"Good. Now who will be sleeping where?" Fernando throws in.

"Well, first off it would be better if the younger girls had their own room and you and Jeanette in another room." Fernando begins.
 
"Now, Elsa, Anna. When you two wake up, Anna will be back home in Arendelle. But I promise that she will be back to visit you again in a few days. You both need to behave at all times, not just when you two are together." He continues, before taking a random key from Hikaru "Now, if you ladies do not mind, Macey and I are going to see Hondo about getting the main batteries to the electric camper charged. Maybe he has something I can use."
 
Closing up and locking the doors to secure the electric camper, Fernando begins his walk to Hondo's camp at the truck stop, "Come on, Macey. Lets go."

Fernando tosses the key to Jeanette, "You figure it out. From the looks of it, I'll get my own room. Now let me ask Hondo about charging some batteries or we'll be stuck here while the solar panels charge them up during the day. Come on, Macey... lets go."

(Note: Remember - Hikaru only took one room with a Queen size bed, all the other beds are twin sized. If the girls are going to sleep together in the same bed, it will have to be on the Queen sized bed. Just pointing that out.
 
and I forgot - leave what keys Jeanette decides Fernando should have on the dashboard of the electric camper.
 
**In collaboration with Hondo**)
 
The walk to the truck stop was not long. Fernando notices that the people within the truck stop were going in and out of town without going through a 'mutant search' but those who were driving into town were. The police force, or lack thereof, was more concentrated at the tool gate than at any place else he sees in the immediate area. Thus he was not surprised to see some goons take care of a non-paying customer thrown out of the truck-stop bar. He knocks on the only door Hondo's camper has in the rear of his truck.
 
The rear door opens with Hondo cradling a shotgun, "Hey! Jefe, come inside..."
 
"Having trouble with the locals?" Fernando asks before lifting Macey into the doorway.
 
"Nothing I can handle, just idiots askin' for handouts, a job or a ride. You know, casin' out the rides." Hondo points out.
 
"Yeah, I seen some security goons take care of a non-paying customer at the bar over there." Fernando says as he climbs into the back of the truck. It's been a while since he seen this camper, or one like it they put together for a mission a couple years before. "I like what you did here."
 
"Oh, this? This is a different ride from the one you helped me with. I took the best from that to make this one. Come. Have a seat. Burgers, Beans and Macaroni Salad good enough for you?" Hondo says and asks.
 
"Squirrel roasting on a stick would be good at this point." Fernando answers.
 
"Local food not agreein' with you?" Hondo asks.
 
"You know I need to have things as fresh as possible. It's not Pierre's of Madison but you know I'll eat what is around in order to survive." Fernando explains.
 
"Then I hope this will suffice." Hondo says as Val serves plate of their finest of what they got. He adds, "Who's the girl, other than you sayin' she's yours."
 
"This is Macey. I rescued her from her mother who runs a whore house two towns back. I found her hiding under my electric camper, and seeing the condition she was in as a street urchin, well you know, she needed to be rescued. So rescue I did. Strangely enough, her mother gave me all her papers and transferred parenting rights to me. Her and I got a lot of catching up to do as being father and daughter but that is not a problem for me. You know a father does not have to have had to be biologically connected to the child to be a father, just be there to teach and love them as one's own." Fernando says as he takes Macey by the waist and onto his lap, putting the fork into her hand and lets her take from his share of the meal.
 
"I see. Was she... err... turning tricks?" Hondo asks.
 
"She tells me no, and I'll take her word for it. I just have to deprogram her from what she learned being in a whore house. What about you?" Fernando answers.
 
"Typical adventures before findin' you. But first, what is this crap about Spirits Manipulatin' History?" Hondo asks.
 
"I need to research what happened but there are several spirit groups. some cooperating with these and others not. It's like the Council of 5 and the Andromeda Council were either ignored or defeated from extraterrestrial influence on Earth's history. I just need to know where and sent ET and Pals back to where they came from." Fernando explains to him.
 
"I see. Anything you need me to do, and we'll do it." Hondo says.
 
"Thanks. I can't pay anything for this mission but it will be appreciated." Fernando replies.
 
"I think we were already paid. I got a chest of gold and silver coins and ammo from an Indian tribe we first met. They gave me a test of solvin' a Rubix Cube to get it." Hondo says.
 
"So did I but I handed it over to Jeanette for her to take care of it. Not that it is a mistake, but I think she's going to hit every hotel from here to Texas, and mispend the money before we can get to where we need to go." Fernando points out.
 
"I'm not surprised she's spendin' it all on shoes and make up by now." Hondo jokes.
 
"Maybe we can increase what we got with the local poker games. But not here. I need to charge up some batteries in the electric camper and run some extra wires and a couple switches to the dash to properly set up the truck batteries I got in the last town, they should be enough to run the ride for a couple weeks but just in case, you know." Fernando explains.
 
"Yeah, one can never have enough electrical power. Will the motor charge the battery if it is towed?"  Hondo says and asks.
 
"From what I seen, yes." Fernando answers.
 
"Then I'll just tow your ride until the batteries git charged up. And I have a couple of generators if you need them." Hondo points out.
 
"Thanks. I just wonder how is all this going to work out in the end. I know you got supplies and things to last a while, it is unfair for us to leech from your pile." Fernando says.
 
"What ever. Like I said before, I'll do what I can to help out. I'm not here to serve myself." Hondo explains himself.
 
"You know and I know that." Fernando adds. He then looks at the near empty plate, "Don't tell me you were that hungry." Macey could only look back at Fernando before he adds, "It's OK. But you should not gorge your self up like that or you're going to get a stomach ache."
 
"I see she does not talk much." Hondo points out.
 
"Oh, she talks. Once she gets used to you, and once she figures out what she can say around all of us. Like I said, deprogramming her will be a top priority." Fernando says.
 
"So what's the plan for the mornin'?" Hondo asks.
 
"I don't know. I need some work done on the electric camper. Maybe if you can, get me some battery cables, switches and replays for me to do the rewiring on the VW Camper from the local parts shop or market." Fernando answers.
 
"I can do that and lend you an extra pair of hands to get the job done." Hondo says.
 
"Thanks." Fernando replies, throwing in, "You got seconds?"
 
"We got more than enough..." Hondo answers.

"Thanks for offer but I'll pass on it this time. Got to set an example, you know. But she'll take a bit of soda." Fernando says, "The another tow trailer sounds good. Knowing us, we are going to rescue every waif and street urchin on top of the ones the spirits want us to rescue. The campers do not have the room to support that many people and we will be buying food by the ton to feed them all, and yet, Jeanette want to spend it on hotels. Go figure."
 
"I see how that is goin' to be a problem." Hondo says, "Looks like we are goin' to hit every market and food store between here and where ever it is we are going."
 
"You know how to haggle for the best deals." Fernando points out.
 
"If there are deals to be had." Hondo throws back.
 
"I'm sure you'll find something in the morning for us. No doubt Jeanette and the others will do some shopping, Hikaru needs a coat and a few other things to wear." Fernando explains.
