Chapter Five: She Knows
It seemed that everything just feel back into a normal routine with Kat around, aside from not having Kim around. She pretty much had stepped up to the plate and became one of them quickly. She could be seen everywhere with the rangers.
Kat's dance classes kicked off with a bang. Most of her students where from Angel Grove Elementary, so they all came over on the same bus as the karate students straight after school.
Kat covered the karate classes for the others when they pulled one of their many disappearing acts and never asked questions.
For that the rangers where grateful but they knew she was curious, but they could never tell her that they where the Power Rangers. They never had to tell her because she already knew, although they didn't know she knew.
They had run out of one of her training sessions and she followed them to see what it was that was so important that they where always leaving. She saw them morph and then rush off into the heat of a battle that was not far from where Catherine was.
As the rangers fought the monster Kat helped the people escape.
Catherine heard a child crying and looked back to see the monster towering over the girl and the rangers where to far away to get there in time. She acted on instinct. She ran over to where the girl was and attacked the monster with a side kick.
"Get out of here!" she shouted to the little girl as she blocked a swipe of the monsters blade-like arm. The little girl nodded and then took of running towards her hysterical mother who grabbed her and ran.
Katherine then turned her attention back to the monster that was in front of her. She didn't know enough martial arts to fight him traditionally, but an idea came to her.
She did a leap and changed it swiftly into a side kick which sent the monster flying backwards.
As the monster charged her again the yellow ranger attacked it which caused it to charge her, making it forget about the other rangers and Kat and attach her which was its mistake.
The red ranger threw one look at Kat and then pulled his blaster out of its harness.
"Kat, catch" he said as he threw her his extra blaster. She caught the blaster with unnatural ease.
"Rest of you…Let's put 'em, together." Jason said as they formed the Power Blaster.
"Ready, Aim, Fire" the Red ranger yelled as the Power Blaster and the Blaster Kat had tore into the monster.
They all turned their backs as the monster was blown high sky. Kat handed the Blaster back to the Red Ranger.
"How'd you know my name?" She asked right before they left.
"It's our job to know everyone in Angel Grove. See you around Kitty Kat." Trini said as they teleported out and back to the Command Center.
Kat smiled and turned to leave the park when Rita and some putties appeared.
"We'll what do we have here. A Kitty Kat all by her lonesome self?" Rita asked as she laughed.
Kat quickly went back into a fighting stance that Jason had taught her.
The putties quickly out powered and out numbered her and they captured her.

"Put her in a holding cell." Rita said to the putties that held Kat.
They nodded and dragged a struggling Kat to the holding cells.
Once at the holding cell they threw her inside the cell and locked the door behind her.
Days seemed to pass in the blink of an eye as food was brought in three times a day and she was let out to use the bathroom once a day. The rangers searched and searched for her but couldn't find her.
