Chapter 21: Defeat Part I

Kimberly sighed as she helped Princess Shayla set things up for the party. "It's hard to believe that our time here is almost over," Kimberly commented. Princess Shayla nodded in agreement.

"It is hard to believe that it seemed like yesterday that Taylor rescued you from that org," Princess Shayla agreed.

Kimberly smiled as she remembered that.

(Flashback)

In a couple of hours, she stopped at a nice city called "Turtle Cove" she got out of her car and looked around. It was a nice place, especially for her to straighten things out in her head. She liked Lucas, he made her happy and everything, but if she fell in love with Lucas, it might ruin her and Kylie's future. Kimberly started walking through the park as she tried to think. Her mind was filled with so many thoughts. And yet she couldn't get them into order. "What am I going to do?" She asked quietly. Suddenly, she had a bad feeling that something was behind her. Kimberly looked over her shoulder and saw what looked like a monster. "Oh great! Like I really need this now," she groaned. When the monster came to attack her, Kimberly jumped over the monster's head and started fighting it. However, as Kimberly fought, the monster was getting stronger and stronger. Kimberly was then thrown back and she hit her head.

"STOP RIGHT THERE!" A voice shouted.

Kimberly opened her eyes and she saw what looked like a Yellow Ranger and then she fell unconscious.

Kimberly woke up with a small groan. She sat up and held her head and felt a bandage on her head. "Welcome," a voice greeted. She looked over and saw a beautiful woman standing there.

She had brown hair that was a few inches past her shoulders, brown eyes, she was wearing white shoes, a white flowing dress, a golden necklace with a blue sapphire in the middle, and on her head was crown of flowers.

Kimberly held her head. "Who are you?" She asked.

"I am Princess Shayla. My Yellow Ranger, Taylor, rescued you from an org," Shayla informed.

Kimberly sighed and then the girl Shayla told her was named, Taylor, came in.

She had blonde hair that was three inches past her shoulders, blue eyes, she was wearing black shoes, black pants, a yellow blouse, and a yellow jacket.

"How are you feeling?" Taylor asked. Kimberly held her head.

"I'm feeling better, thanks," Kimberly replied.

She slowly got up. "How long have I been out?" She asked. Taylor stepped forward.

"You were unconscious for about a week," Taylor replied.

Kimberly gasped and jumped off the table. "I have to go back," she insisted. Taylor looked over at Princess Shayla, who nodded, and then Taylor took Kimberly back down to the park.

(End Flashback)

Kimberly smiled and looked over at her daughters. "I don't have the heart to move them again. I'm tired of moving my girls around," she commented. Princess Shayla placed a hand on her shoulder.

"Here's an idea, Kimberly. How about you go to Blue Bay Harbor and be with your sons. I'm sure they miss you," she suggested.

Kimberly nodded. "I think that's a good idea," Kimberly agreed. She sat down with a sigh. "I miss my boys. I mean yeah I get their letters about how much they love the ninja academy and their visits, but that's not enough sometimes," she added.

"I think that's what every parent feels," Princess Shayla agreed.

"Yeah, I mean, look at your sister, I'm sure she'd give anything for her kids," Taylor commented.

"Ryan's also only two-years-old and Trini is only a few months old," Kimberly pointed out.

"You know what I mean," Taylor told her.

Kimberly nodded. "I just can't move my girls around like this anymore I don't think. Kylie's six and I think it's high time we settle down somewhere," Kimberly commented. Taylor nodded and sat across from her.

"Picture!" Alyssa announced.

Kimberly laughed as she called her daughters over. They all put on their funny hats and posed for the picture. Cole picked Kylie up and set her on his shoulders. "Everyone say cheese," Alyssa announced.

"Cheese," they answered in unison.

The picture was taken and Kimberly took Kylie into her arms with a smile on her face. "Hannah, Kylie, I have an announcement to make," Kimberly informed. They looked at their mother. "Once Master Org is destroyed, we'll be moving to Blue Bay Harbor to be near Hunter and Blake," she informed.

"YAY!" The girls shouted.

Kylie nearly jumped out of her mother's arms with excitement. However, the fountain shot water out. They ran over to the fountain. "Master Org!" Hannah gasped.

"Rangers, you ready for one more?" Kimberly asked.

"You know it," Cole replied.

Kimberly nodded and set Kylie on the ground. "WILD ACCESS!" The Rangers shouted. Kimberly looked at Hannah.

"Stay with your sister," she instructed.

Hannah nodded and Kimberly left the Animarium with the Rangers.

When they came down from the Animarium, Kimberly felt sick to her stomach when she saw Master Org. "Ew, gross," she groaned.

"Let's go guys," Cole stated.

"Right," they agreed.

Animus appears and they try to defeat Master Org together. Kimberly did a series of front flips and tries to aim for Master Org's chest, but Master Org grabbed Kimberly's arm and threw her to the ground. She held her shoulder in pain and stood up. "You won't defeat me this time," she hissed. Master Org laughed and then he grabbed Kimberly by her throat.

"KIM!" The Rangers shouted.

Princess Shayla then came to them. "Rangers, come with me," she instructed. The Rangers went with Princess Shayla.

"Kimberly, come on," Taylor urged.

"I'm not coming," Kimberly replied.

"What?" Alyssa asked.

"I'm going to stay here as long as I can to fight him off," Kimberly replied.

Merrick nodded in agreement. "I'm staying too," he answered. Princess Shayla took the Rangers to safety while Kimberly kept fighting. Merrick grabbed her hand. "Kimberly, we have to get to the Animarium," he told her.

"Right," Kimberly answered.

Kimberly gasped when Merrick was thrown to the ground before they could escape. "MERRICK!" She shouted. She ran over to her fallen friend and looked at his morpher. "Your morpher!" She gasped. She picked up the broken growl phone. She then helped Merrick off the ground and they went back to the Animarium with Animus.

Kylie and Hannah looked up when Kimberly came back with an injured Merrick and Animus. "Mom!" Hannah gasped. She ran over and helped Kimberly sit Merrick down.

"I'm sorry that I couldn't help you defeat Master Org," Animus apologized and disappeared.

Kimberly then felt the anger hit her hard. She hit the groud in pain. "MOM!" Hannah and Kylie shouted.

"KIM!" Merrick shouted.

Kimberly held her head in pain. "He's close, Merrick, I can feel him, he's close," she whispered. Kylie then let out a blood curling scream. Kimberly looked over her shoulder and quickly pushed the pain aside to stand in front of her girls. The Rangers stood in a guarding stance to see Master Org on the Animarium.

"I will have my revenge," he snapped.

Kimberly was thrown back against a rock. Hannah and Kylie ran over to their mother and Kimberly watched in horror as the rest of the zords were destroyed. "NO!" She screamed.

"OUR ZORDS!" Cole shouted.

Kimberly stood up and looked at Hannah and Kylie. The ground shook and Kimberly held onto her girls when the Animarium was tipped and it started to fall. "WILD ACCESS!" The Ranger shouted. However, nothing happened.

"What's happening?" Kimberly asked.

"Our powers, they're gone," Danny replied.
