DISCLAIMER: I own nothing, they own everything.
A Child for Us All - 2
Tommy stood in the Power Chamber with Kimberley next to him and the rest of the team behind him. He reasoned with himself that Zordon most likely knew of Kimberley's condition but somehow that made Tommy feel worse, rather than better.
"Um Zordon... I have something to tell, uh inform you about." Tommy was trying his best to sound mature as possible, but that was becoming a hard task when somewhere through his statement he had fallen back to mumbling like a nervous teenager (which he was).
"GO AHEAD TOMMY, YOU KNOW THAT YOU CAN CONFINE IN ME" The long-haired teen jumped at the volume of his mentor's voice and so Zordon adjusted it to a more comfortable level.
Kimberley shot a glance at her boyfriend/lover and decided to give the news herself, if Tommy continued in this way they would be there forever. "Zordon, I'm pregnant with Tommy's child" The statement was delivered as bluntly as it could be.
The ancient mage and mentor was slightly taken back by the bluntness of Kimberley's words. Alpha could only splutter in excitement and overload in the background.
"THIS IS ...WONDERFUL NEWS KIMBERLEY AND TOMMY. CONGRATULATIONS." Zordon was pleased that "his children" had taken their love for each other one step further. There was a fleeting thought towards lack of protection in that love, something Zordon was sure their parents had already addressed.
"But Zordon, what will we do about the team?" Tommy asked, slightly light headed at how well Zordon was taking this news.
"TOMMY, I THINK YOU SHOULD SIT DOWN." Zordon advised, looking at the pale teen. A chair appeared from one of the back chambers and Tommy gratefully sat down. "YOU WILL BE ABLE TO PARTICIPATE IN THE TEAM FOR AS LONG AS YOU WANT TOMMY, KIMBERLEY AS WELL. WHEN YOU ARE MORPHED KIMBERLEY, THE MORPHING GRID WILL PROTECT YOUR CHILD AND YOU WILL APPEAR AS NORMAL IN YOUR UNIFORM/ARMOUR. BUT I DO UNDERSTAND THAT YOU WILL WANT TO TAKE LEAVE FROM THE TEAM SO I WILL LEAVE IT TO YOU TO CHOOSE YOUR TEMP. REPLACEMENTS."
Tommy was unable, like any father-to-be, to say anything intelligent at that moment and so Kimberley once again did the honours.
"Thank you Zordon, I would like to still help the Rangers for as long as possible, and so will Tommy, I guess, but I will find someone to help you guys once the baby is born. But we both want to remain with the team, our absence will only be for the short term"
"KIMBERLEY, DON'T BE SO SURE THAT YOU WILL ONLY HAVE ONE CHILD" Zordon advised her.
"But Zordon, there are no histories of multiple births in either Tommy's or my families." Kimberley informed him; sure that she was only going to have one child.
The rest of the Ranger team had been quiet during the whole exchange... except for Billy they had no idea that Kimberley was pregnant. The silence was not going to last for much longer, Aisha was already beaming like a full set of floodlights.
"KIMBERLEY, THROUGH OUT THE HISTORY OF THE POWER, ANY FEMALE KNOWN TO HAVE HELD THE POWER AND GIVEN BIRTH HAVE INDEED HAD A MULTIPLE BIRTH REGARDLESS OF THEIR HISTORY. THE POWER INCREASES THE CHANCES FOR REASONS UNKNOWN TO US, HOWEVER I FEEL IT IS THE POWER PROTECTING ITSELF FROM EXTINCTION." Zordon informed her.
"Oh my god, you're going to have twins!" Aisha could not longer stay quiet; she rushed to her friend's side and caught her in a fierce hug.
"Wow" Kimberley breathed, "Aisha, you are going to break my ribs if you are not careful!"
Aisha loosened up a bit and started making plans with Kimberley about baby shopping.
Meanwhile, all the male rangers had gathered around Tommy, who had regained his sensors, and were uttering the manly comments that were expected in this sort of situation.
Zordon and Alpha looked upon their team of Rangers and drank the happy atmosphere. Out of all the Ranger teams that Zordon had guided, the current team had him most captivated and intrigued.
Tommy's head was spinning; it was bad enough that he knew he was going to have one child, but two? *How on earth am I going to afford this? * His male team-mates were gathered around him, patting him on the back and congratulating him but not one of their words were heard. Billy noticed his mental distress and tried to soothe him. *Don't worry Tommy, it'll all work out in the end. * Tommy looked into Billy's eyes. *That's easy for you to say you aren't on the receiving end of this! * Tommy's thought was almost sobbed.
Looking at Tommy, Zordon decided the leader of the Power Rangers had had enough for one day. Clearing his throat, he dismissed them all. "Try and get some rest Tommy, I wish to speak to you tomorrow" The mage added. Tommy's face was startled and panicked as they teleported out to the park.
Tommy's first words out of his mouth as the teleportation beam faded were "Zordon's gonna kill me tomorrow!" Kimberley shook her head impatiently. "Now why would he do that Tommy, he's happy for us. Don't be so paranoid." Looking around while she was reassuring her boyfriend she noticed some familiar figures running towards them. "Um guys, we have some unwanted company coming!"
The rangers turned as the putties raced towards them. "Kimberley, get out of her now!" Tommy yelled. Everyone was startled at the intensity of his or her leader's voice. "I mean it Kim! - Zordon, could you teleport Kim home please?" The answer was given as Kimberley disappeared in a stream of pink light.
"Let's mince these clay brains, I'm starving!" Groans' of 'Rocky!' could be heard as the ranger's joined battle with the putty patrol.
"Okay clay brains, let's get this over with!" Tommy round-housed two putties with force, one of them disappeared. An axe kick destroyed the second one. Billy joined with his leader and they both began to tag team, an exercise that worked well with the two, since their thoughts were often as one.
A group of putties had corned Aisha and Adam, trying to fluster them both with a flurry of hands and legs. "Aisha, up on my shoulders!" Adam called, boosting her up with his arm. The yellow ranger was then able to flip out of the entrapment, kicking two putties in the chest destroying those. Adam knocked out a putty with a hammer fist and another with a swift knee to the chest. Suddenly the remaining putties disappeared.
"Whoa, what was that all about?" Aisha was still hyped up from the battle, one fist raised just in case.
"I don't know, but I thing we should high tail it out of here, before Zedd decides to interrupt my lunch further!" Rocky said demorphing and looking expectantly at the rest of the team.
"All right guys, I'm going to check on Kim - catch you later." With a parting wave Tommy split from the rest of the rangers and headed over to Kimberley's house.
Billy watched his leader *more like brother* walk from the battle scene. "Um guys, I'm going to head home. I have a project that is near completion" Copying Tommy he broke from the group.
As Billy walked, his thoughts drifted back to when he became a telepath, and Tommy's mind became irreversibly linked with his.
AUTHOR'S NOTE:
Thanks all to the great reviews you've all given me, the things you've liked or commented on have been really helpful. Sorry this chapter is short, but because of your reviews I'm adding a flashback chapter on what happened between Lord Zedd, Tommy and Billy. Also to answer a few more comments, I know that Kim and Tommy won't normally get with child, due to how responsible they both are but in my story they are both normal teenagers (yes with awesome duties) that are quiet capable of making mistakes. And I didn't mean to pass off Billy and Tommy's relationship as m/m. Think of very close brothers, Billy paying the other part. Thanks again for the reviews, keep them coming in and I'll start working on the flash back chapter.
