Dria checked and rechecked the camping supplies, the study supplies, oh and the food - there was about a mountain of canned food on the kitchen table.
Dria had worked it out with her mentee's guardians that she and Kianna could spend a few days camping and hanging out - if Dria helped tutor Kianna for a big test coming up, at the same time (as well as do her own studies of course). And of course, there would still be time to get camping activities - hiking, swimming in the lake, cooking on a small grill, and roasting marshmallows over a roaring campfire for s'mores.
Well, most of that was true anyway. She would of course tutor Kianna until Kianna knew the subject by heart - and she'd get her own studies done as well. Dria knew they could pretty much count on there being hiking involved and definitely cooking on the grill, and they could easily make s'mores.
As for swimming, Dria didn't know if Kianna's guardians would count trudging through massive dead and dried out lake and riverbeds.
However, Dria and Kianna had different plans about where they were to camp -- as in offplanet.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, interrupting her thoughts. Jumping in surprise, she yelped and murmured, "Here already? Kianna and her family are early!" Dria cried as she went to let them in and greet them.

Kianna was excited to get the invite from Dria. She needed something to get her mind off the hunt for her biological parents. Not only that but camping sounded like a fun thing to do. She hadn't been camping since the time they built a camp ground in her families living room. It was the closest they could do since her parents worked a lot. They always wanted to give her the best.
She smiled as she knocked on the door. She had forgotten to let Dria know that her parents were off on a study session at their work. They told her to go ahead and have fun since they weren't sure when the research study would end. She left them all the contact info and information on where they were going. Her parents were pretty awesome like that. Normally they didn't miss events like this, but they were working on research that could save lives so she didn't mind. She was cheering them on.
"Hey Dria it's me!" she said kindly at the door, just in case she hadn't already realized it was her.

Dria grinned as she welcomed Kianna in, carefully making sure she locked the door tightly behind Kianna, like she wanted to keep someone or something out. "Hey, there, Kianna, Good to see you. If you would just put your stuff in that pile," She pointed at a small pile of camping gear and study materials that gave off the vibe that there was really more there than it seemed. "And, then join me at the table." Once both of them were seated at the table, Dria spoke, "I have a few questions for you, before we start. I hope you don't mind." She waited a moment. "Or rather Pasithee, has one or two for Ametkhan."

Kianna nodded and quickly put her bag in the pile. It was a green scaled like gym bag. She always packed pretty light when it came to any adventure. She figured if something were to happen she wanted to be able to pack up quickly.
Once that was finished she headed over and took a seat at the table. "For sure! What questions do you have for me? or my other side," she said with a smile. Her curiosity was definitely peaked and she hoped she would have the answers.

Dria, smiled and got straight to the point. "Have you ever traveled to your homeworld or anyone else's?" She sipped the last of her herbal tea as she asked, and made sure Kianna had a cup as well, if she wanted it.

Kianna had to think about it for a second. She had heard about people going to homeworlds, but she had never actually hitched a ride to one. She was curious about what they looked like. Were they all different depending on the person or did they all have some things in common.
She quickly took a sip of the tea before answering, "So not yet, I've been curious about them. Why? Oh and thank you for the tea it's delicious."
She didn't drink much of anything but water lately due to all the running she was doing. But she could never turn down a good soothing tea. The benefits were strong with most of the herbal ones.

"Hmm. Do you know that you have a Homeworld of your own as well? It's in ruins and decay - at some point, something happened (probably Chaos) and it was wiped of life - Don't worry - all Homeworlds start like that. You can restore it if you like, and I can help, and show you how, or you can leave it as it is - it is your choice." Without waiting for an answer, she hurried on. "As a matter of fact, I am beginning to restore my own world. Speaking of which, I may have been a bit dishonest with you and your parents about our true destination, and reason[ for going - although I will now be giving you a choice. "We will still be getting a lot of studying in (yours and mine) - if we go where I would like to go, and a lot of training in too - if only in a "Mr. Myaugi" way. "I would now like to invite you to my Homeworld, the World known as Pasithee, to help me do some Restoration - along with studying. It's up to you, unless you rather go camping the traditional way?" Dria put down her empty cup of tea, and waited for Kianna to answer.

Kianna continued to listen before she answered. She actually didn't know she had a homeworld at all. This was all new to her. She really didn't know much about homeworlds and with the search for her biological parents she hadn't done much research either.
"I'll be honest I didn't know that I had one. I really don't know much about them," she said with all honesty. She wasn't one to sugarcoat what she knew since if she did that she would never learn. Like that one time at the track when she couldn't seem to get her time under. Had she not told someone she never would have perfected her run.
She quickly shook her head and thought back to the rest of what Dria said. "Thats good to know. I'll definitely have to go sometime, but I would love to visit yours to help! It would definitely be a great help for when I go to my own. Thank you for taking me with you. So how do we get there?"
She said she didn't mean to talk so much but she was excited now. It was a new adventure. Maybe if she went to her own homeland sometimes she could rebuild it one day. And who knew maybe she would find some secrets about her past there too. She couldn't wait to visit a homeland to see just what it was like. She quickly gulped down her tea and waited to see what came next.

Dria grinned. "Alright. First, we need to power up, then I can teleport us and our stuff." She stood and transformed. "Ready?" She waited for Kianna. When her younger friend had, she greeted her in the formal way. "Super Sailor Ametkhan of Crocrodiles, I, Eternal Sailor Pasithee of The Blue Lotus greet you, and welcome you to my world. Let us go." She teleported them to her world.

Kianna Quickly powered up and became super senshi of crocodiles, sailor Ametkhan. "Let's do this, I'm ready to go!" She said with a smile.
She was ready to put all her effort into doing whatever she could to help restore her homeworld. She waited to be teleported and once she was she was excited to see exactly what a homeworld looked like. She knew the adventure was about to begin.
