"Ms. Hart, doesn't know about my police records, regarding cheating methods in the Pan Global Games, overtraining athletes, harassing, and kidnapping," Coach Schmidt said over the phone.

"I can't believe that I was so stupid," Kimberly gasped as she squeezed Tommy's hand. "I wish I believed you."

"Kim, we can talk about this later," Tommy whispered. "Let's head back inside before he sees us." They quickly ran from the bush to the entrance to the youth center.

"Just great the door is locked," Kimberly complained when the door wouldn't open. "I don't have my communicator the wrist band broke and Billy is putting a new band on it."

Tommy looked down at his wrist and remembered that he didn't have his communicator. "I took mine off and put in my book bag because of the test we were having in Ms. Appleby's class," Tommy whispered back. "It went off class one time and she made me give it to her in class. Do you remember that?"

"Yeah, that's when your communicator was messed up. What are we going to do now?"

Tommy started to knock on the door hoping to get someone's attention. But, everyone was in class or at lunch hanging out with their friends. "Kim, I guess we're going to have to wait until the bell rings," Tommy said as he turned around to face Kimberly. But, he was in for a surprise when he turned around. Kimberly wasn't standing next to him. He began to feel his heart pounding on the bars of his rib cage and fear was running all through his body. Coach Schmidt must have grabbed her, while he was knocking on the door. Getting back into school was the last thing on Tommy mind. All that mattered to him was finding Kimberly. "COACH SCHMIDT, YOU CAN'T HIDE! I WILL FIND YOU!"

Meanwhile, Coach Schmidt was hiding in the school's storage shed, with his wife, Patti. Patti looked like a toad with coal black hair. "I brought Ms. Hart to you like you wanted me to. You'd better make sure we don't get caught," she hissed through clenched teeth. "Geoffrey was just arrested by Lt. Stone."

"My twin brother is so dumb," Coach Schmidt laughed as he kissed his wife on the cheek. "Two boys have been following me around all day. I needed someone to take my place in jail. So, I had my stupid brother call the police and tell them that the spy was at the Angel Grove High Football field. He stayed there like I instructed and got arrested. Now, I have my name clear."

"MMMMMPH!"

They both turned to look at helpless and worn out Kimberly. Her hands were pulled behind her back and a tight Velcro strip was wrapped tightly around both wrists and she had a tight Velcro wrapped around both of her ankles. Plus, she had a strap around her shoulders, legs, and knees. She was wearing a black leather head harness on her face. It fastened around her head, cheeks, and chin with straps. It prevented her from moving her head or neck. The lower part of her face was covered and there was a flexible pad over her mouth. The pad had a huge hole in the middle where silicone sphere was attached to the harness. It appeared like Kimberly was bobbing for apples because the sphere was shoved back behind her teeth.

"Did we give you permission to speak?!" Coach Schmidt asked in a sweet nasty voice as he walked over to Kimberly. "I think we need to have a talk about my expectations."

"MMMMMPH!"

Coach Schmidt lifted Kimberly off the floor and sat her in chair. "I can't let you off the hook," Coach Schmidt smirked at Kimberly. He pulled a chair up and sat down in front of her. "I know that Mr. Oliver was finally able to expose my secret to you. Now, I must worry about one extra person ratting me out to the police. So, I must take you and Tommy to my secret hideout. Both of you will be put away for safe keeping."

"MMMMMPH!"

"Kimberly, I think it's great that you are now speaking a new language. But, I'm afraid that no one else speaks MMMMMPH and we can't understand you," Coach Schmidt smiled as he watched Kimberly begin to drool uncontrollably and tire herself out from making noise. "I request that you start answering me in English instead of that funny language you made up."

"MMMMMMPH!"

Coach Schmidt slapped Kimberly has hard his could across the face. "I told you to answer me in English! Coach Schmidt yelled as he punched Kimberly in the eye. She cried out in pain and he punched her in the nose and her noise started bleeding. "You must be pretty stupid!"

Tears started running down Kimberly's face as felt a lot of pain and discomfort from being hit and punched by Coach Schmidt and from having her mouth stretched out. "Dry up those crocodile tears!" Patti yelled as she watched Kimberly's tears run down her face. She watched Coach Schmidt put a blind fold over Kimberly's eyes.

"Patti, I think it's time we put our plan in action," Coach Schmidt suggested as he threw Kimberly over his shoulder. "I can't afford to let Tommy walk around free any longer."

Tommy walked all over the Angel Grove High campus looking for Kimberly. Where was she? Was she okay? He was willing to do whatever it took to get Kimberly back. He saw Bulk and Skull walking outside in their police uniforms. "What are you two up to?" Tommy asked when he saw them walk over to him. "I thought you were talking with Lt. Stone."

"We were," Bulk explained. "We've been informed there is a woman on the school campus posing as a police officer."

"And we are going to arrest her," Skull finished. "The person that was arrested, turned out to be Coach Schmidt's twin brother Geoffrey. He is in trouble for lying to a police officer and he slapped Lt. Stone. And I forgot to mention that his brain is the size of a peanut."

They spotted a woman dressed in a police uniform walking over to Tommy. "That's the woman," Bulk grinned as they saw the woman. "She really does look like a toad."

"Tommy, we're going to go talk to the woman," Skull declared as they went to talk to the woman. "Stay away from her."

He watched Bulk and Skull go over to the woman. Lt. Stone showed up and went over to Bulk and Skull. "Why don't you come to the police station to answer some questions," Lt. Stone lied as the woman followed him to the police car. "I heard that you are one of the best police officers in the city." All of them got in the police car and took off to the police station.

He noticed there was a U-Haul parked at the edge of the football field and it was open. Tommy went over to the U-Haul and stepped inside. The door slammed behind him and the truck started moving. It was dark in there other than a few lanterns that were lighting up the place. His heart break broke when he saw Kimberly laying in the corner restrained. Tommy quickly went over to her and kneeled down to removed the straps and mask off her body.

She started to move like a fish out of water, when she felt someone remove the ankle cuffs. "Beautiful, it's just me," Tommy assured her as he removed her blind fold. "I'm going to remove the mask." Kimberly quit moving and he slowly unfastened the straps that were holding the mask in place. Then he gently removed the mask. Her left eye was black and there was make up and tried blood all over her face. Both corners of her mouth were sore and had some cuts.

Kimberly slowly opened her eyes and saw her falcon kneeling next to her. "Tommy!" Kimberly cried as her heart leapt with joy. "I'm so happy to see you." Tommy gently removed the hand cuffs.

Tommy reached into his pocket and go out a small pack of sanitizer cleaning wipes and began to clean off her face. "Kim, what happened?" Tommy asked in a worried tone. He scooped her up in his arms and sat in the back corner of the truck. "Did that idiot do something to you?"

"And his wife Patti," Kimberly finished as she began to feel warm and safe when Tommy wrapped his strong arms around her. "Patti grabbed me by the mouth while you were knocking on the door to try to get us back in the building. She took me to the school's storage shed and Coach Schmidt was there waiting. They immediately restrained me and put that muzzle on me. I was crying out for help. Coach Schmidt slapped me across the face, punched me in the eye, and then he punched me in the nose."

"I hate that man so much!" Tommy grumbled and his face turned red with rage. "I want to hurt him."

"Tommy, we're going to be taken to his hide out and we're going to be locked his basement," Kimberly warned in a fearful tone. "From now on, it is just me and you. We won't see anyone else again."

His heart sank when he heard that news. For the first time since he lost his powers as the green ranger, Tommy felt powerless. Neither one of them had their morphers or communicators. This was one time they were on their own until they were rescued or found a way to escape. All he had was the clothes on his back and Kimberly. "We'll be okay," he promised her and he tightened his grip around Kimberly.

"How do you know we're going to be okay?" Kimberly asked with tears streaming down her face when she looked up into his worried eyes. "We've never been through anything like this. No one knows where to start looking for us."

Kimberly did have a point and that worried him. Looking into her eyes, he knew he had to tell her something to give her some hope. "We love each other and we'll take care of each other," Tommy quickly said. He felt Kimberly hug him tighter and she laid her head on his chest. Just having her with him made him feel safe and protected.
