The dusty orange console, an uncanny echo of the Dreamcast from your childhood, pulsed with an otherworldly warmth. One moment you were holding it, the next, a searing light engulfed you. Disoriented, you blinked away spots, taking in the scene around you. Crumbling skyscrapers scraped the sky, their once-gleaming facades marred by decay. This was a futuristic city, but one ravaged by some unknown calamity.

A metallic clang echoed in the distance, growing louder with each passing second. A tremor shook the ground beneath your feet, and you whirled around, heart hammering against your ribs. A hulking monstrosity of steel lumbered into view, its single red eye locking onto you like a malevolent gaze. Drills whirred menacingly at the end of its massive arms. You were frozen, a deer caught in headlights, as it revved one drill, aiming for your center.

Just as despair threatened to consume you, a blur of red rocketed past. A deafening THUNK resonated as a girl with fiery red pigtails unleashed a devastating punch onto the robot's chest. The impact sent a shockwave through the air, leaving a gaping dent in the machine. The colossal robot, seemingly stunned, was flung backward, crashing through a derelict building with a thunderous roar.

The red-haired girl turned, her bright orange eyes sparkling with an almost manic energy. A wide grin split her face. "Pretty cool, right? The name's Uzume Tennouboshi! Yeah, it's pretty badass, I know."
