A/N: Okay I'm back, sorry I have been busy. Be sure to check out my new story Foster Mermaid Rangers.
Chapter Eighteen
While Tommy was wrangling the girls, Kim was trying to figure out what the others were doing at the cafe already. The concert wasn't until later that evening and it didn't take them all day to set up and run sound checks. Also Adam didn't come to these concerts very often, except when Tanya was on tour, he usually stayed home, especially when it was just a day trip and she would be back home that night.
"Where's Summer?" she asked concerned, if Adam was there just to see his wife perform wouldn't they had brought their daughter with them as well.
Adam shrugged, "Mom's bringing her over later, no point of having her under foot all the time."
Kim nodded and was about to ask why they were there so early when Kaylee, who was the only one there that was not a ranger, or knew the rangers identities beat her to it, "Why did we set up so early the concert isn't until this evening?"
Adam looked guilty as he answered, "Jason asked us to come early and keep an eye on Kim at work until her ex-husband is captured, again," he said the last word as a sigh.
Hayley arrived at that moment from the back room, "You know, Tommy called me yesterday about that, starting tomorrow Kim will be armed at all times."
Kaylee frowned, "Okay, Kira, you seem to know these people, why does Kim need to be armed and protected."
Kira shrugged, "The only reason Kim isn't in Witness Protection is because Silverback will figure out where she is and it would be impossible for the power rangers to protect her."
"But there isn't any power rangers around here," Kaylee pointed out.
The others snorted, "And how do you know that?" Kim asked, "For all you know I could have been replaced with a pink ranger to trick Luke."
The friends were goofing off when the door opened and a man walked in. The moment Kim saw who it was she stiffened and started to hyperventilate. Adam quickly pulled her behind the counter and forced her to crouch down, flames dancing in his eyes. It had taken Tommy three months to remove the pain and mistrust from Kim's eyes and Luke had to come along and ruin everything.
Luke looked around before stating, "I'm looking for my wife, she works here, name is Kimberly," apparently Luke didn't realize that his face was plastered on every news channel in the United States.
Kira let out a growl that would make the evil green ranger proud of her, "If you take one step closer I'm going to feed you to my boyfriend's Zord!" she shouted, until she remembered that Kaylee was there and giving her a weird look, "At least I would if Conner was the Red Dino Thunder Ranger and had a Tyrannosaurus Rex Zord to feed him to."
Everybody took a step away from Kira as Hayley stormed up to Luke, "The Power Rangers are on their..."
Before Hayley could finish, Adam came back from behind the counter morphed as the green zeo ranger, "I'm here," he announced.
Tommy was trying to get Ellie dress, clean up Inya who had smeared her food in her hair, and coax Ninja down from the top of the cupboard when the phone rang. He quickly answered the phone, "Just thought you would like to know that Zeo Ranger four just showed up at my cafe," Hayley stated when he said hi.
Tommy started seeing red, how dare Luke show up at the cafe, that was the only reason he could think of for Adam to show up in uniform, "I'm going to Kill Luke."
"Is this before or after Kira feeds him to Conner's zord?"
"You mean the zord that self destructed in its last battle?" Tommy clarified.
Hayley paused for a second, "That was a pretty cool threat, until I learned that it wasn't plausible."
Tommy sighed, "I'm thinking that maybe I should take the girls away for a while, take them on vacation for a couple of weeks, give the rest of you time to deal with Luke."
Hayley nodded, "That might be a good idea, I"m going to go see if Adam killed Luke yet." with that Hayley hung up.
"We are probably going to have a big party when Luke finally gets whats coming at him," Tommy muttered, before turning around and looking down at Jaslee's face, "If you can go anywhere, where will you go?"
"Disneyland!" Jaslee responded, eagerly, "I want to meet Cinderella! Are we going to Disneyland for my birthday?"
Tommy groaned, he had forgot that Jaslee's fifth birthday was coming up, "Yes, I was thinking about taking you guys to Disneyland. Won't that be fun?"
Jaslee jumped up and down, "I love, love, love it!"
Kim stared at were Luke had been a moment ago, still shaking, "That was close, thanks Ad..." Tanya cleared her throat and nodded to Kaylee, who had once again been forgotten, "Green Ranger," she finished.
"No problem," Adam stated, "Now if you'll excuse me, I'll sneak out the back," he added, sliding behind the counter, into the backroom and ordering himself to power down.
Kaylee frowned as Adam appeared out of the backroom, "To bad he didn't kill him, am I right?" he said, cheerfully. Where had he disappeared to when the ranger showed up, only to show up when he left. It was like he was hiding from the ranger. but why?
"Let's get Kim home," Adam insisted, wanting to get her out of there as fast as possible. He knew that Luke wasn't going to give up easily, but neither were they, and they were a lot more stubborn than he was.
They will get through this, no matter what.
A/N: wow that was a close call, hopefully the power rangers can get rid of him while Tommy spills the girls, Uh, I mean take them to Disneyland. please review.
