The next day, Trini, Zach, Kim and Aisha are standing in front of Jason who is holding on to his suitcase. They look a little sad and he gives them a reassuring smile.
Jason: I'll be back before you know it guys!
Zach: We know (mumbles)I'm just mad Zordon didn't choose me(Trini nudges him)
Jason: I wish you could all go with me(the clock chimes and it is two AM)I better go
Aisha: Safe Travels(goes over and hugs him)I'll try to get Zordon to teleport me over when you get back in town.
Jason: sounds good(they let go)when are you coming back to America?
Aisha: all works out the beginning of the year(steps away)so a couple of weeks after you(Kim steps up next and they share a smile)
Kim: Stay safe big head(they hug each other)
Jason: I will!
Kim: watch out for everyone
Jason: I'll let you know how he is(Kim simply nods)
Kim: Make sure you keep him uplifted(Jason nods and Kim pulls away)thanks Jas(they look at each other and Zach comes up next and daps him up)
Zach: I'll see you soon! Stay out of trouble….and watch out for Angela
Jason: you know it(they smile and Jason looks at the last person in the room. The last person who he has always had a hard time say goodbye too)Tree
Trini: yup(walks over and they hug each other. Instead of finding her upper body his hands find the small of her back. Trini closes her eyes in the embrace)hurry back Red
Jason: You got it! I will(softly)I will miss you
Trini: I'm going to miss you too!(they stand there holding each other. Kim and the others look between each other with a smile on their faces. Zach winks at them)
Zach: you know(Trini opens her eyes)they say distance makes the heart grow founder(Trini and Jason quickly pull away and look at Zach. Jason turns as red as his shirt. Trini gives him an annoyed look. Aisha and Kimberly giggle)I'm just saying….you leaving will be good for all of us
Jason: Yeah! Yeah(his watch beeps and they become silent. Jason presses the button)Yes Zordon
Zordon: Are you ready for Teleportation?
Jason: Yes Zordon
Zordon: I'm going to teleport you to the desert! Tommy will meet you there(Aisha takes Kim's hand knowing it still hurts. Kim gives her hand a good squeeze and smiles at Jason who gives her a worried look)I'll transfer your bags home
Jason: thanks Zordon
Zordon: Hello Rangers
Rangers:(happily)Hey Zordon
Zordon: Teleporting now(Jason waves at them and they wave back as he disappears in a red light. Trini sighs and Zach walks over to her)
Zach: Don't worry Trini(puts a hand on her shoulder)he'll be back before you know!(Trini nods)well we haven't eaten in awhile…lets get some grub(winces) but Kim and Aisha have to leave.
Aisha: I could always eat Zach!(confused)but It's two in the morning(Trini and Zach turn to them)
Trini: We have a 24hour cafeteria
Zach: and they have Ice Cream
Kim: that's all you have to say(lets go of Aisha and grabs Zach)lead the way(pulls him towards the door. Zach opens the door)thank you(they walk out the room. Trini and Aisha giggle and follow behind while chatting)
Jason teleports in the middle of "no where". It is sunny and hot outside. There is nothing out there but boulders and birds flying in the air.
Jason: great(looks around)where is everybody?(mumbles)I can't believe I'm stranded in the desert(sighs and starts walking)
Tommy: hey where are you going?(Jason turns around and sees Tommy standing there with a smile)the Command Center is that way(Tommy walks over to him)
Jason: I thought you forgot about me?
Tommy: Never! I couldn't forget my best friend(they hug each other)I missed you man
Jason: like wise(they pull away)you look good!
Tommy: Yeah! So do you(holds up a jacket, and bandanna and glasses)Here!
Jason: Now I can look even better?(Tommy laughs)what is this for?
Tommy:(frowns)the machine empire knows about the shift in power(Jason starts putting on her clothes) They are coming for you man!
Jason: When aren't they?(puts on the bandanna and sun glasses)well we better get to the command center before they lock on us
Tommy: Yeah(they start walking)
Jason: Does the team know I'm coming back?
Tommy: No! Zordon hasn't said anything!(chuckles) You know him and his secrets?
Jason:(laughs)yeah(clears his throat)I guess that's why I wasn't teleported to the Command Center
Tommy: that's actually a good assumption(they laugh)
Jason: So how are you really man?(they look at each other and Tommy puts his hands in his pocket and his shoulders slump over)
Tommy: You know?(looks at Jason who frowns his brow)of course you do? Who told you?
Jason: Does it matter?(Tommy looks ahead)
Tommy: Did you know she was going to break up with me?
Jason: No it was definitely a shock! If I knew she was going to do it…I love Kimberly like a sister but I would've given you the heads up(Tommy nods)
Tommy: Have you spoken to her?
Jason: Yeah I have(silence hits them)She is hurt because she knows that she hurt you(sighs)she still loves you Tommy there is no doubt in that
Tommy:(angrily)then why break up with me in the first place? Why find somebody else and rip out my insides? If she loves me why would she do this? Why didn't she just call me and would could've talked about it?(kicks a rock)
Jason: I don't know man!(slowly) Maybe you should just call and ask her!
Tommy:(angrily) I'm not calling to ask her anything! I am done chasing Kimberly! I'm done caring about her. I'm done with Kimberly period(silence hits them)
Jason: Tommy it's still a fresh! And you're hurting I know(softly)but watch what you say! You may regret it in the long run….especially if something happens to Kimberly tomorrow(silence hits them again)
Tommy: your right(sighs)I'm sorry! I'm just so angry with her. I need sometime…
Jason: Well don't you worry! I'm here friend(taps his shoulder)to help you have a good time and not think about what happened. I'm not going to even mention her name or anything about her(Tommy chuckles a little)I'm here for you my friend(Tommy now smiles)
Tommy: thanks Jas(Jason takes his hand down)so Jas I have a question?
Jason: what's up?(they see the command center ahead)(smiles)there it is my second home(looks at Tommy)come on(they start walking quickly)so what did you have to ask me?
Tommy: When I hugged you I smelled a certain perfume!(Jason looks at him)it smelled like Trini!(smiles)so are you are Trini?(before Jason can say anything a energy ball flies down and they get thrown to the grown)WHOA!
Jason: What the hell(stands up)was that?(Tommy stands up)
Tommy: the Empire! They are waiting for us! Come on….we are 100meters out before Zordon can teleport us in(they rush towards the command Center)
