"Kim? Kimberly!" Tommy yelled as he jerked awake and looked at his surroundings. He remembered going to sleep at his parent's home, but this was not his parents' home. This was not like any home he had ever seen before and he panic set in. Part of him hoped this was a bad dream, but his gut said that he was in a completely different world without his wife.

"Thomas? What are you doing here?" Mitchell asked as Tommy sat up and stared at the man that looked vaguely familiar, but he wasn't sure from where. And why was he calling him Thomas? No one called him Thomas. "And why are you yelling for Kimberly- she died years ago."

"Then where is my wife?" Tommy asked as he got out of bed and stormed past the man. He knew that Kimberly was alive and well, no matter what this man thought. He had fallen asleep with her in his arms last night. "Where is my wife?"

"Katy is at your home, obviously," Mitchell said as Tommy stopped in his tracks and locked eyes with the man. He moved closer to him and then glanced at the pictures in the hallway. He glanced at some bills and let out a groan. Trueheart. This must be Thomas's father and that meant that they were in his world, but separated. He had to get back to his wife, he was no good to this world if he didn't have her by his side.

"I think I need to see your son," Tommy stated as Mitchell grabbed a weapon and Tommy gave him a bored glare. The older man moved to be on the attack and he easily blocked shot after shot. He did not want to hurt him, but he was also quickly losing his patience with the man.

"Mitchell? What's going on?" a woman called and Tommy glanced back at her for a moment and got clobbered with the staff. He then looked back at the man, grabbed it, and tossed it away. He was done playing games and he needed them to take him to Thomas. Now.

"Sally, honey, call the authorities. Thomas has finally lost it," Mitchell said as Tommy glanced between the both of them and then nodded.

"It's Morphin' Time!" Tommy yelled as his morpher popped into his hands. "Tigerzord!"

Mitchell and Sally froze as they watched the man morph and he then took off his helmet. He calmly walked over to Sally, took the phone from her, and placed it back on the table.

"As I was saying- I need to talk to Thomas," Tommy said as Mitchell barely nodded as he stared at him. His son had never had those powers, but this man looked so much like him. Who was he? "And it's Tommy Oliver by the way. I'm here to keep Kiros from killing JJ."


Kimberly slowly rolled over and felt how hard the bed was. She knew this wasn't her bed, but she didn't remember the Olivers' guest bed hurting this bad before. She slowly and quickly woke up as she felt the ground under her and realized she was outside. She glanced around and her eyes widened in horror. She was in a cemetery. How did she get to a cemetery?

She pushed herself to her feet and started, carefully, picking her way through the headstones. She glanced down at her wrist and noticed that her communicator had disappeared. Well that was just great. How was she supposed to get out of here? Where was here?

"Hi! Excuse me- where am I?" Kim asked as the first person that walked past her and she stared as they continued past. "Excuse me! I don't know where I am- can I get some help?"

"They won't hear you," a voice said next to her and she spun around to see her younger self staring back at her. "You're still alive."

"Yeah- so why wouldn't they hear me?" Kim asked as the ghostly figure moved closer to her and she gulped.

"Huh- I never realized you would come with him. This complicates things a bit," Kimberly said as she reached out and smoothed down Kim's hair. "I wonder…I can't leave this place, but maybe you can."

"Maybe I can what?" Kim shrieked as she tried to touch someone and her hand went through them. "Why am I a ghost?"

"I'm dead in this universe? This is far beyond my pay grade," Kimberly stated as Kim tried to take in several deep breaths and she felt a cramp run down her side. "I do think that you can get to Thomas and he…well…it's probably your best chance at reuniting with your Thomas."

"Tommy," Kim corrected as she just nodded. "How do I get there?"

"I hope you're good at memorizing directions," Kimberly said as she saw Kim pale and she offered her a comforting smile. "It's not that far, you'll be fine."


"Get the fuck off my property," Thomas roared as he opened the door to see Mitchell standing across from him. The last time he had seen his 'father' had been when he spat in his face at Kimberly's funeral. He had sworn he would never allow him on his property or near his family ever again and he had managed that for nearly twenty years.

"I told you he wasn't Thomas," Sally stated as Thomas looked over at his mom and then past them at a man he had hoped to never see again.

"Tommy?" Thomas croaked as he shook his head. "Why are you here?"

"I promise I'll tell you, but I need to know something first. Is Kim here?" Tommy asked and Thomas immediately felt more awake. He glanced back at Katy and she froze as she saw Tommy. "Katherine?"

"Yes. Who? How?" Katy asked as she walked up to him and placed a hand on both of his shoulders. While he looked exactly like Thomas, she could feel that he held slightly more muscle and was probably younger than Thomas by several years.

"I will explain, my wife isn't here?" Tommy asked as he felt the panic rising in him and he tried to press down the panic attack, but failed. He moved away from her and sank to the steps. He felt his entire world spin and desperately tried to focus on just breathing normally. It had been over two years since he had last had a panic attack and he could have gone forever without having one again. He felt a hand settle on his back and he looked over to see that Thomas had wrapped his arm around him and was just sitting with him.

"I always travel by myself, it was unsettling the first time for me too," Thomas stated as Tommy just shook his head. "She's supposed to be here?"

"Yeah. She helped me defeat Kiros in my world. I doubt that I've gotten that much stronger in a couple years," Tommy said as Thomas froze and glanced up at his parents. Kiros could not be coming back here. Kimberly hadn't seen that happen. "She's also nearly eight months pregnant and I…I need to know…"

"Mom?" JJ asked as he stood in the doorway and Katy looked back at him and nodded. "Not you, Katy. Mom."

Thomas and Tommy looked up at where he was pointing. Thomas shook his head as he saw nothing and Tommy felt the relief flood his body as he stood up and sprinted for Kimberly. He pulled her to him and suddenly she appeared in his arms and the other adults gasped. When he moved back from her, she shimmered for a moment and then seemed to firmly land in this world.

"Oh thank god," Tommy whispered as he leaned down and kissed her before he settled his head against her forehead. "Where did you wake up?"

"The cemetery," Kim replied and he stared at her. Why in the world would she land there? "I met your Kimberly. We hoped that maybe I would be here, here if I got to you. Also- do not recommend universe jumping at this pregnant."

"He's not lying?" Mitchell asked as Tommy and Kimberly jerked around to look at him. "I only brought you here because you morphed, not because I thought you were telling the truth."

"His parents?" Kim whispered and Tommy barely nodded. "I like yours better."

"Me too," Tommy whispered as they turned their attention back to the Trueheart family.

"Me three," Thomas said as he glared at his parents and Tommy watched him closely. While he had never met his birth parents, he could tell that Thomas would have rather never met his parents. Thomas looked back at JJ and then over at his parents. He was fairly sure of how this was going to go and he didn't want his son to see it. "JJ- why don't you show Kim to the guest room suite? I'm pretty sure she could use a bit of rest and to warm up some."

"Sure," JJ said as Kim glared at Thomas, but turned to follow his son. Thomas let out a long sigh as he locked eyes with Tommy and Tommy barely nodded.

"Fuck," Thomas muttered under his breath as he ran his hands through his jaw length hair and just shook his head. This could not be happening. Kiros could not be coming after the one thing that he had left of Kimberly. "He's my son. He's the only child I have with…"

"I know. Kim saw that Kiros was going to come after JJ- we've been trying to warn you for over a year, but our Guardians were only able to talk to yours in the last two months. Based on the timeline- they thought it was better to not worry you and to just have us show up," Tommy explained as Thomas glared at his father and Tommy gave him a confused look. "I'm here to stop him, to keep him from doing that."

"Did they tell you?" Thomas ground out as Mitchell met him head on and he shook his head as he saw the lack of surprise on his father's face. He knew- someone had told him. "You knew? And you didn't think you should tell me?"

"Thomas- not now. They're here and will eliminate the problem," Mitchell stated and Thomas just shook his head.

"We're doing this now. Do you even want JJ to survive? He's just one more reminder that I wasn't the 'perfect little ranger' that you were. That I actually saw that loving someone was more important than a fucking ranger legacy," Thomas spat out as he stepped closer to his father and Katy and Sally moved to try to keep them apart. They knew it was useless to even try to stop Thomas if he truly wanted to attack Mitchell and were glad when Tommy also stepped forward. "You need to leave."

"You would have been better off marrying a stronger woman the first time," Mitchell stated and Tommy jumped in and pulled Thomas away. "Let him go."

"Do you want him to kill you?" Tommy asked as he pulled Thomas further away and Mitchell chuckled.

"You won't defeat Kiros, you're the same," Mitchell stated and Tommy let Thomas go and was not surprised when he punched Mitchell so hard that it knocked him off his feet.

"Thomas!" Sally yelled as she kneeled next to Mitchell as he stared up at Thomas. "How dare you!"

"Don't even try to justify it Mom. Now leave- this is the last time I'm asking," Thomas said as he shook out his hand and looked over at Tommy. "I'll take the both of you into our academy later today. And Mitchell- if there's anything else you're hiding- I suggest you drop those materials off at the Academy. I am done with finding out that you've kept information from the Academy or are sneaking things through your network after all of these years. If you know anything else about what is coming after JJ and you don't tell us- it's you I'm going after first if anything happens to him."
