Aayla walked over to Mace and Tahiri.
Mace: "Aayla Secura, this is Tahiri Veila.
Aayla: "Hello."
Tahiri: "Hi." Mace: "By the way Tahiri, my name is Mace Windu. I think I forgot to introduce myself before."
Tahiri: "That's okay. I recognized you from pictures I've seen. The Empire destroyed most jedi related historical records but Master Luke was able to find some."
Aayla: "Are there any records of me?"
Tahiri: "Not that I've seen, but I'm far from being a historian so it's possible that some exist."
Mace: "I couldn't help noticing that you're barefoot. Is this a common practice among the jedi of your era?"
Tahiri: "No, it's just me. My parents were killed by Tusken Raiders in the desert when I was four. A Tusken named Sliven adopted me and took me into their tribe. They raised me until I was nine. Then Master Luke found me and took me to his Jedi Academy on Yavin 4."
Aayla: "You were adopted by the same tribe that killed your parents?"
Tahiri: "Yes, but it was really an accident. My parents had helped Sliven. So he adopted me when they were killed."
Aayla: "She seems very young to be a Jedi Knight, Master Windu."
Mace: "Yes, she is very young. No more than eighteen I'd say. In our own time she would almost certainly still be a padawan learner, but she is from a very different time and a product of a different order. Also times of war often lead to quick promotions. She may have earned her knighthood in battle similar to how Obi-Wan Kenobi earned his knigthood by defeating the Sith warrior that killed Qui-Gon Jinn."
Superman: "Hal, does your ring function differently now?"
Hal: "Yes. How did you know?"
Superman: "Well before you always had to recharge it every 24 hours and unless I'm mistaken you didn't bring your power battery with you."
Hal: "You're right. The Guardians extended the time limit on the ring's charge. I still have to recharge it occasionally but only once about every six months. And they got rid of that silly yellow weakness."
Johnny: "Uh Spidey, I'm dying to find out how you brought Superman here. I thought you were joking."
Spidey: "I was joking and I didn't do it. I shoot webs and stick to stuff. Traveling between universes is a little beyond the range of my abilities. It's not as if I can swing from universe to universe in the same way I swing from building to building."
Johnny: "Ok, ok. I get it. You didn't do it. Couldn't you have just said something like 'It wasn't me.'?"
Spidey: "Sure, but what fun would that be?"
Johnny: "You know, I'm surprised the supervillains you fight don't suffer brain aneurisms."
Spidey: "Yeah, me too."
Johnny: "So we've established that you didn't do it. Who did?"
Spidey: "Mxyzptlk."
Johnny: "Excuse me?"
Spidey: "Mr. Mxyzptlk."
Johnny: "Who is that?"
Spidey: "A funny little imp from the fifth dimension."
Johnny: "Fine. Then don't tell me."
Mace: "Aayla Secura, this is Tahiri Veila.
