Note: There are getting to be more and more people to feed. I'm sure Jason and Wilma are going to be added, and Ariel stepped in to help. Note that the room inside Hondo's camper is tight so about 6 people can be in there and everyone will need to watch their steps so no toes are stepped on.
The more food the better. This is not just about making food but also sharing what resources and responsibilities they have. Ruth has 6 in her camper, so if she can get eggs, meat and oatmeal for trading biscuits and helping out, that is what she will do. Everybody has a job to do, what that job is is mostly on them unless a job is appointed to them. Illness and injury will excuse somebody from their appointed responsibilities.
But everyone has their own kitchens in their campers. Hondo does have the biggest kitchen available but everyone should not be going there as the only source of food and food preparation. It is not that Hondo's supplies and resources are being absorbed by the group, that is not the issue. In the end this Val's kitchen and she runs it as it is needed.
Rabbinic Kosher lists the animals they can not eat, while Biblical Kosher describes what animals can not be eaten. This posses a problem for Mavis in that one of the descriptions says that they can not eat animals with a cloven (split) hoof. Pigs do fit into this category, but so does some goat, sheep and cattle - all depending on their origins. An example of this is Mountain Goat and sheep have a single hoof (like a horse) but several plains goat and sheep have a split hoof like a camel or pig's hoof. Same with certain cattle. The animal is the same or similar, the evolution of their hooves depended on where their species branch evolved.
For her sake, lets assume that the kosher food in the area is kosher enough for her to eat without breaking any rules she lives under.
RPG:
Hondo looks at Ariel and thinks to himself, "Swell. Another mouth to feed." but decides to keep such thoughts to himself. Instead he says to her, "Excuse me, Miss. I got things to do at the moment." He then turns to Val, "Sorry hon. I got to check on our guests, an' on Karl an' get Fernando up and going. So I need you to be in charge of the camp even while we are here."
Val lets out a sigh for a moment before she answers, "I understand. I'll have a breakfast sandwich for you and Fernando ready in a few then."
"Thanks Hon, that is greatly appreciated." Hondo tells her, "I'll see you in a bit.
First thing Hondo does is go into the second trailer of the tractor trailer they brought in night before. Their captives were still there, sitting against the walls with their hands bounded behind him.
"Good mornin' folks. I'm going to release some of you from your bonds so I can get y'all fed. But know this - I do not know the name of this town but General Jastrey runs it and her men are under order to shoot first and ask questions later if any of y'all try to make an attempt to escape. And don't try to start your truck, I disabled it so you're stuck here until we decide what to do with you. As of right now, y'all are under arrest until we get some facts straight out." He explains before he unties Wilma.
"If it were me I would not feed them." A voice says behind him, making Hondo turn around.
"Jefe, I thought you would be still sleepin'!" Hondo says.
"Yeah. But we got a long day, and that day will start without us if we so let it." Fernando walks in with a thermos in one hand and his cane in the other, closing the door behind him. "Now, to get you all in your other trailer." He says as he turns the crystal on his cane before everyone gets teleported into the other trailer's kitchen area, including the dogs and their food and water bowls.
Once in the other trailer, Fernando releases them from their bonds by teleporting them away. "You're free to walk about the camp but you are not allowed to leave the area. There's a water spout about 50 yards into this parking area you can fill up your water tanks with. Wilma and Jason are the only ones that I will allow to go into town and get needed food supplies." He tells them.
"You doomed us all." Karol tells him.
"I don't care what your problem is, Miss. But under arrest means you are under my protection for now and for until I turn you over to the authorities. How dare you try to attack and rob us while we were trying to help." Fernando tells her.
Karol tries to explain her side but Fernando interrupts her from starting, "I don't want to hear it. Not from you, not from anybody. So shut up and feed your brood. We'll be back." He then turns to Hondo, "Let's go check on Karl and the hospital." These words make the trailer group think differently of their captors.
As they get to Karl's SUV, they see Maribelle and Teri step out of Karl's camper. Fernando intercepts them, "Val is in her camper making breakfast. See what you two can do to help before you two can eat. And I mean you two. I do not want to hear that you delegated responsibility to this girl."
Maribelle looks at Fernando for a moment, knowing the voice of authority when she hears it. She does not question the order, just answers, "Will do. Let's go Teri..."
With them out the way, Fernando turns to Hondo, "Lets go check on Karl." It takes then a few seconds to climb into his SUV, finding awake but barely and in a lot of pain.
Fernando hands the thermos bottle to Hondo, "Remember that remedy I gave Tonya?"
"Yeah." Hondo replies.
"I made one for him in there. Just got to get him to sit up and drink it." Fernando explains before turning to Karl. "Karl, I need to to bare the pain but after this I promise you will be fine in a couple of days and all those bandages can come off tonight though you will be weak for a couple of days until you get your strength back up in a couple days. You understand what I'm telling you?"
Karl nods from his laying down position.
"OK, lets do this. Hondo, you take that side and I'll take this side and we can sit him up without too much pain." Fernando explains.
"Ready when you are." Hondo says.
"Lets do this." Fernando says. They both begin to lift Karl up and put him into a sitting position in the rear seat of his camper. Karl groans in pain but it was short lived. Fernando opens up his blankets so his good arm would be freed and then asks Hondo, "Give me the thermos, Please."
"Here ya go." Hondo replies and he hands over the thermos.
Fernando prepares the thermos with a straw out of it. He hands it to Karl, "Drink it all up. it wont taste great but it will get you better, I promise you that."
Karl looks at him as he sniffs the straw, not liking the smell of it.
"Yo, Karl. Remember Tonya was shot up, and Jefe gave her that drink and you can see that she is a lot better than before in a very short amount of time. So if you want to get better, you better drink all of that up." Hondo tells him.
Karl nods though not wanting too. He parts his mouth open bit despite the pain of a broken jaw. Fernando puts the straw into his mouth before Karl closes it. It takes him a couple of minutes to drink down the foul tasting drink from the thermos. It was foul to him as it was meat protein based, and though an omnivore, Karl is more of a vegetarian than a meat eater. Fernando takes the empty thermos.
Fernando hangs a plastic bottle by its handle on the back of the front seat of SUV, "If you need to pee, pee in that." He takes the top cover off it. He continues, "If you need to shit, try to hold it for as long as you can, you'll be in better shape to do without needing help to get out of your SUV in the afternoon than right now."
Karl nods.
"Now rest up." Fernando tells him.
"How about How about we move him over to his camper. It is his camper." Hondo points out.
"You know. You're right. It is his camper. I'm just thinking about his two lady friends interfering and getting him more hurt in the process." Fernando says.
"Well, they know the layout of this town and people to talk too better than most, we can take them with us for the intel." Hondo points out.
"Alright. You get the ladies, I'll get Karl in the camper so he wont need to use the pee-jug. And if you see Jeanette among the living, tell her I want to speak with her. I'll take care of Karl from here." Fernando says as he takes the jug from the back of the SUV's front seat..
"Will do Jefe." Hondo says before he steps out of the SUV.
Fernando twists the crystal on his cane and teleports him and Karl to the camper, with Karl sitting on the edge of the bed and Fernando on the sofa next to him.
"OK Karl. As you know, that door is your bathroom with a toilet and shower. You're taking a shower after the bandages come off tonight. At least now you can go and take care of business when you need it. I'll check up on you when I return from town." Fernando tells him as he unties his arm's cast from his rib cast, "There, that should give you some freedom to move and take care of business. Now lie down and rest up. I'll see you in a few hours."
Karl nods.
Fernando gets up from his seat, and walks out of Karl's camper. Outside he meets with Hondo, Maribelle and Teri. Hondo hands him an egg, meat and cheese sandwich with some coffee in a metal bottle.
As the items are handed over to Fernando, General Jastrey arrives with a few of her men.
"Top of the morning to you." General Jastrey says to them, adding, "You interrogated your prisoners?"
"They have been warned not to leave town without permission, and they know only 2 of them can leave for town for supplies. The rest can walk around the premises to the water spout over there. I'll interrogate them further later, right now we got some business to take care off." Fernando answers.
"AH, yes. The hospital. Well, Lets go. My vehicles are here to take us." General Jastrey tells him.
"Jefe. I told Val to have Jeanette contact you by radio." Hondo tells him.
"Thanks." Fernando replies.
