Chapter 6 White Ranger Revealed

Kira sat next to Trent on a bench at the park. The week seemed to have passed by so fast. She figured that if Trent was indeed the White Ranger, he would tell her now. Knowing how she would react if he was the White Ranger was still unknown.

"Glad to see you came this time," Kira said.

Trent closed his book and looked at her.

"Guess I deserved that," he said.

To her surprise, he was actually like normal Trent again.

"No, Trent, I'm sorry. It's just that I've been stood up by so many guys, and…" Kira began.

"You thought I was going to do the same," he guessed.

"Sort of," Kira said.

Kira hated letting him know that this early, but she really thought Trent would be different. Trent took a deep breath. He had to tell Kira, but he did not know how. Knowing that she was the Yellow Ranger made it even worse.

"Listen, I don't know what came over me yesterday, but after I…" Trent began.

"After what?" Kira asked.

"Forget it. You don't need to worry about it," Trent said.

Trent just could not do it. He then felt Kira's hand covering his.

"Hey, I'll be here for you if you ever need to talk to someone," Kira said.

Trent's book fell to the drawing of the White Ranger.

"There's something I need to tell you," he said.

Kira looked up from the drawing. She took a deep breath. This certainly was not good in kicking Trent out of the suspect list.

"Trent, if you want to be a super hero, the White Ranger is not who you want to be," Kira said.

"I don't have a choice, Kira," he sighed.

Trent pulled up his sleeve to reveal his bracelet.

"You almost killed me the other day," Kira yelled.

"But I didn't. Once I knew it was you…" Trent began.

Trent took her hand as she got up.

"Let go of me," Kira yelled.

"Kira, you got to believe me. The gem has changed me," Trent said.

"Why should I?" she asked.

He took Kira by the waist. A slight spark ran through her body.

"Because I'd never intentionally hurt anybody. Especially you," Trent said.

It puzzled Kira why she had not told Trent to let go of her waist.

"Come with me," Kira said, pulling Trent's arms away from her.

"Where?" Trent asked.

"To the Cyber café. You need to talk to Kim," Kira said.

"Kim?" Trent asked.

"Dr. O's wife," Kira said.

"What does he or she have to do with this?" Trent asked.

"Ethan, Conner, and Dr. O are all Power Rangers, too," Kira said.

Kim walked into the cyber café. All she knew about this place was that it was owned by a woman named Hayley. She spotted Kira waving to her. A nervous boy with his head down sat next to her. Kim knew how bad it was killing Kira knowing that Trent in the end was the White Ranger.

"Is that him?" Kim asked.

Trent's head shot up.

"Mrs. Oliver, please, I didn't want it to be this way. Don't hurt me," he begged.

"I'm not going to hurt you, Trent," Kim said, putting a hand on his shoulder.

"You're not?" he asked.

"No, I'm not," Kim laughed.

He reminded her so much of a younger Tommy.

"Why not? I almost killed your husband," Trent said.

"No offence, but no one is a match for Tommy. Trent, Tommy was in your shoes when he first was a Power Ranger, too," Kim replied.

"Wait a minute. Dr. Oliver was an evil Power Ranger?" Trent asked.

Kira looked down and smiled. She had forgotten he had not seen the video.

"Yes, and so was I. Well, not the evil part anyway," Kim said.

"So, Dr. Oliver was an evil Power Ranger, too?" Trent asked.

"He sure was," Kim said.

"I want to believe so badly I can become normal again, but it's getting worse," Trent sighed.

It was getting harder for him to control himself as the White Ranger. Every time the gem took over him, the power was getting harder to fight to get back.

"We're going to help you," Kira said.

"I need to get away. I'm not going to allow myself to hurt you anymore," Trent told her.

Kira looked at Kim as Trent walked away.

"Go after him," Kim whispered.

"Trent, wait up," Kira called.

Trent sighed and turned around.

"Kira, I can't. You need to stay away from me," he said. "The next time the White Ranger comes out, you might not make it."

"That's a risk I'm willing to take," she whispered.

"Why?" Trent asked.

"Because you… you're my… a friend," Kira said.

"It's good to know I can count on you," Trent smiled.

"We're going to find a way to break this," Kira said.

Kim smiled as she watched the two walk out. It was going to be hard telling Tommy who the White Ranger was.

"I hope you're ready," Kim whispered.

She knew it would bring back the memories of when he was evil. Knowing Trent and Kira were somewhat dating would bring back even more memories of the pain him and Kim were put through too.

Tommy had Maggie in his arms as Kim walked in the door. Her face wasn't content, or comfortable.

"Kim is everything all right?" Tommy asked. "What did Kira want?"

"Well, I know who the WR is," she said.

"And?" Tommy asked.

"It's Trent," Kim cried.

"Daddy, can I go to my room?" Maggie asked.

"Sure," Tommy said. He let his daughter down and she went skipping into her room. "Are you sure it's Trent?

He sat down next to Kim on the couch.

"Yeah, he told Kira this afternoon," Kim said.

Tommy put his hand on his forehead.

"Aw man, I can only imagine what this is doing to the both of them," he said.
