Several weeks had passed by, since the purple man was on TV. All the rangers were still at Kira's house. They were able to keep up with their school work, since the school had put a program on the school website. There weren't even any monster attacks. Was Elsa and Mesogog destroyed? One night after dinner, the rangers were in Trent's room doing homework.
"I wonder how Haley is doing?" asked Ethan.
"I think we are about to find out," declared Conner. "I had my cell phone on vibrate and it looks like I am getting a call from her."
The other three rangers gathered around Conner as he took the phone call.
"Hello,Haley," stated Conner.
"Conner, I hope all is okay for you all," replied Haley. "I tried to call your home, but your mom said you were at Kira's house. She gave me your cell number."
"So, any word from Kim and Dr.O?" asked Conner.
"No, I haven't heard from them!" informed Haley. "The last time I heard from them, was a few weeks ago. It was about the time the purple man appeared."
"Do you think it was Ivan?" asked Conner.
"Oh, yes!" answered Haley. "I've been watching the news. I've heard that the two remaining twin machines are located in Angel Grove or Reefside."
"I want to talk to her!" ordered Kira.
Conner handed Kira his phone.
"Awhile back, Trent got a call from Anton," declared Kira.
"I know,"answered Haley. "He called the Olivers and gave them the same message."
"Have you heard from Anton or Randall?" asked Kira.
"No," answered Haley.
"We were told to call Billy," stated Kira.
"Then, maybe you should call him," suggested Haley.
She gave Kira his number. Then she said goodbye to Haley and they hung up. Kira handed Conner back his phone. They thought about who would be the prefect person to contact Billy. They all thought Ethan would be the perfect one. Ethan started to call Billy.
Billy was in his basement working on the jet jammer. He was hoping to get it finished soon. Billy felt his cell phone vibrate. He answered it.
"Hello," answered Billy.
"Billy, this is Ethan James, I am the blue dino thunder ranger. We just got a call from Haley," said Ethan. "We were told to contact you. She hasn't heard from Kim and Dr. O."
"I haven't either," replied Billy. "The last time that I heard anything was a few days ago. When I talked to him, he said the he was taking Kim to the mall. I've not heard from them since."
"Do you think we should go look for them?" asked Ethan. "They could be in trouble."
"I'd say that is good chance," answered Billy. "Maybe two of you should go."
"Conner and I will go," declared Ethan. "Kira and Trent will stay here."
"Let me know if you find them," declared Billy.
"We will!" answered Ethan." We will call you soon Billy."
Ethan and Conner climbed out the window and morphed into the blue and red rangers. Kira and Trent wondered if they should have went with them. Trent thought they needed to stay at her house.
Meanwhile, Tommy and Kimberly were in a cold room. They had been there for 2 days. Both of them were caught by Zeltrax and were taken to Mesogog's layer. But, Mesogog and Elsa were gone. Zeltrax was working for Ivan. Niether one of them had seen Ivan or Zeltrax, because they were at the lowest lever of the layer in the dungeon. Tommy had been walking around the room for several hours trying to find a way out.
"Tommy, I don't think we are going to find away," stated Kimberly. "Haven't you noticed, that the only window is on the door. There are bars on the windows."
Tommy didn't answer. He was too busy trying to find away out. Tommy felt guilty because they had been caught. After several weeks of staying in doors, Tommy decided thought all of the vilians were gone.
Flash back
"Kim, I got an e-mail from Randall. The potion that Randall and Anton used on themselves, to prevent them from being Mesogog and Elsa must have worked."
"Tommy, how do you know?"
"I just an e-mail from Randall."
"Tommy, what is about?"
"She told us that the prom is coming up and all the teachers have to help chaperone. Randall is hoping that the state of emergency will be over soon as we can return to school."
He convinced Kimberly to go to the mall. They went and the there weren't very many people at the mall. Tommy thought Kimberly would be happy because she wouldn't have to wait in line. She tried on several dresses. Kimberly finally picked out her dress. It was made from satin and silk. It was salmon pink, it had one strap, but it was in the shape of flowers. The skirt was long and hit the floor. Tommy picked out his clothes. He got a black tux, a white shirt, and a salmon pink vest and tie. They paid for their clothes and left the shop. Tommy remembered hearing that there was a new youth center next to the mall. He really wanted to go try it out, because it had several room with in door pools that people could reserve. There was also a spa, workout center, and a juice bar. Tommy remembered talking to Kim about it.
"Kim can we go to the new youth center? I have heard that they've got a spa, several rooms with pools, a juice bar, and a work out center."
"Tommy, I don't know. Even if did go, we wouldn't have the proper clothes to go swimming."
"It's okay, I'll buy us some clothes."
He remembered going back into the clothes store with Kimberly. Tommy remembered buying a pair black swim trunks, and a green shirt, he remembered that Kim bought a pink breakwater tank, black Sea Spray board shorts, and a new pair of sandals. After they left the mall, they went to the new youth center. Kimberly went into the locker room to change her clothes. After she changed her clothes, she decided that she was going to spa. She went to the spa and put a robe on over her clothes. Kimberly took a seat in the chair.
Tommy was drinking a smoothie. He heard a scream. It sounded like Kimberly was in danger. He ran into the spa and saw Zeltrax had her. Tommy demanded that Zeltrax left her alone.
"You don't order me Tommy!" declared Zeltrax. "I know work for Ivan Ooze. I've been sent to get the two rangers who defeated him last time."
"Why do you want us?" demanded Tommy.
"Ivan wants to put you both in a snow globe, like he did to Rita and Zedd," answered Zeltrax. "I may have a change of heart, if you do what I say. If you decide to go along with me, I will make sure that you don't see Ivan."
"What do I have to do?" asked Tommy.
"You and the pink ranger have to agree to come with me," stated Zeltrax."
"Where are you taking us?" asked Tommy.
"To the bottom of the Messogog's lair," answered Zeltrax. "So ,what are you going to do?"
"I'll come with you," answered Tommy.
Zeltrax released Kimberly. He ordered them to walk through the vortex. So they did. They came out at Mesogog's lair. Tommy and Kim followed Zeltrax to the basement. He opened a door with bars on window. They were ordered to go in there. Neither one of them fought him, they just went into the room. Zeltrax shut the door and locked it.
End of Flashback
"Tommy,Tommy, are you okay?"
Tommy turned around and looked at Kim. It was hard for him to answer her. If he didn't insist to go to the youth center, they wouldn't be in that dungeon. He felt worse because he was dressed warmer than her. He was still in his khaki's, black tee, and tan shirt. All Kim had on was her tank top, shorts, and sandals and her robe (that she got at the spa).
"Tommy, I know that you can hear me."
"Kim, what is it?" he said angrily.
"Why are you acting this way? You haven't been yourself since we've been here."
"IF I DIDN'T INSIST THAT WE WENT TO THAT NEW YOUTH CENTER, WE WOULDN'T BE HERE!"
"You didn't know. Tommy, you just wanted to us to have some time to ourselves. Since, we became rangers, we haven't had time to our selves. Is there anything that I can do that would make you feel better."
Tommy removed his tan shirt and gave it Kim. He had long sleeves on anyway, so it didn't matter to him. He took of his shoes and removed his socks. He gave the socks to Kimberly. Then he put his shoes back on.
"Are you sure you want to do this? I know you are cold too."
"IT DOESN'T MATTER TO ME ANY MORE! JUST PUT THEM ON!"
Kimberly removed her robe and took of her sandals and put on his black knee socks. Then she put on his tan shirt. She hated it when he was angry. Kimberly placed her robe down on the floor, so they'd have a warm place to sit.
"Tommy, come over here."
He went over and took a seat by Kimberly. Neither one of them said anything. Kim just hoped Tommy was okay. She knew that he hated that they were in a cold room. There was only a bench, chains on the wall, and a small bathroom.
"Kim, I don't know what came over me," apologized Tommy. "I just don't know what to do. We've been here for two days."
"Tommy are you afraid that we will be here for a long time?" asked Kimberly.
"Yes, I am," answered Tommy.
"Why didn't you say anything?" asked Kimberly. "I would have understood."
"It's not that simple," answered Tommy. "I'm the only one who has my morpher. I am not using it, because I don't want them to take it."
"I've got mine too," answered Kimberly.
He saw she still had on her sliver and pink bracelet.
"Why didn't you say anything?" asked Tommy.
"Same reason why you didn't," answered Kimberly.
They heard someone coming down the stairs so the quit talking. It sounded like two people were coming down the stairs. Both Tommy and Kim had a feeling who it was. The door opened and familiar person walked in the room.
"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THE OOZE IS BACK!" shouted Ivan Ooze. "I see we have company."
"They've been here for two days," answered Zeltrax.
"I already knew they had been here for two days," declared Ivan.
Tommy felt Kim jump. He slowly grabbed her hand and he held it as tight as he could. He was just as scared as she was. They never thought that they'd see Ivan again.
"Ivan what do you want?" asked Tommy.
"I heard a rumor that there two of the rangers (that I fought 9 years ago) still had power," answered Ivan. " I asked Zeltrax to bring you here, so the other four rangers wouldn't have their mentors to help them."
As Ivan spoke, Kimberly slowly put her free hand behind her back, so he wouldn't see her morpher. Tommy did the same thing.
"Ivan, shouldn't we make them feel more at home?" asked Zeltrax.
"I was thinking about that," answered Ivan. " I know just the thing."
He stood in front of them and released a lot of ooze at them. From the neck down, they both were covered in ooze.
"Why did you use ooze for?" asked Zeltrax.
"It will keep them from escaping," answered Ivan. "Well, rangers, I'd love to stay and chat. But, I have to dig up the two remaining twin machines."
Ivan and Zeltrax both left the room. Both Tommy and Kimberly were stuck to the wall. They both felt helpless.
"Kim, are you okay?" asked Tommy.
"Yes, are you?" answered Kimberly.
"Are you scared?" asked Tommy.
"No," answered Kimberly.
"Why?" asked Tommy.
"I've got you," answered Kimberly. "Are you?"
"No, I got you," answered Tommy. "I'm worried about the younger rangers though. They can't take on Ivan, he's too strong."
"I realize that too," replied Kimberly. "How are we going to get out of here?"
"I don't know?" answered Tommy. "We have our morphers, but I don't think we should use them right away."
"Do you think that they would work?" asked Kimberly.
"More than likely," answered Tommy.
Okay readers, what would you like to see next? I promise to make an epic battle. Only Tommy and Kim will fight Ivan. The younger rangers will take on Zeltrax. How should Tommy and Kim get free from the ooze? please leave a review and tell me what you want to see next. I will take all of the reviews into consideration.
