Another day in an average home on Yamatai. Akiko and Shizuka had returned home on shore leave to visit their mother. Unfortunately for mom they had arrived just a bit sooner than planned and she was still busy working at the quartermaster section at her post in Kyoto.

"Mama forgot to clean again, onee-chan." Akiko remarked as she and Shizuka looked around at their former home. Their mother's home was a small four room apartment consisting of a living room/kitchen/common area, bath/water closet, and two bedrooms. There was wood paneled flooring and a simple white plastered walls overlaying a metal insulated internal support structure. It was not luxurious but it was cozy and simple along with very modern amenities to help maximize living space.

Unfortunately it was also a mess. A pile of laundry nearly reached the ceiling, the floors were dirty, the kitchen had dirty dishes, and apparently a party had been held not too long ago as noted by the masses of debris on the floor. How their mother's home could hold so many people was a mystery to the two sisters.

"Well Akiko-chan, lets get to work. I believe mama said she was bringing her girlfriend over to meet us." Shizuka declared with resignation.

"Uhn!" Akiko nodded and ran to tackle the pile of laundry. In a humorous turn she was already overloaded with clothes and managed to fall over herself. In the meantime Shizuka walked over to the small closet and opened the door. Inside was what she was looking for: the Propulsion Broom.

"At least mama remembered to charge it." Shizuka said to herself as she picked it up from the charging stand that had been fixed to the wall. The hooks secured the stand to the wall while the charging port held the broom in place. With a simple flip of a switch Shizuka activated the broom. A quiet hum, mostly felt than heard, was now being emitted by the emitter section. Holding the broom like a regular one Shizuka put the emitter out before her. While walking she then began to gather all of the debris within the span of the emitter's width.

Because the emitter was capable of picking up every loose piece of trash and dirt within range it was a simple matter of walking the floor in sections in order to clean it. There was no need to backtrack any lane she covered. In a matter of minutes the small floorspace was soon cleared minus the area being currently occupied by the pile of laundry.

After gathering all the debris together into a pile Shizuka then put it all into a bag for proper disposal. She then went on to help Akiko with the laundry. Most likely she would be laid out on the floor having tripped again on the way to the laundry room.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Several hours later the work was done. Shizuka put the propulsion broom back in the closet and set it on the charger. She was reminded of other times aboard a ship when she would use it to clean up small messes. Usually the charger was held up by the magnetic clamps.

After sitting down to relax the two sisters were then alerted to the door opening. Both sisters looked over and called out: "Mama!"
