althea breathed heavily as she ran through the nearly empty streets, dashing through polluted puddles and litter that had been carelessly thrown about. she threw herself into an alleyway and crouched beside a large dumpster. althea sighed with relief when the kalons following her ran past the alleyway. "i'm gonna be okay, i'm gonna be okay." she lied to herself. "they'll give up soon." althea sighed. how did i get myself into such a mess? she wondered. they told me to stay hidden. why didn't i listen? this is all my fault. she criticized herself. althea wasn't really one to make poor choices, she usually had good judgement when it came to her own safety. but, she was curious what the outside world was like. althea was tired of cramming herself into a cabin for days on end. she didn't even understand why she was so sought after. "what's so special about me, anyways? aren't i just any other kalon?" she thought out loud.◯

althea awoke in a cage. she examined her surroundings. it appeared she was in an old warehouse, with the only light coming from streetlights shining through the broken windows. the room smelled foul, and mold grew on the floor of her cage. the kalon from before stepped into view. "it's a shame you woke up so fast. i suppose this is going to be harder than it should be." he said, picking up a scalpel from a nearby wooden table. althea looked at him, alarmed. "don't touch me!" althea scowled. the other kalon simply sighed. "i knew this was going to be hard." he said, unlocking the cage door and pulling it open. althea leaped up immediately, but with a single kick of the male kalons leg, she was pushed back down. a grim smile spread across the face of the mysterious kalon.
althea was now cornered in the cage. she couldn't push past her captor, despite her efforts. she was trapped. the other kalon made good use of this opportunity. he held her down where she was and he began to slice off a plant from her back. screaming out in pain, althea shoved the other kalon back, sending him stumbling out of the cage with the plant in his hands.
"damn it! now you've done it." althea yelled, jumping out of the cage and tackling the kalon. the scalpel and the severed plant were knocked out of his hands. "is that all you wanted me for?" she growled. "that's what they all want. nobody wants me for me. they want me for my so-called 'valuable parts!' what am i to you, a prize or a person?" the male kalon simply stared at her in pure shock. he definitely didn't expect this. "i asked you a question. answer me!" althea broke the brief silence. "a-a person." the other kalon said. "you're a person, m-miss." he stuttered.
"then why don't you treat me like one?"
