" Good job, Rangers," Zordon's voice boomed across the command center. The five teenagers looked up at the tube where their mentor was. " now the city of Angel Grove is safe, thanks to you, Power Rangers,"
" It's our job, Zordon," Jason said sincerely, exchanged glances with his other teammates.
" That's right," Trini agreed, receiving a slight nod from Billy. " though it's one hell of a monster we got today," Zedd had sent yet another big, ugly and disgusting monster and it had occupied the rangers almost all day. But as usual, in the end the heroes always won.
" At last the Angel Grove citizens can indulge themselves in a nice trick and treat," the genius in blue said. His hands were busy cleaning his glasses with his shirt.
" Talking about trick and treat, aren't we supposed to be in Ernie's right now?" Kim asked, eyeing her watch. Just like an annualy tradition, Ernie, being such a nice person, always held a big party to celebrate the event. It's on the house so it's no wonder if almost all teenagers from Angel Grove high were there.
" We are, but I don't think we have time to change into our costumes," Zack said almost desperately. He had prepared a perfect outfit for the evening and had dreamt about dancing with Angela all night. Thanks to Zedd, it was just a dream.
" I'm sure Angela won't mind," Tommy said, as if he could read his friend's mind.
" Well, I don't know about you guys, but I'm beat," Trini said a bit bashfully. " I think I'll just skip it,"
" Guys, this is once in a year event! You mustn't not come!" Zack said reasonably. " come on,"
" Yeah, Trini," Kim pouted at her long time best friend. " come on, it'll be fun,"
" I'm sure it will," Billy said from his place. " but I'm afraid I have to miss it as well. My mother is away for this conference in town and Dad is all alone by himself. I've been gone since morning and he probably has been wondering where I am,"
" Not you too," Zack sighed hard, shaking his head. Billy and Trini smiled apologetically.
" So, it's just the four of us," Jason confirmed, knowing that once Trini and Billy made up their mind, it would be that way till the end. " alright… are you really sure you're not coming?" he looked at them with a funny look. It's just not in their nature to back out from such an occasion like this.
" Affirmative,"
" Yup,"
" Well, in that case… you know where to find us if you need anything," Tommy said, moving closer to Kim.
" Okay, good night everybody," the blue ranger looked up and smiled at Zordon. " night Zordon and Alpha as well,"
" Good night Billy, Trini," Alpha 5 replied.
" Good night," their mentor said with a fatherly tone.
" Bye guys," Kim grinned at Trini who cocked her eyebrows innocently.
" Have fun," Trini smiled and lifted her hand. The two of them teleported out in a streak of blue and yellow light.
" So," Zack rubbed his hands in excitement. " ready for party, guys?"
" Wow, it's so crowded in here," Kim shouted, defeating the loud music.
" This is so awesome!" Jason said cheerfully, his eyes swept through the room. Werewolves, vampires, mummies and all kind of monsters were swarming over every inch of the juice bar. " well, if you two don't mind, I'll just excuse myself," he grinned and walked away, leaving Tommy and Kimberly looking at each other.
" I never thought that Jason is a party guy," Tommy said, quite stunned by the red ranger's enthusiasm. Zack was the man, but Jason?
" Oh, this is nothing," Kim answered, pulling a strand of hair off her face. " there's still many thing that could surprise you,"
" Oh yeah? Like what?" Tommy asked while Kim started walking through the crowd. He kept himself one step behind her.
" Do you know that Jason was into cooking?" Kim knew that Tommy didn't know about this one and Jason would probably kill her for blurting it out. But she just couldn't help it!
" Into what?" Tommy thought that the loud music had done some tricks with his ears. Did he hear it right? Coz he just heard Kim saying that Jason was into cooking. Jason? Cooking? He tried to stifle a chuckle.
" Cooking," Kim repeated once again, stopping when she found a space for them near the bar. She turned her head to him. " it's an old hobby. In fact, he often made us lunch when we were in the elementary school,"
Tommy shook his head in disbelief, still trying to digest the information he just received. His mouth formed a wide grin. " Jason was into cooking. It's nothing wrong with it, even my dad loves it. It's just, it's hard to picture him like that. In front of a stove, wearing an apron…," he broke into a set of laughters. " sorry,"
" Just don't tell him I'm the one who's telling you that," Kim's eyes shining brightly. " he could be a little oversensitive,"
" Promise,"
" We surely look misplace," Kim said, pointing at her clothes. Jason, Tommy and Kim had decided to come without changing into costumes while Zack insisted that there's no way he showed up without it. That's why he's running a little bit late.
" Misplace?" Tommy raised his eyebrows, his eyes twinkled with mirth.
" What?" his smile only grew wider. " what do you have in mind, mister?"
" Wait here," Kim's confusion just grew higher when Tommy left her with a knowing and secretive smile. She tapped her feet impatiently, trying to find where her boyfriend went. Out of the blue, she felt something slipped on her head and automaticaly her hand flew to her head. It's touching something that wasn't there when she came here earlier. Her hand traced a long wire that ended with a round and furry thing. An angel halo.
" Like it?" She swirled around quickly to find Tommy standing tall behind her, his face was full of satisfaction. Kim was about to comment when her eyes slowly headed higher and saw two little red horns peeking from Tommy's head. A devil's horns.
Kim tried to control herself but failed terribly. His slightly pompous smile combined with those cute, little horns… She snorted and couldn't stop laughing for about 30 seconds straight. All the while Tommy looked like a red prawn. He began to think that it's a bad idea. The worst in fact. He was about to take off the hairband from his head when Kim's hand stopped him.
" No, don't," she said, clearly restraining her laugh from breaking once more time. She grabbed his hand and gave it a squeeze. " I love it," Even though devil's horns were all over the place, seeing Tommy wore that was just.. hilarious.
Tommy's eyes softened and he himself chuckled, still rather uncertain if Kim really wasn't thinking silly about him. " So, you love it,"
" Yeah, I love it, Tommy. That's really sweet," she smiled until her cheeks hurt. " where'd you get it?" she lifted her hand and touched the furry circle.
" Just say it's a premonition," he said, shrugging his sholder. " I had this really weird dream last night, when I saw Zedd actually send a monster when we're-,"
" Okay, okay, okay. I get it," Kim cut him off, smiling at his attempt. " you're so clever, Mr. Oliver,"
" Oh, so you just figured that one out, Miss Hart?" he replied back cheekily.
Suddenly the light dimmed and a slow song was played. Something from Diana Ross, Kim couldn't remember what the title was. But she surely knew what she wanted to do now. She looked up and offered Tommy her hand.
" So, do Mr. Devil want to have this dance with me?"
Tommy looked surprised, if only for a sec before he too reaching his hand and caught Kim's smaller one in his. " I'll be honor to,"
Tommy guided her to the dance floor, joining the others. He put his arms around her waist securely and Kim rested her head on his shoulder, both swaying to the music.
" Angels and demons aren't allowed to be together you know," Kim murmured, feeling her heart bubbled with a nice strange feeling. The one that always there when Tommy held her close. From the corner of her eyes she could see that Zack, finally cleaned up and changed into his best tux with a slight of fake blood on the side of his face, dancing closely with Angela, looking beautiful in her princess costume. Seeing her remind Kim of her own costume back home. It should wait until the next Halloween.
" Sometimes breaking the rule is needed, Kim," Tommy said back and Kim knew he was smiling. " and it's kinda romantic. Forbidden love," the last one made Kim smiled against his shoulder.
" I'm pretty sure Billy wasn't actually coming home to accompany his father,"
" And Trini wasn't actually tired like she said earlier,"
" Well, I think they would make a nice couple," Kim said, thinking about her yellow and blue friend. They had been friends since kindergarten and Kim knew more than anyone else that Trini had more than friendly feeling towards Billy.
" Amen to that," Tommy nodded, resting his chin on top of Kim's head.
" Did you really buy these things? Planning all of this since long?" Kim queried excitedly. She just had to know.
" Well, with all this ranger business, anything could happen," he lowered his voice and answered logically. " especially in a particular day like this, I didn't think Zedd would just rest and relax,"
" That's Tommy Oliver, always one step a head," she tip toed and kissed his cheek.
" I told Ernie to keep it for me, just in case anything happened. It's proofed to be handy at the last minute,"
" Nice one, Mr. Devil," she tried not to laugh when once again looking at the little horns on Tommy's head.
" Thank you, Mrs. Angel,"
" Happy halloween, Tommy,"
" Happy halloween, Kim,"
