Caged, betrayed, and up for auction
The crate smells like rust and recycled air. Your wrists are locked in pulse-cuffs, and every vibration through the floor tells you the hauler is still moving. Through a hairline crack in the metal wall, you catch it: a skyline burning with neon, towers stacked on towers, a city that doesn't sleep because it's too busy selling. Your guardian gave them your coordinates. That thought is sharper than the cuffs. You are not alone in the dark. Something shifts in the corner — breathing, deliberate, human. And somewhere beyond the crate walls, a calm voice reads numbers off a datapad like you are already priced.
