Chapter 12 In the End

Tommy and Kim watched as the ex-rangers walked into the building for their prom.

"Tommy, this must be harder on you than any of us," Kim said.

"Why's that, Kim?" he asked.

"You have lost more powers than Billy and I combine," she said.

Tommy looked down and smiled. He had not realized how true that statement was. After losing his powers for the second time, he had pretty much stopped counting.

"Kim, I'm fine, really," Tommy said.

Billy and Trini walked in and went straight to Tommy and Kim.

"Hey you guys, sorry we're late," Billy apologized.

"No problem, Billy," Tommy said.

"The babysitter was late," Trini sighed.

"Trini, next time, leave Alex at our house," Kim said. "Kelly really is a good babysitter."

Kim's younger cousin was already out of high school and was going to college.

"I'll keep that in mind," Trini smiled.

Trent walked up to a young girl in yellow sitting by herself. She was busy humming the tune to her new song.

"Um, Kira, would you like to, you know…" Trent stuttered.

Kira looked over at Trent and smiled.

"Dance?" she laughed.

Trent blushed. He had never been real good in asking girls out.

"Yeah," Trent said.

"I'd like that, Trent," Kira smiled.

Conner slowly made his way to Ethan.

"Ethan…" he began.

"Yeah, Conner?" he asked.

"Did you ever think it would be like this?" he wondered.

"You mean losing our powers?" Ethan guessed.

"No, that us four would become friends like this," Conner said.

"Well, I think if we wouldn't have become PR's, then no. I don't think I would have even known your name," Ethan laughed.

"We all have changed throughout the year, haven't we? I mean, it's not embarrassing to be seen with you anymore," Conner noted.

"Thanks, I guess," Ethan said. "I have to say you're no longer the jock you were at the beginning of school either." He then noticed Conner watching Trent and Kira dance. "You really liked her, didn't you?"

Ethan's question shocked Conner.

"Um, what made you think I was interested in Kira?" Conner asked.

"You kind of made it obvious," Ethan laughed.

"Did you think Kira knew?" Conner asked.

"No, I think she was too busy worrying about Trent when you came on to her," Ethan said.

"No way, you heard… but how?" Conner asked.

"I overheard the two of you talking in the lab alone," Ethan said.

Kim got up from her seat and grabbed Tommy's hand.

"Come on, Tommy," she said.

"Do we have to dance, Kim?" he asked.

"I owe you a dance from the prom we never had," she smiled.

"If you say so," Tommy sighed.

Trini and Billy laughed as Kim pulled Tommy to the dance floor.

"You want to give dancing a shot?" Billy asked.

"Sure, why not," Trini smiled.

Kim began looking for a certain person. She could only find Trent.

"Tommy, wasn't Trent dancing with Kira a minute ago?" Kim asked.

"Yeah, why," he wondered.

"Well, he's all alone right now. You mind if I go talk to him?" Kim asked.

"Not at all. Go," Tommy smiled.

Kim walked over to Trent and tapped his shoulder.

"Oh hey, Kim," Trent said.

"Where did your date run off to?" she asked.

"She's kind of busy right now," Trent smiled.

Kira showed up on stage and began to sing. Her voice floated in the air as everyone danced.
