"Leave me alone!" Jenny yelled as she scrambled away from the monster and tried to get behind something that would hide her, but she couldn't find anything. Everything there was not big enough for her to hide behind, much less any adult that might be trying to save her. "My Mommy and Daddy are not going to be happy with you."
"I'm not scared of your mommy and daddy," Mesogogg said as Jenny glared up at him and Mesogogg had to shake himself at how much she looked like Kimberly when she was mad. He had been watching the woman for awhile and he knew that she was one person that he did not truly wish to cross.
"You should be. My mommy and daddy are the best rangers ever!" Jenny yelled as he attempted to grab her and she kicked him hard in the shin. He had been warned that she was a tough little girl. He just hadn't really believed it until now.
"So why haven't your mommy and daddy rescued you yet?" Mesogogg asked as Jenny looked at him. She didn't have an answer for that question, but she was sure that she would think of something soon enough.
"Because they haven't been able to find me, once they find me, they'll be here," Jenny said as Mesogogg's eyes narrowed and the girl scrambled away as there was a loud explosion in the neighboring room and Zeltrax ran in and started beating out the fire on his arms.
"We have company," Zeltrax said as Mesogogg again tried to grab Jenny and move her away, but she was already charging towards the door and past Zeltrax to meet the rangers.
"Mommy! Daddy!" Jenny yelled as she looked around at the rangers and saw that they weren't her parents, but immediately wrapped herself around the red ranger's legs, knowing that he would take care of her.
"Get her out of here, Conner," Kira said as she looked down at the little girl and Conner looked over at Kira in concern. He did not want to leave them in this mess, but he could hear the determination in Kira's voice. "We'll be fine, get her out of here, she's not protected."
"Come on," Conner said as he squatted down and picked the girl up before he teleported away.
"What are we going to do?" Ethan asked as Kira landed on the grounded with a thump and he ran over to her.
"Hold them off just a little bit longer and then we'll go. We have to make sure that Conner is able to get her home before they follow us," Kira said, as she pushed herself up and then was thrown across the room.
"Let's get out of here," Ethan said as he teleported them out and they landed in the Command Center, as Kira promptly fainted from the pain as Ethan looked around and saw that they were alone. "Hello! Come on guys, I need some help!"
"What's wrong?" Hayley asked as she came running in and looked over at Kira's crumpled form. She had been checking over Jenny, although she had not been able to get her far away from Kimberly. Tommy had sent her away when Ethan had yelled, he was just as afraid as Kim to leave her right now. "Go get Tommy…tell him that I need his help."
"Okay," Ethan said as he jumped up and ran off in the direction that Hayley had come from.
"You're all right," Kim said as happy tears fell from her eyes as she held Jenny close and Tommy had his arms wrapped around the both of them. "You're all right, baby."
"Don't cry, Mama," Jenny said as she looked up and saw both of her parents' tears. "I'm fine."
"I know, sweetie, but Mama's just happy," Kim said as Tommy closed his eyes to hold back his tears as Kim looked up at him and he just squeezed them even tighter. He had not had the two of them for a very long time, but he didn't want to lose them after just having them.
"Dr. O…I'm sorry to break this up, but Hayley needs some help," Ethan said as he pulled off his helmet and Tommy looked over at him and then realized what must have happened.
"I'll be back as soon as I can, Kim," Tommy whispered as he gave her a kiss on the forehead and reluctantly let her go. Conner had already run out of the room, figuring what it must be and Tommy was not far behind him.
"Kira…" Conner muttered as he saw her on the floor and stopped dead in his tracks.
"Damn it…" Tommy muttered under his breath as he moved over to Kira and scooped her up into his arms and placed her on the cot that Hayley had already set out. "Come on, Kira, wake up."
"She's out good, Tommy," Hayley said as Tommy looked up at her and he then looked back at the two rangers. He knew what had brought Kim around when she was younger, but neither of these boys were that close to Kira.
"Why couldn't one of them be dating her…" Tommy murmured to himself as Hayley laughed as Kim walked in still carrying Jenny, with Andros only a few moments behind her.
"Kira…wake up," Conner said as he walked over to her and gently shook her shoulder and she let out a groan, which made Hayley and Tommy give him an odd look. It he could wake her up, then they were going to have to look at some other things that were going on. "Wake up, sweetie."
"Sweetie?" Ethan asked looking over at Conner and he just shrugged his shoulders as Kira's eyes blinked open slowly and she looked around at the others. She was just going to love to hear what brought her out of her unconsciousness.
"What happened?" Kira asked, slowly, as Kim walked up next to Tommy and looked up at him with a thankful smile as he put his arm around her.
"You passed out, although I'm not sure why, but we'll know soon enough," Hayley said as Kira attempted to sit up, but wound up leaning against Conner instead. He gently placed his arms around her and pulled her close, as he was worried that she would pass out again.
"Is there something that you want to tell us, Conner?" Kim asked as the boy looked back at her and she nodded towards Kira and his face turned bright red. "Maybe you should talk first."
"Yeah," Conner said as Kim smiled up at Tommy who reached over for Jenny, who scrambled into his arms.
"Are we going to head back to the Space Station?" Andros asked as Kim looked over at Tommy and nodded to him that it was his decision.
"I want to sleep in my own, bed, Kim," Tommy said as Kim nodded and Andros smiled at the two of them.
"Okay, so I'll have a room to myself tonight," Andros said as he left in a blur and Kim's eyes widened as she looked up at Tommy, hoping he would know a way to get them out of what had just been said. They knew that Jenny wouldn't think anything of it, but the teenagers and Hayley certainly would not let that go without asking something about it.
"What does that mean Tommy?" Hayley asked as Kim buried her face against his chest, as she did not want for them to see her blush.
"Nothing, Hayley," Tommy said, calmly, as Jenny looked at his face and saw the lie, but didn't say anything. She was sure that there was a reason that her parents were lying about being back together.
"It means something Dr. O," Conner said, sensibly, as Tommy just shook his head and Jenny scrambled down to the floor and then ran up the stairs.
"Jenny? Where are you going?" Tommy asked as Kim looked up from his chest, her face slightly less red as he released her and she ran up the stairs after Jenny.
"Fess up Tommy, we all know that something happened between the two of you. What was it?" Hayley asked as Tommy looked at her and just shook his head. He had to find a way out of telling them that he had had sex with his ex-girlfriend only after about five minutes of being nice to each other. It was the same thing as what had happened last time.
"Use your imagination, see where it leads you," Tommy said as Hayley's eyes widened and she just shook her head.
"I thought that you would learn," Hayley said as Tommy smiled and he then headed up the stairs to join the rest of his family.
"Let the kids go when Kira gets over the dizziness and if that's not over in the next hour, come tell me. We may have to actually take her to the hospital," Tommy said as Kira moved away from Conner for a moment to look up at who had been holding her for the last few minutes and was shocked to see him.
"What are you doing?" Kira whispered as Conner looked between Hayley and Ethan, who both silently turned towards the stairs and left. They knew that the two of them needed a moment. "Conner…"
"You woke up for me, not Dr. O," Conner said, simply, as Kira just stared at him, wondering what that meant. She didn't really understand it. "I…I guess that doesn't mean anything to you."
"What do you mean? Please just tell me what you're thinking, I'm too tired to try to figure it out on my own," Kira said as she closed her eyes and snuggled up against him.
"Why did you wake up for me when you wouldn't wake up for him?" Conner asked as Kira just shrugged her shoulders. She had not realized what had happened, but she hoped that no one would really look into it too hard. "Kira, there is always a reason for that, you know it as well as I do."
"There is not always an explanation for things Conner, just accept it and everything will be all right," Kira said as Conner just shook his head. He had not expected her to have this sort of reaction to him
"You were out cold, so there is some sort of explanation for it all," Conner said as Kira just looked at him. She was not sure that she really wanted to hear any of this and she was surely sure that she did not want to have to say anything about it.
"There is nothing Conner, I just woke up when I was supposed to," Kira said as Conner just shook his head. They both knew that was a lie but neither of them wanted to confront the other about it. There was no use in upsetting the other in such a situation.
"Okay, but you are going to have a very hard time convincing Dr. O of that one," Conner said as Kira looked over at him, slightly confused. "I'm just being honest Kira."
"I know Conner, but I have a rough time believing that Dr. O would actually care about how I am, considering how everything is going with him and Kim right now," Kira said as Conner nodded his head, but he also had the feeling that Dr. O could handle more than one problem at a time.
"You'd be surprised at how well he can multi-task," Kim said as she walked back down the stairs and picked up the t-shirt she had left down there for Jenny. "Tommy is a man of many surprises and if you stick around long enough, you might just find out about a few more of them."
