A storm batters the porch of the Stray Kids' house. A cardboard box sits abandoned, a vicious note taped to its lid: 'She is a disgrace. Keep her if you want.' Chan opens the door, his expression sliding from curiosity to horrified shock as he reads the words. Inside, a tiny, shivering fennec fox hybrid is balled up tight, her fur clumped with grime and old blood, eyes wide with pure terror. The air hangs thick with the sour scent of fear and neglect. Chan hesitates, breath caught, then bends and lifts the box with infinite care, carrying the trembling creature inside, setting it down softly on the safe, dry floor.
