"Maybe." Aaron sighed as he looked at Mayumi. "If I'm being asked to treat this like a night off or even a team bonding experience, then cool. Let's bond away. But if this is supposed to serve as some added motivation then meh." The Black Ranger continued to brush off the need for additional fuel to the fire.

"I'll still play nice about it so I don't kill the vibe for the trip. Maybe if we're lucky, you can squash this notion that JT has some beef with you while we're out there." Aaron cracked a smile as he referenced their earlier conversation.

Mayumi snickered. "If it's added motivation they want, just tell them if we don't save the mulitverse, nobody gets laid ever again," she said. "From what I know of KIda, that'll motivate that girl in a heartbeat." She shrugged at the comment about JT, and she smiled a bit. "Eh, maybe. I do have a habit of making people want to punch me in the face..."

Mayumi snickered. "If it's added motivation they want, just tell them if we don't save the mulitverse, nobody gets laid ever again," she said.

I do have a habit of making people want to punch me in the face..."

"I'm not going to argue that point." Aaron responded quickly as he shook his head. "But hey, eventually the desire to punch you wears off... sometimes they actually even grow to like you." The Black Ranger joked with his fellow shinobi. "I'll see you in a sec. It will only take a sec to pack this bag."

JT walked to her quarters and saw the two shinobi chatting it up. She rushed to her apartment after that and bolted to her room, quickly throwing in a bag what she thought she needed while talking to herself. "Come on, girl. Why are you being weird!?" She smacked herself upside the head. "Get it together, JT!"

"Oh, don't you start on me," Kida laughed, jogging over to JT's door and knocking. "JT?"

"One sec!" On top of packing her bag, she quickly changed clothes, opting for a pair of khaki shorts and a pink tank top, assuming that it would be hot, even in the desert. Once her bag was packed and she was satisfied with her clothing choice, she walked to the door, opening it to see Kida standing on the other side.

"Yeah?" JT responded, flinging the bag over her shoulder.

"You okay?" Kida asked. "You took off running for your room like there was a wild dog chasing you down. Wanna talk about it?"

"Nah, just getting my ass in gear so I don't have to hear it from Jameson." JT chuckled as she exited her apartment fully, closing the door behind her. "You ready to go?"

Kida snickered and nodded. "Yeah," she said. Reaching out, she put her hand on JT's arm. "I know I come across all bossy and kind of Mom-ish all the time, but if something's bothering you, I don't care what I'm doing, I'll stop and listen, ok? You're my team, and my friends, and how you feel affects the whole team. If something's wrong, lemme know."

"Kind of?" JT smirked. She appreciated the gesture but couldn't help to sneak a dig in when she could. "Seriously though, I'm good. If I run into some crisis of the mind, I promise I'll let you know."

"Let her know what?" Aaron had finished packing and left his apartment, walking in on the tail end of their conversation. He had his bag slung over his shoulder, looking at the the girls and opting to chime in. "How to properly bow, Princess?"

"If I were giving out lessons on how to bow down, I'd sit you at the front of the class."

"Of course you would. Fair warning though, I can't be held accountable if I start laughing in your face." Aaron laughed, earning a swift middle finger salute from the Pink Ranger.

Jameson rolled his eyes at teh interaction with his Rangers, shaking his head. "Alright, if you're all done giving each other shit. Let's get a move on," he said wit ha smile.

"That's where you're missing the boat, Jameson." Aaron spoke casually, putting his hands in his pocket. "We'll always give each other shit, even if the world is falling apart. Call it advanced multitasking." He flashed a small smile, seemingly ready to depart.

JT shook her head, choosing not to give Aaron and new ammo at that point. Instead, she looked around to see that there was still one missing. "Where's the old man? I hope he's not packing a vacation bag!" She asked aloud, referencing Jaxon.

"Where's the old man? I hope he's not packing a vacation bag!" She asked aloud, referencing Jaxon.

"Old man?! Girl, you got room to talk miss "Wet behind the ears"." Jaxon stated as he made his way towards the rest of the group with his bags. "Just because I'm older than you don't mean I still can't give any one of you a hard time. Next time I run into your dear old dad, I'm gonna convince him to make me your godfather. That way I can torture your little ass every chance I get!" Jaxon said as he started laughing.

Jameson cocked an eyebrow at the bags Jaxon was carrying. "Dude, you know we're only out there for one night," he said with an amused grin.

KIda shook her head, looking at the Blue and Pink Rangers. "I'm older then both of you. Knock it off," she said with a laugh.

Rina shook her head, folding her arms. "I swear, you guys can't go more then five minutes without picking at each other."

Mayumi chuckled, shifting her own bag onto her shoulder. "Sign of a good team if they're snipping," she said, looking at Rina. "Aaron and I used to snipe at each other like that all the time dealing with our problems."
