In the early months of 2018, Charlotte spent her time in the newly relocated region of City 24 taking up work shifts and building her credibility to the Combine Regime. She is a rather low profile citizen during these times.
April
Starving, dry-mouthed and living under a poor diet, Charlotte stumbled into a local bar under the name 'The Kitsune' of which she began to lazily read along the menu. Unknown to her rather unobserving eyes, a rather warm, Canadian accented "Hello!" came from her left. Charlotte quickly turned over her shoulder, and immediately looked towards the woman standing behind the bar. "Hi, just looking.. Rather starving at the moment.. Could I have a slice of bread?" The woman behind the bar spoke back "I can't have that, no. I can't have someone starving in my store." The woman behind the desk ran to the back, leaving Charlotte on her own. Time passed briefly and she would come from the back room, holding a bowl of vegetable soup, and a warm, full loaf of bread, to which she handed to Charlotte with a heartwarming smile. Charlotte would look at the woman open-mouthed, rather surprised "This? For me?" --- "All for you." the woman replied. "I'm Claire." Charlotte is eating a piece of bread she dipped into the soup, she looks up. "I'm Charlotte."
May
Its dark, dust falls and rises in the air. The glistening gleam of light refracts through the window, beaming into the interior. A door swings open with a piercing creak as air rushes into the room following a humanoid figure. The sound of a flicker and a flash of light that floods the room, the figure walks to a metal lever and grasps it with a hard yank. A green sign flickers outside, reading OPEN! Charlotte stands behind the bar, waiting for her first customer.
A city wide curfew is instated and citizens are huddled into random apartments to be searched. An officer decides to choose the lowest tier citizen in the room, taking Charlotte with them. Within a blur moment of struggle a rush of wind and a sensation of flight takes over Charlotte's body. She hits the ground outside of the RDC as glass from a second story apartment falls with her. She rushed to the CMU and put under anesthesia...Citizen Information

...Time has passed and a woman with splints stiffening her legs, bearing crutches under her arms shambles out of the CMU.
June
It's the first of June and slow footsteps with plastic clanks could be heard. A biolock opens and a neon sign flickers on; OPEN! It seems Charlotte, still suffering from her crippling injuries has decided to take the initiative to attempt to work for the first time in three weeks since the RDC incident.2019

Wandering the streets of the downtrodden industrial sector of City 24, she reminisces about her past life in the inner city. Old friends separated, missing, or deceased. Charlotte finds herself a job as a Barmaid at the Grotto after buying herself a drink. Its a slow first night; alone, with herself and her Vodka.
February 3rd - 5th
After working the bar Charlotte would come across many faces, one of those being a 'William Hallway.' An old man with no money to afford a drink. The man would come to audit the pub she had been working at. As usual, Charlotte was the only one of the shift, as her hiring manager has not been seen since he had hired her... Charlotte, having never heard of the so called 'Breenists' reluctantly would not allow this man to search the bar. A Vortigaunt would witness the situation as William had taken a fist to Charlotte's gut, immediately followed with the Vortigaunt picking William up, throwing him against the wall. This would result in the man targetting Charlotte, having the Civil Protection re-educate her in a dirty corner of the street. Knocked on the ground, kicked in the ribs, and stomped on, as William watched. The next day; targeted again. Now being aggressively searched by the man, a person unknown jumps from around the corner, shooting William through the head and chest. Charlotte screamed- nearly tripping over the disfigured corpse to grab her luggage. She runs off.
After being reunited with Claire, Charlotte ran with mixed emotions. It did not feel significant, yet it felt like It should have been. Charlotte was proud to see how far Claire had gone since they last spoke- yet still remaining sore of the sudden abandonment. Time will tell how this story turns out.
The sign outside of the Grotto lights up a neon green... OPEN! Two customers walk into the bar. Charlotte takes their order and heads into the back to meet a somewhat expected surprise. Everything is gone! It seems that the bar had been shut down. Charlotte apologises and asks everyone to leave. She leaves the building locking the doors. Now out of a job she roams the streets.

 | Claire Lavoie She's been looking after and out for me ever since we met at the Kitsune. She practically took me under her wing and gave me a new life. She has been teaching me how to cook, provided me with a job, and continues to surprise me. I have so much respect for this woman, God I love her. As I continue living my life... I wonder what happened to you. Where did you go?
|  | Cody Stanford "Sharlee, get well soon... I know things are hard on you, but I know that you're strong. You'll get through anything life throws at you! I'll always admire you." A rather odd man, in my opinion, but fun to have as a coworker. Definitely enjoy his company and appreciate his kindness. He's rather sweet. |
 | Ophelie Latourelle Ophelie is a kind girl. She seems quiet at times, but I like to hang around with her at The Pint on occasion. I appreciate the kind gestures she's given me, like when she gave me that apple. |
| Émille Émille is a lovely man. I thank him for showing me the other side of the city, although it may be undesirable... I won't forget talking for hours on that old-world car hood. I don't know what to think of you. I guess I didn't understand you when you told me you couldn't be around anymore. I'm shocked to learn the truth, and quite frankly... I don't know what to think of you. I don't understand what you're a part of, but it's outside of my world. "I'm so sorry, I don't know what you are... I'm told that people like you are terrorists.-"
I don't know if I can trust you anymore, seen as you clearly don't trust me enough to carry a device for my own safety... I miss the Emille I met all that time ago. Where has he gone?
"Emile! You're just- You're scaring me is what you're doing!" |
 | Thomas Schmidt 'Mister Thomas' "Cheers to strange people!" Thomas is quite the gentleman. He's super lovely to have around in Little Italy as one of my regulars. Very polite. |  | Gus One of my two bosses at Little Italy. I wouldn't consider him a friend of mine.. But I have to work with him. I get an odd feeling about him sometimes and I don't particularly like it. |
 | William Hallway I can't say I'm glad about what happened to you. But. | Eleanor Marchand After moving into Industrial 24, one of the notable faces I have met earlier on has been a local CMU worker by the name of Eleanor Marchand. I had met her when I was reintroduced to Claire at the CMU. It seems that the two are very close friends.
I can't be mad at you. It's not your fault. I'm trying to fight my emotions but its difficult. If its what she wants- then.. Well..
