Chapter Three


Only once in a lifetime love rushes in
Changing you with the tide
And dawn's ribbon of light
Bursts through the dark
Wakening you inside
And I thought it was all untrue
Until there, all at once, I knew



His dark curls bounced madly as he flipped and dodged and ducked. Sweat moistened his tan skin, making him seem to shine in the relatively dim light of the Youth Center. His face was simply perfect -- lean cheeks, noble jaw and chin, delicate nose, and brilliant eyes. His eyes were easily the feature that drew Kim's attention more than any other. They pulled her in like a moth to a flame, like a ship to a whirlpool, or iron to a magnet.

Kim's eyes didn't waver from him through most of the fight. The overwhelming onslaught of emotions startled her, leaving her almost motionless. She bit her lower lip and winced slightly as she saw him hit the mat significantly hard. But he recovered quickly, and leapt to his feet with boundless energy.

"Come on, Jason!" Zack yelled, his voice cutting through Kim's reverie, "Time's running out!"

Kim glanced up, and sure enough, only four seconds remained in this fighter's ballet. Jason was down by one point, for once placing the weight of losing on Jason's shoulders. The referee stepped back, and allowed the two fighters to continue.

The challenger moved in quickly with his powerful high kick, which Jason expertly dodged. He managed to catch the challenger off guard, an delivered a kick to the stomach, which knocked him to the ground and left him vulnerable to another strike to his abdomen. He rose to his feet quickly, hoping to score one more point to gain victory. But the final seconds winded down, leaving the match at a draw.

The voice of the referee was all but drowned in the uproarious applause of the audience. Everyone had thoroughly enjoyed the competition, including Kimberly. Although, she enjoyed the fight for entirely different reasons, as she realized when she went through the motions of applause mechanically, her eyes still fixed on the mysterious fighter who managed to tie Jason.

Chapter Four


When I saw you
When I saw you
I could not breathe, I fell so deep
When I saw you
When I saw you
I'd never be, I'd never be the same...



"Good match, Man," Jason said truthfully, clasping his opponent's hand in a warm shake, "You really had me going."

"Yeah," he responded, his determined expression replaced by a warm smile, "Same here."

"I'll see you around," Jason said, waving as the two seasoned warriors stepped off the mat in opposite directions. Jason walked back to his crowd of friends, his smile giving way to a disappointed frown.

"That was great!" Trini congratulated, as Billy tossed a towel on his friend's shoulder.

"You were awesome, Jason," Zack added, high-fiving him.

Kimberly pulled her attention away from across the room, and smiled at her long time friend, handing him the drink bottle she was carrying. Jason accepted it, and took a long sip.

"Thanks," Jason said, shaking his head, "but I didn't win."

"Come on, Jason," Trini said, throwing her arm around Jason's shoulder, "In karate, its the dignity and spirit with which you compete that's most important."

"I know," Jason replied with a slight sigh, "I'm going to catch a quick shower, and I'll meet you guys at the Juice Bar?"

Trini, Zack, and Billy all agreed, and went up the steps to the counter as Jason walked to the locker room. Kimberly nodded her head, and returned her gaze across the room. She watched as the stranger dried the sweat off his face with a towel, and humbly accepted the congratulations given him by other competitors. She grinned to herself, a warm feeling overcoming her entire body, as she saw him smile with satisfaction. Even from that distance, Kim could tell that he enjoyed the fight, even though he didn't come out the winner. He was the kind who liked the challenge of the fight more than the victory itself. And as she gazed at him, once again he turned in her direction, his eye locking with hers for a moment. She suddenly felt embarassed, and covered herself by mouthing "Congratulations"

. He smiled again, and waved his thanks to her. She then turned away, her cheeks turning slightly pink. But she couldn't rejoin her friends by the Juice Bar. Instead, she stole another quick glance, and saw that he was once again inundated by curious spectators, asking about his training and where he was from. The grin crept onto her face yet again.


Epilogue


With no beginning
And without an end
You're the one for me
Its evident
And your eyes told me so
Your eyes let me know...



Trini rose from her seat at the Juice Bar, and looked back. Somewhere along the short walk from the gym to the bar, the group lost the Pink Ranger. Trini returned to the lower level, and chuckled slightly as she saw her best friend. Kim's back was turned, and her attention was obviously focused on something across the room. From her vantage point, Trini followed Kim's gaze, and her own deep brown eyes studied the young man. She shook her head with amusement, and strolled beside Kimberly, who was still in another world.

"Kim, are you coming?" Trini called, coming to a stop beside Kim. She grinned again when Kimberly didn't answer.

"He's gorgeous, isn't he?" Trini commented in a low tone, gripping Kim's shoulder. Kim blinked, the rosy blush on her cheeks returning.

Kim smiled with embarrassment, returning her gaze to him. "Yeah, you can say that again."

"Well, maybe you'll catch him at school tomorrow," Trini said, gently guiding Kim to the Juice Bar.

Kim nodded. "Yeah."

As the two girls went to join their friends, Trini couldn't help but notice Kim's dreamy expression. True, Kimberly had always kept her eyes open for a cute guy, but this was much different from any previous occasion. This wasn't some little crush that'll blow over. The young man had monopolized Kim's undivided attention through the fight, and perhaps more. Trini noted the astounding difference in Kim, and was convinced that this simple martial arts competition had drastically altered Kim's outlook. Kimberly Hart would never be the same again.

When I saw you
When I saw you
I could not breathe, I fell so deep
When I saw you
When I saw you
I'd never be, I'd never be the same...

Power Rangers



When the threat of Earth being taken over by Rita Repulsa arose after she was freed from her dumpster prison on the Moon, a wise old sage named Zordon, who had established a Command Center in Angel Grove, recruited five teenagers to assume the power of the Morphing Grid to defend the planet as Power Rangers - Jason, Zack, Kimberly, Billy, and Trini. When the battle escalated, they would call on their individual assault vehicles named Zords and destroy the monsters who threatened peace in Angel Grove, all while trying to live normal lives as high school students.

The Rangers have gone through many roster, Zord, and power changes. Rita gave the Dragon Coin to a new student at Angel Grove High- Tommy, who fought against the Rangers as the evil Green Ranger, and later joined the team once the spell over him was broken. Tommy eventually lost his powers as the Green Ranger and gained new powers as the White Ranger.

To defeat Lord Zedd, who arrived to take over Rita's task, the Rangers needed to upgrade their Dinozords into Thunderzords, and later bring back Tommy as the White Ranger. Shortly after, Jason, Zack and Trini left for Switzerland to attend a peace conference, and left their powers to three allies of the Rangers- Rocky, Adam and Aisha, who became the new Red, Yellow, and Black Rangers.
