Summery: Years after the infamous Dear John Letter Kimberly Ann Hart calls Thomas Oliver and asks him to met in Angel Grove's Park. Can a relationship ten years old be salvage?
Two six year olds were stretching getting ready for their gymnastics practice. One had on a blue gymnastics uniform, and the other pink. One girl was a brunette while the other was a redhead. Both of them had braided hair.
The six year old in pink got up and ran towards the balance beam. The one in blue followed her with her eyes. But, soon got up to follow her closely since warning bells were going off in her head. The girl in pink looked back at her friend.
"Come on ," the pink clad girl said.
"Your not suppose to play on the balance beam!" blue clad girl cried.
"Worry wort," the pink clad girl mumbled, but started climbing onto the balance beam.
"Your going to get in trouble!" the blue girl cried as she ran off to find a teacher or someone to talk her pink clad friend out of it. And, then she ran not hearing the thud of a body behind her...
Not again, a woman thought taking in her surroundings. What was the last thing that had happened to her? Then it hit her. Kimberly... Kimberly the girl that Tommy began to talk about back in college had kidnapped her and brought her here. Where was here? She began to wonder as a golden amour flying monkey approached and unlocked the spell.
"Your awake," he sneered.
The woman nodded. Dread filled her heart. The nightmare was surreal to her even after ten years. It plagued her. All, she knew was Kimmie was in trouble. That's what the nightmares had been telling her. And, yet the nightmare had twisted her very own memory. But, she wouldn't understand why. She followed this monkey man. One that Tommy had described to her all those years ago.
He pulled her out of the cell and pushed her in front of him and pushed her to walk forcefully. He snarled at her. She began to think how much longer did she had to live? She had to get out of here and warn the Dino Thunder Rangers and Tommy.
"Kimberly or rather my Mistress would like a word with you," he growled throwing her into his Mistress's bed chambers.
Tommy tried to call Hayley when he was about fifteen minutes from his own abode. But, she wasn't answering her phone. He felt lost. Had Mesogog got to her? Or did Kim? Neither situation he was willing to face. But, he was sure it wasn't good for his side. He didn't want to encounter the Dino Thunder Rangers at the moment nor Mesogog. He didn't have his Dino Gem anymore. But, he wonder if there was a way to bring it back.
He couldn't turn to his friends either. It seemed that the only one who had kept in contact with him the past ten years was Jason and Trini. But, he could tell Trini didn't want anything to do with him. Now, he understood why.
He turned into his driveway and parked his car. Hurrying up towards the front door he wanted to forget what had happened in the past twenty-four hours. But, as he opened his front door he instantly spotted the Dino morpher, a blue cellphone, and a note.
The Dino morpher was useless now. He didn't have the gem anymore. What if the kids were in trouble? What could he do? Sure, he had the other Ranger powers. But, he wasn't willing or ready to expose them. He was the Falcon Ranger, The Red Zeo Ranger, The Green Ranger... of course the green Ranger Powers were now useless...
Picking up the cellphone he checked whose was it. That's easy it's Hayley's. He thought. She had been here. But, now where was she? She couldn't have found his morpher, nor left a piece of paper for him. Yet, he studied the folded note and it had a faded crest of the Crane.
Kim...
He quickly opened the letter and begun reading the letter.
Falcon-
I have kidnapped the Dino Thunder's technical advisor. Do you really care for her? Are you ready to fight for the two women you care the most about? You have seventy-two hours to find her. When the time is up your little technical advisor dies.
-Crane
Kim kidnapped Hayley. Not the letter he was expecting from Kim. But then again her last letter had ripped his heart in half. Yet, this letter made him feel ten times worse then the break up letter. He then heard a fading voice in his mind-- something that never had happened before. Wait... the note had said two? Who else could he save? It didn't make any sense.
Billy and Trini were working closely together to get the morphing grid back up. Trini was asking Billy how life been like on Aquitar. Jason and her didn't ask about it in the past, and then it slipped their minds. Oddly enough he had taken Katherine to Aquitar the past year. And, she had enjoyed it. She rekindled her friendship with the Aquitan Rangers. Shaking her head she got back to work, amazed that less then a few hours ago she didn't know that Billy, Rocky, Adam, and Aisha had rebuilt this place.
"Where are we?" Trini asked as she looked around.
A man who was dressed in black jeans and shirt waved to her.
"Hey Trini, Billy." he said as the others landed behind them a few seconds later.
Jason stepped next to his wife, and held her hand as they looked around. He was amazed their Command Center had now looked like something from a movie. It was a cross between his old Ranger days and his Turbo days.
"You guys outdid yourselves." he said.
"Yeah we'll it's not my idea," the man clad in black had said.
Zack had now join Trini and Jason. He too, like Jason was amazed. Billy,Rocky, Aisha and Katherine laughed as the their the original Rangers didn't talk. They just took how the Command Center. Then Zack remembered what his counter part had said.
"Adam, whose idea was it? As I remember you are the Architect." he said.
Trini and Jason agreed. So did Katherine, who always thought it was his idea. She also had thought of him crazy when he recruited Rocky. The fact of the matter is...
"It was my idea." Billy said.
Katherine turned to him.
"But how? How did you manage to hid it from me?" Katherine asked astonished.
Billy chucked. He knew all very well.
"You remember some of those late nights I refused to go home? The ones right after Kim's third episode... when you told me how much trouble we would get into if Tommy wouldn't come..."
Katherine nodded, somehow she had predicted this.
"Anyway, I called Adam one night and pitched him the idea. He had agreed not knowing I all ready drew up plans."
"Yeah! You should of told me! I couldn't figured out how to do it. That's why I recruited Rocky!" Adam pipped in.
Adam, Aisha, and Rocky laughed. The three originals kept quiet so Billy could continued...
"Can we locate Kim?" she asked Billy.
She was afraid for her friend's safety.
"I hope so." Billy said, moving across the Command Center swiftly.
Aisha and Katherine came back into the small computer room silently. Both women were smiling. Adam and Rocky were trying to get in touch with Dulcea, but were failing miserably. Jason and Zack were playing poker with a deck of cards Adam had.
"You know Jase you could help us," Trini said rolling her eyes.
"But, I'm winning!" Jason said, not looking up from his cards.
Trini shook her head and went back to helping Billy. They felt lost, even more so with Zordon and Alpha now gone from their world. Jason then felt another presence in the room with them, and put down his hand. Zack did the same too. Slowly everyone stopped what they were doing and turned around. Next to the viewing globe was a man clad in a white ninja outfit.
The other Ninjetti Rangers followed in suit. Red, Blue, and Yellow. Adam sheepishly looked towards the ground. The Frog had no power coin like Tommy didn't had his Dino Gem. Sharing a knowing look with Tommy Adam walked towards him, smiling.
"She doesn't need to be located," Tommy said calmly as the other ninjetti slowly crossed over to him as well. The Bear, The Ape, and The Wolf welcomed their leader back with every hint to hurt him, but the wise Frog knew better...
Don't forget to review!
