A/N: I don't own anything but the concept. I had so much fun writing this chapter and I hope that everyone likes this chapter.

"Tommy I can't believe you would say that!" Kim screamed.
"How long are you going to let them go at it?" Hayley asked the former rangers. They were all downstairs listening to Tommy and Kim upstairs. Hayley knew that she wasn't going up there because it wasn't her place.
"I'm not going up there now. Do you hear how mad she is? You know her Hayley and you know that none of us will brave that storm." Rocky said as he looked at the others.
They were all shaking their heads along with him. Tommy could handle his wife since he was the one who had made her mad anyway. He told her that he didn't want her out there fighting that he couldn't watch out for her and the Dinos, that comment had been an hour ago. She was still spitting mad an hour later. Tommy was handling it well though since he was still alive and yelling back at his wife.
"How are we going to get home? I don't want to get up there either." Ethan said as the others looked at him.
The Dinos had never heard Dr. O get that loud before and they would have guess that Kim turned into a raving shrew when she was mad.
"Who are you?" Rocky asked just now noticing the kids in the corner.
"Oh guys I'm sorry. These are the Dinos Connor in Red, Ethan in Blue, and Kira in Yellow. Guys this is Jason, Trini, Rocky, Aisha, Adam, Tanya, Zack, Angela, Billy, and Kat." Hayley said as she made the introductions.
"Okay I recognize all of you but her." Connor said pointing at Angela.
"She wasn't a ranger but she is married to Zack. He wanted to her to know everything and not have any secrets. She has known since high school that all of us were rangers." Trini supplied with a smile. She knew that this was probably a lot for them to take in, in such a short period of time.
"Okay but what about us leaving?" Ethan asked again looking around the room.
"You can sneak out the back, I guess." Hayley said as she heard Kim scream again.
It also sounded like Kim threw something at Tommy, whatever it was crashed against the mantle causing the Dinos to flinch and the others to shake their heads. Would that boy never learn that Kim could take care of herself without his help? She knew that Tommy wanted to protect his wife at all costs but sometimes he was too much.

"Kim this is for your own good." He said again trying to reason with her without making her even madder at him.
"Did you forget that I was a ranger before you and that I have been a ranger longer than you?" She threw at him. She paced the length of their living room while he stood by the door.
They had been having this fight for an hour now with no one giving in. He watched her pace back and forth until he spoke again.
"Kim, they are new to this." He said as she swung around to pace back.
"I know but I'm not. They can learn from both of us." She said louder than necessary.
"Kim, I don't want you back out there." He said to her back.
"I don't care what you want. I didn't want you to be back in spandex again but I didn't have a say because the gem chose you. Well now the Pink gem has chosen me. I'm going to be in the next fight either by your side or someone else's but I will be back out there." She said as she swung back around to face him and stopped. She crossed her arms across her chest and stood there.
He knew that that was a bad sign. He straightened up and mimicked her stance. He hoped that she would smile at him and this would all go away but she didn't. He sighed and walked over to her knowing that he was about to compromise because he loved her.
"Kimberly, I love you and I don't know what I would do without you. I know you can do this. You are the Pink Ranger to me. I never saw anyone else as the Pink Ranger and you know that. The gem didn't stand a chance against you because you were the Original Pink. I just don't want anything to happen to you. I can't lose you." He said as he placed his hands on her arms.
She looked up at him and sighed. He played on her emotions. She knew that he fought dirty when he wanted something.
"Tommy, you don't fight fair." She said as she uncrossed her arms.
"I know but when it comes to you all bets are off." He said as he pulled her close. He wrapped her in his arms and sighed.
"You won't lose me either. What are we going to do? We have to teach the Dinos and face our friends." She said against his chest.
"I don't know but Jason is going to take this hard." He sighed. He knew that everyone was waiting on them in the basement.
They wouldn't want to face Kimberly but they wouldn't leave either. They had questions that only he could answer. He knew that it was long overdue. It was time to bring them back in the ranger loop.
"Yes he is. I guess that we need to get down there and assure them that I have not killed you for that comment." She said with a laugh. She stepped out his arms and grabbed his hand.
They walked hand in hand down to the basement to face their friends.

"I don't hear anything. Do you think that we should check on them?" Adam asked. Everyone just looked at him.
"If she has killed Tommy, I want to let her settle down a little." Kat said with a smile.
"I haven't killed him yet, Kat but that might not last." Kim said as they appeared at the bottom of the stairs.
"Well Tommy I think you should thank your lucky stars that she loves you." Jason said as he stood up.
The Dinos eased to the back not knowing what Kim might do but wanted to hear what Dr. O would tell his friends.
"Okay well as you all know by now Tommy and I are back in spandex. While Tommy was on Mercer Island, he searched for the Dino gems unbeknownst to me. The five of us have these gems now. Tommy and Hayley built the morphers and cycles for these powers." Kim said.
"What? Tommy helped build something?" Rocky asked before he started laughing.
"Yes as Kim said I helped Hayley but as you know she did a lot of the work. I provided input from our days as rangers." He said as he punched Rocky in the shoulder.
Everyone started laughing and asking questions to either Hayley or Tommy. The Dinos knew that they needed to get home before it got too late leaving everyone else sitting in the basement.
"How are they?" Jason asked as Kim came back downstairs. She had walked the Dinos out while everyone continued to talk.
"They are young but they will learn since they now have two former rangers helping them." He said as he looked over at Kim.
"Who is the bad guy?" Adam asked him when everything settled back down.
"His name is Mesogogg. I believe that he was the one to blow up Mercer Island and killed Anton Mercer. I'm not sure on that but I know that he is after the Dino gems." He said as he jumped up.
"What's going on?" Kim asked him as he smiled back at her.
Hayley knew what he was doing when he pushed a button on his desk. A glass case rose out of the table in front of the others. The top opened to reveal a pink morpher.
"I believe my dear that this is yours." He said as he walked back over to the case and handed her the morpher.
"How did you build it so fast?" She asked him as she put it on her wrist and popped her gem inside.
"I told Hayley about the others gems and she built them." He said as he pointed to Hayley.
"This is all well and great but what about us?" Jason asked.
"What do you mean?" Tommy asked.
"How does this affect us? If we are attacked are we supposed to act like we don't know how to fight and let them captured us or do we fight?" He asked.
"I don't think that I could even tell you not to fight. You know your limits and I expect you to follow those limits. We all have our communicators." He said looking at Jason.
"So don't get captured, got it." Rocky said which caused everyone to laugh.
"Yes Rocko don't get caught. I would hate for you to mess up my record." Kim said with a laugh. She reached over and hugged him close.
"Okay serious though can those kids do it?" Aisha asked.
"Yea I think they can. They remind me of us long ago. I feel a little like Zordon to them. It is weird having all the answers for them. They look to me and Kim instead of standing by our sides like you all did." He said with a serious tone.
Kim knew that this was hard on him. They had to train a new set of rangers and learn all about a new bad guy. They talked on into the night until Trini noticed what time it was. She knew that after the day Tommy and Kim had they needed rest.
"Jase we need to get going. I have an early class in the morning." She said as she stood up.
They all decided that it was time to leave. Tommy and Kim stood in the door waving to their friends. They stepped back in and closed the door.
"Are you okay?" Kim asked him. She walked over to the couch and sat down. She patted the seat beside her for him.
"Yea I'm just worried about you and the kids." He said as he sat down.
She leaned into his side to comfort him.
"Tommy, don't worry about me, remember I can do this and I can help you with the kids. They are young but so were we. Zordon taught us basic things while we learned the rest by doing. We know this better than anyone heck we have seen the most battle time out of anyone of the past rangers." She said to him.
"I know and I know that you can do this probably better than me but I will still worry." He told her as he leaned his head against the top of hers.
"I know you will as will I. This is going to be hard for all of us. I thought when we laid down our Turbo morphers that we would never wear the spandex again. I should've known better because we attract the powers. I think they seek us out because we take them over and over again." She said.
"I didn't mean to put you through this. I wanted to protect you from this." He said as he put his arm around her.
"I know you did but I knew when I married you that it would never be boring. We can protect each other." She said to him. They sat there at talked for an hour before they got up and went to bed. They knew that this might be the last quiet night for a while. She knew it was wrong but she couldn't wait for her first battle back in the spandex. She wanted to know if she still had it.

"They found the Pink gem, master and Dr. Oliver's wife has it." Elsa said as she walked into the room.
"I know and you failed me yet again. Did you know that the Pink gem was inside the White gem?" He asked her.
"No I did not and we did not detect anything out of the ordinary with the White gem." She told him as Zeltrax walked into the room.
"So now we have two veteran rangers along with three children that have my gems. I want those gems back, Elsa." Mesogogg said as he walked out.
"I guess that means that you are on the chopping block." Zeltrax said from behind her.
"No it means that we're on the chopping block." She snarled at him. She stalked out of the room. She would get those gems starting with the newest Pink Ranger's gem.
Tommy wouldn't know what hit him when his wife was taken away from him. It was the key to the newest White Ranger's undoing. The only problem with Elsa's plan was that she was underestimating the newest Pink Ranger.

Okay what did everyone think? Please let me know.
