Kimberly sighed as she felt at ease of her side of the story. She felt it was right to tell them what her teammate did to her during her grueling days of training. However, she couldn't believe the nerve of some of her teammates, especially Aileen. While she sipped her drink, Skull began his side of the story.

Sometime in 1996

"Looking great Kim," he said as he saw Kim doing summersaults across the floor, "that'll be a perfect ten," he hinted. Kimberly made a face as she laughed a little at her friend's remarks. As she glided through the floor, she perfected her routine for the Pan Global trials.

"Can you believe I chose you to come here?" she giggled as she dried herself with a towel, "I guess this what I get for perfecting everything," she said. Skull laughed at his friend as he watched.

A few hours after, Kimberly sat in her room as she started reading a book for class. She had mounds of assignments to work on, but still remained to have an active social life. Skull sat in her room practicing his lines for an up-coming audition. Kim looked up as she heard him recite.

"Skull, do you think I should write Tommy?" she said awkward worry. Kim hadn't heard from Tommy in over a year and she was worried that something may have happened. As she logged onto her email account, she gasped to find out some startling news.

Subject: Tommy's dating Kat

Fr: ApeboyRocko

To: Pinkgymnast

Kimmie,

You're not going to believe me when I tell you this. The other day, I heard a rumor that Ernie saw Kat and Tommy were dancing in the Juice Bar…alone. I'm not sure if I'm buying into this or not.

Write back,

Rocky

Kimberly sighed as a tear escaped her face as she faced Skull. She began to cry as she tried to delete the email. Skull hugged her as she cried into his shoulder. She couldn't believe what was happening. Her high school sweetheart, her best friend and former ranger teammate had found someone else.

"Is it alright to cry?" she asked softly. Skull nodded as he consoled her. Her soft tears entered her eyes as she teared into his shirt. A slight sigh escaped her as she looked at him. "I better email him back, but what should I say?"

"Tell him how you feel Kim. Rocky's a friend that knows that you still love Tommy. You have to let him know the truth about the letter," he stated. Kim nodded as she dried her eyes.

"I couldn't believe what I was writing, but somehow every time I wrote you an email, it always got deleted," Kim said hesitantly. "I wasn't sure how to react because I thought you were always out with Kat."

"I got them Kim. I wasn't sure how you'd take it with me dating Kat," Tommy said in confession. "I know that we're talking about this now and I'm glad we're resolving this." Kim nodded as Skull continued with his story.

"Then, a few weeks before we came here, I sent you an email," he confessed. Tommy and Kat's jaws dropped. "But before you ask why, we wanted to give you this ourselves," he assured them. He handed them a letter that was supposed to be sent out a few days before they arrived.

February 8, 1996

Dear Tommy,

As you may have known, there was a letter sent by somebody that crushed your heart. Recently, it was a plot to manipulate a friend of yours. She was deeply upset on how this affected her. People talked about you and her as if a relationship like that wouldn't last. I couldn't believe it myself when she told me. The reason for this was probably revenge on another teammate or so I hear.

Eventually, your friend and I will be arriving in Angel Grove in a few days. We'll straighten this out. I hope you understand the pain that this caused her.

Sincerely,

Eugene Skullovitch and Kimberly Ann Hart.

"Kim helped with this letter since I felt her pain," the young man hinted. Tommy read the letter over and over as it was freshly written. He couldn't believe it. He just couldn't. He looked at his friends and shook his head.

"Tommy, the way Aileen treated me was like dirt. She manipulated me in front of all the team," Kim sniffled. Tommy walked over to the corner of the Juice Bar. "Tommy, listen to me," she looked at him.

Tommy folded his arms as he looked blankly into the Juice Bar's walls. He sighed as Kim tried to reason with him. Skull tried his best as well. He wanted his friend to believe that the letter was all hoax.

"She's right you know Tommy," he said sternly. "We came back to set the record straight about it. We just want you to hear the side of it before it gets way out of hand."

"Tommy," Kat reassured the young red clad man, "you alright?" she asked him.

Tommy shook his head and left.
