Chapter 2: Protecting his Family

Almost another year passed and now Mesogog had another plan appearing in his mind. "I will have another person on my team. I will get these powers. I can only get them from one person. The only way I can is getting the Pink Ranger," he pondered. He turned on his computer and the first person to appear was Kimberly picking Josh up and swinging him around. "She is a very strong Power Ranger, her powers could get me the rest of the Dino gems," he added. He then had an idea of getting the Pink Ranger to his lair. He then looked at the dinodrones. "Bring me the Pink Ranger. I'll bring reinforcements if her friends come to save her. Go," he ordered. He sent the dinodrones away and he was going to watch the capture of the Pink Ranger in amusement.

Kimberly was walking towards practice when she met up with Tommy, who was on his way to pick Ann up from school, Rebecca up from preschool, and Josh up from Ms. Oliver's house. "Hey, baby," she greeted. They shared a quick kiss and Tommy held onto her hand.

"I'll see you at home?" He questioned.

"Of course."

"I'll see you when you get home."

They shared another kiss and Tommy left to get home while Kimberly went to get to the school. However, dinodrones surrounded her. "TOMMY!" She yelled. She tried to fight them off while waiting for her husband. She then knew she had to morph. "DINO THUNDER! POWER UP!" She yelled. She morphed and began fighting. However, a dinodrone grabbed her and they surrounded her. "TOMMY!" She called. She saw Tommy coming to get her before they took her through portal.

When they came through the portal, Kimberly had de-morphed as they dragged her away. Mesogog turned to see his prisoner and had them put in the same place he had Tommy put in when he captured him. "What do you want with me?" She demanded.

"I am going to get you to have your Black Ranger and his companions to hand over the Dino gems," he replied.

"How are you going to do that? They'll never hand over their powers to you," she snapped.

"Don't be so sure."

She gasped as the mutant pointed a tool at her to drain her energy. "I'll be able to do this so I can get your beloved to give up and have them hand over your Dino Gems,' he insisted. She tried to fight back as the tool began to drain her energy.

Tommy came home and threw everything to floor. The kids ran upstairs and Tommy removed the carrier that held Josh and put him into his playpen.

He went downstairs to practice some of his karate moves. Just then, Hayley came down when Tommy's anger took over him and he picked up a vase. He tossed it across the room and it shattered on the wall next to Hayley's head. "WHOA! Watch it, Tommy," she cautioned. Tommy fell to the ground with his hands on the sides of his head. "Tommy, what happened?" She asked.

"For once you don't know. Mesogog kidnapped Kimberly," he replied.

Hayley placed a hand on his shoulder and he looked at him in tears. "I'll kill him, Hayley, I'll kill him with my bare hands," he snapped. She kneeled in front of him.

"You can save her, Tommy. You are a Power Ranger," she assured.

"I know I am, Hayley," he snapped.

He stood up with his back turned towards her. Just then, Connor, Ethan, Kira and Trent ran down to him. "Dr. O, we just heard," Kira stated.

"You're too late, Kimberly's gone," he snapped.

"We have to rescue her," Ethan insisted.

"OF COURSE WE DO!" He roared.

They were surprised to see Tommy lose his cool that way. Tommy finally got ready to morph. "DINO THUNDER! POWER UP!" He yelled. Everyone looked at each other and nodded.

"DINO THUNDER! POWER UP! HA!" They yelled.

Once they morphed, they hurried out of the lab to save Kimberly.

Once they got to a portal place, dinodrones came. Before they could do anything, they came to Mesogog's lair. They had de-morphed and were led away towards the lab.

Mesogog stopped torturing Kimberly and looked over to see his prisoners before him. "Kimberly!" Tommy gasped. Kimberly weakly looked at Tommy.

"Tommy," she whispered.

"What did you do to her?" he demanded.

"I did a simple task of taking some of her energy. If you don't cooperate, I will finish her off," Mesogog replied.

Kimberly looked at him weakly. "Please, Tommy, don't listen to him," she whispered. Mesogog gave her a deadly glare to hush her.

"I will set your beloved free, Black Ranger, if you do as I say. The only way she could be free is you handing your power gems to me," he ordered.

"Don't do it," Kimberly begged.

Mesogog walked over and wrapped his hand around her throat. "You will be quiet, Pink Ranger," he snapped. Kimberly glared at him, but she was too weak to do anything else.

"I don't have to do anything," she hissed.

Tommy had enough and began to struggle against the dinodrones. "LET HER GO! JUST LET HER GO!" Tommy shouted. Mesogog walked over and grabbed Tommy by the front of his shirt.

"Do you want her freed, Black Ranger?" He asked.

"Of course I want her to be freed," Tommy replied.

"Then hand over the Dino gems and I'll make sure I won't harm her ever again."

Tommy looked at Kimberly, to see her trying to tell him not to do it. "If you won't do it for your wife and lover, I will send more dinodrones and have them get your children," he threatened.

"You won't dare touch our children," Tommy snapped.

"I can do whatever I want."

A screen came down and then the children appeared on the screen. Ann and Rebecca were playing in the backyard while Josh was sitting in his playpen. Mesogog then had the screen go closer on Ann. "I think I'll leave the two young ones alone, but the oldest child would be perfect," he pondered. Tommy finally threw the dinodrones off him and got ready to morph.

"DINO THUNDER! POWER UP!" He yelled.

He then stood in front of Mesogog. "Dr. O," Connor hinted. He then knocked the dinodrones off them and waited for them to be morphed.

"DINO THUNDER! POWER UP! HA!" They yelled.

Then they began to fight Mesogog's dinodrones and Tommy ran over to Kimberly, freeing her from her binds. "Tommy, I can't move," she whispered. He picked her up and looked at his teammates.

"GET OUT OF HERE!" He yelled.

They ran out of the room and Tommy was able to kick Mesogog across the room so he couldn't capture them again.

As they ran down the hall, they stopped when Kimberly begged them to. "Tommy, please, he took my Dino gem," she whispered. Tommy's eyes widened and he looked at Trent.

"Here, take her. I have something to do," he ordered.

"Tommy," she whispered.

He removed his helmet and touched her face. "If I don't make it back, make sure the kids know that I love them," he whispered. She returned his touch and they shared a kiss.

"Please come home," she whispered.

He looked at Trent and sent them away. Tommy spun around and ran down the hall.

Mesogog was watching as the rest of the Power Rangers left. He turned to see the Pink Dino Gem sitting on the table. Just then, Tommy broke in. "You have something that belongs to my wife," Tommy snapped. He saw the Dino gem and ran to it. Just as he was about to grab it, dinodrones surrounded it. He closed his eyes and sighed. "Fine, you asked for it," he sneered. He began to fight them and then he flipped over the table grabbed the Dino gem.

"STOP HIM YOU FOOLS! HE HAS THE GEM!" He roared.

When he went to the door, Elsa stood there. "I thought we defeated you," he groaned. Elsa grinned and the dinodrones grabbed him. "I don't think so," he remarked. He flung the dinodrone over his shoulder and threw it at Elsa. "See you guys later," he commented. He ran off with his wife's Dino gem in his hand.
