THE DAY JUST WENT FROM BAD TO WROSE

I don't own anything but I sure do wish I did sometimes All the disclaimers apply though

Chapter 2

Kimberly walked out of the youth center and headed for the park. Whenever she was shaken or upset she went to the playground to sit on the swings. As she made it to the swings and sat down her mind started wondering. They all looked good. I wonder what happened. How could I have these amazing friends one day and the next literally never hear from them again except for those awful 2 days when each of them left horrible messages on my voice mail during training? She could still remember them all word from word.

"Kimberly, it's me Adam. Look I don't know what's going on with you but you need to stop acting so selfish and get your head on straight. I don't want to talk to you anymore unless you can stop acting like a spoiled brat.. A princess who has the power and right to belittle everyone just because she can. GROW UP!"

"Hey little sis! It's me Jason. Look I don't know what is going on between you and Tommy and I am not sure I want to know. However you shouldn't just throw someone away like that who loves you. He loves everything about you.. just leave him alone. Don't call, write, or try and see him. He doesn't need that anymore."

"KIMBERLY this is Katherine. I am very disappointed in you. I thought better of you, the person who let me be her successor. I guess you never really know someone."

"This is Rocky and as much as I don't wanna say it I don't think we should be friends for a while. Let everything cool off. If and when I want to talk to you again I know your number."

"This is Tommy. Remember me? You owe me an explanation at the very least. How could you be so vicious and cold? I thought I knew you better."

She got those messages right after her second long day of training. She was shocked to say the least and tried to call them all. I guess after every time they hung up on me I finally got the message she thought. Tommy had hurt her the most. She could not understand what happened between them. They are the ones who told me to follow my dreams. It didn't fully become my dream until they demanded I go. All I really wanted was for Tommy to ask me to stay. Is that really too much to ask of a person?

Back at the youth center

As soon as Jason got over the shock of Kim walking right past him he walked back to the table. Looking at everyone he said "I don't know what happened but that is not the Kimberly I know. She must really hate me to walk right past me and not say anything."

Jason looked so sad and defeated that Tommy decided to take matters into his own hands. "Lets all go and find her. If she is that upset she will be at the swings. That way we can find out what's up and I can get an explanation." They all nodded their approval with the plan. Soon after they all got up and left with the new resolve to find and confront Kim.

As Tommy walked with his friends he started thinking back to the letter.

*FLASHBACK*

After the letter was finished everyone maintained a shocked silence. All of them looked to Tommy to see what he would say and think about those vile words that their friend wrote.

Tommy's POV:

He looked at everyone looking at him. I can't breathe he thought. They are looking at me expecting me to say something and I can't breathe. My heart feels like it has had a war with some acid and it feels like it is burning out of my chest. I can't believe this. What happened? He looked at his friends and noted their concerned faces and was able to mumble out "Um guys I got to go. There's somewhere I need to be." Then he grabbed his stuff and ran out the door and down by the lake as fast as he could. When he got there he just sat down and cried. After a few minutes he dried his eyes and just stared remembering a whole bunch of random moments between them. Everything from the first time they talked, the first time they held hands, kissed, and ect. He was so lost in thought that he didn't notice Kat walked up behind him until she sat down next to him and asked if he was alright. He honestly couldn't remember what they had talked about but the next thing he knew he had somehow agreed to go skiing with Kat and Billy that weekend.

The next few days had gone by slowly for Tommy. The weekend skiing trip came and the next thing the group knew the weekend was over and they were on the drive home. Kat set him up with a date that night with a girl named Heather. Tommy got all dressed up but she didn't show so he and Kat had the date together. After dinner they left the youth center and spent the night together at Tommy's. They had sex together through most of the night. For her it was everything dreams were made of and for him it was a small comfort during this storm of conflicting emotions that were battling inside of him. He never called Kim again after that one time and no one from Angel Grove aside from Ernie, Bulk, and Skull saw Kimberly compete and win 3 gold medals in the Pan Globals. When the announcer stated that this would be Kimberly's last performance and that she would be retiring they didn't understand why but they cheered for her anyway.

Back to the present

On the moon:

Lord Zedd watched Kimberly from afar. He knew that Goldar wrote Tommy a letter a while back that was supposed to be from her. He honestly didn't know what was wrong with the boy. If anything he should have kept calling and checked what was going on. I mean geeze he thought they were in love. How could someone who is "so in love" with someone believe that, go out with another girl, and have sex with the other girl? It didn't make sense to him at all. He sighed when he heard Rita and Goldar arguing again. He wished so very much to just retire himself from this evil business. He wished Rita and Goldar would not have come up with yet another plan to attack and take down the power rangers. He thought about helping the rangers a little bit just to watch his wife get frustrated. That would be so much fun for him. Instead he just told her to keep him out of the planning as he didn't want to get involved with this latest plot.
