**************** Slime Spa and resort***************
Rita let herself sink deeper into the thick green slime that filled this outdoor spa. Oh she needed this. It had been ages since she had a good slime soak. When she got back. She would have to insist on adding a slime tub to her chambers. She could just float here all day and let the goo take her worries away.
"Rita Darling! I thought that was you!" A voice greeted from the edges of the pool.
Rita yanked the lemon slices off her eyes. "Oh Divatox, it's you."
Divatox, the sexy sea pirate of the stars and seas, grabbed a lounge chair and sat down. "I hear congratulations are in order. You finally took over that little blue mud puddle of a planet. It only took you what 10,000 plus years? Guess getting married to Lord Zedd really paid off."
Rita smiled but her eyes held rage. "And what about you Divatox? Last I heard you were engaged to Malgor... but you never got hitched."
"We had a difference of opinions. He was from a volcano, I from the sea. Never would have worked out. He just wasn't my type." Divatox replied with a slight snort. Clearly a lie on her part. "But rumor has it Rita," Divatox lowered her voice. "That the power rangers are back."
"Ha! Ha! Ha! The power rangers? What fool started that rumor? They are dead."
"All of them?" Divatox seemed surprised.
"Enough of them." Rita replied thinking of Billy and ugh... that pretty little Kimberly.
"Oh well then, rumor must be wrong that Ninjor was seen leaving his temple with a power ranger." Divatox smirked. "Oh look at the time. I'm late for my worm salt scrub. We must catch up again soon. Tootles." Divatox waved, walking away.
Rita stewed in her slime. The rangers were gone but there was usually some truth in space rumors. If there was a power ranger or rangers they might just be able to take back the earth. She would be the laughing stock of the universe if she lost earth. No, Zedd would be the laughing stock if she wasn't there when these rangers attacked. She sighed, maybe Finster had been right. Perhaps she should go home for a visit. Rita pulled herself from the sticky pool. "Putties!" She screamed, her minions rushing to her call. "Start packing! I have such a headache!"
******************** Falcon Zord***************************
Kathrine watched as items began to pour from Ninjor's blue vase. It had been decided that for now they would set up an area for everyone to stay in. Tommy wasn't mean about it but his Zord was big and it would be easy for them to get into trouble.
Kat was fluffing up some pillows that had been summoned forth. Aisha and Ninjor were setting up a table, tea set and plates while Tommy and Rocky were laying out practice mats.
Tommy still had that goofy smile on his face when he turned to Rocky. "You're a fighter right? Wanna spar? I haven't had a practice partner in awhile."
Rocky wanted to ask what had happened to the other rangers but instead, "I would but I'm no match for a ranger."
Tommy looked down. "Oh right, sorry. I forgot." A moment later his ninjetti clothing was gone. Now he just stood as a normal teen, in a white tee shirt and jeans. "So... wanna spar?" Tommy asked again, clearly eager.
Rocky smiled, cracking his shoulders. "Yeah, let's spar."
"Oh good, this should be enjoyable. Tea ladies? I have some wonderful honey cakes around here someplace." Ninjor offered.
For not being a human. Kat thought Ninjor was very kind. A little strange but he didn't seem bad at all. Quite friendly in-spite of his ego.
Aisha and Kat both nodded and sat down while Ninjor made tea and Tommy and Rocky circled each other slowly on the mats.
"So let me get this straight. Right now your normal? No special powers?" Rocky asked.
"Yup."
"Good... Hi-Ya!" Rocky was the first to attack with a punch that Tommy blocked, seeing the block Rocky tried a sweeping kick. Tommy back flipped away.
"Not bad." Tommy praised. "You're good."
Rocky smirked. "Been training for years."
"Me too. My turn. Ai -Ya!" Tommy shouted dashing at Rocky.
Kat couldn't take her eyes off the boys in front of her. They way the fought and moved. It was almost like dancing. "I've never seen anything like this before." She said out loud.
"Fighting is new to you Katherine?" Ninjor asked holding out a teacup.
The blonde took it with a nod. "Yeah stuff like this was just never part of my life."
"That's nothing Kat." Aisha said as she suddenly stood. "Hey, Hold on a second guys."
Both stopped and looked at her with questioning faces as Aisha smiled. "Got room for a third?"
So Kat sat with Ninjor, drinking tea and nibbling on a honeycake, while watching her new friends show skills she could only dream of having.
She didn't know why but her heart ached to join them.
******************Billy and Kim's room******************
Kimberly put her hands on her face. She couldn't look at Billy or Adam right now. She was trembling with embarrassment. Zedd had given her a slave and... and made him kiss her feet. God that must have been so gross for Adam to do.
And why has she kind of liked it? That's didn't make any sense.
Adam pulled at the collar around his neck slightly. This was bad. He opened his mouth to address the two teens when Justin pulled himself from under the bed. Bulk and Skull right beside him. "Adam?"
"Justin. I've made a mess of things." Adam sunk to the floor beside the kid. "With this. I can't go back to the kitchens now. I can't stay with you. I'm sorry." Adam wanted to cry but he felt so numb. He looked towards his new 'mistress'. Billy had pulled Kim into his arms and was whispering quietly to her.
Adam felt a lump of fear rise when they finally turned to him. "Please. I don't care if you want to use me or hurt me but please let Justin go. He's just a kid."
"Adam, I don't want to leave you." Justin said.
"They ain't gonna abuse ya." A voice Adam had not heard before spoke. He turned and catching sight of the two moving dolls next to Justin he back pedaled, standing quickly. "Who? What? How?" Adam asked mouth hanging open in surprise.
"Geez, you're as bad at the questions as they were." The round doll pointed at Billy and Kim. "I'm Bulk, this is Skull, we used to be human, Rita made us toys blah blah blah you get the story."
"You should tell them who you are Kim. Then he won't be so scared your gonna boss him around." Skull said.
"We weren't even suppose to tell you." Billy replied to the wooden toy.
"Too be fair. I guessed."
Adam frowned. "Wait, I thought you were just Zedd's favorites?"
"Well we... kinda are." Billy replied, rubbing the back of his neck sheepishly.
"And you didn't wonder why? Sheesh... they're power rangers." Bulk said matter of fact. "The last ones left."
"No way!" Justin's eyes gleamed brightly. "That's so cool!"
"Bulk!" Kimberly hissed. "That wasn't your secret to tell!"
Bulk shrugged, "Yeah well since he's your slave now I doubt Adam will be leaving anytime soon. Might as well get all the secrets out in the open. So Adam, understand now that she won't hurt you?"
"Yeah...yeah just..." Adam swallowed hard and looked from Kim to Billy and then to Justin. "What about Justin?"
