Kimberly walked into the infirmary on the Mega Ship; she couldn't sleep so shefigured she'd come here
She walked over to Andros who would be dead right now had she not thought tocontact Billy on Aquitar know Billy was going to move back to Earth
Kim knelt down next to Andros she took his hand in hers and held it to theside of her face she closed her eyes
"Andros what would I have done if you died?" she asked to no one she looked upat the life support machine the beeping was steady, it had been two weekssince Andros was hurt trying to rescue her
Kim let go of Andros's hand and stood up she leaned over him and kissed hisforehead
She walked down the hall to Andros's quarters, she pressed a few buttons andthe door opened she walked into the room closing the door behind her
She scanned the room her eyes fell on the table beside his bed; she walkedover to it on the table were a few pictures in frames.
One was of Andros as a young child; next to it was of a young girl that sheassumed was his sister Karone, another picture showed a blond haired boy whoshe thought looked like Brad Pitt.
The last picture was of Andros and the four other rangers; everyone wassitting but Andros
Kim picked up the picture and tapped her pink acrylic nails on the glass; shewalked over to his bed still holding the picture
She ran her hand over the smooth red sheets, which hadn't been slept on inabout two weeks
Kim lay down on the bed; she clutched the picture to her chest tears came toher eyes
"What if he never wakes up?" she thought to herself as she began to cry, shecried herself to sleep that night in Andros's room
------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Guys have you seen Kim this morning?" Billy asked when he'd found the otherrangers eating "She's supposed to come with me this morning to see myparents."
"I haven't seen her since yesterday after she came back with you fromAquitar." Cassie replied
"Morning." They all turned to see Kim walk in; she was in civilian clothing"Billy we'll leave in a few minutes ok." As Kim looked at her friend sherealized he looked younger then when she'd last seen him
"Ok." Billy said. After Kim ate, her and Billy teleported to Earth rightoutside Billy's house
"This is it." Kim said as she and Billy stood in front of the front door "It'snow or never."
"You're right here goes." Billy pressed the doorbell; they waited a fewminutes till Billy's mother came to the door
"Mom!" Billy exclaimed wrapping his arms around her neck in a hug
"Billy you're back." His mother said after he'd let go of her
Billy's mom grabbed Kim's wrists "And Kimberly oh we heard that you came infourth at the Pan Globals we're so sorry."
"That's ok I was getting tired of Florida anyway. I missed my friends" Kimreplied
Billy and Kim followed his mother in to where Billy's father was in thekitchen
"Billy you're home." He said when he saw Billy
"Hi dad." Billy said, "I'm happy to be home."
"When did you get back from your vacation?" his father asked, before Billyleft officially for Aquitar he told his parents he had been the blue powerranger and he was going to Aquitar to do some research for the rangers
"I got back yesterday." Billy replied "I actually didn't plan on coming back."
"Yeah we had an emergency and we needed Billy's help." Kim cut in
"We?" His mother asked "The power rangers."
"Well yeah." Kim replied
"So after I helped Kim and the others I decided to come back to Earth." Billysaid, "Now if you would excuse me I'd really like to see some familiarscenery_ You didn't change my room did you?"
"No it's just the way you left it." His mother said
"Good." Billy and Kimberly went up to his room where Billy threw himself downon his bed "Oh it's so good to be back home."
Kim smiled "Yeah I know what you mean." Kim looked around the room "It stilllooks the way it did before I left."
"Yeah well I didn't do much changing." Billy replied as he opened his closet"Could you hand me that bag?"
"Sure." Kim picked up the blue duffel bag next to the bed and handed it toBilly who started putting away his clothes
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cassie was walking to her room on the Mage Ship "I wonder where everyone is?"she asked herself "Oh well it's peaceful here by myself."
"Kim." She stopped dead in her tracks and looked around
"Who said that?" She called out, she looked around there was no one around
"Kim." She heard it again; she looked around and realized she knew the voice
"Andros." She breathed the name when she realized she was right out front ofthe infirmary, she walked slowly into the infirmary
She gasped when she saw Andros tossing on the bed
"I have to contact the others." Cassie raised her wrist to her mouth "Guys,guys get to the Mega Ship now!"
------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Guys, guys get to the Mega Ship now." Came Cassie's voice over Kimberly'scommunicator
"Cassie what's wrong?" Billy asked into his own communicator
"It's Andros get here now!" She exclaimed
Billy looked at Kim then ran to the door and called down the stairs "Mom we'reneeded I'll be back later." Kimberly and Billy teleported in a flash of redand white
------------------------------------------------------------------------
On the Mega Ship Billy and Kim ran into Carlos, TJ, and Ashley who wererunning to the infirmary
"Do you have any idea what's going on?" TJ asked
"No." Kim said as they reached the infirmary "Cassie what is it?" they stoppeddead in their when they saw Andros tossing and turning
"Kim." He said his eyes still closed
"Andros I'm right here." She said as she rushed to his side, Billy grabbed ascanner off a table and started to scan Andros
"This is amazing!" he exclaimed
"Billy what is it?" Ashley asked
"Apparently when Astronama tried to kill Andros yesterday something happenedand the blast from her staff somehow healed him more then it hurt him." Billyreplied looking at the others
"Andros can you hear me?" Kim asked as she squeezed his hand, Andros's eyesmoved around quickly then slowly fluttered open
He blinked a few times "Kim."
Tears came to Kim's eyes "Andros we thought you were gonna_"
"What happened the last thing I remember was we were on KO-35 and Astronamawas about to kill you." Andros said as he sat up slowly
"Easy Andros we have to scan you and make sure you're ok." Billy said
Andros turned his head in Billy's direction "Billy! What are you doing here?"
"I called Billy." Kim said
"You would know Billy wouldn't you." Andros said to Kim "You were bothoriginal power rangers. But still why is he here?"
"Well when you jumped in front of Astronama's staff you were hit and you'vebeen in a coma for two weeks." TJ said
"Yeah and when we went down to earth yesterday to fight a deco monsterAstronama somehow got on the ship and tried to kill you." Ashley said
"So I called Billy to come and help." Kim finished
Billy moved next to Kimberly scanner still in hand and started scanningAndros. When he finished he stood up "According to this you're fine."
Andros hopped off the bed and looked around "Who's been_?" he stopped when hesaw Kimberly wearing the a red shirt under her gray jacket
"Kimberly you've been the red ranger while I was_"
Kim smiled sheepishly "Yeah I guess you'll be wanting this back." Kim startedto take the morpher off her wrist
"Actually." Billy cut in "It will be a few weeks before Andros is in goodenough shape to return to being the red ranger."
Andros turned to Billy "It's good to see you again Billy."
"You too Andros." They hugged each other quickly
"So you still living on Aqutar?" Andros asked
"No actually I'm staying here now." Billy replied
"You are huh?" Andros asked, "Who said you could stay here? I mean it's myship"
"Kimberly did. If you don't want me to stay here I can always go and live withmy parents they already know I'm home." Billy said with a mock expression ofsadness on his face
Andros smiled "No it's fine. But."
"But what?" Billy asked
"You'll need an official uniform. Is white ok?" he asked pushing back hisbrown and blond streaked hair
"That's fine." Billy replied
------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Hey you look good!" Kim exclaimed as Billy and Andros walked onto the bridgeof the Mega Ship
"Who me or him?" Billy asked, Billy was now wearing the same uniform as theothers with a white shirt under the jacket and Andros was back in his uniform
"You both look smashing!" she exclaimed fixing her own jacket "So Billy didAndros give you the grand tour of the Mega Ship?"
"Yup. Now I know where everything is." Billy looked at his watch "I'd betterget back to my house I told my parents I'd be back soon it's been five hours.I'll catch you guys later." Billy left in the direction of his room
Andros leaned against one of the consoles "Kim."
"Yeah."
"Well I was about to ask you something in the park that day all this started."He ran a hand over the top of his head "I was wondering if you wanted to goout with me?"
Kim walked over to him and looked in his brown eyes; Andros moved his facecloser to hers
"I'd love to." Kim said right before they kissed
Andros pulled away slowly "It's a good thing I threw that basketball at youthat day."
Kim giggled "Yeah and it's a good thing I came back to Angel Grove." Shewrapped her arms around his neck
"It's actually a good thing Astronama tried to kill me." He said as he pulledher closer
"Well I wouldn't say it was a good thing." Kim replied
"Yeah I guess it wasn't that good." Andros replied, Andros and Kimberly wereso caught up in each other that they didn't notice the others outside the door
"Aw they're so cute together." Ashley cooed
"Yeah they are." TJ agreed
Carlos put a hand on Billy's shoulder "So Billy tell us what it was like beingone of the original power rangers."
"Well." Billy began as they all started walking down the hall leaving Androsand Kimberly on the bridge "Well we were chosen by Zordon to save the planetfrom Rita Repulsa, she was really evil."
