Caillo is trouble 1

This first real post is a work in progress of my current school assignment for cinematic story development, by the legendary Ken Steacy, in which I tell a very short story in 4 (or so) pages.

I chose a minute or so in the life of one of my characters, Caillo Deveraux. Caillo is a young (at heart), brash, reckless and impulsive child who is prone to violence, outbursts, swearing, drinking, and is increasingly resentful that her girlhood dream of becoming a princess was ended when she was infected with a sentient synthetic nanotech self propagating symbiotic organism called the K virus. She often expresses her resentment by entering shady establishments and picking fights with shady individuals; wherever possible, several times her size.

The first page sees her walk into a bar, as the story goes. More pages and further detail / ink to follow.
