have with my best friend!! You don't need this stress, Kim..."

"But, Tommy's not like that!" said Kim. "And I know who he spends time with, and none of my friends would turn on me like that."

"Kim, I know this Tommy guy is special, but Trevor Monroe is really a find! He's handsome, intelligent, athletic, funny, and charming."

"And I'm not interested!" said Kim defiantly. "End of discussion!"

Renee sighed and changed the subject to their plans for the long weekend. After a short walk, the girls were inside their small apartment. Kimberly immediately began packing her suitcase for her upcoming trip, while Renee went to her dresser to find her clothes.

"I've got dibbs on the shower!" she called, locking herself in the bathroom. Kim smiled and continued packing. She didn't even notice a flash of pink light on her bed. She did, however, recognize a familar six tone signal coming from her bed. She jumped in surprise, and was amazed to see her old pink communicator on her bed. She picked it up and held it to her mouth, listening first if Renee had turned on the shower.

"Hello?" she asked. "Who's there?"

^Kim? It's good to hear your voice! How are you?^



"I'm fine, Billy. What's wrong? If this was a social call, you would have used the telephone!"

^Well, the rangers have run into a pretty major problem, and I think we're gonna be needing your help. Is there any way you'd be able to come to Angel Grove for a couple of days? Its really an emergency!^



"You're in luck, Billy. Coach Schmidt just gave the whole team a few days off for Thanksgiving. I was planning on flying in tomorrow."

^We really need you immediately, Kim. Can I teleport you?^



"Give me five minutes," said Kim, searching for a piece of paper, "I need to come up with an excuse for disappearing. My roommate will flip if I just vanish."

^Okay, Kim, I'll see you in a few minutes. Billy out.^



Kimberly attached the communicator to her wrist and quickly wrote a letter to her roommate, telling her that her mother had surprised her with a drop in visit, and that she would be staying with her mother in the hotel until they both fly to Angel Grove. It was a lame story, but Kim didn't have enough time to come up with a good cover story. Kim strapped on her bag and waited for the familiar rush that accompanies teleportation.

Part Five



Chapter Six


The Power Rangers returned to the Central Access Complex to inform Billy of their predicament. They find him sitting at the desk waiting.

"Looks like you've made yourself comfortable," smirked Zack.

"Well, this desk is connected to all the CAC's major computer systems. I can control just about everything from this position."

"We have a problem," said Jason. "We've found all the Zeo shards, but no one can touch the yellow one. We don't have a Yellow Ranger!"

"I know, I saw the entire scenario from the Viewing Globe. I suspected this may happen -- Tanya was never made a Power Ranger by Zordon, hence she has never wielded the power of a Power Coin. The coins somehow change their owners on a biochemical level, so that they are more durable than other humans. Tanya isn't capable of harnessing the vast amount of power in a Zeo shard."

"So, what do we do?" asked Katherine. "Do you think you can use it, Billy?"

"I don't know, but for some reason, I don't think it's my destiny. I think my place is right here, at this desk."

"But, we need a Yellow Ranger," said Adam, "Zedd and Rita will no doubt be attacking soon, trying to take advantage of us not being at full strength. We need all six Zeo shards to be placed in the altars before we can claim the power, and no one can touch the yellow one."

"We have one more option," said Billy, activating the teleporter, "I guess you could call it a hunch."

A beam of pink light struck before the surprised rangers, and the form of the original Pink Ranger appeared.

"Kim!" said Tommy, immediately greeting her with a warm hug. "What're you doing here?"

"Well, Billy called and told me there was an emergency. Coach Schmidt had given the whole team five days off for Thanksgiving, and I thought I'd surprise you."

"Trust me, we're definitely surprised," said Kat with a weak smile.

"So, what's happening? Where are we? This isn't the Command Center!"

Tommy related everything that had happened: the Zeo Crystal quest, the implosion of the Command Center, Rocky's injury, the disk, the finding of the CAC, and Tanya's inability to touch the yellow gem. Then, Billy played Zordon's message again for her.

"Wow, I can't believe all this happened since I left! It's only been a couple months!"

"Its been a most eventful few months indeed," said Billy. "Are you ready to try and obtain the Zeo shard, Kim?"

"As I'll ever be," she said, standing with the others. Billy was about to teleport the entire group, but Tanya stepped away.

"There's no sense in me tagging along," she said with a weak smile. "Good luck, guys. Maybe I can help Billy out down here."

The rangers nodded and vanished in streaks of colored light. They reappeared almost instantly in the center of the circle of stone pillars. The group led Kimberly to the location of the yellow Zeo shard, which remained untouched.

"There it is, Kim," said Tommy. "Now remember, if you feel any pain whatsoever when you touch the gem, just let it go."

"Relax Tommy. I think I'm capable of following instructions."

Kimberly knelt down on the rock and gently touched the shard with her delicate index finger. The shard began to glow brilliantly, and if floated off the ground and into Kim's palm.

"Yes!" cried Zack, throwing his hands in the air. "Way to go, Kim!"

Kim smiled triumphantly at her friends and slowly walked to the empty stone pillar. She placed the gem in the hole and stood back.

"So, now what do we do?" asked Katherine.

"We wait," said Jason.

Chapter Seven


Meanwhile, on the surface of the Moon, Lord Zedd and his wife Rita Repulsa watched the Power Rangers.

"No!" cried Lord Zedd in anger. "Those brats have discovered a new power source already?! I knew I should have destroyed them as soon as they returned to what's left of the Command Center! Why do I ever listen to you, Rita?"

"Because I'm the smart one, Zeddie!" she answered in her usual high pitched shriek, "I told Goldar and Rito to steal the Zeo Crystal before they destroyed the Command Center, but those idiots managed to mess up anyway!"

"It wasn't our fault," said Rito.

"Yeah," said Goldar. "The crystal started to emit a strange energy that interfered with our teleportation. We had to leave it on Earth."

"It doesn't matter," said Rita. "Now that the rangers have collected the fragments, we can destroy them and unify the crystals ourselves!"

"Brilliant!" bellowed Zedd, "I'll have the unlimited power of the Zeo Crystal, and no one will be left to stop me! Send down the Tengas!"

Before the order could be carried out, Finster rushed into the throne room. "Your Majesties, I have just finished a project that may be more beneficial than the Tenga Warriors."

"What are you talking about?" asked Zedd. "The Tengas are the fiercest warriors on this side of the galaxy!"

"True, but the rangers defeat them anyway. I have created a whole new breed of Putty. I blended the typical clay with some DNA from various Earth creatures called reptiles --"

"Get to the point already!" shrieked Rita.

"Yes my Queen," said Finster, beckoning to a group of creatures hiding in the shadows. They stepped out for all to see. "May I present -- The Viper Putties!"

Ten Putty Patrollers stepped forward and bowed to Rita and Zedd. They were by far less clumsy than the other Putties. They were green, with black boots and gloves, and a black "v"

on their chests. Their eyes glowed scarlet, and their mouths were open in an "O"

shape.

"They are agile, like reptiles, and can regenerate broken limbs. Also, they spit venom, which is a powerful corosive. The venom can eat through solid steel."

Rita and Zedd looked at each other for a minute, and they both began to cackle. Finster crossed his arms over his chest proudly, and Rito and Goldar were visibly relieved,
