Evil Green Ranger again? Say it isn't so!
Oh but it is!
Thank you everyone who has been reading, reviewing and putting me in their favorites. I've been enjoying writing this and think I may try more once this is over with.
Just wanted to let you guys know that I have only ever seen MMPR. I've recently been re-watching them as I have no life so if there is something that doesn't match the show, it's because of that. And for the record, I am a Tommy/Kat hater. The two of them together makes my skin crawl for some reason. The same goes with Kim/Jason. Though, I do love the two of them having a close friendship. I try my best to not bash Kat in this though. :)
As always, I don't own Power Rangers or whatever music these guys listen to.
Enjoy!
Once again, I found myself connected to the monitors in the medical bay. I had no real serious injuries though, just a small cut on the forehead and bruised ribs. Billy had been more concerned about the stress Tommy had caused on my spine than anything else. He did a bio-scan to be sure. It showed that my back was fine for the most part aside from my previous injury. I didn't need to be placed in the chamber for my injuries thankfully.
While Billy completed his exam of me, I filled everyone in on what had happened after Tommy arrived at the hotel. I skipped the portion of us being alone in the room, not wanting them to know we were involved again. But I did tell them about the whole floor looking like the dark dimension, the weird fog and the unusual throne. I also showed them the pictures I had taken, Billy uploading them into the computer system. He said from them, he could make a complete map of the area for us to use. Then they asked about Tommy changing.
I couldn't explain it as painfully as it felt to think about. Tommy had been right next to me and then all of a sudden, he was different. I couldn't quite figure out how he moved so quickly. It was like watching television and the camera angle changes too fast. How could that be possible? Tommy's harsh words rattled in my mind as I relived what happened with everyone. He had been so cruel. I thought about what he had said before. Being under the spell brought out real emotions and thoughts he was having. Could he be actually feeling this way underneath it all? What was this spell? Rosita had come nowhere close to us when we obtained the dino gems. How was she controlling Tommy now? Everything Rita had used before had been destroyed or taken care of to prevent this from happening again. Now here we are, twenty years later. A horrible gut-wrenching feeling was present in the pit of my stomach and it made me ill to think about him there, under her control.
While I told everyone about what happened, Alpha and Zordon did their best to locate Tommy. From what they could tell, he wasn't at the hotel any more. His scans were negative in the building and they could not track his communicator since it had been disabled. Alpha was monitoring the Dragonzord to ensure it hasn't moved and placed a 24/7 outreach radar in case Tommy came back online. Even though Aisha and Trini tried their best to make me try to be optimistic, I had little faith that Alpha was going to find Tommy. We had little to go on in regards with Rosita but Tommy himself had said it was a trap. She knew we were coming and she had her sights set on Tommy all along. That's why she didn't fight to have him and me check in again. She needed us in the building to make her plan work. We had walked right into it without even blinking.
"So, Tommy is under a spell again?" Zack asked, leaning against the wall in the medical bay. I was sitting on the edge of the middle bed, everyone grouped around me. I shrugged, feeling exhausted.
"I'm not sure. It was like he was getting attacked from the inside out. He kept holding his head and screaming." I said, looking at my lap. Rocky casted a glance at Jason who nodded.
"We will figure out how to get Tommy back but in the meantime, we need a new strategy. Tommy knew about our plans and he's more than likely told Rosita all about it. We'll need a new plan to take care of her. If we take her out, we should break any hold she has on Tommy." Jason said. The group collectively nodded.
"With Tommy on her side, she'll have a skilled fighter and a Power Ranger. There's no telling what she will use him for. And now she knows that the whole team is here." Rocky said.
"Affirmative." Billy said, walking over from his place by the computer. "Kim is in full health now. We will all be able to fight now that the Zords are acting a full capacity."
"Guys, I think speed is our best bet. There's no telling what could happen now." Aisha expressed with a solemn tone in her voice.
"We can't just jump into this though." Zack replied. "We need to come up with a plan. Any ideas?"
"Well, what happened last time Tommy was under someone else's control?" Rocky asked. I sighed.
"He came to the Command Center and tried to kill Zordon." I whispered. "And then he came after the rest of us." Trini gave me a sympathetic smile, placing a hand on my shoulder.
"We'll get him back, Kim. Tommy beat this before and he can do this again. We'll help him like we did before."
"Trini's right." Jason said, smiling at me with a reassuring nod. "He's a pain in the ass anyway. No way Rosita is going to want to deal with him that long for sure." He turned to the rest of the group. "I think our best move right now is to try and draw Rosita out. We'll have some of us go to the hotel and try to convince her to fight. Then we can lead her out in this direction and finish her."
"Sounds like a plan." Rocky replied, nodding.
"Rocky, you, Aisha and Zach will head down to the hotel. Stick to the roof because we know that's where her censors are. You're bound to make someone come out. Once you do, head out to the desert. Kim and Billy will meet you there with the Zords and the Power Blaster."
"Okay." The three assigned Rangers nodded before teleporting out of the room. Jason faced Trini, Billy and me.
"You okay to fight, Kim?" He asked.
"Yeah. I'm fine."
"I'm going to need you to keep your head in the game. I know you're worried about Tommy but we have all of angel Grove to think about right now. I promise once we stop Rosita, we will get him back." I nodded, frowning. I couldn't believe I was reliving this again. It was like twenty years hadn't passed at all.
"I'll energizing the Zords." Billy said before walking out of the medical bay. Once the door was closed, Jason sighed.
"I hate this. I hated when Tommy was under Rita's spell. He was one of the worst enemies we fought." He said.
"That he was. We know how he fights though. It's the same Tommy we all know and love. We just need to find a way to break this spell." Trini replied, rubbing Jason's back.
"I can't help but feel he was trying to tell me something before he teleported me back to the Command Center." I said, looking up at them both. "For a brief moment, he was able to break out of the spell when he was about to snap me in half. He kept saying to tell someone something but he couldn't get it out."
"What did he say?" Jason asked, seeming concerned.
"'Tell them Gol?'" I replied, frowning. "I have no clue what that could mean though."
