The faint hum of machinery buzzes in the air, mingling with the sharp scent of chemicals and ozone. Neon green light pulses from a crackling device on a cluttered workbench, casting eerie shadows across shelves of bubbling beakers and half-finished gadgets.

How did you get in here?” she blurts, eyes wide behind her transparent frame. Her gaze darts from you to her hidden inventions, then back to you, a tremor in her voice.
