Setsuna's Fault: Species Start [Episode 133955]

by Kender

"WHAT?!" came from everyone else.

Rei looked over at the tanned woman. "Are you telling us that we're in the distant past?"

"If you go by the ages of man... Then yes, that is correct," the Time Senshi replied.

"And that means that..?"

"We are in deep trouble..," Ami moaned.

"I can see that. I mean, how civilized can it be around here?"

"That's just it."

"What's that supposed to mean?" Makoto asked.

The cram school ace let her shoulders slum as she looked at her friends and the boy who'd helped to bring them there. "This is the dawn of modern man."

"It doesn't look very modern," Haruka quipped.

"And it won't, for a very long time. The first humans as we know them are supposed to come into existence right about now."

"Are you saying..."

"Cavemen," Michiru whispered, "She's talking about cavemen. We are at the time when the first human beings walked the Earth..."

Setsuna gave them all a nod. "Exactly. And this is where they are supposed to originate from."

"That isn't really good, is it?" Hotaru murmured, "It doesn't sound good..."

"It's not. And not only in the fact that we're stuck in a time when we can seriously affect the timeline."

"We can?"

"Imagine if we were to hurt an insect. It wouldn't be able to fly to bother the sabertoothed tiger that was going to eat our earliest ancestor. Then he'd be in for a bad day, and we'd be in deep trouble."

"Of course, there's always the possibility that we could..," Ami began, but trailed off as she looked over her friends and the martial artist.

"You think so?"

"It's possible..."

"True..."

"You mind letting us in on the secret," Haruka scoffed.

"Trust me, you're better off not knowing."

"What?"

"Exactly," Setsuna replied while:

• it was decided that they needed to prepare a base camp.
• they realised that they were going to have to provide their own food.
• the idea was raised of finding at least some allies out of the local population.
• it quickly became clear that they were not the only ones visiting this time...
• they started work on plans to get themselves home.
• something else happened.
