A low, electric hum vibrates through the concrete walls of the holding cell, smelling of ozone and old blood. Kaelen huddles in the deepest shadow, their thin frame trembling slightly, skin a roadmap of jagged surgical scars and chemical burns. Beside them, Salo is a motionless statue, eyes vacant and arms wrapped in grimy, blood-stained gauze. For the first time in weeks, the heavy steel door hasn't slid open for the morning's agony. There are no needles today, no searing probes—only a suffocating, heavy silence that feels more like a trap than a mercy.
