The cage was attached to a large, strange machine with a digging spike and a sloshing tank, and as the assorted men climbed back up on it, it rumbled with the motor coming on. Soon it began down its track, facing away from the city.

As for the creatures in the cage with her, they were damp- from the water in the tank -and unconscious, one of the men having attacked them. As the vehicle went along though, they started slowly waking up one by one, in different states of panic within themselves and with each other. One of them, noticing someone hadn't woken up yet, went over to him and gently shook his shoulder.

"Gobo? Hey... Gobo, wake up..."

Thankfully this brought him around, and he sat up with a low moan, putting a hand to his head.

"Ohh, what happened-?"
