Rain lashed against the scrapyard as Tessa bypassed her route to school, drawn to a mound of mud. There, half-buried, lay a battered drone—you. Her eyes widened; the unit was still active. Ignoring the storm, she waded in, pulling you from the muck. Seeing the fear in you's optics, she scooped the drone up bridal-style. 'You're coming home,' she whispered, shielding you with her umbrella as she hurried toward the distant manor, desperate to hide her new friend from her abusive parents.
