Authors notes: Hey again. Okay, the reason I haven't updated in awhile is because my computer crashed Ahh! Yeah, I just got it working again, albeit a little unstablally. So, heres the next chapter of The Prophecies. I had to write this in Wordpad, as I can't get me Microsoft Word to work yet, so I had to spell check by eye and any mistakes that I made that you can spot, you can Review and yell at me about them :) So here it is, Chapter Four:


From the Prophecies of the stars

When all the stars are in great need,
A Being of true and pure light will awaken
Usual colors, unusual shape- but take heed,
This being will bring peace to the forsaken,

A One needs a Two,
For two offers strength and love,
Guardians of light are few,
But together they rise above.


"This, I'm afraid, you must answer for yourself." Dulcea answered. "And now I will leave you to think. I will be back in two days, your time, for an answer. Meditate well on this, Young Crane, for it is a responsibility not many would ask for." And with a shimmer, she was gone....

"So, I thought about it day and night; and when Dulcea returned I accepted her offer." Kim finished her story to the, once again surprised looks of her friends. "I…severed all ties that held me here as requested," Kim looked at anything but Tommy when she said this and he in turn had no expression on his face. "Then began my training on Phaedos."

"So, you've been chosen to save the universe." Billy said in an awed voice.

"Believe me, no one was more shocked then I was." Kim replied with a rueful smile. "I mean, if any of us I always thought…" Kim trained off and the others followed her gaze as it landed on Tommy. He smiled in return, shaking his head.

"So you've just finished your training?" he asked.

"Yeah. I'm a lean mean fightin' machine." A dark look crossed her face. "But I still don't see how…" she shook her head. "But I'm not supposed to think that, Dulcea says thinking of solutions to problems that we see as impossible only limits the mind." Kim finished sounding doubtful.

"But, if no one is supposed to know about this, why are you aloud to tell us?" Adam asked.

"Because, in the Prophecies it is also written that the One, that would be me, finds, or chooses, a friend to help share the burden. My first thought was one of you, but I thought that was too hasty, too obvious, so I meditated on it and I kept coming back to the same thought, to come home. So here I am." Kim paused to smile. "I told you it was a long story."

"So- wait. You're saying your going to choose one of us to help you save the universe?" Aisha asked.

"No, no. I couldn't force anyone to help me. I'm just here to… look around I guess. " Kim paused, thinking. "If one of you turns out to be the Two, that's what their referred to in the Prophecies, then I could only present the situation and let you decide. It would mean going through the same training I went through, which is no picnic I could tell you. It means living in secret, never having a normal life; No job, no family. Leaving the Power Rangers, but now that you all know about it we could be called upon if you needed help. It's a big commitment and one you'd have to think about." Kim explained and was greeted with silence, as everyone was lost in thought.

"How will you know which one of us it is?" Tommy asked.

"Oh, that's simple enough. Just a little test." Kim replied.

"We can see now, if you'd like." She offered, rising easily to her feet. Her friends rose as well and stood uncertainly.

"Don't worry." She said with a smile. "This is the easy part. Gather around and join hands." She instructed, holding her hands out for Aisha and Adam, who were nearest to her, to hold.

As soon as they were all joined, Kim closed her eyes in concentration. Following her, the teens closed theirs as well and in a minute Kim was blasted with the feeling of all their powers connected. She took a deep breath to calm herself, and then mentally plunged into the center of the circle they made. She unconsciously grasped Aisha and Adams hands, trying to keep the Power from sweeping her away.

"Are you okay?" Aisha asked without opening her eyes.

"So much power." Kim gasped. "It's just… hard to deal with. Give me a moment." She replied and took another deep breath. It was like jumping into a giant whirlpool of heat. Not enough to burn her, but enough to make her uncomfortable. Not only that, but the whirlpool was made up of six different kinds of water and she had to find the right one. Hers was easy enough to see. It was connected to the others, but not as much. The other five interchanged so much that there was no way she could separate them enough to follow a single one back to its owner.

"Don't fight it so much. Let it take you where it wants to." Zordon vioce came to her as is from far off and, trained to follow her masters instustions without hesitation,she did as he said.

She sighed once more, this time in relief. Zordon had been right. As soon as she let go and let the current take her where it wanted to, sort to speak, she glided easily. The closer she got to the owner of the thread she held, the more defined it became. At first it was a swirl of white, red, yellow, black, blue and pink. Then slowly the other colors receded and it, when it finally reached its owner it was a pure and almost blinding white.

Kim nodded, not surprised that the one distended to save, not just the world, but the universe was Tommy. She took another deep breath, let the power thread slip through her hands and took hold of her own thread for the trip back. Halfway there, however, and she was grabbed by another strand. Curious, she followed it back to Aisha. Puzzled, she gave a mental shrug and tried again to return to her body, but she was intercepted again, this time by Billy.

"I don't understand." She murmured aloud. This happened two more times, until she was lead to each of her friend's sources.

When she finally made it to her body without being interrupted, she fell into it, exhausted. The only thing that saved her from falling was Aisha and Adam, who still held her hands and grabbed her when they felt her pull.

"Kim!" Aisha exclaimed, when she and Adam broke the circle to help her into a sitting position.

"Are you alright?" Tommy asked hovering over her.

"Water." Was all Kim could croak.

He was back in an instant with a bottle he took from his backpack.

"I thought you said this was supposed to be easy." He scolded when she had downed the bottle and color was coming back to her cheeks.

"I stayed longer than I planned." She explained apologetically.

"What do you mean 'stayed'?" Billy asked. Kim explained what she had done and, roughly, how.

"Wow. That's intense." Rocky said.

"Tell me about it." Kim replied.

"So…what did you find out?" Adam asked.

"Well… That's the weird thing." Kim said, her brows furred in thought. "The first thread I grabbed onto lead me back to Tommy's. But then, on my way back, Aisha grabbed a hold of me and led me back to her. Then Billy, then Rocky, and the Adam." She explained.

"What does that mean?" Tommy asked.

"It could be any of you." Kim shrugged.
