Amidst the never-ending hustle of Central City, there were hundreds if not thousands of poor chaps trying to make a name for themselves within the streets. You'd sneeze and somebody snapped up your feet to showcase the newest, smallest capsule; blink again, suddenly you're a stakeholder in the world's biggest flying car industry. Cherry figured that if so many people were doin' it, surely it was at least a little good at getting people's attention. But she was going to be a little...louder.
"I'll do whatever I can--and then do better! And you can't stop me!"
"...So, Cherry. How would you uh...how would you handle the food, over there? Planet Vegeta cuisine's rough."
The female Saiyan, knee-deep in clothes and supplies, couldn't help but roll her eyes a little at her father's well-meaning, yet very—very—frequent queries about her return to Planet Vegeta. Not like they didn't make a lot of sense, but she knew 'reason' wasn't his reason.
"That's a good try, Dad, but I'm every bit a saiyan as everyone else! Biology isn't gonna be an issue."
"Yes, but you're too used to earth food, Cherry, I don't think you understand how tough Planet Vegeta's fauna-"
"Any tougher than a punch to the face?"
"What if you get poisoned out there?"
"I'll buy a senzu and I'm not dumb enough to fall for that. So Dad-"
"But-"
"Dad." Cherry's voice hadn't gotten any less upbeat but just a tad bit more affirmative. "I can create pretty much any snack from thin air! And when I told you that I'd be learning magic, you said—"Sure, go ahead", and went back to sleep. Ya didn't care...because you knew I'd be fine. There ain't nothing on Vegeta that I can't deal with, much less the food. Okay?"
"...Right, right," Inach grumbled, sheepishly looking away while stroking his beard. "But, er, Cherry? One last question...do you actually know how to go to space?"
"Wait, y-you don't just fly there?"
"Wait, y-you don't just fly there?"

'What would Dad do to try and get people's attention...'
"CITIZENS OF OUR GREAT AND MIGHTY CENTRAL CITY...good morning!"
High above the crowded streets was a tall, young-looking alien woman, cruising through the sky like a bird while yelling at the top of her lungs, trying to catch the ears of anyone listening. "SORRY FOR THE TROUBLE. Honestly, this is really stupid and I'll leave soon...BUT I REQUIRE YOUR ASSISTANCE! I'VE BEEN STRANDED FROM MY HOME—IN SPAAACE! AND WITHOUT YOUR HELP I MAY NEVER GET BACK!"
To Cherry's credit, her stunt was decently effective at grabbing many peoples' attention: no doubt, all the vicious scowls and tired groans were a sign that people were at least hearing her. "UNFORTUNATELY, I HAVE LIKE, NO IDEA HOW I'D GET BACK. AND THE INTERNET KIND OF SUCKS FOR THIS. SO UH..."
'Here's to hopin' no one starts to ask me for a freakin' flying permit or something...' she grumbled internally. 'Thanks, Derry.' "ANY ALIEN OR EXPERIENCED SPACE-GOER GOT SOME TIPS TO SHARE? LIKE...anyone at all?" Unfortunately, no matter how annoying she might've been, it was only in the moment: at the end of the day, she was just another loud salesperson, just with flight and a curiously active tail. Which were fun novelties, yes, but enough to say hi? Whatever attention that Cherry was gleaming from the crowds was fading fast...
"Er...I'VE GOT A GIFT IF YA HELP!"
