Vesara sighed. It had been a long day already and it was barely quarter past one. Twelve hours ago she had just finished getting to sleep after busting up a drug operation. Her alarm clock did her no favors by setting itself to a different time zone when it updated so she had to rush into work that morning. An intern on the force had accidently spilled coffee on her lab report, and a couple of armed thugs decided to rob the jewelry store across the street from where she was having her lunch break. Unable to sit and do nothing, Jessica quickly ran out the backdoor and changed into her costume in the alley. A short time later and the cops were hauling off the bad guys while Vesara profusely apologized to the store owner for throwing them through his front window, despite him being more grateful that she had intervened than concerned about property damage.

Having a bad enough day as it was, Vesara was about to go change and try to make it back to the office without being yelled at when she felt a tug on her trench coat. Assuming she'd gotten snagged on some debris, Vesara let out a huff and turned around to see what had caught her. Expression changing from annoyance to genuine surprise almost instantly, Vesara found herself looking at a small girl eagerly tugging on her coat.

"Excuse me, Ms. Vesara," she said brightly, "could I please have your autograph?"

Smiling at this unexpected occasion, Vesara knelt down to meet her at eye level, "You most certainly may sweetheart. What's your name?"

Overjoyed as she handed her the notepad she quickly responded, "Michelle!"

Signing her name, Vesara handed her back her notebook with a pat on the head, "You be good Michelle. Stay safe." As she watched her excitedly run back to her parents, Vesara stood back up and couldn't help but smile. This might not be such a bad day after all.
