Smith Residence
San Diego, California
October 31st. 2002 (Halloween)
Every year, the law office of Johnson, Parker & Smith host their annual Halloween party at whoever senior partner's house in San Diego, with a huge charitable component attached to it. This year happens to be no different; with Brenda Smith, one of the three senior partners, having the honor of hosting this year's event at a huge mansion she shares with her loving husband of eight years Nathan and their adorable four year old daughter Fiona.
This year, the proceeds of the party goes to the Los Angeles chapter of the Make-A-Wish foundation, a non profit organization dedicated to make wishes come true for terminally ill children. And the guests who showed up turned out big time in their respective costumes and making this party look and feel alive.
Among those who decided to attend was Trini, dressed up as Princess Jasmine from the movie Aladdin and Jason dressed up as a well dressed and sexy Dracula, completed with fake fangs in his mouth. They made their way through the huge decorated patio and backyard, drinking glasses of champagne and saying hello to the other attendees. He has his arm wrapped securely around her waist; silently letting everyone know that she's with him and he has no intentions of letting her out of his sight tonight.
For Trini, seeing Jason being a little bit possessive with her was somewhat surprising, but also a major turn on. She couldn't wait to get him home, rip his clothes off and have her way with him.
And the feeling was definitely mutual as far as he was concerned.
"Did I mention that you look incredibly sexy tonight, Tiger?" he whispered in her ear.
She blushed something terrible. "Whoa, there, Rex. Let's just get through with the party, then I'll take you home and we can have all the fun we want."
"I'll hold you to that, or else I'll have no problem sinking my fangs in your neck and sucking your blood, if you know what I mean," he replied, wagging his eyebrows suggestively.
She threw her head back and laughed. "You are horrible, Dracula!"
"Can you blame me, gorgeous?" Jason winked at her.
Trini smiled before she leaned over and captured his earlobe with her teeth, causing him to roll his eyes in the back of his head. When she pulled away, she had a seductive look on her face.
"No, I can't blame you. Just for the record, I'm not wearing any panties," she whispered in his ear, causing him to look at her in shock and awe.
"N-no panties?" he croaked.
She shook her head and smirked. "No panties, baby. If you're a good boy, Brenda may let me use one of the guest rooms in the house for us to have some fun. She and I have gotten close."
"You, Trinity Jade Kwan, are one bad girl. I like that," another female voice jumped in, which startled Trini and Jason. They both breathed a sigh of relief when Brenda made her presence felt by worming her way through the crowd, with her husband Nate trailing right behind her.
"Brenda, I'm sorry, I was just being playful with my boyfriend and..." Trini rambled, but Brenda placed her hand on the other woman's shoulder and smiled.
"Honey, don't worry about it. Nate and I still get frisky. We're all adults here," Brenda assured her with a wink.
Trini breathed a sigh of relief and placed her hand on her chest. "Oh, thank goodness. I was worried there for a second."
"Like I said, don't worry about it. Now, why don't we all introduce ourselves? I'm Brenda, one of the senior partners at the law firm and this is my husband Nate," Brenda said, sticking her hand out at Jason, who eagerly took it and the two ended up shaking hands.
"Nice to meet you, Brenda and Nate. I'm Jason Lee Scott. I work in real estate in Malibu," Jason replied, smiling brightly.
"Nice to meet you, mate. I'm an architect and land developer here in San Diego. I think we could end up working together somewhere down the line," Nate replied, smirking.
Jason chuckled. "Hey, anything's possible, right?"
"Right. Now, Trini tells me that you two have known each other since elementary school. What was it like growing up together?" Brenda asked as they sat down on the patio chairs.
Trini laughed softly as she sat down right on Jason's lap, catching him off guard. "Well, it's been one hell of a journey, but needless to say, Jason and I have balanced each other out over the years. I was the calm one, the peaceful one and he's the leader, the brave one, the one who always stands up for others. We've been close for a long time, however, when we ended up going to Geneva, Switzerland for the peace conference, we just gradually grew up and found different paths in our lives."
"Also, I was getting homesick, so I decided to move back to Angel Grove to finish out my senior year in high school. Trini and I lost touch for eight years, but then, fate has a way to intervene and when she moved back here and we saw each other again, it didn't take us long to make up for lost time," Jason chimed in.
"Almost as similar as me and Brenda went through. We drifted apart when I joined the Navy and she went on to law school. Then, I found out that she was getting married and was pregnant, I was crushed. However, after learning that she got jilted at her wedding, lost her unborn child and lumped into a deep state of depression, I felt hopeful that we could find each other again. Eight years and our beautiful little princess later, I couldn't be happier," Nate said, leaning over and kissing Brenda softly and making her grin foolishly.
"So, we both found a second chance at love," Trini said with a warm smile on her face.
Brenda said as she raised her glass up. "To second chances."
"To second chances," Trini, Jason and Nate replied as they clinked their glasses together.
"So, mate, what do you do in your down time?" Nate asked after they took a sip of their champagne.
Jason breathed heavily. "I recently opened up my own dojo in Malibu, called the Red Dragon. I still practice martial arts whenever I get the chance."
"Oh, really? How long have you been studying? What style do you practice?" Nate asked, looking curious.
"Well, I've been into the arts since I was five and I love it. I mostly practice Tae Kwan Do and Kenpo; with a little Judo along the way. I used to teach a lot of karate classes at the youth center back in high school," Jason explained.
"Well, now, if you don't mind, I'd love to stop by your studio one day and maybe we can spar. I'm a martial artist myself, though I have been out of the sport for a while because of my busy career," Nate said, looking a little bit sad.
Jason smiled at his new friend. "Hey, man, I don't mind at all. In fact, I could always use some extra help at the dojo. I'm a busy man myself, so the only time I can teach is on the weekends."
"And he's really good at what he does. He has helped me with my craft a lot," Trini chimed in, smiling at her man.
"What style of martial arts do you study, Trini?" Brenda asked, looking curious.
"Mostly Shaolin Kung Fu, but I've also studied Mantis Kung Fu thanks to my sessions with Master Li. Thanks to Jason, I'm getting back into it," Trini explained, letting out a deep breath.
"I'm with you on that, Tri. I used to study myself, but between my career, my marriage and chasing a four-year-old around, I haven't had time to relearn anything. Maybe you and I should get together and teach other a few things," Brenda suggested with a grin.
"You know something? I have a feeling this is a beginning of a beautiful friendship, mates," Nate said, raising his glass up in the air.
"Baby, I'll drink to that," Brenda said as she, Trini and Jason clinked their glasses with Nate's and the two couples exchanged kisses with one another.
And, with that, the party and their newfound friendship continued.

Boston Medical Building
Boston, Massachusetts
November 2nd, 2002
Sitting nervously in her therapist's office, Vivian felt her right leg was shaking as she awaited her first therapy session. It has been a rough few weeks for the Chinese beauty; starting with when she landed back in Boston, her father ended up in the hospital with a minor stroke and her mother having a nervous breakdown as a result. Realizing that she has to step up to the plate, she promptly took over and made sure that both of her parents were doing alright once they were released from the hospital and found refuge in her home.
Then, she made the painful decision to leave the law firm she had worked there the longest because Russell was still there and one of the conditions of her probation that she has to leave. Not having to be in the same room, much less be in the same building with the man who turned her life upside down was disheartening, but also liberating. In order for her to move on with her life, Vivian has to put forth the effort to say goodbye to her ex-fiancé, her friends and her co-workers she has known for so long.
However, there was a light at the end of the tunnel. Shortly after turning her resignation papers, a law firm named Furlong, Vincent & Anderson contacted her with a job opportunity in West Newbury. With nothing else to lose, she agreed to an interview and rather than using her manipulative tactics in order to get the job, she was honest, impressive and proved to them why she deserves to be there. She also informed them of her current situation concerning her, Russell and the unfortunate incident in San Diego that left them both clinging to life and her getting probation. Vivian had no intention of withholding any information from her life.
Well, honesty turned out to be the best policy because after that interview, she got the job, much to the delight of her parents when she told them as soon as she got home. They celebrated by having a nice dinner at a fancy French restaurant.
Now, she here, waiting for her therapist to show up. Vivian still has some emotional and deep seeded issues to sort out and she can't do it on her own. It's up to her to get herself together, but as long as she got her family, her friends and her faith, she'll get through it with a big smile on her face.
Her breath was caught right in her throat when the door opened and her therapist finally made his presence felt a few minutes later. She had to take a moment to fully survey him as he looked over at her with a smile on his face.
"Hi, Ms. Huang. My name is Dr. Ronald Chen. I'm sorry for taking so long, but I had some other patients to attend to. Have you been waiting long?" he asked as he sat his things down on his desk and pulled his reading glasses out of his carrying case and promptly slipped them on over his face.
"Uh, no. To be honest, I'm kinda nervous being here," she honestly told him.
He narrowed his dark brown eyes at her. "You have nothing to be nervous about. I'm not gonna bite. I'm here to help you sort out your life and by the end of our sessions together, you're gonna come out of this a much better woman."
"Well, thank you, Doc. I know I have a lot of work to do, but I trust you," she replied, feeling a little bit more at ease.
"Now, looking over your file, Ms. Huang, I understand that you were in a long term relationship with a Mr. Russell Chang. You two were even engaged to be married at one point?" he asked as he sat down right across from her and looked over some files he had in his hands.
Vivian sighed deeply. "Yes, we were. Needless to say, it was a roller coaster ride. A lot of things happened in the course of our relationship and, unfortunately, my jealously, my insecurity and my bruised ego got in the way of our impending nuptials; not to mention, I had a lot of misplaced anger aim at another woman who worked at the same law firm. Out of respect, I'm not gonna reveal her name."
"Ms. Huang, you're back in Boston, not San Diego or Angel Grove. I'm sure whoever this woman is won't be coming after you," Ronald assured her with a small smile on his face.
"Okay, well, her name is Trini and she worked at the same law firm. I didn't like her because I thought she was trying to take my career away from me, even though she really wasn't. Furthermore, I truly believed she stole Russell away from me, which turned out to be a lie because he was the one who pursued her, not the other way around," she started explaining.
He looked up at her with a sympathetic look on his face. "Ms. Huang, Vivian, I look at you and I see a beautiful, smart, vivacious woman who worked hard to get to where she is and didn't let anyone stand in her way."
She blushed something terrible. She wasn't trying to read into things, but from the way he was complimenting her, it sounded like her therapist was flirting with her. However, she can't allow herself to fall for his charms right now because she has a lot of healing to do and the last thing she needs is to jump into another relationship that could spell disaster in the long run.
However, as she continued her session with Ronald, Vivian really took the time to look at him. He was handsome, all right. His short, jet black hair was slicked back and looking shiny, his face was sun kissed and golden and his brown eyes were perfectly almond shaped. He looked more like a martial arts action superstar than a therapist and that made her heart beat madly.
Though she was only here for business, she was intrigued and anxious to spend more time with him as she embarks on a new journey.
A journey into a much better, more meaningful life.

Oliver Residence
Reefside, California
November 4th, 2002
It was a beautiful Saturday afternoon in the small town of Reefside and the atmosphere was electric at the home of Tommy and Kimberly Oliver, the original 'power couple' of the ranger family. Their backyard and patio was filled with their closest friends and family because the weather was beautiful and they decided to take advantage of it by having a party. And there was a perfectly good reason why there was a huge bash happening at their house.
In addition to celebrating Jason and Trini embarking on their new romantic connection, they also learned that Billy and Kat's planned visit back home for the holidays has been pushed up due to them finally getting some down time in Sydney. Kat had finally finished touring with the dance company she was contracted to and Billy, being the founder and CEO of his own computer software company, finally caught a break and decided to take the opportunity to visit their friends; with some big news along the way.
Now, Zordon's original 11 rangers were all together again and having a grand old time. Trini, Kim and Aisha were putting plates of food on the table and Aisha had to do everything in her power to prevent her food-hungry husband from eating everything in sight, which caused the original pink and yellow rangers to laugh. Kat, Tanya and Angela were having fun playing the keyboards and singing out loud while the men in their lives were playfully getting their butt kicked by Tommy and Kim's adorable two-year-old daughter Hannah.
"Would you look at that? Our guys are being taken down by a two-year-old," Kim snickered, pointing at her daughter standing tall with her hands on her hips. The guys were laid, sprawling on the freshly cut green grass.
Trini threw her head back and laughed. "I have a sinking feeling you could be raising a future ranger, pinkie."
"Are you kidding me? She's already in training thanks to her daddy," Kim replied, shaking her head.
"I just hope that when I have a baby, he or she don't end up with Rocky's appetite," Aisha chuckled loudly, causing Rocky to look over his shoulder and glared playfully at his wife.
"I heard that, mama bear!" he mocked, sticking his tongue out at her.
"Love you, too, ape boy!" she yelled back, winking at him.
"So, Trini, we haven't heard from you in a minute. Does it have to do with a certain red ranger occupying your time?" Kim teased as the three ladies sat down on the lawn chairs.
Trini rolled her eyes and blushed. "Guys, my world doesn't revolve around Jason. I do have a career."
"Maybe, but, come on, girl. Give us the juicy details. You can't keep us hanging," Aisha pressed, placing her hands underneath her chin and leaning in so that she wouldn't be left out.
"If you must know, things have been amazing between us. I thought I was through with love after the whole Russell fiasco, however, Jason has clearly changed my mind and shown me that it's not too late. And, man, ever since I moved back home, things have definitely changed between us," Trini explained, her eyes sparkling.
Kim grinned foolishly. "I'm happy for you and my big bro. If anyone deserves happiness, it's you two. I'm just bummed that it took you this long for realize what was in front of you all along."
"Yeah, but you have to understand that I was so oblivious to my feelings for him because I didn't see him anymore than a friend. I didn't know he harbored any feelings for me; even when we were over in Geneva, we both kept our feelings to ourselves because we were afraid. Then, I ended up moving to Boston and I thought I had a chance at love when Russell came into my life. And we all know what happened at my wedding," Trini replied, looking a little bit somber.
"Oh, honey, don't worry about it. The most important thing, you and Jason are together and we couldn't be happier. Now, how's the sex?" Aisha asked, causing Trini and Kim to look at her in shock.
"Really? You're really gonna ask me that?" Trini asked, her eyes widened in surprise.
"Don't try to downplay it, girlfriend. So, come on, spill. Did that baby doll dress you bought from Victoria's Secret seal the deal?" Aisha pressed on, winking at the original yellow ranger.
Trini smirked evilly. "All I will say about the matter is...it's a miracle I can even walk."
"WHAT?!" Kim and Aisha shouted, causing everyone else in the backyard to stop in their tracks and look at the three ladies.
"Just some girl talk, no biggie," Trini quickly said, causing everyone to shrug their shoulders and went back to what they were doing before.
"Okay, so in other words, the sex was that good?!" Kim hissed, looking at her best friend in wonder.
Trini felt her face turned into a deep shade of red. "It was incredible, ladies. I thought my legs were gonna fall off because he and I tossed and turned all over his bed. The only time we left his bedroom was when we had breakfast, but after that, we went right back to bed and made love several more times before I went home. I didn't wanna leave."
"Whew, girl, maybe I need to take a cue from you and take my ape boy back home and have a few rounds with him," Aisha said, fanning herself with her hands.
Kim just grinned. "Thanks for the inspiration, Tri. After I put Hannah to bed tonight, I'm gonna have to take my rainbow warrior husband for the ride of his life."
"Glad to be of help, ladies," Trini said before the ladies burst out laughing.
"What are you three beautiful ladies laughing and giggling about?" Jason asked as he decided to join them, holding a bottle of beer in his hands. Trini looked up at him with a grin as she got up from her chair and went right over to him; wrapping her arms around his neck.
"They wanted to know about our hot night almost two months ago. I told them the sex was incredible and it's a miracle I can walk," she leaned over and whispered in his ear, causing him to grin at her foolishly.
"You're gonna be the death of me one of these days," he winked at her.
"But what a way to go, right?" she finished for him. He didn't say another word, but his lips pressing against hers said it all.
"Hey, you two; knock it off," Aisha playfully teased, causing the original rangers to pull apart.
"I'm not gonna apologize for kissing my tiger," Jason declared, wrapping his arm around her waist. Trini yelped in surprise when he playfully slapped her butt.
"Getting frisky, aren't we, Mr. Scott? Just remember this: I can give it good as I got," she said, causing him to roll his eyes in the back of his head.
"So...if we leave right now, you think anyone will notice?" he asked, causing the ladies to burst out laughing.
"Big bro, leave her alone and let her breathe," Kim chimed in, playfully swatting his arm.
He just shrugged his shoulders and squeezed Trini closer to him. "Oh, well. You can't blame me for trying."
"Attention, everyone. Kat and I have something important to tell you all," Billy said, tapping his bottle of beer with a butter knife. Everyone stopped what they were doing and quickly surrounded the original blue ranger, with Kat standing right next to him and holding his hand.
"So, my main brain, what's the big news you got to share with us?" Zack asked, getting right to the point. Angela drilled her elbow into his side, causing him to double over in pain for a second.
Billy smiled as he squeezed his wife's hand. "Well, we have some big news to share with you. For one, we're having a baby."
"Oh, my gosh, congratulations, you two!" Kim squealed with delight as she reached over and hugged them both.
"Well, it gets even better. We're expecting twins; a boy and a girl," Kat revealed with the biggest smile on her face.
"Twins?! Man, Billy, you don't waste any time, do ya?" Rocky joked.
"ROCKY!" everyone screamed at him, causing him to shrink back in fear. Aisha just placed her hand on his shoulder and shook her head.
"Anyway, before we were so rudely interrupted, we have one more big news to share with you. As you all know, we've been living in the land down under (no pun intended) for the last five years; with my career as a professional dancer and him running his computer software company. Well, since I'm pregnant, I'm gonna be retiring from dancing so I could focus on our family," Kat continued.
"Not to mention," Billy jumped in, "my computer company is doing so well that I'm opening up a second office right here in the good old USA."
"So, wait, you're moving back here?" Adam asked, getting a little bit excited.
"Not only are we moving back stateside, but we're moving back here in California. Kat and I are gonna be living in the O.C.!" Billy announced, placing his hand on his wife's growing belly and feeling the twins kicking.
Everyone clapped and cheered; clinking their glasses and bottles of beer together in celebration of the Cranstons moving back home; albeit not in Angel Grove, but at least they'll be much closer and won't have to require any of them to travel very far.
Even Zordon would be pleased.
