Back in Love and Back in Pink - Chapter 4 / Taken

Kim's POV
It was such a lovely day today, I had decided to put up Ciaran's paddling pool he had been waiting for so long to put this up and today seemed like such a nice day to do it "Why don't you go and get your Finding Nemo trunks and bring them down here and I'll put them on for you OK?" He nodded excitedly and ran off to go and get them, as he did that I filled the pool up with water it was hard making sure it wasn't too hot or too cold but eventually I had right and it was good timing because Ciaran came running out with no clothes on holding his trunks "Why are you naked?" I asked him trying to hide my laughter.

"I was going to do it myself like a big boy but I kept falling over as I lifted my leg to put it in my shorts" he stated frustrated, he held on to me as he put each leg in his trunks then he jumped in the water splashing me "Sorry mummy" he said and started playing with some of his toys.

"That's OK... Are you going to be OK whilst I go and get my phone?" He nodded and carried on playing. I wasn't worried about him drowning there wasn't that much water but as a mother I was still scared. I walked into the living room and grabbed my phone and just as I got to the kitchen I heard him scream and I ran as fast as I could to him and found the tyrannadrone things had him then they disappeared "No!" I screamed, I pulled up my contact list on my phone and found the only person that could help "Hello Tommy" I said into the phone as he answered.

"Kim?" He sounded surprised.

"Tommy I really need your help, those tyrannathings have taken Ciaran, please Tommy I really need your help" I told him crying. They had taken my baby.

"OK Kim, I'm on my way but I'll be a few hours but I will be as quick as I can OK" he promised and I knew he would be here when he could, we hung up and I didn't know what to do, if I was a power ranger it would be easy I would morph and find them but now I'm a civilian and I knew the only person who could save my baby was Tommy. What did they want with him? He was four years old he was probably scared and cold if he was sitting in those wet shorts somewhere he might get really sick. Tommy hurry up I thought to myself as I started to pack Ciaran some things for when we found him he would need some warm clothes and he would probably want his favourite Finding Nemo toy.

Tommy's POV
When I hung up the phone I looked at everyone who was staring at me "The tryannadrones have kidnapped Kim's son, we need to go over there now. Ethan you and Kira stay here incase anything happens whilst we're away, Hayley try your best to find him or find a list of places they might have taken him, Ethan and Kira you follow any leads here OK? Trent and Connor you're coming with me" everyone understood their orders and we all went to work.

Half way to Kim's I got a phone call from Hayley, I made Connor answer it as I was driving and put it on loud speaker "Tommy there's a place about half a mile from Kimberley's place that has got monster activity coming from it. When you get Kimberly that's the first place that you should go it's your best bet... Ethan and Kira found a invisiportal and they went to Mesagog's lab without getting caught and he defiantly wasn't there" she explained to us.

"Thanks Hayley" we hung up the phone "Trent in the bag next to you I need you to get something out for me, it's a pink box I want you to keep it safe until we get to Kim's and when you see her you give it to her" I told him and he opened the bag bringing out the box "Don't bother asking what it is because I'm not telling you it's a surprise" I told him and he rolled his eyes.

We finally reached Kim's and as soon as we pulled up she ran out to us she looked a state "Tommy you have got to help him... He's probably terrified right now" she told me and threw her arms around me, I hugged her back and told the boys to take the bags inside and they did.

"Listen to me Kim, I promise you that I will do everything I can to get him back for you... I think I have something that can help get him back but you've got to be up for it Kim" I told her knowing her answer already.

"I'll do anything" we went inside the house and I told Trent to give her the pink box and he did, she opened the box and gasped when she seen the contents and so did the boys "Is this what I think it is?" She asked and I nodded "You're making me a power ranger again?" She questioned and I nodded once again "Show me how to morph" she stated and we did she was now officially a pink ranger again.

We were all morphed and we headed to the place Hayley was telling me about and sure enough there were tyrannadrones there waiting for us, Kim went wild and started fighting her way through them to get to her son, I followed behind her and left the other two boys to fight the rest of them off "Kim be careful" I shouted and as I ran after her.

I managed to get in front of her and I seen Ciaran being guarded my Elsa "The plan worked, we lured out the black ranger" she said and laughed "Now surrender you gem or I will destroy the boy" she threatened.

"Over my dead body!" Kim shouted and kicked Elsa away from Ciaran, she took her helmet off. Ciaran instantly ran to her and hugged her tight "Are you OK sweetie?" She asked checking him over.

"A new ranger?! You haven't heard the end of this!" Elsa shouted and disappeared.

"Mummy I was a brave boy I didn't cry! But I was really scared" Kim started crying and hugged him tightly again.

I took my helemt off as the other two joined us, they had already powered down "Hi Ciaran, my name is Tommy. You should be proud of yourself little man you were very brave" I said to him.

"You're Tommy? Mummy we have to go! Daddy told me that Tommy was a bad man and he would try and take you away... We gotta phone daddy now" he seemed really scared of me. He hid behind Kim and grabbed onto her pulling her away from me.

"No he's not a bad man. He's one of mummy's friends and he isn't going to try and take me away I promise, daddy shouldn't of said that it wasn't nice" Kim explained to him.

The five of us made our way back to Kim's house and she made everyone a drink and offered to make us dinner and give us a place to stay for the night which was sweet of her, Connor and Ethan were out the back playing with Ciaran, he took an instant liking to Connor when he started showing him some soccer tricks "They're good kids" Kim commented as she came and stood beside me at the kitchen window and watched the three interact.

"Yeah they're great kids. Kim why would Eric tell Ciaran something like that about me?" I questioned.

"I don't know but let me tell you first thing tomorrow morning I'm ringing him and giving him a piece of my mind, there's a couple of other things I have a issue with that I want to speak to him about. I love Ciaran so much and I would never trade him in for the world but I wish he had a different dad... Someone like you" I knew she was scared about my reaction to that last statement but I was flattered it was a nice thing to say.

"When the others go to bed tonight could we maybe have a chat about some things, there is something I want to tell you and something I want to ask you" she nodded and the other three came rushing in needing a drink "You guys have fun?" I asked looking at Ciaran.

He shrugged lightly before running off to the living room "I'm really sorry Tommy. I promise when I speak to Eric tomorrow I'll make sure he apologises and tells Ciaran the truth about you" Kim said as she took dinner out of the oven.

Kim's POV
I checked on Ciaran and he was fast asleep snoring lightly once I was convinced nothing would happen to him I went back downstairs into the living room where Tommy had just sent the others upstairs to sleep so we could talk, I sat down next to him and was worried about what he wanted to talk about but I was terrified about what he wanted to ask me "Kim first off I want to say how sorry I am for the way I acted the other week it was totally out of order and I had no right asking all those questions it's your personal life. Ciaran's a great kid and I'm glad that things have been going so well for you because you deserve a little happiness in your life even if I couldn't provide that happiness" he said to me and I felt the tears pricking my eyes.

"You have no reason to be sorry I should have told you instead of hiding it from you. You were one of the best people in my life and I should have told you" I told him.

"How about we're both sorry" he suggested and I nodded "The thing I wanted to ask you was... Well... Come to Reefside with me and resume your role as the pink ranger... Permanently" he said.
