain you!" Kim held his shoulders down causing him to stop laughing and just smile at her.
"I was laughing because you sounded just like you did when we first met."
"Oh," she blushed, "So you still remember ALL of that, huh?"
"Of course I do.."

"DECA!" Cassie shouted in a worried tone as she and the others entered the deck of the Megaship.
"Yes Cassie?" The computer answered.
"We can't morph! Something's wrong." TJ stated. They heard beeping as DECA scanned something.
"Problem found Rangers. Your energy core is missing a piece and the incompletion has caught up with you."
"Where's the missing piece?" Ashly asked as fearful as the rest of her friends.
"The piece is on Earth..."
"Thank goodness," they heard Carlos mutter.
"It is in Florida. Picture uploading..." The screen dropped down revealing a rose made out of a rainbowed marble. "The piece was taken from the core in the shape of a rose, by whom is unknown."
"Then one of us will have to get it." TJ deduced. "But who?"
"I will." They turned to see where Andros had been standing silently the whole time.
"But you're new here Andros, how will you find your way?" Cassie shook her head.
"I can make it. I'll just make a scanner and follow it there. Billy can help even." He rationalized with the group for a while until they agreed.
**
"Thanks for the help Billy, this looks great." Andros smiled at his new friend.
"No problem. It's a good thing you had a sample energy reading of the core to work with." Billy clicked the on button of the hand-held device. It beeped and he saw the flashing light where the core piece was. Andros looked at his watch.
"Oh no, thanks for the help Billy but I have a plane to board." He began to gather some things.
"Plane? Why not teleport?"
"I thought it might be better for me to experiance Earth travel."
"If you say so, do you need a guide?"
"No." Andros replied defiantly, then his tone softened. "Really I'll be ok. Bye!"
**
"Ticket please?" The attendant asked politely. Andros pulled it out of his front pocket and handed it to her with a nervous smile. She laughed.
"First time flying?"
"~If you only knew~ He mused. "Something like that." He responded as she tore part of his ticket and handed him the rest.
"Alright, row 12 seat A. It's a window seat so just relax and enjoy the ride." She waved as he walked on the boarding ramp.
~I've flown the galaxy but I just don't trust _Earth_ technology for travelling!~ He justified his twisted stomach to himself. Andros started to feel a little warm even though he only wore a red t-shirt with a white strip in the middle with his black jeans. He stepped onto the plan and was greeted by another stewardess who looked at his ticket stub and pointed him a few rows back. Finally finding his row, he made his way past the person in the center seat but accidentally kicked their foot.
"Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to." Andros apologized quickly as he sank, embarrassed, into his chair. The person put down the magazine that had been hiding their face and smiled at him.
"It's ok, I should've moved my feet anyway. There's not much room to get through here." She extended her arm. "Kimberly Hart, nice to meet you."
~Where have I heard that name before?~ He thought absently as he shook her hand. "Andros..." he paused, then used the first name that came to mind. "Zordon, Andros Zordon. Sorry if I'm nervous, I've never been on an airplane before."
Kimberly stared at the device on his wrist during and after the handshake. He noticed this, covered it with his other hand uncomfortably and smiled.
~Zordon?! And that's Billy's handiwork if I ever saw it!~
She smiled back at him and leaned closer to whisper.
"New kid on the planet I see. Red?" She smirked knowingly. Andros turned to her in defensive shock.
"Wh-what are you talking about?" He half demanded.
Kim giggled. "Relax red ranger, I've heard a lot about you. It's good to finally meet you in person." The first bit was barely audible but he heard it anyway.
"How do you know? I mean, you'd have to-"
"Have been a ranger? First of Earth's pink line." Her eyes shone with pride.
"THAT'S where I recognized your name from. Zordon had updated me on his previous rangers. I remember hearing about you, but I thought you moved to Florida a while ago?"
"Three months ago for the Pan Globals. I was here visiting my friends for a week rangers as well, but with evil around so much it wasn't all the social vacation I'd hoped for. You guys helped out a lot though. They're lucky to have you." Kim folded the magazine that was in her lap and put it in the pocket in front of her.
Andros blushed. "Thanks, we try our best."
"I'm surprised I didn't run into you when I was hanging out with the gang.." She thought out loud.
"I'm not exactly a social person, Kimberly." He informed her as he toyed mindlessly with the tray in the seat in front of him.
"Call me Kim." She patted his arm, causing him to smile and nod in response. "And you should be more social with everyone. You're already shy I can tell, you don't need to be a hermit too."
They both laughed and Andros shook his head.
"No, not _that_ anti-social. I'm just not used to Earth."
Kim wose a serious expression now. "You, I'm sure it's got to be hard to adjust to. Why are you flying to Florida anyway?"
"I'm actually in search of something vital to the power core for the space morphers. I figured I'd fly to help myself get used to Earth a little more but I don't trust this craft after being on the Megaship for so long."
"Well I'd be happy to help. I still have a week off gymnastics practice." She was anxious to help save the world again, though she tried not to show it.
"I'd appreciate that. I wouldn't really know my way around."
"You do have a place to stay, right?" She asked in a concerned voice.
"Oh yes," he laughed. "Billy was insistent on making sure my reservations were flawless for the Clear Water Suites."
"Good ol' Billy.." Kim mused in a dreamy, flashback way. "He's so sweet. Did you need a ride there? My car is parked in the airport garage."
"Please?" Andros asked innocently making her laugh again.
"No problem." She replied as the captain make an announcement about the in-flight movie.
**
Kim and Andros had just pulled out of the parking garage. Each mulling in their own thoughts.
"I can't believe I made it through that airplane ride, it wasn't so bad." He smiled confidently.
"Think you'll make the one back with out me?" Kim joked.
"Ha ha, yes I think I'll be fine thank you." Andros said with amused sarcasm.
There was silence. Neither knew what to say to the other. They were strangers, yet they knew each other, or rather about each other. A little while longer passed and Kim turned into the hotel parking lot.
"Clear Water Suites, a nice choice if I do say so myself." She smiled as she so oftenly did.
"Thanks so much for the ride." He kissed her hand gentlemanly and grabbed his bag from the back seat. Kim blushed.
"No problem at all. I'll call you tomorrow and we can start hunting down this thing."
"Sounds good." The car door shut, but Kim didn't notice that he hadn't even touched it. They waved through the window and then she drove back towards her apartment by the gymnastics compound.

You all deserved an update.. this has been sitting on my computer for a while & I meant to write more but some is better than none I suppose.
Alright so I hope you enjoyed this little bit, where was the key those years ago? And what really happened between Andros and Kim? What does Zedd & Rita want with them? Will they escape?
Wow that's a lot of questions... I better get working on the answers as long as no one guess my ENTIRE plot.. though you probably guessed some. We'll see. And you'll learn the other rangers' spirit guides during this story. I'll probably use these Native American names in any other story I write with Ninjetti. Like Kim's?
Well, please review.. it'll tide me over until I get a new chapter of one of my stories up. lol DON'T KILL ME FALCONS ;) *hugs all* :)
And here's my timeline note again:
