Warning: Alright, this is getting old, I don't own them…yes I know…lol

A/N: thank you for the reviews! You know I love them!

          "So guys… what are you doing here?" Tommy asked the three as he looked straight at them, not acknowledging the fact that Kim was seated right beside him. "Anyone hungry?" He asked.

"No." All three replied. Aisha turned to Rocky and raised an eyebrow then shook her head, and looked back at him. "Did you just say you weren't hungry?"

"Yeah well…I am, but I think Tommy has some explaining to do." Rocky defended himself. Aisha nodded and looked back to Tommy.  "So Leader of ours, are you going to tell us why are good friend Kim is here or are we going to have to stand here all night and stare at one another?"

"Sha, don't blame Tommy, I didn't tell anyone I was back. He just happened to…" Kim paused looking for the words. "Find me."

"Were you lost?" Adam asked worriedly. Kim let out a little giggle, which seem to ease the tension in the room. "No Adam, I just wasn't ready to face everyone yet." She replied.  Aisha's lips formed into a smile and she ran up to Kim, enveloping her in a hug. "God it's great to see you!" she said as she hugged the petite ex pink ranger.

"It's great to see you too Sha." She replied and hugged her back. She got up off the bed and looked at Adam and Rocky. "And you two, hug much?" they all laughed and trapped her into a double hug. "Rocky, Adam, breath! I can't breathe!" Kim said in a choked voice.

"Sorry Kimmy." Rocky smirked and pulled away. Kim threw a glare at him and punched his arm. "Ow! I didn't mean it!" He said rubbing his arm. That got a laugh from everyone.

"Where's Billy you guys? I mean, I'm happy to be seeing all of you but ya know…" Kim smiled as she thought of her long-time friend Billy.

"He said he was going to the command center to get something from Zordon, then said he meet us here."

"Gee thanks for telling me you all were pow wowing at my house." Tommy said dryly. Aisha turned to him and rolled her eyes. "Oh come on, like you mind!"

"Yeah, yeah." He said annoyed, but a real smile evident on his lips. Kim looked around at her friends and sighed. "Guys, where's Kat? I mean, she usually is with you guys." Everyone suddenly got quiet and she looked over at Tommy, who had taken a sudden interest in his bedspread.

"Well? Is anyone going to say anything?" she prompted. Tommy looked up at her then over at the others, who had taken places in different parts of the room to sit.

"Her and I sort of got into a fight." Tommy mumbled and looked over at Rocky, as if silently pleaded for him to say something to lighten the mood. He actually got the hint.

"Hey how about that food? I'm sudden regaining my appetite."  He heard Aisha laugh and Adam grumbled and passed her a five-dollar bill. He glared at his best friends. "What was that all about?"

"Oh the money? I bet Adam five bucks that you would regain your appetite in about…fifteen minutes, Adam said thirty. It's been fifteen, I won." Aisha smiled and pocketed the money.

"Well I don't appreciate being the center of your bet, but at least Adam held out for me longer than you did!" He looked over at Aisha and that sent the five teens into laughter again.

"Well then, onto the kitchen!"  Tommy got out and made his way to the door, but Kim pulled his arm. "Oh no you don't mister, you're going to tell me what's wrong with you and Kat." She looked into his eyes.

"Later, after we get food." He replied and walked down the stairs. She looked over at Aisha who as standing next to her. "So he hasn't changed his stubborn ways since I've been gone."

"Never, in fact I think it's gotten worse." Aisha laughed and linked arms with Kim as they walked down the stairs. "I tell you, I've created a monster." Kim joked as they walked into the kitchen.

          "…And that's why I'm here." Kim completed her story and looked around at the faces of Adam, Rocky, and Aisha, waiting for either one of the three to break the silence.

"Well we're really glad you're back Kim! It's so great I mean, we'll get to hang just like old times, at the youth center, the mall…" Aisha was interrupted by a grumble coming from Tommy's direction.

"You don't have to come Tommy." Kim smiled from across the table. Rocky and Adam laughed. "Dude, it's not so bad." Rocky said with a smile.

"Yeah, have you been shopping with Kim? And with Aisha as her partner in crime, it's worse!" Tommy used as his defense. Kim and Aisha stuck their tongues out at the white ranger and laughed.

"Hello? Anyone home?" there was a knock on the already slightly ajar door. Kim giggled and Adam shook his head. "Just like Billy to always be polite, even when the door is open."

"Adam I heard…Kim?" Billy cut himself off mid-sentence as he walked into the kitchen and saw her standing there.  Kim smiled and wrapped her arms around Billy, who returned her embrace.

"It's so good to see you!" she said when she pulled away from their hug. Billy gave a nod then a look to the others. "And you didn't bother to contact me that she was here?" he said in a somewhat hurt voice.

"Hey Man, don't blame us, we just found out that she was here about twenty minutes ago." Rocky said holding his hands up. Billy gave a slight shrug then looked over at Tommy. "Did you know?"

"I found her, I didn't know." He said quickly. Billy nodded his head then smiled back at Kim. "So what have you been up to? I haven't kept in contact, I've been very lax on my correspondence and…"

"No need to explain Billy, I know it gets pretty busy between trying to juggle school, bad guys, and helping out at the command center." Kim said sympathetically. He took a seat at the table with the others and nodded in agreement.

"It's taken a huge toll on me, but I wouldn't have it any other way, this is pretty much the life I've known for a long time."

"I hear ya." Rocky added. Adam and Aisha gave their solemn nods, and Tommy gave a grunt in agreement. Kim shrugged and slipped into a seat next to Tommy. He flashed her a little smile and returned it.

"I know, I miss it, after a while, eating, sleeping, and doing gymnastics can really get to a person." She laughed. Billy looked at her and smiled again.

"How is that going for you? I mean, I know you must be doing very well, you've always been so very skilled in that area."

"Oh it's great, it's just been lonely you know?" She looked around at all of them. "I mean, I have friends down there, but I missed you all so much." Her gaze ended on Tommy then she averted her eyes down to the table.

"I get ya, if I were to leave I think I would have a hard time adjusting." Adam said with a smile. Kim nodded and smiled, then felt a warm, strong hand covering hers. She looked down on her lap to see Tommy's hand over hers, his gaze on the others.

"Yeah but I'm here now so I don't have to think about being alone right now." She replied, her cheeks taking on a blushing sort of color. The others gave their agreement and filled Kim in on what had been going on since she left.

"What about Bulk and Skull?" Kim asked after a while of their talking. She could feel the group all groan and that made her smile yet again.  "You know Bulk and Skull, always trying to find out who the Power Rangers are." Aisha laughed.

"Yeah I mean, you'd think they'd give up after not knowing for so long." Rocky shook his head and smiled. "Well they're both very headstrong, so I don't expect them to quit just yet." Billy added.

"Yeah you're right, no matter how crazy, Bulk and Skull never give up… They remind me of the monsters we fight." Tommy grinned.

"Except these two are totally harmless."  Adam threw out. Rocky and Aisha laughed in agreement.  "Yeah the fly would probably scare them!" Rocky laughed.

"Hey that reminds me of this one monster we fought, Kim we so have to tell you about it, it was so awesome…" Adam began as he began telling his story.

          "…And then like Aisha tripped, which sent me and Rocky flying, and Rocko flew into Billy, who pushed Kat, who went careening into Tommy." Adam finished. Kim was in tears from laughing so hard after Adam finished his story.

"No more, I don't think I could take it." Kim laughed and took a breath. All the others' laughter died down a bit. "It was quite a memory to recall, that was one fight where I'm sure we were all glad that we wear helmets."

"Yeah, talk about mortification city if people could've seen the Klutzy rangers instead of the Power Rangers." Kim said, which sent the group into another fit of laughter.

"Seems I'm missing a party!" Someone's voice cut into the laughter. All six of the teens looked towards the entrance of the kitchen. Kat's smile, which was bright, was rapidly fading when she saw who was seated next to her boyfriend.

"Kimberly." She finally managed to get out. Kim flashed her a smile and she felt like cringing at how happy the former pink ranger could be.

"Hey Kat." She replied, her chipper and happy voice trying to cut through the tension that had sudden come into the room.

"Tommy, I need to talk to you." Kat said coldly, not even acknowledging that Kim had answered her. Tommy let go of Kim's hand and stood up. "Alright, lets talk." He replied, sounding as cold as she did.

"And then there were five." Aisha said as Tommy and Kat walked out.  Kim looked over at her, sending her a silent thanks for lightening the mood.

**So, what do you think?  It's short I know, but I have to get packing for a trip! I was determined to get this up tonight though! Review! **
