Chapter 6: The Rescue

Kimberly held onto her head in pain, as she woke up. However, when she was wide awake, the painful memories came back into her head. "Not again," she whimpered.

(Flashback)

Kimberly walked over to Tommy, who was working out on one of the weight machines. "Tommy, Tommy I know," she informed. Tommy looked at her with a slight glare. "I know you're the Green Ranger," she murmured quietly. Tommy slammed the weights down.

"Well then Pink Ranger. You should also know that you and the other Power Rangers will soon be destroyed," he informed.

"Let us help you, we can break Rita's spell."

"Rita is my empress, she will soon rule the world."

Kimberly grabbed onto his arm with a last bit of hope hanging by a thread. "Tommy, please let us help you," she begged. Tommy pulled his arm out of her grasp.

"You have been warned," he snapped quietly as his eyes glowed green.

(The Animarium)

Cole watched as Hannah walked over to Kylie, who was sitting at the table with her head on her hands. "Hey, sweetie, remember when that mean man, Ransik, kidnapped mom?" She asked.

"Uh huh," Kylie replied.

"Mom escaped Ransik and his goons. I'm sure she can escape Master Org," Hannah assured her.

"What if that mean Master Org doesn't let mommy escape?"

Hannah sighed as she pulled Kylie into a hug. "Hunter, Blake, and I will take care of you. Don't you worry," Hannah assured her. Kylie shook her head.

"I want mommy," Kylie whimpered.

"We know and I promise you we'll get your mom back," Cole put in.

Kylie walked out of Hannah's embrace and walked over to Cole. Cole picked Kylie up and hugged her. "I promise you, we'll get your mom back," Cole assured the young girl. Taylor then hurried over to them.

"Cole, we have to go, an org's attacking the city," she informed.

"Okay, Kylie, stay here with your sister," Cole instructed.

Cole set Kylie on the ground and the young girl ran over to Hannah as the Wild Force Rangers went down to the city to fight the org, and to save Kimberly at the same time.

Kimberly was lying on her back and was looking up at the ceiling. However, the pain hit her once again.

(Flashback)

"NO!" Tommy yelled.

Kimberly watched as the pit came closer and then she felt a familiar rush of evil pulsing through her veins. She opened her eyes. They were red. She was lifted out of the pit and she looked over at the Rangers with an evil glare. "Kim!" Tommy gasped. Kimberly grinned evilly as she went to attack the Power Rangers while Jason broke the chains and helped her out of the pit his eyes also glowing red.

"Kimberly, stop," Kat insisted.

Kimberly started fighting Kat with an evil grin on her face. She spun around to see Tommy standing there. "Kimberly, you've got to stop this," he insisted. He removed his helmet and the pain stung Kimberly's heart more. The man that believed the lies in a letter. "Kimberly, you have to remember me, it's me, Tommy," he insisted. She heard Kat telling her to remember and she started laughing. She laughed at them all. "Kimberly, we're your friends," he insisted. Kimberly looked at him straight in the face and laughed.

"Sweetie, I don't have any friends," she informed.

"Kimberly, you do have friends, you have to remember," Kat insisted.

Kimberly looked over at Kat before looking back at Tommy. "Oh, and sweetie, pink is out," she informed. She spun around and kicked Kat in the stomach. She watched the Pink Turbo Ranger fall and walked past Tommy.

"Please, Kimberly, snap out of this, please," he begged.

"I'm evil and I like it that way," she laughed.

She then started fighting Tommy herself and he was blocking her attacks. "Kim, please, I don't want to hurt you," he insisted.

"You already did," her mind hissed.

She finally kicked Tommy in the stomach and looked over to see Jason still in the pit. "KIM SNAP OUT OF IT!" Adam shouted. Kimberly ignored them all. She was going to destroy the Red Ranger on her own. However, she watched as Jason dragged Tommy towards the pit trying to push him in.

"You are a pathetic being," she hissed.

"You know that's not true," Tommy demanded.

"It doesn't matter. Say goodbye, Red Ranger."

(After the Karate Tournament)

Kimberly nodded and just as she was about to tell him, her heart shattered. Tommy was hugging Kat and they both seemed happy. Tears welled up in her eyes. Jason could see the pain in her face. He knew that Kat and Tommy went on a couple of dates, but he didn't think was serious. Seeing the image before him just showed him that it was. "I----I---I can't do this," she whispered.

"KIM WAIT!" Jason called.

Kimberly ran out of the auditorium in tears. She was too late. Tommy was gone and she couldn't get him back.

She went back into the Power Chamber and cried into her pillow. Jason came in and placed his hand on her shoulder. "I'm so sorry, Kim," he murmured. She didn't answer him.

"Did you know?" She asked.

"I knew they went on a couple of dates, but that was it."

She sat up and looked at him. "I swear to you on my grandmother's grave that I didn't know that their relationship was serious, Kim," he assured her. Tears fell down her face.

(End Flashback)

Kimberly held onto her head and curled up in a ball. Master Org grabbed Kimberly by her arms. "You'll be my bait to get the Rangers," he laughed. Kimberly didn't even have the strength to fight Master Org.

(In the City)

Cole looked over and saw Master Org carrying Kimberly into a cave. "COLE! GET KIM!" Alyssa shouted.

"WE'LL TAKE CARE OF HIM!" Taylor shouted.

Cole nodded and ran towards the cave.

Kimberly gasped when Cole came in. "Kim!" Cole gasped. He ran over to her.

"Cole don't," she whispered.

"What are you talking about?"

"Get…out…please."

"Kim, I'm not…"

Cole was then blasted off his feet. "COLE!" She screamed. Master Org glared at Kimberly and Kimberly held her head in pain.

"She's dying, Red Ranger. Her strength is just about gone," Master Org laughed.

"Leave her alone," Cole snapped.

Master Org aimed his staff at Cole when the rest of the Rangers came. "Kim!" Taylor gasped. Kimberly fell limp and Master Org laughed.

"You're too late," Master Org laughed.

"POWER OF THUNDER!"

Master Org was thrown off his feet and the Rangers watched as Hunter and Blake ran over to Kimberly. Master Org got up and glared at the two boys. "I'll be back, you can be sure of that," he snapped. Then he disappeared. The Rangers ran over to Hunter and Blake.

"Is she okay?" Taylor asked.

"She's really cold and her pulse is weak. We have to get her back to the Animarium," Blake replied.

"Wait a second, who are you?" Max asked.

"Hunter and Blake Hart," Hunter replied.

"We don't have time for chit-chat we have to get Kim back," Cole instructed.

Cole walked over and picked Kimberly up. Then all seven of them went back to the Animarium.

When they arrived back at the Animarium, Cole placed her on the table and placed the blanket over her. "Princess Shayla, can you help her?" Alyssa asked.

"I can try," Princess Shayla replied.

Princess Shayla walked over and placed her hands on Kimberly's head to see if that could help.

"This is bad, Hunter, mom's never been this weak before," Blake pointed out.

"I have an idea," Hannah informed.

"What are you doing?" Hunter asked.

"I'm calling Billy," Hannah replied.
