"Welcome to Angel Grove California!" The cheery sign read as the taxi passed by it. The person in the back laughed. 'If they only knew how many times that poor sign has been demolished.' She thought as the familiar landscape passed before her eyes. The cab driver took a look at the girl in the back from the rearview mirror and smiled. "So, you new around our fair town?" he asked in an over cheery voice. Kimberly Hart snapped out of her daze and looked up at him. She plastered on a very large fake smile, one she had been using for the past year and shook her head. "Nope, I grew up here, I'm here to." She trailed off and looked out the window. "What am I doing back here?" she asked herself. The man gave an understanding nod and looked back to the road. "Well Miss." "Hart, Kimberly Hart." She smiled. He gave her another grin and a nod as they entered the heart of Angel Grove. "Welcome back to Angel Grove. Anywhere in particular you want to be dropped off?" She thought about it. Where did she want to go? She suddenly had a craving she hadn't had in a year. "Angel Grove Youth Center please." She said feeling slightly better.
Aisha Campbell came running into the Youth Center, followed by a slightly tired Adam Park, and a very ragged looking Rocky De Santos finishing off the group. Aisha ran up to their regular table, the 'Ranger table' as it had sort of been dubbed years back when the others had first started. Tommy Oliver looked up from his perch on a weight machine in the corner and laughed. He grabbed his white towel and wiped his brow. "Keeping the guys in shape aren't ya 'Sha?" He said as he took his seat. Aisha laughed and sat down also. "You know it, these two would die without me." She grinned. Adam gave a silent nod and walked over to get some water while Rocky painfully sat down. "Never...again!" He said when he finally regained his voice. "Never, ever again will I agree with you to go jogging." He finished. Aisha simply shrugged and Tommy shook his head, a slight smile evident on his lips. "Hey, listen if you wanted us to slow down you could've asked." Aisha said running her hands through her long braids. Rocky looked up at her and glared, still trying to regain his breathing pattern. "I did! I yelled it at the top of my lungs, Rita Replusa probably heard me!" he took another gulp of air and put his head down on the cool surface of the table. Adam's laugh was heard as he walked back to the table. "Yeah, see that's why you couldn't get your breathing right, you were hollering at the top of your lungs." Rocky looked at Adam as he took a seat on Aisha's other side. Aisha laughed quietly. "You're supposed to be on my side." He mumbled. Tommy just shook his head and rolled his eyes. "What did I miss?" A thick Australian accent floated into the conversation. Tommy looked up into the blue eyes of his current girlfriend, Katherine Hilliard and shrugged. "Rocky is again complaining about the training Aisha is making him and Adam be apart of." "That is not training! Tommy, have you been out with this woman? She's a beast!" Rocky was rewarded with a swift kick in the shin for that one. "Ow sorry! But it's true! Three laps around the Angel Grove Lake isn't training its torture." "Says the boy who eats a truck load of food before running, I told you not to eat as much in the morning, and you'll be fine!" Aisha retorted evenly. Rocky looked up at Adam and Tommy for help, and they simply shrugged. "She's right you know, consuming a large amount of food before taking part in any activity can severely slow down the rate at which one's body works at." Billy Cranston reported as he joined his friends at their table. Rocky shot a confused look at Adam, who in return rolled his eyes. "It means if you load up on food than you can't run as fast, slowing you down, making it harder to run and therefore keep up." Rocky rolled his eyes at Adam's explanation and looked at Aisha. "Again I say, 'huh?'" Aisha cleared her throat and shook her head a bit at how dense he could be sometimes. "In simple terms Rocko, you eat a lot, you don't run as fast!" "Why couldn't you just have said that!" Rocky said looking over at Billy, who gave him an innocent look "I did Rocky." He said simply then looked over at Tommy, who gave his silent answer to Billy's question. Rocky shook his head. "In much.um how do you say it? User-friendly terms." "Forgive him, he's just slow today." Aisha and Kat giggled and Rocky shook his head. "I'm just hungry."
"When aren't you?" Kat asked as she looked at him. He pouted and looked at all his friends. "What is this? Was today picked to be national 'Pick On Rocky' day?" "Nah man, that's every day for us." Adam laughed and high fived Tommy. Aisha put a comforting arm around the now pouting red ranger. "Aw, cheer up, I'll get you something to eat."
"Anything?" he looked up at her and smiled. She thought about it for a while then nodded. "Sure anything." "And there goes all your money." Kat kidded. The whole table broke out into laughter.
Meanwhile:
Kim's eyes scanned the Youth Center as the cab pulled up to it. "Well here with are Miss. Hart, the Angel Grove Youth Center." The man's voice broke into her thoughts and memories. She smiled at him and paid him. "Thank you for everything." He gave a nod and got out to help her with her stuff. Once she was all unloaded she grabbed her stuff and took a deep breath. "Well you flew this far, might as well get it over with." She said to herself. She walked to the entrance and pulled the doors open. She was met by laughter and chattering voices. The place still looked the same, after a year. She smiled to herself and stashed her stuff at a table near the doors. She looked to see where all the loud laughter was coming from and her eyes were drawn to a table near the juice bar. There sat six friends, laughing and looking completely happy. She knew their faces well; she knew each of them very well. She decided not to go over just yet, she couldn't. So she made a beeline for the juice bar, pulling her bucket hat a bit lower and placing her order to Ernie, a long time friend. He probably didn't recognize her, and she was glad for that.
"It's ok guys, I'll get it." Kat smiled and stood up then walked over to the counter to order. Ernie slung the towel he was using to wipe down the counter top and smiled at the young blonde. "What can I do for you Ms. Kat?" she smiled and placed her and the others order. "Coming right up, let me guess, food for Rocky?" Kat giggled as she replied. "When is the food not for Rocky?" Ernie joined in her laughter as he got the order ready. After getting the shakes ready, he passed one to the girl in the corner. Kat studied the girl a bit, she seemed new, wanting to be nice she was going to say hi but Ernie got her attention again. "Kat, here's your order." She smiled and paid him then walked over with the order. "Here you go, double cheese burger, with fries, a salad, a pickle and a banana berry shake for Rocky." She passed him his order. "Aisha, this scary wheat grass root shake you like." Kat made a face as she passed it to the lovely dark skinned woman. "Hey, it keeps me in shape, I ain't complainin." She said as she sipped a bit of it. Kat shook her head again and kept up with the orders. "More water for Adam, Billy here's your iced tea." She looked over at Tommy, who seemed to be quiet. "Tommy, are you ok?" she asked as she took her strawberry kiwi shake in her hands and sat down. He snapped out of his trance-like state and smiled at her. "Of course, just a bit on the spaced side, sorry." He gave her a half-smile that seemed to satisfy her. She took a sip of her drink and made a face. "Wait a minute! This isn't what I ordered!" She said looking down at her drink. "What's wrong with it Kat?" Billy piped up. She looked up at him. "It's not my strawberry kiwi shake at all, in fact it doesn't even taste like it." Adam gave her a look. "Well it's really not like Ernie to mix up drinks, but he must of mistaken your drink for someone else's." he said with obvious answer. Aisha laughed a bit and put her hand on Adam's shoulder. "Thank you for stating the obvious." He smiled sheepishly and she smiled back. Tommy looked at Kat. "What kind is it? Give it to Rocky, you know he'll take anything." Kat laughed and Rocky shot a glare Tommy's way as he looked up from being the human vacuum. "It actually tastes ok, sort of like Peach, and raspberry." "Peach berry you mean?" Tommy said looking at her, his dark eyes a bit wide. She nodded, her eyebrow arched. "Yeah, I guess you'd call it that, why?" he shook his head and turned his attention to the napkin in his hand. "No reason." Kat looked over at the others, and they all seemed to shrug. Billy was the only one with a serious look on his face. "Billy." Kat hissed quietly, though he was sitting right next to her. He looked at her as if to ask what. "What's wrong?" she asked. He came closer and whispered in her ear. "That's what Kim usually ordered here." Her eyes got a bit wide and she looked up at Tommy, who was looking at the napkin in his hands, which seemed to be very amusing in the passing moments. She looked up to see that the girl who was at the corner at the juice bar had disappeared. "Here Rocky." She put the drink in front of him and he smiled then kept eating. "That's just too weird." She said to herself as she got up and went back to the juice bar, to ask Ernie about it. "Yeah sorry about that Kat, here's another on the house, I must've gotten it mixed up with the other girl's who just walked out." "Yeah I was going to ask if you knew who that was." She said looking out the door, where she might have headed. Ernie shook his head and flicked away an invisible speck on the already gleaming counter. "Nope, she didn't say much, just ordered and took it then left." Kat gave a nod and was about to turn when Ernie said something else. "It's weird though cuz not may people order that combination, only a select few, like." "Kim?" Kat said softly. Ernie smiled and gave a nod while leaning on the counter a bit. "Yeah like Kim for instance, you could always tell when her order, Peach berry shake and a salad, if she wanted something to eat." Kat gave another nod and turned to walk off. "Thanks Ernie." She said distractedly as she walked back to the table. "Hey guys you know Ernie just." her voice was cut off by the now familiar six-tone jingle the rangers had come to know so well. Tommy gave a glance around then got up and motioned for the others to follow. The five others quietly followed their leader to a quiet, secluded corner in the center. "Go ahead Zordon." Tommy said quickly into his communicator. "RANGERS, THERE'S BEEN A DISTRUBANCE IN THE PARK, GO THERE IMMIDIATELY." Their mentor's booming voice came over the transmission. Tommy gave a quick nod of his head. "We're on it." He replied. "QUICKLY RANGERS, AND MAY THE POWER PROTECT YOU." Came his haste reply. Tommy looked back up at the others. "Ready?" "Lets go kick some butt." Aisha smiled up at him. He gave her a tight smile, and then looked around at the others, and with that they all teleported to the park.
Kim set her stuff down on the floor and looked around. "Home sweet home?" she questioned as she looked around the tiny, yet furnished apartment. She walked in and closed the door. After moving toward the bedroom and putting her stuff down she picked up her guitar case and hugged it. "I guess this will just have to do." She sighed as she grabbed her keys and her light pink book bag and opened the door. She took a deep sigh and closed the door behind her. So many memories had come flooding back into her memory when she had walked into the Youth Center. She could picture herself sitting there with the others, joining in their laughter as they joked around with one another, or jogging with Aisha and hearing Rocky gripe and moan about how tired he was. She laughed at the jokes she had been around for as they made fun of Rocky's eating habits. Or having Tommy's arm draped causally around her shoulders as she leaned against him, giggling at their fellow friend's antics toward one another. "What memories." She sighed. Before she knew it, she had made her way out of the apartment building, down the street and walking towards Angel Grove Park. "Now this place has memories." She laughed lightly as she entered the park. She made her way past the people sitting there, picnicking and laughing. She wished she could do that with her friends. Kim made her way to her and Tommy's favorite spot in the park. It was under a huge tree that seemed to be bending down, hiding whatever happened to be sitting under it. She sat down and opened her guitar case, taking out her instrument and letting her fingers touch the cool, smooth surface of it. She picked it up and began strumming a few chords, nothing very elaborate, just some chords that were floating around in her head.
"Don't these losers ever get tired of attacking and getting killed?" Aisha said to relatively no one as she kicked yet another putty, and got rid of it. Billy flipped by her and laughed. "No, I seriously doubt that they do." He replied as he punched one, sending it flying toward a tree, and speeding to its end. Rocky and Adam double teamed to get rid of a small group of them, while Kat and Tommy finished off the last remaining few. They regrouped and stood behind a few bushes. Tommy looked around and gave a nod then called out. "Power down!" Soon his, along with the other rangers' suits shimmered then became iridescent. Aisha moved her head a bit then looked around. "So back to the Youth Center?" she asked. All but Tommy gave a nod. Kat looked at him with question in her eyes. "Nah, it's cool, I think I'm just going to stick around here for a while, ya know, take a walk or something." "You want any company?" Kat said from his side. He looked at her and flashed her a smile. "It's ok, I think I'll just be by myself for a while." He reassured her. She nodded then stood on her tiptoes and placed a kiss on his cheek. "See you later!" She called out over her shoulder as she ran to catch up with the others. "Man I'm hungry again, I'm as hungry as a horse." Rocky's now faded voice said. Tommy heard Aisha snicker and retort. "Knowing you, you could probably eat the horse." Tommy smiled and shook his head.
