Author's note:

I'm redoing the Beginnings Bridge. I thought of a much better plot that would be prefect for the story and more exciting. The sections that I did for Beginnings Bridge will be used in flash backs or in future chapters. This new version will be taking place during Zeo. Since the Mighty Morphin Power Ranger movie was an alternate universe, Kimberly and Aisha never left the team during the third season. However, Tanya and Kat will make some appearances.

August 1995

Everywhere throughout Angel Grove High, everyone was talking about the events with Ivan Ooze and to a certain extent, Ryan's Comet. Students were talking about helping Fred Kelman save the missing parents who were under Ivan spell. Others were talking about the Ecto-Morphicons, which were large insect-like machines like the rangers zord's. However, Bulk and Skull were still going on about what they did.

"We were awesome, "Bulk bragged as he walked into Ms. Appleby's classroom.

"We were incredible," Skull went on.

"We were brilliant against Ivan's fifty feet monsters," Bulk continued to brag. "We were facing death straight in the eye."

"We could smell death's breath," Skull remarked as opened a box of mints.

"Death could use a mint," Bulk said.

"Does anyone want a mint?" Skull offered as he got weird stares from his classmates. He reached over and started to twirl her hair around his finger. Her "Kimberly, will you consider going out on a date with me?"

"Will you please not touch my hair!?" Kimberly snapped as she turned around. "I've been dating Tommy for a little over two years and I'm perfectly happy with dating him."

"Someday, you'll meet a girl who will look at you the way you look at Kimberly," Aisha said when she turned around to face him. "But, you need to wait until that time comes."

The bell rang, and the rest of the students walked into the classroom. Tommy walked into the classroom and slide into his seat next to Kimberly. He was wearing a gold metal that he had just received from Mr. Kaplan.

"Class, I'm sure we have a lot to talk about from this weekend's events," Ms. Appleby stated as she walked into her room. "First I'm very proud of our school. The team that came in first was Angel Grove High. And Tommy was the person who came in first for the overall competition and he broke a city record."

Skull noticed one of his mints was sticking to his shirt. Tommy was sitting in front of him and his brown hair was hanging loose. "Hey, Bulk," Skull whispered. "Let's play pin the tail on the donkey."

"There's no donkey," Bulk remarked as he put his box of bubble gum in his pocket.

"I know," Skull said. He drew a picture of the back of Tommy hair in his note book. Above the picture, he wrote pin the mint on Tommy's hair. "The one who covers Tommy's hair gets to stick gum in Tommy's hair and then they get to blow a big bubble and when it pops and covers the winner's face. And they get to stick their piece of gum in Tommy's hair."

"Sounds fun," Bulk whispered as he got out a box of cinnamon mints and opened them. He placed a bunch in his mouth and spit them out in the box. Skull started to do the same thing.

"Class these events have become a big part of Angel Grove History," Ms. Appleby smiled as she continued to talk to the class. "Let's spend today talking about what we experience from these events."

Bulk and Skull had already placed mints in Tommy's hair. Skull was winning so far. This was their big break. They could take a break and tell how they played a big part in history.

"I've heard Ivan Ooze's egg was found in the construction yard. Did anyone experience it or have a friend or family member who saw it."

"Ms. Appleby, we saw it!" Skull exclaimed as he stood up out of his chair. "It was a purple egg."

"I thought you were going to dive out of the plane?" she answered. "You never came to the target zone. What happened?"

"The Stealth Eagle was about to fly," Bulk started. "Which was me. Ditto for the Swooping Swallow was Skull."

"Bulky, there was a lot of air," Skull remarked as some of the classmates started laughing. "You wanted me to jump first. I wasn't going to be crazy. It was your idea."

"I told you that you might want to slip your parachutes on first," Kimberly reminded as Skull walked to the front of the room.

"I put my parachute on and you never did, Skull," Bulk said as he put another mint in Tommy hair. "The plane was running out of fuel and we had to jump. You grabbed me without a parachute and I told you to let go of me."

"Bulky, I couldn't," Skull answered giving Bulk a wink as he watches Bulk put more mints in his mouth.

"You shouted that you wanted your mommy-"

"boys, that was no joking matter!" Ms. Appleby yelled as she got up from her seat. "You are lucky you didn't get seriously injured."

Skull walked back to his seat. "We landed in the construction yard and it didn't look like a target zone," Skull explained as Bulk slipped out his box of bubble gum. "We missed the free food."

"Skull, don't you remember your kicking and screaming threw off the-"

"Lame Duck's sense of direction," Skull finished. "Someone named Dave asked us what we were doing there."

"We told them that we were from the Angel Grove Building Inspectors Office. And they were not wearing proper foot protection."

"Boys that is no joking matter!" Ms. Appleby yelled. "How many times do I have to tell you?"

Mr. Kaplan was walking down the hall and heard Ms. Appleby yelling. He stuck his head in and called Ms. Appleby into the hallway.

"This is our chance," Bulk whispered as they started to both chew gum. They spit it out and stuck it in Tommy's hair along with all the mints in the two boxes. They put more gum in their mouth and started to chew. They both started blowing big bubbles seeing who could blow the biggest bubble.

Meanwhile Ms. Appleby was standing in the hall talking with Mr. Kaplan. "Those boys were talking about crazy stunts that they did-"

"What's going on!" Tommy gasped. "What's in my hair."

Mr. Kaplan and Ms. Appleby walked into the room and found Tommy turned around facing Bulk and Skull. His hair was covered in pink bubble gum and mints.

"Bulk and Skull, you are in big trouble!" yelled Mr. Kaplan. "I want you both in my office now!"

Bulk and Skull got up from their seats and followed Mr. Kaplan down the hall. Tommy's face was red from embarrassment and anger being the center of attention with the bubble gum in his long locks of hair. The lunch bell rang, and everyone got out of their seats to head towards the youth center. "Tommy, I'm really sorry about what happened," Ms. Appleby apologized when Tommy passed her. "I know this is an embarrassing moment-"

"It's okay, Ms. Appleby," Tommy interrupted. He didn't want anyone's sympathy or hearing "I'm sorry". All he wanted was to get cleaned up before anyone else could see how he looked. "I'm going across the street to the Hair salon. My aunt is a beautician and I'm sure she'll be able to make me look decent again."

"Tommy, do you want us to save you a table?" Billy asked as he stopped at the door.

"Actually, I was going to grab a quick bite to eat," Tommy answered. "I was going to the library to work on my history essay."

"And I was going to join him," Kimberly added.

Tommy walked out of the hair salon with short spiky hair. "What do you think, Beautiful?" Tommy asked when he stopped at the bench where Kimberly was sitting at. "Do I look okay?"

"I think you look cute and handsome," Kimberly assured him when she saw his new haircut. "Do you think we've got time to stop and get something to eat before cheerleading tryouts?"

Tommy looked down at his watch and it was 11:45."We've got half an hour before we have to be in the gym," he answered looking up from his watch. "We could stop at sonic and get a corn dog and a drink."

"I love the idea," Kimberly stated when her fingers laced with Tommy's.

After getting a bite to eat, they started to walk back over to the school. "Do you have your clothes that we're supposed to try out in?" Kimberly questioned as the light turned red and they were able to cross the street. "Everyone has to compete in white athletic shoes, a white tee shirt with the Angel Grove logo in the top right corner printed in purple. The boys must be purple gym shorts and the girls must be in dark yellow gym shorts. Everyone competing must wear an Angel Grove jogging over their clothes on the day of tryouts. The jogging suit can be any color."

"We have to either wear crew socks or knee socks. But, they must be solid white," Tommy continued. "Your hair needs to be in ponytail swept out of your face, your make-up must be a classic look, and we need to look our best."

"My clothes are in my gym locker," Kimberly whispered. "I didn't want to get mine dirty before practice."

"And mine is in my gym locker as well," Tommy whispered back. "I'm glad that they are letting boys' tryout for the team this year. I really enjoyed being a male cheerleader during junior high. Wonder if there are any other boys are trying out for the team?"

"I honestly don't know. But, remember that they will be watching to see how well we work together. This morning two girls were arguing over what color socks they were going to wear and what type of hair ribbons they were going to wear."

"I can almost guarantee you that if they keep that up they won't get picked," Tommy said as they walked into the school and headed to the locker rooms to get dressed. "I'll be waiting for you on the bench."

Right before the incident with Ivan, Angel Grove High announced that boys could be on the cheerleading team. That was when Tommy revealed to her that he was a male cheerleader in Junior High and suggested that they tried out for cheerleading together, since they had to try out with a partner. It was true that she hadn't been a cheerleader for a few years. But, maybe them trying out together could be a new adventure for both. If they made the team, they'd be required to training together when they weren't at practice, sitting together on the bus to away games and to competitions.

Kimberly stood in front of the mirror after she had dried her hair and got in her white Angel Grove tee shirt, white crew socks, and yellow gym shorts. She started to apply her make up. She applied some fine chalk powder to her face. Extract from rose petals were used as rouge while she took a stick of kohl and gently lined her with the black powder. Beeswax and light pink dye were mixed together as rubbed on her lips. Her lips were a pale shade of pink about the color of a rose bud.

Tommy sat on the bench dressed in his new shiny Angel Grove jogging suit. His suit was solid green jogging the top right corner of the jacket was the school logo embroidered in white. Kimberly stepped out of the locker room wearing a dark pink Angel Grove jogging suit. "Do I look okay?" she asked as she took a seat next to him and handed him her ribbon. It was a bright purple ribbon with gold trimming on the sides.

"You look prefect now," he answered after he tied the ribbon in her hair. "Let's go to the gym."

They walked to the gym hand in hand and saw other students were dressed in jogging suits in. There were only three other boys who were trying out. Two of them were trying out together, while the other boy was trying out with his girlfriend. All the students were sitting on the bleachers as they waited for Coach Peters and Coach Meyer to call their names. None of the other students who weren't trying out could come into the gym and watch the try outs.

"Kimberly Hart and Tommy Oliver," called Coach Meyer. "You're up."

Present Day

October 1996

It had been over a year since Kimberly's life was turned upside down when she came home proud to tell her parents that both her and Tommy made the cheerleading squad. But, when she came home things were different. Her parents were fighting suddenly, and she didn't know why. It was true her parents had been divorced once before, but they were able to work their differences out and they got back together. After they got remarried, they were constantly arguing and fighting a had often said the S word, "Separate" and they had often said the D word "Divorce" in their arguments. She couldn't understand why they were fighting a lot. Every time she had asked what was going on they told her to mind her own business, to shut up, or to leave them alone.

She stepped out of the shower, wondering if she should tell Tommy the secret. For some reason Andrew knew that she was a power ranger and Tommy was too. He had threatened her if she told anyone that he knew, things wouldn't be pleasant. Caroline knew she was a ranger and asked why she never told. After explaining that it was against the rules and they could lose their powers. She said she was okay with that answer. But, something didn't make sense though. She asked Kimberly if they battled Lord Zedd and if he was dangerous? She asked if Zedd looked like the inside of the human body, wore a sliver mask, and carried a Z staff. And she also asked if he was married to Rita Repulsa. How did she know about Zedd? And how did he know that Zedd was married to Rita? Kimberly still couldn't get Caroline to answer that question.

She glanced at the clock and realized that she was going to be late for her date with Tommy to the movies. She headed to her room and opened her closet and grabbed a sack hanging on the closet door. Angel Grove High was having special event for the seniors. The seniors were being served dinner by the parent volunteers and they were having a dance also that night. Kimberly unzipped her sack and got out a Sweetheart Beaded Bodice A Line Chiffon Floor length dress. The top half of her dress was a rose pink with red sparkles powdered all over it. The bottom half was bright pink which almost looked red. She removed her towel and stepped into her dress. Even though the zipper was in the back, she was able to reach back and zip it up. A pair pink heels were sitting on her bed and she stepped into them.

Meanwhile, Tommy rang the doorbell. He had the prefect look for the dance. A black suit, a white dress shirt, a red tie, and a red dress vest. "Tommy, come on in," Caroline greeted when she opened the door. "Kimberly's upstairs. I've been helping her curl her hair."

"Is she ready yet?"

"Almost, she's putting on her make up. Why don't you go upstairs?"

Tommy walked into the house and passed Mr. Hart.

"Did you even put in consideration when you chose that outfit?" Mr. Hart remarked when he saw Tommy. "Kimberly is in pink and you are in red. I surely would have thought you would have wanted to wear the same color as her."

"She's perfectly fine with it," Tommy answered as he went up the stairs. "We picked our clothes out together."

He opened the door to Kimberly's room and thought she truly looked like a princess. Her Carmel hair was curled, and it was almost as curly as a pig's tail. Her hair was twisted into a messy bun. "You look beautiful!" he complemented walking over to her. "Are you ready?"

"Andrew, please tell me how you know Kimberly and Tommy are rangers?" asked Caroline.

"That is none of your concern!" shouted Andrew.

Tommy's jaw dropped in shock when they were about to leave Kimberly's room. "Kim, please tell me you didn't tell," Tommy muttered as she turned away from him. "Kim, please tell me the truth. Did you tell them?"

"No," Kimberly answered trying to avoid looking into Tommy's face. She knew he'd never believe her. Andrew some way found out for himself and he had never been around during monsters' attacks. He was always working at his sporting good shop. But, he knew that Tommy was a green ranger, a white ranger, and now a red ranger. "I honestly don't know how he knows."

"If you didn't tell him, how did he find out?" Tommy questioned noticing tears were running down her cheeks. "No one else on the team told him."

"Andrew, how is that you know that Tommy and Kimberly are rangers?" Caroline asked in an angry tone. "You said you found out on the day that Kimberly was taken into the woods on the day of the cheerleading game last year. You told me that you weren't at the game. But, you knew Kimberly was carried off by a gold monkey and Tommy ran after the monkey. You knew that Kimberly drank a special potion-"

"-and Tommy's cheerleading uniform was cut off by the gold monkey," finished Andrew. "Tommy was there only in his white boxer shorts with pink hearts. He was later restrained with rope. I wish you could have seen Tommy. From his mouth all the way down to his feet he was in a rope like cocoon."

"How was it that you knew it before Kimberly came home?" Caroline shouted.

"None of your business!" he screamed. "I will say that it is obvious that Tommy is Kimberly's true love. Last year, I told her I was working with a group of people and we wanted to hurt Tommy. Kimberly begged me not to and she followed my orders by not telling anyone about us having trouble or that I knew they were rangers."

"But, how is it that you know so much? You've never told me that?" screamed Caroline.

"I have a secret identity that no one knows about?" answered Andrew in a nasty voice. "That is how I know."

"What is your secret identity?" demanded Caroline.

There was a loud scream and Kimberly and Tommy went down stairs. Caroline was sitting the couch watching TV. "Are you okay?" Kimberly asked when she saw her mother bandaging her hand. "Where's dad?"

"He just had to go to work," Caroline lied trying to act all innocent. She did everything she could to keep a straight face. "I dropped a plate in the kitchen and when I picked it up, I got cut."

"Are you sure that you are okay?" Tommy asked when Caroline put away the first aid kit.

"Yes, I'm fine," Caroline answered. "You're going to be late for the dance. Go have a good time."

She watched her daughter and her boyfriend walk out of the house. Caroline picked up the phone and called her best friend, Jan Oliver.
