OH my goss four reviews in one day!!!!! You love me you really uh... tolerate me!!!!!!! Okay sorry I'm tired and was on a roll with this chapter I hope to have another one up tomorrow and at least by Wednesday. Hope you all enjoy !!!!! Thank you to everyone who has reviewed so far! Man I hate doing these notes, usually but now I'm starting to like them. Oh I haven't done this in a while so I guess I should. I OWN NOTHING in this story at least. Well maybe just William but he is a real person who really acts the way I write him to me.


Trust him Kimberly... You can't keep these emotional walls up forever, why not let him be the one to help you pull them down? Kimberly stood there for a second. Tom's words still floating around in her head. Trust him Kimberly... Could she trust him was the thought that ran through her head. She trusted her mother and she lied to her her whole life. She trusted Kat too and once again she was lied to, even Zordon lied to her. That one hurt her the most the man she thought she could always turn to had lied to her as well. Okay maybe not lied, but he never told her what he knew till she found out and went to him for advice. She put her robe on and sat down in front of her vanity as the memories came flooding back.

~Flashback~

Kimberly how could you quit like that? Coach Schmit is practically handing you the gold mental in the olympics! Caroline yelled at her daughter.

Mom I won the gold at the Pan Global's that is all I wanted to do since I was five. I don't need to prove myself again, I'm happy and now I want to go to college. I can't be a gymnast forever I want something to fall back on. I think I found something I could love as much as I love gymnastics. Kimberly said as she continued to pack her suit case.

I knew it was a mistake to adopt you, but no your father wanted a child. He couldn't even stick around long enough to help me raise you. No he left me with you and your brother. Caroline said.

What do you mean I'm adopted? Kimberly asked in complete shock.

You heard me your adopted your real mother didn't want you, and I was crazy enough to take you in, but if this is the thanks I get then I'm starting to regret it.

Get out! Kimberly nearly screamed.

No, you are going to listen to me. You are going to continue your training and that is it!

Kimberly slammed her suit case shut, picking it up and walked out into the hall way. She went to the stairway and pulled out her old communicator from her pocket. She pressed the button and in a pink flash she was gone.

Zordon I'm sorry I know you told me not to use my communicator unless it was a emergency but I... Kimberly began the tears falling from her eyes as she sobbed harder than she had every before.

Alpha 5 put a comforting hand on Kimberly's shoulder and with his other hand took her suit case which she still held in her hand. She was shaking the words her mother said still cutting her the whole way through.

Zordon's voice boomed as he cut her off mid-sentence I knew this day would come Kimberly there is something I need to tell you.

Tommy called out for the forth time since he entered the room.

Oh Tommy I didn't hear you come in. Kimberly said softly as she stood up.

Yeah I kinda guessed that when you didn't answer the first few times I called your name. You looked really deep in thought... a painful thought. Tommy said the last part in almost a whisper tone.

Anything you want to talk about? Tommy asked

Kimberly was about to say no when Tom's words echoed in her head trust him...

Normally I would say no, but I think... Kimberly took a deep breath I think I would like to talk about it.

~Outside the room~

How did it go in there? Billy asked as Tommy shut the door behind him.

She loves him. Tom replied sadly as he started walked out of the trailer.

Tom I know it's hard not to fall in love with Kimberly trust me I know but... Jason started

Tom didn't need to hear this.

But it is better to have loved and lose than to never have loved at all, I know. I just have to smile for her sake. Tom said then left heading for his trailer.

As he entered his trailer he grabbed his cd, he was almost finished writing all the songs but one. Kimberly had helped him write them all but he just couldn't get the last song written. The melody was all worked out, but the words that was another thing. He wanted it to be from the heart something about how he felt. Kimberly offered to help him but he just wanted a few more day of heart searching before he took her up on her offer.

Heart, Hart, that's it. Well Kimberly it looks like you have helped me out again. He said as he picked up the picture of him and her of his desk.

He placed the cd in his player, placing the picture down he picked up his guitar. Pressing play he started to play his guitar as the music started. He stared at the picture he had his arms wrapped around her waist and she was leaning the back of her head on his right shoulder, her newly colored red hair flowed over his and her shoulders. Her left arm was up and rest on his left shoulder and her hand was tickling the back of his neck. They were both smiling, he began to sing as if he knew the words to the song his whole life.

I still remember the night we met
You said you loved my smile
Your love for me was like a summer breeze
Oh, it lasted for a while
I could hold on a little tighter I know
But when you love someone you gotta let 'em go so

Hi, my name is Tom. So you new here?

Yeah, is it that obvious? Kimberly asked shyly twirling her brown hair around.

No Raymond asked me to show you around. Tom said as he took Kimberly's hand in his and they started to walk around.

She looked up at him smiling. His green eyes meant her ice blue, he pushed some of his brownish red hair back. He couldn't help but smile it was like she put a spell over him.

You have a great smile. He said to her.

I love your smile too. Kimberly said shyly

I'm gonna smile
'Cause I want to make you happy
Laugh, so you can't see me cry
I'm gonna let you go in style
And even if it kills me
I'm gonna smile

A scene between him and her was just about to begin.

So are you ready for your first on stage kiss? Tom asked not so innocently. Taping his fingers together like a villain narrowing his eyes. Then he pretended to pull on a fake mustache.

I don't know. Kimberly said with a soft light hearted laugh.

Tom asked softly almost hoping she hadn't heard him. Would you maybe like to go out with me on a... well I don't know if I would call it a... I mean I know I have only known you a few months, but I was hoping... Tom couldn't seem to find the right words.

Kimberly leaned up and gave him a soft kiss on his lips.

Does that answer your question? She asked.

Just then everyone was called to there marks. The director kept yelling at Tom to get the goofy grin off his face. They had to do the scene 12 times before Tom could keep a straight face through the whole thing.

Kiss me once for the good times, baby
Kiss me twice for goodbye
You can't help how you don't feel
And it doesn't matter why
Give me a chance to bow out gracefully
'Cause that's how I want you to remember me

Kimberly and Tom were kissing outside her door when she pulled away.

Hey, whats wrong? Tom asked as he pushed some of her red hair behind her ear.

Kimberly answered.

Tom knew she was still hurting over Tommy. If he could just get his hands on him he would make him pay for hurting her so badly.

Kimberly we're friends right? Tom asked as he gave her a kiss on the cheek.

Kimberly nodded Best of friends.

I'm gonna smile
'Cause I want to make you happy
Laugh, so you can't see me cry
I'm gonna let you go in style
And even if it kills me
I'm gonna smile

Maybe it's better if we just stayed friends. The best of friends. Tom said as he tried his hardest to smile to smile for her.

Kimberly squealed with joy and jumped into his arms giving him a bear hug.

How did I get so lucky to have a great friend like you? I love you so much you are the greatest friend a girl could ask for. Kimberly let go and gave him a kiss on the lips and went into her apartment.

Yeah Best friends. Tom said as he walked down the hall to his place.

I'm gonna smile
So you can find the courage
Laugh, so you won't see me hurtin'
I'm gonna let you go in style
And even if it kills me
I'm gonna smile

There were many more memories like that but Tom had to get ready for the days filming.

Tommy you better love her and treat her right. Tom said to himself as he grabbed his costume, and went to change.

~Kimberly's trailer~

Tommy asked totally shocked.

Yeah if you don't mind me finishing getting ready as we talk. Kimberly said as grabbed her makeup box.

I thought you had people that did that? Tommy asked remembering it took over any hour to meet all the hair and makeup people.

Normally we do but when we are out of the studio we usually do it ourselves, then one or two people will touch up and fix any mistakes in the tribal symbols we make. Kimberly explained

So what's on your mind? Tommy asked as he sat on the chair beside the vanity.

Kimberly was about to say what she was thinking when Tom's words once again flooded her head. ...For once in your life listen to what someone other than me has to say, you might learn something new.

Why don't you tell me what you want to know. Kimberly finally decided to listen to Tom.

Was all Tommy said

Why what?

Why the change in looks, attitude, heck why Tom, William. Why New Zealand?

You got a few years for all of those answers? Kimberly asked

As long as I'm with you as their being answered, I have all the time in the world. I love you Kimberly I never stopped loving you. Tommy said as he leaned down for a kiss.

As they finally pulled apart Kimberly looked at the clock.

Oh crap! I'm so dead I have to be completely ready in 10 minutes. Kimberly said as she quickly started to do her hair and makeup.

As she was doing it she explained that she dated Tom because of how much he remind her of Tommy and Jason in one person. William she really couldn't explain she guessed it was just to prove that she was dateable. She told him everything her mother had said to her. Then came the hard part.

I can't believe your mother told you that way. It was so heartless. Tommy said as he put a reassuring hand on her shoulder.

Yeah. Then two days later as I was heading out I got your letter. Kimberly said as she started to put small feathers in her hair at the ends of her thin braids that were here and there through out her hair.

Talk about timing. So what happened after you found out? Billy said you traveled a lot. Tommy said.

Yeah I traveled, but I don't know how to tell you what I did for all that time. Your going to be mad. Plus I'm out of time I need to get outside. Kimberly said.

You can tell me where you went later when your ready, I mean the fact that your opening up like this to me. It means the world to me, but do you have time to answer one last question? Tommy asked as he placed on hand on Kimberly's cheek.

I might, it depends on the question.

You said you found your mother. What's she like? Tommy asked softly.

He could see the tears dancing in her eyes. She took a deep ragged breath.

Kimberly almost choked on her words. She horrible, she kidnapped, and murdered countless numbers of people and she enjoyed it all. Kimberly tried very hard not to cry.

Oh God. Beautiful I had no idea I'm so sorry. Tommy pulled her into his chest.

His forehead resting on hers. He looked down deep into her eyes, slowly their faces came closer and closer till finally they kissed.

Kimberly they need you out... Oh I'm so sorry. Tom said as he opened the door and saw the two kissing.

Kimberly and Tommy pulled apart.

It's okay Tom. Kimberly said then turned back to Tommy.

Tommy said as Kimberly started to walk out.

Tom noticed Kim wiping away a tear that she couldn't fight back. Tom stopped Tommy at the door.

You have a remarkable talent for making that girl cry, you know that. Tom said as he cut in front of Tommy and grabbed Kimberly's hand as they walked out to the filming area.

As they got there Kimberly saw all her friends there and Kat. Kimberly let go of Tom's hand and walked over to her friends as Tom walked over to William who was also in this scene.

Hey what are you guys doing here? Kimberly asked

Well we are here because Raymond wanted us to see William's last scene with the Tribe. Adam explained.

But this isn't suppose to be his last scene. Kimberly said in total shock

Well with your set out of the picture Raymond came up with a new idea to write me out. William said from behind Kimberly.

William I'm so sorr. Kimberly started

William's voice came out harsh at first but then changed to a very soft tone. These things happen.

EVERYONE TO THEIR MARK! The director yelled.

Good luck beautiful. Tommy said

Kimberly said as she start to take off her robe

Kimberly was wearing a short black top with two anime cats in school girl uniforms on it with the words Naughty Kittens on it. What shocked Tommy the most was that the top's back was a very, very see through black fabric the showed the back of Kimberly's pink bra. She had on soft pink pants which fit her well if you didn't know any better you could swear that they were sown onto her. They had D shape rings on three belt loops. Two in front on dead center on the back, it had 5 pockets two on her butt, one on her hip and knee on her right pant leg and one in-between the two on the other leg. The pockets had a shinny pink fold over them. Down below her knees where flaps on each side of both legs that held two D rings each which could be used for turning the pants in to calm diggers. Kimberly's shoes were plan black 60's looking 5 inch high heels. It took all of Tommy's self control to keep from starring.

Kimberly made her way to her mark William was about 5 feet behind her. Kimberly dug the heel of her shoe into the dirt, while putting little packs with glue on them on her nails.

Okay everyone please let's get this in one shot! The director yelled.

Why do they want it in one shot? Rocky asked

Because it dangerous for Kimberly. Tom replied on his way to his mark.

Why does she get all the dangerous scenes? Tommy asked.

QUIET IN BACKGROUND. COUNTING DOWN 5, 4, 3, 2, ACTION!

Kimberly took off running kicking out the dirt she had just dug up. She suddenly tripped and fell giving William the time to catch up with her. He yanked her off the ground.

NO LET GO! She screamed as she tried to fight William off as he held both of her arms tightly.

Your mine Star stop fighting Ram isn't here to protect you anymore. William hissed into her ear.

Kimberly was able to break one of her hands free she popped the blood packs that were on her nails. She gently scratch William's face the blood appeared on his face as if she really had cut him. William lifted his hand and stage hit Kimberly across the face causing her to fall into the stream that was right behind them. In the distance you could hear people yelling the name of Kimberly's character Star. William ran out of the scene the camera zoomed in and waited for Kimberly to reappear. After a few minutes she was still under the water.

This isn't right she should have come up by now. Tom said to himself.

Go in after her. The director said.

Tom in his all back jump suit with a silver, red, silver strip across the chest jumped in. He swam down and saw Kimberly fighting to get one of the D rings on her pants off a branch of a tree that sat at the bottom of the stream. Tom swam further down and grab Kimberly's leg and with one jerk from both of them freed her leg. Half way up Kimberly start to loss consciences. Tom grabbed her by the waist and brought her to the top. Gently he picked her up and ran onto the shore. Gingerly he placed her on the ground and turned her on her side and started to pat her back finally after a few seconds she started to cough up water. Tom finally realized that no one knew that this wasn't a part of the scene or a revamp of the scene.

Medic someone get a medic. She needs help! Tom finally yelled

The instant Adam heard this he and most of the former rangers were in a race to get to her first. Billy stopped Aisha and Rocky tried to stop Jason and Tommy but they dodged him easily.

Why are you stopping me? Aisha yelled as she tried to dodge Billy.

Cause she is going to need air and Adam might need room to work. Rocky explained.

Kat just stayed where she was watching the scene unfold no emotions showed on her face.
