Hello! I want to say thank for liking my Seasons Beatings story. I really appreciate it!

Anyway this story will be about my OC Kari Parker joining Chiro and the Hyperforce. As time go on, you will learn about Kari past. But the first chapter is how they met her.

So relax and enjoy the story!

P.S. This take place between the first and second season.

Also thank you my beta reader PurpleDragon6 for editing my chaltet and makinf it better!

It all started with the team who just finished fighting another battle. Just your typical fight with the monster of the week. Unfortunately, The Super Robot, per the norm, was now all dirty. Dirt and monster fur clung to the robot's once clean surface in a way that made the whole team cringe. Cleaning the thing was NOT going to be a fun task.

Good thing that didn't have to.

"And thats why I am thankful for 'Clean Ops'." Chiro chided, turning to the head of the clean up team and offering a boyish smile." Thanks for helping us clean up."

"No problem kid. It the least we can do since you are your monkeys save the city." The head said, ruffling the boy's hair. "Keep up the good work."

"We do what we can." Chiro replied, taking a quick scan of the clean workers as they scrubbed the robot clean. It was almost nice seeing them again after Gyrus was removed from their group. It felt a lot less threatening having them around- even if there was more of them. "Man, I feel like the more I see you guys the more I see new members."

During his scan, the young hero had counted maybe 4 more members to the clean up crew. They all had a similar profile about them. Unhappy, middle aged men, all wearing the same uniform and doing the same job- Then he saw her.

A young girl, with a blonde ponytail, blue eyes, and black glasses perched on the end of her nose. She was wearing the cleaning uniform like the others, but there was something more lively to the way she wiped the monster guts off of the robot. Chiro was surprised, both from the sudden shine coming off of the now clean robot, and because he had never seen a young kid in the cleaning team before.

"Didn't think you'd hire a kid for this kind of job." He noted, unknowingly outloud.

"Oh, yeah that's Kari Parker. She an intern on the team." The older man shook his head. "And I'd say the same thing about you being hired for the monkey team... Employees just get younger and younger these days."

"In fairness, its not like I had anywhere else to be when I got the job." Chiro clicked his tongue, an edgy retort sitting on the tip of it. "Most people with parents would need a permission slip or something-"

"Sounds like you two were in the same boat then." The boss cut in sharply. "With this many monsters running around, did ya really think you were the only orphan in the city?"

"Orpha- so shes a- Oh..." Chiro felt his whole face fall. With his position as Hero of Shuggazoom, he liked to think that he did a decent job of keeping the city safe- or at least absorb most of the blow that came with the attacks that befell it. It almost slipped his mind- the casualties of the fights- weren't always the monsters. Perhaps it was the child in him, but he didn't like the thought of anyone but the bad guy being lost in the end of the day.

"Well... Then that means we have something to talk about together." He said.

Chiro looked at the girl again and smiled. It wasn't every day he met someone new around his age, and the gentlemen in him was always open to greeting newcomers who weren't trying to kill him. However, when the girl noticed Chiro smiling at her, she quickly and nervously looked back down and kept working.

"Oh yeah she's a little shy, especially it comes to meeting new people." The boss snickered, patting Chiro"s shoulder hard. "We're almost done here anyhow. If you want, I'll call her over and you two can chat some afterwards."

"Oh okay!" The boy's hero smile brightened a bit. "It be pretty cool of you to do that-."

"HEY KARI! Come meet the Monkey team!" The boss shouted.

Kari was clearly shocked by the sudden yelling of her name, but she rushed over to the team anyhow. Like before, the moment she saw Chiro she looked away and seemingly became even more nervous. She had a face like a deer being in the headlight of a car.

"Don't be shy. Just say hi and maybe ask them about stuff." Her boss instructed sharply.

"Hi…" Kari muttered.

Chiro smiled politely and waved his hand "Hey there. I'm Chiro. I'm the leader of the Monkey Team, along with Sparks, Nova, Antauri, Gibson and Otto."

Not his best introduction, but what else could he say? When he was in uniform he expected himself to remain in his hero persona.

"Um it's really nice to meet you guys. I-I heard you guys do an amazing job protecting the city." Kari squeaked, before unceremoniously smacking herself on the head. "Well duh- you guys just saved the city a few minutes ago- I saw the whole thing! Its really cool-!"

Chiro smiled once more, this time in a very thankful and amused way. "It what we do. What made you decide to be an intern for the clean-up crew?"

"Oh umm...it's because I want to help the city the best way that I can. You know how we always have to make a clean getaway every time villain come over you know?" Kari laughed. "Thats a bad joke, but I've never had anyone ask me about my job before! I've been holding that joke in for a while now!"

"Hey, its my job to protect the citizens of Shuggazoom, so I'm always happy to hear things going well and whatever bad jokes come with that."

Chiro laughed at Kari's joke which made her smile and seemingly feel less nervous. Then the Clean Ops crew along with Kari finished cleaning up the Super Robot. The Super Robot was now sparkly clean.

"Well, I'd better go. See you next time." Kari giggled, turning sharply on her heels and hurrying back to rejoin her crew.

Kari and the others wave goodbye and left soon after. Chiro felt a bit of pride well up in his chest. It felt like a job well done a thousand times over. With a soft laugh, he rejoined the rest of the team went back inside the new clean Super Robot.

Once inside, the Hyperforce found themselves now relaxing. Otto and Sparks were tossed lazily in their chairs, Gibson had found himself enraptured in some kind of book, Antari with his meditating, and Chiro and Nova were parked on the floor with a new video game to play.

"Man I'm glad the clean-up crew did the job for us." Sprx spoke up, "But am I the only one who feels totally wiped out?"

"Hey, we had a full day's work with protecting the city and cheering up some jittery citizens." Chiro reminded him.

"And by 'some', you mean one kid." Sprx muttered.

"Hey, how often is it that I get to cheer up a kid? Ever since Jinmay left I've been on my own." Chiro sighed, earning a few questioning glances from the team. "K-kids my own age wise."

With that, Gibson closed his book.

"Yes, well, do be cautious. I wouldn't trust anyone you haven't seen in this city at least once before." The blue monkey said, a firm edge lining his voice.

"What do you mean? She seems normal." Chiro pouted.

"I don't know Chiro, last time you made a new friend, she turned out to be a robot under Skeleton King's control... And don't even get me started on the whole Sunrider fiasco!" Nova added, eyes never leaving the game screen.

"Maybe she's an alien! Or another robot or even a robot alien!" Otto teased, suddenly throwing himself onto Chiro's back. "Think about it!"

"Well I don't know guys she seems like a pretty normal person." Chiro said, trying his best not to laugh as he shoved Otto off of himself. Before he could, however, Sprx joined in on the dog- or rather the MONKEY pile.

"I doubt it Kid. I mean every time we meet a normal person, they turned out to be either evil or robots, or even just weirdos." The red simian laughed, jamming an arm into Chiro's side playfully.

"Good point, Sprx." Chiro laughed, fully joining into the play fight against his brothers, videogame and defending his choice on making a new friend were completely forgotten at this point.

Then the alarm went off. In an instance everyone was back on their feet and watching as Gibson looked at the main computer. The computer showed the outside of a computer store was the sorce of the distress signal.

"What is it Gibson?" Antauri asked.

"It appears to be a- a wolf?" Gibson gasped, confusion lacing his tone.

"A wolf? Like a werewolf?" Otto squeaked.

Gibson zoomed in more and the new and closer image showed that the perpetrator was a person dress up as a wolf.

"It's actually a person dress as a wolf! Whatever he is doing- he is destroying all the computers."

"We better straighten this guy out. Monkeys mobilize!"

()()()()()()()()

In the computer store, The Wolf was continuing it assault. Broken glass and bits of computer were decorating the floors already, but there was still so much more damage that could be done. As it was about to destroy the rest of the computers, a lightingbolt shot at it's hands, signaling that help had arrived.

"Hey you! Cut that out!" Chiro exclaimed.

Wolf turned around shrunk back when it saw the Hyperforce ready to fight. However, the Wolf turned and got ready to fight too.

"Whoa this is the first time in a while that we get to fight a regular human." Otto said.

Sprx rolled his eyes. "Yeah, a human who is a freaky weirdo!"

"Sprx!"

"What? We don't have to worried about it. If its human than this guy doesn't understand us anywa-"

"Actually Redhead, I do understand you and the other little monkeys." The wold shouted, suddenly launching a piece of glass at the team.

Chiro and the team jumped away quickly, taking only a moment to register the glass shattering the floor where they once stood.

"So, what? You speak primate?" Chiro smirked, "Then hear this: Chiro Spearo!"

Lightning cracked from Chiro's palm and launched itself back at the Wolf. The Wolf gasped and lept out of the way of the spear, only to crash down onto a shattered computer upon landing. It hissed unhappily, but pulled itself back to its feet to continue the fight.

"I can speak primate and wolf. And you need to take your little pets and yourself out of here Monkey-boy. I'm trying to do something here!" It scoffed, inspecting its now bleeding arm.

"You're the one to talk Fleabag! You are destroying these computers for no reason." Chiro retorted angrily.

"Well first it's none of your business. Second, now I got a new thing to break: your face!"

Chiro bit back a sneer. Now he was annoyed, but it sounded like this wolf's fight was just with him now. That was fine with him.

"You guys stay back, I'll handle this puppy!" Chiro said, rushing at full speed towards his opponent.

The wolf tossed their arms up to block the first few kicks from Chiro before tossing another wall of glass at the hero. Chiro hissed in pain as the small shards swiped passed his face, but he would worry about any injuries later. He took a few seconde to regain his composure and was soon back to swinging at the wolf. As Chiro tried to punch Wolf, it jumped up high and slashed at the cables of three overhanging lights, all directly above Chiro.

"Chiro look out!"

Chiro quickly dodged them and threw a broken Keyboard at the wolf. The Wolf narrowly dodged it and jump on a table.

"I don't have time for this. So!" The Wolf growled, suddenly grabbing a large computer and hurling it at the store's fire extinguisher system. Foam shot out of the now broken extinguisher, effectively coating the Monkey Team long enough that when the foam cleared out, Wolf was gone, and the computers were all left destroyed.

Upon returning to the Super Robot, the Monkey Team had two new agendas that desperately needed tending first and most important one being to get Chiro cleaned up and the second being getting him patched up.

"I'm fine, team. We should be going after the Wolf!" Chiro muttered, disappointment and annoyance ever evideng in his tone.

"Hey don't look so down Kid. You'll get that wolf next time." Sprx said calmly. "But first, you need a bath. Human kids don't clean as easily as metal monkeys do."

"Yeah I know. I just can't believe how easily he got away! I could've taken him!" Chiro went on.

"Well we could've help you, Chiro." Novs reminded him, grabbing a towel from the nearby supply closet and tossing it to him. "Come on. Go get yourself cleaned up so we can get a bandaid or something on those cuts."

Chiro caught the towel and angrily muttered to himself as he trudged over towards the robot"s bathroom, specially installed for the team's only human. He felt equal parts angry, frustrated, and humiliated for going from the brave hero from this morning, back to the human kid who still got bossed around by his guardians.

"Hey, I know what will cheer you up, kid." Sprx called after him. "Hows about we head down to that arcade you love so much after we get done here?"

Chiro felt a small smile play at the corner of his lips and he nodded his head. "Thanks, Sprx. That sounds great."

He was about to enter the bathroom, but he had a feeling one of the monkeys had one mpre quip to toss into the conversation.

"Just a moment ago, you seemed more determined to go after the wolf than to be off playing those mindless video games in the arcade." Antauri pointed out suddenly, his own small smile forming as Chiro's did.

"Hey those mindless video games happened to be very fun. Plus, they can teach you some new moves that can kick bad guys butts-"

"JUST GO TAKE A SHOWER ALREADY AND WE'LL GO!" Nova cut in.

With a laugh, Chiro hurried off to do just that. So if a normal human and a busted up shop was the least of the town's worries then it was the least of his too-

Then the alarm went off.

With a groan, Chiro raced back to the team. The foam and broken glass was beginning to irritate his skin, but his renewed desire to fight the wolf again being reignited distracted him from all that. Joining the team at the super computer, Chiro anxiously watched as Gibson checked their readings for the cause of the attack alarm. It was staticing a bit, a quick adjustment made it clear to see what was happening.

Chiro felt his heart leap into his throat when he saw an all too familiar wolf theif pop up onto the monitor.

"It's the Wolf thief! This time he is breaking all the video games in the arcade and stealing its money." Gibson exclaimed.

"Then it looks like I get my rematch after all. Let's teach this wolf-thief a lesson. Monkeys Mobilize!"

Hope you all like it!
