"This is your bag," Wufei said, handing a duffle bag to Trinity and Mara Jade. "Everythign you need to bring with you will go into this bag. You will only have one bag so you need to share."
Five-year old Mara Jade looked at the bag her sister was holding and frowned. "Daddy, that bag’s not big enough for my bed."
"We’re not taking your bed. The bed stays here."
"Then were will I sleep?"
"There will be beds ready for us where we are going."
"Oh… will there be a toy chest, too?"
Wufei eyed his daughter suspiciously, and then he took the bag back, saying, "I will pack for you. Go along and annoy your father."
"Okay! DADDY" two little girls cried out, running from the room.
"Trowa, are you sure we have everything?" Quatre asked nervously, eyeing the packed car.
