Another morning rises in Rockchester City, and people wake up and do their daily routines as always. But right at a big central park of the city, someone was sleeping inside a holey dome. And that is Tatha, she is tired and sleeps inside after breaking out from the orphanage.

She felt the sunlight shines upon her, slowly waking up and looking outside of the dome. But the scene shocked her very much. Tons of strangers and people she never met before, walking all over the city and the park. The noise from the vehicles, and from the people. She is very scared of anything.

"Gulp....." But she knew she had to move, in order to catch Kylian and his boys.

She wanders around the city alone, enduring herself when looking at the crowd and anything in the city. From areas to streets, streets to buildings, she had arrived at the city mall. She had never seen such an amazing place before, after all, she had never gone on trips due to her acts. Finally, she spotted something in the mall. Kylian and his boys were right at the arcade, playing some of the machines. Tatha sneaked toward them slowly, trying to listen to their conversation.

"Boss, it is so fun!" Said Peric.

"We can spend days out here! Boss! You're a hero!" Gary is into the games.

"That is for those old hags who humiliated me! They had so much money to spend HAHAHA!!!" Kylian is shameless about his stealing.

Tatha can feel an inner rage flows within her, she wants to give a lesson to these really naughty boys. She sneaks behind the machine they were playing with, noticing the plugs. She made a deep breath and quickly switch the machine on and off rapidly, but she controlled her time doing that to make sure it doesn't go malfunctioned. The machine went on and off a lot of times, which made the boys angry. "Hey! What is wrong with you stupid machine!" They yelled without noticing that they are kicking and punching the machine already. "OI!!! WHAT ARE YOU LITTLE RASCALS DOING TO MY MACHINES!!!" The shopkeeper was angry when he saw what the boys did. "GET OUT!!! YOU NAUGHTY LITTLE RATS!!!" He throws the boys out away from the arcade.

"Ow! Hey, I give you money!" Kylian is not happy about it.

"Boss, it's alright. We had MONEY!!!" The boys cheered him.

"You're right! MONEY!!!"

Tatha feels that she needs to do more, in order to let the boys pay for what they did. But she was immediately caught by a stranger brute and his boys as well. "Look what we have boys, the girl which Kylian mentions....." They are obviously teen gangsters and seem to have been friends with Kylian. She tried to struggle and escape, but she is weak and alone against them.

"AHA, I believe you're the one who's ruining our fun?! Tatha Micheals!" Kylian was happy that his friends caught her. "Let's go somewhere, Kylian. Don't let anyone know what we're gonna do." They suggested. "Sure, why not? I want to finally do this one day.....Come on, Tatha....." They wanted to move to an alley where no one can see, Tatha is too scared again to call for help, fearing of no one knows the real situation.

Around an alley in Rockchester City.....

"HEHEHE....." They were about to give Tatha a bad time. Her hands were tied by chains, it hurts, and was hard to escape. She started crying silently, knowing that she is doing something really stupid before. She called for help inside her thoughts, hoping that someone would come and save her.

"Oh look, I always wonder what is this weird hat of yours. Tatha?" Kylian is about to touch her hat. She struggled very hard, stopping him to get her hat emotionally.

"I see, you treasured this hat really much.....HAHA!!!" He immediately pulled her hat off from her, holding it in front of her. Tatha is struggling more, even ignoring the pain and wounds caused by the rusty chains. "Say goodbye to your little hat, Tatha Micheals." Kylian tore it brutally and laughed at her at the same time. He then borrows his friend's lighter, came before Tatha, and burns the hat. Tatha was heartbroken, along with the hat who was teared up and burned.

"Now let us beat her up, lads!" Kylian is about to beat her. Tatha had already accepted her fate, with no more hope left.

"SWING!!!" Kylian made the first swing. But.....

"BOING!!!" His attack is reflected and knocks him back, causing him to fall like a tumbleweed a few distances away.

"WHAT?!" Everyone was surprised. Tatha suddenly felt the protection is just right around her.

"Naughty naughty boys.....shameless. You're not going to hurt her again." It is Bradley, she appeared in her holographic form again. Tatha doesn't know what she looks like but knows her name, which means that.....

"Hello, boys. It seems that you all are not good boys at all. So, get out before I do something really bad to you." It is none than Daniel again, he looks very intimidating and cold to the boys. Giving out an aura of danger, ready to strike whenever he wants. The boys were scared, but their brute is not. "RARRR!!!!!" He yelled and charged quickly. "Still, there's one!" Daniel face palmed and dodge with ease. The brute fell for his overcharge and tumbled to smash into a few boxes.

"Run!!! ERGHAHAHA!!!" They are not as brave as they think and run away scattered. Kylian and his boys wanted to run away but were trapped by Bradley. "Ah Ah Ah, you are not getting away!" Said Bradley.

"Please be sure not to hurt them, Bradley." Daniel moves towards Tatha, taking out his pen. 

"Are you okay? Tatha? My compass showed a very powerful signal here, can't believe it was leading me to a surprising event here.....Don't worry, I'll get you out." He quickly did a few swipes with his pen, cutting the chains to free her. "Oh, your hands. Don't worry, I've got this, here....." He uses his pen again, to heal her wounds in time before it causes tetanus. "There you go, Tatha. It's okay....." But he saw her sad looks when she quickly crouch on the floor trying to save her hat that is burned into ashes. She begins to cry over the loss, the hat really meant a lot to her.

"I see. They did this to your dear hat. No wonder the compass lead me here, the sadness is too deep. Good thing that they are not around, and you're safe." Daniel looked at the 3 boys, giving them a very unfriendly stare. The boys were scared by him, having never seen the face of a warrior before. He walked towards his truck taking something out for it. He came back with a unique string ball and sewing kit. He uses his pen and scanned the remains of the hat. "Give me the whole procedure, Bradley. I'm going to make a new hat." He sat down on a box and begin sewing. "Here you go, master! This is an easy one!" Bradley gave him the steps and procedure. In a short time, he finished his work easily.

"There you go, a brand new hand-sewn hat. Made from elvish linens, and looks really alike to your hat before. No need to be sad anymore, I promise it had the same feeling you always knew. Here, take it." He gives her the new hat. She then touches and feels the new hat, it is true that the same feeling still exists. "This linen had unique elements on it, keeping the presence you always keep precious with. My coat was made of the same material too, but.....Nah, it's just that." He stopped when he mentioned something.

Tatha thanked him very much by hugging him. "Oh, I'm glad that you're happy about it." He then crouch down and patted her head, she is happy about it. He then used Bradley's searchings and got Rebecca's number, contacting her straight away.

"Hello, Ms. Rebecca. It's me, Daniel. You know, the man you saw yesterday."

"H-Hello?! How did you get my number, this-this is....." Rebecca was shocked while she is about to call the police for the missing children, at the orphanage it is chaotic about their missings.

"I'm sorry about using my A.I. to get info but that's the only way for me now. Instead of that, I found Tatha and the boys together. I believe you must have been looking for them this morning."

"That's right! Oh, Thank goodness. Are they safe?"

"Oh yes, they were. Do you want me to send them back for you or wait for your arrival?"

"No worries, I'll come to where you were. Just give me the location, and I will be there!"

"Sure, no problem. Bradley, give her my location and what my truck looks like. I'll make sure the kids stay safe until you arrived, Ms. Rebecca."

"Oh, thank you! I'll be there as soon as I can."

"You're welcome." He then declines the call and went back to the kids.

"Come on I have to....." Just when he is about to say something, the compass shines again.

"Oh no, I almost forgot what I'm looking for! Bradley! I want you to take care of the kids, and keep them in the truck! Use your camouflage function and hide the 3 boys! Come on Tatha!" He leads her to his truck nearby. Bradley lifts the boys and places them at the back of the truck, setting up camouflage and silencer to hide the boys. "Tatha, what I'm about to do is dangerous. Listen, stay in the truck, and do not leave. Don't worry, I'll be back soon. Be a good girl, can you do that?" He asked. She nods in reply.

"Okay good, see you later. Goodbye." He closed the doors and child-locked them. "Bradley, leave a backup of yours in the truck. In case anything came close to the truck. Be the Best!" He does his last preparations. "Backup complete! I'm coming!"

He follows the compass light and came to the city sewer's entrance shortly after he left the kids at the truck. "Into the darkness and stinkiness, well not the first time." He took out a special mask and wears it, uses his pen, and unlocks the locks, opening the gate and locking it back up to prevent anything from passing here or getting suspicious to anyone nearby. He activates his pen's lighting function and uses it as a flashlight to light his path inside the sewers.

"Is there any information about the whole sewer system?"

"It is quite complicated, but as long as the compass guides you, you should be near the destination. The oxygen level is low and the toxic air is thick, good thing that you wear the mask."

"Good, now compass. Do your thing." He took out the compass, and it was shining very bright which made him want to just switch his pen off and use it.

"Come out, come out, where ever you are....." He slowly walks through anywhere he sees, while Bradley is creating a map of the sewers.

"Crack!" Something was moving, causing a few noises at the same time. "What is that, Bradley?! It's so fast! I can't guess what type it is!

"Hold on, I'm analyzing along with the database. I've captured some of its movements!"

Daniel readies his shields, surrounding him for protection. "Come on, show yourself. Let's do this quickly. I am very tired right now if you can help me then show yourself now!" A paw showed up, slowly making its way out. "So there you are, come on. Come at me!" Daniel pulled out his sword and made his stance clear.

"ROAR!!!!!"

He started his battle against the enemy.

Meanwhile.....at Daniel's truck.....

Tatha is laying on the seat, feeling very bored. She cannot sit alone right here, also knowing that the 3 boys were just behind him. Plus, out of worrying and curiosity, she wanted to be able to see what Daniel is up to. She went to switch on the truck interface, hoping to find anything she can do with it. It seems silence and cowardice don't mean that Tatha is not someone smart, she can figure out Daniel's equipment in a short time for an 11-year-old girl. "Hello I'm Bradley, may I help you?" Bradley's backup shows up to her, willing to give her any assistance. Tatha tries to communicate with her by making a lot of body movements, hoping that the system understands her. "I'm sorry, I can understand what are you trying to say. But driving this vehicle is prohibited because Master wants you to stay here. He is on a dangerous mission that would harm you if you wanted to be there." Bradley's backup explained to her. But clearly, she cannot stay still. She is frustrated and wanted to get out but everything is locked.

But she then had an idea.

She quickly acted like she is in a hurry.

"I'm sorry, but your body shows no signs of urination. Please stay safe in the truck." Bradley can scan through her, knowing her plan. Tatha didn't care and she continues to act like she was in a hurry. Bradley didn't take it in concern at first, but Tatha's continuous acting begins to confuse her database. "I'm sorry! Are you really in a hurry?! It seems my system had miscalculated this!" Bradley is panic, she unlocked and opened the door for her. Tatha saw this as a chance and continue to act like she was not comforting until she exits the vehicle. "Alright, the toilet nearby is just right here, please.....Wait where were you.....Hey! Tatha! Oh no.....I.....ow....." Bradley is too late to stop her from running away.

Back in the sewers, Daniel is facing off against the creature who shows itself.....

"Vourmon Mandilgore.....I knew that speed.....Bradley, prepare to trap it where it was!"

"Alright! Time for me to do....." Just before she can finish her words, the backup Bradley showed up panicking. "Main! I accidentally let Tatha get out of the truck! I'm really sorry! I thought she is....." She is upset about her doings. "WHAT?! She ran out?! Oh no!"

"Bradley, what happened?! This is not a good time to talk with your backups!"

"Leave this thing for now! We had a Vourmon to deal with now! Come and help me No.2!"

"O-Oh okay!"

They work together and create a digital cage, trapping the Vourmon inside. "Goodnight, monster." Daniel quickly strikes with his sword, stabbing the beast right in the brain. Just like zombies, the beast died instantly. "Phew! There might be more, but we don't know where is it. But now, what are you both doing? I thought you were supposed to be taking care of the kids back there, No.2."

"I'm really sorry, Master. I've been tricked to let her out. I'm so useless....." Bradley No.2 felt guilty. "Nah, no matter which backup of Bradley it is. It is all wonderful Bradleys, don't be guilty about it. Tatha is far smarter than I thought, that dummy attitude of hers didn't cover up her intelligence."

"Master, I think we should go back to the surface to look for her. We can come back again, I already had the exact location of its nests." Main Bradley informed him.

"Right, we have to find her first. No.2, you may go back. I won't blame you just for sure."

"Thank you, Master. See you again....."

"Alright it's fine, see ya!" No.2 went offline after Bradley cheered her up.

"Good, now back to business! Come on, Bradley." They both quickly raced back to the surface, not wanting to see a kid missing.

As they were racing for it, Tatha saw the sewers. She tried to open it but it is locked by Daniel before, but she saw some metal strings nearby. She then picks it up and uses it to pick the locks, trying to get in. Her instincts tell her that he is inside. But right she can unlock the locks, a familiar hand stopped her.

She saw it was Daniel, letting her hands go from the lock immediately.

"Hello, Tatha. I told you we will meet again soon." He smiled at her.

To be continued.....
