Never mind Katrina, She's just Fridge-id.

<Snip>
"Ok, thank you all for coming, we are just going to take a small intermission. Whilst we set up for act two." She gestured to the wings and the curtains closed. She had just taken part in the most well known magic trick of the 21st century.

“What were you even doing in there anyway?” Jade asked Jay as they headed off the stage and toward the crowd. “I heard you yelling in excitement earlier, I assumed you’d won big!”
“Yeah, I won a few grand on the Roulette wheel.” Jay replied. “Nipped out to use the gents for a second when the Time Fridge appeared in one of the cubicles. Some girl came running out screaming…I think she was with Alex, I went inside the fridge to see if Phil and I could work out a way we could get back to the Dwarf, circumventing the time drive which seems to be sending us wherever the hell it likes….seems not…the paradoxes are dragging it in too and I AM NOT TRAVELLING BY TIME FRIDGE AGAIN PHIL!”
“What?” Replied Phil
“What? THAT THING” he pointed at Mini-Phil “Is powering the thing with his arse kisses….how is it even possible to power a TIME MACHINE with farts?”
“He had a curry.”
“Come to think of it, Katrinas not travelling in there either. She’s gonna need a thousand showers before she feels clean again after what he did to her in there…not to mention years of therapy!”
“He likes her!” Phil said, glancing toward Katrina who was currently huddled in a corner, hugging her knees and gently rocking back and forth “It’s a compliment if anything!”
“Do I want to know?” Jade asked, not being familiar with the midget.
Jay looked her up and down. “Probably not…but if you see him coming, RUN…”
“At least this time we were sober…” said Phil.
“Yeah” said Jay. “I never did figure out what happened that time we decided to have a few cans and watch the football at my place, and woke up 6 weeks later having caused the extinction of the dinosaurs.”
“Standard night out”
The next day
Jay, and a more stable Katrina strolled into the breakfast room. Jay was exhausted. He’d been up all night comforting her. He’d managed to get a few minutes shut eye during her many showers, only to be woken each time by her insisting she’d ‘got it all out of her hair’. That midget may be small. But he sure produced a lot of….goo..
Jay spotted the table where Jade sat, she’d be joined by Artemis, Boyd, Jaxx and Evelina so he headed for it and sat down.
“Finally” he said “We were starting to wonder what happened to you guys!”
“Mr Chrysler!” Artemis said excitedly. “Thank goodness. Mr Kong is…missing.”
“Who?”
“Mr Kong! You know, short fellow with goggles. Doesn’t do much.”
“Oh! Jacky!”
“Yes…he hasn’t been seen since last night”
“Ok. We’ll spread out. Cover as much of the city as we can to find him…I left a helicopter at the Grand Canyon..if we could get a few from the air I’m sure…”
“We might have bigger worries…” Cass said, as she sat at the other end of the table.”
“What do you mean?” Jay asked
“I think Kenneth and I have found out what’s causing the paradox…and why you and Kat’s STCP friends were here…”
She passed her handheld to Jay ,Katrina leaned in as he glanced at it.
“That’s a still from CCTV footage from a camera in the main office. That was being placed in a safe…it’s a …”
“It’s a type 6 pulse rifle…” Jay said
“From about 300 years from now…” Katrina added.
“If that got into the wrong hands…if it got mass produced…” Jay said
“Then everything will go to smeg” Cass finished.
“So…” Jade asked “What do we do?”
