Doreen was making her way through the city, from tree to tree. Walking on the ground seemed rather mundane when there was a group of trees. Her grumpy uncle would remind her to get her head out of the trees and act normal. She was anything but normal. She was the friendly neighborhood Squirrel Girl. It was her duty to help people with everyday problems. It paired well with going on missions with Jeff.
She hummed her personal theme song, set to the tune of classic Spider-Man when she spotted an old target of grumpy uncle. Her movements froze as she stared at the woman. Hey eyes peeked around the trunk as she tilted her head to the side. There was something off about the woman when someone looked closely. She whispered gently into the ear of her best friend, Tippy. The little squirrel nodded her head as she took off.
Doreen took out her phone as she tapped gently on the screen. She took another peek to double check who she had seen. Tippy gave her signature leap in the air. It was all the confirmation that she need. Doreen carefully tapped as she encoded the message, just encase someone was around.
Uncle Jeffy do you recall the red head from the other night? I saw her. I'm going to say hello.
Hello code for follow and red head is the target or she is someone of interest. I forget which.
Sometimes our missions blend together sometimes. Anyways gotta get going, check in soon Rhona, right? that is her name, right? Well these nuts ain't going to follow themselves.
She tried to encoded it. She realized that she broke it as she told him what was happening. She would get an earful later. For now, she was off as she stayed in the trees as she blended in. She pulled a hood over her face. It was game time.

Rhona left the BoM house didn't know that she was being followed. She wasn't so sure that anyone would follow her and once the grumble of her stomach told her she needed to eat she asked the cab driver to stop for some food.
"Can you stop somewhere that serves food. I am hungry and I will get you something."
The cab driver obliged and pulled into a fast food restaurant taking the short path for the drive-thru. Rhona ordered and the amount of the order boggled the driver's mind. She had made the order seem like she was feeding a bunch of people.
Jeff texted Doreen back, 'Doreen who are following again? A red headed girl?!? That might not be the best idea but you can take care of yourself. Just be careful if this is who I think you are referring to and it is. She has never really been outside. Take it easy and don't get caught. Tell me where she goes.'
After a moment in the drive-thru they were moving again.

Doreen saw Rhona get into the cab as she jumped from her tree. She dashed across the street as she hide behind a newspaper stand. The following would get a little trickery. Tippy jumped onto the roof of the cab as she hung on for dear life. The squirrels had a system down for this kind of thing. Doreen raced up the side of a building. Roof jumping was not as easy as trees however she could do it. She kept her eyes on the cab as she turned a quick corner. She was curious as to where the girl would be going. She tilted her head when it was a fast food joint. She checked her phone as Jeff answered back. She smiled as he trusted her with this impromptu mission.
It's the girl you told me about once when you had too much beer. She was the one that you tried to help. We are like birds of a feather. Oh she just went to the burger place on tenth. Now I'm hungry too. Wanna get a burger with me after this? Gotta go, she is on the move again.
Oh and Tippy says hello and wants to know if you got those acorn seeds yet?
Just like that, Doreen was off to see where this girl was going. She backed up as she leapt across the street, using poles to help get across the great divide. It would be easier if she could have her tail fully out. She had a feeling that she was already drawing some attention to herself. Her claws dug into the side of a building as she slid down. She raced to the next building. The cab with the squirrel was in her line of sight.

Rhona wasn’t an oblivious person and having the small thump on the roof of the cab followed by skittering sound was odd. After the stop though she was using the drivers mirrors to watch the streets and casually peering out the windows and caught sight of someone scaling a building. She kept a casual eye on it and once she saw them again she decided her cab ride was over and she would walk from there. She had him stop, took her food, and started down an alley.
The response that came was one of warning.
~*”Doreen there is a reason for everything. She’s not herself and could end up doing something that you may regret. Stop following her before she notices. Yes I have the seed.”*~
Rhona took an alley after paying the driver and then she climbed the fire escape swiftly and as she did she topped the building and sat down with the several bags of food. She stopped and waited for the person following her as she started to unwrap and eat a burger.
“You can come out. I won’t hurt you.”

Doreen stopped in her tracks as she watched the girl come out of the cab. She hunched low as her eyes never left her target. They grew larger when she noticed her climbing the fire escape. She must have been spotted. She groaned slightly for not being more careful. She dashed backwards, hiding behind a ventilation shaft. Her phone was pulled out as she frantically typed.
So no on that burger?
I will let Tippy know. She will be super happy. Damn, she spotted me..... I'm okay, I think I will engage. Trust me cause I will be fine. It's hard to beat the power of the squirrel. After all, we are super cute. :smiley face::wink:
She tucked her phone away as she steadied her breath. She heard the wrapper being pulled back as the smell of food filled her nose. Her stomach rumbled as she tried to hush it. She peeked around the corner, pulling her hood a little more over her face. Part of her braid rounded her neck a little. Tippy was huffing as she peeked over the ledge. Her poor friend had rushed to keep up with this girl.
Her mouth watered as she saw Rhona take another bite. The words of Jeff rang in her head. There was a moment of hesitation before the need for food drove her out. Bits of her tail stuck out as she slowly made her way over to the girl. "Well, I have been keeping my eye on you for some time now. Who else knows you are here?"

Rhona was confused about the reason she was being followed and why anyone would know she was here. She finished the burger and tossed one to the pursuer and took another out and unwrapped it. She looked up at the woman and considered her actions. They included eating right now.
“Why have you been watching me? I mean yes if you ask the guy I’m fond of then I’m dead sexy and hotness defined. His words not mine.”
She took a bite of her burger, chewed, swallowed, and took a drink of the stuff they called Dr. Pepper. She looked at this person.
“I don’t know who would be watching me. I don’t remember anyone who would want to watch me me to begin with.”
She unwrapped another burger and tossed Doreen one and thought of something to ask her.
“What’s your name?”

Doreen stopped in her tracks as Rhona talked about a guy that she fancied. She unwrapped the burger as she took a bite. She licked some of the grease off her upper lip. She sighed as it was exactly what she needed. She quickly finished as she half listened to the other girl. It was natural that there was a lot of questions.
"You looked like someone my grumpy uncle knows. I wanted to see if it was true." She cocked her head as she looked Rhona up and down, "I suppose I can see why he says that."
She stretched a little as Tippy crawled her way over to her. She bent down to pick up her friend, more of her tail started to release from its prison. She gave some of the bread to Tippy as she finished off the burger. She gave up as she pulled her tail out in all it's glory. She caught another burger.
"Friends call me Dee which is short for Doreen. What is your name? Do you live close to here?"

Rhona watched the woman as she ate and gave the explanation of what this person she referred to as a grumpy uncle thought and other pertinent facts. Todd was a subject that caused a flash of something she didn’t know what it was but it made her feel good. When the person finished she saw this new person had finished her food and tossed her another burger. She nearly leapt the entire distance when Tippy crawled up and Doreen picked up the creature. She stayed put as it was one of those creatures she noticed from before when they drove by a wooded area. Doreen supplied her name and she decided that was fair and would give her own.
“Doreen....I’ll remember that. I’m Rhona. That’s all I know about me.”
She grabbed another burger and started to eat it and tossed Doreen another just in case she needed it.
“I don’t know where I live. I am currently billeted in a large house outside the city. They seem interested in assisting me with something.”
She looked at the creature and that’s when she saw the tail. This person had the same appendage as the creature on her shoulder. She stowed the information and finished her burger. She grabbed another.
“Your rear appendage is the same as the creature you allow to sit on your shoulder. What kind of creature is it? Are you it’s creator or is it a comrade?”
It seemed someone had opened the Pandora’s box of questions now.

Dee finished another burger and started in on her second one. It was hard work keeping up with the car. She was pretty proud of herself for a job well done until she was caught. She would have to work that for next time. It was probably because she was not wearing her suit.
She sat on the ground as the girl answered her questions and had a few of her own. She smiled as she gave Tippy a bit more to eat. She wondered how much information to give this girl. Her past was probably okay. Jeff would say otherwise.
"Tippy here is a squirrel. She is my comrade. We talk a lot about stuff. I was born part squirrel. Dr. Jackson said that he thinks it came from me being exposed to something while I was in my mom's stomach."
She started in on another burger as she waited for more questions. "So your fond of a guy, what's his name? Where did you live before here?"

Rhona took in all the information and nodded. The woman seemed to be truthful and she actually wanted to know more about the woman and her squirrel. She liked this interacting with people and their differences were the most interesting thing about them. All other people seemed to avoid other people but this person had sought her out.
"The tail is nice and since the squirrel is your comrade it seems that you two are fine with me. Let us continue this somewhere warm so we don't get cold although I don't feel the cold as much as other people. The guy I like is nice and he treats me nicely. I am fond of him."
She ate more and then took another drink of her soda and motioned for her to follow. Rhona was not one to keep people waiting for her but this meant she had to choose to go either to the place she stayed or another place they could be warm at and it would allow her comrade in.
"Let's find a place to sit and eat before it gets cold."

The bushy tail wrapped around her as Dee smiled. She puffed her chest out with the compliment about her most stunning feature. She cracked her neck as she watched the girl closely. The corners of her mouth turned slightly down when she didn't get too much information from about this boy. She was curious, more so why grumpy uncle feared her.
"I hear that being treated nicely and fond of each other is a good start. Honestly, romantic relationships never really interested me. Plus most people are not always sure what to do when they see a tail or get intimidated that I am pretty strong."
She blinked a few times as she shrugged her shoulders. She was not all that cold. She stood up as she brushed the dirt off her pants and hands. Tippy climbed up on to her shoulder as she walked towards Rhona. Her hand slipped to her phone. While the girl was harmless at the moment, Jeff still needed to know where they were headed.
"I'm not that cold but I am always down for eating a little more. I think there might be a place close by. Unless you have something else in mind?"
