Nikki opened her eyes and once again she was in Tommy's bedroom lying on his bed.
"Tommy?" she asked wondering if he was in the room with her.
"You have got to stop doing that on me, I'm beginning to think I'm bad luck or something," Tommy said as he sat down on the edge of the bed.
"You're not bad luck Tommy," she replied as she sat up.
"So now that you're awake, care explaining to me what you were doing going through my things," Tommy said.
"I'm really sorry about that," she said.
"Just before you passed out you looked at me and said it's you, what did you mean by that?" Tommy asked.
"Um let's see where do I even begin," she said.
"How about the beginning," Tommy suggested.
"Ok, what I'm about to tell you is going to be a little hard for you to understand and you may even think that I'm crazy but I promise you it's the truth," Nikki told him.
"I'll bet what you're going to say isn't nearly as crazy as some of the things I've been through and trust me I've been through some crazy things," Tommy said.
"Don't say I didn't warn you," Nikki replied.
"What the hell is going on here?" a female voice asked and Nikki and Tommy looked up to find Sara standing in the doorway.
"I didn't hear the doorbell," Tommy said.
"That's because I let myself in, you gave me a key remember," Sara told him.
"Um right, you remember Nikki don't you," Tommy said getting up off the bed and walking over to where Sara stood.
"Hello Sara," Nikki said as she got off the bed.
"What are you doing here and in Tommy's bedroom no less?" Sara questioned.
"Sara, it's not what you think, Nikki had another fainting spell and I brought her up here to rest," Tommy answered.
"Funny, that seems to happen a lot, or is that just your excuse to worm your way into my boyfriend's life," Sara replied.
"Look Sara, I know how this looks but I'm not trying to cause trouble," Nikki told her.
"If that's true then I think you should leave and don't come back," Sara said.
"You can't just order people out of my home," Tommy told her.
"Come on Tommy, don't you see, she's obviously got a thing for you, why else would see keep showing up here and conveniently having these fainting spells, it's all just this big act so that you'll start to care about her," Sara told him.
"That's not what she's doing," Tommy said.
"And how do you know, you don't even know her, or have you been lying to me about that," Sara responded.
"I'm not lying, I would never do that to you," Tommy told her.
"I think it's best if I go now," Nikki said.
"Yeah that would be best," Sara said.
Nikki walked past her and out of the bedroom door. She ran down the hallway and down the stairs heading towards the front door.
"Nikki, please wait," Tommy said as he ran after her.
"Tommy, why are you doing this, let her go," Sara called after him.
"Sara's right, I have no right being here," Nikki told him.
"Sara doesn't get to decide who I'm friends with and we never finished our conversation, you were going to tell me something," Tommy said.
"It's not important," Nikki said as she began walking away.
"At least let me drive you somewhere, it's quite a walk from here into town," Tommy told her.
"I could call a cab for you," Sara said as she joined them.
"Don't go to any trouble for me, I'll just call my sister to come and…" Nikki said as she was suddenly doubled over in pain.
"Are you ok?" Tommy asked with concern as he ran over to support her and keep her from keeling over.
"I'm not sure, I don't know what's happening," Nikki said as she grabbed onto him.
"Oh isn't this just typical," Sara smirked.
"I don't think she's joking about this Sara, she seems to be in real pain," Tommy said.
"I need to go home," Nikki said as she began breathing slowly in and out.
"You need a doctor," Tommy told her.
"I'm running out of time," Nikki whispered.
"Now what is she mumbling about," Sara said.
"I don't know but I'm taking her to the hospital," Tommy said as he lifted Nikki up in his arms.
"Fine but you're not going alone, I'll drive," Sara said.
Nikki lay in the hospital bed where the doctors were monitoring her condition. She desperately wanted to call for Sami but didn't want to risk exposure. So she lay there alone, tears running down her face and silently praying that her baby would be ok.
"It's going to be ok," Tommy said as he entered the room and pulled up a chair next to her bed.
"You're still here?" she questioned.
"I didn't want to leave you here all alone and the doctor said maybe you could use a little distraction to get your mind off the pain," Tommy replied.
"He told me that some women do experience cramping early in pregnancy and that I shouldn't be too worried but I am," Nikki told him as she grabbed his hand.
"I really think you should let me call your family or at least your fiancé," he said not letting her hand go.
"He doesn't know," she said.
"About the baby?" he questioned.
"It's a complicated situation," Nikki replied.
"It might help if you talked about it with me," he said.
"I just don't know how to begin, I mean I didn't do such a hot job the first time," Nikki said remembering how Tommy had reacted the first time he learned that she was a witch.
"If you don't want to tell me its ok, I'll just sit here with you as long as you need me," he replied.
"No, I want to tell you, I need to tell you but first let me tell you what I know about you," she said.
"What exactly do you know?" Tommy questioned.
"For starters, I know that you're a power ranger, or at least you were," she answered.
"How could you possibly know that?" Tommy asked in disbelief.
"Because you told me, you told me about how Rita Repulsa turned you into her evil green ranger and how your friends Jason and Kimberly helped you break the spell, I also know that you were the White ranger and after that the Red Zeo ranger, Red Turbo ranger and mostly recently the black Dino Ranger," Nikki told him.
"I can't believe this, why didn't you say anything when we first met," he said.
"Because I didn't remember meeting you, not then anyway but today it all came back to me," she said.
"So you know all about my past as a ranger, but why would I tell you something like that, who are you, and what do you mean to me?" he inquired.
"Let's just take this one step at a time, I don't you running out on me like the last time," she said.
"I'm not going anywhere until I hear everything," Tommy told her.
"Ok, I know this is going to sound crazy but this time we're living in right now is the wrong one and someone altered the timeline to make us forget about each other," Nikki began.
"Why would someone go to all that trouble?" Tommy asked.
"Because of who I am, this is all because of me, our lives have been turned upside down, this isn't the way it's supposed to be," she told him.
"So how is it supposed to be?" he questioned.
"You just got back from a cruise right, that's how you met Sara I assume," she said.
"How do you know that?" he asked.
"In our real time, that's how we met, on the cruise it was supposed to be me and you that met not you and Sara, we fell in love and you asked me to marry you and I said yes and after that you went back to San Francisco to live with my family and that's where we were before everything got messed up," Nikki answered.
"You really want me to believe that in some altered timeline or something that you're my wife?" he questioned.
"I am your wife Tommy, I told you it would sound crazy but it's the truth," she said.
"If you're my wife then what are you doing engaged to another man," he retorted.
"It's for the same reason that you ended up with Sara, things were changed so that we never met and this is what would have happened if we hadn't, I'd end up engaged to Drake and you'd be with Sara," she said.
"Whose baby are you carrying?" he asked after a few minutes of silence.
"I think you already know the answer to that," she said.
"Mine, that's why you can't tell your fiancé because you think the baby is mine," he replied.
"I know it's yours, that's why I said it's you when I fainted because I finally remembered everything, now all I need to do is figure out a way to put it all back," Nikki told him.
"This is all crazy, I don't know what to believe, how could anyone be powerful enough to change the timeline so drastically," he said.
"I'm a witch Tommy," she said after taking a deep breath.
"A witch, like a Samantha on Bewitched kind of witch?" he asked.
"Something like that only it's a lot more than Samantha ever had to deal with," she replied.
"Wait, so you're telling me that I somehow ended up marrying a witch and now someone has cast some kind of spell to make me forget everything," he said.
"Yes, I understand if you don't believe me, I wouldn't blame you if you went running from the room and never looked back," she said.
"You said I did that once before," he replied.
"You were angry that I kept the truth about myself from you, I just married you without bothering to tell you what you were getting yourself into, I didn't blame you, you had every right to feel the way you did," she told him.
"But I eventually got over it?" he asked.
"Yes, and that's when you told me the truth about your past as a ranger, you wanted me to know that you understood why I had to keep my family's secret," she said.
"So everyone in your family is a witch?" he asked.
"More or less, my family is very powerful and I'm sure altering the timeline was just a way to make us weaker," she replied.
"Do you know who did this?" he asked.
"My fiancé Drake, he's a demon and I think he changed the timeline so that I would never find out," she told him.
"Did you just say your fiancé is a demon?" he questioned.
"Yes, I'm afraid that's another thing that makes all of this sound crazy," Nikki replied.
"How are you feeling?" the doctor asked as he walked into the room.
"I'm fine, the cramping has stopped I didn't even notice," Nikki told him.
"Then I guess it's safe to send you home, but I would caution you to see your doctor and let her know what happened," he said.
"Thanks, I will," Nikki said as the doctor left the room.
"So what happens now?" Tommy asked after Nikki came out of the hospital bathroom where she changed back into her clothes.
"I have to go back home, I can't let Drake figure out that I have my memory back," she replied.
"I'm going with you," Tommy announced.
"You can't," she said.
"You come here and you tell me that you're my wife and that your carrying my child and you expect me to just let you go back to your fiancé who you've told me is a demon," Tommy replied.
"I know it's hard to understand but I have to go back, I have to take care of Drake myself or the timeline will never be fixed and you'll never remember," she told him.
"I don't know why but I believe you," he said.
"Sami, I'm ready," Nikki called out as her sister orbed into the hospital room.
"So I guess you're a witch too," Tommy said after seeing Sami appear.
"You told him?" Sami questioned.
"I had to, now we need to get back and fix this before it's too late, I promise you I will fix this," Nikki said looking into Tommy eyes one last time before Sami orbed them away.
