"But why didn't we all show up at the same time and in the same place?" she wondered aloud. Kei 1 downed another shot. "I think I can answer that one, kids." she said. Our namesakes from our past messed up the 'Kronos' project in AD 2140. That opened a rift in the space/time continuum which caused our godson (Keitarou Riff) to jump from AD 2268 to AD 2250! When you kids left Terra oro was the year?" asked the redhead. Mako looked at her and said "1983 ma'am. And we aren't kids!" Kei 1 grinned. "Then just oro the jigoku are you? You're 12 year old pre-teens for Kami's sake!" she said. "Now our chief has told us that the 'Kronos' project will not be repaired completely until the week after our New Year's (AD 2251). We're hoping that when that rift is closed, everyone will return automatically to their own spaces and times. Our two namesakes arrived with one time lord on that TARDIS and Keitarou, our godson, arrived on that one with the other time lord. We have a freighter pilot named Han Solo aboard and a group of space 'cowboys' or bounty hunters from the 'Bebop' aboard as well. The 'Bebop' is their ship's name. They are all from this current time. The mall security chief, Spike Miroku and Legato Bluesummers, our assistant pilot are also from AD 2250. We are now bound for Kagura, a planet in the Orion Nebulae to celebrate the New Year. So, Zoe and Leila, four more places for meals and yet another 'beastie' for Jamie to feed." she said. Yuri 1 whispered to her anxiously.
"Where the oni are we going to put them?" she asked urgently. Kei 1 frowned. "You and Kome can take one in with you. Mar and I can take one in with us. Faye already has Serena and Ed. Leila can take one and Zoe can take the other one, OK?" she asked. Yuri 1 nodded and clapped her hands together. "OK girls, listen up! These are the sleeping arrangements for you. Kome and I will take Ami in with us. Rei, you're in with Mar and Kei. Mina, you're in with Leila and Mako, you're in with Zoe. Now, it's way past your bedtime so we will take you to your rooms as soon as you finish eating." said Yuri 1, picking up the four backpacks (which she found to contain nothing more lethal than clothing, flashlights, mangas, school books, junk food and radios.), and returning them to their owners. Zoe and Leila cleared away the dishes before joining Kei 1 and Yuri 1 to escort their four newest arrivals to their respective rooms.
"Did anybody remember o bring their jammies along?" asked Yuri 1 sweetly. The scouts stared at her with a mixture of amazement and confusion! "She means pajamas kids." explained Kei 1. The four scouts shook their heads. "Don't worry, we have plenty of night stuff, slippers and kimonos on hand for you guys." said Yuri 1 brightly. "OK Serena, you can go back to bed now Honey." she added. Seeing five puzzled and perplexed expressions, Kei 1 said "She gets like this around kids, girls. But she's really quite harmless." Yuri 1 looked daggers at her superior. "I'll get you back for that one, Kei!" she whispered.
Then they handed over Mina and Mako to Leila and Zoe respectively which left only Ami and Rei still with the two tro-cons. "Come with me Ami." said Yuri 1, throwing open the door to her quarters which she shared with Kome. She indicated the bunk beside her own. "You sleep there dear. (She pointed out the closet and bureau) Kimonos are in there (closet). Jammies and underthings are in there (bureau). Bathroom's over there, the last door on the right. The middle door is Kome's room. Onegai don't go in there. Good night Ami." said Yuri 1, bidding Kei 1 good night and closing the hallway doors.
"Looks like you're stuck with us, kid." said Kei 1, hustling Rei down the hall to her own quarters. She threw open the outer door and the farthest inner door on the left. She pointed to a neatly made bunk beside a very sloppy one. "OK, Rei, you bunk there, kid. Pointing to an untidy heap in the closet covered with weapon manuals, she said "Kimonos and pajamas are in there somewhere. Underthings are in that thing (chest of drawers beside closet). Bathroom's the middle door. The door on starboard (right) is Marlene's room. Stay out of there. Morning seems to come pretty quick 'round here. At least when you can get some! Good night kid." she said, dropping heavily onto her own bunk. Eventually, both the CO and the Exec dropped off into slumber.
