Authors Note: Here is the next chapter of a story that I have neglected unfortunately. It will not be neglected any more! Please R&R!

"Jase…"

"Let me get something straight…" He says, staring a hole through Tommy. "You meet up with Kimberly who was going out for a run, you try and talk to her, you yell at her for no apparent reason…"

"No, she was being very short with me…"

"And you expected her to jump for joy at seeing you Tommy! Now, I am trying very hard not to choose sides, but you… you are making this very hard for me Tommy. So, can I continue?" He asks, seeing that Tommy wasn't going to say anything more he continues, "You see her on the path, and you jump down her throat because she was not talking to you. Because she was being short with you?"

"Yes."

"You yelled at her for no reason?"

"No…"

"YES… the answer to that question is yes! Tommy, you yelled at her because she didn't feel comfortable talking to you. You expect her to jump at every chance to talk to you, after you cheat on her and dump her, inviting her and this other girl to Hawaii!"

"I didn't ask for that Jason."

"But you sure as hell didn't do anything to stop it."

"What the hell does that mean?"

"Exactly what it sounds like Tommy. You are punishing Kimberly because you dumped her. You have to figure out what the hell you want! I can't tell you that. I am not going to tell you that it is alright that you treated Kimberly like shit when it was your fault…"

"Now, you are pointing the finger Jason..."

"No, I am stating the facts. This was all you Tommy, and I am desperately trying not to take sides because you are like a brother to me and Kimberly is like a sister to me. I know how both of you feel. I have been in the same situation with you and Kimberly. I've been on both the giving and the receiving sides of the relationship, but you HAVE to stop it Tommy. Kimberly is going to come around when she is good and ready, and Hannah isn't making it any easier on Kim's part."

"What the hell does that mean!" He asks, getting defensive.

"It means that Hannah is flaunting it, whether she knows it or not, around that you two are an item. I have come to the realization that you two are together. I have accepted it, but I have not accepted or respected how Hannah is dealing with having Kim here."

"She has done everything she can to get to know Kim…"

"She has done everything she can to get Kim to know that you are hers now! How does that make Kim feel?"

"Well that's not my problem anymore…"

"No Tommy… Kimberly was only a part of your life for over three years. It isn't your problem anymore, because you took it and threw it out without a second thought. Maybe Hannah is all you deserve. You aren't good enough for Kimberly." Rocky says, as he finally gets to talk. Jason did a pretty good job of yelling, but Rocky decides it is time to be blunt.

"Shut up Rocky…"

"No Tommy." Jason cuts in, "Maybe you should rethink what you are trying to do to Kim, and what you want, because right now, I really don't think you have a clue." He shakes his head. He lies back on his bed, resting his hands on his eyes.

"Jason…"

"I just don't believe it Tommy…"

"Me neither." Rocky says. "I don't understand how you can just get rid of Kim… which is exactly what you did… after three years for a girl you hardly even know! You blew your relationship on a whim Tom. You sir, are an idiot."

Tommy looks like he wants to punch Rocky, but he doesn't. He contains his rage with a clenched fist, staring Rocky down, "Don't be mad at me Tommy. If anyone, you should be mad at yourself. I have a pretty good idea that after this morning, you have lost any chance to have Kimberly as anything towards you, even a friend."

"We have to meet everyone for breakfast in fifteen minutes." Jason says, looking at his watch, standing up, "I'm gonna head over and see if Zack and Adam are almost ready."

He couldn't stand to be in the same room as Tommy. He really doesn't want to take sides, but Tommy was just being a complete ass about the whole situation. He knocks on the hotel door and walks in, "You guys almost ready?"

"Yeah man." Zack says, "What's wrong?"

"What do you mean?"

"You look pissed."

"I am."

"At?"

"Tommy."

"Why?" Adam asks.

"He and Kimberly had words today, brought on by Tommy."

"I thought you weren't taking sides."

"I'm not."

"You are."

Jason tells Zack the abbreviated version of the story, "And that is from Tommy's mouth?" Adam asks.

"Yeah."

"I'd take Kim's side too."

"Same here. Yo, the boy is going nuts. I really think Hannah is the worst thing for him."

"I don't blame Hannah." Adam says.

"I do." Jason sighs.

"It isn't her fault that she fell for Tommy, who thinks he fell for her back, cheating on his girlfriend…"

"But it is her fault that she is flaunting their relationship like there is no tomorrow." Jason sighs.

"I guess." Adam shrugs.

"They're both idiots." Zack says.

"I'll agree with that."

Back in the girl's room, Kimberly was doing alright. The girls weren't too happy with the situation, but understand that it is difficult for the both of them. "We need to meet up with the gang soon for breakfast."

"I'm really not that hungry." Kim says.

"Tough, you are going with us." Aisha replies.

"I need to get a shower."

"Make it a quick one." Trini says.

"What the hell does it matter if I go or not huh!" Kimberly says, angry with them that they are forcing her to go, "I am not hungry, I don't want to eat, I am not going to eat, and I am not going to deal with him. If I am out in time then I'll go, if not, deal with it." Kim shouts, going into the bathroom and slamming the door.

"This is going to be a long week." Trini says to Aisha, who shakes her head.

"And just think, we are only one day into our vacation."

"You know she isn't coming out of there and getting dressed in ten minutes…"

"I know." Trini sighs.

"We have to do something about those two, otherwise, we won't ever see Kim again."

Kimberly stays in the shower purposely for at least fifteen minutes, knowing that she would miss breakfast. The girls would be annoyed at her, but they expect it. She just doesn't want to see Tommy this soon after their encounter this morning. She takes her time getting dressed. By 10:30, Aisha and Trini get back to the room.

"Here, eat something." Aisha says, placing fruit in front of Kim.

She smiles at her, "Thanks."

"We took like every type of fruit they had, and you better eat them."

"I am."

"Are you feeling any better?" Trini asks.

"For now." She says, "What are we doing today?"

"The guys were talking about going hiking on a trail before lunch. There is a great view of the island and it only takes about two hours to do."

"Well, that sounds great."

"Yeah, it should be a good time. Tommy says that its quite a climb though."

"Nothing we haven't done before." She smiles at Trini. "What time are we going?"

"Fifteen minutes. So eat up, and get ready."

"I just need my sneakers." She says, popping a grape in her mouth.

Aisha ties her braids back into a long ponytail, changing into sneakers. Kimberly ties her hair back into lose pigtails, and Trini, hers into a simple ponytail. The girls then each take a room to grab their friends.

"How are we getting there?" Rocky asks.

"Motorcycles. My uncle has 5 bikes that he is loaning us. I figured each guy grab a girl and start moving out."

"What if I want to drive?" Aisha says.

"You can't support our body weight." Rocky teases, immediately getting flipped over onto his back, "Ouch… I stand correct it." He groans.

"I would hope so." She smiles, helping him up, "But you're probably right. We couldn't safely ride you guys on the backs of our bikes."

"I'll grab the keys." Tommy says, "Then we can head out."

A few seconds later, he comes out and chucks the keys to each guy. They all put on helmets that are sitting on the back of the bikes and pair off.

Kimberly mounts up with Jason, Aisha with Zack, Trini with Rocky, Kat with Adam, Hannah with Tommy and they all head off to the trail. They guys were thrilled to be behind the wheels of a motorcycle. They love showing off, and all the girls could do was hang on to the guys and pray they don't wreck. After fifteen minutes, they arrive at the trail. They park their bikes.

"You guys are such showoffs." Kat laughs at the five.

"We are not!" The guys exclaim in defense.

"You are! I mean, you guys go as fast as you possibly can, weave in and out from each other, and pray you don't die." Aisha laughs.

"That's right." Kim laughs.

They stand at the bottom of the climb and look up, "This is quite a climb." Hannah says.

"Nothing we haven't done before… oh wait, I doubt you've ever done this before." Kim mutters.

"Kimberly…" Tommy warns, but she ignores him.

"No, I haven't." Hannah says.

"If you don't want to do it I'm sure Tommy will take you back to the hotel with him." Kim continues smugly.

"No, I think I can do it. If you can do it I can. I'm sure Tommy will help me." Hannah replies just as smug.

Rocky sees Kim's mouth start to open and says, "Let's move upward."

"Alright!" Jason replies.

Kimberly jumps up and takes the lead with Aisha and Jason. She didn't want to see Tommy and Hannah, so she was eager to get moving again.

There weren't a lot of people on the trail yet and it was relatively quiet.

"Its pretty up here." Kat says.

"Yeah, I agree." Trini replies.

"It's quite a hike." Rocky subtly complains.

"Too tough for you Rocco?" Aisha grins.

"Never."

"Uh-huh." Kim smiles, "You can't cut it can ya Rocky?"

"I can too." He teases, "I don't know if you girls can cut it."

"I can go up this hill fifteen times… in a row." Kim laughs.

"Damn gymnasts." He laughs.

"What?"

"Too much stamina… I pity the one who marries and when…"

"Don't say it Rocco." Kim laughs.

"It gets fairly steep up here gang." Tommy says.

"How steep?" Jason asks.

"Practically crawling on your hands and knees."

"That steep eh?"

"And narrow."

"We should alternate, girls up ahead of a guy."

"Why?" Trini asks.

"Incase one of you falls we can grab you."

"I'm pretty sure we'll be fine." Kimberly replies.

"I don't care." Jason says.

"Incase we fall…" Kim thinks, huffing. "I'm a gymnast for Christ sake."

"Kim, you taking the head?"

"Fine." She says, pausing a second to look up the steep incline. "Boy, he wasn't kidding…" She says.

"No, I wasn't." Tommy says, standing next to his ex.

"I don't know about this…" Hannah says wrapping her arms around Tommy, who does the same to her.

"You'll be fine." Tommy says. "Besides, I got your back."

Kimberly scowls at him, "With his big head he can catch the entire group if they fall."

"What?" Tommy replies, knowing that she was saying something to him, but couldn't hear her because she was muttering.

"Let's go." She says. Kimberly started up the mountain, moving rather quickly.

"Kim, slow down a bit." Jason calls from behind her but she doesn't listen. She continues at her quick pace. "Kimberly, I'm serious, slow the hell down. Tommy says it gets lose up there."

Kimberly sighs, and slows down her pace a bit, not looking back. The ground changes textures and becomes very loose. Kimberly feels her footing start to slip, but she continues on. About half way up the hill, she loses her footing completely, and starts to slide down the steep incline rapidly. She lets out a cry of fear. "Kim, watch out!" Jason shouts, grabbing for her, but he misses her. "Tommy…" He calls to his friend. Tommy was at the bottom of the line, grabs her hand jerking her shoulder.

"Ouch." She says, as he pulls her into a sitting position on the path.

"Oh my god, are you ok!" Tommy asks her, "Kimberly."

"Yeah…" She pants, looking down at how far she would have fallen if Tommy didn't grab her. "Thanks…"

"No problem." He says, squatting down next to her, "Let me see your arm…"

"It's fine."

"Come on Kim, let me see your arm." He says, pulling at it gently. He sees the scratches and the blood falling from her arm.

"Jesus Kim, you're bleeding." Hannah cries.

"Thank you captain obvious." Kimberly says, rolling her eyes, as Tommy pokes at the wounds, "Ouch… Tommy…"

"You have gravel in your cut Kim… hold still."

"Are you ok?" Aisha asks, standing below her friend.

"I'm fine… just a bit shaken up…" She says, still in shock of slipping.

"You could have died…"

"Thank you Hannah…"

"Give me some water." Tommy says to Zack who was carrying their bag. He hands him a bottle and he cleans her wound.

She winces in pain, "Ouch…"

Finally he is done and dresses her wound.

"Ok, let's keep going." Kim says, standing up, "Thanks." She says quietly to Tommy who smiles. They then make their way back up the mountain. Kim was very shaky, but doesn't want it to seem like she is scared of the climb, though her entire body was one white knuckle. Everyone takes more caution heading up the side of the mountain and finally they get to the top. Kim lets out a long breath of air that she wasn't obvious of holding. Her arm is throbbing however she pushes that to the back of her mind. Aisha walks up to her friend and puts her arm on her shoulder, "Are you ok?"

"I hurt like hell." Kim says honestly.

"Did you break anything?" Trini asks.

"Only my ego." She says, brushing a stray piece of hair out of her eyes. "I'm so embarrassed."

"You're lucky you aren't dead." Rocky says.

"I know…" She sighs, looking down from the top of the mountain. "Can we just not talk about it?"

"Right." Trini says.

Kimberly rubs her shoulder where she was jerked. Her shoulder was hurting more than her cut up arm. She looks out at the view. It was well worth the trek up the mountain.

"Nice little hill isn't it?" Adam laughs.

"Yeah." Kimberly smiles, "It took quite a long time to get up here."

"It's worth it though…" Kat smiles.

"Yeah, it truly is." She looks up at the rock formation that hovers approximately twenty feet higher. She looks at Jason and smiles, "Care for some rock climbing?"

"Are you up for it?"

"What do you mean?" She asks, playing dumb.

"Your shoulder…"

"I'll live." She smiles, "Let's climb."

When the 'original" team was younger, they use to climb everything from trees to cliffs. Their parents would flip at the sight of them climbing higher and higher. They eventually gave up with the kids, and learned to look the other way.

"Sure." Jason says, shooting a glance back at Trini and Zack.

"I'm in." Zack smiles.

"Same here." Trini says, "Anyone else?"

"I'll take a crack at it." Aisha smiles.

"Me too." Both Rocky and Adam say.

"What about you three?"

Katherine looks up the rock, "Sure." She smiles.

"I don't think I'm going to." Hannah says, "I'm not much of a climber."

"Tommy?"

"I'll stay with Hannah." He says, not wanting her to feel left out.

"That's really sweet." Hannah smiles, running a hand over his cheek.

Kimberly turns her head and makes a face of disgust. They are truly making her physically ill, "I'm heading up." She says, finding her footing. Her shoulder was hurting her more than she was letting on, so she relied on her leg strength to push herself up the twenty foot rock. Rocky was hot on her tail, keeping fairly close quarters to the original pink ranger. The strain on her arms caused her arm to begin bleeding again. The cuts that formed a scab were ripped open. "Ouch." She says, holding on with her good arm, looking at her hand.

"You ok Kim?" Rocky asks.

"Fine." She says, looking up at him. She continues climbing till they reach the top, then she pulls herself up and rubs her shoulder.

"Kim, you're bleeding again." Trini says.

"Don't worry about it." Kim says, brushing the blood off her arm.

"Look at this view!" Aisha gushes, "You can see half way across the ocean."

"Yeah, I'm sure of that Ish." Adam says, rolling his eyes, "Since half way across is the Philippians… Ouch!" He says, rubbing his arm.

"I think you've been spending a bit too much time with Rocky and Zack, Adam…" Kim smiles.

"I'll say. I liked you better when you were shy." Aisha smiles.

"Oh well." Adam shrugs.

Kat looks down at Tommy and Hannah who are sitting side by side on the edge of the cliff. She has her arms wrapped around Tommy's arm, and her head on his shoulder. He didn't seem to mind. Kat shakes her head. Even when she did like Tommy, she never thought about "moving in" on Kimberly's position when she was not evil. She couldn't do that to Kimberly. Even though Hannah doesn't know Kim that well, shouldn't she feel the same way? Kat sighs, "What's up?" Jason asks the girl.

"Them." She says, pointing down to her friend and his new girlfriend, "Kimberly is still hurting Jason, and he doesn't seem to care…"

"He does… he just doesn't think he does. Does that make any sense?"

"Hmm, yeah, but you used too many does's." She laughs.

"I know." He smiles back, watching Hannah kiss Tommy. "He really has to shape the hell up."

"Yeah…" Kat agrees.

"I'm going back down." Kim says, as she begins her decent back down the rock. She gets down and sees Hannah and Tommy, so instead of waiting for everyone else, she takes off back down the mountain at a slow but steady pace. She hears Jason yell for her, but she doesn't care. All she wants is to get the hell away from Tommy and Hannah. They were sitting on the side, kissing like there was no tomorrow.

"Kimberly!" Jason calls.

"I'll get her." Aisha nods, heading down the hill. "Hey girl, slow down. I'm gonna end up like you, falling on my ass." She calls, as she sees her friend slow up. "What's going on?"

"I can't sit there and watch Tommy and Hannah Aisha." She says, continuing down the hill.

"Girl, it's going to happen…"

"It shouldn't. He and I never sat down and made out with all of you around, especially when we just broke up!"

"You two broke up before!" She asks, trying to lighten up the talk.

"Aisha, you know what I mean."

"I know… but it's how Hannah is…"

"I don't fucking care Aisha! Tommy should know better! I just want to get back to the hotel and get away from Tommy…"

"Ok, so then, lets go shopping?"

"That sounds great…"

"I think so too. We just need the guys so we can get the keys…"

"We should just take two." She laughs.

"We still need the keys." Aisha says, looking up the hill, seeing everyone descending. "They are on their way down, come on, let's wait for them at the bottom."

"Right." Kim says, sighing. The girls make it down relatively fast, and get on the back of a bike, waiting for their friends to return. They all drive back, and Kimberly and Aisha begin talking about shopping.

"There's two malls around here, and I think that we can do both of them in one day." Aisha smiles.

"Good. I say lets do it." Kim replies, "Do you guys wanna go?" She asks the girls, knowing the guys answer will be no, along with Hannah's.

"Yeah sure." Trini smiles.

"Sounds like fun." Kat says.

"Sure." Hannah replies.

Kim stops dead, "What?"

"I'd love to go." She smiles sweetly, "Is that ok with you Tommy?"

"Fine." He says, shortly.

"What about you Kimmy?"

"It's Kimberly, and yeah, why wouldn't it?" She says, looking at Aisha for help, who shrugs her shoulders.

"Well, great!" Hannah smiles, "It will be so nice to get to know you Kimberly."

Kim felt like she was drowning. She just smiles and the girls head out. They are going to meet the guys at the restaurant for dinner, and then that night they will all go for a night swim.

"This is going to be a long day." Kimberly whispers to the three rangers.
