Charri stepped off the train onto the platform and looked out at the apartment district. Since she wasn't allowed to fly yet in the city limits yet, she had to use her hoverboard and use mass transit to get to the different districts. Outside the main city center where the Time Nest was located, there was the apartment district, the restaurant district, and the shopping district, though the items and combat gear shops were located around the hero statue in the city center.

Charri rode her hoverboard to her apartment and began the long walk up to her apartment. She was excited at her new prospects; now that she had been called for the special mission, she was no longer a Time Patroller in training, so she was granted a few liberties that she didn't have access to previously. Full fledged Time Patrollers got priority access to equipment, so now, when she wanted to get senzu beans, she got first pick. Same with access to the gravity chambers, and because she was on special assignment, she moved to the front of the line of even that list.

But what Charri was most excited about was the fact that she no longer had to wear a uniform when working. She could wear her own clothing, whether it be casual outfits that made it easy to move in, weighted training clothes, or even special armors that she could have made at the tailor's. The only thing that was still mandatory was a way to contact her, but that didn't necessarily mean a scouter.

Charri entered her apartment, and after closing the door, she started stripping out of the Saiyan armor and tossing it in the corner. She fully intended to get them cleaned and returned to the Patrol so it could be used by another new Patroller, but right now, she just wanted to get into her new outfit.

She threw on her dark blue tank top, and her baggy pants with the belt with pocket in it, which could hold capsules. And after getting her socks on, she put on her boots; light brown with a dark brown tip. And over that, she put on her blue Capsule Corp jacket, which was cut off at the midriff. She smiled at her reflection, thinking that this jacket looked better on her than it ever did on Trunks.

And finally, she picked up a pair of sunglasses. These glasses were custom made, with a communication device and a head's up display for anything she needed that didn't require ki sensing, like knowing her account balance or accessing the Conton City internet. All she needed to do was place her thumb and index finger on the frame by her eye to activate either function; the left side was the computer side, and the right was the communication device.

Tossing her keys into her pocket, Charri ran out the door and ran directly into a friend of her's, Sparkle the Majin. Sparkle was a blue skinned Majin, who styled her… hair into pigtails. She wore glasses, and though they were prescription lenses, they did have the same upgrades Charri's sunglasses. And currently, she was wearing an outfit that seemed similar to the villain Zangya.

"Where's the fire, Charri?" Sparkle asked. She was a full-fledged Time Patroller and had been for some time, and had taken the time to supplement Charri's training, as well as introducing the Saiyan girl to a LOT of different foods.

"I was just made a full-fledged Patroller! I'm doing that special mission we've been hearing about!" Charri said excitedly.

Sparkle smiled. "And you wanted to start using some of your perks, huh?"

"Yeah," Charri said. "I was actually heading back into the city to train under some of the masters."

"Oh? Who were you thinking about?" Sparkle asked.

"Krillin, Yamcha, Tenshinhan and Piccolo, to start off," Charri said. "Though I do want to train under all the Earth heroes. Most were either really old or dead by the time I could start training. My great grandpa and Vegeta had fallen apart, and only Piccolo was still young."

"Well, good luck to you," Sparkle said. "Some of their training is brutal."

"Yeah, well, I'm going to need some brutal training if I'm going to get up to Peparia's speed. I'm going to need to if I'm going to face some of her enemies," Charri said. She turned around from her friend and excitedly made her way down the stairs. Things were going to be fun from now on.

Author's Note: Sparkle, as well as any other Time Patrollers that Charri will interact with, will have her pictures on my deviantart as soon as I get around to taking them. You can find me there as HitokiriAkins, my old handle.
