Vacation Time

It was finally time to get ready and head on out for their planned vacation. Anita spent the past week getting things all set up. Booking the hotel, planning the route they would take, getting what they would need for, during, and after their trip. And Finally, it was time to head on out! The weather was less than stellar, but it wouldn't matter. Nothing short of an alien invasion would keep her from relaxing. She looks over to the other three "Alright, everyone, are we ready to take off?" she asks.

Everyone was ready and rearing to go, though Michru was wearing some shades or rather they were resting on her head. She really didn't need them due to the wheather but she thought them cool so she figured she may as well. She checked her small back pack before nodding herself. "Ready!"

Monica and Emanulle were amused but but agreed. "Yep. I'm really looking forward to this." Monica really was too, it had been some time since she had one.

Once everyone and everything was packed, they headed on out! It was a healthy drive to their destination, about a good two hours by car. Which was fine with Anita. She preferred to do thing her own way, rather than relying on others to do things for her.

They got there about midday, just in time for lunch! Anita took care of the checkin and all that and soon enough, they were in their room.

Simce it was just the four of them (hopefully Regina didn't Crash like before), she just booked they a single room "Okay, that was a long drive, but we're here now. So let's get some lunch." she says.

Michru wasn't picky so she didn't care what she ate, which was good though at the moment she was messing around with a puzzle cube while the adults chatted. Instead of dolls and similar for her age, she was far more interested in cars, tools and things that stimulated her mind. Probably at least in part due to the Eldarian in her, either way she was content and happy as a clam.

"What is everyone in the mood for? I could go for some pizza but not sure about you guys." Monica knew Japan wasn't exacly known for its pizza like say in her home town New York but like all things there was something if you knew where to look.

"I'm fine with it myself, though we are a hotel sure they have things down here we could eat." Emanulle reminded to the place downstairs.

"Ah yeah, true. Been a bit since I've been to a hotel."

Anita chuckles "I don't think pizza is on the menu here. This resort is more of the traditional type." she says. That meant traditional Japanese foods, like rice with fish and pork with noodles, stuff like that.

"We can visit the main donning hall to see it lunch is ready, or we can call and have them deliver it to our room." she explains as she stands "I think I'm gonna go exploring. Iwant to see if there are others here." she says.

Since it was a resort, Emanulle thought there was a decent chance of being other people around even if it wasn't a lot at the given time. "Probably. At least there's a decent chance of it, its the weekend too."

Michru put her cube away for now to follow the others, but she paused briefly before going to grab a old comic to read through while she was down. Monica had given her it some time back; it was a old super hero comic of a set that wasn't any longer in print.

Monica saw this but didn't say anything since it wasn't anything she hadn't seen before besides it was cute. "If its an resort there's bound to be other things to see so I'm with Anita on that one."

It was one of many hotsprings resorts out there, so there wouldn't be Too many guests. Which was what Anita was counting on when she booked their stay. Still, there would be Some people here, besides themselves.

There was a newly wed couple where the guy looked like he could give Jack a run for his money in terms of muscle and his very petite wife who almost looked like a loli.

There was also a writter who came there for the peace and quite, plus a hotsprings resort was the setting for his next murder mystery.

Finally, there was an adult film crew there and they were in the middle of shooting their movie, but the bad weather had forced them to put production on hold for the moment.

Out of all the things Monica didn't expect to see was a adult film crew but she supposed it shouldn't have been too much of a surprise. It did briefly take her mind to other places, mainly with herself, Anita and Manny but she quickly shut that off. Monica knew it was just hormones and that she was attracted to them and trusted them enough.

What was interesting to her was the writer, since she had been really into that back in the day. Maybe she'd pick his brain some time before she left.

"Tut, tut, young one. Anything yoy want to know about anything, you Only need to ask me." Regina says "And if you're wondering Why I'm here, I was feeling lonely and wanted to visit my step grand daughter." she says

Anita didn't Exactly know Regina was there, since she went in a head of the others, but she felt a disturbance in the Force and knew Something was up, but she Refusedto let Regina or Any of the guests ruin her hard earned vacation.

Regina saunters over to Monica "If you're wanting some 'adult' company, I can help you with that..." she purrs in Monica's ear "It's been an exhausting trip, traveling like mortals do, I shall be in my room. It's on the other side of the resort, if you want to 'talk'..." she says as she saunters off, swinging her hips as she goes.

Monica would have to think on it, she may actually take them on that depending on her mood later on. For now she was just content with exploring with Manny and the others. "So.." Monica started after a moment. "What are you two in the mood for food wise?"

"Dunno. Depends what's here?" Michru was going to talk to Regina but she left before she said anything.

"Good attitude. Anita said its like a traditional resort so we'll see when we get there." Personally right now Emanulle was just interested in seeing what was what.

It didn't take long to find Anita. She was in the dining hall and Lunch was being served. She was eyeing everyone in the room.

Firstly, there was the porn star, Aisa Yamagata who was already drunk and it was only noon.

Then there was the newly wed loli wife Keiko Fukushima.

Along with her walking mountain of muscle of a husband Akihito Fukushima.

The only one who was missing, was the writter and the crew. Anita looks over to her friends as they arrive and give them a little smile.

There was a lot of interesting characters Emanulle would admit and some(in the case of Akihito) were obviously having fun. When he and the others found Anita, all of them went over to join. "Interesting crowd today. Find anything you in the mood for?" The last part was in reference to the food.

Monica and Michru got distracted by all the food, it looked so good. For Monica she had always ate a lot, but because of what she was she didn't gain any weight.

Anita nods "They are, indeed, a curious crowd..." she leans close to Manny "With the exception of that little loli girl, they are all Human and she's a Zoanthrope." she whispers.

The husband comes walking over "Well hello there." he extends a hand to Manny "My name is Akihito Fukushima and this is my lovely wife Keiko. It's a pleasure to meet you folks." he says with a smile that would rival Jack's as well.

Emanulle was going to respond before the man came over and introduced himself, he shook his hand. Monica and Michru came wandering back with plates, Michru looked at them semi curiously briefly but she was more focused on her food. "My name is Emanulle its nice to meet you. The little one is Michru my daughter, the woman by me is Anita my girlfriend."

"And I'm Monica." She introduced as well. "Cousin but just enjoying the family trip. Nice to meet you."

Akihito was still smiling "Me and my wife came here for this spring's cleansing waters and for the peace and quiet from the city." he says.

Anita nods "I heard that. After the hustle and bustle of work, it's nice to relax in the quiet mountains. However..." her eyes wander over to the adult film star.

Akihito follows her gaze "So far they've been pretty quiet and kept to shooting away from the other guests." he says in a low tone.

"Akihito, let's not gossip about other people's profession." Keiko says, sounding almost like a child and not a young woman.

Akihito nods "Understood, dear." he says with a chuckle "Well, it was nice to have met you all and I hope we run into eachother again. Enjoy your meal." he says as he heads back over to his wife.

Anita nods "They seem friendly enough." she says as she finds them a table.

Truthfully, Manny didn't have any bones to pick with the adult film star and hers but he knew due to that profession people would have strong feelings towards it. He sat down after along with Monica and Michru.

"Yeah they do. " Monica says after taking a bite to eat. "It's just a small group of people so that makes it perfect for us and what we had in mind. Think there anymore?"

Emanulle shrugged. "Maybe. There could be a few we missed already still in their rooms."

Anita nods "I'm certain there are a few more out there." she says as she nibbles on her food "After lunch, do you want to hit the hotsprings, Michru?" she asks.

Michru blinked then smiled happily nodding. "Yeah, I haven't been to one? I don't remember." Maybe she had when she was even more small? She couldn't really remember back then, she could remember her birth parents a bit but far as Michru was concerned birth or not Emanulle and Anita were her real parents.

Anita didn't know either, but it really didn't matter "Did you want to join us, Monica?" she asks the other woman.

It wouldn't be Too fair that all three would be in the same bath while Manny would be all by his lonesome. However, after ten pm, the baths become mixed baths, so if he wanted to, he could join them then.

Monica thought about it, then smiled. "Sure I'd love too. Guess this leads you the odd man out for now Manny."

"I think I'll live. You three have fun." Emanulle honestly didn't mind if it was just himself, public baths had never been his thing. Sharing it with those on the other hand was a different subject.

Anita finished with her meal and waited for the others to finish up as well. There were three types of hotsprings at this resort. There were both the male and female areas as well as a mixed. But after ten at night, they all became mixed. Which was fine with Anita, as she didn't for see any trouble.

Emanulle went into his part to relax as Michru and Monica went into to get their Very much deserved rest and recover time. Monica gave a content sigh as she slid into the warm water, it felt so good after a long week. "Ah. Now this is something I could get used to. I can't remember the last time I was in one of these."

Anita also gives a content sigh as she relaxes "I have never been in one of these before. That's why I wanted to go." she says "After this, wanna play some tabletop tennis?" she asks.

"Tabletop Tennis? Sure? Why not? I haven't played before so not sure how good I'd be but should be fun. Mom is actually pretty good with it overall when I watched her and my dad play." Monica was always up for new things of that nature besides it was just stuff between herself and family no shame in that.

Anita gives Monica the once over. Her skin and body were just as lovely as she remembered them "So what do you two think about this resort? Can I pickem or can I pickem?" she says, trying to distract herself from the 'Very good ol' days' of their youth.
