Fire on Fire (Junkrat x Reader)

3- Caged Flames

I sat in the darkly covered cage as I could feel the small wheels on the bottom turn as it moves forward. The cage was small, big enough for me to stand, yet too small for me to comfortably sit down. My back rested on the cold rough surface of the steel bars as they dug into my pale skin. My legs lift slightly higher than my head as my feet planted on the other end on the cage. The bottom is stone cold, sending ice blades up my body. The musty smell of the cage, trapped by the cover, sinks deep into my lungs like a bad aftertastes. I gave up protesting against the small metal box a while ago, now I sit, pondering where the men were taking me and who that lady was. That menacing grin burning holes through my skin like a cigarette burn. Those eyes seemed so revolting yet so captivating it sent shivers down my spine. What the hell did she want with me, she looked at me like I was some toy, a play thing for a dog ready to rip my tiny head off with an explosion of fluff.

Lost in thought, I was startled out of it as the cage was being lifted into a massive truck. My eyes opened a bit wider and my hands race to the opposite sides of the cage from the shock. I could hear the men curse at the weight of my holding cell as they placed it down. The roaring engine flashed up as the back heavy metal doors slammed causing me to stand up, piercing at my sensitive ears and causing me to scrunch my face up a bit. I could feel the truck begin to move as I slightly stumble backwards from the motion.

~where are they taking me? I question myself in my own mind. I wasn't too startled as I have been driven to other labs or areas before, but this time felt extremely different, more so different that it was making my blood shoot through my veins. The drive was beginning to get quite long so I sat again for what felt like a few hours, until the truck came to a jolting halt as the engine was cut off. The doors swung back open with a loud screech and the cage was swept up, me along with it and placed onto the pavement.

Outside had harsh open sounds that roared thoughtout the sky. ~was I at an airport? I thought as I examined the sounds more carefully. The roaring engines became much clearer and the wind around became harsher the more I moved towards the sound, the cold air seeping it's way into my little home. The sent of dust and smoke filled the atmosphere making my throat gag. I was for certain that I was at an airport now.

Millions of thoughts rushed through my head, wondering why I was getting onto a plane and where they were sending me. I have never once been on a plane before, I only knew the sounds from when I was young. The excitement I got as the monstrous flying metal object passed over my tiny head, wishing I could one day be on one. But now I didn't want to; my heart pounded fast with fear and adrenaline causing my breaths to quicken.

~ are they transferring me to a new facility? Are they going to torture me more where I'm going? Whats going to happen to me? These questions flood through my head as the men boarded me onto the plane. As the giant door shut I could only hear the two men and no one else.

~strange. I thought planes are supposed to be filled with people. This must be a private one.
My suspicions were confirmed by a lady calling out to the guys as they respond with how amazing the plane was. Her voice matched that of the woman from earlier. My gut began to twist and turn giving me an uneasy feeling of dread. I knew that lady who came to see me either was helping fund the experiments or came to exchange money for me.

My mind told me to get out, for what was ahead of me was not pleasant. My body reacted on its own, standing up and beating against the cage with extreme force. I knew it was useless, but I needed to try. That woman was no hero nor is anyone coming to save me from my pathetic so called life. No, she wasn't here to help me or free me, she was here for much worse. I needed to get the hell out and now. I began to hit the metal walls with more speed as the woman that was talking with the guys, looked over to the loud crashes of the blindfolded cage, asking if it was secure enough that I wouldn't escape. The men reassured her as there was in fact no way for me to escape.
