Tommy watched as Kimberly landed on her feet from swinging on the uneven bars. As she headed to the balance beam, Tommy walked over there. He looked in a directions making sure Coach Schmidt wasn't around. Right before they entered the competition, he spotted Coach Schmidt hanging around outside.
"If I can't have her no one can!" Coach Schmidt shouted as he walked over to the balance beam. "Your gymnastics days are over."
"Hey you can't be here!" shouted one of the judges. "Only her coach can be here!"
"I told you if I can't be her coach, then no one can," Coach Schmidt repeated as he started shake the balance beam.
"Tommy!" Kimberly shouted as she started to loose her balance. Tommy held out his arms and she jumped into them knocking them both down.
"Kim, are you okay?" Tommy asked.
"My wrist," Kimberly answered. She looked up and saw police officers running in and grabbing Coach Schmidt. One of them handcuffed him. "I think it's broken."
"Can you continue?" Tommy questioned as he got up and lifted her up into a bridal style position.
"That was the end of competition," Kimberly whispered as she looked up at the judges. They held up a sign read 9.6 and crowd started to clap.
Kimberly stared at her new pink cast as she walked out of the doctors office. "I've got six to eight weeks," Kimberly told Tommy as she got into the truck. " They are going to call me about the x-ray tomorrow."
"Until your wrist heals, I don't think you should morph," Tommy pointed out. "And I think Zordon will agree-"
"-we have already gotten that covered," Kimberly interrupted. "I talked with Kat and she agreed to fill I for me."
"It's weird," Tommy began as he pulled into the Dairy Queen parking lot. "She didn't steal your power coin this time. But, she was under Rita's spell-"
"-she broke the spell when she jumped in to help Billy," Kimberly continued. "His communicator was broken when he was in a fight with Rito. Two tengas were holding each arm. She push Rito down and stole his sword and stabbed both the tengas."
"Still that was a brave thing to do. She didn't have any powers and she stepped into help him," Tommy said. "She even told him afterwards about being under one of Rita's spells when they went back into the youth center."
Kimberly walked into the youth center with a pink cast on her wrist. In the middle of the room there was a table with a cake, punch, cookies, and fruit. A sign was above the table which read "CONGRATULATIONS KIMBERLY!"
"Surprise!" Everyone shouted as they came out of their hiding place.
"Ms. Hart!" Cried a woman in an Angel Grove jogging suit. "My name is Polly Flask. I am the gymnastics coach for the Angel Grove varsity gymnastics team. I would love to see you join. Your training will be starting next week. You and the rest of the girls will be going to compete at the state level in four months."
"I can't," Kimberly answered as she tried to fight back tears. "I broke my wrist and I can't do gymnastics for 6 to 8 weeks. It maybe longer because I have to take a little physical therapy. But, I can join after my wrist heals completely."
"You are a disgrace!" Hissed Coach Flask. " I have had girls with twisted ankles start training. You have worked for years up until this day and you just wasted your time. I am not going to waste time on you. You will ruin my teams chance of winning because you would be so far behind. I would rather have someone else."
Kimberly ran off to the lake to get away from the party. Hot tears were pouring down her faces. Her eyes were red and puffy and they were even starting to sting. She looked up at the sky and saw a crane was flying above her. It looked down at her and acted like it wanted her to follow it.
"Kimberly! Wait up!"
She turned around and saw that Tommy had followed her all the way to the shore line. She glanced back up the sky and the crane was gone.
"Tommy, what are you doing here?"
"You are a great gymnast and i think you should continue," Tommy started, as he took Kimberly's hands. "Just a little recovery time is all you need-"
"-Tommy, I can't," Kimberly interrupted."I met with my doctor right before the party. I broke my wrist in two places and it was really sever."
"I just hate that you can't do gymnastics anymore," Tommy stated as they walked along the shore line. "If this had to happen I am glad that it happened before you went to the Pan Global Games and spent all that time training and Coach Schmidt wouldn't let her compete. Or worse she got a more serious gymnastic injury than breaking her wrists in two places."
"This doesn't make me feel better," Kimberly sobbed as she wiped her face. "What made you thInk of those possibilities?"
"It's because I love you," he answered taking a deep breath. "I have loved you since the day I first met you."
"Really!?" Kimberly gasped with a smile and she gazed into his eyes. "I love you too."
Zordon contacts the rangers and they go to the command center. Since Kimberly's wrist is broken, Kat is going to fell in for her while her wrist recovers. Promises Kimberly that she will carry on as she would. She just wants her to recover from her gymnastics injury.
Author's note: hopefully updates will be more frequent. I am working on a sequel for this story. Then I will be doing a story taking place during a brush with destiny. All I know right now is Tommy will be going to Paris with Kim after her mom gets with the French painter. If you have any ideas for the story or something that you would like to see happen, message me.
