Time moves on, Charlotte trains her transformation ability further, increasing the time that she is able to keep a stable form.
Even keeping her form stable while eating lunch, while eating dinner and while eating snacks throughout the night… her calorie intake is higher.
Having figured out throughout the day that she has super speed, strength and that she can go invisible, so she trains that too.
Achieving some results, able to keep her invisibility while walking throughout the house/apartment, unnoticed by the servants or her family.
Listening in on the secret conversations of the maids and her dad, the worry that her brother has for her, which he will never show openly because of his pride.
Learning about the relationships between the maids and William and how they interact with each other behind the scenes.
Learning that her maids actually do care about her and thinks that she is cute and responsible, they consider Charlotte a role model for others and themselves.
Smiling to herself while invisibly stalking the maids in her chameleon-woman form, she feels happy about the nice maids she has.
The next day rolls by: Sunday October 10th, the last day before they are back to school, or it would have been if there was not a national holiday during Monday and they have the day off.
Charlotte wakes up like normal having secretly replaced her bedding and having slept… quite badly.
Worrying about not being human, not being able to hug Chad and David anymore. What if they hate her for not being human anymore?
But the worries fade away in the morning, or rather they hide from her while she prepares for the day.
Having decided to go out today to further test her abilities, of course after breakfast and with some stuff in a backpack in case of emergencies.
Having talked to her dad after breakfast about her feelings and that she is considering getting some more hobbies or doing some more stuff alone.
Which is just an excuse for her to go out today to disappear in some climbing gym or whatever else she finds that she can use to hide her tracks.
And he agrees as long as she keeps herself safe and is followed by some people that can keep an eye out for her, she agrees having no intentions to actually go through with it.
So she leaves and explores Farlong city for places to secretly train, finding nothing before she plans to scout out Chillbring county of Farlong state.
The region that had a police commander and a deputy mayor that is now in trial for way too much crime, like an annoying amount to list…
And not like they can even plead innocent as the evidence is way too solid and any judge that dares give them light sentences will destroy their own careers.
So Chillbring region is one such place that is currently chaotic enough for her to do secret training.
Scouting out Chillbring and finding many empty buildings, some formerly used for illegal operations by the local police.
And some were used by government supported gangs to traffic drugs and guns into Farlong city.
Finding the place that she wants to use she quickly finds a local movie theater and disappears from her guards pretending to be watching movies.
While she is actually entering one of the warehouses that the local police used, looking at the steel beams throughout the roof and in the brick walls.
Exploring the basements/sewers paths, finding traces of narcotics and empty bullet casings, this place was obviously not used by law abiding citizens.
Returning to the first floor, and receiving a message from her guards, which she replies: “Watching a movie, text me later.” and turning off her phone.
The “naked” Chameleon-woman form of Charlotte walks back and forth in the warehouse, thinking of how to test her abilities.
Before she decides to try and climb the brick wall and she succeeds with incredible ease, like her hands and feet can stick to surfaces without needing to grasp it with her claws.
Slowly crawling across the ceiling and trying to run along the walls, having a great time pretending to be a ninja, which is one of the best things according to Chad and David.
They both have an odd love for Ninjas, Ninjas above samurais, above pirates, above vikings and even above knights.
Testing out if she has acid spit, so she spits on the wall… and nothing happens. Making her feel kind of bad, like she is a bad girl who just goes around spitting on walls and stuff.
Testing out her chameleon tongue, which as you might expect; is able to stretch far away grabbing a brick and she pulls it violently back straight towards her face!
Scaring her into dodging, but her tongue pulls it in a straight line towards her face, no dodging can help as she does not correctly receive the brick and it enters her mouth.
Looking oddly at the wall and feeling bad about her idiocy, she bites into the brick destroying it; feeling better about herself by breaking it until she realizes it tastes like brick…
Or rather it tastes like bad powder flour mixed with dirt, paint and cleaning solution without any biologic semblance to food, just dusty painted dirt rock soup in her mouth…
So she throws up in a corner of the warehouse, glad that nobody saw her blunder or her puking afterwards.
