And I'm back with another chapter! There's not really any warnings for this chapter except to remind everyone that this is AU so I had to rearrange a few things to make it fit this universe. This chapter happens during the White Light episodes. (One of my favorite episodes.)

I hope you all enjoy this chapter! Read on!

The Manor Dojo

Kimberly sat on the mat in the dojo, sitting in a comfortable lotus pose. The baby was down for his morning nap with a full belly. Thankfully, her infant son didn't have Tommy's appetite, he was easier to nurse than Kayla had been.

However, at the moment, her mind was drifting back to her early days with Tommy…

-Flashback-

"So, what's next?" Kimberly asked softly. They had been at the cabin for almost a month now and between attacks from Zedd, and multiple rounds of sex, they had both settled into domestic bliss. However, school was beginning again and so they knew they would soon have to leave their privacy behind.

"I can't see us staying at your house, not with things the way they are."

Tommy nodded as they sat on the beach near the lake.

"For now, we don't have a choice." Tommy answered pulling Kimberly against him. "It's too far away for us to commute to school and back here every day and I won't be 18 for another year. Once school starts, we'll stay at the house in my room." Here Tommy paused and began pulling at the string at the back of Kim's bikini top. "When we want to mess around, we'll just have to be creative about where we decide to sneak off to."

"You're so bad." Kimberly said lightly smacking his arm. With an evil laugh that never ceased to thrill her, Tommy kissed her hotly and without a fight, Kimberly allowed him to lower her down to the blanket.

Her body was so receptive to his touch. The moment he touched her, she came to life. His lips left her mouth and sucked gently on her collar bone. At the same time, his hands playfully tugged her bikini top exposing her breasts to the open air. She knew what was coming and she was even more excited.

She loved it when he feasted on her like this! She never knew it could be this good, and she moaned softly as she felt his hand caress her stomach and then begin to travel lower to her nether regions. She no longer hesitated; instantly her legs fell open, inviting his touch.

Just as his hand tugged at her bottoms, a white light shone on them and suddenly, they were not on the beach anymore.

In less than a minute they found themselves in a secret room. Instantly Tommy pulled Kim against him covering her bare front.

"What's going on? Zordon, is this your doing?"

-End Flashback-

"Kim? What's going on?"

Kimberly was instantly snapped out of her sultry memories. She instantly looked up and saw Tommy kneeling in front of her.

"What?"

"I felt those sexy vibes coming from you. It's miracle that I don't walk around with a hard-on every minute of the day."

Kimberly shrugged, not the least bit embarrassed. "I can't help it. With our story coming to light, those memories keep sneaking up on me. Not that I'm complaining."

Tommy gave her a mischievous grin. "So, wanna tell me what chapter of our sexy love story brought on this?" He asked pointing to her top. The evidence of her arousal was easy to spot.

Kimberly smirked evilly. The day you got your powers…" She paused and then shifted to her knees and Tommy watched her as she crawled towards him and pushed him backwards onto the mat. "Remembering the way, you so boldly tasted me…"

Tommy's eyes sparkled. "You wouldn't be coming onto me, would you Mrs. Oliver?"

Kimberly was fully straddling him. "And if I was?" She reached between them and caressed her husband though his track pants.

Tommy gave her an evil look and languidly stroked her backside. "Don't stop, though I'd be quick about it. Anyone could just walk up and catch you riding my- " He didn't get to finish his sentence as Kimberly's lips were pressing against his.

He really hoped no on interrupted them. He'd forgotten to lock the door.

Much later…

Kimberly stood in the kitchen with her girls. It was almost dinner time and she was helping Tanya and Aisha prepare the food. Kira and Connor were there, though they were preoccupied with their little brother. This night, Jason and Trini had also stopped by for the weekend with their little girl, Michelle, who was now just over a year old. Currently, she was sitting in the high chair snacking on cheerios.

"So, from what I hear, the tale as old as time is being rehashed." Trini said with a grin on her face. What have you told them so far?"

Kim grinned impishly at her oldest friend. "The part where Tommy got the white tiger powers."

Jason flinched at the memory and Connor noticed. "I'm guessing that's not a favorite war story."

The first red ranger nodded ruefully. "Not my proudest moment, but I'm man enough to own up to my mistakes."

Kim smirked at her big brother. "Don't worry, I'll gloss over that part when I tell it."

"Thanks."

There was quiet in the kitchen except for the sound of baby cooing. When Kimberly looked up everyone was staring at her. "What?"

"Go ahead, Pinkie. We're ready to hear all about it." Trini said with a smirk.

"You were there, Trini. You could probably tell the story without me."

"Yeah, but we weren't. Tanya said as Tommy strode through the dining room looking proud as a peacock. "Yes, Beautiful. Do tell this part of the story. I wasn't there for some of it. I was busy being surrounded by a white light."

Kimberly groaned and then took a deep breath.

Well, it kind of happened quickly. One moment, Tommy and I were making out on by the lake and the next we were suddenly in the basement of the Command Center."

-Flashback-

"What's going on? Kimberly asked after Tommy helped her to her feet and then stood in front of her, blocking Alpha's view of her and giving her a chance to adjust her top.

"We have been secretly developing a new power coin for a new ranger." Alpha answered her.

"But I thought his powers were gone for good?" Kimberly said, coming out from behind him.

"No, not Tommy's powers, the green ranger's power are gone for good."

"I'm up for it, Zordon." Tommy said with a confident voice. "I don't like the idea of Kim fighting Zedd without me. I'm all ears."

"I AM PLEASED TO HEAR YOU SAY THAT. ALPHA WILL BEGIN THE SCAN WHEN YOU ARE READY. KIMBERLY, I KNOW YOU WANT TO STAY WITH TOMMY, BUT YOU ARE STILL A POWER RANGER, YOU MUST GO AND KEEP AN EYE ON ANGEL GROVE. IT WOULD BE VERY SURPRISING IF LORD ZEDD DOESN'T TAKE ADVANTAGE OF OUR TEMPORARY LEAVE OF ABSENCE TO LAUNCH AN ATTACK. IF HE DOES ATTACK, IT WILL BE UP TO YOU TO KEEP THE FOCUS THERE AND NOT ON WHAT WE ARE WORKING ON."

"Ok Zordon."

Tommy held out his hand to her and drew her into his arms. Hugging her tightly he whispered in her ear.

"I promise that we'll finish our little love fest later. You can count on it."

"Um, Zordon, I'm not exactly in appropriate clothing. They will know something is up if I show up in my bikini."

"Not to worry, Kimberly. I teleported your duffle bag with you." Alpha said, handing her the duffle bag.

"WHEN YOU ARE DONE, HE WILL TELEPORT YOU TO THE YOUTH CENTER. PLEASE REMEMBER THAT THE SECRET MUST BE MAINTAINED IF THIS PLAN IS TO SUCCEED."

Kimberly nodded and turned to Tommy, kissing him one more time. A moment later, she walked away to change into more appropriate attire.

-End flashback-

"Thankfully, for the most part, keeping things a secret was easier than I thought. Especially when Zedd was involved. He attacked Angel Grove with a monster called the Scarlet Sentinel. We spent the afternoon battling it and he didn't go easy on us."

Kimberly paused and addressed her friends. "For what it's worth, it was really hard to play dumb especially when I was the only that knew the truth, but Zordon was adamant that I keep things under wraps."

"Hey, we understand now." Trini said. "If I'm being honest, it should have sent up red flags when you squeaked at the news that we were getting a new ranger."

Kimberly grinned at her friend. "Yeah, I couldn't help myself. But things got more difficult when Jason started pressing me for information."

-Flash back-

"But why couldn't Tommy get these powers?" Jason asked. "He's already one of us."

Kimberly bit her lip but stayed quiet; Jason looked at her. He'd really expected her to pipe up at the mention of her boyfriend's name. Instead, Kim deliberately kept her eyes on her shoes.

"Kimberly, it's not like you to be keeping secrets from me, what's really going on? Is Tommy the new power ranger?"

She only shrugged her shoulders. "I don't know. Zordon hasn't spoken to either of us about it."

Jason was unconvinced. "So, where is Tommy if he's not in the command center. Come on, I know Tommy wouldn't keep something like this from you."

Kimberly felt eyes on her and saw that the others had gathered around her. She was cornered, and she knew it…so she let the cat out of the bag.

"Look, Tommy is out buying us condoms. We've been doing it so much that he needed to replenish our stash, I didn't want to say anything because the subject of our extracurricular activities is a private matter."

Jason's face was unreadable. "You two have been getting it on this whole time? I really didn't want to know that."

Kimberly stood her ground with her hands on her hips. "Well, then you shouldn't have asked. Yes, Tommy and I are having sex and we are happy to keep doing so. I didn't even want to tell you because it is none of your business, but you just had to keep pressing me for information. Are you satisfied now?"

Jason backed up a few steps under Kimberly's angry glare. "I'm sorry, I'll leave you guys alone okay?"

Thankfully, the moment was interrupted by Zordon and Alpha who ordered them to return to the command center.

-End flashback-

"God, that was such an awkward moment when Tommy was revealed." Jason said when Kimberly paused in her story telling.

"Yeah, I noticed." Tommy interjected. "But it was even more awkward when Zordon announced that I was to be the new leader of the rangers. That was something I didn't know about. I'd always considered Jason to be the leader. I would have been perfectly happy to stay on as the sixth ranger. But, Zordon was the mentor so I didn't say anything as I received Saba. I kept expecting Jason to put up a fight about it. I was ready for it when it happened; after we destroyed the monster, it happened."

-Flashback-

"You might as well let it out, Jason. Ever since we left the command center you've got the look of someone ready to commit murder."

"What is there to say? This whole time I've been worried about you and you've been getting nice and cozy with my little sister and getting it on with her."

Tommy looked like a deer caught in the headlights.

He glanced at Kimberly, "I'm assuming you had a good reason for telling him something so private?

Kimberly nodded. "Please don't be angry, Tommy. He was pressing me for information about your whereabouts. He'd already figured out that you were the new ranger and I was desperate to distract him. Your life depended on it and I didn't know what else to do."

Tommy wrapped Kimberly in his arms and pressed a kiss to her forehead. "It's okay, I'm not happy about this, but I understand it."

Then he looked at Jason. "You shouldn't have cornered Kimberly like that. Her orders came from Zordon and she and I are in a consensual relationship. What we do has no bearing on this team or the safety of Angel Grove. We're almost adults and this is the 90's; we are being careful- is that good enough for you?"

Jason and Tommy stared each other in the eye for several moments, locked in a silent battle of wills.

Finally, Jason lowered his eyes. "No matter what I say, it's not gonna make a difference."

Tommy shook his head. "No, this is our decision and our life that we're living together. But, you have my oath that I'm one hundred percent committed to her. I'm not going anywhere."

"I'm holding you to that. You hurt her, and I'll have your head on a spike."

Tommy glowered at him. "Never. I'll die before I let that happen. But if you don't believe me, then fight me now. I'll even let you take the first swing."

-End flashback-

"So, what happened?" asked Connor.

"I swung at him." Jason said simply. "We had an epic wrestling match and I'm pretty sure our DNA is all over the park. Once that was over, we never fought about it ever again. During that time, up until we were selected to participate in the peace conferences, we learned to share the responsibility of leading the team.

Tommy nodded and added, "I would never have admitted it then, but I did learn a lot from that time and it prepared me to be the leader when Rocky, Aisha, and Adam joined the team."

"Yeah, too bad those lessons didn't help when you fell for Zedd's tricks and ended up kidnapped during that Halloween." Jason said offhandedly.

Tommy glared at him. "Hey, nobody's perfect. It's hard to tell who is who, especially when everyone is wearing a mask; Power Ranger costumes were all the rage back then. It's also why I was so supportive when masks were banned the next year."

"We both learned from that experience." Kim said piping up. "During that next year, Billy and I worked on creating a unique brand of Halloween themed wristbands that glowed under a UV light. To keep Zedd or anyone else from being able to replicate it, the UV pattern was kept secret that only the power rangers knew of. We never had that problem again."

"I also learned to communicate better with my girlfriend. I have to admit that if I had asked Kimberly to confirm that they were the right group of kids, I might never have been kidnapped and Zedds plan would have failed."

"Or he might have just kidnapped you outright." Kimberly reminded him. Tommy pecked her lips and then looked up at their audience. "Out of all of us, it was me he hated the most. I was inwardly cheering when the Machine Empire chased them out. At least Mondo didn't have it out for me…he was the type that went after everyone. I really didn't relax until the Z-wave happened. By then, we were back into civilian life and working on making this manor a home."

The Nest

Later that evening

Kimberly reclined in the deluxe tub that she had picked out with Tommy. It was big enough for the both of them, and sturdy enough to withstand her husband's lusty hunger for her. Tonight, was no different.

Once everyone had turned in for the night, they had retreated to this private sanctuary and Kimberly had drawn him a bath; he had gotten in without much urging from his wife. Now, he sat in front of her and groaned softly as she massaged his back and shoulders. This was something she was used to doing over the years. When the time came for him to become the mentor to the Dino Thunder team, this routine had become his solace.

Kimberly had joined him in battle once in a while, though she only had her ninjetti powers, but even then, it was mostly him that needed soothing. Though he was in good shape, he hadn't been able to do a lot of working out on the island. After that first battle in Reefside, he'd confessed to her that he wasn't physically ready to take on another villain. When Tommy started amping up his workout, they'd spent more and more time in the hot tub soothing his sore muscle rather than actually making love.

However, tonight, it was more about soothing his ego than his muscles. As Kimberly's hands stroked his muscles he groaned softly. "Your hands are magic, Beautiful."

Kimberly smirked. "Yeah, you said that earlier too. But I'm guessing it's not my hands that you need. I know that you hate Jason for his comment earlier."

"Ancient history Kimberly. I made a mistake and I paid for it plain and simple. I really should have checked with you first. I don't know what I would have done if you and Billy hadn't come to my rescue." Tommy paused. If I never hear rap music again, it'll be too soon."

Kim chuckled and kissed his shoulder. "I'll always come to your rescue. Weather it's from giant monsters or irritating team mates named Jason."

Tommy snorted at her comment but then reached around and squeezed his wife's hands. I'm good now, Kim; You can give those talented hands a rest."

Kimberly smiled and wrapped her arms around his neck, hugging him from behind. "This water's getting a little chilly. How about we go get warm in bed." Tommy nodded and got up being careful not to spill too much water onto the rug. After wrapping the towel around himself, he held out another one for his mate.

Minutes later, they were spooning in bed. Kimberly loved feeling his arms around her and she giggled softly remembering their first night in the manor. Tommy had deliberately chosen the bedroom closest to Jason and Trini's. That night when they'd had sex, they'd made as much noise as they could. It was revenge in it's purest form. Jason had taken it all in stride after giving Tommy a really evil look. Two mornings later, he'd all but thrown the Angel Grove yellow pages at him and opened it to the construction page.

Tommy had laughed evilly and within a month, construction had begun on the nest they now slept in.

In the darkness, she let loose her own version of the 'Evil laugh.'

Beautiful? What brought that on?"

Just thinking of that first night in the manor.

A moment later, his evil laugh echoed her own.
