Summary: Sorry for the cliffhanger. Find out what Jason has planned.
Chapter 2 Making Your Dream Come True
Hayley was more than a little confused after hearing Jason's words.
"You're really weird, Jason," she laughed. "You call Tommy's place, yet you don't want him to know what you're going to say."
"Work with me here. It's a spur of the moment kind of thing. I was going to tell him, but surprising him is going to be great," Jason said.
"What's your genius plan?" Hayley asked.
"Kim," Jason said.
The phone went silent. Hayley did not know what to say.
"Hayley? Listen to me. I'm sorry if you have feelings for the guy, but Tommy and Kim were meant to be," Jason said.
She looked down. Her body went cold. She had had feelings for him once, but it never worked out.
"Jason, I'm all right. It's just funny that you mentioned her name," Hayley replied.
"Really? Why, has he been talking about her?" Jason asked.
"Jason, you wouldn't believe what happened. Tommy and I drank one of his mind reading potions," Hayley said.
"At least you already knew about us being Power Rangers," he laughed.
"Yeah, no kidding," Hayley sighed.
"I have a feeling there's more to this story," Jason predicted.
There was something in her voice that made Jason feel uneasy.
"It started with a dream…" Hayley began.
"Let me guess. It was about Kim, wasn't it?" Jason guessed.
"Bingo," Hayley replied.
"I hope the dream wasn't too reveling," Jason laughed.
"No, thank God. Anyway, when Tommy told me that his dreams were his wishes, I nearly froze," Hayley said.
"Why were you so surprised?" Jason asked.
Jason was a little confused. Why was Hayley surprised to hear about the dream?
"Here's the thing, even though he still dreams and wishes about her, he knows that they both have moved on. Oh, and get this, he's never mentioned having those dreams," Hayley said.
"He's told me. He hasn't told Kim," Jason replied.
He had to admit, keeping the secret was not the easiest thing to do. There were a number of occasions when Jason almost let it out in front of Kim. Kim was just happy that she and Tommy were even on speaking terms.
"They still talk? You better explain yourself, Scott," Hayley command.
He sighed. Jason should have known Tommy would not have told her.
"He knew you all would react like that, so I guess he decided not to tell you guys," he said.
"Why does he say that they both have moved on?" Hayley asked.
"They're playing each other's games, dancing around their feelings," Jason sighed.
He wished that they would just tell each other that they still loved each other.
"Oh," Hayley said.
"I was thinking of bringing Kim and see how things end up," Jason replied.
"You think they'd get mad at you for doing this?" Hayley asked.
"They'll get over it in time," Jason prayed.
"You think they'll ever care for one another like they used to?" Hayley wondered.
"I'm hoping this will," Jason sighed.
"I better go before Tommy gets worried. Bye," Hayley said.
"Bye. We'll be here in two days," Jason informed her.

Hayley slowly made her way down the stairs. The man in the chair turned to her.
"Who was that?" Tommy asked as Hayley looked his way.
"Wrong number," she said.
Tommy laughed as Hayley sat down next to him.
"You're lying. You were up there too long for that to be a wrong number," he told her.
"I was thirsty," Hayley said, holding up a glass of water.
"You're an awful liar," Tommy laughed.
Hayley sighed as she turned his way.
"All right, all right. I'll be breaking a promise then. It was Jason. He's coming in two days. He wanted it to be a surprise knowing I was the one that answered," she said.
Tommy surprisingly bought Hayley's half lie. At least the biggest part of the conversation would be a secret, until it was time.

Day 6
A red mustang drove into Tommy's driveway. The four teens in it entered the house.
"Tomorrow's the day," Conner screamed as he entered the lab, along with Kira, Ethan, and Trent.
"It's already kind of fading," Hayley informed them.
Tommy got out of his chair to face the teens.
"One other thing I want you to know," he began.
"What is it, Dr. O?" Trent asked.
"Jason's coming for a visit," Tommy said.
"No way," Ethan yelled.
"Jason… the original Red Ranger?" Kira asked.
"The one and only," Conner smiled.
Conner was excited to meet the first Red Ranger. The computer then went off.
"You guys, we got trouble," Hayley replied.
"What is it, Hayley?" Tommy asked.
They all gathered around the monitor.
"Oh no," Ethan said. "The Tyranodrones just took those two civilians!"
"Is it me, or did they look really familiar?" Kira asked.
"I couldn't get a clear picture," Tommy said.

Elsa and Zeltrax were tying up the two civilians when Mesogog entered the room.
"So nice of you to join me in my lab," he hissed.
"What are you going to do with us?" the young woman asked.
"You better let us go, now," the young man yelled.
"I can't," Mesogog said.
"And why the hell not? We have no use to you," the young woman cried.
"That's where you're wrong my dear. You see, I know more about you than you think," Mesogog said.
The two looked at each other in shock.

Day 7
"Damn it, let's go to the island and get them already," Conner insisted.
"I'm agreeing with Conner on this one, Dr. O," Kira sighed.
"Just let me call Jason," Tommy said.
"He's going to kill me," Hayley replied.
"I'll tell him I forced you to tell me, Hayley," Tommy told her.
The phone rang, rang, and rang some more.
"He's not answering," Tommy replied.
"Let's just get the hell out of here," Trent said.
"We've already wasted too much time," Ethan sighed.
"Dino Thunder, power up," the all yelled.

They were all walking through the empty hall.
"I have a feeling they're in there," Ethan said.
"Quick, open the doors," Tommy yelled.
Tyranodrones came running out of the room.
"You think you can handle these creeps?" Tommy asked, kicking three Tyranndrones to the ground.
"Sure thing, Dr. O," Conner said.
Tommy ran inside and stopped dead in his tracks.
"Thank God. It's the Black Ranger," the young woman smiled.
She had no clue that the Black Ranger knew more about her than she thought.
"Glad you decided to come for us. I was beginning to think you didn't care," the young man smarted off.
"Come on, give me a break," Tommy said.
"You mind telling me what this is all about?" the young woman asked.
She could not help but have a feeling that the two knew each other. Tommy turned to the young man after untying the young woman.
"You've never told her?" he asked.
"I thought that was your job," the young man said. Tommy looked over at the young woman and sighed. "Kim…it's me. It's Tommy."
"Tommy," she squealed. Kim would have run straight into his arms, but that was not going to happen with her still tied up. He finally cut through and she wrapped her arms around him. "Jason, why the hell didn't you tell me?"
"I figured he would," he said.
"Whatever, let's just get out of here," Kim sighed.
"Right," Tommy said.
Kim tapped on his shoulder.
"How did you know we were coming, Tommy?" she asked.
"I forced Hayley to tell me. She didn't say you were coming though," he said, turning towards Jason.
"Um, Hayley?" Kim asked.
Her head fell. He had not told her that he had a girlfriend.
"Yeah, we went to grad school together," Tommy informed her.
"So, you two are…" Kim began.
"Hardly, Kim," Tommy laughed. "She helps out with the new team."
Seeing Kim's reaction proved to Jason that she still had feelings for Tommy.

Within a couple of minutes, they were all in the Command Center.
"Are you going to kill me, Jason?" Hayley asked.
"Not at all, Hayley," he smiled.
Conner cleared his throat.
"Excuse me, but can someone explain to us what's going on?" he asked.
Kira looked back from Jason and Kim.
"You have a shot term memory loss," she laughed.
"I know that's Jason, but who is the chick?" Conner asked.
Kim's mouth went down to the ground.
"Chick," she snapped.
"Excuse him, Kimberly. He's a little out of it," Ethan said.
"You must be a former Ranger too, right?" Trent asked Kim.
"That's us," Kim smiled. "Nothing but old Rangers."
"So, what brings you to sunny Reefside?" Ethan asked.
"Well, we thought it would fun to visit our old leader," Jason said.
"We? You mean you, Jason," Kim laughed.
She could clearly remember him asking her to come with him. At first, she did not know why. She had forgotten that Tommy lived in Reefside. It was all making sense now to her. During the drive to Tommy's was when Kim remembered where they exactly they were going.
"All right, it was mostly all my idea, but need I remind you, Miss. Hart, that you were the one asking every five minutes if we were at Tommy's yet like a little girl," Jason said.
Tommy covered his mouth to mask the sound of his laughing.
"What can I say, I hate being in the car for a long time," Kim said.
"Somehow, that's hard to believe," Jason laughed.

Elsa had noticed something while watching the cameras.
"The girl seems to have an affect on Tommy, master," she said.
"Indeed she does. Let's invite her back, Elsa," Mesogog insisted.
"I'll send her an invitation," she laughed.
Elsa disappeared to the park where Tommy, Kim, and Jason were.

Tommy and Kim could not stop exchanging glances with one another. Jason was glad that his plan was going off without a hitch until Elsa and Tyrannodrones appeared.
"Your friends sure do drop by a lot, Tommy," Kim said.
"Friends… no," he replied.
Tyranodrones held Tommy and Jason back as Elsa took Kim's hand.
"Get your hands off of me," she yelled.
"Let her go, Elsa," Tommy commanded.
"It looks like the Black Ranger does have feelings," she said.
Tommy's face crinkled up as Elsa laughed.
"Just let her go," Jason begged.
He could see the look on Tommy's face, and it was not flattering. Elsa was not going to like what Tommy was going to do to her if her if he escaped the clutches of the Tyranndrones.
"Elsa, come back! Kimberly," Tommy yelled.
She was gone with Kim.
"Go after her bro. You're the only one that has been able to save her," Jason said.
"Go back to the house and inform the others. Here's the keys to the jeep," Tommy replied.
"Get her back. Not just from Mesogog. Get her back for good," Jason said.
"Dino Thunder, power up," Tommy yelled.

The Black Ranger broke down every door until he heard his name.
"Tommy," Kim yelled.
"Kim…" he softly said. Jason's words still burned in his head. 'Get her back for good.' "Hold on." He cut the ropes and helped Kim down, and she quickly wrapped her arms around him. "Power down!" Tommy stood still, as if in shock. He had felt the spark. The spark of when they first laid eyes each other. It was there once again, and it was happening now. "Oh, Kim." Tommy returned Kim's embrace, but only for a second. They still needed to get out. "We got to book it." Oh, and for Kim… it was the same feeling. Something that she never thought she would feel again. "Quick, jump!" He pulled Kim to him and jumped into the invisaportal before the Tyranodrones entered. "You okay, Kim?"
"Yeah, I'm fine," she moaned. As Kim picked herself up, she tripped and fell into Tommy's arms. "Sorry."
"No problem. I've been wondering when you'd fall for me again," Tommy laughed.
"And you didn't even have to try," Kim smiled.
"Huh?" Tommy asked. Were Tommy ears hearing what he thought he just heard? "Come again?"
Kim, who was still in the arms of Tommy, leaned ever so closer to his mouth.
"Tommy," she said, biting her lip.
"Hey, no one's stopping you, Beautiful," he smiled.
Kim finished her move towards Tommy and landed on his lips. She had not felt his lips in over nine years.
AN: So sorry for the wait. I had computer problems. Hope you enjoyed.
