A/N For future reference Ninjor never gave them the power. I hated the fact that they did the movie and then changed it for the TV show. They didn't do it to the second, which sucked. Me no likie Justin, don't know why I just don't. So later on in the story when they talk about the animal spirits it will be referring to the events in the movie. Oh and also the second movie never happened. Rocky didn't hurt his back he simply went to college and Justin, well Justin only knew about them he was never a ranger. Also I'm so not happy with the way this chapter came out. I'm sorry I tried rewriting it 8 time well more like 20 but after changing a few sentence I came back to what your about to read. Also I don't like the song I was thinking about use Britney Spear's song Every time (which I'll more than likely use in the next chapter, I think it fits this story so well.) but it didn't fit either. So I hope you like if you don't please tell me what you think I should do to change this chapter, before I resort to slamming my head against the computer screen. Anyway I hope you do like it and I'm just being my own worst critic, but please let me know. Oh ONE more thing my computer is acting up every time I try to up load this the end gets bolded and the spacing is non-excitant. So Sorry for that and yes I know it's there... Well hopefully it won't be but if it is still there I'm sorry.

Now what? Adam finally asked while breaking the hug.

I find a nice big rock to hide under till everything goes away and I'm no longer emotional deficient. Kimberly said as if it was the sanest thing to do.

Hey sarcasm, a perfectly normal emotional response. Adam teased.

Sarcasm is not an emotion. Kimberly stated matter-of-factly.

You're right for you it's a way of life. Kimberly just rolled her eyes at Adam.

Seriously though what now? he asked again.

Adam it's the same as it's always been for me. You guys go on with life as if everything is how it's been nothing has changed. As for me, I deal with what I need to deal with, and tell people what they need to know when and if they need to know it.

You can't live life hiding like this we're your friends no matter what. Besides Zordon wouldn't want... Adam started.

Zordon is the one that kept it from me only to tell me the truth in my weakest hour. Then in a heart beat he was gone, leaving me scared and confused. He swore me to secrecy, and as you can see I'm failing miserably at it. Kimberly said turning so she was once again looking out her window and her back facing Adam.

I'm sure Zordon wouldn't want you to keep it a secrete, not from us. Plus he knew like the rest of us you are strong enough to get through anything without becoming jaded. Kimberly you are the strongest person I know, you were the one that kept the team together. Once you left the team was never the same. Adam said as he place a comforting hand on Kimberly's shoulder

Adam laughed softly to himself.

Besides Zordon always told us to follow our hearts. Adam turned Kimberly to face him.

Remember your heart can tell no lies. Adam said softly

Yeah but this Hart can. Kimberly said coldly.

Maybe colder than she meant it to come out but she knew she got her point through to Adam.

Okay that's it I give up. Adam said throwing his hands in the air in mock defeat.

Good I knew you would see it my way. Kimberly's mood instantly changed and Adam couldn't help but mentally kick himself for falling for her little act.

Adam opened his mouth to talk but Kimberly was already half way out the door.

Mean While

Jason had spent the last ten minutes trying to convince Tommy he was wrong about Kimberly. He used every argument he could think of, Kimberly hated war, she was on earth, Trini would have told Adam if Kim was there. Kimberly would have been with Trini till the funeral. But all of them were quickly dismissed by Tommy. Jason was about to give up when he remembered something about the Altarian Warrior.

Tommy please! Kimberly was a great ranger but there is no way that she could be the Altarian Warrior. That girl was suppose to be better with a sword than you and me combined, plus she was part Altarian, Kimberly is human. Jason said while casually flipping through a magazine.

Yeah but Power Rangers have been mistaken for Altarians before. Tommy argued back.

May I suggest when you two decide to reminisce about the good old days when you were power rangers. That you might want to lock the door or anyone can just walk in. Danny said as he entered the room a huge box in hand.

Would one of you big bad rangers mind helping me with this it's really heavy. Danny asked.

What are you talking about we're not power rangers. Jason quickly said as he helped Danny put the box on the coffee table.

Well duh! Danny started

Both Tommy and Jason breathed a sigh of relief thinking he thought they were joking.

Of course your not power rangers now or you would be downtown fighting that moth monster. You gave up your powers about 2 maybe 3 years ago.

Listen we were never power rangers! Tommy tried to lie

Tommy what the heck are you talking about of course... Rocky started as he entered the room.

Then he saw Danny and tried to quickly recover.

we never were power rangers. The others followed in and looked confused and slightly scared.

See not power rangers. Tommy said dumbfoundedly at how Danny could have put it all together so fast.

Oliver you know you're parp at lying so don't try. Kimberly giggled as she came into the room Adam not far behind.

She gave Tommy a quick kiss on the cheek before heading to the kitchen for a drink.

Anyone need a drink? she called over her shoulder.

Yes please. Danny and Billy called back at the same time.

Kimberly came back into the room with a tray that had cans of pop on it.

First off what does parp mean? Could you please speak American? Tommy asked

Crap. You'll get use to the language soon Kimberly caught on really fast for an American. Now we can't get her to stop it's great she's turning into one of us. Danny answered with a smug smile.

Second Kimberly you told him about us being rangers! Tommy practically yelled as he jumped out of his chair.

No of course not! Kimberly sounded extremely offended at the thought of them thinking she would just tell someone about them.

He knew before I even got here. When I got here he told me he knew, that's why we're so close. Him and Tom are the closest friends I have down here next to Meryl. But Danny is the only one who knows about us being rangers. Kimberly said cheerfully.

Kimberly could see the confused look on her friends faces.

Danny is from KO39, not to mention he is Andros and Karone's cousin. Plus a close friend to Zhane. Kimberly further explained while she placed a hand on Danny's shoulder.

A silent oh' could be seen coming from all the rangers in the room except Billy. Danny did his best princess wave to them.

Rocky couldn't help but laugh. The Kimberly he knew was never into mind games, but now she seemed rather good at them.

That explains a little bit. Adam joked.

Sorry if I freaked you guys out. Danny said

No your not. Kimberly said as she took a seat on the arm of the chair Tommy was getting ready to sit back down in.

So what's in that box? Kimberly's newest supply of make up? Tommy asked

Tommy let out as Kimberly threw her weight onto his lap, as she slide down from the arm of the chair.

Smart ass. She said with a content look on her face.

No some party supplies and a special ordered item for Kimberly. Danny answered.

Eek!!! It came, just in time!!!! Kimberly squealed.

She instantly jumped off of Tommy's lap and ran for the box. She opened the box up and pulled out a fairly big single tray jewelry box.

Man, Kim I so didn't miss those ear splitting squeals. Rocky said with a laugh

Tommy asked rubbing his left ear which was the closest to Kimberly when she squealed.

Kim shot him a warning look.

Okay guys in this box contains a gift for all of you. Don't ask me how, why or when just trust me when I say that I knew this day would come and I wanted to be prepared. Kimberly said as she opened the box.

As the box was opened it revealed two black, red, pink, and one blue, yellow, and white, jeweled silver wrist bands. In the center above two jeweled buttons were the old power coins looking like new. Jason, and Zack's were the only ones with the original power coins. Everyone else had there spirit animal coins.

Aisha started to ask.

I said don't ask. They are fully operational we can keep in contact, teleport, and a new feature I added we can track each other. Kimberly said as she handed each ranger their communicator.

The buttons are the same the old ones. But if you press the one on the top, a map shows up. Kimberly pressed the button on hers and a small grind appeared above the communicator.

As you can see the grid isn't that big since all the communicators are in one area but when we move apart the grind gets bigger. There's a program that can be load on a computer that will give a better map than this one and also allows you to narrow your search to a certain ranger. Kimberly explained

These are so amazing. Billy you did a great job. Aisha started.

Hey I had nothing to do with these. It was all Kimberly. Bill said looking over his new communicator carefully.

Kim you did all of this? How? Jason asked as he rubbed his finger slowly over his old power coin.

I've learned a lot over the years. Let's just leave it at that. I have one for Kat too, but it didn't seem right giving her my first coin or the crane coin since it was my spirit animal. So I got a piece of her Zeo crystal for her.

Kim that's really sweet but I don't... Tommy started

She still a ranger no matter what. Kimberly stated firmly while taking off her old communicator and placing the new one in it's place.

They others did the same the placed the old one in there pockets, Kimberly set hers in the box and locked it. She then walked over to the other box and picked it up with ease. Jason went to help her, when she turned her shoulder to him. Which effectively stopped him from grabbing the box.

Kim that is way to heavy for you to carry let me carry it. Jason said trying to grab the box.

I'm stronger than I look. Kimberly said leaving the room box in hand.

Where are you going? Tommy asked getting up to go after her.

To set up for the party you guys coming or am I going to have to do this all by myself? Kimberly asked as she stepped out of the door.

Once down stairs they were in the large gym again that they were in the day before. Kimberly had explained that William had to move his plans to leave for the States up because he was written off the show earlier than they thought he would be and that they were throwing him a goodbye party.

Hey girl, thought you would never show up. Meryl said as she handed a box to Danny.

Tell them what needs to be done and they'll help. Kimberly said as she set down the box she was carrying.

Need some help? Tommy asked as he walked up behind her.

Yeah could you grab the ladder over there. Just go ahead and pull it out from under Caleb.

Caleb yelled as he climbed off the ladder.

I'm done with it anyway. Caleb said as he pulled his long black hair into a ponytail.

Thank you Caleb. Kimberly said sweetly as she kissed his cheek quickly.

Caleb blushed slightly under the red hot glare that was coming from Tommy.

Where do you want this? Tommy asked picking up the ladder.

Over in that corner. Kimberly pointed.

Man I thought I was going to die. Caleb said once Tommy was out of ear shot.

Kim just gave him a questioning look.

He's very protective of you, you know that. Right?

Caleb how could he be we just showed up in each others lives again. There is so much he doesn't know about me.

Kim that doesn't matter. He's totally into you.

You're wrong. Heck when he walked back in to my world I was still with William. I'm amazed he is even giving me the time of day... Kimberly started.

Excuse me. I'm looking for a Kimberly Hart. A guy with a baseball cap and sun glass on said

That's me. Kimberly said noticing all of the male rangers making their way to her.

Great I have two deliverers for you. I left the one outside your apartment door. As specified on the order, but this one has to be sign for. The guy said removing his sunglasses then motioning to the huge crate behind him.

Kimberly said

He handed her a clip board as another man helped him unload a piano on to the stage that was on the other end of the gymnasium. Kim gave all the guys around her a annoyed look and soon all of them were back to helping getting the room decorated.

There you go. Kimberly said once they finished setting it up and handing the board back to him.

Thank you, have a good day. The man tipped his hat and both men left.

Meryl said as she ran her hand along the piano.

Kim why don't you test it out. Danny suggested.

I can't not here, not now... not with... Kimberly started

Danny put his finger to her lips.

Shh. Just sit down if something comes out it comes out. If not no harm no foul.

Kimberly sat in front of the piano. She started to run her hands on the keys, soon she was playing a soft melody. Kimberly seemed to be in a trance the words just came out as did the melody.

When you walked into my world
I was someone else's girl

... Everyone this is William my boyfriend. Kimberly said

He gave Kimberly a kiss and took her hand leading her down stairs.

Every time you look in my eyes
All that I felt somehow dies

No no no no
Can't you see what you're doing to me
No no no no

Don't look at me with that smile
Don't act like every thing's fine
Stop putting dreams in my head

Come on. It's time to take you home. Tommy said as he picked up the weakened pink ranger

Exhausted, he carefully lowers Kimberly onto the grass as she starts to stir.

It's okay, you're home now. Let me put you down. He said softly his worried expression hidden by his white helmet.

Revived slightly, Kimberly begins to sit up. The White Ranger hastily interjects before she can, his voice coming in short, weary bursts.

No. N-n-no. Don't get up. You rest now. You had a hard enough time. His voice is serious yet gently.

She knew then and there he was her white knight and that they would live happily ever after.

When I should've thought of him instead

When you say the things you do
It makes me want to be with you

Hey. Didn't you hear the lady? Tommy said curtly to Bulk and Skull who were once again harassing Kimberly

Bulk and Skull regard Tommy with contempt.

She said no. He directed his voice to Bulk, yet kept his gaze on Skull

Bulk and Skull stumbled away from the two. A smiling Tommy turned to face her.

Thanks. That was really great. Kimberly said as she tuck a piece of hair behind her ear.

Sure ... I'll see you later. He starts to walk away

she called out not sure as to what she was going to say next.

Um, I'm Kimberly. You're new around here, aren't you? She mentally yelled at herself for such asking such a stupid question.

Yeah. I'm Tommy. He said as they shook hands.

She say back breathily.

He say in the same tone.

And every time that he kisses me
You are always what I see

No no no no
You make me forget about him
No no no no

William I sorry I can't do this not now. Kimberly said as she gently pushed William away from her.

Slightly put off and annoyed he stood up and looked down at her.

Then when, come on Kim you have to get over him eventually. William said his voice calm but his eyes burned with hate for her unseen yet always there ex-boyfriend.

You don't get over one guy, by getting under another. Kimberly said as her eyes stayed glued to a the night stand beside her bed. She barely registered that William had said something and then stormed out of her room.

Don't look at me with that smile
Don't act like every thing's fine
Stop putting dreams in my head
When I should've thought of him instead

No no no no
Can't you see what you're doing to me
No no no no

The Power Rangers were walking towards the stage, accompanied by applause and cheers of an admiring crowd. As they walked by each stop to silently recognize their friend who's powers were stripped from him, by Rita. As each shook his hand they gave him a knowing nodded. They then continue their way to the stage as to not arise any question as to why he was so special.

The Pink ranger was reluctant to let go and join her fellow team mates on the stage.

Go this is your day, beautiful. A hidden smile graced her lips and with one last look at each other she joined her team mate on stage.

She could see him clamping with a smile that made her want to jump in his arms and never leave his loving embrace, that she had missed so much.

Don't look at me with that smile
Don't act like every thing's fine
Stop putting dreams in my head
When I should've thought of him instead

With William finally push out of her head and heart all she could feel was Tommy's love for her. All of the memories she just recalled were as fresh as when she lived them. Although many times when she was with William she lived them over and over again. She couldn't escape them and now she welcomed them with open arms. She stood up and finally noticed that once again the entire room was clamping for her. Tommy's eyes shined with pride as he watched her. Carefully she left the piano before she knew it she found herself in Tommy's arms. He held her close as if scared that if he let her go she would disappear.

I love you beautiful. Tommy whispered in her ear.

Kimberly could feel a single tear escape her eye as she heard those words. They were as pure and stronger than the first time she heard them.
