As I dwindle on this newfound revelation, I realized that I can hear sounds of a town, and a rather large one at that, rather, it would be better to call it a city instead, actually, it is just a city, isn’t it. Well, time to find a clothing shop, without being spotted first, while people might not know what I am yet, they could definitely draw a line between mine and Cell’s looks, and he did appear on TV unlike me. So first I think I should scout out the area, maybe try to identify the place first then dash in and go, while the civilians aren’t strong, I don’t want the Z Fighters to know that I exist just yet, so it’s best to act like an expert thief for now. With a little difficulty I manage to spot a place that has people shaped things wearing clothing in their windows, so I assume that that is either a wax museum, or a clothing shop. With some planning I decide that no one should be able to see my speed, after all even Piccolo couldn’t see some of the quicker parts of Cell’s fight with Goku, so even if I don’t go max speed they shouldn’t see me.
With this in mind I fly up to a good angle, then swoop down into the store, crashing into the metal frame of the glass doors, trying to make it look like a really strong wind blew open the door, and then hiding behind a clothes rack, it seems I’m lucky, no one seems to be buying clothes while the worlds under threat after all, and, now that I look at it, it seems that there’s no one manning the counter or anything, so I did all that for nothing, huh. Well, not one to let this opportunity to waste, I head to the teen’s section, as I seem to be around that height and browse for some rather loose clothes, as well as a jacket, I ended up going with baggy, camo pants, with a belt, and a matching long-sleeve camo shirt, and, for extra disguise, I got a thin zipper up hoodie from the men’s section that was small sized so it still covered my face more than a normal hoodie should, but wasn’t too big that I was tripping over it. With this my edgy teen look is complete! Now I can just spout some stuff about having a terrible visage and a mysterious past and no one will be the wiser, and as a plus I can keep my hands hidden in the big pockets, actually, I’m going to get some gloves for that, luckily I don’t have any differences in my hand shape except that my nails are a little pointier than usual so I’m able to find some leather gloves to match the look. Unfortunately, they weren’t selling any masks so I still have to look down constantly if I don’t want my face to be seen, even a simple eye mask would’ve helped, alas, there were none.
A/N: Thanks to SpinyNerd for helping me fix this chapter.
Blob Neutral
Thanks for the chapter
No, thank you for reading!
I take it you liked it? Thanks if so.
This Awkward But I Want To See How This Unfolds :v
Could you tell me what is specifically is awkward? I just want to know for future reference so I can fix it.
@sir You Need Not Worry Mah Boi, The Only Awkward Is Me For Me To Me, What You Wrote Is Good And I Don't See Problems From My Side.
Maybe break it up into smaller paragraphs? That's about all I got for this one.
@SpinyNerd hmmm, yeah, I can see that, I don't naturally write in paragraphs so I have to go back and figure out where I should split them, since I mostly write these on one thought without pause so I don't really think about formal spacing, I'll try add more spacing for future chapters. Idk really know what is a good look in terms of spacing to others so it would be a big help if you could keep telling me on future chapters so I can figure out when I'm doing good enough.
For this chapter for example, I would recommend the additional spacing right before the protagonist makes the observation that he did all the sneaking around for nothing; splitting the paragraph into a stealth section and a fashion section.
@SpinyNerd Is this edit good?
It is an improvement.
Only just though to mention this now: But I think that the "People shaped things" that you are referring to in this chapter is called a Mannequin.
@SpinyNerd Yes, I knew that when writing, but if it was a wax museum it would be wax statues, not mannequins, so I used that to set up the joke-thing.
