3	After the events of Chrono Trigger (DS ending) and Chrono Cross, Guile stays at Termina and is a frequent customer at Dragon's Tail Bar. However, he actually stays there for eavesdropping. He is hoping to earn money this way (through adventures or such). He needs money to fund his journey to find Janus, his master and his childhood friend.

5	Soon, Guile overhears about a fierce band of raiders called 'Radical Dreamers' lurking around the forest near to Termina. He first hopes that WantedPoster will soon by nailed on the bar, so that he can be a BountyHunter. However, he quickly concludes that this will attract many rivals, so he decides to find another way to earn money: offering his service as a bodyguard to a rich man at Termina.

12	!!''Searching for My Master'' provides examples of:
13	(Beware of unmarked spoilers for ''Chrono Trigger'', ''Chrono Cross'', and the fanfic itself.)
14
15	* AscendedExtra: Guile. His screen time is very minimum in the original ''VideoGame/ChronoCross'', but here, he is the main character. Plus FirstPersonPerspective.
16	* BeyondTheImpossible: Guile doesn't like the word 'impossible'. Also, he tends to put logic aside to make the impossible possible.
17	** Proven when he ''catches a hammerhead of a hammer that is as big as himself and struggles to push it back with his bare hands.'' The wielder is ''a giant who can lift this big freaking hammer without breaking a sweat'', yet this LongHairedPrettyBoy BlackMage ''can stop the hammer from crushing him to the point the giant chooses to pull back''. This is when his back is aching due to the said giant hammer damaging his spines. Ted directly says ''this is impossible''.
18	** [[spoiler:After defeating the said giant, Guile tries to lift the corpse and fly back to Termina. He fails, but ''he manages to go against the law of physics by putting logic aside through sheer determination''. It doesn't last long as Rai's DynamicEntry interrupts him, but still.]]
19	* CliffHanger: Chapter 2 ends with Guile's rod broken in the middle of a fight.
20	* EyeScream: Guile stabs Ted's eye with his broken rod.
21	* FirstPersonPerspective: Told in Guile's/Alfador's point of view.
22	* FirstPersonSmartass: Somewhat.
23	* ImpaledPalm: Invoked. See LodgedBladeRecycling.
24	* LocalHangout: Dragon's Tail Bar.
25	* LodgedBladeRecycling: Invoked. Guile deliberately lets Rai [[ImpaledPalm stab through his palm with a knife]] so that he can use it. [[spoiler:And he kills Rai with it.]]
26	* RatedMForManly: Although it's rated as T, the violence and the display of sheer badassery make it manly.
27	* ShoutOut
28	** [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann "Who the hell did he think I was?"]]
29	** "It was unnecessary for him to know that [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann putting logic aside to make the impossible possible]] was something common for me."
30	* SuperDetailedFightNarration
31	* TrueCompanions: Guile (Alfador) and Janus.
32	* UnderestimatingBadassery: Gogh underestimates Guile and considers him to be an incompetent physical fighter. Truth? See [[Awesome/SearchingForMyMaster here]].
