Sun shines down on a nice bright day in New Eridu. People happily chat away on the sidewalk. A few birds fly overhead. A small figure walks through the streets, barely standing at 4'6'' (137 cm).

  She has short light blue hair, that frames her face. Bright blue eyes that gnce around. A button nose, and a face that shows little to no emotions. She has on a red tank top with a bck scarf around her neck. She's got bck fingerless cloves on with pstic over the knuckles. There's a tattoo of an Iris flower on her left shoulder.

  She's got on a pair of blue pants that cut off at her knees. Then she has a pair of rge blue boots that go up to her knees. Her pants are tucked into her boots. On her back is a rge bck box with a handle sticking out of it. There are also a few lines around her body. She has a nearly ft chest.

  Chauntao is not human, yet an Intelligent Construct.

  She calmly walks down the sidewalk, with a bnk look on her face. She stops as someone stumbles out an an apartment building, carrying a rge stack of boxes. The man then trips as he goes down the stairs and the boxes go flying.

  "Ohhh..." She says in a monotone voice

  Chauntao holds her hands out and the boxes neatly fall into them. She blinks a few times and gnces past the boxes at the man, who's rubbing his head. He looks up and sees Chauntao looking at him as she holds the boxes.

  "Oh, thank you!" he quickly gets up and takes the boxes from her. "You're a real life saver!"

  He quickly walks away, nearly stumbling a few more times as he carries the boxes. She blinks a few times, before turning around and walking away. She keeps walking unit she hears a meow beside her.

  Chauntao quickly stops as her eyes light up. She snaps her head to her left and sees a cat ying on a bench. She quickly zooms over and knees down to the cat and starts at it. The bck cat rolls on it's side and yawns. it opens it eyes and sees Chauntao's bright blue eyes right in its face.

  The cat lets out a loud meow and takes off running.

  "Kitty..."

  Chauntao gives chase after the cat. The cat leads her across half the city, and they end up in an alleyway. The cat sit on a high window ledge and licks its paws. She holds her hands up to it and makes grabbing motions. The setting sun shines into the alleyway.

  "Come here, kitty..."

  Suddenly shadows cover the entrance of the alleyway, making the robot look over. She tilts her head as she sees several Red Fang Gang thugs. They walk in and look down at her as she approaches.

  "Well, well, well." One of them starts. "If it isn't Chauntao, from The Red Dragons."

  "Hello." Chauntao turns to them and greets.

  One of the thugs pulls out a big bat, and taps it against his shoulder. "You know, your group caused a big mess of us recently, and now we want some payback."

  Chauntao blinks a few times. "Are you pnning to hurt me?"

  Another thug pulls put a knife. "Of course!"

  Chauntao slowly nods as her narrows her eyes. She then reaches behind her back and grabs the rge bck box, and presses a button on the side of it. It suddenly extend and a rge shield sms onto the ground, slightly taller then her. She then grabs the handle on the side of it and pulls out a short sword, with coils going up the bde from the handle, electricity travels around the coils.

  "I hope your ready..." Chauntao holds the shield to her side.

  "Uh oh..."

  Chauntao charges forward and sms the side of her sword into a thug, electrocuting him and pushing him into a wall with her shield. She then brings up her shield and blocks a bat from hitting her, before kicking the thug in the groin, making him fall to his knees.

  She then spin kicks the thug in the face, sending him and a few teeth flying. The st guy looks at his two friends, before turning tail and trying to run away. Chauntao pushes her feet into the ground, and jumps forward. She then sms her shield into the guys back, and tackling him to the ground.

  "Wait, wait wait!"

  Chauntao sps the guy in the face with her sword, electrocuting him and knocking him out. She looks at the three thugs, one of them moaning in pain as he holds the side of his mouth. She then looks up to where the kitty was, finding it gone.

  "Hmmph!" Chauntao puffs her cheeks out in a pout. "You scared Mr. Kitty!"

  She steps of the thug and puts her sword back into the shield, and colpsing it. Then she sets her colpses shield back onto her back; and exits the alleyway. She looks around, until a drop of rain hits her head.

  She looks up to see clouds starting to gather in the sky.

  "Hmmm... I better get home." Chauntao looks around, finding herself in an area she doesn't recognize. "Ohhh.... I need some hot water."
