They got dressed and went back downstairs about half an hour later. There was a small café in the library lounge and they both got coffee and sat down together.
"We should never speak of this," Eva said.
"Would you do it again?" Adam asked, meekly.
"Maybe," Eva said, sipping her coffee.
A few minutes later, Billy contacted Alice.
"The communicator is fixed," he said. "The teleportation should be too."
"Oh, thank god," she sighed.
"Are you too alright?" he asked.
"Yes," Eva said. "Thank you."
Billy activated the teleport. The two of them felt energy surge through them, and then they were transported, through another dimension, to the Command Center. It was slower, and they felt every part of it.
The process paused as they approached the barrier between their dimension and the one they used to teleport.
"What's going on?" Eva asked.
Zordon's voice came through the communicator, but it was muffled and patchy.
"The protective safeguards I set up around the teleportation process are keeping you from entering," he said. "The system is still fragile. If you transferred from that dimension to this one as you are, you would be ripped apart."
"What do we do, Zordon?" Adam asked.
"Morph," he said. "The message skipped a beat, then replayed over and over. "Morph! Morph!" The transmission cut off.
Adam and Eva activated their morphers. Eva's morphing process was blocked.
"What's going on?" a now morphed Adam asked.
"I thought everything in this morpher was level, now," Eva sighed. "Zordon said everything in the morphing sequence needed to be balanced."
"Well, you're a part of the morphing sequence too," Adam said. "Maybe you're not balanced."
"Maybe," Eva said. "So…I need to get balanced. Can I do it?"
"I think…no, I know….you can," Adam said. "I believe in you, and I love you."
Eva smiled, squeezing onto her morpher. She backed away from Adam, and called out, "It's Morphing Time!"
Light shone upon her. She took a deep breath, closing her eyes, and concentrated. She felt everything in her world spinning around her. Then, she deciphered the images in her head. Once she saw the picture in full clarity, she felt the colors sucked from it, until it was all purple. Then, it was the solid color: purple.
"Purple Ranger Power!" she called out. Lightning blasted behind her, the energy runoff causing an explosion.
The blast catapulted the two of them back to the Command Center, where the rest of the team was waiting. They demorphed.
"I'm so sorry," Billy said.
"Don't be," Eva said.
"You should be able to morph without problems now," Billy said.
"I'm so glad you're okay," Aisha said to the two of them.
"We all are," Tommy said. Eva smiled.
"Eva, I love you," Adam said.
The End.
