Julia shook her head, "Well, at least we know who all the father's are." She mused, she frowned a bit as she looked around, nearly everyone seemed dead on their feet. "Theo dear?"
"Yes Julia?"
"I was thinking of working out some plans for the weddings and some baby showers, but I think I'll hold off until tomorrow. Too much stuff's happened today and everyone is dead tired."
Theo blinked and looked around, sure enough, everyone looked like they were about to fall asleep, no wait scratch that, Sheila was sleeping in Ranma's arms right now as he held her, and Ranma looked to be almost asleep as well. "I guess we can call it a day." Everyone nodded, it wasn't that late, about eight at night, but with all the emotional turmoil that had happened this day, everyone was exhausted in one way or another. "But where will everyone go? I'm not sure if the Emporium will allow so many extras to stay there tonight."
Ukyou shrugged, "It doesn't bother me any. I've got my own place."
"Same with Shampoo."
Theo nodded and turned to the Tendos, "What about you three?"
Nabiki frowned, "Well, I guess we can spend one last night here. Then we should get packed up to go in the morning." Akane and Kasumi nodded at her.
Mumsey looked at Ranma and Sheila, "What about those two? Where are they going to sleep?"
"My son and Sheila can spend the night at my house. In the morning we can come and get his stuff."
Theo nodded and looked at Kodachi, "And what about you?"
"I am not sure. Perhaps it would be best if I spent the night elsewhere outside my home."
Colonge pogoed over, "Don't fret child, you can spend the night at the resturaunt." Most of the Nerima crew that was still awake and there looked at her. "Well, I can't just throw her out on her ear now can I?"
"Shampoo just realize something, where Mousse, stick-boy and lost-boy?"
"Ryoga, remind me never to follow you again."
"Indeed, for one such as myself should not have to walk across the desert, an ice field and a french sewer to get out of that whelp's mad house."
"Oh put a sock in it, I got you out didn't I?"
Everyone blinked, that was still awake, at the sight of Ryoga leading Mousse and Kuno out from behind the Dojo. Though Mousse and Kuno were limping terribly.
"Oh my! It looks like they're alright. But I'm still not happy with that Kuno boy for calling us those names earlier." Everyone nodded with that.
"SAO. ." Kuno started, but, *WHAM!* and was smashed into the ground by an umbrella and knocked unconscious. "Why did you do that Ryoga?"
"Simple. I don't like him. The only reason I helped him get out of that place was because he followed me and that's it." Mousse just nodded.
Brianna blinked as she saw how that guy, who wasn't bad looking in her opinion, used an umbrella to knock someone out, she just had to see something. So she walked over to them, "Say, can I see that thing for a minute?"
Ryoga blinked, "Huh, oh sure."
He handed it to her and Brianna was surprised at the weight of it. "Holy! This thing has to weigh at least 500 pounds." She then looked at Ryoga, "And you use this as a weapon?"
"Well, actually, it's one of my lighter ones. I have one that weighs one ton, but that one's at home right now."
Mousse rolled his eyes, "Yeah, you only swing a 500 pound umbrella around with the same ease as I do with my chains." Mousse was actually mellowed out a bit since Ranma beat the crap out of him and that evil child had him locked up.
Theo tuned that conversation out and looked at the rat trio, "So, what about you three?"
Lydia shrugged, "We got no @#$%#%$# place to go right now."
Theo nodded, "I'd let you stay with us at the Emporium, but I think that it'll be up to Britanny mostly, you three have caused a bit of trouble for her in the past you know."
"Like, we know."
"Daddy?"
"Hmm, oh yes Britanny? What is it?"
"Well, I guess they can stay, just as long as they don't try anything."
Theo nodded, it sounded reasonable enough, "What do you three think?"
Romeo blinked, "You mean, that you'll let us stay with you, just like that?"
"I'm tempted not to, but I'm tired right now and I don't want to argue about it."
"Julia dear?"
"Yes Mumsey?"
"Will there be an open spot at this inn you're staying at, or will I have to go home right away?"
"I think we can find a place to fit you." Julia then turned to Penny and Ace, "What about you two? We're leaving sometime tomorrow for Atlanta. Do you two want to wait here for a night, or do you want Theo to teleport the two of you and Charlotte home?"
"Actually Mrs. Diggers, I got my plane over here. I guess we can wait one night before goin home. That is, unless my girl wants to go home right now."
Penny scratched her head, "I don't see any problems with staying for one night."
Theo nodded, "So we'll be having six extra people staying with us at the hotel huh?" He grimaced, "The management may not like that."
"Actually, Dr. Diggers, I'd like to stay here for the night with Kasumi."
Akane glanced at Tirga, then looked at Theo, "Um, if Romeo, Moshia and Lydia want to, they can stay here as well."
Romeo blinked, "Really?"
"Sure, why not? I know I'm not always the nicest person, but I just don't throw people out onto the street to sleep."
"Like, wow! Romes, your girl's rather, you know, nice. When she's not knocking you around with that, um, big wooden hammer thingie."
Akane just flushed a little at that, but glared a bit at the purple-haired Wererat.
