Rock was nearing punching point with Raditz's commentary, his face obviously showing it the entire trip right till they got to the lounge. He was going to perform a friendly escort out of the bathroom, when the hunger and the smell combined to create the reversal food effect.

Nasty sour stuff landed on Raditz's foot before Rock found a free stall that was not on the port-a-potty side. Dee had heard this with her super-sensitive hearing and saw what was going on. She looked at Raditz's foot and said, "You're lucky that Rock only got sick on you Raditz, you know that."

Upon seeing Raditz grumble and nod, Dee then escorted Jinxi out of the smelly bathroom. She asked Jinxi, "Did you enjoy your tour so far? I am sorry that the trip was cut short, but that was my fault for not getting Rock to use some sort of underwater protection."

Jinxi tried not to show how relieved she was to be back in the bar, out of the underwater realm and the men's room. But her deep breaths gave her away.

"Oh am I glad to see you! The tour was... interesting. But I'm not sure I am as capable of magic as Raditz thinks I am. However, he's right, my memory is not as stable as I know it should be." She sank down into a chair at an otherwise empty table, shaking her head ruefully. "I'm as tired as if I'd done a full day's work. How long were we gone? I completely lost track of time."

Rock looked at his watch and replied, "We were gone 4 hours, 34 minutes, and 15 seconds."

Dee added. "You just aren't used to this place yet that's all. Once you do get used to it, you'll see that you have powers within you untapped. Before I was crowned queen of this galaxy, I didn't really think I had any special powers either except for one. I knew I had the power to physically possess others and that I only do that out of protection of them. Never do I invade someone for personal gain. And now, now I realize that I have so many different special powers, its a wonder that I hadn't lost my sanity. I mean, like to have as much power as I do, its easy to lose one's head and abuse it."

Rock then sighed, "You know who might really be able to help Jinxi besides us, Ma? I think Jinxi's friends. Ya know...the ones she wishes was here."

"Then I have an idea. Jinxi, how badly do you want Trixi and that other friend of yours to live here with you? See, if we can meet them, then maybe just maybe we can get your memory back. If you want the wish bad enough, I will go searching for the dragon balls. One perfect wish will be granted to the one who collects all 7."

Jinxi nodded at Rock as he read off the time elapsed. She had suspected that the whole adventure had not taken as long as it felt.

In response to Empress Dee's offer, Jinxi at first lit up like a Christmas Tree in delighted anticipation. Then she looked off in serious contemplation as her brow furrowed. Thoughtfully she finally replied, "It wouldn't be fair to wish for someone else to be here against their will. Especially someone as busy and important as the Porters are." A mischievous grin overtook her face as she concluded, "But Trixi is a good friend - she'll understand why. Yes, I'd like that very much! I will wish Trixi here if I get the chance!"

[ooc: I'll play Trixi, if that's ok.]

(Of course you get to play as Trixi. She is your character after all.)

"Awesome!" Dee replied, "First thing's first though, food. You guys are probably very hungry and Rock you must be starving after having that well, you know. So, what do you guys want to eat? I'm cooking this time."

Rock thought carefully and replied with full honesty, "I would like a lightly breaded Stegosaurus burger with Harvest Gardens lettuce, mayo on the bun both sides and to drink, I will get a caffinated ginger root soda. Earth terms a root beer."

Jinxi turned thoughtful eyes on Rock, and finally nodded with a smile. "That sounds interesting and probably delicious, especially knowing" she turned to dee, "your cooking. Count me in!"

"Very well," Dee said, "Two Stego specials coming up."

Dee left for the kitchen on the third floor, which was where the lounge part of the mansion was, and Rock turned his attention on Jinxi once again. He then asked, "So, other than being a bit of a prankster, from what you've told me, do you remember anything else about your friend Trixi? I mean, from what it sounds like, you would be from someplace in the Renaissance or a neighboring galaxy, but it would be someplace that my mom rarely if ever has been. Some of these other worlds in the Renaissance have barely been explored. Of course, there are a lot that have, but you know... with a galaxy this large you cannot exactly expect my mom to have visited every single one, right?"

(The link here will show you a list of the planets known in the Renaissance in accordance to the subforums. On exception of Lounges and the bumping committee, every other subforum represents one planet or more within the renaissance galaxy http://www.gaiaonline.com/guilds/viewforum.php?f=146237)

Jinxi nodded in agreement. "Sounds like a lot to expect even of her!" She tilted her head to one side, a pink lock of hair falling across her cheek. "I've never heard it referred to as Renaissance Galaxy. I guess it's more likely we're from a neighboring galaxy." She smiled as she thought of her friend. "Trixi is mischievous, but she's a loyal friend. She's generally cheerful and curious, unless..." Jinxi looked a bit somber at a memory, "unless she's very ill." Then Jinxi brightened. "But she's usually tons of fun to be with, willing to try anything at least once."

Rock laughed after listening, then he said, "Now Trixi is sounding a lot like Trunks, who is Vegeta and Bulma's kid. He's the same way. Very curious, a bit of a prankster, willing to try anything once. But unless he is in a battle or not feeling well, Trunks is the complete opposite and you would not want to be anywhere near him. I guess the reason Ma has so many kings, but not ones so high up in rank as Dad is because this galaxy is so huge. As for your looks, you do remind me a bit of Sailor Mini Moon whose other identity is Rini. But, you also remind me of someone who is the bodyguard to The Wolverine. And yet, due to the fact that someone from an army tried to brainwash you, which was likely the result of the amnesia to begin with, in terms of where you are actually from likely neighbors that. The army that had taken you was from a place located somewhere on the right hand side of the Great Wall. That side has some pretty interesting and magical planets. The winx fairies, the knights of the Zodiac, Jem and the Holograms, the Misfits, they are all from that side and each with incredible powers. The Sailor Scout planets are also located on that side as well as the only well known one as the Dragon Ball empire, which is where Ma will be going after we eat. We might want to tag along, but we would be going there for some exploration purposes whereas Ma is going on a dragon ball hunt. I kinda wonder what Trunks has been up to lately since he hasn't appeared here at the lounge in a good couple of months."

Jinxi looked thoughtful. "I think some of those names sound a little familiar, so maybe we are from that part of that galaxy. Maybe." She shrugged. "I'm still having a lot of trouble remembering stuff. Sorry. I think part of my problem is I didn't pay that much attention to near-by galaxies."

"That's all right," Rock said as he reached across the table and gave Jinxi a sweet kiss, "In time your memory will return. I am almost positive that the more we tour the galaxy ourselves unintentionally doing some of Ma's work for her, we may just stumble across your home planet. Now, from what you know of me so far, do I remind you of anyone from your world that you can remember? I mean, I know I am really Rock Howard Bogard, but I am sure I have some doppleganger who looks just like me out there somewhere."

Thanks to a darkened stage nearby, while Terry was polishing his guitar like he always did at this time of day before a gig, he got to see that Rock was indeed in love with the one known as Jinxi. He smiled when he saw Rock kiss her. He then caught a whiff of the stegosaurus burger nearly ready, which made him sneeze loudly.

"Bwachoo!" He exclaimed beyond his control.

Jinxi smiled and blushed a little at his kiss. In answer to his question, she shook her head slowly. "I don't think I've ever met anyone quite like you, Rock. You are definitely one-of-a-kind!" she replied with a soft smile. She liked the way he made her feel so special even as she felt so out of sorts so much of the time with her memory gone.

She jumped a little when Terry sneezed, sending a "Bless you!" his way when she found him in the shadows.

Now it was Rock's turn to blush. He could have sworn that everybody had at least one look alike, so to hear that he was an original was a real compliment. When Terry sneezed, Rock growled a bit at ruining the moment for him, though deep down, Rock knew that it wasn't on purpose.

Moments later, the food appeared from along the conveyer belt overhead, where the dishes plopped down nicely in front of both Rock and Jinxi. Rock lifted his burger and before taking a bite from it, he said to Jinxi, "Word of advice, when eating these, they must be eaten first. The colder they get they begin to taste lousy."

Rock took a huge chunk out of the sandwich while waiting for Jinxi to start hers. As always, Dee had been proud of her cooking as it was something she enjoyed doing.

As Rock began to eat, Terry noticed that his guitar was finally ready to begin playing, so, he wandered to the back of the stage, flipped a switch so that lights in all colors of the rainbow shone upon it. Then, taking his place at his usual microphone, he began playing his guitar and sung the song "The Look" originally done by Roxette.

Trusting in Rock and Dee, Jinxi closed her eyes before eating the sandwich. A smile spread over her face as she enjoyed it, eyes firmly closed but lips curled up in pleasure.

Jinxi's foot started tapping along with the Terry's rhythm, enjoying the unfamiliar music that seemed the perfect backdrop for the delicious meal.

After eating half the sandwich, she finally opened her eyes in curiosity, readily admitting, "You're right, it's delicious, and looks very strange!" Then she turned to Terry and added, "Thanks for the music. It's very pretty. Who is the girl with brown eyes?"

Rock smiled after seeing Jinxi enjoy her meal. He replied, once he finished downing his burger, "Looks have nothing to do with how tastes behave. I mean, the burger is larger than say a chicken's breast, this is true. But, other than that, flavor wise, tastes exactly the same."
