"Well, damn," Kim muttered as she stared at the various screens. Her brother was tied to a pole as two monsters and two human looking warriors stood by. The human looking man who Kimberly was going to assume was Dai Shi called for the rangers to show or lose their Master. Scowling, she pulled up her wrist and pressed the teleportation button on her old communicator.

Billy had rebuilt the teleportation system just before the fiasco with the Sentinal Knight. At the time, he hadn't known why he felt the sudden urge to do so but later chalked it up to the Grid preparing for the worst. Kim was just thankful she hadn't left the old wrist band at home.

She landed just to the side of where RJ was being kept, beind a large group of boulders. Mentally grumbling about monsters and rock quarries, she peaked over. Casey, Theo, and Lily were posturing with Dai Shi and therefore couldn't see the large group of Rinshi quietly moving in behind them.

"God damnit," she muttered and then froze as she caught sight of movement behind the Rinshi's. Squinting, she suddenly grinned when she realized who it was. "Let's just make this a family affair, then, why don't we?"

Content to leaving her father and his two friends to deal with the two dozen footsoldiers, Kimberly studied the cliff RJ was being held on. The chick she figured she could handle; it was the two monsters with the staffs that were going to be the problem.

"Isn't that your brother?"

Kimberly stifled a shriek at Adam's voice. Twirling, she gaped at the black clothed ninjetti. Despite the seriousness of the situation, his eyes were crinkled up in a smile at her reaction. "What are you doing here?" she hissed.

"Alpha noticed a pink had used the teleportation system," Adam told her quietly. "I came to investigate."

Kim made a face; she had forgotten Andros and Billy had built mini command centers in Adam's house and dojo for Alpha. After his little foray into the Grid, the automaton had taken it upon himself to keep an eye on the systems Billy had built for all the formers.

"RJ is the new mentor, he was captured. I need to get him since the newbie's are dealing with that psycho," she told him, pointing out at the fight between the black armored man and the newly morphed rangers. "And I need to do all of it without ruining my identity."

"We should never have let RJ hang out with Jason and Tommy back in high school," Adam groaned and Kim smirked.

"How do you want to do this?" he asked, content to follow the pink rangers lead since she was the one with the most knowledge of the situation. They both winced as the yellow ranger went flying amidst several explosions and then gaped as Casey called on his animal and a semi-translucent tiger attacked the black armored man.

"I wonder if we can do that?" the black clothed man asked curiously. Kim ignored the statement, knowing Adam would talk to Billy about testing it come the first available opportunity.

"I'm gonna take a wild guess and say that's a new powerup?" Adam asked as Casey's uniform changed. Kim nodded.

"Considering RJ's expression, I'd say yeah," she murmured, noting her brother was looking proudly bemused. She outright grinned when the two monsters leapt down to join the lion warrior. "Well, that'll make things easier."

"We attack and free RJ?" Adam asked and Kim nodded.

"I'll will take on the chick; you go get RJ," she ordered as she prepared to go in.

"Uh, Kim?" Adam asked, his voice amused. She turned to him with a raised eyebrow and he waved at her. "You did say you didn't want RJ to know just yet, right?"

Kim looked down and made a face. A few muttered words and she was once again in her ninjetti uniform. She ignored Adam's knowing smirk and two moved forward.

"I don't like where this is going," the chick whispered as the two ninjetti came up behind her and RJ.

"You shouldn't," Kim smirked and the woman twirled around. The pink clothed warrior stifled a laugh as RJ tried unsuccessfully to turn around in his bonds to see what was going on; the two of them were just outside of his line of sight.

"Who invited you?!" she screeched and Kim and Adam exchanged amused looks.

"Déjà vu?" he asked and she nodded.

"Déjà vu," she agreed before turning to the woman. "You know, the last time someone asked Froggy that, she got her ass kicked. And that was after getting fried by her fiancee."

The woman glared. "Do not anger me midget," she sneered. Adam flinched and stepped back as Kimberly's stance turned pissed.

"MIDGET?!" she shrieked incensed. "I'll show you midget!"

With that, she charged. The woman's face showed a hint of shock for a moment before instinct kicked in and she went on the defensive. Camille stumbled back and swiftly changed into her monster form. Beneath her cowl, Kimberly just smirked. Shaking his head at his friend's antics, Adam moved forward.

"Dude, Ninjetti!" RJ grinned and Adam grinned. He'd always liked Kim's brother. Calling on his power, the black warrior cut RJ's bond and then grabbed him when he stumbled forward, holding onto his chest.

"You okay?" Adam asked and RJ nodded.

"Totally, no sweat!" he replied and the two turned to the two battles being fought.

In terms of power, the fight between Kimberly and Camille was almost evenly matched, with the chameleon only a bit more powerful than the pink ninjetti. Nevertheless, Camille didn't know what to make of the warrior who kept flipping every which way and dodging her attacks with almost effortless ease. Beneath his cowl, Adam smirked as he realized what Kimberly was doing.

The original ranger knew she was really no match for the chameleon when it came to martial arts ability. Kimberly had stopped practicing almost all martial arts when she had gone to Florida. She still did a kata Jason had taught her every morning but that was the limit to her practice. With this in mind, she had decided to try something else.

Kim was used to going almost nonstop in gymnastics day in and day out. Unlike other coaches, she had no qualms about physically showing a girl how to do a particular move or series of moves. This gave the original pink ranger a higher stamina than most others and it was this was employing. Camille was used to fairly short battles—the fact Kim could physically keep going long after Camille would tire out was what Kim was betting on for winning.

And as Adam watched the chameleon stumble as Kim abruptly kicked her in the stomach, he knew she was going to win. Camille jumped forward, going into flying kick that completely missed when Kimberly employed her line of sight teleportation to move behind her.

She spun around the woman, then jumped into the air and landed on her shoulders. Kim wrapped her feet around Camille's neck and backflipped, flinging her into the rocks. Kim landed and turned around as the woman's green armor exploded away to reveal her human form just as explosions announced the destruction of the two monsters.

"They can't do this to us!" she shrieked as the explosions faded away.

"Those are my students," RJ told her with a grin as Kim came to stand beside him. "There's nothing they can't do."

Camille huffed at them as they all turned to watch Casey's battle with Dai Shi ended with the man's armor disappearing. With a little cry of horror, Camille scrambled down to him.

"RJ, are you okay?" Casey asked, eyeing the two warriors warily. RJ nodded.

"I'm totally fine," he assured them as explosions sounded. The six fighters turned to see the monsters had been reenergized.

"Woah, shocking," RJ murmured. Kim and Adam exchanged exasperated glances.

"Things will never change," Kimberly muttered and Adam gave a little sound of agreement. The three rangers ignored the byplay but RJ grinned.

"Let's show them our new technique, guys!" Casey shouted and the three rangers stepped in front of RJ and the two ninjetti.

As the Penguin zord came into being and jumped on a surf board, Kim grabbed Adam's arm with a squeal. "That is adorable!" she exclaimed, her eyes light with glee. A chuckle made her turn around to find Finn, Swoop, and Phant standing with RJ.

"Rinshi's dust?" she asked her father and he nodded.

"The Rinshi's are dust, Wing, Anura," he replied, nodding to the two Ninjetti. Kimberly snickered at Adam's long suffering sigh.

"Anura?" she asked, her eyes twinkling. Adam shot her a look.

"The taxonomy order frogs are in," he told her quietly. The only one who seemed to have caught the whisper was Swoop, who smiled. The six masters turned to the rangers fight just as the monster regrew again, taking the power of his fallen teammate.

"Combine all your animal spirits! It'll be out of control!"

"Combine your zords!" RJ and Kim called at the same time. Finn, Swoop, Phant, and Adam all exchanged amused looks as Casey and the rangers did just that. RJ and Kim just grinned at each other. Adam tugged on Kim's arm and she turned.

"We should go," he told her quietly. "They can handle it from here."

Kim nodded and turned to the four masters. "We'll be seeing you soon," she told them. Finn, Swoop, and Phant all nodded in understanding. RJ's expression was thoughtful. Kim could tell he recognized that he knew her, but couldn't pinpoint from where. She smiled as the three rangers came back. Kim and Adam looked at them as they demorphed.

"Good luck rangers," Kim murmured. As the seven Pài Zhuǎ looked on, Kim and Adam stepped back and bent their heads, their hands in a fist in front of their animal coins. In twin flashes of pink and black, they were gone.

"Who were they?" Casey asked. Finn smiled as Swoop and Phant exchanged pleased looks.

"Masters Wing and Anura of the Ninjetti."


End Notes: Thanks for all the reviews! They made my day.

PinkRangerV: Can I just ask where you got that spelling and pronunciation from? Cause that's not Disney's spelling. And even if it was Disney's, I don't go by Disney cause they flip-flop their facts too much. I mean, for a while, Sky's last name according to Disney was Blake...and in one episode of SPD, Cruger actually calls him "Cadet Blake" even though he'd been calling him "Cadet Tate" since the start of the season.

I depend/rely on RangerWiki instead cause I'm friends with half the staff that's working on RangerWiki and I know they spend hours researching the names, spelling, and histories that can be associated with various tidbits in the PR fandom. And they spell it Pai Zhua. In fact, to quote RangerWiki:

"Toon Disney's Press Release for the season spells the organization's name as Pai Zhuq, making that spelling more common among the fandom. Zhuq, however, is not an existing Chinese word, while zhuǎ actually does translate to "claw". It is possible Zhuq is just a typo."

Therefore, I will be using Pai Zhua in Begotten.

Robin and Marian 4ever: Rocky and Aisha had the first PR child, a young boy named Steve.

dguice: I can't really see Kim as any other color than Pink, Purple, or Red and since Purple and Red are taken already in JF, if she had been a JF ranger, she would have been pink.

And don't hesitate to ask questions, ya'll, cause I do, in fact, like explaining myself. :)
