Charles went to Misao and growls too.  
 
Charles: One thing Misao, NSA is higher than your CIA. So You need to play ball with me and Nando. Or you will be arrested for interfering in any mission. Also Chip can’t be save anymore. President Obama and Emperor made a deal.  
 
Then Obama came in  
 
President Obama: We Give Chip to Japan for mending of relationship between USA And Japan. Also We stripped Chip of his US Citizenship. So He not a American Citizen anymore. If you Misao go against me, Charles, Fernando and Emperor, Then your Citizenship will be Strip too. DO I MAKE MY SELF CLEAR?  
 
Misao growls. Then nodding. Cristal.  
 
President Obama: Good Now leave us.  
 
Then Misao left. Growling  
 
President Obama talking to Fernando.  
 
President Obama: Don’t worry Chip is staying in Japan. They going to deal with him.  
 
Charles: Misao can be a jerk. But she will be stubborn anyway.  
 
Then the Emperor came towards them.
 
Emperor: Hello President Obama, Agent Charles and Fernando. Are you enjoying the party?  
 
Charles: Yes we are Emperor also I want you to meet my wife Widget.  
 
Widget: Hello
 
Emperor: Ah she is a fine woman and lucky she have you.  
 
Widget bows to the Emperor: Thanks  
 
Emperor: So Chip is Japan problem now. Still thinking want to do the Death Penalty or Keep him in jail for 10-20 Years. Or Something Punished him since he did abuse Woman. I want to get a ideal form you three.  
 
Charles: Death Penalty  
 
President Obama: Death Penalty.

Edit: Grammar/Spelling fixed by Fernando

Gadget returns to Fernando’s side with a drink in her hand.
 
“Thank you, Gadget.” Fernando says as he takes the drink from her. He then turns to Jeanette, “I was not going to speak about anyone who is not here. But you heard of my discussion with Misao and how I am going to implicate her if anything happens to my baby because Tammy is out in Italy on some get-high binge because Chip turned her into a drug and sex addict.” He then puts an arm around Gadget’s waist, pulling her against him, “Right now outside of Hondo, Val and my daughters, this woman right here is the only one I can trust with various secrets and actions I do like I once did with you and as such has hired her as my secretary. You on the other hand have lose my trust and are slowly losing my respect because you took that bitch to be more important than that of my wife and daughter who you were hired to assist and take care of. In short, Jeanette, you were derelict in your job in taking care of them. If you were arrested like Aiesha had, I would have taken that into consider. But instead you took that bitch Misao as a higher priority than the job you were hired to do. And you want to know about Chip and what happened to him?”
 
Jeanette stands there indignant of what she was told. But then Gadget steps in.
 
“You want to know about my former husband?” Gadget asks.
 
“Former?” Jeanette asks.
 
“She wants to know about: Tammy and I, you – Gadget and I, and what is going on with Chip and the Rangers. Misao thinks that things will be restored to the Rescue Rangers and Chip will be freed from the Japanese Legal system to be in charge of the Rangers again in due time.” Fernando filters it down further. He continues, explaining it to Jeanette, “The US Government disbanded the Rescue Rangers and handed over the reins to the Danger Rangers. The Acorn Café has been offered to me and is currently floating in escrow until I return from Japan. Chip is in jail for collaboration of a terrorist act which several were killed in tying to target Hondo and I. He is under arrest and awaiting trail which will end in execution of a death sentence.”
 
Gadget turns to Jeanette and nods. She then throws in addition, “Former, as I have started divorce proceedings against him and am currently separated from him in all legal and familiar matters the marriage had put on me.” She pauses for a second, “Chip was abusive and forcibly demanding, forcing me to take drugs straight and in combination: Alcohol, Valium, Cocaine, Heroin, PCP-Angel Dust, Crystal Meth, High Ball (Cocaine and PCP), Snow Ball (Cocaine and Heroin), and who knows what else. And while he had me high on who knows what, he had various ‘friends’ come over and have sex with me – sex with two, three or more friends at the same time. If there is any chance that Chip escapes the justice system here in Japan, I will have him and his associates arrested in America for what they had done to me.”
 
Fernando throws in, “Chip began doing the same thing to my wife. Now – I want you to think about it – seriously think about it. If you would have married me instead of Tammy, it would be you that he would target and act upon until he got you in a drug induced phase of questionable existence and start forcing you to take such actions that is not you or your own choosing because you are no longer in charge of your mental faculties but the drugs are and you would be having sex with multiple guys of questionable reputations and lifestyles. And you dare question me about having sex with Gadget? What I done to her was to give her a bio pill to cleanse her body out and restore it to the pristine condition it was before she met the Rangers and then removed the computer chip from her head. I then took her into my wing to be my second and secretary like I had with you. In that if you dare think I am having sex with her that is on you. You remember what we did as my second, secretary and assistant, and you remember that in a close as we were then, we never crossed that line. Now Gadget is my second, secretary and assistant and we have not crossed that line. And if we do, that is our prerogative. If you want to join in when we do, you’re welcomed to join us.”
 
Gadget throws in, “Thanks to Chip, I can never trust another man again, except for Fernando. Everything Chip and his friends did to me, Fernando had undone. If I ever get into a situation where I would have sex with Fernando, I’m going to give everything I have to offer as a woman to let him take from me what he wants. But he wants to keep our relationship as professional as possible and there will be lines for us not to cross. So I respect him, his decisions, and his actions to what helping me and giving me a second chance in life. No other man would do that for me.”
 
Fernando finally throws in, “Yet Misao is throwing innuendoes and accusations of things I did to her? And she wants to get Chip released from jail from the crimes he did over here, crimes where many people got hurt and killed? How about you ask her what she is doing around our new base. How about you take back the Time Travelling equipment from her that I gave to you as my second because it is going to a new second, she over extended her time in barrowing the equipment and it is time to get it back. And if you do not get it back, I will. You got 96 hours in doing this, and that is generous in offering. Because the truth is this – if Chip would have gotten you, drugged and had you as a controlled drug addicted sex puppet, you would never bother Misao about getting back the Time Travelling equipment and it would be her forever. Therefore, there is that connection of having Chip eliminating you like he did with Gadget and Tammy with Misao profiting from his actions. I would not be surprised if she had some sort of leading role in this as Chip is not that smart.”  
 
Gadget turns to Fernando, “Fernando, I need to see Chip and tell him what is going on with our divorce. And if he disagrees with any of these findings, I will divorce him ‘In Absentia’ for the abuse he did to me. Could you come with me? Even though he is behind bars, I do not trust him and might do something to me.”
 
“Sure, I’ll go with you, but first, let’s take a couple minutes to see who is here before we go.” Fernando tells her.
 
“Thanks...” Gadget tells him.
 
They go off arm in arm into the crowd.
 
Jeanette says to herself, “If we were married, Fernando, Chip would never had gone as far with me as he did with Tammy. Tammy had a childhood crush on him, I never liked the man, only respected him for the seat of power he held.”
 
But Jeanette does not realize how close he was on acting next on her with a drugged drink and hypnotic suggestions. If it were not for this mission and his subsequent arrest in Japan, he would have taken such plans against Jeanette in a matter of days at the Acorn Café. She thinks she is capable but under the circumstances it is doubtful that she would be able to deal with it without being burned in the process.
 
Fernando and Gadget run into the high school girls.
 
“Hello Mister G.” The girls approach him.
 
“Hello again, ladies.” Fernando turns to them. He adds, “Been introducing yourselves to the others?”
 
“We have!” Naomi says for the group.
 
“Good to hear.” Fernando tells her.
 
“I see you are back with the blonde we saw you earlier. Who’s the Redhead you spent time with?” Hiromi points out.
 
“Well, let me tell you the following, in case you missed it before – this is Gadget Hackwrench. She was with the Rescue Rangers and is now with me as my secretary since the organization was disbanded. As for the Redhead – that is Jeanette Miller, my former Rescue Partner and if you ever heard of them – member of the Chipettes.” Fernando explains.
 
“That’s Jeanette Miller of the Chipettes?” Naru asks.
 
“Believe it or not, she is.” Fernando tells them. He then turn the questioning on them, “Met anyone interesting?”
 
Kitsume answers as she gestures a hidden pointing finger, “That guy over there, claims to an ambassador for some South American Nation. But when asked, he changes which nation he is from.”
 
“I see.” Fernando replies. He then adds, “I’ll alert Palace Security about him. Unfortunately I have to take a phone call but I should be back in 30 or so minutes.”
 
“See you then!” Several of the girls tell them.
 
Fernando and Gadget make their way to the Dungeon Prison with her being one step on the staircase behind him. Along the way, Gadget has stopped them from proceeding and gave Fernando a more than needed intimate kiss along with a tight embracing hug, almost pressing her body against his.
 
In the darkness of the stairway to the dungeon prison, Fernando asks, “I have a feeling you want to do it again...”
 
“I would love to, as my stress levels have gone through the roof right now.” Gadget tells him, but she adds, “But that would be the third time we would do it and I think a male can only take so much.”
 
“Being stronger and healthier than most males, we could do it as often as you like, all day even.” Fernando tells her, adding, “Only if we allow ourselves to do it and we have the time to be alone to do it in.”
 
Gadget seems to nod as she bites on her lower lip. She then leans against him, “I’m sorry if I asked you before, but if things go wrong between you and Tammy, would you, could you, marry me? I’ll do my best to be the best wife to you.”
 
He looks at her and nods but while saying, “Let’s see what happens.”
 
Gadget holds him tighter and gives him one more quick kiss. She then pushes off to separate herself from him, requesting, “To get Chip angry, I might want to ‘play with you’ for a while and show him how much more of a man you are compared to him.”  
 
“Play with me?” Fernando asks.
 
“Well, yeah... like get on my knees and give you a blowjob like the last time, and hot dog you for a while but to make it look like if you were #$@!ing me from behind while you grab and massage my breasts.” She tells him.
 
“Oh... OK. Let’s see what happens then.” Fernando replies.
 
Gadget moves her arms to his neck, holding him tightly while repeatedly saying in rapid secession “I Love You! I Love You! I Love You!”
 
It takes a minute for Gadget to calm down.
 
“Gadget, if you don’t mind, I prefer that anything does not happen but that is an option to consider. OK?” He says and asks.
 
Gadget nods before saying “OK.”
 
“Then let’s go.” He says.
 
Together they walk the remaining few dozen yards/meters to the jail cells, only one is occupied. Fernando stands by the blind area to the cell  It’s lone occupant was lying on the slab of a bed. Gadget walks up to the door and knocks on it to get his attention. The occupant turns to face the door.
 
“Gadget?” The occupant says.
 
“It is me, Chip.” Gadget says to him.
 
Chip gets up from his bed and trudges over to the cell door. He extends an arm out between the bars but fail to get Gadget. Gadget managed to step back far enough as for Chip to not be able to grab her. He calls to her loudly and desperately, “GADGET!”
 
“Don’t you ‘Gadget’ me! I’m just here to tell you that divorce proceedings are going through. We will no longer be married soon enough. Lawyers will be coming to you to sign papers to finalize the divorce. If you do not sign them, then I will take action to divorce you in Abstenia for the abuse and crimes you did to me. But to do not worry. There are rumors about Misao trying to get you out. If she succeeds, I do not want to ever see you again.” Gadget tells him before signaling to the hallway.
 
Fernando steps into view again.
 
“You...” Chip growls at him.
 
“If Misao manages you get you out, you will be extradited to the US and face charge there as well, from drug dealing, prostitution, extortion, money laundering, misappropriation of funds, falsifying documentations, and the list goes on. The US government has disbanded the Rangers and gave Ranger Headquarters to the Danger Rangers. Even the café was sold on auction to Fat Cat of all people. You have nothing to go back to. And since you took my wife and poisoned her, I’m taking yours.” Fernando tells him.
 
Chip reaches out to grab Fernando, “Oooo... If I was out there, I would beat your ass into a pulp!”
 
“Oh really?” Fernando says, before a double bright flash signifies that Fernando has teleported himself into Chip’s cell. “Here I am.”
 
Chip steps away from the doorway and towards Fernando. He takes a wild swing to hit Fernando with, it is easily blocked and caught, his arm twisted into an uncomfortable position. He then lets loose with a straight left punch to Chip’s. Chips face went from anger to shock, awe and fear, knowing that he had #$@!ed up. Fernando’s fist makes contact with his cheek bone and lower eye socket. It is followed with a judo throw to the cell wall behind them. Chip’s body impacts the wall with a sickening “Thud!” Fernando sends a few more fists to Chip’s face and body. He then steps back to inspect his handiwork. Chip was still conscious though in pain and beaten.
 
“If I ever see you outside this door as a free man, I will do worst to you than I did here and now. I will kill you.” Fernando tells him before teleporting out of Chip’s cell and behind Gadget. He reaches around her and starts massaging her breasts for Chip to see. “You drugged, poisoned, manhandled and raped my wife. You used her for your own gains and revenge against me. You are not man enough to have come to me in person to deal with me like a real man because I would have beaten you like I did here and now. You left me no choice but to take your wife in her place.”
 
Gadget leans back against Fernando to allow him to better grasp her breasts.
 
“If you want to #$@! me here and now, you can. In fact I would want you too.” Gadget says loud enough for Chip to hear.
 
Chip manages to crawl to the bars of his cage, hauling himself to get up. He sends his arm through the bars, yelling, “NO! GADGET IS MY WIFE!”
 
“You should have thought about that when you were drugging and screwing Tammy!” Gadget throws back at him.
 
“You should have thought about that while you drugging, beating, raping and prostituting Gadget.” Fernando tells him loud and firmly.
 
“When our divorce is done, Fernando and I are getting married.” Gadget tells him.
 
“You Can’t Do That!” Chip cries out.
 
“Thanks to you, Tammy and our baby are dead. You gave her the drugs, she used them and she crashed her car killing them both. If you manage to escape this prison, there is another waiting for you America with Murder, Double Homicide, Rape, Abuse, Extortion, Prostitution, Drug Deal, Drug Possession, Money Laundering, Misappropriation of Funds and several more charges. Your American Citizenship has been revoked, so you are now Persona Non Grata. No place on this earth will you be welcomed. And if you manage to walk out of this jail, you will be put in chains and dragged to the US to face those charges. That is if you manage to get on the plane to take you home alive. Or if that plane manages to land on US Soil.” Fernando tells him.
 
Gadget steps away from Fernando and looks at him in shock and awe at his statement. He looks at her back, nodding without saying a word she gets down on her knees and opens his pants, pulling out his semi hard male organ from within. It hardens and lengthens within her grasp. She eyes it like a hungry child would eye a hotdog set with their toppings, giving her lips a wetting lick with her lips before she kisses it. She kisses it several more times along its length before putting its large head into her mouth. She bobs her head up and down as she gives him the best blow job she could give him, taking about a third of his length into her mouth. Either way it felt good to him in stimulation and satisfaction that her ‘no good’ husband could not do anything to stop what was going on but just watch.
 
Fernando continues as Gadget sucked on his mighty shaft, “You killed Tammy, and you killed Gadget through you taking actions on them to prove that you were a better man than everyone else. Shit... Even this Time Recreated Gadget says your penis and those guys you tried to sell her too are only 3 inches long. You can’t be a man with such a teenie peenie. No wonder you are so messed up in trying to prove yourself – you have no manhood, no honor, no conviction as a man to be a man. You are a nobody, you never took responsibility for anything unless there was a reward in it. You never did anything unless you could take credit, even it if is from somebody else’s work. How many times Gadget did the rescue which you took credit of? The Second mission in Italy – you were in the hospital in an LSD Induced Coma, yet when at the UN, you tried to take credit for Gadget and Tammy’s hard work. On top of that, you were giving Former Captain Now Admiral Ready orders to justify your comfort for the first mission in Italy and this mission to Japan. Now Admiral Ready is in the brig of his own ship, stripped of his rank because of you. When are you going to learn, you are a nobody in this world. Nothing of worth noticing, the power you think you have over others is imaginary. You are not worth the rope they are going to hang you with. Lastly, you killed my daughter – I will be the one that pulls on the lever that drops you to hang from the hangman’s noose. But if by some miracle you get released from this jail as a free man, justice will be served at the Palace Gates. So welcome to the beginning of your end.”
 
Fernando then taps Gadget on the shoulder. She slowly pulls off his dick and looks at him.
 
“When I Get Out Here, I’m Going After You, FERNANDO!” Chip yells at him.
 
Fernando helps Gadget back onto her feet and fixes himself up before closing up his pants. It only takes a few seconds to do, before he steps in front of Gadget.
 
“If you get out, as slim of a chance that would be, what makes you think you will live long enough to get me? Even if I do not kill out outside the gates of this palace, you would not be able to get back to America as your citizenship has been revoked, you would not be able to get back to Ranger Headquarters or the Acorn Cafe as the Danger Rangers now own it. There is nothing you can do but accept your fate for the actions you dare had taken – for what? A stupid award? A piece of paper and a medal on your chest to make you look good? A check in your pocket for you to spend on crap, gambling debts and drugs? You would be lucky to leave this country, you will be stuck here being one of the homeless. So go #$@! yourself – little man!” Fernando tells him.
 
Fernando then turns to Gadget, “Let’s go. They are waiting for us upstairs. Maybe later tonight we can go to a hotel room and practice making babies until the sunrises.”
 
Gadget giggles and says out loud to be heard, “Anytime you want to practice making babies with me, just say so. I’ll gladly drop my panties for you!”
 
Together they walked down the hall arm in arm and to the stairs. Fernando lets Gadget go up the first couple steps before he gently pulls on her arm, making her turn around. He looks up at her.
 
“Before you say, I’ll say first – thank you.” Fernando tells her.
 
“Thank you for what?” Gadget asks.
 
“I would say thank you for the blow job, and for the sex earlier but that is not it. Not entirely. Thank you for making me feel like a man again, if you can understand that.” He tells her.
 
“I think I understand, because I feel the same way – you making me feel like a woman again on top of restoring me to what I was by removing that chip in my head and removing the poisons that asshole made me take. I mean, being held again, being kissed with some meaning behind it, being able to have sex and enjoy the physical and emotional connections that goes with it – sure, we’re just #$@!ing like some horny teenagers but when you are doing me lovely, I feel  something there between us, something I did not felt with Chip or any of the multiple partners he made me had sex with. And it is not just your size, even though that is another matter within itself, but when we had #$@!ed most of the day today, it felt like, well, Uhm... it felt like it is supposed to feel like when a couple are in love!” Gadget rambles on with her little rant.
 
“Well, Gadget. I do not know why that is, but I do care about you and I wish you the best. Yeah, sure, you had been a pain in my ass for so long, but you never been destructive in your demands – Chip has. Chip had given me faulty equipment, and Jeanette and I almost died from it when it failed on us during a mission. Chip has put us into dangerous situations where we were almost killed. We had lost rescue equipment because of him, it is only by the skin of our teeth that we not only got out with our tails intact but we also completed the mission. He would be angry at us, blame us for the equipment that was lost, but when there was some award coming that were us, he would intercept it and change it around to have his name on it and take what reward money that was for us as for him claiming that it is for the organization. You would never had done that to us, he did. So in that, knowing that you care and he never did, I care about you.” Fernando tells her.
 
“Fernando,” Gadget begins to ask, “How would you feel if I told you that I love you? Because I do.”
 
“Though I may never say it, I try to show those words in what meaning and level they need to be in with you and the others. So, I may never say it again, I do love you. So let’s leave it at that and what happens between us must remain between us because there are many out there that are willing to interfere with what we have or even take action to destroy it. Anyone doing that, anyone trying to hurt you, I will hurt back with a force double of what they tried to do to you, to us.”  
 
Gadget just looks at him for a moment about lean over and kiss him until a voice breaks their private silence.
 
“My, Gadget, you are a married woman...” an all too familiar voice belonging to her sister Widget says behind them. She was with her husband Charles.
 
“Widget, I am no longer married to that poor excuse of a man who had abused me all these many years. He is aware of that as I have told him and given his lawyers my divorce papers stating abuse and sexual depravity as reasons for the divorce.” Gadget tells her.
 
“Fernando... how would Tammy feel if she found out about you and Gadget?” Charles said.
 
“First of all, Charles, my private life with who I have it with is my private life. And it will remain private. Second of all, Tammy abandoned me and declared our married absolved as per Roman Catholic Rule. In that she has went to Italy to absolve our marriage at the church we were married in with a complaint to the church. So by her own actions, I am no longer married to Tammy anymore. And third, Gadget is under my wing for her protection and she works for me as my secretary, like Dale is under your protective wing and works for you as an agent in training. Gadget is valuable to me in that she can do things I cannot, get information for me while I am busy with something else and my second set of eyes and ears for things I cannot see or hear. She has yet to fail me and has done an excellent job in doing what she does for me. I will give her what things she needs and what money she deserves as a paycheck for working for me. Now, I hope you are not here to see that poor excuse of man rotting in his jail cell.” Fernando tells him.
 
“I need to see how he is treated.” Charles simply says.
 
“I’m going to tell you this – He is being treated just fine. His abuse, his cuts and bruises are from me as he continues to spew crap out of his mouth about ‘taking care of me’ and ‘making sure I will pay for his problems.’ So I went into his cell and challenged him to hit me. He took a swing at me, and after he realizes his mistake, I wailed on his ass. If this would have happened outside as him being a free man, I would have bounced his head off a building and cracked it open like a coconut.” Fernando explains. He continues, “I swear Charles – what the #$@! I did to him? He went after me, he manipulated my wife and gave her drugs and started using her like he was abusing Gadget. I do not care about Tammy at this point, I do care about our daughter. That is a place no man is to get in between – a father and his daughter.”
 
“I still need to see him.” Charles says.
 
“Then go ahead.” Fernando tells him, pointing the direction where Chip would be.
 
Charles goes ahead to see Chip, Widget follows him but stops at Gadget, telling her, “If I knew what was going on between you and Chip, I would have helped you a long time ago.”
 
Gadget tells her, “You say that now because you know now. Look, not even Dale or Monty did anything to help me because they did not know. And it is because Chip made sure that they did not know, nobody knew. Nobody knew except those he wanted to know and it was those he had forced me to have sex with – 3, 4, 5, as many as 10 men and lesbians at the same time. Fernando just saved me from all that and started me on a long road to recovery. So do not take it bad against him. I would probably selling my ass for drugs right now because of what Chip did to me If Fernando did not come along to get me out of that hell hole.”
 
Widget leans over to Gadget and hugs her for the moment.
 
“I’ll be there for you, sis. Let me know when you need me.” Widget tells her before letting her go. She then silently steps away from Gadget and heads to the hallway to be with her husband Charles.
 
Fernando signals to Gadget to follow them to listen on what is being said. Chip was laying it on thick to Charles.
 
“Charles, you got to help me. They are abusing me here. Look at my face, the cuts, they are beating me! I’m innocent, I tell you, Innocent! I did nothing wrong! Nothing! You got to help me get out of here!” Chip pleads with Charles.
 
“You are facing serious charges: collusion with terrorists and organized crime, planning an execution of an individual, planning of using an explosive device in a murder plot, destruction of property totaling 100-Billion Yen ($100-Million USD), death of several innocent individuals, serious injury of many other innocent individuals, and that is just the beginning of the charges. Those are some serious charges.” Charles says to him.
 
“They promised me that the bomb planted in the car would have only killed Fernando!” Chip says out loud.
 
Fernando slowly steps out of the shadows silently with Gadget behind him. He stands there in silence.
 
Charles tells him, “There would have been a chance that Gadget would have been with him when that bomb went off, killing her too.”
 
“So? That bitch deserves worst for turning on me!” Chip spews out.
 
“That bitch was your wife and my sister!” Widget yells at him.
 
“Is that so...?” Fernando says to them. “You did not cared if Gadget would have been killed with me? Gadget never turned on you, she was faithful and loyal to you until after you were arrested. Then she found out the truth of what you did and why you did it. It is then that she turned to me for some help. And I am giving her that help as a real man should. Not the abuse that you gave her over the many years you two were married. But that’s beside the point. Hondo and his wife was driving my car at the time as they barrowed it. The bomb would have killed them, not me. But you do not seem to care. So maybe I should go get Hondo and his wife Val here and now and open the jail cell for him to have a private talk to you with his fists – knowing that you targeted him and his wife as you had targeted me with Gadget, Tammy, Jeanette or any of my daughters I would have been with. You did this to your self – Chip. No one on the face of this earth did all this but you. You planned it, you paid for it, you had it done – several killed, many hurt and the destruction of two department stores in the area – all your fault even though you had others do it for you. Don’t worry, they were all caught too and already faced the judge and the executioner. It is a matter of dealing with you next – legally.”
 
Silence hung about the room like a bad smell.
 
Fernando takes Gadget by the arm, “Charles, Widget, I’ll see you both upstairs.
 
“See you ‘Nando!’ Charles says before watching them leave. He then turns to Chip, “I’ll see about maybe getting you a lawyer for you to admit to your crimes and get life in prison so you won’t be executed. But if you try to fight this, you will lose and they will hang you. You know – The Japanese hang people for their crimes involving the death penalty, they do not use lethal injection, the gas chamber or the electric chair.”
 
“But I’m innocent! INNOCENT!!!” Chip yells at him.

Back at the party in the grand ball room Fernando and Gadget moved from person to person, making small talk with them. Fernando does not like making small talk with anyone but it is something he has to do in order to keep up appearances. Along the way he meets up with his girls and interacts with them for a while. Meanwhile, he stays away from Misao and Jeanette. Eventually he goes to his table and sits down. Gadget takes the seat next to him.
 
“You OK?” Gadget asks.
 
“I’m just tired.” Fernando says as he looks down at the table. He then looks up to her. “I’m not tired because of what we did during the day. I’m tired from having too much on my mind and the stress of it all.”
 
“Oh.” Gadget replies. She adds, “I can understand. Thinking about Chip gets me stressed out and tired too, so I try not to.” She tries to smile at him.
 
“Thank you.” He says to her.
 
“Well, anytime you want to do it to cut the edge off the stress, I’m there for you.” She tells him.
 
“Can I ask you a very personal question?” He asks.
 
“You can ask me anything.” She replies.
 
“Well, being blunt about it, if it were possible to do it as often as you like, how often would you want to do it?” He asks.
 
“If it were all possible, I would like to do it as often as possible. Like you promised me in the hotel room, all weekend long, like a pair of newlyweds on their honeymoon.” She explains.
 
Fernando nods before telling her, “If we are lucky, you might get your wish on more than one occasion during this mission. But as you know, we need to keep our relationship a secret from everyone else.”
 
“I know.” She replies.
 
“Thanks. For everything so far.” He then says.
 
“Thank you for saving my life.” She replies back.
 
They sit there for a while before Gadget slowly gets up, “I need to go to the little girl’s room.”
 
“Go ahead. I’ll be right here waiting for you.” Fernando replies.
 
Gadget just smiles before walking away. Fernando sits alone at the table for the moment before somebody takes the seats across from him. He looks up at them.
 
“Misao, Jeanette, to what I owe this displeasure?” He tells then in question.
 
“There you go again with the hostility.” Misao begins.
 
“If you were here on a friendly or business note, things would be different. But instead you want impose your will and make demands on top of stating that outside space alien is of earth because they were here for some 10,000 years. When are you going to accept that they are not of earth, not part of the planet’s DNA tree, and no matter how long they stay here, will never be part of Earth? The DNA might be compatible to those of us on Earth but you are not part of Earth. Lastly, Jeanette has asked for you to return the Time Travel equipment and you refuse with what various excuses you threw at her. Well, take this as a warning – you have 24 hours to return the equipment before it self-destructs and leaves you stranded wherever you maybe. I do not care about who you are ‘saving’ or where you are, or when you are, you be left stranded. If you are here in Japan in current time, you will be stranded when you try to use it. So 24 hours. Not one minute more.” He tells her.
 
“You’re bluffing.” Misao tells him.
 
“I do not bluff.” He tells her. He then throws at her, “Since you came over, what do you want this time?”
 
She just scowls at him for the moment. She has a lot say and even ask but with his challenge to ‘her authority,’ she goes on the defensive. “So you’re having an extramarital affair with that blonde mouse... what’s her name, Oh yes, Gadget Hackwrench.”
 
“My personal life and affairs thereof are not of your business unless they involve you. I also told you that because of Charles Maplewood, who you know as Chip, drugged and poisoned my wife Tammy, involving her in a sexual affair while I was away on a mission long before this mission started. Secondly, with help from the Emperor, I had Gadget go through the various medical treatments to deal with the various health issues she had through Chip’s abuse. She is extremely grateful for getting the help she needed. As many times as she asked you for help, you did nothing for her. So if Gadget is eternally grateful and happy in me giving her the medical care she needed is having an affair, then I’m having an affair with her. I’m having a wonderful time of taking her clothes off and check her naked body laid out on the examination table in checking her vital signs and progress of healing.” He tells her.
 
“Wait – what medical treatments?” Jeanette asks.
 
“Like he recently did to Tammy, Chip has been drugging and poisoning Gadget with various drugs and chemical and pimped her out as a sex toy to various clients for almost 10 years. She is currently under my medical care to remove the build-up of drugs and poisons from her body. If you do not believe me, you can ask the Emperor himself as he is allowing me to use his personal facilities here to give her the treatment to clean her body out. Currently 20 percent of the years of chemical build-up in her body has been removed. It is going to take at least a year before she is totally clean, but Gadget is saying that she is already feeling better from what little treatment I had already given her.” Fernando explains.
 
“That is a load of crock.” Misao throws at him.
 
“Go ask the Emperor if you do not believe me.” Fernando tells her, throwing in, “You say that you have his ear.”
 
“HMPH!” Misao reacts.
 
“There you go again, Misao. You want favors but you burn my trust and respect. And you wonder why I refuse to work with you. So let me put it point blank to you, you want something from me, you need to give me something first. And if we negotiate a deal and you burn me on that deal, you are going to get burned as well.” He tells her. He then throws in, “Let’s cut to the chase – What the f-eh you want?”
 
“You have no interest in helping me and my cause, let alone in helping getting Chip released.” Misao puts out on the table.
 
“First off, Chip committed an act of terrorism which cause the harm and death of tens of people and over a billion Yen in property damage in trying to get me killed. And knowing that Gadget would have been with me, she would have been killed with me. I am not the one pressing charges, it is the Japanese Magistrate that is pressing charges against him. But for argument’s sake, if you manage get him released, he will be facing numerous changes in the United States ranging from misappropriation of funds, money laundering, drug dealing, promoting prostitution, rape, unlawful imprisonment, manipulation of military services, impersonation of a military officer, and who know what other charges are listed. He is facing a life sentence whether he faces a judge here or a judge in America. Then he has to face me, and I won’t be so merciful.”  Fernando explains to her. He then throws at her, “Now, about your cause?”
 
“You will not help because it involves the Lantean people, which you say is not of this world.” Misao tells him.
 
“I am willing to help any group from or not from this world as needed. I am not going to help anyone who proclaims that they are the master, the end all and be all, race of Earth will not be getting anything from me. With that said, I know Jeanette spoke to you about what I found in South America, and yet you scoffed at the findings. So, if you refute the findings, and won’t even discuss them with me, why should I help you? Groups out there are willing to kill your kind with genetic targeting poisons and all you care is about bringing more Lanteans to this world. Let me tell you this – with that poison floating around, you will be bringing them to their deaths. I already gave Jeanette the details, you are ignoring it. So any that you bring who get killed, their deaths will be on their hands. I already did my job in finding it, my government is out there cleaning up the mess, but there is a large amount of the poison unaccounted for. So beware.” Fernando tells her.

Back at Maria’s B&B...
 
A shadowy figure roams about the block where Maria’s B&B resides. Hiding in the shadows, it tests the doors of darken buildings, finding most of them locked. At the address of 2-29-4 Takinoi, Funabashi, most of the doors were locked. Most except for one. The door is opened and the figure steps inside, listening carefully to see if there is anybody home. Instead they find the place empty. Little was searched through except for when they reached the kitchen and dining room. The shelves and refrigerator was looked through at first before various items was taken. A couple cans of soda, some fruit and a couple canisters of leftovers before they make their way back to their point of entry, and exit as they came in, closing the doors from which they opened.

[Roll Back 30 minutes from Charles Post…]
 
Misao scoffs at Fernando’s statement.
 
“Genetic poisons? Elimination of the Lantean Race? There’s billions of us on several planets and two galaxies. There is no way anyone is going to invoke genocide against us.” Misao squawked like a chicken that laid its first egg.
 
“How many millions Lanteans are there on Earth? 4Million? 5Million? I will dare say over 35million Lanteans, Half Lanteans, Quarter Lanteans, and so on for at least 5 mixed generations. Each and every one of them will die when exposed to that poison because it is very selective to a certain gene nucleotide sequence that only Lanteans have. And that poison will linger in the air for when more Lanteans that arrive, they will get sick and die too. But you do not want to listen to that. You do not care that there are certain Earth Factions who would want to perform such a genetic cleansing to eliminate such extraterrestrial scum if given the opportunities. Unfortunately due to your interference, more than 80% of Japan, 65% of Korea and more than 55% of China have that Lantean gene even if they are not direct descendants of Lanteans. Releasing that poison will kill billions within 5000 miles from this very spot. And I’m not counting those outside of this Oriental Asia due to Asian Hun Mice Global Disporia. So if you think I do not care, go look in the mirror as ask yourself that question. Then ask yourself how much of your DNA Make up is Lantean, and would that poison effect you. I’m trying to stop a global catastrophe, what are you trying to do? Get a known guilty terrorist, murderer, embezzler, glory hound and wife abuser released while bringing in more illegal space aliens onto this planet of Lantean Doom.” Fernando tells her.
 
“None of this is true. Where is your proof?” Misao throws at him.
 
Gadget returns with Fernando’s drink, putting it on the table next to him and stands beside and behind him on his right. Misao and Jeanette do not see the emperor coming up behind them. Misao looks at Gadget and her actions.
 
“Looks like you got her trained already.” Misao throws at Fernando.
 
A voice answers for Fernando behind them, “It is not that he has her trained. It is she who knows her place as a woman around her man and as his secretary.”
 
Jeanette and Misao turn around to see who it was. Emperor Akihito was standing behind them. The Emperor looks down at Misao.
 
“Gadget honors our traditions and is not a leader but a follower under Fernando and thus knows her place to him. Also, her seat where she sat before would have placed her next to you, and thus she does not want to sit next to you. That says more than words can say.”  Emperor Akihito tells her.
 
“HMPH...” Misao react, crossing her arms under her breasts.
 
Fernando interjects, “Emperor, sir... I have been trying to explain to Ms. Sakimori about Project Dragon’s Breathe and its implied ramifications but she is in total disbelief on the matter.”
 
“Oh really.” Emperor Akihito replies. He leans over onto the table, putting his fists on it knuckles down to support himself momentarily. He then points at Misao, “If Fernando disclosed any information about any project or operation, take note in the truth and validity on that information. Though he is an agent for American government, he is allowed to share information with us and we share information with him. It is both an honor and respect that we share with each other. Now, as for Project Dragon’s Fiery Breathe, you better believe that the Lantean people and those of us who are mixed with Lantean genes are threatened by what he has found and all parties involved are working on a possible cure before the threat becomes real. In fact anyone who is of the Maus Genome is in possible danger to this threat. If you are going to believe that there is no threat to us, then perhaps I should look for somebody to take your place and Envoy to the Lantean People on Earth. Do I make myself clear?”
 
“Crystal, sir.” Misao says.
 
Emperor Akihito then follows up, “This information is confidential. I find it printed on any news media – dead tree or digital on any outlet public or private, you will be terminated as Envoy to the Lantean People and criminal charges will be applied to you as well. Do I make myself clear?”
 
“Crystal, sir.” Misao says.
 
Emperor Akihito turns to Fernando, “Would you like from the refreshment brought over to you? Or access to your room to follow up with your electronic communiqué?”
 
“Thank you, sir, but I will serve myself and my secretary as needed.” Fernando tells him.
 
“Alright then. If you need anything, let me know.” Emperor Akihito tells Fernando.
 
“Again, thank you sir.” Fernando tells him.
 
Emperor Akihito nods before he walks away. As soon as he is interacting with his other guests, Fernando makes his statement to get Misao’s attention.
 
“Since you do not believe me, then do you believe your Emperor? I should hope so.” Fernando tells Misao.
 
“There is something both of you are not telling me.” Misao growls at him.
 
“There is one thing we are not telling you, which I will say right now. This discovery would not have happened if Chip did not call my agency to force me to take this mission. But he did it to get me out of the way and to get at Tammy so he can pump her full of drugs and sexually exploit her while she was high on some chemical, not to go out to save the world.” Fernando tells her.
 
“So if Chip got your lazy ass to get up and work for your agency in which this discovery was made, then he is a hero – why is he arrested?” Misao complains.
 
“Timing and intent.” Fernando begins to tell her. He adds, “Timing: This, Chip calling my agency, happened over a year ago. The discovery happened six months later. That does not make him a hero because I did my job and made the discovery, not him. He only forced my hand to take action sooner than expected. My action and discovery was not by the result of his calling of my agency to force me into a mission. He called my agency to get me out of my house to get access to my wife – which brings up number 2: Intent. His intent was to get me out of my house to get access to my wife and then manipulate her into taking drugs and sexually exploit her while she is high on the chemicals he put in her. He did not care about me or the discovery I made, or else he would have taken action to get some kind of reward for my actions. Instead, he took, misused and abused my wife during my absence. 3: Because of 1 and 2, does not excuse him from the actions he took against me that got others hurt and killed and cause major property damage in a major shopping area of Downtown Tokyo. He was never a hero by statement or action and he took a villainous action of terrorism to try to take down a real hero whether that hero was me or somebody else. So do not think that Chip has any positive value in what he did against me because his actions were selfish and destructive to all those involved. 4: My lazy ass? I was in between missions on a well deserved vacation when he interfered with it. I was not to be called on for the next mission for another three months. His interference took me away from my vacation, forcing me to work without rest. That is on top of the Rescue Ranger responsibilities that I do for him nearly 24/7 without rest or pay. So who are you calling lazy?”
 
Misao refuses to say anything at this point. She has not thing to support her points and has lost her argument with him.
 
Fernando takes his drink Gadget brought him and takes all in one swig. He gets up.
 
“Since I am not going to get any peace here, I’m going to my private room and do some work there.” Fernando tells Misao and Jeanette.
 
“Oh sure. You’re going to take your little secretary and have your way with her.” Misao throws out.
 
“My personal room in the palace is an office space, not a bedroom. It has various cameras inside to track my movements and actions I do while I am there. So unless I want my boss or the Emperor to see that Gadget as my secretary and I are doing it like they do it on the Discovery Channel, nothing other than a professional demeanor and work will be captured on those cameras.” Fernando tells her. He throws in, “Just because nobody is doing you the favor of loving you, does not mean that I'm denied from such respect and affections from my friends and family. Gadget is my secretary, but she is also a friend, and in that certain lines will not be crossed between us. But I will give her respect, love and affection at the levels called for by our relationship as she returns it to me in our relationship. A relationship that neither you or Jeanette are part of.”
 
Fernando then gets up, and looks at them both, “By the time I come back, this table better be empty as it is assigned to me and my guests. You Misao are not my guest, though Jeanette maybe depending on her behavior here. So long for now.” He then steps over to Gadget and puts his arm into hers before walking away, saying out loud enough to be heard, “Come on, we got work to do in the office, but first I need something to eat and drink before we go.”
 
Together they go to the various snack areas and pick up a few things for him to eat and drink, wolfing them down then and there as he picks them. He then starts to take Gadget out of the ballroom.
 
“Are we going to this office you told Misao and Jeanette about?” Gadget asks.
 
“We will be going there, but it is not an office, though I do have a private office I can use here. It is more like a private suite with a bedroom, shower and a small kitchen. It is part of the private office but as a separate room accessible from the office. It’s hard to explain.” He tries to explain to her.
 
“Oh. I understand.” Gadget says as they continue to walk out of the ballroom. She then adds, “You want some alone time with me?”  
 
“It’s more like I need some alone time away from them and to deal with the headache they just gave me.” He points out.
 
“I can help take the edge of things for you if you like.” She throws at him.
 
“As much as both of us might want that, sex cannot be the answer to every time our stress levels go through the roof.” He begins to tell her. He then pulls her closer to him, putting his arm around her waist, “But I would not mind the company of a lovely girl like you in the privacy of such a room.”
 
Gadget just smiles as they walk through the palace halls. They continue to walk down the fancy corridors and vaulted stair cases. After a while, though tracked by the palace security staff, Fernando and Gadget get to his private office. He gets to the door and puts his palm onto the palm reader, unlocking the door. Holding her by the waist, he guides her to go in first, closing and locking the door behind them after he follows her in. They had stepped into a large waiting area with a reception desk by the door. He walks to the door by the desk and opens it, letting Gadget to go in first. It’s a lone office with some comfortable leather chairs by the wall. On the walls either to the desk, opposite each others are two doors. One door is closet, the other door opens to a suite he spoke off. He opens the door to the suite. It is broken up into several areas including its own bathroom, hallway, living room/study/rest area, kitchenette area and bedroom.
 
Though Fernando walked to the bedroom and look out a window that is there, Gadget walked though the whole place, taking it all in.
 
“Wow... I could almost move in to live here!” She says out loud.
 
“It is only meant for work and living space for a few days. A month at the most with extensions of stay to be requested and approved by palace security. Furthermore, there is no privacy as there are hidden cameras everywhere and palace security can barge in at any time they want. They are even listening in with the hidden microphones. That is why we cannot get on this bed and start having sex like teenagers in heat, though we might want to.” He explains.
 
“I’m sure we could put on a show for them...” Gadget jokes as she steps up to him, taking his arm and leaning against him.
 
“Oh sure – we’ll probably end up on porn site: Squirrel and Mouse In Heat #$@! All Day...” He says.
 
“If I had to do a Porn Video for whatever the reason, I would want to do it with you.” Gadget points out.
 
“Maybe you will have your dream come true.” Fernando throws at her.
 
“What kind of Porn Video would you want to do?” She asks.
 
“I’m open to anything. What about you?” He says and asks.
 
“I would not mind doing a school girl and tutor/teacher porn video. You are, what, ten years older than me?” She says and asks.
 
“About 10 years older, if that.” He pauses for a second before adding ”You would cute as a school girl. Just have to make you look a bit younger as even though you are in your 20s, as is you would look like a high school senior or college freshman.”
 
“Calling me old?” Gadget says in protest.
 
“I could age reverse you to be a teenager of whatever age you would be comfortable with for the video. Of course your adult memories would be intact.”
 
“Oooo... That would be nice. To be a teen again.” She says stepping up to him. She takes both of his hands and looks up at him trying to look innocent, “I really do need help with my school work, mister...”
 
“Gadget. Please don’t do that.” He tells her.
 
“I’m just teasing you while in practice of the role.” She says to him.
 
“I told you before, I do not like to be teased like that. We are adults and we are on a mission. Despite all that, I will do for you as I would my own wife as you are a friend, employee, assistant and all those things that makes you important to me – all that needs to be rewarded. And rewarded you will be.” He tells her. He then adds after a second’s pause, “Look, I’m sorry. There’s a time to work and a time to play and I understand that you want to play. And I’m willing to play with you, but only when it is the time which we can play. Now is not that time, now I need you to be my secretary, and what have I told you about being my secretary?”
 
“’Secret’ is in ‘Secretary.’” She replies.
 
Fernando takes his hands from hers and puts them to her waist, drawing her closer to him until their bodies press against each other. He then kisses her on the forehead and nods before letting out a sigh.
 
“Correct.” He finally says to her.
 
“Can I ask a very personal question?” Gadget asks.
 
“You know you can ask anything. It’s the answer you might have problems with.” He tells her.
 
“Well then, who else knows that you’re a Time Traveler?  And how come you do not go back in Time to change things for the better? And whatever happened to that Time Machine Delorean?” She asks.
 
“Well, the Time Travelling Delorean was crushed at a junk yard as there was not much of it left after it was wrecked by you and Tamara. The Clean Up crew took 2 weeks picking up every small fragment that wreck created. As for those who know that I am a Time Traveler – it is an Open Secret, meaning it is public information but like UFOs and Flying Saucers, the governments and media deny that any of it is true. As for me going back in time to change events for the better – that is not possible. I can stop the interference of event manipulations by other Time Travellers but 2 things stop me from changing events myself. 1) there are certain events that cannot be changed at all. If an earthquake happens and it kills a friend, I cannot go back in time to save that friend because the earthquake itself is an event that cannot be changed. I can give out a warning but that is all I can do. And 2) if in changing that event, it becomes a worse outcome. Let’s say you go back in time and kill Adolf Hitler when he was a baby in order to try to prevent WWII and the Holocaust from ever happening. Who is to say that the one who replaces Adolf Hitler is worst than what he did? What if because of that change, Germany gets the atomic bomb before the USA and wins WWII? Instead of speaking English, we would end up speaking German and Japanese. That is why I will not change past events for a better good.”
 
“But can you go to the future to look at now as past history and then come back and do event changes that way?” She asks.
 
“No I cannot.” He says to her.
 
“Why not?” She asks.
 
“Like before, events cannot be changed for a better good. Getting into the science of Space Time, for every decision we make and take, there is created two universe constructs of 1) when we made and took the actions of that decision and 2) when we thought about the decision but did not made and did not take them. Each outcome creates a temporary universe and the one that remains permanent is the one we choose while the other fades into oblivion.” He explains to her.
 
Gadget looks at him highly confused and does not say a word. Fernando sighs before he explains further.
 
“OK. Here we are, alone in a private bedroom where we have a choice of having sex or not. It is that choice that is making two universes, and in deciding one choice over the other leads to future events happening or not. This causes one universe to continue onward while the other fades away into nothingness through the Order of Entropy. If I go into the future, I have to land on the right path of events to order to see history of such actions in order to go back and make a change of events. It is that change that will destroy the future and make a new one.” He explains.
 
“I think I understand.” She replies.
 
“Let me clarify with this example that affects us both.” He tells her. She nods before he continues, “Long ago I was married and she was killed in a crime against her. That is public knowledge and an event that can never be changed. But suppose I was able to go back and save her from the crime that happened. She lives, and in living we remain married. Through that I continue with my study and career as a medical doctor. In that I would remain with her and our close friends and family, and I would have never had met Jeanette and her family, nor would I have met you and the Rangers. Furthering it – I would never have become a Ranger and the history we share now would have never had happened. So you see – one event and one change to that event long ago would have destroyed what we have now.” He explains.
 
Gadget nods, looking up at him. Then she shyly says, “Fernando, do not take this badly but I’m glad that your wife was killed because if she hadn’t, we would have never met.”
 
“And now you want to be my wife...” Fernando says almost to himself.
 
“I do not know how good of a wife your wife was back then, but seeing how happy you made Tammy before she turned on you, if we were to marry after all this craziness is over, I would do my best to be a perfect wife to you.” She tells him.
 
“I bet you would. But I would warn you that I am not an easy man to deal with as a husband.” He replies.
 
“I’m not an easy woman to deal with as a wife either. I like my freedom and flying and tinkering about most of all.” She tells him.
 
“It is for those reasons I chose you to be my secretary. They are not the only reasons but they are some of the main reasons.” He tells her. He adds, “To be my wife you need to cook, clean, keep a neat house and take care of any kids we may have.”
 
“I do not think I can have kids.” Gadget says almost sadly.
 
“How so?” He asks.
 
“As often as Chip and I had sex, and as often as I was forced to have sex with others due to Chip’s demands, I never got pregnant. I never thought about it, really. I thought I was just lucky. But now in thinking about it, there might be something wrong with me. It seemed that I lost my cycle during that time.” She explains.
 
“That was then when you was poisoned. Who know if Chip was giving you birth control pills to keep you from getting pregnant during this time. Furthermore the drugs he was giving you can make you sterile while you are making them. Also, eating too much Tofu increases Estrogen in a female and can make her sterile because it freezes her cycle. One thing I know, Chip always ordered Chinese food heavy in Tofu and you ate of that which he gave you. Even that computer chip running in your head could have altered your hormone regulations and kept you sterile. But with the cleaning out and restoration of your body along with the removal of that computer chip, you should be able to have a normal cycle again, get pregnant and have kids.” He explains to her.
 
Gadget looks down between them and sighs.
 
He asks, “Something wrong?”
 
“Just thinking, in what we did and have been doing, I could end up pregnant with your child.” She explains.
 
Fernando kisses her forehead, “And you would be the best mother for it as well.” He pauses for second better telling her, “Mission crush or not, I do love you enough to take responsibilities for our actions but only if you take responsibility for our actions too. If you end up pregnant because of what we do, I’ll support you.”
 
Gadget looks up at him and smiles. She then buries her face into his suit as a tear runs down her cheek.
 
“Something wrong?” Fernando asks.
 
Gadget just shakes her head.
 
“Gadget...?” He calls to her. He repeats himself a couple more times before she looks up at him.
 
Her makeup is already ruined by her tears though she tries hard to hold back her tears..
 
He asks her, “What’s wrong, Gadget?”
 
“It’s what you said – supporting me if I got pregnant by you.” She begins. After taking a deep breath, she continues, “When Chip started his abuse on me, and making me take drugs, I thought I was pregnant because my cycle stopped. So I told him that I might be pregnant. He went on in anger and beaten me, hitting me in the lower stomach to try to get me to miscarriage.” She then begins to cry again.
 
Fernando holds her tightly for a while until she calms down. And calms down she does in a couple of minutes. She looks up at him.
 
“Fernando... you do not ever have to tell me that you love me, because you say it through your actions, not your words. I understand that now.” She tells him.
 
Fernando lets out a sigh, taking a second to think. He then replies, “It is something a man is supposed to do in respecting a woman. It is the minimum a man is supposed to for a woman. Well, that is what I was taught.”
 
He then turns around and leads her to the bathroom. Gadget is confused about this but follows him anyway. Once inside the bathroom, he turns her away from the mirror, and takes a wash cloth to give her “We got to redo your make up.”
 
She looks up at him, “Oh...”
 
He opens a couple of drawers to show various women’s makeup items, “You can use these if you don’t have anything.” He pauses for a second, “I’ll be outside.”
 
He begins to take a step towards the bathroom door but Gadget reaches over and takes his hand. He stops in mid step. A slight tug on his arm from her, he steps up to her.
 
“You do not have to leave.” She tells him, “You can stay if you like.”
 
“It would be faster if you do it alone and I’m not around to slow you down.” He explains to her.
 
She turns away to look into her purse she had placed on the counter for her own make up, while saying “There isn’t much you can do to slow me down.” She bends over slightly above the counter towards the mirror.
 
Fernando steps up behind her, bending slightly over her and reaches over in front of her with his hands, taking light hold of her breasts and massages them lightly. Gadget lets out a gasp and then a smile.
 
She giggles for a second before complaining, “I don’t mind you playing with my breasts but I need to put on my makeup first!”
 
He kisses her on her neck before whispering in her ear, “I thought you said there isn’t much I can do to slow you down.”
 
She turns her head to face his with a smile, “That is one of the few things that CAN slow me down.”  
 
“Alright then, I’ll wait for you in the bedroom.” He tells her, adding “Do not take too long.” But as he tries to step away, Gadget takes his hand again. “Gadget...” He says to her.
 
“I want you to stay, as it will give me a reason to be fast in putting on my makeup and we can talk while I do.” She tells him.
 
She had already had most of her makeup on and just needed a touch of lipstick to finish her looks. Since Gadget took his hand, this made him to stand next to her. Eventually she gets up and turns to him.
 
“So how do I look now?” She asks.
 
“A lot better than before.” He answers.
 
She does not say a word, somehow missing the meaning and intent of his words.
 
He adds, “Look, you fixed up your make up very well. There are no traces of you crying or rubbing your face on my jacket.” She looks at him still confused, making him say, “Look, you are still your cute Gadget self.”
 
Fernando’s smartphone rings making him answer it. It was Charles calling him.
 
“What’s up, Charles?” Fernando asks.
 
Charles reply, “Nando, got some bad news. One Impersonating the Ambassadors is name Jack Mouse. He told me that One of the members that Chip meet told him to impersonate any ambassadors and he is somewhere in the palace. Don’t know who. But he is a Master of Disguise and a good one. We have to look for anything strange that might bring him out.”
 
“Damn... Thanks Charles. I’m with Gadget and the Palace tailor, she had a little accident with her dress and it is being fixed right now. I should be in the Grand Ballroom in about 5 to 10 minutes.” Fernando tells him.
 
“I’ll see you then.” Charles reply.
 
Fernando hangs up the phone. He looks at Gadget for a second.
 
“Something wrong?” Gadget asks.
 
“Just a little situation. Charles will take care of it but he’s letting me know what is up. I’ll see him when we get back to the Ballroom.” Fernando explains.
 
“Nothing serious, I hope.” Gadget replies.
 
“Should be nothing serious, but if it does, do as I tell her and when we get home, We might be working on lowering our stress from all this.” He tells her.
 
“That ought to sound like fun.” She says with a smile.
 
Fernando thinks for a while, and then asks Gadget, “Would you want to be as a teenager again, let’s say from 13 to 15?”
 
“This would be for you?” She asks, pausing and then saying, “You know – for some sex fantasy?”
 
“No... I mean, seriously. I may need a teen operative but we have none, well, outside of my daughters Sabi and Tabi, but they are not mice. You are.”  He tells her. He then asks, “It does not have to be now but maybe near in the future, and we might have to dye your hair black.”
 
“For you I’ll be your Loli Lover and we can practice making babies every day and night if you like. I owe you my life and more on top of that. So whatever you need, I’ll be that for you.” Gadget tells him.
 
“Let’s see what happens. It is just an idea for now. Let’s hope we do not have to use it but just in case.” Fernando tells him.
 
“I’ll do anything for you.” Gadget says to him.
 
“Shhhh...  If anyone asks, we were at the palace tailor fixing your dress as it got a tear along the side seam here. Other than that – remember ‘Secret is in Secretary.’” He tells her as he runs his finger along the side of her dress from the bottom hem on her leg to her waist.
 
Gadget nods at him before he takes her by the waist and pulls her against him, kissing her forehead.
 
He then tells her, “Let’s go.”
 
Again she nods before they close up his personal room and office and head back to the Grand Ballroom.

As Hondo and Yuudai sat talking a pale, grey haired German Sheppard in a very expensive suit came over. He held himself with an air of superiority and looked onto the other attendees as if they were alive by his good graces only. He walked up to the bar and slammed his hand down, clanking the large ring he wore on the counter, to get the bartenders attention.
 
“Schnapps, my good man and be quick about it.” He said with a hint of a German accent showing.
 
Hondo and Yuudai both gave him a sidelong glance then turned back to the bar. He stood there leaning against the bar and looking around as his drink was poured. Once it was handed to him he tossed a few pesos in a tip basket and turned to the two men at the bar.
 
“To the South American Unification Party and to history in the making. Prost!” He said before downing the drink.
 
He swallowed it down and smiled approvingly, “Ahh! That is good the good stuff, ja? We have to have schnapps like this imported from German, you know?”
 
Hondo kind of looked his way then went back to his drink, hoping he would just go away as he smelled trouble on this one. The man sat his glass down and waved to the bartender to fill a second before turning to Hondo and Yuudai once more.
 
“So, you must be the legendary Samurai Cowboy?” The man said
 
Yuudai turned to him, “Yes I am.”
 
The man smiled, “I have heard much about you and like what I hear.”
 
Yuudai nodded, “Thank you, Señor.”
 
The man then nodded at Hondo, “And you, you are the non-legendary, non-famous Hondo Sackett.”
 
Hondo turned to him and raised his eyebrow. His face was that of one annoyed.
 
“I reckon that is me. Now, you know who we are, how ‘bout you tell us who you are?” Hondo said
 
The man smiled and chuckled slightly, “Aha, yes. I forget that I am only well know at home. Forgive my thoughtlessness. I am Mengele, Doctor Josef Mengele, the third, South American Unification Party – Uruguayan Branch.”
 
“What brings you to our country, Señor Mengele?” Yuudai asked trying to be diplomatic at the moment.
 
Mengele smiled, “I am here to witness history with the Japanese/Korea peace accord, in hopes that we too may follow suit for a united South America.”
 
He turned back to Hondo and looked him up and down as if he was a specimen of some interest.
 
“Tell me, Sackett. How are you feeling?” Mengele asked out of the blue.
 
Though he smiled, it seemed insincere and the coldness behind his eyes was almost chilling to behold. Hondo’s bad feeling about this one only grew more by the moment, and as if his name was not enough to set off alarm bells in Hondo’s head, his very being alone made Hondo uneasy.
 
Hondo scowled a bit, “I’m fine, I reckon.”
 
Hondo almost did not want to engage him, but he was wondering where he was going with this.
 
“No new aches, pains, or fatigue?” He asked
 
“What business is it of yours?” Hondo half growled.
 
Mengele smiled his unsettling smile at him, “Just curious.”
 
Yuudai cleared his throat to try to pull Mengele’s attention away from his now irritated friend.
 
“*ahem* Dr. Mengele… it is a familiar name.” Yuudai said.
 
“Ah, yes. I get that often, ja. I was named for my Grandfather, and yes, before you ask, he was the infamous doctor of the Third Reich.” Mengele said almost patronizingly.
 
“I do hope you have not followed in his footsteps, señor.” Yuudai replied coldly.
 
“Yes… Most hope for that.” He replied
 
Yuudai squinted at him, “Did he not have a fascination for those he and Señor Hitler called the master race? If memory serves they were those of blond hair, like my friend here.”
 
Hondo was sure Yuudai was trying to get a bit of a rise out of him, but it did not seem to work. Mengele looked Hondo up and down.
 
“Yes… That was the theory… But even a master race has a few inferior to remove.” He said as he looked at Hondo with a serious, inspecting look.
 
He turned back to Yuudai with a smile, “Of course it is all a theory, but if true I am sure it will prove itself by weeding out the inferior in its own way and time.”
 
He looked at Hondo then back at Yuudai, “Now, I know you are a busy man, but I would like to talk business some time with you if you have time.”
 
Yuudai gave him a half nod, “Yes, call my office and my secretary will make you an appointment.”
 
He nodded and smiled again, “I will do that first thing tomorrow.”
 
He then took up his drink from the counter and held it up to them.
 
“To you gentlemen. Prost!” He said before downing the second drink.  
 
He then set the glass down and nodded at Hondo and Yuudai.
 
“I must take my leave now. I very well may see you again shortly. Good evening.” He said as he clicked his heals together and nodded at them.
 
As he left Hondo growled under his breath as he clenched his fist so tight his knuckles popped, “I don’t like that bastard at all!”
 
Yuudai nodded in agreement, “Yes, this one is no good at all. I will have an eye on him.”
 
Hondo turned to Yuudai with a questioning look, “You really goin’ to make an appointment to see him?”
 
Yuudai smiled, “Of course! I’m a businessman and in my position I must be diplomatic and look at all possible allies… Of course if my schedule is full for the next, say five years, that is not my fault.”
 
Hondo chuckled and shook his head, “I reckon it isn’t.”
 
Yuudai laughed and shook his head, “ha! Now lets forget him for the moment and have another drink, si?”
 
“That sounds like a plan to mem then I need to find Jefe. He needs to know about this guy too!” Hondo replied.
 
Meanwhile Valentine sat beside Hondo but she did not hear a thing as she was lost in her own thoughts and fears. She was getting better, she knew, but was if enough? That was her fear.
