"So where is she exactly?" Tommy asked as Billy looked over the scans yet again. He could definitely agree on a general vicinity, but he could not agree on the exact place of where she was. He had no experience with this exact region of the universe and was even lucky that the scans had picked her life energy up as it seemed to be a little bit off.

"I'm looking, but I still haven't been able to figure it out," Billy said as Tommy threw the chair into the wall and the rangers scrambled away. They had been called in about three hours ago, but they were getting nowhere fast right now.

Billy and Hayley had been able to give them a roundabout location, but they had not been able to give them a way in, a way out, or a plan that would satisfy Tommy's qualifications. Ultimately, they thought it would come down to him just going in on his own, but they weren't stupid enough to say that now. They would wait at least two more hours before they would even suggest that to him, as he seemed insistent that they go get her, not him this time.

"Billy, it's been at least four hours," Tommy said as Billy nodded his head. He was aware of how long it had been since Kimberly had disappeared and in all reality, he was sure that it was much longer than four hours, probably more like a day at this point. The problem was he couldn't see a way to get them in and out that would guarantee that the person that went in would be safe as well. Sure he could just send Tommy, but he did not like the idea of trapping the both of them in an unknown world, although he was sure that it would make Tommy feel better if he was there with her, in his mind he could protect her someway.

"Well, what do you suggest? Because I don't think that it's smart sending you in there so that you can be all by yourself without a way out Tommy," Billy said as Tommy looked over at him as the Dino Rangers looked towards the stairs and made a very small attempt at heading out, but as they turned to run they were met by Hayley, who merely shook her head, forcing them to turn back around.

"It wouldn't be the first time Billy," Tommy said as Billy just shook his head.

"It's different this time," Hayley said as Tommy turned to face her, surprised that she would throw his own words back at him. "You said it yourself, it's different this time and there is absolutely nothing that you can do about it."

"Come on, you can't just leave her in there!" Tommy yelled as Billy and Hayley stood side-by-side.

"No, we can't, but we're not letting you go in there just to almost get yourself killed. We've all seen that too many times Tommy," Billy said as Hayley barely nodded as Tommy walked over to the couch and plopped down. The only thing that he could do was hope that Kim was fine and that when they finally got to go in that they wouldn't be dealing with a half-dead woman.

"Let me go you ugly lizard," Kimberly spat as she struggled against her bonds and Mesogogg only spat in her face.

"We're waiting on your pretty boy to come save you," Mesogogg said as Kim looked up at him.

"Leave Tommy out of this!" Kimberly yelled as Mesogogg, Elsa, and Zeltrax all were surprised by her strength and her anger as well. They had only thought that Tommy had a connection to her, not the other way around as well. It seemed that it was going to be fun to torture her, unlike all the times in the past when they had tried to torture people, who knew absolutely nothing and cared nothing for him.

"Ah, looks like we hit a nerve, didn't we? How did you know that it was Tommy we were after, not one of your other little friends?" Mesogogg asked as Kim looked up at him in shock. He seemed to know much more than he was letting on about their relationship and although she did not want to dig, she felt she needed to know what she was up against.

"How do you even know about him?" Kim asked as Mesogogg sneered. She was not going to make it out of here, so he might as well tell her everything.

"Well, we saw the two of you kiss the other night and I had been trying to think of ways to get at Dr. Thomas Oliver for years and you, my dear, are better than anything else I have ever discovered," Mesogogg said as Kim's eyes widened. To know that these people had been paying so much attention to Tommy scared her. It made her wonder what else he knew.

"That was a mistake," Kim said as Mesogogg cackled. If that had been a mistake, then he was a good little boy. The two of them cared about each other more than anything else in the world and they just had to get used to the idea.

"It may have been a mistake, but I can guarantee that he is desperately trying to find you by now and you are desperately hoping that he will before it is too late," Mesogogg said as he leaned down and whispered it in her ear. She could not help the involuntary shiver that ran down her spine and she knew he was right. She knew that was exactly what Tommy was doing right now. If he wasn't, it was only because he didn't know about it yet.

"You might as well let me go, he's not going to come," Kim lied as Mesogogg shook his head.

"Oh, he will, it's only a matter of time Kimberly," Mesogogg said as he turned to leave the room. "I think it is time for some stimulus to remind her of why she wants him to come get her."
"Yes, I agree," Elsa leered as Kimberly looked up at her with wide eyes. That was when a machine much like a ray gun appeared from the ceiling and she could only stare at it.

"Don't kill her Elsa, just remind her of why," Mesogogg instructed as he left the room and Elsa cackled. This was going to be far too much fun, she did not like Oliver at all and to torture his little whore was something she would enjoy.

"Dr. O, calm down," Kira said as Tommy looked over at her from his pacing and just shook his head.

"How can you tell me to calm down?" Tommy all but roared as Kira glared over at him.

"You wouldn't be in this position if the two of you would have fucking talked this out last year," Kira said, coldly, as Tommy's head snatched towards her as Billy and Hayley looked at each other. Leave it to a teenager to put Tommy in his place.

"It's not that I didn't try…" Tommy started as Kira cut him off.

"If you wanted her as bad as you do right now, nothing would have stopped you from having her, not even her own stubbornness. It's time you get your shit together or this won't be the last time that you sit here and desperately try to find her. And if this keeps happening, one day, you'll be too late, Dr. O and you will have no one to blame but yourself," Kira said and then turned and ran from the Command Center and Conner quickly followed her out. He honestly did not want to stay for the fireworks show that was about to occur.

"I'm going to…" Ethan began lamely and then ran for the stairs as well. He had been abandoned by the others before, but this time was different. He knew that he could not face Dr. O right now, considering the tirade that was sure to come.

"Tommy…let it go, she's just a teenager," Billy said as Tommy turned around to face his friends.

"I'd let it go if she wasn't right, Billy," Tommy said as he sat down and closed his eyes. He had been desperately trying to keep himself from breaking down or thinking about her too much, but he had officially been pushed over the edge and there was nothing that he could do about it. "If I had acted like I gave a damn about her, we wouldn't be in this situation. We would be together, not fighting for me to just have a chance to save her."

"Don't blame yourself, the both of you did this," Hayley said, soothingly, as Tommy just shook his head.

"I should have never accepted that crap from her in high school, I should have gone after her. None of this ever would have happened if I had just gone after her," Tommy said as Hayley placed her hand on his shoulder and he looked back at her.

"You were a teenager then, you can't blame yourself for not doing something that most adults wouldn't do, but you have to make it right now Tommy. If you don't, Kira's right, this will happen again," Hayley said as Tommy stood and walked towards the stairs.

"Just come tell me when you've found something," Tommy said as Hayley and Billy exchanged a glance. Tommy had never done anything like that when Kimberly had been captured before, but he also had never been told off before either. No one else was brave enough to say that sort of thing to him when this happened, but maybe they should have. Maybe it would have solved their problem much sooner, but as it was, they all just had to wait and hope that Billy and Hayley would be able to figure out what was going on and more importantly how to get to her.
