_Worldly Inn - 5:00 AM_

Like most nights, Terra had a good night's sleep, and woke to a rather sudden alarm. Under the pillow that she slept under, was a small alarm that made noises and vibrated heavily to get her to wake up. The noises could only be so loud, as they would disturb the paying guests if played any louder. She knew that she couldn't have anyone, especially the employees, get alarmed and check up on her room, so she had to get up and get ready quickly.

Reaching under the pillow, Terra deactivated the alarm with the push of a button, and shoved the device into the pocket of her coat. The young woman then got out of the bed and made the sheets, as to make it seem as if nobody had been there. She had stayed at the Worldly Inn many times before, and was accustomed as to how the housekeeping made the beds. She had a connection at the Inn, which helped her known when she could take the room, and could also redirect the housekeeping to stay away from her unofficial room. She made sure to keep her goggles and mask off until she was outside, as they would no doubt bring attention to her if anyone was up at the hour.

Once she was done with the bed, the young earthbender slipped out of her jacket and sleeping clothes to take a brief shower and clean herself up. She always wore a full set of clothing to bed, in case she needed to leave on the spot or in the middle of the night. She went through her usual routine, the same one that she had been using for a number of years, and was able to slip out of the Inn unnoticed, with the exception of her connection, who always worked the lobby to ensure that Terra and others could get in or out without trouble. Terra gave a nod to the woman at the counter, who nodded back and watched as the earthbender put on a pair of goggles and a breathing mask.

Terra was thankful that she had grown up the way she did. She had reliable connections all over Republic City that could help her get to many places, and she was a master with locks and most technology. Sure, her ways might have been a little thievish, but she knew well that she could have been much worse than she was now. She knew that she had made the best out of her situations, and made herself one of the most civilized scoundrels in the city. With the exception of breaking into hotels and inns almost every night to sleep, she lived a rather honest life. Still worked as a master locksmith, and since she hardly payed for housing or utilities, she had a decent amount of money in her pockets that she didn't enjoy letting go of. Still, she payed for clothes, food, and a few other things, which kept her from having too much money.

As she walked about the cold and misty streets, Terra, found herself wandering closer and closer over to a certain headquarters. She had been a freedom fighter for some time now, taking on missions here and there whenever she was needed. One or two times before it clashed with her job as a locksmith, but she was still able to make everything work out for her. 

When the time came for the band on her wrist to light up and vibrate, much like the alarm she used for waking up early in the mornings, Terra was already nearby the building in which the freedom fighters operated at. It was the perfect place for a hideout like their own, and she had joked on more than one occasion that all it took was a simple costume change and they'd all be superheroes.

terra quickly made her way over to the headquarters building and stepped inside. It was a somewhat run down place, but she knew that she'd probably be living there as well if she didn't have her current deal going on. The young woman stepped into the elevator and pressed the button for the basement. As she stood there, she thought about how she was briefed about being put on a new team. While she didn't know who was going to be on the team, she did know that everyone's skills and tactics would be varied and different, to accomodate all sorts of situations that they could get themselves in. 

With a ding, the doors of the elevator opened, and Terra walked into the headquarters of the freedom fighters. She knew the deal about being briefed and introduced to new people, and looked at the woman at the head of the table before sitting down to the left of the woman. Terra took off the breathing mask from her face, allowing the plethora scars that traced her jaw and lower half of her face to be seen. She looked at the woman to the right of her. "We're being put on a team together, right?" She asked her, making sure that she was where she was supposed to be at.
