"NAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH. Maybe I'll find something I can wear later, if I want. But, for right now, I have to get to the docks!" Then, he started running toward the direction the man had pointed in. Apparently, this was the beginning of the time he was going to have fun on Earth.

Soon, he arrived at the docks. Looking around, he saw that little girl wasn't around there. "Huh. She must have gotten lost." Then, he looked around for an available ship. Then, suddenly, he saw someone standing on a dock by himself. Walking over to him, Heater asked, "Hey, can you take me to Papaya island?"

The guy turned toward him. "Sure. And, since it's been slow for me lately, I'll even take you there for free." Heater grinned. "Great!" Alittle bit later, when they were ready, the ship set off for Papaya island. Hopefully, this wouldn't be too long a journey.

Nachi was sleeping in a tree somewhere... having gotten lost, and then getting tired, she leaped in to the tree and went to sleep... Don't ask why she chose to sleep in a tree... not even the writer of this post understands how Nachi's mind works fully.

The leaves around Nachi would shuffle a little as she slipped from the branch she was on... landing with a thud on the ground... she kept on sleeping... seemingly undisturbed by the shock of hitting the Earth like that.

A few minutes later, though... "Nguh..." Pushing herself up from the floor, Nachi opened her eyes and squinted... "Wha...?" She blinked a couple of times. "Oh yeah... I went to sleep..."

Pushing herself from the floor, Nachi turns and sees a squirrel... the squirrel stares at Nachi... who stares back... Suddenly, as the squirrel turns to bolt, Nachi shoots a ki blast at it... cooking the thing on the spot. "This won't be enough... but I'm hungry..."

Walking over to the squirrel, Nachi picks it up, and peels the furry skin off from it as she walks down the street... before biting in to it for a little snack. She doesn't even notice all the disgusted looks she's getting from passers by... she's just eating and walking.

Coming across a person who hadn't noticed her yet, Nachi tugs on their sleeve... "'scuse me. Where's Papa Island?" The person turns around, and then winces at the sight of what the little girl is carrying... and eating... Nachi innocently munches while awaiting an answer.

"Uh... I don't know no Papa Island... but Papaya... Island? ...is that way... you take a ship." The person just answered, and didn't try questioning the girl as to why she was alone, eating a roasted squirrel, etcetera... since they noticed she also happened to have a monkey tail... People with monkey tails, even children, are known as dangerous to a lot of humans.
Nachi just said thanks and walked off in the direction she was pointed... while throwing the meatless carcass of the squirrel over her shoulder, to land on the ground right beside the person who just helped her...

Alittle bit later, the ship Heater was on arrived at the docks of East City. Stepping out onto the docks, Heater sighed. "Well, now that I've signed up, I guess I should go train or something. I have the strangest feeling that I need to get stronger, for some reason..."

Then, he left the docks, and, began walking through the city. "Maybe I should check out the wilderness of this Planet. See what it's like, and, maybe do some training."

Then, he broke off into a run, heading toward the part that was outside the city limits. Alittle bit later, he had left the city, to go check out the great outdoors.

Cacao stepped off the bus, having endured a few hours of people screaming about sports and such. But at least that was finally over, the bus having arrived in the eastern capital. Any annoyance disappeared, replaced with a bright happiness that filled Cacao's young he-..and then a soccer ball smacked her right upside the head.

Ignoring the slight bit of pain that accompanied being pelted in the head with a soccer ball kicked by a professional, young Cacao continued on her way. She knew that she'd find some way to get to Papaya Island within the city limits, but she didn't quite know that she had no idea where said means of traveling was. Oh well...she'd realize it soon enough.

She paused as she came across a sign near the corner of a city street, taking a quick glance at it. It was a mildly detailed map of the city, showing her just where she was at the center of the hellish sports frenzy of a metropolis. Unfortunately, it didn't show the East City docks for some peculiar reason...

She sighed, wondering why such an important section of a city wouldn't make it on a map of said city. But she shrugged it off, realizing that she'd just have to find a different map...or scour the city's borders on her own. That was until she noticed another sign hanging just above that.

The sign pointed down the road, a little bit of writing showing nest to the arrow. What was written was pretty simple and easy for anyone to see if they were actually looking at the damn thing. And what was written was exactly what Cacao needed at that point in time.
"East City Docks."

She simply smiled and took off in the direction the arrow pointed, running as fast as she could down the sidewalk. Sure, it'd probably be a safety hazard considering how fast she was moving and the fact that there were people walking down the street, but it didn't really matter to her. She wanted to make sure that she wouldn't miss a boat headed for Papaya Island.

Leaping over a poor bastard who had been minding his own business, Cacao darted across the street and onto another section of sidewalk. She shifted to the side, dodging another random pedestrian. Then she jumped once more, her foot scraping against the top of an old man's head and sending his toupee flying.

Post by Cacao on Feb 6, 2010 18:06:40 GMT -5
Cacao stumbled a bit on the landing thanks to the toupee throwing off her balance, but she managed just fine. Sure, there was a second or two where she believed she was going to be introduced to the sidewalk version of road rash. That second or two didn't matter as she tore down the walkway.

It was about then that Cacao noticed a rather large trash container tipped over in the middle of the sidewalk, laying on its side so that it was actually a pretty large obstacle. Moreso than the standard human being in terms of height. But that wouldn't be much of a problem considering things.

Post by Cacao on Feb 6, 2010 18:22:04 GMT -5
She noticed a taxi parked right near the tipped container, figuring out near immediately how she'd get pass the obstacle in her way. She slowed for a split second before leaping towards the cab, landing right atop it. Cacao bent her knees once more and jumped onto the side of the obstruction before leaping once more.

Nearly losing her balance as she landed atop a car that was actually in motion, but she managed to stay...well...on the vehicle. Granted, she was hanging on for dear life, but at least she was still ON the damn thing. The driver had noticed her new passenger, immediately screaming in horror and turning the car sharply to the right.

Cacao flung herself off the car, spinning wildly through the air. She managed to catch sight of the vehicle she had leapt onto crash into a fire hydrant, but that wasn't really something she needed to worry about...She had to figure out how the hell she was going to keep herself from hitting the road at the wrong angle.

She slammed into the hood of a car, quite a bit softer a landing than the road directly in front of said car. And despite a crap load of pain, she had escaped relatively unscathed, not a single bone broken. Though Cacao did give herself a quick look over to make sure that was truly the case.

As she moved to get to her feet, the man driving the car slammed his foot on the break, bringing the automobile to a sudden stop. This, of course, flung Cacao into the air once more, head over heels this time. She could swear that her luck was only getting worse...

Pressing a hand down on top of the car that she had been flung over, Cacao flipped backwards. She landed surprisingly well on top of the truck ahead of it, letting out a sigh of relief. She couldn't take much more traveling through the air at high speed from car to car when she couldn't control where she was going.

Post by Cacao on Feb 6, 2010 20:56:31 GMT -5
Looking ahead, she noticed that she couldn't quite see the sea yet from where she stood. Of course, this fact was accompanied by another. That being the fact that the truck was coming upon a downhill section of the road. If she were to wind up being flung off a vehicle at high speed high enough in the air, she'd probably hit the road hard enough to leave an impression in it...

Thankful for the fact that the truck driver hadn't noticed he had an unwelcome passenger riding on top of his truck, Cacao sat down. Sure, it may not be the most comfortable of surfaces to rest on, but it was better than nothing. Unfortunately, she didn't know just how steep an incline the hill ahead was going to be...
