Tommy noticed Aisha was walking over to him and he broke out in and run and ran as far he could from them. Aisha watched him run until he was out of sight. "I can't understand why Tommy would run away like that-"

"-for the one millionth time, that isn't Tommy!" Kimberly yelled as she tripped and fell face first into a mud puddle. She got up and wiped her face. "Just great I'm covered in mud and we still haven't found Tommy."

"Kim, let me ask you something," Aisha said as they were walking through the park. "What would you do if that was really Tommy?"

"What do you mean?"

The wind picked up and it blew Kimberly's umbrella right out of her hand. Her umbrella flew through the sky and crashed into a try. She had might as well kiss that umbrella good bye. It was full of holes and the metal stretchers were broken. "Just listen to me for a second. Okay?" Aisha started trying to keep her hood up. "I'm sure that person heard what you said about their appearance. Let's say that was Tommy and he heard what you said. I'm sure that person is embarrassed about their appearance. Why do you love Tommy? Is it because he's nice looking or is it because of who he is inside?"

"He's the prefect boy. he's sweet, kind, caring, and is a true friend. I love him, and I don't care what he looks like," Kimberly answered spitting mud out of her mouth. "It's just hard for to even imagine thinking that Tommy would look that way."

"Like I said before, Tommy wouldn't choose to look that way. But, it is possible that the people who kidnapped could have given him a haircut and dyed his they would have to do is put him to sleep or restrain him-"

"-Tommy, could fight someone off," Kimberly interrupted as a bird flew by and white stuff came flying down at fast pace landing in Kimberly's hair. "Yuck, I've got bird poop in my hair."

"Kim, see what I mean," Aisha continued. "You didn't choose for this to happen, but you just happened to be under the bird. Maybe there was more than one person who kidnapped him. If there was more than one person involved, they'd have a better chance of over powering him."

"You do a have a point," she confessed as they continued to walk back to the Campbell's house. "But, if it was Tommy, why didn't he come and tell me it was him?"

"Probably because he wouldn't want you to see him in that shape or maybe he heard what you said, and it hurt his feelings," Aisha bravely said watching her hang her head. "Or it could have been a little bit of both. I remember hearing from Billy that Tommy told him that girls had broken up with him because they didn't think he was good looking."

"He never told me that!" Kimberly gasped with her eyes feeling up with tears. "All he said was that previous relationships didn't work out because the other girls were interested in someone else and cheat on him."

"If you just happened to find out it was Tommy and he told it was him, what would you do?"

"Tell him that I love him and how I was glad to see that he was okay. I'd take him to a beautician and pay him to get a haircut," she addressed walking through the Campbell's door. "I'd also go him some warmer clothes to put on."


Meanwhile, Tommy was walking through the park. He was hurt over what he heard Kimberly say and it made him even more afraid to tell him who he really was. What if she didn't want him looking like that? Before he could think of anything else, a pair of lips appeared in front of him. "Hello, Tommy!" greeted a pair of lips and they gave him a kiss. "I'm Hooker's Lips-"

"-why did you just kiss me?!" he demanded wiping he lip prints off his face.

"I was in the park and saw the yellow ranger recognized you," answered Hooker's Lips. "We can't have the Rangers or anyone else we know recognizing you. When I kissed you, it put a spell on you. All the people who know you won't recognize you. And the only way to reverse the spell is if you and your true love kiss or if you tell them who you really are. But, that will never happen because she didn't want to believe it's you."

The lips disappeared, and he continued to walk through the park. What was he going to do now? "Nice going, Tommy!" he scolded himself. "You didn't want anyone to recognize you and they won't be able to. What are you going to do now?"

An idea popped in his mind. He could enroll in Angel Grove high as Martin Pettis and maybe he could get to be friends with Kimberly. Maybe, she'd make friends with him as Martin and he could know if she truly still wanted him. His fingers were crossed that she would and when the time was right, he could kiss her and break the spell. He didn't have anywhere else to go and his parents were still on their trip, so he couldn't return home. He remembers what the man at the hot dog stand said and he walked to the good will store. The store was still open and the elderly looking man was standing at the desk.

"Hello, it's nice to see you again," greeted the man seeing Tommy come in. "What can I do for you?"

"First, I need some clothes and a place to stay," Tommy answered walking into the store. "I was wondering if I could stay here for a while, if it's okay."

"Sure, it's okay," smiled the elderly woman. She had light brown hair and looked beautiful. "We have enough clothes. Feel free to go somewhere and pick some clothes out. I'll fix you a hot meal and is there anything else I can do for you?"

"I could really use a haircut," he started walking closer to the desk. "My real name is Tommy Oliver and I am looking for a girl I love. I don't want her to see me like this. I don't think she'd take it too well. And I'm trying to hide from the people who captured me, so I'm going by Martin Pettis. My hair is also dyed."

"My name is Jamie and I used to be a beautician," informed the woman. She looked closer at Tommy's hair and noticed there was some brown hair showing. "I figure that you have brown hair instead of a blonde-"

"-how'd you know?"

"I can see some of your brown hair and I suspect that you may have washed your hair-"

"Just with water, I didn't have any shampoo."

Jamie opened a door and lead Tommy into a bathroom. "Feel free to take a shower in here," she stated getting out shower gel and shampoo. "I believe that the dye that was put in your hair was the kind that people use for Halloween. If it is, it will wash right out."

"I hope so," Tommy answered getting out a towel and a wash cloth. "I want to go back to being natural. When you give me my hair cut, I know you'll have to even it out. I'd like it to be short and I want it to be spiked."


The following morning, Tommy walked through the halls off Angel Grove High feeling like he was a new person. He was so relieved when he got out of the shower the night before and all the dye washed out. Tommy ran his hands through his new short spiky hair. Jamie had done a good with his hair cut and he was really pleased. He had learned that Jamie and her husband George were good friends with his parents. They had tried calling them the night before to let them know he was okay, but they didn't answer. He walked through the hall dressed in jeans, a black tee shirt, and a green and white plaid button down shirt. Inside his book bag was picture of him and Kimberly at the Sadie Hawkins dance. It turned out that George had found his green book bag at the good will shop when someone brought it in to be donated. The picture still happened to be inside his book bag.

He walked down the hall and saw a girl with Carmel hair standing at her locker. She was dressed in different shades of pink. Her shirt was almost the same color as a bright pink rose, but it was darker. The neck band, the cuffs, and the large stripe going down each sleeve was the exact shade of pink that Kimberly's ranger suit was. The girl had on a pair of bubble gum pink jogging pants with three light pink stripes going down each pant leg. As Tommy got closer, he noticed that it was Kimberly. But, she looked tired and worn out.

"I'm Martin Pettis?" Tommy lied taking a seat next to her on a bench. "Who are you?"

"I am Kimberly Hart," she yawned. " Sorry, if I look boyfriend was kidnapped and I'm really concerned. One of my friends and I were in the park looking for him and she said she saw him, but he didn't look the same anymore."

"Why didn't you go over to him?" Tommy questioned raising a brow putting a hand on her shoulder. "Where you afraid or something? How did he look different?"

Kimberly noticed his hand was on her shoulder and she slowly moved farther down the bench. "My boyfriend is tall, handsome, and very attractive. He's got the softest shoulder length brown hair there is," she started letting out another yawn and she rubbed her tired eyes. "But, this boy was dress in a flour sack, he had blonde hair. I know you won't believe me, but his hair cut looked terrible. The left side of his hair was at different length and he had bangs. On the right side his hair was chin length. The bottom part of his hair was light purple, and he had pink high lights. I guess the reason didn't go over to the boy was because I was afraid-"

"-afraid of what?"

"I guess I was afraid to even think Tommy would appear that way. He's strong and could defend himself. But, my friend said there could have been more people involved with his disappearance," she sighed hanging her head. "I mean if there was, they could have ganged up on him and restrained him. I found the last thing he had on his body hanging on a branch. And it was only a pair of purple speedo briefs. They were covered in dirt, blood, and they were torn."

"How bad where they tore?" Tommy asked. He was afraid to tell her it was him. All he wanted to do was wrap his arms around her and tell her it was him. But, he had so many things he wanted to know. Like why she didn't want to believe it was him and why she said he looked tacky. Would she think he was weak since he wasn't able to fight back to due the magic dust thrown on him? Would she believe him if when he told her that Ms. Kirk was really posing his great aunt who was murdered Jan's mother Rita? Would she still see him as the leader of power rangers? "Was he kidnapped in the park?"

"No, we were both had in school detention. Our teacher made us go down to her gym. Our legs were tied together, and we had to walk ten laps with our legs apart, run ten laps as the three-legged man, and swim laps in the pool. We had to wear speedo swimwear," she explained as they got up and headed to class. "I'll tell you more later, I have to get to class. My math teacher, Ms. Peterson is horrible, and I can't afford to be late."

He pulled out his schedule and showed it to her. "Looks like we have the same schedule," she smiled weakly.

"Could you tell me more about what happened?"

"I went to get something, and I was locked in a room, until my friends came to let me out," Kimberly lied. That wasn't the truth. But, she couldn't tell her that she was a power ranger either. And no one would believe that a pair of lips appeared out of nowhere and hypnotized her. "My friend and I searched for him in the park. When we found his speedo briefs, I figured he was hurt and drug off somewhere."

"Kimberly let me ask you something?" Tommy asked trying to find the right words to say. "If that was Tommy, wouldn't he come up to you?"

"I was wondering that too. I can't understand why he wouldn't. But, I did tell Aisha who horrible the boy looked and how I didn't think it was Tommy."

"If it was, maybe he heard what you said, and it hurt him. Or maybe he was ashamed of his appearance and didn't want you to know it was him? Or maybe he was afraid you wouldn't view him like you did before?"
