Kimberly

Kim flew her fighter jet towards her former homeland of Angel Grove. After the little mishap with her Uncle falling asleep at the plane's wheel (thanks to Squat and Baboo) and Kim having to fly the plane, he decided to give her some flying lessons. And she loved it.

It was a bit of an adjustment going from the high tech alien technology to the less advanced Earth technology, but she made due except that she missed her stereo. When she entered the air force, they said they had never seen someone so adept at flying. Little did they know she had been flying giant zords whilst still in high school.

"Firebird approaching target," Kim reported into her comm.

"Yellow eagle approaching target," Kim was not alone on this mission, her friend Taylor was with her as well.

"You ready for this?" Kim stole a glance at the plane flying beside hers. Kim knew it wasn't her friend's first battle, but as far as Kim knew this was the first time she was fighting against aliens.

"I was born ready," the two women chuckled as they split and engaged the velocifighters.

Kim dodged the counter fire as she barrel rolled over several of the enemy fighters. Zipping between two she managed to catch their attention, but was too fast so that when they fired they ended up hitting each other. The two fell from the sky in a blaze.

"9."

"11," Kim grinned as Taylor groaned. The two liked to one up each other and see who could blast down more of their enemy. Kim was usually ahead in the count and it frustrated the older women who had been doing this longer than Kim. That is if you didn't count her years as the pink power ranger.

The two began to use some maneuvers that they had worked on in their training, swapping targets and flying over each other. They actually worked really well together.

Their comms crackled to life as they received a message from headquarters, "U.S. Coastguard is heading out your way. Provide cover for their chopper."

"Yes sir," they chorused and changed course with their eyes peeled for the incoming helicopter.

The helicopter arrived and the two fighter jets provided aerial cover as a man dropped down into the water.

"Shit," Taylor swore as a velocifighter slipped passed her and into firing ranger of the U.S. Coastguard's helicopter.

Taylor raced towards the small plane but it was able to outmaneuver her and by the time Kim was able to get herself into a good position to fire on it, it was too late.

The helicopter was hit and spiraled out of control, crashing into the murky depths below.

"Take that!" Kim fired on the perpetrator and he joined the chopper in the water. She tried to see if she could see anyone in the water, but it wasn't like she would be able to do much for them anyway.

In her moment of distraction, the velocifighters were able to surround her and she came under heavy enemy fire. She blasted her way through them, but her plane was damaged and alarms were blaring all throughout the cockpit.

"Where's the button?" She frantically searched the control panel and once she found it she lowered her protective face shield and ejected.

"Firebird down!"

She had managed to steer herself somewhat close to land near some tall buildings but had left her plane to crash over the water so as to cause minimal damage.

Opening her parachute she took a deep breath in order to calm herself. This was nothing like when she was a teenager and went skydiving. First off, she was all alone, very unusual for her. Second, there was no target zone for her to hit, she would be lucky if she found somewhere safe to land.

"Oh no!" feet first she braced herself as she crashed through a window.

Not a graceful landing at all, the judges would have given her zeroes across the board for sure.
