Trini's room is full of yellow sun flowers. There are two twin size bed. She has two dressers and on her sits an 18inch colored TV. On one bed are stuffed animals and a hamburger telephone. She walks over to her phone just as it rings. She quickly answers the phone
Trini:(cautiously)Hello
Kim:(softly)hey Trini
Trini: Hey Kim(sits down)(worried tone)how are you?
Kim:(softly)I'm fine! Why?
Trini: you(closes her eyes a little)you just don't seem you like yourself(opens her eyes)
Kim: you got that from just "hello"
Trini:(winces)yeah
Kim:(simply)oh(softly)so what have you been up to lately? Haven't talked to you since last week.
Trini: same old same old(clears her throat)nothings changed. What about you? Has anything changed with you?(fidgets a little)I thought you would be in Angel Grove
Kim:(annoyed tone)Who says I'm not in Angel Grove now?
Trini: I mean if you were…. I would think I would've heard something from the guys. Especially Tommy. You always call when he is around(silence hits them)
Kim:(barely above a whisper)who told you?
Trini:(simply)Jason
Kim:(groans)GOD
Trini: Zach told Jason and Adam told Zach….
Kim:(loudly)wait What? How does Adam know….
Trini: for some reason Tommy let Adam read off the letter and then he read the rest. Zach said the whole team was around during the reading of the letter
Kim:(mumbles)great! They must think I'm some type of monster. Especially after the things I put in it
Trini: Who cares what they think?!(softly)Kim what happened? You were so happy to see him last week.
Kim:(mumbles)I don't know Tree
Trini: are you under a spell or something?(Kim gives her a genuine chuckle which makes her smile)
Kim: No! I'm not I promise(sighs)I know this may sound crazy but one day I just woke up and I was just super depressed about not having Tommy with me and not being able to see him. I hadn't heard from him in three days neither(mumbles)I just got tired of it
Trini: then why didn't you call me! We could've...
Kim:(cuts her off)Tree it wasn't your job to make me feel validated in my relationship(Trini simply nods) Tommy knew how I felt. I told him two months ago during spring break…that long distance is just(sighs)hard. I thought I could do it. I love Tommy so much….that it hurts(sniffs)but love is not supposed to hurt
Trini:(softly)Kimberly I am so sorry!(she hears Kim sniff a couple of times)
Kim:(shaky voice)it was the hardest thing I ever had to do! I didn't want to do it but my heart needed it.
Trini: I understand Kim!(her eyes tear up a little)In due time your heart will heal
Kim: I hope he will forgive me(Trini hears Kim blow her noses)I hope his heart will heal too! I hate that I even had to break it.
Trini: Has Tommy tried to call you?
Kim: No(softly)and he is not….especially after what I said
Trini: What did you tell him?
Kim: that I met someone else
Trini:(shocked)Kimberly!
Kim:(sighs)I know!
Trini: this is dumb for me to ask(winces)but is there?
Kim:(shocked)of course not! Trini Kwan how could you even ask that?
Trini: I mean you were all excited about seeing Tommy last week, then you end up not seeing him and you break up with him a week later. Everything just moved too fast.
Kim:(firmly)there is nobody else Trini(softly)I swear on everything that I love.
Trini: ok I believe you(silence hits them again)But I can understand waking up and the person you thought you would probably marry wasn't it
Kim:(softly)What do you mean?
Trini: I broke up with(winces) Larry three weeks ago (Kim soon starts laughing a hardy laugh)(surprised) what is so funny?
Kim:(laughs)nothing! I just didn't expect you and Larry to last 7months
Trini:(shocked)Kimberly Hart!
Kim: I'm sorry but(laughs)come on! I know you lost your virginity to him(Trini sighs and then smiles)and you think it's going to be forever. But unfortunately it doesn't end up that way(mumbles)trust me
Trini: I should being saying "trust me" first(laughs)I broke up with my "first" first!(Kim giggles a little)I thought you liked Larry?
Kim: I do like Larry! Or did?(firm tone)did he do something to you?
Trini: No! I mean he was great….he is great. It's just like you! I woke up one day…
Kim:(sighs)Yeah! How did he take it?
Trini: not good! He accused me of cheating
Kim: that's what they always do! Let me guess he accused you of cheating with Jason?
Trini:(shocked)how did you know?!
Kim: Just a wild guess! No offense Trini he wasn't for you. He was so intense about his studies and had to schedule fun with you(dull tone)you deserve much more than that
Trini: Jeez(stands and goes over to her closet)thanks Kimberly
Kim: I didn't mean anything by it!(Trini pulls out some ripped up blue jeans)so how is Larry taking it now?
Trini: we(puts the phone down and on speaker)we are better(starts undressing)
Kim: That's good(sweetly)Why didn't you tell me that you broke up with him? I spoke with you twice since you broke up with him.
Trini: I don't know(shrugs)didn't think it was a big deal(puts on the new pants)
Kim: Oh you were definitely done dating him. Breaking up with your "first" is a big deal. Look how I am right now. Even though you can't see me. My emotions are on a roller coaster.
Trini:(worried)Kim
Kim:(sweetly)Trini I'm better now that I'm talking to you(Trini smiles and hangs her skirt in the closet) Besides this is about you! Have you thought about anyone else? Seeing anybody new?
Trini: I've only been single for 3weeks Kim(starts fixing her hair)
Kim: mm-hmm ok!(sings)so where are you headed? I'm on speaker phone either one you're studying or two you're on your way out!
Trini: going out with Jason…
Kim:(excited) hmm?(Trini raises her eyebrow up at the phone)
Trini: and Zach
Kim:(disappointed)Oh!
Trini: What was that "Oh" for?
Kim: I'm feeling a little frisky today! So why not? When are you and Jason going on a date?(Trini quickly takes the phone off speaker and answers)
Trini:(loudly)Kimberly
Kim:(mocks)Trini! He likes you…it's obvious and you are totally feeling him
Trini: Kimberly Hart! I'm not doing this with you(there is a knock on the door)come in(Jason opens the door and Trini turns to it)hey Jason(to Kim)not a word(Jason hears Kim laugh)
Jason: Hey(smiles)Zach is about to eat his hand out here
Trini:(laughs)sorry! I'm coming
Jason:(mouths)is she ok?(Trini nods)ok I'll see you out there(Jason walks out and closes the door)
Trini: Hey Kim I have to go! Can I call you when I get back from dinner?
Kim: that's fine! Coach doesn't have me practicing today.
Trini:(worried)Why?
Kim: He is giving us time to relax our bodies! Before the tournament(Trini supply nods)Hey Trini before you go, can you do me a favor?
Trini: anything
Kim: If anyone ask, Can you please not tell them that "there is nobody else"?!
Trini:(shocked)Kim?
Kim: I know, I seem like the bad guy and it's crazy that I would I continue to be. But I just have to stick with my gut on this one. I hope you understand?
Trini: I don't Kim(Kim sighs)but I will abide by your wishes! And your secret is safe with me
Kim: thanks Trini! I love you
Trini: I love you so much Kim!(matter of factly) And whatever is really going on…I'm here for you
Kim: I know and I to you(softly)but nothing is going on Tree trust me(Trini sighs)well you better go before Zach eats his finger(laughs) off
Trini: I believe it was his hand(they laugh)talk to you later Kim
Kim: bye Tree(they hang up and Trini slowly puts down the phone. Trini starts to pace back and forth. She rubs the back of her neck and sighs)
Trini: ok(walks over to her closet and pulls out a box. She doesn't notice that Zach and Jason have walked in. Trini walks over to her bed, opens the box and starts digging in it)
Zach: Trini?(she turns to them and holds up the communicator)oh boy(rubs his hands together)time for a trip to Florida I presume?(Jason closes the door and locks it)
Trini: She needs us(Jason nods. He and Zach walk over to her as she presses the button)come in Zordon
Zordon: Yes Yellow Ranger(they smile)
Trini: Zordon! It is so good to hear your voice
Zordon: Like wise, My dear one! How can I help you?
Trini: I know this may sound crazy! But I think Kimberly needs me right now. I feel like she needs support
Zordon: it is not crazy! You are right I am sensing a difference in her energy! I heard about the break up between Tommy and Kimberly!
Zach: Now, why doesn't that surprise me?(Jason punches him)hey
Zordon: I assume that was my Black and Red Ranger?
Zach:(happily)hey Zordon!
Jason: Hello Zordon
Zordon: All is planned for you to come to Angel Grove tomorrow Jason?
Jason: Wouldn't miss it for the world!
Zordon: I wish all of you could come
Zach: It's ok Zordon(smiles)we understand our mission is here
Trini: But can our mission be in Florida right now?! I know the new Rangers are getting Tommy out of his funk. But who is there for Kimberly? I know she caused the heartache! But still she doesn't deserve to be going through this alone. We are a team and family
Zordon: Very well Yellow Ranger(Trini sighs in relief)but this stays between us
Jason: of course! You have our word
Zordon: Get ready for Teleportation(they nod at each other and hold hands)and tell Kimberly that I am here for as well.
Trini: We will Zordon(Zordon teleports them out)
In Florida, Kim is laying in her bed looking up at the ceiling. Beside her bed on the floor is a taped up box that says "Tommy". Kim is laying in all black pajama's and her hair looks like it hasn't been brushed in days.(We know by now that Kim has lost her baby and this is why she broke up with Tommy. Please read if you haven't "Not So Bad, The Second time Around). Kim sighs a deep sigh before turning to look at the box. Her eyes water a little but she quickly wipes them when she hears a knock.
Kim: who could that be?(sits up and looks around)maybe if I don't answer they will go away(but much to her dismay there is another knock)(calls)who is it?(there is a knock again)(groans)mm(looks at her roommate's side of the room which is empty)only if she was here(there is another knock)(calls)if you don't say who it is I'm not answering(walks over to the door while smoothing out her hair)
Phony Accent: Coach Schmidt(Kim makes a face)
Kim: Yeah right!(crosses her arms)
Phony Accent: I mean flower delivery from Coach Schmidt
Kim: hmm(opens the door and nearly passes out)(squeals)oh my gosh(covers her mouth and jumps up and down when she sees Trini, Jason and Zach standing there)
Jason: ok we lied about the flowers (smiles)hope you don't mind
Zach: I really need to work on my Coach Smith Impersonation(they laugh)
Kim: Get in here(leads them in and closes the door)I can't believe you guys are here!(rushes over and hugs them. They hold on to her for awhile. Kim pulls away in tears)(crying)what are you doing here?
Zach: come here girl(pulls her in a side ways hug and lays on her head as she lays on his shoulder)
Trini: We just(tears come in her eyes)knew you needed us! As hard as this is on all of us because we love you and Tommy. We just couldn't let you(tears come down her eyes and she pauses. Jason puts a comforting hand on her shoulder)I can't let you go through this alone(Kim nods as tears come down her eyes)Even though you broke up with him. I know(points to Kim's heart)I know that it's killing you inside. I couldn't sit there and let any guilt, disappointment or pain rip you up inside(Kim cries harder)because Kimberly you did what was best for you in the long run. You did what was healthy for your heart. Don't ever let anyone tell you different ok? You are the bravest person I know(Kim nods and pulls away from Zach. Soon her and Trini are in a huge crying embrace. Jason steps over by Zach)
Zach:(mumbles)Do you think we can get Kim to get dressed so we can eat?(Jason shrugs. Soon a yellow glow comes in the room)
Jason: incoming(everyone looks and Trini and Kim quickly pull apart. There stands 17year Aisha wearing tan shorts and a taint top)
Zach: Whoa! If it isn't The lion king?(Aisha looks around confused)
Trini:(happily)Aisha!
Aisha: Make that the Lion Queen(Zach laughs)(happily)hey guys! What am I(pauses when she sees Kim's puffy eyes)(worried)what's going on?(looks at everyone who says nothing)Zordon hit me up and said Kim needed me(walks over to her and takes her hand)Kim what's wrong?(Kim sighs and looks at a box on the floor. Everyone looks down and notices the name on it)why does the box say(pauses and looks at Kim. Everyone looks at her)when?
Kim: sometime this week(Aisha gives her a confused look)it was through a letter
Aisha: You?(Kim simply nods)has he?
Kim: No
Aisha: So it's….
Kim: a done(sighs)deal
Aisha:(sighs)ok(Kim nods and Aisha hugs her)I love you! Do you know that?
Kim: I love you too Sha!
Aisha: and everything is going to be ok! Woman and Men do this everyday. You know you're not breaking some law or anything?(Trini smiles)
Kim:(laughs)I know(squeezes her tighter)thank you for that. You always know what to say to make me laugh(kisses her cheek and they pull away)
Aisha: no problem! It's my job(happily)hey everyone(she hugs everyone and they happily accept it and give one back)
Jason: So Zordon teleported you here?!
Aisha: to my surprise! I didn't think the old watch still worked! Well(sits on the bed)I can go missing for a good couple of days and no one will notice. What do you guys have plan?
Zach:(loudly)dinner hopefully
Kim: Zach it's almost lunch
Zach: Dinner, Lunch, Breakfast…it doesn't matter. I'm starving
Aisha: hello Rocky is that you?(they laugh)
Kim: Let me just wash real quick(Zach moans and falls on the bed by Aisha who laughs)(loudly)it is going to be real quick Zach(goes to the other side of the bed and pulls out a candy bowl)here(walks over to him and gives it to him)you can have whatever you want. Have it all(he sits up and takes it)come on ladies help me get ready?
Trini: like the good old days(helps Aisha up)I'll choose the clothes.
Aisha: I have your hair(the ladies head to the bathroom or the walk in closet. Jason sighs and sits next to Zach. Zach has a frown on his face while eating chocolate. Jason smirks at him and shrugs)
Jason: Got any Reese's?(Zach throws him one)thanks!
Here is chapter two, told you it was coming fast. I know my Ranger time is off a little. But hey that's what makes an awesome fan fiction. Thanks for reading~RT
