Getting Started (Talia)

Talia was having a less than wonderful day. Last night her partner had been injured in the line of duty and while he was said to make a full recovery, that still left her partnerless and she wasn't allowed to be partnerless very often due to her small size. She needed some form of muscle with her if she was going to even try to uphold the laws of the city. A groan slipped past her lips as she put both of her front paws on the door to the guards meeting room and shoved it hard to get it to open wide enough so she could step inside. The door closed behind her and she slowly trudged across the room to look at the sheet of paper that was posted stating who was working with who that day.

Her blue eyes scanned the paper that she usually didn't have to check due to having only one cat who would willingly work with her without throwing a fit. She found her name on the list and looked at the name that was next to it. Vino? That was new, must be a new recruit. Perfect, just what she wanted to do after losing her partner for the next few weeks. Train a newbie. It wouldn't take long for her to see how he handled her small size. That obstacle usually got breached pretty quick when she met with other guards.

Her eyes scanned the room but she didn't see anyone that was new and she gave a small hiss towards the group of guards she particularly wasn't fond of. A moment later, the door opened again and a king cheetah stepped inside. She'd never seen him before so she assumed that he must be Vino, the new recruit. Groaning a bit, she pushed herself to her paws and headed towards him as he looked around a little lost. "You must be Vino. I'm Talia Charo. I'll be your partner for a few weeks. Show ya the ropes and all that jazz." She explained, making sure to keep her sarcasm out of her voice as much as possible. She waited for him to speak, waited for those words about her size to come about as they always did.
