Kimberly found herself unable to eat at lunch. Trini brought her tray and sat beside her.
"Hey, girl."
"Hey."
"You seem off in lala land, what's up?"
"I met him."
"Him?"
"Tommy."
"The guy Jase fought yesterday?" Kim nodded with a huge smile. "OOooooohh, details, details."
"He meeting me after school."
"Dang, girl! You sure work fast!"
"All of us silly! At the Youth Center."
"Cool."
"I hope so. God, he looked so good this morning, Trini."
"Well, tell me more."
"Well, Bulk and Skull were being their usual, creepy stupid selves, anyways, Tommy comes and..." Kimberly told Trini all about the way he frightened Bulk and Skull, leaving Bulk stuttering the whole morning in fear of running into him again.
"Wow, he's a hero." Kim laughed.
"God, I'm so nervous about seeing him again," Kimberly said as she put her fork down.
"Why?"
"I don't know, something about him. His eyes. God, his eyes were magic."
"Magic, huh?" Trini nudged her.
"Don't pick on me."
"I'm not! Drool is sweet." Trini went to wipe Kim's chin, but Kimberly pulled back.
"I'm not drooling!" Kimberly hitTrini's shoulder hard. Trini laughed, though rubbed the spot.
"Ow,ow! Meanie! Besides, you are clearly crushing big time and hard!"
"I am not! I barely know the guy! I can't have a crush on him yet!"
"I see it, Kimberly. You like him!" She teased, pointing at her. Kimberly shoved her hands away.
"No! I couldn't. No way... I mean, he's cute, he's very cute and...maybe, no...could I...maybe I do like him."
"Ah ha! Gotcha to admit it."
"You tricked me!" Trini laughed. "Hush! The boys are coming!"
"What's so funny, Trini?" Jason asked taking a seat.
"Nothing."
"Okay." Trini and Kimberly looked at each other and bursted into tears of laughter. Zack looked at Jason.
"You get this?" Jason asked.
"I don't understand girls, remember I still can't get Angela to pay me any attention. But I think I have found a way to maybe convince her to give me a date."
"Convince her, Zack? You shouldn't have to convince her, she should want to."
"In due time, Kimberly. In due time." Kim shrugged with the rest. Billy arrived and finally they ate lunch together, routine that has come natural since becoming rangers.

After school, Kimberly stood waiting on Tommy, checking her watch often.
Meanwhile, Tommy was on his way to the Youth Center to meet up with Kimberly. 'I hope I'm not too late! I really got to work on my time!' Tommy thought as he rushed down the alleyway about a few blocks from the Youth Center. 'God, she felt so familiar? So pretty too. I hope she is still there!' Tommy was suddenly surrounded by putties. Though there were 5 of them and just him, they were defeated with ease.
"Man, why me! Oh, man, Kimberly, I better hurry." He picked up his bookbag and the wind around him picked up.
Rita stood on the top of the roof.
"Tommy! You have been chosen to be my NEW GREEN RANGER!"
"NO!" Tommy cried out as she hit him with her staff. Rita took Tommy back to the moon to make him into her evil green ranger.

Trini came over to Kimberly finally. Kim sighed of frustration.
"Maybe, he forgot."
"Can we just go?" Kimberly picked her up bookbag and walked out. Trini could tell she was upset and royally pissed, so she didn't push her best friend, especiallya Kimberly in one of these moods.

On the moon, Tommy fought Rita's spell as he was in a cocoon of green mist and strings of web. He struggled as the web consumed him. It was getting tight, it felt cold. It felt evil
'No, let me go! Why am I here! What did I do! Someone...someone help me...' His mind cried out.
Rita stood over his body saying her spell. Flashes filled his mind.
"Good work Tommy!" Sensei said. Tommy stood proudly as his black belt was handed over.
"Tommy, I just got this great pamphlet for a summer camp." Tommy's mother said to him as she poured him a bowl of cereal. "Maybe you would like it. It would give you a chance to meet some people from this area."
>
"Tommy, your father has gotten his new assignments. We'll be moving to Seattle, so you're going to have to come home."
"But, I just got here, and second session is starting soon."
"I'm sorry, baby. I promise I'll make it up to you in Seattle." A young Tommy sighed and hung up his phone. He went to practice some karate after passing a young Jason and Zack.
>
"Breathe! Breathe!" Tommy shook the young girl he pulled from the water. 'Why did I scare her like that! She has to breathe or I won't ever forgive myself!' A young Tommy smiled as the girl started coughing up water. "Good! Just breathe, stay with me. Just stay with me." He smiled down at her, rubbing her face. 'She's cute' he thought. "Just stay with me."
>
"Hi, I'm Kimberly." Tommy smiled as he introduced himself to her. When their hands touched, he felt a spark of electricity. Her eyes, her beautiful eyes. 'Where do I know those eyes from?'
"KIMBERLY!" Tommy's head screamed as the cocoon finally consumed him with evil.
"Rise my evil green ranger!" Tommy sat up on the table.
"What would you have me to do, my empress?"
"As my ranger, you can now enter the Command Center. I want to go to the Command Center and disable Zordon, leaving the rangers helpless without their precious leader Zordon, and you can destroy them. Jason the red ranger, Zack, the black ranger, Trini the yellow ranger, Billy the blue ranger and Kimberly the pink ranger. Now, prepare to receive the 6th power coin and become my green ranger!" Tommy hands raised up as the power coin appeared.
"As you wish."
"NOW MORPH!" Tommy smiled and morphed.
"To the fall of Zordon and the destruction of the power ranger, my empress!"
"You know what to do, now go!"
"Your wish is my command, my empress."
At the Command center, Zordon made Alpha 5 go recharge. Tommy, morphed, comes into the Command Center. He places a disk into Alpha 5, rendering him useless and incoherent.
"HOW IT THAT YOU HAVE ENTERED THIS FORTRESS UNDETECTED. ONLY THOSE CARRYING A POWER COIN MAY ENTER!"
"I have the coin and the power. And nothing you can do will stop me!"
"SO RITA HAS FINALLY CHOSEN SOMEONE TO GIVE IT TO."
"So correct, Zordon. I am her green ranger, and she is my queen."
"TOMMY, SHE HAS YOU UNDER AN EVIL SPELL. LET ME HELP YOU!"
"NO! You should worry about saving yourself!" Tommy started pulling out lines and tearing up the Command Center.
"NO! NO YOU MUST NOT DO THIS! ALPHA! ALPHA 5, WAKE UP! NO! TOMMY! NO! YOU MUST NOT DO THIS! ALPHA, YOU MUST CONTACT THE RANGERS...TOMMY YOU DON'T WHAT YOU'RE DOING. REMEMBER, REMEMBER YOURSELF, REMEMBER KIM..."

The boys, Jason, Zack and Billy, were working on the Rad Bug, Billy's flying car.
"Man, I have never seen the Rad Bug this clean!"
"Oh, it's going to be stylish after Zack's wax!"
"Zack's wax?" Jason threw his rag at Zack. Zack threw his at him.
"Here come the beautiful ladies!" Kimberly and Trini arrived to Billy's garage.
"Hey, guys," Trini said.
"Come on, grab a rag and help us wax."
"I'm not in the mood. No thank you." She handed the cloth back to Zack.
"What's wrong?" Zack asked.
"Nothing."
"It's Tommy."
"Trini!" Kim looked at her. Zack smiled.
"That guy I fought at the competition?"
"He was suppose to meet me at the Youth Center, but he never showed up."
"Maybe something came up."
"Yea, I guess."
All of the sudden, their communicators went off.
"PO...rangers! Rangers!"
"Alpha? Alpha, come in, you're breaking up!"
"Communicators are malfunctional. Teleportation is down," Billy said trying to fix it.
"Guys, something is serious wrong, I feel it," Trini said.
"How do we get to the Command Center?"
"The Rad Bug."
"It's the only way to fly," Zack said. They all got into the car. Billy flew them out to the Command Center. They found the place in destruction and Alpha 5 stumbling around with a virus. Zordon was gone. Alpha was saved when Billy pulled out the CD. On screen, they saw Goldar, giant size. The rangers morphed into battle. When the rangers went into battle zord mood, to fight Goldar, a green ranger appeared and proceeded to kick their butts and toss them out from their Megazord.

Kimberly found herself standing alone by the lake. After the rangers were defeated by their new foe, the Green ranger, they went back to the Command center. Billy and Trini tried to work on fixing Alpha 5, believe he would be the only one able to bring back Zordon. Eventually, everyone, but Billy left for home.
Rita sent Tommy back to Earth to remain until she calls him again. Jason and Zack went to the Youth Center to do some karate. Jason really just wanted to pound the punching bag. Kimberly couldn't go home right away. Too much on her mind. Her lasting images were off the green ranger inside the viewing globe laughing at them. His evil laughter at them, the seriously scaring one, that sends chills up the spine.
"To the fall of the Power Rangers. I'll destroy you, one and all!" His laughter rang in her head as Kimberly walked around the park.

"The doctors weren't able to save him, Kimberly."
"But why?" Kimberly sat on the couch as her mother tried to explain that her coach was dead.
"His injuries were severe."
"It's all my fault."
"No, baby!"
"I asked him to come. If he hadn't.."
"Kim, it's not your fault."
"Yes, it is!" Kimberly jumped up and ran out the house.
Kimberly covered her eyes as she sat up, trying to catch her breath. She looked up and around the park. She had fallen asleep, somehow. The sun was just setting in the distance. Kimberly knew she had to get home soon or have her parents fighting over her about missing curfew and the way she always gets her. Kimberly couldn't go through that, not after a day like this. Flashes were coming a little more frequently about her coach and it was starting to worry her. Kim's mother always told her that her coach was her angel now and wouldbe always watching over her. Kimberly gasped as she thought she saw Tommy.
"Tommy? Tommy!" She jumped up and rushed to him. Tommy continued walking away. Kimberly ran and turned the corner and found no one there. Kimberly looked around but it was empty. "God, I must be losing it." She turned around and jumped back gasping. The Green Ranger appeared before her. She stood in her fighting stance.
"Ready for round 2?"
"Bring it on." Kimberly pulled out her morpher. "It's morphing time! PTERODACTYL!" Pink and Green ranger walked around each other. "Who are you?"
"Like I would tell you."
"Why are you here?"
"To destroy you."
"Why! We are the good guys in this, join us!"
"My empress commands me. All I do is to please her!" Green ranger attacked her. Though not nearly the experience fighter, Kimberly held her own at first. She blocked many of his punches and kicks. She eventually got sweep kicked to the ground and demorphed. She held her hand up in defense. Kimberly was breathing hard. Inside the green ranger, Tommy had flashes of Kimberly. Her smile, the softness of her hand against his hand. The way her eyes shined back at him. Eyes that he knew, eyes that has filled his dreams for a long time. Green ranger, he was on his knees, one of his hands, pressing Kim's arm to the ground, as her other hand tried to hold him back as Green Ranger raised his fist at her. Green Ranger shook his head. "Until next time, Pink Ranger." His helmet came down to her level. He laughed as his helmet touched her cheek and she flinched. He released her and disappeared. Kimberly gasped and sat up. She looked around, still breathing hard.
"Who are you?"
