Chapter Two
Tommy stood in front of his open locker, stuffing his books inside. He hadn't slept at all the night before, he'd tossed and turned like crazy thinking about what that fucker were doing to his girlfriend. His beautiful Kimberly, trapped there with an evil over lord and dying from the loss of her power coin, thinking of it nearly brought the white ranger to tears. The only thing that kept him from completely breaking down was the anger that continued to boil inside of him. Billy was still working on the transporter and they hadn't been able to make contact with Zed since yesterday, though Tommy wasn't going to sit around and wait for that transporter to be completely finished, there was still one other person who he could reach and try to help Kimberly.
Walking down the halls in his white jeans, t-shirt and tan coloured button up shirt; he let his hair loose to hang over his shoulders as he tried his best to smile at a certain Australian blonde who was walking into the high school library. He walked in calmly behind her and followed her at a safe distance until he watched her stop at an aisle of books. Checking carefully to make sure no one else was around before he moved in, Tommy came up behind her and grabbed her wrists, holding them to her sides as he growled in her ear. Sometime he hated his own rules against hating woman. "Where is she Kat?"
Katherine was taken by surprise as she felt his firm grip on her wrists, his strong chest against her back and that voice whispering in her ear. She had always wanted him so close, but her dreams had been under completely different circumstances. "Tommy...I don't know what you're talking about.." she said innocently, pretending to be scared, though a part of her honestly was fearful of him. How did he know? What did he know? "Tommy, you're hurting me.." she whined, trying to get free only for him to turn her around and glare at her as he held her painfully tight.
"Oh am I? Well tough shit. This is nothing compared to what I want to do to you Kat. If it was my decision I would tear you apart piece by piece."
"Tommy please, don't say things like that.."
"Why? Do they hurt your feelings?" Tommy had a similar look to on his face when he was the green ranger, but he was in complete control. He hated being like this but he needed to scare her into helping him. He sure as hell wasn't going to woo her into submission, she'd enjoy that too much. "You stole her power coin, did you know it would kill her if you were to hand it over to Rita and Zed? Did you honestly think it would get you anywhere?"
"Tommy, you don't understand. She had me under a spell, I didn't know what I was doing until it was too late. Please Tommy.." she cried, tears gathering in her eyes. It was hard to tell whether her words were truthful or just another lie she needed to string together to keep close to him. At the moment, he chose the later.
He had been controlled by Rita once as well, there was no way he could deny the possibility that Katherine had been under mind control, though at the same time the actions weren't just aimed at the power rangers like most of Rita's plans were, it seemed to circle around Kimberly and Kimberly alone. Never the less he released his hold and looked at her with a simple gentle expression. "Look, I don't know what's going with all this, but what I do know is that Kimberly is in a lot of danger."
Katherine was smiling to herself in her mind, her plan was working. "I'm sure it will work out Tommy, you'll find a way to get her back safe." She laid a comforting hand on his shoulder as she smield to him gently. Letting her female charms speak for her she then looked up to the clock, "Tommy, I have to go to the youth center. I'm taking my dance class in a few minutes. Would you mind walking me there?"
"Kat I can't, I have to get back to Billy and the others to see how the transporter is working."
"It will only a minute and then you can make sure Rita doesn't get a hold of me again." She said, doe eyes staring at him with fake fear as she held his shoulder. "I hate to be a bother but it may only cause more trouble if I go alone." She pointed out, trying to appeal to his protective nature.
Thinking over the best possible way to handle this Tommy decided to just take her to the youth center, that way he could keep an eye on her until she was in the presence of a group, and it would appease her enough to shut up for five minutes. What he didn't like was the fact that she held his arm the entire way there, receiving look after look from people who knew he was dating Kim. Dropping her off inside the front door he went to move away when he was pulled back to Kat. "Thanks Tommy, you're such a gentleman," she leaned up and kissed his cheek before waltzing inside, leaving a very confused Tommy Oliver behind to wipe his cheek angrily and glare at her disappearing figure.
'if that woman doesn't quit it I'm gonna have to let my rules go for a minute and just smack her' he thought to himself as he ran the rest of the way to Billy's house.

Kimberly groaned in pain as she lay on the table now, it turned slowly as the machine slowly drained her power. She was covered with a sheet, which did little to hide her body from the grunts that wandered around and the guards who wouldn't let up. She was far too weak to fight back or even try to move, so bindings were not needed. She just laid there still and occasionally whimpering in pain when the machine was levelled up. Staying conscious was a battle as it was. She tried to speak, to cry to scream but nothing came. Just a soft and shuttering breath before she went into a fit of weak coughing before settling back down and being silent once more. "Oh so sad my little pet." His voice chuckled as Zed entered the room, staff in hand as he ran it up her leg before removing it, making her shiver in disgust. "So weak, so helpless." His cold metal claws ran down her cheek to her collar bone, moving slowly to inch towards her breast. "Dear white ranger, why won't you come save this poor little creature?" he teased, seeing the pain and suffering reflecting in those tired brown eyes. "I'll be back later my princess, to fully enjoy you..." he turned and left the room, laughing joyously as she was left to let the tears running down her cheeks.
"Tommy." She whispered before she passed out once more.

"Okay, looks like everything is a go." Billy said as he rigged up the last of the wires and looked to Tommy who was awaiting his update nervously. "The transporter is linked onto Kimberly's communicator. This should take you right to where Zed is hiding her. It won't get you there for long. Find Kimberly and warp her home, from there you may have enough time to look and find her power coin."
"Got it." He nodded sternly and walked forward through the warp. 'I'm coming Kim...just hang on.'
