Megavolt awoke, startled, and imediately sat upright. He tried to sit upright, that is, but his head slammed into the top of something right off. It was dark. He opened his eyes. It was still dark. He squirmed and felt around the environment around him in a brief panic at the thought of going blind when he realized he was inside of a box. It was a very cramped, hot, damp box. A soft hum could be heard outside of the box, but that was about it.
His first thought were to blast his way out of the box, but when he tried he noticed that his power was completely drained. It was then that he remembered the herd of weasels that had suddenly burst into his apartment. Great, they burst in right when he was working on his ultimate invention! Now he couldn't even remember what that invention was supposed to be anymore!
"Coulda been a combination time machine/toaster for I know, now.." He considered his current situation.. Megavolt certainly wasn't strong enough to punch through this box, which he assumed was made of wood. "Geeze, it's like I've been swimming in a sea of suck lately. And where am I now? In a box that's in.. well.. it's somewhere, that's for sure."
Then he heard voices outside the box. He pressed the side of his head to the wood, trying to decipher the muffled voices.
"-really should get that looked at by a doctor."
"Probably."
"So..."
"I saw a movie last week."
"Yeah?"
"It was boring."
"Yeah?"
"Yeah."
"When's this plane land?"
"In about an hour.."
"What's the game plan, then?"
"We unload our cargo, throw it in the back of a truck, and take it to the boss' base. Then we get paid, we go out and make the merry."
"Alright. What're we gettin' paid this time?"
"....."
"I'm sorry, I didn't catch that.
"Five bucks."
"WHAT?"
"He haggled."
